[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HOUZEEE:
Guys, please help me :/
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
Looks like hardware failure to me, you have tried flashing stock Rom, did you factory reset after the flash?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
You will get no help by not following the rules and bumping posts .

You have no warranty.

Flash stock rom via Odin and read the return for warranty how to post .

jje
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HOUZEEE:
Well I can't see anything so no I couldn't do a factory reset, and I heard that if you got a Hardware Issue that you will get a gurante, is that correct?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
No.

Root or custom rom or certain types of damage void warranty .

Phone unable to power on then its likely that root would never be noticed .

jje
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HOUZEEE:
Well you can Power on it, but if you go into the DownloadMode you can't see how often I flashed my i9300 (or let's say you can't see if i flashed my phone), so will they notice that I flashed it somehow?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coeniel:
can you go into recovery by holding the power+ volume up button?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] kieranbass:
Hi all..I recently bought an XDA from an O2 outlet here in Ireland which I subsequently sent back due to speaker problems. Having waited two days for my replacement XDA, (in the interim I was given a Nokia 5110 as a substitute phone, I'm sure they got it out of a musuem..) I finally picked it up yesterday. The retailer told me it was a brand new phone and that it had come out of a sealed box. When I picked up the phone I noticed marks on the top of the aerial consistent with a fall or even with someone nibbling on it! I pointed this out to the retailer and was assured again that the phone was brand new. Giving the benefit of the doubt I brought the phone home, hooked it up to the PC and went to adjust the memory allocation as I was gonna transfer a large number of mp3s to it. Now the XDA I originally bought had 64MB RAM, the unit I was given as its replacement had 32MB RAM - so much for it being a brand new phone! Also the battery took less than 2 hours to fully charge - on my original XDA the initial charge took approx 4 hours with subsequent recharges taking about 2 hours, the same length of time my supposedly "new" XDA took to fully charge on what should have been it's initial charge.

At this point something a friend said with regard to technology popped into my head, call it paranoia but he is fully convinced that Ireland receives the rejects, previously repaired, or just downright faulty items of technology where they are pawned off as being brand new. My experience with this XDA seems to bear it out. I rang the O2 retailer back and informed them that the phone I received was not new and when I explained my reasons why, I was told that the phone was probably a new one alright but that it had just been sitting in its box in a shop and not sold, hence the 32MB rather than 64MB version I was given. It didn't explain the marks around the aerial or why the initial charge took only as long as a phone that's been in use before to charge.

Am I being paranoid here or are companies chancing their arm by sending units that are technically second hand to Ireland (or other countries for that matter) for resale as new units? Does anyone else have a similiar experience, not necessarily with the XDA but with other top of the range (and expensive!) products, technological or otherwise?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Nossie:
Personally I'd take it back and tell them where to stick it....

Even if it is brand new... you bought a 64mb XDA...

It does sound rather fishy though... I think you've got enough reason to be 'paranoid'.

ask them how a brand new XDA can have only 32mb of RAM... I doubt they'll be able to give you that answer...

I've heard on various occasions companies such as dixons selling 'brand new' hardware (computers in one instance) where the customer brought it home to find the previous owners information including credit card number and other sensitive stuff...

Its not necessarily O2 that are screwing you over... it could be their manager or area manager that’s trying to cut a little from their budget...

either way that phone certainly doesn't sound 'brand' new.... probably someone’s reject that took it back last year.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Guest:
Hello from Ireland

I had the exact same thing from O2 as well, you might have my old phone, I bought a 32mb one but the screen was scatched so they excahnged it again for another crap one, so I rang O2 UK and told them my worries and I got one sent fromt he UK, perfect and no worries at all. Its cheaper in the UK aswell. You are legally entitled to a full refund if it does not meet the standards you expected and was told about "not fit for the purpose it was sold" is the lawyers talk!! I spoke to a mate who works for O2 in Limerick (head office) and told me that they do actually refurb the phones. for returns etc. so I would demand a brand new one with 64mb and threaten them with vodafone or metior that will scare them!!

hi

you need to kick up a fuss e-mail trading, or. or europe and every one you can think of this is disgracefull dont take there c***
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] kieranbass:
Just to update you on my phone situation...having been told that my replacement XDA was a new unit I tried a few things to prove/disprove this...I backed up my calendar and contact info using Permanent Save and when I hit OK it backed up my info but it also restored the previously stored info on the phone, which, if as alleged, this phone was new then there should have been no such info already on the phone. Not to my surprise when I went into my contacts there were names and numbers that I did not recognise. I even have the home number of the individual who previously owned my phone! So what I'm wondering now is what to do next, who can I complain to and what will O2 do to compensate me for their mistake?

