hello guys, i'm really desperate now. my Magician is dead. i followed the laid out procedure 100% for upgrading to bigstorage. that's what i did:

- dump rom on to the sd card (512MB).

- got a external card reader (since the one in my laptop did not work with ntrw.exe)

- killed ActiveSync (wcesmgr)

- dumped the rom to my hard disk

- got Big_ROM_Ger_1.11.nb1 from ftp

- changed the first 416 bytes with ultraedit.

- wrote the resulting rom to the sd card with ntrw.exe.

- flashed (got the question in bootloader mode, pressed power).

- flash completed, got the 100% message and checksum failure.

- did a softreset

- my Magician is now DEAD !!!

Tried to put it in bootloader mode again, nothing! Put out the battery, unplugged and replugged usb cable, nothing!

PLEASE, any suggestions or help ??????
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] BeyondtheTech:
Please explain "nothing." Are you getting anything on the screen, blank screen, backlit, logo, text, anything?

Can you zip and upload your modified ROM dump file to dropload, rapidshare, or some other portal where someone can take a look?

Did you pull the battery completely, reinsert it, and pressed the reset+camera+power to get back into the bootloader?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] 7bft:
the screen is absolutely blank. if i plug in the power cord not even the charging lamp is on.

i removed the battery completely for a few hours now, reinserted it just that moment and pressed reset + camera + power --> blank screen, no backlit, no logo, no text. i even used my torch to make sure i didn't miss the bootloader message. nothing.

when i press the reset + camera + power button the blue led blinks for a split second but then again nothing.

tried it with and without external power....

any clue????

Sounds like you have screwed it completely. Back to the shop...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] 7bft:
well, could be possible.... kinda teaches me not to mess around too much. i flashed my old xda II with magneto and all, never had any problems....

anyway, i will try to clear the backup battery over night and try it again tomorrow. if it still doesn't work, i'll get it back to the shop. it's brand new (2 weeks), so i guess (hope) it shouldn't be a problem.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] beta2morita:
No solution - but I had the same problem

Hello,

sounds that you have exactly the same problem I had. I also wanted to use bigstorage. First I updated to 1.06 official rom from T-mobile Germany. Then I used mksbigstorage to modify this rom. After installing this my mda was stuck at the splashscreen. But the bootloader still worked so I was able to restore my original rom.

Next I downloaded the 1.11 extended german rom from xda-developers ftp-server. I also replaced the first 416 bytes with the one from my rom. After installing this rom and doing a softreset my device was completely dead. No bootloader, no even a blinking light when connecting it with the power supply. I also tried to remove the battery for some time. But nothing worked. As I also had this device for just some days I finally did send it back and recieved a new one.

On this new one I also tried to modify rom 1.06 with mksbigstorage. But after that it was again stuck at the splash-screen. Mksbigstore seems not to work on this rom. Finally I was able to use bigstore by modifying two adresses in the original 1.06 rom downloaded from my device. This method is described in this forum. Worked without problems.

So I do not know what went wrong and I am sure I followed the instructions for flashing bigrom exactly, but as I am not the only one with this problem there is a risk flashing under certain circumstances.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] LumpiStefan:
I had the same problem flashed XDA 1 hundreds of times without problem. Flashed Magician device one time --> same problem as you have.

I've sent my device to repair center and they installed a new motherboard. So i don't believe that tehre is any fix to relive you're device..... :-(

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] BeyondtheTech:
I don't see anything wrong with the ROM file except for the fact that it's slightly larger than my ROM (65281k vs. 65427k). May have been a bad write to the SD card. Was your card a 64MB SD card?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] 7bft:
My card was a 512 MB SD Card, since it is the only one I have.

On Monday I'll send it to the service center :(
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] 7bft:
Re: No solution - but I had the same problem

Thanks for your response, kinda reduces my pain and asures me that I'm not a complete idiot....

I'm now pretty sure that I have the same problem as you have and that sending it to the service center is my only option....

At least I can use my Himalya with Magneto a few more days :wink:

I guess I will not try this again since I don't want to risk killing it again, allthough I allready had problems with the storage size on the working device (tomtom).

One more question: Did anybody ever had problems on upgrading from a t-mobile rom to a vodafone rom? is it even worth upgrading to 1.12?

Thanks for your help guys!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] stormtrupr:
hello all,

I used Odin to upload a new bootloader to my ATT S3 and that went fine, but where i messed up was my attempt to install gapps. I didnt realize it, but i installed the new 4.3 July 29th versions, which didnt play nice with Cyanogen mod 10. It broke the keyboard before i had a chance to install clock work mod rom manager.

I thought no worries, i will just install the rooted rom through ODIN, but that rom i downloaded wont boot (root66_ATT_I747UCDLK3)

does Odin not format the SD before flashing and thus i still have parts of CM and gapps keeping the stock rom from booting up? does the stock rom take more than 10 minutes to boot the first time?

please help!!!

thanks

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
All but one of the att stock ROMS are no wipe flashes. The only 1 that will wipe is LG1. BUT. It will also wrote your internal sd card, which is the same thing that will happen when you factory reset from stock recovery.

I would like install Cyanogenmod 10.1 on my i9000. I installed on my Ubuntu 12.04 heimdall 1.4 deb (for Ubuntu 12.10).

The guide is tho official guide on wiki's Cyanogenmod: wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_galaxysmtd

1. Download Semaphore's ClockworkMod Recovery, and the Heimdall Suite:

2.Power off the Galaxy S and connect the USB adapter to the computer but not to the Galaxy S.

3.Now boot the Galaxy S into download mode by holding down Home & Volume Down. Accept the disclaimer. After this insert the USB cable into the device.

4.Place Semaphore's ClockworkMod Recovery file into the Heimdall directory.

5.On the computer, open a terminal and run the following command from the Heimdall directory:

Any suggestions/hints/tips you have for me as a first time Samsung user with this phone?
[Galaxy Note II General] vladeco:
If you're already rooted, please please please BACKUP your EFS. Use this tool (EFS Professional). Only after that backup you'll be safe to completely hack your phone away. Place that backup in a safe location, like dropbox. Cheers!

This is one great device and I was kinda sceptical at first with all the newer a15 processor devices out but hell this bad packs a huge punch and it's pretty snappy to me!

All you need to know is in the sticky notes under the developmental area.

I use a prerooted stock odexed myself which seems to give me a faster but longer battery life than all the others I have tried. Just need to delete some unwanted bloatware is all!
[Galaxy Note II General] CJ0206:
There is an aweful lot of bloat ware, it's the only issue I have with the device so far.

I tested the battery today streaming HD video, heavy browsing and not letting the screen go off for long. The device lasted about 6 hours on some serious usage.

Hello guys, noob question here, in september im going to be studying in uk/brighton and i was wondering if i will be able to use LTE when it wi be available there. I have the GT-I9500 version.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazerm:
Nope, if I'm not wrong, the i9500 doesn't have an LTE Radio in it.

Sent from my GT-I9505
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andys93:
Is it worth it though? Or is the 3g-4g network cheaper and more practical?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliendna999:
is what worth it?

LTE is not avaliable on your hardware. You will need to purchase the 9505 variant for LTE.

So your question is redundant :D
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andys93:
I was asking if the whole lte concept is worth it, i might sell my 9500 and get a 9505 if it is.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aliendna999:
i dont understand :D

how can another person say if it is worth it for you?

some people might think so, some might :)

what do YOU think?

will you have the need of downloading stuff at high speeds? if not, then no, its not worth it :D
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andys93:
Well ive been living in cyprus for my whole life, fast speed for me is 10mbps and the fastest speed available in cyprus from an isp is 20-30mbps, in cellular in H+ i get approx 7- 8mbps its very fast for me if u consider that my house network is 2mbps so for me is not really worth it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dez93_2000:
this suggests you will be able to use LTE with your i9500
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
And that would be incorrect. The I9500 is not LTE capable. The E300K/L/S versions support LTE.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ayongkot:
lte speed

the reason i bought galaxy s4 GT I9505 here in italy is because of the lte radio in it. and i say the speed is very impressive. i have already tested 3 networks here namely vodafone, tim and h3g and i spend lots of money just to activate and test their speeds via speedtest.net. h3g has the fastest reaching speeds of up to 73.46 Mbps download and 13.89 Mbps upload, but it is still very costly to download files through this technology, maybe in time it will go down. however, activation of lte here in italy costs 1 euro/month for h3g, 6 euro per week for tim and for vodafone its automatically activated without cost, its the traffic that costs a lot. rigth now i am limited to only 150 Mb per day but good enough to browse the net and do my banking transactions using this phone via lte due its speed.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jas0nuk:
Yeah, to be exact, the 9505/E300K/L/S supports LTE but not LTE-A, which is what the 9506/E330 supports... I think? And neither on the 9500.

Edit: got it wrong first time around...

Sent from my GT-I9505
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dez93_2000:
Ahaa, useful, thanks both. How sure are you about the 9506?

So if I wanted a 32gb white S4 with LTE-A, I can forget about the 9500, and potentially forget about the 9505 since I can't find it for a good price/at all in white in the USA, and also it's maybe worth waiting anyway since the 9506 is the 9505 with a souped-up processor?

Don't suppose anyone knows any more about the 9506?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jas0nuk:
It can't be far away, a telecom company in Germany will be selling it and it's soon to get FCC approval in the US http://www.sammobile.com/2013/08/17/international-lte-a-galaxy-s4-gt-i9506-visits-fcc/

Been looking into it: seems that IFA (a tech show in Berlin) is on literally now here and Samsung are currently going through their wares. Nothing yet about phones, only smartwatches & tablets, I assume they'll be the big finale.

Or not: looks to have finished, nothing explicitly about the 9506 or 9507. Peculiar. Maybe the situation with the S4 has gotten so fractured and confusing they can't even bring themselves to announce the new models?!

---------- Post added at 11:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 PM ----------

Apparently Samsung are planning a review to look into the disappointing sales of the S4. I wonder to what extent those poor numbers are attributable to Samsung flooding the market with a confusing myriad of ultra-similar models?

By my reckoning there are 3, soon to be 5 variants of the same model, with up to three (64gb never seen in the wild) RAM options and colour schemes differentially available depending on location, with international capabilities mostly understood from enthusiast messageboards (esp here). There's already talk of the S5. Why on earth didn't they wait a while to get everything in place and make one international LTE-A compatible variant with the best version of their Exnos chip tweaked and mass produced and working well, all RAM & colour options available from the outset?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jas0nuk:
Yep. The number of S4 variants is crackers. It feels like the phone was rushed to market to meet a deadline set by PR/marketing people who weren't communicating with engineers... that's just me speculating though!

I wonder if the 9506 will have a bigger battery? That Snapdragon 800 will surely consume more power.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trickee360:
So I updated to 4.3 last night, and now when I try to run TB to backup my apps to my ExtSD, it says I have no storage space left. I checked the settings, and TB now says the folder that is picked, ExtSD/TitaniumBackup, is not writeable. That ain't good. Also, I used ROM Toolbox to create a shortcut from a folder on ExtSD to where Google Music stores music files in /data so i could use my 64GB SD card to store my music instead of my dinky 12GB internal storage. I checked Google Music today, and it is able to play the downloaded music just fine but isn't able to download anymore. These two things make me think there's something different about how 4.3 handles ExtSD, and it's for the worse. Is this a known issue? And if so, is there a fix? Is there ANYTHING I can do to fix it?

EDIT:Also, DoggCatcher is no longer able to download to ExtSD. Kinda starting to freak out here as having an SD card was one of the major reasons I went with a GS4 and it now appears useless
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Trickee360:
Fixed following instructions found here: http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s4-google-edition/303764-4-3-sd-write-access.html

install root explorer app or some other file manager that can use root then

1. navigate to /system/etc/permissions and make sure you have mounted the file system r/w.

2. Edit platform.xml and find the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.

3. Add an additional group definition for this permission...<group gid="media_rw" />

4. Save the changes to the file.

5. Restart your device

at this point you should be able to write to the sd card from applications once again.

Dont use task killers.

That is a normal thing, the stats show actually what you were doing and what was using the battery it does not means that the 45 % of the battery was used by multimedia, if is a memory problem were you stop using multimedia and it keep draining the battery you can try the app greenify from the app store, this app freezes or put to sleep the apps using memory, but it does not uninstall them or freezes them so you can use them at any time. it really worked for me.:good:

Hello,

I sold my Xperia after some time and I can tell you the Bravia Engine and little customisation from Sony is great. The feel of phone in your hand is also good. Also, the xperia U/P/Go/Sola/ other devices are very good gadgets and they have enough support from developers.The LED bar in Xperia U is truely awesome and it could change colours just made it epic. If you are go for looks and beauty, certainly these devices are for you. Performance is good usually but not good enough in some case. (the price is not too high)

What are the factors that disappoint you ?

I will tell you mine what I can think of:

*Usually no expandable memory and in some case, battery is fixed.

*Bugs in ICS with no real support from Sony on these devices

*Bad battery life although I turned off the LED bar and used it with zero brightness. Still couldnot last more than a day on average use.

*My charger started to take long time to charge and it was quicker to charge via USB cable. In the beginning the charge time was epic. Just about an hour to charge it fully.

*NO SUPPORT FROM SONY AND UPDATES COME VERY VERY LATE AND DEVICES ARE ONLY SUPPORTED FOR MONTHS.

*NOT REAL LOUD SOUND

UPDATE :

I bought another Xperia :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sgmini:
You forgot Xperia sola :p
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gattlin:
Because of ICS laggy update, no support of Sony, no jelly bean update for Sony xperia u and poor service
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bladestift:
im currently using xperia sola for about a year. ive tried a couple other xperia phones '12 like u, p, s, j and sony didnt good that much of a work. this mid price range devices dont have great potential (using sony's stock os). that unfortunate thing is that if you want to make your devices OK you have to do lots of stuff(root unlock bl etc etc you get the idea). but most of the people dont know about xda-flashing rom etc.they just stay at gb or stock ics and complain,or choose to buy a more mainstream devices and this results to not jave that great potential from xperia mid price range device community.
