[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NJPanda:
I have to return my Verizon S3 for warranty replacement and I searched for a video on YouTube to help me with unrooting it. I followed the steps as per the video and ran the stock firmware through ODIN and the process completed with no problem. At that point the phone started to reboot and I expected it to boot up and I'd be good to go but instead its stuck in a boot loop and I don't know what to do at this point. I redid the whole process several times and each time it ends in a boot loop.

I'm an over the road trucker and I NEED my phone ASAP. I cant and wont drop $600 for a replacement phone and NO I don't have the insurance so I need to fix what I have.... I'm in a truck stop using the internet and I'm hoping for a quick solution to get my phone back up and running..

If anyone can help me figure this out I'd greatly appreciate it

Can anyone help?

Need the proper software and process to get this done.

Thanks for the help

the only thing I did was follow the information and video from a website called creative android. Since I haven't made 10 posts I cant post the URL for the website

I don't know if this phone is bricked or what

if u didnt flash recovery u can wipe cache and reset to factory mode by android based recovery by pressing volume up+menu+power and phone going to recovery mode and if u flashed recovery like cwm or else u can do this yet.. and do reset factory and wipe cache

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NJPanda:
many thanks

I just wanted to say that I FINALLY got my phone back up and running from being "soft bricked". It took me longer then normal because I am a trucker and the internet connections at truck stops is pretty crappy most of the time. I got lucky this time and found one with a GREAT connection and I was finally able to download the proper firmware as you suggested. I went to Sammobile as you suggested, joined the site and downloaded the file, flashed with Odin and i'm back in business.. Thanks a bunch for your help to get my phone up and running.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tushar.spen_helper&hl=en <--- S PEN HELPER WHICH IS JUST AMAZING!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flyingbusstudio.snappadfree <--- HAVENT TESTED YET BUT SHOULD BE A GOOD ALTERNATIVE TO POP UP NOTE FROM TW!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] slaydog:
Interesting...

Side-loaded first apk, now the phone knows when s-pen is detached and reattached but 2nd app (from the Market) is a little goofy. I can get it to either put a link to Papyrus in the status bar when pen detached, or do nothing. Neither is very helpful.

What am I missing?

3rd app is just weird, lol

I can see the potential :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Scyke:
This is actually pretty cool. I'm on cyanogenmod and I hated how the spen didn't vibrate when it was detached. Now with these apps it vibrates and shows a detached notification plus makes the same sound when detaching(if you have the stock sound files). The third app is nice but it's kind of slow/laggy when you slide it out. I uninstalled it because it made my phone seem slow. If they fix that I will download again
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] vista1984:
thanks,

dump question, if official 4.2 rom comes out with the spen app for android 4.2, will the spen app be use on the CM 10.1?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ainen:
No. It relies on TouchWiz.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] vista1984:
ic. but why spen app worked on 4.1 miui? miui should base on cm also, not tw.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ainen:
MIUI is sort of a combination of the two. I don't know how they do it exactly but MIUI is the only ROM I've found that has features from both TW and AOSP.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] slaydog:
I seem to remember there was an AOSP rom with TW working recently, but can't recall which one...

I've never tried MIUI, do you guys like/recommend it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] tushar9989:
Hello I am the developer of the first 2 apps

I have uploaded the first one to the play store now https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tushar.cmspen

And the second one was made for Samsung based ROMs so there were a few UI changes needed to be made. If you update it now it should work fine.

Sorry for the inconvenience :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] slaydog:
Wow, thanks!

:thumbup::):beer:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ainen:
Is there any way for you to add an option for it to start on boot?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] tushar9989:
Both of the apps auto start on boot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] skifreek:
If you could make an app that let's me use HDMI out on the phone, i could say goodbye to Touchwiz forever!! :eek::eek:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] slaydog:
Both apps now working great! Removing S-pen now turns on the display and opens Papyrus instantly, and closes it when pen is reinserted.

5 stars, and will buy pro version.

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] tushar9989:
Sorry for the late reply. I don't think I will be able to do that as I don't have a HDMI cable nor do I have any plan's of buying one :(

[Motorola Photon 4G] hirent:
After months of waiting, I am finally on the new generation of Android....just upgraded to the HTC One; and I am absolutely loving it so far.

Lots of exploring to do, even with the stock ROM. However, one of the features that irks me are the ringtones; completely rubbish.

I had set up my Photon with peetr_'s Hybrid Stock/CM7 ROM and liked the ringtones in there.

So my question is: is there a way to extract/copy the ringtones over from the Photon to the HTC One?

I would appreciate it if anyone could help me out here.

Thanks.
[Motorola Photon 4G] pradeeppk:
Ringtones are located at system/media/audio/ringtones folder. You can either copy it from your photon using root explorer or from hybrid rom itself using winrar. But copying it to nexus ones system/media/audio/ringtones folder is only possible after rooting your new phone. Or you can copy it to sdcard and set as ringtone from there.

Hope it helps you♚♚♚♚♚
[Motorola Photon 4G] hirent:
Yup! That definitely helped.

I don't know why I didn't think of it, since I had File Manager on my Photon.

Anyway, I copied the three folders; "alarms", "notifications" & "alarms" to a folder on the SD card.

And then copied that folder to the HTC One.

Here's where I was pleasantly surprised: once I copied the folder (containing the three sub-folders with the OGG files) to the Music folder on the HTC One, all the sounds showed up exactly under each category, merged together with the stock tunes.

I opened the "alarm" tones and my new sounds showed up in the list along with the stock sounds; ditto for the "ringtone" and "notification" sounds.

No rooting, no custom rom, absolutely nothing required. I didn't have to do anything except copy the tones to the HTC One. That's some functionality and ease of use.

I wonder if its the same for all devices or exclusive to the One.

Hope this helps someone in the future.

As soon as it finishes, hold power, volume up, and home simultaneously to boot into recovery. That should get you out of the water

Edit: my fault, didnt read closely enough. If you have a microsd adapter for your computer, save a copy of the stock rooted on your sd card via your computer and try a new flash. Sounds like you may have gotten a bad download

Nothing. Chances are its irrepairably broken. This is why you make backups and make sure the backups are not on the same system as the originals.

[General Questions and Answers] toughtrasher:
If I recall correctly, there's some kind of mod with the fonts that I saw somewhere. You're going to have to Google it, but it has something to do with changing up the fonts of your phone, you'll probably need root access.

I know that GO keyboard and Go SMS support emojis but that's not for apps like Twitter, only for messaging iPhone users.

Let me know if I helped you out.

Compile a CM 10.1 kernel, baseband and kernel unknown.

I'm a beginner. Learning to using CM source compiler kernel, and ROM.

The help of many good-hearted people, such as: AndreiLux and simone201

I can use CM10.1 source to compiled kernel for n7108 now.

However, while normal boot the system. The phone has no signal.

In the settings. Baseband and kernel is unknown.

Who can help me. Or tell me how to solve this problem.

Thank you.

In the annex, I have attached the the adb log when up and running.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] victorator:
I haven't looked at the logs but my guess is you used n7100 proprietaries instead of the ones from n7108.

Extract the files (filenames here ) from a stock n7108 firmware (you've probably overwritten them on your device already) and recompile.

Make sure you have a modem for n7108 loaded (flash stock firmware with odin to be sure).
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] wctliu:
Thank you very much for your reply.

You are a good-hearted people.

I am afraid that is not the problem.

First of all, I use a script to crawl 7108 proprietaries, from my 7108.

Second, because the comparison of 7100 and 7108 the official firmware, only one file difference.

That is, "libsec-ril.so", this file I have also replaced the 7108 version.
