[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jgrimberg1979:
The problem with that is it takes a lot more that 3 days or a new Dev to do some of the things that I have seen in the international forums. They have made tweaks that cm or aokp has but only its tw based. Its the best of both worlds.

I don't know why everyone gets so whinny when someone speaks there mind! I am not saying that I don't appreciate what our devs do bc they rock, some more than others. I am just trying get people interested in the i9300 forum bc the more people that are and the more the post over there the better chances we have getting some of those tweaks and roms ported to our phones. I have seen it first hand with the AT&T sgs2, once purple started going over there posting, the devs started porting. All of a sudden we had the international sgs2 and AT&T sgs2 merged by a single package and someone with an AT&T version could flash 90% of the stuff in the international forum without a hickup. I would love to see that happen to the Verizon sgs3.

Also what's up with everyone in the general forums hitiing the thanks button for every little thing ?? It kinda takes away from purpose of thanks? You thank somebody who does something for you or helps you in some way. For ex. "My name is Billy " oh "thanks" .... "the weather is nice" "thanks" .... "I think the bootloader is just fine locked" "thanks"...."kexec is just as good as an unlocked bootloader" "thanks" ?? = value of "thanks" going down.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ricky babalu:
By means of an HTC unlock tool or through DEVS?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nosympathy:
Problem I have, is that I have been spending the time, understand how hard and demanding it is, and it makes me truly appreciate the devs that are here.

You speaking your mind comes across as though you want someone to just hand everything to you without working for it.

You want something, go make it happen, don't sit and hope some developer will make it for you. Want us to be like the at&t version, go make it happen.

As I said before, I said I would never make roms, came to this phone, was unhappy with the current selection, so I made my own. Sat on it three days before posting it. Did something many great devs before me couldn't.

The attitude you have, of not being able to learn it in a few days, is the reason you don't have what you want. You can't always want everyone else to do things for you, because eventually everyone else will feel the same way and nothing will get done.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jgrimberg1979:
Again, I was trying to spark interest and give people ideas. If anything we can get ideas from them. We could learn new smali tweaks from them and at the same time they could learn from us.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MrJobs:
Honestly this phone is awesome even with a debloated stock rom. I just use Nova launcher since TW doesn't let you create drag and drop folders.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fenixnr:
HTC Unlock isn't a full unlock to the guy talking about bootloaders getting unlocked on verizon. The Rezound had a s-on bootloader, that you could dev unlock which was still a pain to install things, then someone made it s-off. Now people do it all the time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] restinbeast:
I have International and VZW versions and despite missing LTE, I have not used the VZW for one second. It is basically an unlimited data placeholder at this point and I think I might just sell it.

Getting sick of Verizon in general to be honest. I think I might just let my old contracts run out and go elsewhere.

HSPA+ on the international has been basically fine.

Hey guys, I mistakenly erased some videos/pictures from my phone, is there any way to recover them? My phone is not rooted everything is stock and it's running Jelly Bean from the OTA update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zeinzu:
Don't think there is, sorry.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] fairyshacker:
No, Bad Luck !!!

Mount ur phone to pc, and try running any recovery software....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] efrant:
That will not work. You cannot mount a GNex to a PC so the recovery software will work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dragn4rce:
Uh sorry buddy Ur screwed. The only possible solution you could have is using Root Explore. And that requires. And I'm not even sure if that would help

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] killerskincanoe:
picked up a six foot HDMI cable today from walmart. (belkin)

first time seeing my phone plugged into a HD tv... and WOW! super awesome.

I have a few questions for those who use this feature a lot.

1. I see that I can add apps and shortcuts to the tv launcher app..... am i able to remove them? or remove the ones that are already there... haven't yet found a way to do so?

2. Anyone able to stream from SMB share using XBMC? i'm unable to get it to connect even though i have the user/pwd and ip addy correct. p.s. my share shows up and is accessible via ES file Explorer and Connected Devices.

3. I'm using DICE player to play my downloaded torrents on my pc via my ION .... now on my htc flyer... i have no problems viewing these files.. but on my ION sometimes the video will start and play for about a minute and then DICE player just crash/disappear and take me back to ES file explorer anyone else with this issue? if so find any workarounds?

4. in Tv Launcher app there is an icon to connect to facebook mobile... i clicked this the first time and it brought me to my facebook page but with notifications from people not in my friends list.. i checked on the computer and these pokes/notifications weren't ever there on my computer or in my notifications...<---this really freaked me out a bit...

