[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hampsterblade:
I followed the instructions and ran the scripts in the second post. now it's saying hardware id missing in windows

windows cannot identify the device plugged into the samsung mobile usb composite device
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hampsterblade:
OK, I managed to work all that out, and my IMEI did not exist at all. I'm at the step to insert it, but I don't understand the hex conversion part.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Uncle Irish:
(skipping the 8) Start at the top left number and go one row down diagonally to the right to get your number

Hopefully this screenie will help illustrate. If there is only 1 number in a row, the first number would be a zero
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Uncle Irish:
Also, sounds like you need to use a more current version of CWM.

I use TWRP which can be found in the development thread. Works very well
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hampsterblade:
Thanks for all the help. I'm on CWM Recovery v5.8.4.5 should I replace that with TWRP?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Uncle Irish:
Your recovery version is fine, so something else caused the borked IMEI.

Using a different recovery is up to you really. I prefer TWRP because it has nice big buttons and has never steered me wrong. Either CWM or TWRP is a suitable recovery. Give it a try and see if you like it. If you don't, you can always go back to CWM.

Did you get your IMEI issue resolved?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hampsterblade:
I gave it a week to sink in after, and my network has at least been stable now, but I'm stuck on EDGE. Sometimes It will connect to HSPA+ for about a minute, but quickly drops down. I did run the tool to generate a QCN.

I think the problem may actually be the APN settings for straight talk, or even straight talk in general. I'm just going to switch back to t-mobile monthly 4G once my curent set of minutes expires.

There is a Q&A forum for a reason you know... maybe to post questions in it? :rolleyes:

---------- Post added at 09:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:51 PM ----------

Right, now this is in the correct section I'll answer.

1. your phone is still XE but you are running a ROM built from the normal Sensation's base RUU - so in the build.prop and xml files that the information is pulled from it says "HTC Sensation Z710e".

2. If you are running a custom ROM (which you clearly are - your running InsertCoin) then you are already rooted so trying to root again will throw up an error.

3. Software update in Android settings wont work because you cant get HTC OTA updates from custom ROMs.

4. If you want to update to ICS (you are cuyrrently on Gingerbread) then you need to go to kohr-ah's firmware thread and flash the 3.33 firmware then flash a custom ROM from a custom recovery (I recommend 4EXT recovery) - there are guides in the Sensation General forum on how to do this, just follow those.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

You do not need to show the world your serial number and imei. :eek:

The OTA method will not work on your phone because you are s-off.

But that is a good thing,because you can flash whatever you like. :)

If you want to get to ICS,then follow THIS GUIDE to upgrade your firmware.

After that you can flash any combination of ROM and kernel from the DEV section

:)
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Battery drain was a huge issue for me. I finally found a solution . I've tried different settings, different roms, different kernels and I still had the drain. What worked well for me was buying a extended battery . I got a 3600mah mugen. I can now finally use my device without worrying that my battery will run out.I highly recommend a extended battery.it has made a huge difference for me! I can use my device for two days without charge!

from HTC sensation, soff, 3.33 firmware, viper Rom, sense 4.1, mugen battery. please press thanks if I helped in anyway. :)
[Android Themes] miles_muso:
Hi All,

I work on a cruise ship and only have access to satellite internet, which is very slow and VERY expensive (£10 for 170 minutes!!)

I'm looking for a dual clock widget, something like the standard HTC Sense clock but with the ability to overlay a smaller version in one corner. I want the current time as the main clock (I go to different time zones almost every 3 days) and the UK time in the smaller display (so I know what time to call home!)

As I don't have hours to trawl through all the many options when I google 'android dual clock', could anyone offer any suggestions?? And, IDEALLY, could you post an image along with your suggestion so I don't have to load another page (that's REALLLLY slow!)

Thanks in advance

I wanted one more like the usual fliplocks, just a dual version. But this might work as a separate widget on the home screen.

Download and use this app in here, it will tell you whether you have an effected chip.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
Yes. All ICS 4.0.4 firmware is affected by the brick bug.

You can however safely use it.

I'll advise you to flash a custom kernel after flashing the firmware
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Poroto:
Do you happen to know if cm9 kernel (used to be on siyah which i knew it was safe, but then decided to flash cm9) is affected by the emmc bug ? i thought no, but i downloaded an apk from the playstore and it told me i was in danger of brickbug.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jokesy:
Most custom kernels are safe to use because they are not affected by the brick bug.

CM9 kernel is 100% safe.

---------- Post added at 07:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------

the apk only tells you the type of emmc chip (hardware) shipped with your phone.

Some emmc chip are affected /insane, which means any wipe on any kernel with emmc erase command on (e.g, Samsung's ICS 4.0.4 kernels), will lead to hardbrick.

Some emmc chips are safe no matter which kernel you use with them.

Note that the app only tells you the status of your hardware (emmc chip) and not the software!

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Poroto:
Thats what i did, went from stock 4.0.3 to cm9 4.0.4, once u flash, you will get a new kernel (which in my case, was cm9 kernel) which in most cases, is safe from brick bug.

The best way to avoid the emmc bug is to get off stock immediately. Flash a custom kernel and you'll be safe.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrankI897:
Hi Guys.

Well, first of all, before someone jumps in and yell at me for such a question, I apologize in advance but I already know that is impossible to do it, but I still have some doubts about what could be some possible solutions for my problem.

In resume, I had my Captivate with Eclair 2.1 Stock rom, I wanted to use CM9, so I took KK4 Stock Rom from this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3

as requested in the CM Wiki - Captivate Full Update Guide, then flashed mtcarey's Kernel with the ClockworkMod Recovery 5, at that step, before flashing CM9, I made a Nandroid Backup just in case something went wrong, and also because I liked GB, I used GB for about 2 days just to give it a try, then I flashed CM9 and everything worked great.

Now, I have made a Nandroid backup of CM9 too, both backups are in my PC too; And here it comes my problem, I know I cant use CWM to restore KK4 Nandroid Backup, cause I already tried and It throws me an error flashing boot img, and end up in a boot loop, (I think that's pretty normal isn't, Things we need to do to learn :P ), also, don't know if that's because different CWM versions, cause CM9 comes with a newer version of CWM than the one of mtcarey's kernel.

So, Is there anyway I can take the Stock KK4 Rom and make it CWM compatible?, Or everytime I'd like to get back to GB I'll have to do all the Odin thing, flash mtcarey's kernel again, and then use my Nandroid Backup to really get back, and then keep making Nandroid backups to keep updating my Roms.

BTW, I don't care about apps, Call logs o SMS; I only care about contacts and I have them all in my SIM; And again, apps are ok cause Nandroid backups cover them, and I don't usually have that many apps, just the necessary ones.

Note: I'd like to Switch between this Roms cause, I really like the look of GB, I prefer the Camera app too, and in the 2 days I used it, I don't know if It's just me or not, but I found GB handling my battery more efficiently; And Of course I like CM9 cause has more settings to edit, more customizable, etc.

Thanks in advance!

PS: Sorry I Didn't notice I can't post Questions in this section, can some admin move it to Q&A section? Would be very appreciated.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Once u r running CM or similar, in order to go back to GB Stock firmware or Roms based on that, you must use Odin or Heimdall to flash back to GB...because the partitions are different. Stock firmware = BML/rfs partitions and CM, AOSP, AOKP, MIUI and such like = MTD/ yaffs(2) partitions.

Flashing from GB, froyo, or eclair to CM or the like only requires u to do full wipe and then flash the Rom twice in CWM...first flash in ur current cwm. second flash of rom in that rom's cwm recovery that comes up from first flash.

U can only restore nandroid backups when u r back on that Rom u were on when u made the back up. And u need to be using the same cwm recovery/ kernel u were using when u made said backup.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FrankI897:
Many Thanks man, well that entirely clear my doubts, I suppose if I just keep using both Roms time to time, of course It wont be every week but so much time more, I just need to keep my Nandroid backups of both Roms, to do all the back-to-stock-flash-again thing and restore the backup and continue using the rom from where I left it... or in any case, switch from CM9 to anther custom ROM... from now I'll stay in CM9 till CM10 reach an stable version.

Again, thanks man, really appreciated.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beggars1923:
I dropped my Nexus and cracked the screen. I am a TMobile customer and pay for insurance. Asurion just offered me the SIII in exchange for my cracked Nexus for $130 deductible. Looking for advice on as to whether I should do the exchange or pay $200 to have the screen replaced.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] miketoasty:
I'd personally stick with the Nexus. I bought it for a reason (Latest updates, and AOSP) not for the hardware so I would just want my Nexus fixed and back in one piece.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beggars1923:
That's what I'm thinking. The additional $70 for replacement of the screen is a cost I'm willing to take to avoid delayed updates and TouchWiz
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Prod1702:
I do Believe CM10 is on the SG3 but i would pay for the screen as well. The SG3 is a nice phone but its only going to get left behind at one point where the nexus will not get left behind for along time.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lowandbehold:
$130 for GSIII

$475 resale value of the GSIII

$345 left

$360 new play store Nexus with 1 year warranty from Google

That puts you at $15 out of pocket for a brand new Gnex with warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beggars1923:
I don't want to deal with the hassle of selling a refurbished GSIII.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lowandbehold:
Tell you what, you get the GSIII and I will trade you my Gnex. You are still saving $70...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TJBunch1228:
Damn, tmo insurance covers a gnex? I didn't think it would since it's not a tmo device.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beggars1923:
They cover it but they won't replace it with another Nexus since TMO doesn't sell it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TJBunch1228:
Yeah I figured as much since they offered you an S3. I am surprised, I didn't think they'd insure a device they didn't sell. I was considering ditching the insurance on my line since I got the nex, but will probably leave it now since I know that.

S3 is tempting... I would go for it, just for the bigger screen. If you don't like it, it's easy to sell and replace with another gnex. But I get serious phone ADD, so I like changing it up.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] i n f a m o u s:
I work with Koreans and I'm pretty sure they all know about the GS III, (they even know about the Galaxy Note II and it hasn't even been released yet) but they've never heard of or ever seen a Galaxy Nexus. When they first saw my phone they told me it looked a lot better than the GS III and also commented about the clean appearance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] laker666:
Did you have to talk to a live rep or just submit the claim online?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Because it doesn't have the ugly samsung logo in front of the phone, huge + imo.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pdxtechdoctor:
I think the question of the hour is, are you on tmobile contract with insurance or the new prepaid insurance? A lot of us are probably wondering about that...

Also personally I would go for the SIII... My girl just got one on a upgrade for her sero account. I hate touchwiz, but CM10 is out and I would bet CM11 (Android 4.2) wont take very long after the ASOP is released.

I also wouldn't worry about device support. Samsung has already sold over 20 million of them and it will probably be samsungs top selling phone. Too many people will have them for the developer community here to stop supporting them for some time. I upgrade every year or so myself, I would definitely trade out my Gnex for a SIII..

I really like having some hardware buttons so I don't have to use something like LMT for fullscreen and having the SDCard slot is alos a +
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gypsy214:
That insurance company will cover any phone you may have. It doesnt matter they even cover the iPhone for that matter. It doesnt have to be a tmobile phone but of course they will offer you a tmobile phone. But for a Gnexus a s3 thats good... oh and one thing they will send it to you brand new not old. because you are having a different phone replaced. so get the s3 sale it buy a gnexus and have some cash on your pocket. Good deal
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] blestsol:
Hassle of selling a s3? Crazy talk.

I just called about my Galaxy Nexus and they only offered me the Galaxy S 4G and HTC One S. They told me those were the two T-Mobile approved as similar to the Nexus. Not sure how they think those two are comparable to the Nexus but they told me the Galaxy SIII is not on their list to replace the GNex.
