MDL can't be rooted yet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] troyboytn:
Sure it can....

1. Flash recovery

2. Flash Shabby's custom MDL kernel

3. Flash root files

MDL rooted.....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] eclipxe:
Sorry I should have said can't be rooted with motochipper
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] w8setter:
Is there anyway to include the custom kernel from shabby in the actual mdl update zip that can be flashed via custom recovery and obtain root and custom recovery?...sorry if this has already been asked or applied...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] crawrj:
If you are talking about the ota no. That would break its certificate. If you are talking about my rom it could be. But I don't include a kernel or recovery because everyone has their own preference. It is easy to just have the kernel you want one the phone and flash it with everything else. With twrp you can do it at the same time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] w8setter:
Gottcha just curious. ...thanks for the quick reply...:thumbup:

Re MDL

Hi bro, could you root and deodex the tmo stock rom for me?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Tahde:
There's already a way to do this in the correct Tmo section (T-Mobile development).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] xfullmetal17:
Do I need to flash the kernel again if I just want deodexed instead of odexed?

Stock rooted MDL right now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] guitardoc64:
No. The kernel doesn’t care if the rom is odex or deodexed. The stock kernel worked on both.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jeffyxd:
I'm looking for a little clarification here on what exactly I did to my phone lol when I first got the phone I knew I wanted to root it stock and install a custom recovery for later use and mod my hotspot just as I had done with my E4GT only I wasn't so clear on the whole mdc vs mdl thing so not knowing that the sprint rep automatically updated me to mdl I used chainfire's one click root for mdc and it didn't work I got the nag and no proper root... So I followed josh's advice and Odin restored to mdc stock updated myself and waited for a nag fixed hotspot modded stock mdl rooted rom which came very shortly after that hiccup thanks to this amazing development community we have! :) went ahead and flashed it.. Now later on down the road I was to try some custom TW and aokp roms but ever time I flash one I get stuck at the galaxy s4 boot screen so I restored from my nandroid figured it was a bad download so downloaded it again verified md5 sums flashed again but still boot looping if someone could point me in some direction I would be most grateful I've never had this must trouble b4 I mean I'm not a hard core dev or anything but it usually never stumps me like this..

Also Trying to reinstall twrp but I don't think it will do anything cuz the roms weren't failing just failed to boot..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mdcollins05:
Is anyone else having issues with their camera? I can get the forward facing camera to work but when I open the camera app, it shows all the buttons with a black picture. Pressing the switch camera button works and shows the image. When pressing the record button I get a "Camera failed." warning message.

As an attempt to fix the issue, I've tried doing the following.

1. Factory reset

2. Downloaded the stock MDC from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2258107 and applied using Odin 3.07

3. Taking the OTA updates that follow. First MDL and then MF9.

Each step of the way, I tested the camera with the same results. Additionally, I checked the Software version, Baseband version and Build number to ensure they ended with MDC, MDL or MF9, depending on the step I was at.

I even tried looking at the output of adb logcat but nothing really stands out as I'm not sure what to look for.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Edit: To add to the fun, it seems that if I leave the device alone for a period of time, the rear camera works for about 5 seconds or so, then the image stops updating.. After closing the camera app and going back to it, I get just the black screen with the camera buttons on it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] crawrj:
Unfortunately that sounds like a hardware issue. If it has done the same thing on all three versions, I don't see how it could be software. Did you remove the plastic ring around the lens? If not, remove it and see if that fixes it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mdcollins05:
I was kind of afraid of that. Is there anything I should be concerned with if I take it into a Sprint store? I would imagine they shouldn't have an issue replacing it as I got it a few days ago.

Thanks for your help!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] crawrj:
If you are not rooted and stock just take it in. If you are custom make a backup and restore everything back to stock.

So is there a catch or a three year timelimit or something?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malybru:
Hi,

To quote from "Dropbox":

Is my Samsung phone or tablet eligible for the free space promotion?

