that is just jibberish... no meaning at all. only thing that does make sense is "appartment", but it is mixed with Chinese characters... not Japanese. There was something like this that someone else had and my Chinese GF said that it was all gibberish too... so my bet is that it is just jacked up.

What do you want to do exactly???

Encryption

Anybody know if any of the proBAM roms support the encryption? im on 1.3.0 and when i try to encrypt it just shows the cute Puzzle droid and just goes in to sleep then nothing...i can press home and i get back to the home screen but the status bar is gone...so there is some kind of bug...

any ideas?

Has anyone found a ROM with functioning Google translate? Every rom I've tried force closes translate when you attempt to translate a picture. I think the problem stems from issues with the camera because the camera force closes by its self on occasion when taking video or pictures.

I'm borderline going to sell this thing and get a Nexus or something. Terrible battery life with aftermarket roms + various little issues = worst experience with an Android phone.
[Galaxy S III General] IparryU:
I recommend getting a Nexus.
[Galaxy S III General] Tengis:
I'm using Mokee now. Works fantastic besides **** battery (maybe 12 hours with very little use) and non functioning Google translate.
[Galaxy S III General] IparryU:

I am still on LK5 so did not have to flash is separately. However, based on user comments on 2ch, they were able to make FOMA SIM work with MA6, MB1 and MC3 updates after flashing the LK5 baseband. But I did not see any comments related to IMEI issues. But I do remember seeing something on the Chinese thread about IMEI (unfortunately even after Google translate I cannot make much sense of the thread)

Regarding service mode, it was not coming for me even after dialling the *#197328640# code on LK5 and I had to use SSM. I have another sc-03e which I had already updated to MB1 before doing any of the unlock/root procedure. Even SSM 3.2.4 is not working on that and FC everytime I try to open it.

So I am thinking about flashing MA6 stock from this thread, baseband LK5 from the chinese site and then trying SSM to see if I can unlock.
[Galaxy S III General] songs2009:
some questions about SC-03E

I want to buy a SC-03E, but it has no NFC, don't suport wiless chargesing

can you give me some advice ???
[Galaxy S III General] Robobob1221:
I think osaifu keitai with Id app or mobile suica is the closest you get to nfc.

I know vipsavior has followed a mod to allow for wireless charging over in the Japanese Note 2 thread, although it requires some manual hacking!
[Galaxy S III General] kizuki.buy:
I think it depends upon your personal preference for those functions and how you would prioritize over other functions. If you are living in Japan, I would say that osaifu keitai is pretty much what you will be using rather than NFC.

I personally was using GNex for past year and did not use NFC for anything except turning my wi-fi on/off while coming/leaving home.

The main reason that I got the sc-01e was for LTE. Added bonus was the h/w upgrade and Japan specific functions like osaifu and 1-seg. I am getting used to using the osaifu now and liking it.
[Galaxy S III General] s2k7:
Waiting your report of flashing LK5 modem.
[Galaxy S III General] kizuki.buy:
Hahaha.

Actually I am also constantly checking on the 2ch bulletin boards for some confirmation that LK5 flashing will not cause IMEI problems.

If there is a possibility of IMEI damage, I would rather pay Docomo 3150 yen for unlock since I need to use the phone in a country where IMEI is a must.

Regarding my own phone's (already on LK5 ROM) unlock, my mini-sim cutter arrived today and I tried one international SIM that I have. Unfortunately the SIM seems to be damaged. It did not work on the sc-03e and neither did it work on my unlocked GNex.

I now need to find an iPhone 4 / 4S user to test out my unlock.
[Galaxy S III General] s2k7:
unlock by LK5 modem

Thanx.

I Downgraded to LK5 and successfully tested a SOFTBANK iPhone sim card.
[Galaxy S III General] kizuki.buy:
So let me confirm,

1) You had a higher ROM like MA6 / MB1 / MC3

2) You successfully flashed the LK5 baseband on the higher ROM

3) You were then able to successfully use SSM to follow the unlock procedure

4) After unlock procedure, you were able to confirm with iPhone SIM that the unlock works fine.
[Galaxy S III General] majin:
I did find this... ServiceMode Shortcut (free)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kabasoft.util.servicemodeshortcut

Is it the same of SSM?

Unfortunately I have got the MC3 ROM from Kies ... so I can't see the "[4] NW Lock NV Data INITIALLIZE" too.

Anyway, do I really need to root my phone to get (just) the Network Unlock?
[Galaxy S III General] kizuki.buy:
On the LK5 ROM, I did not have to root to perform the Network Unlock.

I used this app for the Service Mode,

[Galaxy S III General] majin:
Thank you for your answer.

Yes, I did understand about that.

It seems that app works at same.

I'd like to know:

1 - IF it is possible to downgrade (also by Odin) from MC3 to the official LK5 ROM (to perform the unlock)

2 - where it is possible to find that LK5 ROM

3 - the "full" name of the LK5 ROM (to search more deeply on web)

4 - if I need to root for downgrading with an official ROM

5 - if I unlock the phone by DoCoMo shop and then I get a ROM update by Kies, will the phone keep staying unlocked???

Thanks
[Galaxy S III General] s2k7:
Yes.

1) I flashed MB1 with root at top page.

2)-4) exactly as you said.
[Galaxy S III General] majin:
I did find this Chiese website about SC-03E where I got the full name about the LK5 ROM:

SC03EOMALK5

http://bbs.gfan.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&action&tid=5808832

It seems they have "modem.bin" from LK5 ROM, usefull to make the Unlock procedure.

http://pan.baidu.com/share/link?shareid=267905&uk=218820144

If I'm not wrong, I need my phone is rooted and I have to use "EFS_Professional_2.0.20_Release" tool.

Right?

Someone more expert than me can kindly answer to me?
[Galaxy S III General] majin:
So, this is my experience:

I did flash just "modem.bin" (LK5) by Odin on my phone with official MB1 on board.

Then I performed Network Unlock / SIM Unlock with ServiceMode Shortcut (and I had no problem with the IMEI).

Then I did flash of MC3 Factory Firmware (stock) [https://hotfile.com/dl/200951447/ee2cb68/SC03EOMAMC3_SC03EDCMAMC3_SC03EOMAMC3_stock.zip.html] by ODIN.

At the end, I did "Firmware Upgrade and Initialisation" on Kies to get back any factory set.

P. S.

Is there any possibility to REALLY add/unlock some more UI Language on SC-03E???

"Set Locale and Language" and "Locale Settings" apps don't works fine for me.

I'm wondering, because DoCoMo XPeria has ALL languages melted inside.
[Galaxy S III General] kizuki.buy:
1~3. It should be possible if the LK5 ROM image is available. However, I could not find it anywhere (xda, 2ch, sammobile, web...). Build name of ROM is JRO03C.SC03EOMALK5

4. I do not think so if you are using ODIN. But I have not tried it yet, so not speaking from experience.

5. I checked this point with Docomo while getting 7.7 tab (SC-01E) unlocked at Docomo shop. They clearly mentioned that even with firmware upgrades it should not be a problem. Even if there is a problem, they mentioned that I could go back to the Docomo shop with record of the unlock and they would help me out (When GNex SC-04D was released, this was an issue where the unlock status would be lost with factory reset or ROM update)

Thanks, I already have sc-03e with stock MB1. I will follow the exact procedure as yours.

---------- Post added at 11:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 AM ----------

Thanks for sharing your experience.

Did you flash LK5 modem, on phone with stock MB1 or root MB1.

I think that the stock and stock based ROMs will only have English, Japanese and Korean UI languages.

There is a version of CM 10.1 floating around on 2ch for this phone. It might have many more languages and the ones that you are looking for. But I am not sure if it is very stable.
[Galaxy S III General] ussmeister:
Hi....

I don't know if someone already mention/ask about this.. (*so sorry if its already...)

I am having problem flashing CM11 custom for SC-03E.

I flash with the exact instructions, all done.

Except when reboot for the first time after cyanogenmode round animation, i got "unfortunately, com.android.phone has stopped".

Already try all the NIGHTLY version of CM11. Not one seems to work.

I don't know what is wrong with it.

Googling research about : com.android.phone has stopped, has give me some solutions, but neither works out.

Did somebody happen to have the same issue?

But my phone can not boot normal when i flash this image.

It look likes my mod have some errors, but when i try to unpack this system.img and do not Modify it then repack it and flash it to sc03e.

It's failed again.

And i have try to unpack and modify stock rom, it can boot as usual, Could you tell how can i mod this Rooted Stock image OR how can i root the stock image Manually.

Looking forward to your reply :)
