[HTC One X+] gelo01:
It's good that the camera lens protrusion is now solved in the HOX+, and yes i've also read that some models, the camera eye isn't centered, i guess i have to inspect first the unit i will get before i pay for it. Good to know all issues to avoid before buying. :)

Btw, i never consider the sgs3 nor the note 2 because: 1) i was never impressed with the build quality of samsung mobile being plastic, it looks very cheap. 2) touchwiz UI isn't appealing compared to sense UI, i don't plan to root my phone yet within a year so i can't live with it's UI. 3) the One X+ looks sexier and more premium than any other samsung mobile. 4) sgs3 and note 2 is too mainstream, over rated, and almost all people use this and braging that they have the best and the latest phone out there, i don't want to be one of them. 5) super-lcd2 is more appealing to me than samoled, (though it's very ironic because my One S have samoled).

So i guess i will definitely get the One X+ if i can sell my One S, then i could get the money to buy one.. i'm afraid my One S will never have a JB update because it isn't one of the flagships today.

hey guys,

I know that somewhere deep on the forums there is something about it, but i've looked and didnt found it.

How can i use the volume key to shoot pictures on camera on ICS or elora rom ?

Thankyou

If I root my phone and Tmo sends an OTA update, will my phone still be rooted?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
I don't believe you have to reset the flash count for this. But you do need to flash unrooted stock ROM first. Then get the OTA update. After that root again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JosephL:
Thank you for the response.

I had another phone I rooted and when Tmo tried to push the update, Recovery mode caught it. I could never get the phone out of recovery mode after that. I got rid of the phone.

I don't want that to happen again obviously and why I asked the question. Seems to me, returning to stock, the rerooting might be more trouble than it's worth unless I had some compelling reason to do so.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
Here is the easiest method of managing root with this device: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1957720

I like managing the background auto start processes to make my devices run much more smoothly. Which is why I like to root. Back up is another reason.

At this point I believe staying stock while rooted right now would help in the process of unrooting for updates.

There is going to be at least two or more updates. First update to get our multi-window, Swift Key Flow keyboard and other stuff that should of been in our Note 2 devices. Another update that will be enabling our LTE radio (when T-Mobile rolls out LTE). Jelly Bean 4.2 Android OS update should be updated somewhere in between these other updates (possibly at the same time as the enabling LTE update). So you are correct in thinking first before rooting.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JosephL:
Uh huh. I see a stock ROM in my future.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JosephL:
So you are saying, root but leave stock. Will the updates require me to unroot to receive them if I leave it stock?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
Correct

Root and leave stock just my idea. Makes things easier when unrooting. But that is just my idea.

Always make a backup stock rom to unroot with. Or you can use the stock rom from this thread here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=33592979[STOCK FIRMWARE] SGH-T889 Factory Image (Unmodified) This is gold here.

After each OTA update you should make a backup of your stock rom as your latest stock rom. We should have a latest version of stock rom posted in our forum. But always best to use your latest backup image for stock rom. Again: This is gold here.

Read the thread that I gave you above.

But yes, unrooting before you can take OTA update. Take OTA update. Then root again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JosephL:
According to this guy all I need to do is flash the stock recovery, then I can take the update, then just flash Clockwork recovery once the update is taken and by what I think he's saying I don't have to unroot.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VVyQRdsnaA&feature=channel&list=UL

Does this sound right?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
Flashing stock rom will

unroot

your Galaxy Note 2. Basically put your Galaxy Note 2 back in to the same

unmodified

state that you bought it. Then OTA update. Then root.

Yes, I would take the OTA updates for now. They are important.

Also remember to backup your stock rom after OTA update. This will be the new stock rom for you to flash when you need to.

Sorry that I didn't explain what the process of unrooting was with GN2. Didn't have time, while with family. That is why I gave you the links.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] heiNey:
would voodoo rootkeeper work for unrooting a stock rom, taking the ota update, then using voodoo again to regain root?

the only thing ive done to my phone is root, but i still want the ota updates for multi-window, etc later on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Some_dude36:
I dont have this phone yet but I know in most android you can disable updates in the settings so you dont run into those kinda problems

---------- Post added at 02:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 AM ----------

when you install custom roms doesnt that make ota s moot? or does the device still retain updated functionality when using custom rooted rom ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
It all depends on what is going with the OTA. Some OTA updates might enable hardware that was otherwise dormant. LTE sure would be nice...

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
No, Voodoo rootkeeper would not work here. Not needed either.

When you root Galaxy Note 2 it sets a "Modified" status to your Galaxy Note 2. As long as your Galaxy Note 2 status is set to "Modified" then you can't get OTA updates. This is why you have to flash Stock ROM back into your GN2. I am hoping and believing that you don't have to reset the flash count for this. At least that was not the case with Sprint OTA update version. The OTA updater just checks if you are unmodified or modified. If you are modified then the updater will tell you that you can't update because you are "Modified". Again this is the reason for flashing the Stock unrooted ROM. Once you flash Stock ROM then you will have "Unmodified" status. That is when you will be able to get OTA updates.

Please get the Stock recovering ROM and be ready to flash it when OTA update is ready.

---------- Post added at 07:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ----------

Yes, root disables the updates through the status of "Modified". In fact when you try to update it says that you can't update because your GN2 is "Modified". But there are reasons that people want OTA updates: If you want your Multi-window feature, Swift Key Flow keyboard w/ S pen write to text, etc then you want the OTA update. If you want the LTE enable when T-Mobile rolls out LTE, then you want OTA update at that time And I can go on....

That is why people are asking these very good questions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] farfromovin:
And in either case, within 24 hrs of any updates being released we'll have that rom in a .zip here on xda pre-rooted and ready to flash. I don't mess with counters, rooting/unrooting, etc... It'll be here!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
Firstly messing with counters is mostly likely not needed. So that should not be a worry. Just to be noted.

Secondly, I hope that you are correct on that. But I been there thinking that community would do so but didn't. And least not for a while. And when they did found ways around to root again, it was not the way we wanted it. So I learned to not to put all my eggs in one basket.

Flashing Stock recovery ROM, taking the OTA updates, then root again is one of the baskets that all should have. If you don't need then no harm done. But if need and don't have it then harm done. A solution to the problem until another solution comes by.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] _Motoki_:
I was wondering this as well. In the past I have had success with getting updates and using apps that required root by simply using the Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper app, but I don't know if it will work on this particular phone or not.

I suppose it's worth a shot to at least try when an update rolls around because if it works it's a lot easier than flashing back to stock and re-rooting again.

*Edit: Ah never mind, saw JaguarXT's reply saying it won't work. In that case I think I will hold off rooting the Note II for the time being.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mdt73:
I am currently rooted and do not show the "Modified" status. I am also able to check for OTA updates. I believe it is bad information like this which is allowing people to feel it's OK to run amok with their phones. I feel this promotes the "need" for ROMs when most users could simply sit down with a launcher and customize it exactly the way they want it without a custom ROM. Now if I was getting some amazing battery life, or additional functionality that I can't live without, I might look at a ROM or two, but this isn't a Nexus, and stock\rooted\personalized works for me.

For those wanting to ROOT only, and that would be my recommendation, follow these instructions and STOP where he says STOP HERE.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1975560
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
Here is a couple of screen shots of what I was talking about. After stock recovery ROM no more "Modified" and can accept updates. Only after rooting get "Modified". Right I am rooted for backup and for AutoStarts app. But I did tried methods and know what works.

This is the method I know and tried of going back to stock and ready for OTA.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JaguarXT:
double post
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JosephL:
That's exactly where I am in all this. I plan NO custom roms because I'm sick of my phone not working.

I just want to do a few things that require root on the stock rom and for the things I want, I don't need a custom recovery.

Hi guys, I was(!) one of the sufferers of low ringtone problem occurs on some unlucky installs of nativesd rom from Tytung. Although not everyone is experiencing this issue, here is a solution on how to repeat it and how to solve it. The problem with my route is it may be a temporary solution, depending on your comfort needs :) Here it goes;

Assume you are already in trouble with low ringtone, DURING AN ON-GOING CALL, take conversation volume to lowest, by clicking the physical volume-down button on the side of the phone, several times.

End the conversation, and ask someone to call you.

Voila !

Of course, it may not work for all of you since everybody roots their phones in slightly different ways. And the problem with comfort is, you may need a higher volume during call, and right after increasing the volume even a single click from the lowest during call, (I tested other levels too, no way) low ringtone cames back until you fully decrease vol. in a following call.

Well, I really hope this works for you, too, and millions of thanks to Tytung for such a great rom with almost no problems.

Hi All,

When I had my SGS2 there was a great app by Hellcat that allowed you to change the Samsung boot logo (not animation), which was really awesome.

Unfortunately Hellcats app is not compatible with the SGS3 or SGN2.

Is anyone looking to create a method for this? Or can anyone point me in the direction of where to start researching how this is done.

Thanks

[Nexus 7 Accessories] Rock-&-Roll-Hedgehog:
I've amended the title & OP to reflect the fact that the code is still working.

Just a note to any one like me who is rubbish at putting screen protectors on.

Follow the xtremeguard instructions (on their website & shown below) to the letter & it will work. Also if it all goes perfectly & then a few hours later bubbles appear while it is drying do not try to remove them! They will disappear as it dries. In my case it took a few days because my flat was freezing (normally it takes only 24 hours).

How to install XtremeGuard Screen Protector

https://www.xtremeguard.com/Articles.asp?ID=239

NOTE: IT WILL TAKE THE PROTECTOR 1-2 DAYS FOR HAZINESS AND ANY BUBBLES FROM THE INSTALL TO GO AWAY. DO NOT REMOVE THE PROTECTOR DURING THIS PERIOD.

Items needed for best results:

Clean Work Area

Lint Free Cloth (Microfiber)

Water

Liquid Soap

Bowl or container for the soap/water solution

Squeegee or Credit Card

STEP 1: Remove battery from device if possible. If you have a device that does not have a removable battery (iPhone/iPod) turn off the device. Add a large drop of liquid soap to approximately one cup of water and stir. Water will be used to wet and then position the protector(s). Clean surfaces to be covered.

STEP 2: Wash your hands and then soak all of your fingers in the soapy water solution so you do not leave fingerprints. With wet fingers, peel off the backing from the guard, then re-dip your fingers in the solution and completely wet the protector.

STEP 3: Apply and align the guard to your device; softly squeegee out any extra water and use a cloth to soak up excess moisture if necessary. ** Important Note: As you squeegee out the water the skin will begin to adhere to the phone and will no longer move freely. If the skin is not aligned correctly and has become too sticky to readjust, remove it and start over. For best results, re-apply coverings as few times as possible. **

** Important Note:** When applying a covering over a rounded surface, you will have to let the over-hanging portion of the protector air dry until proper adhesion can occur. Start by getting the protector correctly positioned on the device. Once the positioning is acceptable, wait while the overhanging edges dry. Impatiently trying to force the edges down prematurely can cause the protector to move out of alignment. Patience is a key factor when covering rounded surfaces. Feel free to set the device down for a few minutes and come back to it later. This entire process could take up to 45 minutes. **

CAUTION: Even though drying is generally sufficient after only 8 hours, as a precaution, allow the device a full 24 hours of dry time before replacing the battery and powering on.

Lots of love

Get the Viper ICS ROM or any other AOSP ROM. Flash in fastboot the boot.ing. Fastboot erase cache afterwards. In recovery factory reset. Flash ROM. And everything will be fine.
