[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kallen3103:
When I sold tech I hated the instructions that assumed a body of knowledge when I was setting up labs that I didn't have. I have, hopefully in a clear fashion, explained exactly how to check MD5 sum's using ES File Explorer. I had no body of knowledge in this either so maybe my experience can save you some time. The MD5 Sum check is essentially comparing "serial numbers" to make sure that the download is as labeled. The problem with precise directions is everything changes. The biggest issue is to remember that we need to compare the MD5 sums and that somewhere, after a long press on the file we have downloaded and is on our phone, ES File Explorer will generate a MD5 sum.

To check the MD5 sum of a zip file you downloaded and will reside on your phone, begin by copying (cut and pasting) the MD5 sum number from the download page when you download the ROM, update, or the Radio, etc. You will use this number to compare to the MD5 sum generated by ES File Explorer. Once you have that number written down (cut and pasted), open ES File Explorer, navigate to the zip file on your phone that you downloaded and long press the zip file whose MD5 sum you need to verify before flashing. Then choose properties in the ES File Explorer window- it’s all the way at the end- for the zip file whose MD5 sum you are checking. When you do long click the zip file in ES File Explorer a window will appear and in the lower left hand corner of the ES File window. It says “show check sum”, click it. In the next window choose MD5 and then choose calculate. ES file Explorer will generate the file’s MD5 Sum. This sum and the MD5 sum you wrote down from the original download page should match. If they do not, do not flash it. Find where there is a downloadable that has a matching MD5 sum.

This works the same in pretty much every file browser I've ever used on Android. You don't really need to copy it though, all you need to remember is the last 5 digits, if they are the same, the rest will be as well. Or you can just task switch from the browser to the file explorer to verify. At least that's how I do it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] stoopendis:
Es is great but lately Ive been using "Solid Explorer". When you ask for the md5 it comes back with the md5 and a spot to paste the one you copied from the dl site. It compares them and gives you a "check mark" if they match.

hey incredibly smart people here,

i bought a d710 off craigslist to replace my ailing evo 4g. when i went to activate it, it didnt do hands free, so we attempted the manual program - when we ##72786# and entered the MSL given by sprint, i get a MODEM EXCEPTION OCCURS then a yes tap box. I also have baseband unknown and hardware unknown. i have tried the Gingerbread flash back to stock rom for people with issues, i have forwarded to the GA10 Stock JB rom, when i ## to program and enter the MSL it brings up the scrtn instead of the error, but there is nothing there, if i hit menu, doesnt do anything. im just frankly perplexed by it all. the hardware works great aside from activation. anyone have any other ideas before i sell it as a phone for metro or whatever, unflashable?

thanks guys!

Never buy phones from cl. Too many chances that your getting somebodys borked phone.

If you can't try it out before you buy it, don't buy it.

Nobody buys a car online and has it delivered by ups, no! You meet and road test the car before you buy it.

Get a refund if you can.

Good luck.

Long shot but I'm curious - Does the phone work, besides not being activated?

If it does, I'm wondering if you can't do a getprop ril.MSL with adb and seeing if the MSL is correct.

Seeing a lot of posts with the issue, but from CM builds, but no real fix. Unless I'm overlooking it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] haloseven:
Yes the phone works, had it On WiFi and everything works except getting it to activate bc of the no baseband . Can you send me a link to how to do the stuff you're talking about?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Sure. If you're on an ics or jb build, use the following link. If you're on a gb build, its less work. Let us know which build you have.

Check in Settings->About Phone->Status and write down the Dec MEID.

Then open the back cover and see if it matches.

ok i did the f24 flash, and it lets me get into the phone info, it says meid and msl as uknown. Ive attached the serial number to my samsung profile and it says it was built in november 2012. its just so perplexing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
OK, first things first then. Take that Dec MEID and check with Sprint to make sure they have the same one. As long as they do and you're okay to activate under that MEID you'll need to reprogram the phone to put that back in. PM me for the details on how to do that.

More than likely the person hosed their EFS data and thought it was borked - deciding to sell instead of fixing it.

On idle, GSam battery monitor reports I have 55 minutes of estimated battery life remaining on 24% charge. But that's the end of the story. Perhaps you could spare a few minutes and hear out a strange tale.

When I first got my LG Optimus L9 about two weeks ago, I was amazed by the estimated battery life of 3 days on standby. Then the number started decreasing to about 1 day on standby, to now 4 hours. I've tried everything, from turning off location services to stopping synchronization with my Google account to uninstalling updates to every application you could think of. I am at my wit's end now. The last option available to me will be a hard reset, although I am trying to avoid one because I will lose all my application data. Yes, the data may be synchronized with my Google account, but should the problem lie in there, I will be facing the same meager battery life as before once I re-download those applications and restore my data.

And then I read someone else on the forum still has 66% battery charge after 3 days of use. What.

Tomorrow I will take a snapshot of battery usage on a full day with GSam battery monitor. I fear the results will be ambiguous and unhelpful.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicesoni_ash:
Hi ...

Yesterday away from home I didn't have my original S3 charger with me so I tried to charge it using a generic charger and it didn't work, so I tried with another one and that didn't work too. I tried with three different generic chargers and all didn't work so finally I had to manage an original HTC charger and that one worked so my question is whether not a single generic charger will work with S3 and only the original one will work or is there something can be done in this regard as I can't always have my original charger with me.

Thanks.

Some generic chargers work. They do mostly say on the package so you will want to check. I have galaxy s, desire, optimus, galaxy note, xperia arc s chargers that all work on s3. Korean galaxy note don't work though..

These all are original chargers ;) I was talking about the generic ones.. Thanks for your replies though.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xcly:
I bought an portable charger from abker that works well, got another for charging in the car and that works fine too. But I am rooted and on a custom rom though. I think samsung has something built in to not let generic chargers work.

My gal tab don't charge on generic or through usb. Has to be from an ac source.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shelnes:
I use a generic charger from HAMA. It works just perfect.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
It's depending on current potential

The original charger has output current of 1A, some generic charger doesn't have that much potential, so I guess that's why not working.

Some of the bad quality may charge your battery, but also will interferes your touch screen operation which means your screen would unresponsive or go crazy when you charge it...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicesoni_ash:
Yes, that did happen. Screen went unresponsive for quite some time.. Anyways I guess you are right.. It should be because of not appropriate current..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tigerporc:
unas nindct

For the screen going haywire/unresponsive (Touchscreen Electromagnetic Interference), the problem is with your charger. Low quality chargers have a lot of 'noise' and may not provide a stable current as well. Get rid of such chargers...

As for the charging itself, the quality of the USB cable has an effect as well. Low quality cables may not even be able to allow 1A of charge.

Install "Battery Monitor Widget" to monitor the charging process.

If you just want to know the charge received by the phone, just install "CurrentWidget"

hi..

I'm trying to enable the usb mass storage mode on cm10 fxp204.

I tried the terminal emulator codes,

setprop persist.sys.usb.config mass_storage

and also the build.prop line

persist.sys.usb.config=mass_storage

This does work, although I cant get the "turn on usb storage" dialog on the phone after this and my computer shows a blank "removable disk" drive which upon clicking says, "Please insert a disk in Removable Disk".

Thus, the mass storage mode is working, albeit the sd card is not getting mounted.

Can anyone suggest anything to make this possible?

Thanks..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] morris1975:
Hi,

By default USB storage is in MTP mode and no "turn on usb storage" dialog pops up. Make sure your phone is unlocked, it' s in the home screen, as mine does the same as yours but after I enter the pin code I can access my sd card from my pc.

Hope that helps.

Morris

Wrong section bro....

Decompile framework-res. go to res/xml.storage.xml.

Follow this, the one on the left.

hehe, sry for that.. but yes, I searched the net, and had already done the exact thing.. but what it just did is, bring the Mass storage option along with the mtp,ptp list.

The problem remains the same. It shows a blank removable disk icon..

Is there any smali, or anything that I should look up?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Tan9890:
Well, It seems you are accessing the sd card through MTP mode. Am I right?

That already works, I need the mass storage mode as the file transfer speed is too slow..

Thanks though..:)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] adulfo:
This is the only xml to be edited. Trust me.

Go to settings/Storage and then menu, check mass storage. That is what I did to my framework-res with FXP CM10.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Tan9890:
yes, this is exactly what I got...but does it show the "turn on usb storage" dialog on ur phone later, for mounting the sdcard?

That step is not happening on my fone after connecting it in mass storage..

Oh!! Silly me! The debugging was on...:D Turned it off. Now its working..:D

Hey adulfo!

I also want to achieve this, and it doesn't work for me either :/ It is actually the first time for me to decompile!

I use aptktool to decompile, I edit the file (just add the line with the storage) and build it again. Anything I can do wrong there?

Then I push the file in TWRP over adb (adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk).

I wipe cache, dalvik and fix permissions.

Still I have no choice for this :( (only PTP and MTP)

Hi Guys,

My swipe screen suddenly doesn't work today.

Normally when we press power button or home button, it will suppose to open up the lock screen then we swipe it which will unlock it into home screen.

But this morning, when i press the home button or power button, the lock screen came out and it go into home screen in 2 second without me swiping it to unlock it.

Anyone has this issue or know how to fix it?

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ECOTOX:
What do you guys think, should i go with a note like i was planning too or get this laptop?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834310625

theres pros and cons to both but i just cant decide x .x

I have a wacom pad already on my desktop and is the reason i like the GNote

I have tons of games for both android and windows and either one would be able to play all the ones i have for either OS. The laptop will be able to run my adobe suite though and the GNote wont.

What do you guys think? stick with my GNote plan or might i be short changing myself in the productivity department?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fishgimp:
Are you planning to replace your desktop with it? The note is definitely not a desktop replacement (no proper adobe suite etc, apps still have a bit of a way to go but are getting much better) but as for laptops... nowadays i hardly ever use my laptops unless i want to do a lot of typing. if you want the note as a side sketchpad or to do work up to a certain extent then it's a fantastic tool... the only thing similar is a tablet pc and those are $$$ and comparatively horrible for battery life so.

Personally i use my desktop anytime i need to get big things done fast but use the note 10 for quick sketches, small pieces and to draw on the go, or while sitting on my couch. Then i usually add the last few touches on my desktop.

Hope that helps.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ECOTOX:
Actually yea it does.... Ty

No I'm not b trying to replace my desktop, just be a bit more productive with my some of my work when not near it and get rid of the needed to carry a sketchbook.

Think I'm gonna stick with the plan of getting the note. The power of the laptop would be nice but I think the portability of the note out weighs the potential benefits of the laptop. I can also save about 100$ getting the note xP
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Riki1kenobi:
Note all the way mate. Was in a similar situation last year. Bought a laptop in the end, because I just couldn't see how the note would do what I wanted it to. Then I got a note a few weeks after and tbh the laptop is just sitting gathering dust.

For drawing I use either sketchbook pro (note version) or infinite painter pro and when combined with photoshop touch (which comes with the note) you get a hell of a lot of productivity on your hands, rarely needed to use the desktop. You will be amazed at just what you can achieve, well i have been anyway. Only package I'm really missing is a proper animation one. But I'm sure with time that will come and if not, theres the trusty ol PC in the corner.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] rtan73:
I might be able to help, seeing as I had the same decision to make a handful of months ago, It really depends on the type of art your trying to make. I'm an illustrator that recently bought a Note 10.1 to do some sketching on the go. I use my Note to start the sketching stage of an illustration.I would not be able able to complete an entire illustration on the Note. It can't handle large files with a lot of layers(80mb). I normally use Photoshop and on the tablet I would be missing too many tools that I normally use. Only a handful of Android apps can open a pre-exiting .psd files with layers intact. Plus the screen is to small. My desktop setup is a triple 28" monitor setup with an Extra Large Intous4 tablet and 2 x-keys.

I used to use a laptop with an extra wacom, but unless your planning on sitting still for extended periods of time its not practical. It take as while get going each time and pack up. With the Note I'm able to use it while walking. The perfect example is shopping with my woman. While I'm waiting for her to move to the next store I can sit in the corner and sketch. This would not be practical with a laptop.

Even if that was not a issue, most laptop have a screens that have bad color shift when you move your head from side to side. I have messed up an illustration that I was working on because of this. Also the battery life on my laptop with constant use is a little over 2hrs. which is terrible.

Another option was to get one of new tablet pc's (slate) or new windows 8 pro tablets. I didn't go that route because of price. I don't want to be lugging around a 1000+ piece of tech around. Because I dismissed this as an option I didn't use any of these product hands on, so I don't know if there are any issues. There are some videos on youtube.

I mainly use PS Touch and LayerPaint. They work best with my work flow. I would only use PS Touch If it could open .psd files.

The android apps the the other poster mentioned are also the ones that I recommend. I would also like to add Layerpaint to the list. It's one of the few apps that can open .psd files with layers intact(PS Touch can not, it flatten the image).

If you want the natural media look I would go with Infinite Pro or Sketchbook Pro.

I your just using it for light sketching the think the Note 10.1 would be better. I you want to do completed work you might want to look into the new windows 8 pro tablets.

Here's a link to my Deviantart gallery to see the level of my illustrations http://r-tan.deviantart.com/gallery/.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] fishgimp:
lol PS Touch can't open layered psds??? that's so stupid. (you can see how much I use it, haha)

ps awesome gallery!

no problem, as the other posters here have commented I totally agree with them, laptop + wacom = sucky. a tablet PC would be better... but I had tablet pcs, didn't like the weight + heat + noise + battery life and the digitizer is exactly the same. having the tablet pc would not be worth the doubled price IMHO unless you plan to be doing full work while you're travelling a lot? also, the new slate screens are not much bigger than the note, and usually stretched in a weird long portrait dimension it seems...

pretty sure you'll love using the note as a mini-cintiq (eg. i have a 20 inch cintiq on my workstation but i often just use my note instead cause it's so easy to whip out /turn on/ take anywhere)

I have been using Clover Paint on my note (cannot open psds or transform yet (in development) but i've found it great to work with once it's all set-up the way you want)
