I flashed the zip file for "no exchange security pin". I guess it's not the correct file because now I can't set up exchange email and I'm getting forced closes. Is there a way to undo a flash? Or will I need to factory reset and start all over?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] *Madmoose*:
There's no undo button for a flash as it overwrites existing stuff typically. This is why a backup should be done before flashing anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] DroidOnRoids:
There is no 'undo' after a zip flash. The only way to fix it is to factory reset and start over.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jinwu57:
Thanks. Just did a factory reset.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdg1:
I apologize if this has been addressed in another thread but I couldn't find a culmination of App suggestions to address my concern.

I love all the functions on the Note 10.1 although I probably wouldn't use them all.

I also know that the Note 10.1 Stylus only works on that tablet.

But I just can't pass up on the newer specs of the N10 (even without the expandable memory).

My question is are there any apps that allow you to do the multi-screen multitasking that the Note 10.1 can do with your everyday stylus.

I like the clipping of pictures and/or text with the stylus which can be added to documents or text messages.

The handwriting recognition features including the math formulas and shape drawing help.

So many more features and too many to list.

Just curious of any N10 owner who made the same decision as I am about to but was also able to get at least a little bit of the many things the Note 10.1 can do.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rezadue:
You can buy PS Touch on the market for photo editing. I have.

However if you find an app for math formula and shape recognition, i would love to know it too.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chilimac02:
Way back in 2002, I used a Pocket PC with Microsoft Transcriber. It allowed me to write on the screen, then recognize the handwriting and input that into the text box. Basically, it was a keyboard replacement app.

I mention this because I have NEVER seen anything for Android, or iDevices that does this - and the evil empire was doing it 10 years ago. I would love for my tablet to do this!! Yes, I have seen the plethora of "notebook" apps that allow handwriting, but they are not keyboard replacements.

I would like to find what is the usual network speed for Wind Mobile in Canada.

Currently I am seeing 3 MB download and 90-114 KB upload in North York, ON, using T769UVLH5 or T989DTLLE4 radios.

Anyone got better throughput?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] cricketAC:
Same speeds at Cooksville, ON, with LE4, LI1, LH1.

Download Network signal info app. It tells you what maximum speeds your tower can give you. Mines always at 7.2mbps where as this phone is capable of 42mbps i suppose.

I'm running Slim Bean 3.1.0 on my SGS3. Recently, I've been trying to flash the AGAT and KT747 kernels on my phone, but with no success.

I've tried flashing kernel,wipe cache/dalvik, rebooting, and then installing the Slim Rom file over it.

Anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sponix2ipfw:
98% Sure you are trying to mix an AOSP based ROM with a TW (Stock) type Kernel. That doesn't typically work. There is an option for the AOSP version of Ktoonsez kernel though that _should_ be a better fit with that ROM.

Have fun and continue to read up *Grin*
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] grainyrice:
The thing is, I'm almost positive I downloaded the AOSP version for the KT747 kernel
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sponix2ipfw:
That's a good start, the AGAT says LJ7 based in the Post, leading one to believe it is for TW ROMS. And on the Ktoonsez it does have a download link for either TW or AOSP. One you are looking for should be named "KT747-Kernel-AOSP-JB-SPR-12-11-2012.zip". Verify that and speak up again if you are still having issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] grainyrice:
Yes, I'm certain that was the file I flashed, because I remembered noting that the file was 7.72MB prior to downloading.

Also, I'm sure that the Slim Rom is compatible with the KT747 kernel because several posts were made on the thread saying that

the battery life was amazing, which made me wonder if I was doing something wrong.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sponix2ipfw:
Reading your original post, The order should go 1) ROM then 2) Kernel ... Then Wiping Cache and Dalvik-Cache (And other wipes if needed). Reason for this is if you flash the Kernel first, then the Rom you are over writing the custom Kernel with whatever is packaged with the ROM.

That is the only other obvious thing I see at this point. Hope that helps..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pastert33:
Did you flash the kernel fix that slim says you need to flash in order to run another kernel? Guess you didn't...

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] WinterPhoenix96:
A few more things you should know before I get into it. First off, this is my mother's phone, and about two days ago, she went to unplug and use her SGS4G after it had been charging overnight, and it wouldn't respond to the Power/Lock Button (It appeared simply stuck). So, naturally, she did a battery pull on it, and tried to turn it back on. After she hit the Power Button though, the Splash came up like it normally does, except instead of progressing with booting, the screen went black for a second and then went back to the Splash and it did/does this indefinitely (An obvious sign of a Bootloop).

Now. What doesn't make sense to me is that this was running the Stock ROM (I don't know if it was Froyo or Gingerbread), yet this still happened. I haven't tampered with the Phone at all, and my mother isn't too fond of the idea of Rooting, so unless the previous owner (Yes, it is a used phone) tampered with it and then restored it to Stock, then I have no idea.

Things I have tried:

Heimdall One-Click For Dummies (With and Without flashing Bootloaders)

Juls317's Noob Guide's "Potential Problems" section (With both Heimdall and ODIN)

A few Kernels (bhundven's Kernel, drhonk's KG4 Kernel)

sygee's ODIN/Heimdall Flashable ROM

hailthetheif's Step by Step Rooting Thread

Also, after I flash anything, whether it be with ODIN or Hiemdall Suite, or Hiemdall's One-Click, if I leave the phone plugged into the computer afterward, it will go to the Splash Screen and then to the Battery Screen (Which doesn't work, it just freezes with the Loading Wheel) and it'll Bootloop with the Battery Screen. If I unplug it after Flashing, it goes back to the classic Splash Bootloop that has been happening since Day 1. It doesn't even get past the Kernel.

I know that at least the Kernel and the Bootloaders can be Flashed however, by how they act on the Device. For example, if I flash certain Gingerbread Bootloaders, I can only get into Download Mode with PWR + VOL-, whereas on the Froyo Bootloader (Includes Stock), you use VOL+ + VOL-. With the Kernel, for example, if I flash a TeamAcid Kernel, their Logo comes up on the Splash Screen, but it still does the Splash Bootloop no matter what.

One final thing, if I flash a Kernel/ROM that includes a Recovery Mode, I can't access it at all (PWR + VOL+). I couldn't/can't access the Stock Recovery at all either.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] champ1919:
One final thing, if I flash a Kernel/ROM that includes a Recovery Mode, I can't access it at all (PWR + VOL+). I couldn't/can't access the Stock Recovery at all either.

Pull the battery, hold power& both volumes, drop the battery back in. Should bring you to recovery (gb, not sure, can't remember froyo same or not). Wipe data & cache etc.

On the heimdell, awesome threads that you quoted. Follow directions and it should get you there. Kj6.. you may have to flash it twice to get the bootloaders for gb(it's setup that way so you can't fubar it without trying really hard). You would have to check the load boot loader box on second flash.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] LiangChi:
I just had this same exact issue. No matter what I flashed, it wouldn't work. Just kept with the boot loop. Now the difference with my issue was, I was still able to get into CWM and/or Download mode. (I was running custom rom). Heimdall wouldn't work for me because it was a driver issue. Odin, well, all the links I found for Odin were dead..

Anyway, when you're working with Heimdall, does it recognize your phone and flash? I had to flash it over twice for it to get to work. It is possible she was on Froyo and you're trying to flash it over with a GB stock rom could be causing an issue. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I'd say try sourcing a Heimdall to Stock Froyo ROM and see what happens from there.

This thread helped me out the most:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2042927&highlight=frozen+at+boot
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] WinterPhoenix96:
It does recognize the phone, and it does Flash (As far as I know). I used Zadig, so there shouldn't be an Driver problems. I flashed it several times with a lot of different things, however, I just now flashed it twice with the Heimdall One-Click again to see if that made any difference. It did not. I'm still stuck in that Splash Bootloop.

Also, what did you mean by, "I'd say try sourcing a Heimdall to Stock Froyo ROM and see what happens from there."? I haven't ever seen that suggested anywhere, and I have no idea where I would find a Stock Froyo ROM that is flashable via Heimdall.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] champ1919:
Able to get in to recovery and wipe? Wipe data & caches. Got cwm? Which one click? Eilleo(sorry for the spelling) put out a one click that was to be used as stepping stone to ics only.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] LiangChi:
I'm honestly not to sure if a Froyo ROM for Heimdall exists. I do believe seeing one for Odin, though. Not sure if that link is still alive. I'll see if I can find it again.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] lumin30:
We do have a Froyo One-Click but if KJ6 One-Click is not working for him I do not know why you think the Froyo One-Click will.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] LiangChi:
I figured if the phone was still running on the Stock Froyo when this happened, that it may work as opposed to forcing the phone to accept a new ROM while it's still clashing with itself.

It's worth a shot at this point.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] grovernyc:
Stuck on Froyo

I hate to hijack this thread but it describes my current situation and symptoms perfectly and I never saw a conclusion / fix.....

I just got a used phone from ebay (verified SGH-T959V in battery compartment) and have run into the same exact problems described in the start of this posting. Phone was running Froyo and I attempted to upgrade to Gingerbread with Heimdall One-Clicks. I was actually successful at one point but then it crashed when I tried to install boot loaders to get rid of rainbow screen at startup.

Now all I ever get is a splash screen bootloop whenever I try any of the Heimdall One-Click gingerbread variants. I have also tried Odin and the Gremlin remover with same results of splash screen bootloop (Linda always completes). I was however able to access the new kernel CWM recovery and try to flash other gingerbread ROMs - splash screen bootloops on all attempts.

So I gave up on Gingerbread and tried using CWM recovery from gingerbread ROMS to install CM9 / CM10 / Slim Bean. I was able to upgrade almost perfectly but had same problem for each one of these. Not the bootloop thankfully but instead the headphone speaker (if that is the right description) doesn't work. No sound for phone touchpad, screen selections, and when receiving a phone call (have to switch to speaker phone as back/big speaker works or plugin headset to hear whoever was calling).

All of the other features were great but I really needed to be able to use my phone as a phone! The Heimdall One-Click worked to return me to Gingerbread with same problem of splash screen bootloop (gets to pink welcome letters every once in a while). Then I used the Heimdall One-Click for Froyo (as suggested by LiangChi) and got a perfectly working version of Froyo.

Used Froyo CWM recovery to switch to ICBINB ROM which works fairly decently.... Am I doomed to stay at Froyo though? I tried to follow all of the guides to a T but not sure what I might be doing wrong or if I might have purchased a damaged phone - can't recall ever testing camera and it still doesn't work on current stable Froyo. At various points I tried different cables, SD cards, USB ports, removing/reinstalling drivers, etc... Even tried Kies when I got back to stock Froyo to upgrade - went to Splash Screen Bootloop!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] champ1919:
You have so much info here... let's see what we can figure out.

nope, it sounds like dirty flashes to me...

I would start with entering cwm and disabling lagfix & wiping data & caches.... linda needs to do her thing after the first boot up...

Then, I would reflash the germlin remover, If I remember correctly, you will have to do this twice (second time will allow you to check the add bootloaders)...

After the phone hits the think-pink, then you can battery dump, reenter download and flash the kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] grovernyc:
Dirty Flashing

Champ - I think you might be on to something...haven't read about dirty flashing but it sounds right. I have been wiping data and caches (even tired reformatting system with a few roms). I do remember running into problems trying to following a few instructions sets that asked to disable the voodoo lagfix - hit option it just doesn't disable. After hitting disable see below Voodoo lagfix is actually: enabled next boot: disabled but even if I reboot back to CWM it is still enabled.

I might try the Odin Gremlin remover again. I was just getting frustrated after several days of failed upgrades. Second opinion on if it might be hardware/memory vs user error. I really didn't understand why even Kies (which everyone disparages) upgrade from stock Froyo also caused same loop.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] champ1919:
Retry the gremlim remover. Redownload it incase of a bad download.

Lumin30 has a good guide in his signature for the heimdall one clicks.

I use Odin, I have used his one clicks without problems though.

Look up USB wall charger hack. I can't remember which thread it's in. But essentially you're going to need a 5v usb wall charger and any old usb cable that you dont care about cutting and splicing. There will be 4 cables inside your usb cable. But you only need the Black and Red I think. Then you will need to directly connect the appropriate wires directly to the battery terminals t the correct polarity. I had to do it awhile ago when I bricked my phone and let the battery die.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KyraOfFire:
Personal story =>

I used Apex since version 0.3. It was featured in the first custom ROM I ever flashed (an early ICS port for the abandoned HTC G2). There wasn't any alternative anyways, stock launcher didn't work at all. Then I bought it when it came out of beta to support the devs.

I already spent my money there, and it works, and I am the kind of guy who doesn't want to change an old habit unless necessary. So... unless Android Does do a Federico Carnales, I will probably keep milking my well-spent $4 :D

Nova does seem to work better and have higher user satisfaction though.

Edit: I bought Launcher Pro too. Abandoned software/hardware is not something unusual, but Federico Carnales really is a shame.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
I was the same way with ADW EX, except I bought it when it was on sale so I wasn't too phased by it. Honestly, you can't go wrong with either Nova or apex. It just all comes down to where you spend your money towards meaning you're committed. I used to prefer Apex over Nova, I swapped over to Nova when Nova Prime was on a Google sale. That's the only reason why I converted.

ADW EX is back but I still prefer Nova :p
