[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarcoLLapsE:
Hey mates:cowboy:

At every ROM boot iam getting a message:

"Security policy restricts use of external SD card"

How can i solve this mess?:confused::confused::confused:

Couldnt find any solution =( and this problem is rather popular

1. It shows even WITHOUT my ext SD card, so the problem starts in internal storage.

Both storages are working flawlessly.

2. There is no any device administrators.

Great thanks in advance!:good:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
Try

Settings->Developer Options->Protect SD Card
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarcoLLapsE:
No luck man:(

Any suggestions?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
Hmm.. No idea... So I first suggest that you install an app from the play store that generates log files, reboot your device,after the problem occurs immediately generate a log file, and upload it here, let's see whether we can trace the problem
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarcoLLapsE:
First of all here is the Mirko's answer (coz its on Disaster v11):

And the logcat attached (only boot, then connected as UMS to PC, disconnected)

Never got such a mes before:silly:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
Looks like you will need a mod fix for that since it's only a string which gets called, lol he actually said that? Hmm maybe there is no text search in his editor or he must be pissed and tired to search for it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarcoLLapsE:
I dunno bro.

Just a perfect ROM for me and a little eyecutting problem that nutz me :p

I think this mod can only be done by myself coz nobody need it:crying:

Is it possible just delete this message from the system?

Do u know how can i handle this? Iam not so smart in compilling but smth can try with guides:cool:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
You probably will have to edit your framework.jar file, hmmm you wanna try it yourself? So are you experienced in Java programming? All you have to do is do a text search for it in a editor(modify dex file) and replace it with a null value or delete the public variable which calls the string or override the public var with null.

Edit : Do it only if you're sure enough, also if it ain't from the framework, then you will have to search around your modded apk by finding which all gets initialized during bootup.

Edit: ah I forgot that the dev mentioned "media scanner" you won't need to check around apks at all you might need to check out services.jar also though.

Edit :i mentioned class file it was a sudden mistake, I actually meant the "dex" file, silly me, I corrected it, so it's generally like this, decompile dex, edit, recompile, repack jar.

---------- Post added at 03:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:26 AM ----------

Quite frankly doing the above for just a harmless string is quite unnecessary, just enjoy or find a major bug that needs fixing like a bug which hinders actual functionality a inform the related dev, alongside mention this and he might fix this also.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarcoLLapsE:
I will try smth for sure bro:cowboy:

Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_below_my_lord:
Something? Lol? Be sure not to mess with those jar files too much highly risky... Besides corrupting your startup and ui and functions, I don't know what all it can do...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] technobuddha:
I've been looking for a solution to this "security policy restricts the use of external sd card", and I use DiasterRom v11 as well.

The only difference is this.

I took the ROM and used "kitchen" on it, as I wanted to remove some apks.

Well I used kitchen to extract everything,

did nothing to it, and let kitchen rebuild it.

then I installed it, and that's when I get the error: "security policy restricts the use of external sd card".

when I install the original ROM, I get no errors.

I also posted the same question here:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/help/modified-diasterrom-v11-kitchen-t2773615

So any help would be appreciated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AustinTech:
I'm hoping someone has a solution to this very annoying issue I'm having with my Note 2.

It's Verizon - stock - 4.1.2

When I dial a phone number and put the phone to my ear the screen goes black - as it should. But when I move the phone away from my ear the screen doesn't come back on. It stays blacked out and I can't get it to come back on with the home or even the power button.

This means I can't hang up, I can't put the phone on speakerphone mode, I can't use the touchtone pad to navigate through menus. It's made my phone a real pain in the arse.

Anyone have any thoughts on what to do or what's going wrong?:fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] zaksween:
A couple things I'm thinking... Try pulling out your spen when it happens.. Do a battery pull if nothing else.. It might be the proximity censor... Do you have a screen protector on it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AustinTech:
I'll try the s-pen, maybe that will work.

I've got a screen protector, but it's the same one I've had on since I first bought the phone months ago. I've pulled the battery several time, it's the only way to hang up!

I too think it's the proximity censor, which sucks because I don't want to trade in my phone for some refurb that's gone through God knows what.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] zaksween:
Good luck...those were the only things I could think of. ..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hamsterskate:
Take a look to this thread http://forums.androidcentral.com/t-...when-making-call-screen-doesnt-turn-back.html maybe it help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dragonstalker:
Check your case and your screen protector. and clean the proximity sensor. Know it sounds weird, but have problems before with screen protectors getting oil on them when placed to the ear and the sensor thinking you are still close. Also lighting from cases makes the sensor go fruity. Not a science but worth a check.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AustinTech:
THANKS! I used the compressed air method - I blew it through the ear hole and open the back of the phone and blew it through any openings I saw. Now the sensor works perfectly again. :highfive::highfive:

Glad it works!

but i agree with you,everyone who made a ROM for the LG P990....thanks:good:
[LG Optimus 2x] machoman1337:
On a Nexus 4 and very happy with it (apart from the annoying use of a micro SIM)! The lack of lag on pretty much everything is just stupefying. Even pengus77's optimizations couldn't prevent CM10 from having lag every now and then (Tegra 2 bugs and 512 MB of ram are a tough obstacle to work around).

Despite all the issues it put me through (long wait for ICS sources, call bug in the first two months of CM10, etc) I do kinda miss my P990... I learned so much about Android thanks to all the work that had to be done to make it suitable for daily use.

Many thanks to all the devs, including but not limited to RC, tonyp, and pengus (the only guys whose work I really used). And of course marsgod for solving the call bug.

Hello I am having some problems when trying to save wifi passwords on my ones. every time I shut off my phone they do not save and I have to re enter them. Is there any fix for this?

it was doing it on both trickdroid and android revolution. I have the ATT version.

Any help would be great, thanks for your time.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Monk4Life:
This is a known issue. I believe the fix is to choose international version when you flash the Rom and not ATT. You will find more about it if you search the trickdroid thread.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guich:
In TrickDroid FAQ, there is a temp fix, try it ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] powerwagon:
Had the exact same issue..as the guy above me stated, just choose international version instead of att version and you will be just fine. Good luck!

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Mr_Jay_jay:
I'm pretty good when to comes to rooting, I just odin to stock and upgraded to

latest (MD5), but I didn't take into consideration that there's not a pre-rooted tar file out, I really hate to odin back to UVLC to root and then upgrade... anyone have any idea how to root it?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] KingKostas:
There's a rooted file already ..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: root

This new upgrade is pre-rooted.

No need to root it at all.

Here is the direct download link for the new Samsung Galaxy S3 T999 Official 4.1.2 stock rooted Jellybean rom:

- http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22946563261203914

Just flash it using cwm or twrp like any other zipfile rom.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Mr_Jay_jay:
That's the thing.. I'm pure stock.. I don't have a recovery, I tried to odin a recovery, but it wont stick since I'm not rooted...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: sure way to root the first time.

Here is a step by step guide:

Easy and sure way to root your phone - Here is s step by step guide:

After you have followed these instructions your phone will be in the same condition

as it was the day you have purchased it except with the benefit of being rooted.

Download the stock-rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 Jellybean v4.1.1 T999 firmware: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390169635556426451

After downloading make a folder on your computer's desktop and unzip the

file using Winzip or 7zip so the .TAR file is in the new folder you just made.

Download and extract Odin into the same folder you made containing the TAR file

Here is the link for Odin: http://d-h.st/Q14

Download ODIN which is required for flashing the stock rooted firmware (a windows app)

Download the Odin Flash firmware for T999 Tmobile then copy it to the same folder as Odin

Run Odin by double clicking the Odin.exe within the same folder as the TAR file you extracted

Turn off your phone and boot into

DOWNLOAD MODE

(Volume Down + Home + Power Hold until phone powers up, then release and press Volume Up to enter Download Mode)

Once in Download Mode, connect the USB/Charger cable to the phone and plug into the USB port on your computer.

You should now see a COM** port listed toward the top-left of Odin (under ID:COM)

Click on the PDA button in the middle-right area of Odin.

Browse to and select the Firmware you downloaded (TAR file)

Make sure Auto-Reboot and F. Reset Time are the only options checked and that PDA is the only other thing checked.

TRIPLE CHECK your settings and that you have selected the correct firmware for your model phone and are using the correct options.

If you are using a laptop, make absolutely sure you are plugged in, or if on battery, that it is charged enough and will not go into sleep mode during flash.

Click Start to begin the flash. This will take a while, so be patient!

Once complete, in the top-left box in Odin, it will say PASS and the phone should have automatically rebooted.

You may unplug the phone and close Odin if you wish.

Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the system to boot the first time and then build its cache!

(It may seem to take a long time on first boot, this is normal so you must be very patient!!!)

Good Luck!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] indnracn2:
Hello curious i used that file from that link but the update is good but the baseband version is still t999UVDLJC any idea how i can get onto the new baseband version. My build is new JZ054K.T999UVDMD5 but baseband is old still.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: baseband

The reason is that Jody (the developer) removed the new RADIO/MODEM image

from the rom so everyone including those people who have AT&T Unlocked phones

can use the rom.

If you want the original baseband/modem/radio cwm/twrp flashable zipfile here

is the UVDMD5 Radio/Baseband Download Link - http://db.tt/RgrCGufl

Only flash this if you have a Samsung Galaxy S3 T999 device and you have Tmobile service.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] krad42:
You can root same way as all prevouse stock ROMs. Install custom recovery with Odin and then flash superuser in recovery.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Except for one thing. After odin flashing recovery you cannot let the device restart. Everytime you boot up it checks for correct recovery and if its not there it rewrites it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: root

That's one of the main reasons I always suggest NOT to odin flash the stock T999 4.1.2 tar rom

but instead flash the cwm/twrp T999 pre-rooted deoxidized 4.1.2 rom which Jody setup for us.

People should have been warned about what you said before they allowed the OTA update to

upgrade their phones unless they don't want root access and want their phone to be pure stock.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Its all been covered pretty thoroughly, and all folks need to do is read! I know its asking an awful lot for some.

I haven't looked at jovys but there are two files that cause the recovery rewrite, and if he didnt remove them his rom will do the same.

If I remember right they are:

Install-recovery.sh

Recovery-on-boot.p

The second is wrong im pretty sure, but its something similar. Check my firmware thread and it should be there.

Hope that helps.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Still need to Odin stock to get the updated bootloader/rpm/tz. Unless you want to flash them yourself. That's why everyone suggests root66.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: root66

I was just looking in your "Firmware/OTAs T999(V) Official, Leaked & Root66 FW & OTA Updates" thread

and downloaded the "root66_TMO_T999UVDMD5.7z" which is the pre-rooted Odin flash 4.1.2 firmware.

The reason I downloaded it is that I just want to have a odin flash rooted backup of 4.1.2 in case I need it in the future.

I wanted to ask if this firmware includes the modem/radio in the TAR file?

If it does, what is the filename of the modem/radio file? (I need to remove it).

My phone is an Unlocked AT&T I747 Galaxy S3 which I am using with Tmobile service and

I do not want to flash the modem/radio since it will not work with my phone.

Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
Modem is NON-HLOS.bin. Can't remove it, because the md5 check will fail.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Maybe ask mrrobinson if he can give you any pointers on how to remove it correctly. The steps he uses to create root66 would likely work to remove the modem as well.

Do you have the same partition layout as us? If not, dont use any of the firmware. If so you can always flash it and then flash your correct radio after.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: md5

What if I remove the .MD5 from the filename ?

I don't think that Odin requires the .MD5 extension, I know I have Odin flashed

roms a while back which did not have an MD5.

---------- Post added at 08:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:07 PM ----------

I am sure I have the same partition layout, I am using the cwm/twrp flashable zipfile of the pre-rooted UVDMD5 T999 4.1.2 rom.

Before I got the Unlocked AT&T Galaxy S3 I had the galaxy S2 which I used with AT&T network and flashed the

root66 Odin flash roms before and had no problems, but since I am with Tmobile now I need to remove the radio file.

Since I am with Tmobile now, I never odin flashed roms due to the fact that they all contain the radio file.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Mobile Odin will flash without the md5 extension. Cant remember for sure with pc odin. I may try it later tonight to see for sure. You can also deselect the modem when flashing via M.O. in case you didnt know, though

I am also pretty sure you have the same layout as the t999. I appreciate you taking the time to do it in a way that is safe and wont brick!

I do think you would be ok to flash the full fw though, just make sure you have a copy of the correct modem and flash it right after.

Ill let you know for sure about the md5 after I get home and try it out.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: modem

Thanks, I just wanted to save a few steps and not have to flash the AT&T stock modem if I don't have to.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Hey man, didnt want to leave you hanging. Im not going to get to try odining without the md5 tonight. Definitely tomorrow though. Just has got too late too fast and my eyes are crossing from lack of sleep!

Ill get on everything by early afternoon for sure.

Sorry if ive kept you waiting on me for anything. But I haven't forgotten!

hi i recently switched on my phone witch worked perfectly ok before i switched it of and left it with my brother.........now when i switch it on and after a bit of fiddleing with the buttons i cant get it to boot up. all it will say is

"Wallaby

bootloader

v5.15 "

when switched on.

When i hit the contact button up the top right hand side

it displays a white screen which has "utilities" on it

When i hit the notes button up the top left hand side

it displays a white screen which has "Flash tools" on it

then it freezes

Whats wrong with it

[/b]
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] LumpiStefan:
Normaly you enter the bootloader by pressing the power button and sticking in the little hole on the other site than the headset (soft reset).

Since your just pressing the power button, i would say the problem is the soft reset button. Lokks like it doesnt release correctly try sticking in the hole and get it off....

HTH

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] mub996:
thats exactly what i am doing stephan...to get it back up to the bootloader........now how do i gat it back to an operational using device.......i have read as much on here about how i need to flash the rom..........and i have an sd card.........unfortunatly for me i never did a back up or did something wrong with it..........can i buy a sd card with it on it or will someone elses not do

Cheers
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] cruisin-thru:
It sounds as if the soft reset switch is jammed in, try operating it/jiggling with stylus a few times or maybe a tiny aquirt of switch gear or wd 40.

found out from him that he was goimg to surprse..........that he did his surprise was to upgrade it for me, so he had tried to do this......i think he has overwritten the rom....can this be,,,,,,and if so how do i get this fixed

ONLY FOR TRICKDROID ROM (AS FAR AS I KNOW)

This work in progress theme is a port of my 5UBZ3R0 Theme for ASOP AKOP CM10 ROM's found here: JBlundon's Themes.

I missed my theme after upgrading and while waiting on a stable non-sense ROM I took a stab at making something for Sense 5. I really like it so I figured I would share with you all.

THIS THEME WAS MADE FOR ClockworkMod Recovery but if you want to use TWRP follow these steps

It is based off of hd2neuling's Full blue theme as a base, so huge thanks to him for that!

IMPORTANT

This theme is created to work with Kiray1982's Dark / Inverted Sense MOD FLASH THAT FIRST and then FLASH MY 5UBZ3R0 THEME

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] johnblundon:
Are you using TWRP or CWM recovery?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] JohnCorleone:
TWRP. Did I derp? Like I mentioned, the dialer and such themed but the toggles and status bar icons are what I want the most. Let me review the OP...

Oh also if I choose AOSP lockscreen in TrickDroid Aroma Installer it reverts to stock lockscreen with blue lock icon. It must be tricky theming with so many ROM options.

Of course, I like to support the mods, etc that I use and enjoy.

I flashed the inverted sense mod first and tried rebooting and it bootlooped. Oh well. I'm probably going to go back to Trickdroid soon anyway. I like cleanrom cause I get better LTE speeds and connectivity around my area but I miss all the eye candy from TD. YOU know what I'm talking about ;)
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] johnblundon:
If you flash my theme without the Inverted mod it should work just not be Black on the popups... I'll try to figure out a fix :)

I thought it had to be installed witth the other mod. I installed it and it looks good so far. Thanks again man!
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SirSigma:
Do you also get the tweaks shown in the status bar by flashing this? I like how it looks, but I have never liked the circular battery or centered status bar clock mods on any ROM.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] johnblundon:
The other mod is just to black out stuff, hoping to figure that out myself soon...

Are you using CMW or TWRP?? Check the OP for instructions if your using TWRP, it's a little different. I use CMW and it all works.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] SirSigma:
I'm using CWM. I think you misunderstood me, though. I don't want those extra mods like centered clock or circle battery indicator. I've never liked either of them for the longest time.
