[AT&T HTC One (M7)] guy4jesuschrist:
Nope, this is actually my very first smartphone, unless the BB 8330 I had before it was considered a smartphone. I've been holding out for a worthy contender to the EVO, in comparison to when I purchase and what is the most cutting edge, since I'll be stuck with it for at least 2 years. Having it rooted, and even able to run the 4.2.2 SlimBean ROM, as well as ICS and other JB versions before it, certainly helped me hold out much longer.

Looking forward to how the One treats me. Although, I'm gonna try holding out on rooting it until someone figures out how to unlock the bootloader without it showing that it was unlocked before, if I need to unroot and relock. I've heard that AT&T doesn't allow unlocking the bootloader, so I'd hate to have a problem with my phone, unroot, relock, and take it in for diagnosis, only to be turned away because the bootloader shows a message that it had once been unlocked. Or I might unlock the official way if I discover that someone figures out a way to remove that message.

Sorry about this conversation leading somewhat off topic. I figured I'd post my concerns for deciding not to root immediately, just in case others have similar concerns. Also, someone might come across solutions that address these concerns and decide to share. Let me know if you'd rather the conversation continue elsewhere though.

[MENTION=4108393]guy4jesuschrist[/MENTION], wow, well welcome to the modern age :D kind of, really, you've been here for a while with the Evo. hahaha but I do see why you are concerned, but a phone like this, we're bound to have an S-Off process soon. Patience is a virtue my friend :)

[MENTION=2495588]gunnyman[/MENTION], thank you! i will be updating the top post now! :)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] guy4jesuschrist:
Definitely! I have no problem being patient. I'm sure I'll enjoy the phone in stock form for awhile anyways. It will be a huge performance upgrade from me EVO. :) One of the first apps I will install will be:

Although, I unfortunately haven't received my One yet. According to USPS tracking, it should arrive tomorrow. Can hardly wait! :)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] alx294:
even better :D don't forget to post your homescreen! :D
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] guy4jesuschrist:
Okie dokie, will do. :) The USPS tracker was wrong, still waiting on my One. :/ Hopefully it will arrive tomorrow though!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] alx294:
aw that sucks D: I hate that so much. I have to wait another month for my One D: the suspense is killing me.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Darealshht:
Getting mine tomorrow can't wait!!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] guy4jesuschrist:
Dang! I'd really hate to wait another month. I finally got mine. Just waiting for it to finish charging, and then I'll get into the goodies. :)

Gonna hold off on rooting and flashing a custom ROM though, as I've read of some having speed issues depending on if the ROM bases are international or AT&T. I also read something about picture quality being better on the international, than on AT&T, but I'm hoping that only refers to custom AT&T ROMs and not the stock one. *crosses fingers*

Oh, also, I thought I'd mention another great app that I plan to install as soon as I get my One up and running. It's an advanced voice assistant app for the poweruser or novice, called "utter!"...the most recent version is in a post towards the end of the thread, not the Play Store. It's a great app, with a really great developer!

Btw, anyone having any issues with their speakers popping during YouTube videos, and even in some other apps? I noticed it some in YT vids, but it was the worst when I tried the Smule app "Sing" last night. It worries me that it's a hardware issue, but I've researched online and a significant number of users are having the popping during YT vids and music. No mention of "Sing" though. I just hope that a software update will fix it, considering that I just spent well over an hour applying a full body skin from bestskinsever.com. The plus is that the skin was only about $9+ including shipping, so if I have to get a replacement, it's not too big of an issue. :)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clearday:
I bump into the thread below over a week ago.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=40017296

So far Kali Linux is working on my N7100 via Linux Deploy, SSH and VNC and used some tools in Kali to test my wireless router. However, I cannot boot Kali from the recovery image. I followed the steps in the tutorial, but all I get is a black screen:

http://docs.kali.org/armel-armhf/kali-linux-on-galaxy-note

Attached is a copy of the recovery image originally meant for the Galaxy Note 10.1, but may work on the Note 2 as well.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bahtsiz_bedevi:
I see the problems below.

1. Your zip file is not an EDIFY CWM script package if you're trying to install it via ClockworkMod.

2. In that guide for Note 10.1 mmcblk0p6 is the recovery partition. But for Note II, the recovery partition is mmcblk0p9

3. That recovery image probably for Note 10.1, not for Note II? Recoveries for Note II also contains a kernel. It's not just a recovery!

That guide is using low level raw image writing with dd. If you don't know what you're doing, don't play with it.

Plus, they already have mentioned that

Edit: I see that you said you have a black screen. Congratulations, probably you have bricked your device if I understood correctly.

Last chance, flash a stock firmware for Note II via Odin while you're praying for that your device is not bricked.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clearday:
No need to be melodramatic. I just replaced the recovery image with TWRP though ODIN and I'm back in business.

BTW, I really didn't need the lecture. That is why I posted it here, so someone with the know how can fix the recovery image. This benefits the Note 2 community maybe even all android smartphone owners here at XDA if the image can be utilized, as it was for Backtrack.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bahtsiz_bedevi:
Oh I'm sorry, my mistake mate. I noted your nickname. I won't disturb you again.;)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clearday:
Yes flashing an unknown recovery image was very risky. But for me, the benefit of using Kali Linux natively outweighed that.

BTW, looking at my earlier comment, I realized my part in this conversation, so for that my sincere apologies.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarHazK:
so you've already make note 2 works with Linux Deploy. If im not mistaken, note 2's linux deploy keep giving an permission failures like :

sudo: PERM_ROOT: setresuid(0, -1, -1): Permission denied

or do you have any better suggestions and instructions without disturbing the ROM (like odin especiall)?

why simple mobile?

I couldn't begin to tell you why yours isn't working, I used the settings for APN that are on the simple mobile web site, worked fine in my t-mobile note 2. I'd use simply mobile except for the fact they just shut off your data when you reach 2 gig, no slowdown, throttling, just bam, it's shut off.

All I want to know is how did u get ur simple mobile sim in the gn2 from tmo I meen I have one

But simple mobile sim is big and gn2 sim space is small
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mongo41:
You can either call Simple Mobile and get a micro sim or find someone in your area that cuts sim cards. You can also order a cutter on ebay for like 5 bucks and they usually give you a couple of adapters to use it in a full size sim slot.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] one80oneday:
Just put smaller sim on top of bigger sim, trace it, then slowly cut it with scissors until it fits.

If you take your time and be carefull it will work just fine. That's what I did because Tmob wanted to charge me $20 for new micro sim. Been using it for one year without problems.

So I have not rooted.or tampered with my one yet. Noticed today that my home and back buttons don't light up.. I know they did yesterday when I got it. Did I accidentally turn them off somehow? Or should I go return? Any thoughts ladies and gents ?

Try covering the two little sensors on the top left of the phone and press the keys again to see if they light up. If they don't, then no bueno. If they do then success.

I had tried covering up the sensors and that didn't work..after 3 factory resets in bootloader they finally started working. All seems to be running fine now.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] samdsox:
it goes without saying that spigen LOOKS better. But that't not why i'm stuck between the two. From what I have seen from spigen's past products and uag's past products, the uag will afford a far greater protection. The spigen seems to have a very small lip for front protection. I'm not sure how much I trust myself with $200 phone and less protection if i went with slim armor...decisions...decisions.

Puregear Dualtek cases are pretty slim and also combine both materials into one. From what I hear they protect quite well, I don't drop my phone too often and when I do its probably from about pocket level so I don't really need a thick case :)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] EvoTillIdIE:
UAG is the way to go it doesnt get dirty.(idk about the white one) And the rubber it does have on it wont turn your pocket inside out. I have the olive grewn one for my s3 and i will get a UAG case for my S5 next year.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] facetubespam:
You are kidding, right?

There are many, many people that will dispute with you about whether UAG can even be classified as a slim case. Ringke Slim is slim. UAG is not.

Dear all.

I recently installed some tweaks onto my Z and I went to turn on the NFC function and it doesn't seem to be working anymore. The last time I turned it on was maybe about 3 weeks ago and it was working fine then.

If I restore from a nand backup, will it restore any system changes I have made within this 2-3 weeks period?

Also, any suggestions on what else I could try?

Thanks :good::D

You made a nand backup 3 weeks ago, so when restored, you'll lose all changes done after the 3 weeks.

Hi everyone!

I just updated to JB yesterday and the battery life sucks so much. This is going to be annoying for me. So I am thinking about installing CyanogenMod. But before that, I have some questions:

1. Must I unlock the bootloader? (My phone is unbranded.)

2. After relocking the bootloader, can I still get warranty from Sony? And can I still repair my phone and get updates using PC Companion?

3. How is the battery life, performance and some other features of CM10.1?

That's all I have to ask now. I will appreciate everyone's help. Thanks in advance!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] hhamzah49:
I have the LT30p(T) i installed CM few days ago, and i must say i love it much more than normal Xperia android. But answering your questions;

1. you MUST unlock bootloader.

2. Not sure, but i guess not. (but you dont use your warranty so why care.. If anything gets broken with the hardware warranty doesnt work, and if its something with software we can fix it here.)

3. Battery life i guess is better.

Hope i helped you.

drivers map flashtool install fastboot drivers(scroll down when opening installer)

search fastboot (file) in flashtool.

in that map place the boot.img

copy cyanogenmod zip and gapps to phone

go to this site: http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/ and get the key (with your imei and use a genuine imei)

open cmd and get to the file where the fastboot file and the boot.img is.

turn off phone and press volup and connect via usb.

type: fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY, where KEY is the unlock boot loader key you got.

Wow! This is detailed. But I still have a few questions.

1. How to use cmd to get to the fastboot file and the boot.img? (Assuming I extract the files to Desktop) And what for?

2. After unlocking my bootloader, if I brick my phone, can I still flash a stock JB firmware into my phone and get repair using PC Companion?

3. Should I type these in the cmd? "fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY", "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and "fastboot reboot"?

4. What did you mean by "drivers map flashtool install fastboot drivers(scroll down when opening installer), search fastboot (file) in flashtool, in that map place the boot.img"

5. I checked the FreeXperia site, everything's working on CM10.1. Is it still considered as unstable?

Sorry for asking so many questions. This is because I just bought this phone not long ago and I don't want to brick it and cannot repair it. So I will need a lot of details to make sure everything goes well. I appreciate your help! =]

All these instructions and answers to your questions are available in the all in one thread, I suggest you read it before doing anything to your phone. Then you can ask in that thread

1. via windows explorer go to your dekstop (users->ACCOUNTS->Desktop) and click on the top where you see the adress and copy it. then in cmd write "C: *what you copied*"

2.Bricking your phone is very hard to do, soft bricking happens more often and yes you can easily flash via flashtool BUT after unlocking bootloader PCC wont recognize your phone, so know how to use Flashtool (NOT THE SONY ONE NORMAL ONE)

3. yes but first get to the directory of your boot.img to make it easier, after that just write all of those.

4. After you have installed Flashtool go to : Flashtool\Drivers\Flashtooldrivers.exe open that and after pressing next scroll down to fastboot drivers.
