Yeah i flashed the one for my carrier. And i figured it would do the kernel, but just in case i tried flashing it separately....

and yeah i did try wiping the data/cache, but i will try it again.

and I could always try flashing another custom rom. Do you have any suggestions? i just want one that works quickly, is stable, and has messaging lol
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
Look in my sig ;) I don't give suggestion per say cause it's up to the user's preference but I'll always be running something that

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eternalcold:
I might try that one out. I was looking at some reviews, someone said there may be Bluetooth issues. I just bought the Moga, and i need BT to work perfecty...

Any input on that?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
That guy flashed the bootloaders. I'm not sure what the pictures are supposed to be but they don't seem to lead to anything.

My take on it: Don't play with bootloaders, it's the only way to really brick your phone (if something goes wrong that is).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eternalcold:
Understood, I wont mess with them.

I really just want to understand a couple things.

1. Why did the ROM I installed before work for everyone else except me? and i followed the instructions.

and 2. after flashing to stock, how am I unable to fix this?

mainly to just learn what went wrong.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
Sometimes the reason just...you had a bad flash or something broke down in there. I did the CF easy root method and flashed TWRP in goo manager and then started flashing. I've never tried the toolkit but like anything many times it just depends on the download you got or a bad flash. We've all had several...just hate when it involves rooting or using ODIN.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eternalcold:
Thanks,

Is there any way to repair it?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] eternalcold:
Alright, so....

I think i have figured out what the issue was. Or by random chance got it fixed.

I was going to try to install the Synergy Rom. And while going through the custom setup, i noticed "Install AOSP Messaging" and "Install TW Messaging"

I chose the TW messaging, and went through the rest of the installer.

For some reason i kept hanging at the "Samsung Galaxy S3" logo, and it would not boot.

(Honestly, i've used custom roms since the HTC Touch Pro 2, and i've NEVER had such issues. And i personally think the TP2 was way more difficult lol)

So I ONCE AGAIN flashed to stock. and randomly the messaging works!

I only can guess that even when flashing the stock rom, it doesnt change something regarding the messaging app. I'm not sure. All i know is that i'm on stock again and everything is working. I highly doubt i'm going to try another custom rom for a while until i have a full understanding of what happened.

But in case anyone else was having this problem, i hope this helped.

Great info. I am curious if their is a specific way you did it? I had tried that specific build, and got patching failed from apg.

THIS. very interested in 4.2.2. I am using the mysterious aokp 4.2.2 right now, and I LOVED pub, but I don't like downgrading. As frustrating as that may be sometimes... case in point, DANG I really miss AVRCP. driving around and my jvc head unit always says 'no name' :eek:

I guess my main question is why are more developers not integrating this into their roms? Seems like a valuable security enhancement.

(Please, don't get me wrong. I am not complaining, and I love and appreciate the work that goes into development. I am genuinely curious if their is some reason preventing integration.)

How do I run auto patcher on Win 7 without the ApG tool

Hi,

I downloaded the latest ApG tool from here: xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31648393&postcount=690

I had already installed the latest JDK/JRE along with Cygwin on my PC (with some help from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28196231&postcount=104).

However, when I run ApG, it insists on downloading Java and Cygwin once again! The total download it wants to make is some 250 MB. While the size of the download is not an issue, I do want to know why ApG is insisting on downloading something that has already been installed. Is there some mistake with my installation? Or has the ApG team missed out on this basic error check?

Apart from this, if I want to auto patch a ROM using auto patcher on Win 7 (WITHOUT ApG), how do I go about it? Like I said, I already have Java and Cygwin installed on my machine.

Would appreciate any help or guidance on this topic.

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethenexus:
Does anyone know of any other thread on this topic? I've not been able to find other threads in Q&A related to openpdroid.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linelock:
I think the reason the Apg tool downloads it's own copy of Java and cgwin is because it was designed to be a stand alone solution. I've been using it since it started supporting 4.2 based roms and it works great. Sorry I can't help with patching a rom without using the tool. It would probably be easier to install Ubuntu in a virtual machine than to figure it out using cgwin.

There is an openpdroid thread in the main android section of these forums. Sorry i cant get you a link right now as I'm on my phone and searching isn't really practical from the xda app.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethenexus:
I guess I'll just have to go ahead and let the app do its magic the way it wants :). Thanks anyways for your response. I did think about the VM solution, but that seemed not worth the effort. I'll post a better solution if I find one (on installation without the tool).
[Android Apps and Games] philippe734:
Hello,

I’m proud to share with you my little contribution to easily change GPU speed.

Intro:

In AOKP rom based android 4.1+, it’s easy to change the GPU frequency. Many devices are stable while GPU overclocked.

To change GPU speeds simply edit /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_oc

Values:

0: normal frequency (for example, 307 Mhz on some devices)

1: medium

2: high (for example, 512 Mhz on some devices)

But, it’s not my goal to discuss it.

My app:

Here is my app to select GPU speed on the fly (normal, medium or high).

This app need root and secure settings plugin (from google play). Write in system need root.

The app change only the value in the file “gpu_oc” with 0, 1 or 2. The design is simple, don’t blame me.

If I helped, then press my thanks button

Before use it, go to edit the following file to check value:

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/gpu_oc

If there is 0, 1 or 2, then you are able to use this app. If not, or if the file is missing, then don’t use this app.

Use this app only with AOKP rom based with Android JB 4.1+

Some devices can't handle GPU overclocking well and might freeze/reboot and it may be necessary to adjust voltages.

After GPU OC, if your device freeze, just reboot and GPU will not be overclocking.

Use at your own risk, I’m not responsible of any damage on your device.

Required:

- AOKP rom based

- Android JB 4.1+

- Secure settings plugin from google app store

- File "gpu_oc" here in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq

If you tried on other rom and if it worked, then come back to tell me.

Downloads:

Click on attached files below to download the app : GPU_OC.apk

>>> To test GPU speed, use nenamark2 from google app store.

Doesn't even ask for root access. Its either fake or poorly wrote.
[Android Apps and Games] jayRokk:
If you don't have anything positive or productive to say about the app don't say nothing at all

Don't listen to this guy

-App DOES ask for root permission

-I checked /sys/devices/system/CPU.... And its written like it should be.

-Ran a benchmark on my GS3 before usage , ran it again with higher scores... So it does make a difference.

Device: ATT GS3

ROM: AOKP 4.2.2

no OC or extra kernel features.

Thnx for this app
[Android Apps and Games] philippe734:
My app use the app “secure settings plugin”, which need root to write in system. So, in fact, my app need root.

1.4ghz with GPU 2 = 35.2 fps

GPU 0 means 300mhz

GPU 1 means 384mhz

OK so this is a good one, and i feel this needs some attention.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy Nexus provided by Sprint ( NO PHYSICAL SIM CARD IN THIS MODEL) sprint doesnt use SIM cards in most there phones currently.

Problem: Phone displayed message "SIM card is PUK locked, Please enter 8 digit PUK Code to unlock. contact sprint for details". i browsed sprints forums and found a few posts of codes to attempt. Only so many codes may be entered before the Sim Shuts its self down for good. now the phone was displaying across the bottom at lock screen "No SIM card:sprint" (yes i confirmed and double checked there is no removable SIM card In the phone or under the battery). so now the phone service is limited. no mobile data is usable and phone calls often were dropped with "NO SIM CARD" error.

Rooted Status: phone was Rooted and custom rom JBsourcery was currently in use. prior to seaking sprint store for help. i went ahead and did a full restore using Nexus toolkit application to Flashback stock OS and lock boot Loader so warranty would still be eligible.(note this flash back did not recover sim error)

What i tried to fix the error: Flashed other custom roms, as well as a stock rom later on, Factory reset both done by Team Win Recovery Project, and factory reset done with stock Recovery after i restored phone to stock, Wiped Cache and Dalvik. No use off to the sprint store

Sprint Store Diagnosis: showing them the "No SIM Card error" gave them a good laugh. the store tried there version of full reset. No fix here. associate called Sprint Tech support. they were stumped as well and simply replaced.

I got new galaxy nexus

How did this happen/ What caused it Yes! i have the answer for this believe it or not. i just couldnt find a fix. once the galaxy nexus is Rooted and so far custom roms i can confirm have this Feature. ROMs included are: JBsourcery for nexus 4.4 and 4.5, And the 4.2.1 stock rom available on Galaxynexusroot.com. i assume this feature is thrown in because the roms are universal for Sprint, verizon, and GSM phones. therefor if you have a Sim card you can edit your sim card lock.

In my case, for my sprint Nexus under Settings> Security= this list has an added toggle "set up Sim card lock" of course my curios mind checked into this. little did i know that as soon as you trigger that bad boy. something in the phone changes Permanently .

as i stated i did get a new phone in exchange for this error, and of course i rooted again and flashed the 4.2.1 rom and this setting is back again. as so long i dont touch it. there will be no issue. however, i think this should be looked into and possibly removed from certain roms specific to "SPRINT" lol as we dont need it. also maybe look into a way to recover from this scary phone breaker. i dont beleive i am the only one who did this. there will be more so long as there are curious minds out there who Root and custom rom flash. thanks guys

You can try downloading lux from the play store and see if that works. It can tell you how much light your ambient sensor is reading. If auto brightness works with lux, it's a software bug so flash a custom rom or re flash your rom. If lux says your ambient sensor doesn't read different values, you probably have a defective sensor.
