Okay,I got the phone everything is all good,not rooted,stock everything,but one problem is I can't use a Third Party keyboard,I download the keyboards from the play store right? But how I can use em? The stock keyboard is still showing up,third party keyboards ain't workin,no option to even change the default keyboard.
[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
Activate the keybord in settings, then just click in any text box, you should see a keyboard image appear in your status bar, pull the status bar down and click on "choose input method" then choose K/B you want :)

This is stock firmware thread ;) it has nothing to do with rooting :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] curgervending:
AdamLange,

Do you know if the modem file is embedded in these firmware updates?

I am considering trying different regions to see if the ROM gives me a better signal. I am in the USA (phone not yet released here so there is no version optimized for any carrier here as yet).

The phone I got came with version I9200UBUAME5 (Trinidad and Tobago). If the modem is not included in the firmware then it is a moot point. Or if the same modem is used across all firmware versions, it, again, is a moot point and no sense in me wasting time trying. Let me know.

I'm not pleased with my current firmware. My old XPERIA Mini is faster in some situations!!!:p
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
My 9205 Roms worked on the 9200 so this should be ideal as it is based on a 9200 Rom anyway.

I flashed it about an hour ago, nothing bad to report but nothing much better either, yet.

thanks for the firmware links, but I need a stock kernel in order to flash it after I rooted my phone.

Can anyone help please?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
Download the file and extract the kernel from it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Daruosh:
Ok, I decompressed the zip file and it had a tar.md5 file. I renamed it into .tar and extract the boot.img from the new tar file. Then compressed the boot.img into official.tar. Am I right? can I flash this tar file as a kernel (PDA option) with Odin?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
When compressing you should use the command tar -H ustar -c boot.img > boot.tar

It might work anyway, try it and see, if ODIN doesn't like it you can't flash it.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] devo3d:
I was wondering if there are some flashable fonts for this phone. I have some that I used on my old Evo 3D. Could they be used or do they need to be set up especially for this device?:cool:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
Download the font(s) you want, push them to /system/fonts, rename them using the names of the built-in fonts you want to replace, and reboot.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] devo3d:
Hey, I appreciate the tip, Thanks!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] devo3d:
Hmmm, I pushed and renamed but can't install ..... wonder what I'm doing wrong?

Whats the best way to install them after pushing them? BTW, I'm on ZVB.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] javskies:
you could always use rom toolbox
[Sprint LG Optimus G] devo3d:
Thats what I thought, I used it, renamed the file and copied and replaced the file in "Fonts" and it seemed to work. So I went to Rom Tool box to install it, rebooted and Nadda.:confused: Do I need to be on a custom Rom? I am Rooted and Unlocked on ZVB.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] devo3d:
Ok, I got it finally. On the stock ZVB Rom under Display/Fonts, there are only certain ones available to use even though there are a lot more in the Fonts folder under System. So, I had to pick the ones in that list to replace. A small catch is that if there is a name of a font there, such as "HYCoffee" in the Fonts folder there are as follows: HYCoffee_Bold.ttf and HYCoffee_Regular.ttf. You have to replace both if you want it to look right. Just so happens I picked Black Chancery folder and it had bold and regular in it so I replaced the other ones accordingly. As I was instructed to do earlier in this thread I just renamed mine to the ones I wanted to write over, copy and paste, then went to the Display settings and picked HYCoffee and Whalla!! Looks Reeeaaal Gooood Too :D:D

THANKS FOR EVERYONES INPUT!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
I haven't used a stock-based ROM in ages, so there are a few minor differences (I don't have a Display > Fonts for instance), but I'm glad you got it figured out!
[Sprint LG Optimus G] devo3d:
I usually prefer custom Roms but other than Lifeless, they all seem a little under developed yet. When more of the bugs get ironed out I'll install one. I had a couple already with this new ZVB and I just wasn't happy. Today I downloaded a WiFi Hotspot App but I couldn't get it to work so I'm going to try and figure that out today. If I was on a ZVB custom Rom I wouldn't be having any connectivity problems I don't think but I''m going to try and work with this stock one for a while.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Morningstar:
Again, it's been a while, but if I recall correctly there was only 1 tethering app that I could ever get to work right on stock. I think it was just called "Wifi Tether" (had a yellow icon), and only an older version seemed to work properly. Look around in the Lifeless thread, I know it was posted in there somewhere, along with how to adjust the settings to get it working.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] devo3d:
Yeah, I finally found it after searching all day and downloading countless wifi apps. Its WiFi Tether by TrevE Mod. You have to use his settings though. Thanks for your input. :good:
[Sprint LG Optimus G] BMP7777:
If you're rooted, you can just use Font Installer app. I have been using it for years. Its free and works well with all ROMs and devices - at least in my experience. I add it to all my ROM builds and it hasn't caused an issue yet. It comes with a decent selection of installed fonts to choose from, and you can also download fonts to your device and access the font file through the app. It will show you what they look like and install them. But, be forewarned, some fonts don't play nice and will cause a bootloop. In my experience, the really fancy and 'thicker' looking fonts usually bork due to size issues.
[HTC Droid DNA] hobby31:
I'm recently soff using the moonshine method. I've been playing around with different ROMs and recently flashed a 4.2.2 ROM Jellybeer (I think it was.) I had a gnex before the DNA and remember that 4.2.2 changes the file structure somehow and adds a folder "0" in you sdcard partition. I played with Jellybeer and decided to go back to Viper Rom and after booting into recovery my backups where gone. Remembering from my gnex flashing that the file structure changes I booted back into jellybeer and used root explorer and saw that I now had a folder "0" on the sdcard partition with my files in it. After searching in just the sdcard partition I found my backups in the TWRP folder. (I'm using the touchwork mod recovery). I had to move them to the "0" folder, then TWRP folder in order to see them in recovery. Also, I use titanium for some backup of apps which I had to direct titanium to see them in the new "0" folder. Now, when I reboot into recovery to flash something or backup/restore something it has to be in the "0" folder. Is there a way to revert this? or an RUU to flash the device back to stock? I know in 4.2.2, this is the way the file structure is going to be to allow the use of user accounts so each user has there own folder. I remember on the gnex that the CWM recovery was modified to take this into account so backups wouldn't get lost.

Also, let this be a warning for those flashing 4.2.2 roms, the file structure gets changed and if you don't know how to get them back you might get stuck.

Anyway, anyone have a solution for this? Thanks
[HTC Droid DNA] TechSavvy2:
You don't think that maybe your "question" should go in..........the Q&A Section?
[HTC Droid DNA] kelvinnotcalvin:
Check out the TWRP thread in original development (last couple pages). Beaups provided a couple different solutions to return the file structure back to 4.1.x

German language

Hello,

I too have bought a Mega 5.8 in Bangkok today but it does not cover German language. Does anybody know which Firmware Rom covers it?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Pxlmoeller:
language issues solved

okay, I worked it out myself but here something for others who seek a solution for their language issues:

The Taiwan version covers all European languages including German, Spanish, French, English ... just download the ROM, unzip it and flash the tar/md5 onto your device via Odin. No root or whatsoever is needed, I did it shortly after taking the device out of the box and it works great.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] love_alone_2012:

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
Root is not persistent anyway, so if the Rom hasn't been modified you will need to re-root anyway.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] bongski55:
This is what I follow--correct me if I am wrong:

Look at the changelist number. If it does not have the same changelist number with any of the previous then it is the latest. However even if it is released in October if it has the same changelist as one in August then it is not considered 'new" firmware.

There is also the buildprop but it is not available readily.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] ngbolos:
Could someone please walk me through this? I also bought the Chinese version of the 5.8 (I live in china). Google play, google maps is all blocked and locked.

I tried flashing the Taiwan mod, but it did not change my firmware. I will type my steps out here, if I made a mistake please tell me :).

1st, I rooted it using odin.

2nd, I verified the root with programs that require it.

3rd. Powered off, hit volume down, power button, and home button at the same time.

Opened odin, I put the firmware rom in the pda slot.

4th, hit start.

5th let it run after this it auto booted my phone, and said successful, but when I checked it out, it was still the same old version?

my phone just hacked by program named: freedom.apk

i want to flash my galaxy mega 5.8 ROM, because just installed freedom.apk, it says can "free" commercial app on playstore. now what? my Android cannot access playstore. it says: "cannot estabilish secure connection", i deleted my account on my phone, and try again, and it say the same, i wipe my data, and nothing can bring my Playstore work. so i decided to install ROM on my rooted device. be careful if you install this freak app...:crying: thanks for the link...:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Indian Devil:
You need to be really careful while installing these kind of applications.

Anyways from what I know about that app you need to stop it before uninstalling it, if you don't do that then you will have problem with Play store.

I would say reinstall that app and then Stop it and check if the problem is solved, in theory it should.

Good luck

2 primary uses of root for me:

1. Is to be able to use the sd card for application data via gl 2 sd app

2. To use titanium backup

I also use TWRP recovery to backup the whole phone as I try new firmware and go back to previous in case I change my mind.

Everything depends on individual.
