[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xiyuo:
the s3 has a couple partitions that have no filesystem.

in log files their filesystems are named as emmc.

the device is able to boot from this partitons(recovery, bota0, bota1)

my question is. how to get access to the files on this partitions?

i tried to mount the recovery partition after copy it with dd on a ubuntu system,

but no chance. response was something like: give me a filesystem.

Hello,

This might be a repetitive question but I couldn't find an exact answer.

Through the research I've done, so far I know that I should S-off my device first and then update my RUU to get android 4.3 on my device.

I am S-on and on hboot 1.11. Using clean rom right now. I'm a noob in this and have no idea abt details.

I bricked my phone once and don't want to do it again.

So, For S-off should I follow facepalm method and then should I update my RUU?? The cingular one??

Also, if anyone has a video on s-off it would be great. I can follow it easily.

Thanks. Any help will be appreciated.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You have it right. Get s-off first, then run the RUU. The facepalm method is the only method for s-off and you don't really need s video, you just need to follow the instructions, it's very easy. If you're with at&t then the Cingular RUU is the right one for you. After the RUU you'll need to flash TWRP recovery again.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] saagar_mistry:
Thanks for the quick reply. I'm with Rogers. Live in canada. I guess they're both the same right??

And after I run RUU, is my phone still going to be rooted or do I have to do all that again?

Also, I found this link online to run RUU, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZuAjz4PIjU

Can you please check and tell me, if I should do the same or not? Go to fastboot and command prompt stuff??

One more thing. S-off says I need superCID? I have no idea what that is. How do I check for that?

Sorry for all the questions but I can't lose the phone again.

Thanks again.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RollTribe:
To run the RUU, all you need to do is plug in you s-off'd phone and run it. No additional steps are required.

For superCID, first go into bootloader and run.

fastboot oem readcid.

Tell us what it says.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] saagar_mistry:
I tried the S-off method but got error 99 instead of error 92.

I think I don't have supercid. Any idea how I should install that!???
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] RollTribe:
Try this.

fastboot oem writecid 11111111

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] saagar_mistry:
It shows read failed. too many links.

Also shows no device attached. My usb is attached. I'm in bootloader and it shows fastboot usb.

Still shows no device attached. :(
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Super CID. Use ADB.

adb shell
su
echo -ne "11111111" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=1 seek=20

If you don't follow procedure or try things without knowing the current state of your phone, you're on a fast track to a second brick. I am only warning you because you seem to care whether you brick or not.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] saagar_mistry:
Thanks for the reply!

And yes I don't want to brick it again. I'll leave the phone as it is. I don't think I should proceed with S-off. I downloaded the ADB bundle stuff but gonna stop here. lol.

Anyways. Thanks a lot for help, all of you guys! :)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] dubbz82:
S-Off isn't so difficult, but at least you know where to draw a clear line on when to stop messing with the phone, unfortunately a lot of people don't really know when they are in over their heads.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] scrizo:
As long as you can read and follow directions you will be ok. I suggest reading material on what you are doing to your phone, and if what you're doing is beneficial for it. If you read and don't understand then wait until you do so you don't brick your phone.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] mike freegan:
Hey guys, I know :? at there's been threads on this before, but the forum search doesn't work for me :\

Did anyone find a way to stop screen coming on when sms is recieved. It's really annoying. I remember reading something about editing the registry.

Another handy thing would be a way to unmap the buttons while MP10 is playing a song. I think you could on the old MP9, but on the media player 10 you can't map the shortcut buttons :\
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jaburk:
Is there currently a way to toggle LTE on/off on the ATT S4? It really pisses me off that ATT hides the phone menu that allows you to do this. I don't want to root my phone, I just want to have the ability to toggle LTE off when I am in areas with weak or no LTE.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Duffmantp:
1. Your phone will switch from 4g to LTE when the signal picks up or lessens.

2. *#*#4636#*#* then Device Info, and change your Radio to GSM/CDMA (PRL)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] FourPointedFreak:
This is very useful to know, thank you!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] chocodough:
Actually you want to choose "WCDMA Preferred" and not "GSM/CDMA" if you are using a GSM network.

That way it will use HSPA+ and not LTE. I use it every morning when I wake up cause I am on the outer boundary of LTE coverage with barely 2 bars, and full bars of HSPA.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evoplug:
My friend has an android att phone and whenever he puts his simcard in it it freezes his account. Is there any way to maybe unlock the phone to were it will let him use his att sim? The phone is not rooted. Any help would be well appreciated.

Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shimp208:
Just to make sure I'm not missing something, your friend has an ATT phone and his account get's frozen when he tries to put in another ATT SIM or a SIM from a different carrier? If it freezes his account when putting in another ATT SIM in his ATT phone then I would recommend contacting ATT and explaining what is happening to them as that's a network operator error. If the phone freezes his account when putting in another SIM from a non ATT carrier then what you can do is ask ATT for a SIM unlock code or if you tell me what model your friends phone is there places online you can buy a SIM unlock code you can enter yourself on your friends phone. Let me know if you still have questions.

So, I just got my replacement phone from Verizon. My WiFi stopped working so I called and they sent me another one. I turned it on and it was MDK. I just rooted it and installed TWRP. The only issue is that I had to turn my phone off because it started downloading ME7.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
Like new certified?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cell128:
I got a replacement about a month ago too also mdk build. They sent me everything including the box and accessories too. I'm preety sure its new.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Matt4542:
Nah dude, it was a brand new phone that VZW sent me. At least that's what the rep told me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Southern_mind:
I got a replacement about a month ago 32gb but it had me7
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Denvertoad:
MDK it is

Just received my replacement for an overheating S4. Hell yeah, MDK. Hello root, goodbye bloat.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
ordered in a replacement from Verizon asurion for overheating.

Does anyone know if it's like new cert or actually new.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] anthony92170:
only the 16gb is still being sent with mdk any 32gb replacements will have me7 only i have a 16 they were supposed to send me a 32gb but didnt have any and they sent 4 to me all on me7 from start so i am keeping my 16 but having them send a 64gb card
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Matt4542:
I know that the Verizon warranty replacement I received was a brand new phone. I'm pretty sure Asurion are refurbished.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
Verizon uses asurion as well as they're corporate insurance. Only time you really go to asurion is if you're damaged or lost. For warranty replacement verizon can deal with it. I called verizon 611 and did it tonight. We'll see what I get tomorrow.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thecrunked:
just to confirm. i had to replace my phone about 2 weeks ago cause my wifi and bluetooth stopped working. i got what appeared to be a brand new device with no back or battery and it was running MDK. not sure if it was used, but if it was, who cares, its in perfect condition. also they said my replacement would take 5-7 business days (i went on a friday evening around 5 or 6 at night) and it showed up the next day at like 5pm on a saturday.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
They always overnighted me devices. If it's just the device and nothing else it's a refurb. You can also tell by looking at the back sticker. It's obvious.

Refurbs do suck. Depending. They're refurbished for a reason. They had issues
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Billabonged:
I forgot to mention mine is rooted. Will they take it if I go into the store? What if I call?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Matt4542:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2301259

If you're on ME7 you have to use ME7, but if you're on MDK use MDK. This will set it back to stock.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
Got a mdk today. New not refurb too. To tell look at sticker on back compare to OEM non refurb.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jlrogers:
Just got a mdk replacement!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] gqxcasanova:
Called CS tech support and they told me I need to take my phone to a store to have tests run first. What if I can't get my phone to "overheat" when I need I to?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
That's odd.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] HoodBoogie:
I have a new replacement on the way, hopefully it is an MDK
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dansan382:
when u call verizon if they replace it you will get a refurb, it will come just the phone in the box. no packaging or back cover, very easy to tell and also has a CLNR screen protector.

if you get a replacement directly from asurion, it will be brand new in factory packaging.

I had a CLNR come like 2-3 weeks ago, i ended up sending it back because i fixed my problem but it came as a MDK build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
Usually refurbs will say refurb or won't have the Samsung branding in the back sticker.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dansan382:
its very easy. full retail packaging = brand new. zero packaging/accessories = CLNR. thats what verizon sends you
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
But I've had plenty of refurbs other models such as the nexus. and it says refurb or asurion or no Samsung branding.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dansan382:
i dont know what you're getting at and i thought i made it pretty simple..

if it comes from asurion it will be brand new in the box, factory packaging along with manuals, battery, etc. in this case you paid a deductible to get a new phone.

if it comes from verizon it will a CLNR. has ZERO packaging and is just the phone. no battery, manuals, or battery door. it has a plastic screen protector on it that says verizon certified like new replacement. in this case it was replaced by verizon under manufacture warranty.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
Still.there is no way to tell by looking at it that its a refurb. The sticker matches the stock sticker entirely except different imei
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] u4icpain:
Just got a replacement from asurion and its ME7 :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RobertoIsRad:
Got mine today, MDK!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NilsP:
Getting a worry free replacement will let you know how it arrives. I am praying for MDK
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SvB4EvA:
Got a replacement today for weak signal problems.

Good news: The new phone has MDK. :)

Bad news: It's a refurb, and signal still sucks. :(

Tech on the phone told me that if I was still in the 14 day worry free guarantee, the phone would be new. After that 14 day period, they send refurbs. The fact that my trouble ticket was started during the 14 day guarantee didn't seem to matter.

SO, keep my original that was new in box, but got ME7 update, or keep the refurb with MDK??????

I am thinking MDK.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
How do you know its a refurb. Show us the back sticker. Hide your imei though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] HoodBoogie:
Got mine today! MDK!!

Refurb as well through Verizon, not asurion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
How can you guys tell its a refurb
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
Mine said the same. However I don't really believe it. Because the imei stickers always get changed upon refurb and it won't say Samsung on the imei sticker or it will say refurb and a sta date. However my sticker of my 'refurb' is exact as original minus different imei.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] HoodBoogie:
I don't know what to tell you. I don't work for Samsung.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nolanw:
MDK!!

OK guys, got my replacement in the mail 9/7.....MDK!!! I quickly turned it on and upgraded to ME7 before Verizon knew what I was up to. Now how do I get that Google market play place ROM on?? I went to coolrom.com but didnt find anything I wanted for the S4. Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] markwebb:
Am confused..you got mdk and quickly upgraded to me7? Why??? You can't install Rom's on me7.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bobby janow:
Please say you installed an me7 rom from a dev here. Don't utter ota.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ups2525:
WUUUUUUUUUUUT?????? :confused: Did you quickly turn it on and 'take the OTA to ME7'...?? More specifically what do you mean by "upgrade"?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Serk102:
Cracked the screen on my phone the other day, and got a replacement yesterday. Unfortunately it was ME7, I'm pretty bummed :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackra1n:
Why on earth would you update?! Now you're stuck with a locked boot loader! I hope my replacement comes with MDK and I'm staying there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] nolanw:
MDK!!

LOL....sorry fellas, it was a joke, just wanted to make everyones heart skip a beat. I can confirm MDK on 9/6 though. Called with the issue of "overheating". Received a CLNR in perfect shape. Installed the VZW GoogleEdition 5.9 ROM, couldn't be happier with the phone now. Totally worth it. Keep trying.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] haza12d:
Isn't the bootloader locked regardless of what build you're on, MDK or ME7?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
Yes. But there's a working bypass for mdk people. Called Loki.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blackra1n:
No! Boot loader on MDK is unlocked and recovery works on it. In getting my replacement soon. If it comes with ME7 I'll flip tables.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] haza12d:
I think you need to do a bit more reading. Bootloader is locked for all builds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mattevt:
So what happens if you report a purplish tint, return it, and they see that there is no purplish tint?

Also I've had my phone for a little over a month. I have insurance; does this mean I'll have to pay 100 to get a replacement?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] :
.. Can you show me how to "unlock" my bootloader...and I don't mean using Loki.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] haza12d:
I think it would be a good idea to have the phone stock before you send it back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mattevt:
You all must be social engineering geniuses. I thought I was pretty damn convincing with my purple tint story. I was personable and laid back, and the lady was really nice. However, after she spent sometime researching for possible causes/solutions, she told me I had to take it to the store to have them determine whether or not there was physical damage to the device. She said, if she sent me a replacement, when I send this one back they will look for signs of physical damage and if it is determined the phone was damaged I will be charged $299. And she noted my concerns on my account, so I can't call back with a different story.

Sucks to be me I guess. Bravo to all you success stories.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] KennyG123:
Thread cleaned and closed!

There will be NO discussions of warranty fraud on XDA!

There are also Verizon reps on this site.

Eventually they will stop this or investigate these claims further

The first time it soft bricked my device, i found out that you have to have Nova launcher installed first then change it or it will crash and soft brick. And the second time it worked but the multi window looks messed up and the "Edit" button is cut off so what you got in your multi window is what you got. And the stock camera app is messed up so i changed to Camera zoom FX. Also the dialer and calculator are a little bit off.
