[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] akira:
if a radio update is available, maybe a rom update is around the corner.

Or just a recovery standard rom
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] dherrero:
Does exits an official rom to reinstall jasjar rom?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] atekant:
I am doing the radio update again to see if that helps.

I will probably need to contact imate support for a recovery rom image I suppose. I suppose I should tell them what I was doing.

But this update was from imate, right, so I didn't do anything "wrong".

If someone has a rom, please let me know.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] atekant:
So, I am getting the runaround.

iMate says they don't have the rom to send me and I should send the device to the service center. The service center says they don't work on JasJars there.

So I am stuck with a paperweight?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Dubi:
Try Hard reset....

Just try to Hard reset .. most probably one of your already installed S/W causes the machine to hangup.... once you clear after Hard reset it should boot up.. worse while before sending it back to imate and being blamed for loading un-official and not released update... Unfortunatly there no "shipped rom" yet. you best choice to recover the paper weight is to hard reset and perhaps load S/W again. ... I have been trying to dump the rom for days with no success .. once one of us can do it we are releaseed.

Good luck
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] atekant:
Re: Try Hard reset....

Already did the hard reset (many times) and nothing changed.

The problem started after the radio update, and the hard reset does not reset that update (I see the new version on startup).

Unless there is a harder reset I can do, I suppose I will have to wait for the rom.

makes a grown man cry...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] dherrero:
opppsss. Be patient. Be sure in a few days someone will leak a rom (imate, o2, tmobile, xda-developers)...and then your baby will come back to life.....Check this forum every day. I am looking for a rom too.....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] jrp:
Back to life!

:D Well I have a live JasJar.

Here's what I did:

Uninstalled ActiveSync 4 and rebooted.

Installed ActiveSync 4.1 prerelease.

Connected to the USB port on the PC, rather than the docking station.

I had previously hard reset the device, so when it came up, I had to reset it from scratch.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] atekant:
Unfortunately AS 4.1 did not help me. I am still in the same situation.

I couldn't really use AS anyways because the machine never boots into the OS. The only thing that seems to work is the bootloader.

I really need a full rom image and/or a way to reset the device harder than the hard reset (with all this talk about WM5 not really clearing everything)

Anybody getting closer to dumping out the full rom out there?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] jrp:
I was in the same situation -- bootloader only. Sorry that it didn't work for you.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] atekant:
What exactly did you do with AS 4.1 then?

When I am in bootloader and plug it in, I get the USB device notification from the PC, but AS does not kick in. I run the rom update exe and that does not seem to care about AS, as I had tried uninstalling AS and running the update without.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] jrp:
I did nothing with it. It may well be that plugging the JASJAR into a different USB port did the trick.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Perttir:
I was also in in boot loader loop - nothing seemed to help. Uninstalling AS 4.1 and reinstalling it again helped to regocnise the device. So I'm up and running now !
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] decebal:
how did you get out from bootloader ? can you please us step by step. i have an mda pro.

thanks
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Perttir:
I connected JASJAR (while in loader loop) to XP. => XP recognises the usb device (if not try by softresetting your PDA). Got Active sync = not connected. Uninstalled AS (in my case 4.1). Reinstalled AS and rerun the upgrade. That solved the problem (at least in my case) !
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xXJay_RXx:
Okay so I've narrowed my options down to the SGP glas.tr slim, the Glas.t nano, BodyGuardz and Tech Amor Ballistic tempered glass. Which one would you guys suggest?

Also what is a good way to apply them? With these type of screen protectors being a one shot type of thing, I'm nervous to put it on. On my iPhone 5, I tried the steamy bathroom method but I ended up getting steam under the glass screen protector when I installed it. Any great methods you guys used for a dust/bubble free application? Thanks :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Eric214:
IDK about them but I use MIME Ghost glass on my S$ and its AMAZING. It has the hardness rating of (9H) compared to others I looked at (7-8H) and it is also only .32mm thick. Others i looked at were like .40mm thick. The reason i mention thickness is that with a case on the phone the surface still sits lower then the rubber edges of the case so you aren't putting the phone face down and have it sitting on the glass screen protector. MIME also has a lifetime warranty that if it breaks or whatever it's 50% off to replace it.

1 more thing, not all of them have a curved edge to the glass. Some have a straight edge and can chip or crack much easier so make sure then ones you are looking at have a curved edge finish.

As far as install... just make sure its clean of dust. You can pick them up and reapply the glass protectors pretty easily. Point of reference, i used the home button and the edge of the top of the screen protector and the ear speaker at the top to make sure it was straight and centered

Just my 2 cents on what i got and why i decided on that one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
I used glas.t cuz I always use a case. Love it. And its super thin. .023? I think. Applied it with the shower on in the bathroom. came out mint.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xXJay_RXx:
You didn't get any steam under the screen protector that made it all foggy? That's what happened to me before :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oakley470:
got a glass.tr knockoff form ebay. Cheap ~$8 and fits with a neo hybrid case. Works perfectly, wouldn't pay a dollar more for a "name" brand one. They are the same exact thing, i applied it very carefully and managed to get no dust. just lay it flat and push the bubbles out from the middle.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xXJay_RXx:
I hear more and more about these knockoffs. Are they shipped from like china or from the US?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] imablackhat:
Nopee. Shower not to hot. Just slightly. And left it on for two minutes and did it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] oakley470:
look on ebay, can get both. mine was from us. They aren't knockoffs, they all are the same, you think spigen is manufacturing screen protectors in the us? No company can actually do anything different then another with a half millimeter piece of glass.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xXJay_RXx:
Just bought a $9 screen protector. Hope it works well
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] pham818:
thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] HSishi:
I know there are replacement covers which support wireless charging and NFC operation. There are also some Wireless Charger modules which allow NFC operation but they make the back side a bit thicker. Current versions allow NFC while previous versions were fixed with a thin metal foil which shielded the NFC signal

But replacement batteries which allow NFC operation ... I can't imagine that because the bigger battery would make the phine thicker (means reducing the NFC range) or cover a large area of the back, NFC area included, and the NFC signals will be shielded by the battery.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] gte460z:
Umm... the NFC antenna is built into the battery, not the phone. There is no "NFC area" other than on the battery itself. The OP is asking for the largest capacity stock size battery with NFC capability.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] anuj6111:
just buy the oem battery kit !!

works like a charm!! charges batteries in 1hr 40min precisely .... with the oem charger !!
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Crauze:
There's none except from original Samsung battery
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] HSishi:
Ugh, didn't know that until I looked on my battery after your post. The battery of my SGS1 has 3 contacts (+, - and a safety pin (battery temperature? )) while the SGS4 battery has 4 pins and a label "Near Field Communication".

With "NFC area" I meant the area where the NFC antenna is (inside the battery I know now). Any NFC tag has to be within the range of this antenna (a very low range, a few millimeters only) to communicate.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] IamPro:
Anker 2600 battery kit, you get 2 so you can swap between the 3 while one charges and yes they come with NFC if you choose

I wonder if Samsung will come out with 3000 extended battery like they did for the S3

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Rfcg:
Just bought a Note 2, currently I have a Galaxy S3 with the official extended battery. This gives a small increase in capacity (3000mAh) and also a small amount of thickness added on compared to standard.

Most of the extended batteries for the Note 2 are huge, I am curious to know if anyone has experienced any trusted extended batteries, possibly an extra 1000mAh+, but only adding a small thickness to the phone like the official one for S3, instead of the large batteries like Zerolemon etc.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] GarfieldDC:
I've been looking for something like that too. Haven't found one yet. I don't like the bulk that the big extended batteries add to the already huge device.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] joshm.1219:
they are all double the size of the normal battery nothing thinner.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] EyLaTnOgN:
I dont see the point of buying a thin extended battery. If you want more battery life then get MORE battery life.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Rfcg:
Well I don't need a battery that lasts for 4 days or whatever, just slightly longer than stock. And I do not wish to increase the thickness of the phone 2x, 3x etc for extra power that I don't need.

The genuine extended for the S3 was the perfect solution, I just wish similar existed for the Note 2.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] dawabz94:
Hi,

while digging DealExtreme, I found this, I'm wondering if anyone tried it already

Found no review or video on the net about it

Link : http://dx.com/p/keva-cbw-n7100-2400...attery-for-samsung-galaxy-note-2-black-225717
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Bright.Light:
I have had this same range for my HTC One X. When the battery feeds the device, it constantly told me that the power used is larger than it receives from the battery. So, this is bad!

When the device is off and the battery is full, it is possible to charge the internal device to approximately half full, so this is bad!

ut, worse is to come: My device dropped by accident and, because of this heavy load together with missing protection for the glass (device does NOT protect the face of the device!) the gorilla glass broke to several pieces.

So, unless this is a completely different type (which I doubt!), you better NOT try this one!
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] dawabz94:
Oups ! Thank you very much , too bad, I ordered one already (I liked the idea)

20$ wasted but at least I know I should not use it - or if I do, use maximum caution

Thanks a lot for letting me know, I'll report back is I go crazy enough to try it :)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
What puzzles me is how you supposed to connect it. The case has a built in battery with two pins sticking out in the back. Then you have 2 sets of conductive wires to run from the battery to the phone? Where do you connect it on the phone, wireless charging pins or something? If you have Verizon phone, those not even available on the back, etc.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] dawabz94:
I guess it'll take a long time but when I receive it , I'll try to post some pix here
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Bright.Light:
It looks like something you have to put inside, between battery and connectors.

The end will stick out of the phone. I think it has some glue so it will stick somehow on the case.

After that's connected, you can put the phone onto the external battery and the metal tips of the external battery will fit 'nicely' the glued metal stuff.

My One X already had those connectors for connecting to car etc.

I sure would not like this adaptation of my phone...

I don't really care if it looks identical to the official one, I just want a backplate with a better grip (without having to resort to cases.) So far I've only been able to find cheap Chinese/Taiwanese crap where the "leather" sticker starts to peel off in a week. I would've thought that Samsung releasing "faux-leather" back on Note 3 would be a kick in 3rd-party accessory market.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jay-roc:
For about a week now my KFHD running CyanogenMod 10.1 has been powering off randomly. I think each time it has happened, I have been playing or attempting to play audio or video. This is an instant power-off, rather than a proper shutdown -- i.e., the screen goes black, and I have to go through the boot sequence when I power it back on.

This might be a coincidence, but the first time it happened was very shortly after I added a second user account. I was trying to play a podcast with the WTF app, and it suddenly turned off. After the first power-off I booted up the tablet and went straight to the WTF app, and played a couple of seconds of audio before it turned off again; this happened repeatedly, maybe three times in a row.

I removed the second user account, on the chance this was related to the power-offs, but since then it has happened several more times. I believe these other times I was using the Stitcher radio app (audio) and Netflix (video). I noticed the last few times the battery level was pretty low -- i.e., approaching 15% -- but I can't say if this has been the case every time. I think the first time it happened the battery level was higher, but I can't be sure.

I suppose I should look to see if there are any clue in the system logs, but I wanted to know if anyone has encountered this problem before. (Also, I just noticed that when I try to run 'adb' to inspect the logs from my Mac, it says the device is "offline." I haven't seen this before, but I don't know if I've tried to use adb since I installed CM a couple of months ago.) Apart from installing a custom firmware, I haven't done anything else to my device that might make it unstable, like overclocking it.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
I'm guessing the kernel is crashing, do you have viper4android installed? I had a similar problem with my cm 10.1 os a few weeks back, when having keyboard sounds on and typing really fast with viper on my kernel was crashing. If you don't have that or acid installed, then try wiping the system partition and reflashing the ROM, you won't lose any data. You might be able to debug it by continuously using your kindle while hooked up to your PC and running adb logcat, and waiting for it to crash and seeing what it said last in the log before it crashes. Idk if kernel errors show up there though, and I dunno how to view a continuous view of the kernel log outside of repeatedly running dmesg.

[MENTION=5112866]stunts513[/MENTION]: I don't have viper4android or keyboard sounds, but it does seems like the kernel is crashing. I haven't had time to figure out why adb isn't working for me right now, but when I do I'll see if I can make it crash and watch the log.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soupmagnet:
Going from CM10.1 to CM10.2 doesn't really rule much out if they are both from the same developer/device tree/etc. Have you tried installing a completely different ROM like Kinology or PA to see if the results are the same?

I followed all directions for Kinology but I'm getting crashes every time I try to unlock the lockscreen. Only twice I've seen the setup options (language) and both times it's crashed prior to making a selection.

Edit 2: I'm just going to restore completely and try everything fresh.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
If I remember right, when going from a amazon os to a cm ROM and vice-versa, you need to do a factory reset before you flash the ROM (kinology), also wipe cache, dalvik cache, and system before the flash.

Hi,

A simple question but I couldn't find it categorically written down anywhere: What is the largest SD card that can be used in an XDAIIi?

Thanks a lot,

James.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] Danny-B-:
Im not sure i know of any limit, but its worth noting that only a Transcend 80x SD card works properly and as far as i know they go up to 1gig.

Any other card (non 80x) causes problems with the XDA IIi and causes it to hang.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] eisley:
Thanks for the info. I've been using San Disk 256Mb cards for a while which seem to work fine (although one did get confused once and thought it contained stuff when it didn't so had to be reflashed).

I'll stick to Transcend when buying a new bigger one.

Thanks,

James.
