[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pinsb:
In the UK service centres are not allowed to do a glass only repair, it has to be a complete replacement LCD/Digi/Glass pre bonded.

This means a good secondary market has sprung up for glass only repairs usually costing about £50 inc shipping.

I would suggest do an ebay.ca search for "s3 glass repair" and see what you find, I'd recommend only getting it done by someone with good feedback, there's the potential they can break your LCD doing the glass and you'd rather a seller who's been around a while and more experienced.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_raider:
The glass is undamaged. It's either the digitizer, the connector or the board itself.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
The digitiser is sandwiched between the glass and the AMOLED panel in a "sealed unit". As mentioned, the entire unit is usually replaced. You can get the glass off with a heat gun and replace the digitiser, however not without breaking that glass, so at the very least, you would need a digitiser AND glass.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr_raider:
I've seen kits that have the whole front assembly:

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/FOR-...-Assembly-white-color-original/672389215.html

The repair seems easy as I have already fully dis-assembled and re-assembled the phone on my own. Only thing that worries me is not knowing if it's the digitizer, or the actual motherbaord that's bad. I don't want to blow 150$ for a repair and then nothing solved.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
This is the full sealed unit. Why don't you send the phone somewhere for assessment as suggested? We can only guess. Like you said, you dont want to pay for something isn't. Be careful of companies that don't know their products. The s3 doesn't have an LCD display

Hello I have an o2 xda2 s running Win Mobile 2003 se that is about 1 month old.

I have a problem. If I use the contacts app to dial a phone number, the contacts app locks up and will only work again after a re-boot. This is getting a pain because I dial my contact numbers in this way.

Whilst the contacts app is locked up the rest of the pda and its applications work fine.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Guyz,

I have exactly the same problem.

I was using pocketNav..and i realise if i close the contacts using pocketnav (which i have to do everytime), it randomly stops working.

Do not know if pocketNav's the culprit, but it's a great app that closes applications quickly..

Again, a soft reset solves the problem..but this isn't the long term solution we all want, do we? hehe

Hope someone can shed some light on this issue..

Cheers.

Since I can't post in the thread of the rom: CyanogenMod 10.1 - WILD FOR THE NIGHT. I need help with syncing contacts on my device. I tried to import my contacts from Facebook but no matter what they will not import.

[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Novek:
Nice! I'll try it out and report back some important aspects as recovery present, gsm/sms etc... :)

-No recovery

-No navbar at startup, but can be turned on. Very huge though.

-battery bar not working

-no root included, may be fixed with new supersu binaries

Over all quite nice :)
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Eeelgen:
I've been waiting for a kang like this one since I flashed CM for the first time on my Z.

There seems to be some issue with navbar, at least with dirty flashes. Ended up without one on first boot and super humongous after I got it to appear on my second, easily manageable due to real time change but still.

Anyway it seems really nice for a first release.

[MENTION=4169381]m3dd0g[/MENTION]

nice rom.. best 4.3 rom till now, considering the amount of customizations you've provided. i'd tried version 1 yesterday, liked it, although there was no recovery option... which wasnt a big deal, coz its rooted anyway, and i just had to flash all those zips along with the rom in the beginning... and also, by evening, u'd launched version 2 with recovery anyway... so great work... i cant think of going back to the any of the other 4.3 roms which i'd tried till now coz they might not have all these customization options in their rom... i use the xperia at 240dpi (tablet mode) and have had lags and other crashes on all other roms till now expet this yours - even version 1 was quite stable that way... and have tried used every 4.3 rom cooked till date starting with the leaked google play ported by swift early july... and then the ones after google released aosp and sony had released binaries.. so like i said, best till now, although there are a few teething problems... i think the battery's getting drained quickly.. one second it says i have 16% battery left, n then it goes off and i cant turn it back on till i leave it to charge for a couple of minutes and then when it turns back on, it says 6%... also, i hope u fix the recoovery access for external sd card soon... its no big deal, for now, i've been just copying the stuff to flash to internal, but i keep trying lots of stuff and i like to take full backup on CWM recovery before flashing many unpredictable zips... so i cant hold over 2 backup copies on the internal due to size restriction, whereas i have 64GB on my sd so obviously that would be a heck lot better...but i have a feeling, u'd launch version 3 and fix all this by the time i finish typing this boring long story.. lol..

keep it up.. really interested in where this is going.. cheers

[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] Gh3ttoKiLL4:
Hello everyone

Before 2-3 weeks my beloved phone was fallen into my sink with water flowing :(

It works well, but the USB port now seems to work not good.. I've tried it on my PC and one another PC with different cables but it does not connect :(

So I wanted yesterday to make an update to 4.2.2 via Kies but as I mentioned it does not recognise it and odin too..

I thought to use mobile odin, but unfortunately, I went to stock (without root) before a few weeks..

So my question is, is it possible to root my phone without a PC?

Can I simply root it via stock recovery or would it brick then?

I found a way too root with an app, but its for exynos4 devices only :( and since the I9105P is broadcomm (not sure if I'm right) this method is not possible :(

Or did you mean another file ?

[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] EnergySnail:
Oh I'm sorry. I meant that you can root without PC (usually people roots without PC), but you need to have CWM to root your device and to get it you need to have PC and flash it with Odin.

And BTW do you have Kies installed or do you have drivers for you phone on your PC?

EDIT: And those CWMs and Kernels doesn't work on S II Plus.
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] KINGbabasula:
Don't flash this! It will brick s2 plus. It's a kernel and the mountpoints are different

Hey ;)

Half way down the page youll find the describtion to root and get CWM without PC (you didnt look naugthy you) ;)

Its flashed though stock (Think its called c3 or something)

I dont have Kies and find its the worst program ever made, there are many other ways to find drivers... just search ;)

I dont know about your phone model, but wanted you to know its possible to root without PC ;)

---------- Post added at 09:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:57 AM ----------

Just had to boot my PC :)

OK ...

Here is the text :

"paste"

Download xxx-signed.zip kernel matching your ROM

Put the previously downloaded xxx-signed.zip file on your external sd card

Boot into stock recovery (volume up+home+power)

Select "apply update from external storage".

Now select the xxx-signed.zip file you copied in previous step

You are rooted + new PhilZ-cwm6 kernel with CWM6

Can tell you it worked like a charm for me :)

What is your phone model?

Mike
[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] EnergySnail:
Sorry I didn't know that, you are right. But I dont know does S II Plus have a rooting zip that can be installed using stock recovery.

It's like KINGbabasula mentioned: this will brick my phone.. (we are here on gt-i9105/p forum, so I have a gt-i9105p)

I thought that was the solution, but it seems to be too easy :( every time I enter stock recovery and then choose any option there appears a open android with a red triangle on it :'(

[Samsung Galaxy S II Plus] Gh3ttoKiLL4:
Maybe right direction, but unfortunately not that what I'm searching for. It says ' Also, a recovery that uses "OpenRecoveryScript", such as TWRP, is recommended. You may try it on CWMR, but it may not be able to flash anything depending on the build.'

Since I have stock recovery, this method isn't possible :(

But before a few hours I find out that my stock recovery is useless too, cause of that open android which is lying, with an red triangle and black exclamation mark, which appears every time when I choose a option :cry:

I believe the only solution is to get my beloved to manufacturer for a repair :( hope I still have warranty although there's water damage

Or knows anyone more solutions?

My Optimus tells me that my Android 4.0.4 software is up to date, which I know is not the case. I've spoken to LG and AT&T and neither of them have been able to help me.

I'm looking for another method to install Jelly Bean without having to root/unlock the bootloader on the phone. I know that it's easy to do but I just don't trust myself to do it correctly.

So i finally unlocked my bootloader on my p769. After i unlocked it i went to recovery and restored my backup to a 20F T-mobile P769 rom (yes i know this was stupid, I should have installed recovery via fastboot while I had it open). My touch screen is borked and I have no recovery set up.

Things I've tried:

To turn on USB debugging, the backup i restored does not have a homescreen so I cannot access the settings to turn it on.

The KDZ offline flash method, but it always stops at 15% even though i've uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers countless times.

"Upgrade recovery" via the LG software tool. It gets to the part where it downloads the file and even after 2 hours it doesn't download. My hosts file did not have LGs IP when i tried this.

Is there something I'm doing wrong? Is there a button combination to force my phone to go to fastboot mode? Or can i got from s/w upgrade mode to fastboot mode? This is really frustrating.
