Nope. I unrooted to get the update and have done many factory resets since, but no messing around with system files.

My parents (or rather my father) seems set to jump onto the smartphone bandwagon.

He's decently computer literate.

What suggestions do you all have for an Android phone?

Requirements:

1. T-Mobile

2. <$200 (either new or used)

Options:

1. Give him my GNexus (which gives me an excuse for the N4)

2. Get my brother to give him his old iPhone 3g (since I gave him my other GNex)

3. Suggestions from this thread!

I went online and found a LG g2x for about 150. It's refurbished to supposedly mint. The only thing less than optimal is that it can't be unlocked.

It's so far superior to his iPhone 3g now though that I think he'll have fun.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] firedroidguy:
So I looked through the forums and didn't see the problem I am having. I am using GoSMSPro on my rooted S3 and when I text one of my friends who is using ATT I get her replies from a totally different number. I wasn't sure who it was at first so I texted the number back and a different lady replied saying she didn't text me. Long story short I have already been to a Sprint store with no luck, but now when i text my friend not only are the replies coming in from a different number but my texts to her are showing a number that's not mine. Any ideas as to what is going on?? Thanks in advance.

If it does it's either Sprints problem or a ATT issue.

Does it happen with all numbers or just 1 person?

Re: S3 Text Message Issues

Try un installing the Gosms app. Then wipe data on your stock messaging app (make sure you use some back up app to save any messages you need to save) then reboot the phone and test it using the stock messaging app. I think this will clear your problem.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MrSteez:
So I would like to use wifi tethering with my Nexus 10 that I plan to get soon and I would prefer not to have to add the plan to my account. I know that people used to use FoxFi but I heard that doesn't work with JB anymore (I'm on the newest update 3.16.651.3 from 1/31).

And if there is an app or program out there that will do this for free do I have to be rooted? Cuz I figure I would have to be. And on that note. How would I root and stay totally stock without losing OTA's and such. Is there even a way? I don't want a custom ROM or anything at all just the ability to tether my wifi for free.

Any help will be greatly appreciated thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] laie1472:
Yes you have to be rooted to use WiFi tether or native hot spot. WiFi tether requires root access for the app. The native hotspot requires a build prop tweak/hack. You can find more info here.

#Root-Hack_Mod*Always=LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
You can root the stock ROM. Check the threads in the dev sections. By zedomax and by regaw_lienad . You Dont even have to flash a custom recovery, I believe (that way you can still take OTAs). Really, your best bet, I think, is root and get custom recovery and flash one of the stock rooted ROMs posted in the dev section.

From my Evo LTE, yup.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MrSteez:
Thanks guys so if I just root my stock ROM and don't flash a custom recovery I can still take OTA updates no problem? Cuz that's what I want. And as for that MOD is that for using my hotspot app or for boosting my 3G by removing the proxy. Cuz as a matter of fact that proxy reset thing (by typing ##3282# and setting all the HTTPS settings to 0) because I saw online that it will boost the often very 3G slow speeds of my EVO.

And is there a specific app that I would need to download afterwards to use? Or could I use the native Hotspot app after? Sorry for all the questions guys but I am just very curious about this and I greatly appreciate all the help.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] laie1472:
Yup if you just root your stock rom without flashing a custom recovery you should be able to accept ota's without any issues. However if your rooted and accept and ota then you more than likely will loose root. Also by accepting an ota you take the chance of permanently loosing the ability to gain root or achieve s-off. Also that mod is for the native hot spot to work. No app needed. The speed up 3g mod is a sperate from this I believe.

#Root-Hack_Mod*Always=LTE
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Seriously, just unlock bootloader and install custom recovery. Then flash a stock rooted ROM from here. And when there is an OTA update, you will be able to find a rooted version of THAT here as well. Our devs keep us up yo date,... even for those who prefer stock.

From my Evo LTE, yup.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] eXplicit815:
This is odd, but I'm stock, not rooted. S-OFF'd, but locked. And I have the most up-to-date version. And when I use the Sprint HotSpot application, it doesn't give me the error that I need to have the plan, it just connects, acts like it's allowed to use it, but just drops the 3G over and over again, and never connects to anything on my Galaxy Tab. It should throw back the error saying I don't have the plan, right?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MrSteez:
Yeah that's what it always does. That's what mine does too and I'm 100% stock nonrooted and S-on

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] erikk:
So I got a warranty replacement S3 because of some hardware problems with my current S3. I'm attempting to backup the old phone and restore it to the new phone. I tried using My Backup Pro and it didn't restore any of the account settings. So I attempted to use Kies and seems to back up fine but when I attempt to restore to the new phone the "Email Account Information" and "Network settings and bookmark information" items are there in the list but are greyed out and I can't select them.

My phone is on stock JB 4.1.1 and is not rooted. I know that if I root the phone the backups can include all information and settings from within the apps which would be nice but I'm not sure I want to root the old phone just to backup and then unroot it to return it to AT&T. If that solves the issue of not having to input all the account information again maybe it'll be worth it but I haven't really kept up on the rooting/flashing/etc issues with this phone/OS. I'm not a complete newb to flashing/rooting/jailbreaking but the s3 is my first droid (WM phones back in the day and iPhones until s3 came out) and so far I've been happy enough with the stock android that I haven't felt any need to root or flash before now (especially since when S3 first came out rooting was irreversible for warranty purposes to my understanding).

Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Check your PATH variable in Windows. Either view it by right clicking on My Computer and selecting Properties, then going to the Advanced Tab and selecting Environment Variables, or open a CMD window and type

echo %path:;=&echo.%

That will show all the entries, each on a new line so they are easier to read. Make sure there is a path entry for C:\WINDOWS\system32. If there is not add the following:

%SystemRoot%\system32

Allright guys I have rooted every android phone I have had. I have never felt as lost as I do right now. I was following a thread that was a stock rooted Samsung ROM based off LJC which I installed when I rooted. Suddenly that thread is MIA. I now see tons of posts about Ma5 and LK8 but almost no ROMs built off LJC.

First questions wth is Ma5?

Second If I originally did a stock update to LJC do I really need whatever is in Ma5?

Third from what I understand there has been no official release of the LK8 software update correct?

Finally why would I want to update to LK8/Ma5?

Thanks so much,

Re: Ok confused... LK8 vs. MAC?

Not sure where you saw mac but MA5 is the most recent leak released by sextape and garwynn has posted one clicks. I've updated each time a release is posted and have been happy with the improvements over the previous. The most recent and most important update to MA5 was the exynos abuse exploit fix. There are several ROM's in the dev thread based off of LJC.

Hope this helped a bit.

Re: Ok confused... LK8 vs. MAC?

LK8 and MA5 are leaked buids of android 4.1.2 by Samsung. LCJ is the latest official build released by Samsung and Sprint. LCJ is android version 4.1.1. Its up to you if you want to give this leaked builds a try. They include new features but may have small bugs. Personally I flashed MA5 and its workings great for me, better than LK8.

I have had a bog-standard, stock HTC One X+ (AT&T) since about November. Occasionally I will look and it will say that I have no SIM card installed--this doesn't happen as a result of a bump/jostle/anything that I can tell. I've noticed it when it's been sitting in a dock (both car and home), when it's sleeping on a table and while it's in my pocket.

The only way to "fix" this that I've found so far is to reboot. I thought that I'd be able to toggle through Airplane Mode but that hasn't really worked to get it to re-detect the SIM.

Has anyone else come across this? I wasn't able to find it when searching the forums.
