Um yeah, they will fix this on newer devices, and normally do. I can count several times just remembering my own work, let alone exploits from others.

But yeah people need to be patient.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dean1650:
My 2 cents:

I'm going to make an educated guess that the locked bootloader is related to Samsung Enterprise Services and their new BYOD (bring your own device) marketing campaigns. They are also marketing "KNOX" which shows a customizable "secure" bootloader. They, and At&T are going after Blackberries business and where better to start than the good old US of A. If the BYOD is viable, than all phones manufactured for US markets would have to be secure. I believe that the S4 had been preliminary approved by the Pentagon for use by the feds. Knowing a little about corporate security and Blackberries RIM, this might be a good guess. If so, kiss the S4 goodbye. I'm not going to buy a US variant until this plays out for 6 months or more.

Knox has nothing to do with the bootloader and the idea that we can use custom kernels/unlock bootloader using knox is a misinterpretation of Knox PR release/feature page.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Dean1650:
That's not what I said and I know what I've read. I'll wait and see.

"They are also marketing "KNOX" which shows a customizable "secure" bootloader."

Thats what you said, and it sounds like knox has something to do with the bootloader.

The kernel/unlock thing I was referring to wasn't said by you, but was spread a bit on here/google plus/twitter

You can't trust everything you read.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] dbg11235:
I've been reading many defeatist statements about whether or not future S4 buyers (those procuring phones after the unlock exploitis fixed) will ever be able to benefit from custom firmware. Most likely someone may simply find a new way to unlock the device. Since the thread has changed to the "add your two cents thread," I would like to reiterate how important it is that the release of this type of exploit be delayed as long as possible. The less people have the ability to unlock their devices the smaller the development community and its support base becomes.

On a side note, "bootloader" is preprogrammed in the Swype dictionary. High five.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jeboo:
There's a lot of doom and gloom going around lately. The game is definitely changing, and so must we. What I would speculate (as if we need more) is that JTAG'in is going to become much more prevalent/necessary in the near future. As content(DRM) and functionality increase, so does the need for control by the manuf/carrier. It will be fun to see how this plays out..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] highaltitude:
This post does make some sense to me. I work in IT at one location of hundreds, for an 11 Billion Dollar Fortune 500 company. Android is "contraband" in their eyes as far as the company is concerned. They have approved iPhones for use with company business functions (email, network connection etc.), but do not allow Android phones due to them being a "security risk device" They feel that an Android device is too vulnerable. Obviously I love my Android phones over iPhone, but if I want a company phone (that they will pay for) I would have to get an iPhone. Not sure why all the whining in here. Isnt a new phone enough to play with for a while, as we wait? People are such babies nowadays. Good things come to those who wait. Has the Android modding development community ever failed to bring what you seek?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Thermalwolf:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Jack45:
Some interesting thought processes (and some fluff) but, in the end, I believe we may be over-thinking this. Bootloader hacked, use one of the resulting custom ROMs, don't get sucked in to OTA updates. It just may be as simple as that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jimmydee62:
I agree I have been reading this post for days and am anxious to see the bootloader unlocked but this topic at this point should be locked until Dan releases his unlock.

[HTC One S] Valantar:
Hi

I have an issue with wifi on my One S: From time to time it disconnects from wifi, and won't reconnect until I delete the network password and start from scratch. When this happens, the phone will list the network as "out of range" even if I'm right next to the router. Setting the router settings from B/G/N and WPA/WPA2 to G/N and WPA2 improved this a bit, but it still happens. This is the second One S that I'm having this issue on (my first one met an untimely death), so I'd guess this is an issue someone else than me has experienced as well. Does anyone have any tips?

The phone is running the most recent OTA stock ROM, unrooted and S-ON. The wifi router is a D-link DIR-825. Other devices (two laptops, a HTC Sensation and a Hero, an Xbox, a PS3, a Kindle) have no trouble connecting or staying connected.

Any help would be appreciated!
[HTC One S] rustykwak:
strange go to wifi menu advanced settings if best wifi is ticked untick! not sure if this will resolve but you are limited on an unrooted device!
[HTC One S] real187:
Limited on a unrooted device is bullcrap!! But indeed check adv set on device

Is there much traffic of other ssid on the same channel? Use a app like wifianalyzer to check best channel to use.

