Yes, you are doing your best and I again thank you for your help. I indeed downloaded superuser (two different versions) and I am still not rooted. It's really OK. I honestly appreciate your efforts. It is just not working for this device. I can live with it. I am not complaining. It just isn't working on my phone.

I have successfully rooted and jailbroken other devices. This one isn't happening, so I am just going to move forward and use the device as is.

Again, thank you so very much for your help. Really. Have a great day, and I will continue to follow your posts and advice as I am not averse to learning new things (even though I am getting old, you can teach an old dog new tricks!).

No one has extracted a stock ROM yet? It would be really helpful not only for me but for other people having the same problem.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] fathertomany:
We can extract it but what good does it do without a custom recovery? We can use some of it to replace files that were removed and should not have been.

Do you think it would be possible to extract the stock recovery from the phone and make it into a flashable zip file? I was thinking I could try to flash it from fastboot.

Doesn't work

I tried this. It didn't work for me. When I finish the procedure it says "congratulations, your phone is now rooted" but it's not true. Both root checker and link2sd say I do not have root access. I have build V768 V.1.0.0B19, Android 2.3.7, Baseband version Pascal II B.010V0.0.1, Kernel version 2.6.35.7 + zte-kernel@droid#6. I did the boot-loop fix, tried different SD cards, factory reset, wipe data, did it several times, always get the same result. Any ideas on how I might make this procedure work so I can get root access? Thank you.

Hey folks

I searched for similar topics but nothing helped

When connected on my home wi-fi I can't download or update from PlayStore. But over other Wi-Fi Networks it works, like at friends home or at work. Also over 3G there is no problem.

When updating I get the notification "Update for "the app" could not be downloaded due to an error (927)

I tried the uninstall updates from google play services and data from dl manager method, wipe dalvik method, log out delete google account and relogin with the google account method. Rebooted router, checked for some strange settings... nothing helped.

Anyone got an Idea what could cause this problem?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] F3L1XZS:
Every time that I've had that issue, here's what I do. I'm aware you've tried about half of the things, but you missed a step lol.

1) Settings>Apps>Running Force Stop Google Play/Anything else tied to it (I usually stop all Google services)

2) Log out of your Google Account

3) Go into your app drawer, tap and drag the Google Play icon to the "info" to open up the info on the app.

4) Clear data and cache for the app, disregard the warning messages

5) Reboot device

6) Log back in

7)????

8) Profit

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pillzbury:
Just wanted to pitch in my two cents on my experiences with this problem:

I have a rooted Sprint Note 2 running CM 10.2. I had no problems with the Play Store when I first rooted and got CM up and running. However, I had to flash back to a stock ROM because of GPS issues. When I flashed back to CM (via nandroid restore), Play Store was returning the error: "Error retrieving information from the server [RPC:S-5:AEC-0]."

So I deleted Play Store data and restarted. Then, strangely enough, when I logged back in, the Play Store did not have anything in "My Apps" or "Installed Apps," and when I tried to download anything, now it was returning "download error (927)."

So then, I deleted Play Store and Google services data and tried again. No good. So then, I cleared the Play Store and Google Services data, booted into recovery, and flashed gapps again (e.g. a clean install of Play Store). Still got error 927. I then tried switching google accounts on Play Store - still no luck.

As I was still in the office at this point, I gave up and decided to go home to try later. When I came above ground on the subway, I noticed that Play Store was automatically updating some of my apps with no problems.

In conclusion, I have no idea which solution - or combination of solutions - worked, but the problem was solved. Here is a list of every step I took:

1. Deleted Play Store and Google Services data in Apps

2. Reinstalled the Play Store

3. Switched Google Accounts

4. Waited 30 minutes to try again?

Hope this helps for people having this annoying problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sdlopez83:
My problem wont be fixed with any of these as its 927 on all of my devices but sometimes after 11pm it works. and sometimes during a reset of my phone they will automatically download sporadically. Its google servers for me. To bad google's customer service is one of the worst i have seen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pablo1215:
I would have to agree I have the same issue and have had it since December of last year at least. I have an email thread that shows the ongoing issues and they have never fixed a single issue. I can't even load the play store at all now just get connection timed out retry and forget trying all the "fixes" because I have gone through hours and hours and tried every fix that anyone could suggest. For a while I was able to download successfully but not reliably and ONLY ON CELLULAR. Google servers even knew when I was connecting to another phone (using it as a hotspot) and since it was cellular it worked fine. But if I used a real landline wifi it would error every single time. I basically have given up and will not buy another app or even use my android devices and thankfully I have others to use since I work for a phone company but google is absolutely pathetic in this. Google's suggestion is they are working on it and there is nothing else they can do for me. That's fine if it was a few days or maybe a few weeks but this is well over 4 months and they are making products unusable.

Hi,i have an s3 clone it's the igds mkt6575

I'm writing in order to ask some help for the file "vold.fstab".

I've modified it and my phone is quite useless now,because it does not read the sd card

The problem is that i've modified (wrongly) both the file in the directory "etc" and in the directory "system/etc"

In both files i've copied those two strings (the other part I THINK is the same)

"dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard emmc@fat /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mtk-sd.0/mmc_host

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard2 auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/mtk-sd.1/mmc_host"

And i think thath that's the problem,i mean in the etc/vold.fstab maybe the code is differente from system/etc/vold.fstab

I'm disperate,please help me,maybe if you can paste the code of both files ...

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] stefano80:
All I can say is that when I replaced the screen for my i9305 they told me the part for my phone was a little cheaper than the one for i9300. And that was an official Samsung service center. I asked why and they didn't really know the reason. At this point I'd say they are different.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] jazzyman9182:
That's probably because they sell more i9300's than i9305's so they charge more for the screen to make money.

I did see one guy selling an i9300 screen on eBay because it didn't fit his i9305. Not sure if they just didn't know how to fit it properly or if they actually don't fit. I would think that they would fit because its exactly the same frame. Its only if the extra components need more space to fit in the phone.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] MobiFixSE:
I doubt they've been successful repairs that's went off without a hitch in that case..

The thing is the back of the screen on the i9300 and i9305 differs a slight, (i'm talking about the iron/steel bit on the back of a complete assembled screen) this won't accommodate the motherboard on the various units .. apparently the i9305 has a few more transistors or the like on the motherboard..

Example: i9300 screen assembly, i9305 mid frame..

The motherboard wont slot down properly, leading to the bottom left corner (Seen from behind) to not go down properly, which in turn leads to the mid frame siting a slight skewed, which also means that the battery cover won't fit properly, as the bottom left corner will be lifted enough to where it might fall off without much strain.

This is due to the the ironmolding on the back of the screen assembly being slightly different from the i9305 device, which fits the additional capacitors and so forth better.

,

,I can .. if requested provide photographs of the differences i'm referring to, as I've a number of screens in-house.

on i9305 the edges of the protector do not stick on the screen. and it now has a non pretty margin of unstuck plastic.

so i assume that there is a difference betweenthe two screens . some kind of curve is on ii9305 screen.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] jedikalimero:
We are talking about two different things here.

Some people are talking about the front glass. This is exactly the same for both models. The S3 LTE (i9305) is the same design but altered for 4G so the motherboard and some antennas have been altered and the metal frame and some other elements needed to be altered too to accommodate the alterations.

Battery and battery cover are also the same. Also the cameras, speaker, vibrator and wifi antenna. I'm not sure about the LCD screen and touch screen but I would say hey are the same too (I'm talking about these two elements alone, not the frame)

If you try to fit a regular i9300 front (frame, LCD, touch screen and glass) to a i9305 motherboard, you will find it doesn't fit perfectly. Main problem is in the different disposition of the big square chips in the motherboard side that touches the front frame. i9300 frame has a rim around those chips that touches the golden line in the motherboard that surrounds them. Just over the microUSB housing there is a part of that rim that enters the squared perimeter. That piece of rim has been removed so the rim in the i9300 frame will avoid the chips in the i9305 motherboard to fit there.

The lower left corner of the frame, near the screw hole, is also a little different, again due to an alteration in the rim.

Finally, the i9300 frame has a tiny metal bit in the very lower left corner, near the mic that avoids the plastic back middle cover of the i9305 to fit perfectly. that's because this cover houses at the bottom an antenna (I guess this is the 4G antenna) that is slightly bigger that the one in the i9300. You can think you could use the i9300 middle cover instead, but then you would be fitting the phone with a 3G antenna instead of 4G. what's more, this antenna has 3 points to connect with the motherboard while the i9300 antenna has only 2 points.

The reason the home button doesn't work is because the home button is not connected to the motherboard through the main connector but using two spots that you can see just over the mic white rubber housing. since the motherboard is not down to the position it should, it will not touch those spots.

Still, I believe there is a solution and it consists in using a Dremel tool to remove all the aforementioned parts of the i9300 metal frame so the i9305 motherboard and middle cover fit correctly.

Some precautions have to be taken. Covering the holes in the frame to avoid metal splinters entering the LCD circuits and painting the removed parts properly to avoid contact of the metal with the motherboard circuits.

I haven't tried it personally but I'm probable going to do it this weekend so I will tell you how it goes.

And next some pictures illustrating everything I explained:
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] ugly_bob:
Thanks for this, jedikalimero, this is exactly the information I needed.

In theory would it be possible to disassemble the entire front assembly of an I9300 to get the digitiser and screen panel out and attach to the front assembly of an I9305 so the gaps match up on the board?

Pretty much what I'm thinking of doing is replacing the cracked digitiser of an I9305 with the digitiser of an I9300. As you have shown, the front panel assembly would not be compatible, but I was thinking of disassembling the I9300 assembly and doing what I mentioned above.

I know the screen assembly is quite difficult to take apart as a lot of it is held together with glue rather than screws so it might not be worth the effort. Just thought I'd ask anyway.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] jedikalimero:
Forget it. It is practically impossible to remove the lcd and touch sensor from the frame without damaging them. Even removing the top Gorilla glass is a very difficult and risky task since it is fully glued to the touch sensor and this to the lcd and this to the frame. Not only the edges but all the surface. Samsung worked very hard to make the front assembly unrepairable.

You could buy just the lcd and touch sensor and put them in the emptied frame of your broken screen but you still have to save the touch buttons and put a new front glass. I've compared the prices of the lcd+touch sensor assembly and the prices of the full front assembly and it isn't worth the effort. Just buy a front assembly for your S3 LTE and sell the broken one at ebay.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Mkc2lr:
More simple...

I tried it a little differently:

Instead of removing the metal legs on the display, I put some clear tape on those areas causing a short on the mainboard. As this doesn't make the PCB fitting mechanically to the display, I didn't tighten the black center screw very much. If you then use a dremel for the midframe, everything works technically and also the gap on the left bottom disappears.

I was afraid of metal flitter in the electronics when cutting the metal legs. Obviously, the mainboard is very robust. Even tough I caused several times a short by the wrong display, everything is still fine....

Oh, I forgot to comment here but I finally tried the trick and I failed. Everything went as I expected except I accidentally damaged a track in one of the tiny chips behind the LCD and as a result, the touch sensor ceased working. The front piece I obtained fits perfectly in both models of the S3 and if it wasn't for this accident, it would have been a complete success.

Thank you all.

Due to all the information that you all have posted here I was able to recover a faulty I9300 (bad upgrade with bad memory, no recovery) and a screenless I9305 to make one working I9305.

The most dificult part was to know when there was enough digging :)

I already tested the phone, it is working. First I tested with isolation tape. Know I painted the parts and I'm waiting for the ink to dry. After I'll test it with a multimeter to see if it is isolated. Some of the paint fell of the board. I haven't yet turned it on. I imagine it won't be an issue, but only testing will tell.

Fingers crossed!
