Dude this is modified ota, by the op.

Read the bottom half.

What's mostly funny is that your thread for this leak is 3 days later than this, even if they were identical, which they are not.

North Americans are such a conservative bunch. 4 months after release and wasteland that are the dev sections, the thread about flashing ota without root, completely stock ( which was actually factory designed to be this way, doh!) is supposed to take precedent and is actually more popular than the one that has minor adjustments to allow install on any modded rom.

How come there is no LTA/HSPA option anymore?

Also, anyone else getting the lte->4G network drop issues still?

I literally have every known issue on this phone.

1. Any stock rom and/or kernel = overheating

2. Lte connection randomly starts a battery plummet

3. Randomly go from lte connection to no service at all... Only resolved via reboot

People, this is a 'leaked' prototype of what's to come. :mad:

YES, you WILL have issues. Would you drive a car that's only half way done the assembly line?

NO ONE SHOULD gripe on this site about some piece of leaked software that's not completed.

I flashed it, it sucked, and I'm now back on SlimBEAN. Too easy.

Also, calling it a piece of cr@p is totally out of order, it's not done yet people!

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK, and if your phone melts due to over heating, that is YOUR fault.

i did the ota up date to I747MVLALI3 to my non rooted bell gs3 but now the official version of 4.1.1 is out but phone will not update telling me that it already has the latest firmware and kies says your device does not support software upgrading via kies

Curent firmware version PDA:LI3 / PHONE :LH1 / CSC:LI3 (BMC)

i would appreciate some input on how to do this , ive been dealing with all the bugs that came with installing I747MVLALI3 for a while so it would be nice to have a stable firmware again

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TRusselo:
revert to stock LH1 to receive updates. you cannot update from a leak.

OR flash the new released 4.1.1 LK4 directly

go here www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=SGH-I747M&pcode=BMC&os=1&type=1

and download lk4 and flash with odin.

Ok...here goes my total newb post.

I wanted to replace a water damaged Nexus S phone, and so I proceeded to order one on the Internet.

I got what looked to be an exact replacement quite easily and for a decent price.

Here comes the Newb part...are you ready for it?

The Nexus S I got was a GSM phone. My service provider Is HSPA only.

I had no Idea that there were actually seperate models of Nexus S phones.

My question is: (again, sorry if this sounds dumb....) Is this hardware based....or can I fix it by flashing firmware?

O.K....let me have it....:rolleyes:
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niteh@wk:
First, this should go in Q&A subforum..

Is your phone phone not working? What is your carrier? GT-I9020T is TMobile GSM model and should work with their HSPA network.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] overtheair:
If you got the Nexus S that is GSM, then your device is already capable of HSPA data. The other model Nexus S is the Nexus S 4G for Sprint, which uses EVDO and WiMax data and is not compatible with HSPA (it's a hardware thing - you can't change that in firmware).

Did you mean to say instead that you got a GSM phone but your provider is CDMA-only (i.e., Sprint)?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GT-19020T:
My new phone does not work with my carrier (which is Koodo) in Canada. They claim they areHSPA 850/1900 frequency.

Sorry I should have included that info.

And yes I mis-placed the whole post. It should be in Q&A.,,,,Mod!?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GT-19020T:
Litoriser passage

O.K. Perhaps I am using the wrong terminology then. Please see my above post to answer your question.

I think what you are saying is that there are only the two models and that the answer to my original question is that I am screwed.

Thanks for your response...wanna buy a Phone?:p

P.S. I know they deter spam....but I really hate Captcha's
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdatastic:
sounds like you need the i9020a model which uses the 850 frequency range.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexus_S#Variants
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GT-19020T:
Aha!....several models to be more precise. sigh...

O.K. then, Maybe I should re visit the original problem. As I had mentioned, my phone got submerged and as a result, quit working.

I was able to get it back to a somewhat working state. The O/S seems to be working fine and all my data is still there. It just gets " no service"

and also I can not seem to access the phone via USB anymore.

Wifi seems to work fine.

Without USB connectivity it would seem that I have very few options as as to what I can do.

Would it be cheaper and/or possible to replace the main board on this phone.

Are they available?

This phone is now completely experimental, so no worries.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrackerTeg:
Funny you mention submersion as that happened to my phone a few weeks ago. Here's what I did to bring it back from the dead.

1) Remove battery and SIM

2) Soak the ever living piss out of it with isopropyl alcohol (thanks bedalus for this tip)

3) Bury your phone in that state in a small container filled with new kitty litter for a day or so. I suggest unscrewing the back piece which houses your antenna (not the battery cover) and have it in a separate layer of kitty litter in that small container.

4) Put it back together and enjoy your revived phone.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GT-19020T:
Thanks for the Advice.

I had not heard of the isopropyl alcohol trick.

I did put it in a bag of rice (after removing the battery and sim) for 24hrs and that is what revived it to the state it is in now.

This happened over 2 weeks ago now, so I'm guessing it is what it is at this point.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrackerTeg:
The rice is SLOW to absorb moisture and that's why I said cat litter. It took me a few tries to get mine fully functional but the steps I listed are sure fire. You can still salvage what you have man. No need to get a new phone if you haven't tried every little cheap trick there is. Follow my steps. Trust me.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sysadmn:
Lol, I'd rather buy $5 worth of cat litter than a $150+ phone!

