[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Spoofing status on mi3 worked to get the ota but leaves you with mi5 no root and status custom.

But still knox 0x0

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] viddywell:
Apologies for what I'm sure is a noob question but this sounds like a different approach that may work from what I've been trying and failing at. I'm running stock rom, with root (Freeza's stock deodex). Build shows MI5, Baseband MI3.

I've tried a few times using Odin to re-apply the stock MI3 Tar file and factory resetting. Everything goes well, I get the update message, but I continually receive the "Your system has been modified" message. Tried with and without SD card and multiple Factory resets from stock recovery.

It sounds like you're saying there's a way to spoof status as not modified to apply the MI5 update and get the baseband up? Can you point me in the direction of that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
Yea it's fairly simple.

Use wanam xposed.

You can get it from the market.

You also have to install the xposed framework the link for that is on the market page.

Then just use wanam go to security and click report status as official.

That let me upgrade from mi3 to 5 but I lost root after.

I'm actually on MI5 and when I flashed the odex file, it did not work. I can in fact activate the wifi and we see it, I'm able to connect, but it tells me that there's no internet access.

Is there any additional settings that I need to go through to make this work?

--

Nevermind I got it to work, this vs the old hotspot was not THAT intuitive. If you allow all you still gotta allow the device for the first time. =/ Ahh well, my ignorance -- sorry about that.

Odex'd version works perfectly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] viddywell:
Thanks for the quick reply - I have the framework/module installed and the option to show as "Offical" but I'm still getting the modified message. I'll have to play with it some more tonight. Appreciate the pointer to a new direction to get this solved.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
I had to...

Xposed installer > framework > install update

Then toggle the hack on off and reboot twice.

That seemed to do it for me the few times it wouldn't stick

[MENTION=744737]JoshBeach[/MENTION] [MENTION=912863]strongsteve[/MENTION] Big THANKS too the both of you for your outstanding work on this. I'll be donating a taken of my appreciation. Cheers!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rdcrds:
Again sorry if a noob question but i seen no 100% answer for this question.

I am stock right out of the box and i rooted it. Now i downloaded the odexd mod so do i do like back in my old evo days of flashing and put this in the root of the phone go into recovery and flash it? then rebooted/

Do i have the right 1 for a stock 100% except i rooted it the Odexed and am i doing it right flashing by putting it on the root directory of the phone and flash it in recovery?

Thanks in advanced it has been like 2 years since i flashed and it was a little different back then.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
If your stock and root.odex would be the way to go.

You must also have a custom recovery such as TWRP.

Then put the file on SD

And flash in recovery as normal.

From my Note 3 using Tapatalk

can also confirm odex version works great on vega knox free root now that we have mi5

just needed to copy files over manually.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Kompster:
Correct. Flash the odex hotspot mod via TWRP. Just make sure you're on MI5 firmware.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Tekara:
Odex version worked like a champ for me, thank you for the work!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rdcrds:
Thanks have it all now just have to put it on my card later and ill be done. I am going to wait i think for awhile for the Roms to be more stable before leaving stock and let them add all these goodies to them :_
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Kompster:
The JellyBomb ROM is pretty stable but trust your instincts, they're there for a reason.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] BrianBaker:
So it's working great! Im on Odex and just moved the files over manually instead of loading a custom recovery...

Thank you!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] crawrj:
First of all I don't have the Note 3, I have the S4, so do this at your own risk. However I am pretty confident that it won't hurt anything. Just make a backup to be safe.

If you are missing the hotspot option try this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44779759&postcount=199. *Can someone that has the option check what yours says to make sure it is the same as in the instructions. If not please post what yours says.

This guide should work for adding the hotspot option to the toggles.

Good deal. The first tutorial may help those that don't have the option at all in settings. It worked for several people on the S4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] spunky2008:
I am trying the same thing but the newly copied file is always renamed to services - copy.jar and services - copy.odex automatically...

Do you know the correct procedure to "overwrite"?

I am using root browser and changed the permission of the framwork folder to add "writing" firstly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] mjcollum:
You may give another file browser a shot. I used es file explorer to copy mine.

Use root explorer to push the modded jar and odex into system framework. Then set permissions accordingly and reboot.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] farrenicus:
Yeah, 20 apps max for reading mode. It positively reeks of artificial limitation. I use reading mode more often than not as it's a total eye-saver, so this limit of 20 apps really isn't working for me.

From my searching it seems no one else has cared enough to mention this. My N3 is rooted and I'm wondering how likely an Xposed tweak is for this. It certainly seems doable at the very least. I seriously doubt the limit is necessitated by some GUI limitation. Either the configuration is a fixed size (unlikely) or it's an Applescent '20 just because' soft cap.

If this is better suited for a more generalized subforum just let me know. From what I can tell it's a basic 4.3 feature, but I'm not sure it's enabled on all 4.3 devices.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] TeflonTron:
Hey guys.

I'm just about up for an upgrade with O2 from my XDAs (which I adore, even though I use like 10% of its capabilities!!) but the problem is that I'm living in the US now. So, I really want the Exec, as it'll save me lugging a laptop about, but am worried that it'll get uber expensive to run here, due to crazy roaming costs.

I'm thinking about changing my tarrif over to a "Data Only" with 5mb per month, at some 8 Pounds a month, but am I right in saying that as soon as I log on to GPRS in the US that I'll be charged "Roaming" fees and that my 5mb will go untouched? If so, is there anyway to get around this, as I like the look and the functionality of the Exec, but don't really have a desire to fork out $1000 for one! Are there going to be any compatability issues in using a UK handset as a main device in the US? Are O2 going to let me swop from my 200 Minutes plan to an Online plan that costs just 8 Pounds? Are there any requirements to being a "Business User"? I've Emailed O2, but to say that they were unhelpful is a huge understatement and then some!!

Lastly: can I play Java games on it/my XDA? Whenever I go to an onlione store with Java games, all of the handsets I see are Motorola and Nokia, etc, and never an XDA. I'm asuming that it must be able to play them, but does anyone have any comments or tips on the process? Thanks guys.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] drwwalker:
Why dont you just use a sim card from the US depending on where you go you can just buy a sim card if your phone is unlocked hope that help
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] TeflonTron:
Hmm. Okay, I think that that would make sense (tbh, I hadn't thought of that!). Okay, is the Exec unlockable? If so, how does one go about it? IE: is it an easy process?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gadgetgirl:
The Exec should already be unlocked: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=30330
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] zillocx:
yes all execs are unlocked. I have a spare one if you are willing to buy.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] TeflonTron:
Hi GadgetGirl: thanks for the tip and link. I'll check it out.

Zillocx: thanks man, but I already have a line on one. Thanks for the offer though. :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Triband81:
Teflon,

be sure to consider a T-Mobile USA SIM since T-Mobile uses GSM 1900 only which is the only US band that the Exec supports. Cingular uses GSM 850/1900 in most major US markets so you'd experience inconsistent since the Exec doesn't have GSM 850. T-Mobile USA is also the best US GSM network to use for data. They have unlimited data plans if you sign a contract with them. If I recall correctly, the unlimited plans run between $19.99 and $49.99 (Unlimited Internet Plan) per month.

http://www.t-mobile.com/services/webandinfo.asp (T-Zones Mobile Web Plan, $5.99/month)

http://www.t-mobile.com/plans/default.asp?tab=internet
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] BrettS:
I use a universal (Jasjar) and I live in the US, so I can tell you that it's definitely worthwhile:) I can also give you a bit of advice about a service provider...

Your two options for GSM providers are T-Mobile and Cingular. Like Triband said, T-Mobile only uses 1900MHz, so you know you'll get a signal as long as T-Mobile has coverage there. Cingular uses both 850MHz and 1900MHz, so you can run into some issues with Cingular. Generally, however, in the cities and more populated areas Cingular will have 1900MHz coverage while rural areas are more likely to be 850MHz only. Overall Cingular has better coverage then T-Mobile, but unfortunately there are no maps or anything available to consumers that show where they have 1900MHz coverage and where it is only 850MHz. I'm using Cingular with my Jasjar and I've had very few coverage problems.

Prepaid service in the US is considerably more than it would be with a contract, so if you're going to be in the US for a while, or you will be using your phone a lot you might not want to go prepaid (although I'm sure its much less than international roaming). Here Cingular has an advantage because they'll let you sign a month to month contract where you can cancel whenever you want. With T-Mobile you must sign a contract for a full year.

Please let me know if you have any other questions:)

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cktlcmd:
Hi BrettS, where did you bought the Jasjar?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] BrettS:
I got mine from Expansys USA http://www.expansys-usa.com/

Brett
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] TeflonTron:
Hey guys,

Well, I just got married, so I'll be living in the US on a permanent basis. I'm towards the East Coast (New Haven, to be exact). My wife is American, and she's with Cingular, so that may be the way to go as calls between us would be free, from what she tells me. I'll do some detailed research into it, although further comments would be appreciated. I'll check out those links too. Now, if I can just get O2 to stop being such asses I'll be a happy man!!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] cktlcmd:
Do they have warranty on it or does I-mate honor the warranty no matter where you bought the unit? I saw that the I-mate Phone store has it too for 1200 USD. Why did you not bought it from them and opted for expansysUSA?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] lpsi2000:
cktlcmd,

I have a Jasjar as well and I also got it from expansys. I use expansys because I purchased the previous two devices (XDA, I-mate PocketPC Phone ) from them. During my purchase of the Pocket PC phone, I original got the Qtek 2020 and I was not happy. They took it back and sent me the I-mate version without any issues. Overall all accessories and devices purchased from them have been a good experience. In all cases they did honor their 15 days policies if the product did not perform as expected.

Teflon, I am using Cingular and they seems to have the best coverage for GSM in the US. I am located in the East Coast.

Since I'm growing tired of the baked in tones, I'd like to hear which ones all of you like. Hoping we can share the files through here as well. So, what's your favorite notification tone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] donnyp1:
Excuse me boss, from zedge
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SdRasta:
Yeah zedge is a good app for ringtones/notifications unless you use a song you like..but with notifications I like to just keep it simple with some catchy tone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] carngeX:
I've had the same notification tone for texts for about 5 years now. It's a cougar growl/roar. Nobody else has it that I know, so I know it's definitely my phone that went off. Also it's funny to see the reactions of people when they hear it go off lol. Always along the lines of "there's a cougar in your pants!"

Awesome ideas, just what I was hoping for. Thanks button for all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] papadelogan:
+1 for Zedge. I have a few different sounds downloaded, and some songs. I don't switch up too often, but it's a great app for getting what you want. I'd avoid "fart noise" type notifications unless you're under 12 and/or are determined to be single NOT by your choice.

I just purchased an xperia ultra c6802 , i love the device but every time i make a call the screen will just turns off, i have to press the power button twice to turn the screen on . I don't have a screen protector and it still have the original anti shatter film . I tried somewhere to dial a special set of number to get into the service menu to calibrate the proximity sensor but it just gives me an error . Please help me solve this annoying glitch and will the firmware update fix this issue . Im worried that this device have a defective proximity sensor. :eek:

Mine is doing the same thing. One time i made a call and my phone was on speaker phone by default. The screen was on till i turned speaker phone off. I think it has something to do with the headphone jack, i read somewhere that inserting then removing headphones did the trick. I Havent tried it yet though
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] bASKOU:
If calibration give you an error, try to repair the firmware with PC Companion or SEUS. If doing so doesn't fix your problem I advise you to see with your retailer.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mywingtophone:
I was able to calibrate the sensor by using the service menu , the sensor is working as it turns on and off when i block it with my hand but now its not turning off when im on a call
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jewelkobayashi:
While you are calibrating, I hope you have done the following...

before starting, make sure the screen is clean, and that the sensor is not obstructed.

Place on a flat surface where there is no movement.

make sure the room is well lit and bright.

Start the calibration by pressing start, and make sure you or nothing else is nowhere near the phone (or shall I say above the phone, where it is sitting)

IF being careful during calibration still fails you, then you might have a physical problem.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTC>Samsung:
Hello everybody,

I am considering rooting my htc one, but I have a few questions about returning to stock and rooting before I do.

Edit: When I say I want to return to stock, I want to be able to receive and install ota updates from optus.

1. If I make a nandroid backup straight after I root the phone can this be used to return to stock if I reflash stock recovery or do I have to flash ruu?

2. Is there anything else I need to go back to stock if the above method does not work? Where can I find the optus ruu?

3. When rooting with the all in one toolkit, do I select att htc one or international htc one? I have a HTC One 801s that is locked to Optus in australia.

Thanks in advance, if I do root my htc one, I'll probably only be flashing roms if that matters. My phone is an australian HTC One 801s that is locked to Optus.
