Mines was also TPA, however i'm in the Trinidad and Tobago region so i changed my csc to TTT ( csc for trinidad & tobago ) via the csc-changer app on playstore. ( You need to be rooted to use this program).

I then downloaded the I9500UBUBMF3 firmware and flashed it with odin.

As for firmware changes, i noticed that battery life a tad bit better. I'm still testing this.

The smearing issue has been fixed as mentioned by another user.

To me the camera and gallery opening speed is just slightly better than before.

The phones does seem to get warm with light usage though.

Battery temp = 28C - 30C

Antutu Benchmark = 28013

Quadrant Benchmark = 13231

4 hours in since i charged it, with 1hr 32min screen time (heavy usage with 15 mins gaming and a couple benchmarks) and i have 65% battery left.

UPDATE 7h 35min , 50% charge left , 2h 10 mins screen time.

I noticed my app drawer and home screen has more lag than previous firmware. Stuttering during swiping the screen.

Phone seems to get a little more warmer during normal use than on previous firmware.

Meh, still getting the network disconnects when using 3G, it was actually better with MEA modem.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gillion:
It was the opposite for me.

It has to be something with the region modem... for me its very fine.
[Galaxy S 4 General] cmd512:
So you were getting the disconnects before?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gillion:
Yes... but not anymore
[Galaxy S 4 General] cmd512:
Holy hand grenade of Antioc, at least that's good news. That means this disconnect issue is software related and can be fixed.

I'm still getting the disconnects, but I'm in Taiwan currently on business... may need to try a regional modem then. Nothing like randomly hanging up on your customers...
[Galaxy S 4 General] marc_ecko28:
For sure you run antutu after updating. Let the rom settle first for 1 charge cycle then try to run antutu again.

so flashed back to SER MF3. seems cooler =D

I am using I9500XXUAMDK. Does this firmware non-wipe if I flash it with Odin?
[Galaxy S 4 General] Gillion:
It is non-wipe
[Galaxy S 4 General] unandroidemas:
yesterday installed via ODIN I9500UBUBMF3 firmware from I9500UBUAMDK and feels fine, more free ram and I think better manage of temperature, and all the new features working fine.

I9500ubuamdk

My phone has a baseband # I9500UBUAMDK. Every one got a stability update but i dont see any update yet. Last update that i got was in the second week of June. Can someone please tell me when i am gonna get the update for this version of octa core. I am sick of camera restart issue :@
[Galaxy S 4 General] negrobembon:
I was in the same boat as you, till yesterday, i decided to flash this version with odin and couldnt be happier, no more camera bug

So you better get flashing cause samsung is really slow
[Galaxy S 4 General] eko9mist:
Hey Thanks alot good to know you had a same version and problems as with my S4. Could you please tell me how did you flash your phone? have you got a newer version after flashing? Should i use KIES by samsung for all this?

Thanks again!
[Galaxy S 4 General] negrobembon:
No, you should use Odin, do a google search and it should pop up, then google search for instructions on how to use odin and youre set
[Galaxy S 4 General] serius666:
Thanks for the mirror. Starting to download. Later I'll post news.
[Galaxy S 4 General] serius666:
Hi guys... I'm now noticed that my phone is TPA too. Did anyone flashed TTT on this model of i9500????

I'll really appreciate your information.
[Galaxy S 4 General] negrobembon:
I did and it works great, fixes a few bugs like the camera one though the phone still freezes on very rare ocasions(3 times only) but its faster overall and smoother, data works perfectly.

i came from TPA too, and if previous samsung devices with TPA(ive had a few) are any indication, you might be waiting for months and months for ANY update or it might never come.

TLDR: If you want ANY update at all then avoid TPA like the plague
[Galaxy S 4 General] serius666:
Thanks so much... still downloading... :)

One more question. Do I have to change any thing before. Did you chage your CSC before or can I just use odin and flash the rom?
[Galaxy S 4 General] negrobembon:
I just flashed it straight, without changing anything

That way your device stays official and able to receive ota(unless you root)
[Galaxy S 4 General] Drukkie:
I'm currently on MEA and my 3G sucks....to a point where i sent my phone in....

let's see if this fixes it....

*holding thumbs*
[Galaxy S 4 General] negrobembon:
hope it worked for you
[Galaxy S 4 General] p1ngputts:
Did they change anything with regards to predictive text? Wishing it was a tad more like swiftkey.
[Galaxy S 4 General] Drukkie:
Whoooohoooo....ok so my signal has improved....people can actually phone me....lol

I havn't flashed the modem yet....

will do that now and see if i can see any improvement...

My Q10 on the same network still gets better signal so I believe there is still room for improvement....

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jphantomx:
My N4 gets very hot and very fast; after just 4 mins of running stability test 2.7 CPU is at 74C and Battery at 45C...and google's answer was factory reset..... what should i do now? :'(

Note: I'm running stock rom and kernel...
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
stop running the stability test. thats what the stability test does. now all you are doing is pushing your phones cpu for no reason, and crying about its temperature. good grief!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jphantomx:
But it is normal? I know it should get hot but not this fast.. Basically if I run any heavy game for more than 15mins it will get very hot......
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CMNein:
Were you charging via usb/ac/orb at the time?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jphantomx:
Nope, the idle temp of the CPU is ~40C and Battery is ~30C
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
its right in the middle of the normal range. sometimes it can get hotter, faster, depending how much you push the cpu/gpu. and it will coll down fast too. idle temp will depend on the surrounding temperatures. remember, human body temp is 37C, so 40C is just a little warmer than your body.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] shredder47:
Currently rocking a Nexus 4 on T-Mobile, but for a variety of reasons (quality of T-Mobile service, lack of LTE, battery life, 16GB being too small, etc) am considering switching...As such I've started looking at phones and I'm curious if you think the Note II is still a good buy?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Thedonk13:
im not going to lie....i was really skeptical about picking it up about 4 weeks ago since it is a pretty old machine now, but omg...it's blazing fast, enough juice to keep a heavy user happy in a slim form...i mean, those guys who are getting the zerolemon battery must really hate touching the charging cable....i listen to music all day long on my BT headset, make several calls, push mail, send about 75-100 texts a day, take about 30-40 pictures, and watch about 30-45 minutes of youtube and have yet to drain this little guy...

sure the Dev community is small, but it is full of quality dev's creating quality roms..i actually like them all and just keep bouncing around!!

4.2.2 aosp roms are running great, but i prefer the TW cam over AOSP....i would wish someone would create an TW based rom with AOSP apps....

regardless of the Note 3, this phone is still a powerful phone that is going to be a contender for awhile....the only thing the note 3 has over this,IMHO, is that new screen....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
All true. ...

And as once said. ..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] thunderx2000:
I am a heavy internet user on my Galaxy Note 2 and I receive about 2 maybe 3 calls a day on top of sending 50 to 60 texts a day. On my heaviest usage day, I get about 1 day on a single charge. But on my lightest usage day I get 3 days. But I have auto sync on everything turned off, GPS is off, outside of using cellular networks, auto-brightness is off with 30% brightness, 15 second screen timeout and S Pen battery saving checked. The only thing auto updating is Contacts and Calendar.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] AIDAKU:
I paid 330 on ebay for brand new with extras... so depends how much you get it for. Development is slow here though.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] snowmangoh:
Absolutely... I always have to have new gadgets, but I bought mine the day it released with AT&T and every time I think I might want a new phone I realize there is nothing out there (yet) that I want more than this one!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] jedimyndtryx:
I agree...had years and years of iPhones and traded a guy on CL for my iPhone 5. I'm very happy...like everyone says, it's very fast, battery life is great, screen size is great. Running CleanROM SE3.0 on mine with Perseus kernel, and a few AOSP themes and its exaclty how I want it to be. Very, very satisfied with my device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sling:
Great buy.

lol no slow developments found in Sprint & Verizon versions.

We have many more roms to choose from with different bases , ports and tweaks etc ATT development is fair
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] shredder47:
If I got one, it would be on contract with ATT and I can get one brand new for $100

And that would be keeping my Nexus 4 as well so I could switch as I desire
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] AIDAKU:
The att ones seem buggy to me...most of them. And samsung slow updates are kind of annoying but device is fun. I had nexus 4 loves its speed but got fed up with aosp roms, all the same + lack many features.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] sling:
Im not to fond of ATT bases myself which is why I go with International bases for the most part.

Samsung slow on updates?,,,,not really seeing they have released many updates for international that can be used on are device with a simple buildprop modification so ATT users aren't hurting for update hmm 4.2.2 would be nice though :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] AIDAKU:
Many updates but no 4.2.2 updates means 0 updates lol
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] softballjunkee13:
Development isnt really slow. When it comes to greatness......u can only get so high. I believe we are at the top right now. I don't think the roms and/or kernels can get any better right now. I believe they're top notch. I think we are just plateauing right now until a 4.2 leak or official is released. But it's Ok to plateau. ..... when ur on top.

I wouldn't want to b anywhere else right now!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] LittleRedDot:
I don't know why you people think the development is slow. Like another poster said most everything is top notch and it's hard to keep leaping forward when you're already at the top. And to say that no 4.2 is no development is assanign. I question whether some of you people will ever be happy.

To the op, this phone is blazing fast and no matter what carrier you choose you will be happy with the offerings, and the $100 price tag is definitely a good buy.

How can I DISABLE automatic installation of firmware updates to onto my phone?

I DO NOT want these firmware updates to be downloaded or installed automatically without my knowledge.

REASON >>> Because I want to look at the reviews from other S4 users to see how these firmware updates affect the phone"s performance, features, and etc....

So how can I disable these from automatically downloading and installing?

Also, not only the firmware updates, but "other" updates as well.

If possible, please attach a print screen on how to disable all updates.

Thanks

any thoughts or inputs would be welcome
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reignogleph MMXI:
PTMCWeb is completely right. Hitting "Software Update" takes you to a Boolean"Update Now" popup with no other option than choosing Yes, No or Wifi. No option to defeat future updates is offered.

Going into developer mode doesn't seem to add any pertinent options either (correct me if I'm wrong).

Clearly, Samsung doesn't want you to be able to disable updates unless or until you root, which I'm doing this weekend on the basis of this thread.

I recently rooted my Galaxy Exhibit 4G and installed the unofficial CM10 ROM. After a while I realized how slow everything was working, so I decided to turn back. However, when I tried to recover my previous backup (rooted stock) it gave me the stupid md5 error. followed directions on how to fix it, but then I had problems recovering the system and data. I then turned to Odin, but it didn't help, and my phone now tries to start up, reaches the Galaxy Exhibit 4G logo, and then fails to load, and tries over again. I can still access odin mode, but recovery won't boot and just reboots the whole system.

Can anybody

please

help me? What can I do? I tried to follow directions on the forums, and on the wiki, but everything just got worse. I have nowhere else to turn
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] yBrik:
Why not install a flavor of Gingerbread like Peach Sunrise or...gosh, I forget our GB days!

Honestly, look at Slimbean and an OC kernel. They've given me personally the best performance I've seen on this phone, but even they will slow down after a while. I do a fresh install every few months when the lag gets atrocious, keeps the phone spic and span.

There's only so much you can do on 300 Mb of ram- even on Gingerbread.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BrandonCormier:
Sounds like you will have to flash a recovery using Odin. Once in recovery then you can flash a rom. The reason your phone won't boot up is probably because it has nothing to boot into. Try cm7. I have been running it while waiting for my Lumia 521 to get here and it is amazingly fast. Fastest my phone has ever been.
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] danikvsn:
i used odin but i now have no access to recovery mode on my phone. every time i try to access i see the recovery logo but then it just reboots. i have factory phpne now which is already an improvement from the most brick my phone was beforre
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] BrandonCormier:
If you are using stock recovery then when you see the recovery screen hit the menu key. It should make the screen dim a bit. You should reboot into recovery then where you can flash cwm.
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] pettigrew95:
Hey everyone...so there was a bad rain storm in the area today and I had my phone on my lap while I was driving. Long story short I forgot it was there and when I parked I got out and my phone fell off my lap right into a puddle. It was totally submerged for roughly 5-8 seconds. I immediately ran into the house with it, took the case off (Incipio case), and pulled the battery out. It looked like the only places water had gotten to was the headphone jack, micro-USB port, the earpiece, and SIM and microSD slots. After removing the battery I began to hit all the areas where water could have gotten in with a blow dryer. I even unscrewed the screws from the back and took the back housing off to reveal the board inside. I was able to lift the board slightly but not a lot because I didn't want to rip the ribbon cables off of the front. After blow-drying it for quite some time everything seemed to be dry. I then put the battery back in and powered it up. The phone booted fine, I had service, all seemed fine. I was able to send/receive calls and texts and I could hear people fine and they could hear me. I tested WiFi, GPS, etc. everything seemed to work fine. The only thing I noticed is the LCD is dim on one half of the screen and brighter on the other side. I am wondering if as time goes on it will go away or if this is permanent LCD damage that I will just have to live with? Any ideas on anything I can try to get the LCD working 100% again? Thanks everyone in advance!
[Verizon HTC Droid Incredible 4G LTE] markrulesallnow:

mine was also submerged last night for about the same time. I took it apart completely and now it's laying in front of the fan before I go to work. Hopefully I'll be able to post back here later that mine works too!!

Howdy all -

I'm looking for a way to modify a Ipaq ROM to remove unused programs (or add useful ones). Specifically the Ipaq 4705.

Are there any tools around which would allow this to be done? I've looked at the wm2003 rom editor, but I believe that is only for modifying ROM updates in extended ROM, no?

Any hints or pointers to resources appreciated!

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j0hn0n1:
I'm just wondering if anybody else is having a similar problem. I've read through a lot of the posts about bootlooping but none seem to fit the problems that I'm having...

I've got an International HTC One, S-Off'd and running Trickdroid 7.5.0. The ROM flashed and worked fine, in fact I've been using it for the past 3 months and used different versions of Trickdroid in that time, even flashed the Trickdroid Tweaks and it worked fine, but anytime I try to flash anything on top of it, it bootloops.

I've tried flashing the 30 step volume mod, the Xposed framework and a few other small modifications and it goes straight into a bootloop. Doesn't matter wether I clear the cache afterwards or not. The only thing that puts it right again is to restore it from CWM.

I don't know if it's a handset problem, a Trickdroid problem or wether it's all the 4.2 builds for this device. The exposed Framework worked on the original stock rom, so I will try another but I haven't had time at the moment, I was just wondering if anybody else had a similar problem...

Thanks ...John...

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TarekElsakka:
That happened to me when I installed Xposed Framework as well, so I am guessing there's a compatibility issue with Trickdroid 7.5.0. And no, it's not your device.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j0hn0n1:
It seems that anything that I try and flash seems to cause the problem, apart from the initial ROM install and the Tweaks app. Whether I do them all at once or individually, it's still the same...

I tried flashing the 30 step volume mod again and it still wouldn't boot. I tried with the flashlight on the sensor but it still didn't make any difference (worth a try).

I'll probably try it with ARHD or InsertCoin at the weekend when I'm not in work, just to see if it works, it's a pitty because I like Trickdroid and don't really want to get rid of it...

Thanks ....John...
