You may have to keep it 40 days past when you buy it to get it unlocked through them. I'm not 100% sure. If you're gonna drop the cash on the Note 3 outright, you could also use a paid unlock for about $30, which is a drop in the bucket in terms of total cost.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] @rbiter:
Lookup chainfire's regional lock app. Less than 3 bucks and your phone is unlocked. Thanks chainfire.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toyanucci:
Thanks for the replies, but my issue isn't even the unlocking per say, I'm just wondering if they will sell it to me at full price. They list the price on their site but the option to purchase at the full price just isn't selectable.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] @rbiter:
Yes. You should be able to purchase it in store. Some stores may try to charge ~$740, which is supposedly the pre paid customers price. I did not run into this when I bought mine but if you do, insist on the $704 price. Could just be some greedy sales people out there trying to make an extra buck. Try to go to a corporate store. Should receive better corporate customer service there. A 3rd party reseller may be more knowledgeable but may try and twist your arm some.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Jfree3000:
You can buy it full price in the store, they wont do the transaction over the phone for some reason. And once you buy it outright you can have it unlocked by calling T-Mobile without waiting (what I have been told).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] koolbeanz426:
Just chiming in on your issue. My last 3 phones (HTC One, LG G2, and Note 3) have been purchased outright. As far as getting it unlocked for when you go back home, is easier if you go thru a 3rd party and do it for $20-$30. Oh, and the reason they'll sell it to you is because they make commission on the purchase, so be ready for them to try and sell you on some $25 screen protectors.

Hi everyone is it possible to play games straight from Pendrive without install `em on SD card. If so could someone please explain to me that because I can't get it to work. Thanx in advance
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] LSWaard:
This won't be easy and will certainly not work out of the box.

In the standard case the .apk file needs to be installed on the system itself.

But: there is an app to use a secondary partition which is called Link2SD, you need to have a rooted device though.

I found a guide for the process on the Ouya Android-device, which might point you into the right direction: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2345680

Good luck and please keep us updated with your progress on the matter :)

Was just starting my search for screen protectors, and this was great. Thanks for the review! How was the screen clarity between the dry Zagg and the Glas T? I've noticed with previous Zagg wet applications a severe degradation in clarity with the screen protector on.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] jus71n:
I had the spigen Glas.T nano installed, real glass @ 0.15mm, fantastic product but for me it proved to be a little fragile, in my pocket something caused the edge to "chip" then it just spread accross the screen. I'm now using spigen Glas.TR which is a little thicker @ 0.4mm but has the rounded edges for better "chip" protection.

I see that for iPhone 5 they've fetched out a Glas.TR nano @ 0.23mm thickness & rounded edges, If they fetch these out for S4 I'll be buying one.
[Nexus 4 General] luiseteyo:
INTRODUCTION

Hi everybody! Some time ago I searched a lot in the forum and I didn't find any good enough fisheye camera app. I love fisheye pictures (are those where the picture makes a wider capure in the same space of a normal picture. This way the picture seems to be curved, the farer objets seem to be ever farer and the objets which are close to the lens seem to be nearer).

This is an example:

​

Now that we all know what we are talking about let's stay on topic. It is obvious that this is impossible without a special lens. The software made for emulating this effect is crappy, (believe me, I tested them all... ;)) and taking this kind of pictures is impossible with our current camera.​

THE SOLUTION

You have only two solutions:

- To buy a good wide-lens

- To get conformed with this new way of taking pics.

I am almost sure of that u know this method, but I share it anyway so if somebody don't know it can do it. Special thanks to the people in the thread "Post pictures taken from your Nexus 4!", who discover and share new things everyday!​

WHAT YOU NEED

- Stock camera app with photosphere

- It works in every device with photosphere support.​

HOW-TO

The method consists in taking at least nine pictures with photosphere. First of all you will decide where you want to have the center of the picture, you shot, then the side pics, then the pics that should go up and then the last line of shots, now you will understand.

Some suggestions:

- Sometimes, if you shot below the horizon line, objects can be deformed.

- If you shot more than 3-4 pics horizontally, the picture doesn't have a fisheye aspect but a normal panorama one, like in this pic (the pic is awesome but not a fisheye pic). The same user (BoneXDA, thanks) did a better example of a fisheye pic here.

- It doesn't matter if the object you are making the pic is higher or shorter than you, for example, a building, the closer you are to the horizon line (ground) the better effect you will get. Other example: the picture from the top of a building.​

EXAMPLE TO UNDERSTAND

​

ANOTHER FINAL EXAMPLE

​

Quick video review on Youtube​

I don't know if I explained it properly, or if you knew it but it consists in taking at least nine pics. Obviously if you are for example in the top of a building and want to make a pic of the street the proceedure will be done taking pics to the bottom, and not to the top, as I did in the example.​

If you have any doubts I can manage to make a video tutorial. Hope this is helpful!! Thanks!!!

Already a panorama not.
[Nexus 4 General] luiseteyo:
Amazing pic!

Well, I dont really think it is so hard, but I will make a video for a better understanding

Yes! Make a google search of "fisheye" and you will see :) Will fishes see like that?

To make good spheres it is very important to:

- Have a good ilumination

- Some distance to things

My advice is to get into the "post pictures taken from your nexus 4" and search photosphere posts. You can learn a lot in that thread from very good nexus 4 photographers!! :)

Try again but not in your bedroom. Give us a pic from your window in mid-day light

[MOD][10/22/13] - AT&T Tether hack - D80010d Base - No SQL stuff, just flash and go!

I hacked the AT&T Tether. Its now free on stock ROM and on custom ROMS build on the AT&T D80010d Base.

Instead of authenticating to the AT&T Entitlement server it authenticates to... wait for it... www.scottsroms.com and of course my server always gives the ok :good:

Make a Nandroid before flashing!

[AT&T LG G2] Scott:
Any Dev (or aspiring Dev) may use this mod for any rom you make on the D80010d base. I just ask that you please give credits. Its hitting a server that I have to pay money for so thats not asking a whole lot.
[AT&T LG G2] Scott:
How I did this...

Oddly enough this is the strangest working hack I did. I did this back on the AT&T GS4 when I couldnt get the framework-res to re-compile. Anyways, some background, when the hot spot / tether app checks with AT&T to see if you have tether it does it in such a simplistic way, it simply pings a server and looks for a "Yes" reply! Litterally, thats what it does.

I set up a simple html file on server here: http://scottsroms.com/tether that returns the word "Yes" and then the tether app turns on. Its really weird they did not have any encryption of any sort of obfuscation and its plain text English, but whatever, made it easy to hack.

So for the file on my server to be any use we have to re-direct the Entitlement check to that location instead of AT&T's server located at "entitlement.mobile.att.net"

So what I did was de-compile LGSettings.apk and edited the following lines...

File: com/android/settings/EntitlementCheckService.smali

Changes:

Line 217
const-string v4, "entitlement.mobile.att.net"
to
const-string v4, "scottsroms.com/tether"

Line 753:
const-string v9, "http://entitlement.mobile.att.net/teth"
to
const-string v9, "http://scottsroms.com/tether"

Line 846:
const-string v9, "http://entitlement.mobile.att.net/teth"
to
const-string v9, "http://scottsroms.com/tether"

Line 858:
const-string v9, "http://entitlement.mobile.att.net/mhs1"
to
const-string v9, "http://scottsroms.com/tether"

So as you can see it goes to my webserver and returns "yes" and tether works ;c)

http://scottsroms.com/tether
[AT&T LG G2] holeshot77:
Is this already in your clean xe 1.1 rom?
[AT&T LG G2] EniGmA1987:
Would it be possible to have this flashable zip simply install that same html file for the "yes" reply to a directory called "tether" on the root of the internal storage, and then the LGSettings.apk is edited to look at 127.0.0.1/tether? That way it would be faster since it doesnt send data over the internet to check and it wont have a server cost that someone has to be hosting.
[AT&T LG G2] Scott:
As long as you have an HTML server on your phone yes, that would work just fine.

But you need to set up a web server on your phone to get the appropriate response.
[AT&T LG G2] Scott:
And thats only a guess. I am not an expert on web technology....

Another thing I was thinking too, you could also use the host file to redirect! You could try that if you understand how to edit the host file.
[AT&T LG G2] Scott:

I decompiled the lgsettings.apk and got all the files, but cannot find the line you mention that needs to be modified...

Could you please clarify where this is exactly?

Thank you.
[AT&T LG G2] Scott:
Please see post #2 and see the bold text for name of the file.

Then in the code box it lists the exact line #'s.

Its excruciatingly specific.
[AT&T LG G2] CTF:
Well, I guess that shows that I should probably not even try...

However, I do not have such file after decompiling lgsettings.apk.

I get a file called AndroidManifest, and a bunch of folders...

Anim/Color/drawable...

Nowhere can I find the file com/android/settings/EntitlementCheckService.smali

I am assuming that I am not doing something right, no worries, this thread is not for this, and I thought it would be more straightforward.

Thanks for the help.
[AT&T LG G2] Scott:
No thats fine.. How did you decompile?

So you have a folder called "smali" or "out"

Depending on the specific ways you decompiled may change the name of that.

I wrote a very simple batch scrip on my website to decompile the classes.dex. You may want to look at that as it will be more straightforward for this simple edit.

Look here: http://www.scottsroms.com/showthread.php?404-TOOL-10-5-SmaliTOOL-1-2

Just grab the classes.dex from the apk, run my decompile tool, make changes per your needs, recompile with batch file, then inseret back into apk with file named as classes.dex.
[AT&T LG G2] Scott:
All of this asumes you have Java installed and functioning.
[AT&T LG G2] CTF:
I used a tool found on XDA called AndroidMultitool.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2326604&highlight=password

It does not give me an OUT or SIMU folder, but I will try your method this weekend and see how this works out. :D

This decompiler gives a file called AndroidManifest, and a RES folder.

That RES folder has a bunch of subfolders, but not the ones you indicated.

I do have Java SE installed and working properly.

Thanks!

---------- Post added at 04:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:37 PM ----------

On a whim, I just unzipped the apk using a standard unzipper (The unarchiver on OSX) and saw the assets folder, classes.dex and com folder.

:)

More than the previous tool gave me.
[AT&T LG G2] Scott:
All of these fancy tools, lol.

This was the link I was hoping you would find when you first PM'ed me: http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/

Its the core files that all the GUI tools are made from.

But in reality, you really only need to edit the smali code for this and not the entire APK. So you could use this: http://code.google.com/p/smali/. The tool, I built, linked to uses this as well.

I also forgot to note the file needs to be de-odex for this to work. So if you are using my file posted in OP you are good. If you are doing it from stock then you need to de-odex the file first.

For a first time mod, I recomend using the de-odex file I posted.

This is working fine when I am on the AT&T network in the US.

While on a trip to Asia, I tried to enable Tether, but it would not work. (I do have an AT&T international data roaming package)

As soon as I would try to enable the hotspot feature, a message would come up telling me that there was a temporary network failure and to try again later.

I checked from the phone and was able to get the yes page from Scott, so that was not that...

As soon as I came back on the AT&T network in the US, it was fine again.

I thought I would mention that.
[AT&T LG G2] bimmerd00d:
This sounds like it's checking using an outbound proxy server that has to be on att network in order to verify. Sounds like they do this to avoid huge data charges while you're roaming on another carrier
