[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skorzo:
Hi there,

Now my device has the ELLA rom flashed (anyway, I'm thinking about flash the recent ELLC spanish rom)

I have rooted by CF-Root (not CF Auto root) so my counter is not zero , and the red mark is there.

I want to be "official" so my idea is not to flash a custom recovery.

I am going to use Triangle Away and to flash again the Rom with Odin.

Then I will root with CF-Autoroot.

Now, here is my problem: how to make the things that I made with a Custom Recovery, without a Custom Recovery.

- Flash .zip files -> I think I can use Mobile Odin

- Backup / restore -> Maybe Titanium Backup would help

- Wipe Data and wipe Cache -> Stock recovery is ok for this.

- Wipe Dalvik and format /system -> Any suggestions??

I am thinking about non-permanent custom recoveries, or even in a Custom Recovery that does not increase the counter...does it exist?

Many thanks for your help!!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
Stock recovery can't replace a custom one.

You can't flash zips with Odin. AFAIK you can't wipe cache from stock recovery.

The only way to have the counter at zero is not to change anything
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skorzo:
I thought that stock recovery allows to wipe data and wipe cache (cache , not dalvik)

Then .. Is there NO way to format /system without change stock recovery?

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
Why do you need to wipe system?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kofiaa:
Yeah, a data wipe is basically a system format.

Aside that, there is no such thing as a system wipe unless you want to delete your efs and all important files.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skorzo:
I think it is the best way to have a really clean Rom, without stuff from the oldest rom.

When I dont format /system sometimes I can find apps and stuff from the oldest rom, so I think that the new rom is not really fresh.

Thank you ;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skorzo:
Data wipe does not format /system

And formatting /system does not wipe Efs ...

:)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
You can't wipe system from stock recovery. Here's your answer

---------- Post added at 01:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 AM ----------

The solution would be to wipe /system from CWM, then flash flash a stock ROM with stock recovery
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skorzo:
Yes, I am pretty sure. It is not possible from stock recovery.

But I was wondering if I can format /system with an alternative method like ADB, non permanent recovery, etc.

Thanks , and please excuse me if I am stubborn

;)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skorzo:
VERY good idea!!

I will flash custom recovery only when I need to flash a new stock Rom.

Perfect ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bluecard:
hi, guys.

I'm having a mini2 with s5600 version. Am I ok to flash s5600D firmware to it?

Are the s5600 and S5600D the same?

and I managed to download the mini2 firmware from Samfirmware.

All I got it is one package S6500D firmware. 6500DLH1_S6500DCHNLH1_S6500DLH1_HOME.tar.md5

JENA_Secure_NonNFC_1109.pit and Odin3 v1.85

when I open Odin3, there is four files need to choose from. How am I supposed to use this one package?

and what's the difference between NFC and NonNFC with pit file?

Thank you for you all.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] tekkenl0rd13:
Please flash according to your model. If you have s6500 > flash s6500 firmware. same as s6500D

firmwares are flashed on the PDA tab.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bluecard:
the language I need is only with S5600D, that's why I decide to flash S5600D into my S5600 phone.

so as you said, one file package choose PDA tab, how about pit file？ doesn't need it?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Uizz.UW:
The .pit file is only needed for re-partitioning , which you don't need when flashing a firmware .

You only need the .tar.md5 , which you load as PDA .

BUT

You can't flash S6500D firmware on an S6500 (or vice-versa) . It will fail at the flashing process (it won't brick it , but it won't work anymore either until you flash a proper firmware on it) .
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] CoX26:
First of all : samsung galaxy mini 2 aka jena is s6500 !

I have one question : On samfirmware there is firmware for my country (Romania) but only for Vodafone and Cosmote (carriers) and i have Romania(Orange). If i flash the one from another carrier will my sim card work ? and if i flash one from Hungary for example (couse its the last version of firmware) will my sim card work and be able to make calls in my country ?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Tomo123:
I love threads like this. Where's my popcorn?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Uizz.UW:
RO Orange SGM2 Firmware (note that this is S6500D but I'm pretty sure you have the D one because that's what Orange is selling) - I'm on the same carrier as you and I used this without a problem many times .

