CWM

I managed to find a CWM Recovery for Galaxy S Advance, googling it will come up with several results (can't post link),

But I have a problem. Trying to flash the .zip from SD card will start the installation, it says the recovery is replaced with CWM Recovery, and then the phone just turns off. Turning the phone on againg and entering the recovery shows I'm still in the original recovery (Android system recovery (3e)).

The problem is that this seems to prohibit me from flashing custom ROM-s form SD.

Any ideas?

[Galaxy S III General] djsteel3000:
Hi guys,

I just purchased 2 GS3's. One black and one titanium grey. On the 1st night i put then to charge i noticed the black phone's led was shining brighter (red) while charging but i though it might just look brighter as its on a darker surface. Then i noticed that the titanium grey GS3 was not displaying the correct colours for notifications. So i went into setting and changed the notification colours and realised all light colours were not displayed properly, for e.g.. white is displayed as a light blue.

Does anyone know a fix for this (bedsides taking it back as i got them both from abroad) ?

Had anyone else experienced something like this?

Also just to mention it seems like the on/off button has a different feel to it (does not have that click/spring) to it as the black GS3 and also the camera does not seem as sharp.

Any info will be appreciated !
[Galaxy S III General] terranoid:
Screen is Amoled, that's why it looks light blue and not white.
[Galaxy S III General] bbboldy:
He is talking about Led Light for notification not the screen :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] djsteel3000:
The LED light !!!
[Galaxy S III General] gchindi:
There are only 3 colours available in sgs3 stock red while charging, green when fully charged, blue for missed events notifications, what diff. Colours you are taking about?

Are you using any external 3rd party applications to change led colours?
[Galaxy S III General] djsteel3000:
Yes i agree there are 3 colours while charging.

While both phones were charging (red led) it was noticeably brighter on the black phone.

Concerning the white led light on whatsapp messenger its supposed to be white (i know you can change the colour in the app settings). On the grey phone it displays the white led light as a light blue. If i change the app notification colour to display a yellow led light it displays it in a greenish colour.

To cut a long story short the led notification light is not displaying the correct colours......

I have changed different custom Roms so i know its not software !
[Galaxy S III General] gchindi:
It could be whats app issue, coz on normal stock, all required led lights work fine here on JB leaks, not yet tried official JB yet...
[Galaxy S III General] vineet8137:
Try *#0*# on your titanium grey s3 and check if it displays the correct led
[Galaxy S III General] zardoz99:
It's probably a mis-balance of the voltages to the LED. This could be a driver chip or resistor out of tolerance. Nothing you can do about it except replace the phone. I doubt that they would seriously consider exchanging it for a minor fault like this.
[Galaxy S III General] djsteel3000:
Thanks Vineet all working correctly.

OK i took both the black phone and grey phone and observed them both closely . I have realised that the led light on the black phone is visible when off but on the grey phone its nearly invisible when off. It seems they covered the led with the grey colour of the phone and maybe thats why it doesn't show the correct colours.

Im not sure if that makes sense, its hard to explain.

It would be nice if someone else with a grey S3 would comment.
[Galaxy S III General] djsteel3000:
Red, green and blue all display properly but not as bright as on the black phone. Its only the light colours that are not correct like white and yellow.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] romasheg:
I recently found out this: https://code.google.com/p/cm9-wildfire-s/downloads/list

Unofficial ROM of CM9 for HTC Wildfire S. G1345's hardware is pretty much the same as Wildfire S' one. The same Qualcomm MSM7227 CPU and 512Mb of RAM on both devices. Also, here we have Clockworck ModRecovery for G1345, so now it's possible to flash ROMs without a signature of manufacturer. Question: is it possible to port CM9 to our devices, or simply flash with this one for Wildfire S? I think the only difference would be the lack of dual-sim support. I found that as the only hardware dfference between Wildfire S and G1345, however, I might be wrong. What do you think about this?

If you want to re-flash official's factory image, you have to unlock bootloader first,

also grab Android SDK from here: http://d.android.com/sdk/index.html, then unzip and add platform-tools's position to PATH

Did you unlock NS yet? If no, you can reference to CM's wiki:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Nexus_S:_Full_Update_Guide#Unlocking_the_Bootloader

Note: this will wipe all the data including sdcard.

Here are mac/linux's quick step:

Download official factory image from here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#sojujzo54k, then unzip it.

Boot into the bootloader.

Open terminal, and move into the unzipped folder, then type: sh ./flash-all.sh (default flash-all will wipe user data with -w)

Done. :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sfetaz:
The current rom im running that has the problem is cleanrom ultralight, I have had it before on cleanrom and i think some builds of stock roms, dont think CM10 ever gave me this problem.

When I run lux auto brightness and set the slider to a subzero setting, when I run most apps (but not all) the screen goes totally black. One example is setcpu, and it also happens when I launch lux settings. One example where it works fine is nova launcher. If I press the screen on top where the status bar is, and "grab" the status bar, screen reappears until I let status bar go, where screen goes black again.

Basically on most apps using lux in subzero setting causes screen to be totally black but still clickable. Any ideas?

Screen filter app doesnt cause this problem, but lux serves my needs better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Cyb3rGlitch:
Hey sfetaz,

This is the first I've heard of this issue. It sounds like transparency is being lost somehow. I'd take this issue up with the Cleanrom devs, chances are they changed something they shouldn't have.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] quatauta:
Hi,

I have the same issue as described by sfetaz. If I set the brightness to sub-zero (-1 is sufficent), the screen goes to minimum sub-zero brightness (-90) after a few moments in most apps. Sometimes it looks like this happens only if screen content doesn't change for a while. This does not happen if brightness is set to 1 or higher.

I use Lux Lite on a Motorola RAZR HD (XT925) running CyanogenMod 10.2. The issue exists since CyanogenMod 10.2 nightly build 2013-10-19. On 2013-10-18 everything is OK for me.

BBQLog (changelog.bbqdroid.org) shows some display related changes in CyanogenMod on 2013-10-18 and 2013-10-19.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Casper34:
I know 10/20 there was an update for the display. I ran it on PACman with no issues, and I am now on the 10/25 Vanir. No issues with either. I did notice this morning that when I load the default values, that I only load the 2 setting gs I have set, 0 and 2000 or 20000 can't remember off hand. I have my 0 set for -40 and it dims the screen correctly.

This post was made by Vanlandi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] quatauta:
On my RAZR HD (XT925), the problem persisted upto CM-10.2 Snapshot-M1 (2013-11-02).

After flashing CM-10.2 Nightly 2013-11-06, overlays (sub-zero, night/astronomer) mode are functional again.

It had something to do with the overlay. Normal brightness adjustments (>=1) worked as expected. Going to sub-zero or enabling Night/Astronomer Mode, screen content got barely visible after some seconds. When I enabled alternative overlay, the screen went totaly black (sub-zero) or red (night mode). (havn't tried astronomer mode with alternative overlay)

For me, this issue is resolved on the current CM Nightlys for XT925.

Am i right in thinking when i load the RUU it goes back to that stock rom... its not rooted, no custom rom.. just stock.. if you can tell me.. so i just need to run that RUU or do i have to continue other steps after that RUU?!

If you can get back to me ASAP with some answers... i would be sooo happy!!

Hello xda, iv'e done extensive searching on this site and google, however have not found an answer to what im looking for so please forgive me/point me in right direction if allready discussed somewhere...my friend has an unrooted htc evo 4g on sprint and his ex gf somehow managed to figure out how to completely spy on his phone without ever having physical access to it, which until now i didnt think was possible unless you install faulty apps on your own, which he hasnt. he received a blank mms message followed by a basic one word text from her saying "LOL"...now his battery drains fast, everything runs slow on an otherwise fairly quick phone, and his ex keeps sending messages proving she knows everything thats on his phone. she was even able to find a private video he shot with his new gf of them (no further info needed lol) on his phone, and sent him texts commenting on how she was going to do the same moves she saw in the vid with all his friends for revenge. every half hour or so she sends a text telling him his exact location...sends comments on txts he receives...ect...so what is this? how would i find it? how would i delete it/block it from ever happening? im not a complete noob but beginner/intermediate for sure, any help would be greatly appreciated.

(i know i could root it and wipe everything/install custom roms ect, but he wants to avoid rooting for some reason, however if its the only way any helpful info from here would help me convince him)

2) Access to "Build.prop" at /system/

3) Edit as text

4) Change all "SHW-M110s to GT-I9000"

5) Save.

6) Enjoy! :laugh:

For those unfamiliar, some file hosts are redirecting to a petition page at theinternetvshollywood.com and not letting people download the file they were trying to get to. It doesn't appear to affect everyone, and probably only happens to people in the US. It looks like it's been happening off and on since August.

I'm on stock rooted ics fh13. I have flashed to cm9 and then back. And it seems like since flashing other roms my battery isn't where it used to be. Even if weeks have past. Also I make sure the display is on the dimmest setting

Here's and example of my battery life.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] milky1112:
Have you done the battery test? (Pull battery, lay on table.. spin.. if it spins like a top .. Replace!! , test on both sides) Battery do start to go bad over time. Also can download BestBattery Stats, See what's keeping your phone awake. (Things like Facebook notifications, email sync times, even the LED notification light) will greatly decrease battery life no matter what rom your on. How much screen on time did you have (Didn't see that in the screen shot) Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dbldown768:
probably like 40mins screen time. Facebook refresh is set to 'never' with notifications. Obviously i have direct push emails and things, otherwise what the hells the point of having the phone for email.

Why does it look like i have no mobile signal. I know in the past i would get the LoS and my phone would drain like crazy. But normally i wouldnt receive or sent txts during that time. I was receiving txts during this time. Basically grabbed my phone and sat on a train with it - no different then day 1 i got the phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] milky1112:
I agree with the push email, I typically set mine to 4 hours or so (i can always open the app if i need to check it again) , are you in a low signal area? I know traveling sometimes will cause signal to jump (mine does 3 times atleast in my 40 min commute to work) Does look like your signal was gone for a bit.. (Could try a different Modem as well see if it helps in your area)
