How do you find out if you get the update?

Yeah not sure I'm already on LG8 but it's annoying keep popping up saying update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tarheelsmj12001:
Yea im already on LG8 also, but i am rooted so im not sure if that has anything to do wit it.

Im not a fan of this new update. I use to never loose my data but now I do all the time. It sucks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] shiftr182:
I updated to lg8, had major problems with pandora, then reverted back to the LEN radio/modem and pandora works great again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tarheelsmj12001:
Im on Blazers v1.6
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SensationalAdrian:
Possibly bcuz LG8 is 39.7MB in size.

What is the size of the upgrade is it lg8 or no
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MikeyLee:
I'm on Blazer and have not had this update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MoparSRT4:
I'm on Blazer 1.6 as well
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rgregg504:
The update is lg8, blazer 1.6 is still lg2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tarheelsmj12001:
I already updated to LG8 n im on blazers 1.6 so its strange that im still getting the update but its fine.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rgregg504:
Your baseband may be lg8 but when you flashed blazer your Rom went back to lg2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mrg02d:
I just got this phone today and had this update get me right out of the box. I also rooted the phone afterwards so I'm guessing the update won't hurt anything.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tarheelsmj12001:
Nah I flashed LG8 after blazer 1.6
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] trehouse:
Im new to this phone and using Blazer, do I allow these updates? I don't want to lose root or anything.

[HTC One V] JalmiNyondong1933:
Which tutorial did you read? Try the noob one:D. Flashing custom ROM and custom kernel will help you play games smoothly even without overclocking. Once you have successfuly unlock bootloader and install custom recovery, you can freely install custom ROM which is extremely fun:)

[HTC Rezound] rezin:
im about to ship my rezound back to verizon for a hardware problem, will i be able to restore a nandroid i make on the new (refurb?) rezound, or will it suffer from some sort of digital schizophrenia and eventually kill its self?!?!...ok kidding but seriously will it have any issues since its technically a different device?
[HTC Rezound] blestsol:
Depends on which recovery you're using. Cwm works normally and twrp and amon ra as far as I know takes you renaming your backup folder in your twrp folder to your new phones name.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
Yes you can take a nandroid from one device to another as long as they're both the same device (eg rezound to rezound, nexus to nexus)

Is there a way to disabled this notification? When I'm at work I don't have good signal and this always shows up.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] evoer:
Try this:

Check your roaming settings-

Mode: set to auto

Settings: all should be checked

Guard: NO checks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ls1ssz28:
Just tried this and still have the notification...

I have anycut and I am rooted if anyone can think of a way to stop this from popping up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Sunsparc:
Yeah I disabled the guard also and I still get the notification also. It's a minor annoyance for me. If it can be removed, good. If not, I'll live. :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] evoer:
Ok so I have tried every possible combination of checking and unchecking the roaming settings to no avail, yeah I'll live, just frustrating that I am not able to stop it from popping up. Googling for an answer seems everyone that goes in and out of roaming has the issue. One forum called it a known bug in the software, if so maybe fixed in the next update
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tnvento97:
It's especially aggravating because I pay for unlimited nationwide roaming which apparently I'm not getting. Guess I'll call sprint tomorrow and see what's up. Gotta ask them about my airave anyway. Doesn't seem to play well with the s3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] poit:
interestingly enough, I haven't seen this notification in a while. Did it go away with LG8? I didn't change any settings here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wolfeyes30:
Yes its annoying. Have it too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Visionikz03:
Yeah it's definitely not a check/uncheck thing... prolly a smali edit somewhere in framework... and yes it's still present in LG8
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
I can probably remove it, however, I don't roam enough to test that it is working. Someone will have to verify.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MikesDroid:
I don't mind.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
What is the exact message it gives?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MikesDroid:
Here's a screen shot of the message. The exclamation point in the notification bar is due to the message. Thanks for your hard work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jbadboy2007:
Yes please and thank you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tft:
this phone has a lot of annoying notifications. samsung needs to start putting a setting to disable some notifications.. low battery, lost connection, found wifi network, no signal, my dog took a poop, etc.. im constantly dismissing popups throughout the day.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
I have solved this issue.

Will be posting a how to and flashable zip in the development forum.

Hi.

I just installed Reaper 3. Its the first ROM I have tried other than the factory supplied one. I cant seem to be able to select internet passthrough on this when I plug in the USB lead. Is it there somewhere that I cant find or is it not available in this ROM. I need it from where I am as no data or wifi but PC has wired internet.

Thanks for any help.

Keith.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
This feature is available out of the box only on Sense based ROMs

But check this, you may find it helpfull
[HTC Desire S] keithscarfe:
Oh, ok thank you. I need this for how I use my phone. So I need a sense based rom then. Any suggestions which to go for?

I am going to try Endymion v3.5 and cooldroid v61. I am not sure what is the difference between sense 4 and 3.5 but I guess the bigger number (4) is newer / better, so Ill try that first.

Cheers.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
I am pretty happy with Fallout. But you can try both Sense 3.5 and Sense 4 and choose according to your likeness. There is also Sense 3.6 ROM which is more or less like Sense 3.5 but ICS (newer Android version)
[HTC Desire S] eyahl:
Another solution: I have wired internet on my notebook at home. I'm using software to make my notebook become a WiFi hotspot. Pretty easy.

Edit: btw, using fallout too.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TBayTom:
It says at the bottom of the instructions "Note: Do not install on variations of the S III other than the I9300 model. It will not work."

I believe there are other apk's out there that should work with our version though.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ghost77:

Would any of our devs be willing to somehow tweak this .apk file to make it work with our i747 version?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dLo GSR:
it won't work because the LTE variants don't have the same files needed. this has been covered countless times in this forum already. search. you will either need to buy a code or get it from AT&T (i've gotten two from AT&T already for both our SGS3s)

[Captivate General] -SGA-:
Lately I have been thinking of a DIY home waterproofing for my phone... I've been throwing around a couple of ideas after seeing the Liquipel website. Surely there must be something we can do to water-proof or water-resist our Cappy!?

I have a couple old phones which I am willing to experiment different processes on, and then dunk into water.

Does anyone have any ideas?
[Captivate General] -SGA-:
My first thought is covering the insides with some kind of varnish with the phone taken apart...
[Captivate General] silvertag:
Varnish even if its less flamable when dry, may cause overheating. If you wait a few years this will surely become available to the public.

http://www.diginfo.tv/v/12-0065-r-en.php
[Captivate General] ThreeofNine:
IMHO, with today's technology you can only make the Captivate water resistant ,,,,to a point. Due to the open headphone jack, micro USB connector, volume keys, power button, and removable battery - all with metal contacts - water proofing will not work if the phone is completely soaked. A better solution would be a one piece case that allows full use of the screen, volume, and power buttons. Plugged in headphone and usb connection would only work with the case off. But I don't know how big the market would be for such a case..Good Luck
[Captivate General] leezrd:
Not to mention if u coat cappy it would over heat because water proof phone are not made to dissipate heat the way the cappy is
[Captivate General] RockRatt:
Liquipel uses nano technology to coat the inside and outside from water. It repels liquid hence the name. I am not sure why I didn't follow through with sending my sgs2 to them when I first got it since they are only 5 minutes from my work. My next phone will get it for sure. Their technology coats it so well that even the liquid sensors will always stay white and not get wet. They showed how to at one of the electronic conventions when they completely dunked it under water and let it sit there. I think I read they even took pictures with a phone under water while it was dunked.

Amazing how little you really know! There are many companies out there, that "waterproof" your electronic toy using nano technology! Google it and see for yourself!

sorry im hopeless at explaining.

when i go into recovery mode, usually i press "choose update from internal sd card" but today when i press it i get update.zip and not a list of everything on my phone. and a android with a triangle in his gut. if i install with rom manager it works. but not cwm.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonpaslim:
External sd, that is stock recovery. You must flash speedmod k3-9 kernel or notecore kernel to have CWM recovery before you can flash zip files.

Do not use the CWM zip there is posibility of hardbrick.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aussiesausage:
ive tried everything. when i press external it says there isnt anything. and it was working fine for ages but now its decided to have a dummy spit.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonpaslim:
When you press external sd the file you looking is also in the external sd or it will not register.

By the way do not use the CWM zip its bad for your note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CJSlim79:
Sounds like you either OTA / KIES updated and lost your recovery -

Flash SpeedMod / NoteCore via PC Odin should sort it out...

Definitely sounds like stock recovery

NOTE: DO NOT use Old CWM.zip method to inject busybox - Install a safe kernel via PC ODIN and then use Triangle away

Thanks for all the custom roms and development that's been going on in this forum since the desire S release.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaneydroid:
Anyone know of any hidden menus or settings or anything to calibrate the gyro/accelerometer whatever permanently?

This is my second N7 and I have to hold it pretty much vertically before it will rotate and games such as Asphalt 7 veer off to the right, I have to tilt about 45 degrees left to get it straight.

I have set in motion an RMA but judging by the amount of problems I'm loathed to send it back and get another duff.

The screen has a tiny amount of lift and barely noticeable so if there is a way to fix the gyro I would rather do it myself.

