I will try that again and get back to you. I am downloading an official firmware now and will try that.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okty2k:
good luck! :)

and maybe, if that does not work, an forced update via kies might still do the job....
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worker99:
How do i do a forced update via kies? Kies does not recognise my phone when i have it connected. Should i try connecting the usb to the back of the computer rather than the front?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sadekmefti:
Try Flashing another Kernel :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worker99:
What if i was to flash the stock rom via odin but also have re partition checked? What will that do?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] okty2k:
I don't know exactly what that would do.

You cannot flash another kernel, as there is none yet. :)

You need to be in download mode for kies to recognize (volume down, home, power). It should work to do Emergency firmware recovery in Tools.

Anyway, I am quite sure that running from Odin works. Have you tried to follow the steps I mentioned?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worker99:
No still at work finish in 20 mins. I have tried all that yesterday but Odin still kept on saying no partition thing and kies I did the emergency firmware recovery but it did not connect to the phone. I will try again but this time connect the usb to the back of the computer.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sadekmefti:
Do not flash with re-partition only in an EXTREME case !
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worker99:
what will it do if i do? as i am getting frustrated as then the phone will be a £600 paperweight :(
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sadekmefti:
Repartition is supposedly going to wipe all data on your phone, but it's also a death button that makes you ODIN freeze and making your phone not boot up so proceed with extreme caution :)

It uses the .pit file to repartition the space the pit file holds how much to allocate to /system, /data. If you leave it blank and flash, it'll drop the files your flashing into the existing 'slots'. If you select the pit file and repartition, it'll reallocate.

Only select that if the instructions for your rom require you to do it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] worker99:
Thanks it works. I put the usb lead at the back of my pc and installed the stock rom thanks for your help guys

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BygSii:
New to posting on the forum, but been a member for awhile. I searched all forums, and could not find an answer, so I'm asking for some help.

I have a unlocked rooted Verizon Galaxy S3. Flashed the Hyperdrive Rom. Love it. Except one thing. When I want to send a picture MMS message, or when I receive them, it will fail to send or receive when I'm connected to Wifi. If I turn off Wifi, 4G LTE kicks on and then I can send and receive MMS. With the stock Rom, I remember it doing this automatically. Please help because it is really annoying.

Things I have tried to fix this. 1. Reflashed the Rom. 2. Turn data off then back on. 3. Turn mobile network off then back on, 4. Tried different contacts thinking it could be a certain person who maybe just couldn't receive them. 5. None of these have worked.

Hi everybody,

I used to change dialer skins with DesignLab XDA Skin chooser but suddenly the skin is not changing.

Everytime I try to change it, the old one remains in use. And it's not the standard skin.

Anyone has seen this problem before?

If so how do you reset to the standard skin?

Where is it saved?

Thanks for your help
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Madcap Magician:
Hi Durius,

hmm, I never managed to change Dialer Skins with XDA Skin Chooser on my Himalaya Device. I rememer reading in this forum that the skin Chooser only works with XDA I Phones (but I may be mistaken). Just search the forum.

Instead I use V2R Skin Installer for Phone Skins.

You can get this at http://www.ppc-club.com

Additionally there are quite few Skins. Unfortunately you can D/L only two or three before they start charging you.

To be ahead of hshortt :wink: , there are skins on his side too:

Hi,

I've used XDA skin chooser for sometime on qtek 2020 and it worked but then I could not change the phone skin anymore.

Now I've installed V2R and the question is that I want to use the t-mobile phone skin but I always get the skin previously installed.

So, what I would like to know is how to change the skin by hand...

Is there a way?

Thanks you all

Hi

I think the dialer skin is located ( at least on my O2 XDA2 ) under

windows\v2r\DialerSkins\o2_skin

I guess tmob will have something similar... so just exchanging these files should work

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wingray:
I have 2 XZ. One has SOD, but another has not. After upgrading to .434 AND reformat the SD, SOD gone.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dsteppa:
When a phone has/had 1 bug/malfunction people will do anything to bring that negative point up. You really shouldn't worry about it AT ALL.

Since 434 came out I haven't heard anyone about it. And even @ 350 I barely saw people that faced the problem. Imo it's exaggerated.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wawyed:
It's your choice if you are not sure go try it in a shop first or ask anything you would want to now forehand and we will try to answer it. I haven't heard anyone complaining about sod, only before .350 and some of them.

I think it's a great device. But take into consideration that the screen time is between 4-5h, if you want more you might want to look an Amoled screen. Also it's worth saying that standby battery is Great.

After SOD now new dangrous problem occure. Internal screen crack. Now any one tell me how many hand sets affected with internal or back

You said some very misfortune stuff about XZ. And we all told You that no one from us didn't experience such stuff. And yet, you are continuing with internet "reviews" that this phone have such problems.

No one can tell you will your phone will crack, die or got wet because we do not have crystal ball or any kind of future-telling media.

I have xperia z and the phone is amazing. Would not change it for sgs4 nor htc one.

So, if you wanna trust us, buy this phone. If you wanna trust reseller (obvoius samsung fanboy), don't buy it. Clear and simple ;)

I know that You have not any problems but don't You think that:

- better battery life

- better camera quality

- better WI-FI and 3G reception

- better display contrast and white balance

- easy root method on .307 unbranded BE stock ROM

- many more "better"-s

... is not enoguht good to update? I mean, do whatever You want, but I don't see a reason why You should not do the upgrade :cowboy:
