[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] negatong:
I just tried to upgrade my MDA Compact from German ROM to English ROM. Downloaded the latest O2 Asia English ROM from FTP, then used NoID EXE to upgrade.

After step 1 of upgrading Radio was completed, error message 'EXTROM Upgrade Error' raised, then, the MDA only stayed in Bootloader. No matter matter how many times I re-tried, it failed before step 2 of upgrading the Extended ROM.

I tried SD Card Flashing method. But it was no way to read the ROM (with using Romupdate.exe) successfully.

Anybody could help? Really need your advice. Thanks!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Cherek:
Be sure your battery is fully loaded. I think, that was my problem when I tried to upgrade. During bootloader mode, your Magician will NOT charge through the USB Cable.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] negatong:
I used a fully charged battery (charged by another MDA) for upgrade. Problem still existed. Any further suggestion? Thanks!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Cherek:
Nope, maybe you can try another ROM?

BTW.Did you charge it between creating your ROM backup and your upgrade? Cause creating a backup also cost battery power, and if you don't charge between the failures, your battery will also be drained. I finally let my battery charge for about 1,5 hours on the normal adapter and after that mine did work. But like I said, maybe you should try a different ROM.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] negatong:
I tried several different ROMs, but failed again and again. Even using SD flashing method, error of 'Download Fail' occurred after pressing Power button to try to load the ROM image from the prepared SD card.

Any help there? Is my MDA totally dead?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] negatong:
I tried at least 5 different language ROMs, but failed all the time.

Seems there is no way out.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] quylovelife:
Hic ! I have the same error, so my XDA mini dead too ! hic

anybody can help me ??
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] Ultimate Chicken:
Hmm. The one thing I can think of is that seems to happen if you try flashing a device *with the SIM card still inside*. Take out the sim card - heck, take out the memory card as well, unless you're using *that* to flash, and try again.

Funnily enough, I didn't run into this problem while I was on my old Mini, both original ROMs and BigStorage - but I see this quite often when trying to flash my Atom (message "Extended Rom Format Fail").

What I did was to ensure everything 'cept the battery was out, and to keep on trying until it goes right past flashing 6% of the extROM. >_>

(BTW: if you can find it, and don't mind having to go CAB hunting, go BigStorage. IIRC you'll skip the extROM bit. Eheh.)
[Moto X Q&A] WolfsFang:
So I just sent a group message too two people and was hoping the stock SMS app would support group messaging. But to my surprise when someone replies back to group I get a single txt from that person and not in the group message. One person has a S4 and the other has a Iphone 5. Is there a fix for this or am I just left off installing the CM messaging app?
[Moto X Q&A] murso74:
Use MMS for group texts
[Moto X Q&A] WolfsFang:
I have it checked and it only sends the message to everyone but I do not receive messages back in the group.
[Moto X Q&A] Karchikumar:
Use group SMS or try using some messengers...
[Moto X Q&A] WolfsFang:
Can anyone confirm if the CM messenger has working group?

[Moto X Q&A] bso44:
Give Textra a try. It's my favorite SMS app and group MMS works great.
[Moto X Q&A] yamaha83:
i used the stock SMS app for group text all the time with no issue. groups as large as 10 people no issue. im running the CM SMS app now for the added features and yes, it works perfectly as well.
[Moto X Q&A] ayoo456:
My stock messaging does group

moto X
[Moto X Q&A] stillthisguy:
More than likely this issue is caused by the iPhone 5 response, I have received group messaging with other android users fine, but throw an iPhone user in the mix and you start to get individual texts back. When I was running CM10.2 on my DNA they were able to get this fixed, but I think the iPhone 4's responses were still coming back as individual.
[Moto X Q&A] minhaferzz:
It could also be that the person responding is using an app that doesn't support group MMS. When they respond they only respond to you.
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
and to add to all the problems. AT&T and VZW use different formats for their messages so things get tricky there. Also the older iphones and the newer iphones use different text message formats. This is why if you send a big text to a vzw customer it will show up often as an entire block but if it is an AT&T customer it will break it up into the 179 (or however many) characters.

This is also the reason that if you send a long text to an older iphone it will come in not in the same order as you sent it on their phone. I looked into all of this because I use mightytext so i send long text from my computer a lot and people with older iphones on AT&T always get jumbled messages.

The entire system is just crap but its not worth the making a uniformed format because it would cost money and not enough people complain or know about all the issues. IMHO.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] skavis:
I know this issue has been spoken of in other posts, but nothing exactly like the issue I am having and all I have read are not with the s4

I am on factory stock Rogers firmware. I337MVLUAMG1 unrooted. "Not registered on network" is keeping me from doing anything. I can access wifi and all my APN settings are correct. Nothing in my phone looks wrong or out of place.

I have tried 2 new sim cards and that certainly isnt the issue.

My imei and serial are reporting a.ok

Phone was unlocked from rogers and previously being used with bell all with no problems.

I did try some custom roms before heading back to this and thinking perhaps something got screwed up. I inserted my sim after installing omega rom v11 and it has not worked. that was the first time I even tried a sim in the phone. So it has never worked since I got it. Which sucks because I don't know if it was something I did or something that was already in place.

I have done a factory reset with data from settings in the phone and also from stock recovery.

I have removed the battery, sim and restarted. Doesn't help.

Phone says "not registered on network" when trying to make calls and says unregistered sim card when dropping down notification bar.

Any ideas? Help? ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Edit: Ok, after some heaving reading I think the issue lays with the update to Omega v11. I think it changed the efs file structure to a new format and I need to use a newer modem to access it the new format properly.

Can anyone please let me know an mg4 or acceptable modem that would allow me to test this theory and if I can just flash the modem with the stock firmware.

Once again its an i337m currently running rogers I337MVLUAMG1. IMEI + serial working fine but no network access. Looking for a modem that will work with this setup to see if I can access a modified efs folder.

Information of modified efs was read here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2377731

Answer...... NO!

!!!LESSON TO BE LEARNED HERE! BACK UP YOUR EFS FOLDER!!!!

If you are reading this and never done it... DO IT NOW!

It is a simple thing to overlook. I have been flashing roms for over 2 years and not once have I back it up... New S4.... not so good. Just sent for repair.

Now I wait to get the phone back so I can play with it again :(

BACK UP YOUR EFS
[G2 General] nguyentomquoc:
Just thought that I would share this since mine turned out pretty good. I plasti dip my back cover and then painted it. Turned out really good and does not effect my wireless charging. What do you guys think? Oh yeah, it can be peeled off if since the plasti dip is the first layer.
[G2 General] IamPro:
I think you should have picked a better color :p

Looks good, hows the grip?
[G2 General] lumpysherman:
Does it affect the IR blaster?
[G2 General] nguyentomquoc:
When you take the cover off there is actually a plastic piece on the top of the cover where the IR sensor would be. Take that piece out before you do anything and then just put it back when you are done. Will not effect IR Blaster.
[G2 General] nguyentomquoc:
My phone my color :p

It really looks good in person. The grip is great. It wont slide around if it was on a smooth surface. It really feels like a really high end battery cover.
[G2 General] ericdabbs:
Ummm...I still prefer the stock look since that material doesn't look like it would be as comfortable.
[G2 General] MasK:
May I know why ya had to paint and plasti-Dip?

Is plasti-Dip enough?

Also, is removing the back cover that easy? I'm having doubts on my international set..

Btw, thanks for posting the pics!
[G2 General] nguyentomquoc:
I plasti dip first so if I decided to take it off it would come off easy since the first layer is plasti dip and not just paint. You can definitely just use plasti dip but be aware that it might not last as long since you are constantly putting it you pocket. The edges might start to come off. After I painted the cover with a couple of coats, I also did a couple of coats of clear finish on it just to make sure.

Removing the back cover on my Verizon LG G2 was very easy. I picked a corner and was able to pull away the corner just enough to slide a plastic wedge in, and then i slowly and patiently moved it along the sides separating the cover from the phone. Just be careful and go slow and you shouldnt have any problems.
[G2 General] kraamerica:
I wish I had the testicular fortitude to even think about trying it. Glad it worked out for you as that back has to be my one and only annoyance with the phone (other than the small buttons - but wireless charging is a nice trade off if that's what it took).

So I reflashed DU after trying out CM 10.1 for a couple weeks and suddenly my phone freezes. After rebooting, my phone doesn't get past the Galaxy S2 logo so I decided to start up recovery and in recovery mode I notice several errors appear.

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

In recovery I wasn't able to reflash the rom or even restore my backup! I then decide to restore to EL29 using Odin OC root but now it's stuck at Set Partition. I've retried Odin in different usb ports and with different cables and nothing changes. Does anyone have any Ideas as to what has happened and a fix for this?

^ #SWAG

Well the drivers (I pressume) are the drivers which they had uploaded earlier on MadTeam forum. XDA had posted an article earlier that Broadcom has released drivers for Galaxy Y(Regarding the drivers which were uploaded on MadTeam)

My point is that, Softpedia might have uploaded the drivers on their page without knowing the background story (i.e.. that the drivers are utterly useless).

Hope if someone could test it out and report. For me, I do not own a Galaxy Y anymore, so it is impossible for me to test it out.

Current Broadcom are concentrating on releasing mid range devices with Samsung and few Chinese companies with no scope of getting a stable Cyanogenmod.

I doubt that Broadcom will ever release the drivers.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] saintnosunshine:
I have been running Shell's CM 10.1 builds for quite awhile with no major issues, and I updated to his 10.2 nightly (8/30 build), and now when I connect my LGOG to my PC it is not recognized when I turn on MTP. I tried turning on/off USB debugging, uninstalling/reinstalling LG drivers (and updating to latest 3.10.1.0) and no dice.

I thought maybe it was an issue with the unofficial build, so I restored to a 10.1 build, then copied down and flashed the official CM 10.2 nightly (9/22 build) and GAPPS 4.3 again, and am still having the same problems. In device manager LG-LS970 shows up, but the properties has the following message

The drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28)

There is no driver selected for the device information set or element.

Camera (PTP) mode works fine. And when I have MTP mode enable, and turn on USB debugging, I have both LG-LS970 and MTP devices showing up in my Device Manager Tree under Other Devices (with warnings about drivers not being installed), but nothing in my file system :(

Does anyone have any ideas? I am REALLY happy with the 10.2 builds, except for this issue.

Default [Q] Kies won't connect to phone! HELP!! :)

Hey everyone, my first post to the Forums!! I am new to the android scene, finally got rid of my iPhone5 for a GS4. The guy I bought the phone from has Kangabean installed, i was reading around on the forum for a few days before deciding to post this question.

I'm trying to back up my phone using Kies, and my phone will not connect. It shows the connecting part, recognizes my GT-I9505G and then spins endlessly. Basically i would like to put my phone back to a stock ROM and start from scratch.

Here is what i have done: Hopefully i didn't mess anything up?!?!

#1 installed Kies from the Samsung website.

#2 connected my phone with no success.

#3 tried 3 different cables

#4 ran the connection error and reinstalled the drivers 3 or 4 times now.

#5 removed Kies and tried to re-install the program

#6 used Super U? and removed the root (read somewhere on the forum about this)

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

The longer people wait after the MF3 update came out, to get a device - the more likely you are to get one with it on. Getting one this far out, odds are high that it's going to have MF3.
