So I had the new evil rom V7 installed already, but I noticed the media server thing eating up a good bit of battery, so I wanted to wipe everything from my phone. I ended up wanting to encrypt everything then wipe the phone so I everything would be gone. I moved my backups off my phone, and my pics and all that as I didn't think stuff would go wrong. Anyway partway through the encryption process it failed, said it had to reset the phone and that that would wipe all user data, and to try to encrypt again, well every everytime I tried to reset(it was the only thing the phone would let me do) it would end up giving me the same message.I wiped data/factory reset in hopes that I could then see install via external sd as an option, cause I couldnt see that. I now can get to clockwork recovery but am unable to install via zip, and it doesnt show my external sd card as an option. In panic of trying anything that could help me, in cmr I wiped the system data, and cache, but yeah I dont know if theres anything that can be done. Any sugguestions?

more info, at boot it just hangs at the wicked logo.

Have you tried to mount the external sd card ?

I want to change the preferred network type from the current setting of 'unknown'. I go into the tablet using the *#....access and it lets me see all the various info sections. When i go into phone Info I can see that the network type is 'unknown', so i go to change it to access the options for the network types (wcdma, gsm, etc), see what i want (which is WCDMA Preferred) but when i click on it, it just goes back to showing 'unknown'.

Can anyone help me understand why and what i need to do so that the preferred type stays locked in?

[Galaxy S III Accessories] wraithevolution:
My educated guess would be the Seidio Extended battery case. I'm using a 4000mAh Ezopower battery on my phone with this case. I bought a cheap replacement back and dremmeled it out to fit the battery. Then got the Seidio case and it fits perfectly. Even if there was a slight increase in size, I'm sure it would still fit. It fits perfectly and other than the increased thickness, it looks nice.

On a personal note, I would avoid Mugen, but that's just me. You can get the same batteries for much cheaper. I got a Mugen battery for my last phone and had problems right from the start. They dropped me like a hot rock, never helped me, never cared or responded to any of my requests for help. I got my current battery off Amazon because I know they'll help me if I have problems.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] src511:
it comes with one though from Mugen.

now if you dont mind me asking, does anyone know if the default samsung gs3 charger is compatible with the Mugen 4600mah battery for the GS3?

Plan on buying it but it says nowhere if it is compatible with the factory charger.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eddott:
Why should it not be compatible?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] src511:
Idk, I mean it's a third party battery (mind you I don't know a lot about electricity)...I think it's only right for me to think ahead of time if I need a special charger for that extended battery.

Edit: sorry forgot to mention on mobilefun.co.uk (they sell the mugen battery. Going to buy it through Amazon but I initially found it there) they said the factory charger should work but it might take a while to charge (in which I responded asking if they sold a special charger more suited to charging such a heavy-duty battery). Have yet to hear back from them.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] siani_8:
The reason it "takes a while" to charge is because it's a higher capacity battery and it needs more time to fill than your stock lower capacity one. There is no need to buy another charger unless you just want a spare to keep at work or something.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] steveojp:
Is there anyway to enter clockworkmod recovery without having to use EZ recovery app? I thought when I enter recover by holding the volume up, menu, and power it's suppose to automatically boot into clockwork? Or am I wrong? I went away from Android for a while and just got a Galaxy S3 and rooted it. Any help is great. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Legato Bluesummers:
No you are right. If clockwork is installed that's a way to get into it. The button combo. But the trick is...hold them for a second until the phone vibrates and you see like three or four blue words in a tiny font at the top of the screen. When you see them. Release the keys. If you keep holding them you go past recovery and into full boot.

Sent from a GlaDos Baked Potato
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apacseven:
Yes the blue text on the upper left of screen is when its safe to release vol up and home. Otherwise you can just hold them until you are in recovery. If neither works then something isnt right. You do not need an app to get into recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
Its the home button you want to hold, not menu. And you need to hold the button combo from a powered off state, or catch it right when you do a reboot.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bluekz:
I need some pointers from members of this forum who can help me regarding the issue. I have tried the SGS3 Easy UMS app and several other unix codes to actually mount my sdcard as a usb mass storage(to copy large media files over) to no avail. I followed this forum page, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1711009 but still cudnt get it to work. When I clicked the UMS Mode button, everything seemed fine, but when i select Mount Card button(with the phone disconnected from the computer) its states "Could not mount card:[1]"

Qn: 1) Am I doing it right with clicking the UMS Mode button followed by Mount Card button with the phone disconnected from my comp as I do it?

2) I can only see MTP and PTP options in the USB computer connections page when I connect my phone to my comp. Should I be expecting something else?

