You can open up your TA dump and look through it, there's a lot of plain text if you want to analyse it.

Parts of the data on the ta partition are stored twice. Unlocking removes some of it.

The data contains not only DRM keys but also simlock and bootloader unlock flags.

The ta partition itself is signed (prolly sha2). AFAIK the bootloader uses ARM TrustZone facilities to check the signature at boot. If this check fails you are boned! Your device probably won't even charge anymore and there is no way anyone will ever be able to fix that once it happened (permanent hardbrick)

There are lengthy threads containing loads of info, so don't take my word but use the search function ;)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sundaraaa:
Am I actually reading correctly?

The First post by [MENTION=5446542]secguy[/MENTION] clearly states that he wants to understand or know what does TA stand for?

All the posts here just says TA, but never explains why the name and what does it stand for? Does everyone understand English?

Without knowing what TA means, all the other information does not get into brain for many who wants to learn the basics.

Can someone please explain?

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dan37tz:
Okay so we all know the S4 for the US carriers had the auto correct feature disabled without any way to enable it (Thank you Apple). Installing an international keyboard resulted in extreme lag.

The big question is will the Note 3 keyboard suffer the same fate because of the Apple lawsuit? I know some of you dislike auto correct but for me typing without it is an infuriating mess. I like Swiftkey and the Android keyboard but I really like Samsung's number row at the top and would prefer to use that instead.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] V@no:
Perhaps N2 keyboard could be ported in case it's disabled?

Auto-correct isn't universally reviled?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stepinmyworld:
hmmm so nobody knows the answer to this one? I was about to make a thread and found this one thanks to the XDA feature before creating a thread, previous ones pop up....

But this questions sort of suggests that the International version of the Note 3 comes with auto correct within the new keyboard.... why would the US version not come with it? can someone confirm? i loved the Note 2's keyboard but it didnt have auto correction... just word prediction but you could not enable auto correct, press the space bar and continue typing on the keyboard... this should be a no brainer feature to have but for some reason, Samsung keeps finding a way to avoid adding it to the features..

again, can someone confirm? we'd appreciate it a lot :)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MohJee:
My phone is unbranded&unlocked and I bought it here in the Middle East so I have no idea what US or EU carriers will have.

But yes, it does come with auto-correct although they call it "auto-replacement".

Other included options: Auto-Capitalization, Auto-Spacing, Auto-Punctuate, Predictive Text Continuous Input, Character Preview etc...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] designgears:
The AT&T version most certainly has all the auto correct features you could ever want, even with hand written

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barnabydog:
Check this video at about 4:30:

It shows the handwriting autocorrect, if that's what you were asking about. I don't see why an AT&T device would have this feature omitted, but you know..."carriers"...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stepinmyworld:
he says auto correct feature works when writing words via the s pen so i guess it's safe to assume it works when typing on the keyboard and this is the snap dragon 800....nice and thank you

anyone else around Ocean County/on the shore of NJ experiencing that huge verizon outage? it's weird bc the samsung devices of my coworkers would stay on 1x moreso than mine..i'd get 0 bars and "no service." wonder if they do that so it doesn't drain as much battery..

anyway it's been since like 3pm and STILL no service at all over here. sucks.

*edit*

just got through finally...apparently a fiber line somewhere was cut, and 38 towers in NJ are down. damn, that's crazy. they've been working on it since around 3pm and have NO eta for when service will be back.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mackaby007:
Prices vary, but your best bet (if you don't want or have £675 + to spend on a new JasJar) is to look on Ebay. Some bids are starting at £300.00! But expect the reserve price to be above £500. Having said that, MDA Pro (T-mobile) are knocking them out on contract quite reasonably priced, which means that some JasJar owners might be letting theirs go soon for less than £600.00, but I wouldn't hold your breath! :cry:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Koksie:
The Dutch MDA Pro can be bought for about 800 euros, it is a WWE device. Only minor detail: simlocked to T-Mobile Netherlands, but some rumours say that when you buy a contract-free device, you only have to fax them your invoice to get the unlock code for free. I have however not tested this myself, so no guarantees for that!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] bn632189:
I got mine (assuming we are talking about the HTC Universal - I my case an imate JasJar) from expansys.com

I went for the £75 per month package which, due to the 50% line rental offer, is only £37.50 per month for a THOUSAND free minutes (on vodafone). This brought the price of the phone down to £117ish......

Hope that helps!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] bn632189:
PS -

1 I'm in the UK

2 the 50% line rental offer is only for 6 months, but I rang them to check and you can change your tariff after 6 months :)

3 The worst thing (no problem for me) is that the contract length is EIGHTEEN months.....

【Guide】How To flash ANY Captivate ROM from Stock (including ICS)

Replace ICS by JB and you have your answer taken right from the stickies.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebulletfromhell:
Quickie guide to installing ROMs.

1. Grab the desired ROM of choice. Cyanogenmod 10/Slimbean is a good start

2. Get the gapps for the ROM. http://goo.im/gapps/.

3. Get cyanogenmod7 from http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=captivatemtd

4. Get CWM here: http://www.semaphore.gr/kernels/Semaphore_2.5.0c.tar

5. Heimdall here: http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/. You don't need to install anything extra with 1.3.1

6. Copy the gapps, CM7 and your ROM of choice into the internal AND external SD card. Some rom comes with a kernel that don't play nice with either SD card, so both is better.

Install

7. Extract Heimdall, go into the driver folder, open Zadig.exe

8. Pull the battery of the phone, put it back in. Hold Volume Up + Volume Down and plug in the USB cable

9. Once Windows detect your phone, click on option -> List all device. Look for Gadget Serial Control, Samsung Composite Device or similar. If it look like your mouse/keyboard/webcam/other internal component, don't touch it. Click on Replace Driver, and wait for it to install.

10. Go back into the heimdall folder, hold shift, right click the folder and select open command prompt here.

11. Using 7zip/WinRAR, copy the content of the Semaphore_2.5.0c.tar file to the heimdall folder.

12. On the Command prompt, type:

heimdall flash --kernel zImage

13. Once your phone reboots, it should bootloop. No problem. Pull the battery, put it back in, hold volume up + volume down and press power until it turns on. You may need to do this a few time. It should boot into recovery mode.

14. Select install zip file from SD card -> Choose from Sd card -> the Cyanogenmod 7 file. Confirm with yes

15. It should reboot automatically, and bootloop. Do the pull battery trick from 13 to get back into recovery mode. Do 14 again. This time it shouldn't bootloop.

16. Go back to the main menu - Wipe Data/Factory Reset -> Reboot

17. Wait for it to boot.

18. Go back into recovery mode, and Wipe data/factory reset again. Install the ROM of your choice, along with the gapps. Newer ROM should ask you to flash it again to confirm. Do it.

19. Reboot

20. Enjoy

As for the GB vs ICS vs JB issue:

GB gives you the best performance. You don't have to loose your 3D performance to compensate for RAM. ICS is the best of both world. Slim ICS run (almost) as fast as GB, have the smexy Holo UI without compromising your 3D performance. JB give you the most features, but you'll have to give up your VRAM + 720p Video Recording/Playing(Devil kernel can give you back enough for 720p, but you still loose the VRAM).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
ICS is actually not recommended around here due to the EU bug. It happened on so many devices so it really comes down to GB vs JB. JB has way more features while GB is a retro/stable OS.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebulletfromhell:
Actually, JB have the bug as well(see the last 10 pages of the thread, 2-3 reports). At least IMO, the reason there are little reports for JB is:

1. Its been nearly 3 years, most people got a new phone through contract

2. The hardcore modders already got the EU bug, and thus is using JB

3. The remaining population stick with GB to prevent it from happening altogether\

The most likely cause for the bug is something in ICS/JB along with the age of our hardware.

Looking at your thanks meter, you have less than 5% useful information in your posts.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebulletfromhell:
BigMem = Taking from your VRAM. Less VRAM - Worse 3D performance. You can take less and still have 720p, but your 3D performance will suffer in comparison. Same as with the old 10mb hack for the Dream'/Sapphire.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Val D.:
Not exactly true. 3D performance is a function of graphics chip rendering speed and drivers optimization. Less RAM affects only the ability to store data. You may see some reduced performance in heavy 3D graphics, but Captivate with it's single core CPU is not a gaming device anyway. For general use there is no difference in performance. Android UI does not use 3D rendering by default.

This video is a compariosn of the GN3 vs. the GN2. How come the GN2 screen looks bigger than the GN3?

GN3 screen seems taller, but also narrower than the GN2. This makes me think GN2 screen looks bigger.

Other people have also commented on this. Thoughts?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ARTAQaf:
yep, same thing as the vids of the Gnote next to the Gnote2...Gnote 2 is taller and narrower. to me the Gnote screen looks bigger than the Gnote 2 for the same reason.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] starrscream22:
your right. GNote was like 83 mm wide, GNote 2 is like 80.5 wide, and GNote 3 is like 79.2 mm wide.

Why are they getting narrower? I like the bigger width of the first 2 GNotes.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] BarryH_GEG:
It's an optical illusion and the reduction in overall width was accomplished by narrowing the bezel. Based on the below, the display itself is actually marginally wider as well as being taller.

The resolution on the N2 is 720x1280 which means the display is 720 pixels wide by 1,280 pixels tall which is the standard 16:9. The N3 is 1080x1920, also 16:9. The vertical and horizontal increase is exactly equal (33%) which means to hit 5.7" (and the increased resolution) the display expanded proportionately horizontally and vertically. Every 1080x1920 display has the same vertical and horizontal proportions no matter what device it's used in as 16:9 (not counting soft keys) is pretty much standard. The N3 and SGS4 have the same pixel measurements (1080x1920) which explains why the SGS4 is 441PPI and the N3 is 386. They have the same number of pixels but the pixels on the N3 are stretched out to cover the larger sized display which reduces the PPI.

Here's an example of one device that doesn't. The Optimus Vu is 768x1024 (4:3).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] starrscream22:

It's just that you didn't flashed a patched hboot like juopunutbear/revolutionary hboot

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Misterjunky:
re: screen on

Go into Settings>More>Developer's options> and select "Stay Awake".

If you do not see the "developers options" then click on "About Device"

and then scroll down to "Build Number" and keep clicking "build number"

until you see "developer mode" turned on... (enabled)

Once you see that go back to "Settings>More>Developers options and check mark "stay awake".

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Michowski:
Thank you, solves on problem. Now if I could just get landscape mode to work while docked id be happy. My apps go into it but not my homescreen which makes it annoying to keep rotating the phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Misterjunky:
re: landscape mode

The stock launcher will not go into landscape mode.

You need to find a different launcher which has the ability to go into landscape mode.

There are a lot of launchers which have that feature.

I don't know exactly which launchers have that feature, but there are a lot of them.

Just go to the playstore and download a bunch of launchers, most of them are free

downloads and see which ones have the home screen in landscape feature.

After you select the one you want to use, just uninstall all the others.

Good luck!

p.s. clicking on the THANKS button is free too :)

iBOLT Dock mode...

Hi there. To get the most out of your iBOLT car dock, download the app Dock'n Drive from Google Play store, link here... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ibolt.carhome Watch the video too as it will give you more information. Most important is to go into "settings-accessory" and select the "DockMode". If you setting has "screen rotate" on it will work exactly as in the video.

If there's no "Accessory" settings it usually means that you have purchased an S4 directly from Google. In this case you do not have the Samsung Dock Mode installed as the Google phones include only Android generic firmware. In this case you need to download and install the Sound Redirect app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.muteheadlight.dockredir and it will simulate DockMode. Once this App is installed and you insert the iBOLT cable you can select "audio out" etc. as if you had an original Samsung.

To make the screen stay on you can go into "settings" in the Dock'n DRive app and select for the screen to stay on. You can also set Bluetooth to start automatically when you insert the phone into the dock. WiFi can be turned of automatically when inserted and back on again when removing the phone.

I hope the above information helps? Enjoy your car-dock! MP from iBOLT
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Michowski:
