[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] josh995:
I filed a complaint about 2 weeks ago. :)

They may already be working on it, but if they get enough complaints, maybe it'll happen faster.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] microdot:
I hear what you are saying and that's such a lame excuse. Maybe their "techs" should get with some of the devs on this site because they seem to get it to work just fine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tonu42:
It has nothing to do with working, they just are probably waiting on a whole set of devices to become "compliant" with their specs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Imatoasta:
Standard operating procedure for the FCC. I've filled a bunch of complaints with them and this is always the outcome. They'll give you a scripted phone call with no info what so ever and spend more money on the phone calls then an actual solution. I don't even waste my time anymore. **** em. They have their head so far up the telcos asses that's it's pointless.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fbrn:
I sent in my complaint. Don't know if it will do anything but we will see. Thanks for the link and suggestion to file a complaint.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] byrds8:
Yeah to some degree it was scripted. Now granted it was not a CSR that called me it was someone from Corporate. I also have her number if I wanted to call her back to ask her any other questions concerning the issue. She mentioned something about it needs to be integrated or some crap. She mostly blamed Google other than saying techs were working on it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] projektHAZE:
Lol yea I got a call from them too ..& I do mean LOL cause is VZW serious when they are telling people that its Google's fault that the software is incompatible with VZW devices?

Like seriously?

What kind of retarded monkeys do they have working in the tech dept ..that people from XDA can get **** done faster then them

VZW is pulling the same **** they did when GS3 was released with the locked bootloader ..as in passing the blame on to Samsung
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hulk0069:
Did mine too
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Zion800:
All I know is it doesn't hurt to complain...you will only lose 5 minutes of your life to do it. If no one says anything, nothing can ever get done.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Imatoasta:
Unreal. Absolutely unreal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] yjbeach:
Filed mine too. Didn't even think about looking into Google Wallet as being an issue on any new Android Device. Now I'm upset I got this phone and told my GF to get one too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blestsol:
Because of Google wallet being stock inaccessible?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] yjbeach:
Correct, I wanted everything good to go out the box. I realized all the horrible bloat of Verizon crap on this phone so i'll have to root it anyways.

Oh well, phone is still great. Better than the iPhone5
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KEYofR:
One day for no apparent reason, boot-loop.

TWRP 2.2.2 installed and that still works.

Wipe cache & dalvik. No help.

Dirty re-flash exact same rom. No help. (Didn't expect that one to help of course but it's about the only thing left to try that doesn't lose data, and it's free and at least harmless.)

Nothing left to try that preserves data.

No recent backup. Oh crap. Months of txt's will be lost.

Make a nandroid backup with TWRP "just because". No idea what I might be able to do with it since the rom boot-loops. Do it anyway. The data I want to save is "in there somewhere some how".

Factory reset in TWRP. (IE: wipe data)

Boots fine. Empty new phone. Internal and external SD cards preserved, so pics/books/music all ok, contacts re-syncing from gmail. txts gone of course as I knew they would be.

Titanium Backup Pro > Menu > Extract from nandroid" > Dialer Storage

HOLY CRAP RESTORED!!!!!

Thank you TWRP!

Thank you TiBU!

Saved and restored my data AFTER rom was already in unusable boot-loop.

That is all.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dimqs153:
nice info

so whatever happen just do Nanddroid backup :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] plato2876:
Mine did the same thing while I was travelling - was very annoying. Thankfully I had a very recent backup to work from, as well as a ROM in memory to be able to re-flash. Was weird and out of the blue.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Munkeymon:
Nandroid backups require a reboot, which is annoying :)

Thankfully, when my phone started boot looping yesterday, I thought to make a backup before restoring a (month and a half!) old nandroid image. Had to get it working again, obiously, but so much happens in a month and a half. I was hoping to hack the backup to turn off Wifi, which I assumed was the problem because the last thing I did before the boot loop was enable it*, but fortunately I happened upon this thread. All I had to do is restore my new data+apps from the nandroid image over my old, working backup and I'm set. Fixed forever (hah!).

Let this be a lesson, kids: root your phone (even if you use a stock ROM like me!) and use the amazing community-created backup tools. They'll save your life wallet and data ;)

*Possibly related: http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g-lte/212245-boot-loop-noooo.html - lot of people there basially saying they enabled Wifi just before things hit the fan.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KEYofR:
I had the "just enabled wifi" boot loop once too some months ago. That time I had a clue because the home screen would almost come all the way up before the reboot and I could see the wifi icon on the notifications, and of course I had just been trying to connect to an access point when it started.

