[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 7gismo:
I don't know about those with their Galaxy Note II's who want to pay way too much for an unlock, but I personally chose the Google Playstore option:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwyLDEsImNvbS5zcG9ja3kuZ2FsYXhzaW11bmxvY2siXQ..

Just install the app, open it, it will tell you your phone is network locked (which you already know, anyways). If you press unlock, it tells you to pay for the Pro version which costs 2euro (in my case), so I paid, after that let the app run for a 1-2 seconds or so and...phone UNLOCKED!

Rebooted the phone with another simcard (my was originally locked to irish Vodafone), which was O2 and it works alright.

GalaxSim Unlock from Spocky is the way to go!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChrisNee1988:
I turned off my phone (vzw galaxy nexus) today to replace the battery and it wouldn't boot back up. It was stuck on the Google screen. I've tried almost everything i could think of. I was running AOKP jb build 4 at the time with imo's lean kernel. I've tried doing restores and installing fresh aokp b4 and ics milestone 6 ROMs. The ics rom/restore goes into boot loop and any jb rom/restore gets stuck at Google.

A few odd things i did notice was that the first time i tried to wipe dalvik cache, cwm recovery was frozen for a few minutes and i had to battery pull but after that it was able to wipe it quickly. Another thing is when i restore my backups, there is a error in restoring /data.

Anyone know any fixes? I haven't tried installing a stock image yet since I'm not home but the situation doesn't look good.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Winesnob:
How long did you let it sit at the Google screen? If an 'improper shutdown' is detected (no idea what constitutes improper), the JB boot loader does a full scan of the file structure to make sure everything is intact. I've had it take several minutes now and then, and others have reported longer before the Nexus animation begins.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChrisNee1988:
I let it sit for a couple of minutes, but oh well i fixed it by flashing a stock Google image. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Impossible to brick Nexus,always there is a way to revive your phone :).

youll have to flash factory image via fastboot to get it to work again

you can pull your sdcard data in recovery to your pc because after flashing via fastboot youll lose all your data even the sdcard data

Is there a downside to renaming a nandroid backup folder to something more descriptive than the date & time of creation? I'd like to have a better idea of what I'm looking at when selecting a backup to use.

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
Based on my experience, yes there is. If you need a good name then do it at the time of making the backup. I had real problems restoring backups when I changed the name later - it appears that the folder name may well be used in the MD5 checksum creation process.
[General Questions and Answers] posaune76:
OK, thanks. I'm new to the whole rooting process, and I don't recall getting the chance to pick a name. I'll look for it the next time I try something out; worst case, that's what "writing things down" is for, right?
[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
I guess it probably depends what you use to make the backup. I use 4ext Recovery Control.
[General Questions and Answers] Theonew:
You can rename the folder to whatever you like as long as no spaces are included in the name (this applies to CWM Recovery & others).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] noob4lyfe:
Hey xda community,

I have an S3 T999V from Wind mobile.

The phone is rooted on 4.0.4 (IC) and I was simply trying to update to the new release of JB.

Heres what happened:

1. I was notified by Kies of the new software update. And clicked upgrade.

2. The phone went through the process but once it booted an error saying that installation could not complete

Results..

- Now, I see slightly changed keyboard (guessing its from jb).

- The notifications bar has smaller icons and a new brightness bar has appeared.

- An icon has appeared in the top left of the screen. It looks like an "i" that has been crossed out and a circle around i (similar to a do not enter symbol)

The phones settings still shows 4.0.4.

Can anyone help guide me through the updating process?

Appreciated !
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mike.r.olson:
The official JB update has not been released yet. The update that you're attempting to do is not Jelly Bean.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
You just updated to VLALH2, latest official ics. Congrats!

As mentioned, JB has not been released yet. For the T999V id guess itll still be a while.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] noob4lyfe:
That might explain the build number ending in VLALH2.

Can you identify the 'i' icon im getting in the top left corner of the screen?

^ thanks to mike.r.olson as well !
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
It vaguely sounds familiar, but cant think what it was. Do you have anythingin your notification window? Usually icons in the statusbar are there to tell you to check notifications.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] noob4lyfe:
Its been there ever since the upgrade.

My notification bar is clean. Not quite sure what it represents :s

Note: the icon is on the LEFT side. While most of the other icons related to the notification bar are on the right

---------------

Its a new Feature !

