[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tluley51:
So I am posting this for a coworker. A little background on me, I have been rooting and romming since my Droid X (what a pain that was) so I like to think that I am not too noobish and know what I am doing. I currently have a GS4 rooted and rommed running Hyperdrive and I love it, no issues at all.

A coworker came to me with a stock, bloated up GS3 and wanted me to unlock and root it. I took an afternoon and did it for him, installed TWRP and ran a backup of the stock, rooted rom and said have a field day looking into flashing roms and kernels and such. He started reading up on it and got around to flashing CarbonROM (used to run it on my Gnex, loved it). After a few hours, he texted me and said he was getting reboots. The first thing that came to mind was maybe he forgot to wipe everything or something, so I instructed him to factory reset a few times and make sure it gets wiped clean. He did and reflashed and still was getting them. He then tried LiquidSmooth. Same results...I then instructed him to try going back to a TW based rom and he tried out Hyperdrive. Still same results. I tried to do some searching and I am out of ideas. I saw that sometimes Nova launcher can throw fits which I did install on there for him, but the last few times he said he was not using it. We tried a few different kernels as well, still no luck. Should I try and get the phone back to a stock, unrooted state and retry? Or is it a defective device maybe? It WAS a refurb sent back from Verizon as he was having issues a few weeks back and they had to send a replacement. Should I unroot it and get it to stock and have him return it? Any help would be awesome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
I'd say use odin to flash stock and see if he has any more reboots. If he does its defective. Even now I think its defective.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] tluley51:
My thoughts exactly. I think I am going to give that a try. Thanks. Any other ideas appreciated too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wwonka69:
What kernel is he running?

I find certain kernels don't work well with my phone and will cause random rebooting.

My advice is to flash a different kernel.

Peace
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jjaeger:
This is the coworker. I had originally used the stock kernel, then switched to Zeus. Both kernels had the same issues. Ended up unrooted it and finding a whole slew of problems with the stock phone. Brought it back to be replaced with a new device. No refurbs allowed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hking0036:
Also, what version of carbon is he using? I flashed 1.8 and it did a lot of random rebooting. 1.7 is more stable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jjaeger:
I was using 1.8. I think I had around other issues with Carbon beyond why issues my phone has in general. For example, as I am typing this, the screen is wigging out with random flashes like it's going to crash. Yay.

Tip for the future: beware of refurbs....

Okay, so before i go ahead and post this, I'm well aware of where i should be posting it, but i'm apparently a new member and therefore cannot post in the HTC One Development section.

I'm using the T-Mobile HTC One (M7_ul) and i wanted to convert into the Google Play Edition. I took the OTA update from t-mobile that bumped me up to 1.27.531.11, and it took me about an hour to realize that t-mobile decided to block all ways to s-off with that update, and that i would somehow have to get back to .8. My bootloader is unlocked, with TWRP 2.5.0.0. and root. I flashed the Stock Sense 5 1.27.531.8 rom (although rather buggy, i keep getting errors with the phone program abruptly stopping, but its not an issue seeing as im not staying with this rom). Im under the assumption that if i did that, as long as my hboot was still 1.44, i'd be able to use Moonshine or revone to s-off. I tried both, and neither of them were a go. I keep getting an Error-2 with revone, and moonshine gets to Moonshining (10) and then says Error: dont drink and shine. Now i'm not a complete noob when it comes to unlocking and rooting HTC devices, but ive never decided to take that extra step to s-off. everytime i think i have it right, moonshine and revone give me errors. would someone please tell me what im doing wrong, or at least point me in the right direction? please?

Your phone was updated to .11 it's more than just the Rom that was updated, you just gotta wait. I do too my phone came with .11.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
I see. so if i'm understanding you correctly, I can't just flash the .8 rom and do s-off, T-Mobile patched it and im screwed?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grim489:
Yeah that's it, I've read that one person has got it to work but idk if they actually took the ota or not. There would be a workaround if we had an RUU for .7 or .8 but we don't. So I guess we just gotta wait for someone to figure something out.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
Oh god I hope that day comes soon. I'm so tired of this menu bar....I'm tired of Sense 5 period. I want my stock android with it's's back :(

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grim489:
You could use HTC dev unlock until then though, just reset everything when s-off does come? That's what I've done and I'll just use s-off to make it look like nothing when (hopefully) it comes around again
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
This post seems to have eluded me. It doesn't matter at this point, because there's no link in the post for a T-Mobile RUU
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
I'm unlocked already, I'd just really rather convert completely to the GPE using the mid/cid change method, so if HTC decides to upgrade the One to KLP when its released, I won't have to go back to stock Sense 5 to get the OTA
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
ask (in the thread not via pm)the author of that guide if flasking a firmware package + stock rom would do and what other steps you would need to take

you can find the firmware packages here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2355814
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
It says in the op that the firmware zips are unsigned, which means I would have to be S-off to flash them.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
those firmwares in that thread are official and signed, so that's why I think you could have a chance of getting it working

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
so updating all you fellas, no method i tried worked :mad: I managed to find a stable rom for 1.27.531.7. my thought process was to flash to .7, unroot, reflash stock recovery, relock the bootloader, and try to install the .8 OTA. Didnt work. I tried to bypass, got the OTA .zip from my storage, rebootRUU and flash the OTA firmware. Didnt work either. The progress bar hung at about 75%(i tried this 6 times, same result). so i unlocked the bootloader again, reflashed twrp 2.5.0.0 and had planned on just restoring the nan i made. I didnt realize that when you flash a RUU, even if it doesnt finish, it still formats your /sd/data, so backup was gone, by this point i had already done the wipe expecting it to be there, so through all this, i ended up stuck in twrp with no OS, and for some reason the ADB sideload feature didnt work so i couldnt push a .zip to the phone. after an hour and a half of frantically searching, i just decided to run the .11 official RUU, so after 14 hours, im back to where i started. Wayyyyy more trouble than its worth. just gonna flash a stock rooted 4.3 GPE rom, and when HTC and T-Mobile decide to stop screwing around and push the 4.2.2 update, ill just reflash the RUU.

Thanks for all the help, gents.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgtiii:
Dude, you were doing some serious stuff to your phone, you have to slow down a little. I recommend reading as much as you can before you attempt anything you just did. The reason I am saying this is that, when flashing firmware, the progress bar always sticks at about 75%, that is normal, then you reboot and it finishes the install. You probably got that firmware from the OTA you're talking about installed and didn't know it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
I let it reboot completely about 5 times, and checked the fw version each time. i promise you i didnt get it. I know the bar hanging on the OTA is normal, i had plenty of learning experience with that on the One V
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
you can't flash an ota.zip unless you are completely stock and on the correct version otherwise it will fail
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
And therein lied the problem. I thought if i flashed a "stock" but rooted .7 rom, reflashed to stock recovery, unrooted, and relocked, i could flash the .8 official OTA.

Nope.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
I never really did otas but isn't the firmware package inside the ota? anyway I think maybe the author of that guide I pointed you to earlier might have some ideas
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
Exactly, but the problem is that the firmware package is officially Signed, so if you're running a custom rom, even if it is the version that the OTA succeeds, if you're not S-OFF, it won't pass the security verification, and fail.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godutch:
I think if you are on a stock older rom follow, the guide and flash the firmware.zip instead of the rom.zip you could reach an s-offable state again.

There are some guides to return to stock, not all of them require you to have an ruu, an ruu is the fastest and easiest way but not the only way
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
I tried that. I already took the .11 update. So I unlocked and flashed .7 to upgrade using rebootRUU and flashing just the firmware.zip. Signature Verify Fail
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grim489:
You can do that I've done the .7 nandroid and ota upgraded to .8. It changes the hboot to a may date instead of June but there's still something else that has been changed. The first time I did it I thought I had figured something out but trying s-off Still didn't work. But that was just through stock recovery not rebootRUU.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
So did you solve this little problem? im currently on .7 unrooted, locked, and stock recovery, trying to flash the firmware.zip
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grim489:
Nah man I'm just waiting hopefully for an update of revone or moonshine. I noticed opendsp doesn't revert though. Idk if that has anything to do with s off not working but I'm guessing it probably doesn't.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xeyesofthousandx:
I'm not getting any of this. I restored a Nand of .7 stock.

unrooted, stock recovery, and relocked.

Why can't i take the OTA through recovery, or flash the firmware.zip using rebootRUU

its driving me f***ing crazy.

please help me before i throw my phone.

EDIT: You know what, screw it. they just announced that all U.S. HTC One devices are skipping 4.2.2 and going straight to 4.3, set to release in October. Too much work, too many failures, i can wait.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grim489:
Are you missing flashlight calculator soundhound apps? Some apps the ota checks for or it will fail. Don't throw your phone though! I'm pretty sure revone will give you error 6 though :/

Hello all. I'm new to registering on here, but I've been using ROMs and other resources off this site for a while and have the utmost respect for what goes on here. As the title suggests, this post is in regards to the Project X ROM, specifically to its installation instructions. It says:

While there isn't anything specifically wrong with this instruction, I wanted to note a problem I ran into when recently installing this ROM. That is that the recovery menus for these kernels expect you to use the camera button as enter. My phone (Samsung Galaxy S2 D710BST) does not have a camera button, and therefor I am unable to press it to enter selections, and the power button did not work either. I ended up using Agat63's recovery kernel from Rwilco12's Repository and was able to install without any problems.

Hope this info is helpful to someone, and not terribly redundant. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Volume up, volume down, volume up, volume down... Then you can press the power button to select.

On mine EL26 and EL29 you have to use the home button to select, however, if you press both volume buttons together it disables this (may take a couple tries) and let's you use the power button

Yeah if you use volume up and down a few times you can use the power button to select..

I've been wondering....

1. Is there any really close 4.2.2 or 4.3 TouchWiz rom's yet that have S-Apps on it yet?

2. If not what is the best, or closest TouchWiz-esque 4.2.2 or 4.3 rom?

I just just feel like all CM, AOK/SP roms feel naked Without TouchWiz or S-Apps, yes I know there's some alternative S-Apps for CM, AoK/SP roms.

3. Has anyone thought of trying to incorporate ChameleonOS With TouchWiz like the MyMiUi?

4. And there really still is no sign or mention of a Official Sammy 4.2.2 or 4.3 for us yet is there?

I wanna upgrade to 4.2.2 or 4.3, but I don't wanna TouchWiz and keep looking at my rom/phone feeling like something is lacking or missing from it.

Hello,

I was wondering if someone could help me. I recently installed the Google Edition 4.2.2 Rom for my Sprint S4.

I noticed that on the lock screen there is no option to swipe up to Google Now. There is also no option on the homescreen to swipe up from the application button to Google Now. Is this not a stock feature for jellybean?

I remember I installed stock jellybean on my old s3 a while back, and on the lock screen I could set the swipe to - swipe left for camera, - swipe up for google now, - swipe right to unlock. Is this not a stock feature?

Any help would be greatly appreciated...thank guys!

Not that it's any help to your question but I found that I constantly was accidently opening up Google Now on my Nexus 7 so much so that I installed an app to disable the function.

Really becomes annoying games.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] maxpower7:
B-Dub25's rom is a port of the stock rom from the Google Play Edition of this phone. Although the UI is pure AOSP, the rom itself is based on TW framework and uses the TW kernel.

Dubbsy's rom is ported from an existing Verizon rom which he has updated with Sprint radios. It's almost pure AOSP and has no underlying TW framework. It's not a "Google Edition" rom.

You can access Google Now in B-Dub25's rom by double clicking the home button. You can access Google Now in Dubbsy's rom by long pressing the home button. Neither of them feature the "swipe up for Google Now" option because neither of them use onscreen navigation buttons like Nexus devices do.

You can add "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" to the end of the build.prop on either rom to enable onscreen buttons and the option to swipe up for Google Now.

EDIT: I don't know what I was thinking. The methods I described (double click home in B-Dub25's rom, long press home in Dubbsy's rom) are how you access the multitasking menu. Google Now is a long press of the home button in B-Dub25's rom, and I'm not sure about Dubbsy's rom. I should probably just stop.

My N7 doesnt seem to have any problems at this point (one week old). Battery life is awesome, no GPS problems, no shutdowns mutli-touch, or pixel issues. I was about to root it on day three, but I ran into driver issues and just said f**k it for now. So after a week, I dont think I need to tempt fate and mess with a problem-free unit. I always root my devices so I can use TB, Ad free, wireless tether etc. but for the most part I root for the custom kernels/ROMs for better performance and battery life. Since the battery/speed is already great, and I dont have a bunch of Sense/Touchwiz crap to remove, I think Ill just stay stock with this device.
