[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tys0n:
I flashed "WIPE_I8190.zip" as pda in odin. Look at this post.

Regarding custom binary download & custom status I dont think there is anything we can do about it for now. Maybe if some developer find out where that info is stored but untill then, if it even happpens, we can only wait :/

eeceet aff.

i made my device is open for now. in odin mode my system still seems custom however i install samsung's original rom and counter is still one. TriangleAway doesnt run on our device s3 mini. as u say we have to wait for a fix.

I'm trying to figure out if it is possible to make a custom widget to using DVR to replace a stock widget from one of my apps. In particular, I'm looking for a Winamp replacement, as the color of its widget does not match that of my theme. If this is possible, would it be possible to make widgets for other ones as well? Specifically Unified Remote, Pandora, and VLC Remote? I'm new to the whole idea of making themes, so any and all help would be much appreciated.

Quick question, how many wallpapers are you seeing as available? I loaded Viper's rom and now I only see 22 currently and I swear when I was on UKB, I saw thousands like I usually did... I tried changing the dpi to 440 but still only 22. :(

Curious as to what people are seeing on diff ROMs... stock/UKB/Viper/Hatka/etc
[HTC Droid DNA] Robert235:
im on Hatka 26 with family filter off and 23 with on.but live wallpapers are in the thousands.

Looks like ZEdge updated their app server to deliver 1080 wallpapers for DNA. My DNA is stock and the app seems to have changed in the past week to support this.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] randy_c:
Correct me if I am wrong but after searching I think the below is what I know:

Xperia T : Work for Tmobile and AT&T 3G only..

Also known as Sony LT30p

General 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

3G Network HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100

Xperia TL: work for 3G tmobile and 3G/LTE for AT&T?

as Sony LT30a.

General 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

HSDPA 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100 - LT30a

LTE 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1900 / 2100 - LT30a

Xperia TL: for AT&T phone and only E for tmobile?

Available as Sony Xperia TL LT30at (AT&T).

General 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900

3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100 - LT30at

4G Network LTE 700 MHz Class 17 / 1700 / 2100 - LT30at

So the best phone would be TL30a > Because it will work with 3G tmobile and 3G/LTE for AT&T? Is this correct?

(My wife has Tmobile and I have AT&T so I want to buy a phoen can works for both just in case :) )

I have CM10 latest nightly installed on my T989, and for as long as I remember have used wireless tethering to share my internet with various devices (ipad, surface, touchpad, etc.). Today, I started up the wireless tether on my phone, jumped on my surface and started getting redirected to a T-Mobile splash page advertising Mobile Hotspots. Is this something new? Anyone else experiencing this? I didn't think they could detect a rooted phone using tether...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] icenight89:
... back on topic. OP, I bypassed this issue for friends of mine who were tethering to a desktop computer with unlimited 3g data with a canadian service provider called mobilicity. Basically any web services access through a browser were blocked, but for some strange reason an online game they played worked.

I instantly narrowed it down to a DNS issue. The game accessed there games servers directly via ip addresses, so it wss immune. They were using the user agent string the browsers provided to block all web browsing on the computers.

To sum it up, look into something called changing your user agent string. look into browsers on the surface that support this and change the string to either that of an iPad or iPhone. wouldn't be surprised if it magically started working again

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eserim:
Mine is very good - about a minute to get down to less than 5 m accuracy - using GPS Status and the ArcGIS Application with very detailed basemaps (part of my work).

The only thing is, like my Defy, the height data is rubbish, saying 180 m at the moment instead of 118 - is this a generic Android thing?

I've just put a Sim card in my phone and the GPS works much better!

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Nocturin:
I found one that might work for you, update the OP with the info.

I've got to flash my relay to stock and when I do I'll create a small guide. For now I found an older flash that could be used then KIES could update this ROM to the current LH1 (Need to verify build number).

I need a stock rooted rom, while traveling through the mountains the switching in CM9 isn't working correctly (phone constantly looses service when switching from 4g>3g>Edge frequently).

Thank you, is a very useful guide ! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] RazoE:
You should post your first post from this thread in the request thread to show everything going on. Should work better than just posting "Samsung Relay, please"
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Nocturin:
That's the plan after I get it organized. I'm also going to follow the instructions given by kinfauns.

It's a start.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Nocturin:
Never really notice that many steps when you go through it quickly, but this is the process that I used to revert my CM9 + CWM recovery to Stock rom + Stock Recovery. I don't know if it was supposed to happen that way, but it did. After flashing the stock PDA file (via odin) I was able to flash the CWM recovery again while adding root to the stock rom.

All of the items talking about (roms, odin, root, ect) except a program to unzip the files can be found in links in the thread in my signature. For reference, I use 7zip and just rightclick>7zip>extract to folder.

How to go Back to stock w/root from CM9:

Download stock rom (newest is the LJ1 tar.rar).

Download Odin

Unzip LJ1 into it's own folder. Navigate to where you unzipped the file.

Rename unzipped file to remove .md5 so it ends in ".tar" instead of ".tar.md5"

Unzip Odin (into it's own folder, navigate to the folder)

Put phone in download mode (Instructions are quoted in the OP of the thread in my sig)

Start Odin (assuming that you have already plugged the usb cable into your computer)

Connect phone (that's in download mode) to computer via USB cable.

