[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] khrizg35:
While Sprint CEO Dan Hesse appeared at Citi’s Entertainment, Media and Telecommunications conference Thursday to talk up Sprint’s new LTE plans, he let slip a change in Sprint’s data policies that could have a big impact on iPhone and other smartphone customers lured in by Sprint’s unlimited plans. Hesse acknowledged that Sprint has been throttling back speeds to the 1 percent heaviest consumers of smartphone data. While technically, the service is still unlimited, the admission leaves egg on Hesse’s face since he’s criticized the competition for adopting similar data restrictions in the past.

Hi guys im from the Skyrocket section, but that's AT&T, so I came here.

I was wondering since I know every ROM has a built in hotspot setting if you go to settings > More > And under the Mobile Networks

I don't have the Mobile Hotspot built into my plan so Im just wondering if I use it will I get charged the $15/month?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] badaphooko01:
no you wont get charged, instead you will get redirected to the Tmobile site that trys to sell it too you. For some reason i kept getting that same message using alot of roms until I switched to the last side kick's kannged version of liquid smooth, now i can tether with no problems.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ZdProjects:
Correct me if I'm wrong.

I think it depends on the rom you're running. Most custom roms, you can tether without getting charged right? I know I've USB tethered just fine. On liquidsmooth I did wireless tether without a problem too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jrosetto:
With mine on any ROM I'm able to use up to 2GB data per month on tether and then I get the redirect.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ZdProjects:
Cool, I never use that much so I never run into that problem. Thanks, I'll keep that in mind too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] alisheroz176:
hotspot

do you guys have to freeze anything using titanium backup pro or anything of that sort? or do you just go straight into the tethering?

SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 2 TOOLKIT V3.0.0 [18TH DEC 2012] RELEASED!!

ChangeLog

ToolKit v3.0.0 (18th December 2012)

+Rewrote soo many parts its hard to list them all

+Changed the Model Selection screen

+Split up images for all supported models to make them easier to distinguish

+Added support for Verizon, GT-N7105 (lte), AT&T and Korean SK Telecom

+Added new options to Root/Unroot Screen

+Added root+busybox+rename recovery restore files via Custom Recovery

+Added Device Information Screen

+Added instant reply donate link to Toolkit

+Soo many more behind the scene changes

This release is a very big update and has soo many changes I can't list them all above.

There is no Auto Update available to V3.0.0 as the new file structure I have adopted means the Auto Update is nearly as big as the full version. Please download the full version from the first post and then you can Auto Update to future versions from there.

If I missed any models please let me know and I will have to add them as an Auto Update.

Lastly if you find any bugs or errors please let me know as there are soo many changes and new models I couldnt possibly test them all on my Note2 (gsm). All the core functions are working there just might be some typos (I hope).

Enjoy :)

Mark.

First of all - thank you for your work - it is amazing how thoroughly you have grown this product/service for such an incredible number of different phones.

I am curious about something - forgive me if this is a dumb question - many of the more recent ROMS we have availalble are based on the International 7105 Note 2 -

I assume that because this is the firmware we are using, we neeed to make that selection when choosing our device when Galaxy Tool Kit starts up?

Is that correct?

SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 2 TOOLKIT AUTO UPDATE V3.1.0 [21ST DEC 2012] AVAILABLE!!

Changelog:

+Added CWM 6.0.2.5 Recovery Images for ATT, LTE, Sprint, TMobile + Verizon

+Updated all the root/unroot procedures for more stability

+Added Sideload any zip file via Custom Recovery [CWM or TWRP] to Main Menu

+Added support for TMOBILE [SGH-T889] build JRO03C ALK8

+Added option to disable Verizon Start Info Screen via Toolkit Settings

+Changed NAND Restore path to /data/media to support JB4.2 [when it arrives to the device]

For people who do not want or cannot get the Auto Update versions you can download cwm touch from http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager and use the Toolkit to create a tar file and flash it via odin. The Toolkit just makes it ALLOT easier.

I have uploaded all of my toolkits to goo.im so if you ever need to download one click on the link in my sig.

[Auto Updates are only accessible if you have donated to the Toolkit project, received an activation code and unlocked the donator features. Auto Updates are a much faster and easier way of pushing small updates that would otherwise not be worth doing. I can push a single textual change or add support for a new build without having to go through the whole process of building a full version and uploading a large file. IF you are not able to or do not want to donate to unlock the Auto Update feature (and other donator features) then all the smaller updates are collated and a full build made when I have time or if there are enough updates to warrant it. This is the easiest way to make sure all the Toolkits are as up to date as possible. IF you have any views about this please pm me about them and do not post in the open thread]

Enjoy :)

My friend..apparently this dev has been out of touch for several weeks for unknown reasons. yours is not the first issue/complaint of the tool kit being allegedly out of order in some ways. So, like I have read..use other rooting methods..aka cf-autoroot..as I have done. and move on. ( we can speculate

that this dev has something serious going on in his personal/business life that has required all of his attention.:eek:

Sorry it has taken soo long to finish but im proud to release the updated Android Toolkit with added support for Samsung devices and new builds. I still have a few devices to add to the Toolkit [Samsung Galaxy Note 3, Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0, Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, Samsung Galaxy Camera and Samsung Galaxy Gear] but the Toolkit now supports the following:

Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Nexus 4

Nexus 5

Nexus 7 [2012]

Nexus 7 [2013]

Nexus 10

Samsung Galaxy S3

Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini

Samsung Galaxy S4 [NEW SUPPORTED DEVICE]

Samsung Galaxy Note 2

Supported devices and latest supported builds *HERE*

ChangeLog

Unified Android ToolKit v1.2.4 [Note 2 V5.0.0] 10th March 2014

+Added support for Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini,*Samsung Galaxy S4 and*Samsung Galaxy Note 2

+Updated support for latest builds in all device modules

+Root options support insecure boot and custom recovery methods [all rewritten]

+Added KNOX notification disabler for Samsung modules

+Added Root Checker to check the status of your root/busybox

+Added more help screens to the Information section and added ability to save screen and send to default printer

+Added philz_touch Advanced cwm recovery to Samsung modules [will be added to Nexus modules soon]

+Added option in build selection screen to disable all adb root functions [custom recovery functions available]

+Toolkit will disable insecure boot functions if insecure boot image not available

+Updated Samsung drivers to 1.5.33.0

+Re-wrote most of the code to Change the way lots of functions work [more efficient and more stable]

+Many more changes I can't think of right now

Existing activation codes will still work to update device modules in the Unified Android Toolkit to the pro version of the device you donated to. I am updating the Auto Updates for the newly supported devices but it's probably easier to download the full version and re-activate as it is such a big update.

If you have any feedback please send it to markskippen@gmail.com for now as emails to toolkit.support@skipsoft.net are still not coming through to me.

Hope you enjoy.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] eclypse3demons:
Does anyone know how to flash the stock recovery after running this? I no longer have access to the 4.3 ROM files and I cannot find a backup of the stock recovery img anywhere. I noticed there was a change log a few pages back stating added stock recovery files but when I load the toolkit for my device I noted the following line...

"No insecure boot, stock boot or stock recovery images will be downloaded, all functions that require these images are being disabled"

I do not know what this means and I do not see any menu option to flash the stock recovery, which is needed to get the 4.4.1 ATT rom via OTA.

Any help is appreciated I cannot find this file anywhere. OR is there a way to rename the stock recovery restore that is on the phone that is renamed to flash the custom recovery? I do not know which files these are or what they are named.

Hi All,

A friend gave a I317 to me purely stock in 4.4.2.

I'm just wondering if this toolkit is still working with version 4.4.2? I don't see anything in that changelog V5 that mentions 4.4.2.

I don't like CF-AUTOroot because I need TWRP installed permanently then root.

Restoring .bak not working

Thanks for creating this Toolkit.

I did a backup of all my apps and user data.

After I switched ROMs, I tried to restore these apps from the .bak file I created. However, after I turn on my screen and verify/start the RESTORE function, it completes but none of my backed up apps appear to be on my phone.

In Dev options : I have USB debugging checked... disabled "verify apps via USB"

I choose option 10: Restore apps from a Backup File.

Select my file.bak -> file found

Unlock device -> Restore my data

Restore starting... -> Restore ended after about 2 seconds

None of my apps appear.

Any help would be appreciated. Otherwise I'd have to restore my NANDROID backup and Titanium back up before re-applying the ROM.

Thanks!

You've asked once, now again - we're all waiting for an official response. Let's not keep asking the same question over and over.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] mskip:
As the 4.1.2 is an OTA I dont have the boot image available to check or root so I cant add it to the Toolkit. If someone who has the OTA and a custom recovery can make a NAND backup and send me the boot.img file then I can check it but as 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 and EXTREMELY close in terms of build I would say that the 4.1.1 model option (21) should work perfectly fine with 4.1.2. At the very worst it would cause a boot loop which you can easily recover from by flashing the 4.1.1 stock image in the downloads section.

If someone can confirm what I have just said then I will add 4.1.2 to the Toolkit model selection list.

Anyone with a build that isnt listed in the Toolkit can easily root/busybox using the recovery root options in the root/unroot section. In that case you can select ANY build in your models section when starting the Toolkit.

If you attach it or send it then its easy enough to open the zip and check if the boot image has a patch. If there is no boot patch then the boot image will be exactly the same as the previous build.
