What is T-Mobile Galaxy S3 SGH-T999

I know this seems like a dumb question but I was looking to root my Tmobile Galaxy S3 and I was reading the directions and in one of the threads it says how to root the "T-Mobile Galaxy S3 SGH-T999". I just want to make sure that this is in fact the phone that I have before I continue.

1) Can anyone confirm this?

2) Just so I am understanding the terms used in this forum, what is Wind, Mobilicity, and Videotron? Are these Carriers?

Just to be clear, what brought this question up is that I am following this link: "- [Root] How to Root T-Mobile Galaxy S3 SGH-T999!". Just making sure here.

3) Another question, right off the bat, this link shows you how to boot into Clockwork Recovery. Does this mean the phone has Clockwork already in it or do I need to install that before this? I rooted my LG G2X and you had to flash clockwork mod recovery first. Anyone?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Android_Monsters:
Is your carrier T-Mobile?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheKid1:
I am going to say Yes because I have Simple Mobile which from what I was told runs on T-Mobile's towers?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kevroc:
Isn't there more than one T-Mobile?

Yes, you want the T999 (T-Mobile USA Variant).

No, you have to install CWM.

The easiest way is with the "toolkit"

If you take off the battery cover and pull the battery it says the model number

wind, mobilicity, and videotron are Canadian carriers for a very similar phone

Heya guys!

I am a complete noob,and obv didn't spent enough time understanding the process,but please help and I promise I won;t be that stupid ;p

What I did :

Install Drivers,Odin,download CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_LPH-v5.2-CWM5 kernel which seemed like the one for my phone.

Flashed it and it looked like there was no error,but the phone didn't restart automatically. It can go into download mode,but I am not sure what to do from there,completely lost and panicking. And the worst thing I forgot to do a backup.

Unleash the flame but please help. :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HAXTREME:
What you installed was probably not for your device and hence the bootloop.

Download a stock firmware for the i9100P model from sammobile.com (4.0.3 to avoid the emmc bug) and flash via Odin. That should get your device back to life to start with.

Once you've done so follow the procedure in this link to get rooted

I know that with the huge steps forward for other aspects of CM10's development this might not seem like a big deal, but I really miss the CRT Screen-Off animation. I was forced to go back to CM10 quarx-nightly-0924 because I could not get the custom kernel and unified ROM to perform reliably on my phone. I have an MB525 (SOC) with the above nightly, rooted with SuperOneClick, running full signed gapps from 0726. I have located numerous guides on decompiling and recompiling framework-res.apk and editing the XML of the bools file but have been unable to successfully recompile it after editing. I am getting really frustrated. Has anyone succeeded in creating an update.zip or have an altered resources.arsc file that can be inserted into the framework-res.apk in order to produce the desired effect? One that works with 0924 nightly for Green Lens? Or perhaps some help in properly making the changes myself? Any help with this would be appreciated.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashoks89:
Desired effect? You mean CRT off animation? Just go to developer options > set window animation=1. Tada!
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armydog13:
That would work if I was on the newest nightly. All my animation settings ARE set to 1x. I am on the 0924 nightly. I do know how to read. That answer has been provided 17 times by 22 people. :) I had to go back to it for the stability. This is my only phone and I use it a lot for work as an EMT so I needed something that I knew would just work. But I can't find how to integrate the CRT screen off animation on that specific build.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armydog13:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquid150:
Okay, I am really sorry if this sounds negative or like a rant, first off. I really want to get into theming. I have been trying for weeks, possibly months, to figure out how to do certain things. I have only recently been able to successfully make a zipthemer mod, and that's very easy. I really need specific help. The tutorials that I have seen are not specific enough, as they assume that you have prior knowledge of things like SDK and ADB. I am a completely clean slate. I have been completely unsuccessful in finding a step by step tutorial that I can actually follow to get the things done that I want to do. Maybe it's just me, but I have been literally hours searching for it. I have asked for help, but never get any because people tell me to go research how to do it.

