[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Hi guys :)

I just wondered, when you remove the back cover of the nexus7. Is there some tape or something, so that the guys at ASUS can tell if you have removed the back cover.

Has anyone encounter problems with warranty when they have removed the back cover?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cynnthetic:
There's no tape or stickers. You are free to take a look inside.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frank35:
My first unit was returned for exchange with no problems. I opened the back cover multiple times.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steevp:
Same here.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] findmike:
Plus they really can't void your warranty for removing a sticker. It's a pretty common tactic among hardware vendors to put a little "warranty void" sticker on their devices and it is a pretty well known fact that they have no legal basis in the world to actually deny a warranty claim based on breaking a sticker.

It's your device, you are allowed to open and modify it as you see fit, the burden of proof rests on the manufacturer to demonstrate that any failure was caused by your modification and thus voided your warranty - a little sticker is not sufficient grounds to make that claim on any device out there.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] no6969el:
Do you or anyone else have the legal writing for this that says it has no legal basis. Im not challenging you just looking for more facts to have when /if I ever need to express this.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bhatia.mani:
Hi,

I am trying to search a tread where i can find the way to instal cwm recovery on galaxy note n7000 v4.0.4 without flashing kernal.

Every where it is suggested to install safe kernal but i dont want to do that.

i have rooted my phone using latest method mentioned below.

Now i want to install CWM recovery so that i can install cm9 or 10 or other ROMs. Kindly Suggest a way

"Rooting with stock recovery - Thanx to Entropy who direct this way,as well always looking for safety measures for us, Chainfire for creating great tool SuperSu (and many more), Phil3759 as files,scripts derived from his Thread and Linus Yang for Busybox.

- Download Root_SuperSu 0.94

-Copy downloaded file to Ext SD card.

-Reboot into recovery (vol up+Home+power)

-Select install zip from ext SD card

-select 'root_SuperSU-*.zip' which you have copied to Ext card above

-Reboot device

-You can see superSU on appl drawer. open it and update.

-Now This will give you only SuperSU not busybox, though application which doesn't depends on system busybox will still works.e.g.Titanium Backup.

-To get full Root+busybox, Download Root_busybox *

-Copy Root_busybox* only to Ext SD card

-Reboot into recovery, Select Install zip from Ext SD card. select Root_busybox* .zip and Flash.

-Done !"

No you can't get standalone recovery/CWM that way. another thing, you want to flash CM9 on stock ICS that is dangerous, it can brick your device.

Safest way is flash prerooted GB ROM(one on my signature) and use CWM (U will get along with prerooted ROM) to install CM based ROM.

that would help me too, how can I do it? you meant CWM???
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Yes, but any recovery will do for factory-reset. (There are others than CWM)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alankstiyo:
ok let me see if I got the instructions correct

download the fw from sammobile, the stock one

flash through odin

if stuck on samsung screen, access to recovery (missing how)

wipe data

enjoy??

sorry for asking this too much but I'm still a noob with samsung devices
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariosraptor:
to boot into recovery, whatever recovery it is either stock or CWM.

turn off the phone ( if it does not turn off by on/off button, just pull the battery and leave it out for 5 seconds),

press and hold with this order: volume up+ home button+ on/off(power button) and keep pressing until the logo. release power button and keep pressing the other buttons.

wipe data + cache + dalvik cache. reboot

[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Hey everyone.. I've been combing through forums for the past 5 hours trying to help out a buddy. He picked up an unlocked Verizon XT862 a while back, but we're having a heck of a time getting it on Manitoba's MTS network (partnered with Rogers in Manitoba, Canada). I put on .890, then rooted, safestraped, and tried Steel Droid. It won't find the MTS gsm network. I even have tried screwing around with a 883 radio and modified build.prop. It would be great if I could just run the Bell XT860 firmware as that would probably do it, but I have heard that's impossible. So has Verizon just locked the ever locking crap out of this things GSM or what? Any way I can get voice/sms/data working up here on this thing? I desperately need some help. Thanks!

i dont think verizon locked anything.... Im using a GSM simcard in Lithuania without any problems, try switching your phone Network Mode to Global or GSM/UMTS
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Hm.. Okay thanks. I'm just reloading the SBF to get it back to stock. It will find Rogers, but I can never get it to see MTS for some reason. I will keep trying.
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
So I reloaded the SBF and same issues. When this phone is on Network Mode: GSM/UMTS , it finds Rogers 3G and 2G. If I pick Rogers 3G, I don't get any service. It just has the red No over the signal bars. If I switch it to Network Mode: Global, it gets almost full signal strength, but in *#*#4636#*#* its using the CDMA network. If I change the preferred network type to GSM only, it never finds anything (assuming its only looking for Verizon?). If I try GSM auto (PRL), then it doesn't find anything either. I just don't get why its not finding our MTS 3G network in Network Mode: GSM/UMTS.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Try these apns

http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1709183-MTS-APN-settings
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Yeah I have the apns from MTS already. It still doesn't seem to find MTS though. Only Rogers comes up after network scans. I'm going to try to modify the build.prop.
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Does it use the Rogers network, or have its own? What spectrum does it use? Are you sure the d3 supports its spectrum? I didn't see that info in my good search, although I did see they have a legacy cdma network, can you find that?
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Endoroid: Thanks for the help. Yeah they used to be purely CDMA (EVDO and 1x), but they decided to partner with Rogers in Manitoba and share the HSPA+ (21Mbps) towers. As taken from their website: Please note that any unlocked device must support 4G North American Frequencies (850Mhz), older GSM devices will not function on our new 4G network. You can find out if your device is 4G compliant by reviewing the phone's settings.

So it looks like they operate on the 850Mhz spectrum, which should be fine for the quad band XT862. I'm not 100% sure if the network search should show up MTS 3G or not. I don't have an official MTS GSM phone to check it with. It does find the following two networls:

CAN Rogers Wireless Inc. 3G (302-720)

CAN Rogers Wireless Inc. 2G (302-720)

I would assume I should see something like: CAN MTS Wireless Inc. 3G (something here), but nothing ever shows up. If I select either of the Roger's networks, nothing ever happens. It just has the red block over the signal bars and it never grabs a signal. Then I randomly get the following popup:

Network Error

No GSM/UMTS networks were found. Would you like to switch to the Global mode?

I've had it pull the 1x legacy MTS CDMA network before. I think that might have been in Global mode.

So confused.
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Okay I'm RSD'ing VRZ_XT862_5.5.1_84_D3G-55_1FF_01.xml back onto this thing. That should get me back to stock, right? I don't know why it doesn't just work with the stock setup. I really should, shouldn't it? It's unlocked, just load the apns and go? Weird. Does RSD'ing that file reset the radios and everything? I'm not sure what all has been messed with on this thing. I'd like it back to virgin if possible.

Edit: So I reload that file and it boots up asking about international roaming. I agree and it pulls a network. It's MTS 1x CDMA though. I put it to GSM/UMTS and do a network search and the two Rogers networks show up again. If I pick one of them, I instantly get a notification bar error about no service and selected network unable... I have an MTS SIM in this thing and the mts apn entered. So weird.

My buddy said at one point while he was messing with it, he had it find the MTS gsm network. He can't remember what rom or what he had done, but he still couldn't get data working. Only voice/sms. Should I try a different rom? Any suggestions?
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
I dont think rom will matter. You could try editing the build.prop. Change default network mode from 7 to 3 and verizon global phone from 1 to 0. These are the changes needed to get d3(cdma)roms to work on my xt860(GSM) .

You could add the apns to /system/etc/apns-conf.xml I don't think that will make any difference as it should read it from the sim, but never hurts to try.
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
That's exactly what I've been trying in regards to the build.prop. Doesn't seem like it ends up doing anything thouhg. Not sure. I will definitely try adding the apns to that other file though. Thanks again!
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Ya im sort of at a loss. I've only ever used my device on the bell network(the carrier I bought it from) so I've never had to deal with this issue. Hopefully someone with more experience in this will pipe up
[Motorola Droid 3] LaZiODROID:
For some reason I recall reading about XT862 users having to flash something like the XT883 radio to access GSM networks? Or am I mixed up...
[Motorola Droid 3] Endoroid:
Hmmm... That might actually make sense. It's supposed to be locked against us gsm networks, but I wonder if it extends to Canadian networks as well. Maybe take a look in the unlock for at&t thread

Data connection DROID 3

I'm having the exact same problem.

I have an unlocked DROID 3, which is working perfectly fine for voice and SMS, but no Data.

I've tried flashing the XT883 radio img, which did nothing.

I'm thinking I might just flash the whole XT883 ROM onto it, maybe it'll make a difference?

But, in regards to your case, I do recall that someone mentioned not being able to get a data connection in Canada, en they had to play around with the libmoto_ril.so file.

Flashed XT883 ROM. No luck.

Only change is that it's automatically getting the default APN's for the network. But no DATA.

At this point, Could it be a hardware issue? My voice and sms radio is working perfectly, are they linked? WIFI works fine.

Such a nice phone. pity.

Cheers.
[Motorola Droid 3] RWALEY:
If voice and text are working then it is very unlikely that it could be a hardware issue.

Do you know if the carrier blocks data access to unknown IMEI numbers?

Also, do you get any data if you force the phone to use GSM (GPRS/EDGE) only?
[Motorola Droid 3] contracara:
I'll check with my carrier about that one.

I did notice that when I go into *#*#4636#*#* in phone information, there's an option to select radio band

the only band available is USA band.

would that be an issue?

Thanks

Edit:

No, no data on GSM (GPRS/EDGE) only.

Also, I've seen there's quite a few motorola phones that reported this sort of bug.

Sometimes due to the wrong (old) type of SIM card being used.

Anyone know of this?

Cheers
[Motorola Droid 3] RWALEY:
The phone only supports what is known as USA band (850/1900) so that is not an issue as long as your carrier uses it for data.

Very doubtful that the SIM card is causing a problem. I am using a very old Cingular SIM that is about 7 years old and getting HSPA+ without issue on AT&T.

It sounds like a carrier issue or restriction. There are some out there who restrict APN access for data.
[Motorola Droid 3] contracara:
Thanks for your help.

I found this info, in case anyone's facing the same problem.

http://www.verboom.net/blog/index.html?single=20110908.0

I'm about to give it a go myself.

Will update here.
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Okay I've tried a LOT of roms and various patches/build.props/lib.so/etc, but I'm still having troubles. I haven't looked into the post just above this one yet, but I have a really basic question to ask. Forgive me for my ignorance, but this is my first GSM phone (I've always been CDMA).

No matter what rom or radio or whatever I have on my Verizon XT862, it should still "find" and display all available GSM networks when I scan for a network? Let me clarify.. We have MTS and Rogers here. Both share towers and obviously operate on the same 850Mhz frequencies. Whenever I scan for networks, I've only EVER found Rogers 3G and Rogers 2G. Never have I seen anything MTS related. Should it display both? Whenever I select Rogers 3G, I instantly get the unable to connect notification. I have a legit MTS SIM card, but it isn't currently activated. Do I need to have my service switched over to the SIM before it will "connect" or find the network? Now that I'm typing this, that seems very likely. I just didn't want to have to switch it over and lose my service until I had this all figured out, but it might need to be that way.
[Motorola Droid 3] LaZiODROID:
Any friends that are actually on MTS (So you can try their SIM?) I wonder if staff at an MTS store would offer a test one for you to try? (incentive for you to get on a plan with them)
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Actually sounds like a very doable plan. I will take it over to the local MTS store and see if I can steal a SIM out of their display phone quickly. Great advice. Thanks!
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Been a while, but I finally managed to snag an active MTS sim card. Popped it in and it found MTS immediately. Voice worked. Never tried SMS, but I'm assuming it would work as well. I was more worried about the data side of things. Even though the APN was entered in, I got nothing. I went into *#*#4363#*#* and it looked like it was trying to connect with the right APN settings, but then it would say failed unknown data error (or something to that extent). The SIM I stole was from a blackberry (not sure if that makes a difference or not). Any more ideas? I might go find a non-BB active SIM tomorrow and make sure that wasn't the problem. I might ask MTS if they block unknown IMEIs, but others have not had issues. I'm at a loss again.
[Motorola Droid 3] LaZiODROID:
Good luck. I dont recommend stealing sims though... :)

Sent from my HTC Raider
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Did you ever try this? I'm just about to start messing with this, but I'm not sure if its relevant for MTS. If I enter the APN, it shouldn't make a difference what's in the /system/etc/apns-conf.xml file, right? I'm more worried about the /system/etc/ppp/peers/pppd-ril.options edits. MTS's APN doesn't have a username and password, so can I blank these out completely? I wish I had an active SIM to mess around with full time. Grr!
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Oh sorry. Didn't even realize I typed it like that. I actually went for coffee with a buddy and borrowed his SIM to test with quickly. I had to give it back so I'm without an active one again. Maybe I'll make some changes and then swing by the MTS store tomorrow and see if I can borrow one briefly to test again. Such a PITA!

This 5 minutes between posts is also annoying :P
[Motorola Droid 3] HiQ:
Hm.. I was leaning towards the libmoto_ril.so maybe being the issue, but now I'm thinking the radio is not going to work for me. I used the XT883 from ChinaTelecom for the latest baseband (n_37.18.16s), but China uses 2100MHz for its UMTS and Rogers/MTS uses 1900MHz. Anyone know more about this kinda stuff? I get so lost in the UMTS/GSM/3G/etc talk. Maybe I won't touch anything and I'll borrow an active SIM tomorrow. Then I'll see if aLogcat says anything (not sure if that will show anything valuable or not). Any ideas? Thanks everyone.
[Motorola Droid 3] LaZiODROID:
Try the libmoto first. Do you have a copy? I believe that once you delete your old one and copy the new one over you should then set the correct permissions on the file by doing

chmod 644 libmoto_ril.so
