[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] rwright64:
Maybe a bad download? A couple of those one click files have been wanky for me in the past. Which one did you use?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] STIDRIVER:
Having the same issue here. Good to know its not me. Recently went back to stock/unrooted after having issues with PATB's latest release. Noticed when I got back to stock, I had no 4G. So, I've since rooted and loaded Synergy's latest build. ROM is great, but still no 4G. I've tried updating PRL, FIRMWARE and making sure I'm on CDMA/LTE. I wouldn't think its a bad DL since its 3 different ROMS doing the same thing... Looking for help too :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tripartist1:
Are the links not clickable? The link for both files should be in my first post. As far as a bad DL, it passed the md5, so im not sure why it failed... does anyone have a working tar of the LJC stock? This isnt even my phone, my friend needs it back before work tomorrow. Thats what happens when you get cocky. You think youve got things down pat then things end up broken :/ just shows how careful you need to be i guess...

EDIT!!

got it back working! turns out the bootloader wont write if your on the updated stock rom, so i used one that doesnt need to write the BL. also, this tar.md5 completely restored functionality, including 4g! so if your having issues, use the tar.md5 from here . its an older version of stock, but it works!

there is also a one click file, but i cannot verify if it works or not.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] garwynn:
I won't recommend this one as it was a build based on an update zip. Please use MC2 instead or Billard412's Back to LJC stock zip if needed.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpride84:
I'm stuck with an LG Optimus G Pro and I'm starting to notice that they aren't that great with upgrading software. I want to get the Galaxy Note 3... like really badly. My normal upgrade is 5 months away. So I have two or three options. Which would you choose if you were in my shoes, and why?

Option A: Sell LG Optimus G Pro for a few hundred, go onto AT&T Next Plan for 20 months and then use phone w/o contract. Use money from LG Pro to make most of the monthly payments.

Option B: Sell LG Optimus G Pro and Tablet, and buy the Galaxy Note 3 flat out w/o using AT&T next.

Option C: Wait 5 long months, while the worth of the Optimus G Pro and Tablet go down.

Option D: (Your plan if you have a better one.)

I'm really stuck in the mud with this one. What would you do and why? Thanks in advance!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidguru:
A: I see no real benefit of the Next plan unless you want to swap phones every year. You pay tax on the full price, then monthly payments. Sure, there's no contract, but more than likely the remainder of the device's purchase price would be more than an ETF if you canceled the Next plan.

B: If you don't want to be under a contract, then this would be your best bet. Also, you would have a lot more pull with getting a reduction in your bill since you don't have a contract and retentions will do their best to keep you. I.E. the Mobile to Any Mobile w/ Unlimited Messaging on a family plan is available for $20/month through rentions.

C: Nah bro, just nah xD

D: Give retentions a call (611, option 4, option 5 IIRC) and tell them that you are thinking about going to XX carrier to get the Note 3 and just buy out of your current contract. Given that you are 5 months away, they definitely should be willing to work with you. I was offered the $299.99 price on a line that wasn't due for an upgrade until July 2014, so it's definitely possible. Then, you could sell the LG phone and/or the tablet to reduce the cost of the Note 3.

I would try D first and see where that gets you. If the first rep isn't willing to help, then call back and try again, although I've never had to call for back for a second rep. If all of that fails, then I would sell the phone and tablet and have a net out-of-pocket cost of next to nothing for the Note 3. Hope this helps.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nimixes:
Suggestion:

Sell what you got and buy it with a 2 year contract this phone is bad a F will be powerful for a while IMO

I would call At&T and tell them you been a customer for this long and basicly kiss some ass this has worked in the past where they will let you get the discounted 2 year price early if you play your cards right ;)

P.s. if you are into ROMs and all that I would hold tight on that stuff until the boot loader is unlocked you can read up about that on the forums.

Good luck
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] americasteam:
Would definitely call customer service. I wasn't due for an upgrade until May 2014. They went ahead and approved the exception upgrade and even mistakenly misquoted me a price of $199. Good luck.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] putsometrebleinit:
First off, the Next plan is a ripoff, you're essentially paying full retail for a phone that isn't yours when the year is up. The payments are just spread out, and you're always under AT&T 's thumb. I am a firm believer in never getting tied into contracts, especially with phone companies. If you are out from under your AT&T contract I would seriously take a look at some of the mvnos out there. Compared with AT&T prices for comparable plans you can save anywhere from $45-$75 a month. Yes you have to pay retail for a phone, but it's yours to do with as you wish, and you're saving $540-$900 a year by going with one of those guys. And if you decide to sell your phone when the next version comes out, you will get a good return. That is my option D. I left AT&T two years ago and haven't looked back.

Only the second part is true. You can get the Google play store apk on any device, regardless of root or not.

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] r3pwn:
Try this link.

Although it says Kindle Fire HD, ignore that. Ignore step 3. Also ignore anything that says about copying to /system/app.

Just install the apps in the order he has listed then install the "Vending.apk" (That is the Google Play Store). Please also note that you will most likely not be able to install apps from it. :/

Better results

You'll get better results in the interim from installing:

a) 1MobileMarket

or

b) Aptoide

or

c) BlackMart Alpha (shh..)

Tinkering with Google Play Store components before we have root may be an exercise in futility.

Anyone tried SNAPPEA TO passthru GooglePlay?

I saw a utility SnapPea that seems to allow a pass thru from a PC to Kindle Fire HDX for accessing GooglePlay. As I still have not ordered my HDX I was wondering if anyone has tried this.

Thanks in advance;
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Newcron:
The SnapPea app that I just tested is a way to control your android device from a browser on your computer, similar to AirDroid. It does not allow access to Google Play for the Kindle. What it does do is help you to install an .apk file through the browser, but then we can do that already by allowing sideload anyway. So maybe you were thinking about something else?

Kindle Fire HD 2013

Same here.. Just bought a Kindle Fire HD 2013 and tried every possible attempt described on many how-to to get it rooted for Google Play. Nothing worked. Device current version is 11.3.0.5.

Tried the side load as well described for HDX. Gmail app works but that's about it.

Anyone succeeded on this version?

Thanks
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] oblomov:
I basically got pretty much every app to work except for Hangouts and Play Store. This includes everything from Voice to Gmail to Map to Google Earth to Google Plus to whatever. The key for me was to start with base configs that Android Cowboy posted, but then add bunch of dependencies from android 4.2.2 and update with latest version of backed up apps. For example, I have had to install Google Play Services 3.2.66 first and then was able to update to 4.0.31 after reboot. That version was required for Youtube to work properly (i.e. allow account sign-in). Things still crash sometimes, but it's not a huge deal.

Main thing is Youtube, Music, Gmail and Calendar are all working more or less ok. Chrome signed into my google account, but its not pulling down settings (bookmarks, open tabs from other computers, etc...). Google Plus crashes sometimes but works. Hangouts is clearly missing a dependency of some sort. I installed most things I could thing of from default Android 4.2.2 CM10.1 apps package and from backing up my phone (galaxy s4), but it's still no go. It would be nice to get that going as well. Oh well, Skype can cover most things there.

Google Voice Convifirmed

Wanted to confirm that I also have Google Voice working on the HDX 7 (since I rarely see people mentioning it as a Google App). Interestingly, I also got Talkatone working on the HDX with my Google Voice number, even though the app's FAQ plainly says that Google Voice will NOT work with it. As a result, as long as I have wifi, I can now easily use my Google Voice number to make and receive calls.

When I download apps from other sources (1mobile) they don't show up in the multi tasking bar. Anyone know of a multitasking app to fix this?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] megathormic:
I'm using the paid version of floating toucher to access recent apps.

To get apps to show up on the stock multi tasking bar you have to open them from the stock home launcher.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] richbrown68:
56634248

Correct. The multitasking feature on the HDX is basically just the Carousel, with exactly the same shortcuts in exactly the same order. The only difference is it's hidden on the edge of the screen until you pull it up. So, just as apps launched from alternative launchers won't show up on the Carousel, they also won't show up on the HDX multitasking bar.

First, PC odin couldn't flash the device with this recovery (Odin 3.7, PC Win 8.1 x64, Odin works fine with it, checked many times).

After flashing this recovery from terminal it cannot boot by some reasons, and i'm rebooted the device with terminal command "reboot recovery", and i get the bootloop with the orange styled frame of "CWM-based recovery 6.0.4.4", then i reflashed the old version with odin.

P.S. My ROM is ARHD. Device: N8000.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Original Development] Samer Diab:
Well thats odd :/ are you sure you have n8000 build not n8013 as i am recovery fine
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Original Development] Shmong:
Yes, i'm pretty sure. I've tried to do this few times via both terminal and odin. Now will try one more time...

UPD: I've repacked the img file with the tar archiver+ put md5 checksum (tar.md5) and flashed it with odin successfully.

And like iRoNX said it can't mount extSD: "error mounting /storage/sdcard1"

UPD2: The recovery from similar thread have another issue: cannot format "/data" and cannot explore internal flash )))
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Original Development] chappatti:
+1.

The Odin tar file is not OK. Although I did not get a bootloop, the indicator on phone in download mode goes to the end and then stays there at "NAND write". I has to disconnect the phone and reboot manually, and my old version of CWM was still there (phew!). The .img files and dd worked fine.

Thanks anyways for this update !!!! It worked to get me on JB 4.4 !

Update: When phone is powered off and charger connected, upon starting there is a garbled green image that comes on for several seconds - most likely the battery charging icon - and then the phone will start up. It was not there before flashing 6.0.4.4. Anyways my phone does start up........ :-p

SD cards problem

Hello again,

Within this version of CWM, the SD card problem seems to be only for the 64g cards as tested on my N8013. However, after you flash the Rom you'll using, there is no problem with 64g cards outside of CWM recovery mode.

Smaller sized cards 32g and less will mount fine while you are in CWM recovery mode.

missing file

I seem to have lost my \efs folder, and in searching for a solution one of the steps I'm told to take is to flash "N8000-CWM-6.0.4.4.tar". However, it doesn't seem to exist anywhere (now that goo is gone), other than in this thread and the version here seems to be broken. Does anyone have the N8000 version of the .tar file?

Boot-loop, can't wipe device.

Hey everyone. I'm not exactly sure what happened, but it seems that my GT-N8000 is on the fritz again. The device was screen-off this morning (I left home) and when I came home it was in a reboot loop.

I jumped into recovery (CWM v6.0.4.4) to try to wipe both cache and dalvik (both successful) and rebooted. Same bootloop.

So then I decided to wipe the storage and reinstall the ROM (Gnabo v8 is what I had been running). When I attempt to "wipe data/factory reset", it says "formatting data . . ." and then reboots into the bootloop again.

Then I thought that maybe it was wiped, so I attempted to flash Gnabo. It installs successfully (Installing update, blue bar goes across, "Enjoy!" and "Install from sdcard complete."), however, when the installation starts, I get the first box and then it sits for almost 2 minutes before the blue bar appears, fills in just a few quick seconds, and then displays the completed message. It seems to me that the installation and the blue bar should be taking longer, but what do I know. Anyway, I rebooted (No, don't fix ROM flasing stock recovery on reboot), then back into the bootloop. So I'm still losing.

I don't know if it's related, but some months ago I had something similar happen in that the device was in a bootloop and it turned out that it had somehow lost the /efs folder. I had restored that (thanks XDA forums!) and it had been working fine since about June 2015.

I'm starting to think that my memory has gone bad, and that I basically have a 10.1 inch paperweight. Suggestions? Thanks for any help you can provide.
