Try to rename the folder and remove the dot.

Not connected to your problem, but found the uninstalling and re-installing whatsapp fixed it - might also help you.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tj gamino:
I'm new to the S3 and I have rooted a few devices previously. I just got my S3 yesterday. I rooted it with no issue. Installed a custom recovery with no issue and even installed a custom ROM (wicked v10) with no issue other than ,once the ROM booted up I had no data. I did some searching and found a firmware/modem zip that I thought might fix my issue. It said that it will only install on a T999 T-Mobile version of the S3. Good, so I install it. Well I have a T-Mobile S3 but mine is a T999L. Now my phone does nothing. Will not start will not boot into safe mode. Doesn't even have a LED when on the charger. Somebody please please help.. Thanks in advance
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Pretty sure you just hard bricked it. Sorry man, I know that sucks. But if you can't get any response from the device.....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tj gamino:
So do you think I can return it to where I got it and tell them it just stopped responding and get another one without any issues?. I just bought it yesterday at my local wal mart..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Blackwolf10:
depends if they take returns

they can't know what's wrong since it won't run at all

so give it a try act like you don't know anything about phones and say i was just charging it :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tj gamino:
Update: I was able to return the bricked phone and get another phone. Lady tried to say I might have "over charged" the phone. I just shook my head and said wow! I never heard of that before.. Good to be back:)

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuyDroid:
I was updating to latest version of cyanogenmod through OTA and after that my phones battery just died I mean it showed 1 percent and even though I charged it, it still was running off the battery and no matter how long I charged it it just didn't boot up

I can load download mode\ recovery but I installed through odin a stock rom and still it boots up and says I have no battery and turns off even if it connected to the original samsung charger, and I can't just turn it on like with the power button I need to load recovery and then reboot.

please help me i'm really frustrated
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackwolf10:
borrow a battery and test it
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuyDroid:
Do you think that a battery can die just like that with no reason?

I think its a software problem and not a technical one.

does anyone have another solution?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AjunNg:
You have good reasons to believe it's a software thing, yet you also don't.

Focus on what you are able to do at the moment.

Since your phone is just a brick now, no matter what your suspicions are, you need to test it with another battery and eliminate possibilities.

Either the rom you flashed bricked your phone, or the battery just decided to call it a life. Either way, you need a battery to test whether it did actually die, or to determine whether it's a true software issue.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rosli59564:
Yup it could happen(at least to me). My battery can last 10hours then suddenly when I woke up in a morning my phone dead. Use charger while power on only last to samsung screen.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisgil:
I've noticed that I seem to be missing a few updates that I expected I'd be one of the first in line for as a Nexus 4 owner.

Firstly, the Master Key vulnerability fix doesn't seem to have reached my phone. At least, according to Bluebox security scanner

Secondly, I still have no visibility of the new Google Maps redesign

My phone is a generic operator free Nexus 4 running stock (custom kernel though). Anybody else still waiting, or have I fallen off the automatic updates conveyor belt so far?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisgil:
Based in the UK. If you've had the vulnerability patch already, did it come in the form of an app download or an ota update?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kien:
I'm in the UK and had the Maps update the day it was released.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kzoodroid:
Google hasn't released a patch for the vulnerability that's why you haven't gotten it. All they have done so far is release the code to their OEM's so they can patch their individual versions of Android. More than likely Nexus devices will get the patch in the 4.2.3 OTA whenever it gets released. In teh mean time their is an app in the Playstore, ReKey, that will address the vulnerability. Or you could just turn off install apps from unknown sources in the security settings which will also take care of the issue temporarily.

As for the other app updates they can take up to 2 weeks to deploy to all phones.

Stupid question maybe...how come your rom is 1.2gb, but the CM rom is 156mb?

*I realize the stock rom is also 1+ gb, just curious how the other rom is able to be so much smaller
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] CCallahan:
CM has always been and probably will always be smaller than most roms. Just different code (built from ground up) and not using the 4.2.2 TW leak as a base. This rom does use it as a base so the size will reflect that. Other thing that might have a small effect on size is the amount of packaged apps in each rom.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] abax44:
Makes sense. :thumbup:
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] danyvw:
Installed. Working flawlessly, the only problem I found is that 5GHz network recognition is not working again. Thanks [MENTION=3986004]civato[/MENTION].
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] wase4711:
CM roms, and ALL AOSP roms are very much smaller than the TW roms; there is no TW bloat, no samsung bloat, nothing except what is needed to make your device do all the basic things...thats why AOSP roms are also much faster, and more nimble that TW roms...

So, you have to decide if the trade off of speed, fast, and agile is worth losing all the Samsung/TW bloat/apps that you get with a TW rom...

Remember, things like S-pen, readers hub, and every other Samsung app probably won't work right, or work at all on any AOSP rom..
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] guildamx:
We are slowly drifting OT. I would just add that if someone bought the Samsung Note 8.0 and is now seeking an AOSP rom, probably he made the wrong choice and should have bought a Nexus 7.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
Look in OP for terminal commands.

In your case it is su(enter)tabletwindow(enter)

And yep that is a good app

With tablet window mode you have floating windows

change size of the windows with holding right bottom corner

you can also use the same layout as the phabletwindow = drag the floating window to the top so it expands to the whole window, now open an new app in floatingwindow and do the same with it.

Drap it to the top so it expands, you will see what I mean.

I just did it!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] skawtnyc:
I attempted this, and unfortunately the system would allow me to copy about 1.5gb of data before the card stopped accepting any more data. You're still better off doing this on a PC. That being said, I'm sticking with the stock kernel, as I prefer exfat and native mounting of my 64gb usb stick via otg cable.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] hermeticist:
Used 3gb so far but that was from Dropbox. Will be experimenting with copying from my pc this evening.

EDIT

The card was totally borked when copying files via Windows.

This morning I used my Ubuntu terminal to repartition and format FAT32 using gparted.

I am in the process of copying 15gb of music from my GS3's microsd with fast speeds. Should take an hour.

Hopefully this works.

EDIT 2

No go, the card had problems saving more than 4.5gb before corrupting data.

That was 2 class 10 Kingston. Now I'll try SanDisk.

Triangle away vs customized kernel

I installed the ROM and select the customized kernel. Then I found the kernel does not support Triangle away. Is there a solution to fix it?
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] civato:
No , it causes lag and freeze problems. The hack causes this , samsung changed something in the code and really don't have time to figure it out now.

second there is no point in triangle away with custom kernel/rom if it is for warranty.

I suggest if you want that stay with full stock.

If a solution comes without lag and screenfreezes then I will bring it back to custom kernel.

Noticed that the typing digitizer lag is back in 1.3, using the native kernel. Not enough to be a major issue, and once your next ROM package is out with native exfat support, it'll be a moot point.
