Request for Guide...

Could you please release a guide, as to how you enabled typing alpha-numeric contacts?

The reason I ask for the guide is bec I tried your mms app, but i'm getting force close on opening the messaging app.

(On my phone, name of the app is 'SecMmsDS.apk'. I tried both names: SecMmsDS.apk and MmsDS.apk)

I'm also sick of getting messages from Vodafone(despite being on NDNC list).

I am on Samsung Young (S6312); 4.1.2 JB.

[General Questions and Answers] IlyesDaoudi:
Hello,

(excuse me for errors in my language)

Do you think we have reach the limits of performance and usability with the latest hardware available on the market for our smartphone ?

We can put it this way: Do you think it is still useful to buy smartphone with more powerful hardware than S4 or this type of phone ?

They are definitly smooth, and for their use, I think pay for more is useless.

But maybe their use will change, they will somehow replace our desktop pc in the way we can connect them to screen and mouse everywhere we go (I know that ubuntu touch already does this).

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Trozzul:
I'm sure we haven't reached out limits. Android owns the phone market right now and I'm sure it will go a long way. As for the price the price will always be crap. I think the highest phone for a no contract I have seen was a iPhone 5 for 700. I'm sure the prices will keep going up.
[General Questions and Answers] pr0xZen:
The industry will always strive to develop faster, smaller and more efficient hardware. And software developers will always find new ways to make use of that hardware.

Smartphones are becoming more and more multi-purpose platforms. With USB OTG, this direction is clearly defined. The increasing screen size is also a product of that. You can already use many phones as a more grown-up multimedia device, connected to your AV equipment and external controllers. This opens up a whole different arena, both in regards to software possibilities, and harware requirements accordngly.

There really is no real limit as to how far this train will go - especially considering the ammount of money people are willing to pay for their phones. And with the chinese marked and developement coming rushing up like a mountain on wheels from behind - both development time and price level is likely to drop a little, rather than increase.
[General Questions and Answers] :
Moore's law. A model that predicts the experiential increase of computing power. As for cellphones, I think it is about demand and supply. The processors in the latest phones have reached a limit threshold on what a consumer would use it for. Before when processors was lacking, consumers wanted better ones resulting in manufacturer competition on who has the fastest phone. First the 1GHz race then the quad core race and now we have 2GHz quad cores. There is now not as much demand for faster CPUs in phones atleast so manufacturers and focusing on other areas to compete for who has the best phone such as better battery, better screen, fast 4G, lighter, etc.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snwman:
To cut a long story short. I bought a Galaxy s4 off the father he got it free renewing his contract but hates touchscreen. Now the phone was on vodafone ireland and has all this bloatware on it which i know i can get rid of and have by rooting and using titanium backup. But im on Three service provider. Which uses a different modem and csc and pda. Plus the girlfriend get better reception on her s4 and she bought it off three.

Now ive downloaded the firmware that she is on, of one of the threads on the I9505 forum. My question is if i flash it with odin will it overwrite the csc or do i have to flash stock recovery again and wipe factory settings and then flash the firmware to change csc and pda.

I have flashed the modem that she uses but has not really helped

I haven't owned an HTC phone since the Evo and needless to say, quite a bit has changed. I'm hoping to turn my T-Mobile One into the Dev edition and I'm just wondering about the positives and negatives. I'm assuming all future updates on the Dev edition would come directly from HTC correct? Also, will my LTE or any other features be negatively affected if I make this change? Lastly, would the entire phone be wiped during this process?

Thanks for the assistance. I still gotta read up on this SuperCid stuff.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filthykid:
Oh boy.. I have started getting this error SO MUCH, for the past few months. Earlier I thought this was my operator's issue but if other N4 users are also getting it then it may be some issue with the phone's software or something. Plus, no one else who uses the same network at my home or friends are getting this issue. :s

Basically during a covnersation, often people start textimg me "hey where did u go"... or "u there" etc.. And infact I actually am replying them but they are not getting my messages. So I restart my phone and there I see "Message not sent" error in notification and a lot of red triangular icons in inbox conversations.

What to do :s
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] texaslittleangel:
SOLVED

Found the following solution that worked like a charm!

1. Install Handcent SMS from Android Marketplace

2. Launch Handcent SMS

3. Press Menu Button >> More + >> Undelivered messages

4. Here you can delete undelivered conversations and end your "messages not sent" woes!"
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awionetka:
It did not worked for me. Handcent was showing one undelivered message, but was unable to remove it. Maybe because both recipient and body was empty.

Very strange.

The solution was to:

1. install this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.riteshsahu.SMSBackupRestore

2. do a backup,

3. remove all messages from SMS app (you can do it in one shot from menu),

4. restore,

5. problem gone.

It's clearly an android bug.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Your imei is generic, if you have efs backup restore it

Otherwise flash stock rom +wipe if it doesn't solve then better send to service station.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nimraynn:
Shame, I thought that might be the case.

I've just done a stock ROM flash and wipe which resolved the baseband issue... but it hasn't restored the IMEI. Unfortunately the backup I took didn't include the EFS when I thought it did so I have no backup to restore. :(

I'm just fiddling with a few things but not holding my hopes up. I might try a few things and if it doesn't work by the weekend, then I'll just unroot, try to clear the flash history and take it into CPW and say it's broken and I don't know why... see how it goes...
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nimraynn:
Not got much further with this to be honest. I've asked a friend who has the same device if he can send me a copy of his EFS folder that I could have a dig around with to see if I can find anything, but waiting on that at the moment... He sent me his nv_data.bin and nv_data.bin.md5, but when I put these in the EFS folder and rebooted (with no SIM for safety), it still pulls out the dummy IMEI number...

Someone has suggested to me to search around on here for the standard PIT file, to flash that and then flash a stock pre-rooted ROM which should sort it all out. I've not heard of this before, but from a quick search I've found that PIT is Partition Information Table... which suggests this is going to completely re-build the partition table and then flash a new device. Is this advisable, and do you think it could resolve my issue?

I've managed to install TriangleAway and reset the custom flash count to 0, so it no longer reports as custom firmware... I may just take it to CPW tomorrow and see what they say before I even think about messing with this PIT stuff anymore.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adytum:
Unfortunately, EFS is a little more complicated than a folder with a few files, it's a dedicated partition which generally can't be restored without a backup.

Using somebody else's folder won't work, and actually using another imei is probably illegal since every phone is supposed to have one unique imei.

I've read that people some times miraculously get back their imei after flashing stock rom, but since you've tried it, I don't think there's realistically much to do besides sending to service.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kailashnj:
I had faced the same issue and was able to get the IMEI back. Even I did not have the backup of the EFS folder. Go through the thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2331833

Try to find a stock rom which has all three - CSC, Modem and PDA available. Install it with PIT from ODIN. (I installed 4.1.1) Once installation is complete, you should be able to see you IMEI number correctly. Root the device and take the back up of the EFS Folder and install any rom that you need. Hope this helps.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
This is illogical

Flashing 3 files have no more role than flashing stock rom +wipe

On The contrary flashing 4.1.1 may brick your device.

what about Kies emergency recovery ? did u tried it ? :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nimraynn:
I wasn't planning on actually using someone else's folder, but more using it to test if that was firstly 100% definitely my issue, and secondly to see if I could dig around to try and work out what might actually be wrong with the /efs directory. I have absolutely no intention of using someone else's IMEI, which is the reason why I took the SIM card out before booting it up with the new nv_data.bin.

I'll take a look and see, but I've tried a stock ROM already and it's not worked. :(

Why would flashing 4.1.1 brick the device? I used a stock ROM to flash back to and according to About Device, I'm currently running 4.1.1?

I haven't, I'll take a look and see. :)

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nimraynn:
Thank you so much for this suggestion! I tried it, but unfortunately Emergency Recovery wouldn't detect that my device needed it. I guess it technically didn't as the OS was working, just didn't have a working IMEI...

However, it did keep popping up telling me there was an update for the device, and everything had a different version number. PDA, PHONE and CSC all had completely different versions to what was flashed... so I thought, what harm can it do? Hit update, let it do it's thing and hey presto! I have a working device again! :good:

I'm doing my happy dance. Saved me a trip to CPW tomorrow! :fingers-crossed:

Mobile network not available

Hi Dr.Ketan and everyone else on here.

I've been following/installing Roms and posts on XDA since the original HTC desire days before moving onto an S2 and then the Note 2, strangely enough is my first post. I have been following the progress of this rom since early October and finally decided to give it a try with the more matured version 3.

The Rom worked well and I can see this pretty much being ready as new daily Rom (ProBam is my current daily). There is one problem though that I have spent half the day trying to figure it out, I thought someone here might be able to give me advice. I did a backup in Philz then and full wipe before installing the Rom.

After the Rom loaded everything that I tried seemed to work quite well, apps in general were fluid and from what I could see things were as they should be. When trying to text or make calls I ran into “Mobile network not available” problems. When installing the rom I did select the MI6 modem. So far I have tried.

1.	Checking the sim card (testing it in another phone)

2.	Contacting my cellular provider (Cell C in South Africa) to make sure they didn’t block me for any reason (which they didn’t).

3.	I went into network settings to manually select my network (it wont register to Cell C).

4.	I tried restoring Probam again which works but now get “Mobile network not available" problems on that Rom, the same issue on todays nightly Cyanogen 10.2 which does indicate that this is a problem with other Roms now.

I did some hunting on Google and see that others have had similar problems with Samsing phones where their EFS folder gets corrupted and IMEI number becomes 0000. In my case it looks like my IMEI number is still there and when I checked my Philz backup I learnt today that a standard Philz backup doesn’t by default backup the EFS folder (just my luck). Short of downloading a 1 gig stock rom using crappy South Africa internet and flashing it with Odin might there maybe be a quicker way that I have overlooked?

Beyond this thanks for a really great Rom, I am curious what would cause this problem with the V3 Rom so that no one else is affected with this, I have flashed other Roms over the years and not had this one yet :>

Thanks!!

Phone + IMEI + Baseband Unknown

[MENTION=3931450]dr.ketan[/MENTION] , Sir, Please Help

Well, first timer to Custom ROM upgrades....I was looking through some threads, came across a particular ROM, found it very interesting..went ahead & flashed it...didnt work.

Reason: My Peanut brain failed to check the version of the Note2 it was meant for. My bad.

I didnt backup EFS. (my bad again, actualy i didnt knew I had to )

It override my existing Modem & took my Baseband & IMEI to unknown.

I look through whole night trying to undo what I did on XDA forum...did get quite some helpful links but nothing could solve mine.

The most common advise on the forum was to take it to the Samsung service centres & let them put the stock officla firmware.

Well, I took it to the service this morning, they put the stock 4.1.2 version..i was hoping that would solve my query.

To my dismay, the service guy told me that the Phone was showing as Unknown (screen shot 1) & that in that case the IMEI cannot be resolved.

One option he gave me was to pay up 8k (about 134 USD) to change the motherboard but honestly i dont have that much

Please advise....Is there any way i can resolve this.

As the thread title suggests, I want to relock my Xperia S and install a stock rom so I can use SUS and PCC again to keep my phone up to date.

I searched around and found different ways to relock the phone and how to return to the stock rom, but it's just not clear to me yet what steps I need to follow or where I can find the roms/kernels to flash. To make it clear, I want to:

1. Remove my custom rom and custom kernel and return to stock rom and kernel.

2. Relock my bootloader.

There's just so many threads with so many different stock kernels/roms and it's making me so confused. If someone could tell me what steps I need to follow and link the threads I should be using, that'd be great!