Tried many different compass/spirit level calibration apps but they only sort it out temporarily.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghost010:
There isnt a option in the device to do that.

Though:
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaneydroid:
I did try that app at the time and it would sort of fix it for a while, even after turning off the device but the problem came back.

I went ahead with the RMA and the replacement was and still is perfect.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] djphillyphil101:
can a sd card be damaged if its not removed while you gain root or cwm or flash a rom? i have a sandisk 64gb class 10 that use to work fine before i flashed my S3. After i flashed freeSG3 my sdcard wouldn't mount, keeps saying sd unexpectedly removed. it came preformatted as exFAT and worked fine on the stock tw rom. i stuck in my computer and it said it needed formatted so i reformatted as exFAT and copied a couple files to it. soooo.. im assuming it isn't damaged since it works in my computer. still no luck getting it work on my phone though. I tried my other sd's to see if it was the rom maybe but they work just fine, its only this card. im confused to why it isnt working now, but use to work but still works on my computer. ive only had it for a couple weeks and luckly i got it off of amazon so i can still return it. i've tried rebooting my S3, i even tried to mount in it my vibrant after i reformatted even though i know the vibrant doesnt suppport 64 gb.. it said damaged sdcard. ill give it a few more days of research before i send it in for a new one, im hoping i can get it to work again. my other option i was thinking about doing was to restore my phone back to stock to see it would work again. i dont really want to do that but i think i will for the hell of it before i try returning it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jdpdata:
Your SDCard is not damage, as I've mention in your other thread you are probably running a custom kernel that doesn't support exFat.

Either reformat your card as FAT32 or NTFS or flash back to stock kernel that does support exFat.

exFAT is a proprietary Microsoft product. They don't release licensing to open source software like Android. Apparently Samsung as some kind of licensing deal with Microsoft to use exFAT that's why the stock kernel will work with newer SDCARD formatted as exFAT.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] darkphantom:
I am going to piggy back on this thread and say that I have the "unexpectedly removed" bug :(

S3 running stock 4.0.4 - it works fine with a 2gb microsd, but I just bought a 32gb micro sdhc class 10 and it just won't read.

Tried exFAT, Fat32 - NTFS doesn't read on the card.

Suggestions?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cnraghu:
I was using 32gb card earlier on Stock Rom-unrooted, rooted, RcMix and Xquisit roms without any issue. I know you would have tried but have to ask, did you try copying any data onto the card on a PC? May be some bad sectors are causing it to not recognize.

Can you tell me if CWM or TWRP recognize the card?

I don't have any issues with all my cards - 16gb, 32gb and 64gb ultra sdxc.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] darkphantom:
I've been putting off rooting it since I was content with the factory rom, but I guess I have no choice. I'll check CWM after I root it.

However, I can't copy any data onto it. Also, the phone recognizes the card but it keeps unmounting/remounting it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] darkphantom:
how can I tell if CWM sees the card? Even after root, the phone sees the card, just can't copy anything to it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrbmg:
Did anyone ever have a fix for the "unexpectedly removed".

Had the problem before. Reformatted sdcard and odin back to stock then flashed cm10 with no problems.

Recently went back to TWFrosty, and the problem exists again. Could it be from going back and forth between TW and Aosp?

My card is fairly new, about 2 mths? Maybe 3.. Weird error, it shows my external sd card blank, then all of the sudden if I leave it be all my files will show back up. Also it has went so far to ask me to reformat the card with my phone. I just avoid the answer, and eventually all my files come back. When I'm near a computer and it does this, I'm able to still see all of the files on the external sdcard on my PC, just not on my phone.

Thanks for all the help..

Crazy. Let me know how it goes.. aosp is working for me for now. We shall see..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] chucktdriscoll:
For large (32/64GB) cards, if you're going to use an AOSP ROM, you have to format to FAT32 (or ext3/4). TW based roms will format to exFAT if you format it inside the phone. The drivers for exFAT aren't included in AOSP though.

I have rooted my phone:

1. You can block adds in apps with AdAway

2. You can make nandroid backups in cwm and backup apps + data with Titanium backup

3. You can increase volume with Volume+

4. You can wipe or freeze apps and widgets that you do not use.

5. Yoy can flash mods and themes for odexed roms

6. You can flash custom rom`s or kernels.

I you want to unroot use Triangle Away to reset the flashcounter , flash a stock rom and do a data/factory reset and your back to stock
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bretto_aus:
And 7. You can use the Six axis app to wirelessly connect your PS3 control and therefore utilizing the usb out to connect via hdmi to play games on your big screen :)
