Warranty is for manufacturer's defects not accidentally bricking

That is what insurance is for.

Any other discussion of "warranty" replacement in this circumstance is fraud

Thank you for understanding

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kuntri:
I just hard bricked my sgs3. FIRST TIME EVER!! I've been flashing roms,kernels, etc since the MyTouch3.

Little back story.....:D

I flashed the LSmooth - Linaro 4.2.1 Jelly Bean Rom with CWM6. I noticed that I could not find my nandroid backups. Searched XDA and saw a thread that stated that TWRP is compatible with 4.2.1 and it will move the internal /sdcard from /0 back to its original file location, etc, etc. I went to GooManager, downloaded the twrp.tar (d2vzw), then went to MobileOdin, loaded the .tar file and flashed.

BOOM!!! No power, DOA. dead ass!! :crying::crying:

(( FACE SLAP )) then I remembered via build.prop it was configured as "maguro" and not "d2vzw". So, I'm assuming that since I failed to edit the build.prop before flashing the d2vzw TWRP recovery, it bricked my phone.

-- No power via wall, usb

-- No download / recovery mode

-- NOTHING! :eek::eek::eek:

My question is, if I were to call in and ask for a warranty exchange, what is the likely hood of Verizon troubleshooting, reviving my phone and figuring it out that its been rooted?

Or, should I just send my phone to someone that can JTAG it for me?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Idk if you're permanently hard bricked. Reason being is because this person flashed the latest twrp using GooManager but it installed the Maguro version. Different method but they were able to get out of it. Have you tried pulling the battery then booting holding all three buttons for like 15-20 seconds? Might take a few tries.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] barrackOBAMA:
Verizon could care less I think.

I have had three droid razrs replaced just because of a boot loop and if they would look into the memory, they could clearly see I rooted if.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] M9x3mos:
Hello everyone,

I had a quick questions I was hoping that maybe someone had a answer for with some changes I want to make on my T-Mobile Galaxy S3 with the uvjc software that was just released.

I basically have stock software and stock recovery on the device but have root.

On older version of software I replaced the framework using custom recovery file manager of twrp then flashed back stock recovery then just used triangle away to reset custom counter.

I have modified the framework again to enable bluetooth tethering that I didn't have on it before and want to switch but would like to do it via just using root and not a custom recovery. As flashing custom recovery will trip counter and have heard triangle away does not work on the new version (have not tested this myself).

Is there anyway to replace the framework-res.apk just using root access and on stock ROM and recovery?

Thank you for any advice you may be able to provide in advance.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] M9x3mos:
Anyone know?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Probably shouldn't be modding without a nandroid. But I would guess that you just drop the file in the appropriate directory?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] M9x3mos:
sadly won't work for this for since its seemingly in constant use if I do that in the past the system crashes and don't copy fully.

Hi

I today started to update lg optimus 3d with lg upodater and it failed 10x times and after that phone will not boot.

If i connect to pc then it only vibrate but without cable nothing will happen.

Is there any way to repair this situation?
[LG Optimus 3D] maamees:
now i see lg logo and it fully booted when i connect to charger ,but if i installed clockwork from rom manager and tryed to restart to recovery mode then its stuck at lg logo. It will not boot anymore too.
[LG Optimus 3D] Itaka06:
AW: Q: LG optimus 3d wont boot

Dont install it via rommanager, do it with wkpars fastboot files. Install xloader and uboot and after that you can directly install cwm, that works for sure ;)
[LG Optimus 3D] maamees:
the problem is how i can get it to fastboot if its locked into recovery mode? everytime i powe ron it will go to recovery.

And i have android 2.2.2 :D
[LG Optimus 3D] maamees:
if i do with that it brings that s/w update or whatever screen is that. and it stays there. if i try install anything what require fastboot ,it just says waiting for device
[LG Optimus 3D] Itaka06:
AW: Q: LG optimus 3d wont boot

i tryed that but in kdz updater it will start and some point it will jsut say error updating.

my phone is like now if i connect with charger then it will boot and show lg logo but in 1 minute screen is black and do nothing.
[LG Optimus 3D] daniel.mota:
Install LG official update program (LG Flash Tool) and do a system recovery.

It will prompt you for your imei, and it will install the latest stock rom for your country/provider.

Insert USB without Battery while Holding Volume UP then insert battery does it still boot to recovery

Is it the copy bit your having most trouble with or the paste bit? If your not on a word, it wont bring up the copy header so have you tried zooming in more so you are sure your actually on a word? Reg paste, a work around may be to paste in to a note taking app and then copy it out of there? Without seeing what your doing wrong, its very difficult to give you an answer.

Running rooted stock 4.2.1 (JOP40D) here. Stock (Android soft) keyboard, but occasionally using BT keyboard as well.

Mostly it seems to work for me, but I have experienced exactly what you said:

I would copy something from a web browser - no problem with selection mechanism, no errors when the "copy" on-screen button is touched; but when I go to the destination app, the pasted text would be from a prior "copy" operation in a completely different app. Repeating multiple times had no effect.

I don't know what causes it nor what makes it resolve.

Hi there,

I've one Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, only with WI-FI connection. I would to know if it's possible to connect one 3G USB Pen device to my Galaxy Note.

It's possible?

Thanks

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] ultramag69:
Do you mean the Bluetooth Pen? It's not 3g.

The pen is like a BT headset. Its the note itself that is 3g. You need to have bought an N8000 model. WIFI only is useless as you can't make phone calls away from wifi or without the phone tether. And why would you tether to a phone, make a call from the tab then untether?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] mke1973:
Those of us in North America have greater access to public WIFI and it's easier to use VOIP on a tablet or smartphone. I've used my bluetooth headset to make phone calls on my note. I have VOIP on my smartphone and use it frequently, I live in an area with poor cellular sevice and often have better call quality with VOIP on a WIFI hotspot.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] jppm89:
Thanks for your responses.

In fact, I've one Galaxy Note 10.1 N8010, without 3G. I would like to connect one USB 3G Modem. This is only for access to the Internet.

hoss_n2, I don't have root on this device to test this app. :(
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] Szadzik:
If you do not have root and do not want to root the only option is to exchange it for a 3G enabled one. I see no point in buying a device without 3G when you actually need it.

[HTC Rezound] bzooty:
A friend gave me his rooted Rezound after he upgraded to a new phone. The Rezound is running CleanRom Standard 4.4. I have a Verizon account with an unlimited data plan (which I very much want to keep) and I am wondering if Verizon will activate this phone on my account.

So two questions:

1. Is there anything technically preventing Verizon from activating a rooted phone?

2. If it is technically feasible, will Verizon just not do it because they're often a**holes?

Thanks for any info :o

Sidenote: I currently have a Rezound on my account. It has totally insane battery issues that my friend's phone never had. So that's why I'm hoping to use the same phone I love without having to go through the possibly lengthy process of refurbs.
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
The Rezound is activated by way of a SIM card. If you're just changing from another LTE phone, just pull the SIM out of the old one, put it in the new one, boot up, and done.
[HTC Rezound] bzooty:
Ah! So simple :) Thanks! I'll switch the SIM cards tonight. Sooooo very glad I don't have to deal with Verizon.

THANKS ALL!
[HTC One X] hamdir:
Interesting this video shows how much the one x has come along since release

For example game booster ultra mode switches to performance governor which used to only into 2 cores on ICS also with trips kernel 1500mhz offers full quad which is not the case on stock kernel

Game booster isn't different than our own free gaming boost app on the one x forum but this app is definitely more advanced than ours, the latest v2.0 is more advanced

Finally android revolution 18.1 is for some reason running nova 3 in full effects, something we are not able to do with the latest version of this game on other roms

Good combination plus some luck :good:
[HTC One X] Mantenner:
Thanks hamdir! I believe that the reason it runs with full effects is due to the 3-dot bar being enabled, i read that in another thread on xda about games by gameloft that had been modded to run with full effects, just thought i'd show my combo on how to play this and other games smoothely, it works quite well :D
[HTC One X] hamdir:
well not really the recent version of this game stopped working even with the 3dot menu trick, except ARHD 8.1 for some reason
[HTC One X] Arthas92:
N.O.V.A 3 get crash on ARHD 18.1 (stock kernel), flash blade 4.6 and it work again but not full effect
[HTC One X] Segnale007:
Oh wow instead to point people to the play store app page you rather promote piracy.

I see.
[HTC One X] Mantenner:
The app is payed on the play store, but i do not have money on the store to buy the app, so i pirated it, im sorry :( i plan on buying it as soon as i get money for online, im young if you could not tell, i would like to support the dev and get updates as well. Besides, if you do not want to pirate it, go get it from the play store separately, i simply showed my method of getting it as i could not find it originally from the play store, there was only the outdated version, so i went online to search for the update, i will look for it on the play store however and update the link in my video if you think thats the right thing to do :)
[HTC One X] Mantenner:
The link has been updated to the play stre link, it is also the newest version of the app, sorry for pirating, i will keep it in mind for future reference
[HTC One X] Arthas92:
finally i find out how to run it with full effect.

in build.prop, just delete the line:

ro.product.model=HTC One X

and enable 3-dot game will run with full effect(tested on trickdroid)

I know this post was from a long time ago, so I'm sorry to revive this one. But I do not have this model yet and I have the intention to buy it.

So my questions are:

1. For Xperia V, should be used the CA-157 cable or another one with an external power source to use an USB memory stick (I'm not referring to an HDD, which I'm sure is necessary an external source due to 1A current)?

2. Should be root-ed to be mounted an external memory (USB storage)?

as long as you have a OTG cable everything should theoretically work OTB
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ciubexx:
I asked above that because I tried to connect an USB memory stick to an Xperia Neo (MT15i) phone and without an external power, only mouses are working, was necessary to use an USB cable or micro USB hub with an external power to be recognized an USB memory stick.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] oddeceed:
