THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I really didn't read enough, big mistake, I was just really cocky because I've modded almost every device I own (Wii, PSP, PS3, PS2 various and iDevices [mine, and friends]). Of course, they're all different (Not saying it's all the same thing! :P), I just felt very confident because I've never had issues with anything before. At least this is a good learning experience, I've really been put in my pace. I always felt that bricking was something that happened to other people, it doesn't happen to me. I know that sounds stupid, but idk, that's just how I felt. I physically feel sick over this 'whole ordeal (Seriously), I'm such an idiot. >.<'

Thanks for the warning, I won't flash anything! I'm so relieved to hear that there's no permanent damage done, and to be able to speak to someone who's familiar with this specific problem and this specific model of the SGS4G, AND is willing to help me!

Do you know when you'll be able to help me? Of course, take your time, I completely understand that you have other stuff going on, I'm just wondering to see if I can maybe think of some cover up so my dad doesn't find out. :P

Also, I have a 14 day warranty, is it void now even though the root didn't work? I'm assuming it is.

Edit: Yup, if what jeffsf says is true, it's void.

I'm just very impatient sometimes. I really do enjoy doing this kind of stuff, it's fun for me. I just got really excited and wasn't thinking straight and just went out and tried rooting it. I've wanted an Android for a while now, and have always planned to root it to unlock it's full potential. I've never modded anything else day 1 (and never will again), this is the first time I've done this. I feel terrible about it.

Will do, thanks for helping, jeffsf.

If your still under 14 days return it with a stupid I don't know what happened look. If its stuck just on the tmob screen they most likely will never know what you did. Your other choice is to be a man and own up to it. Tell your dad and take your lumps. That choice is yours. Give it serious thought before you choose as it might define what type of person you end up becoming.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] BagelBreath:
I feel like they might know. I'm willing to try it as a last resort, I'd like to give getochkn a shot first.

I'll tell my dad what happened after it's fixed. I just can't deal with him stressing me out about it more than I already am.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] getochkn:
I will have a package probably tomorrow that will provide as detailed instructions as I can.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] BagelBreath:
Oh, wow! That's much sooner than I was expecting! Thanks for taking the time to do this for me, it really means a lot. Thank you so much getochkn!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] getochkn:
Package and instructions here.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] BagelBreath:
Thank you so much getochkn!

I read all the instructions before attempting this. But, I have a problem. Heimdall failed to flash. It said something about failing to retrieve the PIT or something? So, I tried again. Didn't work. So, I restarted my computer, and my phone.

Phone doesn't go into download mode, instead, I end up on a screen saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."

What should I do?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] getochkn:
That firmware screen should detect as download mode still in Heimdall. I have gotten that and reflashed from Heimdall before. Not sure why it's trying to download the pit, it should only do that when you tell it to download pit. Flashing shouldn't trigger that. See if Heimdall will detect it in that firmware recovery mode and I guess try again, otherwise your phone is really borked.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] BagelBreath:
Thank you for the quick reply!

It worked! I really can't thank you enough! Thanks again for taking the time to do this!

I think it may have said "Uploading Pit" because it said it again this time, but it didn't encounter a problem when it did that.

I know I have 3 choices, the one I would like to choose is ICS. Would mind pointing me in the direction of an ICS ROM that's compatible with my device? I'm afraid to use something that may not work and mess up my phone again.

EDIT: Actually, I think I'll just stick with this. I just installed the twist kernal and the modem, everything works, I'm rooted and have recovery. I'd rather not mess with it until I'm more experienced with droids.

Thanks again everyone, especially you getochkn! I'm so relieved that my phone is working again! My dad didn't notice that I wasn't using the new phone I got, so I didn't have to cover up or anything.
[Motorola Photon 4G] gofd:
Dear all.

Somehow I ran across the site and it seems that it contains some valuable source code of android on Photon (e.g. kernel_tegra.tar.gz which may include source code for Tegra2 driver). Hope this can help the further development of Photon ROM!

I hope it would also contains hints on unlock bootloader as my friend and I are still stuck at the Japanese stock ROM that are

currently

NOT unlockable.

Many thanks!
[Motorola Photon 4G] gofd:
I am sorry that this seems to be old news already as people are already discussing on this thread.

I find something interesting on the

system_core.tar.gz

, there is a engineering_key.p12 (private key with cert, seems to require passphase) on \system\core\fastboot\. I wonder if this is used for signing the bootloader.

[HTC One X] boban984:
Hi , i would like to know when there will be a way to flash JB roms like ARHD to One X devices not having one of the following CIDs:

For example My CID is HTC_044.

Currently im using ARHD 9.7.2 but i would like to upgrade to the latest one.

I know there is a way to do this but it's buggy ([How to] Boot ALL Jellybean sense roms on cid unsupported devices)

Thank you for your time
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Either when we get S-Off, find the private signing key or when an OTA/RUU is released that matches the CID.

We don't have dates for any of these things.

The last one is likely to come first for most devices.
[HTC One X] boban984:
I thought so , i hope HTC will release the update soon (to my knowledge it should happen by the end of October)
[HTC One X] BenPope:
They said it will start in October, that's usually Germany first, then other bits of mainland Europe, The UK, most of Eastern Asia, can't remember where middle east goes, and then HK last (or thereabouts), about a month later.

Branded ones start from around a few weeks after the initial rollout to, well, possibly never, but hopefully within 2 months.
[HTC One X] boban984:
Mine is not branded , and although im from Macedonia and bought it here i got a version that is apparently for Asia :)

So i guess we will just have to wait for the official update , hope HTC will be on time with the update.
[HTC One X] maniacaus:
I bought my phone network unlocked but the CID is network branded ("OPTUS_xxx"). Will i have to wait until the Optus jellybean update is out to flash any custom JB roms?
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Yes, your phone is branded.
[HTC One X] maniacaus:

Well that sucks. Thanks anyway.

I have a magic sim adapter I purchased for £25 for my galaxy s3 which fits my note II: http://www.magic-sim.com/product/id/7/ELITE_GALAXY_S3.html

just need to find myself a cheap unlock for my n7105
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] nm8:
can I ask where you got your 7105 ?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Pyr0x64:
Sure, I got it from T-Mobile UK
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] nm8:
cheers, is it tmobile locked and branded?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Pyr0x64:
It is locked to the T-Mobile network (If I insert a GiffGaff SIM, it says invalid SIM and asks for code) and there are no other CSCs available by default, but there is no branding to the handset itself apart from a little 'Lte' logo on the back cover

Do the following DUAL SIM adapters work with N7100 International variant ?

http://www.magic-sim.com/model.php?searchinputLookup=2453

Please confirm.

Thanks

---------- Post added at 03:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:42 PM ----------

Some one please inform :

1)Are MagicSim DUAL SIM adapters DUAL STANDBY ?

2)If not,can we still receive messages and calls from the inactive SIM ?

3) Out of the 2 SIMS slots,which one is 3G enabled ?

SIM 2 (MicroSim)

or

SIM 1 (Standard SIM)

Thanks in Advance
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] chrcad:
1.) NO

2.) NO

3.) Official only the second, but in my Phone (N7100) both SIM Cards worked 3G

ATTENTION: The Adapter takes quite a lot of space, thats why I changed to the GMate+ from MAGICSIM. Here a small review in german. Works great for me and provides REAL DUAL SIM!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Markoldfield:
Both mine also work on 3G also. I believe the new Magicsim Elite range allow both SIMs to use 3G, 4G, LTE etc
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] hsb50:
I have heard that the SIM in Gmate Plus does not support 3g data, is that true ?

If true, then are there any chances of Gmate plus supporting 3g in the near future ?

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:49 PM ----------

Are you sure MagicSim supports LTE also ?

Have you tested that personally ?

If you didn't buy you GNII already, I'd suggest you to wait for the GT-N7102:

http://translate.google.com/transla...phones/galaxy-note/galaxy-note/GT-N7102RWDCHN

It supports 2 SIMs (regular & Micro) in Dual Standby mode !

Looks like both SIMs are 3G enabled, as it says here: http://whatswithjeff.com/samsung-galaxy-note-2-dual-sim/

Should be available around 12/3 !

Almost perfect :)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Pat.:
N7102 has no DC HSPA+

Whereas a Gmate & a N7105 would give a remote sim for Tex/calls on gmate & in the phone a 3G DCHSPA+ & if needed 4G

What we need is an LTE N7102 & with google services on it out of the box.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] hsb50:
Has any one used the above mentioned DUAL SIM Adapter for N7100 ?

If so, then please share the experience.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] wildta:
No because the Sprint's GN2 does not have an accessible SIM slot like other variants.

Hello together,

i got a question for the wake up macanism ... Is there a tool or another apk to get the One S wake up via Volume Buttons ?

I dont like to use my power switch so often that i break ... so im thinking this would be a very useful function in roms ?!

Regards,

[HTC One S] LibertyMonger:
This would be one of the main reasons I would root, that and to use some of the good apps that require root, and to theme. But I need volume wake I hate the power button at the top. It really makes no sense lol. It would be great if there was an app for this but if there was it probably would require root. I would rather avoid rooting, since the phone barely needs it! Also I have slide to wake on my GNex and I love it. just swipe from left to right to wake the screen.

It's not that simple since framework is different in builds and not everything can be ported from one to next due to dependencies there are plenty of ICS looking lock screens in Play store.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mirrin:
I have been testing out many of the roms here for my new galaxy s3 coming from my htc droid incredible.

When i picked and chose my rom on the incredible there were things about sense i liked things I did not like but over all the performance was varied wildly most of the time it was asop or akop that was higher preforming on my inc so my choice was easy i ran akop roms most of the time infact my inc is running akop jellybean right now it runs great with the obvious issues of it just is not as fast as my gs3 nor does it have the big screen my gs3 has.

My experience with the galaxy s 3 has been rather different the way it organized its file system and favors internal storage over the sd card has been somewhat annoying as well i have found the reverse of my experiences with my incredible to be true now touch wiz has better performance than asop but it has more bugs and issues than running ported roms on my htc. While asop works great on it and is mostly bug free it just doesn't have the speed and feel of touch wiz and i keep wanting to go back to a tw based rom.

Im currently running

eclipse 2.1 10/20/12 with ktoonsez kernel 10/22/12
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Deliquified:
What bugs and issues on TW are you referring to? And speed? I definitely disagree. TW is bloated as hell.. 700+mb compared to 150mb on aosp. Over clock with the ktweaker app up to 2.1ghz and change your governor/scheduler to sio/smartassv2. Perhaps that will change your mind.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
overclocking to 2.1 is pointless and does nothing but drain the battery faster. touchwiz imo is very close to the performance of aosp. i like both at this point and probably favor aosp slightly once the ril is perfected.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mirrin:
I wont defend the fact tw is bloated as hell i about flipped my **** when i saw the roms were 500+mb and like i had said i am used to the incredible where the size of the rom maxed out was 250mb literally unless you took some of the 750mb htc allocated for user apps.

That said I dont know if the cpu/gpu drivers for touch wiz are different or what but every asop rom i have tried is slower than every tw rom i have tried is slower not that it makes a huge difference as i am running a asop atm i do miss a few features of the touch wiz base most are cosmetic.

Also I am not going to overclock to achieve the same result that asop roms should easily achieve. sio did help a little though. Also not like the test im doing to see how my phone is doing. antutu and quadrant I am seeing a difference of 1500-2000 points in quadrant and 1200 in antutu. And those are not really that great of a way to tell anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmorton10:
Until I got the G3 I always ran aosp on any device where it was possible.

The G3 is a different story however, I have tried every ROM available & at this point I am completely baffled why anybody would put up with a buggy aosp ROM (& every one has bugs) when the TW ROMs are just as fast/smooth etc & everything works perfectly.

No matter what ROM I try, I keep coming back to the setup in my sig for my DD.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mustang302LX:
Yeah coming from a GNex I figured I would hate TW but I actually like it. I kind of got bored with AOSP honestly. It's nice having all these features without having to use ROMs that hacked the features in in a sloppy manner.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fix-this!:
As much as i like jb, aosp is slower and a battery hog. Im on cm10 atm but have beans rom on backup.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wscaddie56:
personally i lasted 2 days on aosp, found it buggy and the phone is quick w TW so I don't see a need for more speed.

running beans build 14 right now and i really like the ridiculously large level of customization you can do yourself. this is where ROMs should head IMHO, the devs don't make the design/theme choices but leave it up to the user to be able to have many choices after the ROM is flashed.

so great to have choices.

I'm on SGS 3 (I9300) with freshly installed I9300XXDLIH_I9300VFGDLJ1_VIP and rooted afterwards.

Since I upgraded my phone to Jelly Bean, I can't test/debug any development project on the phone.

The Eclipse APK build passes OK and this is what I get in the step afterwards -- when the APK is tried to be deployed on the phone:

Installation failed due to invalid APK file!
Please check logcat output for more details.
Launch canceled!

This is what I get when I try installing directly with ADB:

>adb install -r test.apk
3484 KB/s (1616779 bytes in 0.453s)
pkg: /data/local/tmp/test.apk
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK]

I've found some hints that the tmp folder may have invalid permissions, so I have done this:

chmod 777 /data /data/local /data/local/tmp

With the result:

root@android:/ # ls -ld data data/local data/local/tmp
ls -ld data data/local data/local/tmp
drwxrwxrwx system system 2012-10-23 15:40 data
drwxrwxrwx root root 2012-08-25 10:40 local
drwxrwxrwx shell shell 2012-10-23 16:36 tmp

Eclipse or ADB still refuse to install (any) APK.

If I copy the Eclipse-generated APK to the phone and initiate the install from there, it works OK.

What can I do to fix this? Please help.

FYI, I'm using 20.0.3 Android SDK (and Eclipse 4.2.1).

My system properties:

Update:

Installed SiyahKernel S3-v1.6.8 and w/o any tampering with the settings (e.g. through ExTweak) the problem is solved.

Root cause seems to be UMASK.

- on stock kernel I had 0077

- now on SiyahKernel I have 0000

Still, as can be seen from numerous other threads on the same issue out there, it's very wrong for the stock kernel to cause that problem.
