[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da-pharoah:
whats up good folks of the sgs3 thread!! So I was thinking about comming over to vzn via way of tmous and maybe picking up this phone. However I read on lots of places that the bootlaoder is locked. So here is my question, I havent found a hack yet to unlock the bootloader, so how is it that yall have unsecured kernels for the sgs3? Am I wrong to assume that the bootloader would not let custom kernels be fully installed? or does installing roms via odin get past the bootloader? forgive my ignorance ive had the g2x (then the hd2) for the longest time and havnt had to deal with locked bootloaders... anyone care to shed some light on me? Please and thank you.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danben7:
I don't live in the US but apparently the Verizon bootloader is the only one that is locked. So don't go with them.

I had no idea the phone companies in America had such a ridiculous monopoly on the system over there, it's very foreign to me. I just got the international S3 from the UK.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da-pharoah:
Yea it does suck for sure. But yea I think your right. And that's been the whole consensus everywhere I read.. No sense in volunteering myself into a crappy position when the same phone is with tmous and unlocked and my contract is done. Ima call them on the morrow and see if they can give me a better deal.

I am new to rooting, and decided to root to try out WiFiTether... Decided I don't really need it.

I rooted through Zedomax's method: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1671577

I have no real need nor desire to remain rooted as I don't really do much modifying of the phone or custom ROMs anyway.

So what's *my* method for getting rid of root and applying the OTA?

Can I just UN-Root through SuperSU then run the OTA?

Thanks all... And I hope you don't consider this a duplicate post, as I have read all the other OTA/Root posts so far and could not find anything that was really related to my scenario of not wanting to remain rooted...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] awromero:
I unroot through SuperSU and the run the OTA but failed. I follow qbking "How to Unroot / Unbrick the HTC EVO 4G LTE - Latest" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NChdbyaHy3k and after this run the OTA without issues.

I believe I read that you have to have the stock recovery to flash the update.

If you don't care then just go for it...you can always use htcdev if you need to in the future
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] donatom3:
It sounds like you still have the stock recovery so you should be able to run the ota.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gmtom1:
I'm in the same position as the OP and the OTA didn't work for me. Just does the red triangle and stops. Rebooting pots me back to the same status, no update
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] cgendreau:
Well, I did the OTA and it all seemed to work fine... However, I cannot seem to uninstall SuperSU.... Other than that I *think* I'm good.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] Bowsa2511:
Now that we got two beautiful new (OG) Roms, AOKP, and CM9, is there anyway to port S-beam? I think it might be frame-work dependent, but even though the Jellybean "beam" is improved with bluetooth linking, it still pales in comparison to wifi-direct transfer speeds.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rathga:
anybody know? Perhaps some app that does it?

Basically I have to do a lot of long conference calls for work, and generally speaking you need to mute yourself when you're not talking so the line stays quiet. It is a bit awkward putting the phone down, waiting the screen to turn on and jabbing the mute button on the screen each time you want to say something quick. Being able to mute via a hardware key would therefore be extremely useful but i can't seem to figure if it's possible!

thank you
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ctomgee:
Use a headset control app, like Jays, from the Play Store, and wired headset. One of the controls is double-click of the headset button to mute/unmute. Or you can customize the button to mute/unmute depending on how you click or hold the button, or whatever.

This does not work. In call controls aren't affected while music controls can be customized . Any work around?

Hello everybodies,

I want to give my Samsung Galaxy S2 to my mum after buying myself a nice and warm S3! ^_^

Here's what I'm planning to do:

1/ Wipe with CWM: /cache, /data, /system, dalvik, battery stats, sdcard and external-sdcard, so really everything!

2/ Reboot into Download mode afterwards and flash a stock ROM

My question is: can I do that? Or if I wipe all this stuff I risk not being able to boot in Download mode?

I'm currently using OlloS2 LPX based ROM.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pelpa87:
it shouldn't give u any trouble
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immortalis:
Download Mode is part of bootloader, so don't worry and wipe freely :good:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raptor.X:
Thank you guys!

I know I could find the answer by myself, but I heard that the ROMs LQ5 and LPM have a chance to brick the phone. Therefore, which is the latest safe stock ROM?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pelpa87:
U could tru any aokp based rom...they are all safe...

If not search safe ics kernel in search tool and u ll find.some post about wich kernel is safe and.wich not

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pelpa87:
I did some research for a friend, that needed an ICS sammy rom and just for sum up, any ICS sammy version released or built befor july are safe. Since 9 of july samsung included the erease_emmc_cap lineain their Kernels. so...

the problem is triggered when u want to make a wipe/factory reset. if not u can use them without problems
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raptor.X:
Yeah I also read that ROMs LQ5 and above have a high risk to brick the phone if any wipe is used with CWM using the CF-Root kernels of these ROMs. Is this what you're talking about?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholas1520:
I've actually formatted the internal memory many times when changing ROMs. The bootloader and kernel is on a hidden partition.

Well yesterday I updated my GN using CWM from 4.0.4 to 4.1.1 takju.

This morning I rooted and flashed TWRP wiped cache and dalvik cache and flashed franco.kernel r217 512GPU

every time phone reboots does not turn on and start a boot loop.

I did a battery pull and now is runing but it rebooted 3 times before started properly

Is this an issue of my phone or with the kernel?

I do hope you can help me...

I got a new tablet this weekend and wanted to root it so I went over to another site. Got a little assistance but not much. Then I did the unthinkable. I spoke with a well known Dev from here who offered asistance if we could get him one of the tablets. No big deal, 10 people pitch in 15 bucks and done deal right....I posted a thread about it and got BLASTED in my private messageing for insulting the dev community there.

And one more thing as if its my Micromax A73 Nandroid Backup i dont know if it contains my IMEI numbers or not so Devs request you to check that also. If it doesnt contain my IMEI then any one can use it as a backup if required.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] androidmando:
Hi there,

I've just recently installed CM9 on my Galaxy S2 Skyrocket. I, somewhat stupidly, only backed up my contacts via Samsung Kies...I am not exactly fond of storing my information from my phone with my Google account.

Is it possible to restore my contacts to my phone? Even if I can only load the contact file in Kies to see the numbers, I'd be happy. I just would rather not go back through my old phone to find my numbers. It'd be a hassle.

Of course, if it isn't possible, there's no real problem.

Thanks in advance,

Phil.

P.S. Yes, I did search, but I wasn't able to find what I was looking for.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] UZ7:
I usually just export to storage and it will save a 00001.vcf file on your sdcard. I just open that on CM9 or any other ICS rom and it worked fine restoring my contacts.

As for restoring contacts from Kies to CM9 im not sure about that, havent tried it.

The calendar sync used to eat data. Was a pain in all the wrong places. LOL!

Do what I did. Go to fb and export all your birthdays to Google calendar. (Do a quick Google search if you're not sure how to).

Else you can use something like HaxSync to sync fb related stuff (contacts, birthdays, events). I use it to sync my contacts.

In normal use you can't even tell the difference so I guess that's a good thing. It is just more noticeable when tapping harder than usual on the screen.

I do see what you mean but it is only detectable (just) when you know exctly what to look for. As you suggest, it's definitely not an issue and is most likely to do with internal configuration.

We're not quite a representative sample so 'normal' is dangerous in this context, but if we are experiencing the same thing - and I think we are - then I would say it it is reasonably predictable given we are tapping an object of non-uniform density.