Even days later it's worth a try.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrackerTeg:
Damn straight. The liquid where my phone submerged in wasn't that fantastic and I won't go into details of what it was. My step by step was based on suggestions of multiple people and worked for me. EVERYTHING on my phone works and my moisture indicators are ALL red. Food for thought OP.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] benb70:
I just rooted my Bionic after finally getting tired of any OTA updates from Moto/Verizon. When I went to root it I noticed my build number was 5.5.886, and when I clicked on System Updates, it said it wasn't available and to retry again later. So I found a root method and the files for builds as old as mine and went ahead and rooted.

I used Safestrap and installed a ROM, the CM10 for ICS Leak by DH from here. Well it didn't work. I cleared cache/data, put it into safeboot and flashed it. It said it installed correctly and everything but after I rebooted the phone it did the droid bootloader then a blank screen with the keys and backlight on. I left it there for around 20 min to see if it was just taking awhile to boot.

I then rebooted back into recovery and turned safeboot off. I didn't restore my pre-root rom, rather went back to factory. This time when i clicked on System Updates, it found one and updated. So I figured maybe that was the problem. I repeated the procedure and still got the blank screen. I figured it may be the ROM not working with my phone so I tried another one, and 4 more after that, all with the same result.

Is there something I did wrong? I can still get my phone working by turning safeboot off, but no ROMs have worked yet. Could it be that I updated with an OTA after rooting?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] benb70:
Got it figured out. Just used RSDlite to flash .902 then OTA to .905.

Although this app is cool. I can't seem to keep the preferences I set. Every reboot I have to open the app and just exit out of it for it to see my flash duration and interval. It's set to 1 & 1. So it just gives me a quick 2 blinks. But overall I'm pretty satisfied with the function and doesn't seem to consume that much more battery.

Sorry. I figured it out. I comprehended the details from the creator of the app. It seems that when you have the phone on and using it the flash just flashes away like crazy. But when the phone is off the settings are used. Kinda annoying but this app is nice. I pike to annoy people with it when its dark.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zmore:
As most of us already know, Samsung's SAMOLED displays are more efficient than LED-backlit LCD displays (HTC One X, Moto Razor, etc), because backlit displays are always on even when showing a black image (no local dimming yet?), whereas AMOLED only uses energy when individual pixels actually need to emit light. What I didn't know until today, though, is precisely how much battery you could save with AMOLED by using dark-themes instead of bright light-themes & wallpapers, etc. I had assumed the difference was in the low single-digit percentage range, and I assumed wrong :)

I simply timed how long it took the battery to drain 5% with the screen always on at various brightness levels and while viewing an all white or all black 720p image fullscreen in QuickPic. All tests were performed on a freshly-rebooted AT&T SGS3 running CM10 Nightly (20120911) with a 2.5-month old stock battery. 4G, WiFi, & sync were enabled. No CPU hogs were running.

I used the following to log the phone's battery level every 10 seconds via adb over wireless. (If I were to do this over again, I'd instead spend a few hours writing a simple app to automate the process for hands-free accuracy, instead of doing it manually):

$ while true; do printf "%s\t%s\n" "$(adb shell dumpsys battery|grep level|awk '{print $2}')" "$(date)"; sleep 10; done
98 Mon Sep 11 15:59:30 EDT 2012

CONCLUSION:

In the best-case scenario, a SGS3 with its SAMOLED display showing dark content instead of light content gains about an extra 3 hours of screen-on battery time, no matter what your brightness is set to. A backlit LCD display would show no difference. So, in order to squeeze a couple more hours out of your battery, it's smart to use DARK wallpapers, DARK ROM themes, DARK App settings, and DARK-themed Google Apps (like JustinBean's Inverted GAPPS package :highfive: )

And here's a screenshot my spreadsheet just so you can see the data:

Experiment over. HTH.

very interesting information.

i've used devices with lcd screen and the gs3 is my first amoled screen. my impression was that i noticed the display wasn't always the number 1 battery drainer on my old atrix like it is on my gs3. even though oled based screens don't use as much battery to display blacks, during average screen usage most apps use lighter colors apposed to darker colors so this really can't be taken to its full advantage. fortunately there are some apps that i use very often like tapatalk where you can apply a dark theme and save some juice.

mabey in the future as oled screens become more popular, mobile developers will take advantage of darker themes.

2. What description number; 4.08.1400.5, 4.14.980.2, 4.10.708.1, etc. ?

What would be a great help would be if you read before posting.

Go and find the forum for your HTC first.

Then read all the 'stickies' and search as well.

Make sure that you understand what you need to do and why you need to do it.

That way you will have a much better chance of getting it right and knowing why.

Finally, try out some of the fantastic custom ROMs as they are so much better than the HTC standard one.

I noticed that in all the roms I have tested, all had busybox binaries ranging from 1.18.2 - 5

Having the latest busybox binary ensures compatibility and smooth functionality of our phones.

Updating busybox is an option, but having the latest version from the start is cleaner and more efficient

Here is the latest binary compiled by Linus Yang

Its more optimized towards the android platform and is compatible with the V6 supercharger

Tested it myself :good:

If you want to root stock with this installed, just replace the busybox in the files folder from Doomlord's rooting toolkit with this one
