[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cmotion:
Hey all,

About to sell my rooted Thunderbolt and just wanted to ask a few questions about wiping it clean. So I posted it on Swappa as rooted with SkyRaider Zeus 1.3, and the person buying it didn't say anything about wanting it unrooted or wanting me to flash anything else on there (smart!). So I am including the microSD card, which is easy enough to format after I've transferred what I want onto my laptop. My question is about factory resetting the phone. So there is the Factory data reset option under SD & phone storage menu in settings. Would I use that? Or would I wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik etc. from my recovery? If I wipe the phone using the recovery, can I re-flash the Zeus ROM, and then shut down the phone afterwards, so that the first time they turn it on they have to enter all their Google information, etc? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
Just do a clean flash of the rom and don't finish the startup. Even if you let it boot into the homescreen they will still be able to log in after they try to access the play store.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cmotion:
Sounds good, thanks! Also, just wanna make sure by wiping the SD card, it won't mess with anything recovery related, right? Obviously I don't care about nandroids that I'll be deleting, just don't want to mess with any recovery functionality by formatting the sd card. I'm on TWRP if that matters.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] disconnecktie:
You may want to keep the img of it on the root of the SD card there just in case. It may be useful if there is an issue. I don't know how it could be but I would just to be sure. The recovery should be there regardless.

[HTC One S] frettfreak:
Its been a little while since i started noticing this so i am not sure if its the rom i am on (kinda doubt it) or just an update to chrome, but i used to be able to fling to the bottom or top of a web page with ease in chrome. Now it seems that the "fling" option has been removed or is just not working ????

I am fairly certain that its something that will need to be fixed from google but just incase i am on Axiom S 2.8.1b and fusion kernel.

is this bugging anyone else or am i the only one? I cant take it anymore!!!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrush:
Just flashed my friends evo with Tommytomatoes classic ROM. Things were good for a bit... then all hell broke loose. It wouldn't recognize the external SD card at all. I tried to boot into CWM to flash another ROM but everytime it tried to boot into recovery it would just buzz a few times, go black and the green light would remain blinking... had to do a battery pull to be able to restart. I'm at a loss. Can't get into recovery... and the computers we plug into won't recognize the phone at all. Won't charge either... any insight?!?!?!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] c.robb:
Download new recovery, verify md5, place at root of SD card using a computer, then boot into bootloader,(power and volume up). Then click bootloader. It should take a second and then search for the pc36100.zip you placed on the root of SD card. Then follow on screen prompts.

You may just have a bad SD card. I would pull the SD card out of the phone and try to boot it. if it wont, try to boot it into the bootloader. Hopefully that works, not really sure what you may have screwed up if it still wont boot up and a PC wont recognize it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ember1205:
Hi, all.

I have run into something today with my AT&T Note that I haven't seen before. Quite a bit of searching found me this thread: xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=30229221

The icon I'm seeing is exactly as described in that thread, but the fix for the Galaxy S III is not applicable to the Note.

AT&T, ICS 4.0.4 official, not rooted or modded in any way. No new applications installed today.

Does anyone have any insight?

For those that don't want to read the other thread (I wish you would though): The left-most position of the status bar now has an icon that resembles a solid square with a dash in it. The left edge is "pulled out" to the left forming a sort of arrow point of the left edge. It's white in color (maybe light gray?).

Pulling the status bar down to see the notifications shows nothing associated with that icon (it isn't in the list). If anyone at least knows what the phone is trying to tell me, that would be a start...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rangercaptain:
Some running app?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ember1205:
I should have posted that there are no active applications on the device, the icon doesn't match that of any installed application, and I don't see any running processes that aren't really for the "system" itself. On the Galaxy S III, the icon apparently is an indication that notifications are turned off. What does that *mean*? Is there a corresponding "state" on the Note?

I'm getting beeps and chimes and icons in the status bar for things like email and text messages... So, it wouldn't SEEM to be that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Shdowalker:
Perhaps a screenshot so we could see what exactly you're describing? As I have no clue from your description.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jmelendez1:
It may have something to do with a downloaded app. Did you try to click on it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ember1205:
This is why I asked folks to read the other post...

It is NOT clickable. It's a white square with the left edge "pulled" out to a point. There's a dash in the middle. If you look at the AT&T user manual, you will see the EXACT SQUARE I am describing, but it has a PLUS inside. That square is a "too many notifications to show" icon. This is slightly different.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] android4545:
Is it there when you have other notifications? It could mean you have none
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Shdowalker:
I read the post and made no sense to me why you'd have that issue on the Note, hence me asking for a screenshot. Perhaps you need to check out AirPush Detector or Airblocker to see if maybe something is accessing permissions unseen. Just a thought.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ember1205:
Here's a slight update...

I rebooted the phone and it hasn't come back since in this form. I *have* seen the "there are more notifications than can be displayed right now" icon (white square, pointed left edge, plus sign in the middle) a few times. But this one (exact same except minus sign instead of plus) has not come back.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] android4545:
That's weird, if it comes back maybe ask att, if your still under warranty you may be able to just get a new one free :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ember1205:
I actually tried them first... They have no clue and didn't even offer up the fact that there is an almost identical one indicating too many notifications. Then, when I asked for information to contact Samsung, they said they would text me the phone number (I asked them to). The rep was nice enough to text me my own phone number.

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

I have a big problem right now with my SIII....

I lost my gsm signal twice by using cleaning kernel script by mistake belongs to Galaxy note N7000, I have backup ESF folder and I'm restoring it in each time I lost my signal, for my surprise I lost my lock screen and it's not activating (not showing) and when I left the power button pushed to get the menu of power, airplane mode and reboot the phone power off, then I went back to Recovery Mode, wipe the dalvik, the cache reboot it and nothing... I formated everything and followed some steps how to recover the lock screen back with nothing happened like these commands throw ADB shell:

- type into the command:

su

echo -n ON > /efs/imei/keystr

sync

and I made the file keystr manually with command ON with no result.

And I checked setupwizard.apk in my system folder and still there, I have flashed stock rom since I'm on Omega v12.

Also, when I boot up my device with wifi On I'm facing Factory mode ON and disables the wifi but I can activate it back with no issue.

I have followed this thread for Factory mode ON with no result:

[Q]How exit FACTORY MODE ???

I have tried everything I could and found on google search and still I have the issue.

I flashed [Rom]GT-I9300 Resurrection Remix JB v3.0.3[10/08][AOKP JB PRE](AROMA+OTA)

and the issue disappeared, lockscreen activated and power button functioning as it should be, with jelly bean

rom my problem no more there but with ISC roms failed again. Also, I made double check on hidden feature

which called shutdown.app by typing in dialer *#7594# code and it's unchecked.

So, any suggestions ?

Edit: Btw, sorry for my bad English.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arsaw:
Have you try format system partition before flashing stock rom?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ivanlmh:
Formatting system will most probably solve the issue. I would recommend doing that whenever you are switching between different android systems as it is always cleaner
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
Formatting system or anything else will not solve your issue. It is causes by a problem in your efs folder. This happened to alot of people on the S2 when upgrading to ICS, including myself. Took me months to finally figure it out.

Anyway, first step. Using root explorer or similar, navigate to your efs folder, then the factoryapp folder. In there check if you have these 2 files - factorymode & keystr.

If they are there click on them and open in text viewer. In both you should see the words 'ON'. If not, reopen in text editor and key those word in, in capital letters then save.

Try this and report back.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ierrors:
Yea I have formatted all partitions but I think I installed kitchen rom after that.

I have installed stock rom once only.

I have them both with word ON in each one and keystr file in efs/imei with word ON as well but neither the lock screen activated

nor power button functioning as it should be!!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
This is the exact same issue with the S2. When you lock the screen it goes straight to the home screen and holding the power button for a little powers the phone off.

Anyway, below is what my factory app and imei folders look like. Maybe move the keystr file from the imei folder to the factory app folder and test. Might need to reboot.

On the S2 some people had ON in those files but had to change something with hex editor. Can't remember what exactly.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ierrors:
I have efs backup before the problem came up. imei folder doesn't have keystr but still not working.

What I 'll do now, I would restore jelly bean rom which lock screen nd power button are working normally then I'm gonna back up

EFS folder to my external SD then I 'll replace it with the one on the ISC rom. I hope this works.

Edit: I checked with Hex as well and made it as instruction but no luck.

Edit2: I replaced EFS folder w/ the one on jelly bean rom but also no luck!!.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arsaw:
What apps are you using to backup/restore EFS?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ierrors:

here is explanation on youtube:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iY9cDkj4CCw

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ierrors:
I solved the issue, put EFS folder from jelly bean rom and across check both factorymode and keystr in efs/FactoryApp, they were OFF

I wrote ON on both and problem solved and no more keystr in efs/imei . Thanks for all of you guys for your help.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
Good stuff. Glad you got it sorted. Did my head in for months when I had the S2.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ierrors:
Yea I about to get crazy of this one cuz I had it for a week and all posts talked about efs/imei/ folder which no more keystr file inside it in S3 since the whole issue was in efs/FactoryApp.

Hello I saw a guy selling an unlocked att galaxy note and I offered him my HTC one x if he added some cash he said he would do the trade no cash involved. Now is this a good deal I have the HTC one x international variant and now with the note 2 coming up in about a month I have my doubts. The reason I'm trading is because I cant get data to work with my HTC one x on tmobile and I like the 5.3in screen. So would it be a good deal and is flashing tmobile radios easy?? And how's development? Thanks

Edit and flashing roms on HTC devices is hell since their not s-off yet

And is there 4G on ics?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Sharky157:
1) there is 4g on ics rooms

2) development is awesome tons of ICS roms and a couple jellybean ones as well.

3)not sure about T-Mobile radios but if you use the search there's a lot of info about it.

4)It's only a good deal if that's what you want and then move forward and don't look back wishing you got a better trade. Besides soon as you root and flash you'll feel like you snookered the guy in the deal :D

Hope this helps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LittleRedDot:
The note is a great phone and the development is pretty freakin awesome, I'm coming from an HTC and I remember the development for that device was off the charts. One thing I will add o the above poster is build quality, while the note is well made I know first hand that the HTC One is built like a beast and is tough as nails, the note is gonna be a little more dainty if you could imagine it. You're definitely not going to want to go naked with this phone. I also remember that depending on the recovery flashing stuff and making/restoring nands and just doing general maintainence in the HTC was a lot easier, but that is really a comparison between Amon Ra recovery and CWM for the note. But TWRP is comparable to Amon Ra.

As far as development there are things that are gonna make the trade a good idea on your part... For one there is beats audio available for the note as well as google now, and you're going to be happy with the spen suite (if you choose to run touch wiz). And I don't think you're gonna have trouble getting data to work on TMob. Not to metion the stable JB roms available is just too cool.

I think this is a good trade on you're part, you're gonna love the super AMOLED 5.3 screen and the 2500mA battery, as well as the Spen. But if it were me I would try to hold out for the note2, simply for the larger screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jaimesco12:
yeah guess im doing the trade then :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] testulous:
Just a friendly word of advice, get the N7000 if you have a choice. Mine gets about double the battery life compared with my other Note, the i717. And the button kicks ass.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jonahng1994:
yes that is a good deal. Galaxy Note is worth more, the roms are very good on the galaxy note. you can unlock it for Tmobile, the radios are pretty easy. The only thing is that the Note 2 maybe releasing some time. You may want it, if so you can get more cash for the note than you can for a One X. 5.3 in beats everything!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] simpl3lang:
im in a debate right now. i have i717 but i have the chance to get the n7000 if i want to. is the 7000 really that better? hows the data speeds on at&t?

edit: oh a few days ago my phone was the s2 and i guess it had decent data speed
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] LittleRedDot:
I've heard that the N700 is a better phone, but the reasons stated haven't convinced me. I've heard that its got better battery life, but battery life is way to subjective to say for sure and both batteries are the same.

