[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dougone611:
So I've rooted my phone and I have installed cm 10.1 [4.2.2] via clockworkmod recovery and such. However I would like to install and try out the 4.3 version roms such as [ROM][4.3][JSS15J][AOSP][VZW][SPR]AOSP source build port. Do i proceed the same way as I did with cm 10.1 [4.2.2] or do i need to change the android version to 4.3 first before attempting to flash the 4.3 version rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
It depends on how the developer setup the install script. Basically follow the instructions in each specific ROM post.

sent from my GE gs4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mightycaptain:
Just follow the OP instructions for the ROM. Some have special instructions. Most will be a factory reset, wipe cache, davlik, system and data before flashing. Is also read thru the posts first to see if users are having any particular flashing issue. Or if a particular recovery is having issues when flashing which ever ROM. I've had good luck with TWRP 2.5.0.2.I've seen where the results are mixed with 2.6 for instance. Same for the other recoveries. Just read the OP instructions for the ROM carefully And follow them . Read what other users have posted. Keep a good nandroid and you should be fine. A good nandroid fixed everything, almost... Good luck. Happy flashing.

I have a SGSII E4GT and the battery just stopped charging. I have SlimBean Rom on and i was wondering if they will check any of that kinda of stuff or if they'll give me a new battery. There is no way to access the rom and all you see is the battery charging symbol so the only way anyone could know if i have a rom is if they turn the phone on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graydiggy:
Did you try different USB wires? It could be the port as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigj231:
You could always buy 2 aftermarket batteries with an external charger for $20... Then you have spare batteries if you ever want/need them.

Then if the USB port is dead you can just flash a stock ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Stryke_the_Orc:
How are you trying to charge the device? A wall charger or using usb on your pc? Depending on the kernel, usb charging via pc may be disabled by default in favor of some other service. You most likely will not receive a replacement battery unless you buy one yourself, in which case they arent even going to see your phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MixedBoy8thStreet:
Ive tried everything; usb, car (which is the only one that gets the phone to the charging animation) and wall. Ive actually managed to turn on the phone in the car and fac. reset it and all it did was make it worse. now when i turn the phone on it goes to the charging animation then flickers, then turns off
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] big_c:
I'm having this same problem please let me know what happens.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MixedBoy8thStreet:
Hey big_c are you rooted? if so what rom do you have? and just sub to the thread if you wanna stay updated;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] big_c:
Nope got the phone from someone I was going to port it to ntelos but Im thinking I might have to get the port fixed first. Did yours have the red light and charging symbol. But not take a charge. And i sub already just thought I'd say that just incase you got it fixed and did post how.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MixedBoy8thStreet:
No ive tried everything. Car, computer, wall (3 different ports)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MixedBoy8thStreet:
resolved

i took the battery out for 2 days and then used my trust car charger and now its on its way up to 100. currently at 49. ill let you know what happens:laugh:
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcgtsr:
Hi guys Im thinking of buying this phone (I have an old ARC), the major problem I see is the lack of ram, so I whould like to know how much free ram and how it handles it!

Thanks!!
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_helix:
The phone has 1 GB RAM out of which about 240 - 250 MB is reserved for the use of Android system. So you get around 760 MB RAM for apps & other uses. Depending upon the number of apps one installs, limiting the number of background processes & use of task killers, one can get anything from 200 to 350 MB of free memory. This is when using the phone without rooting & using the stock OS Sony has put in the phone.

Till now my phone has handled whatever I have thrown at it except Real Racing 3. All other games run flawlessly till you get bored playing them :p, HD movies are no problem either. In benchmarks also, it performs very well.

With real racing the maximum I have played on my SP is about 4-5 races, after which the game crashes & I have to restart the game after some time to play. If I restart the game immediately it crashes again within 1-2 races. Others also have reported the same behaviour. But there are 1 or 2 guys who say that the game runs fine on their SPs. I repeat, other games, even heavy ones, run absolutely fine.

So unless playing Real Racing 3 is what you do most you can go for this phone. However, if are still worried & can increase your budget a bit, then go for Xperia ZR which has the same sized screen & resolution but with a quad core processor & 2 GB RAM. That phone is also dust & waterproof.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcgtsr:
Thanks for the info, very handful! I have an tab 2 7.0 which 1gb of ram too, it unloads lots of stuff of the memory, but the SP is way more powerful... the experience should be different, I think.

About the ZR, its not available here in brazil, i have a plan which an cell operator here in Brazil and I can buy the SP for 520 Moneys or the ZQ(which is an Xperia ZL made to work in brazilian 4g frequencies) for 1130 moneys (BRL)

thanks a lot!

So I can choose, an SQ or an ZL for doable the price...

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2010ngojo:
I'm curently running stock T-Mobile version 4.1.2 and I cannot get the flash working on third party browsers. Stock seems to work fine, with a few quirks here and there. For example, Dolphin browser now supports flash but wont load and videos/games. It's just a blank/grey area where the video is suppose to be. I heard flash works in Dolphin on version 4.2.2, but the update is now out for T-Mobile (yet). And I don't plan on flashing on new rom anytime soon either. Any way to get flash working on third party browsers (4.1.2)?

Off-topic. Are there anyways to cailbrate the screen? The One has a noticeably warming tone compared to my Nexus 4, granted I calibrated that one.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Go back in recovery and flash a rom through adb sideload or flash a stock rom wirh Odin. Sideload how to http://teamw.in/ADBSideload, for how to use adb see itme 1 in my signature. Or turn off the phone, remove the external sdcard and place a rom on it and flash that in recovery.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamtalha:
as we all know i9100 has a bug where data partition gets bricked and is no longer accessable sooo i made a fix after bricking my phone :)

1.Download the attached Data Fix .pit file And The Attached Siyah Kernel .tar File

2.Open Odin And boot ur phone in odin mode or download mode

3.Flash the Phone With siyah kernel as PDA And Data Fix.pit file as the PIT . NOTHING ELSE.

4. Reboot to siyah recovery . Wipe Data . Go in mounts and storage and mount usb storage with ur phone attached to PC . When internal memory shows on PC Format it.

5. Thats it ur phone is fixed . Now Flash a stock firmware using odin or flash a rom via recovery its upto u but dont flash with the pit file .. if u have to use a pit file always use the data fix pit file from now on the original pit file wont work on our phones now

Note: u will lose 2gb of internal storage but phone will be fixed.

ill attach the Data fix.pit file below

Only For i9100 16 gb ill make one for 32gb if someone needs
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oscarandjo:

look bro try it if it dsnt work u can just flash ur original pit i myself have tried it i had the same problem its perfectly working for i9100 16gb

it actually creates a new data partition removing the previous one. it wont cause any harm to your phone that much i can assure u .

and every step is well thought so dont skip any step.

Hello!tomorrow is my mom birthday so I want to give her a present.I think xperia sp is the best phone that suit her the most but I search on Google I see that xperia sp have a display and touch screen problem.So what xperia sp user should I buy it or not. ....my mom only use it for call message facebook map. ...no need to root or anything.Please reply it fast I only got 10 hour left.sorry for my bad English
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shuvodip:
One-week Review

I myself bought this phone a week back, and I must say, I am happy with the phone.

Fortunately, I didn't have the touch problem in my device. When connected to USB though,

the voltage levels are screwed somehow and the touch behaves abnormally. But still,

files can be transferred with ease. The processor is kick-ass! And also the notification LED! :D

The battery drain is there, which stems from the various junk-ware installed, but mainly due to

Media Storage and the Google Location Sync. Camera is pretty good for me. However, one downside

I found is the Wi-Fi reception. Sucks big-time! Keeps dropping signals frequently, however does not

affect speed when connected.

Taking both downsides and advantages of this phone, I am in love with my device! Rest is up to you

to decide whether the downsides are grave enough for you to change your choice to another model!

All the best! :good:

Thx for the reply bro but is the wifi suck like the ipad 2 cus I have ipad 2 Ios6.1 and the internet connection is very bad so I guess it ok if I have this problem cus my WiFi router is in my mom room
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_helix:
Biggest negative point of Xperia SP is its camera. Daytime photography is ok but nighttime pictures are crap. As u mentioned that the wifi router is in your mom's room so the wifi signal strength would be fine. Few people have reported the touch problem but that is when the phone is connected to USB cable or wall charger. Other times the touch response is great. The display is sharp and colours are good, but it is a bit reflective. This issue is when outdoors, but one can always increase the screen brightness.

Best part is the performance for its cost & that LED notification bar, makes the phone look sexy.

So if camera is not the most important requirement, go for it bro.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dara007_168:
Ok bro I understand my big problem is the screen do you know what version of the SP that cause this problem C5302 or C5303 or C5306 I think I live in south east asia maybe my phone version is C5302.another problem is auto restart some people said their phone restart every day.Anyway thx for the reply bro
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_helix:
This issue is with almost all the Sony phones & not only the Xperia SPs. That is because the display used by Sony in their phones is not as good as the display used by some other manufactures like Samsung, HTC etc. However the problem is not severe. You can still use it outdoors if you manually increase the screen brightness a bit. I am from India & even my model is C5302. I have not faced any phone restart issue with my SP till now.

Good luck with your purchase & wish your mom a happy birthday.

P.S. Try to use the "thanks" button (on left side, below the profile picture) for saying thanks. It reduces the number of unnecessary posts written just for saying thanks.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dara007_168:
Yeah bro all SP user have this problem it's like 95/100 I think I'm gonna change my mind maybe Galaxy win or Alcatel one touch scribe HD what do you think?or any sony phone around 300$ but all xperia 2013 some are cheap and some are expensive and the price around 300$ is only xperia SP
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the_helix:
You can have a look at Glaxy S4 mini, Nexus 4 or Glaxy S3. These cost about same as Xperia SP or slightly more. Xperia L is also an option.

But as far as value for money is concerned I feel Xperia SP & Xperia L are better.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biglo:
Hey guys I have a question here, is there a reason why devs use the cyanogenmod source to build for the htc one and not the google play edition source which is already stable and have everything working fine? The Google Edition roms are fairly stable and the cyanogenmod ones can be used as daily drivers to an extend but still arent as stable as the Play edition so why arent devs building on these vanilla roms instead to create a stable customized vanilla rom?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gunnyman:
Play edition isn't pure aosp. There's still proprietary htc stuff in there. It's of little use to the Cyanogenmod guys from what I've been told.

And graffixnyc has released his blackjelly. Rom based on the GE stock. It's not Cyanogenmod so it lacks the custom features like theme engine but it's very fast and good on battery
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biglo:
Nice thanks for the response, I know the rom has some htc stuff in it but i mainly thought it was for the htc one's unique camera, its beats toggle option and for the now active IR blaster.

And I notice the blackjelly rom, will be keeping an eye on its development. thanks
