[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] bales3795:
This is getting ridiculous. I also called Verizon, of course tech support is clueless. They didn't even know about any update for our tab since May 2012. Their answer was to Wipe Data/Factory Reset, then try the update..... of course, didn't work. Unrooted, stock recovery... Couldn't be more stock than I am right now. Update will not install. What gives?

Anyone have ANY suggestions on how to kick this thing off? Starting to think I should have stuck with my OG galaxy tab..... Which has Jelly Bean running on it by the way....
[Galaxy Tab 7.7 General] electron73:
Very interesting news. Do you have it rooted yet? Is there any way to root the sucker? Because then it's super easy to grab the rom and make it available for everyone here!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xxjrsmith3xx:
well the day I've never wanted to happen but it came ... drop my phone thinking it was in my pocket , very weak phone I say the S2 handle these dropped way better but oh well ... View attachment 1386142

btw it looks worse in person the flash doesn't let all the cracks be seen.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
Looks like its just the glass? Easy fix.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RaymondPJR:
Why no bumper? I dropped mine just twenty hours after purchase on my way to get a bumper and cracked the screen. The screen doesn't have sufficient protection from the bezel. I don't even think the bezel is metal.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xxjrsmith3xx:
you think so ?? I went to best buy they told me I have to wait 2-3 weeks to get a new one -.- no way I want to wait 2-3 weeks since its back order and they don't give me a replacement I have to give this one in , where can I get a new glass or call Samsung ?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] otariq:
Curious if it has a case and did it fall on concrete. Bad luck that it happened
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] uoY_redruM:
Ah, that sucks man!

Mine is still holding up fine. I'm considering buying like some sort of liquid glass and applying it over mine, since it's so small, perhaps filling it in and hiding it. I really can't see mine at all unless I'm looking so I'm trying to avoid making a drastic decision.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xxjrsmith3xx:
no case just like that and 177.56 to get a new one off Samsung.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xxjrsmith3xx:
yeah all the cracks on the screen I really can't see them but the crack at the bottom right corner :( just bad real bad but phone works perfect I'm starting to get use to it lmao but this does suck
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] princeasi:
I dropped mines yesterday, luckily I had my powerskin case on it! It just plopped and bounced like a plastic cup.

I'm just sayin!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RaymondPJR:
Here is a link to a video. It doesn't really look all that difficult. Just need to be careful.

EDIT: I watched a vid last week where a guy replaced just the glass. Used a heat gun to remove it from the digitizer.http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30227964&postcount=9
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Fly2Deaf:
Dropped my phone for the first time and look what happened. Only from about two feet off the ground.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] otariq:
Damn it fell on that top right corner. no case? Was it on concrete
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Fly2Deaf:
Yea I know. Its was in a parking lot
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] CiViCKiDD:
Hah I dropped my s3 for the first time yesterday also. Got home and switched from the car's bt to phone, and tried grabbing 4 bags when this slipped face first onto the concrete.

My thin elago case literally flew off, lucky for me I only slightly screwed up the screen protector and scuffed one of the corners. Going to invest in a big tpu case...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kingston73:
I feel bad for all of you who've broken your phone, but at the same time some of you are the same one's who give me crap about putting an otterbox defender on mine and ruining the looks. I've dropped mine twice now, once getting out of my truck (approx. 4 ft) and the other at waist level. Both times zero damage, my case is a little scuffed but that's it. It's worth it to me to "ruin" the looks and not break my phone, even with a warranty you still have to pay money and wait for the new one.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] princeasi:
Lol, last week my dumbass somehow slapped my phone out of my hand while transitioning from sitting to standing. And this happened twice within 3 days lol. Luckily I had my powerskin on.

I'm just sayin!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RaymondPJR:
Yep, I hope Samsung doesn't do this again. The original and the S2 both had good screen protection from the bezel on the edge where it really counts.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] gu3ssvvhoo:
The S3 isn't very forgiving when it's dropped in any way other than flat on its back. Mine feel from my bed down to the floor hitting a dumbbell making contact to the bezel, leaving a dime sized dent. However, it managed to survive a swim in the lake this past summer!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] psykhotic:
Mine fell two feet onto carpet, landed on its back, about a week ago and my heart stopped! A couple days ago it got flung off my bed and hit the corner of a plastic stool with its screen but was fine. That picture is going to make me even more paranoid. It looks like its JUST the front glass though. I'm starting to consider ordering a just-in-case replacement glass...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DeeXii:
How is that case? Do you like it? Is it too big?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] clninja:
Alot of people aren't very careful with their $600 phones.......no cases.. being careless with it... seems like alot of things can be avoided by simply treated it like a $600 phone and being a little more paranoid/proactive about keeping it out of danger
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] princeasi:
I like the case very much. It does add a considerable amount of bulk. Pros: noticeable added battery life, great protection from drops, feels good in the hand with good grip. Cons: soft fit silicone (I like tpu better or hard fit), battery will become noticeably warm and hot on hot days while discharging, added weight & bulk. The added battery life coupled with the added protection is a go!

