[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elementalfx:
Actualy i only have 16gb class 10 microsd and swaping internal memory to external wont do big difference. Better solution would be to configure system like if internal run out of space then apps will be instaled to external microsd. Or just bind appdata to external sd. The bigest files are gamedata especially from gameloft and so on. I was trying to do it with bind directory app but it just refuses to bind gamedata. Can it be because of OS not allowing to write on external? Possibly because of init.d ?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elementalfx:
Ok so far I was finally able to use dirictory bind app properly. My internal memory is now freed from big game datas. Finally. But now I will need to move apps to sd. So far 10 gigs for apps is enought for now but I will see later. But at least big datas are now in microsd. It is sad that samsung didnt put ability in ther rom to move apps on sd. I have tried cyanogen mod nighty 4.2.1 which is very good i like concept of multi user but I am missing features from stock firmware that are not available in cmod. I hope that samsung will release update to 4.2.1 and multiuser feature will be the part of stock firmware and I hope that it will contain move app to sd feature aswell.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VandVisX:
UPS says my new N7 3G will be delivered today and I just wondered whether I should go through the process of activating it before I root it? Will I need to activate it again after rooting (since all user data is lost)?

FWIW, I'm planning to root using the techniques in this thread, CF-autoroot.

Any suggestions or warnings would be appreciated.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GedBlake:
Hi, VandVisX...

I would tentatively suggest 'before'... certainly unlocking the BOOTLOADER first... (You can root anytime after).

fastboot oem unlock

Which essentially performs a factory reset... you will have to re-enter your WiFi key, Gmail account settings (for PlayStore purposes)... and any other settings.

(Any media currently stored on the device... pictures, music, videos, documents... will all be lost).

You can root (and unroot... and then root again, should you so chose, pretty much any time you like... and as many times as you like, without effecting your settings or Google Play Store Apps... or your pics, videos or music files).

BUT IT'S UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE FIRST... BEFORE YOU SET ANYTHING UP... (or you'll have to do it all again... afterwards:().

Rgrds,

Ged.

Hello. Today I installed on my phone, this application - Android Tweaker (pro version) - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.igio90.androidtweaker.pro, and I checked a lot of things in this application ...

Please give more details..

I'm assuming you are on official Samsung rom.

Try going to recovery and wiping cache partition.

If doesn't work

You will have to flash a new firmware... And yes you will lose data doing this.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Extratozoid:
Solve is this:

Download odin, siyah kernel for s3 and aroma file manager

Flash siyah kernel with odin (read on google how to do.. is really easy)
And move aroma file manager to your sdcard

Boot into recovery and mount system and emmc partition

Flash aroma file manager and navigate to /system/ than open build.prop with text editor, scroll down to the bottom and remove all the lines followed by *** by android tweaker

Also move to /system/etc/init.d folder and remove all the files inside....

Phone will be back without any data loss

But I have a problem .. EMMC partition function not found in recovery mode and did not find init.d folder.. I did mount system only because other function not found. Do you have any idea how it works with eMMC partition?

PS: Sorry for my english ! :)

@jumbobombo : yea, i'm on official Samsung ROM - I9300XXDLIB , and does not work with the cache partinion

@corrsea: I have important files on the phone .. I can not afford to lose them. That's why looking for another solution than reflash, because that I could do much time.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corrsea:
If you use a cwm flashable version of your rom and flash it without doing any wipes it should just install over your current rom without losing anything. It will only reverse the tweaks you have made in build.prop and init.d. etc

just reflash whatever ROM you had before, not a different one.

flashing the ROM doesn't touch the data. don't touch any options in Odin
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Extratozoid:
I asked for the look, the tutorial says otherwise:

Step 1. Download Kies and install it, if you don’t have it already. This will install necessary drivers. Alternatively, you can also download the drivers directly — download from here: 32 bit (x86) Windows | 64-bit (x64) Windows. Sorry no OSX support for Samsung drivers.

Step 2. Download the firmware: Download XXDLIB | Mirror | Filename: GT-I9300_XEO_1_20120922093900_w8pdod73hi.zip [Intenational i9300]. If you’re on T-Mobile download this ROM [SGH-T999], Sprint ROM [SPH-L710]. i9300T model is tuned to favour the 850mhz band. There is a difference in hardware but very minor. Other than that they are the same.

Step 3. Extract the GT-I9300_XEO_1_20120922093900_w8pdod73hi.zip file on the computer to obtain a file named I9300XXDLIB_I9300OXFDLI1_I9300XXDLIB_HOME.tar.md5

Step 4. Download Odin3 v3.04. Odin is required to Flash firmwares, kernels to samsung phones. Extract and Run Odin executable

Step 5. Switch off your S3, then, put the phone into download mode. You can put S3 in Download mode by pressing these keys together: Volume Down + Home + Power till the screen turns on. Then press Volume Up to enter download mode.

Step 6. Open Odin by double-clicking on the Odin3 v3.04.exe file obtained in step 6 after extractingOdin3_v3.04.zip.

Step 7. Now is the time to attach your phone via USB cable.

Step 8. Click on the PDA button in Odin, then browse to and select the I9300XXDLIB_I9300OXFDLI1_I9300XXDLIB_HOME.tar.md5 file. Leave other options intact. Do not modify other options.

Step 9. Click Start button and flashing would being. You will soon see a PASS message in green. Your device will reboot, and when you see the Samsung logo, you can safely unplug the cable.

Step 10. Now the Phone should boot normally. If it gets stuck for more tha 10minutes at boot log, do the following, else skip:

Boot to recovery mode — for which, first power off phone (by removing battery and reinserting it), wait for 5-6 seconds, and then press and hold Home + Volume Up + Power keys together till the screen turns on, then let them go to boot into recovery. Once you are in recovery mode, use volume keys to move the selection up and down and home/power key to select the option.
Go to Wipe data/Factory Reset and select it. Select Yes on next screen.
Then, select reboot system now to reboot the phone, which will now boot properly.

Voila! You’re now Running Official Android 4.1.1 on Galaxy S3. Enjoy the butter smooth experience.

Glad to hear that you're back in action:)

I would strongly advise that you flash a recovery, either Philz or TWRP, and get into the habit of making nandroid backups.

If you want to tweak your phone find a custom rom and Kernel that suits your needs.

Avoid apps or scripts that you don't understand how they work

As to your sound issue my best guess is that you either have driving mode switched on or something like talk back on in accessibility options.

Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 Won't Boot. It Stuck at the Samsung SGS I9300 Logo

Hello All,

How are you all? I hate to do this to you all and i apologize profusely if it is a waste of your time. I have tried everything that i can think of but no joy so far.

I was on Android 4.3 when the phone went ape. It just happened out of the blue.

I can't do a factory reset through recovery mode. Also, i can't recover the firmware using Odin either. It failed every time with a write won't start error. I also tried to wipe the cache through recovery mode but it also failed.

I went through the threads looking for more info but getting frustrated with no fruitful outcome.

I tried a full firmware recovery using the below using Odin 3.04

Firmware downloaded from Sammobile.com

Model: GT-I9300

Model name: GALAXY S III

Country: Ireland (Meteor)

PDA: I9300XXUGNA5

Also tried the same (Full firmware recovery) through XDA but missing the PIT file from package.

Does anybody know how to fix this once and for all?

I can't do it through recovery mode as nothing works in there. My only option would be the download mode using Odin

I need all files (PIT, PDA, PHONE and CSC)

Does anybody have a link for a working full package that i can download for Ireland (Meteor, eMobile)

I would be much obliged to you all and thank you so much for your time and patience in advance.

You can never fully go back to factory condition. If you are unlocked it will never receive official updates again.

Just wanted to share this find with you guys. It can rotate the phone 360 degrees and can swivel 90 degrees up/down and left/right. The joint/hinge it rotates/swivels on is not loose at all and has a good amount of resistance. It has a very strong grip when on the windshield. It claims it can also mount to a dashboard, but it does not stick very well for me. I used some double-sided tape and now have a perfectly good mount right on my dash. Not bad for $3.

What is the process of re-installing for Recovery? Is it MTP or the Google Driver that need to be installed again?

Recovery Mode only requires the Android Composite ADB Interface drivers. MTP serves no function while the tablet is in Recovery Mode. For install/reinstall instructions, read BluechipJ's Automated ADB Driver Installer for Sony Tablet S and P post and be sure to watch his video, that's where he describe how to manually install the drivers when they fail to install automatically.

Hello guys what do you think which is the best governor for battery life and performance with ROW I/O scheduler? SmartassV2 or Lulzactive? Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Kreaz:
Actually, it depends, on you.

I can't say SmartAssV2 is the best vice versa. Because even if we have the same type, same ROMs, and same apps, and same usage. There will be a difference of how we feel about it. You'll have to try those 2 all by yourself.

As for me, I use SAv2.. It seems lulzactive didn't go well with me.

--Ancora/CM9RC4--
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] reddvilzz:
For me, i prefer on smartassv2 because some lulzctive in the governor of wonder are less tweaked than smartassv2 that is for my opinion though.

If i'm not mistaken custom kernels on wonder default governor are most likely smartassv2, why not lulzactive? Because maybe is not ready yet or not tweaked enough to beat the smartassv2 for now.

This is just my opinion though.
