[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MnRAZB:
I was rooted, i unrooted and verified with the terminal emulator and entering "SU" to ensure that. i attempted to update to 4.1.1 from 4.0.4 but when i do so, it boots into TWRP recovery. I attempted to enter download mode, only to have it appear and before i can touch the volume up bottom if fades away. Any Help would be appreciated.

Yes, i am a noob, thats fine with. Everyone was at one point. so help a brother out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
How were you updating to 4.1.1? Through a stock/stock based rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ChaseBroyles:
Also, you have to have stock recovery (not TWRP) for updates to go through. If you flash http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1904099 in TWRP it will restore you to the latest unrooted update and will give you stock recovery.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MnRAZB:
I know that, but i cam currently not rooted but still have TWRP Recovery. So do i need to reroot to flash the link you posted?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ChaseBroyles:
No, just flash it in TWRP.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MnRAZB:
I got my stock recovery back but still my download mode will not stay up, it appears and disappears before i can even access it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MnRAZB:
Also when i attempt to update, it tells me there are no updates but settings shows me at 4.0.4.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kesis:
So I was at a party earlier and a bunch of people were sitting around playing this game. I went to download it and found it was not compatible with my device. A friend with a crappier phone running Gingerbread had it (I was running ICS ICySnap, more specifically) so I wiped and restored to a GB ROM I had. Still incompatible. I did a bit of looking around and never really was able to find any information on system requirements for the app.

But after I got home and looked online I found this website: http://mobile.brothersoft.com/fun-run---multiplayer-race-861640.html and our device (both the Optimus One and the Optimus T (I have a T)) is listed under the compatible section.

Any of you able to run this app? If so what ROM are you using? Is anyone able to help shed light on this for me?

Thanks!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Robert542:
If your actually looking for help you can start by giving some info for your phone. More than " its a motorola". List phone model, what software, if its rooted or not, are you running a custom rom, if your are what rom. These details are very important without them you will never get an answer.

my phone can make a ad hoc network just fine it only has problems making a wifi hotspot. it does not matter what teathing program you use. what does it matter what phone it is? but its a motorola electrify(rooted but it did the same thing stock). my firend has the same phone it does the same thing it makes a hotspot you connect it works for a few min then disconnects the phone says no 3g then after a few sec it reconnects. if you teather using ad hoc it works fine. i have connected the phone to a nook, ipad, ipod toch, and other android tablets always the same thing the only thing that works is ad hoc. so if i can not make the note connect to an ad hoc network i can not teather
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PDXKris:
I've searched high and low, but haven't been able to find a solution to this issue, hopefully somebody here has a good answer for this one.

I'm trying to run Waze in the foreground and DailyRoads Voyager in the background while driving, but any time DRV is running, Waze can't get a GPS lock. If I shut down DRV, I get a GPS lock quickly and without issue. The issue doesn't appear to be app related, as I can generate the same symptoms using other camera apps and 'gps status'.

I've seen a few references on other forums where people with S3's are having the same issue, but I haven't found a resolution yet. I'm running the current OTA build, never rooted/tweaked.

Any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
This is a seriously random suggestion, but did you try turning off geotagging in the main camera app?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PDXKris:
I just double-checked, and GPS tagging was already turned off in the stock camera app. Thanks for the idea though!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PDXKris:
Can anybody else confirm if they see this behavior as well?

Since my first post I've tried rooted OTA, ran numerous CM10.1 builds (doing full wipes in between), leanKernel, testing along the way all without any real success. It seems a little hit and miss, on occasion (maybe 10% of the time) it seems to work, but in those times GPS still takes 5-10min to get a lock usually has less accuracy than when using GPS apps alone w/o the camera on.

When the camera isn't in use, I typically get a GPS lock in <30 sec (sometimes in just a few seconds).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bronxdr:
I was trying to ROOT my Samsung Galaxy S3 for Sprint I was using the steps on GalaxyS3root.com but in the middle of the process my son unplugged my phone. While I was using odin3 v1.85 the CF ROOT SGS3 v6.1.

Any help would be appreciated.

What would be the best course of action?

Install a -as close to stock as possible- ROM and start over again?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid2drummer:
That's not good bro. But if you can get back to dl mode you should be good and start over. Remember to wipe data after the completion . It will say pass when finished I believe. I've been using mobile Odin too long. Lol

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] billard412:
He failed trying to root. So yes he needs stock firmware but I figured rooted was the prefrence. The addition of superuser isnt going to make a difference. Also if he failed to get root then he most likely has a stock recovery which makes what you linked essentially worthless. If he wants it unrooted my link covers that as well. Trust me on this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Ok, but he cant install a rooted stock rom if hes not rooted? :rolleyes:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] billard412:
Yes he can. Using Odin which is what I linked. It's an Odin one click. Which will unbrick and add root simultaneously. Do you actually own a Samsung?

Or maybe you could just push an alternate launcher? Dunno. Good luck!

On further reading of that page, it might be possible to directly rename it.

Hello guys, I don't know if you guys know, but Samsung US store is having a promo for people who register their GS3 and Note 2 will receive a free case and a 50% off coupon on all accessories. Well, I just used the code that this gentleman provided and I scored the 8PI S Pen with eraser for half off. So if you were holding off from buying a case or whatever for your tablet, now it's probably the best time to do that. Cheers.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] zer0-1ne:
Yes they also send you a 50% promo code as well if you register your note 10.1.

My case will be coming in 8 weeks for the note 2 in orange. There stock seems to be dwindling because the color options were only three when i registered the note 2.

I'll Be getting spen with eraser and the smart dock for note 2 with the promo code.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] Mikest1978:
Yep I used this promotion to buy two of the 8PI S Pen with Eraser from the samsung mobile website last week. Its basically getting two for one. Fighting the urge to but the tablet dock, but it looks incredibly cheap looking and doesn't even include the charger for 34 dollars.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] Kid Poker:
I see the promotion online, but how do I actually claim the flip case? I already registered my Note 10.1 along with my Note 2 and all I got was the 50% off in the email, which is only good for the Samsung Mobile accessories.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saboture:
I pay the 11 some dollars a month for the TEP plan on my phones line, and I love the benefits. Since my first samsung moment dropped, I've probably had

3 replacement Samsung Moments

5 replacement EVO 4G's

5 replacement EVO 3D's

2 Replacement Blackberry Bold 9650's

I realize that's a lot of phones, but when you send out refurbed phones that were broken and then "repaired" what can you expect. I've honestly NEVER physically broken a phone to date (knock on wood), they've all suffered from software issues, or charging ports detaching etc.

Here's my question. I was talking to my friend last night, and he wants a new GS3 because of a superficial issue with his screen. I've had one or two phones replaced for some silly reasons, so I understand why he'd want a new one, but to date I've NEVER been charged for a phone replacement. They said it's a 150.00 fee for any kind of issues, and that's part of his TEP plan (He pays the 11.00 also).

Am I lucking out because I'm friends with all of the reps there? If there's a problem I walk into the store, ask for a replacement phone, they order one and I'm out of the store in 5 minutes and then the phones there tomorrow by 2pm. Can anyone chime in on this?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Blackcircle:
He will ONLY have to pay the 150 deductible if is physical damage.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saboture:
Okay. That would explain why he has to pay, and why I've never paid. Thanks!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rbeavers:
I knew a guy that took his dirty tennis shoes back for new one because of a stupid return policy. Doesn't make it right.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saboture:
Yes, and the thousands of people with 4G / LTE phones who live in areas WITHOUT 4G / LTE are still forced to pay that 10.00 a month, what's right about that?

Thanks for your concern though, ironically between the ages 18 and 19 I worked at my local Kmart as a loss prevention associate, and shoes were always the easiest to catch.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] TXI Kaze:
I wouldn't take moral advice on policies from people who void their warranties by rooting their phones. It's like taking financial advice from a hobo. However, yeah, doesn't surprise me that 1) they'd be easy to catch and 2) that people would steal shoes from that K-Mart. Aaaah, good times at K-Mart...miss the K-Cafe
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
That fee doesn't exist. I wish people would let that go.:confused:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ckoadiyn:
True but there is the premium fee which if you cant get over 500k why make them pay the fee
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fr0st420:
Its a smartphone data fee. I've never had 4g or LTE in my area. Don't care either.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MrSteez:
Even with the $10 added fee it's still cheaper than anyone else for unlimited data. It's not a big deal.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bigmoogle:
I see the fee as one for unlimited data - way cheaper for me than the other business models. So I'm willing to pay.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] durandetto:
Unfortunately when you get less than 200kbps at best you still pay a premium data fee and who cares about unlimited data when your speeds are pathetic. My phone is basically useless unless I'm on WiFi. Sprint won't cancel your contract unless you're roaming excessively and costing them money.

We dish out 50.00 a month to sprint for that "premium data" fee lol. That's a lot of money we just give sprint for the hell of it imo.

I'm sorry but premium data is for all smart phones because they use data all the time.

Still cheaper than what anyone else offers.

Everyone that complains about spotted with sprint, didn't you check coverage before committing?

I have great coverage everywhere I go. Hence why I have Sprint.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sanmanc:
A quick story about the fee being for smartphones. My daughter's EVO had a software issue that I couldn't fix so we went to the Sprint store and switched her temporarily to her old LG Optimus. The Rep was able to remove the $10 fee. So tell me how is this possible if you can still have a non 4g capable smartphone on the plan? I do agree though that it is cheaper than the alternatives.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
No clue. I just know they add it to all smartphones whether they have 4g or not. As of over a year.

Last year the only android phone that didn't get the fee was the Samsung replenish which is a piece of crap of a phone.

Sprint changed the 4g fee in August 2010 to a premium data fee for Android, wp, and BB phones.

You must have gotten a good Rep then.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rbeavers:
He was not stealing the store policy was if ANY thing was wrong with your purchase they would exchange it. Needless to say they have gone out of business.

---------- Post added at 12:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:28 PM ----------

If you pay for it you can do what ever you want with it.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] durandetto:
The problem is I had decent coverage until I moved to a more urban area and now my coverage absolutely sucks.

Spent a half hour on the phone today with a "technical support" rep who was just reading off her computer how to update my profile and other pointless things. Trying to blame my poor speeds on my phone. She wanted me to take my phone to a repair center until I told her it can't be my phone because all four of my phones are just as bad. She finally told me she would pass it down to the service techs in my area and call when they figure something out. They keep blaming it on an outage, but it has been this bad for over a year.