I want to do only two things now...I am running dark paranoid android and I want to change the circlemod battery from the stock to white. I have the pngs, I just don't know where to put them or what files need to be edited. I also have no coding experience, so I need fairly specific help to learn what things need to change.

I also want to change the clock in the status bar from the ICS blue to white.

That's it....I know it sounds like it should be simple, but it's not to me. I have tried and tried to find the answers on my own, but have been wholly unsuccessful. It has left me feeling jaded and frustrated, leading to this thread.

Can somebody please point me somewhere that will teach me what I need to know with kid gloves? I want to really get into doing this and participate in the community, but I fail time and time again. I have tried to find pre-made themes to do what I want, but everything is usually too deeply modded whereas I only want to change a few things. Please help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
they go in the systemui.apk /res/drawables-xhdpi folder. If there is already a circles mod there, you don't need to code anything. The status bar clock color is in styles.xml of systemui.apk. The color code for ics is #33b5e5, so change it to #ffffff.

Here's the line of code you need to change. https://github.com/android/platform...r/packages/SystemUI/res/values/styles.xml#L41

change @android:color/holo_blue_light to #ffffff.

This is called hard coding, and in an ideal world, you'd change it to @color/status_bar_clock then add that value to colors.xml, but i know google will never optimize their code that way :P
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquid150:
Thank you very much. I didn't know which XML to look at.

I am pretty sure I tried putting the mod in that folder but it didn't take for some reason. I have looked pretty deeply into any other place they could be and can't find it for some reason.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
Look in the /drawable folder in systemui. If the mod is present, you should find a stat_sys_battery_circle.xml in there.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquid150:
Thank you I will check it out.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
No problem. I'm writing a guide for my site on theming that's aimed at both beginners and advanced. I'll link it here when I'm done.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquid150:
Any idea why when I flash white numbers into phone.apk it doesn't change anything? I am not in a place I can play with XML (no computer) so I tried something else.

Does pa/cm10 use a different apk?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vicino:
Phone.apk dial numbers used for "During a call dialer" so you have to change Contacts.apk dial numbers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] artvandelay440:
Yep- he's right. The ones in phone.apk are for the in-call dialpad.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] liquid150:
Is there a fairly specific tutorial thread that I can turn to for editing XML files? From my very limited understanding I have to decompile it and work through it myself. Do I do this through ADB and push it? Is there an ADB tutorial to do things like that? I was hoping somebody here has a fairly specific noob-friendly tutorial.

My issue is that most of the tutorials that I have seen just say things like "use X tool and decompile." Well, I don't know how to do that. lol.

Thanks to everyone for all your help, and also to anybody else that helps in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] vicino:
For decompile:

*you will need to have Java runtime installed*

1.download http://minus.com/mwgtTbmZd

2.create a folder c:\apktools

3.Take the zip and unzip all 4 files to c:\apktools

4.You will need to pull the framework-res.apk from the rom you are working on. Copy it to c:\apktools

5.Rename apktool.jar.1.4.2 to apktool.jar

6.Open a command window and make sure everything you do from now on is while you are in this folder c:\apktools

* If you don't know how, just open command window and by use this command ( cd.. ) until you are in ( C:\ ) driver then ( cd apktools )

7.In command window type: java -jar apktool.jar if framework-res.apk

You only need to do this once, unless you are working on a different Rom

8.decompile framework-res with apktool: java -jar apktool.jar d framework-res.apk

make any changes you want

9.Now compile: java -jar apktool.jar b framework-res

If you get error compile it with apktool version 1.4.3, So what I do at this point is rename apktool.jar to apktool.1.4.2, and then rename apktool.jar.1.4.3 to apktool.jar

10.Once it is done compiling you will need to go to c:\apktools\framework-res\dist and you will now see your new framework-res.apk

Just remember to copy any apk you want to decompile right into the root of c:\apktools

--

Now put your new for example framework-res in flashable zip (attached) and flash by using Rom Manager aka CWM.

Note that framework-res.apk should be inside framework folder, and SystemUI.apk inside app folder.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fapstick:
Hey all,

So after successfully going S-off on my own phone, I was unable to do so on a friends. The problem now it seems is my linux box does not see the phone as /dev/ttyusb0 when plugged in.

lsusb shows as:

Bus 001 Device 016: ID 05c6:9008 Qualcomm, Inc.

