[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andomar:
In Odin you can flash 4 different things:

- bootloader

- pda

- phone

- csc

My question is if you can flash these independently, or if each has to be attuned to the other. For example would it hurt to patch "phone" and "csc" from XXUMBJ3 over Omega ROM 3.1 (which comes with XXUMBJ1)

If that's a confusing question, please let me know how I can improve the question. :)
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] av4tar:
Had a quick search online and in xda but couldn't find much, few posts on a forum elsewhere.

I'm running nova launcher and can change my home wallpaper with ease. The lock screen is a different matter.

From settings > personalisation > lock screen

I can change to any of the standard Sony wallpapers, if I try and use my own it never changes. Anyone else found this? Have I missed something obvious :s

On .534 as no update for me yet, and no requirement to root yet.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashirokung:
i think this problem on nova launcher. becuase i use go launcher i can change my own pict on lock screen.

try go launcher, i very reccoment go launcher + go notification. with little setting your phone will fast and smooth(i has been use apex after try go ex, i never looking to other >< just my oponion.)
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] av4tar:
Nah, just cleared the defaults and rebooted. Using the standard Sony home, still can't select any other 3rd party or user wallpaper.

I'll try go in a bit, but if even stock software can't change it then it looks to be a bug?

Edit: no change, didn't think it would. Prefer nova over go from that short test but something to play around with.

Looks like an android issue than launcher
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashirokung:
any locksceen app installed?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] av4tar:
None at all

I use pattern unlock and the stock lock screen
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashirokung:
try to use swipe unlock?

but i has try pattern, i can change my lockscreen bg.

may be something wrong on your setting/rom.

sorry...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] av4tar:
Yep, tried that as well. It's stock and not rooted. I've no want to root yet.

Which fw are you on? 534?

Nothing major, I just like to know why Somethings not working etc
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashirokung:
factory reset, if not help, flash firmware again...
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koolbeanz426:
I'm also running nova launcher and stock .534 but i haven't had a problem switching wallpapers on the lockscreen. I've used camera generated photos and zedge wallpapers.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] av4tar:
Sorted it.

I use quickpic as an album replacement app. Cleared the defaults and use the Sony album to crop then pictures and working as it should.

Something between quickpic and the os which didn't talk well I guess.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koolbeanz426:
Glad it worked out for you. :thumbup:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Imprezive13:
After I've updated having major problems with apps completely freezing up. Notification light blinking for no reasons. After multiple restarts I've had it with this phone. Is it Possible to go back to ME7?

Cannot open spotify app without getting security shield wanting to reboot my phone and comes back after reboot. PLease need some help wiht this getting very frustrated with this phone
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Crawshayi:
Nope from what I understand it's just like ME7... once you're on it there's no turning back. If I were you I'd Odin the stock MI1 image and do a factory reset to see if that helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] azraell33:
Do a factory reset first then try odin. Just what I would do. Just seems a bit safer that way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] patt2k:
for me it's actually opposite.

on ME7 contacts app used to just lock up and force close with the update nothing. ZIP works just fine.

hi,

to test the compatibility with "usb audio recorder pro" i have just successfully connected a freelander px2 with a behringer uca 200

after doing "framaroot":selekting "SuperSU"

and check t it with "root checker" .

i think many people will be happy to hear that.

did somebody have success connecting the freelander without rooting?
[Android General] Di Ordna:
Freelander PX2 Rooted

Sorry if not quite the right answer - However, my comment may help someone - rooting my PX2 was easier than I expected. One step was to transfer framaroot.apk to my PX2 and then I ran the apk and selected super su and it installed and after re boot it was installed and I was able to deal with some files in the never seen before areas of the px2. that i wanted to adjust. and thats all...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] FishFan319:
So I'm an N4 owner just tinkering. Not much knowhow (Managed to follow guides to root and unlock my phones from the G1 to the N1 to today, but still slow on the uptake) but will try!

The tab is an "MID Tablet PC", generic Chinese A13 thing, came with 4.0.4 i think. No model number details in the box. I did enough searching to find that I'm not the first person to have this issue, but didn't find a sol'n.

I got it to boot into recovery ONCE after trying all day yesterday. I think it had to do w/ recognizing windows. No button combos seemed to do the trick (pow/vol etc). Don't know how I did it tbh. Once I was there i figured I'd use ADB to factory reset, but I hadn't even set up adb with it on and could get it to boot to bootloader, or factory reset, so I figured I'd wipe data, but I might've messed up with "Wipe All", and now need something to flash to it even if i CAN get it back to recovery...

Right now I get a small android icon, followed by a green splashscreen that would've lead to the old scrolling "android" screen, but now has no OS. I can get it recognized with ADB! ADB Reboot/bootloader/recovery all take me to the main splashscreen though

Downloaded a CWM copy if needed, and an original rom (for Q88 found online)

[Moto X Q&A] anotherfiz:
I have a VZW moto X with locked bootloader , currently rooted using MotoRoot (jcase's first root option)

I know that motoroot and pwnmymoto will not work post-OTA upgrade.

I currently only use root for TiBu to backup a few things and disable the system stuff that i do not use.

My question is: Will the OTA (when it comes) kill all of those disables if i remove root?

Is there any way to keep motoroot or pwnmymoto through the OTA with OTA rootkeeper?
[Moto X Q&A] capathy21:
There's a thread here in q and a that is a tutorial on how to keep root and update.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Largan:
I just hit the restart button and it won't turn back on. Took out the battery/s-pen/sd card/sim for a while and nothing. Not rooted or have been. Can't access any type of recovery or download mode. When ever i try to charge the phone there is no notification that the battery is charging. It died on me around 90ish percent.

Any idea whats wrong?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Agent:
Have you tried booting without the SD card installed?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Largan:
Yes. removed everything except for the battery and still to no avail.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenemortem88:
Sounds crazy. But in my experience when that happens. Sometimes it can be a bad battery (go to a place and test a new battery) If it powers on, try making sure the device charges. If it does not, then it is definitely dead. Worth a shot thats for sure. Sorry to hear about your bad experience. I as well had a bad brand new in the box Note 3. And let me tell you I have had my fair share of phones. It was the first time in my life I had a DOA on a cell phone. Basically I had touch issues. And would start freezing and flipping out without me doing anything. I hope it gets resolved for you.

PS - Wanted to add if you got your device within 14 days. Demand they replace it with your carrier. If for some stupid reason they do not budge. You do have a warranty. And Samsung should be able to check the device out if it was a DOA. IE If they open it up and see not foul play (Water Damage, physical damage etc) You should be ok.

Best of luck.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Largan:
I have no idea what happened to my phone. After pulling the battery and trying constantly for over an hour. It just turned on. I hope I never have to deal with that again. My two week return period is coming up soon. Thanks for the help guys. Cheers.

Edit: nevermind it just shut back off and doing it again. Taking it back to at&t.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inmotion:
Mine did this just now. Reproduced by using Samsung link to transfer movies from my pc to the sd card on my note 3. Odd to say the least
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Largan:
Just got back from att. They replaced the phone no problem. Was within my two week return. Hopefully I do not encounter this problem again :mad:. Next time i will have to send it to Samsung for repair. That will take a month on its own.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armus:
I has this when I first got the phone and did some digging. I think it has to do with the Google sync. The s4 folks ran into it too. I solved my problem by switching to my contacts on a different account.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Joey121215:
I bought my phone on launch day at Best Buy for 350. It was a lot and I was upset that Sprint was charging more than other characters, but I figured I'd just deal with it. After that I heard a couple reports of people getting the phone price hatched for 250. So yesterday (the end of my 14 days) I went in and told them I had paid 350, but I had since heard that Best Buy was price matching the phone for 250 to Amazon. She checked it really quick looked at my order and have me 107 back from the cash register.

Furthermore if you want to save a little extra, you can complain to Sprint about the price and they'll give you a 30 dollar credit. You might be able to try and get them to waive the activation fee too, I've not tried this though.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] KennyG123:

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordDeath:
Hello,

I have the problem that my device lags for several seconds after installing, updating or uninstalling an app. I made a little test with installing Google Play movies and this little 2.65 MB app is also causing a high I/O of 20-30 MB/s after installing and uninstalling it.

Here is what happens during the uninstallation:

http://www.evernote.com/shard/s47/s...7dac6c831d6e/91d43baabab19995f83a765565b9d197

As you can see there is a lot reading happening and I can't explain why. The device is running CM 10.2 and neither Android 4.3's built-in trim command or apps like lagfix can solve this issue. Switching from the default kernel to a 3rd-party kernel did also not help.

Additionally I see a similar I/O activity after rotating the device but I don't know if this is related.

What is causing this? Initially the device got slow because of the missing trim command in CM 10.1 but now that should be solved. AndroBench is also telling me that the flash storage is healthy again:

SEQ RD: 21.62 MB/s

SEQ WR: 11.57 MB/s

RND RD: 1693.96 IOPS (4K)

RND WR: 140.37 IOPS (4K)

PS: Formating /cache and deleting the dalvik-cache have also no effect regarding this issue.

edit: I should mention that I have a 32 GB device and still have over 17 GB free.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Atinebo:
I accidentally bricked my Galaxy s3 and went to several forums to find a solution. On every solution, my Odin always failed at "Getting PIT for Mapping" then "Complete (Write) Operation Failed" or something. I don't know the problem, but my computer says "This device can perform faster." My USB and Samsung drivers are up to date, but does anyone know a solution? It is my device or my computer?

EDIT: I can still go on CWM recovery and download mode. Is there a way to unbrick by using CWM to install a firmware or something? Sorry I'm totally new to this. Shouldn't have ventured into unknown territory. :/

Adb shell whilst in recovery and restore the offending file.

Eg. Adb pull system/build.prop - then edit - then adb push editedbuild.prop system/
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
Trying this, but when I do "./adb pull system/build.prop" it comes back with a closed error. I tried restarting the computer and device, consistent results. it's pulling up as sideload on phone and comp... trying to play with it more, but I went out and bought a gophone for right now so I don't lose contact with the world.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] philicibine:
Did u mount /system in recovery??

Or.. u could pull a build.prop from any rom and try to adb push that. (Need to mount system as rw first)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
I've tried everything i can think of off the top of my head to mount, it's still stubborn...
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] philicibine:
Ive not seen that sideload mode before. Not sure now.

Maybe a rom flash would help. Start fresh
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] shingers5:
was just gonna say that LOL

stop messing about and end up causing more damage just flash stock rom with odin and when reboot it should update. that will keep your current apps and amend dpi.........only a data factory reset from stock recovery will wipe completely

- in future try changing dpi from build.prop in /system/ folder using root explorer as it creates a backup of the old build.prop which you can use to restore in case of errors
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
I wouldn't learn how to adb and play around for no reason, the 527 does not have odin flashable yet.

Stinks for those of us who play, but this is the price we all gamble with. I'm using a knock around phone right now until I fix it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] shingers5:
Yea just realised you don't have an Odin file to flash. As long as you have root the instructions given previously should work. I have never had to do that so can't comment on success rate
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] philicibine:
Surely there is a rom.zip u can flash???
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
Not yet. I'm going to go pick up my new knock around phone today and send my Mega off to Samsung to be fixed I guess. I think mines is so screwed up that they won't be able to tell it's even been rooted lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
If you don't mind something much lower end than the mega, go grab a nokia 520 gophone and throw your sim in. Total out the door was $100 plus tax. No contract, no activation, and you can throw it on CL or the bay when you're done with it.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
Found a cheapy sidekick for 50 bucks. Dropped my Mega off at the UPS store just now. Fingers crossed that it's so screwed up that they can't even tell it's been rooted lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] clodfan101:
they can tell

they will be able to tell.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] shingers5:
i'd say you be fine as they will have to reflash it to get it working..............should wipe out any trace of root if they choose repartition as that wipes all. you may just sneak one past them

fingers crossed
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
Thanks my man. Hell even if they reflash it and see it's rooted it's still a win for me. I just need it to be able to boot up. I really really really hope like hell I can sneak this one through. I can't use this little sidekick for too long lol. It's so damn small.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
I don't trust those sunsabitches. I'll keep mine in my possession until there is an odin flashable file, no reason for them to get my device and sit on it for a while before they determine they won't fix it. I might set up a bet with myself. $40 a day, and as soon as I cross $700, I buy a Sony Z Ultra to replace the mega. Gives me 18 days to get it done. By that time, I will be good and ready to be out of this stupid Windows phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Christogq:
Hell if they don't fix it then i'll be in the same boat. I'm gonna buy me another Mega though if anything. I messed mine up listening to some other people instead of doing what I normally do. On saturday I had it perfect for what I wanted. Then Sunday I started tinkering listening to others lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
Look at that ultra. Slightly waterproof, slightly bigger, and only slightly more money. After this debacle, I almost wish I had waited and listened to my brain instead of buying with my heart. I love me my samsung phones, but sometimes you simply cannot ignore the greener grass.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] shingers5:
i had a z ultra and the grass is defo not greener mate.............the sony software cant handle the power of the snapdragon pro 800 so i suffered frequent triple taps when typing and hangs because chip is doing things way faster that software can handle. the screen is dull for 1080p and that screen protector thing cant be removed as it voids your warranty

definitely not greener grass :)

this is cheaper and quite more refined package
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
I tried the zip posted here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=46648512&postcount=16

It fails verification, is there a way to spoof or override the verification? Could be the answer to getting it back running.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] cbass:
I'd deal with the tap issues fine, i'm using a effing nokia 520 until i fix the mega or break down and buy something else. So not stoked about the temporary situation. The phone is ruddy awesome for a $100, no contract, get me through a couple days without something good device... but I am really starting to miss the mega in a big way.
