Catching myself on flashing Cyanogen after every samsung rom release - it's just clean and light comparing to the last one , i then thought, if i love pure G more than a blup-blup cartoonish mothefuker even with cool milti window which i used 4-5 times to put iScumbags in depression and smart rotation which is a super must feature. However , i just enjoy a lot more when using aosp , eventhough S3 is a great device

what rom is he using on his s3?
[Galaxy S III General] jhericurls:
Looks like he's using Paranoid Android, because of the split screen email.
[Galaxy S III General] Poshdaz:
Close run contest at this point, but next year when the S4 comes out and Sammy can't be bothered updating the S3 to later versions of android anymore, the N4 will suddenly seem far more appealing.

The fact Samsung will not release usable hals and related sources then a fully working Aosp alternative isn't going to be an option either.
[Galaxy S III General] rault18:
Yep, well the rumors where that the nexus family was gonna become a line, so there were gonna be different nexus devices by different makers at the same time

I honestly dont think that the nexus will ever have an SD slot..why? dont even ask me cause it doesnt make sense, but most likely because its was originally supposed to be a developer phone? who knows..but they need to start listening to us the users

My thing is..when I hear "nexus" I think of the cream of the cream, top of the line stuff on it..they shouldnt cheap out on parts nor design..and somehow they just keep doing that over and over again
[Galaxy S III General] rault18:
sammy used to be better but sadly you are correct..they will release the s4 and the s3 quickly will be left behind
[Galaxy S III General] rault18:
Correct. the rom im running is the Latest Paranoid android. An outstanding rom I may say
[Galaxy S III General] rault18:
Try paranoid android it feels as pure as possible and very smooth as well
[Galaxy S III General] AndreaCristiano:
So is the theme in this thread that the SGS3 is the better phone than the nexus 4?

I have been mulling this over and over in my head. I have an update in may and I don't know if I should sell my SGS3 now and get the nexus 4 then decide in may if I want to jump to SGS4 or keep my SGS3 till may and swap then ???

[Galaxy S III General] rault18:
Stay with the s3 if you are happy with it.
[Galaxy S III General] AndreaCristiano:
That's where I was leaning especially with an upgrade around the corner I can always make that decision then. I was just wondering over here if many made the swap from SGS3 and if they regret it or are OK?

Guys,

I`been searching for a week here in the forum an answer for my doubt, so I can start flashing custom roms.

I have an at&t HOX with 1.85 firmware, but I don`t live in USA, but in Brasil.

Every thread I`ve looked tells me to use this method (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1709296) for rooting my cellphone, but I concernd about something.

One of the steps of this method tells me to check for an update via OTA, and then write a code. The point is, i`m not in USA so I have no way to check for OTA softwares updates, so i`m affraid of trying doing this and something bad happen...:eek:

Anyone knows if it is safe?!?!

Thank you in advance!!!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Deleted member 3452239:
Yes its safe. Alternatively you could upgrade to 2.20 and root using xfactor, unlock your boot loader and then optionally downgrade your hboot If you want yo flash kernels and radios in recovery

[Nokia Lumia 820] Charkatak:
Hi I use T-Mobile USA as my cell phone company. Recently I was able to get a hold of Lumia 820 that is locked to AT&T. T-Mobile for example always unlocked my phones if they are locked to T-Mobile, but looks like AT&T is a different story. I have even unlocked my Android phones through rooting and so on. I have searched some paid unlocking sites, although they do have Lumia 820 listed, but AT&T is missing in the list of carriers. Is there a way to somehow get/extract the sim unlock # from the phone?
[Nokia Lumia 820] danchar4:
A customer in good standing with AT&T USA, can try calling customer service and ask them to SIM unlock the phone so that you can use your own SIM card while travelling to Europe. They may do this or they may try to sell a discounted Europe travel plan that uses your existing SIM card. If you don't get the answer you like, call back on a different day.