That time I managed to get in and disable wifi just before it caused a reboot. Took about 3 tries, trying to get into settings as soon as possible during boot up. But it worked and I didn't need a backup that day. I think that was still on the original shipped stock rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Vegas863:
Been searching for a case to order so I will have it ready to go when my Note II finally ships. However, I'm seeing some information on ebay indication that some of the cases only fit the GT-N7100 model and will not fit other sub-models? I was under the impression that there was no difference is shape/size among any of the carrier variants? Can someone confirm?

Here's just one such case that I found that alludes to fitment differences among the variants.

Black Flip Case for Note II
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kimdoocheol:
I have heard talks about the edges may being different, but I really doubt it. This hasn't been confirmed and from the leaked pictures the phones look exactly the same. I'm pretty sure the only reason the USA has different models is due to carrier frequencies and technologies (GSM & CDMA).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Vegas863:
I hope you're right and am keeping my fingers crossed. However, it does give me pause in pre-purchasing some accessories for the phone. :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] RaptorMD:
I was hoping there was a way to use the front cover with replacement battery door and a case but it looks impossible unless someone made one specifically for it. You would think Samsung would have had the genius to design one.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] H4rryTipp3r:
So, I don't know if anyone has read the new claims that crapple seems to be bringing to court but here is a link to the post.

http://phandroid.com/2012/11/06/app...01/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

Although here is some what of a break down of the contents.

It seems as though Apple has gone some crazy insane on crack or something because now they want to add 17 devices because they're all compatible with a stylus in some way. Now how the hell is that possible? None of Apple's products use a stylus, that I'm aware of anyway. At least they don't ship with one. Also, they are going after the GNex now, because hmmmm....It's running Jelly Bean?! That doesn't make any damn sense what so ever. So I though I would just bring this up for some discussion because I don' have the slightest idea how they can do this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evilmulligan:
I always read about apple trying find something ***** about android / Samsung software and products. It seems like they just want own the market, but that just it not everyone cares for them. I see how their product is their own. But lot of it seems picky
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] H4rryTipp3r:
My mom for some reason got an iPhone 5, I told here it was a piece of worthless crap, and she didn't listen. Needless to say 2 weeks later she is taking it back:D I convinced her to get a Note 2!

But along the lines of the whole patent thing, they say there going after the GNex because it has Jelly Bean, BUT all other JB devices are fine!? Makes NO damn sense!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evilmulligan:
Ya I seen apple attack Samsung for a lot of things. Last couple of years, last time I read anything was that apple claim Samsung copy their design.. Silly power hungry company's
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krisI0N:
They're just trying to get money back that they payed to Samsung for their parts lmao
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Apk07:
Apple will fold eventually. They always do. Look how long they tried to hold out on powerpc cpus before finally giving in to Intel -_-
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] H4rryTipp3r:
I hope they get what's coming to them, and soon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] magni08:
apple wants to hold the patent on touchscreen technology, and will probably sue everyone until they get it

Thats crazy but I like the line

“Apple does not owe money to VirnetX,”Danny Williams, a lawyer with Williams, Morgan & Amerson in Houston who represents Apple, told the jury. “VirnetX is not entitled to money for things they did not invent. Lol like apple hasn't done the same.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MustWarnothers:
My wife just got an iphone 4s the other day, even she was amazed by how little control you have.

I've messed with them before and they are nice products, but you can't even remove apps from the home screens. I was so confused by this. She doesn't need a stock app. How do you get rid of the icon? You don't.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crkdslider:
I have a small feeling they are attacking the GNex because it is ALWAYS updated. Google keeps the GNex on top of it. Apple probably views it as a threat because while we are here using the GNex for quite awhile (since we don't get bored with it), Apple has to release an entire new product to keep the users entertained.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] H4rryTipp3r:
That makes a lot of sense never looked at it that way. But seriously for a healthy market there needs to be competition and if you suck that bad you go out of business that's that.

[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Sahaj Jain:
Hello Guys, I was thinking to root my phone and install JellyBlast Rom. Can you please tell me ALL the precautions I should take before rooting my phone (with tutorial link)? I heard that we have to flash a file to make a FULL backup and other things. And will it be safe to install JellyBlast Rom? Is it working? :confused:
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] makeyourself:
See the first post in this thread for all the instructions and files you will need:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1551156

If you are thinking of flashing custom ROMs then yes, I would personally make a "Full backup with CWM to ODIN format" of your firmware. This will back up everything including your IMEI number which can sometimes go missing.

If you wish you can also make a partial backup with Clockwork Mod Recovery and use the Galaxy Toolbox app, available in Play Store, to make a backup of your IMEI number. These are easier and more convenient when it comes to restoring.

Just follow the instructions carefully and the rooting will go just fine, its not that risky. Which JellyBlast Rom, there's two now? They're both quite new so you may want to wait a short while for others to give their feedback. You almost certainly won't hard-brick (unrecoverable) your phone by flashing a ROM for the correct model of phone but soft-bricks can sometimes happen.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Sahaj Jain:
Thanks!

Thanks a lot, Bro. I will make both backups to be safe. I didn't like the Simpilicity Jellyblast, But I liked the JellyBlast V3.0.3 one, But which firmware is better XXLI (In Simpilicty) or VJKL4 (In V3.0.3), I think XXLI is better because it is the latest firmware in my Country (India). What do you think? Can you suggest any other Rom? Is Pimp My Rom mod safe to use on our phone? It makes phone faster right?

EDIT: I made a Full backup. Now I have 6 Files on my SDCARD that CWM_BackUP_FW_ODIN.zip made:

bml15_EFS.img

PDA_S5830C.tar

CSC_S5830C.tar

BOOT_S5830C.tar

CSC_S5830C_clean.tar

PHONE_S5830C.tar

Now if I soft brick my phone can I use these files? If yes then which of these? Because ODIN Has only 4 option and here are 6 files.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] makeyourself:
No problem. I would have thought you would have been OK with either firmware but someone else might be able to give you a better answer on that. Yeah XXLI is the latest firmware available anywhere.

I'm using the AceCream v1.4 ROM at the moment, its stable, very fast and stylish but I'm not sure whether its still being actively developed. It depends what you're looking for, take at look here and follow the links:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30731157&postcount=2

Yeah you can use these files to restore via Odin in Download Mode:

PDA_S5830C.tar

CSC_S5830C.tar

BOOT_S5830C.tar

PHONE_S5830C.tar

I think CSC_S5830C_clean.tar is a generic, possibly empty CSC image, not an actual backup, you can probably swap this for CSC_5830C.tar if you ever want to clear your Consumer Software Customization data.

bml15_EFS.img contains your IMEI and network/region lock info. You can't flash this with Odin, you would have to do it manually via command line but you're better using Galaxy Toolbox to be honest.

I think Pimp My Rom works but may not work straight 'out of the box', Adrenaline Engine also works and is included in some of the custom ROMs. For both of those you'll want/need the Rafael@Baugis S5830i custom kernel (search XDA).

[Microsoft Surface] mandy3d:
Ok! I keep hoping I'll see some neat way to get my desktop apps on my Surface on here! However, I found a pretty cool solution myself!

First I set up remote desktop with my windows 7 PC and my surface. That was cool. It felt clunky and slow. However, I looked up how to do RemoteApps. I thought it looked complicated but worth it. While stumbling around I found a utility that basically sets it up for you!

1. First setup remote desktop access and free the port for remote desktop. I will not describe it here.

2. I used this utility! Kim Knight's remoteapp tool. Google it. XDA won't let me post a link cause I've never posted before. I just wanted to share my findings.

3. I now can use Utorrent, Photoshop and even my silly Pidgin! Eventually I'm going to use Maya! It works great with hardly any lag! The only lag I get is when I'm saving to my tablet vs the remote computer. I haven't been able to get a browser to work yet but I have invested that much time into it. I'm sure other people will figure it out. Whats cool is Utorrent will save to my tablet. Yah download speeds are slower but expected!
[Microsoft Surface] mattalter:
Nice find
[Microsoft Surface] Backflipping:
This is indeed a great find! I've played with RemoteApps before on the server editions of Windows, but it's quite tricky to get it to work with one server and not a huge enterprise! Being able to use it in this way is just great. Plus we can probably work out an XML file that will populate the apps into the RemoteApp control panel / metro RDP client automatically.