I'm just sayin!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Shayd93:
All dropped S3's break, It should have armored glass and not this Gorilla cheap crap,
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] negativedrew:
I've dropped mine twice already and no problems. The first time I had some cheap plastic fosmon case on it and the second time it had one of those S wave tpu things on it. Maybe I just got really lucky twice.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mrbmg:
Dropped mine twice. I have the otterbox... not sure which one it is but it has a rubber sleeve under the hard case. Has a pretty decent scuff that is white on the top left corner but all is good. my heart skips a beat while the phone is mid-air.. that's for sure.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] death1246:
he posted a picture of a picture using a galaxy s3 O.o
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] flash_27:
Dropped mine today. Took it to Best Buy...they said if I don't get it after 10 days, they will give me a a $650 gift card and I can get any phone I want. It really depends on how you drop it. I dropped mine waist high, one of the corner hit first and cracked the whole screen.

I'm so glad I purchased the Best Buy warranty.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cobraboy85:
I have seen phones break screens just sliding off a lap. Any phone with a glass screen its a crap shoot if you drop it. All chance. I dropped mine several weeks ago from chest high and it smacked HARD on the concrete... dinged the side bezel a little but nothing more.

Like I said... all chance. Saying something is weak because it broke is ridiculous. Does somebody have a weak femur because they broke it? Or was it just the right impact and force in the right place?

Get a case, be careful with your device lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] flash_27:
Yea, using my case is probably a good idea.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bitcloud30:
just what like others are saying...CASINGS :)

how much does a phone case cost? at most would be 70$(i think) i prefer "OTTERBOX and ROKFORM" (my choice: OTTERBOX) yeah i know it

would be bulky but it is enough to protect the 600$ worth of device..geez..its not hard to pull a 70$ out from your wallet? this way you can

protect the FRAGILE screen of the 600$ phone. Putting screen protector would help the screen be in tack incase the screen shatters.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Paging Dr B:
I dropped mine a month back onto concrete face right on the corner of the phone and thankfully it didn't break. It landed face down and i was terrified. It scared me enough to buy an Urban Armor Gear case. I once again dropped it at disneyland but this time it just bounced softly with UAG case. I'm normally very careful with my stuff but somehow this phone seems to like the floor. The moral of the story is: Buy a case. If not as long as the AMOLED panel isn't broken you can always just replace the glass by itself for dirt cheap.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Laserbait:
I have a Moto Defy, and never had a case for case for it. It's been dropped several times with no ill effects, and it still looks pretty much brand new. I wish phone companies would make their products less disposable - especially for how damned expensive they are.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] flash_27:
I think casing is optional if you have insurance lol :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] crazaytalent:
dropped my S3 two weeks ago in the Body Glove case i bought for it, screen cracked in the corner, later that same night, phone fell off the end table by my bed... a tiny extra crack appeared around the same area... i shutter to think what would've happened had i not had a case... its just a glass crack but ii fear a DIY fix... and dont want to shell out 130 buck for a asurion replacement... since crack is relatively small, thinking about getting a full sized screen protector and just investing in an Outter Box or something... i basically have almost two year before i'm due for an upgrade... need the phone to last... glad the crack is only glass and in the corner out of the way... but still an eyesore... i fear over the next two years more drops, possibly making it worse or even completely ruining the lcd digitizer thus forcing me to shell out that deductible money....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] razielpr:
And it's supposed to be gorilla glass 2 so more stronger but i see it's just a lie to sell a product that's faulty. I have been lucky i triped with the charger and the phone went flying straight at the wall corner and the battery falled out and the back cover went to the other side of the room and the phone was facing down when i picked it up it didn't have a scratch and the screen was perfect thank God.

[Vibrant General] jaydoubleyou:
The vibrant i was rooting needed to be reverted back to stock in order to root. I launched odin and download mode on the phone and put in the tar and pit files to revert it to stock. After doing this, the phone was soft bricked, when i turn it on it only shows the Vibrant screen and then turns off and on again. Recovery mode won't boot up, it gives a fuzzy screen, however Download mode still works. I tried multiple times to use odin and flash a stock rom again, but it resulted with the same vibrant screen turning on and off again.

I reinstalled and updated drivers, tried using the command prompt to launch recovery(this led to "error:device not found"), tried one click unbrick programs, all to no avail.

Is there any other solutions? Thanks
[Vibrant General] samsgun357:
First thing I must ask, what is the device model number? Does it have front camera?

I must ask these questions as there have been a lot of people posting in this section with a T-Mobile Samsung galaxy s 4g (sgh-t959v) or with the Telus galaxy s vibrant (gt-i9000m.)

If you indeed are in the right place, T-Mobile galaxy s vibrant (sgh-t959) you can try the vibrant AIO toolbox. You can DL it in this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=31279153

You can find more info about it here but I think the DL links aren't working, that's why I gave the other link.

Toolbox is no good :/ still have the same issue. usb debugging may not have been turned on...i'm pretty sure it was on because the phone was upgraded to gingerbread via kies before

edit: yea it has a front camera and it's a t959
[Vibrant General] samsgun357:
No its a t959v, the t959 never got upgraded to gingerbread and doesn't have a front camera unless you added it.

