ya, numerous time. I even installed the s3 toolkit and did it that way w/out prevail.

my brain is fried. and I need my phone for my business.

cant afford another one
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
what version
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
4.1.1

sry, thought i put that.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
no, i mean what version of cwm. i'm curious. i'm also seeing if i can find anything that may help
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
o hahahah.. sry hence the fried brain :silly:

5.0.2.7
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
have you tried going into mounts and storage and mounting the external sd card?

is this sd card reading on your computer and/or other androids? if you had an S3 previously, did it work on that?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
I have tried, this sd read on my other androids. this is my first s3.

When i select mount external it gives me the option to unmount it, but doesnt say that it's mounted in the under bar (or whatever the area that shows it's called) so im assuming it's mounted. The problem is that I put the roms in the download file on my computer and when i put the sd card in my phone and mount it, it doesn't show up there. Am i using the right roms? I did not unzip them to the sd, just transfered.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
when you first boot into cwm, do you see the option to install zip from external sdcard? and yes, you dont unzip roms
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
I knew u didn't unzip roms, Just double checking.. ;)

I do see the option to install zip from sd.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
and when you select install from sd card, there should be an option to choose zip from external sdcard at the bottom. selecting that will bring up all the files on your external card. you able to see those?

---------- Post added at 06:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

if so, dont flash anything yet. let me know. the 2 stock ROMs you have are old (4.0.4). you would be reverting your firmware
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
As of right now, my phones not even turning on.. idky the battery is drained. I need to let it charge up a bit before anything. :-/

The last time i did that it brought up all the files and the roms were not on there. maybe because they were ics instead of jb?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
in the meantime (as your phone is charging), download these 2 files and place them on your micro sd card:

- cwm 6.0.3.0

- at&t 4.1.1 rooted firmware

when the battery is ready, install the micro sd card and boot into cwm. see if those 2 files are listed. keep me posted
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
k I'll let you know. Thank you
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
Nothing..... We shall now label this chapter of s3 history as romulitus..

fml

I just got off the phone with samsung and they will take the phone and repair it unless there is water or physical damage which there is not. Hopefully they get it done. I'll keep you posted.

Thank you for all your help. I know your just as baffled by this as i am.

:confused:The uncurable case of romulitus:confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
nothing? like those 2 new files you downloaded dont show up? but other files on it do? did you tell samsung it was rooted?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
its not rooted. thats why i'm confused on cwm being on it. I didn't put it on nor have i done anything custom to the phone. i think att screwed up the refurb or something.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TeknoGodz:
When Samsung sees cwm they're going to charge you for repairs. If cwm is on it it's been rooted. It may have been returned to a stock ROM but it has been rooted at one point
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] RomulousV:
I'm hoping not. I explained the situation to them with it being a refurbished phone and all. I let them know I couldn't connect the phone to my computer. Hopefully they'll understand lol. The situations looking bleek but it's worth a shot. I can't do anything with it :-/

Hi Peeps,

I have searched this forum and the Internet and have found loads of info on problems with the Sandisk WIFI and D-Link routers (54G) and some have found workarounds etc.

My Linksys WRT54G (54g) (mixed mode) is not accepting the Sandisk 802.11b and I wondered if anyone had a workaround or experience of this.

It also makes me wonder that as community hotspots upgrade their routers to 54g (mixed mode) more and more of us are not going to be able to get on with our Sandisk cards.
[Networking] simbo:
I have tried on BEF11S4(B) and WRT54G(G) both work fine...

Try update the rom for Linksys Router or set the speed to "B" only and try.;)
[Networking] bozy:
I've been using SanDisk Wi-Fi with Linksys 54G, firmware v1.06, Feb 18 2003 and I was ONLY able to connect after setting channel 6 on the AP. Same happened to 3com 3CRWE7254G PCMCIA card. Don't know why it's so, as at home I am able to use any channel with 3com OfficeCOnnect 54G AP..

Hi Guys,

I have updated the firmware : v2.02.2, Jan. 6, 2004

WOW, the interface has changed and I now have the new 256bit WPA :)

However, I still can not connect :( I have tried B mode only .... now available as an option :)

I do not use WEP or WPA only MAC address. I did read somewhere that a WEP key was needed regardless....

Any thoughts ? ..... cheers
[Networking] 2GMario:
im not to sure about the sandisk wifi card, because i dont have one

but last week i did upgrade my home network to the new equipement from netgear

all my wireless pcs worked fine except for one

make sure the channel is set correctly

mac address shouldnt be a issue unless ur trying to setup a bridge

what got me was the wireless card in the laptop had a hard time switching from the old access point to the new one. make sure ur SSID is set to what ever the access point SSID is

regardless if the access point is set to broadcast or not (means itll send out a signal lettings pcs know how to reach it), they need to match to connect.

none of my pcs require WEP unless i turn it on, but now that im at 802.11g and not b, i think i might turn it on till i take a laptop and start walking around outside to see how far it reaches :)

hope it helps

-Mario
[Networking] fishmedia:
Cheers Mario,

The XDAII see's the network SSID, and says 'available' when it tries to connect it drops back to available as if it can't get on ... almost as if the MAC address was wrong (I have checked :) )

When I go home my Belkin 802.11b router is picked up instantly, so I know all the settings are OK.
[Networking] 2GMario:
I found this today

http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/69/35986.html

ita a article on incompatibility between different wifi vendors, might wanna read it really quick

other than that, basic trouble shooting says...

whats the difference between your home network and the one you want to connect to ?

Do both have dhcp setup and working ?

does it not work with web or have you tried AIM, msn messanger, telnet, etc... ?

are you able to ping a server from the xda2 ?

alot of this will oviously be based on what programs you might have installed. not sure if / or what a good telnet program for ppc would be

a ping test might give you a good idea if your being assigned a ip address, but just cant get to a web address

have you tryed changing what wifi standard your using ? on my new netgear, i have the option of b , g , b and g, 108mbps (specific to netgear i think) and 108mbps auto sensing

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Stockmoose16:
I had a problem when I upgraded to 4.1.2 on my rooted 4.1.1 Razr HD Maxx. I followed the directions from the following post, and was able to reinstall 4.1.2 via fastboot files, but for some reason, Root is gone. The poster said the fastboot file would give root. Any ideas on how I can fix this problem?

You need to update to 4.1.2 using that factory fastboot files and then root again. I did the same and it made a noticeable difference in how my phone ran. I'll get you the windows link to the files. If you run Linux I'll have to upload what I've put together. Its based on mattlgroff HD utility but updates you to 4.1.2 and roots it.

Link for fastboot files. Install rsdlite and the moto drivers if in windows.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeyinid:
Lol. This is hilarious. Read what I posted again. I didn't say you would be rooted after fastboot flashing. I said clearly, as you quoted, that you would have to reroot. Its obvious you should use Google before you start your next thread ;)
[HTC Droid DNA] phuckwithfire:
Is it available for the DNA? I could go for some simple until a fully-functional CM drops.
[HTC Droid DNA] KyJelly69:
No. Cm is vanilla android for all intents and purposes. Cm is aosp (vanilla) plus cm mods on top. But they have to build aosp first. So basically if aosp was working so would cm.
[HTC Droid DNA] atishpatel2012:
yeap...you can get themes that look like aosp but cm 10.1 hasn't finished so thats a no go sir. good news is cm 10.1 has almost everything working...no camera, bluetooth, and gps but other stuff works. look under the original development and you'll see the thread.
[Java for Android App Development] wipkiko:
Hello,

A friend of my asked me to create a simple button on his Galaxy S 2 home screen,

that will simultaneously turn on bluetooth and GPS, and will start his navigation program (e.g WAZE).

I wondered what is my better option for doing so - writing a simple application(i'm familiar with java) or creating a simple mod for his ROM (which I have no idea how to do, but figured It's time I learn to anyway..)

So what i'm asking is, actually:

1. Can I create a simple java application that turn on bluetooth and GPS on his phone, or is it restricted?

2. Is creating a mod that allow these option from the notification bar is complicated? what do I need to know for doing so?

3. What do you guys find as the better option - creating an app (and maybe a widget) or creating a mod?

thank you all in advance...

I would appreciate any help

-wipkiko
[Java for Android App Development] patedit:
Since your friend is asking for a shortcut to do three tasks (enable BT, enable GPS and open an app) I would create a widget directly. I would not mess around with mods.

There are no restrictions, you just need to add the permissions in your AndroidManifest file :good:
[Java for Android App Development] pistons9876:
Definitely agree with patedit,

Custom roms are not terribly hard to make, but android has exposed the widget sdk exactly for this purpose. Unless you absolutely need to place the button in an extremely exotic location, you should write an app.
[Java for Android App Development] rexes13:
The easiest way to do this is to create a widget! It will not take you long enough to learn how to make one but it won't be easy too!! Don't mess with mods just create a widget :D
[Java for Android App Development] Yordi Pauptit:
The disadvantage about creating a mod for his ROM is that he would probably have to flash it. This way it's also not as easy to uninstall the "widget".

In short, definitely the widget.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] mastrv:
Why do you think the bootloader is locked?

I believe the code that was being provided was for the carrier networkt and it was limited to certain carriers/countries. That's my understanding.

Are you trying to load a new/different rom? Are you able to get into fastboot? What happens when you try?

There are good instructions on loading recoveries and roms. What have you tried and what issues did you run into.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] mastrv:
Ok. Just checking. I've never seen or heard that any mediapads have bootloader locked.

Something to watch out for if/when buyng mediapad.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Kuoting:
I know c235b001 this version has locked

but, Android4.0,C232B005,General Channel

this version no locked.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] danisukses:
i heard from my friend that service his mediapad to the service center because its drowned. it seems that the new "board" with different IMEI comes with new "locked" bootloader. and i think the solution is to flash it with old honeycomb or old ICS version. i dont know if it works or not but i think it will works.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Raithlin:
I also have this problem - the device came with an unlocked bootloader, but the latest updates have locked it! To make things worse, Huawei has removed the older files from their site.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neverone:
It seems that our phone market here (in Croatia) has recently been updated with some brands i haven't seen before - Gigabyte and Prestigio. I know them as tablet and/or computer peripherals manufacturers, but i haven't really known that they also made phones.

My friend bought a Prestigio phone a few months ago and he is satisfied with it, although i can't get any detailed infos from him since he only uses it for calls and angry birds when he's on the toilet ;)

Today i noticed two Gigabyte phones that are both packed with features and seem to be a good bargain, considering price and what is stated as phones' specs. Here are the two ones i noticed:

http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=5400&idPhone2=5401

I'm wondering has anyone had any experience with these phones? For the price, (a little more than €200 - a really good price for that kind of phone here) they almost seem too good to be true. I was also wondering what's the real difference between the processors? Both of them have 1gHz dual core, but the Rio model (cheaper and weaker) has Qualcomm MSM8225 Snapdragon, and the more expensive Maya model has MTK 6577. I have heard of Snapdragon before, and i think it should be a good processor, but i have no information on the latter one.

Oh, and maybe it's good to note that the cheaper, Rio model comes with android 4.0, with no possibility of upgrade, and Maya comes with 4.1

Anyways, what should I expect of these phones? Should I consider buying any of them at all? Did anyone try to root them and put any custom rom on them?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jjsan:
I bought RIO R1 yesterday so its quite new for me, but as I used many android phones I can compare it quite well.

I can compare it to htc desire, wildfire s, sensation and many others

so the biggest problem is battery drain, but Im used to charge battery often so its not so big deal for me.

problem is with headphones, only the ones packed with phone works ok, but I will try more of them (htc headphones start music application and radio is only mono)

phone is little bit laggy but Im trying to get rid of apps I dont want.

root was easy done in 5 minutes and the most of the time was used for searching for right drivers and software.

I found CWM but its for A30 and phone does not show anything in recovery mode. I tried droid@screen but got nothing. I will try to search and play with it.

both sim cards work great (only one sim can be used for hi-speed internet, second one is only on edge), you can choose the time to choose from which card will you call or use predefined.

you can set own ringtone for every sim card and if you get sms or call you can see on which sim card.

I installed all apps from my htc desire and its much faster but I have problem with my favourite launcher - action launcher. I will try nova launcher as I have paid version.

Im waiting for 4.1 or higher or maybe I will also try to compile it for tests.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] eipi10:
When I saw that the Jellybean update had been officially been released to my phone, I hopped on my computer only to discover that my computer wouldn't recognize my phone no matter what. It charges, but no connection. I've tried everything, from enabling/disabling debugging, to reinstalling drivers and Samsung Kies. At this point I'm fairly certain that my phone's microUSB plug has broken.

Is there any way that I can put the update on my external microSD card and have my phone update from that?

(I'm running stock ICS and am not rooted)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Camazza:
Hello guys, I've recently upgraded from a Galaxy Nexus to a Galaxy S III, skipping the Nexus 4 for reasons I should explain only if asked.

I've been reading a lot of posts from AOSP advocates defending Samsung's TouchWiz, which makes for a rather worrying reading.

Now, I'm quite pleased with stock TW Jellybean, it's really smooth, fast, stable and not bloated at all. However, I wanted to try some AOSP roms since developers clearly had some time to work on them, and Samsung has certainly released JB source code to overcome some driver-related issues that there might have been. My question is: is TW still the best option or are there some AOSP roms that are stable, fast and working on every aspect? I'm talking about tethering, data connection, auto-brightness, battery life, bluetooth, camera... the stuff meant to work at its best on a stock TW rom.

Thanks for your help.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *GalaxyDev*:
Well actually for me the AOSP ROMs are smoother and have all the features I could probably need....but

Samsung didn't released the sources as they told us and because of that (and a couple of proprietary reasons with Microsoft)

We can't make a fully functional camera(slight camcorder/flash stuff that have never affected me)

Can't have exfat sdcards

Can't have native FM radio

(Reason why we are not really officially supported by Cyanogenmod in their M builds)

But that's about it...I would really recommend you to try them...unless you need a Samsung specific feature like AllShare or AllShare control if you have a SmartTV...or want the extra features in the camera (BurstShot ShareShot) that I really never used..... and a lot of those features are now in CM10.1 like HDR and that stuff.

Those are my two 2 cents of the theme