Reset the 825 it will then change to the least crowded chanel, or do it manually Are u using both freq? Only set the 2.4 freq.

Also you can rename the ssid on the 825 maybe it helps.

Change to N only if all devices support it.

Well this is what happened, I did a full wipe without making a back up and installed a new custom rom but when I boot my phone it just stops at the HTC logo. So I tried some solutions posted in this forum but since I can only open my phone through bootloader i have limited options. I'm really desperate I miss my phone. :(

In bootloader my phones saids its unlocked

Make your phone s-off and then try install rom.
[HTC EVO 3D] ardanai:
you can doing this step:

1- full wipe

2- install rom with full boot image ( these rom have boot.img in zip file such as coolICS rom )

3- do not reboot after installation

4- drag boot.img from that rom into your adb folder

5- reboot phone to fastboot and connect usb ( you see fastboot-usb in phone screen )

6- open cmd in adb folder ( hold shift+ right click on blank space in adb folder then select "open cmd here" )

7- in cmd type: fastboot flash boot boot.img

8- reboot

I think these will be helpfully

Hi!

I rooted my wt19i phone and installed a 5.0.2.7 recovery.

Then I went to recovery and wipe/format everything for the new rom, but the rom wasn't on the SD.

Then I reboot my phone, but I couldn't step in again into the recovery.

What is the problem?

Why can't I go into recovery?

Pls, help!

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mauam:
That's because maybe you click in the option format sd card. When you install a new rom, just wipe cache, wipe dalvik & if in the thread rom said that you need to wipe data, you must wipe it. Not format anything.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Tonchi:
So, in the mount and storage menu doesn't have to format, okay.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Bolussimo:
I think You have locked bootloader, so when You wipe everything, doesn't install new ROM and reboot device - You have also wiped recovery :P That's why You wasn't able to boot into it : )
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] RavinduSha:
That's right. If you haven't flashed a kernel with a recovery mode installing a recovery by any other method installs it to the system partition.

you can find a flashable zip for cwm recovery in themes and apps section. remember to flash it whenever you change your rom before exiting recovery mode.

Hi,

is there a way to control the Rom media scanner - better than ".nomedia files in directory"

The Problem is if you have a lot of Media Files on the SD Card (e.g. > 10000) the Scanner had a lot of work to index that. So far ok.

But every time you load/unload the SD Card or plug in the USB Cable to the PC for "Storage Usage" the scanner begin to rescann the whole files.

This need so much time and until the scan is complete your Media Library in't ready to listen the musik

Any Suggestions?
[LG Optimus 2x] Impact7:
I really can understand you., I had the same problem with all LG ICS ROMs and it really sucked. Really..

The only solution I found was to switch to CM based ROM. It fixes that and a huge amount of bugs LG did.
[LG Optimus 2x] alexander555:
May I have to do that.

For now I have a workaround that works for me.

1. Put all music files in one sd card directory

2. Disable media Scan only for this directory with ".nomedia". You can use a app like "StudioKUMA.nomedia" to do that

3. Use an alternative Media Player that not use the Media Database.. e.g. FileBased MediaPlayer like "Musik Folder Player"

The bad part on this is you lose the option to control the music via the LG LockScreen.

i always think about using my bluetooth headset for regular phone lines.. i did find two ways but none of them worked:

1- a pc software that will enable headset profile on pc so i can use my jabra with my pc but this wont solve the program because the software which i found is not stable+ ive never found a modem which would enable using windows sound system to make a "real" phone calls

2- jabra offers an adapter for bluetooth headsets.. this adapter can connect with "any" blutooth headset and converts what it receives to regular 2.5mm jack...

so if i can find any adapter that would change the 2.5mm jack to regular 3.5mm jackS then i can use any bluetooth headset with speakerphone jacks in my modem....

the problem is that i couldnt find such an adapter.. put in mind is that 2.5mm is not ordinary 2.5mm.. it has one line for mono headphones and anothet for mic.. so i need an adapter that would change this to TWO separate jacks one for mic and one for headphones...

if someone heard of such adapter please help me..
