[Samsung Captivate Glide] albsp15:
I had to find some workaround to get it downloaded, but I finally got it...:good: : Tested, but I'm afraid it keeps on first screen: Welcome... Initializing, Please, wait.... :crying: (and it keeps waiting and waiting...) :crying:

Based on the log messages of EFS Pro 2.1.73 (previous screenshot, failed while checking PIT integrity), I've set the EFS Pro in debug mode, and I've found the following thing, that (I believe) points to a problem on the PIT file, althouth I'm not sure about how importat it's and if it might be related to the unlock SIM code and to backup the EFS:

When checking all partitions on Backup tab, message is:

-------------

Enumerating device partitions...

Extracting PIT from device for mapping... Okay.

Checking PIT file integrity...

Operation Failed!

-------------

If I use the "Extract device PIT file" option, I get the same error message: "Number was less than the arrays lower bound in the first dimension. Parameter name: srcIndex", and the logs show similar error as before:

-------------

Checking device connection... Device is connected!

Extracting PIT file from device... Okay.

Checking PIT file integrity...

Operation failed!

-------------

I've extracted the PIT file and analyzed with PIT Magic... and it shows it's empty... Do you think this is normal??? :confused:

The EFS mount point looks fine:

------------

EFS Mountpoint Query:

---------------------

Mount Folder: /efs

Mountpoint: /dev/block/mmcblk0p1

------------

And If I get the partion list, nothing apears (no partitions???):confused:

------------

Device Partition List:

----------------------

------------

So, not sure if I should investigate about the PIT problem, in case it's related to the network unlock issue, or if I should ignore it, and backup /efs in a different way... Which direction do you suggest?

Thasnk a lot for your help!!!!!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] stormdude124:
Did you right click and run in administrative mode? It should back it up as a .tar file (btw did you use the older version I posted?)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] albsp15:
Yes... I've tried version you posted running as administrator and in normal mode.... But unfortunately this version does not go further than the first splash screen: "Welcome to EFS Pro, Version 1.9.12 c)Gaz 2012... Initializing, Please, wait.... " (and keeps there..........) :crying:

Maybe I should leave running longer? (I've left it running for more than 10' withouth any movement...)

Rest of commeted tests I ran with the other EFS Pro newer version, as this previous one didn't manage to move after this first spash screen...

Not sure what to do now... :crying:

PS.- BTW: Tried power OFF mobile on flight mode, power-on, switch off flight mode, enter network unlock key... Unsuccessfull... :crying:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] stormdude124:
Hmm... I don't know why its doing that...did you turn on USB debugging on your phone?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] albsp15:
Sorry I could not reply yesterday... Yes: USB debugging was ON (active) (and confirmed on the terminal top menu while connected)..

I've downloaded Titianium again, but I've not found the option to backup EFS...

Do you think it might be happening what yohan4ws commented initially on this thread, and the EFS store point has changed, and that's why, although IMEI is recognised, the mount point has changed and cannot be unlocked by now, neither the EFS mount point identified to backup it?

--------------

> "What happens with AT&T Rom going overtop of rogers is it actually changes your efs to an AT&T efs code where the IMEI store point doesn't > show up in the same place of the file as it did with Rogers. This has been confirmed in my phone (and i lost my imei) and as well in Bubor's."

--------------

I should not have too many problems to perform an EFS backup following any of the initially commented commands:

--------------

su

busybox tar zcvf /sdcard/efs/efs-backup.tar.gz /efs

--------------

su

cat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 > /sdcard/efs/efs_dev-block-mmcblk0p1.img

--------------

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p1 of=/sdcard/efs/efs_dev-block-mmcblk0p1.img

--------------

Probably, if the problem is that the mount point has been overwritten, I might not get a correct backup with commands 2 & 3...

Anyway, I can go for them, and get the EFS backup...however, my main worry would be about how to enter the Network unlock code... if the IMEI store point is changed, not sure how to get it corrected... Maybe I'm completely wrong, and what is happening regarding the network unlock is not related to the EFS store point overlapped?

Thanks!!!!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] albsp15:
:victory::victory::victory:

Got it!!!!!! :good: THANKS!!!!

This is what I've done:

Backuped EFS by using the 3 following methods:

--------------

su

busybox tar zcvf /sdcardDirectory/efs-backup.tar.gz /efs

--------------

su

cat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 > /sdcardDirectory/efs_dev-block-mmcblk0p1.img

--------------

+Copying/tar/gzip with file manager

--------------

Purchased the GalaxSIm Unlock (Ok,.. 3 €, but got my mobile up and running without any additional problem!) :angel:

And now, got the Network phone unlocked ! :victory:

THANKS!!!

Now, please, let me ask one more question: Do you know if I need to install any patch for the camera? (although I installed the baseband you commented me, since updated, it shows some grey lines moving in the screen, and photographs capture the lines)

Thanks a lot!!!!! :good:

PS.- Now I need to find out why I have 2 internal storages (the first one 1.97 G-1.73 free, but the second one, 3,75G-Only 230M available - 2,24 G used as Misc... Looks like used by the "old" applications").. But that's going to be a second step to investigate this week...

Thanks!!!!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] stormdude124:
Oh, i was fixing to recommend backing up your efs with ktool by hellcat on the play store

I'm glad to hear that you got it!

Camera: Try google carmera,I think the latest version doesn't work,but there's plenty of other camera apps on the store

Storage: the 1.97 is your /data partition (where apps install to)

The 3.75 one is your internal SD card-its most likely full because your backup of your old ROM (the folder is called TWRP located in /sdcard0/TWRP. Just backup to your PC and delete it off your phone) Congratulations on your "new" phone xD hope you enjoy it!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] albsp15:
Really Thanks!!! (I got it thanks to your help!) :victory:

I will spend next weeks trying to configure the phone on my way... Probably will manage to get everything as I need, although just in the unlikely case I don't manage to get everything working (I.E.- I've just first tested bluetooth connects correctly to the car, but does not automatically starts the voice, also the physicall keyboard does not work as smooth as before (need to press the Fn key for every number I want to press, while before, just pressing Fn for 2 seconds allowed me to write a sequence of numbers,...) if I need to go back to a previous or different version of Android, the only steps I need to do are:

1.- Rename the baseband file as it was previously (RUXKJ5).

2.- Use TWRP to install a different Android than the CM11 (downloading from your commented page) or even use the TWRP backup to go back to the initial backup I made right after installing TWRP in case I need for whatever reason to go to that early stage.

Is this correct?

Really Thanks!!! (I have a new movile thanks to your help! !:good::good::good:
[Samsung Captivate Glide] stormdude124:
Here's the bug list 4.0.4+

To use google now/VoIP app you need to apply the Skype fix (tinyalsas) every time you make a call just type alsas (to switch open terminal and type:su>alsas) when it says gsm calls engaged you can make phone calls and when it says VoIP calls engaged you can use all sorts off apps no problem. When I use the phone I always kept VoIP mode on until I made a call because incoming calls aren't effected)

Bluetooth headset doesn't work but sound works,transferring files etc.,Bluetooth speaker connection all work just fine :good:

(Bubor's CM11 has this built in so you not have to flash anything just use terminal :cool: )

Yeah, and that little keyboard problem.

---

To revert back to your old ROM (which im sure you wont lol)rename the RUXKJK.bin to UCLJ3.bin and swip the old UCLJ3 originally in the zip,then re-zip it)

Remember you can always hop ROMs from what I posted on my thread

If you want to use google now or any other enhancements you can get everything you need from my thread!

---

No problem,I enjoy helping people :D
[Samsung Captivate Glide] steadfasterX:
I'm not sure but I heard some while ago the same problem and it was after upgrading from Gingerbread to ICS or higher.. the unlock key worked for GB but not for 4.x or at least for 4.2. In my sediROM thread (see my signature) i have a link to the bitflip method to unlock your device without a key. Check out the troubleshooting post or FAQ. It is an advanced method but if you follow the guide and backup you should be safe..

I'm afraid Ididn't read them on time, so, what I did was purchasing the Galaxim Unlock (3€) and that worked quite well (managed to unlock my mobile)...

And also will my Next launcher 3d homepages and widgets and folders etc. backup too?

And how long does it take for apps to be restored?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gdbusby:
Helium will back all that up. Great app
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] G7Baker:
Hey buddy next time Questions go in the Q & A. Not trying to be a Smart a$$. Anyways it will. Just make sir in T.B. that app data is checked. And yes your launcher will back up. You just might have to restore your widgets. It doesn't take that long to restore in T.B. Just depends on how many apps you got. Hope this helps you.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
Advanced search Hopper8's threads to find his 'Odin doesn't flash successfully' thread. There's a bunch of stuff you can try in there.

The only way you're fixing this is if you get the phone to successfully take an Odin flash, unless you want to take it to a service centre where they'll flash the most recent firmware they have to the phone.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xbt-:
I have the previous model of the Nexus 7.

I'm reluctant to upgrade because I read that the back grip isn't as nice and it has more of a plasticy feel.

Additionally I'd like to see if they're going to release a 64GB model.

What do you think of the new model? What are your impressions compared to the previous model?

Please only answer if you upgraded from the previous model.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Garoto1973:
Well I did and the upgrade is worth it if you use your 1st gen a lot and love it . It is a great deal just for the bump in screen quality and speed. Plus old models still sell at a good price on ebay. Although the first gen was by no means slow, I feel this little thing is the fastest android device I have experienced.

I think I will trade this one to get a LTE model. And that takes me to my main gripe. The second gen feels more on the side of a Galaxy Note phone than in competition with an ipad mini so I am confused because I also want a Note 3!

BTW, dont worry about how it feels , IMHO the 2nd gen feels A LOT more high quality than the first gen, it feels PREMIUM not a premium wanna be like the 2012 model.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xbt-:
hmm, well that's good to know!!

only thing, what do you mean by "feels more on the side of"? As is physical touch? Or what?

Thanks for your input.

Only thing, I wish there was 64GB model, and I might also wait for the LTE..
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] slyd0997:
Got $120 for my 1st gen on eBay and paid $199 at staples with $30 off coupon. And it's a beautiful little tablet, waaaaaaayy better than the 1st gen.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] biggggant:
Honestly after 4.3 on 2012 nexus 7 I think its kind of a toss up. There are nice improvements but really only incremental from the 2012. If I didn't want to upgrade from 16gb to 32gb I would probably still have my 2012. Yes the screen is awesome and it does feel nicer in the hand but otherwise its not a big change imo.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] timrock:
i upgraded as well.

i dont think there will be a 64gb version.

I am impressed with the improvements. The screen is way better. Its smoother (the old one was smooth also, but lagged sometimes), i get no lag in chrome. i have had no reboots or freezes. The rear camera is decent. I only use it for scanning. The thinness is great as well. Much easier to hold in one hand. And the led is a good improvement as well.

Things that i think can make it a perfect device, but was not a deciding factor for me:

flash for the rear camera

make the led multi color

These two things would give it a solid 10. So for now, i give it a 9.8

I have owned a xoom, infinite and the previous nexus 7, and this is by far the best and smoothest tablet i have owned.

I rooted it, but kept it stock. I dont think there is a need for a custom rom.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] juicyjones:
Upgraded from the 2012 32gb model to the current 2013 32gb model.

The difference is huge. The most noticeable difference is the screen, it's just a thousand times better in every way than the original N7. Overall the machine is way faster, has wireless charging built-in, way better 3D graphics, is lighter, is thinner, is narrower so it's now easy to hold with one hand, has a passable camera, actually has stereo speakers you can hear and just feels better in the hands generally.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Landara:
I upgraded, with the 20% off web coupon at Office Depot I only paid $195 after tax, sold my old one for 140. Kind of a no-brainer, eh? It feels at least better and often much better in every category. I never find myself thinking the old one was as good or better at anything. Period. So it's a big upgrade across the board. And if you can get as decent amount of cash for your old one, I'd say jump the hell in! But after using it, I decided that even had a simply given my old one to Mom, it STILL would have felt worth it to me paying full price. But this last bit is subjective and YRMV.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] JayceOoi:
+1 :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] player911:
Yea love it. Great upgrade on everything across the board.

I had 2 N7 I sold for $150 a piece. One was free and acquired through a job I did that went unused. Easy decision.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] bailyc:
Concerning the back grip, I would have to admit that I personally prefer the grip of the 2012 model. Even now, if I hold both in my hands, the old grip feels better to me. At first, I did think the new tablet felt cheaper when I took it out of the box. But after having used it for a couple weeks, I don't think that anymore. The lighter weight is actually helpful, making the new tablet just a little easier to hold in one hand, and overall it does feel like a high quality tablet. The experience of using the tablet really is vastly improved, even though the updates seem to be mostly incremental.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] handofendowment:
I really liked the 1st generation nexus. The development community has made that little device a useful little machine. I didn't like the minor upgrades to the processor. They should have put in a snapdragon 600 or 800. Why go with the s4 pro ; o ;. If they did that, this would truly be a next generation device.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] juicyjones:
That's kind of a paper complaint. The new version smokes the crap out of the old one, and practically every other Android device on the market. So it's fast way fast. Just because the processor's name is the wrong one for you means very little.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] kgraves22:
It's brighter, prettier, smoother, and IMO the best 7" tablet on the market

That said, it's even more fragile than its predecessor. I found mine to have a minor hairline fracture down the center of the screen and as a result The entire device is now worthless

ASUS of course is doing nothing except offering a repair for the price of fracking $208 USD!!!

As an early adopter, I was still waiting on my case- it should be in tomorrow. :(

I may just save up and replace it with a Samsung Galaxy Tab. I'm so angry I could scream; if I had dropped it that would be one thing but I did nothing of the sort. It was fine one moment and I pull it out of my pocket and set it on the curb when I notice the screen wasn't working properly. I hold it up to the light and see this tiny hairline fracture and a few similarly sized cracks by the notification LED.

I am willing to sell it to someone that wants to use it with OTG/USB-Host, it is rooted and running TWRP and ElementalX 0.8 kernel if anyone is interested. I also have an original Nexus 7 that has that support through PA 3.15 and franco,Kernel.

Bottom line: A $230 tablet costs far more than $230 even if you are extremely careful. These things are more fragile than any device I have ever owned (and I used to have an HTC First!).

trying to follow those instructions to change from swipe to password lock, but I can't find lockscreen.password_type in the database. In short, here's my problem:

http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/51180/using-adb-to-change-the-screen-lock

I'm trying to change swipe lock to password lock without using the UI. The database is supposed to contain the salt value which I can somehow (how?) use to hash up a default password, and (in theory) overwrite or create the password.key file, thereby changing the password. On my password-protected device, I can neither see lockscreen.password_type nor lockscreen.password_salt in the settings.db:secure table (or in the entire db for that matter). I'm wondering if it's been moved, or if something is wrong with my system.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] jleyden:
I wasn't sure where to post this, since my phone doesn't have a specific forum... I have a Motorola Razr V XT885 running Android 4.0.4 on Virgin Mobile. For the last week it has been rebooting randomly. Normally this would be a minor annoyance, but it has been taking 4 hours to finish booting back up. Today it just died, while charging.

I use the charger that came with the phone and I have tried 2 others, nothing at all. If I plug the phone into my computer it recognizes it and installs drivers. But I get no indication that the phone actually works. No LED light, no phone off charging screen, nothing. I have tried just turning it on, I have tried the power +volume button and I have tried removing the SIM and SD cards. So far nothing has worked....

Can anyone give me any indication as to what might have happened to my phone?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Steven87:
Might be a hardware problem. Take it ti tech service... From what i hear it seems it's not software related...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jleyden:
Got it to power on last night. It's now been stuck at the boot up screen for 8 hours.... If it's a hardware problem I'll just replace it, I've been looking for an excuse to get a new phone anyway.

man i tell you it is night and day differance when im on the internet retardly fast my old gs3 t999 doe not even come close

but now im wondering if anyone has any custom roms for it
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
You can use t999 ROMs
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
But please do yourself a favor and dont just go and start flashing away. Search, read, and learn all the available info on your model before doing anything.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 1milenia:
ive being reeding the info on it ,but want no if anyone has had full success

and what rom they used,the search button is my best friend but no go on info,that ive already read

i now i can use t999 roms but there not complete
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DJ_SpaRky:
I have had good success with CM10.1 nightly since June, now onto CM10.2 nightly.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 1milenia:
did you just flash rom and that was it
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Have you not read the thread I made dedicated to the T999L?

Links in sig, but should be easy to find.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DJ_SpaRky:
Yes, I just flashed CM 10..1/10.2 per instructions, nothing special.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 1milenia:
yes i read the thtread and installed nightly but no lte no connection i was lucky i had a backup on my sd card,thats why i said i searched
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Thats covered in the thread. T999 roms cant usually show lte in the statusbar. You have to stsrt a download and check Network Type under Settings, About Device, Status.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
I think with 4.1.2 tw ROMs it should show it, I tried it with an at&t s3 and it showed lte on statusbar, but not with 4.1.1 it would connect to it but just show 4g.. Of course idk if its different with the t-999l
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
At&t has lte, so their roms will have the ability to display it. The T999 isnt capable of lte, so its roms have no need to show it in the statusbar
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
No I mean I flashed a T-Mobile ROM on at&t s3
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DJ_SpaRky:
This. Mine showed "4G" on the bar, when I checked the Status page (the one that Doc is referring to) it showed LTE.

Like this:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Ok, I gotcha now! Sorry I misunderstood what you were saying. Perhaps youre right about 4.1.2 then.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
4G is lte on aosp/cm/aokp on tw it shows 4G on 3g and hspa

No problem :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Either way, it boils down to this. On a T999L you will get LTE if its available in your area. Whether or not is shows this in the statusbar is just rom dependant, but you will still get LTE.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 1milenia:
cool all i want to do with my tmobile galaxy s3 lte is install a t999 custom rom that works with the t999l because the lte model has no roms yet,but if the t999 are compatable with no issue ill flash away,

just wanted to no if anyone had success and what was there procedure

the lte is incredibly fast night and day compared to the t999
