[Galaxy Note II Accessories] 300winmag:
Well I'm SOL. Just read that the phone has gold pins on the back cover that touch the mat to charge the battery. I have a Defender case so that ain't gonna work.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Brad.S.:
No no... that is wrong.

The gold pins are used to touch a receiver on the inside of the battery door to accept the charge.

See this video for example:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwf5FNU_hT0

I'm curious as to whether or not it would work with a case such as the Otterbox. Search in the forum is down..
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] 300winmag:
Hmmm so we would have to mod our defender cases if we wanted to do this. Good thread about it in the S3 accessories section.
[Kindle Fire Accessories] S2005x:
So we bought our daughter a Kindle Fire for Christmas so that my wife and I could have our phones back.

Both of our phones are in otter boxes.

I'm terrified she will throw this 7" tablet on the floor at one point, and I don't want this investment shattered.

What are some of the best defensive cases out there?

I know otter box makes one for the Kindle Fire, but I refuse to spend $80 on a case for a tablet I only paid $100 for (got it used).

i really like this case
[Kindle Fire Accessories] S2005x:
That case is very good looking, but doesn't look very protective...
[Kindle Fire Accessories] Ichigo:
I have a sedio active case. It's very protective, as long as you have the active stand case. It should survive a toss to the ground.

Is there a gumdrop case for the Fire? They're rather durable and protective.

Hey guys, I am at the end of my rope here, so maybe you can help me out.

I have been dealing with the Media service bug that drains battery super fast for the last few days on my wifes rooted SGS3, and I have been jumping between roms, deleting SD files, searching for corrupt apps/media all to no avail. Tonight, in an effort to fix this issue, I flashed the most recent CM10 nightly as I heard it had a fix for this issue. I have no idea if that is true, because when I got to the setup screen after flashing, I kept getting an error that said that setup crashed and could not run. I had to boot back in to recovery, flash again, only to find the same error.

I then attempted to flash clean rom, except now I see that her phone is always roaming where my Note2 right next to it is on 4G. I flashed an older CM10 nightly for her, and the same issue popped up where it is only roaming.

Did the failed CM10 flash screw something up? How can I get her off roaming and back on 3/4G? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
Good advice, but I'm pretty sure he would need to repair his imie before the code

If I helped you in some way.... pass on the favor and help the next person!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
OK, so I was able to get signal back (shows 4/3G), however she is unable to actually text or call from her number. She can use google voice though, so I am guessing it is something specifically with her number. Maybe the IMEI thing you mentioned. Assuming she has her signal back, would dialing that set of numbers reactivate her, or would I still have to do the ODIN steps?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
It there is data then that dialer code should fix the calling, but you need to be in ics to do it

If I helped you in some way.... pass on the favor and help the next person!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
Yeah, I am pretty sure she has data. She is not at home, and when she left a bit ago we thought all was well (since she had the 4G indicator whereas before it said roaming) but she just used GVoice to text me to say that she cannot call or text using her VZW credentials. When you say that she needs to be in ICS, would any ICS rom do? She is in the newest version of Cleanrom right now, so I will have to flash something else I think. As for using ODIN, that is kinda out of the question because we are on vacation and the internet here sucks. It would take 2 weeks to download the stock VZW image, but if that is the only option then I guess that is how i goes. Thank you in advance for all your help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
I know it didn't work on some custom. I do know it works on route 66, but I've got a solution. Use mobile Odin and download the ROM straight to the phone.

If I helped you in some way.... pass on the favor and help the next person!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
Im actually downloading a torrent of the stock image for regular desktop ODIN and it is moving fairly quickly. That being said, using a custom rom would be easier (wouldnt I not have to use ODIN at all, just flash it like a normal rom?). If that is the case, can I download your route 66 rom, boot into recovery, wipe, flash then use the dialer code?

EDIT: Whoops, I misunderstood your previous post. I think we are talking about the same thing. I am torrenting the route 66.tar file right now. You are suggesting that I use VZW 4G on her phone to dl the tar file then flash with mobile ODIN? I have never used mobile ODIN to my knowledge so I am not sure how to go about that.

