[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yuvas:
If you've registered your phone in the Samsung account... You will be able to track it from the Samsung my account website..

Have you installed any third party app which provides phone tracking such as cerbrus or Avast? If you have.. It's gonna be a lot more easier.. Hope that the thief's haven't done a full wipe and a factory reset on your phone!

Hope you find your phone back!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
they've probably wiped the phone and there's nothing you can do besides have the police track it by imei.

if they haven't, install Lookout Plan B

no. you can't find out anything after it's been wiped

PS don't ask any more questions in this section, it's against the rules

Did you use xp sp2 and activesync 4?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Rayan:
I used to have ActiveSync 4.0 problems too... Device manager detected the device but failed to install driver.

In my case it started working once I swaped the cradle's USB connector to another USB jack with the PDA in the cradle.

Windows XP found the "new" device and installed properly this time... Now I can Synch fine through USB.

Also some say that you need to change something on you PPC, so go to Start/Settings/Conenctions/Network Cards and select "Remote-NDIS Host" and change it to "Server-assigned IP address" and then Ok, Ok, Ok...

I hope this helps you...

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] time4fun:
Please anyone, any help is greatly appreciated. I seem to have really messed up my friends Galaxy Tab (VZW). I've tried countless times to flash custom ROMS and they all just reboot when it says "Installing update..." Then it just reboots and does the same thing over and over. Right now I'm trying to use Heimdall to restore it back to stock but then it just boots the Verizon start up and then vibrates 3 times and loops forever. Nothing is working! It's so frustrating. It's even more frustrating that at one point I had 4.0.2 running fine but then all hell broke lose once I tried to upgrade to 4.1.2. So even trying to reinstall the initial 4.0.2 using the exact same method I used before doesn't work. I'm out of ideas, patience, and losing my mind. Please someone, help!

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] levaine:
I used titanium backup pro
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] levaine:
my browser isn't working either: I dunno what i did wrong: should i just go back to the stock rom and start over
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
Did you try to restore system apps ?

If so that would be your issue and/or just needing to do another rom install. Bad flashes happen and just start over
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] levaine:
When i went to restore i chose all missing apps and system data: thats what i saw online: I did wipe all my data and cache from my phone and tried again: and I got my messages to work and was even able to get all my txts too: but it still comes up that com.android,process,gapps has stopped working when i go to restore:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
Do not restore your apps or data at all going from 4.1.2 to 4.2.2. Restoring data can cause a myriad of issues especially going from 4.1.1 to 4.2.2. You have to start completely over in a sense.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] levaine:

So should I just go back to my stock ROM
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] levaine:
I went ahead and just went back to stock: i gonna wait till i get an sd card so i can do a nandroid backup and not have to worry about messing up again: I do like the cm mod maybe next time: I can get some help so i don't have any problems: but i do wanna thank you so much

No problem. Let me know if you need any in the future

Okay so I have a new problem: I went back to the stock rom: my backup was on this rom and on these setting: my titanium backup wants to freeze now and take up all my space: I have maybe 2 or 3 gb of storage from my music and apps: when i try to restore it: it will go down to 400 mb and freeze up: my storage will freeze when i calculate my space: I have just completed messed all this up i guess: I know that i will not even try this ever again: if i can figure this out: does anyone have any ideas:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hednik:
What are you trying to restore exactly ? Here's exactly what I would do

1. Boot into recovery and do a factory reset i.e wipe, cache, davlik, /system and data. (of course backup songs and pics first, messages as well to your pc or ext sd card)

2. flash the rom

3. Flash the google apps zip

4. Reboot and go through set up

5. install alll your apps from google play and do no use titanium backup right now for anything.

6. Backup up those app with titanium backup if you so desire.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] sookieball:
So my boyfriends s4 won't update to the

MDF3 or I337UCUAMF3 OR whatever its called. Lol

Anyways read the thread and saw I could install it for him via stock recovery and figured thru stock recovery it'd have to be renamed update.zip

Placed it in exsdcard root and applied. It failed at signature verification then continued to wipe his fone

Previous to this we tried just updating thru the fone settings and it gave him no update available since he got the fone.

Tried thru kies and no go also.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated to get his fone updated.

He doesn't plan to root so its not an issue and I'm not a noob to flashing things thru adb so if that helps. I was gonna just root and use CWM to try and do it but want to make sure I won't brick his fone first.

Thanks in advance and yes I searched.

Hello everyone,

My internal storage is only 8gb, and it has to be 12gb (as i saw it on screenshots)

I had an bricked note, and had to use Pit files to revive it | thread | (i got it at a REALLY low price due to this :) )

Does anyone know anything about this?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
Damaged emmc is where a section of the chip becomes unwritable through corruption. There is no way to recover this damaged space except by replacing the chip, and as it's hot soldered onto the board, they just replace the entire motherboard which is v expensive. I don't know what process you took to recover the emmc, but I imagine it was by scanning all sectors and bypassing the damaged portion in which case 8gb is all you're gonna get, and fairly standard I'm afraid. Sometimes, if you're lucky, repeating the scan of sectors can free up some more space.

Because of the limited space, you might experience freezes and reboots on stock roms because of their size, if this happens, just try a deodexed or cm based rom.

All the best, let us know how you get on.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tomaat:
I didnt use any scanning method via the recovery because it was too buggy to use,

I used an .pit file to repartition, it was for the common emmc bricks.

I do sometimes get random reboots (just reloading android, no real reboot) but it isnt really an issue, just have to do an real restart else battery will drain

After all for 70 euros im happy with the device, it has no major issues else than sometimes the random reboots

I think im a lucky man fixing the emmc brick?

Thanks for ur help! Atleast 8gb of space :) 32gb microsd card will help :P

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] brecklundin:
I found a YouTube video which really inspired me to roll up my sleeves and dig deep into using my new Note 8.0 in a far more exhaustive fashion.

This led me to consider, there are tons of YT vids which I might never find that could give any one of us some tidbit of info allowing us to get the most out of the device and apps.

[yt]yKYsYUNFFkg[/yt]

[yt]Zja4z9MJ3Qw[/yt]

[yt]MY1jgctLkMM[/yt]

The above video reminded me of when taking my upper division & grad math courses. Along the way I encountered a prof who required us all to buy a box of colored pencils...we all looked at each other like he was bat-crap bozo...well turned out when dealing with pages of complex differential equations that using different colored chalk on the board allowed the prof to cover vastly more in a lecture...so he wanted us to mimic that in our note taking...at them who knew? That really was something unheard of, colored pencils were the tools of....the liberal arts fer goodness sakes, right? hehehehe...

So I see how Note device brings that ability to an electronic notebook. The link above shows a med student who uses a similar technique with a few twists.

So I dunno maybe we can share interesting uses or tips on usage here, not like there are other forums with the breadth of information as we have here, right. So lets do it here is anyone is interested.

I use my Note II and 8 to sketch for leisure or professional. The S Note syncs all of the files with the Samsung cloud system. Just keep backing them up with the pc from time to time as these can somethings have errors as what has happened with my Note II.

It's nice to keep up with electronically keeping notes, but take all the precaution of backing them up regularly.

Sure, what do you want to know? Lol!

I use my phone mostly for drawing, sometimes for gaming, watching media, and as a document reader, oh and tons of web browsing, texting, and sometimes as an actual phone.

I use the spen gmd gesture control to allow gestures to turn on/off wifi, to launch a few different applications, and to run a couple tasker tasks. I have chrome set to desktop only mode.

I use tasker a lot for non note2 specific things, such as killing chrome and loading opera mini when not connected to wifi when i want to browse the internet (to avoid lots of data use), synchronizing data from snote+drawing programs+wallpapers to my dropbox account, and silencing my phone automatically when in class. I do like the app i found in the playstore that recalibrates the s pen (its called reset spen).

Dunno what else, i backup my phone a lot? Lol!
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] brecklundin:
so do you have any useful Youtube videos share??

I'm still at the point of setting mine up & learning how to use the " S-Apps".

I did discover something tonight, these ''smart" cases while nice do NOT disable the HOME button when case closed. So when You press on case over HOME button if it flexes enough the device will turn on. So much for "smartness" I guess. I would have thought when flap with magnets is closed the screen word not power on if the button is somehow pressed. They need to punish that developer I suppose.

Did you know that it's possible to config your Box or Dropbox or whatever cloud backup soyou get local copies of the *. snb file in internal memory (internal SD card). the external SD card & your cloud backup options all at the same time?

You just need to setup the local & remote folders & update/ sync links. It then happens pretty much automatically as the changes propagate your setup. It is pretty nifty & actually works well. I now have multiple fresh backups as well as near instant sync between my devices.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] TheNeighbor101:
I use Smart Screen Off Lite app for this problem. It makes use of the proximity sensor to turn off the screen even when the home button is accidentally pressed. I don't use those covers with magnets as they disrupt the S Pen and turn off the screen while I flip the cover at the back!

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] brecklundin:

Here's another option - disable the home button altogether. Here's a 'how to' YouTube video:

Disable Home Button
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) General] TheNeighbor101:
I'd rather not disable the home button. I do use it a lot. I disabled the capacitive buttons for about a week so that the would be no more accidental back button presses while on landscape position. It had proven to be more of a hassle with activating stuff on screen than without those capacitive buttons.

I want to use the home button. I like using it to conventionally switch to different apps. It's more pointless disabling it.
