Alright,

I'll first start by telling you my story so you guys can retrace what I may have done wrong during the process. I'm a noob but I made a lot of research before posting here and I'm posting because it's been 2 days of trying to make things work with no results.

My goal was to root the phone and install CM10 so I flashed CWM in download mode and I rebooted in recovery. Then, I installed the zip package (CWM-SuperUser-v3.1.3) and rebooted. I transfered CM10 (The ROM dates from 30/09 so I guess this is a pretty recent version, I tried others anyway) on the root of the phone and I rebooted in recovery. When I tried to run the zip package from the internal sd card, I got an error message. All I can remember is that it was looking like this: assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device")

I did a lot of research on google for this error and everybody was suggesting to flash a stock ROM and start all over. At this point, I was getting a little frustrated because I had done a factory reset for nothing so I decided to abandon the project and wait for the upcoming Jelly Bean update.

I rebooted the phone and when after I entered my google informations, Google+ always stopped working but the operation completed. I went to the Play Store and always got a server error message. It was working an hour before so I started to fear something was going on. In fact, it's been like this for two days and it never worked again. I made many factory wipes and I tried to flash a stock ROM with Odin. Odin is always giving me an error message: Complete(Write) operation failed. All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

I tried with an earlier version of Odin as a guy in a thread was suggesting, didn't work either. I changed USB port, everything! The only solution I think could work would be to get the Play Store APK file and flash it with Odin but I'm unable to find it.

PS: I also tried to clear data/cache of Google services and Google Play Store. Somebody somewhere suggested to clear Google framework or something like that but I don't have this in my application manager. Guess this could be indicating that some stuff is missing?

I'm very disappointed right now.. I assume that I was in a bit of a rush by trying to root my phone a single week after I got it but I honestly think I did everything right... I really need your help!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
First, you need root access. Second, you need an app like Root explorer. Third, you need to edit the build.prop. More specifically, the line "ro.product.device"

Edit that so it reads d2att

Reboot. Should be good after that.

You may need to be on a stock, rooted ROM, maybe not.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pelteux:
I got root access. Second, root explorer is an app on my computer? Cause I can't get access to the Play Store so this could be a problem for the moment... Third, alright, what do I change in there?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
System/build.prop/ro.product.device

Change that to d2att.

Root explorer is an app for your phone, not your computer.

Try upgrading cwm to 6.0.1.2. I've heard some have had good results with this. That link is for ROM Manager, which you just need root for.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pelteux:
If I understand correctly, you think something I did modified this parameter so the phone isn't recognized as a d2att anymore? For the play store, would it help to rerun gapps?

I'm I able to do the modification without root explorer? How do I install the app without play store?

EDIT: I just found a thread where a guy with a Bell phone (also I747 and from Canada) had a problem with this also. It seems it was written d2can (probably for Canada) instead of d2att. He was getting the problem while installing cm10 but I still don't see what this could have to do with three market?

Could you just give me a little more info about modifying this. At least a link? I'm a noob I told you ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rpavich:
What he's saying is that you need to modify that particular file (ro.product.device) in your phone. For that you need to use something like "Root Explorer."

You don't need to get it from the play store; you can get it on the internet also just seach google for it. "root explorer.apk" and load it.

Just google it, install root explorer and mod the file...it's easy. It takes longer to explain than to do it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jethro650:
Although your right on the file explorer to change the build.prop I'm not sure why you would advise trying to find ripped copy of a paid app. Aside from not supporting a good dev there is also the real consideration of finding an .apk that may have been modded and not in a good way. To each there own I guess. There are lots of free file explorers on the play store that will more than suffice to do the job such as es file explorer that is pretty popular.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rpavich:
You have a point; I wasn't aware that Root Explorer was a "paid only" app and I'd certainly not encourage him to not support the devs...I wasn't thinking.

My mistake; go with one of the free ones for now since you can't access the play store.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jethro650:
Crap, I forgot to add that you can access the play store from any computer, just Google play store and sign in with your Google credentials and find what you want and install it. It will auto download and install on your phone. I did this last night, bought and installed nova prime without opening play store on my phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
If the store won't recognize your phone, how are you going to push the install to it?

Did you try the ROM Manager app i linked?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pelteux:
Alright,

I was able to install file explorer, open build.prop and do the modification. I rebooted in CWM and tried to install CM10, same error : assert failed: getprop("ro.product.device") == "d2att" || getprop("ro.build.product"") == "d2att E: Error in /emmc/cm-10-20210930-1849-SKANK-d2att.zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.

I modified the two lines where "d2can" was written instead of "d2att". I would be more eager to get my market back for now...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
This should allow Odin to work properly. Your post said that Odin wouldn't work because of an error. This should correct error so that Odin works.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pelteux:
Nice! The phone is softbricked now! Nothing appears after The galaxy S3 logo. The phone seems to be running since I hear it connect to the computer via usb but nothing appears. What do I do now..............................................
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pelteux:
Yes but the "d2att" error was on CWM. Now I can't access the phone at all since it seems to be softbricked.

Here is what I see when I try to flash the stock firmware into Odin. No error message but nothing completes anyway...

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> I747UCALEM_I747ATTALEM_I747UCALEM_HOME.tar.md5 is valid.

<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

<OSM> Leave CS..

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

EDIT: Now, I obviously need to do an adb pull to get build.prop and change the line the way it was before. I absolutely have no clue how to do this. Any advice would be welcome.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Is there a blue box lit up, says something like "com"in it? If not, Odin does not see your phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pelteux:
Odin always sees my phone, this is not the case. I always see the COM:5 while in download mode.

Toward the end of the first post is a section on Odin. Try those things.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pelteux:
Odin is currently the least of my problem... The modification I made in the build.prop softbricked the phone so I try to bring it back!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Flashing the stock ROM should do that for you.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jethro650:
I think he can't flash a rom cause he gets an error in odin or it doesn't take cause it doesn't recognize the proper device id because of the messed up build prop? Not sure, not too familiar with odin.

With cwm 5.5.0.4 I believe it has access to external sd card. What would happen if you downloaded the same CM10 version you originally flashed to your phone on your computer and extracted the build prop and put it on your external sd card(if you have one and an adapter) along with a cwm flashable version of twrp recovery(which i have), flashed twrp and rebooted recovery, then used twrp's built in file explorer to replace the messed up build prop with the original, that should give you a booting phone. The only catch is that you would have to a battery pull and manually boot into recovery, not sure what pulling the battery would do, wouldn't want to mess up your phone more....anyone think this will work?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pelteux:
This is unfortunately something I don't have... I have an input for SD cards on my computer but this one is a micro SD
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jethro650:
Do you have adb working?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pelteux:
I just installed ADB and it was working but the phone wasn't in debugged mode in its last state since I did a factory reset.

Aynway... Just wanted to say that... IT WORKS!!!! This thread helped me to get a good stock firmware:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1822308

Plus, the stock firmware in this thread is already rooted.

I don't understand because the one I had was specifically for a i747M and I found it on xda...

This is the last time I mess around without doing a nandroid backup. At least, I can say this whole mess did make me get some experience.

About CM10, there is officially something going on between the d2att and d2can thing. Maybe somebody with more experience than me could confirm.

Thanks for your help!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jethro650:
So happy you got it working, lesson learned, never make a change without a nandroid, and being a moderately hard lesson you'll remember it for a long time. As far as CM10, haven't even followed the thread let alone flash it, loving the unicorns with aokp. Although I would still suggest finding the twrp thread in developement and using it as a recovery, it's very versatile.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pelteux:
CM10 is finishing the installation!!! I tried again with the same error. I upgraded my 5.x.x.x CWM to 6.0.1.2 and it worked.

EDIT: CM10 and gapps installed correctly in CWM but CM10 is stuck with the blue glowing ring during startup for more than 10 minutes. It's been the second time I install it so far (I did a recovery from my nandroid and started from the beggining) and I will try to reinstall a version that came out today if it still doesn't work... If this still doesn't work, I'm going to surrender with this **** cause this really seems impossible... I tried everything so far, I'll wait for jellybean.

What do you think?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jethro650:
This ^^^ another lesson learned tonight. Got so fosused on the build prop I missed it. In another thread it was brought up not to use es file explorer for build prop edits it borks them somehow so.....two lessons in one night...

Are you doing all the proper wipes when flashing?

I LOVE THIS PHONE. I don't care about reviews because everyone is biased in some way.

Anyways, the specs on Motorola's site are as follows:

NETWORKS

WCDMA 1900/850/2100/1700

GSM 1900/850/900/1800, LTE Band 04/Band 17, HSDPA 21.1 Mbps (Category 14), HSUPA 5.76 Mbps

I noticed the frequencies can reach T-Mobile possibly with those bands for 3G. 4G is stupid, just another hype I get better data on 3G than 4G in Florida. Even in Miami it's just pointless to go for 4G on T-Mobile.

NEVERMIND IJUST READ ANOTHER THREAD. Works fine on 21 band TMO Network.

Hi everyone!

I just wanted to ask if it is possible to port the ics rom of Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo V to our Xperia X10i.

Is this possible? I believe it should be easier than porting from Xperia S which if far better than the X10i.

Thanks in advance.

I only use advanced task killer before playing something hard like FPSE with opengl.

i have 250mb free ram.

Stable overclocked with 1.8ghz but sometimes there will be some crashes like when speeding or lowering clocks, or sometimes FPSE will crash after overclock and you will have just to open it again without issues.

I have a low class SDCard so i havent tried any Swapper.

I dont use ram manager or anything of those silly things :p but i readed NXT light edition comes with v6 supercharger.

I did some benchmarks ago with 1.7ghz i had better 3D Score but with 1.8ghz i had better CPU score.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rsjc741:
129C? As in ~250F?

I think you're a bit off there, but make sure your not downloading anything over mobile data.

Playing HD video makes your GPU or CPU (based on rendering methods) hotter. Sometimes very hot to the touch.

If there's a evident dip in battery life, then it could be an issue with the CPU running when off.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] simms22:
i regularly reach the automatic shutdown/safety temp of 110C, by choice. at that temp the cpu shuts itself down. 65C is well withing the normal range, and well below the throttle temp. feel isnt a good judge of temperature. feel is relative. try this experiment and you will understand. take 3 glasses of water, one hot, one ice cold, and one room temperature. put your right hand in the hot water and your left hand in the ice water, for several minutes. now put both hands in the room temperature water. your hand thats was in the hot water will feel like its in cold water when put in the room temperature water at the same time. your hand that was in the ice water will feel that the room temperature water is cold. if the air around you is cooler, the phone will feel hot, if the air around you is warmer, the phone will feel cold.