ODIN Will have blue "Added!" box after it's recognized the phone (2nd box from the top left)

In ODIN, click the "PDA" Box and select the .tar for LJ1 (the file you unzipped and renamed)

Uncheck the "auto-restart" radiobox under "Added!". Then Click Start.

Wait for odin to finish. Do not touch your phone or click any buttons in the odin program. After It's done, reboot the phone.

Go into recovery mode on the phone (Vol Up Instead of Vol Down)

Wipe SDCard and cache

Reboot phone. It may take a few minutes to pass the samsung screen. The phone will vibrate briefly as is finishes booting

Sign into the phone (google, facebook, ect...this is probably a skipable step).

Turn off phone. Reboot into download mode (Vol Down)

Download nopty's CWM recovery

Unzip file (into it's own folder, navigate to it), removing the .md5 like the file above

Connect phone to computer, after ODIN recognizes ("Added!") it click the PDA button

Navigate to the unzipped and renamed (".tar") CWM file and select it.

Unceck "Auto-Reboot". Click start

Wait to finish, then power off and reboot phone

After phone has re-booted connect to computer

After connected to computer, transfer SuperSU zip(CWM Flashable) to SD card (You'll need to download this too, can be found in the Updated Stock Roms link)

After that's transferred, reboot phone into recovery mode. (Vol Up)

Use CWM to flash the SuperSU zip

Reboot phone

Congrats, you now have a stock rooted phone!

Just the basic frame for the guide, will update with links and what little troubleshooting I know and add guide to OP after it's finished.

Also, the damn notification icon won't go away despite postponing the update.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Nocturin:

Not yet for me. I'm playing around with a stock rooted (debloated) rom that gee one made right now, I didn't get the OTA update message though. If you do "update" you should still be able to flash CWM and enable root/superuser again. Keep up updated!

I am thinking of buying this phone with such great hardware....but one important question....does this handset have a common 'broken compass' issue?!!!...came across a couple of post with such issues....btw why dont we have a dedicated forum for this famous device?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Nocturin:
Broken compass?

I remember seeing a few posts about it too, but I didn't flag them unfortunately. Post the question in the Development thread and we may be able to get you an answer quicker :good:.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] mikeybot:
Broken? No, but on occasion, it does momentarily glitch up, but once you start moving it clears itself up. Nothing like what would happen with the G2. (I do also have GPS Status installed as well)
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] misteropinion:
I did run the update after taking a look through the zips and deciding to take the plunge and see; and it does reflash the recovery, and while I do have Odin, I have as yet been unable to flash any CWM again. There are no errors, it just doesn't work. I am as yet hopeful though and will report my progress. I didn't see anywhere in the update where it updated the bootloader, so flashing should still work.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] jarrodlombardo:
After I got the update last week, I tried flashing CWM. Odin said flashing the CWM worked, but CWM wasn't actually on my device (just stock recovery even though the custom OS flash count thing had incremented). I did it again, but this time with "Auto Reboot" unchecked. When Odin was done, I unplugged my device from usb, and rebooted directly into recovery and CWM was now there and I could re-root the device.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Nocturin:
Unchecking auto-reboot seems to be the key.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] mikeybot:
I don't think I've seen this mentioned/asked anywhere, but has anyone managed to figure out how to be able to move any of the apps to the sd card ince the internal memory is listed as the sd card?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Nocturin:
I have tried yet, but I imagine that app to sd combined with root might be able to move all but system apps and google apps.

Worth a shot.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Duc Bop:
Thank you, is a very useful guide
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] mikeybot:
I actually tried a couple of app 2 sd apps last night and wasn't able to move anything because of the on phone storage showing up as sdcard an the actual card being extsdcard.

They were link 2 sd, app 2 sd and gemini manager(i think...i deleted them after they didn't work
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] gee one:
I thought apps2sd was a gingerbread concept. Is anyone running out of memory? I think we could debloat a bit more and free up more memory. If an app is in /system/app and it gets updates, it will store another copy in /data/app, which will take up twice the space for an app that is available in the market. I think debloating the rom will free up space more efficiently than moving to the ext sdcard.

sent while running with scissors
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Nocturin:
This like google music/books/movies and the like store all of their cache'd data on the internal sd_card. At that point space is at a premium and I've gotten many low disk space errors due to it.

I've got a few apps (games from the humble bundle for instance) and ithers that will fill up the 5GB available real quick. The sooner I can transfer things to the 32gb sdcard, the better.

Would it be as simple as contacting one of the developers for those products to add an ext_sd card option... considering it's the same for the S3 but it has more local memory?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] mikeybot:
I want to revert to the stock rooted ROM from the CM10 build and for some reason, when I'm trying to restore that via CWM (I updated CWM, but I didn't do a new backup prior to flashing CM, so that could be the problem. I'm getting "Error while restoring /system!").

Is there anyway to unpack and rezip the stock ROM image so I can flash via CWM or do I have to do it by Odin?

Or should I just do a data/factory reset, flash the updates from LH1 to MA2 via CWM and will that get me back to stock with root since I have CWM and superuser already?

Thanks!

Nevermind, just wound up doing it through Odin anyway.

I did reflash the older CWM but still had the error in trying to restore the previous backup. Going to get everything up to date (MA2 and the newer CWM), backup (AGAIN) and when I get some time see if that lets me flash back and forth.
