So I am taking it, that no one is supporting the d2vzw variant? If so, why and where can I learn to port? I am not familiar with porting or making custom roms...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobAbooE:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
If you're not familiar with how to make roms at all, then you should probably start reading: XDA University. Lot of good information there just from reading thread titles and skimming through.
[General Questions and Answers] wizardofroz:
I posted this in another thread but want to get as immediate of a response as possible so i am posting it here...

I recently bought droid x2 from my friend to replace my previous phone which i dropped, the screen broke so its busted.

It wasn't until I went to the verizon store, and activated my phone that I was told that it was rooted. It is fully functional (it is active, receives texts, calls, has wifi, apps, everything works) but I cannot update the software OTA and do not have access to my data network. So the only time I can really access the internet or do anything productive is if I have a wifi connection. And overall, the phone just functions pretty slow. I have had a blinking grey triangle in the top right corner of the screen, which I assume means that my data is roaming and thus have no access to it.

So basically I tried taking it to a repair store and they suggested that instead of paying 150+ dollars to have my old phone's screen repaired, that I post on here for help to see if I can restore this phone to its original software. I have tried doing the factory reset and in the store, they went through the restore process but it didn't change anything with my lack of access to data. I want to know if there is anything I can do to fix this issue (preferably on a macbook) or if I should just pay the money to have my old phone's screen fixed.

So does anyone know how to fix this? I want to unroot the phone or restore it so the software is the orginal as verizon provided it... if you need more information about my problem let me know and I can try to give more details

Hi there,

Has someone find out how to make the vpn client work ?

I have a Mac Mini with OS X server running with a VPN server set on LT2P. With my GN3 when I try to connect, I cannot connect to the VPN server at all.

When using an iphone 5 with the same settings, it connects.

I have tested several times and for me it seems that the VPN client is faulty. The problem is that I cannot have any details/errors when I am trying to connect with my GN3.

Do you have the same issue ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ROY10:
My N9005 has same problem
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Nx-:
Do you know any VPN client that supports LT2P ? Cannot find decent one on Google Play.

I hope that Samsung will fix this VPN client. Maybe I will switch to OpenVPN if the issue is still there.

Cisco VPN Disconnected

Not sure if we're having the same issues but I'm having problems getting a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 - Verizon on the corporate VPN at my workplace. We have Cisco Ipsec Xauth w PSK. I brought the issue up with the carrier but they hadn't heard of anything. I took my phone into the store and verified with the demo unit in the store that it wouldn't connect. We verified that a demo Samsung Galaxy S4 connected no problem on the same Verizon wifi hotspot. As soon as you hit connect, the Galaxy Note 3 flashes connecting for like 1-2 secs then says disconnected. This is with the built in VPN app. I tried with vpncilla from the Google Playstore. It shows a false "connected", it doesn't reach anything on the corporate network. Checked the VPN logs never see it connect, but you do see when the user disconnects the false VPN "connection". If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] timg11:
I have read (<here> and <here>)

about new firmware versions that will not allow resetting the counter (warranty flag) to initial conditions when restoring to stock after after unlocking or rooting.

If the phone developed a hardware problem, warranty repair could be denied.

The firmware version "MGG" and beyond are reported to have this problem.

Questions:

Does this also apply to the m919 T-Mobile version?

Has anybody seen it on an m919?

Is it going out with an OTA update?

Or is MGG specific to the i9505?

I am shopping for a GS4 m919, and I want confirm that it has the "pre-MGG" firmware version before purchase.

Questions:

Is the ID contained in the "Baseband" ID string in the phone information?

Are there different identifier strings used on the M919?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Exel:
The T-Mobile S4 has not received the KNOX Bootloader, it will most likely come with the 4.3 update. If anyone is on stock, I would recommend you guys disable OTA updates as you may get automatically updated to 4.3 with the KNOX bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] mgbotoe:
for once...im dreading an update from tmobile
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] DigitalHeretic:
If I've already rooted and installed a custom recovery (Clockwork Mod), and nothing else, does anyone know if the 4.3 update with KNOX will still be usuable? In other words, will the phone still get an automatic OTA update and will that update install correctly?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] pyro43284:
It wont let you get the update it will pop a box up saying unable to uodate your device has been modified. . Try to check for an uodate youll see what im talking about... I went back to stock just to see if there was anything for updates which there wasnt andbwent to reroot and installed su abd it didn't flash correctly thru odin said to heck with it till the am checked for an update for giggles in the am and wouldn't even check
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] HKSpeed:
i'm glad I read this thread. i was going to wait until i tried the stock 4.3 update before deciding to root and install custom ROMs. With KNOX coming, I'm just going to root ASAP. I like PA on my Nexus4, so I'll probably go with that for my S4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] futty:
So you guys are saying the new update with "knox" won't allow you to reset the counter and only that or will it stop you from completely rooting and installing custom roms?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Exel:
Let me clarify some things. The KNOX processes and functions are already on the stock ROM, most devs remove them, though. So many of you with custom ROMs haven't seen anything related to KNOX.

What the new T-Mobile update (when it gets pushed out) is most likely to come with is a "KNOX Bootloader" which will introduce a thing called "KNOX Flag" which is similar to the old counter we're all used to. This is the counter that [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] was successful in resetting with his app, Triangle Away.

Unfortunately, [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] or anyone else for that matter, has not been able to reset the KNOX flag.

The KNOX flags is this:

0x0 = You have not tripped the KNOX flag.

0x1 = You have tripped the KNOX flag.

Again, once you trip that flag, rooting, flashing a custom recovery, etc.. there is NO way to reset it as of now. And any KNOX functionality on your phone will not work. But the worst part is Samsung will refuse warranty on your device if they see a 0x1 in your bootloader.

Another thing.. on the new bootloader, if you try to downgrade, even with an official Samsung firmware, it will fail and you will trip the KNOX flag.

So once you're on the new bootloader, there's no going back.

There's been speculation that there's an eFuse at play here.

Anyway, this is the reason why I am suggesting you all disable OTA updates and wait until a ROM is built without the new bootloader and all the functions (Wifi, MMS, etc.) are working.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Hey, its sammy we have to blame for this one :/ Not T-Mobile lol.

PSSSST! Don't let them know you are dreading it, or they might put it off longer xD

As to the OP.

The KNOX Warranty counter is rumored to be what is called an eFUSE. If this is true, then resetting the KNOX warranty counter will be impossible without taking apart your phone and replacing that specific eFUSE.

However, there are rumors that some root methods DO NOT trip this new counter. Is that good? Yes, is that bad? Yes. For those users who like stock kernels and just wanna root, this is okay for them. But for 99.999999 percent of us who love to flash new kernels and get more from our devices, then it trips the counter.

I personally congratulate Samsung as well as hate them at the same time for this. I congratulate them because what seems to be happening a lot is users flash a million and 2 things to their device having not one single clue what they are doing, thus bricking their 500+ dollar smartphone then claiming it as a warranty claim and getting another one. I also feel they are trying to flex their ego muscles too -.-

I also believe that if you have insurance, this does not apply. It is only for warranty claims. Which like you stated OP, it only means Samsung can choose to deny to repair or replace it. I have read a lot of thread before where users tripped the older binary flash counter, and still were given a new device. I honestly don't know how this is going to play out for the lot of us. For me, my warranty is over in a few months anyhow so i don't really care. But its still kind of a dickish thing Samsung is doing.

I am also hoping that we can extract the contents of the new update and keep our older bootloaders and create a flashable zip with the new update stuff and have it still work. I know there were some issues with the international S4 4.3 update but im not sure if it was entirely caused by the bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Reignogleph MMXI:
Where do you disable OTA updates on a stock S4?

Hitting "Software Update" takes me to a Boolean"Update Now" popup with no other option than choosing Yes, No or Wifi. No option to defeat future updates is offered.

Going into developer mode doesn't seem to add any pertinent options either (correct me if I'm wrong).

Clearly, Samsung doesn't want us to be able to disable updates unless or until we root, which I'm doing this weekend on the basis of this thread.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Exel:
You indeed have to root to disable OTA updates.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
Once the update hits im going to extract the system.img to get all the files.

Then explore where all of the Knox crap is and get rid of it.

I know I want be alone in doing this...all who develop for the S4 will be on top of it.

Someone will figure out a way to get around this Knox BS...:o

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lgkahn:
thats fine and dandy for us with existing phones.. I already removed all the knox crap from my phone, and will update but not kernel and do the same..

But what about all future phones.. If indeed the kernel is locked with knox and there is no way to remove it we are screwed for new phones coming out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] The Sickness:
I agree. If thats the case....then alot of people will ditch Samsung.

But I have a feeling we will figure out Knox. Its man made so it can be hacked. Who when and how is the question. :cool:

just want to know if there is a way to access the internet via BT connection to the pc ?

thanks all

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] clearwave1:
how to access the internet via bluetooth connection

This can be done by connecting to the PC using ActiveSync over your Bluetooth connection.

You can easily add this in the Bluetooth manager if you do not already have one.

As long as ActiveSync has the passthrough connection enabled (see Options -> Rules in ActiveSync) you will now be able to connect to the internet on your BA.

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] champ784:
So I'm sure a lot of you know that the final build of Ubuntu 13.10 released today! I know not too many developers are interested in it, and CM 10.1 is still being worked on. But I was wondering if there was anyone interested in this? I know it is still very early in development, and we still have yet to see a lot of things to come Canonical for Ubuntu touch. I'm just curious to see if it would be a realistic operating system to install on the blaze. I understand, according to the website, that you would only be able to use Ubuntu on the phone and not with a desktop, mouse and keyboard. I am unsure of the dual boot option. Would anyone know what the options would be with the Galaxy S Blaze with Ubuntu Touch?

Thought i'd post this useful hidden feature to test/check your digitizer/s-pen as well as pressure on Note 8 (should likely work for mouse too)

It can be enabled/toggled under Settings > Developer options > Input > Show Pointer location

It will draw cross hairs at your touch location as well as give you some data points.

such as described below

P =1 when touched; Otherwise P=0

dx/dy (delta x, delta y) (offset between location touched and location released, basically drag/stroke offset)

X,Y Screen Co-Ordinates of your touch location (when touched).

Xv/Yv (velocity tracker values for Hori/ Vert resp)

Prs: Pressure Level (0>P<=1 for s-pen, P=1 for finger ) (max pressure i have been able to achieve is around 0.88 that too by adjusting the internal controller inside the s-pen.)

Size: size of your touch region co-ordinate (with finger) value is Zero when using s-pen.

Hope it helps the curious!

It sounds like you're getting a conflict with another launcher. It seems like a different launcher is trying to work when you press the home button.