And no , nothing bad will happen as long as the firmware has the same baseband . The only differences are the bloatware apps that the carriers add to the firmware .

And "Samsung Galaxy Mini 2" can reffer to S6500 / D / T / L . Each version is for a different region , as Samsung usually does with its devices .
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] CoX26:
Yes, mine is s6500D. Thank you very much for the firmware and i didn't mention that it can reffer to s6500 D/T/L because it was obvious...
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bluecard:
what do you mean "it won't work"?

it won't change anything, when power on, it still has the original version? it that what you mean?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Uizz.UW:
Odin will fail flashing it when reaching the fat.bin .
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] bluecard:
I tried it. like you said, it fail. nothing changed. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Uizz.UW:
My bad , flashing a S6500D firmware on a S6500 will result in a fail and the download will be discarted , and thus nothing will be actually flashed on the device . You're right .

The problem I was talking about appears when you repartition it . I switched them up xD

Hi all

On my wifes phone I exchanged sd card.

Formatted the new one and copied all old stuff on sd card.

When I go to recovery, recovery cant recognize the card.

I turn the phone on and in cm7 all is vissible with file manager or gallery. Music and everything...

Only on recovery I have problem.

Installed is cm7 nightly.

Tnx

[Wildfire General] CryptKilla:
Hi

Formated on pc, phone and after that also in recovery

I really have no idea. Maybe something have to do with cm7?

This card was earlier on htc sensation...

[Wildfire General] gobz:
AFAIK formatting the SD card via in built option would get things working. I think it has to do with .Android secure.

Try it and report back
[Wildfire General] CryptKilla:
What in built option do you mean?

Sent from my www.callofgods.de :)
[Wildfire General] CryptKilla:
if you mean the option in android under "storage". I already done this. Formated it and copied all stuff back to SD card.

But no luck.

Also I tried to format in recovery, but this also didn't helped me
[Wildfire General] Wasimk32:
maybe a different recovery could help.
[Wildfire General] CryptKilla:
I am assuming that the problem is that this SD card is from other phone where I had installed ICS, but now on wildfire with cm7 it is not recognized.

Maybe some partition layout problem ?

I don't think that other recovery will help there. I think the latest one is installed.
[Wildfire General] Wasimk32:
i dont think so,it should work on any phone and on any android version,you'll only face issues with sd card if you are coming from a phone with windows 7 on it

.I think recovery is to blame here,you could just try to use some different recovery like 4.0.1.4 or something.Just try and see if it works.
[Wildfire General] CryptKilla:
Hi,

solved. The problem was recovery.

I had the old one - stock installed. I didn't even notice it, because rom manager wrote something different :D

Now everything is fine. Wish me luck on new rom flashing :P

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Esteway.619:
NO!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bananagranola:
You need a sim card for straight talk. The Verizon phone does not physically take a sim card. So, no, unfortunately, you can't.

...? I have a verizon sim card in the phone as we speak....?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] infarum:
Are you trying to say that straight talk doesnt offer the small sim cards that fit the phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
Verizon phones have sim cards but it is only for lte. There is no GSM radio in your Verizon phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bananagranola:
Sorry for being unclear; let me clarify. I'm pretty sure you have an LTE sim card, which is not the same as, say, a GSM AT&T sim card (which would be compatible).

If Verizon switched to the compatible sim cards, my apologies for posting the wrong information.

Well actually if you have a Verizon Incredible 2 phone it does have a sim card that if tthe phone is unlocked does acept any sim card. The INC2 is a world phone, I have one near Chicago for my son and it works on Verizon, ATT, or Tmo

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WARpig5:
Search on eBay. There are people that will flash your phone to Straight Talk. And yes, Straight Talk is both a GSM and a CDMA MVNO. If it's a CDMA phone then it gonna be using Verizon's network, but if it's a GSM phone, it's gonna be using At&t's network.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Straight talk doesn't use ATT anymore. You can still find the Sims that will work but they cut the plan down. GSM is primarily focused on TMo now.

I set my gf up with her iPhone 4S and she likes it.

I didn't know about supporting CDMA and their website doesn't say anything about it. I'm not even sure the process. I'm assuming a CDMA sim?

I don't think this will work, at least not by traditional means.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] WARpig5:
I wasn't aware of that change, thanks for the info. If you go on the Straight Talk site, and look up the phones they have for sale, the CDMA ones will have the Verizon coverage map underneath. The problem is getting your phone's esn/meid onto the Straight Talk system. Like I said, go on eBay and there are people who will do that and fully flash the phone for you.

Okay, so this is weird. It happens on apps where the settings button (the three dots) is placed on the navbar, next to multi-task (es file explorer, viber etc.) I get the "click noise", but there is almost always either two of them following each other very rapidly - like "click click" in almost a matter of milliseconds - or there is only one click sound, but it's somewhat amplified (probably because it's actually playing the sound twice but simultaneously.) There is no behavioural difference otherwise - the settings dialogue opens (and doesn't close immediately).

They are going to send it off to an authorized repair service...(samsung), and it will get plugged in for diagnostic testing, then repaired.

My carrier is Vodafone (in Portugal). If I buy a Vodafone locked cellphone from another country (let's say from the UK) will it work with my simcard or will I have to unlock it?

Simple question but I couldn't find the answer anywhere. Maybe I'm not using the right keywords! :laugh:
[General Questions and Answers] ivoidwarranty:
Mostly No. Carrier code would be different across the different countries even if the carrier is same - so you still need to unlock it to use it with Vodafone Portugal.

has the data worked at any point before?

This is the problem that lots of people over in this thread are having ...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2084706&

We are hoping for some sort of fix to this in 4.2.2, but until then we haven't been able to find a solution. If you are 100% certain the APN settings are correct (I can't help with that as from UK so not familiar with that network) then there isn't much you can do. For me, the only thing I ever find that sometimes brings it back is if I turn airplane mode on, leave it for 30 seconds then turn it off again. Likewise, you can click on the APN to reset that each time.

If you are rooted, Faux released a modified kernal which is meant to improve data drops and the wake issue which some nexus's have.

did you cut your own micro sim?

try a spare sim if you have one.

Reset APN to default, delete all and try again.

I don't know what else to suggest other than the above / phoning google / rooting and trying a different kernal and ROM / wait for 4.2.2 update. :confused:

[Nexus 7 General] michalurban:
Hi,

Im using Nexus 7 right now. Its a pretty device (although Ill probably sell it, its too little, Im looking for something bigger). In case of 10" tablet, I would probably stick to the landscape position for all the time, maybe except when reading. But here, Im tempted to use both vertical and horizontal positions. Trouble is when it comes to launcher. I hoped at least the stock launcher would be "rotation ready" :) but it is not - when I put some widget in when vertical, it gets crushed in horizontal.

My question - is there a launcher capable of keeping different icon/widget positions according to the position of the tablet? Apex for example has many options to set, but that is not this case ... :)
[Nexus 7 General] davisac:
I don't have any problem with Nova rotating widgets.
[Nexus 7 General] michalurban:
Just checked that out. Same behavior like Apex.

Huh, not doing that here. I'm running PA2.99 in tablet mode. Might have something to do with the display difference.

Not sure what PA2.99 is :D but its clearly caused by the display properties. If only there was some launcher with more settings for different positions ... :)

You can resize the widgets dude. Or play with home screen grid size. You have to play with it to make it look and feel the way ya want. I find the process rather fun actually. Oh yea I'm talking about nova launcher btw

Are there any Galaxy Gio GT-S5660M (Canadian) ROMs currently in development? Arpeggiomod is a nice rom, but I hate Gingerbread. To add, ny stock ROM is faster than Arpeggiomod. I know I probably can't do any better, but I still have a good 2 years left of my phone contract and I want my Gio to be fast, fluid and responsive. I have tried ROMs for other models of the Gio, but they either don't work or they don't appeal to me.
