[HTC Wildfire S] kevalonly111:

[HTC Wildfire S] Kishoke:
hmm.. then try flashing any other rom... because i dont think any other tweak can reduce battery drain other than full factory reset... :(

Hi,

I recently moved the pre-installed Flash Player (10.2) app from /system/app to /data/app. Since then, its icon is no longer visible in the app drawer. I moved it back to its default location, restarted phone but the icon is still missing. Any idea about how to get it back ?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greywolf907:
Hi all....

I am an infrequent user of this site, the last time I pored over the information housed in here was a couple of years ago when I found the site and various threads invaluable for me when rooting my old and trusty HTC Desire.

I am now the owner of a fab and groovy galaxy S3 which I aquired in the UK from carphone warehouse.

I am using Vodafone as a carrier, but my understanding is that the stock phone was not tied in any way to a carrier.

It didn't take me long to root the phone, I only rooted the device because I wanted to get rid of various bits of samsung/bloatware, not in order to Flash a new rom to the phone.

I was more than happy with this until I received a notification that there was an OTA update, this I deemed to be the JB OS, which of course would not install due to the fact the phone was rooted and was using cwm etc.

After a week of cancelling the update and being reminded of it every three hours I decided that it was maybe time to update, I discovered that in order to do this I needed in effect to put the phone back to its factory state, soo I completed a factory reset on the phone and in no time at all I was up and running again with an unrooted S3....however, despite this in the last three weeks I have seen hide nor hair of the update that seemed to be banging at my door for so long!

My question therefore is:

is there something I am unaware of that is now stopping my phone from receiving the OTA update via settings/about device/software update/update(check for updates)?

To help those of you that know about this stuff here are the details from the phone that may help you to help me...and anyone else not in the know enough!

Device Status = Normal (while rooted this obviously showed as being modified)

Model Number GT-19300

Android version 4.0.4

baseband version - 19300XXLG8

kernel version - 3.0.15-928452-user se.infra@sep-107 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jul 26 12:06:08 KST 2012

Build Number IMM76D.19300XXBLGB

In addition prior to unrooting the phone the foillowing info was parsed and returned :

AP: 19300XXBLG8

CP: 19300XXLH1

CSC: 19300OXABLG8

Following unrooting and completing a factory reset.....the same process returns this information.....

AP: 19300XXBLG8

CP: 19300XXLG8

CSC: Unknown.

My apologies for the length of the post for what is probably a trivial matter, but as a Phone noob (but a systems pro) you can never have too much info!

many thanks in anticipation!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
It's because your CSC was lost when you unrooted and hence OTA won't work. You would have been better off using the toolkit (see original development forum) to simply download and flash the JB ROM yourself, then no need to unroot etc.

You can still do this and you'll also get updates usually faster than OTA.

Regarding your bust CSC, try:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greywolf907:
Hmmm...well...

many thanks for the info re the cause of the issue, however, having looked at the following I still am having no joy.

1) downloaded a correct csc file and using odin flashed it to my phone, however, it is still showing the same information as before.

2) Found a stock Rom. the exact same Rom as that which is installed, that has been flashed using Odin and once again, upon reboot the information is exactly the same.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
I'm not quite sure why you want to fix it, flashing jb yourself is much quicker, but a quick search found:

Q. I have flashed XXXX ROM and now my CSC is unknown?

A. Generally Speaking CSC does not make much of a difference. If you are really facing a problem which is related to CSC such as some specific apps not working, some language not there etc. Either:

Use

Type *#272*Device IMEI# at Phone dial pad.

Select the CSC that you want.

Click Install.

or Install CSC changer app from the Market and change the CSC

Both ways yopur device will be factory resetted.

Good luck.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greywolf907:
I can....

...find all of that myself, It doesn't really help much if the person searching amongst the huge amount of disarticulated information liberally strewn around this forum is faced constantly with broken links or unhelpful replies and threads that vanish up their own orifice.

In order to decorticate that information it helps if some form of standardisation or common language is employed.

I have my reasons for asking the original question.

I am facing a problem and asking for advice and help in order to rectify the issue.

I have tried to flash the JB ROm myself, I am despite what you may consider not stupid, however, I am receiving errors when flashing the rom from the 'update' menu from the recovery menu within the phone.

Elsewhere on this forum I discover that it may be an issue with the csc being in an unknown state, hence my post in the first place, If I was able to follow the instructions and all was working as it should I would not bother anyone here or indeed waste my time doing so.

by querying the csc by using the dial pad it shows me that the correct one is still there, so installing it seems pointless, however, as stated at the very beginning of the question, when parsing the phone for detail info it tells me that the csc is 'UNKNOWN'
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ag4751:
Try installing this from the Android Market

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manniakk.cscselector&

Run it and update your CSC to your correct one

EDIT :- Just looked at your phone info in post 1 again, this relates to UK unbranded version so your CSC should be BTU

You shouldn't normally have a problem updating a rooted phone to newer versions provided the base rom is still stock I have never had a problem with mine but everyone is different I guess, I did mine via Kies then just re-rooted afterwards.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greywolf907:
...well...

