[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xxhorseriderxxx:
They're barring root at the kernel level on the i9500/i9505, but the difference with those models is that they have unlocked bootloaders and custom recovery with kernel source. It's possible to just install a custom recovery with ODIN and make a modified kernel (both of which are common practice in rooting anyway). They're just making it so that if you want to obtain root, you have to have physical access to the device to flash through ODIN, which is a lot safer in the long run. All this means is that Sally can't be exploited by running an APK or a malicious file to get root without her consent. (It also means that her "techy" boyfriend will have to understand ODIN to get root from now on,)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] k0nane:
The T-Mo S4 has an unlocked bootloader. This is much ado about nothing. Read the last few pages of the thread.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] TheAtheistOtaku:
i think we are flipping out over nothing. this is probably just for government phones. I think samsung is smart enough to know the heat they will get if they implement this across the board.

Worse comes to worse, carriers start to implement this, and tmobile doesnt seem interested in doing anything of the sort. the verizon and at&t guys are the ones that should be worried then.

but like i said before. making a mountain out of a molehill
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mr. bird:
It's for security reasons. You will still be able to install a custom kernel and have root. One minute people complain about an exploit the next they complain about not being secure.. it really isnt a big deal. Well I'm not a dev so I can't really say it's not a big deal but it is what it is and you'll still be able to have root.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] k0nane:
I am, I can, and I did. Truly nothing to see here folks. Mr. bird here read the thread and gets it right.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] KCRic:
Come on now. How tech savvy does one have to be to use ODIN. Honestly, my MyTouch 3G was more difficult to root than this thing with ODIN. Point, click, profit. I'm sure all those "techy" boyfriends will be rooting Sammy phones just as easily as they do now. At some point someone will figure out a one click solution anyway.

I agree 100% though, this really is nothing to worry about. I welcome it honestly. Its a great bump for security. Given the current state of things with the NSA and whatever else trying to siphon data like damn vampires and hack everything in sight like Jason. Though I'd say this is more for businesses, we need all we can get. As it sits, we're about as bad off as Windows 95 would be on today's internet surfing warez sites.

Odin Is pretty easy. I'm not that tech savvy with phones but when I had to use Odin I caught on quick.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Michael Hill:
its a better discussion for all.....Samsung is locking out root at the kernel level

This is the first time I've seen this implemented on the kernel level. It is by far the most effective way

to prevent root as it keeps you from being able to switch to the root user. Without the ability to do that,

all software exploits are worthless. And good luck exploiting the kernel itself.

This is worrisome stuff - it may not affect those of you with a device right now but if it ends up being enacted

across the board, you better hope that you never break it.

[Oppo Find 5] vulvassic park:
Hey all, I'm currently using an Oppo Find 5. I bought it while in the United States for a few months. I've just returned home to Canada now, and I seem to be unable to receive any data on the Wind network. I was able to get on the network itself, make and receive calls/texts but I don't seem to have any data activity. Does anyone have any idea on what I could do to resolve this? I went in to Settings and enabled 3G and Data, but that didn't seem to do anything.

Any advice would be very welcome!

Thank you so much from a long time lurker first time poster.

Wish we could just the .12 update. Seen all the before and after pics and they look great. It will be nice to get 4.3 though.

Hope the Developers are all over this. :)

We are on Sprint, so we'll be getting 4.3 about a week before 5.0 comes out.... With any luck.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] david279:
What 5.0?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] panda.bear:
Agreed. Two years ago I bought the Nexus S 4G from Sprint thinking I wouldn't have to rely on Sprint for OTA updates but I was wrong. OTA updates consistently came months after their GSM counterparts so I ended up rooting the device and installing CM and then Slim which in retrospect was the best decision I ever made while owning that phone. Hopefully as time goes by we will get more choice and variety in terms of custom roms for the ONE although with the Galaxy 4 shipping with 4.2.2 I have to imagine HTC will be sending out an update soon so it can better go head-to-head with its biggest competitor.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mdeathike:
i dont think thats fair. When i had my S2 we always got the updates before any of the other carriers in the us.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] aman1127:
I just got off the s2, updates sucked. Thankfully the guys here got rooted leaks for us. I think jellybean it's dropped a month ago. I'm really waiting on AOSP for this
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] BrianBaker:
Well to be fair. Sprint has been ahead of the game lately with some of their updates being before other US carriers.. Example: The damn Evo LTE got jelly bean months before the flagship One X on At&t.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] xboxfanj:
OTAs on nexus devices shouldn't matter if you're on xda. The 4g got Roms just as fast as the gsm.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eXplicit815:
Not to mention, HTC already has Android 4.3 from Google, and they've been testing it. With as big of a Saving Grace this phone needs to be for HTC, I would assume they would get this out as quickly as possible. We'll see 4.2.2 soon, but I think we'll see 4.3 sooner than later.

Hi

I bought a kingston 512mb sd, but my xdaII is reporting it as a 483,55 mb size...

I already tried to format it with FAT32 but didn't solve it

any idea ?

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] [Krueger]Dr.Stein:
Memory

I ain't no IT guru but this much I know.

There's this memory mystery which has been around that I tried reading about before however after attempting to digest the article I'd rather it remained a mystery.

:mrgreen:

It's normal Bro. Hopefully some expert will provide a proper explanation for you. In the mean time I hope you can take my word for it.

Here's a screenshot of my 512MB SD card memory.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] BRosenow:
The main reason for the difference in size is this, even though your SD is a "memory" card, your PPC treats it like a disk drive - you format it with a FAT file system.

FAT stands for File Allocation Table, meaning that there is a table stored on the media (just like on a hard drive or floppy drive) that stores the location of the files on the media so they can be located quickly and easily, since files are not stored contiguously. Think of it as an index.

The larger the media, the larger the FAT. For instance, the following are my SD cards and their FAT sizes: 128MB/8MB; 256MB/16MB; 512MB/32MB; 1GB/58MB.

HTH
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hbatista:
argh

:shock:

How didn't remember that ? :roll:

You know, the card was so much expensive than i wanted to pay, that when i tested it, i just felt reaaaaallly mad! :)

(i was just thinking how much does 29mb cost!)

thanks for the replys and fast help!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] bob190cm:
Actually, there was a patch, that allowed to use the space, that is not physically taken by FAT32: FAT32 reserves 32b for each possible catalog. If your catalogs are only, for instance, 12b long - you don't need resting 20b, but it's reserved by FAT, so you can't store anything there! The bigger storage you have, the more it reserves! The patch allowes you use the spase unless it's physically taken.

I'll try to find the patch till the end of the week and post it.

PS: you can also format your card in FAT16 or even FAT8 - both will take less space!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] hbatista:

that would be great! thanks!

Sorry hbatista for giving wrong info.

This software can root and unroot Infinity in 1 click (and 1 reboot). It is in chinese anyway.

It comes so handy that skips the complicated steps of rooting the phone.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] intheb0x:
Have to say I'm pretty impressed.

Due to a financial bind, I had to sell my galaxy note 2 today and had to get another phone, both through Craigslist, so I picked up the og for 160 cash, then sold my note 2 titanium for 400.

I think I got a BARGAIN on this Optimus, the thing is a beast.

The note 2 was such a powerful device with superb battery life, honestly battery life was incredible on it, I couldn't imagine it would be so good, could go a easy 14 hours with extremely heavy usage, sad to say I can bet some penny's that the battery won't come close to compare on this Optimus, since I bought it at 35%battery and it was dead a hour later lol.

Needless to say I need to get a car charger again, lol

So where do I go from here?

I'm mainly interested in a more stock rom but something fast, stable and good with battery.

I'm willing to go non stockish as well, what everyone's rom and kernel picks?

I never rooted the note 2,it was THAT good lol and I'm usually the type to root ab rom everything
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Anon9mouz:
Dude I feel u man I came from note2, Go phone Fusion 2, Nexus 4, then S4, now LGOG and love it. Been on some crazy phone switch ups these past few months.

One thing i can say about coming from sammy threads it got some stickys to read up on to understand your device pull get all the essential things needed to start customizing. So im on the hunt looking around lurking trying to find thing. But if u find out first lmk and vice versa kk. I do remember u tho so howdy welcome and lets be noobs but not noobs lol:p

[AT&T LG Optimus G] razholio:
160 for an LGOG? those things are going for 400 on ebay... I'd worry about the legitimacy of the source. Hopefully at&t won't shut you down all of a sudden when the owner calls it in... Here's hoping you just caught an impulse seller in desperate need for cash. I've found a few of those in the past.

yer not likely to get note2 battery life, but with JB, yer idle drain should be in the 1-1.5%/hr range even with LTE. screen-on will drain faster, of course, but the LGOG screen is not nearly as thirsty as the SAMOLED in the note2. With the screen on, I might do 10%/hr, so that 35% in one hour is hopefully an aberration and not an indication of a bad battery. Good luck.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Matt James:
Screw rom's man. Keep it stock, upgrade to JB (over the air through AT&T) and leave it as is. Everything works and works incredibly well. No need to stick a ROM on there and lose a feature like Bluetooth or have buggy SMS like some people are reporting. This phone is PERFECTLY fine stock.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Neroga:
Give RootBox a try. That has, by far, been my favorite ROM. Not just for the LGOG, but in general. houstonn is a boss when it comes to keeping it updated and it's been rock solid for me. I'm gonna pop a few new scripts on my battery tweaks thread that'll help with CPU scaling on smartmax and dancedance which should definitely help with screen on time. I was a stock freak as well..

[AT&T LG Optimus G] intheb0x:
Yeah 160,i basically stole it, and back when this device first came out, I was on sprint, so i played with it in the store and really liked it, but was not sure about LG and it's support, plus the fact it launched with ics was a big turn off . But when I needed to sell the note, I needed something comparable as In quad core and ram, so I searched around almost got the nexus 4 but seen this for 160 and couldn't pass it up, for some reason they aren't that popular here and it had been listed for one for a week at 180. Only three others were in Milwaukee Craigslist, but they were 300+.this phone doesn't seem as well known as others for whatever reason.

Its a really awesome device and I'm impressed with it in every way including battery, surprisingly I don't really miss my note much but the build quality on this device is much better than the note.

I'm running it naked, i need a case badly as I'm starting to see scratching and such on the sides and back any recommendations?

So what's the benefits of running the op g pro radio and nexus 3.3?

I updated it to jelly bean as well, it had 3 updates before it finally got JB.
