Well if you consider the Daily Sport claiming Hitler was alive and well and living on the moon......you get the picture ;)

And yes, they have a substantial fan base.......alright, it's not as big as the number of people that fall over laughing at the twisted, racist, misogynistic outlook of those fans, but I guess there are enough to support its daily production..........sadly :D

Reporting properly is irrelevant, selling advertising is the only thing that matters.

They have no accountability because they hold so much power. Recently there was a huge scandal when it was discovered that journalists had been breaking the law by hacking peoples voicemail to get stories; this had some shocking consequences and our parliament commissioned an independent report, the Levison Enquiry, on how the press could be prevented from acting in this way again. Upon publication of this report, Rupert Murdoch pressured our Prime Minister in to basically ignoring ALL the recommendations in it, and the press continue to just make stuff up to sell papers or to undermine people they dislike, usually for money or commercial gain. Disgusting as it is, we the people can have no control over it because they hold all the power.

You are correct, they do have a lot of readers. They buy it because of the righteous indignation they feel when they read the printed nonsense.

What country are you from?

Hello Hackers!

I know enough about shell scripts and networking that I was able to create a script that connects to a WiFi network from your remembered networks and enables NAT from hosts on the WiFi network to the 4G LTE data connection.

All you have to do after it's ready is either change the gateway on any PC on the network to the IP address of your phone or add a static route for a specific destination to route to your phone's IP address.

This script requires root access and a way to run shell scripts. I use the SManager app to run it, you just have to make sure it's set to run as root.

If you have a data connection other than 4G LTE then I expect it will most likely have a different interface, you will have to use OS Monitor to see which interface it uses then modify this script to use that interface.

There are a couple issues that I have with it. One is sometimes I have to run it a couple times before DHCP will work and the other issue is the WiFi seems to lag badly causing the internet to perform much slower than it should. Can someone have a look please?

If you make changes to the script then make sure you convert it to UNIX format or SH won't read it correctly. If you have Linux on your PC you can use the command "fromdos" to convert it.

I have attached a zip file with both the on and off scripts below. If anyone has more experience than I and would like to improve it then please let me know and I will include the improvements. :highfive:

Thank you!

Hello,

Looking for the most stable AOSP Jellybean ROM.

Recently have been having trouble with everything - Tasks AOKP, Cyanogen Mod 10.1, you name it.

My issues are mostly front facing camera not working in 3rd party apps (instagram)(causing a restart) and MMS not working (Fido - have correct APNs).

I just need something that works - that is not TW.

Suggestions.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mkfryan:
As far as mms goes are you using adblocker? If so that's why it blocks the port mms uses.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rvash:
Im using ad-away. Going to try to see if that's the problem! Thanks dude!

AOSP ffc prob

This problem seems to be pretty prevalent with all AOSP ROMs. I don't know why some people have the problem and others don't. I just recently found it when I tried to use the front facing camera on Focal (same prob as instagram). Haven't really found any real answers here. Don't know if I'm just looking in the wrong forums or what. I'll try and let you know if I find something.

Hi!

HELP Me please!

I was using my I8150 phone with it's default ROM and rooted and search for swapon function not implemened error I see dev folder files to config it BUT "when click to open kmem file in RB text editor my phone shut downed an then no reaction to any button pressing"

HELP Me PLEASE!

:crying:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] miladramin:
HELP!

Please help me!

Please!

My phone like a Corpse!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] thearif:
It maybe a corpse we don't know it yet. If it is a hard brick, I don't think we can do much. But if it is a soft brick than there maybe some life left in your phone.

My question is can you boot into recovery or download mode? If yes, then you are in luck. You can still revive your phone. I assume you know how to enter these since you are confident enough to mess with swap.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] miladramin:
thanks for your answer!

when pressing power button or power+up+home button no changes in my phone!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] thearif:
What about power-down-home? I believe this gets you in download mode.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] miladramin:
nothing!

Yet my phone screen is black!

I explore that when connect phone to my laptop without battery in windows 8 it alarming and when insert battery it adding:

"Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM9)"

in "Devices and Printers"!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] thearif:
Below are the possibilities that comes to my mind..

1-) your screen is dead...

2-) your battery is dead...

3-) you really hard bricked your phone...

All points to hardware failure. You may try to identify which. Maybe someone else have some ideas to help you.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] miladramin:
Thanks!

1-) my phone really shutdowned and I sense that my screen is ok

2-) how can I test it?

3-) if hard bricked flashing with Jtag can return my phone's life?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] thearif:
OK let me see what happens when I connect my phone to the PC while it is off to see if I get the same message as you do. Maybe this will be a useful info for someone who has more knowledge than I do.

If it is the screen problem, maybe when you turn it on, vibrations and sound should work. Turn it on, wait a while and hit the volume keys to see if you get any sound at all..Of course make sure that your battery is charged. Or you can try to call yourself. But I don't know whether the soft key lights are connected to screen or not. As I understand they don't do anything either.

Last question, what happens when you hit the power button when the phone is off and connected to the charger. Do you see battery icon on the screen?

One other possibility I forgot last time is that maybe your power button is at fault here. Try pushing it really hard to see if that works..

Some bad info for you, I heard that some cases dealing with swap partition on our phone may lead to hardbricks....
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] miladramin:
Thanks for your continuous answering!

no battery icon see!

my power key click sound say it work healthy

please pay attention to my 1st message: when I open /dev/kmem in root browser editor my phone turned off and maybe maybe my hand heat and humidity cause this problem!!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] thearif:
Do you have a friend who has a galaxy w? Can you ask someone to try to turn on your phone with their battery?

I don't think a phone would turn itself off by simply viewing a file. Food you change anything in there?

Also your body heat or humidity would not harm a phone unless we are talking actual water damage.
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] miladramin:
No, I have nobody! :(

Only I want to open kmem as text in root browser and WONDERfully turned my phone OFF!
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] iDelta:
Your puns are bad. Anyway, I don't think changing the battery can do anything. It seems to be a system problem. Worst case scenario, its bricked and you have to go to SSC acting dumb.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kyleallen5000:
Okay so obviously to use any of the AOSP Roms with the 3.4 kernel, you have to s-off then RUU, ect.. ect...ect...

I'm on vanilla root-box 6/11 right now and it just refuses to keep apps in memory. I don't have time to really try a new ROM or learn how to s-off and stuff ATM. I plan to sometime next week., but in the mean time, I was wondering if I flash a ROM that uses the 3.4 kernel and then immediately flash a different kernel before even booting. Would that get me past the previous requirements?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RollTribe:
Nope, you'll probably brick doing that.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
You can't flash a different kernel because those ROMs require the 3.4 kernel. There are a few lucky individuals that have been able to flash the newer 3.4 ROMs without going through the s-off & RUU process but that is definitely not the norm. You could try it but you will probably end up in a boot loop just like I did. I was already s-off so I just had to run the RUU. But even doing the whole process isn't a very time consuming ordeal. I did the whole process on a friend's phone yesterday and it took around 30 minutes and was very easy.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kyleallen5000:
Yeah i figured it was a long shot, glad i asked first lol. Thanks dude!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] kyleallen5000:
Oh I'm sure it's not to bad, but I have no idea how to use fastboot or adb (I've lucked by without having to use either, at least to my knowledge). Plus I don't readily have a windows PC, I just want make sure I know what I'm doing before I even attempt it. I've been looking over gunnyman's adb for noobs (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1754018), I'll give it a shot sometime next week when I've worked up the courage. Thanks for the advice!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
3.4 kernel requires only 3.18/2.14 hboot.

If you already meet those requirements there is no need to RUU to 3.18

If you don't need to RUU to 3.18, you don't need to S-OFF.

It's really just that simple.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
I meant there are people who have gotten it to work on an older hboot. Also, you can't just update your hboot without doing the ruu. There's something else in the update that it requires. So if you were s-off and just updated your hboot to 2.14 like I tried, the 3.4 kernel ROMs still won't flash correctly. I had an 2.14 hboot and still had to run the ruu.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Yes, you require all the files in the firmware zip. It's not so much the hboot that matters hence why I put 3.18 software/2.14 hboot.

The people who managed to do it with lower hboot did the 3.18 update at some point and then downgraded just the hboot using the modded hboot file.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
Not trying to start an argument or anything but, I have seen and responded to users that have gotten a 3.4 kernel ROM to boot on an older hboot without ever having done the 3.18 update. It's definitely not the norm and I wouldn't even recommend trying it but there are a few people that have done it successfully.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] 31ken31:
The ones I've seen pull that off had run the 3.18 ruu then downgraded the hboot. If it was that simple I doubt the the Rom would say it was required. And even if it was pulled of it was done by not following directions. Noobs with this phone that don't know how quirky it is can brick it. So I recommend following the steps the Rom calls for. There are more bricks from people skipping steps or not following directions
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
I'm not saying it's that simple and yes, I agree about following the steps. That's why I said I wouldn't even recommend trying the newer ROMs without updating first. I have seen it work though. That's all I'm saying. Maybe those users were ignorant on exactly what they did but I'm just going on what I've read and responded to.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Same ken. I have not seen anyone manage without having 3.18 at some point and I chill on here and in facepalm quite often. In fact, I don't even have a physical body. I am just a conciousness who lives within a hoxl. :P j/k

Pside if you say you've seen it, that's cool. But it is true that I live on these forums and find it odd that I have not encountered that situation yet.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pside15:
Go to my profile and look at my quoted posts or just go back a bit in the Carbon thread. You will see where I quoted someone who was s-on and on the 1.14 hboot that flashed one of the 3.4 nightlies successfully. He was wondering if his phone was going to mess up now. That's the only specific one I remember off the top of my head but I know I've seen others as well. Like I said I'm just going by what I read. They could be completely wrong, lying, or just ignorant noobs. I live on these forums as well and have absolutely no reason to make something like this up.

Hello all,

I've just recently purchased GS4 i9500 and am loving it!

The issue I'm facing is related to Samsung TouchWiz rather than Go Contacts / Go Dialer EX itself. Pressing on Missed Call notification from notification panel takes me directly to Samsung Dialer instead of Go Dialer. By default, it should at first ask me what application to launch. Is there any way to open Go Dialer EX when clicking on Missed Call notification? I've tried clearing defaults from Phone application but didn't help.
