[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] flip06:
hey everyone, so im on leave right now visiting the gf and friends and didnt take my laptop with me. so i decided to try her new windows 8 laptop and see hwat would happen. i used the oem cord that came with the note 2. and still....for some reason beyond any ones comprehension, the oem cord WILL NOT CONNECT. but i did remember that a few post above someone had the same problem and used a GS3 cord and it worked. so i grabbed le gf's GS3 cord and ZOMG IT WORKED!! but now i have to ask why....like WTF Verizon/computer/RootGods...Y U DO DIS?!

anyway, im all rooted up, FINALLY....cant believe something ive done a million times before had to be postponed because the cord wasn't working...lame sauce. anyways, if you having the same problem as me i suggest trying a friends/gf's GS3 cord and giving it a shot. im still going to try a GS3 cord on my laptop and see if it indeed is the fix, so in about a week ill report back on that.

thanks everyone for the help!! now to choose a rom....hmmmmm CM10? AOKP? decisions...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] kangjins2:
HI All,

Really grateful for all of the amazing work I see but cannot comment on within the developer threads. :good:

So I most definitely wiped 3x and clean flashed the ROM onto my phone and it runs GREAT.

However, there is just ONE glitch that I have that I can't seem to rid of.

In the gallery, when i long press an image to select it, the "Talkback" feature says something along the lines of "The image you have selected is checked". However, the Talkback feature is turned OFF in settings. I went as far as Freezing/Disabling the feature, but it's an ongoing issue.

Does anyone else have this issue? I disabled all accessibilty options that i can think of, but no such luck. I may finally cave-in and go with my last resort: re-flash.

Nope im not having this problem
[Windows 8 General] hotnvicious5:
This is really strange. My apps can't connect to the internet when they're open, but when they're closed they have no problem. For example, my News, Email, and Finance apps show updated, current information, but when I open them they say that they can't connect. How do I fix this?
[Windows 8 General] goldflame09:
if your internet status says limited, windows only reads that and then tells the app what do to.

if your connection is limited, thats why they arent connecting
[Windows 8 General] GoodDayToDie:
Are you using a proxy server or VPN? There are known issues with Metro apps and VPNs
[Windows 8 General] stevedebi:
I had this happen to my Toshiba early on, and I ended up doing a refresh.
[Windows 8 General] hotnvicious5:
I actually just tried connecting to a VPN and the connection worked! I've found that Windows 8 is somehow blocking Metro connections on private networks, but allowing them on public ones. I fixed the problem by setting my connection to Public.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uscpsycho:
There are two people (at least) that I can't send text messages to. One is on AT&T and one is on Sprint so their carrier isn't the issue. And it doesn't matter which sms app I use.

When I use Chomp I get this result: "Unfortunately, chomp SMS has stopped."

When I use the stock messaging app I get this result: "Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped."

There is no existing thread with these people and their cell phone numbers are valid. When they send me texts everything looks normal on their end but I don't get the message.

Any ideas? This is very annoying and I probably will have the same problem with other people, I just haven't discovered it yet.

Is the phone a I9300 ???

Or are you in the wrong forum ??

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sriram231092:
are you on a leaked firmware? if so, you should factory reset your phone from recovery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uscpsycho:
I'm bone dry stock.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uscpsycho:
Ah crap, I'm on Sprint. Wrong forum. Second time I do this in two days...

EDIT: I just posted on the Sprint forum. Mods feel free to delete.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sriram231092:
fine. 1. clear cache and data of the messaging app and restart it.

2. if step 1 doesn't work, factory reset from recovery mode and flash another stock rom.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uscpsycho:
#1 will cause me to lose all my SMS/MMS and I'm not rooted to back up. Not thrilled about doing that...

#2 will cause me to lose everything since I'm not rooted and can't back up. If I go this route why reset from recovery and flash a ROM? What's wrong with just doing a factory reset from the settings?

Just when I was OK with a non-rooted phone it looks like I may have to root just so I can back up and start over. Not cool :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sriram231092:
well. you have many apps to backup messages and your installed apps without root required. also you don't need to root phone to factory reset from recovery. stock ones is enough to do that.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uscpsycho:
Unless the latest versions of Android allow this without root access I'm not aware of this being possible.

I know there are apps that let you back up your SMS but not MMS. And I know there are apps that will create a list of your installed apps so you can more easily reinstall them, but there is no way to backup and restore your apps with data unless you are rooted. Or is this no longer true? Great news if it is possible.

I know I don't need to be rooted to reset from stock recovery. But why go into recovery instead of just doing a factory reset from the settings if I'm straight stock? Is there an advantage to that?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
yes, that's not true. check out helium backup.

and for the messages, apps that back them up never required root
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
Or use KIES. It will back up all SMS AND MMS messages.
[Xperia Play General] xzafa:
Hey I'm just trying to run Emulators like N64 flawlessly, I think changing from Stock to Jellybean helped quite a bit (I notice Kirby Crystal Shards has no slowdown now) Zelda Ocarina of Time is quite smooth, I don't have Overclocking features to get it to its optimal yet so I was wondering how else I can do it, by trying out other Roms powered specifically to run games smoothly?
[Xperia Play General] korrectmethod:
I use n64oid 2.7. Playing super mario 64 perfect, super smash bros (some slight slowdowns when a lot of enemies on screen), and harvest moon 64 fine.
[Xperia Play General] DiamondBond:
Use a GB rom they are much better fir gaming & Peeformance!
[Xperia Play General] rubbergnome:
n64oid has great performance, but no touchpads on GB. I actually am thinking of flashing an ICS rom just for touhcpads on n64oid.

On the other hand, mupen64plus-ae works great (not as good with heavy games, but stuff like mario64 runs perfectly at all times), and has touchpads.
[Xperia Play General] xzafa:
Ok I'll try a GB although just came from stock one :laugh:
[Xperia Play General] xzafa:
Yep ICS is touchpad compatible, I haven't tried it yet but I read the sensitivity has room to be increased as in you might find yourself pushing to the outer rims of the touchpad but I don't know. Mupen64plus is great, and I tried with Majora's Mask and it was fun, one I got to a town it got quite laggy then I tried to N64oid and it was less laggy.
[Xperia Play General] balsh:
n64oid is the best emu.

Then overclocking is a must for n64 emulation.

It's actually the first thing I do to test my overclocking cause it's with the n64 games I feel the most change in performance with overclocking.
[Xperia Play General] xzafa:
Nice. Now I need to try to get this overclocking thing working
[Xperia Play General] SteelDragonX:
Most games run perfectly with n64oid. But unfortunately, I dont found yet an emulator that run Cruis'n USA without lag. Killer Instinct runs fine, but the controllers dont work properly. I tryed many different configs, but no success. Basically, only this two games that have issues for me. I have tested almost all emulators, and the more stable so far was the N64oid.
[Xperia Play General] abdel12345:
For some reason I can't find it in the market. Can somebody upload it here since its free anyways. I've been using mupen64 but paper Mario and yoshis island both lag and have lot s of graphical issues
[Xperia Play General] rubbergnome:
the lack of touchpad support is a dealbreaker for me, though.
[Xperia Play General] abdel12345:
Thanks a lot man. Is this the newest version?

Sent from my Xperia Play (r800x)
[Xperia Play General] SteelDragonX:
Ver 2.7. Last, i think.
[Xperia Play General] ridder215215:
To overclock, you need a custom kernel. Look in the development section for it, and make sure it's compatible with your rom. Once you've flashed the kernel, you can find a CPU tuner app (this one works fine). Sometimes, there's a CPU tweak utility included in the rom.
[Xperia Play General] Toledo_JAB:
N64oid app IS NOT FREE.

Please check THIS PAGE @ SLIDEME.

It says that N64oid cost $4.99

Posting this PAID app for free on XDA is against the rule #6

I want to tell EVERYONE here that this is your 1 friendly warning.

[MENTION=5122948]SteelDragonX[/MENTION] DO NOT post another PAID app as actions will be taken the next time.
[Xperia Play General] abdel12345:
It was free on the play store but now its not there. We couldn't really have known it was paid now since it was free like a week ago on the play store and most people use play store not slideme. But anyways it was my fault for requesting it without checking other markets sorry

Back on topic: does anyone okay paper Mario and have it working fine? I keep getting graphical glitches with mupen64. I stick with that emulator because of touchpad support

[Xperia Play General] Potoaborto:
Hello! Best combination that i found is:

Nxt 1.3 light edition

Doomkernel or lupus v10

n64oid

Overclocked 1.4 with no frills cpu

Almost no lag at all on SMB

Hope it helps!

i believe i could create the app relatively easily as i am a c++ programmer and would learn the language used for android providing if anyone can tell me if the wifi chip set on the Samsung galaxy s4 can write to disk. if not it would be impossible without connecting an external method of capturing and saving the packets. if anybody could direct me to the correct place for the information i need or if there is already a project underway could you provide information. would be interesting to see if it is possible with the existing wifi chip-set.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Trevski13:
Hello,

I've managed to get my build.prop in a state where I can't update (I assume it's the build prop). I've tried the backups I have, but none of them are working. I'm currently on 4.1.1 and I was hoping someone has backup.

Thanks in advance!

for clarity: Verizon Galaxy Note II 4.1.1 Stock ROM, Stock Recovery, Rooted

The Failing update is update_SCH-I605_LL4_to_MC3 which fails with code 402
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bfitz26:
Download the stock ROM in Development and pull it from there :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Trevski13:
I Downloaded the image and extracted it, now I have a "system.img" file which I assume contains the files but what do I do with it? I tried mounting/extracting and nothing worked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
Download the recovery flashable stock rom, the zip file, and extract it from that using 7zip.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dragonstalker:
Using ES File explorer. Setup up your root explorer. and change permissions by using tools to System R/W.

Use ES File explorer to open the stock download and navigate to system/build.prop Copy it. Go back to your system and Rename the one there to build.bak. Then paste the new one there. This way you have the original saved if it turns out not to be the build.prop. My guess is. If you are on a rooted, stock rom like you said. The build.prop's are going to be identical. Thinking the culprit might be whatever you are trying to Odin is bad.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
I didn't know you could explore .img files with a root explorer, of course I have never tried either.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Trevski13:
So I pulled the build.prop from a stock image, but it turned out it perfectly matched one of my backups. (I had three backups, factory, factory that I played with, and OTA Stock). So in the end that didn't solve my core issue. At this point should I make a new thread with a more appropriate title or just continue this one?

Actually you can't... :( I ended up using "Android ICS JB EXT4 imagefile unpacker" for windows, which worked nicely.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] jcollier:
I would say just continue this thread.

I just re-read your original post. Are you trying to update from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 via the OTA? If so, build.prop isn't your issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Trevski13:
alright, detail time! :cowboy:

I'm currently on 4.1.1 (I've applied one update after I bought it on release day)

I have an ota update (to what I assume is 4.1.2)

stock everything, locked boot-loader, but rooted (used Exynos Abuse)

using SuperSU

my phone lists update_SCH-I605_LL4_to_MC3 which fails to install with error code 402

my device status IS "modified" but it appears to be related to the SD card as it is "normal" when I remove it (apparently a known issue)

normally when I get an update I do the following:

1. restore build.prop

2. remove busybox

3. remove/disable any other apps that may have played with files that I think could cause issues

4. double check my root backup (Voodoo)

5. temp unroot

6. update

7. restore root

8. enjoy

this method usually works without issues :/

and the reason I suspected build.prop in the first place is that restoring it allowed me to update on another device.

I'd

really

rather not have to flash it back to stock, but if it's my only option, I will. So any ideas that don't involve wiping everything would be wonderful!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
Really the only thing I have seen to update is to go completely back to stock.

But why do you want to do this so badly? Why not just unlock and flash the new update rom Beans provided? Thats certainly the easiest way to do it in my opinion, since you're having all these issues, and it leaves you unlocked in case you don't like one of the future updates or if you want to test out AOSP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Trevski13:
I rely on my phone a lot and so even the short amount of time it would take me to fix a soft brick, or reconfigure a wiped device would be a problem. I'm not worried about bricking it, I'm worried about the time it takes to fix it. I soft bricked my old X2, and it was a real inconvenience (granted that was the first time I'd ever had to fix something like that) and I had to restore my Transformer Infinity back to stock to fix lag and glitching issues. (which lead to a whole partial root fiasco). So It's not that I can't fix the problems, it's that it takes time I don't have, and disrupts my life. If I had another 4g phone (because switching between 3g and 4g is a pain on Verizon) that I could switch to if I messed up and didn't have time to fix it, I'd totally start messing with custom roms, unlocking, and all that fun stuff, but I don't :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] shangrila500:
Well unlocking would let you go ahead and update and until you wanted to flash roms you wouldnt have to except for that first flash of the new update, which is what a stock update does.

The reason I say this is some people have had this problem and when they finally do get the update to work it soft bricks them. This is rare but it has happened. In the end for me it is just easier to unlock so I can play around when I want to and when I dont I can stay on stock.

Hi everyone!

A friend of mine found a samsung wave 2. Because it was locked with a password i tried to flash new firmware on it with multiloader.

It gave an error and now i can't get into download mode anymore, it appears on the screen for half a second and then the phone reboots.

I also can't charge it anymore because if i plug it in, the empty battery appears, and the phone reboots after 15 seconds. It doesn't seem to charge and i guess that's why i cant stay in download mode. Also it gets quite hot while charging...

Any ideas how to fix this? I've found numerous topics spread across the internet but none give a real solution :s

Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] noahthedominator:
Flash a stock firmware using Odin. That should help.

Press thanks if I've helped you

No you didnt help, but i managed to charge the battery by wiring it to my galaxy s2, quite dangerous imo :p

but i succeeded and managed to get into download mode without rebooting, SOLVED :D

[General Questions and Answers] niranjan94:
So... Looks like it's hard bricked ... So ... just go to an Authorised service centre, and Play Dumb. Just tell that suddenly your phone wouldn't turn on and that you donno what happened (don't tell about rooting or anything) .... So, depending on how well you acted and how dumb the service centre people are, you 'may' get a replacement under warranty ..

Hi,

I am willing to flash and try CyanogenMod 10 4.2.2, But i am afraid that I won't be able to flash an 4.1.1 custom rom like Viperx afterwards,

After I flash CyanogenMod, can I re-flash an older android version rom ,

there is anyone that have dont it before ?

thank you very much : )
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
Yes, you can flash a 4.1.1 version after using the 4.2.2.. Make sure you wipe everything before changing the rom! ;)

Nothing special to do!

Flash boot.img, erase cache. Go to recovery wipe data/cache/dalvic and then flash rom.zip. Reboot! ;)

Hi,

Yesterday my phone was working fine, today ... It bootloop after 5seconds, even if i start it in download mode, i feel like the "Start" button is stuck, but i prefer to ask first. i tried to get a log from adb logcat, but the phone isn't recognised in 5sec so i have nothing.

EDIT: The phone is comming back from support because of the motherboard "suddent death", they replaced it with a same new one.

Known problem ? Any idea ? :x

Firmware version ????

Read the sudden death syndrome post in general .

recovery ???

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Minoui:
Thanks for the answer :)

As it reboot after 5second i can't even go in recovery mode,

I don't remember the firmware version, but it's the stock one.

I'm gonna read (again) the post about sudden death :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
seems like the power button is stuck.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Minoui:
I add that it also could be this:

But i can't really go into download mode so ... i still think it's simply the button wich is stuck :x

LAST EDIT:

Ok, so after 10min connected to usb (and looping) it suddently ... stopped to loop... and just i started it normaly ...

but

exactly now, when i'm writing this, the phone just restarted and went back to 'loopboot' mode

BUT

when i'm about to send the message ... it stoped to loop and i'm starting it normaly ... >_<
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Minoui:
Ok, now 10 minutes it started normaly, 98% percent charge.

No sim inserted,no SD card, if i try to open the parameters, it open for 1/2 second then close and send me back to main menu.

Every other app seems to work normaly. (Text, internet, file explorer).

I'm going to wait a bit more then try to insert SIM and SD and reboot.

EDIT: Trying to open any "Parameter" related thing bring me back to main menu (as "Connected as" or long press the Wi-Fi etc ...).

I can activate wifi and it works ... it seems it's only the GUI xD (Maybe it's normal while not having SIM card, i never tried to run my phone without one :x )
