[Networking] spiritual.theory:
Quick disclaimer, yes I am a noob with an Epic4G. My experience extends only as far as my rooting and flashing roms and modems for the past couple years, and recently PRL's using QPST. That being said...

Prelude:

Due to ever decreasing signal with Sprint in my area, I recently attempted to put my phone on 100% roaming on Verizon towers - I went through a few different Verizon PRL's - the first couple would work briefly then would give me a "Welcome to Verizon Message" - the last one worked a couple times and then I got the "Error number 16" message every time I tried calling out. At this point I left my phone on roaming and tried to push the roaming data over their 'limit' to see if I could get booted w/o ETF. I gave up after 1.5gb of roaming data, reflashed to stock, switched PRL's back to Sprint, rooted, and discovered that the "Error number 16" had followed me back to my Sprint PRL and stock GB ROM w/EC05... After some further attempts and research it looked like I was going to have to call or chat - but given I had just suddenly downloaded 1.5gb in a couple days on roaming I did not want to have to explain that...

Simple solution (kinda):

Requires any old sprint phone, working or not.

1> On your phone with the Error 16 : Factory Reset your phone so that it will try to "Hands Free Activate" upon next boot

--- You can do this via Odin Reset Phone EFS or the ##xxxxxx# MSL reset

2> Power down the phone - do not let it start up at this point - if it tries to off a reboot, pop the battery.

3> Go on sprint.com, log into your account

4> Click the drop down menu for your device and select "Activate New Device"

5> Put in the MEID for whatever old phone you have that you aren't currently using (I had a broken EVO Shift that I used)

6> Watch as sprint "activates" the "new" phone until you get the screen with the programming instructions

7> Immediately go back to your devices and "Activate New Device" again

8> This time put the MEID in for the phone that has the Error 16

9> When the phone is activated on Sprint's website and you see the programming instructions, power it on and let the Hands Free Activation do its thing

Viola, Error 16 is now gone. Root, flash, whatever you want. I am back on CM7.2 with no more Error 16s at all. I would use CM9 but it is not truly stable on the Epic4g. I am not 100% sure if you really have to reset your error-ed phone first, but I wanted to make sure it did not try accessing my sprint account in any way except to try to activate from scratch. I am sure someone much more experienced than me can take and rewrite this better or more accurately but here you go. Clear Error 16 from your Sprint Phone in 5-10 min without calling or chatting with Sprint. Just need an old phone that doesn't even have to power up or work.
[Networking] eng1neer:
sprint error 16

So on a technical discussion.. what causes the error 16 issue? what is causing sprints system to trip that error code? I can confirm the activation of another phone then putting the phone back will fix the issue but I guess the question is why...

Hello everyone,

I'm not an tf300 user, but I'm searching for a solution for my brother. For specific reasons he need to use the on-screen keyboard even while docked, but this option is disabled since he updated it to JellyBean... Is there a solution for it? He is completely stock non rooted...

Thanks!
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
This seems to work for me. Either press Ctrl+ Shift on the dock and then you will see the an option to turn the physical keyboard off. If Ctrl and shift doesn't work for you, click the little keyboard in the bar at the bottom and select it to off from there. The below picture is when i press Ctrl+Shift
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpopovic85:
Thank you, I'll tell him your way! He said that even if he choose to display it, but I think he did it from Input Settings and not with Ctrl/Shift...
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndisputedGuy:
If Ctrl+shift doesn't work, try doing it by clicking the little keyboard icon on the left hand side of the clock whilst typing in the status bar.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpopovic85:
It seems he has a bug, it turns off immediately after he switch it on :eek:

he'll try rebooting it...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] arseny87:
Well I flashed CM9 RC2 on my T-Mobile S2, running ICS 4.0.3, after it finished installing, it booted up. It's been sitting on the boot animation for about ten minutes.

I flashed it via Rom Manager, downloaded the RC2 version of CM9 as well as the ics gapps, then it went into recovery mode and it did itself.

How long is it supposed to take on first boot? Or is my phone bricked.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Cobra281:
if you can get to the boot animation, it's not bricked. try to reboot into recovery again, wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache, install CM9 again, and reboot.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
He's right, but overall, post in the correct forum next time for better results and it's just good for everyone else lol. I clicked on this solely cause I saw Release Candidate, I was like no way!?!?! Haha
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Laxshanth:
idk what happend i did same thing yesterday and it worked fine. i was running CM7 and then i wanted to try paranoid android build 8, now my problem is i wanna get back onto CM7 to use titanium back up to back up all my apps. i used rom manager and clicked back up rom and copied it to my laptop now to restore it i put it back onto the root of my SD card and in CWM when i click restore it doesnt show up anymore, i cleared all the data and everything before as well any suggestions?:confused:
[T-Mobile LG G2x] redmonke255:
Not at root. It's somewhere like clockwork mod/backup. Look for the clockwork mod folder in your root directory.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Laxshanth:
i found the clockworkmod folder but theres nothing else in there should i create my own named backup? i put the update.zip in there and now when im in recovery>backup and restore>restore it says "no files found"
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Lol... well first off you should never use ROM manager to do anything except RENAME your backups. Don't use it to flash anything or backup anything.

If you did a proper backup it would be under sdcard/clockworkmod/backup and it won't be a zip file. It'll be a folder of the date and time you backed up, and inside will have about 5 files some ending in .ext3 or .ext4.

Reboot into recovery manually next time, never use ROM manager for our phone.

I'm sure you lost all your stuff from your old ROM... don't know what that update.zip could be. If anything you can try backing up your current ROM the RIGHT way then in recovery, after you back up, just go to flash zip>and flash whatever the update.zip is... maybe it's a ROM? I don't know.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Laxshanth:
well i guess i lost my CM7 :/ everything on my SD card is gone now guess im sticking with paranoid android 8 thanks for the tip though ill keep that in mind next time. and where does it say flash zip? o.o in CWM?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Laxshanth:
clicked install zip from sd card and picked update.zip and it said it installed and then when i run it it just goes too the same rom i was on but everythings erased(i cleared everything before flashing it)
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
If the update.zip were a ROM it'd be about 85 MBs... yeah guess it's all lost :/.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Laxshanth:
So if I did this and used titanium back up and backed up ans restored my apps on my ics rom would they have all my progress saved? Such as game levels and settings etc
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
It will wipe CWM and unroot. I first used Titanium backup, etc. to reinstall my apps but I wasn't using an ICS ROM, I was and still am using Gingerbread with Faux kernel and some tweaks. After you run the update utility, you will have to root your phone, reinstall CWM, reinstall your ICS ROM, reinstall your apps with Titanium backup.

I've attached the pdf file from LG which is referred to in my previous post. The pdf file is what the hyperlink in my previous post is supposed to open in your browser but, if it doesn't, it is attached here. Just follow my instructions in my previous post with those in the pdf file which includes the internet address where the update utility is located.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Laxshanth:
Well I've come to the decision that. Gonna leave it all to disappear aha stick with my ics rom thanks a lot though!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] kesara:
Its not on the root of the sd card. It should be on clockworkmod/backup folder on your sd card

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quique_N:
Hey,

I bought the i9300 in Argentina (made in Argentina as well).

I've bought it from Movistar (Argentine carrier) and I've flashed a UK stock rom and also this modem I9300XXLH1.

I'm having trouble with the 3g connection. It connects, but works very slow. Should I flash another modem? In case I should. where can I find one for Argentina. I've already searched the web for answers, and the closesest I got was finding an Argentine unbranded rom. Should I look just for a modem?

Thank's a lot.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
Flash your original modem from the modem thread .

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quique_N:
By "original", do you mean the original Argentine, or the original of the UK rom I've installed?

If I'm not wrong, there isn't an Argentine modem in the modem thread...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jctux:
I think JJEgan means the modem having the same reference as the one when you bought the phone.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quique_N:
The thing is that I have no idea which modem we use here. I don't want to install the original rom because it's branded and it sucks...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jctux:
andmpringsi

In the modem thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1740061) there is section about "Argentina, Mexico, Colombia" (modem UBLG2 dated from 04/7/2012). You can always try it. If don't work, revert back to the modem of your current ROM.

I just got my SGS3 second hand two days ago and currently it runs great but I feel something is off. The glass on the screen (while smooth) feels rough when I swipe my finger to operate phone but other than that I dont feel the screen responsiveness / accuracy is where it should be. There is a slight delay that is starting to bug me because it doesnt feel as seamless as it should be. Its running stock XXBLG8 unooted. Could it be the stock firmware or kernel? Im hoping its a software issue that will be fixed with an update since I never had this issue before
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SexyIceCream:
uncheck power saving, that ought to solve your problem. imo even though cpu power saving claims to only affect the phone when under heavy usage...it gives a speed boost even in swiping between screens.

This seems to have been built into all recent Motorola Phones way before ICS but the ICS recovery is the first program to display this info to the average user. It's nothing Moto couldn't retrieve before....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] SyCoREAPER:
I can't argue about that, but now the store has a very quick way to say screw you we aren't helping. I will never go to the store for support because I can get better, faster and more accurate help on this forum. Its more so the principle on how Motorola is just finding more and more ways to drive people away.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Travisdroidx2:
Screw moto! That's why I got a gnex and would never buy a moto phone again! It is BS!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Dougau:
I'm willing to bet all ICS capable phones by all manufactures have this built in. The only difference is they may not choose to let you know it's there by letting it show up in the recovery screen.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Travisdroidx2:
Thats motorolla for you. I bought a used gnex took it to Verizon and it was unlocked and rooted with a custom rom. They did not even care they said I could still get Assurian insurance and just put it back to stock and re lock the boooader before sending it in. They did not even care at the store.

mikes latest kernel should resolve that, if he applied the fix Chad gave them.

Try kies and first update it to latest version and try also ota update setting/check for updates

Some esp. in Us have 4.0.4 try also search www.samfirmware.com for your country

or if you want to install unofficial jelly bean go for

and you must be rooted first and install cm10 but you should have cwm 6.0.1.0 or 6.0.1.2 you will find operation in site