Hi and thank you also...however, I have checked the sales code and it is properly installed and shown as being BTU, which is correct, this is shown of course by typing into the dial pad...et al ad nausea....whatever, it is correctly displayed, the issue is that when typing into the dial pad *#1234# in order to retrieve the information contained there, it is returning CSC UNKNOWN.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ag4751:
OK you wrote this while I was writing my edit in the previous post.

Have you tried just installing the latest 4.1.1 BTU version using Odin you can get it from the Sammobile web site its the PDA version I9300XXDLJ4

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greywolf907:
......not
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ag4751:
You need to extract the file located inside the zip file, then start Odin, click the PDA button and find the extracted file, put your phone in download mode, connect to your PC, wait for Odin to connect then start the update.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Greywolf907:
mucho...

yes I understand all that bit, I didn't make myself clear maybe....The problem I had was that the file I had downloaded seemed to be a zip file containing the whole system, i.e a cloned image, it didn't work...however, the link you so very helpfully provided was just waht i was looking for and couldn't find myself, a single tar/md5 file which has been downloaded, installed and is up and running....I now have JB, but still the csc is classified as unknown...anyhow, that doesn't matter much until the next time I need to update.

My very best regards to you and huge thanks.

have a good 'un

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cenkaetaya:
Hi, this is Driving me NUTS about the note 2.

I will be typing on the keyboard, and itl just switch to left or right handed mode. I then have to go to settings and disable left / right hand mode, and go back to typing.

2 mins later pressing some typing combination it does it again....

What controls this damn thing, nothing in the samsung help says anything about gestures or how it turns to small mode.

I like the keyboard and am now feeling forced to download a new one because i simply cannot be forced to go to settings and disable (left right hand mode) every 2 mins of typing.

how do fix this?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] dnanj:
Pinch to zoom in/out.

If you pinch on the stock/default keyboard it goes into "mini" mode.

Pinch out and it goes back to normal mode.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cenkaetaya:
wow yes that did it, its a bit finicky on the keyboard takes 2-3 pinch to zooms.

man that is SOOOOO annoying, i wish i could disable this crap.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dmwitz:
Unable to disable.

This function "One-handed" input is activated by pinching or by the settings menu. You cannot however disable it. Weird indeed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] spycedtx:
I've landed in mini keyboard a few times. Any pointers on the pinching, as all I end up doing is typing random letters.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] P1 Wookie:
Yeah they really should have made it to where you can actually disable it. I did it a couple times when I first go the phone, but then I put my swiftkey on there and didn't have to worry about it anymore.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] UserNamer:
This is so ridiculously awesome, thank you for pointing out the feature! I am finding fewer and fewer reasons to stick with the Swype Betas.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] cenkaetaya:
just try a few times, when i first did it, it didnt work either.

its super awkward and i wish this feature could be totally removed, i do it every 2-3 mins of typing.

i think i will be forced to dl another keyboard app.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] spycedtx:
I turned it off in settings and haven't had it happen since.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] IAmSixNine:
Probably 2 things.

The low signal threshold is set to high for our devices.

The LTE scan timer is set for 30 minutes.

The airplane mode trick usually forces it to re-scan and thats why it usually works. But i still think 30 minutes is to long.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sand1303:
So is there a way to change these two things
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] IAmSixNine:
Not sure about the signal threshold but the scan timer yes. You need your MSL code.

From the dial pad dial ##3282# (##DATA#) Menu pops up, select Edit.

Type in your MSL CODE.

The scroll down to LTE Record, the LTE Scan Timer. Default is 30, i changed mine to 10. Some go lower to 5.. I have seen no change in battery life..

I was reflashing back to stock firmware gingerbread 2.3.6 from eryigits due to its massive slowdown from its initial install. But then after flashing the stock firmware it boot looped so i thought maybe there was something wrong with the partitions and loaded what I got from another thread. But then the progress bar in Odin wasn't moving at all so I terminated odin and opened another instance similarly it didn't progressed.

Just flash the rom in odin again see post above me

if it bootloops again format the device in recovery mode

There is a way to fix this.

I was flashing STOCK GB 2.3.6, because i didn't like Erygit's rom, and i got the bootloop too.

The bootloop was caused by the fact i didnt do a Factory data reset, and when i did it, i rebooted from Recovery and the Stock ROM booted.

Just do a factory reset from recovery, it should work.
