[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaiderWill:
I owned a Nexus-7 2013.. Took it back on the 15th day.. (Walmart) They're a lot of issues going on with the N7.. GPS being the main one.. And there are some bad ones out in the field.. So be warned. I was lucky and got a good one, but it just did not justify the price (32 Gb) $294.00 out the door.. for the size of the Tablet for me.. I also own an iPad Mini.. and the 7" Screen of the N7 just was not cutting it for me after being exposed to the 8" 4:3 Screen of the iPad Mini for the last year or so.. The N7 just seem too small.. lots of development for it.. but for me they were the same ROMs I was running on my recently sold Galaxy Note.. so they were Quite Boring and offered nothing new. Then I spotted this Tablet and the Beautiful Saturated Colors and it's 8" Screen won me over on 1st sight.. You got a bad Tablet.. You should just do a Factory Reset Wipe everything and go back to how the Tablet was when it came out of the box. if it's still laggy.. Return it and try another Tab 3 8.0 or something else. Mine was fast out of the box .. is now rooted and still smokes.. have you tried a different launcher? have you gone into developer options and adjusted your animations for faster response...?

No issues with my Tab 3 8.0 either.. :cool:

I think this is about the Tab 3 "8.0" but you are correct... the Asus would be a better choice when comparing to the Tab 3 7.0.. IMO.. :cool:

Sell what you got for $150.00... Then buy the Asus.

You are still cutting someone a deal if your unit is still in "Like New" Condition.. :cool:
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vladmaster98:
Speed

Mine is rooted and still is quite responsive.

Speed wise it was not as fast as the Note 8.0 but it is only dual core!

Ran Antutu on Note 8.0 and tab 3 before buying tab 3 8.0

note was 16,000 and tab 12,000

Where as my mtk6569 Note 5.5' clone came in at 16,138.

my old mtk6575 was around 9,000 from memory. But it has gone to the gods RIP.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rumatt:
This is potentially misleading. It's the same clock rate processor. For many tasks the Tab 8 is just as fast as the Note 8. Exactly the same speed.

Where a quad core will shine over a dual core is when you're trying to do lots of stuff at once. The main area I noticed a difference is something like loading a huge web page and trying to scroll while it's still loading. Lots of stuff happening at the same time there so more processors makes a clear difference.

But for basic, one at a time tasks where there's not much parallelism to be found, there isn't much noticeable performance difference.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] negrobembon:
I don't know if the '8 is that much different, but my tab 3 10.1 is among the speediest i' ve ever used(tablets)

Has anyone tried this I9500XWUBMG7. Seems to have a later build number than the latest India INU firmware
[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
Hi,

I am living in Thailand. I just checked right now and "the number of roll-out updates has been exceeded." It means that i have to update via KIES like last time.

I will install and report.
[Galaxy S 4 General] cheetah2k:
Cool! I'm going to try it tonight. Will be interested to hear back if its a stock rom without any extra apps, and if the UI is quick :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] cmd512:
Need a Google Drive link, this Hotfile download is awful.
[Galaxy S 4 General] jlevy73:
I installed it last night and really no noticeable difference to me between MG7 and the latest India FW. Been super busy with work so haven't put it through it's paces yet. Will report back when I test it more.
[Galaxy S 4 General] lecomiquelin:
This firmware is a bit faster than others, and the smearing issue is almost fixed!!!!
[Galaxy S 4 General] carlosm15:
the best firmware so far.. i like the look of the bounce effect in the volume levels, i feel the device more cold, more fast
[Galaxy S 4 General] tclocki:
Any one kind enough to post this somewhere else other than hotfile please? :(
[Galaxy S 4 General] zekurosu:

[Galaxy S 4 General] Rahulrulez:
Wow. Will flash tomorrow!

It has been there in previous version.

It is there in MG1.

[Galaxy S 4 General] plasmastate:
So no real changes yet? Anyone able to confirm any decent change compared to MG5 Indian? still waiting for some feedback. Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 General] cmd512:
No noticeable changes. Anyway saying otherwise is spouting placebo.
[Galaxy S 4 General] shanesitt@gmail.com:
It is has the Myanmar Language support...That's all changes:laugh:
[Galaxy S 4 General] rramoutar:
The only difference I have noticed is my phone seems to be running a bit warmer. I'll keep it... I was on the Indian rom before.
[Galaxy S 4 General] lecomiquelin:
How can I know what languages that this firmware have, guys?
[Galaxy S 4 General] plasmastate:
It's very easy. You just have to flash the firmware :p. Jk. It does have English though.
[Galaxy S 4 General] body150165:
I updated and didn't find any changes. I guess they are under the hood.

Supported languages:

Bahasa malaysia

bahasa indonesia

[Galaxy S 4 General] jamy_hallian:
Can someone please tell how can I know which firmware is newer as in BMG1 , BMG5 , BMG5, BMG9 ? How can I find out which firmware is the latest? Thanks.

Oh and one more thing, I am running Indian firmware bmg5 right now, can I flash this bmg7 over it? Will I need to factory reset my device after installing this Thailand firmware? And does this firmware improve the camera launch lag issue ?
[Galaxy S 4 General] 0mega007:
Here you can check: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2257645

Higher changelist number means newer version
[Galaxy S 4 General] jamy_hallian:
What about the camera lag issue ?
[Galaxy S 4 General] jlevy73:
One big improvement I have noticed is that battery life with this kernel is excellent. Deep sleep @96%, using stock kernel.
[Galaxy S 4 General] mashaal95:
Please Post On Google Drive, or ANYTHING!

Hotfile is taking ages to download the thing! Can someone please upload this rom on google drive? :)
[Galaxy S 4 General] plasmastate:
Nice to know. Which firmware have you updated from ?
[Galaxy S 4 General] cheetah2k:
I started having random issues with this firmware, even after a wipe:

1. Random reboots.. Not sure what is triggering this one. I'm totally 100% stock, not many apps, not rooted or any custom recovery. Started happening around 2 hrs after flashing and continued to happen randomly over the next 2-3 days.

2. Graphical glitches in camera when viewing mode tips (they display garbled text with "force GPU to render 2D" on) - have found this with all Thai, Malay and Singapore FW since MEA. Disabling the force GPU to render 2D fixes the bug 100% of the time - but that's no fun!

3. Antutu results in the 25,000-26,000

I've flashed back to the MG5 India INU rom. Still the best Rom IMO - no issues what so ever.
[Galaxy S 4 General] jlevy73:
MG5 INU

---------- Post added at 08:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:06 AM ----------

1. Strange, also on stock MG7, rooted and everything has been rock solid.

2. Force GPU rendering is known to cause graphical glitches, especially with apps that already enable opengl 2.0 (my assumption is the camera is one of them)
[Galaxy S 4 General] cheetah2k:
Agreed force GPU can cause issues with some apps, but tell me why I've had no issues with any of the india INU roms?

or just use lgpwn, that's what i did, and u can easily unroot by going into settings on supersu (of course download it off of playstore) and click "Uninstall root Perminantly" or something like that and boom, you're unrooted. And the best part about it is you can go back to root whenever you want and do the same process to get unrooted and you won't damage your device. :)
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] SubjectToReplay:
I'm not trying to unroot, simply needed the stock System and Meta-Inf files.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] SubjectToReplay:
Any one?.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Nathan.7118391:
You are asking for the whole ROM, just download the kdz or cwm backup.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] SubjectToReplay:
Will I be able to extract the System and Meta-Inf files? It's only two little files.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] Nathan.7118391:
Sure but you might need a manager to do it. I created an update.zip file from titanium backup and extracted the meta-inf from there. . .
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] artit:
So you need stock files or just any flashable zip file to get its content? If you want later please download from http://d-h.st/T63
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] SubjectToReplay:
Does anyone have just the stock files? I'm not the best when it comes to kdz's, and the last flashable zip I found wasn't extractable. This is what I'm trying to undo.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] G-man:
I just got a new XDA IIi and when I put my Orange SIM in, it does not connect to the network.

If I use a Vodaphone SIM, it connects & gets excellent signal strength. If I make a call it hangs up by itself after dialing. If I try to call it, it goes to Voicemail.

I will try an O2 SIM on the weekend to see what that does.

I used itsme's xdaunlock tool and that said it unlocked the phone but didn't change the problems described above.

Any ideas anyone?

I tried an 02 simm on the weekend and still not working. I take it into an O2 shop and ask them.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] joshuagalipeau:
I was thinking earlier today about what is to come in the future of android. I am thinking that 5.0 key lime pie (if google even decides to call it that) will be card based with a new style launcher that will change everything people think about when they hear the word android. I think it's going to be a huge update.

I want to know what everyone else thinks that 5.0 is going to be like.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DMF1977:
Probably be like 5 years before it's released, after the final release of jellybean 4.9.9!!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] shortydoggg:
The S4 was promised updates up to Key Lime Pie, so it will either be late this year or some time next year; but it likely won't be the first phone to receive it.

Soo jw does anyone know for sure when the sprint s3 will be getting an update and will it be jellybean 4.2.2 or 4.3?

Its pretty bad that the s2 is on the same as the s3 both only having 4.1.2
[General Questions and Answers] skiafolife:
So I'm running out of space and most of it is just junk I don't use anymore so I want to do a complete reset. I tried a factory reset but that didn't delete anything it just cleared it from that rom. So I tried deleting all the roms I had made backups of (except for the one I was on) and then I did a factory reset but same result as before... Does anyone know how I can completely get rid of everything?

I have the android tweaker app made by the creators of jellybam rom and was wondering how I should set up the network part of it I have the rest setup the way I want it just want to know about the network section I think that I should just check them all to help boost signal any help?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MofroShow:
I recently just rooted my phone and was wondering if anyone has any unique adjustments that they have done now that they couldn't before.

Not the usual preferences/setting stuff, but things with Tasker and other worthwhile root apps.

Screenshot is of what I have right now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graydiggy:
There are tons of tutorials here. Use Google or the search function.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MofroShow:
I'll check those out, I was just looking for the best of the best tweaks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graydiggy:
All tweaks vary by device. What I have running on my S4 may not run well on yours. Yo have to find what works for you.

Also, we have no idea what firmware you are on. If you are on MF3, I personally suggest staying away from tweaks. Since there is no custom recoveries for MF3 here is no real way to fix anything that gets borked unless you can ADB and know exactly what got messed up. A tweak or mod can be very beneficial or can brick a device.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] erikalin:
I don't think he has the S4 or MF3... he has an Epic 4G Touch, and custom recoveries are not an issue. I am totally with you on staying away from tweaks anyway. :good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MofroShow:
Cool. I'll keep it simple then

Thanks for the advice.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graydiggy:
Crap. Was thinking of other things and got lost in the forums. I bounce between both the E4GT and S4 sections.

Scratch what I said about firmware OP. But remember what I said about tweaks being different per device. Find what works.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superbdogmagee:
Hi,

I put a pin on my galaxy s2 lockscreen when I was drunk and couldn't remember it in the morning - oops! I really do not want to hard reset. I'd be happy to hard reset if I could backup all of my data, however I can't connect via kies (is this because it's locked?). Windows recognises the device and it pops up in windows explorer but I can't access any of the files (I assume this is due to the phone being locked?).

Is it possible to backup all of my data when the phone is locked?

I believe I'm using ICS, I haven't applied the latest OS update.

I have rooted my phone, not sure if usb debugging is on or off because it seemed to turn itself off randomly. Is there a way to tell remotely?

I found various supposed fixes around the net but none seemed to work:

1. I found some adb trick that you can supposedly use to wipe the pin but I can't seem to connect via adb shell.

2. I tried logging into my gmail and pushing various no lock aps to the phone but they didnt seem to have any impact.

3. Androidlost wouldn't register.

4. I can't click the emergency call button, nothing happens - maybe a bug with the root process I used?

Can anyone suggest anything else?

So frustrating!

Cheers.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
In one word, no. Time to bite the bullet (and contemplate how you should have backed stuff up regularly because it takes 5 minutes to avoid this situation in the first place).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GamingDj:
Do you have ICS 4.0.4? If so,then don't even think about doing a factory reset(see eMMC bug).Flash 4.1.2 via odin,then do a factory reset in recovery.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
A cousin of mine came with a similar issue. But he had an unrooted S2 running stock GB. He simply wanted his contacts back.

So what I did was root it using siyah kernel, reboot to cwm recovery, created a nandroid backup and then did a full wipe to remove the PIN. Then, after extracting contacts data from the nandroid, I restored them by rooting his phone again. Then, made a backup of contacts to SD card. Next, I flashed GB via odin, did a full wipe and then restored the contacts! Phew.. :)

I find it interesting that you have done what you say to your phone, yet you just created an account here and this is your only post. Obviously just to ask this question. Not judging or anything, but usually when people ask something like this, it means the phone is stolen. Just odd in my opinion. Best thing I can tell you is to carry your phone to your service provider, they can fix that problem very easy.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superbdogmagee:
I'm not sure what version I'm running, can I tell from CWM? I know that it's not the latest version as it tried to automatically update itself and it failed as it is rooted. What would be the problem doing a factory reset if it's running 4.0.4? Wouldn't a factory reset just restore it to the original firmware version?

I've extracted a backup of the files via CWM, all I'm really after is my photos (hopefully they are on the SD card), my contacts and my message and call logs. Is it an easy thing to extract my message and call logs from the backups?

I've called my service provider and they can't do anything, they told me to speak to samsung who in turn told me I need to send it to a repair centre.

As for it being 'interesting' that this is my only post here, I've never had cause to post here, I'm not interested in development and I know very little about it, hence I need assistance. If I stole the phone why would I care if I had to factory reset?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GamingDj:
If you have 4.0.4,then don't do a Factory reset.eMMC bug=your phone will never power on again,and you can buy a RIFF box or a new mobo.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kthomson205:
Ok , here's why what you are asking is questionable to me: you put a lockscreen PW on your phone, you can carry it to whatever carrier you have's store, and they can unlock it for you so you can get your data back. Don't call them, of course they're going to blow you off. Plus, where are your pictures? Every phone I've had has saved them, by defaukt , to the ext-sd card. That will not be affected by a factory reset, even if it saved to internal, as I have done so myself countless times. Also, its kind of strange that you came to xda to ask this, since you say your phone is rooted. Due to the fact that pretty much everyone who has rooted/customized their phone, has had to do so by receiving some kind of help from a site/forum. So, why did you come here? Why didn't you go to where you learned what you know about android/your phone to ask this? Why not just go to your local store? Also, you sat you don't know what version you have. You said you rooted your phone, and know about adb, quite a lot to know for some one who doesn't even know what android version they have. Anyway, I think I made my point. I'm done, I dont think I need to go on anymore. I'm not the only one who has noticed how fishy your story sounds, and I am quite noobish, compared to the majority of this site. If it wasn't so obvious, I would help you.

How I rooted

I rooted my phone via youtube, it's pretty easy to do, you don't need developer help. I previously had a jailbroken iphone and I've done basic software design.

Data I want

My photos are probably on the sdcard - I haven't checked yet but that doesn't help my contacts and sms.

Why would I want this data if it was stolen?

If I stole the phone I would just do a factory reset wouldn't I? Why would I care about my contacts, photos and sms?

Android version

I don't know what version of android I'm on because I rooted it about 6 months ago and I'm not really into phones or apps. I rooted it because the last time I updated the OS it wiped my mini notes information where I took down a whole bunch of information - I was told rooting would allow me to retrieve the information. It didn't.

Provider and samsung no help

I have called my provider and they gave me the puck code because they misinterpreted my question, when I clarified that it was the lockscreen they said I need to call samsung. Samsung said I need to send it away for 'repair'.

At the moment I'm trying two avenues

1. androidlost

I pushed androidlost to my phone via google play but it requires 'registration'. Obviously I can't register it via the app in the phone, you can apparently do it remotely by sending an sms to the phone - I have failed to get this working for some reason.

2. sqlite3 modification

Apparently you can modify the lockscreen file and disable it via adb and sqlite3.

I've pushed sqlite to my phone but when I try the commands in adb it says file not found.

Any ideas?

SOLVED

For anyone else in the same boat as me, please see this post for a possible solution:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2244741

I tried method one via CMW in recovery mode but it did not work for me.

Method 2 worked for me. I loaded recovery mode, loaded CWM and through that loaded aroma file manager and used the console within AROMA then typed in the commands:

cd data/system

rm *.key

*I had to MOUNT data in CWM in order to access anything in the data folder.

Using normal adb shell through your computer etc you might have to do the full thing as detailed in the post

adb devices

adb shell

cd data/system

su

rm *.key
