The GS5 better be something special if Samsung wants to keep people buying their phones. Its the same crap all the time, nothing new just some dumb eye scrolling, smart stay and a million toggles that we will probably never use. TW needs to be revamped and coming from 4.1.2 to 4.3 there is nothing special but maybe at times problems with network connections. But all and all I do like my GS3 but its time for a change. Its the same icons all the way from the beginning of smart phones and nothing has been new since then. We need a new UI and icons.

Hoping to get an honest answer, but here it goes anyway...

So in an attempt to re-flash the Root66 4.3 update on my T999L, I must have tripped the Knox bit because I now have the Warranty Bit: 1 marking and am UNABLE to flash anything in Odin.

Tmobile has decided to change the JUMP program on the 23rd, and allow upgrading whenever, as long as you've paid at least half of your device off and they'll cover the rest...I'm not here to debate that.

My question is regarding the warranty bit being toggled and such...Do you think that it will prevent me from being able to trade in my device at a Tmobile store and upgrade through them? Will I be stuck going through Swappa and buying a device outright from someone else? :confused:

its on sammoble

Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S5 at the Mobile World Congress earlier this week, but there was no mention of an all-metallic variant of the device. Earlier rumors suggested that the device would launch alongside the standard handset, and that it would feature a QHD screen and overall better hardware. However, that wasn’t the case as there was just one version of the Galaxy S5 that was ultimately unveiled. But recent rumors out of Korea coming from Samsung executives who were in closed-room meetings at the MWC suggest that the premium version of the Galaxy S5 is still on the cards, with the device likely to herald a new line of high-end devices under the Galaxy F moniker.

Dubbed Project F, the all-metallic version of the Galaxy S5 is said to feature premium materials and better hardware to the standard Galaxy S5. It might even launch with the rumoured 64-bit Exynos Infinity SoC that was set to debut at the MWC. Other features allegedly offered by this device include optical image stabilization, a feature that is missing in the standard Galaxy S5. Samsung is also said to offer the Galaxy S5 at a much lower price point to what it offered the Galaxy S4 at launch. If the manufacturer does indeed manage to do so, the move would further reinforce the future availability of a higher-end version of the Galaxy S5. All this is still a rumor at this stage, so take the information with the obligatory grain of salt.

Don't think anyone's gonna see this, but did anyone ever use the Symbian based Nokia phones? I used to own an N95 and I thought that was the most amazing thing in the world... and that was only 4 years ago. Much has changed in the smartphone world, hasn't it.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kingston73:
There are so many new things that will be released in the next few months I wouldn't bother getting anything now. Nexus 6, gs5, new HTC, LG G3 all will be released by summer. At this point even the note 3 is outdated. I'll keep my S3 until something amazes me.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cybok0:
You can root the s5.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
I'd not even remotely consider buying S5, unless there is a working Odin AND Custom Recovery without the Warranty Bit.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Its not a question of if you can root. Chainfire had it rooted a couple of weeks ago. With a locked bootloader you wont be able to use custom recoveries, kernels or roms such as aosp and cm.

Im not becsuse its not much of an upgrade compared to the Note 3 from what I understand.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
If its locked, cf auto root wont work. Doesnt necessarily mean there wont be another way. Unless im going crazy, people have been rooting locked devices for some time now.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Spot on. So unless there's a "Google Play Edition", you can say goodbye to AOSP on S5. But then you can also forget Unlocking from the Carrier as well. Even now T-Mo has difficulty unlocking S3 with the 4.3 Locked bootloader.

No you are not going Crazy. People did indeed Root other (Read non-Samsung) devices that had locked bootloader. Its just not a Noob friendly way.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Just checked over at the S5 forum and its been confirmed that Tmobiles S5 bootloader is NOT locked!

I have no plans to get one, but I am relieved by the news regardless.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Can you link or find more details if there's the E-Bomb err I mean E-Fuse ? Given both Note 3 and S4 have it, miracle if S5 didn't.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I'm sure it does. Dont have time to go looking now, but will check later.

The efuse is more a component of knox more than anything (as I understand it), and all new devices with knox will likey have the efuse as well.

I personally don't believe our S3's have a physical one (maybe newer models). Its more likely, imo, that its a software/firmware "fuse". I could be wrong though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
It was my understanding that the EFuse for S3 and S4 has been a Software/Firmware piece of code. It was introduced to accompany or complement the Warranty Bit.

Knox I was under the impression came into picture after the phone booted. Of course S5 may have everything on the motherboard. There's a nightmare.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
The efuse as I understand it is to break access to the knox secure containers. It being used as a way to void warranty via the warranty bit is a secondary use. I wouldn't call it a side effect though, as I'm sure it was specifically designed to do so. I could be wrong, that was just what I took away from my researching it when it was introduced.

I can't say 100% for sure, but the way I've seen it talked about on the Note3 was that it is a true eFuse, so I'd expect the same on the S5.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kingston73:
Seems samsung is hell bent on discouraging rooting and customization. I haven't really looked into any of the other forums but how is LG for rooting? My wife and I were at a tmo store yesterday, she updated her old iphone to a 5s and while she was doing that I was looking around the store. There wasn't a single phone there I thought was worth upgrading over my s3. I have 4.4 on my phone right now, it didn't seem noticeably slower than anything there. Really didn't like the LG flex, the note 3 seemed ok but kind of big for me and the s5 isn't anything. Sure, it's waterproof but my lifeproof case does that for me. Hope the nexus 6 is GREAT, or maybe the lg g3 whenever those come out.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
I have been debating this myself.

I never bought an LG due to their klunky firmware and so so hardware. But Nexus 5 changed that one. Given the systemic approach to rooting Nexus devices, I have a feeling LGs would be good ones.

I have heard time and again that the HTC engineers have been offering Bootloader unlock provided you give up Warranty. But then here on XDA, I have seen people mentioning that HTC is no different from Samsung. So makes me wonder if I should go to Nexus 6 as I don't care for Manufacture Bloat anyway.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kingston73:
I've been reading the lg g2 forum and seems like tmo is doing the same thing there they are with samsung, the g2 looks like a pain to try and get rooted and working with KitKat. I'm now seriously considering a nexus 5. I love my n7 and the ease of bootloader unlock and rooting so I think I'll like the n5. I might buy a used one if I can find one cheap enough, I'm definitely not using my tmo upgrade for it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
They did not go the same route with the s5. The bootloader is unlocked, just like all other samsung devices on tmo. Chainfire had it rooted weeks before it was even released.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kingston73:
Right, I know you can root the s5 but can it be reset if you need to send it back for warranty?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Nope. But if anyone ever finds a way, it'll probably be on the S5.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Wrong forum bud. Please go here.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kingston73:
I found a good deal on a used nexus 5 so I'll be selling my s3 soon. Some observations after a week with the n5:

It's faster in everything, internet, download, backups, booting...you get the idea.

The sound is at least as good if not better.

Easy, easy unlocking, rooting, and returning to stock.

Things I miss:

The home button, never realized how much I love it. The screen of the n5 ends up being slightly smaller than the s3 because the soft keys take up room.

The number of available cases and options, the n5 is pretty limited in the cass available. No otterbox, no lifeproof, a single trident case, and some tpu types. I'm surprised as I thought the n5 was relatively common.

Since I haven't used my Tmo upgrade I may buy something in the future but the n5 is a nice phone. Other than the home button I really don't miss the s3 at all.

Look for my s3 on swappa in the near future if you're looking to buy one, I'm including a couple cases and everything from the original box except the charger.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
You may want to Look for SoftKeys collection here on XDA. There are some very smaller NAV bar buttons available.

Hello everyone, I have tf300 with 4.2.1 rooted and busybox installed

It had been amazing but just today, I got a random reboot when I was watching videos with YouTube app.

This isn't a thread where someone goes "baaaaaaaaaaaa somethings wrong!!! Someone help" but I just want to know whether or not it's a problem with my tablet (maybe a bad flash or something) or it is an actual firmware problem.

Thanks!

I get it like you say randomly always when my tf300 is under load or after doing some activity. Upload, download, videos but your not the only one. Just got mine week ago go and updated to 4.2.1 right after got it so didn't know if it was happening on previous builds but im unlocked and not rooted yet but get it some times. Hope theres a fix for it make device hang once and a while too.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyokeun1234:
Yours seems to be worse than mine. I've been running my tablet on 4.2.1 for quite a time now but this is the first time... Maybe it is the bad flash. Used to happen on ICS on my first TF300 (Exchanged it). I guess I'll wait another day or so and see if the problem persists or it's one time thing.

Yea seems to be get it quite often not sure why.

Was printed already its only good for 7 days by the time it gets here will be no good. Figures. Would rather find a way to fix it maybe ill try a reflash like you mentioned.

Also didn't mention bought it as refurb which may have been the original issue prior to them reselling it. Who knows.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyokeun1234:

Your not the only one gonna try to reinstall the update when its a good time to go through the whole process of setting it back up. Was gonna root it any way so no point to get an exchange if can be fixed. If send it to asus theres a chance they can repair it and lose unlock bootloader and not be able to regain it happened to a couple people on here. When i try it will repost if anything changes.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aerdely:

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aerdely:
You to thanks wouldn't have thought of trying until talked to you. Pretty sure fixed it usually rebooted at least once if not twice a day. None yet today. Can actually enjoy using it now. Ota really screwed it up glad don't have to send it back to newegg. Although didn't sound like yours had as bad of issue should probably fix it. Good luck.

Trust me I've been testing it now that i got the shipping label need to know by monday if really need to send it back which would suck it's my only pc right now.

I got a random reboot today whilst going through the painful experience of browsing with this tablet. It took about 5 minutes or more to start up again and when it did, the system UI kept crashing which made the tablet hard to use as the message kept popping up. Thereafter, when i tried to reboot using the power settings, it froze. Very frustrating. I was able to sort it by holding the power button to turn it off and then turning it back on. It seems to work fine for now but it's something that shouldn't be happening. I'm stock and unrooted

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

This was driving me crazy until i realized that every time it rebooted automatic updates were running. Not sure how this happened, maybe corruption caused by play updates running when android updated. Uninstalling the 4 perpetually updating apps and reinstalling seems to have corrected the problem (or it's a lucky coincidence).

I was also having wireless dropouts, not sure how that would be related to updates but seems to have stopped now, possibly the updating process was spinning or using some other resource. I definitely recommend disabling auto updates and seeing if that helps.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyokeun1234:

I went through the issue tried reset, reinstalled android 4.2.1 pretty much anything can think of after reset would be good for couple days the back to random reboot same with reinstallation. Could figure it out but as i was also unlock via the app couldnt send it to asus because of warranty but luckly since had that issue plus hdmi and what may have been dead pixels not totally sure on that but something under the screen and the device was only 2 weeks old i sent it into newegg and they replaced it. Took 2 weeks the tested it etc but eventually got replacement with new warrant etc. Decided to wait till after warranty ran out to root again but if nothing works and are in possible similar situation just something to consider.

Bugs:

Missing HW composer.

Native USB tethering doesn't work. Use a third party app (tested: android-wired-tether).

The inbuilt Wi-Fi hotspot can be used only once, sometimes more, and after that a reboot is required to use it again. You can though use this modified version of android-wifi-tether, reboots are not required.

HD video playback suffer low framerate issues.

The 720p preview framerate is intentionally limited, especially while recording. The recorded video is (almost) fine.

There are some lags in the preview while video calling with the front facing camera

Poor bluetooth headset sound quality. (I don't own a bluetooth headset, hence it's very hard for me to find the problem)
