My dev edition didn't include Swype but rather a trace option for the stock KB.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnsviet:
You can turn it on. Just go to any email / text and when the normal keyboard pops up, swipe down your notification on top and click on the Keyboard icon to change to Swype.

Quirky way of enabling it indeed :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tanquen:
That did it. So odd that you can't turn it on under keyboards, maybe they did not want people to use it. Thanks.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tanquen:
Maybe Sprint did it then.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cnsviet:
Exactly my thoughts too.
[General Questions and Answers] Mohhamad Rehan:
Everytime when I view the thread he mentions a certain apn after flashing the custom roms so time for him to explain the issue now
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zaeed:
Hey, just a few things I'd like t clarify before I buy the One. These are basically things I couldn't test in the store

Regarding the shortcuts on the lock screen:

If you have a password/swipe/face/watever to unlock your phone, is this bypassed when using the apps? i.e. if I have my gmail link there, can someone slide up on gmail and get straight in, or does it require a password. And if so, does it then also require a password when sliding the camera?

Regarding notifications:

Say you have a notification from facebook in the notifications slider at the top of the screen. Does Sense 5 allow you to swipe that notification away, like stock android does?

Killing applications:

On my galaxy nexus, there is the button that looks like two overlapping squares, that brings up a list of recent apps. Is there something similar to this in Sense 5?

Cheers

that would be a major security flaw ! it's not the case.

yes, double tap home for recently used apps, swipe them away. done :)

Brilliant, thanks for the quick reply
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Long813:
These are some easy questions, I'll answer the best I can

I haven't used other locks beside the swipe, but it does seem that swiping the icon up in the drawer will jump right to it.

Yes, it is a swipe to the right.

What you are talking about it "multitask" and yes, if you double tap the HOME button, you'll bring up the multi-task menu where you can swipe apps away. FYI, this is *not* the same as a task killer.

Hey I'm trying to sell my S3 and after a factory reset and wiping everything in TWRP my name, email address and phone number is still under About device/Status. How do you remove this info? I really don't feel comfortable selling it to a stranger with all that info remaining is there a better wiping method? I'm not finding this anywhere. Thanks in advance.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] m20120:
This gets set when you activate. You may be able to clear it with ##rtn# but you will need your msl.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Is it a hassle to obtain your msl? When I had an HTC evo lte it was as simple as running an app with root permissions.

Edit : the only is on MB1 and per this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t= I need to downgrade and flash an LJ7 ROM which will let me get the code via terminal. So after I obtain my MSL I just go in the settings and delete my info right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Search on general, there are several pretty easy methods to do it
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] m20120:
You are correct about the downgrade to get the MSL. There is a root app but it stopped working a while ago. I know that under the ##rtn# screen there is an option to Reset the activation data but I am not positive that will clear the phone number.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Yeah I'm not certain either yet but under edit in ##DATA# or ##rtn# it seems like you able to maybe add all 0's (I hope) for my cell and make a fake email.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Ahh so simply flashing an LJ7 ROM while currently on MB1 doesn't downgrade? I've found this http://www.android.gs/downgrade-sprint-galaxy-s3-jelly-bean-stock-rom/ and it says to use ClockworkMOD recovery but im currently on TWRP. Will TWRP work or is there an easier way to execute this? I flashed an old The Peoples ROM but it still shows me being on MB1. Will flashing a firmware only zip fix this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
I've done this before to sell my Sprint S3 and can confirm that the dialer method does not work when rooted. In oder to do what you're requesting you'll need to transfer your account to another device. After doing this, the best way to clear out your info on the S3 and sell it is to

1) download the app "Get My MSL". It will most likely give you an error when tapping the "Get My MSL" option in the app at first.

2) open dialer and enter ##DATA#

3) When prompted to enter MSL code just choose any single digit number and enter it 6 times

4) once the popup message appears go immediately back into the "Get My MSL" app and select the option again and it will give you your MSL code. Make sure to save the code somewhere safe.

5) Now that you have your code, ODIN your phone back to complete 100% stock with the LJ7 stock tar file.

6) Once done, skip through the setup wizard upon first boot up and go straight into your dialer and enter ##786#

7) select "Reset" then enter MSL and hit "OK" .

8) select "OK" again on the "Reset to manufacture defaught" popup. It will reboot your phone.

9) Let it do it's thing in stock recovery and once booted up cancel the hands free activation and everything should be cleared out in "About Phone" in settings.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Awesome thanks! I'm selling my phone with it rooted though can I do this and wipe all information and just flash a stock ROM? Do I have to ODIN back to stock LJ7 to completely wipe my phone and email address or can this be done with MB1? I was on The Peoples ROM MB1 and flashed an old LJ7 ROM but it still says MB1 baseband in the settings, will this still work? I don't have WiFi access to check if this worked I will this afternoon. Thanks for your help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
The build number for the firmware (aka modem/radio) is separate from the build number of the rom itself. Go into the dev section and search for a the LJ7 modem and flash that
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Follow the procedure above actually to the dot. Why? because If you try doing this while being rooted I GAURANTEE you will have problems and will wind up coming back here asking for help again but this time with another issue. To save you the trouble I highly recommend following the steps above. ODIN back to complete 100% stock LJ7. I've heard of some people not having much success trying this on MB1 but I haven't tried it myself as I am no longer with Sprint but I still support the forums. The last I have tried it on was on LJ7 and I along with many others have had success on that build so LJ7 would be your best bet. Modem and build are separate but flashing a tar file through ODIN will update everything, including the modem back to LJ7. If you wanna sell the phone rooted on the latest firmware then again follow the steps and after you've gotten through the last step, make sure to be connected to wifi so you may receive the MB1 update and then FINALLY root it. It may sound like a lot to do but it's really not.. so long as you know exactly what you're doing. Following this procedure is not only your safest way in selling a phone but it's also the BEST way to fully clear your ESN! (even after deactivation) Like I said I did this and my buyer was 100% satisfied.

Good luck!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Ok cool. I flashed the LJ7 modem as well as being on an LJ7 ROM. If I still can't receive my MSL and complete the wipe via ##data# or ##rtn# I will ODIN back to stock as you said. Thanks everyone for the help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
I had a BIG problem doing this while rooted so if you do this while already rooted I wish you the best of luck but just know that I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your device.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
In that case haha I'm going to unroot and return to stock. Seems easy enough and thanks for the forewarning. I'm having problems finding a thread on here exactly showing how to restore back to stock LJ7. I don't want to seem incapable of finding it I'm just coming up dry do you have this thread saved to your favorites that you could share? I appreciate all the help!

EDIT: http://theunlockr.com/2012/07/28/how-to-unroot-sprint-samsung-galaxy-s3/ that guide seems like what I need.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
That link doesn't exactly provide the firmware you're looking to flash. I have the correct one for you on my pc. I can upload you a mirror if you'd like.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
That would be nice of you man I appreciate it. Exactly which firmware do I need? I don't just need the original stock ROM to pull the .tar file? I had no problem rooting but unrooting sounds a little more difficult.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
not difficult at all. You can unroot back to any of the stock firmwares that have been released on the Sprint S3. The problem is that many of the links here are broken and I'm trying to prevent you from unrooting all the way back to an ICS stock firmware requiring you to accept 1 too many OTAs. So Like I said I recommend LJ7 but I just realized I actually did wind up deleting the LJ7 file on my pc when I switched to T-Mobile. My apologies but I did manage to find one of my subscribed threads that will return you back to stock MB1 without a pc. They are flashable zips, just like flashing any ROM, and the op says the MB1 issues have been fixed. Again, I wasn't able to test this out but it's intended to do the same work as ODIN so it's worth a shot and a much easier approach. Report back with your results and good luck!

Oh and as always do a nandroid backup
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Ok so with my current state I'm on a LJ7 ROM and flashed the LJ7 modem, after I get my MSL number I should flash the Stock MB1 ROM method you just posted then continue with resetting back to manufacture settings in ##DATA# and I should be gold correct? I thank you once again for your help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
First of all, in this case don't worry about flashing any modems. Also, ##DATA# is what you'll need in the beginning to obtain your MSL. ##RTN# or ##786# is what you'll be entering at the end to return to manufacture default. To keep it simple for you, just follow the same step by step procedure I posted in the previous page BUT once you get to step 5, replace that with the MB1 post above and once done proceed to step 6 and so on. As long as you follow my instructions correctly you should have no issues.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Sounds good! When I get home and have WiFi access I'll hook all this up and report back! Thanks a lot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Well I got my MSL no problem! Now I'm downloading the appropriate files for the MB1 stock ROM. Do you think it would be beneficial to install custom recovery and root back also? Just incase something happens while running the ##DATA# reset?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
##786# > reset > enter MSL > wait for reboot > profit! It will clear all NV, EFS and user data from the device. It's the master reset to wipe the device to fresh from the box status. It's used during activation of a used device as the first step to prep the device to go into HFA and then be manually provisioned to the network with ##72786#

☆SoA: Son's of Android™☆

I like to break stuff! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Gotta love the help on these forums! I would have been lost with yall! This MB1 Stock ROM is taking awhile to download its been over 1/2 hour and only on 10%. I'm downloading it on my phone via WiFi I know I should do it on a computer but won't have access to one until tomorrow maybe. I will just check the MD5's to ensure the download is accurate and do a backup before flashing.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
##DATA# was just an alternative in obtaining your MSL. Like I said earlier ##RTN# is what's needed to reset your phone to manufacture default. You're gonna wanna be completely stock to do so as I already stated. Follow through the steps. You've obtained your MSL and now it's on to step 5 in flashing the MB1 unrooted stock firmware flashable zip. It being a flashable zip, yes, you still need your custom recovery to flash it. Within the zip is also the stock recovery image so once you flash and reboot you'll be completely stock with stock recovery. That is when you'll skip through the setup wizard and enter ##RTN# in your dialer and reset it. You may then root it again after completing all of this.

