[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
It's all just speculation at this point until phones start to ship with the new firmware, but Samsung / AT&T could invalidate the authentication keys that exist in the AMDB / AMDL firmwares making it impossible to use ODIN to flash those firmwares on the "new" phones. It would basically appear that we were trying to flash "unsupported software" and not allow it. It would also be possible to place flags in the NV memory portion of the boot process. This is better explained in the threads that already exist about unlocking the bootloader. You see the Odin flashables that exist do not re-flash all partitions. So, it is very possible. Hopefully someone with a better understanding of how the locked bootloader process works on this phone can explain better. Of course, maybe none of this will happen?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Thermalwolf:
They will indeed. There's no point in patching Loki if you can just downgrade and install a custom recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mg2195:
They could make bootloaders a one time flash deal, they did it on the Samsung infuse, once you updated to gingerbread and got the gingerbread bootloaders you could not go back to froyo bootloadsrs, the new one however did still support froyo and what not so you could still Odin old froyo stock roms however you were still left with gb bootloaders. This wasn't really a problem as at the time neither bootloaders were locked...but I'm just giving this as an example that Odin can't always flash old bootloaders on top of new ones...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bubblebuddyi:
I'm still learning this android stuff, but doesn't the phone download the update automatically? I'm rooted w/ an OEM-based ROM, so I don't want my phone automatically updating on me lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] AxAtAx:
I don't think that it is enough to justify the big boys to rush to unlock the bootloader, just yet. I could be wrong.

Not if you are rooted it won't.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] orlandoxpolice:
Just freeze att update in tibu to be safe
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Shammyh:
I'd suggest you read the development thread about Loki.

The "bootloader lock" goes deeper than the "flashed software" on the phone. The root keys a "burnt" into the hardware itself, that's the point of the "Secure Boot" and QFuses in the SoC. AT&T could easily update a portion of the signing chain to prevent ODIN flashing back to vulnerable (aka, Loki patch-able) versions of the aboot (the kernel and Android OS are irrelevant, it's the aboot that they will patch). In fact, it's highly likely that's what they eventually intend to do.

Long story short, DO NOT FLASH AT&T OFFICIAL OTAs. Period. Exclamation point!

That is unless you only want to run un-rooted stock ROMs. In which case, go ahead, be the guinea pig we all learn the avoid the mistakes of.

I do believe there was actually another exploit that never got released after Dan released Loki, so there may be another round of cat/mouse with AT&T, and perhaps a few more even after that, however, unless the root keys are leaked there will probably eventually come a point where the devs are unable to break the signing chain, at which point, some people will be left seriously out of luck.

If you don't like it, buy an unlocked i9505, or a T-Mobile GS4. That's the price we pay with AT&T...

I flashed cleanrom 1.0 today and actually got the notification that a new software was downloading...im not sure if it would have even installed bc im on a custom rom but I froze the necessary apps just in case.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] j510:
This Secure boot status you talk about is rolling out for unlocked international devices (s4 with an already unlocked bootloader). I doubt its to lock the bootloader specifically for at&t. Comeon now how can you all think its specifically for our phones if its for all s4 globally

http://www.sammobile.com/2013/06/06...y-s4-brings-enhancements-and-stability-fixes/

Sammobile reported this awhile ago. This is for International that is already unlocked out the box.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mg2195:
I think the op was referring to when our version gets released...as the att version of the update is likely/rumored to have patched the Loki exploit

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyGalaxy:
I've just flashed (for the first time) an AOSP ROM, running Android 4.2.2.

It plays up with games and other things so i was looking to try different Kernels.

Locating alternative Kernels for this type of ROM and this android version is proving more difficult than other ROMs.

Can someone please help me by suggesting other kernels that would work on Android 4.2.2 on an AOSP ROM?

Thank you in advance :good:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyGalaxy:
Thanks for the quick response..

But do these kernels work both with AOSP ROMs AND Android 4.2.2??

Because, for example, Siyah has noted on their download page that this is for Android 4.1.x ROMs ONLY and that "Samsung 4.2 leaks are not supported",
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyGalaxy:
Says the same for "Googy-Max" kernel on their XDA page:

"This kernel is ONLY for SAMSUNG 4.1.2 ROMS"
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Siyah and Googy work on AOSP and Samsung ROMS

They work with AOSP 4.2.2 but only up to 4.1.2 on samsung

The reason being Samsung have not released the sources for Samsung 4.2.2, so we cannot make kernels for that
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndyGalaxy:
Okay, brilliant, thanks.

I will give Siyah a go as i had and liked Siyah on my previous ROM.

After locking the bootloader did you run the ruu with admin privileges? If the ruu isn't recognizing your device, it means that connection isn't being established so it's either a faulty driver or cable may be??

Are you able to run fastboot commands??

That's because you have locked the bootloader with a custom recovery on AFAIK,.. no need to worry about that.... it comes n goes ...

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] TechMitchell:
Hey guys, I recently flashed Android Revolution 7 HD over Android Revolution 5, it was a dirty flash. I didn't wipe it so when it booted and froze instantly, I went into recovery and made a nandroid for the hope of restoring apps and data via nandroid manager, everything was fine, Until while backing up, I think it finished but now when I try to restore the nandroid in recovery it says md5 mismatch so I don't know if it is restorable via nandroid manager. I had roughly 2125 mb of space to make the nandroid. I tried to move files to my pc but could not successfully mount it to the pc. So my question is, how do I fix the md5 mismatch and how to I mount my note 10.1 to my pc, thanks!!!
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] glennlevi:
So what happened was I was dumb enough to try and flash a theme on a non-deodexed stock rom. I got boot looped.

What I did was I made a back up with CWM. My SD card didnt have enough space though so I got an error message with regards to having an error with android secure. What I did was copy the incomplete CWM backup, and the .androidsecure folder in my sd card.

My question is, can I make/edit the zip file so I can restore via CWM all my apps? Not the whole rom (cuz its broken) - just the apps.
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] TECHNO_THUNDER:
;)You have two options friend-

:thumbup: One is-Go to CWM then choose Backup and Restore option and you will find there a option named Advanced Restore.select it and you can see your backed up rom.then select it and you will see more options; to restore the apps only,select the Restore Data option from there. well.... you have done to flash the apps not whole rom.:)

:(If not works....

:thumbup:Another is-Extract your backed up rom's data folder archive and then go to- /data/apps/****.And install the apk files of your backed up rom from here...:):):)

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongo264:
I have been enjoying my Nexus 10 for about 3 months now and it has been great!!!

Last night after some gaming and surfing the battery was at about 1/4. I had plugged it in the night before and it was about 95% charged in the morning after similar usage, so this time I decided to turn it off and charge as apposed to letting it sleep.

Well this morning no love it just does nothing. I can plug it in and the battery icon will come on when I hit the power button but that it. I have done 30 sec power button, Tried power with VOL + and -, Power and just +, Power and just -, But still nothing!!!

What to do???

Thanks for any input you guys can provide...
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bongo264:
OK I fixed it!!!

It was a very odd issue.

I noticed that when it was plugged in and I hit the power button for about 5 sec a battery with lightning bolt icon would appear on the screen. Just out of curiosity and trying every other damn thing I held the power button until said battery icon appeared and quickly unplugged the power from the USB port. This caused the battery icon to stay on for like 10 sec and then it did the quick buzz. Woohoo I was in luck!!! I plugged it back in and hit the power button and it fired up.

What was unexpected was that the battery was completely flat! 0%

I had it plugged in all night and it was in this state. For some reason it would not take a charge but me pulling the plug at the time the battery icon showed up for some reason got it out of that loop and it started taking a charge.

Anyway hope this helps someone else that has this issue.

I like it very much, it's slim, fast and rock stable. In march i rooted and changed the original ROM to this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2189120. It's really stable and fast. Now i'm considering to change to this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44775438 This ROM now has some bugs, but I think the developer will fix it, and it will be as good as faust93's build.

I have never had or seen Ascend P1, but I had Galaxy S2.

You wouldn't regret this phone.

Huawei has more ppi and better CPU, but less storage.

I think I would choose S2 again as You can always overclock this phone and find some good ROM for use.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Da_Nuke:
I've been recently thinking about flashing the latest stable CyanogenMod into my Galaxy S3, having been really satisfied with CM 7.2.0 on the Galaxy Ace. However, having seen a friend of mine who flashed Cyanogen into his phone, I have a couple of insecurities about some system features I'm afraid I might lose.

Specifically:

Will I lose USB and wifi tethering? I use it to give my home computer internet without having to put my laptop's Ethernet and wifi on bridge mode, and back when I had my old Galaxy Ace, CM 7.2.0 didn't have USB tethering while Samsung's official ROM did.

Will I lose the power saving mode? I find it very, very useful when I go on a night out, which means having to keep the phone on for at least 12 hours straight. I kinda have seen that axing the phone's maximum CPU speed to 800 MHz kinda helps, as well as using GO Power Master's 3G pulse mode (so I can keep receiving messages while having the 3G off), but I have yet to do some extra testing.

Will I lose the notification bar toggles? When I checked my friend's Galaxy S3 with CyanogenMod, it didn't have any power toggles on the top bar. I tried using an app called Power Toggles, but My Data Manager interferes with it, it doesn't have full access to the system's toggles (like the GPS which as far as I know is per Jellybean's programming), and its flashlight also turns off after I lock the screen.

How do other third party launchers (Apex, Nova, GO) perform compared to Samsung's TouchWiz launcher? (haven't installed them yet because that would mean having to put again in folders every single shortcut for my ~200 apps).

Will I lose the NFC? I'm fine with settling for Android Beam instead of S Beam, but will I be able to keep the NFC function? I kinda remember my friend saying CyanogenMod 10.1 didn't support it.

Lastly, how does Cyanogen's camera compares to Samsung's? I find the picture stabilizer, button zoom, picture burst and panoramic stitch modes extremely useful, though I remember Cyanogen 7.2.0 having the ability to bind the volume up button to the shutter, which allowed for some seriously stable shots.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
1) no

2) can be replaced with various apps such as SetCPU

3) can have toggles like now or quick tiles. Choice of both. Or none.

4) Much better. Better on Touchwiz ROMS too

5) I dont use it but its in settings so I assume it works

6) Its not quite as good.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhirend_6d:
1-4) As answered above.

5) Yes it works.

6) Camera isn t as good as the stock Samsung camera. But everything pretty much works. Recently, touch to focus with flash also got fixed in CM.

Note : - If you try CM, I advice you to try Temasek s ROM. It is based on CM. And it has quite a few nifty features added extra + kernel with features ported from Andreilux kernel (Good battery backup) [This is just my personnel opinion and I am in no way advertising any ROM].