Also the retailer from whom I bought the phone left a voice message saying they have a brand new 64MB XDA waiting for me instore. It will be interesting to see if in fact the phone is brand new and not a refurb as Gary says is the norm for O2. Cheers for your tale Gary, I was contemplating getting a refund but I love my XDA and hopefully I'll have no problems with this next unit. Will keep you posted.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Guest:
Hi

Just to let you know the 32Mb model was released early, and was replaced by the 64mb model. There was an offer for o2 staff, including family and friends to purchase the 32mb xda for 99 pounds ( i did !)

I also recall that the o2 shops had a limited supply of 32mb xda (advertised as reconditioned) which they were selling for 99 pounds.

You may have got one of these phones. It may have been a genuine mistake from the store. However, they cannot give you a 32mb model in exchange for a 64mb model.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Nossie:
nice to see your retailer is offering you a 64mb one...

what happened?

cheers,

Ian.

I recommend using SuperUser by koush insted of SuperSU. I also made Super Boot to root stock ROM but I need someone with WWE HTC One...
[One (M7) General] torxx:
I added a link for koush's SuperUser
[One (M7) General] noob.fl:
hi

i done everything like its writen here, but i cant boot into recovery.. it cames the screen "entering recovery" and then the device is reboot :(
[One (M7) General] torxx:
Yes currently the recoveries are not working, be patient until they work, I will leave a note in the OP
[One (M7) General] noob.fl:
thanks for responce - i will wait :laugh:

ist there any other opinion to put the su binary into system? maybee with adb?
[One (M7) General] torxx:
adb can't write system on stock, you would need a modified boot.img
[One (M7) General] mike1986.:
I have modified boot.img but it's from .401 ROM. You want to try?
[One (M7) General] noob.fl:
im since a longer time no more so familar with htc... can it harm my device or it does not care and the one will run? if cot my one since to day, and its a damn expensive device to brick it at first time... but if it works - je i will try

its like all other androiddevices to flash? fastboot flash boot boot.img?
[One (M7) General] mike1986.:
There is no chance to brick but there is a chance for bootloop :)
[One (M7) General] noob.fl:
if got the softwarw nr 1.27.206.1 with kernel 3.4.10-g87f8d97root@abm013#1 - will it works with your 401 kernel?
[One (M7) General] vegetaleb:
Can you pull the system partition so we can enjoy some stuff from the One on other HTC devices?
[One (M7) General] noob.fl:
tell me how to do and i will share :)
[One (M7) General] torxx:
http://d-h.st/2DO

Unpack and run the runme.bat

Dumping may need a while, upload it to dropbox for example

Imho all devs should work together here instead of trying to be the first guy with a deodexed stock ROM
[One (M7) General] noob.fl:
:( these are just windowsfiles - does not working on my linux, sorry
[One (M7) General] simpelsense:
Do i understand it right i do not need to install recovery to get the system dump?
[One (M7) General] torxx:
Simply go to your adb dir and type that in terminal:

adb pull /system ./system

optional:

adb kill-server

7za a -tzip system.zip system\ -r (needs the 7za file)

rmdir system /s /q

to pack a zip
[One (M7) General] torxx:
no, all through adb
[One (M7) General] vegetaleb:
Using ADB (I assume you already isntalled it)

adb devices

adb pull /system ./system

adb kill-server

It will write it in your ADB folder
[One (M7) General] simpelsense:
thought pulling system is a little more magic. :D
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wapoo:
i bought my phone on 1st march and it was all fine (except the stamina mode led notification) until TODAY. I have experienced 2 sudden battery drainage on the same day and the battery can drop like 70% within an hr and the phone became VERY HOT. I have my stamina mode and location based wifi on.

Now my wifi and bluetooth is not working. I have rebooted my phone and switched off the location based wifi and trying to manually turn back on wifi and bluetooth but still failed! the wifi icon keep blinking but never able to turn on again. i also reset and erase everything of the phone and repair the phone once with the SUS. still NO LUCK!

I dunno if the abnormal battery drainage is something related to the location based wifi mode or the overheat killed my wifi or the wifi problem caused battery drain?. Has anyone experienced a similar issue? or just me? heres the battery screenshot.

- This is like an 'Open' MIUI, hard to describe.

Known Annoyances

- LED function key lights don't turn on, broken is a strong word, some circles would call it a feature rofl ;l

Instructions

Do a full wipe and install via the usual method in CWM or touch recovery, whichever you use

Big thanks to

Specifically every person here that does work on the Exhibit, from developing to just making constructive posts!

Especially Camcory, and all the source builders!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tquetski:
Misc Notes

Rom is pretty much finished; I modified the MIUI auto-porter for general use; assuming I did correct edits this should make maintaining all my ICS and JB projects somewhat easier.

...and will reduce the likelihood that I make a sloppy mistake with prep work.

Please leave feedback!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] KindleUser:
Wow. o.o Cool ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tquetski:
LED keyboard lights will probably be forever broke on this release until we get a BLN kernel, but I don't know enough about it to build one as of right now.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] smartguy044:
we wont ever get a bln kernel just fyi
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tquetski:
Yeouch, hahaha
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Leeblitz:
the led lights turn on when you press the brightness in the toggles..

its somewhat similar to one of the custom roms you made.. i think it was MIUI GB if i;m not mistaken..

hehe just saying what i observed.

but really cool rom though.. hehe.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] torch2424:
Oh snap looks amazing! Can't wait to try this, thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tquetski:
I'm going to try different bases to try to resolve the lights issue but I will be uploading a more 'polished' version of this rom momentarily, the lights issue in this build is related to the kernel and this phone is probably not going to get a BLN kernel ever so I must explore other avenues, but for now the rom is excellent in style feel and speed so the lack of LED lights isn't a huge deal
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tquetski:
Bump, LED Lights are broken but I've optimized this rom and added all missing things, outside of lights this is now stable
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
Well i'm trying out this ROM since it has some aspects of MIUI... so far I love how fast and smooth it is. I do miss some of the features of MIUI.. like mixing Themes.. (love the IOS Chat, IFEEL lockscreen, etc..)

I do love that I can do the status bar brightness slide, and the expandable notifications... I do miss the apps all being listed on the home screens... and on this ROM I can't find out to delete the unused screens... i'm curious to see how the battery life is on this ROM.

Thank you for all the hard work.

** UPDATE **

I wasn't able to download anything from the PlayStore (Including updates) (got an error code)

I also wasn't able to access the External SD Card with the file explorer... showed SD 0
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tquetski:
Do a proper wipe and re-flash; sometimes during the flash for any rom rarely USB mounting will not work; I don't know what causes this but this rom USB mounts for me fine.. I can DL playstore stuff fine too.

Also in 'Themes' there are multiple iOS themes lol
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
Thank you! and do I need to do the Stock Flash first to get the GPS to work? or can I just do the clean install like the OP says?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tquetski:
I was testing new versions of this and did encounter the exact bug you're talking about; I have no idea what causes it but when I reflashed AvatarRom after wiping it, USB mounting was working fine.

GPS is working fine out of the box, this doesn't use Baidu like MIUI for location services
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
I reflashed and I am able to download from the Play Store.. guess it was just a fluke when I first flashed this ROM.

Regarding USB mounting - I believe it was mounted fine the first time, but I wasn't sure how to find it using the stock file explorer you have on this.. so I downloaded ES explorer, and was able to see my external card.. so that works perfectly.

I look forward to testing this more and letting you know. Thank you for all your hard work and quick responses. I do love how fast and smooth this runs! I just hope the battery is good.. then i'll be very happy!

I did see that the texting bubbles are yellow ?! :eek: LOL
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
Are you able to lock the pull down on the lockscreen like it is on MIUI?
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] faroreefer:
WOW!

this rom is fantastic!!!! so smooth, themes are amzing! Love it so far. Nice Work!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Jaws4God:
I agree!

My assessment is:

PROS:

Smooth and Fast

Cobalt Blue Theme is awesome

Status Bar Brightness Control

Lockscreen is responsive and smoothe

So far everything functions properly

Love the App open and close graphic

Awesome Boot Animation

Toggle Buttons / customizable.

Lots of Ringtones / Notification sounds

Google Now works great

CONS:

Lockscreen is not truly locked - can still access the drop down notification bar

Themes are not mixable

Battery life - I put a fresh battery in at 10pm - at 6am it was already down to 89%.. by 8:00am after some use it was 81%

Unable to remove unused homescreens

Slightly longer boot time.

Odd yellow / green color scheme for text messages

Overall this is a great ROM! Thank you ! :good:
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Tquetski:
MIUIv5 coming soon? you bet
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Leeblitz:
This is what I'm waiting for. :D
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] :
I won't be fking around with porting it though, the option to do a build from Patchrom exists so this is the route I will be going; MIUIJB was quite functional but felt laggy compared to It's ICS counterpart; rather than screw with porting I'd rather be more direct so this will take significant time
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] :
Bump for new build; using new base all lag issues have been resolved; settings is now fixed and does not force quit; I've also added Sense5 Quick settings and Greenify for further lag reduction