However, I'm having a problem with this on Win 8 (as a host). It seems to all setup ok, but upon connecting (from Win8 or Surface RT) after credentials, cert etc are accepted the RDP client just vanishes. I see Kim Knight's page says it works with Win 8 CP - has anyone tested it with Win 8 RTM? If MS have broken this with Win8 I think I'll have to setup a Win7 box/VM just for this purpose!
[Microsoft Surface] Eirikr88:
I had issues getting it working on Windows 7 pro at work, so i swapped up to Enterprise and it worked great. I haven't tested it at home yet off my system. I haven't used this but for my home fileserver, but you can take it a step further and patch RDP to work for multiple concurrent connections.

http://www.redmondpie.com/remote-de...-easy-way-with-this-native-windows-rdp-patch/
[Microsoft Surface] DangerMUK:
RemoteApp Tool requires:

•

Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5

•

Remote Desktop 7 enabled on host

•

Remote Desktop 7 client on client

•

Windows 7 Enterprise or Ultimate (or Vista Pro or XPproSP3 - untested)
[Microsoft Surface] yokuyuki:
With concurrent connections, can you remote app and use desktop still with same login?

Edit: Tried it myself and it works. So now I can remote app in while I'm still logged in my desktop and it won't boot me off, allowing me to use them simultaneously with the same login.
[Microsoft Surface] Backflipping:
I can confirm this works with Windows 8 Enterprise, but not Pro. There is, of course, no Ultimate. This is all a bit of a shame as I can't use RemoteApp on my primary home PC, which also runs Media Centre (which can't be added into W8 Enterprise).
[Microsoft Surface] mandy3d:
Mine keeps booting me off... Asks me to sign out the other user before logging in. Any tips on how you were able to achieve that?

Mandy
[Microsoft Surface] yokuyuki:
Did you install the concurrent RDP patch?

I installed it on Windows 7 Ultimate and I can use remote apps on my Surface and use desktop at the same time.

[Microsoft Surface] landwomble:
Brilliant. Worked like a charm. No idea how, without a server running the remote app role, but it does.
[Microsoft Surface] flo850:
Does it work with a win 8 pro instead of an entreprise edition ?
[Microsoft Surface] landwomble:
No
[Microsoft Surface] Joe USer:
RemoteApp is just a remote desktop connection to a specific application, it's been around since Windows XP SP3. It's also how XP mode in Windows 7 does its magic.
[Microsoft Surface] landwomble:
I know what remote desktop is! But remoteapp - seamless windowed app on client - is pretty impressive.
[Microsoft Surface] jtenniswood:
The remote app program does work under Windows 8, but you need to run it as administrator otherwise it's crashtastic.

After that it works perfectly.

One other thing is that you should apply the patch to allow multiple co-current remote desktop sessions to work on your machine, here's the patch... http://www.tenniswood.co.uk/technol...current-remote-desktop-sessions-in-windows-8/
[Microsoft Surface] landwomble:
That's not legal.

remote desktop help

Hey all, if anyone can help me get remote desktop working on my surface it would be greatly appreciated. If a developer out there could set up an app to get this done easier, could be a moneymaker, I know id pay for it.

After scouring youtube, and the web, I found a lot of different walkthroughs on how to set up a home pc as a remote server. Unfortunately, I really don't know what im doing and cant figure out why it isn't working. Im running WinXP Pro SP3 on a few year old laptop (I bought the thing during the Vista debacle, and down graded to xp for software reasons - I am an architect and needed my AutoCAD and various graphic intensive programs)

These are the steps that I have tried, all to no avail

- I go to control panel, System, Remote, turn on Remote Desktop.

- open Linksys router configuration, and try to set up Port Forwarding

- this is where it really gets confusing for me, and I don't think that I am doing it correct. I know I need to open the port, I go to Applications and Gaming, and enter RDP, Im not sure of the port number, and what else to do here

- cmd, ipconfig - I enter all information - ip address, DNS, Gateway, etc?

I then found out that in order to really get this working, I needed a static IP address - Im not sure how to do this, but I found a couple posts, and a youtube video suggesting using DynDNS to get this working as a host. I signed up, and am still not able to connect.

Any help would be appreciated - Im not great with this stuff.....I never really played with networking, before....Please help me get my Surface working. Its possible im not entering the address correctly in the Surface Remote Desktop App.

Thank You!!
[Microsoft Surface] xsoliman3:
If the surface is on your home wifi, it should be able to rdp (remote desktop) to the XP system no problem.

Only need the router ip mapping / translation if using the Surface outside the house on another Internet connection
[Microsoft Surface] UBNAS81:
I am trying it on my home network first, but ideally would like to access remote desktop, and remote apps from my surface while I travel . Remoe access through Windows is the entire reason that I got the thing, and its giving me issues, and I consider myself to be proficient with computers. I am using a linksys router, which seems to b the reason is not working. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
