[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] double_jn_it:
After using my phone for about 2 hours I stuck it in my pocket for as I was about to go into a meeting. After the meeting I pulled my phone out and it turned on (thought it was strange because I never turned it off) and I began to use it. Stuck it back in my pocket and after a couple minutes I pulled it out again to call someone but the phone was off again! I tried turning it back on and it just keeps going to either the samsung boot logo or when its plugged in it goes to the battery logo. It only stays on either on for no more than 2 seconds. So used my friends phone to test if it was my battery that was broken on his s3. After swapping battery my phone still didn't turn on and with my battery in his phone it booted right up and even was up to 81% battery life!

My phone is rooted and its running just a stock rom from sammobile.

I have no idea what to do. Any suggestions besides calling tmobile? I do not have insurance and I bought it using my uncles contract since he didnt want another phone.

Thank you

Can you get into recovery? While the phone's off hold Volume Up+Home button+Power button and see if it goes into recovery.

Thanks brotha that just verified part of what I was thinking which is that the system apps if not so full would work better. Thing is we could just increase the system partition and not deal with the preload. I always use the preload on my roms. It just made sense that it would work better since it was supposed to be that way, designed that way.(project butter?)

It does take some special send links (symlinks) though thanks again. Right now I have H+ 4bars :/)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Darth:
It seems to me reading through threads that a lot of people are running out of room on their system partitions and can't understand why. So it seems to me that the preload is a good idea.....that, or increasing system partition as you said. Just cooking roms with preload stuff moved onto the system partition seems to be causing people to run outta room quick and they are blaming 4.1.2, when its the rom they are on and how it was compiled. ;)

Preload is the new tombstones, its a partition file of ROM related apps and data, it was created in order to try and free up a little of that 600mb ROM size, its been causing a lot of problems with ppl, some recoveries don't even have the scripts to restore nandroids because of preload

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chanandler:
I am having a weird problem with my S4. It started about a month ago, the phone would not lock onto a satellite when I wanted to use Maps. If I left it on the 'searching for location' eventually it would kick in but only after about 10 minutes.

So I wiped the phone, restored my data and all seems to have been fine for 3 weeks but then it started doing it again last week. This time though, if I turn the GPS off and then back on again, the app that I was trying to use then starts working fine.

Today though I keep getting pop-up messages on the screen, every 10 mins or so, saying "Failed to update My Location - no signal" which I am guessing is to do with Google+.

Again, if I go to the quick settings, turn the GPS off and on again the pop up message goes away for at least a few hours. Anyone got any ideas what could be going wrong?

Can someone please help me..

I want to upgrade to the new ROM 1.11 but I need to backup all of my messages..

I am not sure if using xBackup to backup before upgrading the new ROM then use xBackup to restore is ok or not.. (will this screw up my PPC? because of the old files that might overwrite the new ROM files)

or is there any other way to backup the messages then restore after the upgrade is completed?

Thanks in advance. :wink:

Sprite Backup also backs up messages and call logs. You'll just have to use the advanced method and see to that you only check those things when you restore. It's said that you cannot restore the full backup afterwards.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ControlD:
I have been looking at every "volume control" app on the Play Store trying to find something that will give me more than 15 volume steps from silent to full volume. Those steps are just way too big when using decent headphones. I did find an app called "Fine Volume Control" but honestly it is not well integrated with the OS and it is no longer being developed so it seems like a last resort option at best. Just wondering if anyone has found a solution to this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] tfly212:
Some of the custom kernels have some capabilities to tweak sound. I use the perseus kernel and if you us the STweaks app you can adjust the volume in a lot of different ways. I know the PBJ kernel works with Boeffla sound...that miight also fit your needs.

So my brother is a pharmacist and He thought it would be a great Idea, to give some gifts to his two best buisness partners, and that's why he bought two SG Tab 10.1 ! and that's when I got the idea, to change the boot animation !

And therefore, I'm looking for someone willing to provide me with a custom one that is compatible with the tabs,

Please contact me for further information, I can pay if needed (but it better be a hell of an animation)

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] neswii:
I see now. I thought that ruu stuff was for rooted phones but I believe it's the official updater from HTC. ROM update utility is what it stands for. Saw the video and it is a stock restoring process. Thanks for the responses guys, will restore my phone during the weekend. Hopefully we'll have 4.2.2 by then!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Rirere:
There's nothing from your use-case that a standard factory reset (Settings -> Storage) shouldn't do, though, so do be somewhat wary.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] neswii:
Thing is, I believe some apps may be corrupted when doing incremental updates, or some data may be corrupted or give problems as well. So, a full system restore eliminates this problem. I still get force closes on some stock apps and the browser after a factory reset.

I've considered flashing a custom rom, but I'm just not into tinkling with my devices anymore.

I followed the instructions in the OP to go back to s-on, after the process I rebooted my phone and it took me to the bootloader screen and gave me this warning. I tried to reboot again or enter recovery but i doesn't let me. I believe that's happening because my bootloader was locked? Hope anyone can help because i need to have my ONE fixed. Thanks!

You just need to run an ruu... If your bootloader is locked with s on it can't go anywhere it will stay in bootloader unless

You unlock the bootlaodrr again....

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] makbil:
It's highly unlikely that you can brick your phone since you are s-on. You also seem to be on old firmware so you can either try to flash a RUU from your computer or unlock your device and you should be good.

My friend bought a samsung galaxy s3 i9300 from a thief. After he reached home and checked that phone he come to know that this phone is actually a display phone which is just like a normal i9300 but only cannot be used for GSM purposes becz the imei number of that phone is some thing like 00XXXXXXXXX0000/01 otherwise it works like a charm. i think if only its imei is changed than it can work for GSM purpose. Is there any way to change its imei number with only its data cable. without using any other Z3X like products??

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blazevxi:
Changing the IMEI number is usually, in many countries illegal. Also illegal is buying/handling stolen goods/merchandise
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] R3dF1v3:
Don't expect a lot of help with this here.

Firstly, you mentioned the phone was bought from a thief; I've never had a phone stolen, but I have friends who have, and anybody involved is the lowest of the low.

Secondly, IMEI changing might be legal where you are (I'm not sure which country you're in), but it's highly illegal in many countries, including the one which hosts this site. Helping you do this could get this site an its operators in a lot of trouble.

If your friend thought he was buying a stolen phone, and got scammed with a non-working display model, I'd say he's had a valuable learning opportunity...

Hi!

I flashed my O2 XDA // Wallaby 5.15

to WM2003SE.

The first Boot worked, after that, I wanted to switch the language to german, I had to reboot, and from there on, my problems began....

i read about the possibility to re-flash my os with an sd card.

everytime i plugin that card to my notebook, winxp says, i have to format that card.

after that, i tried to copy the nk.nb1 file to this card, with success...

and then, i plugged in that card back to my xda.... nothing happens...

if i press the "contactlist" button ( in bootloader ), i come to some backup modes, but not to read an new os-image from sd card.....

i'm getting crazy :/

can someone help me plz ??? :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] LumpiStefan:
You have to use xdatools to copy the Image to the sd-Card. It is written in a special format. Copying with the explorer is useless for flashing...

i tried this some times....

but do i have to save "NK.nb1" to sd-card (( h:\nk.nb1 )) or in another format ?? for example sd-card image ( *.img ) or *.nbf .... etc

my last try for this evening....

must go to work in some minutes.. ;(

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] LumpiStefan:
Download http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/tools/XDATools.zip unzip it and run osimagetool.

Select the nb1 or nbf file in source and select your card reader with inserted SD-Card as Destination. Press Copy and wait until process has finished.

Insert the card into your xda. If there comes a message to format the card press no or do directly a softreset wirh power button to enter bootloader. Than the image should be recognized ....

HTH

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] oppaunke:

doesn't work....

what have i done ? *omg*

if i want to write an image to my sd card, my winxp wants me to format it....

if i do this, the writing works fine, but my xda doesnt recognize the new nb1....

i get no connection to my pc with the cradle ( but there is something being found in windows while my xda is in bootloader mode.... )

hi.

i've read something about problems with winXP, if you want to write a new os to sd card... is that true?

my pc - sd - card - reader/writer cannot write the file in that way my xda could read it as an new os......

holy **** :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] oppaunke:

I know this question is very subjective to each individual, but how much data do you guys use on a monthly basis? It would be awesome if you included the average number of things you do each month with your phone (internet time, emails, videos, etc.) I am unsure whether or not to go with a Verizon plan on the GS4 because I have no idea how much data I will use (yes, I have looked at usage calculators), but your averages would be greatly appreciated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Imprezive13:
10 - 15 gbs on average
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 318sugarhill:
I fluctuate between 1.5 gb and 8 or 9GB depending on how often I use my Vulkano box to placeshift my TV. Many things use little data, but streaming video forget about it. It's a data hog and I'm not giving up my unlimited until forced to. It's a BS money making farce. Case in point.......Last week had to take my wife to the ER at 1 am. Kids had to be with us (young). To keep them entertained and not a total mess I tethered my tablet so they would watch the Disney channel. Vulkano is like a sling box......allows you to watch your TV on your device. In the time we were there while my wife was in the ER (she's fine btw) I used almost 2gb of data with them watching TV on the tablet.

The argument against unlimited is that there not enough "bandwidth" to go around, so they limit you to keep the network unclogged. 90% of my data comes at non peak times like this. There is no bandwidth shortage when I'm using it, so to charge me extra for data is nothing more than profiteering.

so, how much data? 2gb is standard. Do you have access to a lot of wifi, or will you be stuck on the network most of the time? That can HIGHLY influence your data usage. If wifi most of the time, you can go as low as 1. I do believe with the shared data, they update you before you go over so you can bump up the plan and not pay outrageous overages fees, and just pay for the extra data for that month.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dennelly:
I use between 2-4gbs a month depending on how much I'm working (work wifi sucks)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] DarkMenace:
I used to have Unlimited data and ditched it to save over $120. I was using a total of 4 devices and paying over $300.00. I'm now down to 3 devices and paying around $200.00. I have the 6GB plan and we average maybe 2GB if that. I'm always using WiFi. All the hospitals I go to have WiFi and I go to many a month. Other public places have WiFi as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lamanna99:
I use an average of 1 or 2gb a month. I probaly use about 1&half hours on internet/social networking apps and about 1 hour of watching youtube. But I am on wifi most of the time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 318sugarhill:
If all the public wifi was reliable I would be more apt to let go of my unlimited (except on a 4 phone plane with only 2 smartphones I'd pay $10 MORE for a limited plan), but in the hospital story above, there was an xfinity wifi available, and I am a customer so I can use it free, but they all limit your bandwidth, and the video stream wouldn't work.

I used to take wifi over the network when I could just to save battery life on my rezound, but the S4 lasts me a full day no problem, and if it needs a slight charge in the evening, it charges so darn quick, so I take whatever data is giving me the fastest speeds