I've also heard that the processor is better, but my research says that the i717 has a faster processor, though its not dual core. I'm also not convinced that a stock dual core will out perform my over clocked processor.

As far as data speeds there is a mod that changes att's network settings, and I've seen my data speeds increase 3-fold, up to 40mbs/s.

Other than all that, I don't like the button on the N700.... I guess i would just rather have 4 soft keys that 1 hard key.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] digichris:
I love the att note, fast speed, no ugly button on front of phone :) oh and because it was my only option! ;)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kinghorsey:
It depends. The N7000 doesn't support LTE but the i717 does. If this isn't a concern to you go with the N7000 as it has far more development than the i717.

And yeah, the home button (physical) beats four capacitive buttons any day in my book.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kiltedthrower:
It seems people like or don't like the middle button... No in between opinions. I think the middle physical button is ugly. It's the main reason I didn't get the international version. I'm just glad the US version didn't have it or I wouldn't have a note.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kinghorsey:
The Korean versions have it too.

My previous phone had it. I'd probably prefer it because it means no fourth, "search" capacitive button...which makes using the s pen a lot easier ... at least for me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] testulous:
I have a black N7000 and white i717 and FWIW the N7000 is easily my favourite. Battery life is approx double, I have flashed nearly every ROM available for both. Cap buttons suck. LTE is a battery-sucking pig and not much faster in my area (Vancouver,Rogers). Better ROMs on N7000, call recording, smoother operation. I haven't found a rom as smooth on i717 as any on N7k. Unlock on N7000 is easy and free. BUT, there's that ssd firmware bug and tiptoeing around every N7000 flash is nerve wracking.

Currently running CM9 on the 717, all stock, it is still laggy/jerky.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] autoprime:
Below are two scripts to enable/disable USB Diag mode on the Samsung Galasy S III. This should work on all CDMA carriers on both Touchwiz and AOSP roms. Curious to hear if this works on Evo LTE AOSP builds. Thanks to toastcfh for the help.

On Touchwiz you can go to the dialer and hit ##3424# > USB Settings and select DM + MODEM + ADB. But for CM10 and AOKP, the scripts must be used. Diag mode is mainly needed to use QPST and other similar CDMA tools... QXDM, CDMA Workshop, DFS, etc.

To enable diag mode run the following...

#/system/bin/sh

# sets DIAG mode
echo 0 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/enable
echo 04E8 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/idVendor
echo 6860 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/idProduct
echo diag > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/f_diag/clients
echo 1 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/f_acm/instances
echo diag,acm,adb > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/functions
echo 1 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/enable
start adbd
setprop sys.usb.state sys.usb.config

To disable diag mode you can reboot the phone or run the following...

#/system/bin/sh

# sets default USB mode
echo 0 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/enable
echo 04E8 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/idVendor
echo 6860 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/idProduct
echo 1 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/f_acm/instances
echo mtp,acm,adb > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/functions
echo 1 > /sys/class/android_usb/android0/enable
start adbd
setprop sys.usb.state sys.usb.config

You can use a script manager to run the script. Open script manager, browse to script files on SD card, select script, set to run as SU and hit save. Do this with both scripts. Now you can use the script manager in the Widgets section to create shortcuts on the desktop for easy access. Hopefully these scripts get built into CM10 so this method is no longer needed.

Scripts are attached below. Hit thx. :good:
