[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kouger1:
Hi all

I hope that I am in the right place.

I currently have a MyTouch phone but was in China last week and saw these Galaxy S3 knockoffs and figured I would buy one.

I am now back in the States and the Galaxy works quite well but there are a few things I cannot get to work and was hoping someone could help.

Firstly the data connection from my service provider seems quite slow compared to the MyTouch.

Secondly the GPS does not seem to work. I have tried a few different combinations but no luck. I have enabled and disabled the Google location in the settings to no avail. I have left the phone on for more than 15 minutes trying to get a GPS signal but still no luck.

I know that the phone is a knockoff and did not expect much but it sure does work faster than the MyTouch – apart from the GPS and data.

So my question is –

Is there a way to get it to work? Would it be possible to reload the software on the phone with one from an original Galaxy? I am not sure of the terminology but does that mean I would need to flash the phone or root the phone – if this is the case, how easy is it to do and would it brick my phone?

Where would I get the firmware from to do so?

Any (detailed) help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

As far as i know these SGS3 knockoffs or clones do not have the same hardware as the SGS3 so you can't use custom SGS3 roms.

[HTC One S] cat2115:
Just need a set of OK it's correct. I'm returning HTC One S back since it always had keyboard problem, Letter E. S, & Z never seem to be working. If I type E, it enter R or W. Type S, it enter A or D, and finally Type Z, it switch to CAP. If I do landscape, E and S work but Z become a "comma" and back-space become "enter"

Since I'm rooted and need to be unrooted. Is this what I should do.

1. flash stock recovery "ville_recovery_signed.img"

2. fastboot oem lock

3. Run RUU "RUU_Ville_U_TMOUS_1.84.531.2_R2_Radio_0.16.31501S.16_2". link from Sneakyghost's DropBox

Do I need to do "Official USA T-Mobile Nandroid" before doing the first step above? Or, i can skip the Official USA T-Mobile Nandroid and just do the step above.

Thanks for the help
[HTC One S] AKToronto:
You dont need to flash the nandroid b/c the RUU will overwrite everything anyways. However, if you are having trouble flashing the RUU, you could try the nandroid as an alternative. but you would have to unlock your bootloader again, flash the stock nandroid and then relock.

Also, if your doing an RUU, you will have to flash an RUU with an hboot greater or equal to the one currently on your phone. If your phone did an OTA update (ie over the air update), you may need to get a newer RUU. Newer ones for TMobil do exist. But try the one you mention first, and go from there.
[HTC One S] cat2115:
Thanks AKToronto: I never did an OTA update and RUU listed above is what i current had.

Hi there,

I have been stumbling across some awesome CM10 themes and it's something I'd like to have although they are only for CM9 and CM10. I'm currently running rooted stock nexus 4, whats the benefits of having a rom like CM10 - does CM10 run 4.2.1? which is what im currently using?

Whats are the positives and negatives to switching?

If i switch, can I convert BACK to stock?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
1. Use the search feature. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35521539

2. CM10 = Android 4.1.X....... does not support Android 4.2.X and does not support N4 (mako)

3. first link. no negatives. its like reformatting your computer. If you go to Windows 8 and don't like it, go back to Windows 7.. what are the negatives? none. just reinstall apps... use titanium backup to backup/restore apps (buy pro version)

4. Yes you can revert back to stock. Nothing is permanent on android.

......... next time, do some research before just straight up asking these questions as they are already answered.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phermey:
a big positive with AOKP is the ability to add in and customize the on screen nav bar buttons. i came from a gs2. so setting this phone to have the same layout as my gs2 capacitive buttons is a real winner. you can also rearrange the order of and how many toggles there are in the quick settings drop down. there is a whole list of features that you get and the devving has only just begun.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
CM10.1 (Jellybro) already has Navigation Bar changes. It's better off getting used to those three buttons IMO, menu is useless for me. I prefer having it as a touch button somewhere on the app. If not then I'll use the bottom right one.

You can arrange toggles on quick settings drop down as well on CM10.1.

CM10.1 is a ongoing project and is developing really fast without dirty hacks that AOKP does. Very clean code.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phermey:
i got tired of trying to figure out how to get into settings. and even worse... nova settings. so used to it being the menu key that i had to get it back.

tried out cm. a week ago. it was behind aokp in features so i went back to aokp. couldnt speak for what it has so i gave examples of what i know.

clean code or not. aokp has always suited my needs better than cm. but thats just me.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Pull down notifications -> Tiles -> Settings. Guess I got accustomed to it on my Galaxy Nexus where there wasn't a tile button. It was just pull down notifications -> settings. It takes some time getting used to it, but it's pretty good imo. But that's the best part about android you can do it the way you like it, traditionally or the new way :)

I used to like AOKP but felt it was too bloated with unnecessary crap like AOKP Wallpapers (Swagpapers), unnecessary unicorn stuff etc. I prefer CM as its cleaner code and more optimal whereas AOKP does things in 'hackish' code and just like what the name implies, it's kanged from CM sources anyway.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phermey:
lol. that damn pink unicorn is so old. the day it was released it got old, and every time someone tries to be cute by adding another wallpaper... i think to myself WHY!!!

one thing i loved about sticking cm on my nexus was that bad a$$ boot animation. once the first milestone get released i will definitely be checking cm out again. you are also 100% correct on the code thing. and i never thought of the meaning of kang. <--- good point.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
haha yeah i was annoyed of keep having to remove AOKPClock, SwagPapers, Swag Toggle like wth... unnecessary line of code. i do love the amount of customization in there though. i used xylon on my galaxy nexus before i got my N4 (it started coming to rise at 4.2.X) its pretty customizable as well, very feature rich.

does AOKP have navigation height / width adjustments in the ROM already? i miss that feature, CM has everything I want as of right now. only missing nav height changes. can't wait for PGM for N4 though http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=bZEodCnYv58#t=14s is a brief video of what it is. i love it because i dont have to use the buttons :D
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phermey:
they also just stuck in some arrow keys when the keyboard is active.

will check out that video. saw the thread in themes and had no clue what it was.

edit. that is pretty cool. does that also mean the phone never sleeps? and i dunno how you managed to get that video to load at 14s. but you the man for doing it. i see the #t=14s. learn something new every day.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Ah I don't need arrows, I actually prefer them to be normal size. AOKP probably has this feature already, CM has a feature in which if you are on a entry field (typing) you can use volume keys.. up and down to move left and right of your words if you choose to (can be disabled).

the phone does sleep, it's built into a kernel module and uses very minimal battery life. I've used it since I saw it on the GN apps forum. if you use light flow, it probably uses the same amount of battery (or less). lightflow barely interferes with the phone's battery life.

oh that's easy.. just go to any youtube video and right click the video and click "Copy current url at current time" I figured I would save you some time and get to the point :)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phermey:
i dont use light flow. aokp has something similar baked in.

that pgm app keeps looking better and better. i will be using it. thanks

I'm asking this because HBO Nordic which recently became available in Scandinavia won't allow me to use my rooted ASUS TF101 for streaming. The HBO Nordic app says "Service is not available on this device because it has been modified."

1. Revoke one or more permissions

2. Modify build.prop

I really hope someone can help or enlighten me a bit. Permissions list can be seen here:

Thanks very much for pointing me to that thread. Got my rooted TF101 up and running with HBO Nordic - finally!

I received an answer from them, effectively ignoring everything about the app not working on rooted devices by default. They would be happy to help me cancel my subscription, though. So I did just that. Curiously, my login information is still valid but I'm expecting that to change any day now.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jinxxed:
They attempt to gain root access and you either let them or you don't.

Some apps don't request it and don't gain it. There is a solution for it but it involves you not caring at all what happens to your phone.

sh chmod -r 0777 * will remove the need for root in it's entirety but render the phone as useless as running windows 95 on the internet.

Deep battery forces your phone into deep sleep mode. In the free version there are different modes based on how often you want it to turn on data for a 1 minute period. I've only used it for a couple of days and results seem very good thus far. I am on Franco R15 and Dec 17 build of aokp roman

APP: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...tm_medium=organic&utm_term=deep+sleep+battery

I downloaded this app at night. So the first part of the graph is daily use and the second part of the graph is night time. So far it seems to be working very well I am on the balanced profile of the application. Which is set to leave deep sleep every hour for one minute

I have found out that the rom installed in my htc desire is for the htc desire hd. I could not use the unrevoked3 since it is detecting my htc desire as an htc desire hd which is not supported as it says on the unrevoked3.

What can i do to get this ROM installed on my htc desire to able to root it to an htc desire ROM?

What i did:

installed the unrevoked3 drivers.

Run the reflash_package.exe but it detects my phone as "Ace" or the htc desire HD which is not supported.

Tried revolution and it also detects my phone as an "Ace" which also is not supported.