One of the options is 'notifications', beside power saving.

If turned off: An 'i' crossed out appears

If turned on: Your on going applications are sorted to the left side of the screen

Many thanks DocHoliday77. Problem solved.

Really hope this Jelly Bean gig comes around soon. +1
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] z0phi3l:
Forget the name, but it's that feature that checks to see if you are looking at the screen before dimming it or turning it off, maybe?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] noob4lyfe:
Problem NOT SOLVED you guys.

The NEW ICS update removes the rooting I had done prior to the update. I no longer have root access ability as Titanium Backup indicates !

Do I use the same Samsung Toolkit method to get my root privileges back?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Crisisx1:
Yes just re root your phone... Any time you do an official update you will most likely loose root
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ferlogan:
ALL YOU have to do is unroot your phone :D then try that update you'll tell me :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] noob4lyfe:
~ Confirmed~

I used the same method to get back rooting Privileges.

Thanks again guys :good:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] icase81:
So I have had iPhones before, and I have a set of Klipsh Image One headphones with a mic and remote. I'm not really caring about the remote, but the mic doesn't work on the SGS3. It worked on my HTC Titan WP7 phone, so I thought it was some kind of standard, but apparently not.

I've done prelim research and found that the stock in-ear headsets that come with the phone have the mic and ground reversed from the iPhone (WHY would you do that?). Now the issue lies in that I have very small ears, and just about any in-ear phones that I use for more than 5 minutes cause my ears to physically hurt and turn red, even the stock phones with the smallest cushions on them.

If I have to make an adapter just to use the mic, I will, but I'd rather not. I don't care about spending another $100 to get DECENT headphones that have a mic in them, since I use them for work almost every day. Any ideas? I'm looking for something along the lines of Sennheiser, Klipsch, etc, and trying to avoid no-name stuff. Thanks for reading!

EDIT: To rub salt in the wound, my Pantech Burst also works fine with the mic and middle button of the remote. Seems like everyone BUT Samsung uses this standard. Thanks... dicks.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rlatjs17:
There's a thread about it. I think the title has control talk or something. My search function isn't working on XDA right now for some reason so I cant look it up for you.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SumGuyDevs:
So I tried flashing ns4g and ended up with unknown baseband, after several variations on the install order for cm10 I've still got unknown baseband. I wanted to look at logcat on cm10 and can't figure out how to get my adb to detect my epic.

So from scratch (CM10 with unknown baseband):

Reboot recovery CWM-based Revocery v6.0.1.4

Fix Permissions

Wipe cache

Advanced -> Wipe Dalvik Cache

Install zip from SDCard -> Choose Zip -> Nitest_ns4g-1006.zip ->yes (successful install)

Advanced -> Reboot Recovery

Install->choose->ns4g-radio-LF2.zip (successful)

advanced->reboot recovery

Install->choose->ns4g-radio-LF2.zip (successful)

advanced->reboot recovery

Install->choose->cm10AIO-LF2-nitest06-roamfix.zip (from dropple's post 7:04 pm on 10/5 updated 7:47, successful)

reboot system now

That leaves me with

Baseband Version: unknown

Kernel version: 3.0.44-CM10-nitest-nrdidy@ubuntu #2 Sat Oct 6 04:12:35 WIT 2012

Cyanogenmod version: 10-20121005-NIGHTLY-epicmtd

Build Number: cm_epicmtd_Dropple 4.1.1 JRO03L test-keys

and stuck in airplane mode

so my questions are

1: CM10 and adb for logcat, (I downloaded the latest this morning for android sdk, google usb driver, and changed the debugging settings), how do you get a logcat?

[update]

I was able to get adb connected by using adb over network option (system settings -> developer options -> adb over network)

then adb connect 192.168.1.64

[/update]

2: how to I get rid of baseband unknown? is my process wrong?

(I tried posting in dev but I'm not up to my 10 limit yet)

UPDATE: Solved!

To get back to a working modem what I finally had to do was to reflash stock FC09 in Odin, and hit the phone EFS Clear. This caused me to have to do sprint handsfree activation (and there are rumors it can fry sim cards on other devices), but got baseband back!

followed the flash to stock instructions here -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1052813

For adb open a command prompt and enter

then type "adb logcat"

@andy_nu: tried flashing the kernel, then FC19, then reboot recovery then cm10 nightly. Didn't work, also that's exactly how I was trying to do logcat and when I try adb devices it doesn't detect my phone, even though the phone claims to be in debugging mode.