But I am unable to complete the LazyPanda Unbricker because it does not see my phone. ADB devices does not show it either.

I have run modprobe qcserial many many times, as well as plug and unplug, hold power for 30 seconds etc etc to no avail but no /dev/ttyusb0.

So what are my options here? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Really frustrated.

Upon further investigation the Qualcomm USB modem is registering

[11087.431154] usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial_generic
[11087.431160] usbserial: USB Serial Driver core
[11087.434594] USB Serial support registered for Qualcomm USB modem
[11087.434839] usbcore: registered new interface driver qcserial
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fapstick:
For the archives:

I was able to get the unbricker to work finally by using a different distro. Apparently older versions of Ubuntu server don't work. You must unplug any usb to serial converters as well because they will be bound to /dev/ttyUSB0.

run

sudo modprobe -r qcserial

Plug your phone in then run

modprobe qcserial

type dmesg and look to see if your phone is bound to /dev/ttyUSB0

if it is, you are good to go.

Hope this helps anyone who had the same issue as I did.

Hey guys! First of all thanks a lot for all your support and suggestions. Me and my buddy have been working hard on our new update and we just pushed it to Google Play. Along many improvements, the most noticeable are:

* Major UI and speed improvements.

* Trending shows tab replaced all shows tab.

* Added background updates. Application is no longer blocking.

* Fixed widget design.

* Several bug fixes.

Now, on to some personal answers.

We followed your suggestion and switched from tabs to a pager. Also we added background updates so the application is no longer blocking.

Thank you for your input but we actually started developing this application after using TV Show Favs. We didn't like the need to login to access the application, and we also wanted a Google Calendar synchronization. Those are the main differences between the applications. Also I think that TeeVee has a more "in-your-face" presentation, valuing simplicity and ease of use, but that's a biased opinion I think :)

It was a bug that was fixed with this new release. Thanks.

Yeah that's on the to-do list for our next update :) Thanks

Thanks a lot buddy.

TeeVee was made to follow the airtime of the shows where they originally air.

Unfortunately we don't know German, if anyone could help us we'd gladly accept it.

Sorry but that is not in our plans until we change the API, which we expect to do sometime soon.

Thanks buddy, I'll clean up the strings file and PM you regarding that.

Thanks a lot for your input. We worked on the widget design a little bit on this update but it was not our main focus. We will try to correct that on our next update.

Thanks buddy!

Wow that seems like a filthy bug, I'll look into it and send an update in a few days. Thanks a lot.

You can either tap the "+" while on the My Shows tab or add shows in the Trending tab.

You mean on the search? Because we've replaced "All Shows" to "Trending" so it's easier to add a large amount of tv series you currently watch, and it's ordered by popularity.

Thanks a lot for the feedback guys!
[Android Apps and Games] CuriousTux:
I mean when you are in the my shows. Shows with The in the title put them in the T letters instead it should disregard The from the name. Some of my show examples are The Big Bang Theory which should go with the B's, The Simpsons S's, The Voice V's. Hope that explains it. I also have the problem with shows listed a day late so tues shows are listed for wed and so on. Also if possible when we search for shows can we have an x in the right hand corner to clear the search results so that we can search for the next item without having to backspace the whole search term thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Masterwork:

Hi everyone! Thanks a lot for your feedback, over the past week TeeVee has had a major improvement due to your bug reports and suggestions. We've just released an update on Google Play ( yes, another, sorry you guys :) ) which addresses the following issues:

* Fixed major bug where the week day wasn't shown properly (Like the Walking Dead showing on Monday, it's now fixed).

* Added a clear text to the search field.

* Shows beginning with "The" are now presented with the "The" on the end (The Big Bang Theory -> Big Bang Theory, The).

* Some other minor bug fixes.

Also I'm aware that the application is crashing quite a bit when using Advanced Task Killer or other sorts of task killers. We'll look into it and publish an update in a few days.