Again make sure you have a backup so you can do a full wipe of your LJ7 ROM BEFORE flashing the MB1 file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Right that sounds good. I was talking about flashing custom recovery and root after flashing the MB1 ROM. It says you can flash those before rebooting after the ROM flash or should I not do this? Did you say having root made you run into trouble when resetting the data in ##rtn#?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Yes, it will take a while. The entire file not only contains the stock ROM, which is pretty large but it also contains the stock recovery, modem, kernel, etc.. So it will take some time. I hope all this info helped.

---------- Post added at 04:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:12 PM ----------

Yes but like I said I have not tested it on MB1. It should work but since I never tried it on that build myself I wanted to make sure I guided you in the right direction towards your OP the best way I can so you'd have less or no issues at all.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Yep close to 1gb. I was just wondering if I don't flash the additional custom recovery/root files after the MB1 ROM options and something occurs (doubtful) after resetting in ##rtn# I'd be stuck and unable to restore my ROM before the MB1 flash right?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Remember the goal here is to be stock UNROOTED upon resetting to manufacture default. You don't HAVE TO do it this way. I just don't want you facing similar issues like I did. Every device is different so it's up to you to decide if you wanna take that risk. But as long as I'm here helping you out I will only suggest what worked for me and that was resetting my phone UNROOTED. Also, remember to make sure your current recovery is up to date and that you make a backup so you can fully wipe your phone before flashing MB1.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Sounds good to me. I'll do a backup before flashing. It really doesn't matter if its rooted or not hence I'm selling it anyway. :thumbup:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
My point exactly lol. You do wanna satisfy your buyer with a 100% good working phone don't you? That's why I wanted to make sure you did this safely so both you and your buyer are happy but if you think you're good then by all means do it rooted. Just don't go sending them to Luigi if something goes wrong! cuz I'll just send them right over to Mario lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Haha I just figured I might make a little more $$$ if it was rooted but I'm probably wrong. I'd rather send them a working phone rather than chance it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
That's what I said earlier. you can run through all the steps and after finally resetting your phone you can THEN root it again. You just had a bit more going on. You were already rooted so you needed to unroot so you can reset to manufacture default to remove your info the safest way possible and then re-root the phone so you can sell it for more $$$. That's basically what I've been having you do. I was in the same EXACT position man. I did it with no issues at all and sold it. The guy never called back for any problems :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
CRAP!!! I THINK I SCREWED UP! I forgot to wipe before flashing the zip so now it looks stock but still says The Peoples ROM and all my apps and all are still there. I checked also and TWRP is gone now its the stock recovery. What can I do? I did a backup before flashing the stock MB1 but that can only be restored via TWRP right? How can I restore the backup if I'm on stock recovery now?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
You can follow the

Odin rooting guide

to get recovery back. It's easy to do.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
You don't need to be rooted to flash custom recovery and flash a backup?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Take your time. Don't rush things. So first of all you wanna check to see if your root binaries were removed or screwed up in any way cuz if that's the case then additional action needs to be taken. So head over to the Play Store, download Root Checker, and see if you still have root permissions.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] topherk:
If you're still rooted (have superuser access), you can try downloading the Goo.IM app from the play store and reinstalling a custom recovery through there.

If not, you need to do into download mode and work through Odin (per my previously linked guide) to get a custom recovery back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Nope no longer have SU. Dang it haha see what happens when your rushing and watching the walking dead at the same time!? Well it's going to have to wait now don't have access to a computer to root again. Dang it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
Yes I was gonna mentioned downloading Goomanager next if you were still rooted but that's out of the question now. However you're not totally out of luck without a pc yet. You may have screwed up but you may have still accomplished the UNROOT process. You have your MSL so this is where you're gonna have to make a decision if you wanna take the risk and head into your dialer to reset your phone.

---------- Post added at 05:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:47 PM ----------

And if not you're gonna have to go through that ODIN guide mentioned above.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigMosley:
Well even if I was to take the risk of doing the ##rtn# it will still say peoples Rom all over the phone and not look stock. I think I'll just reroot and flash twrp again then restore my backup and then reflash the MB1 stock Rom and WIPE THIS TIME and then do the ##rtn#. I read the MB1 stock rom should have took a while like 5 mins and when it didn't take long but said successful I thought that was odd then I realized I didn't wipe all. Oh well I'm still happy I at least got the MSL code haha.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuigiBull23:
