My first attempt was only sboot.bin from:

GT-I9300_Boot_Recovery.tar

You can find it here for instance:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/galaxy-s-iii-gt-i9300-hard-brick-fix-t1916796

For RD-PQ you have to rename this file from sboot.bin to:

s-boot-mmc.bin

Created TAR... flashed with Windows and 1 click Thor...

But this leads to "Tweezer Action"...

______________________

I am now at home... and will try few tests...

Variant 1.

Maybe THOR Downloader allow to write whole mmcblk0boot0

So 2 MB instead 800 KB...

If I see Error Message... maybe 800 KB was maximum with THOR...

Then I will check Variant 2.

To play with Wayland Kernel (Tizen 3)... and dd Command...

To work with Tweezer is not impossible... BUT as you can see on these Pictures...

During the long 2 years...

I have enough spareparts and additional Hardware crap... to do this with Battery...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64714110&postcount=279

If we have luck... maybe full 2 MB dump of mmcblk0boot0 from GT-I9300 is enough.

To flash successfully with THOR...

And Download Mode then working... for Action with ODIN.

Give me 1 day... for my tests.

I will post results.

Variant 1.

With Flashing via THOR... leads EVER to Tweezer...

So this is harder...

Maybe only few Bytes erased and not all...

I can see my Flash Counter under Android...

But Variant 2 looks promising... :angel:

Commands

sdb root on
sdb push sbootDUMP.bin /media
sdb shell
echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
dd if=/media/sbootDUMP.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0boot0
poweroff

Visible output on screen looks like this:

C:\sdb>sdb root on
Switched to 'root' account mode

C:\sdb>sdb push sbootDUMP.bin /media
pushed sbootDUMP.bin 100% 2MB
1 file(s) pushed. 0 file(s) skipped.
sbootDUMP.bin 4369 KB/s (2097152 bytes in 0.468s)

C:\sdb\sdb260>sdb shell
sh-3.2# echo 0 > /sys/block/mmcblk0boot0/force_ro
sh-3.2# dd if=/media/sbootDUMP.bin of=/dev/mmcblk0boot0
4096+0 records in
4096+0 records out
2097152 bytes (2.1 MB) copied, 0.312969 s, 6.7 MB/s
sh-3.2# poweroff

But this is only working with WAYLAND Tizen 3... as you need access to mmcblk0boot0

2 MB dump is attached from GT-I9300 sboot + additional data...

So first step is to download and flash Wayland to RD-PQ...

These my tested Version...

tizen-mobile_20160114.2.20160114.143729_mobile-boot-armv7l-RD-PQ.tar.gz
tizen-mobile_20160114.2.20160114.143729_mobile-wayland-armv7l-n4.tar.gz

It could be these files are not more on server...

Find similar files here:

http://download.tizen.org/prerelease/tizen/mobile/

Look under latest date and try to find folder were 2 files/folders inside...

Bootloader/Kernel folder is with RDPQ...

You can ask for questions...

This Variant leads after poweroff Command to Android Download Mode. :angel:

At your own risk.!

[Tizen Software Development] mapcuk:
So what happened after you did "dd .. poweroff" ?

Has the device loaded to recovery mode?
[Tizen Software Development] adfree:
After poweroff Iam in Download Mode.

I can see Download Mode Picture on Display.

Nothing changed... no USB cable removed or key pressed...

No Hardware Action required... like open device and play with tweezer.

ODIN detected my device and I have flashed 3 parts Firmware...

I found somewhere DBT Version... i9300XXUGNG3_bitstopfen_3tlg.zip

You can use also other... but better find 1 with param.bin inside...

---------------------------

For Wayland Tizen 3...

http://download.tizen.org/prerelease/tizen/mobile/

Find this:

arm-wayland/

And These 2 Folders must inside:

mobile-boot-armv7l-RD-PQ/
mobile-wayland-armv7l-n4/

This Folder is under heavy construction/development... so they also remove links...

So I can't give direct link...

If successfully flashed RD-PQ to Wayland...

It could be that hangs on Tizen Logo...

No Panic... :D

Restart/Reboot... into Download Mode Menu by Holding:

Volume +

Power

You will see this menu:

Download Mode Menu
DEVICE - Info
BATTERY - charge level
THOR - downloader
UMS - mass storage
DFU - firmware update
GPT - default
[B]ENV - default[/B]
EXIT - and run normal boot

Select ENV Default...

RD-PQ should now boot...

You see after Pinguins... nothing... only black Screen. But after few Seconds you can work proper with SDB.

I have done all steps as you described and it works! :good: Many thanks :o

As I had Tizen 2.2 I had to migrate bootloader and flashed Tizen 3 with Wayland.

How do you discovered menu (Volume + Power) and "ENV" mode where sdb can connect to?

As I understand sbootDUMP.bin is dumped from original Samsung i9300 (with simple dd again)?

After "dd" the device booted to Download Mode.

I tried to flash 1-file stock firmware with Odin but It failed.

I used another firmware with 4 files (modem, bootloader, pda, regional section) and it is flashed successfully. But the device doesn't register in mobile network, it looks like there is zero IMEI. Does the Tizen have IMEI at all ?

I still have a question: how can be that one kernel lets to access boot section and other doesn't ?

For SM-R750A I found this for instance:

Not tested... nor I know if this helps you...

As no idea how similar R750 and R-750A are?

And if for R750 allready Android Port or... available. :confused: :o

Sometimes minor differences in Hardware have BIG... major effects... like totally incompatibility of 1 porting Firmware...

Found via Google:

https://xdaforums.com/gear-s/help/unlock-bootloader-sm-r750a-t3324090

This is btw. Gear S Subforum...

Generally nearly nothing is impossible...

But Bootloader Unlock is sometimes not easy or not free available... or nobody tried... or special Hardware/Software required or not for free...

Or... :o :o :o

I hope you know what I mean. :D ;)

I spend over 1 year for my GT-I9300 expereinces...

Payed enough money for spare parts/devices... like GT-I9300 Boards/PCB... :cyclops:

Sometimes it is really easier and faster to buy new device.

I am not familiar with all the terms. Please help me understand what does "combination files" mean? Does it includes the binaries to unlock the bootloader?

Close, but not quite

I have several I9300 phones with Tizen which I hope to make useful again by installing Android. I was able to follow adfree's method to get into Android download mode, but I get an error when flashing with Heimdall (an open-source Odin replacement):

ERROR: Failed to confirm end of PIT file transfer!
ERROR: PIT upload failed!

Do I also need to repartition the device? I'm also trying Odin, but no success so far.

With Odin many Versions... MANY hours, days, weeks, months, YEARS...

Odin work, because from Samsung for Samsung devices...

No idea why you want Adventure with Heimdall...

Only reason would be... you are Linux user...

And you not like Windows nor leaked Tools.

I can check Version I have used... long time ago...

But PIT partition.pit is mandatory...

So yes, you have to re-partition... as Tizen on RD-PQ have other partiton scheme... as GT-I9300 Android.

I could check my HD... and upload PIT file... by request...

But in theory all files and infos and PIT files are in GT-I9300 Threads...

You can Google it...

Maybe this is working PIT:

Yes, I was using Heimdall because I run Linux pretty much exclusively.

After spending all morning downloading my student copy of Windows and installing it in a virtual machine, I was finally able to flash the PIT file you provided. After that, Heimdall worked just fine, and I was able to install a custom recovery (twrp). Now I just have to rebuild the rest of the system image. ;)

Hi all,

I tried searching the forums and google on this but couldn't find an answer.

I've included a picture just to give you guys a visual. (Guess I can't show you since I'm a noob)

It's the dot(s) that is an indicator when you have 1 or more home screens.

My question is - is there a way to remove the dot(s)/indicator? By way of an app or custom ROM?

Thanks in advance!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gtdtm:
If I understand what you are saying a custom launcher like apex or nova should take care of it. They will have a bar, but you can hide it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] snam90:
Is it possible to hide the dots/panel indicator on a stock ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gtdtm:
Those will work on the stock rom, but not the stock launcher. I guess I should mention you may not be able to use touchwiz widgets with them. But to keep your launcher and rom but remove those would involve code manipulation. I'm not saying no one has done it, but I haven't stumbled upon that type of tweak.

Well, this device is in the Legacy & Low Activity Devices forum for a reason....also "best/fastest/smoothest/mostest ROM" threads are generally discouraged as there is no one right answer for all people. It really depends on the user's individual needs, so no one can answer it correctly for you but you. Try various ROMs until you find the one that is the best for you. Thread closed.

Any suggestions?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
when you flashed the gapps again, did you wipe cache and dalvik?

as a last resort, i would recommend a full wipe (wipe data, cache, dalvik, format /system) if you didnt when you initially flashed the ROM/gapps.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ewingr:
Yes, I did wipe cache and dalvik. and I dis wipe all, and format system when I first installed. It's been working for several days, with occasional FCs on the GAPPS, but now it just seems hosed.

A bit ago, I wen in and did all of that wiping, and format system, and restored the Nandroid (TWRP) that I created of it when it was working, and still no go.

I'm considering going back to 4.1.1. But I've read that going back from 4.2 to 4.1 is not a good idea. I'm not positive if I'd get some /0 directory issues. But it would seem to me if I wipe everything, even format the sdcard, I should be able to go back.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] slight22:
What is Telus hiding?

I have four retailers around me all planning to sell the S4 but all refusing to do anything but sell it under a three year contract. a little over 2 years ago i swore i would never be locked into a contract by telus again just cause the phone i had lasted 2 years and telus wanted to give me a new phone by putting me into another three year contract. As well as they were gonna take my unlimited data away from me, they did anyway when i went to the LTE phone system, but beyond that i swore no more three year contracts.

So now I want to upgrade and I may have to wait, but my question is this. What is telus not telling us? what is it that they want all the people on a three year contract so baddly for. I mean i know they are trying to make a profit.

But whats the secret what are they not telling us? Originally the contracts had a closing few of so much per each month thats left on the contract. Now they are saying that if you want out you just pay whats left owing on the phone. Now this sounds great but I have been burned by Telus too many times in the past to trust this. As well as they guy at the store is trying to tell me i'm gonna save over two hundred bucks in three years by signing the contract.

I'm wondering if anyone here could tell me what i'm missing, why are they trying so hard for a three year contract (esp if they are making money on the plans) and what is hidden in plain sight that I can't see, or if i sign it, what happens when i try to get out of it.

thx
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] hansonator:
They want you to sign for three years because they are basically giving you the phone for next to nothing, they eat the rest of the cost so that you give them 50+ dollars a month for three years. If you cancel your contract, you pay the remaining balance of the phone plus one months bill as you have to give 30 days notice. They are not going to give you a 700 dollar phone for 200 dollars just so you can cancel your contract and go to another carrier.

It sucks that we have 3 year contracts but the mobile companies here also don't have 100 million customers like vz and att.

As far as buying it outright, afaik, they have to sell it to you. They even show the no term price on their website. However, you may not be able to get one for a few weeks.

Also, koodoo, owned by Telus, will be selling the gs4 for under 650 off contract.
