Rumors, rumors, rumors...

Z2, if Sony release Z2 ever won't see the sun before end of the 2014.

Z1 is flagship and it'll remain flagship this year.

Sony will release few models, mainly for Africa and middle east.

Those are informations from guys who knows what are they talking about...everything else is just rumors, rumors, rumors...

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfgar2k:
I'm trying to flash CWM on my non-rooted, fully updated T210R. I'm following the instructions on this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2433853.

Odin says it flashed successfully, and the tab reboots fine, but when I power off and boot into recovery, I'm getting the stock recovery. I've tried both the touch and non-touch versions, without success.

It's probably something small that I'm missing, but I can't for the life of me find it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

did you check auto reboot in odin? if you do, just try to flash cwm again w/o checking auto reboot. it happens to my tab coz i've check auto reboot.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfgar2k:
Just tried that. Same results. Everything looks good when flashing, but when I boot into recovery it's the stock recovery.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trazfer:
1.Dont check the autoreboot. Ketut.kumajaya said something about the system is restoring recovery when rebooting

2. Try to redownload the cwm recovery.

3. If that didnt work, What odin are u using? Try 3.07 ..

4. You can also try twrp. I am using twrp and it is working great
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfgar2k:
I've been using Odin 3.07 the whole time. I tried twrp as you suggested and that worked. Not sure why cwm didn't work, but at least now I'm rooted. Thanks.

I will recreate an autoroot package for you in my spare time. Samsung Android boot image has a known feature to patch the boot image and use it to overwrite the recovery image on every boot. This feature disabled in blackhawk kernel, some recovery has a capability to disable this feature as well.

I frequently find myself in extreme outlying areas during my leisure time, which is why I am a die-hard Verizon customer. But many times I can get a slightly better signal by going to higher ground, moving around within a mile or so etc and know there must be some means by which I can boost my signal. I have not found much help anywhere online... I have found some "direct cellular signal boosters" from Wilson Electronics but I have no idea if they work or if I am missing something. Btw the varied apps that claim to boost my cell signal seem poorly developed and rather useless but please, if you have any ideas at all I am all ears.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mightycaptain:
I can vouch for the Wilson products. I have a kit in my house and in the car. @ my house, it's the difference between a poor 1 bar outside and 4 to 5 bars in the house using the booster. Where I had no signal before. The car booster is very much the same. Now it doesn't work where there is no signal. But if it gets just a little. It will really make a difference. Worth the money. Check out amazon. Tons of reviews for the different Wilson boosters. See what you think.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M3drvr:
I recently just picked up a nexus 4 and i'm trying to get a custom ROM on it. I updated it to 4.3 and that was fine. Went to install custom recovery and every since it will not boot! I've reverted to factory 4.3 using fastboot, and relocked it and locked it but still will not boot. It gets stuck at the X logo. Left it for an hour and won't get past it. If i install a custom recovery, it'll boot into the custom recovery no problem, but won't install root as it can't mount the SD card. I can get to fastboot mode no problem and flash stuff in fastboot but will never boot up. I'm puzzled as to what to do. I'm going to try 4.2.2 factory image here shortly and see if i can get it to take. I forgot to enable USB debugging so i think thats why i can't get custom recoveries to work. I tried pushing a ROM using ADB push but it wouldn't get there. Maybe it did as it said it did on the computer but the recovery won't read the memory. Any ideas as to what to do

UPDATE: Ok after flashing stock 4.2.2 from fastboot it boots.

UPDATE: turns out just having USB debugging was the culprit of everything. So make sure USB debugging is enabled before starting the whole process!

[General Questions and Answers] mha93:
Yes, it is. Everything would be back up. When you reflash it again, everything would be the way it was. But I advise you to backup one in internal and the other at external. Happened before where my nandroid backup failed and I have to use an earlier, older back up.

Hi all,

well we have recently bought 36 m2000s and we use various software on them for our engineers out in the field.

So i was trying to unlock the extended Rom so i can add .CAB files i have tried using "ExtendedROMUnlocker 1 .arm" and this unhide the Extended Rom but I cant access the files inside they are read only still and the Unlock part of the tool generates an error. What else could i use and are there any tips you can give me.

Also we ideally would like all users information (Emails, contacts and calendar) stored to an SD card straight away, instead of the information stored on the device then having to backup... just encase they have a problem we can just send a new device and pull the information from the card.

Would that be a feasible idea?

cheers guys any info would be great!

Yep, but I also have knox frozen with titanium backup. 0/official

Please, can anyone else confirm this? I have been awaiting this news for some time now and just need a little more proof that I can safely run it on my Sprint SG4 with MF9.

Worked...but after reboot, Download mode shows Original, Binaries shows Custom, and phone status shows Custom. Triangle Away still shows 1. I am stock except for Hotspot mod.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rszimmer:
3.05 is working. Just ran it and counter has been rest. "Must be on a stock (Samsung) kernel,or you will soft-brick or boot-loop and will need to reflash your firmware."
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] patrockss:
Confirmation working but after first boot device status says scanning then goes back to custom.

I'm full stock rooted only, no mods.

So it's good to reset and flash to 100% stock it seems. Unless it is just something with my s4? If others can confirm this? Still happy that it works.

I'll freez knox and see what happens.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oscarthegrouch:
Like I said before, I'm running stock rooted odexed mf9 oudhs recovery and stock kernel. When I boot into download mode it says official official. Any other combinations of things that other people are running, could or could not work or work the same as me. Different kernels, recoveries, etc. I just checked in titanium backup and I have both Knox apps backed up but frozen so they're not running. Your mileage may vary. My counter, when triangle away polls it, used to be 4. Now it's 0. Like the warning screen in ta says, custom recoveries and kernels could muck things up. I took a chance with oudhs recovery and got the empty chamber.

For those thinking about changing recoveries, I've had zero problems since I first installed oudhs recovery. MDC, MDL and mf9. The only thing I see that might be missing is the ability to set the time and date for nandroid backups. I've flashed the hotspot mod before with no problems. I've flashed a custom ROM with no problems (I forgot which rom). I flashed a custom kernel and the reboot mod and the phone didn't like it. I don't think it's the Recovery's fault but I'm not certain. My phone could just be really picky about what custom things are on it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jejb:
Same results here, and I froze Knox before trying it. It did say all official on the first boot. So I guess this would be a way to get it official if you needed to for whatever reason, but you might have to install the stock recovery to get it to stick. I'm using the latest release of TWRP 2.6.5, I believe. MF9, stock rom, rooted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jejb:
I did a little more playing around with this. It stays all official as long as I don't go into TWRP. That always sets the binary back to 1.

If I cared more, I'd be tempted to load OUDHS again and try. But I like TWRP, so staying with it for now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oscarthegrouch:
Oudhs behaves the same way. It's not flashing something that trips the counter, it's going into custom recovery. Thanks for pointing that out. I just discovered something I didn't know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cwb1231:
i have Hotspot mod with MF9 and twp. if i go back to stook recovery can i get it to show stock on all settings or will the Hotspot Mod trigger the custom under settings for device status?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Always-Learnin:
This is my setup also...I think that rentering TWRP is tripping the counter as indicated above. Download Mode shows "Custom" Binaries and Status shows "Official." Under About Phone I still have 1.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oscarthegrouch:
Flashing in recovery doesn't trip the counter and change to custom, booting into custom recovery does. I booted into recovery and didn't flash anything and it tripped the counter.

So if you use recovery, just go back into triangle away and reset everything and it should stick (until you boot in recovery again).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cwb1231:
After TA I still have custom under device status. Is there any setting that will allow me to have this read official (apart from inheriting?)

---------- Post added at 07:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:26 PM ----------

Unrooting sorry for auto correct
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oscarthegrouch:
I have not used twrp for very long. I've read that some people had problems with previous versions. I don't know how stable it is now. It's your choice if you want to stay with that recovery or try another, just to get it to read Samsung official and zero flash count and stay that way after reboots (unless you go into into custom recovery that is).

Also, maybe the way I set my phone up might, or might not, have something that's different with yours. I did, with PC Odin, a full mf9 tar flash, chainfire root, then oudhs recovery. Before I rooted it, but after the main ROM flash, I did a full factory reset in the phone settings, in account section. I did a reboot into the normal phone running mode, then shut down after a couple minutes to let the installation settle down. I flashed the hotspot mod with custom recovery. I don't know if motochopper works because I've never used it. I've only ever used the chainfire PC Odin tar method. Just sharing this info so maybe, if anyone cares, we can possibly come up with what works and what doesn't and how the phone was flashed and set up. One person said they have twrp on stock rooted and it's working for them. Another person has a similar setup but it isn't working as good for them as it is with the first guy. More information given, easier to determine what is or isn't happening.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jejb:
Probably not. If running it does not set it to all official, assuming you've NOT gone into any kind of custom recovery since running TA, you may have some combination that will not allow it to be reset.

---------- Post added at 07:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:23 AM ----------

Correct. I was bored yesterday, so put OUDHS recovery back on and did some more testing. Same, same.

Yep. I do nandroid backups fairly often, so it would not be worth it to me to do this each time I came out of TWRP. But I can for sure see using, and am glad it's available, in case I ever need to worry about a warranty claim. Of course, I'd probably just go back to stock MDL or MF9 in that case anyway, I guess.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cwb1231:
thanks for the explanations. my knowledge level of rooting et al is that of a moderately well trained chimp. i can follow directions but not completely sure why i am doing something. i realize this is a little off topic but you have all been so helpful i will forge ahead. i am wondering why i need custom recovery rather than stock recovery. is it necessary because i am rooted or could i use the hotspot mod and then revert to stock recovery. i have no real desire to do any further tweaks (unless i can get this thing to pay my bills without charging my bank account). Also if my phone crashes and i wnat to bring it back for warranty do i need custom recovery in order to go back to stock rom or can i do that with stock recovery? thanks again.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] jejb:
Good questions. I've not used the stock recovery much, so not all that familiar with it. But the custom recoveries do give you options you don't have in the stock one. I don't think the stock one gives you the ability to do a Nandroid backup, for example (not sure on that, though).

Here's where you can get a .zip of the MF9 stock recovery, if you want to try it. You'd need to install it via your current recovery:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2357471

The stock recovery would install it from a .zip. But for sure you can use ODIN to do it from a .tar or .tar.md5 file. If you haven't used ODIN yet, install it on your PC and get familiar with it. Very easy to use.

EDIT: I just installed the MF9 stock recovery from the link above just to see. It does not have the backup/restore option, as I thought. Nandroid backups are awesome, too. TWRP also gives you a file manager, log export, fix permissions, ADB Sideload, terminal command, etc. So lots of nice tools compared to the stock. Stock only gives you a few "apply update" and wipe data/cache options.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] cwb1231:
thanks i did just install the stock recovery on my phone so i can restore if needed. i figured that it was pretty limited so keeping custom for now makes sense so i can make back ups. i am afraid to mess too much with anything because i won't know how to fix it if i crash it. i used odin to root and now have mobile odin so if i need to hopefully i can install the stock recovery if needed right from the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] oscarthegrouch:
As I've learned from my past mistakes, with this phone, which I continue to make from time to time, is to make a nandroid backup before flashing anything. Yeah it takes more time, but if something messes up, you have a backup ready of your most recent install and apps.
