As long as you don't install any weirdo .apk, whether from the market or from the internet (especially from the internet), you're safe. Why? Because everything else than an .apk can't touch/interact with the android system. That's what I heard ^^

Also, I read that there's no "virus" but "only" .apk which send SMS to premium numbers.. Nothing of a virus that can screw up your system, especially without root. With root, yes, I think a bad .apk could screw your system...

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] RingoBell:
The baseband version listed in "About device" on my phone is currently i317UCALK7. I get that "i317" is the model of the phone. From finding other topics on other forums here (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16980217&postcount=1), the first two letters after that indicate the region of the world it was intended for. However, everything I've seen says "UG" is North America, and "UC" is not listed on any table I've seen (I can't find one specific to the Note II). I saw something earlier (sorry, can't find it at the moment) that indicated the remaining letters were some sort of date code; "L" would translate to 12 (12th letter of the alphabet), which might represent December, 2012, or the 12th day of the month, depending on its placement within the string. Using that, I have the digits 1, 12, 11, and 7, but I don't know what they mean. I've also seen UCALJ1 and UCALJ2, which seem to have been fairly popular. Why do they encode the numbers into letters, but then leave the last position numeric? Does anybody have any links that explain what each letter/number means?

Also, a related question: if the modem and ROM are independent of each other, why do the stock ROMs get labeled with a baseband code as part of their version string?

Hi everyone,

Loving my new note. Truly amazing device. Coming from a Galaxy S2.

So, I live outside US. But was able to create an music.google account faking my location.

It worked on my PC's browser and on my Nexus 7 (where the google music app comes pre installed) syncing all my albums.

Tried to install the music app on my new note. But it didn't show my library in the cloud. It shows just the music on my sd card.

How can I sync my library? It's weird because I'm outside us, but on my nexus 7 it worked perfectly.

How to Push Application to /system/app

Krsmqn,

The code was missing a little information, I am sorry. First you need to make sure adb is enabled on the Kindle by

pulling down the upper status bar where you see the time. After you pull it down select More+ the go into

Security make sure Enable ADB is turned On. Next click the <- Arrow Back, then choose Device. Make sure

Allow Installation of Applications is turned On. If all this is OK, then let's test ADB. Make sure the Kindle is

plugged into USB, next go into Windows Device Manager by Right Hand Mouse Click on "Computer", select

"Properties", next select "Device Manager". Do you see Android Composite ADB Interface under Kindle Fire?

If no, go back to our tutorial and reinstall the ADB Driver as outlined in this tutorial:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2069117

Once ADB is functioning properly, then let's PUSH files!

First let's make sure adb is running and make sure adb see's the Kindle. Please run these commands:

adb kill-server
adb start-server
adb devices

The output after devices will be a serial number, if this looks good, move on. First you need to make

sure the apk you want to push is in the same directory as adb.exe - if you have moved the apk to

the adb.exe directory, then run the following:

[FONT=Verdana]adb remount
adb push file_name_comes.apk_here /system/app/
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/file_name_comes_here.apk
adb reboot[/FONT]

Does this help?

I'm out of ideas. This sleep of death thing is killing me. Only work around I can find is...

A. Use wake my android and set it to wake every 9 secs.

B. Revert to a HC bootloader/rom,

C. Replace mainboard.

So assuming I opt for option "C", what exactly would be involved in replacing my mainboard if I were to purchase one from eBay with no OS?

I know how to physically replace the board, just don't know if it is just a matter of using NVFlash to flash the new board, or if some special hardware is needed for the initial flash?

Thanks in advance for any assistance anyone can offer!

[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Hey Hick,

Sorry to hear your 500 has constant SOD. Have the same issue on several revisions of the 501 as well.

As with changing the Main Board, the 50x is pretty much bullet proof. Generally, as long as you can get a little life in it, it generally can be restored.

The only issue, would be if the one you buy, has physically corrupt memory blocks. So not sure what shape the one you get would be in. If it's just on OS missing/corrupt, then could probably get an OS on it somehow.

Also, NVFlash needs the UID number, and if the one you buy doesn't have it, or the owner never bothered to write it down, then this could be an issue. But hopefully, could just install one of the HC service roms might take care of it. Maybe.

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] shmerl:
I got Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G SGH-T769 (it comes with Gingerbread). My goal is to get Cyanogen Mod there, so first I planned to root it and use CWM to install a CM. But I need to do it on Linux, so all the instructions found around suggesting using Odin don't help. So far I found Heimdall and installed it on Debian x86_64.

But I'm not sure what else is needed to actually root it. I found some examples with some "one click" methods, but that's not helpful (since they are for other models). Any advice?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Cirkustanz:
Hate to be a hater, but the KISS rule applies here. Just do it on a windows machine, your Linux friends won't know. Don't have one? Borrow a friends, it shouldn't take you long. :)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] shmerl:
That's an option, but I won't have an access to one until somewhat later. Just tried to figure out a way to do it on Linux now. But if that's going to be a huge hassle - I'll wait until I'll access Windows to do it. On the other hand I'd still prefer to know how to do it on Linux, in case I'll need to do it again. Heimdall is supposed to work (disregarding potential bugs, like one I got there when trying to extract a PIT file with failed interface), but I'm not sure where to get all the needed components for it (like rooted firmware and what not).
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] jbats:
Go into the blaze dev section and checkout the blaze Bible by nick. Its a one stop for everything you need.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] shmerl:
I looked there, so far I only saw: In The Beginning There was Root.ROOT!(Via Odin) CWM Vr-5.5.0.4(Via ODIN). As I wrote above, this doesn't help me, since method with Odin to unlock the bootloader is for Windows only. Unless I missed something (that page does look confusing enough for a newcomer).

Btw, that rooted kernel (tar file) mentioned on the Odin method, doesn't work with Heimdall. So unless you succeeded doing it somehow, I'm not sure how exactly that would help me.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] jbats:
I was pointing you in that direction for if and when you got near a computer using windows. Unfortunately you'll have to root that way. Once rooted you can stay away from win afterwards and just download and flash zips in recovery. I dual boot win 7 and Ubuntu 12.10.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] E107946:
Why has nobody suggested Android SDK? Odin is not the only way to do it (although the easiest, perhaps).

OP, are you trying to root the stock GB? If so, you should install Android SDK for linux (google it), and then use command adb from {android SDK install dir}/platform-tools/ directory. Please refer to http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Android_SDK for detailed instructions.

The usage is the following:

$ adb push boot.img /sdcard/external_sd

Where boot.img is the rooted boot image for GB.

$ adb shell dd if=/sdcard/external_sd/boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8

Then, you can also copy CWM or TWRP. to the sd card and flash in the same way:

$ adb push recovery.img /sdcard/external_sd

$ adb shell dd if=/sdcard/external_sd/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p22

I think for rooted GB, you can download superuser app from the Google Play, or maybe, you will need to push it to /system/app through ADB.

Thanks. I have a fastboot and adb tools, from Android Platform Tools (it's a smaller package than a whole SDK: dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools_r16-linux.zip ). But will writing the rooted image unlock the bootloader? I'm a bit confused here. I thought the locked bootlader that was a main barrier for writing new images like CM with recover tools, and Odin/Heimdall actually unlock bootloader as a prerequisite for the rest. So will adb achieve the same? And if it does, what rooted image I should use for Blaze. One of these?

OK, I managed to write a rooted kernel using Odin in the end. But that doesn't seem to help to write Cyanogen Mod to the device. I installed CWM (from Google's store) and rebooted into recovery. Now whey trying to apply an update using a CM image from download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=t769&type=

I'm getting the same signature verification error:

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

E: signature verification failed.

Does it mean that I still need to get another bootloader to flash it as well somehow?
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] shmerl:
UPDATE: OK, I figured it out. I flashed CWM from the CWM application itself, and then rebooted into recovery, which brought up CWM recovery. From there writing Cyanogen Mod worked without any issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] E107946:
Well, since you flashed boot image from Odin, you could just flash CWM with Odin as well. It would save you some time. But you figured everything out in the end anyway..

As a suggestion, I would recommend trying AOKP Beta. It is more stable than CM10 and works flawlessly with USB storage. It is my daily driver for over 2 weeks now.
