Okay I have a Galaxy S3 theT-Mobile version, SGH-T999 and Im trying to unlock it by the Service Mode, (dial *#197328640# then UMTS, Debug Screen, Phone Control, Network Lock, Persho sha256 off) but that option [4] does not show, either way, I click on option [3] SHA256_ENABLE_FLAG[0], then I see "menu does not exist" "press back key" and "current command is 118630", Then I wait 30 seconds, press the menu key and select back, I do it again to be in that Ntwork Lock page again, BUT still that option [4] does not appear, which is the one that I am suppose to click and wait for a minute to get it unlocked. Yes, I have done my research;

I already downgraded my Android version to 4.1.1 since I had 4.1.2 and still no luck.

I have tried it with a T-Mobile SIM, Simple Mobile SIM and Aio Wireless SIM and still does not work. Can anyone help me please.

I just did it an hour ago for a friend. TMobile Galaxy S3... Downgraded to root66_VTR_T999VVLALH2.7z .... Did the unlock, confirmed working with new SIM (Family Mobile). Reinstalled TWRP, and reflashed his custom ROM back to 4.1.1... All is working perfectly...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
How dId you downgrade? Did you include the modem in that? Your probably still using the MD5 modem.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] juanhouston713:
I dont know if I did any of that, I just put clockwork mod or something like that and put that 4.1.1 update in there. What should I do next.? How do check if im still usind that MD5 modem.? And I dnt think you have to unlock a tmobile phone to use it whith family mobile, its like simple mobile and tmobile..
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
How do you not know what you flashed? And what exactly are you referring to by "that 4.1.1 update"?

All of the firmware info is listed in Settings. Why go through the trouble if you think you can use it without unlocking? Dont take it the wrong way, but if you don't know what you are flashing, or how to even check what you are running, you might consider stopping while you still have a functional device. People brick their phones all the time because they don't take the time to understand what it is they are doing.

And I didn't have the phone with me, but I have it now and yeah I still do have T999UVDMD5. And I am not a pro at this but I do have a little understanding of what I am doing. So do you have any suggestions on what to do to unlock it, cause my At&t month is running and I have no phone to use it with :/
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Just flash an older modem and follow the instructions in the main unlock thread in General. Should work fine.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] squicky:
I would like to know if hdmi setting for our Note 2 gives real possibility to use 5.1 or 7.1 surround audio.

That's what I tried. I was connecting it to my LCD TV Sharp LC46x20e using mhl adapter and hdmi cable. Sound was sent from optical output on the TV to my Logitech z5500 speakers.

The audio was pretty good, but unfortunately it wasn't Dolby or DTS (only Prologic surround from the speakers).

So either TV doesn't send correct 5.1 signal to the speakers or my video players (stock Samsung, MX Player and Dice Player) can't send 5.1 signal or Note 2 simply doesn't send 5.1

It would be very helpful for me if someone would be able to confirm any of those statements as I'm thinking of buying something like this to route the sound directly to the speakers without passing it through the TV and in effect achieve true 5.1 surround sound.

Hi experts,

the A100 have by default "5 Screens" you can put your applications or widgets on

My question is if there is a way to reduce the number to 1 or 2 ?

Thanks,

Depends on the launcher in use if that can be done or not.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] jared_schaefer:
Not sure about the default launcher, it's been a long time since I've used it but I know you can with other launchers like Nova plus you get many other options. Just install it and let it export everything from your default launcher. You can then change the number of screens in the settings or by pressing the home button from the center home screen.

Hello guys!

After trying and trying to get cdma stock rom working on gsm I realized that it was impossible LOL.

So I decided to start a new project instead: I called it the "Pure Stock Project".

It is a rom based on. 79 firmware, modded by me to look like cdma.

Let me know what you guys think, and if I should release it, screenshots in attachment!
[Xperia Play General] crazymonkey05:
I think it looks like 100% stock except for the Sony Ericsson stuff added in of course
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
Thank you man :good:

The only thing is that some semc apps use a button reference in the SemcGenericUxpRes, with a white text color, so in apps like dialer text is sometimes hard to see in some buttons :(

I'm trying to find a solution, since it's impossible to decompile and correctly recompile that framework.
[Xperia Play General] pedyvirus:
i think you should release it

this project is great

i really like it

but 1 question

have you tested any games on it?

why free ram is that much low

are you using a 720p kernel?

gaming on GB is always good, ram depends on your kernel, 720p kernel on GB is recommended (or doomkernel)

i have usually 240mb ram in stock GB - never faced any problems in the heaviest games. ram and benchmark-numbers (especially antutu) is just numbers-porn.
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
OMG thank you man I'll try that :D

I will release it when I finish some other things like modding the lockscreen, the button text font color, and a bug i've found into grid_selector item.

I'll try to mod the dialer as well

And yeah, 720p kernel there :p

You're right, especially with adrenobooster gta vc runs like butter on high gfx settings :D
[Xperia Play General] 404-Not Found:
Is there a difference between the CDMA and GSM Stock ROMs?
[Xperia Play General] pedyvirus:
yes their rom look like aosp gb
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
It's not only the look:

most of the code is taken straight from the 2.3.3 sources that google released, that's why we cannot port it :P
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
Quick Update:

fixed grid_selector

changed SemcButton text color to black

Still To-do:

try to mod lockscreen to be like cm7

mod dialer to look like AOSP
[Xperia Play General] pedyvirus:
i think its even possible to port aosp gb lockscreen easily

my first try gived me a boot loop

and i will be a tester if you want
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
Thank you, but I'm testing myself, since it's much faster :P

Anyway, did you try to logcat?

Logcatting should be of great help when it comes to testing
[Xperia Play General] pedyvirus:
i dont understand logcats :P

i was trying to port gb lockcsreen using they way that developers do for ics (but for sure i changed it a litlle)
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
Well, I think that the easiest way for now is to mod the drawables themeselves (sure I'll have to resize them).

Btw, next time you logcat, search for Errors (logs that start with "E:" ).
[Xperia Play General] DiamondBond:
Amazing project, can't wait for final realease!

But plz plz plz, no mods, no adreno booster, no init.d, no build.prop tweaks

This way it's purely STOCK GB and it allows many many other bases/ports to other Roms, ;)

And yes realise it
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
Actually, I tought of implementing ADJ tweaks and adrenobooster v0.7 by default, since it's still a stock rom, not an AOSP rom like cm7 :P

In other words, I've changed most of the png's in the framework-res.apk (hard work lol), systemui.apk, most of the app to match cdma's icons, and other changes that I don't remember, so I don't think it should be easily used as a base rom :)
[Xperia Play General] DiamondBond:
Well u made it so u mess with it, ;)
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
If you'd really like it, then I'll upload a version without mods for you :P
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
Quick Update:

YEAHHH, I've finally ported AOSP dialer :D

[Xperia Play General] pedyvirus:
wow thats amazing

and i really like the no mod version

because most of the tweaks will hurt asphalt 8 :(

im really intrested in this rom

it seems awesome
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
Well, the only mods I've included are adreno booster, adj and dalvik tweaks :P

Anyway PureStockProject is already uploaded, I'm just waiting for the non-modded version to be uploaded as well :P (rom .zip is 88Mb)

Well, from GSM to CDMA would be more difficult, coz you'll have to implement most of the sony custom resources (alot of apps use it, like, for example, dialer) and that's pretty impossible :/

[Xperia Play General] smokerman:
for a GB rom is all that you need. media profile is to some issues with record sound on video recorder and other that might happen. to fix inverted camera is neoL kernel,not rom.;)

if you use a neoL kernel (lupus for example)on your play, you get inverted camera also..all rest works fine..:cool:

You're right, thank you, I'll patch the build.prop to be compatible with neo l and then release it in neo l too :D

Hey guys! Thanks for taking a look at my question!:)

To start off I'd like to say sorry if I misplaced this thread.

Ok so last night I flashed TeamChopsticks' CM-10.2 ROM for the Samsung Galaxy Exhilarate. If you have this phone, you'd know that is only has 1.12GB internal storage and 1.40GB internal SD space:(.. So, like on my last ROM, I decided to swap my SD cards- but for some reason in my build.prop file I didn't find anything that has to do with the SD swapping. I've checked to see if I have a vold.fstab and don't, so I'm guessing it should be in my build.prop. Please help? I don't know what I'm doing wrong.-.

Anything would be appreciated!

[LG Optimus 2x] Sammy321:
Hi guys!

Here's my situation:

- P990, tonyp's PA 2.6 v.13, old bootloader, Kowalski kernel exp. version 12x

- Phone started boot looping (no obvious cause)

- Tried deleting cache. Didn't help.

- Tried flashing the same ROM from external SD. Didn't help.

- Tried restoring working backup (boot and system only, not complete restore) from CWM. Didn't help.

So then I guess I have to do a complete factory reset, but that means I'll lose everything on my internal SD card, right? I want to make a copy first so that I can keep my files. My nandroid backups are only 2.x GB, so I guess they don't include everything on the internal SD card.

I tried to connect the phone to my laptop, but nothing happened, so I deleted/reinstalled drivers from the LG website. That didn't work, but then I found this post which got me a little further. It said the installation was successful, but when I was in CWM, the disks (int. and ext. SD) wasn't being recognized. When I rebooted recovery (from CWM) or just rebooted the device, the computer recognized the discs and started installing four drivers, but as the phone either gets into CWM or just boot loops, it seems like Windows isn't able to finalize the installation of the drivers. This results in the SD cards not being functional in Windows. I can't even see disk labels or storage used/available.

Does someone have an idea of how I might be able to access the internal SD from Windows? Either by fixing the driver issue, or some other method?

I guess I have to fix this USB issue to be able to try to use adb pull to get all the stuff off the internal memory as well, right? Or is the connection between phone and computer not required to be "complete" to be able to do that? I do not remember for sure, but I believe I had turned on USB debugging before all this mess started. However, I have never used adb before.

I'm massively thankful for any help!
[LG Optimus 2x] bitdomo:
Can you tell me version of the recovery you use?

Did you tried wipe dalvik-cache? (Advance-->Wipe dalvik-cache)
[LG Optimus 2x] Sammy321:
I'm using ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.3.1.

Yes, I tried wiping dalvik cache as well, but that didn't fix it either.

Are there some other ways of getting out of the bootloop? I don't mind flashing stock rom or whatever else, as long as I can recover my internal SD.
[LG Optimus 2x] bitdomo:
Download AIO-toolkit from the developement forum. Install itt, and install nvflash drivers with it.

At the main screen select option 2, and then select option 2 again. Follow teh instructions on the screen, and select TWRP 2.5.0.0 to be installed, or cwm 5.0.2.8, both have working mass storage.

(6.0.3.1 has broken massstorage and adb interface. I think you installed cwm 6.0.3.1 through rom manager, if it that true you are on old bootloader.)
[LG Optimus 2x] Sammy321:
Aha, that explains it!

I installed CWM 5.0.2.8 and I got a little further than before. When I mount USB storage in CWM, my external SD card shows up on my computer, but not my internal SD card. What can be the reason for this? Could the card be corrupted, or are there other ways of getting the internal SD to appear?

I tried mounting everything I could mount from the Mounts and storage menu in CWM, but the external SD was still the only thing that showed up on my laptop.

Thank you so much for helping with this!
[LG Optimus 2x] bitdomo:
Can you try twrp 2.5.0.0?
[LG Optimus 2x] Sammy321:
I've been trying, but I'm not even able to boot into recovery with TWRP installed.

Any other ideas? :fingers-crossed:
[LG Optimus 2x] bitdomo:
Do a factory reset with a working cwm. You will lose all your installed apps and their data, but it will keep data on internal sdcard. After the factory reset you can boot up into andorid
[LG Optimus 2x] Sammy321:
YES! I thought factory reset would delete the internal SD, so I didn't even consider that, but it worked like a charm! Thank you so much for caring and helping! You just made my week! :highfive:

I just got a new AT&T S4 - and I was fortunate enough to get an MDL firmware (at least according to the sticker - I haven't powered it up yet).

I'm familiar with modding an Atrix, but I have some questions about the process on the S4, and was hoping someone could clarify a few things for me:

1. Will MF3 or other firmware updates ever occur without my explicitly allowing it? Do I have to worry about preventing an automatic update in the background? And if so, how?

2. What is the correct order (and best utilities) to deal with modding this phone?

For example, do I root with MotoChopper, then flash a recovery such as OUDHS, then install a custom ROM? Am I missing a step here?

What are the current recommended best utilities/methods for rooting and recovery?

The first thing you need to do is pull the SIM and DO NOT connect to WiFi when you turn it on. AT&T will try and force the update if you are connected.

No. You need to root and throw on a custom recovery and ROM before connecting or putting in your SIM. You can just root and disable the update, but I would follow the link that was posted above.

pull the sim and power it up. when you're doing the setup, skip the wifi portion. check and see what the build version is before you go doing anything.

if you're going to stay pure (touchwiz) stock but rooted, then instructions for blocking OTA updates is, yet again, found in the HOW-TO guide under post #2.

Okay, I did this - it's definitely MDL. (Thank God)

So, if I now root the phone and rename "wssyncmldm.apk", I should be safe to pop the SIM back in and use the phone on stock until I'm ready to flash a custom ROM?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] graydiggy:
Dear Jeezus guys. Just keep the SIM out, and keep your wifi on. It will not pull the update on wifi alone. It has to be verified on the AT&T cellular network to pull the update. You can then root, use titanium backup to delete/freeze the OTA process or you can put a custom ROM on the device.

Lets clear this up more. The OTA can only be started with the SIM in the phone. Once started, pulling the SIM will not stop the download. Once it is finished downloading, you have 3 24 hour periods (72 hours) to click no before it automatically updates to MF3. After that, you are screwed.