5. anyone got the PS3 controller to connect to their ION? if so... gotta list of games it works with?

a. also anyone able to use the remote control ok to control the ION? my universal remote for my TV doesn't seem compatible...if u got it to work what kind of remote are you using?

excited to have a phone capable of HDMI out.. looks AWESOME!

thanks for any info in advance :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
1. I'll have to try mine again to tell you how to remove icons

5. Yes I've used the PS3 remote via USB. Dead trigger, shadow gun, reckless racing 2 work with the controller. If you root and use the sixxaxis controller app you can use any game pretty mmuch and use the controller over Bluetooth.

Used a couple Sony remotes and a Samsung remote with no issues. My cheap dynex TV remote wouldn't work.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] killerskincanoe:
did u need to install the ps3 controller app or was it completely plug and play... i don't have one here or i'd be testing it right now :(

edit: and by USB i assume u mean u plugged into your dock... i don't have one of those so i guess i'm SOL till i get root eh? or a dock? lol

thx for the quick reply
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
Yeh with the dock I didn't need to use any other app for games that support gamepads. With no dock you will need a USB adapter to plug it directly in or root to use the controller app.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] killerskincanoe:
wow yea what kind of adapter would that be? micro usb to mini usb?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Spectre51:
Um for the PS3 controller should be either a micro to mini cable or regular to mini I think.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] earbrain:
Hey bro, how much was that cable from Wally World?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] killerskincanoe:
40. They had a 3 footer for 15. Actually I saw in my gamestop a 6.5 footer used for 19.99

Sounds really like you have no idea what you are doing... not to hurt your feelings... did you wipe and if so what did you wipe? What rom did you flash? Can you access recovery? Is it not a better idea to wait and confess what you did and let someone that knows what they are doing fix the problem? Have you plugged it to the charger?

i tried to charged it nothing happen.... i tried all of possible solution to fix it but its all failed and i cant access to recovery
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
Then you should do nothing because there is nothing that can be done if you cannot access recovery its very simple do nothing wait till your brother gets home let him fix it you will only make it worse maybe even unrepairable that's my advice

This is what I would do hold the power button down for one minute and plug it to the stock wall charger and leave it alone
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHONGKIDSTRZ:

maybe is should follow your advice thnks again but if you have someone knows how to do it

Thnks guys to all advice i will try it right now but last thing how many hours should i leave at charging
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
I would do an overnight charge hope it the battery will recover
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHONGKIDSTRZ:

I hope too it recover coz this kindle is inportant to my brother coz his gf give this to him i wish its work
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
okay now that you are trying to charge lets find out some details:

did you get fff installed when you rooted?

this would be either yellow triangle or white kindle blue fire logo....

this is what you use to access recovery... if you have yellow triangle hold power button till it turns orange this will take you to twrp...

if you have white kindle blue fire depress the power button a few times till you get a boot menu select recovery this will take you to twrp...

which ics did you flash?

please try to answer these questions...
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHONGKIDSTRZ:
Nope i forgot to coz all i want in that time is to download android market so forgot to download fff and i charged it over night still nohing happen do you have another solution
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CHONGKIDSTRZ:
and i installed ics 4.1 pls help me the pooch im willing to pay someone who can fix this coz my brother will going home soon
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
You don't have to pay me or anyone else for that matter...

Here's the problem...

You have drained the battery down so low it won't boot..you have no bootloader that gives you easy access to recovery...you can't access recovery...it will not power on...you have a broken system(very likely) .....

All those things against you we need to find something that is for you...

When you hold the power button down 1 min then try to power it on what happens?

When you plug it into the computer how does it show up in device manager?

Telling me that you flashed ics really means nothing to me cuz there are many ics you need to be specific about things and my questions need solid answers or no one can provide you with any solid advice...

What is your native language?

how this thing help to my problem
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparkplugDev:
I'm pretty sure this requires a factory cable or using the usb short trick to force fastboot. anytime you don't have a bootloader and you are stuck in a bootloop without being able to access recovery or contact the device using adb, fastboot is your only hope. At least that has been my experience.
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
that has yet to be determined did a little driver work and some testing might just be a matter of fastboot flashing fff we will see;)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thepooch:
your right it will require a factory cable but there is adb and shell but it wont allow access to recovery or resetting of the bootmode unless I am missing something...

any advice would be fantastic...without a factory cable this ones out of my league..
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sparkplugDev:
I completely agree, pooch.

