[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
What you can do at this point depends a lot on what has already been updated on your phone.

If the bootloader is already updated, then there's no way for you to load the older kernel onto it to get it ready to root.

What I'd suggest you do is to go ahead at try the rooting process.

Boot the phone into download mode and try to push the MD2 kernel onto it,

If the install tries to restart, it'll fail since you don't have the expected software, which hopefully will give you a usable system.

Then use motochopper to try to get "su" access.

If ODIN refuses to flash the MD2 software, it's probably the case that you've already gone past the point of no return (i.e. you've got the updated, locked bootloader) and you might as well let the update finish.

If you succeed, then install MDK and Voodoo OTA Keeper and cross your fingers.

Good luck!

Is there any way to add a 36dp navbar to cm10.1? I've tried flashing zips and editing the build.prop. Nothing works. If someone has a solution, please, let me know! I'm running unofficial CM10.1 7/14 build.

I got stock firmware 4.1.1 unrooted dont know why but when i take a picture my phone shuts off and start boot looping, i did factory reset and wipe cache partition and still cant take pictures ... HELP
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] convict_moody:
Reflash the custom firmware and for it to boot...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smallyetzon:
there is a mini tiny problem my mini usb port is bad :( can i flash a stock firmware without a computer?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] convict_moody:
No you can flash a custom based on stock... :(
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Do you still have warranty?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smallyetzon:
nope :(
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Maybe you can pay someone to fix your USB port?

Just noticed you said 4.1.1. Could you OTA to 4.1.2? Maybe it'll overwrite/re-write the borked files?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smallyetzon:
i did sent it to fix but came back charging but no conection with computer :( i went to about phone to update but it says im updated to the last
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Sounds like you're repair guy didn't quite fix it...

Who is your carrier? I'm pretty sure 4.1.2 is out for everyone now. Perhaps you could factory reset and then the phone would see the update (and rewrite the borked files)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smallyetzon:
yeah! bad tech i did a factory reset from settings menu and now camera works again thanks!! i will check if i can get the ota by air but got camera thank God!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] smallyetzon:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] saj222:
Glad your camera is fixed! Sorry to hear you're on att... They're the last carrier not to role out 4.1.2 :confused:
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] WinGzZ:
Hello,

I've been having an issue with a very inconsistent battery life and was wondering if anyone else had the same issue. Whenever I fully charge my device it has significantly less battery life than it did before the charge. The only thing that seems to fix this is restarting my phone. I don't want to have to restart my phone every single time I charge it. For example, normally on standby mode it would only drain about 2-3% over a 7-8 hr period. However, whenever I fully charge it and don't restart it drains down about 15% in the same time. Help!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Eudeferrer:
After visiting the local T-mobile store here in Miami, I was told that a 32GB version of the S4 could be ordered over the phone. My question is, does anyone know if this presumed 32 Gb version (which I've been told is not available in stores) can be flashed with all the ROMs that the 16 GB version has available in this forum, or will the fact that the storage capacity is different change the partition sizes and therefore make such flashing imposible/hard due to a possible bricking? Will the phone version also be different or will it still be an SGH-M919 (just with more capacity)? I think you probably can flash ROMS for the SGH-M919, but what do you guys know or think of this? I'm considering buying an S4 and would like the extra storage but I also love to try new ROMS and flash new things. Comments are appreciated.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Digital_Fidelity:
I could be mistaken, in fact I hope I am, but I think you got some false information. My buddy works at T-Mobile and I haven't heard anything about a 32GB S4 since the phone was announced. It was supposed to be 16, 32, and 64GB but they only released 16GB, and to make it worse there's only about 9 or less of that 16 available. It is still worth it, it's a great phone, especially since it has a microSD card slot, but it's frustrating having to find workarounds because of always running out of internal storage. I got used to it though, and it added another 50GB to my dropbox.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Spastic909:
Tmobile has no 32 GB model. My roomate works there. Not to mention you can easily go online and find that information out yourself. it's not that difficult
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Eudeferrer:
That's exactly what I thought, but after now having gone into several stores,I've gotten the same thing....."The 32gb version is available but it has to be ordered and it will be mailed to you at home." Can't say if it's true or just misinformation, but would love to see if anyone has confirmed this and actually ordered one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The111:
Sounds like a simple phone call could answer your question.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Saintfyre:
I just called 611, there is no 32gb model that they're aware of.

Of course this was only 1 call rep, but I believe the 1 call rep and the countless truck loads of information available online.

Rather than ask what you can do with the 32gb model, I would've called first as the stores suggested to you rather than ask about a mythical device that would piss everyone off who adopted early.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Eudeferrer:
Believe it or not, I did call before posting this thread. I was told by a rep that they had it but that it must be out of stock because it did but show up on her system. I think some of these reps have no idea of what's going on! Hard to know when to believe them and I guess illusive me wanted to believe her and think they do have a 32 gb S4 Thanks for checking up on it, though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] yorgasor:
Store rep says Jul 24th

I went to a T-Mobile store today, finally giving up on the 32Gb model. I jokingly commented, "And let me guess, the 32Gb model comes out tomorrow." The rep said that indeed it would. It would be available online through google or samsung, and that I could check in tomorrow and have him order it for me for pickup at the store. I guess we'll see, but I'm crossing my fingers.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] richardlibeau:
Maybe the S4 google but not s4 sgh-m919
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nexusmanftw:
Haha
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] yorgasor:
Clearly the guy was delusional

I called him back again today, he said the phone was not yet available and didn't have any more information on when it would be available. But it would be an official tmobile phone and come with financing, etc... I don't know why he suggested I go to google play before. I've decided these random salesguys are less than helpful.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] nexusmanftw:
They obviously dont know anything and lie to you to make you come back.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] yorgasor:
Well...

To this guy's credit, we were in the middle of filling out the form for me to purchase the 16G version, since I had given up on the 32G version and my current phone has been crapping out at a surprisingly bad rate. And he gave me his card to call back to see if the 32G version was in today or not. I think he was just trying to be more helpful rather than a purposefully misleading slimeball. He was just misinformed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] RanbirS:
When i got my 16gb galaxy s4, when I go to storage, I have like 8GB free space which is a big disappointment.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] fuzzie:
I had 2002 on my XDA, running most my apps from the SD card. I was using 2002 because 2003 tended to wipe my SD card out at least once a week. I never found the fault/cure to that, so I downgraded to 2002.

So last week I am sitting in my dentist's chair and he asked me about my phone. I go into total bragging mode, showing him all the neat things it can do. Well, it locks up. It had never done that before, so I hit reset. Looking back I may have had my finger on the power button at the time. I lost a lot of the system, not all it, but a lot. I had to go through the tap here, cut/paste screens to set it back up. Since that time, I have had to do this daily, 4-5 times a day. Is my XDA dying?

If it is dying, should I move to the XDA II or make the big jump to XDA III?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingston951:
Currently, I only got root, I am considering installing recovery cause i really want the PACman ROM, I had this ROM on my last smartphone(Xperia Play), can someone help me with this ?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sheephog:
I would

Personally, I would install Rom Manager from Google Play and use that to flash ClockWorkMod Recovery.

This will make flashing your phone much easier.

Though I can't positively say any of the PACman ROM's are 100% working for our device. i know I'm having network issues (but thats not exclusive to the PACman ROMs) and also a few other things like advanced settings not working.

I think the best thing to do is;

Make sure you backup your phone, -any data loss is purely your own fault

Flash CWM, and checkout some custom roms,

as i said just make sure to do backups, and if you're unsure about something don't do it, Theres plenty of places to get advice.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LauDav5:
Ok... I made a mistake.

Playing around cleaning things up after flashing new rom (venom, viper) and deleted two orphan data files through Titanium. Normally I'm pretty careful, but threw all sense out of the window... didn't look what they were...

Turns out they're pretty important, as now my home screens look like the attached (I hope they're attached, I'm on my phone)

Anyway, everything works, including the icons where the dead space is, where they would usually be along the bottom... but theyre just not showing.

Should I just reflash the whole rom, or does anyone know what the two orphan files are that have sent my home screens out of whack...

Any help would be amazing.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matt:
Just re-flash, it's no big deal :D
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LauDav5:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sweetnsour:
Were those two files cw and cwtemp?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monkeypaws:
If you reflash the ROM without wiping it'll put the files back. Without erasing data unless the ROM auto wipes.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Giblet-dono:
looks like a LCD Density issue to me,

You could first check the LCD Density in the Venom Tweaks maybe you canged something there..

otherwise just reflash the rom without wiping data
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
Personally I would just flash the rom again, I wouldn't delete anything to do with sense either.

If you want a senseless rom then go Google edition, removing bits at a time will just end up with something broken, it also looks like from the screen shot that you may have a 4x5 screen, could that when you removed whatever it was that you removed it messed that up too.

Reflash, no biggie.

Just wipe cache and dalvic.

Looks like you're having a bad day ;) Cheer up :D

Now youve said it... yes! It was those.

I'll do the non-wipe flash again then...

Thanks all.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goldenratio:
What is the purpose of those two files anyway? I've noticed them in Titanium Backup, listed as "orphaned data".
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LauDav5:
Nope.... I deleted those files but just fixed it with the LCD density, as suggested above. I don't remember playing with it, but I could've knocked the slider when going through the tweaks.

Anyway, glad not to flash again and reset settings. Thanks all for your answers and not just calling me a douche :)

Cassie's XtraLiteRom for the Samsung Galaxy Mega LTE I9205

Based On Stock Slovenia MG7 Rom​

History

I moved to the Galaxy Mega from the Samsung Galaxy Note and had produced one of the longest running roms for that phone, so now i pay my attention to the Galaxy Mega devices.

Its currently early days for this device and roms, as of 21st July we still have issues with CWM, Root, amongst other things so its back to the drawing board

Those who knew my later edition roms know that they came with Aroma Installer, alas this is another area thats not playing ball at the moment so ive gone back to the good ole days of producing a slim rom with removed app updates zips. Dont worry as development progresses the old style install will come back

Rom Details for V4 18th August 2013

Based on Stock MG7 Slovenia

Odexed

Pre Rooted with Super SU 1.51 latest Busybox

Memory management Tweaks

Removed Init.d Tweak

Removed Thunderbolted for smooth performance / battery life balance

Stripped to the BONE, Apks, Libs,Media,tts,Others

Currently 570MB - original over 1.1gb

Install Instructions For V4

1) Make sure you are rooted and have CWM installed

2) Make sure you have a Backup incase things go pete tong

3) Copy Rom Zip to your phone

4) IN CWM - Factory reset, Wipe Cache, Wipe Dalvik

5) Select Install Rom in CWM Main Screen

6) Select The file you copied over and click Yes

7) The installer WILL throw an error at the end but dont worry its all fine

8) When you click reboot now it may give you another warning about loosing root and it will ask you if you want to fix it - CLICK YES

9) First boot will be a while

Known Issues

A) Not an issue so to speak but certain menu items will cause a crash if you have not installed the additional apps, i.e faceunlock, or help file etc not a bug just the benefits of slim rom, but you probably wont come across it, Video player has odd dependancies

Tips and Tricks

1) Give yourself Developer Mode - Click Build Properties in about device until it tells you success

2) Turn animations to .5x instead of x1

3) Folder Mount works perfectly if you have it backedup when you open just pin the apps (after you install them before you open them)

4) Turn wifi on off at set times, Goto settings > Wifi > Advanced> set time

Users

One thing I pride myself on is my n7000 thread never turned into a flame war.

We were all new to this and needes help on the way.

I always flash my builds every which way I can as to reduce any risk.

All I ask is that you read and follow instructions before asking a question. However I will always answer where possible and I ask users of this rom to assist each other.

I appreciate english is not everyones first language an I ask you all to understand that when assisting people. People should always search first but we shall not flame anyone who does not

So please all play nice and enjoy yourselves

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] baladev:
thering1975 In the local forum i participate in some people flashed I9205 based rom onto their I9200 devices, taking the modem file (NON-HLOS.bin) out of the firmaware, an this worked fine. As an option it's also possible to remove the kernel and recovery from the firmware and in this case you won't get the two red lines after flashing. I guess your rom can be flashed to the i9200 in this way also?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] thering1975:
For the moment the modem is removed as ia the kernel.

No recovery is included as no cuatom kernel or cwm is done yet.

As for will it work on i9200 I cant say in theory I cant see why not as long as the partition table matches but alas im not going to recommend it so try at your risk.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] gx3k:
Congratulations! This is officially the first custom ROM for the Galaxy Mega 6.3. I'm sure this will be the best ROM just like with my original Note. Hopefully the issues with CWM and root will be ironed out soon. I am not bothered with AROMA as long as I get the slimmest ROM possible with rock solid stability. All the extras can be put in a separate file for those who want them.

So with Foldermount, is this correct?

* Do a backup of the mounts in the app

* No need to put the data back into phone storage

* After installing custom ROM, install apps that use foldermount

* Before opening the apps, restore foldermount data

Is the default phone storage bigger in this ROM? Thanks for all the hard work :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] thering1975:
I backed folder mount both with tb and its internal backup

Google rerestored all apps

Open folder mount and pinned the apps

Started apps and they all worked without downloading again

An thanks its crude at the mo hence beta tag loads to add in and ill update it regularly. Got loads to so but its stable so far and pretty snappy.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] thering1975:
A little extra storage in build one but original full rom is about a gig this is 680 or so but I got a way to go yet. Plenty of optimising nd strramlining. Plus nees to add in built in updater etc. The core setup without addons is heavily ut back probably save another 100mb from language files etc.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] thering1975:
Once I have a full stable version I will try to cook a 9200 edition as well just need to iron out the system to how I want it
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] gx3k:
I see, I just need to back everything using Titanium backup and restore them like usual. I deleted most bloatware manually and currently I get almost 900MB RAM free. The only Samsung app I use is the Watch On to use the remote control function of the Mega. Keep up the excellent work :highfive:
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] thering1975:
Use tb sparingly it can be a pain I restore data only.

Foldrrmount has its own backup in its settings I think. The app data is on your sd card so once pinned all good
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] gx3k:
I use Titanium backup a lot since some of my apps did not come from the Play store. Anyway, I will wait for the non-beta version as I am currently happy with my setup and tweaks. :good:
