Status Modifed on new phone?

Here is a possible reason for STATUS MODIFIED. I also had a NEW S3 phone which worked fine for a couple of months. the "STATUS" was always normal. But after a recent and normal OTA process, the STATUS became MODIFIED and i could no longer initiate OTA. Luckily i have 2 samsung S3's and one samsung NOTE II for testing.

I was using a 64gb SANDISK ULTRA micro SD card (i had about 5 gig of data on that card). if i removed that 64gb card and then restarted the phone, the status was NORMAL and all was well. Reinserted the card and the MODIFIED problem came back. so i FORMATTED the 64mb card. then i restarted and the status was NORMAL. Then i added data to the card and restarted the phone. WHOOPS, again the status changed to MODIFIED.

NEXT TEST. i switched to a 32gb card from samsung. (its the only 32gb card i had). I formatted the 32gb card. STATUS was NORMAL. i then added data to the card and restarted the phone. The status was NORMAL.

Long story short, it appears that the primary issue is the micro SD card. In my opinion it is specific to the 64gb cards. I know that there were issues with 4.0 android operating sytems and 64gb cards and 4.1 solved that issue. but perhaps there is some leftover issues that have not been resolved.

Bottom line, change your SD card to 32mb and status should be normal. In the very worst case (in the event my solution does not work for you) you an remove the back cover of the phone and then remove the SD card. then restart the phone without the SD card. the status will return to NORMAL. then slip the SD card back in without restarting the phone. Your SD card will mount and function normally AND your status will still be NORMAL allowing you to do a normal OTA if you wish to do so.

Don't think so... I have a 32GB (never switch to other), and at first it was Normal, then after a few days/week, it got Modified...

i'm paying for the hardware not software

i understand it must be frustrating to expect a new handset but recieve a refurbished one.

but in my opinion i'm paying for the hardware not software,

aslong as the hardware is all functioning like new who gives a Faark what firmware it has, my first instinct when i recieved my SGS3 from vodafone was...

ODIN + Siyah

then started looking for a good custom ROM!

i second that, mine has 16gb sdcard not rooted, updated to jb stock rom, after a week its say already modified. thus its means theres a bug with jb rom?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sesuko:
Hi,

I'm fairly new to the community and to the aspect of modding my Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 (YP-G70) US.

I've done a great deal of searching for my answers but no results yet. I need to speed this up so I'm asking for your help!

My Device's History:

Stock: Gingerbread OS

Current: CM9's ICS (CyanOgen)

Everything worked perfectly fine on Stock but I got bored and wanted to explore my options and see just what features I was missing out on.

Besides, I feel any Android device should rightfully be able to update to the latest firmware, much like Apple's IOS or Sony's PSP (I think I just dated myself).

I absolutely love CM9 but it has two very fatal (and apparently common) flaws:

Broken Camera

No Hardware Acceleration

These are two huge problems for me as I depend on my camera to record life's precious moments; I'm huge on that.

Google Chrome requires Hardware Acceleration or it will just display white screens and nothing more. So I'm missing out on what I see as the best browser.

My Question: What is the best ROM out there for this device (YP-G70) that includes a working Camera and Hardware Acceleration?

If you can at least provide me this, I'm fairly certain I can figure out the rest.

Thanks very much for any input, I look forward to getting to know this community!

(The App is AMAZING!)
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
No yp-g70 ICS ROM has a working camera or hardware acceleration yet
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] baladev:
... which basically means that your option at present to have a working camera and h/w acceleration are GB based roms
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
GB does not have hw acceleration
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] hanjosep:
yes but flash works on GB :D
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] baladev:
is rendering videos in hardware not h/w acceleration?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sesuko:
GingerBread doesn't have HW Acceleration on any ROM?

I've grown attached to the ICS look. Are there any GB ROMs out there that have the ICS theme? I'm strongly considering Chip v1.5, any thoughts or recommendations?

I'm also noticing some ROMs don't include a kernel. Which kernel is best for my device? I thought "Daily Driver" was the right one (US) but I have the dedicated hard-home button so it advises an International kernel instead...which makes no sense. And I can't find another kernel so far. Any thoughts?

I guess I'm trying to optimize my YP-G70 whilst trying to maintain an ICS look. Is that possible?

Edit: What do you think of Chip v1.5 ROM + rj's custom kernel for my YP-G70(US)? Seems to work for me, is it the recommended build or..?
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] alljokingaside:
Chip's is slim and stylish. It's my daily ROM and it's fantastic. If you have the Int'l version with the physical home button, the you should use rj's kernel. If you have the capacitative home button, then you need Entropy''s kernel. The nice thing about rj's is that you'll be able to enable linux swap.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sesuko:
Based on a wiki about the device, if your model name is YP-G70 you have the US version. Yet I have dedicated buttons instead and "Daily Driver" kernel wouldn't work for me, so do I have International version?

So confusing.

Either way I setup the following: Chip ROM and RJ Kernel. I now have a working camera, a slight ICS feel, but not sure if I have hardware acceleration since the only way I knew to test that was Google chrome app - which now I can't install on this version of android...fantastic!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] alljokingaside:
Google chrome as well as hardware acc. is a no go
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] DZonikg:
I have chrome installed on CM10 and it is just an awerage mobile browser ,dolphin beta blows it away in every aspect,from speed to page compatibility..dont see why manu people cry about that..i bet when they install they want be using at all.

Not having hw hurts only if you ask me battery when you play video becausee its done on cpy.

I use chip rom ..like it the most.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Sesuko:
Yea, I'm liking Chip ROM so far. Could use an overhaul and make it look more like ICS. Though I can't complain too much..

