[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] theraker007:
Well this is probably filed under weird forum posts but anyway.. i dropped my s3 a while back and replaced it, all is good. But i have this broken phone sitting around, the hardware is 100% intact, but the screen is not functional.. its black and no touch functions work.

I was wondering if i could garner some kind of use out of the phone, maybe find some way to store movies on it and somehow get them to play on my tv?

is this possible without being able to touch the screen?

any other ideas for my brick?

If you are on stock you could get an mhl adapter and hook it up to your TV, get a bluetooth keyboard and mouse and you now have a cell phone as a media center. Not sure how well it would work but it's worth a shot if you really want to use it.

Read in the official AOKP Official release [Build 3] thread that Galaxy S3 owners coming from Sammy JB leaks need to flash back to ICS ROM before flashing the AOKP to allow wifi tethering and nfc to work as shown below.

It will work if the right precautions are taken.

*if you hanvnt flashed a Samsung job leak and came directly from ICS or another cm ROM.

* if used a jb leak then flashed back to stock ICS to enable your NFC and wifi and then flashed this ROM.

My question is, I am currently on CM10 having previously on stock ICS 4.0.4. Do I still have to flash to ICS before entering AOKP?I do understand I have to wipe factory data, cache and dalvik as well. Any pro wish to help me out here? Thanks alot!:D

Anyone knows how to go about flashing from CM10 to AOKP? Do I really need to flash back to a stock ICS?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bluekz:
OK NVM. got it right the first time. For those wondering if you need to flash to ICS before going into AOKP, the answer is you

DONT!

. I was on CM10 and flashed right away after clearing my data factory reset, cache and dalvik cache. There are no problems whatsoever,so enjoy your AOKP ROM.Currently back on CM10 nightly build as I found that there are more issues in AOKP Build 3 than CM10, but love the vast customization you can get on AOKP though.:D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yanakis:

So I just got some type of OTA update from Verizon, I have an unlocked bootloader as well as rooted. Can I install this update or will it brick? The file is under /cache/fota/update.zip 30.92mb. I thought if you was rooted you couldn't even get OTA's. Any ideas? I renamed the file so it wouldn't update even though it asked me when to install and I entered 10pm tonight to retry.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] guthrien:
It's a pretty major security patch so hopefully someone here puts it in a package for flashing. Someone else said they just unlocked again immediately after but I'm not sure how to best approach it for you.

Rooting doesn't do anything about receiving updates, it's a particular file that is phoning home.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pmdied:
I got the same update but it flashed itself into recovery and then failed to install the update. Says "install aborted"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dbow32:
You are right, I clicked "OK", it rebooted and went into CWM. I clicked "reboot now", when the phone finished booting I got an error message. Hopefully it won't continue doing this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bskarpa:
No I'm on a stock rooted ROM, it tried to install just now and failed as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] techgov8:
This is because you all most likely have a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM and it can only install on stock recovery. If you freeze sdm1.0 it wont keep asking you to update

Tap'n
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mooremh:
I've heard that to be safe, you need to re-lock the boot loader, un-root, and go back to stock in order to accept the updates.

You are okay to be rooted and do a update. I do it all the time, it just unroots you and you have to rerun ur rooting. As for the bootloader i lock it before a update

Really wanted a developers perspective on this. Seeing as how the Rezound and the One X have the same camera sensor (Samsung S5K3H2YX), I was wondering if it would be possible to grab the drivers over from that phone over to ours. Has this been going down with development all along? Are there technical limitations? Are the drivers exactly the same or updated? If it is more recent on the One X would this provide any benefit to us?

Hi guys

I've got a question....

I was running stock 2.3.6 ginger..... but I've find out something

This is a screen of my phone when I was running stock yet.

Look at the kernel version ... It's 2.6.32.9

I was reading this thread..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1156040

and It says this kernel version (2.6.32.9 ) It's the stock kernel of Froyo....

But I dont know how is this possible... because I was running Gingerbread.

(officially)

Then I've flashed this custom rom ( CM10 by epinter ) .... and everything is working good... but I would like to know what the heck happened before o.o

If I was running a stock kernel of froyo... How could I flash a rom based on ginger kernel ( like the epinter's one. ).

Thank u.

[Transformer TF300T General] donny101:
So long story short, I decided to break my routine of doing research and 'flashed' CWM through RomManager and soon after realized two things, one I had broken the adb/fastboot recognition to my tf300t, and two I could no longer boot into recovery (because it was now a prime rec...)

Well after about 3 hours of contemplating on physically breaking my device for a replacement, and a lot of endless Google searches I believe I've found a solution.

All i had to do was add -i 0x0B05 after fastboot and it started to work again,

(I was still able to pull up the menu with power+vol down and choose fastboot mode)

"fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery CWM-Touch.blob"

(of coarse my fastboot.exe and .blob file were in the same directory, and the terminal was opened through Shift+right click)

I've searched and have not found this 'solution' in these forums so I just wanted to share and see if it would work for anyone else

if I am blind and it is here already... sorry for wasting your time :P
[Transformer TF300T General] mikeseguin:
i don't get it, you broke adb/fastboot and could no longer boot into recovery and all you had to do was add -i 0x0B05 after fastboot and it started to work again,

did you do power+vol down then do the "fastboot -i 0x0B05 flash recovery CWM-Touch.blob" command? and if you did it with power_vol down, does how far does your tablet bootup to be able to use this command

did you just power in on,then do the fastboot command

can you post a link to your CWM-Touch.blob

thanks

I made three custom profiles for CM10 for when I'm home, out, or sleeping. However, when I switch to any profile, it will disable what I have checked off but when I go to another profile and that option is no longer selected to be disabled, it doesn't turn that option back on, or on in general. For instance, for home I have Mobile Data, Bluetooth, GPS,and Portable Wi-Fi hotspot disabled. If I go to Out, while has mobile data enabled, but WiFi turned off, it will disable WiFi but won't turn on mobile data. If I go back to home where WiFi is enabled, it won't turn WiFi back on. I hope I made my problem understandable, lol. Anyways, has anyone else been having this problem? And is this a known problem by the CM team? Or could it be something with my phone?

Th's in advise

Have the 10g version.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Wombat:
Most 802.11n products will knock your throughput down by up to 80% if you use WEP or WPA/TKIP security.

The reason is that the 802.11n spec states that the high throughput rates (link rates above 54 Mbps) can't be enabled if either of those outdated security methods are used.

The bottom line is that you can only use WPA2/AES wireless security (or no security at all) if you don't want to throw away lots of speed.

Similarly, WMM must be enabled in order to get link rates higher than 54 Mbps.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] Vosetal:
Speed of connection is defined by slowest device in network, so if you have some other device connected to AP that supports only g standard than all other devices will use this speed.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Izzysoft:
That's not quite true. A while ago I had some "b" devices left, and some "g" devices in use. Both on the same router, that time supporting b/g. Obviously, the "b" devices connected only with 11MBit speed. The "g" devices connected using "g" standard; they didn't reach the full 54MBit, true -- but neither were they stuck at 11 MBit. Throughput was rather around 30..40 MBit for the "g" devices.

So: Yes, if you configure your network for a mixed use (b/g/n), only the slowest configured standard will reach its "full speed". But the others are not limited to the slowest standard's speed -- though they won't reach their own full speed, either, as long as a "lower standard" is enabled.