Good luck with any other tactic until Q2 2013.
[Nokia Lumia 820] Charkatak:
Thanks for the info! I never had AT&T and with T-Mobile it is easy, just like you suggested about calling AT&T. So you are saying that while the phone is exclusive to AT&T for 6 months, then I won't be able to unlock it for the time being? :(
[Nokia Lumia 820] Robert_hawk:

Has anyone successfully unlocked the lumia 820?
[Nokia Lumia 820] danchar4:
I called AT&T USA today and asked them about unlocking the Nokia 820.

I told them I was travelling to Europe on business and wanted to be able to buy an local SIM at the destination airport upon my arrival rather than pay for an international plan on the AT&T SIM. The rep said OK, checked a few things and told me that my phone was already unlocked and that I need not enter a code to unlock it.

I asked if I could test this out by popping in a T-Mobile SIM tomorrow just to confirm and he said it should work no problem.

I don't have a T-mobile SIM to try. Can someone please try one in their phone purchased and activated on the AT&T network? Can someone please call AT&T with the same line about travelling to Europe as above and see if you get the same info from the customer rep?

I wonder if folks trying the get their USA-sourced phones online outside of the USA first need to activate the phone on a USA carrier. Maybe it does some magic over the air.
[Nokia Lumia 820] zippov3:
I'm in Argentina, bought the phone full price a couple weeks ago. Two days ago tried with a different sim and the phone asked for unlock code :-S
[Nokia Lumia 820] Charkatak:
If you need for example, T-Mobile sim card, then just ask them. It can be deactivated or brand new sim card that doesn't have service. If you phone is locked it will show you the box to type in the code. If unlocked you shouldn't get that.
[Nokia Lumia 820] Okman_HV:
I bought broken Lumia 820 from Ebay. Repaired it but after inserting my sim I got "locked" message. Can´t get the unlock code from AT&T also as I am not their current or previous client. Also I live in Europe. Seller was not able to get the unlock code also ( electronic shop)...

Tried to make FW upgrade but no go.

Any help ?

Unlocking via PUK code?
[Nokia Lumia 820] charleswesde:
PUK codes are for sim cards, won't help with the device. When a non ATT sim is inserted it should ask for an unlock code. You'll have to purchase one online. If it does not ask for a code and just states the device it's locked that means the incorrect code has been input too many times. At that point there's nothing that can be done.
[Nokia Lumia 820] Okman_HV:

J have the 820 lumia but live in the caribbean can anyone get a code unlock for me from at&t
[Nokia Lumia 820] Glembozt:
Have you all try to flash your lumia with other firmware?

I think flash your lumia to other firmware can unlock your lumia,
[Nokia Lumia 820] MontyMontie:
If it were that easy would it already have been done? Has anyone tried flashing?
[Nokia Lumia 820] Glembozt:
I think your phone is flashed by your carrier, they was modifying the firmware, so it locked and you can't use another SIM Card

So I say again to try flash your phone with another firmware, try global version like APAC, etc, . . download your firmware and flash it with Nokia Care Suite, if you want back to your stock firmware just use Nokia Software Updater for Retail and it will select, download, and flash it automatically with your stock firmware

hope it work
[Nokia Lumia 820] brianpro700:
no, unlock the locked phone is not easy like that

you don't need (can't) to flash the global fw

all you need is the code to unlock from locked carrier to make it accept other carrier (for me is AT&T)

the unlocker code is differnce on every phone :D

here is my unlocked AT&T 820 running on Viettel (Vienamese carrier)

