Tell me about it, all I want is a god damn pit file so I can make sure the offsets starts and ends for the partitions are the same, yeah I get linux isnt the easiest thing to use, but literally I could not have made it easier for someone on 4.3 to get me a pit file if I tried, see below. I wrote a shell script that basically downloads all the prereq's, and packages, then clones, the repo, makes the config, and installs heimdall from source for you, it even automatically opens heimdall at the end! So in this time that I've been waiting, I finished the base stock root deodex rom of VRUEMJ7 that im uploading for dev's to use, and compiled more of the firmware for MJ7. Ive noticed invisiblek has been doing the same thing, so far we both have made the same edits independently so I think were making progress atleast heres what I have so far
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joderme:
I've got a sneaking suspicion that it won't be released for a while... If I knew of a way to monitor what commands KIES is sending out to fetch the files it would be wonderful as you might be able to get it that way, however, im sure that is all secure and such.

I will have the encrypted MJ7 HOME tar shortly.

We need someone on MJ7 to do an emergency recovery in the VZW assistant to get the MJ7 FACTORY tar.

Edit: last time I did this I sacrificed my phone going to ME7 from MDK to get the tar. Any way to stop data going to the phone right after the program decrypts the tars?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Are you on MJ7 currently? If just let the phone start updating, and keep watching the folder thats encrypted, the second it decrypts, unplug your phone. But Ive never attempted the emergency recovery so I can help there
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joderme:
I wasn't quick enough last time and ended up on ME7, however, I didn't trust the MDK repacked tar at the time so I just let it flash up.

Edit: got it.

Is there a root method for this update?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ryno77:
If your on 4.3 already, no root yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
I tried, no success. The de la vega modified .tar.gz flashes then gives a "FAIL" in ODIN. Something about a verification failure.

Well, at least flashing the file here restored me to "Device Status: Official". :)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joderme:
What does the Knox say?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SellswordShev:
Sorry I didnt mean to imply you should try that root method, it needs to be updated for the MJ7 rom. The devs havent really revealed much about how it works, but the ODIN you flash to get root is currently based on MI1 which ofcourse wont work on an MJ7 phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] autostadt:

Oh, KNOX, not fox.. Knox still says "0x0", so flashing the failed attempts and the official ROM didn't trip it.

Two of these sns wakelocks are keeping ny phone from deep sleeping at all. Any reasons why this might be happening?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] nwsteeze:
At home or out and a bout the sns_async_ev_wakelock and sns_periodic_wakelock are low, but when I am at school they are constantly waking the phone and preventing deep sleep. Could this have something to do with the reception in the area that my school is in? Would LGNPST'ing back to stock fix this problem?

It happens on 4.3 roms and Nexogen ZVC 1.7. The reception isn't bad, in fact I recently started getting LTE there but the LTE doesn't work it just constantly shows the upload arrow and never downloads.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] oohaylima:
Hmmmm.....it is possible that it's continually trying to get a good reception, therefore draining the battery more. I know when I'm at the Unit I change the network mode to only CDMA.

Glad I'm not the only one up late today. :D
[Sprint LG Optimus G] nwsteeze:
That's the weird part is that even on CDMA only it still gets those two wakelocks constantly even though the 3g there is good.

Been a week on Straight Talk and so far so good. does anyone on Straight Talk experience data slow down?. and it so, when?. someone told me that the threshold id 2.5G.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] enigma2446:
I haven't yet but sure they will catch up to me... I used 4gb last month with no throttling but a friend of mine got throttled recently. I'm usually on wifi so 2.5gb is enough. They guarantee 2.5gb witch is alot considering every other prepaid/contract carrier only offer around 2gb or less on average but for 45 a month you can't beat it.

Why are you changing the apn everyweek ?

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] enigma2446:
Just for that reason of being throttled although I don't think it matters anyways but it seems to be working for me. I don't go over that much. I average around 3.2 gb a month

how much data can you use on straight talk till they slow you down 1.5 gigs? i wonder how strict they are on actually enforcing things.

its a tough call cause the $30 100min 5 gig tmobile plan is really good but i think the at&t lte coverage is better
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] enigma2446:
To be honest I'm not sure what's going on all your setting are correct but no data signal. Have you tried another Sim from a friend or family to rule out that the sim isn't bad(that's why there is muti contact points for different operations)? Also have you tried using the old h+ settings from the old Sims configuration.

There terms of use say 2.5gb cap so ur pretty much guaranteed that as long as your not streaming(music or video) continues. I use that much if not a bit more without any issues.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cindylee60:
is it simply a warranty void? Or does it do something more? does everything still work and can you update...?

I was just wondering exactly what are the implications of tripping the counter?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tech_head:
Warranty void if you try to go to Samsung. That may or may not be the case depending on which state you are in.

Go through Verizon for repair and not directly to Samsung.

Some features may not be available after tripping that flag. Most likely anything that requires DRM. The MHL adapter comes to mind.

yall can show at xparts (there is standing install cwm) sometimes it doesnt work on the latest version. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1437840

download the version 5 and install cwm again, if it shows cwm succesfully installed you installed cwm, if it doesnt i can show you guys how to install cwm by another way.

if it is succesfully installed you can reboot and put volume down when the blue light turns on at sony logo or go to xparts again and try boot in cwm.

Reboot in recovery when sony logo comes presss back button untill u get in recovery mode.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
This method is for locked bootloader, if you have an unlocked bootloader just flash a kernel with a recovery. Furthermore, this recovery will be gone every time you install a new ROM because this recovery is installed to /system partition which is wiped when you flash a new ROM.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biglo:
Thread title corrected.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stevedebi:
I'm not really sure what you are asking. "Firmware" is a name for software that resides in nonvolatile memory, i.e., memory that is not cleared when the power is turned off. All computers have some form of firmware. When the phone is turned on, it loads the basic operating system instructions, and then loads the rest of the software from the storage. Technically the storage on our phones is nonvolatile, but it can be written to and read like a hard disk, where as "firmware" has to be specially written to the hardware and can't be accessed except by special programs. Plus it is designed to be read before anything else.

When you update a ROM, it is generally being written to certain portions of the hard disk memory. When you update the "bootloader" you are updating the firmware. Each ROM is designed to work with certain versions of firmware, so check the ROM thread before flashing.
