[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Essenar:
I don't have one, but I'm looking at the market to buy one. The Note 3 is a considerable upgrade in terms of "Which should I get if I'm buying new?". S3's are down to about $250 or so so I would say a $100 off the used price would be reasonable but I'm not sure.

What do you guys think? What type of offers should I be making? I feel like anything above $300 and I might as well buy the Note 3 and eat the 2 year contract. (I'm on a monthly plan no contract and I use unlocked phones)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] dn3g3l:
where can you get a new s3 for $250? have not seen anything close to that.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] The111:
Call me crazy, but I wanted to find a sleeve style case that could store my N7 2013 which is already inside a Moko multi-angle flip case. I succeeded, and thought others may be interested.

http://www.caselogic.com/en-us/us/p...s/7-8-tablet-sleeve-pocket-_-ts_-_108_-_black

http://www.amazon.com/Case-Logic-TS-108-Galaxy-Tablet/dp/B00CTHQ5JM/

The case linked above will perfectly fit the N7 in either Moko or Poetic slimline/strapback style cases. It is a bit snug on the length dimension, but nothing that requires you to squeeze/force the zipper or the case... it is basically just a perfect fit lengthwise, while a bit looser width-wise.

I'll probably only use this when I travel or otherwise have to throw the whole thing in a backpack, but it's still nice to have I think. But also, I may be crazy. Now, if only I could find a similar case that would fit my GS4 in the Spigen case. :-/
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] drodarte:
I bought mine and it fits with new FHD with Poetic magnet case. Also fits my buddies original nexus with case.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] The111:
So which case did you buy? That would be helpful info. :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] Shadow89:
This is cheaper and for the price, very nice quality.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] The111:
Somebody emailed me asking if his N7 + TPU case would fit in the sleeve. This image is an attempt to help make that decision. It's a tough call, I'd guess it might work but the length would probably be too tight for me to be comfortable with it... you'd probably have to force the zipper closed if it would close at all. The Poetic case shown in the image has the exact same length/width as the hardware... it just makes it thicker.

EDIT: I just looked again and the Poetic case actually does add about 0.3 inch total to the length. So if the TPU case adds a similar amount or not much more, then it might work too.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] executioner777:
I have that mivizu sleeve and my nexus with a blurex case fits very snugly. Good for overprotecting when traveling and having it on a bag.

When I bought it didn't even think of it, just bought it on a whim. Thanks to the OP for the idea.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] ThePerson98:
I do this with mine, too. I have a poetic case and then a simple sleeve meant for the Kindle Fire HD. It keeps my Nexus 7 really safe when I have it in my backpack for school. When I'm using it, though, it's still very lightweight. I get the best of both worlds this way.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] yuno1984:
Zeroshock5

Got myself a Zeroshock 5 bit spacy but with intention that it will fit my nexus 7 + case during trips. (awaiting my case..)

Meantime I love this sleeve. Feels like proper security combined with a little pouch on the side for OTG/Charging usb cable.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Accessories] tanyacruz:
These are good cases. Did you guys stumble on a harder material case of the same purpose? I'm looking for a worry-free sleeve/bag so I can put it in my backpack. Thank you!

Hi People,

I have been breaking my head on this since last two days but am not able to figure out as to where to get the modem drivers for my O2 mini ....

I need to connect my Laptop to internet through GPRS but i dont have BT or IR so the only alternative is through modem can anyone plz tell me where can i download the modem drivers from .... it will be a great help

regards

Sashin
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Dandie:
There are no modem drivers for the mini, that's why you're breaking your head! The preinstalled modem application allows connections through IR, BT and USB.

Sources are there, BUT he told me that he modified them a bit, cause I forgot to write vendor Samsung Jena etc

I can test it cause I can't sync cm sources until October(I only have 3G connection)

Maybe mount and format commands are not correct

And it's strange this:

package_extract_dir(recovery, /system)

federivas can you upload the ZIP???

And a recovery log will help too... You can dump it to sdcard in advanced menu of cwm/report error
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] dlb4all:
just double check your mount points specialy if you use dsixda because that kitchen doesnt support JENA by default

you have to add the phone manualy and you can find the mount points by extracting the kernel ( stock kernel recommend )

but beside that i was really waiting for CM7 for a long time . i hope you finish it

Is there a link for gapps or i have to flash only the rom.zip?

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] MrMateczko:
I've seen the zip, and:

*Adreno 200 egl files are missing

*Major libs from lib/hw are missing

The package_extract_dir("recovery", "/system"); line in build.prop looks fishy.

Try to fix those three things and maybe it'll be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Andrespro6:
1.- CM7 is based on Android 2.3.7

2.- I dont know hahaha

3.- Theorically , have good performance and baterry cause is based on GB

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] manudroid19:
I fixed the errors in updater-script, then I installed it and I only got a black screen after the Samsung logo screen. I didn't see the "Samsung galaxy mini 2" screen, so in conclusion kernel is corrupted (in that screen is when kernel is loaded)

After seen that, I flashed squazone's kernel over cm7, and I got stuck at "galaxy mini 2 screen"

Next is make a logcat to see what happens!

I will compare my sources to galaxy s ones, too. Maybe it will help to find the bug

And finally: [MENTION=4874832]federivas[/MENTION], please if we get a bootable rom, please let me make the finally thread, sources are mine, so I think is the correct way

Dear all,

i got this phone from a friend (S3 from Verizon, SCH -I535) but I'm leaving in Germany, i thougt it would be enough to Flash a custom Rom to get rid of the sim lock but it Looks like that there are morre technical issues that i know :crying:

So what i find out is that it uses CDMA 1x/EVDO Rev A. instead of GSM/UMTS and that the LTE band is ankother one.

On the other Hand i read about the jellywiz gsm Rom for that device, the outcome is that i'm very confused right now.

My question, is there a Software based way (custo Rom, kernel, modem etc) to make this device working in Germany with a german carrier sim Card?

thnx in advanced

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhagwanie:
Hi all !

Since yesterday I'm not able to flash any ROM on my I9505. This is what happened.

Yesterday I was flashing a ROM (PACman) and on that ROM I was getting a lot of FC

so I decided to put my previous ROM back on my phone (FoxHound). After the Aroma install,

my phone reboots and keeps stuck at the splash ''Samsung'' logo screen.

This is driving me crazy. I tried to flash different ROMs with no success..

I couldn't boot my phone up, couldn't access recovery, only download mode.

After I flashed a stock firmware with Odin, I can boot up and use my phone properly.

I only can't flash any other ROMs anymore, cause it will cause my phone to keep stuck

at the ''Samsung'' logo..

Someone got a solution? Or is someone having the same problem?

Thank you for your reply.

- I flashed PhilZ recovery, did a wipe data/factory reset, flashed FoxHound ROM again, wiped cache and dalvic cache.. and again no succes..

I didn't understand what u meant in your last sentence with ''plm''?

I tried to flash the PACman ROM again, and it worked, but still I'm getting Force Close when someone calls me or if I'm trying to call someone.

Hello, there is the problem, I found this rom to flash in recovery, it works ok, but when I tried to change and flash another differents roms is some times I could not.

right now I tried to flash [4.1.2] I9300XXEMG6 and got the same problem, bootloop at samsung logo

before I tried the 4.2.2 version I had not problem changing rom, wipe dalvik as always and it worked fine, but not now

I read about the efs folder change and I think that may it cause the problem, but, XEMG6 have the same efs folder, or 4.2.2 version would not return to work after tried XEMG6, but, the mentioned dont work

how can be the problem?

thanks you
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] centroi:
thanks for the reply

I think that it can be the solution, but Im not sure, before I tried this version I had never this problem, only wipe dalvik and it works fine, which makes me think that there is a posibility that it will not run

there is nothing unusual, no? it should work making a wipe, no?

(maybe because the efs folder changed?)

go to titanium backup for make the backups and saw that dont recognise the paid license (bought, and never happened this), restart phone, and finaly uninstall TB and when I tryed to reinstall its not possible, appear message that need space (have 2 gb free yet) tried with other apps and there is not any problem

none of this is allied

I have seen the forum threads you talk about but not really what I'm looking for
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] acw928:
What is with the hostility and the crazy rules on these boards? I get he kind of asked a newb question, but on the other hand, there are so many bad ROMs, outdated and buggy, and so on. I don't see competition as a bad thing. Just the other day, I flashed away a perfectly good ROM on my HTC One XL to try the new ViperXL, just to find out it was buggy and had restrictions that I HATED. I would have loved to been able to ask someone for some advice and opinion to know before I tried it. Trial and error is not for everyone, ESPECIALLY new people with many questions and little knowledge.

I myself have a friend on my phone plan using my old Vivid and would like some guidance on ROMs. Apparently, there are no newer and functional sense ROMs and all the AOSP ROMs have complaints about volume issues and so on. I experience bad issues on CM with mine/his previous HTC Inspire and I don't want to find out the hard way, so it would be nice to hear opinions on the stability, speed, and functionality of all the AOSP ROMs without having to flash them all and find out I would have been better off stock.

Just saying. I don't want to be ridiculed for these questions, and nobody else should be either. Maybe there can be a special area of the forums for newbs where patient people can choose to help them specifically.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
OK...

If you read the q&a section... Its full of people that can't read...

If you flash ROMs without reading... You'll be using the RUU to fix it...

I personally am tired of jackasses just flashing away and having no freaking clue what they are doing then coming on here and demanding answers...

If you can freakin read... All... YES ALL... The answers are in these forums...

And STOP DEFENDING STUPIDITY...

Read before you flash
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] obsidianfury:
Hence why the only ROM I have flashed was cm10.1 I am having in call volume issues and why I took to posting my first question and then this one. I am looking for a rom with at least sense 4.1 and jellybean with proper call volumes and working lte. I don't understand the hostilities I am sorry I do read the post but I don't have the money to replace my phone if I brick it or it becomes unresponsive or bricks and the only way some can truly learn is to read and then talk and ask questions to those who knows what they are doing
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
It is very hard to brick your phone anymore... As long as you keep partitions straight...

If the ROM was poison... It would be removed...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] obsidianfury:
Even so I'm sure you would agree you wouldn't want to even risk the chance of doing so at all.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Jaxellis:
NO jelly bean build will have in call volume fixed. look in the development thread for sense 4.1 roms There is only one in there and one posted in the vivid general section. Everyone stop arguing and go about your business
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
If that were the case... I'd still have sense 3.6 on here...

I'm a bad example... I'll flash anything as long as I have the RUU handy...

I am quite surprised that this phone isn't in Qualcomm download mode ;)
