[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farmerwardy:
I am having a few issues with music on my fone (htc sensation xe) running 4.0.2 not rooted.

I copy music via us to my sd card (8gb). It works for a while. But if I clear my temporary data the phone erases all my music. I have astro file manager and that us showing the music folder as empty too as I thought it may just be the standard music playing software with read issues.

Any idea why this is happening? Is the phone recognising mp3 as a temp file? ,a potential fix (without installing anything unnecessary)

Hope it can be sorted, I'm not due an upgrade for a long while.

Just wondering if there is working photosphere for gio.

Is that posible to add this feature to gio ?

Should be great !

I'm running CM10.1 by olddroid anyway..
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] OldDroid:
hi,

i can build it if you want, but i need to make tooooo much cam hal changes to get it working. may it will break video recorder and ah ok lets say the complete normal cam
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] junnickbefore14:
Of course i want, we want it..

If there is a big possibility to add that feature to your next release ROM, that's not a stable ROM anymore, but Awesome ROM !!

But don't push your self too hard, make it slowly but sure :D
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] SkyrimBee:
In my opinion it's unnecessary to add photosphere to CM10.1...stability is more important than photosphere..
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] junnickbefore14:
Yeah, that's right..

But how about photosphere in a stable ROM ? :D :beer:
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ironman38102:
i want stabilty not this camera ****!
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] junnickbefore14:
Then, go flash GB rom..

I use JB because performance and a lot new features..

I think its OK, i just asking anyway
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ironman38102:
Why the f.ck i would flash gb rom when CM 10.1 is stable enough! And btw why u need photosphere? I mean olddroid could make it flashable zip for u !
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Desmaize38:
You do understand that Photosphere is a 4.2.1 feature? Besides if old droid will make the photosphere work with the all camera is it a defect?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ironman38102:
If olddroid can that it is....
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] junnickbefore14:
Just wait and see..

I believe oldDroid could..

And I hope that will not break the stability
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] ironman38102:

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] shaungoh:
I wan IT!!!!

i like it so much..went to a shop and test photosphere in nexus 4!! damn is superb awesome! hope it can be include in our galaxy gio..btw..nice work on CM10.1 old droid ..^^
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] gopadi:
I things, we no need photosphere feature for gio,but we need full fungtions camera like stock firmware, just importand than its. Photosphere just optionaly fungtions on gio. In my oppinions. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] junnickbefore14:
I don't say that i really need it.

I just asking, if someone could make it real, after everything is stable of course.

For less miss understanding, lets say that photosphere as a secondary need and stability as a primary need for now.

I know that stability is more important than photosphere.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] MrM77:
Hi guys,

I bought a I9305 from Kogan which is a Hong King version. I use a Telstra network and the phone looses connection to the network intermittently and signal reception does not seem to be up to scratch. I'm comparing this to my iPhone 4 which never did this.. This is my first android smartphone so I have no idea on how to do anything to be honest. I love the phone but the network connection instability is really annoying.

I have a two part question:

1. Is anyone else in the same situation and if you fixed it what did you do.

2. Could I flash the phone with the I9305T ROM or would you suggest only flashing the modem software??

Please help...

Go here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2010116 and try one of the 2 telstra modems for I9305T
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] nateboi81:
Actually i assumed you rooted your phone which maybe you haven't. You could just flash the stock telstra rom
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] MrM77:
Nahh the phone has not been changed in any way.. I was thinking of doing that but I can not find any information if that was done before and it would work. Lots of people flash their I9305T with international rom but not the other way around.. I don't want to brake the phone?..
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] nateboi81:
You can flash any I9305 ROM on to your phone. The T bit is just some added carrier bloatware. You will most likely et much better connectivity using a Telstra specific modem. So really your choices are to root and flash just the modem or to flash the official Telstra ROM. I don't like the official versions because they add so many useless apps that you don't need
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] MrM77:
For all others that come across the same situation.

Yes you can flash the Telstra software on the I9305. I did it to mine and so far everything forks fine. Signal strength is great as expected and I have not experiences the network drop-outs since the flash.

The phone now lists it as a GT-I9305T.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] tissot:
Are you paying for a 4g plan or just regular 3g like me?

I get drop of net but i fixed it easily by going to Settings -》More options -》Network settings -》Networke mode.

And changed it to Wcdma only or auto. Shoose what ever mode that dont have lte in it.

Im a little bit unsure about the menu names cous I translated it from swedish.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Rekoil:
Did you end up flashing a GT-I9305T modem? Did it work? If you just flashed a stock rom and you don't know, you can find out by typing *#1234# in the dialer, if it says I9305T under CP then you have flashed an I9305T modem.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] bretto_aus:
Hey bud, which Firmware/Modem did you use? I checked http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/ for the official download and telstra wasn't listed there, as I'm having the exact same problems as you with a HK handset on telstra. I'm so close to just flicking this handset because of it.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] MrM77:
When I flashed the ROM it has flashed the modem software too.

You have to select I9305T as your phone model and than the telstra version will be available. However I might have to add that after I posted yesterday that same afternoon the phone dropped of the network completely as it used to do before and the restart was required to get it up and running good again. I will give it a few more days to see if it does it again.

I was holding the phone in the way that 3 sides were completely covered by hands so I'm unsure if this is what caused the loss of connection. I think a thread about this would be good to see how many people with the same phone are having this issue.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] bretto_aus:
Ok, so I flashed the telstra I9305T firmware, probably worse than before.

So when I bought my phone in HK it came sealed in a French (Orange Network) Box with a euro wall plug. I thought it was a bit strange but didn't bother me, tho the handset had HK firmware and CSC. So I thought why not and downloaded the france Orange 4.1.2 firmware from samfirmware and flashed it with Odin. And funnily enough so far its been brilliant on telstra and its jellybean 4.1.2 so its got multi-window etc, I get way better 4G coverage and speeds and no drop outs. So far so good! im stoked. It has minimal bloatware - like 2-3 apps, And it even fixed another bug I had previously had on the HK firmware where I used swiftkey keyboard then after every reboot it would default back to Samsung Chinese IME keyboard. :D

Hi there.

Sorry to bother you but I was just wondering where you downloaded your

But no success and yours sounds like the perfect rom for telstra 4g phone.

Ok I have a question which will probably blow your mind out of the water.... I have the I9305T model and have been playing around and flashed I9305 firmware on the device in order to flash JB 4.3 on my device. It has become a bit unstable. How could I revert back to the I9305T config? I have tried flashing that firmware but it is a no go﻿. I keep getting the Unsupported Version error

I have tried emergency recovery in KIES and I have tried flashing with Odin.

Any way I can revert back to the old? I used to run 4.1.2 on the device

Help with installing suitable rom GT-19305T

I am trying to fix a GT-19305t by flashing.

From the beginning

The battery started to fail. Bought a new battery and after charging and starting up the phone refused to work. I managed to get it in recovery menu after looking online.

I have tried using odin to fix. I did get a pass green message when i tried but the phone still wont work . It starts but just says in download mode do not switch off etc.

Whats confusing me a bit is that this is a Vodafone phone not telstra so how come it has the T at the end. This makes me wonder if I used the incorrect rom.

Any help please I have tried about forty hours of research and trial so far.

exhausted

I have specific questions

1 What is a good rom to use (I have searched for tens of hours and keep going in circles.) Also when I have unzipped some there is no recognisable file for Odin to use?

2 Am I doing the process correctly. it seems straightforward.

Dan
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] maultasche:
Which ROM have you flashed? After you have flashed the ROM via odin you have to boot into recovery, do a factory reset and then restart the phone. Then it should boot up fine.

What zips are you talking about? Sounds more like you downloaded custom roms, which are zips but they are flashed via a custom recovery.

I was thinking of unlocking my Sprint LG og today, but received an update early morning.

Would it be okay to try unlocking or should I wait until further update by developers about freegee project?

I've posted the same question to freegee thread.

Another thing I noticed is on my Windows machine I probably don't have LG driver (my primary os is Linux and I rooted using my Ubuntu laptop) where can I find the Windows drivers?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _Epic:
Do not update to ZV9. Unlock and Root then flash the ZV9 or Lifeless ROM in Development. If you update you cannot root.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] wis3m0nkey:
Checked software version and it has ZV8 at the end and I've already rooted the phone.

So I think as long as my software version does not end with ZV9 I can safely unlock, right?

In that case where can I get LG drivers for Windows or unlock method (freegee) for Linux? Thanks

Many said that and after using it for longer periods ended up liking it. I have it on a desktop and have no issues with the keyboard and mouse. I actually find it to be quite natural. My elderly parents took to the start screen(metro) easily. Windows 8 was a huge step forward for Microsoft. They had fallen behind over the past decade or so with very little innovation in Windows. This sets them up for the future and gets them out ahead instead of falling behind like they did with Windows mobile

Well it still works and can be done more then once but uncertain of which parts of the promo application need to be changed.

Works easy and less chance of getting the "Provide Windows 7 product key" page when doing this from your phone as opposed to the PC itself.

BE AWARE that whatever PC you do the initial download assistant from determines which version you get and the bit level too (x32 or x64).

I stupidly was (unknowingly) on the wrong PC (x32 Windows 7) when I ran the assistant and used the promo and paid for the app to get my key and once that is done you CAN'T change. I want the x64 version and couldn't just download the iso and/or install from my other PC...only options were to order the DVD ($12 and then have option to get 64 bit), keep the 32 bit or get refund. Tech support says I couldn't switch although one person mentioned there was a way albeit a rather technical work-a-round...

So I got the refund and opted to get ANOTHER promo code to do the process again but from the proper PC.

At first I did have issues where it either asked for a product key or says due to the info provided I don't apply.

Ultimately changing my phone from WiFi to carrier data thus changing IP and hostname and it worked.

So I have received 2 promo codes now and assume I could get more if wanted so for those our there....this still works and you still have time.

Thanks for the post.

I did this couple days ago and finally got Win8 on the computer.

This has been the worst upgrade I have tried so far with Windows. You name it I had it - Failed downloads, numerous times. The downloader stopped working and even a system restore did not fix it, had to make a new user account and was able to download Win8 to that and then made a pen drive for upgrading. Then I had to delete all programs, all drivers, user accounts remove all external connected devices and pray. Took a good 12 hours of reading forums of others with problems, to finally get it to finish the setup.

You would think they(Microsoft) would have tested the upgrading software to make sure that people that don't know jack about computers could upgrade without having the need to have a college degree.
