[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SouthPhilly:
Your worries are over on the 12th...

http://www.androidcentral.com/sprints-samsung-epic-4g-touch-appears-poised-ice-cream-sandwich-week

It's FF18... Wasn't FF18 the build that introduced that pesky eMMc/data wipe/brick bug thing!?!?

Looks like "Friday the 13th" could be one of those days...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] husker apollo:
that's weird, ff18 is def the last release and that's been out for at least a month. so how exactly does a "source release" work - would people be able to pull something out of the official OTA ff18, or is still a waiting game w/ sammy-sprint?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SouthPhilly:
I'm not 100% sure... I'm thinking it may refer to the kernel more than the rom its self. But again, not sure.

Still willing to bet that anyone of the custom roms based off of the FF18 leak will still bury what ever Sprint and Samsung put out.

Is there something wrong with my phone if it heats up no matter what custom ROM i use?

I tried Primadonna Sense 4.0a and its super hot

Then i tried new Miui by mikroms and also heat i had to go back to stock for now should i restore with stock img and reroot again? :confused: :(
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Stock battery?

If so - sorry, but, blame HTC. The stock battery is unforgivable and crap.

If using an aftermarket battery like an anker or mugen, then as long as you aren't overclocked it shouldn't be too bad.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jdmboy1188:
So my only problem would be the battery? cause it feels hot around where the Sim and SD card are at? so if i buy one of those anker or mugen u think that would fix the issue?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
Read through some of the battery threads here, you'll find quite a few first-hand accounts of this problem magically vanishing after replacing the battery with one that wasn't designed to break your device so you buy a new one.

A crappy battery I could forgive HTC for, they make phones, not batteries.

One that physically damages and ages the device into a premature hardware failure? Shame on you HTC, that's slimy business practice.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jdmboy1188:
Ok i will try that thanks alot for your help hopefully it fixes the problem. :good:
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
The stock battery is worthless. Like blue said, as soon as i threw my anker in the heat problem went away.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
I think that's more of a processor problem. Are you overclocking a lot or for extended periods of time?

I've never had a specific overheat issue due to the stock battery
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
Stock battery with stock speeds overheated while playing games or during heavy multitasking.

Last night i noticed my anker was dying faster than it had ever died so when i went to turn the processor down some i noticed it was on 1.5 performance. Then it hit me that earlier that day i had been running linpacks and forgot to turn it back down and i didnt even have a heat issue then. I usually run underclocked around 800mhz-1GHz and always have because i dont need more than that. So the stock battery is what causes the over heating.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Overheated or got warm? Warm does happen when you use your phone a lot
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] strapped365:
120+ is in my eyes overheating, because back when i had the OG evo anything over 117 would damage the phone. So its a pattern with HTC to overheat phones. No big though my problem is solved, but for other users who have the same issue across multiple forums/sites they should know how to fix the problem.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jjbz:
on the stock battery my phone's gotten to 122+ while usb tethering and fried one of my sd cards. t-mobile ended up replacing the unit and giving me a new sd card.

the new phone/battery didn't help the overheating problem so i bought a mugen battery. since switching to mugen, it hasn't gone past 114 and battery life is much improved :D

---------- Post added at 08:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 AM ----------

also, my htc amaze had a less intense version of the overheating problem until i replaced them with ankers. so yeah, htc has really sucked with their batteries lately. i never had these issues with the g2, just their dual-core phones.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] 2G1J:
I got my phone into the 140s once while driving through New Mexico and North Texas earlier this summer. Set it on the dashboard for a good 30 minutes while playing music lol. I had screen caps, but my sd card didn't make it.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jdmboy1188:
Thanks

Thanks for all the responses guys i didnt want to take risk on getting new battery and still having the problem so i called T-Mobile and they sent me a replacement phone. Now the only thing im a little afriad of is my s-off i already flashed the stock image and it seems the root is gone..would they say anything???
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] 2G1J:
They more than likely won't. I went through like 5 G2s one month due to faulty hardware and returned each one of them rooted running ICS lol.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] jdmboy1188:
lol alright then i guess ill ship it back
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] gtmaster303:
Highest I've been is 123F. Phone got very hot almost to the point that I couldn't touch it...

ALWAYS SET CPU GOVERNORS FOR HIGH TEMPS TO PREVENT DAMAGE!

I swear that should be a rule or something...

Please can someone explain why android commander is allways reporting me my HOX has no root access?

This happens to me on every rom I've tried yet.

Or is this related to S-On?:confused:
[HTC One X] DevicesNow:
Try rooting a few times, make sure busy box is installed and use different methods to root if available.
[HTC One X] leventccc:
Connect your phone to your pc and execute these

adb shell su

then you should get this # if you have root
[HTC One X] tamahouse:
!!!Solution

"The Root access : No because" you'r using the stock rom which have a "secured adb" (even when you'r rooted)

Download the "adbd insecure" in this thread and "Enable insecure adbd", problem solve:

problem not solved for SM-T900

ADBD Insecure says me

Binary : Insecure

USB Debugging : Enable

But always Root access : No in Android Commander
[HTC One X] popeye2014:
I installed the latest BusyBox, then re-rooted and now it sees root. :D
[HTC One X] Calimero Oeuf:
You re-rooted after Busybox, so you rooted a second time ?

and now you have Root access : availlable in Android Comander ?

You have the galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 SM-T900 ?
[HTC One X] popeye2014:
No, not the Galaxy but was having the same problem with Android Commander not recognizing root. Saw the post above about re-rooting and also applying the adb insecure app. Did both and I mean just doing the same root process without un-rooting first. I use Super One Click for my phone. Anyway, still didn't work.

So I downloaded BusyBox Free from the playstore and installed it. Ran Super One Click again, also doing the Shell root, and it worked! Don't know if coincidence or just got lucky but posted hoping it might help others.
[HTC One X] Calimero Oeuf:
I already have Busybox installed and ticked option in adb insecure app so I will try to re-root my SM-T900 but I don't believe it'll work
[HTC One X] ertioct:
It worked on Huawei Honor 6 L02 with root, busybox + adbinsecure. Thank you all for the tips.

Same issue in my side

I am using Xolo Q900 and installed MIUI custom rom for the device.

But When I connect android commander its showing no root access.

I have tried the Insecure ADB but it failed to patch. showed an error message "Patching not done"

Also showing USB debugging not enable but I have enabled it and its showing active in my phone.

When I am opening titanium backup in my phone Its showing I have root access. I have also installed new version of Busy Box but still no heal.

Can anybody help me on this?
[HTC One X] soumyaxoloq900:
It worked

After installing the ADB Insecure [http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=26885208] I can now see the Root status OK in Android Commander.

I was making mistake in the Permission Manager in MIUI rom. After allowing the ADB Insecure app from there I was able to patch.

Although You need to restart it again after exiting from the app or phone restart.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] ponyboy82:
Anyone know if this is legit? It sounds ok, but no reviews, and the seller has mixed reviews...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] itsjusttim:
Great price! I trust Newegg alot but still hesitant to pull the trigger.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Wond3r:
Its the Samsung adapter and the reg price is $49 so no worries about the product.

And newegg is a reputable seller. No worries there either.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zmore:
Can't tell for sure, since Newegg didn't list the manufacturer part id (EPL-3FHU) in the details, but it does look very similar to the $42 one on Amazon.

Newegg photo:

VS Amazon's:

It actually looks more similar to the Galaxy S2 mhl adapter (the image was just rotated). The S3's is a little bulkier and rounded.

Galaxy S2 mhl adapter:

99.5% sure it's NOT legit. :(

I gave it a 1-star review and notified NewEgg about the error.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] punzada:
Keep in mind this cable is not shipping directly from NewEgg. They handle other companies much like Amazon does, here is the page for the store that is reselling this: http://www.newegg.com/theWireless

Some people complain of wrong items/things not fitting. It's a great deal if it's true but I would use caution.

edit:

http://www.amazon.com/Micro-USB-Samsung-Smartphone-conversion-official/dp/998951089X

Also check this out, picture of the adapter for the S2, looks just like the one in the newegg photo (matte and not shiny), like I said, i would use caution.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jubmasterflex:
The issue here is that it's not actually being sold by Newegg. Newegg pulled the same junk like BestBuy and started offering 3rd Party sales incorporated into their site.

I'm 99.9% sure this is just an adapter for the SG2 (and other similar variants).
[Galaxy S III Accessories] LowSky:
I miss the old newegg that just sold electronics, most of it computer parts. Now newegg is just like Amazon. If they are the seller you know 99% of the time it is a legitimate item.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] aklyz:
Just got off the phone with a rep from theWireless since I jumped all over this before reading everyone's response. They did confirm that the list was not correct and it should have been for the S2. They are pulling the listing and cancelled my order, best service I have ever gotten for a product I was returning/cancelling.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zmore:
They still haven't updated the product description.

Also, FWIW, I left a 1-star review yesterday letting everyone know that it was for the S2 and not the S3, and NewEgg basically ignored me with this email reply meant to limit negative reviews.

NOT for S3

The model number Newegg gives for this is EIA2UHUNBEGSTA-BBB, which is the model number Samsung gives for the 5-pin S2 version of the MHL adapter. The S3 version has model EPL-3FHUBE. The model number and the photos match the S2 variant, this is the 5 pin adapter.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Krazy_Calvin:
I ordered this before reading the rest of the posts sadly. After I read the rest of the posts I just went ahead and ordered one of the samsung adapters on ebay so it will be a total of 30 bucks. I am glad I read the rest of the posts before I got this in the mail to find out it was the wrong thing.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattNoblett:
Hi all,

Just updated my SIII with the OTA update (Android 4.0.4) and I now have a random icon on the status bar I can't get rid of? (See image)

The icon is in the top left of the screen (Looks like an Info sign crossed out?)

Galaxy S III Screenshot

I've looked in the manual but there is nothing written about this icon? Anybody have a clue what it is? Or how to get rid of it?

Thanks,

Matt
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Olywa123:
It just means you have notifications turned off (they changed the icon to match the one you turn it on with in the notifications drop-down and hence it's not in the manual):)

Only way to remove it is switch notification back on.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattNoblett:
Thank you very much for that! :laugh:

I also have an icon sticking there but mine is a grey square inside which there is a minus. I find it so annoying! Is there a way to remove it? What does it even mean?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Olywa123:
dasistsparta, that actually sounds like the old icon for notifications (assume you haven't updated your firmware to XXBLFB yet) :)

Try turning notifications on and see if it goes away.

Why are u trying to get stock recovery? you can flash a stock rooted rom, and you will probably get stock recovery or flash stock rom, you will lose root but not S-OFF.

Can't you do anything in the stock recovery? Worthless recovery :thumbdown:
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stiflingcobra:
It's only used by ota updates to update the phone. Same with all stock recovery....

You just need to extract it using adb now then you can reflash your own favourite and post the extracted recovery here...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
I came across this idea, why don´t u find a RUU that works for u and extract the recovery.img from there? It should work....

Wasn't aware you could do that with an ruu... OK will have a go...
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glevitan:
Yep...if you have the .exe file u can do it...there´s a way to do that. If you have the .zip file then just extracted and find the recovery.img file....

Hello fellow SIII owners are you tired of the same ol boring font well i have great news for you and its called a flipfont! What's a flipfont you might ask well a flipfont is an .apk file that you install just as you would any app and bam you've been flipfonted!!! I will be adding serveral fonts to this thread so keep a look out.

Lets get started i really hope i don't need to explain how to install an .apk but i will if needed (let me know) so you've got your font you want installed how do we apply it? here's how screen shots below.

1.download whatever font.apk you want and throw it in a folder on your SD card.

2. use any file explorer my FAV is root explorer and navigate to where you put your font.apk file

3.click to install the font.apk file boom done installed ready to rock.

4.now we need to go select the new font we just installed so here we go!

5. hit menu/settings/display/screen display/font style and select your new font select yes to confirm and that's it now we can enjoy our new font cheers
