Wouldn't you lose your camera function then? The sx66 does not have a camera, so I assume their rom would not include files for the cam.

I can't seem to get to that page ... what steps did you take to get there?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Raptor:
there are s66's with cameras and yes you would loose camera functionality wiht a Cingular ROM as Cingular is not selling the version with the camera do to the fact that they also sell to the government which will not purchase camera phones and Cingular did not want to offer two versions of this phone.

I apologize if this is in the wrong section, I didn't know whether or not it belonged in the Q&A section since it's not a problem with the actual phone.

Anyways, I have dropped my old electronics countless times and never suffered the consequence of having a cracked screen due to either having a case on or just complete luck. I dropped my GS4 yesterday (on my birthday too :( ) and of course...the screen ended up cracking. I had been waiting for my case to arrive and of course, it arrived when I got home later that day. The reason I'm posting this is because I would like to ask for help such as your opinions on what to do or how I could fix it in the cheapest way possible. I am a student in high school without a job so coming up with around $200-300 is something that would take months to do. Can any of you guys help or give me advice on what to do because I've never dealt with repairing or dealing with a cracked screen before. Thanks in advance!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] W.Feather:
Do you have insurance on the phone through T-Mo, or Sq. Trade?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rockstarar:
Is the amoled cracked or just the outer glass
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Idkwts:
I pay insurance every month with T-Mobile
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Idkwts:
How would I know? Im guessing the amoled being cracked would mean the display would start to malfunction but it hasn't so I think that its only the outer glass that is cracked
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Karakoram2:
Probably, just the outer glass. There are some good deals on ebay.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rockstarar:
Right on the money. Outer glass

---------- Post added at 09:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 PM ----------

I was under the impression that the digitizer, display, and outer glass were glued together on this phone? Not 100% sure
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Idkwts:
If I were to buy the outer glass, would I just replace it myself? Sorry if that was a dumb question, I just want to be sure of everything.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Idkwts:
I thought that as well which is why I didn't even think of looking on eBay because I expected all three parts to be very costly
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rockstarar:
Exactly. So you either pay a lot or have to deal with using a hairdryer to loosen glue and stuff...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Idkwts:
Thanks for the help!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] W.Feather:
Just do a claim in which case, pay the $100 deductible, get it fixed right while maintaining warranty coverage, no sense trying to fix it yourself, messing it up and loosing any coverage you currently have just to save ~50 bucks on a $650 phone ....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Idkwts:
I went to TMobile yesterday and they directed me towards Asurion and I filed a claim which they should reply to by today. However, I did some poking around on the Asurion website and saw that the deductible was $175 for the GS4 which is pretty steep for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] W.Feather:
not bad considering the first google search I found for a screen (granted its for the international version) is ~270, http://www.etradesupply.com/oem-sam...nd-digitizer-assembly-with-front-housing.html

and $350 at iFixandrepair

http://www.ifixandrepair.com/sam-galaxy-s4-lcdscreen

Sorry but your cheapest route is to take the deductible hit. Yes you can possibly "defuse" the digitizer/glass/screen, but chances are it will break....take it to a local store and get a quote for the fixing, and take the best option. I would say save slightly and get it fixed via insurance, as it will likely be the cheapest, and best for the end result (IE you dont break warranty / insurance coverage by getting the repair done yourself). Just my 2 cents.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neurocutie:
Finally got my Sprint CDMA Gtab with broken internal Sd working on CM10.1. However I can't get the gapps package install and I don't have a working clkworkmod recovery ... It always gets clobbered.

Is there an easy way to install gapps from within Android?
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] priyana:
Cm10.1 kernel definitely contains a cwm recovery.

How is yours without one?

Gapps is a pack of apk and files.

Read the updater-script in its META-INF folder and you can do exactly like what the script does, manually.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neurocutie:
This is one of those CDMA Gtabs with the busted internal SD so all the partition assignments are screwy. The ROM I've had most luck with is the CM10.1 with the Humberos? Kernel... Don't know if it contains CWM. Every time I flash in the ROM it wipes CWM but if I reinstall CWM then the ROM doesn't boot so right now they are mutual exclusive.

Trying to install a gapp apk file with FileManager doesn't work... It gets going but then says install failed... I presume the partitioning is screwing it up.... Gave it perms and made /system rw, still no go.

Anyways I just reinstalled the whole thing, oddly I have to flash another CM10 ROM first with CWM (which doesn't boot) then follow it with the 10.1 ROM but this time I also did the gapps. Now everything is 'fine' although I still don't have CWM...

UPDATE: I see that others are finding their recovery clobbered with this Rom...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kgor93:
Quick question. Wondering if Galaxy S2/S3 USB cables would work with the S4. I know they're both Micro-USB but for whatever reason, some cables don't work with the S4. My HTC cable didn't work and a generic micro-USB cable didn't work either. Reason I ask is that things like car chargers for the S2/S3 are much cheaper. Just want to make sure they work with the S4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Soldi3rxx:
At first mine worked then it suddenly stopped. The only explanation I can come across is that the s4 usb/wall charger is a 2 Amp charger and the old s3 is a 1amp. But still it should charger just slower.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kgor93:
What's weird is how some micro-USB cables work and others don't. The HTC cable only worked if you tilted it up, and the generic cable you had to really work it in there and it only charged it, no USB data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Soldi3rxx:
Ya idk beats me
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wolfgrrl:
If your going to be rooting, definitely use the S4 cable. I would think it would give you issues if you used anything else.

I rooted last night and used the cable from my S3, no issues at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] killswitch11:
My wife has the GSIII from Verizon and is experiencing massive battery drain issues. She doesn't really use any TouchWiz features and apparently the recent update from Verizon breaks LTE and creates a lot of problems. I told her to hold off on the update for now. I'm thinking, at this point, that rooting and installing a stock-based ROM might be the best route. There's just so much bloat running in the background.

I'm familiar with rooting, as I have a rooted Nexus 4 with a custom kernel. Just looking for some suggestions on a clean simple ROM. She doesn't need anything fancy or feature loaded. She actually seems to like the stock 4.2.2 on my N4. Any ROMs/kernels that have proven themselves for you guys? I'm not at all familiar with the modding community for the GSIII but eager to learn...!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] z06mike:
If you want to root and stay as stock as possible, go with CleanRom! There is nothing better!!

Also, have you looked at your wife's battery stats to see what's causing the drain? Post some shots of the battery graph so we can help you out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] killswitch11:
Not sure how detailed any non-root apps can be. I looked at the battery stats and the Android OS is a huge offender. Also, there has even been drain when she puts the phone into airplane mode overnight. I turned off automatic location updating in Maps and have tried some little tricks to extend battery life, but it's been non-effective. I will look into CleanRom....! :D (I'll also see about posting screenshots when I can...)

Y'all, for the past 2-3 years I've been begging around all corners of the Internet for an Android music streaming solution (meaning Android-based Internet streaming server + Android streaming client), to no avail. That is until the other day, when someone suggested I use FTP streaming, Anyway, to cut a long story short, I am now looking for a good Android music player with network (FTP) capabilities. I've tried ES File Explorer (good file manager, though pretty clunky when it comes to music playback capabilities, nor can playback be controlled via Bluetooth (can it?)), and Dice Player (no playlist features whatsoever).

Any other suggestions please? Bluetooth playback control is a must. Many thanks!

Reviving a dead MDAIII from Bootloader

I hear you brother! Thanks to XDADOM elsewhere on this website, I *finally* managed to revive my dead MDAIII tonight.

You will need this ROM PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP.exe (lurking somewhere on this website), xda3nbftool.exe and I also had ActiveSync 3.8 which may help.

The process to update is described elsewhere on this website, but as it's easy to get lost, here's how I did it:

Double click on the EXE file. Just before the upgrade starts, hop into Windows Explorer and try to locate the file radio_.nbf which will be in a TEMP folder somewhere on your hard disk (usually c:\Documents and Settings\YOURNAME\Local Settings\Temp)

Copy/Move all of these files into somewhere safe and memorable.

Fire up Notepad and cut and paste the following text and SAVE IT AS A .BAT file (NOT a TXT!!). Then run the attached batch file.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

xda3nbftool -x ms_.nbf ms_.nba 0x20040522

xda3nbftool -x nk.nbf nk.nba 0x20040521

xda3nbftool -x radio_.nbf radio_.nba 0x20040523

xda3nbftool -sd PH20B -sl WWE -so T-MOB005 nk.nba

xda3nbftool -x ms_.nba ms_.nbf 0x20040522

xda3nbftool -x nk.nba nk.nbf 0x20040521

xda3nbftool -x radio_.nba radio_.nbf 0x20040523

del *.nba

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now cancel out of the Update, then navigate back to where you just copied those files. Run the file BaUpgradeUt and hopefully your MDAIII should be back to factory settings as an "imate" after about 10-20 minutes.

Once again, THANK YOU to XDADOM for his time, patience and efforts in helping me out.

Hoping to flash my second ROM. A while ago now I read something which said for the particular ROM I was looking at you have to flash it from the stock ROM.

So does this apply to all ROMs as i want to flash a different ROM than my custom one i have now, do i need to use my nandriod backup and restore to my stock ROM before proceeding to flash a different one or can i just go ahead from my custom one? Is there anypoint in this or is it just safer to do so or what???

You can flash directly another rom, isn't neccessary to go back to stock, so backup your currently configuration/settings/rom (optional) and do the 3 wipes before flashing your new rom, flash it and enjoy ;) (well, or follow Dev instruction to install the rom correctly :))
