[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
If the base changes then you'll want to do a fresh install. I'm not sure what base eschelon is using at the moment since its been a while since i used synergy. But i'd assume hes updating to the latest base in which case you'll want to a fresh install.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] low-tech:
Please please please help. I am a newbie and like a dummy I thought I'd take a stab at this.

I have a Verizon GSIII and did the following.

I unrooted using Casual App on mac following these directions:

droid-life[dot]com/2012/08/15/unsecure-bootloader-can-now-be-flashed-to-verizons-galaxy-s3/

But, like I said a dummy, forgot to circle back to do step #3 and jumped (i think) to #4. So I forgot the step to "Select “Flash Unsecure Aboot” and then “Do It.”".

From there I tried to load the CM10 ROM M2 for Rooted Galaxy S3! [Android 4.1.2] (a .zip) from my SD Card when using Rom Manager. Upon restarting I am presented with the final message:

"System software not authorized by VZW has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and goto the nearest store for help."

Did I just brick my phone?? It seems to me with the limited amount of knowledge on this that I need to unlock the boot loader? Does that sound right?

I'm trying to follow this video:

phonesreview[dot]co[dot]uk/2012/08/16/samsung-galaxy-s3-jelly-bean-verizon-bootloader-unlock/

However, when I goto the download mode (pressing volume up, power and home buttons), and connect via USB, my mac doesn't recognize there's a device connected... even when i have Android File Transfer app up and running.

Any help is much appreciated!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] quantum1:
Volume up doesn't put you in download mode, it should boot recovery.

Volume Down is for download mode. You'll want to find a stock image that's flashable with odin or heimdall and flash that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] low-tech:
Sorry, I mean volume down. Like I said, I'm new. :)

Sorry, just query Google for "Verizon Samsung Galaxy SIII stock image"?

Your help is appreciated.

This thread is probably your best bet. You will need to use heimdall instead of odin if you're on OSX instead of windows, however.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] low-tech:
So, I have a PC next to me, but when I plug in the phone, it's not recognized by the PC or app. Any ideas or software?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] billard412:
Well if you haven't already i recommend posting in the vzw section as they re probably more knowledgeable about your phone. However if I'm not mistaken(and bare with me as i don't know anything about crapintosh computers, but android file transfer wouldn't be used here. You need to get your phone in download mode and use heimdall as stated above and make sure all drivers are installed. You'll have better/faster luck getting this fixed if you find someone with a windows pc. Remember your in androids backyard right now trying to get help doing something from a crapple product.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jimieo:
I hated how the battery percentage took up status bar real estate, but loved that I could show it. So I looked at the Epic 4G Touch for inspiration and figured out how to bring the small battery percent to the Galaxy S III

Decompile SystemUI.apk and go to SystemUI\res\layout and open tw_status_bar.xml

Look (around line 13 in Notepad++) for:

<LinearLayout android:gravity="center" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/signal_battery_cluster" android:paddingLeft="2.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<include android:id="@id/signal_cluster" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" layout="@layout/tw_signal_cluster_view" />
<TextView android:textSize="12.0dip" android:textColor="#ffa6a6a6" android:layout_gravity="center" android:id="@id/battery_text" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/status_bar_network_name_separator" />
<ImageView android:gravity="center" android:id="@id/battery" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" />
</LinearLayout>

Replace it all with this:

<LinearLayout android:gravity="center" android:orientation="horizontal" android:id="@id/signal_battery_cluster" android:paddingLeft="2.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<include android:id="@id/signal_cluster" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content"	layout="@layout/tw_signal_cluster_view" />
<FrameLayout android:gravity="center" android:paddingLeft="4.0dip" android:paddingRight="2.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
<ImageView android:gravity="center" android:id="@id/battery" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
<TextView android:textSize="7.0dip" android:typeface="sans" android:textStyle="bold" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:layout_gravity="bottom|center" android:id="@id/battery_text" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/status_bar_network_name_separator" android:shadowColor="#ffffffff" android:shadowDx="0.0" android:shadowDy="0.0" android:shadowRadius="1.0" />
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>

After you do that just save, recompile and get it back on your device.

I highly recommend a blue battery icon for this mod. With the stock TouchWiz green, it is very hard to read the percentage.

Here is a screen shot of mine

For anyone looking for the Inverted PlayStore v3.9.16, here ya go... I've been running this for past 5 days... works perfect on my SR. I didn't flash, but opted to extract the phonesky.apk from the package, reset permissions (rw.r.r), and pushed to my /system/app folder. Reboot, all should be well. This site also has other inverted Gapps (check the "Download" link on home page).

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Bigal77:
Hello

So earlier today i installed the latest swype....it wasnt becoming default(later found out due to lightflow i believe, which i have now deleted)

To get swype to work, i cut two system/app files (im rooted, galaxy nexus, running 4.1.1 btw) which were latinimedictionary.apk and latinl,megoogle.apk (basically the stock keyboard)

I think i did this write but i want to make sure

So i cut and pasted them onto my downloads folders, now i cut and pasted them back in system/ changed the permissions to rw-r-r like all the others apps, and basically cut and pasted them again in system/apps

now when i click on them, asks to install but wont

I think if i reboot it hsould work...but im afraid to reboot in case something is not right basically.

So those two files are sitting in system/apps

both are rw-r-r like all others.......should i be worried?

Thanks for any help!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] DZYR:
If you copied the same apps back to the correct location and changed the permissions. Simply reboot and they should work.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] blunden:
I looked around for smart covers on ebay and found the cover below. It doesn't fold around like this case does and in general looks more stable judging by the pictures (they could be wrong though).

Have any of you tried it? I have not found a review of it yet but I figured it might be worth asking.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Smart...ase-Cover-Google-nexus-7-Tablet-/280999623067
[Nexus 7 Accessories] chacalau:
Good question. I've been thinking about getting this case too. Anyone actually got it?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] DannyDrama:
Looks cool, but it would have to be much more stable than it looks to me.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Wilks3y:
Yes I have this case, I tell you its a beautiful case to hold and look at. There are other colour variants available which I got the red one.

Its very sleek, doesn't add much weight or bulk to the device.

The sleep functions works brilliantly, and doesn't lock the device when you fold it over to hold like a book, which some do.

ONE DOWNSIDE!!!! - The stand is very hard to figure out (i have not yet figured how to fold it to make it stand up haha !)

Hope this helps answer your questions.

And I genuinly recommend this case as its ace ! :) (that rhymes weee)
[Nexus 7 Accessories] formicae:
Have you got a link for any of the other colours? The ones I see in multiple colours are the ones with the wrap-around magnetic closure in the back (which I have, I'd like to have one that just lies over the screen for use at home).
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Wilks3y:
You're right mate, asif :P

Yeah the coloured variants have a lip that does go round the back, but its not noticeable and surely you want this to keep it nicely closed and secure?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] formicae:
I think it's noticeable, especially when I have that extra flap to fold back over when I'm using the N7 in my hand.

I want to keep it closed and secure, sure, when it's in a bag or something. But my N7 spends most of its time on my coffee table or bar; I'd love to have a slim case with just a flap over the screen to keep the dust out. That doesn't cost $30+ like the Poetics or Portenzos of the world.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] blunden:
So do you have this exact case or not? I've seen the other ones and I'm not interested in them after reading the reviews. That's why I started a new thread about this one. :) If you do have this one, some pictures would be great.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] formicae:
I went and ordered one of these, but likely won't have it for a couple of weeks since it's coming from China. Will post my impressions when it arrives.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] brickedman:
there's a video review from youtube titled "Nexus 7 - Cheap eBay "Smart Cover" Review"
[Nexus 7 Accessories] formicae:
That's a different case, with the wrap-around flap on the right side. I already have that one.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] psycho2097:
look, heres the deal, that case may look pretty but any case like that wont stay closed. for it to be closed, there would have to be magnets along the edges like the portfolio. any case maker that says the case will stay closed without magnets on the border is lying.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] slimdizzy:
I own one and its awesome. Buy it.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] poults:
I have got 1, build quality feels nice and it doesn't add much bulk to the device and also looks pretty sweet.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] JaSauders:
I have to admit, I never really liked these cases... but after seeing that YouTube review online, I'm curious enough to give it a shot.

I'm absolutely in love with this Speck case, but I do have a minor concern with it. I use my Nexus 7 frequently, very frequently, and not only that but I use it for work. I'm continually walking up and down the hall at work going from one problem to another, using my N7 along the way. As a result, I'm concerned I may wear out the clip on the Speck case quite a bit. This only became a thought when I realized the clipping mechanism is significantly easier now than it was when I bought it. Broken in? Maybe. Will it get even softer? Very possible. This case ensures that won't happen since the magnets of course don't have physical contact to wear like that. While the higher stand up position seems a bit easy to topple over, the other one with the N7 (one I'd likely prefer anyway) looks a bit better in terms of stability.

At any rate, ah, I bought one just now - we'll see what happens when it gets here.

Edit - for what it's worth the one I ordered did indeed have the magnetic flap that goes around back to ensure it stays shut. I'm not sure I'd consider one without...
[Nexus 7 Accessories] formicae:
Case arrived today, so far I like it, the cover lies flatter than the eBay case with the extra flap, and it feels slimmer. Only downside so far is that it sometimes puts the tablet to sleep when I fold it back. We'll see if it gets better over time. I'll try to take pictures when I have a chance.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] linh.n:
maybe slip something to block the magnet on the back? not sure what can maybe help on that front, but maybe a little thickness might be enough.

Side note, anyone have this and the poetic slimline case? I got the first case they had for my uncle, but it's a bit difficult for him to open. I'd get him a portenzo like mine, but it might actually add more bulk than I'd want for him.

So I got this Captivate to unlock for a friend of my dad's.

I followed all the usual steps, it actually worked, but in the process somehow the IMEI got messed up and throws an IMEI error after boot.

I tried all the known guides for fixing the IMEI but nothing worked.

Unfortunately, the original backup of the /efs/ folder is lost :(

Is there any way to fix this?

Some have been able to recover from the imei problem by flashin back to Stock Firmware and then u could back up the efs folder after the flash. U could try Stock GB 2.3.5 i897ucKK4.

I am assuming you have CWM installed already.

1) Make sure you are on some sort of ICS ROM

2) Flash some sort of ICS kernel with MMC_CAP_ERASE disabled. Hydracore 5.4 has the added benefit of working on any ROM you are using. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1749863

The .zip files are for CWM and the .tar files are for Odin/ mobile odin.

It doesn't matter which you use.

2) Flash SuperSU 0.96 http://download.chainfire.eu/212/SuperSU/CWM-SuperSU-v0.96.zip

3) Boot up, open SuperSu, update binary if necessary

4) Install BusyBox if it's not already installed.

5) Open TriangleAway again and see if it works

6) Hit 'thanks' at the bottom of this post'

7) ????
