[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krep3:
Hey guys this is my first time messing with custom roms and my biggest fear has come true i think i bricked my phone, at least soft brick.

here is what happened:

I decided to flash supernexus 5 rom and everything went well, however my wifi wasnt working i tried to do a nandroid recover from a nandroid backup that i had from a while back made with the same version of cmw but it i got the message "no files found" even when i had put the folder with the recovery in my internal storage in the cmw folder. I decided to do a factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache but this didn't solve my problem with cmw not detecting the files then i went on and did this i went to mounts and storage as i read on a thread that mounting and unmounting everything solved the problem for a guy but this did not help either, then i went to mounts and storage and formated cache, data and system as shown in this youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCoI62PG7jE&feature=g-hist :( after that i tried to rebot the phone but it wont get pass the inicial galaxy s3 i9300 screen, i tried whipe data cache and factory reset again but i still can't make it boot ,I can get to recovery however it still doesn't see the folder that i have there. If i connect the phone to the pc it says installing drivers for the device but it fails and i can't see the phone anymore as connected.

Please help me you have no idea how much i saved for buying this and i don't want to loose it.

this is the version of cmw that im using CF-SGS3-CWM-v5.5-v1.5
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
You formatted system so you have no os to boot! Flash stock Rom with Odin.

Nb.......if you are using cm10/aosp you need to flash an ics Rom, let it boot, and enable wifi before then going on to flash the Rom as wifi won't work coming direct from jb Rom
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krep3:
:laugh: THANKS SO MUCH you are the best, i was freaking out is almost 4am here and i couldn't sleep, you're a life saver.

Any idea why cmw doesn't see the restore files on the internal sd card
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
did you move the entire folder to your internal sd?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krep3:
yes everithing, and put it in the cmw folder
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
can you remember if the backup was created with a different version of cwm to that which you are trying to restore it from?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krep3:
yes it was the same version only thing is that when i made it i have rooted with cf-root 6.4, but after flashing the stock elk4 leak i used cf auto root and then installed the recovery on its own but is the same version.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
hmmmm......not sure what the problem is then, only thing I can suggest is flash the cf root again(not the auto one) and see if that sorts it, but I would move that backup back to its original location first
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Krep3:
thanks again!! i will try flashing it again.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
It's just a shot in the dark, but it's the direction I would head in if it happened to me......or I would just abandon the backup and start afresh !
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UltimateGoblin:
Hi everyone!

I'm the happy possessor of a three-week-old Nexus 4. I'm writing because I think I might have some problems with the charger. If I connect the AC plug to the wall (

without connecting it to the phone

) and then I unplug it after two seconds and I bring the adapter to my ear, I can distinctly hear a buzzing noise.

As long as the charger is working fine, I said to myself, I'm not taking it as an issue. Well, I think that now something is maybe going wrong: charge times are unacceptable: yesterday when the phone was at 1% of battery left I switched it off and plugged it to the wall. I let it charge for three and a half whole hours before it finally finished charging. Charge times are almost similar when the phone is on, but I don't have to touch it, otherwise it's going to take ages before it fully charges.

Before trying to charge the Nexus 4 with HTC Desire's charger (I haven't done so already as it's written all over the place to always charge phones with the chargers provided), I wanted to know your experience: does your charger buzz as well if you plug it to the wall and you bring it to your ear?

How long does a full charge generally take to you?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tonk99:
That buzzing noise is pretty normal for such AC power supplys. I think most of them do the buzzing thing.

My experience with charge times are similar to yours. From 0% to 100% is about 3 hours with stock charger. 3 hours isn't exactly great, but considering the rather high battery capacity, it isn't bad either. But you are right - If you have a charger with a higher charging current, you can try if it will charge faster.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spitefulcheerio:
No matter what amperage charger you use, your phone will only draw a set amount of amps

Yeah I had to hunt this down the other day. I'm sure someone will need it . I was shocked that this amazing phone wouldn't play a freaking flash video stock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nosit1:
It's not that it won't play stock, it's because it is being phased out by Adobe. They canned it from the Market sometime in August and will no longer be making regular updates to it, in order to progress movement over to HTML5 content.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] JonMS:
Adobe has every version on their website. http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html

Anyone get an error "there was a problem parsing the package"?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] -BoneZ-:
Actually, Adobe and Samsung made an agreement to keep Flash updated for the Galaxy S3, which also means for the Galaxy Note 2 as well since they have almost identical hardware/software. Flash was just updated again a couple weeks ago to .34. I've been using .29 on my devices.

And even though the latest Flash versions are only for the S3, they will work on most any device running Jellybean.

The following thread is keeping updated with the latest versions of Flash, along with text and video tutorials on how to install:

So the current version of my I9250 Galaxy Nexus won't let me update to anything newer than 4.0.4 due to restrictions (checks for updates, and none are found).

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
Most strange. A T version is just a P1000 with Telstra modem.

What you described is like flashing a L/N ROM into a P1000 or vice versa.

Can you still boot to download mode?

And was it in working condition before you flash overcome?

How well do you know your tab? Maybe only the chassis is Telstra.

I have read the countless posts on the 3g issues, but when I try to access *#*#4636#*#* and change to wcdma only or preferred it won't stay the option just instantly changes back to CDMA and won't stick.

I was on paranoid android and flashed the cm10.1 12/08 nightly hoping the fix would work but it hasn't really. I read of a flashable fix and was hoping to get that but the link is down. Not really sure what to do at this point and I don't want to go back to touch wiz
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Visionikz03:
Not sure wat 3g issues u speak of... 3g should be the least of ur concerns on cm10. Changing the settings in *#*#4636#*#* is temporary. Use the network selection mode under system settings in cm10. Ur problem is most likely not from 3g but from the hand off from 3g to (ehrpd) to lte and any combination of the above. It is a known issue even if ur not in a full lte covered area yet. The APN is not configured properly. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35205882.

And I'm pretty sure there's an apn commit being entered in the next nightly that addresses the problem
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] drprince89:
As a user the problem manifests itself as me not being able to get 3g back unless I reboot so that's why I called it a 3g issue, sorry for not using the correct jargon. But thanks for the link.

The zip in that link worked temporarily but now I'm back to the same issues but worse because I completely lose all radios a few times a minute, except WIFI when lte is off in settings. When lte/cdma is selected in settings I have the same issues as before.

I think at this point I'm just going back to a touch wiz Rom it's not worth the missed calls and text messages to be on an awesome Rom. When my phone came back on from the fix i had like five text messages pop up from last night. And now I'm always just going to winner what I missed. I heard this bug mainly affects non touch wiz roms
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heartyclair:
I have HTC Mytouch 4g, it was on gingerbread, and I downgraded it to froyo so that I can root it. Then after i rooted it, I tried to install the Android_Revolution HD on it but I got stuck on the stage where I need to install the ROM. When I hit apply update.zip, it just fails. So I just stopped trying. Then when I was trying to install apps from google play store, it wouldn't let me install any apps, it says no connection. It's been annoying, and now I can't even download apps. So I decided I just want to undo all the rooting and downgrading, is that possible? Can someone help me or link me the guide/steps on how to just set my phone back to stock ROM and unroot it. :(?

Thanks everyone for the help. I finally got it working, I installed the Royal Ginger 3.0 ROM on my htc mytouch 4g, and it's so smooth and fast.

Way better than the stock mytouch 4g lol. Now I'm thinking about unrooting the device following the steps on this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=924923

Also, I wonder if there's a stable, smooth, and fast ROM that is already out for the Samsung Galaxy SIII. I'm thinking about rooting my new phone and installing a custom ROM on it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estallings15:
If you're thinking of selling it or keeping it, I'd suggest leaving it rooted. Either way, it's better. Only thing I'd worry about is if a kid was going to use it.

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaptainKelley:
Slow Down and Take a Breath.

If you ran into a simple mistake like "update.zip" on the S3, there isn't a vast library with every unbrick method like the MT4G. If you're that close to upgrading, perfect your flashing skills on a phone that you don't have to live with for the next two years. If you brick this phone, you can always go into the store with "This thing finally quit on me. Gimme Sammy 3." It's also a wonderful chance to try out every ROM out there.

Just my two dimes and a nickle.

HELP!!!! I have an SGH-i747 Samsung Galaxy S3 U.S.A. AT&T Model, and I messed up. But I don't think it's real bad, I just don't know how to fix it.

So basically, I rooted the phone a couple of days ago, and later installed ROM Manager ClockWork Mod Recovery. After a couple of days, I finally thought I would try flashing a ROM. I tried to install the ROM with CWM, but instead I accidentally flashed the file "gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip" which is for GingerBread. After the phone rebooted the "SAMSUNG" Logo came on, then the "Rethink Possible" AT&T Logo screen, then it comes to the "Welcome to SAMSUNG SGH-I747 Touch the android to begin." Screen. When I press the Android, the phone acts like it's going start the setup process, but then gives me an ERROR Message that says "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped." I don't know how to fix this, and haven't found any topics on it yet. Please Help! Thanks in advance.

So after watching a bunch of unboxing videos, I noticed that the PCB color is different from unit to unit. Some have a green motherboard, some have a turquoise color, and some have a blue color. I don't know if Samsung makes revision to their PCBs for the Note 2 every now and then; I don't know if this would indicate any kind of problem. However, I'm just curious to know why this is the case. Are there different manufacturers responsible for the PCB production? What color is your PCB?

To find out, remove the back cover and look at the color of the microSD and microSIM slots.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] sanjsrik:
Hi all,

I've read, I've searched. Both here and on google and haven't found anything so far.

Does anyone know if there is a desktop cradle that charges the device with the standard battery installed while also having a spare port in the back that will charge or accommodate the (for example) Hyperion 4200 MaH battery?

I found a few cradles that will accommodate the regular battery in the back but they're all slots. Years ago, when I had my Evo, there were charging cradles that also had the capacity to charge extended batteries, just trying to find something similar.

I would like to find something like this because I have enough cases that will accommodate the standard battery, but I also carry the extended Hyperion battery with me with their back case in case I run low. I'd like to know that the extended battery when I pull it out of the cradle in the morning has a full charge and I'm not walking around with a discharged battery.

Any help or advice would be most appreciated.
