[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
I don't think there'll be a problem, but do this, go into recovery and do a factory reset.. After that your phone will boot normally :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] kingston73:
Well, that's the problem, unless in doing it wrongi can't get into recovery. Just to make sure, it's volume up, power, and home. Do I let up on any of the buttons before recovery or hold them all down until I see the recovery screen?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
T-Mo will honor your warranty just fine. If anything, there will be a deductible from Assurion.

To your problem, Recovery indeed is Vol Up + Home + Power. You don't let go of any of them till you see recovery. Secondly in order for Odin to do its thing, the phone must be in download mode. Download mode is VOL DN + HOME +Power. Again you don't let go until you see the Yellow triangle
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Once the blue text flashes on top of screen I release the power button only. But it does also work if after the blue text, when you see the Samsung logo, you let go of all. (I let go the power button because if you hold it too long the phone will reboot again.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheLastSidekick:
One thing about the deductible from Asurion..

They will give you a new phone usually with a box and accessories and a battery (at least it did when I ordered a replacement for an LG Optimus L9 for a friend). So take your battery out, your SDCard out, keep your charging cable, your headphones, etc. Only send the phone and cover.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lex_Michdeandroid:
So I have this old Samsung i9000 lying around and I wanted to give it a new life with an update (ran Android 2.2, so it was pretty useless).

I started by looking up all installation instructions I could find (took me a whole day to make sure I had it right) and the procedure was:

Update to CM9 first, then update to newest CM.

Pretty simple I thought. But as usual I ran into some troubles I can't get myself out of. That's why I'm asking you guys to help out.

What I did: set up all the drivers and downloaded the Heimdall suite and Semaphore 2.7.4 CWM. Then ran the "heimdall flash --kernel zImage --no-reboot" command. It uploaded the zImage to the phone. Pulled the battery, booted with Vol Up & Home & Power. At this point I'm stuck on the GALAXY S GT-I9000 SAMSUNG boot thingie. When I press Vol Up & Vol Down & Power it seems as if it bootloops. The boot thingie flashes.

I can't get into the system, I can't get into recovery, I can however set it up to download stuff (the yellow under construction Android sign), so I'm guessing there is a possibility to upload something else that works in stead...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
Just to let you know what you did wrong.

when you have a 2.2 froyo ROM, you cannot flash a gingerbread kernel on it and hope to get it booting.

The solution is , just follow this guide and flash the gingerbread ROM as mentioned after that you can chose what custom ROM you want on it .

Check this out! You , YES! you are an " Android ". Not your phone but U.​

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lex_Michdeandroid:
Of course... I'm an idiot... I thought I would have the newest update from OTA, but didn't check what was the latest official OTA...

Anyway, back to the lab, will update as soon as possible.

Edit: filerio is really ****ty... I'm going to try to find other downloads...

Edit2: got files from Rohitdahiya's post, now waiting for downloads to complete

Something else, the yellow thing isn't coming up in Odin, so I guess that will be my next problem. I can't put the phone in 'debug mode' because the main system doesn't start. Also something that occurred to me was that when charging the big green battery doesn't come on screen anymore. It just shows a static circle of bars...

Heimdall could connect to the phone no problem... Downloaded the Heimdall rescue kit, but I'm not sure how to use it...

Edit3: And indeed the Odin software doesn't recognize the damn thing... Trying to find an install for this KIES.exe to make sure I have the right drivers installed...

Edit4: Awesome. KIES starts "Installing device drivers. This may take several minutes." and never stops... Now my device isn't detected anymore... Just great.

Edit5: I reinstalled drivers with Zadig. Found out Heimdall rescue was just a .bat file... I already said I am an idiot right? Anyway, now trying the rescue kit again...

Edit6: Using the Heimdall rescue was all there was to it... I'm retarded! Had this rescue kit sitting there for a week and it didn't occur to me to JUST USE THE GAWDDAM BATCHFILE INSIDE THE GAWDDAM FOLDER...

Anyway! After running the "Restore.bat" file and choosing the 1. option (Flash and repartition) it went on doing all kinds of good stuff and now I'm running 2.3.6... Now for the next step, getting it to run the latest CM (or a variant).

Edit7: Okay, good things come to those who wait. Started all over after getting the 2.3.6 on the device. Followed CM instructions:

-USB Drivers through Zadig

-Put the phone in download mode (Vol Down + HOME + Power), plug in USB

-Extracted the zImage from the .tar into the folder that holds heimdall.exe

-Run "heimdall flash --kernel zImage --no-reboot"

-Make sure he's done, take battery out, reboot into recovery (Vol Up + HOME + Power)

Find out it's working fine! THANK YOU!

Now I'm going to see if I can get the latest CM running. Again, thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pclov3r:
Will the Nexus 5 require a SIM for CDMA Only operation?

My goal is to get a Nexus 5 working on PagePlus.

A possible problem I see is the phone refusing to work without a SIM.

What do you think?

Hopefully it's possible to go to do something like *#*#4636#*#* and force it into CDMA only mode.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harsaphes:
Morning all. So last night my Note would not power off. I would hold down the power button and the screen would go dark but there was no way to power down. At this time the phone was unresponsive in other areas as well. I finally had to do the three button hold to get it to turn off. I did not pull the battery. After the phone booted normally but seems "slow" compared to what ever happened before.

Anyone else experience this or have an idea what caused it.

Not rooted.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lollo_k:
First of all good morning/afternoon/evening depending on where you currently are and living.

My name is Lorenzo, Italian, currently living in France. I just registered and unfortunately I could not find any "Presentation" section so I'll do it here expecting some of you perhaps to post a link to that section assuming it actually exists.

After my excursus I would like to post my question as an happy owner of a new Samsung Galaxy S4 - I9505.

I just rooted my Galaxy because I wanted to try different solutions in order to get rid of this annoying CARRIER NAME on the status bar (see picture).

I have already tried different features as "XBlast Tools" or "Wanam Exposed" with little success considering that all I managed to do is just hide all the notifications through the command "Hide left notifications in status" with XBlast, little success because as written I managed to get rid of the Operator name but that implied to get rid of all the other useful notifications as: Whatsapp, Messenger, Viber etc.

Please help me out since this string is extremely bothering me.

Thank you guys, and thanks to xda-developers community for the job you are doing! :good:

Phone: Galaxy Ace 2

Rom: Carbon Rom 4.3.1

[G2 General] nismo300zx91:
I find the stock messaging app to be abysmal to say the least. Ridiculously corny background wall papers, an input box that unnecessarily consumes a large majority of the screen, and a change in orientation defaults you back to the beginning of your thread.

Is there anything else available? I dabbled with GoSMS temporarily, but uninstalled it when I started noticing odd behavior to accompany large amounts of spam. I also tried the 4.4 Hangouts and enabled the SMS functionality. Loved it, but experienced issues receiving messages (both SMS and Hangouts) and was constantly clearing cache to resolve. Perhaps installing the stock JB messenger? But in doing so I would like to disable to stock messenger since with GoSMS I would receive double notifications from MMS.

Thoughts?
[G2 General] eggman89:
Textra us the best.

I hate the stock message too, very cartoony. But I've still kept it as default because of the non blocking popup which comes in top corner. All other apps which have the popup features, makes them come on the screen and you can continue till you interact with them.
[G2 General] samomamo:

[G2 General] milestide25:
There are things I really don't like about the look of the stock messaging app, but I really love the unobtrusive popup in the corner when you receive a message. If I were just able to customize it more, it would be a total winner. I would prefer a black theme and the ability to totally change the bubble settings rather than choose from 5 presets that all look terrible.
[G2 General] Steamer86:
Not to give big red too much credit, but they make a pretty decent messenger app...
[G2 General] calbruc:
Sliding Messaging.

Very clean and very customizable, though it lags a bit here and there on my DNA. Probably better on the G2, but still my favorite!
[G2 General] jrgilbert79:
You do realize today you can change the background to any picture including a different one for each contact. You can also change the text bubbles.
[G2 General] milestide25:
Yes. Of course, but also, the text bubbles are very limited on the D800. Not sure if the Verizon one has more customization, but the AT&T one has maybe 8 presets. Of course you can change the background on each one, but it still doesn't solve the popup being white and the bubbles being very limited in customization.
[G2 General] sweets55:
When you look at your people in the stock messaging app you can't change that to dark which is my only issue with it for the most part. I just wish all apps had a inverted option. Better on your eyes and battery life.
[G2 General] zPacKRat:
Textra
[G2 General] MNk1ng:
I agree but cannot move on due to the quick reply functionality.

You may want to try the 4.4 apk of hangouts. That is the new messaging app for Aosp. It seems to work well and you do not need to be rooted.

[G2 General] WizeGuyDezignz:
I really like Textra, but not having an unread notification count on the icon is a deal breaker for me. It's kind of crazy but I really rely on that.
[G2 General] Chris Hansen:
How do you get it to install? I am rooted, and I tried to update via Google Play, but it won't, because we are 4.2 and not 4.3. I tried pushing the apk (setting permissions of course), and I still am left with the old Hangouts, as well as completely removing it and installing after a reboot, and it still won't take.

How are you doing it without root?
[G2 General] ousoonerchase:
I use Textra and Tesla unread. I get my unread counts and the best texting app. For me there's no beating Textra's pop-up and quick reply.
[G2 General] Bigralphn:
If you do a Google search or search xda you should find the files needed. There are a couple files you need. I do not have root. They installed fine. Only issue I had was with the launcher. I ended up removing it and then uninstalling all the Google search updates. I still have habits on here and it works great
[G2 General] Bobaroo:
8sms is great. It is CM 10.2 messenger app
[G2 General] absinthex:
I couldn't stand the stock messaging either. I've tried all that were listed in this thread but the one that I've stuck with for a month now is 8sms. Strikes home with CM for me. Very fast and simple. Don't care much for customization. Also built in emoji.