« Back to Help Center

If you have a brand new Samsung phone or tablet with Dropbox already installed, you may be eligible to earn 48 GB of free space for up to two years. To qualify:

The Dropbox app must be pre-loaded on your device.

You need to complete at least five steps from our Get Started guide.

Your carrier must be participating in the promotion.

Make sure Dropbox is pre-loaded

Dropbox must be "pre-loaded" on your brand new phone or tablet, which means that the Dropbox app already came installed without the need to download it from the Google Play store.

If the Dropbox app is pre-loaded on your device, you may qualify for 48 GB of bonus space for up to one year.

Additionally, some devices that have the Dropbox app pre-loaded may also have the Dropbox "out-of-box experience," which means that the first time you turn on the device, you'll be asked to sign in to Dropbox or create a new account. If your device has the out-of-box experience, you may qualify for 48 GB of bonus space for up to two years.

The first Dropbox account that signs in to the app on the device will get 48 GB of free space (assuming the other conditions are met). Each account is only able to claim this promotion once.

Complete the Get Started guide

To claim your extra space, you need to complete at least five steps from our Get Started guide. Please note that some steps require your desktop computer.

Make sure your carrier is participating

Some carriers have opted out of the promotion on phones otherwise eligible. Among those not currently participating are the following carriers:

United States: AT&T

Japan: NTT DoCoMo

Korea: SK Telecom

Verizon customers: Some Samsung devices on Verizon may be eligible for 48 GB of bonus space for one or two years. As described above, your device needs to be pre-loaded with the Dropbox app, or pre-loaded with the Dropbox out-of-box experience, to receive the applicable promotion. If your device does not have the Dropbox app pre-loaded, then it is not eligible.

Whatever it is ,we know that it IS limited...

Sammy is 2 years as long as the network operator is taking part, certainly in the UK the UK they are all 2 year 48gig deals.

Create a new account then check your email, complete any 5 steps in the starting guide and it enables your space.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiobb:
When I've set up my phone, in the initial process there was a question to sign in or create new Dropbox account, I signed in with my current one after which I received e-mail to claim the free space. The additional 48 GB are valid for 24 months.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winwiz:
I received the extra space on my S3 but when adding my account onto my S4 and I didn't get the extra space. Looks to be one per account?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidizen:
Yes this does seem to be the case, i always create a new account got 200 gig of space between 4 account now lol

What happens if after to your data after two years will they delete it :eek:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malybru:
Hi,

They give you notice that it is about to get reduced.

Presumably ,just enough time to "buy" some space before you have to move it.

:)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meeejay:
Hi, Can you please send me a link to increase my space as well? I already have a basic account on right now.

Thanks,

mihir
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @xDeepS:
I didnt get the 50GB free cause I already have 50GB from my S3... somewhere in the fineprint it mentions if you already had a similar promo on your account you wont be eligible. Blows but ... its okay. I have 45gb free. :cyclops:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malybru:
Hi,

The link comes after you apply for it.

On the phone, you should have the drop box app.

Go on it, sign up and register.

They will send you the link in the reply email.

Yes but here in xda-developers we have many skilled devs who will accept the challenge and port it for One. ;)

it shouldn't be very hard anyway, fortunately they have the same screen resolution so it doesn't require a lot of resizing...

unless a leak happens im 100% sure the nexus will get 4.3 first
[One (M7) General] EclipzeRemix:
I think it will probably come out within a couple of months, so yea the N4 will probably get 4.3 first
[One (M7) General] matt95:
the n4 will get the 4.3 first, it has 1 week left to be released so...
[One (M7) General] tsekh501:
I'd rather HTC skip 4.2.2 and go directly to 4.3

HTC is doing a developer presentation at the Google I/O for features not available on 4.2.2... A number of sites suggested that this means these features will be included in 4.3. But this also means HTC has access to the code of the next Android revision, and hopefully this mean they are already working on a 4.3 update for the One.

Never, the latest releases are always reserved for Nexus devices, plus thanks to HTC bloatware it'll take months of work to overload it. I'll wait for the 4.3 AOKP for One.

This would be worth porting but the leak is watermarked
[One (M7) General] Tidbits:
The things that were leaked were long before 4.2.0 was released. There was numerous talks about it. It's just a rehash from last year.

Manufacturers get early dibs on the next version of Android. Which is why it's BS they take as long as they do.

I don't find that to be a negative. Nexus 4 owners are just beta testers for everybody else. 4.2 stank the place out hence no one else adopted it and went straight to 4.2.2
[One (M7) General] GrantB13:
I seriously hope HTC brings this update to the One at the same time if not before the DNA. It would be a slap in the face to not update their newest device to the same level as the older model.

I can either see them doing that or see them having a buddy buddy thing going on with Google and HTC is already working on 4.3 for the One since HTC is giving some info on the new features of Android. As long as it doesn't take months and months, I think going straight to 4.3 would be acceptable.
[One (M7) General] Cyberz22:
Sweet. I hope it gets out soon!
[One (M7) General] gtg465x:
Meh, coming from a Nexus 4, I can endure a wait for 4.2. I rarely toggled settings in the notification pulldown on my Nexus. I usually just leave Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on all the time because I use them so often, and I usually keep brightness on auto. I barely made use of lockscreen widgets. I used DashClock, but honestly, it was almost pointless because it required the same number of actions as just pulling down the notification shade from the lockscreen and clicking a notification. Plus our productivity lockscreen is already more functional than the lockscreen on stock Android ever was. Keyboard with swype style typing in 4.2? We already have it. Group texting support in 4.2? We already have it. The only thing I'm really looking forward to is the ability to expand notifications with a single finger. Using two fingers is tough.
[One (M7) General] altimax98:
I agree that the features in 4.2 aren't earth shattering, but they are nice to have.

As for having access to the source ahead of time Google announced the PDK last year at I/0 that would allow developers to have access to it ahead of time, a few months in most cases
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] me myself and i:
Hello people

I'm using the galaxy player 5.0 running a stock rom with custom kernel from which I switched to from an ics rom which does not have the camera working ics roms. the reason I switched from stock to an ics is because the proxy setting in gingerbread don't apply to any apps other than the web browser. Since my home network (which I have no control over) is firewalled with a proxy I cant even use the market app or sync an account or use facebook app. I had to switch back because I found that I needed the camera way to much plus I needed more stability with my roms also I needed more memory for some of the apps that I run and with ics roms I simply don't have that.

I know that there are very skilled developers on here that could probably build a tweak in a flashable zip or maybe even develop an app that would apply the proxy settings on apps like in ice cream sandwich. Maybe they're is some coding from ice cream sandwich that can be transferred over or something.

I know that very few people have this problem but any help whatsoever will be appreciated.

Hello XDA users....

I think you know it all, that the ROMkitchen is a fine application to get our device nearly perfect.

But the ROMkitchen is out of date. This means many applications aren´t not in the actual version. Therefore Auburnham and I thought to update the applications.

The problem is, that the amount of added applications to the kitchen is to big to make this happen by us two. Because of this problem I´m searching for some people, which wants to help.

Another problem is, that you need for this a device that haven´t got installed that piece of software. This means that when you want to help me with Phonext for example, you must have a device without any version of Phonext installed.

So, if you are going to help me make a snapshot of your device with the ssnap - Application.

Install the software.

Make again an Snapshot of your device with the ssnap - Application.

Send these two files to xda@bauer-stefan.net with inforamtion about the program you have installed and the exact Version you have installed.

When I´ve got analyzed the two files i will reply to you with a wishlist of files that have been created on your device. After sending me the files, i can update the kitchen....

IF there are any quesions or anything else, feel free to contact me....

Regards
