Just a query doctor.

If it is SDS, would the Service station repair for free of cost?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
It's you have warranty, they will.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ribice:
And if I don't have any paper, what's the estimated cost of fixing it (so they don't overprice it)?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Nearly half the price of device. :mad:
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ribice:
Well, seems like I made a big mistake buying this device. Calling some international support won't help?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] convict_moody:
Trying flashing boot through jtag box it helps alot in fixing boot problems
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ribice:
<ID:0/012> There is no PIT partition

Well since I don't have any paper, but it's obviously Samsung's fault, is there any way to get it fixed for free by calling customer support in EU?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] convict_moody:
Dude if you have riff box it can fix partitions and boot. If not find someone who has one, it will fix ur problem
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ribice:
Riff box = JTAG?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.ketan:
Don't waste time, nothing will work in SDS.

You can understand sds is just failed hardware, no software can do magic isn't?

Jtag works if you have messed up bootloader and device doesn't get boot/download mode.

You can't put life in dead that is that simple.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] convict_moody:
Yeah, it has a samsung partitioning plugin for similar problems..

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Logain38:
Is anyone else kind of annoyed about these other phones that are skipping 4.2.2 and going straight to 4.3? I know there won't be any major differences but I feel like we bought the latest and greatest but are getting shafted. Maybe I'm being anal, I just find it hard to believe they will update us to 4.2.2 and then 6 months later send another out for 4.3. Maybe I'm wrong. Thoughts anyone?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] flex360:
we wont be getting 4.3 sense till november or so

by next year the htc one will be dead
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] pmacevad:
You think so? I sure hope not. My retired evo is still getting (unofficial) updates. Hope the fun continues for longer then just next year.

I'm sure we will see 4.2.2 soon and I'm hoping we also get 4.3. The phone should handle it right?

I haven't seen any phones that are getting 4.3 other than pure Android phones, which already have 4.2.2...

Everything is still speculation.

And c'mon guys, the One came out not too long ago and you're already annoyed about updates. Geez.

Stories out today saying note 2 will skip and go directly to 4.3. They aren't saying that it is happening anytime soon.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Riff76:
I'm happy with 4.1 and bought my one not expecting a lot of updates. I like the finesse Sense gives the phone that AOSP always lacks. That's just me, other people like AOSP and really it's the wrong phone for that
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Rippley05:
I care less about 4.2 or 4.3. They are so minor..android has hit a plateau and I'm satisfied. It is sad that development overall has been mastered to a point where nothing happens anymore haha.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] CNexus:
Yeah sure. The HTC One S was also supposed to get 4.2.2 according to an insider, but then HTC out and said no.

The S3 was also supposed to get 4.2.2 by the middle of this month. Well we didn't.

It's all rumors and stories until it actually happens.

Sent from my S3 on Sense 5 (you jelly?)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Logain38:
I really really like sense 5, I keep wanting to go to AOSP based Rom, but when I do I always End up missing certain things about sense, which is really weird cause I hated sense on my 3vo, and the more I think about it it's not a huge deal just wanted other people's opinion. And I suppose if I really wanted updates I could have gone with a nexus instead
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] aman1127:
Like what was mentioned before, the new androids aren't too different. I mainly want the upgrade so we can get ports for all those roms that the GSM version has. Apparently that's the only thing stopping us...the lack of a CDMA 4.2 kernel
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] eXplicit815:
You must be new to HTC.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] XaoSilentrzk:
Lol man I'm just going to accept the fact android is screwed up updates and Verizon ****ed CDMA over on getting another Nexus. If Google releases the N5 with beast specs and S800... I'll sacrifice the One for it just to have direct updates

Sent from my HTCONE
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Logain38:
I had the 3d, but was rooted and was running the newest version, there was a lot of development for that phone so it was nice.

And I was really bummed out we didn't get the N4, and if we do get the N5 it'll be a tough choice to get rid of the One, cause I really do like sense 5...who knows time will tell
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Riff76:
I doubt sprint will get the nex5. Better off wit tmo or att
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] XaoSilentrzk:
This is what I don't understand... If Apple can release updates bypassing carriers... Why can't Google? I'm asking this regarding SPRINT because Sprint dossnt force bloat. All their apps can be found on playstore except VVM, but I'm sure Sprint can just somehow get It to us

It's not the same thing. iOS is dominated by one manufacturer while in Android there are multiple manufactures involved.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Riff76:
Back in the day, apple could tell the carriers it's my way or the highway. They didn't take the carriers bs and seems like it has stuck since Android started dominating in sales the last few years
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] XaoSilentrzk:
Obviously HTC doesn't, but don't you think Samsung could? Samsung plays a Major part in sales outside the FailPhones

Sent from my HTCONE
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Riff76:
Samsung should be able to. Not sure if they do. Honestly they probably don't, and a good reason why is because of all the sh1t phones they made prior to the galaxies
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] aman1127:
If the Sony honami ever comes out, I'm switching to whatever carrier has it. Cmon, S800 and a 1" sensor from the rx100? No brainer.

Back to this, I'm really hoping that 4.2 brings us more options. I don't mind an older phone, as long as the development community is there. I hated my evo on year 2 but there were so many roms. New ones are still coming out. I believe that was S1
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sauprankul:
Not sure why there is unwarranted hate towards the iPhone. There is nothing wrong with an iPhone, per se. In fact, probably a lot of Android users would be better off with an iPhone. Android, aside from requiring clearance from carriers (idk why though), is less efficient. The iPhone has much better build quality than most of the Android phones out there. I would have bought an iPhone if I didn't know how much seemingly basic stuff it can't do because iOS is too tight. And it's boring. :)

That said, I hope 4.2+ is more efficient than 4.1.2. Stock non-rooted gives me TERRIBLE battery life, at least, compared to most of the people on this forum. That, 800 LTE, a sharper camera, a re-calibrated display (for colors and brightness) and NFC to wifi direct are all I need that haven't been announced yet.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
He hates everything unless it's beast :D
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] raptoro07:
This isn't accurate though...... Apple does not "bypass" the carrier. They work with the carries just as Google and the Android OEMs do. The main difference as was already mentioned is that they do not have multiple hardware and control every aspect iOS. If all Android phones were plain AOSP and no differentiation from various OEMs, Google could do the same thing.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] XaoSilentrzk:
What do you mean by "beast"? That makes no sense at all!

I don't like the apple ecosystems personally. Rooting has gotten boring since the S1/OG EVO days for me, but apple has an iron fist on everything.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ghostinrags:
... ahem ...

Not to drag the conversation back to the actual topic, or anything, but what exactly does our 4.1 Sense phones lack from 4.2 or 4.3? Daydreams? Who cares. The One is a powerhouse, and HTC is trying to be better about their ways, give a little credit. Even so, we have the devs who help us all. I ran my HeroC on CM7 at almost a full 1 Ghz and it rocked the house, way after HTC left her behind. My Evo 4G? Didn't even care about stock at all. This baby? ViperROM. Stock kernal. Because I really like what HTC has done this time, and I think I'll suppoet what they are trying to do. They gave us tools to unlock our phones! HTC Devs! Unheard of. Let's think of the future, watch the forums, and stand together behind HTC. At least they help our devs. Samsucks. HTC for the win. Peace.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] XaoSilentrzk:
You guys only ride me because my name is similar. I would like the discrimination to stop

From what I read in m7 thread... 4.2 isn't that much of an upgrade our 4.1. There were efforts of bad battery like. Plus side, I read daydream it's cool, you can now select audio visualizations, battery %... And many other things. I'm kind of tired lol

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] aman1127:
Ugh if they really did care about use we would get a substantial update already....or at least have a timetable
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] scottspa74:
I accidentally thanked you. I meant to quote with a simple *whine*.

Seriously, people, the jump from 4.2.2 to 4.3 is negligible. Now, 4.2.2 is nice with quick reply, and other sh1t I can't think of right now. But sense will probably botch that, too. Run AOKP or DU etc and you'll always have the latest. The One community has a veritable sh1tton of development. You're on XDA, there should be no butthurt about "updates" (except source, I get that).

And the post on p3 about most android users probably prefer iOS, ...made me throw up in my mouth after punching the wall lol. Nonsense .

Frozenriff, bigdaddy, explicit, etc., hope you cats are all digging the one. I had yo skip this go-round.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ghostinrags:
Amen, Scott. 4.2 isn't that big a deal. But Day-Um the people's will scream bloody murder. HTC gave us functionality OF 4.2 (read, swipe keyboard for one) which is cool. Plus, Sense 5 is proven to be sick fast and smooth. As far as a timeframe as to when we get updates? Really?! Especially with Sprint "helping"? Bzzzt. Wrong. That's why we run forums and have nice devs. The company is out to make MONEY, not make us cuddly warm and all smiles. They've given us the tools to tweak their products. How much more can we whine about? Good job, HTC. AWESOME job, devs. Users? Let's see some reality. Love what you have. It not TouchPiss at least.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] :
^ this, minus the One community. The GSM variants have it good-- our section is pretty quiet right now in comparison, although there are enough variants to keep most users happy (unless you really are dying to have the millionth CM10.1 variant). The only two things I really want out of the 4.2 update are Sense-native quick toggles and Dashclock support, but the second is minor and Power Toggles handily solves the first.

So long as the device runs most apps out there, it's not really a cause for complaint.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] aman1127:
I completely agree and I don't normally care about updates. 4.1 was awesome.however in this case, development for us is now just theming. We need to get over the 4.2 hump for more to happen with both sense and aosp. After that, I don't care because xda is awesome when it comes to reviving aging equipment.

So Sprint, if you're really listening, **** an update and upload just the 4.2 or 4.3 kernel to here. These guys will do the rest. We need more roms!

who doesn't care that much about the version number, but about the fixes/optimizations that major updates bring?

ZOE is one of the big ones. Then there's charging speed. Camera focus. UI lag fixes. List goes on.

None of these have to do with Android version number. These are on HTC.

[Sony Xperia L] Rxzero:
As we know the Xperia L removed the stock browser and replaced it with Chrome browser

However I like the stock browser more and I tried to place Xperia V's stock browser into my L's system/app but it is not working

so is there any way to get the stock browser back?:confused:
[Sony Xperia L] Outpapa:
It's the same for me. I prefer stock browser. Chrome seems to lag and I think it is not well optimized on XL

Sorry, I prefer stock browser of ICS. ;)
[Sony Xperia L] allenwalker1998:
Chrome and stock browser is the same. They both use WebKit rendering engine. So using chrome is as good as using stock browser
[Sony Xperia L] Outpapa:
I don't think... For example on my SK17i, ICS stock browser was smooth and fast, very pleasant to use. But Chrome seems to lag, it is not as smooth. I really prefer stock ICS browser.
[Sony Xperia L] signashoes007:
try to changed your title..

They are right; Chrome browser is the stock browser..

It confuses a lot of readers..

Generally, Chrome browser was use on JB version..i'm sure not only on Sony Xperia, but to other phone as well..(i remember Nexus4 of my brother-in-law having Chrome as his stock browser)..

Try to install other browser.. Opera Mobile/Mini works fast on my XL.. Though it has limitations..It is okay for me..

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sh@dow1978:
I made the silly mistake of not doing a complete backup of my EFS folder before flashing my cellphone with a custom ROM:crying:

and now my EFS folder is empty;if I delete it with ES File Manager (my phone is rooted) as soon as I reboot the phone, the EFS folder is created again,

but it is empty.I'm able to make and receive phone calls,send and receive sms,use wireless,bluetooth and gps,but if I dial *#06# my IMEI is blank.

With Galaxy Tool Box (the Rom installed it) --> Device Information I can see my correct IMEI (same number write in the battery slot).

I have a CWM backup and these files are in the backup folder: .android_secure.vfat.tar / boot.img / cache.rfs.tar / data.rfs.tar / nandroid.md5 / system.rfs.tar

Could one of these files help me restore my EFS folder (with all the files ofc)? Even the Product code is gone (KIES doesn't recognize the device)

I've got the the original stock firmware for my italian GT-S 5830i ,and I've tried to flash it with ODIN (PDA/MODEM/CSC) but that was pointless.

Thanks in advance for your time and consideration.

Have a nice day.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DamnTarget:
The EFS Partition doesn't contain any files, it only contains raw HEX Data so it is normal for it to be empty. I recommend you install a custom kernel then flash the stock ROM via Odin as this has worked for me in the past.

Hey there guys :)

yesterday i bought chainfire 3D on my Xperia Play, it works fine, but in the section Open-GL per App i can't activate the MSAA and DEPTH Buffer because it requires a driver, but i've installed all the drivers and plugins like the QUALCOMM, NVIDIA and POWERVR. What do i have to install to get those things work?? Or it's simple because Xperia Play doesn't support?

the plugins i found by searching and of course i've installed:

nvidia: http://www.mediafire.com/download/pme09ev45tvxuu6/libGLEMU_NVIDIA.zip

qualcomm: http://www.mediafire.com/download/yflfd6wwhule66x/libGLEMU_QUALCOMM.zip

powervr: http://www.mediafire.com/download/9jlvzcd2kaiw9ti/libGLEMU_POWERVR.zip

For now i can play Nova 3 with full details and it runs very smooth, totally playable

well i don't think, because adreno booster isn't a driver.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pooch11:
Hello everyone. I'm having an issue with my phone. I'll try to explain in detail where I'm at.

My phone is a GT-I9305 model. I started by flashing through Odin a stock pre-rooted version of Android that I downloaded from a thread here. The exact version was GT-I9305TADEVR (4.1.1) (EE UK). The reason I did so was because this phone was given to me but was sim locked and through research I found that by flashing back to 4.1.1 I can easily unlock the phone for free. The flashing went well and booted up fine. Unfortunately I flashed an incorrect modem ( i think ) and lost connection to the network. I've since then searched and installed modems suited for the 9305 model but still when the phone loads there is no network. I've gone into settings --> about device and under baseband version it is still reading unknown.

For some reason I'm also not able to get Windows 7 to read my phone to transfer files to the internal sd card. I've installed and re-installed the Samsung drivers but no success. So right now the only option I have is flashing through Odin (oddly that connects just fine to Windows) or copying zip files to an external sd card and flashing through CWM

Any help is appreciated. If I've left out important info please let me know and I'll post more details once I get home from work and have the phone in front of me.