could someone give me some tips on removing the bloat from recovery or bootloader mode so i can get rid off all the crap. I am unlocked and rooted S-on
[HTC Droid DNA] mikeschuld:
You should be able to just remove some of the "bloat" .apk files through adb or a file manager application. That is all I did on my old Incredible.
[HTC Droid DNA] Sidewind75:
I have tried through Root Explorer. but when i reboot it all comes back. I have heard because of S-on we cannot do anything to system exept through recovery or bootloader wich is why i asked
[HTC Droid DNA] LamboDna:
You are correct just wait, the phone just came out and I'm still waiting on the UPS man lol
[HTC Droid DNA] lasphyxial:
only way i found to remove bloat was to make a flashable zip removing all the apks/odex files i wanted.
[HTC Droid DNA] rexdog1888:
Bloatware Remover(flashable zip)--> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2012388
[HTC Droid DNA] Nschneider7:
Your best bet would be to use an app like titanium backup and freeze the bloat while on stock. Why I'm suggesting this is because when you delete the Apks and an update from verizon comes out you can run into problems. That way down the line if you do want to update without flashing a rom you can just unfreeze and not have to worry about finding the bloat and reinstalling for the update.
[HTC Droid DNA] JWhetstone02:
If you do want to go through and remove the bloatware... What I did, was:

downloaded the flashable ZIP fromt he above thread

opened it with 7-Zip

found and extracted the file META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script

opened that file with notepad++ and went through and added all the .apk and .odex files I want gone (personal preference)

placed the file back in the ZIP

flashed the ZIP

bloat removed

Hi guys,

I've screwed up royally...

I got my Kindle Fire 2 (not HD) today and... tried to root it. Unsuccessfully.

It's now got a flickering Kindle Fire logo and it's responding with a 30 second to 1 minute lag (so unusable).

My Vista laptop still recognises it as an ADB device but I don't know what to do now :(

Can anyone help me please?

Many thanks.

EDIT: I've held the power button for 20+ seconds and it still does this...
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 433Mhz:
Same thing happened to me today on my fire 2. Do a reset to factory settings in the device options. It'll takes some time to get there but it is no problem. Someone should warn people with recently purchased KFs about rooting. Doesn't seem to work anymore!

Thanks again mate :)
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wmccombs:
Think I'm bricked

The root process went perfectly clean and it rebooted fine. Then I couldn't find instructions to install the Play Store. I finally found some that said to copy GoogleServicesFramework.apk to the Kindle and install, I did that cleanly. Then to copy vending.apk to /system/app/ and I did that and was able to change permissions to 664. I then rebooted the Kindle. It goes straight to the triangle. If you push the power button 5 times it reboots to the same thing. I did not try to flash TWRP to it because I saw some having problems with it. I have 10.2.1 on it. I have the proper drivers installed and each time the Kindle rebooted during boot the computer beeped that it recognized it. Since the triangle the PC no longer recognizes it, it does not show up in Device manager and it does not show up in explorer as connected. I think it is hard bricked but wanted to run it by everyone.

Sparkym3's root process went flawlessly on my Fire2, It only took a couple minutes to root and be booted to a working Kindle. I just screwed up the market process somehow.

Let me know your thoughts. Being that everything went so clean with rooting I have a hard time thinking it can be the drivers, cable, usb port.

I've rooted a phone and 2 tablets multiple times but never had this happen. Any help is greatly appreciated.

This is an exact description of the problem:

I get the Kindle Fire logo, sits there several seconds, reboots and the power light goes out and back on, then the logo comes up again, it flashes a couple of times then I get an orange triangle with an exclamation point inside Below that is a message stating "Your Kindle device cannot boot".

Below that is You can reset device to Factory defaults to fix this issue (all data will be deleted from the device"

<Menu options>

To reboot your device, press and hold the power button for 4 seconds and release.

To reset to Factory Defaults, press the power button 5 times in succession.

Well the 4 second thing does not work at all, more like 20 seconds. The pressing 5 times just reboots to the same problem and warning triangle. I tried fastboot commands but nothing.and my laptop no longer recognizes the Kindle and nothing is in Device Manager about the Kindle now. The fastboot command just says waiting for device. As I said above the root process went flawlessly and the Fire reboot 3-4 times and the laptop beeped each time that it saw it.

Any help is greatly appreciated

So, I'm totally lost. Maybe a frisbee at this point.

Anyone else having their USB port catch when plugging it in to the base of the phone? If I plug it in at an angle it isn't a problem but if I go in straight it catch's almost every time.