EDIT 2: I just checked out mobile ODIN on the market, and that seems easy enough. So I just finish this .tar dl, put it on her SD, load the app and follow its directions to flash it. Once that is flashed, reboot and dial that code. Then Flash whatever rom I want (say, back to cleanrom). Is that about right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
That's pretty much it, with mobile Odin you'll just click open file. It will put the different parts (kernel, recovery,etc) in the correct section. Then you click flash, support easy and faster then normal Odin. Also if you make a backup before doing this you can just restore your backup after fixing the network problem.

If I helped you in some way.... pass on the favor and help the next person!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
You are awesome! I am sure you factored this in to your suggestion, but if I backup her current rom, then ODIN, then restore, it will not undo what I did with ODIN, correct? Again, I am pretty sure it wont, but I was also pretty sure I knew what I was doing when I flashed CM last night and look how that turned out. Thanks again!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stk162:
Same problem!!!

Can someone give me a very simplified rundown to fix this problem. I flashed the CM10.1 nightly and lost service as well. I noticed someone posted the solution in the comments but i don't understand all that funky talk. PLEASE HELP
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
It shouldn't undo what you're doing now

If I helped you in some way.... pass on the favor and help the next person!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
Haha, this is why CM warns us not to flash the nightlies unless we know what we are doing, which you and I did not I guess.

Basically, to get your cell signal back you need to flash back to a different firmware version. You do this through a program called ODIN which is a desktop program for Windows or a paid app in Android. I am going the paid app route mostly because it is a bit easier, but the desktop version is free.

I have not tested the solution yet, but I have read on other posts that it works. If you do the app route, you select the firmware file with the app, run the process (it should be self-explanatory in the app), then once the new firmware is on, you dial a special verizon code to get your signal stuff fixed. Below are the files you need.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1762204 (this is the firmware file that you will flash using ODIN)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.mobileodin.pro&hl=en (this is the mobile ODIN app)

Dial *2767*3855# once you have the firmware on to in theory fix the signal issue

After that, you can reflash your rom, but do not flash the CM nightly again!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
OK, so a bit of a hiccup. I ran ODIN with the .tar file you suggested, and after going through the expected flashing and what not, the screen went black with my LED notification light blinking blue. I pulled the battery after about 10 minutes of this, booted into recovery then rebooted and it did the same thing. Ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
To clarify, it takes me to a menu called "Android System Recovery" with the following options:

reboot system now (takes me to the black screen)

apply update from external storage

wipe data/factory reset

wipe cache

apply update from cache

Any idea what I should be doing or what I did wrong?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
That's stock recovery. Not sure why it's not booting correctly. I would say just use desktop Odin and re flash

If I helped you in some way.... pass on the favor and help the next person!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
Did you get this fixed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
Its not looking good... I am in desktop ODIN and it is running, but already there was a failure in the first block, and the log says "cant open serial COM port"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
Make sure you have the drivers installed and have rebooted computer. Also did you verify the md5 of your download
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
I did not reboot after the driver install, so I will do that. As for the MD5, what is that and how do I verify? You are talking about the firmware download, right?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
Also but sure where you got your files but section 5. Here is the best

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
I dont want to speak too soon, but I am re-running it with the same files after I reinstalled and rebooted for the samsung drivers and so far it has not failed. Fingers crossed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
Alright, the ODIN process was successful, and now it is at the Verizon 4G LTE splash screen with the circles pulsating. When it failed last time, it came here too, but then it just bootloops from here. I am watching for it to finish loading, but I dont have high expectations. If it bootloops, what next?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
If it boot loops go back into recovery and factory reset, and but be patient it takes a while for first boot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
How long is a while? I have given it about 10 minutes. Should I factory reset then?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
I would that is a little long
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
Alright, formatting now and rebooting. I am going to wait on the LTE splash for a few and see how we do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
Then, walk a way for a while while is booting. That way it doesn't seem to take a long
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
Well it booted into the setup screen, and it showed the 4G indicator but with no bars of service. After about 2 minutes, while I was about to make the reprovision call, a red message popped up saying that it was shutting down to reformat. It just booted back into settings again. Not sure what happened.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
Maybe I am dumber than I think I am... That number that you enter, does it cause the phone to factory reset? I assumed it would be like making a phone call... Maybe it is doing what it is supposed to. Am I right? Should hitting that final pound force a reset?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
Yes the phone resets.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mindstar1:
Well it looks like you are officially my Christmas/Holiday miracle. I now have it up and running WITH signal. She can make calls/send texts again and all is right with the world. I am about to restore the rom she has before so that she gets google now and what not, but I cannot thank you enough. You are awesome, and you really saved my/our asses!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kintwofan:
Glad I could help just a tip before you restore. Make a backup of this so you can always just restore back.

Good day

I just registered to this forum and hope someone can help me. I have been battling with this for several days now :eek:

I have a 9.7" Android 4.0.4 T05 tablet with Kernel version 3.0.8+. I have a keyboard cover which uses a mini usb port. The keyboard works when tested on another tablet with same specs yet it will not work on mine. The tablet can be accessed with the computer via the mini usb port which shows me that the usb port should be working. I have downloaded the app "USB Host Controller" (not sure if this means anything or whether it is accurate) which under the info section reads:

USB Host Controller

Version number: 0.44

S3C USB Host driver NOT found!

Root hub present, USB Host mode active!

What am I missing? Why will this keyboard not work? Any help will be highly appreciated!

Sorry if I am duplicating an existing thread but I am still new here and could not find a thread which matched my problem.

Thank you

Flashed Liquid Nitro from CM 10.0.0....wiped cache, wiped devick.....phone stuck on "rethink possible" how do i get into recovery?

...and won't be doing that again. WTF? at least i know how to boot into recovery from my phone.
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
When you switch from CM9 (ICS) to CM10 you should do a full wipe. Really, when you flash any ROM you should do a full wipe; but especially if you're jumping from JB to ICS or vice versa. And I'm assuming you got back into recovery, but if not: turn phone off. Hold volume down + power until the factory reset screen comes on. Press power button twice and instead of performing a factory reset, you should be taken into CWM recovery.
[LG Nitro HD] mgofpickens:
Thank YOU!

i would like to try this out...so i do a complete wipe? and i didn't realize liquid nitro was ics. i really like the funtion of jb, but the battery sucks real bad. i read through, what i thought was detailed. anyway, when i make a complete change in the rom, i need to do a wipe?
[LG Nitro HD] mgofpickens:
wait...

a rom is replacing the /system partition, right? so why would i need to wipe? i went from cm 9 to cm 10 quite easily. i really don't understand. i mean, i thought i did. partition: system, data, recovery, boot. right?
[LG Nitro HD] lordcheeto03:
Yes, ROM replaces /system, but it doesn't format before the install. Kinda like if you install a version of Linux on top of a different version without formatting you'll still have some junk floating around from the previous install. I use TWRP and before each new flash I wipe /system, /data, and /cache.... dalvik, from what I've noticed seems to not really be needed to wipe: every time I tried it it tells me it doesn't exist. I think in CWM there's an option to do full wipe, not sure; but I'd use that if it is.

Liquid Nitro is stock/rooted/debloated ICS with a few other goodies thrown in, then you have CM9 (and it's variants) which are ICS based. As far as jellybean goes, the P93x only has CM10 and it's numerous variants. You can, without too much hassle, perform a dirty flash over CM10 and it's variants, but you're just asking for bootloops and whatnot trying a dirty flash from ICS to JB based. Again, I'm not advocating to dirty flash unless you're just updating from a previous build of the same ROM, but it's less likely to cause problems when you at least stay within the same android version.
[LG Nitro HD] drumist:
It does format actually. Really the only reason to format system manually is if you want to prevent it from backing up and restoring your Gapps. Doesn't hurt anything though.

Use fastboot to flash a new recovery, then flash new rom from within recovery. If you can install a rom to sd or none exists you may need to side load it or use external sd with an otg cable.

If you can get the proper boot.img and system.img you can just flash those via fastboot as well to get a working os, if the dev of rom makes it use it this way, or make your own or if you have a nandroid in yaffs2 format you can use those images, .win, tar etc won't work