3) I tried several other workarounds like entering some unix codes to mount the ext sdcard as a usb mass storage drive as found in this thread....http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1800935

Still it will not work. They mentioned entering the codes in the terminal emulator. Is this the same terminal emulator found in my SGS3 rooted with CM10 nightly? Or must it be entered on my PC runnning Windows 7(I dont believe so)

4) I also did some more thorough research and got mixed reviews on getting the usb mass storage thingy working. Some actually referred it as a problem with kernels used with CM10. I am on stock kernel btw. And some went on commenting that the USB mass storage options have been added to the latest nightly build of CM10 (which is NOWHERE to be found)

** If there is any kind,smart and willing-to-share-knowledge souls out there, need your help please. Thanks!:eek:

Hi All, its my first post, since am getting stuck here.

I rooted my Iconia A500 last year when I purchased it, and it was working fine with Taboonay.

Yesterday, I tried to install [ROM]Jelly-Bean_4.1.2_CM10-FLEX_v6supercharged_Aroma(16-Okt-2012)[discontinued), and found out that I needed to install thor 173.

I did, and managed to install the rom. Howerer, when I rebooted - It STUCKS AT THE ACER LOGO crying:

Please advise what I did wrong.

Thnx
[Acer Iconia A500] 10507:
Have you also updated your bootloader? The CM10 ROM requires that you be on ics bootloader.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jimieo:
For a few months I've been reading everything I can so I can make a ROM of my own. I finally started building it with ICS LI3 and I am loving every second of it...

However, today I decided I wanted to give Jelly Bean a shot... So for the last few hours I've been trying to remember "Okay, what images did I edit again?" and "Which smali file was that tweak in?" and "Where was that thread with the how to?" Basically trying to remember every little detail that I had changed and re-creating it in Jelly Bean. Then I had an epiphany of sorts. I realized "I will, pretty much, have to do this with every new update that gets released. UHG!"

So, to the developers out there who do the same for all of us, I thank you. Not only have you inspired me to try my hand at something completely new to me, but you do this every day, every update, every new OS release. Some of you for every new device.

So truly, I thank all of you.

I just want to say that I too want to thank all of the Devs here at XDA. I think the time and effort they give is greatly overlooked by some. I just want to send my gratitude to everyone here who is always willing to help people like myself, those who love Android and all it offers but need some help and guidance with how to make full use of it.

Thanks again to everyone who have done so much to make my experiences with the OG Epic and now the SGS3 such a wonderful experience.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freeza:
I felt the same... sort of why I put off updating my ROM for so long. But I finally got around to it. The key is making notes, and using diff'ing/compare software such as UltraCompare. It makes tasks like this much much easier.

Also, if you're doing any smali editing, it will make the job much easier to always keep a stock file from the previous update laying around, so that you can compare your changes to stock, then apply them to new updates. I have thought up a number of tricks to make updating software easier, but these are probably my most valuable.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] clark44:
^+13567633689643589543

Every dev has his own tricks at keeping up to date ;)

I'm glad some people appreciate our work and THIS is why I won't stop :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jimieo:
:) I've used a program called ExamDiff to see the differences between the files I need to edit. It helps sometimes.. But I've made a few mistakes and needed to decompile working mods of my own only to find out the notes I have made in it did not appear in my newly decompiled apk.. Lesson learned.

I'm glad you and freeza especially found this thread. I've followed a few of your guides that you two have generously posted for the rest of us. Those have helped me quite a bit and given me a chance to find other things that I may not have necessarily found on my own.

Thanks again guys!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] decimalman:
The devs have a few tricks up their sleeves. I would assume that most of them are using some kind of version control to keep track of all their changes (and keep their sanity). Good version control probably even allows them to copy their changes to new updates pretty painlessly.

I can't speak for anyone else, but any time I start even a small project, I start a git repo for it. It makes it easy to backtrack when I screw something up.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 404url:
Hey guys! 404 here!

I have some questions that I would like answered because I'm pretty weary on the idea of rooting. I understand that there is so many benefits of rooting a phone but these questions may seem strange but I guess I was taught to ask before I do.

If I were to root my phone on one carrier on the Galaxy S2 that I have currently with one company still in a plan, would I be able to insert another carriers SIM card whilst the phone has been rooted simply because what I thought is that the phone would be locked to that sim that was is in the phone being rooted.. Also, I forgot to mention. Would there be any other hazards such as that if I root the phone?

If I am able to root the phone and insert any SIM card into the phone at a later stage, could anyone provide me with a tutorial on how to root and unroot the Galaxy S2.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kilometers4:
1. Rooting and unlocking are different things. But yeah you can unlock your device after you root it.

2. There are lots of tutorials on how to safely root.

3. It's really easy to unroot. You go to www.sammobile.com, download the firmware you want and flash through Odin.

4. Any other questions don't hesitate to ask.

Sorry. You are all misinformed.

Usb gives .5A in dumb mode.

When the device talks to the host and asks for more, very often it will get 1A on older computers and 2A+ on newer ones.

Some even have a yellow port that gives 2A even when the pc is off.

So theres no simple 'chargin on computer usb' its damn complex. Only if android showed amps its getting....

My nexus one had 'spare parts' app that showed charging was either usb or ac, meaning .5A or >.5A