@xboxfanj: flashed the attachement and then odin'd the modem, but I think I had too many checkboxes and will be trying that again tomorrow

http://darkierawr.com/Android/Users/xboxfanj/nexusmodempatch-CM10-0808_mms.zip

go to advanced>reboot recovery

also for adb make sure you have your android sdk updated to at least r13

type adb devices and make sure your device is online, try different usb cords and ports, toggle debug mode on and off while it is plugged in, try uninstalling the drivers for the phone and reinstall them after a reboot.

install cm10

install the AIO package

reboot,

install this again http://darkierawr.com/Android/Users/xboxfanj/nexusmodempatch-CM10-0808_mms.zip

Logcat Cracked!

Ok I figured out what I was doing wrong with the logcat.

if you do

adb logcat > logcatfile.txt

it will block and continue logging to the file indefinately, basically becoming a live stream for the log file.

If you do

adb logcat -v long -d > logcat3.txt

then it will stop the command once it reaches the end of what is currently in the logs.

Speaking of that Those logs are attached. I noticed there was an error under WIMAXHiddenMenu:

Not sure if it's safe to flash them over the wifi model. Check your model before doing anything else.

You also need to download ODIN.

Open ODIN and place the firmware you downloaded in the PDA section.

On the tablet press VOLUME DOWN and POWER and hold it till it enters download mode, then press VOLUME UP to continue.

Connect the tablet to the computer via the USB charge cable. You should now see something in the ID:COM section of ODIN.

My motoactv is still stock, I assume I would have to root it to do this. But does anyone have any idea how I would find the files that contain the "Best performance" data. The files that contain the "fastest time, fastest mile, most calories," etc. I would like to reset these on the motoactv and a factory reset does nothing to remove them.

I had a GPS glitch while riding my bike, so the device congratulates me for my "best" mile when I had only gone 50 feet. Now the device shows my fastest mile as being 75 miles an hour! Something I can't compete against and it is messing up all types of data. Can anyone help find the files and give me some idea how to change the data or delete it?

First thing, I am very very sorry if I posted this in the wrong topic, but I am in an extreme rush.

My phone is Sony Xperia Tipo (Si21), android 4.0.4 ICS.

I don't have a wireless router so I wanted to connect my phone to my PC through USB cable and share my internet to download some things. I found this tutorial which I decided to follow. In it, it said I needed to root my phone. I decided to do it and followed multiple tutorials but later on I found out they weren't working for ICS. I did download Java JDK and Android SDK along with files I needed and the google USB driver.

I found this tutorial from here though and thought it would work since this is quite an awesome community. I downloaded the files and ran the .bat file. Everything was going well and then and my phone restarted (as it should), but once it started again it was very slow (which could be caused by some backup that bat file created and my low phone memory with no SD card in it). That's all fine, but after like 1minute my screen goes black. I push the power button (used to lock/unlock phone) and only those 3 buttons glow on the push and turn off when I push again. All I can do is to pull out the battery and start the phone again. I restarted it a few times and once it acted normal, but when I accessed my galery it was messed up and when I tried xperia galery it was even worse (didn't show 3d well and there was lots of flickering and similar...). After that I restarted it to see if that would fix the messed up gallery and once phone booted screen went black again.

I tried the unroot option in the bat file and it gave me this:

This is my first android phone and I got it like couple of weeks ago so please have mercy on me ...

Hi Y´all.

Did a search on this but no cigar so here goes:

I´ve never had a virus. Neither desktop nor handheld.

As far as security issues go you could almost state that i am a virgin.

The other morning however when i woke up an looked at my phone screen i got this burning sensation in my..... stomach ;) .

Apparently a terminal session was running which i am quite positive i did not start.

The attached screenshot shows the terminal window.

Readability isn´t the best but the line reads:

app_194@android:/ $ export PATH=/data/local/bin:$path​

It looks like something was exported

I Googled this $path thingy and got a couple of hits about running the SDK in a Linux invironment.

Regrettably so this didn´t bring me any closer to an explanation. Much less a solution.

I now hope that on of you guys might be able to provide an explanation so i can figure out if i should be worried, and perhaps what to do about it.

EDIT: Thanks for the input. Looks like i´m worrying about nothing.