To the OP or her brother:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20380015#post20380015

This member spends his time making factory cables and selling them for no profit, simply to help the community. Using this cable will force your device into fastboot mode and you will be able then to send commands via fastboot to the device as well as install twrp and fff properly. I actually don't remember the exact commands off the top of my head but I know that pooch and a few others can assist in that department. Once TWRP and FFF are installed you can proceed to install ICS properly or you can wipe and install the update.zip from amazon's website to return the device to like-new condition. Since no backup was made before attempting to flash ICS to begin with, these are your only options I think. You could do a nandroid and then have a backup of data.img and do a little swapping of things to bring things more to where they were before this happened but I can't think of any other way. additionally, if your brother likes the stock UI more than ICS/JB then modaco might be a good alternative so he can have the google play store as well as the amazon app store, as an option. I have had my kindle since christmas, last year and even though I loved it out of the box, I could never imagine going without the google play store again. Good luck to you, and let us know how we can help as you proceed

[Xperia Play General] Trickee360:
hey all,

I recently got a nexus 7 and I want to tether my sweet, sweet verizon 3g to it with my xplay, but none of the apps I try work. Barnacle doesn't even show up in in my n7's wifi networks list, and the Google Play release of Wifi Tether for root shows up but my n7 never connects and the app inevitable encounters errors on my xplay. Anyone have good recommendations?

I have a an R800x with a locked bootloader
[Xperia Play General] bluedory:
I have the AT&T Xperia Play version and not rooted. I use a free app called FoxFi to Bluetooth Tether (Bluetooth DUN) to my Nexus 7. On my Nexus 7, I have PDAnet Tablet app to catch the bluetooth tether. Works great and easy to setup!

Hope this helps :)
[Xperia Play General] brsingr:
I tried that with my r800x...and I still get the stupid, "you need to pay an extra $20/month to use thethering" garbage....what is the use of bluetooth thethering for?
[Xperia Play General] Trickee360:
I ran into that exact problem with wifi tethering in foxfi, too. Still looking for a fix

From what I can tell, bluetooth works for a basic internet connection (web browsing, etc) , but you can't do anything that requires a "wifi" connection, like downloading apps or streaming from google play services like music. It's a blessing and a curse, because it doesn't provide a full networked experience, but it saves you from potentially running through your data quota on intensive tasks which, if you have a 2GB plan like me, can be handy
[Xperia Play General] Xperia Player:
I'm grandfathered into a Verizon Unlimited data plan, Once I got rooted I downloaded Barnacle Tether ( for free ) and set my phone up as a WiFi hotspot. Tested it at school back in the day and people had no problem connecting to it, had an iphone 4 and an iphone 3GS connected at the same time.
[Xperia Play General] UndisputedGuy:
Can't you just turn the phone into a WiFi hotspot from the settings?
[Xperia Play General] Xperia Player:
Nope, no such feature, and the root free tether apps require you to buy a tethering plan.

...Barnacle Tether... Install it.
[Xperia Play General] UndisputedGuy:
Settings ----> Wireless and network ----> tethering and portable hotspot?
[Xperia Play General] narflynn619:
Yeah I agree with KindaUndisputed. I have that setting too and have used it before to let my friend download apps with his phone because he's got no internet. :D
[Xperia Play General] Xperia Player:
I don't have that option O.o
[Xperia Play General] Trickee360:
Verizon locks out this feature. There must be a way to circumvent it, though
[Xperia Play General] Xperia Player:
Actually, after flashing CM9 RC2 I know have those features! Tho I haven't used them yet cuz like I said, I use Barnacle tether.

Bluetooth tether sounds like an interesting concept tho, I'll have to test that out one day.
[Xperia Play General] Rogue Leader:
Its not locked out it just tells you you have to pay for it. But after that ruling by the FCC maybe they will stop this, I don't know.
[Xperia Play General] brsingr:
We can hope so. :)

Can I get a link to the fcc thing?
[Xperia Play General] Kaiser Wilhelm II:
I used the Barnacle WiFi tether app on my old Orange SF running 2.1 which didn't have any kind of built-in tether functionality. It worked extremely well.
[Xperia Play General] cj360:
They did, FCC made Verizon pay 2.5 million. So now there's no extra charge unless you go over the amount of data you signed up for.
[Xperia Play General] 216Monster:
I saw some users report FoxiFi was not workin on Verizon, I set foxifi up on my Dads stock non-rooted Droid Pro and it works just fine. It should work on our R800x's as well. .
