[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaptnJB:
Hi guys,

When I first got my S3 a while back, I am pretty sure I had an app installed (that I can't find in my market history) that allowed me to make some changes on a NON-ROOTED phone.

The change I made was so that the shutter on the camera would open at the "peak" of the flash and then close after or at the end of the flash.

Now I can't find where to change that back or what app I used. Sound familiar to anyone?

Basically it used to open shutter - flash led - close shutter. Now it flashes led - opens shuter - end flash -closes shutter. I need to find out how to change that setting back. Grr.

I have looked at a lot of the system tuners/tweakers on the market. I wish for the life of me I could remember what app I was using. Part of me things it was simply accessible from the camera or a samsung app of which I don't see or have anymore. So frustrating. Getting old sucks.

Thanks,

CaptnJB

Hi I never dropped my galaxy s4 but it was on my bed on the blanket and didn't know it was there flipped the blanket and it fell on its corner onto the floor, and the screens pixels were busted it wouldn't display image but everything was fine. had the phone for 2 weeks brother went in and got it replaced and there sending it in for repairs, but what they don't know is that the phone is rooted so warranty is voided? Will they end up calling me back when they get to fixing it and rebooting it... and charge me a fee even though I ahve a brand new galaxy s4?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] alex6speed:
From what I was told last week when I inquired about my cracks unsuccessfully was that they will send the phone in for repairs and inspect it separately. If they find anything that breaks the terms with AT&T (physical cracks after 2 weeks, or anything else), they have the "right" to charge you the price of a new phone (even though you may get a refurb). Also, it makes their location look bad for taking in a ineligible phone. Heck, the place that referred me to the AT&T warranty location wanted the name of the rep that referred me to them "to keep on record". I took it more as "to school them to do a better job at identifying problems".

In this case, it potentially might, as they can't simply just do a factory reset, repair the phone, and sell it back as a refurb. They would need to go all out to restore everything back to normal.

My opinion, be ready for a $600+ bill, or a call saying, "yeah, we can't cover it anymore". Sucks, but I wouldn't doubt AT&T does that.

No idea ... hopefully they're a bit more forgiving.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] unf0cus:
Hey man I think I got an idea though

what if they call me about it the fee and I just say I never knew this would void the warranty and stuff and I didn't even know about warranty till my family told me, just like bs my way through it, tell them i got a friend to root my phone and stuff.

Then if that doesn't work just try and bargain with them or something, saying can I just pay the repair fee and trade back for my old phone(not rooting this phone yet...) and stuff?

You think any of these idea's will give me a shot
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] lgkahn:
rooting does not void hardware warranty..how many times do we need to go over this.. they need to prove that rooting has anything at all to do with a hardware failure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] unf0cus:
Is this true, I mean, I thought just rooting voids warranty because NOT just cause a hardware failure can happen, but because its just modifying the phone in a way you aren't suppose to or something like that. Every time I see something about rooting everyone mentions it voids warranty,

now to my main point on this though, I came across something from bell, and just want to clarify with your guys opinions.

Here's the link http://support.bell.ca/Mobility/Rep...rs_warranty_for_my_Bell_Mobility_device_cover

It says around in the middle that:

The manufacturer's limited warranty does not cover defects or damage caused

improper storage

damage from liquids

unauthorized modification

misuse

neglect

abuse

accidents

alteration

improper installation

abnormal operating conditions

events outside of human control, such as natural disasters, for which no one can be held responsible.

The key word here is caused

Now lets say my phone screen stopped working due to rooting and doing something you can with rooting the phone, warranty is voided.

Now lets say this for what really happened in my situation. My phone is rooted, but the screen is not damaged because of the root, it is damaged because I dropped it -- but they don't know that I just told them it was a defect that the battery screwed up the screen.

So technically I never voided warranty?! Thoughts?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] c5satellite2:
You should be fine. Warranty should not be void from rooting, unless they can prove that rooting your phone caused the damage! US carriers really don't check anyway.

Okay well I'm restoring my new phone back to how my previous phone was I backed it up using twrp onto my sd card,

so I custom recovered my new phone with twrp, and tried restoring it and it failed, then I remembered that I screwed up my phones lcd density so I installed another stock firmware using odin, then worked from there and installed a custom kernel then just before I damaged the phone I backed it up using twrp onto my sd card previously stated here.

