[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SaturnLS1:
Hello I just signed up because I'm panicking, I just tried to root my s3 and it is completely unresponsive now. It is just off like the battery is bone dead cant get into download or anything. I was following this youtube video up until about 2:25 and it never rebooted, just stayed blank. I've tried unplugging the battery and doing volume down home and pwr button and it does nothing. Is it toast or salvageable? I don't understand what I could have done wrong following the video exactly...

The video is the second one that comes up on Youtube if you search "how to root gs3 verizon" (I can't post links yet because I'm a noob)

I've looked up how to unbrick but all require you to ut it in download mode, I cant even get there...

Thanks for any help you guys have!

I posted this on s3 forums too trying to get help asap ;(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
Which youtube video were you following?

Not all root methods apply to all variants of s3's, there should always be caution to this. You can easily brick your device if you used the international root method or such.

The video is the second one that comes up on Youtube if you search "how to root gs3 verizon" (I can't post links yet because I'm a noob)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SaturnLS1:
and I have a verizon SCH I535 phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
What version were you? This seems to only work for early stage of the s3 with 4.0.4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SaturnLS1:
It had 4.1.2 just got it. it says 4.1.2 / 4.1.1 in the vid title so i figured that was applicable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Addiso:
Oh well I'm not really sure what video your talking about then since I got different results, might try giving me the exact name and uploader of the video you used to root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SaturnLS1:
after youtube/ paste this watch?feature=player_embedded&v=0qceE0a0PKg
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mentose457:
So, you get nothing when you try to turn on your phone? When you plug it into your computer or the wall does it charge? Did Odin say reset or failed or anything like that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SaturnLS1:
Nope it does nothing, just black screen. No vibrate, no sounds. Toast.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mentose457:
What did odin say? Rest, pass, fail? anything?

---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:45 PM ----------

If it is bricked then you could have this guy fix it. My friend had it done with his ATT S3. If i remember right it only took a week including shipping.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SaturnLS1:
it said pass then nothing happened.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mentose457:
Stupid question: Have you pulled the battery?

Did you accidentally place the file in the Bootloader or Phone section of Odin? If so then that would surly brick you phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SaturnLS1:
yes tried basically anything to get the phone to get to download mode pulling battery different combos of buttons etc no luck. and no I put it in the PDA section like the vid says.

what a fail this has been. followed a youtube vid when I rooted my thunderbolt no problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mentose457:
Sounds like your only option is to purchase the JTAG service from someone. Good luck.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SaturnLS1:
So I ended up taking the battery out for like half hour plugged it back in with the phone plugged in and got downloader back. I followed how to un-brick and I think I'm good now. Phew.... I don't know if I want to try this again. That was like 4+ hours of trying to get the download screen to come back. I'll stick with a stock phone screw that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] joebob296:
I would follow a guide on xda over YouTube. They are laid out pretty simple.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
Word of advice don't go to YouTube go here, rootwiki or any sites that gives you proper directions for rooting. I have rooted my phone seven months ago and never had problems with the original method when I had ICS nor the new method for jellybean.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SaturnLS1:
Thanks I'll follow the root guide next time. Maybe I'll try this weekend again. Will update.

[Android General] Nick Fury:
Hi all today I present you with NOT LAST SEEN for Whatsapp

In no way did I develop or create this app I am simply Just Sharing with you guys.

At last, you can hide the Whatsapp "Last seen" message! You will be able to use Whatsapp at any time and anyone will know it!

Thanks to this application no one will be able to see the last time you have used Whatsapp. However... You will be able to see your friends "Last seen"!

Enter to whatsapp as usually, block process is automatic. you don't have to enter to any application to block your last seen.

Important: While you are in Whatsapp you don’t received messages and you can write them but they won’t be send. When you leave Whatsapp or turn off the screen, your written messages will be send and your pending ones will be received.

The changes done to config Mobile Data are only notified when done from Android default menu.

Please use Android default menu to turn on/off Mobile Data(Settings->Data usage) while "Last Seen" are blocking, don't use widget or shortcut.

How does it work? When you are in whatsapp, automatically, your network is disabled to block "last seen" notification. Once out of Whatsapp(or turn off screen), automatically, your network is restored to the previous state.

You can see your friends "Last seen" while this application is enabled, just open the conversation of your friend, press home button, wait for some seconds and open whatsapp again!

No ROOT needed.

Notice

Please remember the following

1.I did NOT create or develop this in anyway I am just sharing

2.This APP is completely free and is not the same as the ones on the Google Play Store.

3.As this is not my work I cannot make any changes or improvements(Please dont ask)

4.If and when a newer version is released I will update the OP with changes and new download links

Thanks for reading
[Android General] zeratos:
So this thing disables the 2g/3g data when you open whatsapp?
[Android General] masukb:
no idea I will try..
[Android General] The Real NV:
Yes it turns off data connections, more annoying than useful imo.

sent from my GT-I9100 while using your sister.
[Android General] Nick Fury:
Yeah maybe but it could only be for a split second because as soon as you come out the app then data restored so maybe only a few seconds depending on how fast you can write lol
[Android General] oae08:
Why isnt this on playstore? Is there any alternative found on the playstore? I dont like downloading apps from outside :(
[Android General] Nick Fury:
This is not on the play store due to owner not wanting to place it on there with it being early stages.

Yes there are a couple (not many) on the play stire which kinda do the same thing but do cost.
[Android General] oae08:
Will wait until added to playstore then :)
[Android General] rlfy:
There's another app called "Whatsapp Shadow" that work the same as this in playstore. You may wanna check it out. I have tried both.
[Android General] oae08:
Didnt find the app your talking about.

I only found this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=es.paraisoft.android.whatshadow

I wanted to install the app in the op: but the permission :

Google Play billing service

Can i know for what it is?
[Android General] Nick Fury:
Its just verification. But you will not be charged ever for this.

If you want to restore to the normal stage.

Will removing this app do it?

hm.. wouldn't it be possible to send the special command to the whatsapp server to disable the "last seen" feature, like iphone does in its settings? so anyone with an iphone and network sniffer?

yeah i would really appreciate this methode.

[MENTION=225651]op[/MENTION] thx for the app. great idea but for me its not practically enough for the daily use.

i bougth this app a while time ago (it cost 1 dollar i think) and then when i did a wipe i try to search it but it wasnt on the play store anymore but thanks :D i was looking for this
[Android General] dtalwar14:
One pRoblem is there that I can't see others last seen as it's there in OP plz fix it
[Android General] VooDoo`:
:laugh: You can't see them, because you haven't a network connection if you open whatsapp... and if you have a connection, you will send your status.
[Android General] loginku:
I'm trying it right now :D
[Android General] kemihansome:
Does it also mean I ain't gonna charge and at the same time Last seen invisible?????

Why does the terminal chmod command only accept octal arguements?

Ex: "chmod +x filename.ext" errors with "bad mode"

but

"chmod 777 filename.ext" works fine.

Why can't the android terminal emmulator take alpha arguements?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
The terminal emulator emulates a terminal, nothing more. The programs you run inside decide what command line arguments they understand. In this case, the chmod command from Android understands only octal because it is not designed to be run by end users. Use the busybox version if you want to use the letters.

Hi,

Software and stuff:

JellyMod 4.0

CoCore 5.1

CRT off

4cyl Turbo 0.31

Lately I've been noticing that my battery has been draining like crazy, especially when the screen is off. I turned off wifi and put on airplane mode just to see if it was them causing it, but since 9:00am at 100% it's now 21:00pm and it's down to 58% after 0 hours of use...

Obviously something is wrong but I don't know what:(

Battery usage is 41% Android OS, 27%Android system, device idle 15% and some other 2-3% things

Please Help,

William

Try removing the 4cyl turbo script. Caused high battery usage to more users.
[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Choucko:
Ok I'll give that a go and tell you how it goes.

Edit:I installed the script and tried the others but nothing seemed to give me better results. At night with the same settings and no 4cyl I only lost 5%... Is there any way of getting this device to get better battery life. Google searches always give me results of stuff I already did... :(

Thanks,

William

Looking for advice on backend servers for games. I'm kind of getting confused at some options.

I have found products like Smartfox Server, ElectroServer, Photon.

Then some products like OpenFeint, Scoreloop etc.

Would I be correct in saying that you might use something like OF or SL WITH Smarftox or ES5 etc? I had thought originaly that openfeint/scoreloop were just platforms for scoretracking only.

Looking for a solution that provides support for realtime multiplayer, with game chat lobbies/messaging/ingame chat etc.

What is the difference between boost and Sprint roms? I keep seeing it around the forum, but just don't know the difference between them.

Btw, I do have a boost epic 4g touch running the latest version of goodness Rom, and which is amazing!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graydiggy:
APN settings and MMSC settings is all that is different if i am not mistaken.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Gray is correct. I have a Boost E4GT and flash Sprint based ROMs all the time. Reason being, there are not very many custom Boost ROMs or there. Once you flash, you'll have to change the MMSC URL to get mms to work. Get your msl code, type ##3282# in your dialer, edit, enter msl, others, mmsc url, change it to mm.myboostmobile.com, reboot, enjoy. Other than that, you can flash sph-d710 to sph-d710bst all day. And just confirmed yesterday, fyi, that you can flash Boost ROMs to Sprint as well. Hope this helps

Note-if you need to get your MSL, just search "get MSL." There are a ton of threads on it. Good luck!

Hi, I hate to ask so much of you people but it seems that rwiclo is down and I really need a rooted one click file. I really don't mind if it's ICS or JB, I just borked my phone up a wee bit and lost my ability to boot and go into recovery, so the only method I know of to fix it is to install a one click.

Hi all!

I bought an 3800mAh extended battery from aliexpress for just under 10$.

I must say that I'm amazed by the performance.

I have been using the phone heavily the past 3 days.

A little GPS navigation, talk time, browsing, etc.

Here's the link to the product and a few screenshots!

I use T-Mobile USA with the HTC stock 3.16 update from the UK which I applied via RUU.

I use Radio 1.13 from T-Mobile's latest state-side update.

My WCDMA works flawlessly. I have editted the radio configuration to use GSM (Auto PRL) instead of WCDMA preferred, but that is only becuase I prefer the extra battery life it seems to give me (I spend 8 hours a day underground in a concrete building with very spotty service). I'm not sure that it would make a difference though.

I know it doesn't match the radio versions you listed, but I figured it may help your situation anyway.

I tried clearing all caches dalvic and user to no prevail.

And the hard truth is all I want.

Isn't stock roms more stable?

Granted the customs which I am on now give me more options but theres a price it seems like battery, wifi or something.

Yes my wifi works fine but I flashed the wifi partions and followed every step to the letter in my install of my rom.
