That is because 4.3 google edition rom is a test rom that was leaked.

I have a at&t galaxy s4 that I flashed foxhound rom for i9505. Which I have to say so far is an awesome rom. But does anyone know how to install the mods and add ons under the foxhound settings? It asks if you want to download and after I do it says reboot recovery and you can see the download as a zip file. But when I flash the zip it doesn't do anything. Any help would be appreciated.

I've been getting really bad mobile data on CM 10.1.0 (Stable) not getting 4G where there is 4G on Touchwiz. I was thinking about trying new Kernels, are there any that would help? Or is there something I should do to get better results. I'm new to all of this.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Kernels, ROMs, apps, etc. have nothing to do with mobile data. It either works well or it doesn't.

You can try flashing different modems to see if that will help.

LTE doesn't work as well on 4.2 AOSP ROMs as it does on TW. It's weird and I'm not exactly sure why, but I've done a lot of testing. LTE on 4.1 AOSP ROMs work just as well as TW though.

Welcome to moonshine s-off for the HTC One SV . Developed by Fuses, beaups, and Hyuh. Enjoy.

1.) make sure htc sync is uninstalled

2.) make sure adb and fastboot drivers are working

3.) make sure htc sync is uninstalled

4.) if you are having problems with fastboot, try a usb 2.0 port.

5.) make sure htc sync is uninstalled

6.) make sure other programs that interfere with adb and fastboot are uninstalled (PDANet, Kies, etc.)

7.) make sure htc sync is uninstalled

8.) if you use a third party firewall, be sure to grant access to distiller.exe as it checks for updates

9.) MAKE SURE HTC SYNC IS UNINSTALLED

10.) YOU MUST UNZIP THE ARCHIVE BEFORE RUNNING DISTILLER. DO NOT JUST TRY TO RUN IT FROM THE ARCHIVE.

I guess it's only for ICS, isn't it? :(
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
No, jelly bean (only for boost mobile is ics).

You have to look at the Software Number.

For ics you can use Supercid and Facepalm S-off (except boost mobile).
[HTC One SV] simonsickle:
All devices now supported

Boost (k2_cl) cricket (k2_plc_cl) gsm lte(k2_ul) and gsm only (k2_u)

All one Sv users can install this, it only takes five minutes. Boost mobile is still in testing, but it fully works.

Thanks beaups and fuses. Without them this wouldn't be possible at all.

Install custom roms

Hi, is there a change that something can go wrong using this method? Because I have used it after htc dev-unlock an rooting, and have S-off, but my phone doesn't install a custom rom. I understand that you have to be S-off to be able to install custom roms, right?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
If you see, that you are S-Off, you should be S-Off, i think.

And you don't need to be S-Off to flash custom Roms, you also can flash with S-On, but you need to flash boot.img with fastboot then.

As i have seen your phone info, you have hboot 2, that means you had already jb installed. So why do you want to use the stock, odexed rom instead?
[HTC One SV] Smellie2:
I want that because my phone acts weird. It doesn't remember whether I want to use my launcher or Sense, if I put a widget on my homescreen the next day there's a grey area where the widget was, etc. So I thought if I can install a stable rom that might be over.
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Have you tried to do a factory reset?

Sounds a little bit like a default (with data partition).
[HTC One SV] Smellie2:
No, I haven't done that. I can with a guide root my phone and tablet, but I don't know what happens when I do something like that. Do I have to get rooted then again, or doesn't that change all that stuff like rooting and unlocking?
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
It doesn't change unlocking or S-Off. It deletes all user data, all you brought to your phone (not external sd, internal sd i'm not sure), but not things in system.

It sets the software itself to the point where the phone came to you.
[HTC One SV] wetbiker7:
Worked perfect!! Nice job. :D

You are already on JB, so there is no real profit for you, cause mine is not modded.

Hi.

Quick question, I'm trying to help someone back in France with this.

If you're on JB (official OTA update) and do this procedure, will you :

- keep your data as they were just before ?

- keep your rom as it was before (ie : will you be able to install the next OTA updates without any trouble) ?

In one word : does this process just does S-OFF or does it change anything else ?

Thanks a lot !

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] funbulton:
Hello everyone,

First off, my phone is running jedi mind trick jb 6. However when I shut it down and started the phone again, it started boot looping, which was weird because i restarted the phone in the morning with no problem. When I entered cwm (version 6.0.2.7), I backed up my phone with the backup and restore option. Then I wiped the phone with darkside super wipe. I flashed jmt jb 6 once again. Then I restored my backup through backup and restore/restore from internal sd card. But it continued to boot loop and when I went in to cwm it displayed the errors E:failed to mount exfat/dev/block/mmcblk1/sdcard and E:failed to mount exfat/dev/block/mmcblk1p1/sdcard. Sometimes I can enter cwm and when I do, I can't flash anything even though it show the folders and items in my internal sd card. I also can't factory reset my phone because it gets stuck when formatting cache. I think this has something to do with restoring the backup because cwm stopped working right after that. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] meekrawb:
You can't use darkside super wipe with CWM6. Odin flash a recovery tar. And get rid of that darkside stuff.

TWRP 2.5.0.0 tar can be found here:

The CWM6 tar can be found in one of the CWM threads in development.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ker0zene:
The current answer is no. This is because the Google Edition is based of the i9505 hardware. The only 'Google Edition' ROM contains proprietary drivers, libraries, etc that are specific to i9505 hardware.

[HTC Droid DNA] soundofcarnage:
So, i was in recovery to restore to a previous backup. I was wiping my system to prevent errors but unfortunately i wiped EVERYTHING, including the backup and the OS. So, i kept it in recovery till i got home hoping to just mount my storage and transfer a ROM over and ten install..sounds easy enough. However, i plug my phone in and click mount storage and it doesn't mount with twrp, or even clock work mod.

Soo....i have no OS, can't mount my storage..and i'm stuck.

Can i flash a ROM through command line? If so, how? And why isin't my Droid DNA mounting?

Wttttfff help asap please!

Aaannd...now i'm stuck in the boot screen and it won't turn off.
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
Just use either adb push or adb sideload
[HTC Droid DNA] soundofcarnage:
Nice! forgot about those commands, however it's telling me that adb is not a recognized command. I've forgotten how to fix that? Can you help with that?
[HTC Droid DNA] soundofcarnage:
Adb sideload starts up and says daemon not running, then start's it succesfully. then says device not found. I'm pretty sure i don't have the right drivers for my DNA, can you point me in the right direction for that?
[HTC Droid DNA] soundofcarnage:
I really need help, i don't think i can even turn on usb debugging because i have no OS to boot into.
[HTC Droid DNA] soundofcarnage:
FIXED. I got this ;)
[HTC Droid DNA] IceAzures:
What steps did you take?
[HTC Droid DNA] soundofcarnage:
I looked a little more into ad sideload. I sideloaded a zip of the Rom I wanted and then chose to flash through sideload.

You pretty much:

Download your rom and put it into your fasboot directory oin your.

Boot into recovery and choose "install" then "install zip from sideload"

It should say to now type into command promt "adb sideload romfilrname"

It then loads it, and you just hit flash after it loads.
[HTC Droid DNA] IceAzures:
with no o/s and im pretty much on the same boat, how did you get adb to read your device? when i type in adb devices it gives me a blank list of devices
[HTC Droid DNA] soundofcarnage:
It worked for without ever actually listing my device.
[HTC Droid DNA] IceAzures:
Oh okay, this is basically my last step. Im stuck on cannot read sideload. is it because of the romfilename? or am i missing something.
[HTC Droid DNA] rsims26:
Are you adding .zip after filename?
[HTC Droid DNA] IceAzures:
no ill try that
[HTC Droid DNA] Bigandrewgold:
That's kinda necessary.
[HTC Droid DNA] IceAzures:
Sorry if i am making things complicated. I havent done adb since January to unlock bootloader and install custom recovery
[HTC Droid DNA] beaups:
you have old adb

just adb push it and then flash in recovery

adb push some_damn_rom.zip /sdcard/
[HTC Droid DNA] IceAzures:
The longer this happens the more i feel like an idiot. I can't push anything either. Where in sdk is a new adb and how much more will it help?
[HTC Droid DNA] beaups:
hmm thought I replied.

from this link ( http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=RIL )

I see that ril.h ( http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/ril.h ) was created from the information gleaned by analyzing the patent application linked to from that page.

"... At the European Patent Office, a patent application was discovered. In this application a detailed description of the RIL API was found. The description is detailed enough to create a working API from. ..."

does this mean that the ril.h available here ( http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/ril.h ) has the same function prototypes as the RIL API in MS Windows Mobile Edition 2003 ?

I don't have a phone to test with or I would try myself.

Can I create an app that calls these functions ( like tsril.exe ) and it will work for an off the shelf Microsoft smartphone as opposed to a HTC phone?

apologies if my language is incorrect as I am new to HTC phones, xda-dev, and smartphones in general.

any relevant information is greatly appreciated

Hi everyone. I don't know if everyone has heard the news, but Oppo is coming out with a new phone called the Oppo Find 7 and there is also going to be a new Nexus handset out. I will soon be getting a unlocked phone and I am going to go with the T-Mobile $30 a month plan which includes 100 minutes of Talk, Unlimited Text, and 5GB of 4G DATA.

Now I know I explained alot of stuff that I didn't really have to explain but anyways, let me get to the real explanation. You know how, based on your launcher or lockscreen, it shows you how many miss calls or voicemails you have. Well since I will be using Google Voice and be using an app called GrooveIP or maybe Talkatone, will I get those notifications. They are in your notification bar too. I really want those notifications. Even if I use Google Voice, will it give me those notifications?

Goto the development forum and read the "Stock Firmware Odin" thread.

Then, go to each of the AT&T S4 subforums and read the pinned (stickied) threads in each of them. Pay close attention to the information about T-Mobile ROMS. There should be links in there about threads that will help you understand flashing T-Mobile ROMs onto the I337.

[General Questions and Answers] paulschofield76:
I'm curious as to what advantages / disadvantages I'd get from a custom rom.

I have Googled this many times and spent many hours reading up on it but still can't see the point.

Updates - I know there'd be more frequent updates, but there'd also be more frequent bugs. I seem to read a lot that certain things (even big things like the camera) won't work on some popular handsets.

Features - If I want some specific feature, I'm sure I could find an app for it.

Themes - I've always run a third party launcher and they're easy to find new themes for.

Performance / battery life - This is the only benefit I can see to a custom rom, although some battery saving aspects could be achieved on a stock rom (I mean by being smart, not by using Juice Defender or some equivalent.

Am I totally wrong in my thinking?
[General Questions and Answers] sspencer10:
Just depends on what you want. I can say there are stable custom roms for most devices, so they should be any more buggy than stock. And you won't find some features of custom roms in the play store.
[General Questions and Answers] Keion:
"Features - If I want some specific feature, I'm sure I could find an app for it."

Top lel (you couldn't, for many things)

"Themes - I've always run a third party launcher and they're easy to find new themes for. "

Double top lel (you're not themeing your system - install xposed)

Anyways, PA is really useful for testing multiple layouts (phone, phablet, tablet, etc), if you're a developer.
[General Questions and Answers] cerealfreak:
One of the best and biggest features of running a custom ROM is getting the latest version of Android that could take months and months to be released on your handset by your carrier, if at all.

The next thing is the removal of bloatware that some versions come with and that is added on by your service provider. Baby you get better freedom and up to date software.
[General Questions and Answers] Sanjay:
Ur device will be having few extra features which are suppressed in stock rom.But when we use custom rom they are exhibited out.

[Motorola Droid 3] XDADoog:
For just one post that a lot a stuff :P well anyways, one problem I see is that on the XT860 rom it doesn´t read the SIM ID but on the XT862 it does. Since in my stupidity something tells me that that maybe related to the fact that is not reading the sim properly, I guess I will go into that route to find out what´s happening.

Just a quick update for ya.
[Motorola Droid 3] Jimmy8881:
I was wondering if this is possible too, I know there is a line in the build prop that sets gsm to default, but it seems that my droid 3 will change that setting once in a while.
[Motorola Droid 3] 5318008:
I, too, would like a permanent fix for this.
[Motorola Droid 3] Skreelink:
I do not use Minimoto, but I do use the XT883 radio. I have zero idea how I did it, but my Stock rom (I use SS) does NOT have the network choice. I assume this is what you were aiming for. It only shows the GSM options (2g/3g/auto toggle, Operator select, and APNs menu) and nothing for CDMA. Effectively making my Stock rom GSM only like the XT860. SIM reads fine, calls/text/data all work, no invalid SIM reading anywhere.

I've attached a couple screenshots to showcase this (if it's what you want) and my modified build.prop (incase this is actually what caused it). I've no idea what I've done to the build.prop, I've gone through and randomly changed things in my adventure of doing GSM tweaks, and I mainly use Maverick so my main modifications (that I remember) are there. Use at your own risk, though I doubt it'll do any harm (remove the .txt from the end and make sure you have proper permissions). Remember to backup your originals. :)
[Motorola Droid 3] Beta_Burst:
Interestingly enough im having the opposite problem on my XT862. I flashed Minimoto 1.7 to it and I get the "Invalid SIM, 911 calls only" message. Which is weird since my phone works off of CDMA. Anyone else have a clue to remedy this?
[Motorola Droid 3] 5318008:
I tried your build.prop on the stock ROM with the xt883 radio, but after setting permissions and rebooting, I still have the CDMA network options present, plus the occasional "switch to global" prompt.

--posted from my phone
[Motorola Droid 3] every1nosme:
I have the 862 with the 883 radio and occasionally my phone will lose the cdma/global options entirely but then after a reboot they willl randomly reappear. The first time this happened I thought it was great lol cuz I don't need them anyways but then the box that normally pops up if you lose gsm signal asking you to switch to global popped up but said "no cdma signal detected, switching to gsm/umts mode" which is exactly the opposite of what it normally says. Kinda weird and I have no idea what would cause it since I'm using the build.prop found in the diy thread with no other changes that I would assume many others are using.