Hey XDA, I have problem with this ROM and NFC. It doesn't work. I mean literally won't work. I can't toggle it using the notifications toggles app, and the page that contains the toggle is nonexistent. Usually on the Galaxy Nexus, it will show the NFC and Android Beam toggles. For me it doesn't show up. I'm not really sure but this is ROM is CyanogenMod based, and people with the same CM10 ROM faced the same issue.

So the USB port has gone out on my Verizon GNex. I have two batteries and an external charger so I'm getting by for now but it's a pretty big hassle. I have really enjoyed this phone, ASOP and roming options. Problem is there are no new Nexus phones available or slated for Verizon. I understand the issues with Verizon and the Nexus line so no need to rehash that.

Reasons I'd like to stay with Verizon.

On family plan with wife's iphone and I don't want to move and have to buy her a new phone

Grandfathered into unlimited data

Verizon has best coverage I've found. At least in the areas I've been and I travel extensively.

Not overly concerned with month fees as my company pays most of the bill. Willing to pay a premium for availability and speed.

That being said I have no love for Verizon and would be glad leave if for the right situation.

Getting to the point what do I get for a new phone? The most important things to me in order are:

Reception Cell/Wifi/GPS

Battery life

Dev community/unlock ability/rooting ability

Hardware specs (CPU, GPU, IO, etc)

Screen size

Flashing roms has moved down a little these days ;)

Looking for any suggestions including staying on big red or other carriers.

FYI I live in Dallas

You have to go into the /boot folder and change the moboot.default file if you don't want to flash moboot with AcmeInstaller... a little research (which should've been done BEFORE flashing the ROM) would have led you to either answer...

Phone: ATT HTC One X +

Hi everyone,

This problem has been beat to death on this site but it's very hard to follow with other phones and trying to find the files and everything needed to fix it. This is my first time to try and root a phone so I tried to piece it together and screwed it up. Still trying to learn.

So far I successfully unlocked the bootloader through the HTCDEV site so I have SDK with fastboot and adb. I found OneXRoot but it just said "waiting for device". So, I found RootBoot-1.14.206.16-O2, ran it from the file I downloaded it to and not the fastboot/adb location (might have been the problem) and it said "waiting for device" so I unplugged my phone and plugged it back in. It was supposed to restart my phone 3 times and root my phone through magic but instead it restarted once and only goes to HTC white screen.

I've looked all through for a solution and the best thing I've come across was this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=30863908 . I was going to try this but I don't know my CID and my phone doesn't boot to figure it out. Am I headed in the right direction?

My goal here was to root the phone to get rid of HTC Sense. I'm thinking I should flash the boot.img or do the kernal thing. Not sure though it's very confusing. Right now I need to get it to boot so I can try the root again (the correct way, whatever that might be). Any help would be very appreciated, my phone is a paper weight right now.

http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/131 downloaded the recovery image here and going to try that. It says the batter is too low now so i'm guessing it will work after the battery is recharged. That's direction I am taking atm.

Update: I've finally figured out how to get the TWRP recovery booted. Now working on trying to get my phone to boot up an OS of some sort. Very slowly but surely.
[HTC One X+] Addicted2xda:
Press the power down button while turning on your device to see if you can get to boot loader - this will give you the basic information about your device.

Use the original RUU from the following post to flash your device in bootloader mode (I think it should work...):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2140442

Use this to unlock your bootloader / root your device / blah blah blah. Too many people have succeeded in rooting / unlocking their device through this. So, there is a good chance that you will too...

OK it looks like the OS was wiped before it was backed up with a rom folder to use after rooting. Now I have no OS so I can't get to files to put on a ROM or do much of anything. It's not booting past the HTC screen because there is no OS now ^^. I have no idea what to do about that. Going to try to figure out how to put a new OS on there. Any help would be appreciated.
[HTC One X+] Addicted2xda:
If your device is locked - you can get the current RUU of your specific device from the post I have mentioned.

BTW what is your hboot version?

If your device is unlocked - install TWRP using hasoon's toolkit and then use sideload to copy / install a custom ROM...
[HTC One X+] bullmurf:
"use sideload to copy / install a custom ROM..." OK I don't know anything about this but it will point me in the right direction. I have the phone unlocked. The HBOOT version is 1.40.0000. I'll see if I can do what you suggested, thanks.

Update: Atempting an adb sideload using TWRP which seems to be the only option for me.
[HTC One X+] bullmurf:
I can't link on this board yet so I quoted the sideloading instructions for a .zip from the TWRP website. I have the latest version of SDK and when I try to sideload it gives me a list of commands in the command prompt. I looked through them and didn't see sideload as a command. What's the easiest way to sideload this zip so I can install it in TWRP to get my phone booted? I know you can do "adb install \path.apk) but I don't have an rom in .apk format, only zip.
[HTC One X+] bullmurf:
Update: after trying the same thing 100 times it decided to send "sideload". command line was adb sideload name.zip. Installing Viper ROM for HOX+ atm. I'll see if it fixes all of my problems. Thanks for all of the help to this point. I'll type up a guide of what went wrong with my root and how we managed to get it fixed.

Update: Phone is booting to HTC white screen and then shutting off. Now trying to figure that one one out.

Update" Phone is booting to HTC white screen now and staying there. In TWRP under reboot is says "no os installed, do you still wish to reboot". Still digging in the forums to figure this one out and how to fix it. I installed the Viper ROM fine but when it asked to reboot now it just rebooted to HTC white screen. Missing something here? The phone is S-ON, does that make a difference in using the TWRP?
[HTC One X+] bullmurf:
Is there an RUU exe file I can run from my computer? I relocked the phone but the links you gave me are for installing the ap through google play. Not sure how you do that with a phone that wont boot past htc screen.

Update: I've found an RUU application from these boards that is supposed to work for HOX+ so i'm downloading it. It really is taking forever to find the information I need along the way from this board but it's here....somewhere...I think...Will keep plugging away but feel free to throw me a bone ever once in a while! =)

Update: The version that worked for others isn't the same version I have. Going to dig again for 1.19.502.1 version.

Update: Found the version in the last place I thought it would be...HTC website...Downloading it and just hoping its and application I can run on my computer.

Problem Fixed:

Problem: While trying to root phone I didn't back it up. Unlock was successful but root was not. OS was lost and phone would not boot past HTC white screen.

Solution: Relocked phone using fastboot oem relock. Downloaded manual ROM installation of the same version and intalled it while phone plugged in.

Thanks for the help in pointing me in the right direction. Now to try and root it again to install viper. If it screws up I know how to get back :laugh:

When I try to turn the hotspot function on through settings, it says "use of this service requires a subscription to Mobile Hotspot or Mobile Broadband Connect..." which I don't have. But when I use Power Toggles to turn on the hotspot function, I am able to connect my computer to my device.

Is there a way that Verizon would figure out that I can use their hotspot function without paying for the monthly subscription?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Southern_mind:
I've been using it for over two years with out them knowing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stuartv:
The simple answer is Yes. No matter what method you use for enabling tethering on your phone, if Verizon cares to examine the data going in and out of your phone, they can tell if you're tethering.

Will they bother to look? Will they do anything about it? Those are the more relevant questions.

My philosophy is, don't abuse it and they'll probably never look at you. I suspect that somebody, somewhere at Verizon is responsible for running a report every month of their top data users who don't pay for tethering. Then, they go look at those users and bust the ones that they find are tethering without paying for it. My personal goal is just to make sure I'm fare enough down that list that they never get to looking at me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Itsmyphoneyo:
I can tell you that according to the C block spectrum that Verizon leases for their LTE network, they can not stop, inhibit, or penalize you for tethering your phone while on LTE. It is in the licensing rights of their spectrum. Hence, all the new plans include free wifi tethering. Now, this was not an oversight, because Verizon used to attempt to block tethering apps from the play store to their customers. The FCC just so happened to put a stop to that 2 months prior to Verizon announcing new Share Everthing plans that include tethering. Verizon knows that the people who tether tend to use a lot more data. With more data being used across the whole account, the customer pays more. Verizon only wanted to prevent People from tethering long enough to release the new plans, because they are doing exactly what they intended them to do... Convince people who don't use a lot of data to move to a tiered plan and give them hotspot for free. Saying "Try it. If you find it convenient, you can add a mobile hotspot device to your plan for only $20 more a month and you can connect up to 10 things to it. All while conserving your phones battery life".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ilkevinli:
Man that is a big assumption . :rolleyes:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] najaboy:
Yes and no. The FCC left the door wide open to Verizon managing tethering by unlimited users. The FCC specifically only took issue with usage based customers being charged. Additionally, the Share Everything plans preceded the Verizon/FCC consent decree by one month.
