[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sn0w420:
I was about to follow the video guide found in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1728824 which shows you how to root and install CWM without tripping the flash counter. Can I follow his installation instructions, but instead use the rooted stock Telus rom linked to in this thread? I assume that if i follow the guide in his thread and use the files he links to, I will end up re-flashing the stock 4.0.1 rom instead of the new 4.0.4, which I want to keep.

Plus I want to have CWM and not trip my flash counter so I dont need to bother with Triangle Away.

This is my first time rooting or flashing anything to my phone, so my apologies for my extreme n00bness. Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jebise101:
If you use the rooted ROM in the other thread you will have that version and not the August LH1 update, remember the ones i linked are full stock firmware. Maybe someone will create a stock rooted flashable odin tar, but you really dont need it. Just flash using the above steps and use Triangle Away. Triangle Away although dangerous does no harm at all, its a simple apk file that installs like any other app, once you confirm it is displaying the correct model (our is I747M) then just hit the reset counter and let it do its thing and then you can uninstall it simple as that.

No point in waiting for someone to create a no trip counter file because that is much hard to do. Plus the only reason I think the first ones where like that was because Triangle Away did not fully support the I747M.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] David Dee:
The thread for the no trip method referred to in that video is here. The OP in that thread is still working on root injected versions for the new Canadian firmwares, the ones currently in the OP are the old versions. He can create them quickly, I think he is just waiting for volunteers to mirror the files. Keep checking and when you see a Telus version up ending in LH1, you are good to go.

Thanks OP, that works just fine to reroot my phone and reset the trip counter!

A little easier guide to get root?

Hi, I made this easier a little bit. Follow the posted guide from the op

Download your FW and Odin 3.07 (and ofc sammy drivers and what not)

Then

8.) click start, wait for you to go back to lockscreen.

9.) Flash the zip attached below (through your CWM) (vol up+ power button+ home button to get to recovery)

[BOOM you have root!]

10.) get triangle away, reset flash counter.

I did not make the zip i just got it from searching around.

By the way, I tried installing HSPL 3.0.3 and it keeps saying wrong vendor or bad ID or something along those lines.

Any suggestions? I'm open to anything haha
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
(First of all, I hate videos, even though it's far more better than "my phone is not working" threads)

Okay, we need to know the history of the device. What was the last thing you tried to do

before which the phone was working correctly

?

Second thing, since you don't have HSPL, you need the correct ROM for your device. (not any rom will work)

Finally, you need HSPL4 package, to install HSPL if you have SPL 3.03.

Good luck fixing it :).

(correct me if I'm wrong)

Is there any way to tether my data internet to a Xbox like I could do with a computer ?

Just looking for an easier way instead of using my computer as a modem an connecting it that way but that involves changing the proxy and server information on your computer and Xbox. I have manage to do it but don't really want to go through all of that sooooo. I was hoping somebody had a better way.

Okay so after some more testing I could not get to work for more than a 20 min window. The best way in my opinion is to bridge the connection from a computer. That way I could watch a full length movie and play hours of need for speed. I just hate adjusting all the server and proxy settings that's all.

I'll be in Malaysia next week with my trust nexus and will have internet (via an xcom global mifi) and was hoping that GPS would work without a phone signal. Last time I traveled to Germany with my sprint touch pro 2 I learned the hard way that a 15min lock time made the phone useless without a signal. Any ideas?

Also I was planning on forwarding my google voice number to my skype mobile number and just running skype for all calls- sound like a good solution? thanks in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
As long as you have an internet connection it won't take the long time to lock. Doesn't have to be a cell connection, WiFi will do just fine.

GV forwarding to Skype should work just fine too. Just make sure the Skype app is set to run in the background.

I actually downloaded NavFree from the playstore (there's 2 version; one for USA and one for international). You will have to download the maps to your phones internal storage prior to running the nav, but it worked for me flawlessly here in Cali, USA. Don't even have a sim card in my Nexus and I got it to guide me without a hick up. Almost instant lock too.

thanks!! 2 more questions

1) I couldn't find a map for Malaysia for Navfree- any suggestions?

I had to use the Kies software... Which was very fast btw... But buggy at first, the program would not detect my phone so I had to reinstall the drivers/firmware for Kies and took the battery out of my phone for a minute. All in all, when it actually started to work, the whole process took about 15 minutes.

Greetings all,

I have a Verizon S3 and after reading the posts here I felt froggy so I took the leap to root. I downloaded Odin and used this as the ROM

(stripped.rooted.system.img.tar.md5.zip, md5sum: 4d664b60b1ad5952a332bd1d78aa228b). The phone rebooted and is running as normal.

My question is in regard to the next step. I have EZ-Recovery, Recovery Manager, and CWR Manager (v5.0.2.0) installed as apps. I do not have an external SD card yet (tomorrow). What do I need to do to backup? I ran the CWR, flashed the CWM Recovery and backed up the current ROM.

Am I good to do the Synergy ROM the same way? I'm ok with a full wipe of the phone. Do I need to unlock the bootloader? Have I escaped the brick risk?

Thanks in advance for the answers!

[G Tablet General] GreenMan1976:
So I've been running Vegan-TAb GingerEdition 7.0.0 (using clockworkmod I don't remember the version) for a year or so and decided I was going to upgrade. I plugged the USB into my Win7 64bit PC and it told me it was unsupported please format. I of course wasn't going to let Windows format it and since I had upgraded ton Win7 since I had last connected the tablet I figured that was the issue. I started searching the forums on how to fix this and the tablet died. I figured I had just forgot to plug it in so I did and let it charge. When I went to turn it back on later, I got past the birds then to the Vegan-Tab loading screen. It would come on, flash, then go blank, come on again flash and repeat a total of 9 times, then just go blank. The PC recognizes it as there but when I try to open the drive it says "Please insert a disk into removable disk H:". I've tried installing the usb drivers through the SDK, it seemed successful, but I still get the Please insert disk. I then tried the USB drivers suggested by the nVflash thread and still nothing.

Any suggestions? Should I try a Linux machine? I've searched around and haven't found anyone else with this same problem.
[G Tablet General] tsukaza:
You might have to nvflash the tablet back to factory stock ROM for BL 1.2 and then upgrade the rom to VeganTAB 7.1 from their site.

When you set your tablet in apt mode ( power and the + volumn buttom, the 3 birds will display and then screen goes blank, that is

normal) and plug it to the PC, the PC should make a sound then you are ready to do a nvflash.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fr8cture:
I would unlocked the bootloader to be safe and backup your IMEI!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
Yes, you must unlock your bootloader to start flashing rom's. Use EZ unlock from the market. BEFORE you begin flashing rom's, you really should backup your IMEI as mentioned above. Nandroid recovery will back this up incorrectly if it becomes corrupted. Do some research in the development section on this, as it could save you from ending up with a really expensive galaxy player instead of an amazing rooted phone! There is a very simple way to do this using a terminal emulator app and typing in a simple command. And after installing Synergy there is a second way to do it so you'll have 2 backups with nothing to worry about. Here's the link :

Backed up...next steps?

_____________

Ok, bootloader unlocked. Downloaded the terminal emulator and did the 'su' ' reboot nvbackup'. Is it that easy? Where is the backup stored? Is there any way to backup my ROM/IMEI to my PC in case I f something up? Am I out of brick-land yet?

Now I have the synergy Rom downloaded and saved to my SD card. Do i now go into CWM and choose install ROM from SD card?

Thanks for any and all answers!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
That's it for the IMEI backup. Now do a nandroid backup in recovery mode. Then follow rom install directions. Wipe/cache/dakvik/install zip/reboot. On reboot if it asks to overwrite original recovery selecting yes or no will not matter. After your up and running, check that all cell/data works, then go ahead and do another backup of your IMEI using the synergy zip method described in that thread. This is insurance, the other script method makes sure that the device keeps the correct one and does not lose it (it's a bug in the system).

You will never be out of brick land, there is always the possibility you could get careless and flash something you shouldn't. As long as you know what your flashing though and its for your phone you're pretty safe.

Video Review!

I wanted to do this because I couldn't find any good cases from eBay for cheap, so maybe this will help someone out! Check out my video review. Sorry about the quality! Let me know if you need any pics.

Final Thoughts:

Clear back case:

Good

+ Slim

+ Clear semi transparent back

+ Holes line up well

Bad

- Won't protect if dropped face down

- Slippery back due to design

- Only one color choice

- No 3 pin support

- Power button isn't as accessible

Blue S shape case:

Good

+ Cool design (function and look) with several color choices

+ Very good grip

+ Cheaper than clear case

Bad

- Holes aren't lined up perfectly

"LBE Privacy Guard" not working in rom "Paranoid Android V1.992" on Google Nexus

The app LBE Privacy Guard can be installed and accessed in Paranoid Android V1.992. But once it is allowed "Active Protection Mode" (key to its functionality) and granted Superuser rights the phone kills itself in a loop and is inaccessible with only a restore of a previous state helping. I noticed other users on xda dev. having similar problems. i can not ask in the forum for Paranoid Android V1.992 because i am considered stupid.

LBE is the only app that allows precise management of app permissions, that i could find. i dont understand how anyone can live without it. it also includes a firewall. its free.

Questions:

- does anyone know how to get LBE Privacy Guard running in Paranoid Android 1.992? Is there a general problem in that rom that is going to be fixed with V2.0?

- is there any other app to disallow permissions? (that is not killing my phone?!?)

thanks in advance and kudos to the creators of paranoid android. and to the makers of LBE Privacy Guard.

@qtwrk: do you know of any app that allows to manage permissions? that seems *so crucial* to me.