I am not the original asker but I as well have a problem and I don't want to start waves of simillar questions. Soft Bricked my phone yesterday by overlooking a most likely common mistake. I flashed CLM Recovery but accidently selected the wrong model UGHHH! Now I get the T Mobile Screen and I can get into download mode, thats it. I am aware of this Vibrant AIO ToolBox but Im not sure how it works and I am aware of ODIN which I have also never used. I downloaded ODIN and it does recognize my device. It looks pretty simple to use although I may be wrong. One of my major problems is I can not download any Stock OS Roms because the range at about 200mb and I am currently staying with a relative that has dial up. I dont know if I could get something faster through email. What I would like is step by step instructions on how to get my phone back to stock or somewhat functional. Any help would be greatly appreciated as we all know how hard it can be without your phone. Thanks, J

[Vibrant General] Toast6977:
Your also in the wrong thread. Don't flash any files from this section. This is for T959 not T959v.

You can find files to flash your phone back to a working state over in the Samsung Galaxy S 4G section of the forums.

You were just sliced bread before you were burnt by the toaster.
[Vibrant General] samsgun357:
Head over to the SGS 4g section and look through the stickied threads. They should have the files you need as well as instructions. The steps for your device are probably identical to the vibe but I don't want to steer you wrong. Your biggest problem will probably be getting Odin to recognize your device. Try different USB cables and different com ports. You might have to manually load drivers on the computer. Good luck.

No tickee, no laundry!
[Vibrant General] LancerEvoDrifter:
Be careful with odin

what stock are you trying to flash? 2.2.1 or 2.2? Because some stock can fry your motherboard, like my vibrant, and then the phone is unusable....

hi i try to upgrade mu vibrant t959 in android 2.2 to android 2.3.5 and after odin fail my phone never turn on again i press all bottom and the screen is till in black if somebody know why i need to do for turn on again let me know or tell me if my phone is damage.thanks
[Vibrant General] ferhanmm:
what files did you put into odin to upgrade to 2.3.5? the newest stock rom the t959 officially got for odin was 2.2.

if your phone can still get into download mode, you can use the vibrant AIO to return it to stock.

You can download AIO here - http://d-h.st/kWH

Here is the AIO thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=954509

Sounds like a brick, sorry.

Try plugging into charged and see what you get.

You also might try a jig to see if you can get it back in DL mode. Also try heimdall one click.

If all else fails go to

They do JTAG repair and also sell the jig.

[LG Nitro HD] orbit417:
Hi All, I'm quite new to the world of android and was wondering if anyone has created some sort of road map for going from one version to another ? For instance, I'm running Gingerbread v2.3.5 Kernalpan1c HD 0.4. To get to this point I used superoneclick 2.x to root Gingerbread v2.3.5 then installed rom manager v5.0.0.6 and flashed kernalpan1c's rom. I believe providing this kind of information will give everyone who's looking for that next step a nice starting point or a way to back if they get lost.

The reason why I bring this up is because I'm just that person, I'd basically like to get to the next stable fully functional rootable version of either Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0x or Jelly Bean 4.1x. and I'm really not sure how to get their. I've read through countless threads and between the various Ice Cream Sandwich roms available I'm not 100% sure what my next step should be.

Thanks in advance
[LG Nitro HD] hereric:
Go to http://get.cm/?device=p930

That site has links to nightlies (which are compiled every night for our devices with incremental updates. You can either get the CM9 stable release from there, or grab the latest CM10 nightly build.

You then need to download a GAPPS package from HERE: http://goo.im/gapps . Depending on which CM version you got, you either need the Jellybean or Ice Cream sandwich version.

Place both these zip files on your SD card.

You have to use clockwork mod recovery. You can enter it by turning your phone off, then holding the power button AND volume down.

You can then backup of your current rom if you care to keep a backup.

Wipe Data, Cache, and format System using CWM.

Once that's done, select "Install from SD Card" and install the CM zip file. Once that completes, repeat that step but for the GAPPS zip.

Reboot your phone, and congrats, you have ICS or JB

**If you want a stable version I suggest CM9 stable, OR you could download HONO!'s CWM flashable ZIP of the LG official release**
[LG Nitro HD] orbit417:
Thank you Hereric for a such a clear and detailed response. I can't wait to give this a whirl, if all works out I should be on CM9 or HONO!'s CWM flashable ZIP by this afternoon. Time to dig through the threads to determine which rom suite's my needs best.

One last question, with my current setup (rooted/Kernanpan1c) I'm able to tether wirelessly via the entitlement change in the properties file and my mobile provider (att) has never been the wiser. Would you happen to know if this is still possible with CM9 or HONO!'s CWM flashable ZIP ?

I just found the answer to my CM9 question on a development thread

Thanks Again
[LG Nitro HD] orbit417:
Update !!!

I was able to install rooted cm-9.1.0-p930.zip without a hitch :D I followed Hererics instructions to the 'T' and the everything went swimmingly. I was very surprised to find the install from start to finish took about 30mins, excluding the re-install of all my apps.

One of the big issues when developing custom ROMs seem to documentation regarding SOC and drivers or rather the lack thereof. How does intel stack up in this regard.
