Hey folks. Just heard the 4.1.2 update is out. I am requesting for the stock koodo 4.1.2 with root injected into it. Preferably a flashable zip I can use through recovery. Seeing as I cant update through kies or OTA. Thanks guys. I hope I put this in the right spot and sorry for any duplicate threads in advance. I haven't seen anyone else send out a request yet on this matter.

If it's actually up, it hasn't been uploaded here just yet. That being said, you could backup your stuff and update with http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ (go check if the firmware is out for SGH-747m).

It won't be pre-rooted but you can root after flashing it. Also, Odin is usually needed to flash stock.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
Stock with root injected is good if you don't want to trigger the flash counter incured by using a custom recovery. If it is a zip you will trigger the flash counter. The stock root injected would need to be done with odin or heimdall.

if you just want root then pulled the firmware from sammobile and then just root it.

Someone is bound to put up a rooted stock zip soon. are you rooted now ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Reidicus:
Yes I am. I originally used Odin to to do so. I found someone on here that had the koodo 4.1.1 with root already added.

Send from my awesome stock rooted I-747M from koodo.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Reidicus:
Just to inform you, the flash counter was triggered using root66_KDO_I747MVLDLK4 through odin. It changed from official Samsung to custom and the counter to 1. This allows me to update through kies but not OTA. I want to use OTA so I can keep root. Here is what ive been trying...

Installed Triangle Away and reset the counter to 0 and back to Official Samsung SGH-I747M. I can now go into software update and perform an update. But now instead of saying my phone has been modified, it just does an endless searching for updates. My plan was to use voodoo root keeper but its pointless now if I cant even see that update.

Ohhh well. I can go back to stock and update that way (which I will eventually do) but I absolutely need root as I use my phone for ARliberator, OBD2, and much more.

I will keep searching and hoping I can find a way to update to 4.1.2 to keep root or just be patient and wait for someone to make a stock rooted version I can install through odin or flash recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BWolf56:
It's just as easy to flash the update and then root. There are guides all over the stickies for it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Reidicus:
OK, I went ahead and updated with kies, then used CF autoroot with odin and now im upgraded with root. Now I feel like an idiot.... It seems so simple now and easy to do. I just made a bigger deal out of it than it was. Kept all my existing apps and info on the phone too. But made a backup just in case. You may now close this thread. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] TH35KULL:
Hey, does GS II Skyrocket have only 4G?? I tried looking for using only 3G or at least 2G but I can't find a way... My samsung was originaly from AT&T but I bought it Brand New Unlocked in Amazon... No matter what I try I can't have 3G! It's not that I don't like 4G, but the thing is... There is no 4G in my country!! I'm from Argentina using Claro. I need a quick answer please, everytime I want to use 3G I can't and the fake 4G of Claro takes away all my credit for calling and texting...

ANY help is appreciated!!

I didn't bother with pressing the volume up for Dload mode. I just power it off and it works again.

Ummm, can some 1 explain to me what is this? And how can it be avoided? Thanks

[Nexus 4 General] kingwaffle:
I got the same exact thing on my phone and I have the exact same setup. I'm going to bank on the fact that it's the kernel. the tbm version overclocks the CPU and GPU... CPU to 1.84ghz and the GPU to 600mhz.

I'm going to experiment with the 016m version as opposed to the tbm version and see if it happens again since the mainline version doesn't have OC's.

And to the last guy: Your link is unhelpful. Different phone.

So I have an MT6589 phone from China called the Vowney V5, its a lovely phone but I am having some issues relating to 3G....

I am using it on the UK on the EE network

My problem is that sometimes the phone gets stuck on 'G' or 'E' when I know 3G/H is available. Sometimes the signal also completely dissapears for a few moments and the most annoying of all issues is that sometimes 3G/H is showing as available but apps or browser etc cannot load any content and just say 'Loading'.

Similar problems have been documented on this Nexus 4 thread.....

My phone runs a stock android 4.2.1 build.

Can anyone advise me on how I might be able to fix this? Any help hugely appreciated

This is your problem "26/046/2013 07:46:31 - INFO - Selected Xperia 2011 Range / FreeXperia / ALL"

Download FTF Generic .423 firmware found here : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2332539 (for US) if anywhere else just check the Android Development section and search for your region. After that plug in phone, put the firmware in the firmware directory where Flashtools is installed normally C:/FlashTools/Firmware then drag/drop the FTF file there. Flash once again, good luck.
[Sony Xperia ZL] AndreIrawan97:
So, i already download some FTF file (It's global) it succeed, but, my xperia zl can't turn on.. Am i brick it? And is there anyway to make it unbrick?
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
Did you download the proper drivers for your phone? As well not the 12mb generic one that comes with Flashtools, choose the one that is around 700mb. As well wipe data, cache, and so on.
[Sony Xperia ZL] AndreIrawan97:
Okay, i downloaded the ftf files already... Hope it works !:good:
[Sony Xperia ZL] AndreIrawan97:
****, no sign of life... It doesn't work...
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
Hmm, did you properly put your phone into flash mode? Also be careful in choosing the FTF file pick the right one for your region, then plug in your phone, after pick the firmware that is an actual ROM so it'll be over 700mb cause it includes everything. Unplug your phone once the firmware is prepared and press the OFF button in the back where the sim card and sdcard go in, wait till it vibrates 3 times and hold volume down, bam your phone should be in flash mode. Now begin the flashing process and do not touch your phone or unplug while flashing. Trust me, I was in your place not too long ago when I first got my Xperia keep trying and learning from the forums. Make sure you note any mistakes.

As well be sure you have the latest flash tools located here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2335555
[Sony Xperia ZL] AndreIrawan97:
The tiny button is not working... i already hold it about 45 seconds...
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
Hardware damage then nothing you can do but return it, unless it worked perfectly before.
[Sony Xperia ZL] AndreIrawan97:
It work before, but i don't know, it's not work anymore
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
Make sure your flashing properly send us your log when you try again, the off button on the back must be pushed in with a tiny object it should vibrate once after 3 seconds and 3 times after 5 seconds. As well if your phone sits dead after pushing that button then there's hardware damage, unless flash tools recognizes it also make sure you have all the drivers for your ZL in all modes. Drivers are located in C:/flashtools/drivers install SOE-blahblah, adb, and fastboot(these are mainly at the bottom of the list)
[Sony Xperia ZL] AndreIrawan97:
Do u see the image?

**EDIT**

Now, it's installed... So, did i must turn the usb debugging on to flash ?
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
Now that those 3 drivers are all installed flashtools should recognize your Xperia in flash mode, try using the OFF button for 5 seconds and then hold volume down with the USB cable plugged in the phone and computer. Continue with normal flashing, choose the generic firmware that shows system, kernel, etc in the FTF you should see a ton of .sin packages which is your phones firmware. Flash your phone and just be patient, once done Flashtools will say "flash completed please disconnect your phone" once you do that your phone should boot.
[Sony Xperia ZL] xpc21:
Just an observation or a tip.....open on back the sim/sd tray and should be a "off" button there....click on it and try again put him in flash mode,try this a few times until pc recognizes.
[Sony Xperia ZL] AndreIrawan97:
So, i already flash the ROM for about 12 times... And repair and update via SUS and PC Companion for about 7 times... Still no sign of life... But my xperia now only show red LED blinking 3 times... If i charge it, it's stuck on bootstall...

NOTE

Tiny off button on near the sim card is not working anymore
[Sony Xperia ZL] alainmona:
Hardware damage then, nothing you can do about it but return it :\ unless someone else has a solution.
[Sony Xperia ZL] AndreIrawan97:
So, is hardware damage is related to "can't turn on the device and only shows blinking red LED, also if i charge it, it stuck on bootstall?"

If yes, can i return it ? Even if i already unlock and relock the bootloader?
[Sony Xperia ZL] accts:
As previous mention phone (sony) covered for a year, so you can send in to get a new one (refurbished most case).

I recently pickup a new way to flash phone back to stock, so if you want give it a last shot:

1. Phone Off (make sure phone batery is at least more than 10%, otherwise don't have enough power for flashing process, ignore the 50% req'd).

2. Run your PCC, hit support and then repair - follow the steps, it should ran by itshelf.

3. PCC will ask you to hold vol.down+plugin usb.. do it. It should say downloading ... and when done, your phone now should be back to stock.

Good luck - hope it works for you.
[Sony Xperia ZL] AndreIrawan97:
I don't even know the battery level.....

I already try it.... No sign of life
[Sony Xperia ZL] accts:
Even only plugin to usb at the end ? I guess your only option is send in for service/exchange.
[Sony Xperia ZL] AndreIrawan97:
I didn't try to press the reset button while charging

**EDIT**

My Xperia is vibrating 3 times, what should i do now? Repair it?

Normally I wouldn't say this, but complain about it to the dev. Complain about it not working and complain about the cost. The game should NOT cost any more than the Play store unless it has more content or better graphics, which I bet it doesn't.

[One (M7) General] Bhavpreet:
So i finally dropped my phone today, i was lucky, barely had any marks besides one scuff in the top left corner. Its a small mark, and basically it has the same texture as the polished bezel around the phone.

It got me thinking, that theres alot of people that probably dont have cases for their HTC One (with good reason), and they might come across a day where it were to accidentally fall, and probably leave a decent mark on the corners or the back of the phone.

So this thread is to give any suggestions, ideas, or thoughts on how to remove these marks. I know its an aluminum body, and itll be hard to erase marks caused by impact, but theres still going to be ways to remove marks or atleast reduce them considerably.

Ill get started with one suggestion, using sandpaper to clean the bezel around the phone. Its been done on the iphone 5, to remove the scuffs that appear on the bezel. Sandpaper can be used to remove those marks and leave a shiny texture on the bezel, which is already the case for the One, so this could be useful.

Video for cleaning the phone with sandpaper: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=g92_17ZtH9Y

Leave your suggestions!
[One (M7) General] randykzc:
i dropped my One too and got a scuff on the bezel..no dented luckily.. i tried to use the Radtech Bezel Blaster and tried to sand off that scuff..

i think it makes the bezel area less shiny/metallic..so i just leave it in the end..what are your thoughts? have you tried anything?
[One (M7) General] Riyal:
Proceed with that and just apply a coating in it after. There's alot of liquid coating products online to solve that issue + it protects the phone.
[One (M7) General] AllAboutTheCore:
It's a £500 phone, you don't want to use a case to protect it but you're happy to use sandpaper on it lol ... I know it's a nice phone aesthetically but I don't want to mark, scratch or dent my One so I use an ultra clear hard case that adds no bulk to the phone but protects it. I appreciate that sometimes s*it happens and you drop/knock your phone but I know for a fact that if that ever happened to my phone I certainly wouldn't be sanding it down or applying "liquid coatings" lol

T-Cut is very good for removing scratches from metal but it does dull the finish a little and I can't vouch for it on a phone as I'd rather live with the scuffs 'N' scrapes.
[One (M7) General] AllAboutTheCore:
WTF does an app have to do with removing scratches from a phone :confused: .. You've made 9 posts and every one is the same, none of which are relevant to the topic ... You should be chained and beaten for spamming !!!
[One (M7) General] osmosizzz:
Coming from the Oppo Find 5, this phone is very slim and feels great. I have thoughts about keeping it without a case and just rocking it like that, specially since it's made of aluminium. But I have seen too many bare iPhone 5s without cases that are all chipped up so I went for a nice looking cade that preserved some of the phone beauty while still protecting it, the poetic atmosphere grey clear. Now back to topic, no idea how to remove the scratch besides putting a case on it to hide it
[One (M7) General] nudr01d:
I've the silver One, considered a case but I don't generally like using them. Ruining the looks and feel of the handset ... especially one as nice as the One :victory:

I've had no drops yet, though have thought about using Mantis scratch removal pens, or something similar.

They sold in The Range, JML, shops like that for a few quid.

They aimed at scratches is cars, light scratches to the bodywork.

Thinking they might work their magic on the aluminum shell of the One too?

I've also thought about the thin white bezel that runs around the One, I think this will eventually get dirty and dull grey looking.

Not sure what would be best for cleaning that up

---------- Post added at 12:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------

... If I was to get a case, I quite like the look of this Poetic Atmosphere one, or the Supcase Premium Hybrid case.

How's the IR work though when using the TV Remote app on your Atmosphere?

Still work well?

Looking at some pics of it I see it has a cover over the power button/IR ... I can't lose my IR powers
[One (M7) General] Bhavpreet:
be careful with the white bezel, it stains really easily. if you were to clean it (which i dont suggest unless its REALLY dirty), use a micro fiber cloth with some rubbing alcohol or those magic erasers, both work really well. But be careful not to get anything on the beats logo, i cleaned my phone yesterday and the logo started fading, it was really annoying and i eventually took it off with nailpolish remover, i liked the logo, but it looks fine with it gone aswell.

Back on topic, ye the mark i got from dropping the phone left a polished scratch that looks just like the bezel, a pics attached, anyone know how to make that return to the original matte texture? Its a really small scratch so im hoping a little fixing could get rid of it.

The pic makes it look like the mark is black, but its really not, its shiny just like the bezel of the phone.