I'll just give up on Chrome then if it's that bad.

Thanks for all the help everyone~
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] dstarfire:
If you like the ICS look and feel, you could always try IcyFusion, a gingerbread-based rom with an ICS theme. Unfortunately, it's no longer being developed, and the last version has to be flashed via Odin, and I could never get it to install properly (though other people have, apparently).

Another option is to install a third party launcher that has ICS themes available for it (GO Launcher was my favorite).

Finally, if you really like ICS, you could just wait for somebody to get the drivers working on it. I know a couple of devs are well on their way to getting the camera working, and bluetooth has already been fixed (though some people are still experiencing bugs and glitches from the patch).
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] gskillivenom:
For the 5.0 , Chip 1.5.1 is the best ROM by far , very smooth , fast , camera and HW acc. Works. Also some gameloft games seem to be not working on ICS Roms like Asphalt 6 , so thats another reason to be with GB till we get a fully working ICS/ JB ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Scymynd:
sorry im just trying to clarify something. so you're saying that you have US version with capacitive home button. but daily driver kernel doesn't work so u used rjs and it works? im asking cuz i have US version also but entropys isn't working for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Higgs_Boson:
It's not quite as simple as that. The number YP-G70 refers to the SGP 5.0 that was generally released to Western markets.

However, the North American version has all capacitive buttons. The European/non-North American Version (aka - International) has a physical home button.

I have the Korean version labeled YP-GB70.

It is identical to the International version (YP-G70) in appearance. I believe the camera is the only difference.

The Korean version has a 5.0megapixel camera.

In short, if you have a North American model, you need entropy512's kernel. If you have an international or Korean model you need rj's kernel!
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] dosdude1:
Stock-based only

If you want a ROM with full HW Acceleration and fully working camera, you will need a stock based ROM. The best of these is probably the Eryigit ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
I think only CM10 has Hw acceleration or at least uses it properly
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Mevordel:
Yes. HW acceleration (not to be confused with GL in games) didn't exist until Honeycomb (but of course our player doesn't have that), and we don't have kernel support for it in ICS so far.

However, since ICS/CM10 doesn't have camera working, you're kinda stuck. But GB doesn't really need acceleration, so you'll probably be fine there if you need a camera.
[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] Supermaster34:
Actually the galaxy s II had some hardware accelerated GB builds. I'm not sure whether it was stock or a custom rom though. Also I think the nexus s also had some form of Hw acceleration

hello everybody!

i have a question..

firstly, you must know that i am owner of a Samsung Galaxy Note N7000. I bought it two months ago. now, Samsung has released the new Galaxy Note 2.. And here is my question, Can i exchange my Galaxy Note and some money for a Galaxy Note 2? I googled it and i didnt't found anything, but, on some galaxy note 2 reviews, i see some comments like "I cant wait note 2 go on market, so i exchange my galaxy note n7000 with it!

[General Questions and Answers] Rukbat:
The problem is that their English is worse than yours. "I cant wait note 2 go on market, so i exchange my galaxy note n7000 with it!" is actually "I cant wait note 2 go on market, so i can sell my galaxy note n7000 and buy the Note 2!"

As a former cellphone store owner, I can tell you that unless you were a very good customer (maybe you'd been upgrading phones with me for 10 years), I wouldn't exchange a phone with you. And if I did you wouldn't like how little I'd give you for yours, even if it's only 2 months old. It's used and I have to sell it as used, so it's not worth very much to me.

Selling it privately will get you a lot more money. (A dealer might give you US$50 for it, and I'd give you that much too. Of course a dealer might tell you he's giving you more for it, but then charge you full list price - or even more - for the Note 2.)

I also have this phone. Tried using different Rooting software to no avail.

rooting

yep, have the same phone with same problems as with you guys.. though i found a different way to boot up the phone towards its "factory s

et-up" : turn off your phone, then after a while, simultaneously press volume down key and power button, it should bring you to the set-up i mentioned..im quite hesitant to tweak at the settings for it might break my phone, though i never found the "download" setting which ive seen in other phones has that setup which you could upload certain files in relation to rooting the phone.. Again i turned off the phone, this time i pressed volume key up and power button, and the Triangle sign with the exclamation point inside it (most known as the warning sign) with the android mascot beside the warning sign appearing on the screen, may be this leads to that "rooting" enigma we have.. hope this helps, im not a hacker but hope this leads to something.. keep me posted you guys.. thanks

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bozzykid:
You don't need a microsim for it to work afaik. It will work on any "AT&T" phone. And it should work on the GN since it is pentaband.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] patruns:
SIM card size does not dictate frequency.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Even if 1900mhz is available, I'm sure that T-Mobile would prefer you stay on the surely more stable 1700/2100mhz combo at this point in time... likely a SIM issue though.

---------- Post added at 11:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 AM ----------

But his old SIM probably doesn't support 1900mhz HSPA. Yes, he doesn't need a Micro SIM just to get the frequency, but he likely does need one of T-Mobile's

new

SIM cards that's properly provisioned for the 1900mhz connection. I think people are just getting confused over the fact that T-Mobile is pushing the Micro (soon to be Nano also) SIMs w/ 1900mhz for unlocked iPhone customers. It doesn't mean they're only used for iPhones, it just means that it's the primary reason they're switching frequencies and offering these to those customers specifically.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
"Better" how? And T-Mobile uses 1700/2100mhz combo, not just 1700mhz.

Most people would prefer 850mhz and 1900mhz because its interoperable with AT&T's frequencies, allowing a wider range of devices to be used on T-Mobile.
