But I still have my IMEI. I just flashed CM10.1 and now my phone number is gone and I can't get data. I can still text and make phone calls. When I go to about phone - status my MIN says unknown and so does the ICCID. I read that flashing the latest modem would fix it but it dident for me. Any suggestions?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NeoMagus:
If it was the official 12-18 you flashed, data is broken on it. Discussion is here Mastamoon posted an unofficial build with working data you could try flashing or dirty flash back to 12-17 theres a couple ppl with this issue in there

I had the same issue, been trying to fix all day.

I couldn't get the IMEI/ERI tool working on my rom (I think the radio wasn't compatible) and I had to roll back to a older version, but after using *2767*3855# my phone reset and it is fully functional.

How did the VZW rep that I spoke to for over an hour not know about this?!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nufan:
Did you tell the rep that you rooted and flashed a custom ROM on your phone? And even if you did, I doubt a rep would tell you to flash something with ODIN to go back to a previous version.

I downloaded Phone Info and switched it back to LTE but it keeps on saying 3G. I'm on Rogers.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] AlonB.:
Are you in a lte area?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] GetPatriotized:
Yes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] nellycruzz:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] AlonB.:
Phone info basically replaces the process of using *#2263#. I'd suggest uninstalling it, and manually:

1. In dialer, *#2263#

2. LTE band preference, LTE all

3. Menu key, end

4. Again in dialer, *#2263#

5. Select automatic

6. Menu key, end

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] stricklerjosh:
So I am thinking of flashing an aosp rom and I am down to cm10 or aokp. Have a few questions since I am back new to rooting and flashing:

-which is more stable? I need a reliable camera and I saw there were bugs with the camera in some versions. I want a daily driver, not a nightly with bugs.

-features and themes. I know cm10 has tons of themes in the market, is aokp the same?

-gapps : do I flash the same gapps file for both of them?

-any other bugs or advantages of one over the other?

Thanks in advance
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
Aokp has more features than CM10 as its just bare boned aosp. AOKP ride on cm source, so any bug in CM will be present in AOKP. Flash the same gapps....the last is preference. Both are stable, unless you flash cm10.1, which has bugs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tlrsax54:
task650 actually pointed out AOKP is based off Google source, not CM....minor clarification :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] billard412:
And 10.1 is actually pretty stable. Camera now works and I am using it as a daily driver now. Aokp would use an older gapps than cm10.1 as it is not built off of 4.2 yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GiantJay:
I am running CM10 stable release from November and I haven't had one issue. I have the the 4.2 apps installed and I love them photosphere and the keyboard are awesome. Only one single problem if you install the 4.2 apps make sure your camera is focused all the way before taking a photo or you have to reboot your phone to use the camera app again because it locks the camera app. But who would want an out of focus picture anyway. Its funny it actually helps me take better photos. Other than that not a single problem with the ROM or apps. I have the ThyrusHolo Black theme from the Play Store installed and it looks great if you like black and holo. I very little about AOKP but I know I don't want to leave CM10 at all. But I suggest running each one for a week top get a good Ferrell for each and see which one you like better.

I have been trying to develop my own roms for awhile now, but every time I flash what I've been working on, I hard brick (this is my 3rd replacement; dsixda's kitchen is also an old tool). I just want to know if I can work alongside other devs via whatever method of communication so I can learn some stuff. Even if it's a tiny project, I just want to learn. Sorry if I'm not suppose to ask or anything... Just don't know where else to look.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] evil1art:
His kitchen has been updated to work with the s3 so that should not be the issue.

Do you have any experience decompiling apks? And what questions do you have
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DinoSoup:
I have decompiled apks. In fact, I have a few low grade apps on Google play.The issue I've been having is just porting, even with the latest version of dsixdas kitchen. But I want to do other stuff, like build a unique ROM.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] evil1art:
I would start with a basic tw rom to start
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] The_F_Word:
I to been plaing on developing roms. As an upcoming software engineer I wanted to actually try to start from scratch lol. Hopefully school teaches me more about dev'ing. But as for me I dont have any experience in all that yet :-/ anything specific we have to learn?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DinoSoup:
That was awesome. I have a project in mind. Maybe I could get some people together and we try it out? PM me if your interested...
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ebreo:
Hi i have an idea for better battery durability and reduce the heat emitted.i want to change the processor's clock speed.

I think that 1-1.2 ghz is enough for good performance but i don't have rooted my phone yet so could anyone try to change the clock speed and wrote what about the battery drain and heat emitted by cpu?

Thanks!
[LG Optimus 4X HD] SimonTS:
I'm so glad that you had that idea, because nobody else has EVER thought about doing that :rolleyes:

How about you search the forum and look at one of the many, many threads where this sort of thing is discussed instead of asking us to write the same thing over and over again :banghead:

[LG Optimus 4X HD] ebreo:
ok thanks @danie.wro i have read whole topic and i guess does it this app useful?

i want use all 4 cores but clocking down theirs cores to 1gzh or 1.2ghz in term of battery saving and heat will be change anything for sure?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ebreo:
another question is regular that overnight my phone lost about 15-20% of battery doing nothing?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Arne_B:
Try to use CPU-Tuner. I use that and it's very useful.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ebreo:
thanks you too, but this app is for rooted phone instead gearbox runs on no rooted phone too ;) i tried quadrant benchmark and i had lower score, let we see if this change something in term of battery drain and heat emitted xD
[LG Optimus 4X HD] ebreo:
ok i have tried and i have positive feelings the battery withstand more time about 15-20% with clock speed set on 1ghz and 4 cores, and power saver with 1 core on 1ghz, but the heat emitted by battery hasn't changed much...

I have a question does NFC take a lot of power?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Arne_B:
I'm guessing by the facts that it has a lower signal range than Bluetooth it uses less power than Bluetooth but still is a considerably big battery consumer.

[HTC Droid DNA] jonah1234:
Did you install the framework-res.apk and systemui.apk first?

Sent from my Team 420 themed HTC Droid DNA
[HTC Droid DNA] gitku:
It worked it just won't recompile in that same build folder ... You have to replace the individual pieces ..

Unzip the apk and decompile it so you have two folders ..

If you decompile and edit XML then just go into the decompiled folder edit what you need then recompile .. once you have done that just replace the resources.asrc from inside the build folder of the decompiled apk and move it inside the unzipped folder and rezip it/ name it apk instead of zip and your changes will be in there

Same goes for images ... Decompile and make whatever changes then recompile and replace only the images inside the drawable xxdpi folder and rezip/rename

If this is hard to follow ... Sorry I'm typing all from memory on my phone at work ...
[HTC Droid DNA] santacruzdz:
I dont really understand how can I decompile an unzipped apk?? I usually use apk manager which has apktool, could you please provide me a clear step by step procedure, that would be helpful, thank you!!
[HTC Droid DNA] gitku:
You'll have 2 folders ... Decompile using apk tool and just overlook the errors ... Also unzip the original apk (for example you would have a folder named "SystemUI" [this is the decompiled folder] and another named "SystemUI.apk_files" [using Linux this is what the extracted or unzipped folder would be named] the difference is that the unzipped folder isn't decoded so you can't edit XML and editing the .9.PNG images is more of a pain .. then edit inside the decompiled and drag your changes over to the unzipped one and rezip/rename it. Apktool will not rebuild entirely correctly so you have to do it this way .. its the only way I have been successful anyways. If this isn't clear enough I'll throw you some screen shots in a few hours.
[HTC Droid DNA] santacruzdz:
Yes I would definitely lie some screenshots please! My problem is that apktool doesn't "install" the com.htc.ressources.apk so it won't decompile it! I get a empty folder..

I have another question, which verion of apktool are you using?
[HTC Droid DNA] fernando sor:
To install resources.

Apktool if com.htc.resources.apk

Same for framework-res.apk
[HTC Droid DNA] santacruzdz:
Yes I installed framework-res and framework-htc.apk and SystemUI.apk...but impossible to install com.htc.resources.apk! please help!
[HTC Droid DNA] nitsuj17:
those errors are common when installing the frameworks...what does the entire error say? usually it has all the flag stuff but still says installed afterwards
[HTC Droid DNA] gitku:
I misunderstood ... Are you using Windows or Linux? If Linux I'll send you the version of apk tool I got half working .. I've heard apkmulti tool works on windows but it didn't for me
[HTC Droid DNA] santacruzdz:
I use windows, apktool works fine with all other apk's..only com.htc.resources.apk...
[HTC Droid DNA] fernando sor:
Look at the very bottom line . It did install. Config flag errors have been present since at least sense 3.5.

Look in users\Santa_ cruzdz\apktool

You will see a 2.apk in there. That's com.HTC.resources file
[HTC Droid DNA] fernando sor:
Yeah I thought it was possible to decompile because we can decompile jb HTC.resources on the evo lte but it looks like the xxdpi dimens can't be decompiled until aapt is updated

---------- Post added at 12:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:38 PM ----------

You can hex it though. That's an alternative
[HTC Droid DNA] santacruzdz:
Well thank you for your help anyway..I guess I have to wait and hope that it comes soon..I don't think I can use the hex..a little too complicated for me!
[HTC Droid DNA] fernando sor:
it is confusing the first time you use a hex editer but the trade off is that there is no decompiling/recompiling.

all cpu/logic unit processors, process computer instructions in binary which is a base two number system. So all high level languages (java,c++, etc) use a compiler to translate the instructions into binary.

when i say hex thats slang for using a hexadecimal program to modify the code. hexadecimal is a base 16 number system. 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,a,b,c,d,e,f. the cool thing with base 16 is you can express large numbers in other systems with just two digits. in decimal ff=255. in binary ff= 11111111.

im sure you have seen in xml rgb color code. r=red, b=blue, g=green. add alpha to that and you have an 8 digit color code. example ff000000 is black. the first two digits here being ff. this applies the transparency. ff has 0 transparency. the next six digits 000000 have zero light value so ff000000 is black. Take away the ff and add 00 and 00000000 is completely transparent.

so if you were to take your resources.arsc and place it in hxd, a free hex editing program you could easily find all color codes that are stored in res /values/colors.

the very important thing to remember is in hxd the code is displayed backwards. so stock android green ff00ff00 would read 00ff00ff.

i would decompile 4.1 sense 4+ com.htc.resources from the evo lte or one x and use that as a guide. the values/color xml will be identical to the dnas. then search for those color values.

easy? no. but none of this stuff is easy. jump in.
[HTC Droid DNA] santacruzdz:
Wow..this is not easy! but as you say..I have nothing to loose, the difficult part for I think will be to find the color values in the hex programi already played with colors and I know some color codes but not in hex..so think you for your support..and I will jump in;) thousands thanks that you took time to answer my questions.

[HTC Droid DNA] santacruzdz:
Hi again,

I tried to decomile the one x resources.apk and I get the same errors when decompiling with the "xhdpi", is it normal?? I basically have the same issues with the dna resources, Im I missing something?
[HTC Droid DNA] fernando sor:
Not sure. The evo lte 4.1 resources we have been able to decompile.
[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
Let me preface this post by saying that I just purchased my DNA on Saturday and am really liking it so far. So I do own the phone and am not trying to start any kind of war. I'm starting this thread with the sole intention of making sure I made the right decision and to get some discussion going about it.

I sold my GS3 to get the DNA and I had a Razr Maxx before the GS3. Other than those two, I have had all HTC phones. The Incredible, Thunderbolt, Rezound and now DNA. I loved the Incredible, absolutely hated the Thunderbolt and just thought the Rezound was so-so. The Rezound killed me how much lag it had for great specs at the time. And the dev community was fairly small and short lived.

Does anyone think that the DNA is going to follow the Rezound's footsteps? Especially now hearing rumors of the M7, is this thing going to have a small dev community and then just fade away?

Just wanted some opinions, thanks!
[HTC Droid DNA] TXI Kaze:
Fairly small and short lived? There is still active development in the Rezound. The only reason it didn't have a lot was mainly due to the flame wars. Everyone got chewed out over there. The DNA just dropped and it is going to take some time but everything will come together. Virus is working on a ROM, I think the Viper team is as well and we will have s-off soon. Just be patient :cool:

EDIT: Just checked the Rez forum. At least five ROMs from this month and I barely checked. You also have to keep in mind that this phone dropped at an awkward time. People are rushing around for the holidays and a lot of devs are either tied up in family affairs or they are students who are busting it to get through finals lol
[HTC Droid DNA] WizeGuyDezignz:
My apologies, I guess I went a little overboard with my statement. It's probably because I didn't have my Rezound very long and I didn't keep up on the development page here on XDA. My bad.

That is good to hear that those devs are working on ROM's! I will definitely keep my eye out.

Thanks!
[HTC Droid DNA] TXI Kaze:
I figured. I wasn't trying to be like "EY YOU WRONG!" Just wanted to inform lol. Like I said, be patient and wait for the holiday season to die down :D
[HTC Droid DNA] BBEgo:
I'm just glad to see Verizon finally getting behind an HTC phone. In my local store, the DNA has a huge chunk of real estate on the wall.

The commercials are crazy... Looks like a trailer for a new Star Wars film. But whatever. I hope it puts HTC back on the map.

[HTC One X] Slaytanic:
Hi,

I have a rooted One X on which I was running Team Venom viperX rom and few days ago I recovered the stock nand backup (original ICS rom) and then updated my HOX with the JB 4.1 OTA that was released few time ago... now, when I connect the phone to my mac, it is not seen anymore as a disk and it doesn't ask me if I wan to simply charge or mount as a disk... on windows I noticed that it doesn't ask too, but is used as a disk by default (allowing me to see sdcard content both on windows and on the phone with a file manager, which I find very strange..)...

Any idea about how to re-enable the feature that asked me to mount or not to mount the phone as a disk? It only shows me a disc with a link to HTC Sync download page and even after installing it on my MAC, nothing changed.

Any suggestion would be really appreciated!
[HTC One X] nitrous²:
Mass storage mode isn't available on jb sense roms yet.
[HTC One X] Slaytanic:
Tech support said it should be automatically detected by the PC, but this is not true at least on OSX platforms:

Thank you for contacting HTC.

With regards to your inquiry, kindly be informed that on android 4.1 the option to
choose what kind of connection you want between your PC and the phone has been
removed. This software support "Plug and Play" connection witch allows all those
options without being necessary to choose an option from phone's screen.

If you have any other inquiries, don’t hesitate to contact us again.

This is my reply:

Hi, I understand that the option has been removed, but it is not true that it
works automatically, expecially on OSX platforms (like my MacBook pro).
So, you removed a useful feature for people like me that used to connect their
phones to a Mac laptop and this is not correct. I'd like to be able to choose
if I want to mount the storage or not when I connect the phone to my MacBook Pro.

They should definitely re-introduce the option to choose to mount or not to mount the storage as an external disk.
[HTC One X] Slaytanic:
HTC:

If your connection is not done after update i suggest you to install on your PC
"HTC Sync manager" and "Android file Transfer (AFT)". when you done you
should be able to connect your phone to PC.

My reply:

Thank you for the quick reply. I'll try android file transfer, but this is not the
correct way of accomplishing this task. Before the upgrade I could mount
the phone as a disk, and this was one of the features that made me choose
this phone comparing to other ones, so it is not correct to remove such a
feature with a software upgrade. Even if HTC Sync Manager + Android File
Transfer solve this issue, I should install them on every platform on which I
connect the phone, such as my work laptop, and I'm simply not allowed to
install additional software. Is there any plan to re-introduce the possibility to
choose to mount or not to mount the storage as a disk?

HTC:

I am just give you the options for now, I am sure that our engineers will
come with an update for this connection.
