[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lickwidice:
Hi XDA

I've messed around with a couple of different ROMS and have settled for Slimbean as I think it offers me all the features that I require and is very lightweight. I have recently run into an issue where I cannot access the service mode menu (*#0011#), I would like to change my network band selection but these ROMS do not offer me this feature.

I am looking to go back to the Official Samsung ROMS, just have a couple of small questions.

1) Before official JB got released, one of the developers released a version of Samsungs leaked Jelly Bean which had philz kernel, completely deodexed and had bloatware removed (most of the samsung apps). Is there something like this for the latest official ROM?

2) If there isn't then I will have to go and do this my self, what is the quickest way to take the Official Samsung ROM and do the following:

a) Remove most of the bloatware, as far as I understand I could just remove these APKs and rebuild the ROM? am I correct?

b) Have it rooted already so that I can put the ROM up so that others can use it.

Your assistance with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks =)

hi guys! ..i´ve got a problem with my phone :/ the situation is that

1)My computer does not recognize it!, as soon as i plug it windows says it could recognize it ,that is not working properly (like a broken usb flash drive) so is not about drivers or something like

2)When i plug it to the charger(original stock samsung charger) it does charge the phone ...but takes a life time! i cant use it when charging because even pluged the battery begins to discharge

i´m using stock kernel and stock jelly bean rom

is it software? is the usb flex broken?

i dont really think is software but well u never know and im not sure bout the usb flex because it still charging the phone sloooow but charges :s does it mean something? or is broken but just about to die ?

after my s3 began to lagg i formated sd card and did a factory reset and saw i still had pictures and music + 10gb space used in the phone itself

after investigating i found out the folder ''0'' in my phone was full i checked it and it was like an android map in the android (with dcim full of pictures..)

then inside the ''0'' map there was another folder also called ''0'' with cointained the same .. xD (jo dawg i put android in your android in your android so you can android while you android)

how can i get rid of it becouse this is taking to much space..

please help<3

edit: i can't copy anything to normal phone map..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Rooted? What rom?

This is a result of having 4.2 at some point. Please read the thread in my signature about 4.2 and sd card for some background info.

We need more details from you though. Please read the thread first then answer questions
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gojordygo:
im sorry i i have omega 45.1

BUT I REMOVED IT AFTER 2 DAYS

rebooted into recovery and did a few wipes and formated everything i could and it's working great :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Gotcha. Yep, when you go from a rooted 4.2.x ROM back to a 4.1.x ROM, often the permissions for "0" can prevent deletion. If this is teh case, a format of /sdcard will usually sort that out (from recovery)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CellPhish:
I was really impressed when I heard that Simple Mobile uses T-Mobiles frequency and SM also have HSPA+. What I really didn't like was the fact that their 3G is really slow :( . Before throttle my speed would be 12 down and 2 up, after throttle it would stick as 0.23 kbps down and 0.10 kbps up. My question is how is the 3G on T-Mobile? I heard that they increased the speed on 3G for T-Mobile. I'm really considering of doing the 50$ plan for T-Mobile (i use up a lot of minutes). If I get throttled how fast is 3G? Is it as close as their HSPA+? I dont mind the 3G speed as long as its good enough speed. I know they have the 30$ plan with 5gb of data, but like I said I tend to use up a lot of minutes.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpookyTunes:
What plan on SIMPLE do you have? While $40 is 250 MB High Speed data, then throttled to 2G, their $50 plan has unlimited High Speed Data.

It they throttle you on the $50 plan, I would call them and ask WTF?

If you need tethering, then switching to T-Mobile makes more sense.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thfreedumb:
T-Mobile users get priority over simple users. Something to consider.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nightmare1708:
I have a GT-i9300 running foxhound 2.4 with the latest Persues kernel and have been having a stange issue, for the second time this month my phone did a strange type of rset. The phone froze so i took out the batterty and restarted it, it was hanging at the bot screen for a very long time. The same amount of time that it does after having flashed a new rom. After waiting it reboots as if I have switched my phone on for the first time and have to select my language. The problem is that any app that i have installed on the phone no longer works and I have to reinstall each app. Also every stock app included in the rom need to be updated. It is almost as if the rom itself reset and I have the version of the app included with the rom installed. This is the second time that this has happened. Is there anything known to cause this?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
My best guess is your data partition is corrupted during your freeze, the phone recovers but you lose all data - an automatic factory reset. Perhaps if you left the phone long enough it would recover, pulling the battery could be the cause of corruption. I'd return it to fully stock and see if it happens again, if it does then warranty repair is required.

Try the sds and unusual freezing threads for more info, it could be the start of half sds.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolnessQ:
So im not the only one who had that problem? I have got the same problem when installed 4.2.1 leak for the first time total random reboots freezes, boot hanging and it was still stuck also when switching back to 4.1.2, and somehow its not anymore on my phone, changed recovery to philz, changed kernels to perseus and that gave me speed and broke somehow the freezes, i have now tested the v4.2.2 leaks and im now on SentinelRom4.70 without any glitches etc real speed and batterij safe :)

the phone lags really bad though. can't even type on the bloody thing. is there much I can do to make it smoother. my boot loader can't be unlocked.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] realwillow:
Hi,

Fully appreciate there are several threads related to the how's etc, and I've been following them for several months since I first did my own repair back in January.

This is more re a question related to LOCA.

Several people have attempted repairs using this now, with varied results. I've been looking into the various types available and I'm curious as to the exact types people have used, where they got it from and the exact processes they have tried.

Some of the above information is in the two major glass repair threads, but hopefully this thread will help collate it into one and I can make more sense out of this.

Any input greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I haven't carried out this repair but for what its worth personally, I wouldn't try using LOCA myself. I'd just stick it round the edges and leave a void between glass and screen.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
It's what htc used for my previous phone, makes it easier to replace the glass next time but it can suck dust in between the glass and screen over time.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] realwillow:
I can see the benefits to both using it and not.

As it stands I do not have an haven't had any location in my screen for the last 6+ months. General use of the phone is fine, but it's also a pain in the arse. I can no longer type quickly on it, having to press the same buttons repeatedly etc.

I've had the glass back up a few times to clean dust etc, an I am also considering replacing the coating that should be on stop of the glass as I feel that may help also.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Yeah. It's what most phones use from factory, including the s3. I just think if I were doing the repair myself, I wouldn't use it. I think it may be difficult to get right.

That said, if I was having it professionally repaired, I would insist on it.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeathX8:
I have a problem with Zencefil V17 on stock kernel. I can't overclock my CPU i tried with no frill's CPU and Antutu CPU master but maximum is only the stock 600 Mhz.

Pls help me.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xWhiskey:
Does it have the overclock module and does it load properly? As far as I know if you have stock kernel the only way to overclock is via module.

Check system/lib/modules if you have x8oc.ko. I suppose that's the file you're going to use to overclock the phone. If you don't then download it and put it there.

If you have it, open Terminal Emulator and write:

su

dmesg | grep x8oc

You should receive the output that it loaded successfully. If you get no output, the module isn't running.

If you have it and it isn't running, then open Terminal Emulator and write:

su

insmod system/lib/modules/x8oc.ko

This should run the module and allow you to switch frequencies. Start testing the frequencies with whatever CPU app you use.

When you're satisfied with the performance, add the insmod command to hw_config in system/etc and echo the clock value that suits you. You can find more information about this in the x8oc thread. Don't worry about reboots, make a backup before trying, and make sure you don't edit the hw_config file until you're sure the clock is stable.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] rsngfrce:
This is driving me insane at the moment! I went into the system/media/audio folder and removed and added some sounds to the alarm, notification, and ringtone folders. Set all the permissions cortectly. The sounds were working fine for a while, but now when I go into Ringtones and Notifications settings within Sound settings, none of the sounds are showing up, not even the stock sounds that I didn't remove.

I've double checked the permissions, wiped the Dalvik Cache and Cache, fixed sll permissions with TWRP, still no sounds. The Ringtones setting gives an option to add ringtones, and I can individually add sounds in the system/media/audio/ringtones folder, but I don't want to have to do that for all of them, and this also displays the ".mp3" part of the filename rather than just the name of the sound, which I don't like.

This worked on my E4GT and I assume it should work on the G4... anybody have any idea on how I can fix this? Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] rsngfrce:
I had a zip of the stock system sounds stored on my ExtSD card. I unzipped it and copied back into the system. Then the system was finding the sounds again I thought... but when I deleted the unzipped folder of sounds from my ExtSD, all the sounds disappeared again. For some reason, my system is no longer finding the sounds in the system folder... :confused:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] rsngfrce:
Well, in my ongoing effort to solve this myself, I put the just the stock sounds back into the system, and after rebooting they are recognized again. Can they not be changed in the GS4? I'm going to try just removing the ones I don't want and see if that sticks...
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ScouseCarl:
Hey people.

I rooted my ANDROID HTC ONE from T mobile, using a guide I found on here and the all in one toolkit.

I am using TWRP newest 2.5.0.0, I can access the bootloader and recovery, and have been sat here now looking for answers for about 5 hours.

It freezes on the HTC quietly brilliant screen.

Also says that there is no OS installed.

I am looking for help via TEAMVIEWER, or someway to get my phone working.

If you need more information please let me now ASAP so I can give it you.

UPDATE: Okay people I successfully installed the XenonHD ROM and it is now stuck in bootloop i have tried clearing the cache and it doesn't do anything, this is the only ROM that is currently working.

I have searched the net searched the post and still nothing.

I am almost got my phone back guys and am willing to DONATE or repay the favour via modding something through XBOX or whatever I can.

Please contact me soon as possible.

I am still on TEAMVIEWER.

Changed my recovery to ClockWorkMod Touch.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] stevedebi:
There have been a lot of posts on similar issues. You can "sideload" a ROM via ADB commands from your computer. If you can get into recovery, your phone can be fixed. I haven't done this myself (still stock), but do a search on google or xda on sideloading a ROM from ADB.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ScouseCarl:
Already tried sideloading, said it was complete successfully on the phone and on the computer, never worked still says no OS installed.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] stevedebi:
Did you clear the cache? Also, I've seen some people have to format the partitions.

EDIT: But formatting does not seem to be needed if you sideloaded successfully.

You have to be careful with No o.s installed .

Normally if u reboot when u see that you'll brick.

Without a o.s you have no bootloader..

I bricked my s3 and had to jtag it when it said no o.s I rebooted and black blank screen nothing.

I've had this happen also when choosing format system and format data /media some reason it botches the boot up .

My only fix was to sideload a rom or wipe factory and restore a nandroid .
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ScouseCarl:
Thankyou.

How long is that about as I am in UK.

No i got a ROM working, the XenonHD.

I am basically I think stuck in a bootloop, I am currently sideloading the ROM again wiped the data and that.

So going to check again inabit.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] nexicon:
After all that did you try erasing cache one more time? Maybe through recovery or fastboot?

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ScouseCarl:

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] iamfightaa:
in about 2 - 3 hours from now.

---------- Post added at 04:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:08 PM ----------

my recomendation is that you get s -off and supercid asap so next time you run into a similar problem you can just install any ruu(note only do this if your phone has no official ruu) and work it out from there.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] stevedebi:
What ROM did you flash? It should say if it was rooted (most are).
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] lojak29:
What you need to do is this exactly .

Dload a rom on pc reboot recovery on phone first .IMORTANT FIRST FORMAT SYSTEM.

Then when that's done choose factory reset.

Rename the rom to Rom.zip or anything you want but make sure it says.zip

Sometimes sideload won't work if roms not renamed , that's mentioned in another thread about sideloading.

Then sideload the rom

Let it load and install .

When it reboots itl take a while .

I just did this to my HTC one the other day after I got stuck after formating data media .
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] ScouseCarl:
Yeah my phone is currently working now, but I have no play store nor do I now if my phone is rooted.

I have a custom ROM on it XenonHD. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2290785

Just currently trying to get to grips on how to work it and that.

I can't download the playstore because it says it is currently installed but it is nowhere to be seen.
[Java for Android App Development] Nx Biotic:
So in my toolkit, id like to design an activity where I could point it towards certain lines in the build.prop to allow a user to easily toggle, for instance this line

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

So, in the layout xml, lets say it had "Enable Nav Bar" and a "Toggle Button" for on/off

Where would i start in developing such a feature?
[Java for Android App Development] nikwen:
You create a ToggleButton and whenever it is clicked, you change the line.

What is your problem?
[Java for Android App Development] Nx Biotic:
My concerns are wouldnt I need to add ro permissions on the prop before toggling and a reboot action to apply
[Java for Android App Development] zalez:
I think your device needs to be rooted to be able to write to the build.prop file. You do not need root access to read it though
[Java for Android App Development] xcesco89:
I'm from mobile and i can't post some code but i will give you some hints :D

To edit build.prop programmatically first you ne ed to be rooted then you can use the shell command "sed" to exchange values. Take a look at AOKP settings source on github and look for density changer class :)

If you want to import various build properties you can use fileinputstream and read the file line by line then let the app create listview custom items for every line in the file (you need a custom adapter) .

Sorry if this post it's not really useful but i will edit this when at PC :)

Thankyou for the tip! The answer might of been infront of my face possibly...
[Java for Android App Development] Nx Biotic:
I Wrote something up but I keep getting force closes "Not a java code monkey yet, still learning" and Ill post here what I have when I get to my pc later. Maybe you can see what Im missing or did wrong. What I did is I have a preference screen similiar to AOKP density changer class. What Im going for is a PreferenceList that you click and your values are Enable or Disabled and another preference to reboot to apply settings. Im wanting to allow the user to enable and disable the Navigation Bar by toggling it through the build.prop. If this works, I want to add more toggles custom values like change your phone model, Screen Density, build number, ect; but figured Id start with something simpler first and see if it works.
