I'd flash Root66 image (which is rooted stock TW) to the phone via ODIN. That typically also flashes Stock Recovery. Confirm that has happened. If not the counter will trip each reboot despite Triangle away resetting it.

If you are now in a position with Root66 plus Stock recovery, then reset the counter and then reboot to confirm it has. If it did, uninstall Superuser/supersu app, Triangle away and Voila! you are ready for warranty exchange.

P.S. - Check if the phone still gets bars. We have heard some horror stories of people selling their phone and then reporting it stolen for free replacement.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! This method worked. I did the triangle away app. Went to download mode & flashed Root66. Everything seems "stock" right now. Gonna do a factory reset & leave some feed back on what happened.

Had my baby momma send me a text & I got it. Am I considered back to complete stock out the box? No troubles sending it back to Samsung/T-Mobile if I have issues? I did the "Full UnRoot" in the SuperSU app and it disappeared on it's own.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
Is it normal for this T-Mobile bloat/crap notification to be in the notification bar/menu on stock? And is there any way to uninstall or disable them without being rooted?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Appears you are full stock, uprooted, with a 0 flash count.

---------- Post added at 05:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:58 PM ----------

Pretty much normal. Some you can configure to not bother you, some you can disable in app manager, some you can just turn off notifications by in checking the box in app management.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
"New T-Mobile Offer" keeps popping up in my notification bar. It's annoying.

*Edit*

Alright, I disabled this T-Mobile my account app in application manager. It went away from the notification bar for now.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
How do I turn on "Multi-Window"? I'm on 4.1.2 Baseband: T999LUVAMB7
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Long press back.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
That doesn't work. I don't see a multi-window option anywhere. I checked in the notification toggles when you pull down the notification bar. I checked in "display" in settings. I don't see anything for multi-window. Am I on the latest OTA? I have the LTE version of the S3 for T-Mobile, I don't know if that makes a difference or not.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] helius@comcast.net:
Do the pull down, then scroll to the right, enable multi-window, then the long press back will bring up multi window panel on the left :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
There's no "Multi-Window" option in the window panel. I have the T999L. Would that make a difference? I flashed the Root66 earlier today. Is that the latest OTA?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] helius@comcast.net:
Scroll to the 'right' after pull down

---------- Post added at 05:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:30 AM ----------

but if you don't have the option in settings / display then you may not have the current version of jelly bean I don't know.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Good job going back to Stock. On Multi Window, if in the notification shortcuts, there's no button, then check under Settings > Display. Can't remember the exact option.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I don't remember for sure, but I'm thinking the T999L doesn't have it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
I already checked "display", still nothing. I just wanna make sure I'm actually on the latest ota. Maybe there's a glitch or it's missing in the root66 file I flashed?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Don't think so. Could be wrong but pretty sure it's not included with yours.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Thank Me Later:
It's weird because the picture gallery isn't updated either. It's the same gallery on the S3 when it first came out, not the Note 2 picture gallery. Oh well, if it's suppose to get 4.3 this month I hope it brings those features over. I wouldn't mind the Note 3 software on my phone minus anything that's S Pen related haha.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dozyaustin:
I am solving this as we speak, so I will update, but went to BB, bought the N5 (I have my reasons why I bought there, not from Play store)

The box states, software lock is in place to prevent the use with non-Sprint sim cards. Also Sprint brochure in box, and no pin-tray key in the box. In other words, the phone is packaged for Sprint specifically.

I bought it, I will call up Sprint and T-Mobile (which is who I want to use) and see what's up.

Anyone else has info?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jj14:
Wow - can't imagine how they are doing that. Worst case scenario, I'd expect that you should be able to download the stock image from Google and flash it to remove any such lock
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dozyaustin:
it is ridiculous .. called sprint .. first response (formulaic) was a no (need to be on their line for 90 days blah blah blah ..) I have not gotten hold of anyone who knows what Nexus 5 is. Will keep trying
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dozyaustin:
Can you please help me how to do that? This is my first Nexus. Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxpower7:
I really hope that being simlocked to Sprint doesn't affect Android updates down the line. It shouldn't, because it's technically not a "Sprint variant" of the phone, but you never know.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jj14:
Wait till you get the phone. For all you know, it may be SIM unlocked like the version from the play store. For other phones like the S4, Sprint does have the 90 day requirement before unlocking it for use with International SIMs.

On the Nexus 5, hopefully, they haven't locked down the US bands (like they do with the S4 and other phones). The play store version is not locked.

The http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2513701 thread shows you how to flash the stock images - but again, no guarantees that it will do the trick till you actually try it out.

I didn't want to risk this, so I just bought from the play store. I asked the play store person if the phone was guaranteed to get timely updates direct from google, and he gave a "Phones purchased from the play store will get timely updates from google" response. I'm guessing it was a canned response, but I do hope that Sprint doesn't cripple the version sold by Sprint/Bestbuy etc.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pclov3r:
That's pretty crappy. I'd return it.

No, Flashing the stock image will not remove the SIM lock. The SIM lock is stored in a different place.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maxpower7:
As he stated in the OP, he bought the phone from Best Buy and got the info right from the box.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dozyaustin:
Update

Sprint Tech Support confirmed the phone is locked. The problem is that they COULD unlock it, but the phone needs to be activated first. To activate the phone, I have to add it to a plan (a 2 year contract). Without that, they cannot do anything with a "cold" phone. Thus far I got nowhere .. the plan is definitely to return it if they do not budge.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freshlysqueezed:
I purchased mine from the Google play store as well.

Why would sprint sell it at a subsidized price of $150 or $50 for new customers without locking it to their network during your 2 year contract.

Also, I bet sprint will only unlock it for international use during the 2 year contract. Just like the iPhone and s4.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dozyaustin:
Well sure, I understand that with the subsidized phones, but I paid it up front - I paid the full $450 for a Nexus. I wanted an unlocked phone ... it's a bum deal.

I am trying to find out whether a friend of mine could activate it on his account, I get it unlocked, and then we re-activate his iPhone back ... not sure Sprint will go for it.

Ugh .. I just want a Nexus 5 you know? ... and this seemed like a fine way of getting it (My old Captivate died finally for good on Tuesday. and I do not really have $350 just siting around, so the $100 markup was my financing "cost" to get 18 month of payments (I have no interest financing through best buy; my other card has high interest .. it was not a bad financing plan). Ugh .. if only Sprint let me unlock it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dozyaustin:
Returned it. will get the tmo version next week. i really wish the wait on play store was shorter. my phone is dead ... waiting is too painful.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] STXInnovation:
Did you actually test it out on another carrier? There are reports that the version is the same as the Play Store (unlocked) on Reddit.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capathy21:
I don't think Sprint has any clue what they are talking about. I had a 200 dollar BB giftcard so I went in tonight and purchased a "Sprint" N5 and I don't even have Sprint service Ran by the AT&T store and picked up a micro sim, popped it in and everything is working perfectly. The device is definitely not locked to Sprint. Full LTE data with AT&T without having to configure anything.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] STXInnovation:
That's great to hear. Makes me feel comfortable of using my Amazon credits to purchase one!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capathy21:
Yea I know I could have used the BB giftcard for something else but it meant I got a N5 for 250 plus tax out of pocket and I got it without having to wait! Love it so far and like I said everything works perfect. Android Central got the official word from Sprint and Google that their version is the exact same as the Play Store version. I trust them much more than some Sprint tech lol.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] STXInnovation:
Could you provide a link to Android Central? I just want to be completely sure before I order.

Thanks :laugh:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] capathy21:
It seems like there was another link but this one also breaks it down.

http://www.androidcentral.com/nexus-5-models-whats-different-between-two

I am using one right now with my AT&T sim and everything is working. The device even has an imei number which Sprint phones usually do not have(or at least didn't used to when I had Sprint). They only made one version of the device for North America and it is compatible with Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dozyaustin:
That is very strange. The T-Mobile did not work. Makes me sad.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phrozin:

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfriend33:
I know right?

I'm deciding if I want to take the plunge. Only thing enticing to me is the nav button backlighting turns off when viewing video.

And the faster 4G to send a screen shot to my bestie to brag.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redddog:
So far, I like it.

4G is about twice as fast, camera is noticeably improved and touchless seems totally flawless.

This is the best phone on the market right now.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bc760:
Just like mentioned, connection is a lot better/faster and noticeable improvements on the camera.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doogald:
The only complaint I have seen so far is that you can now activate the Google Now arc by dragging up from any of the capacitive buttons. It used to be just the home button. Many people apparently are hitting the back or recent apps buttons and accidentally dragging up, causing the phone to do the Google Now arc rather than back or show recent apps.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caseyk621:
I have noticed that about the Google arc... Its annoying to me that I have to be more precise with my button pounding :mad:

Also my screen has randomly been shutting off as if the timeout is set at 15-20 sec (actually set at 5min.) Turns on with no lag once I hit the power button. Like I said it seems random to me. Anyone else see this?
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billyowings:
I haven't had another random reboot since the update.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @work:
The camera is consistently good which was my biggest complaint before. In addition my data seems to have improved at my desk. I had been getting around 5 mpbs now I am getting close to 14 consistently. Thats about all I have really noticed. I miss 4.3 and its better location services from my gnex, but hopefully kitkat will be here soon.

PS the google now arc appears more often. until I read this thread i didnt realize it was because of the update. Have not noticed the capacitive lights either, but it sounds like a plus.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Piaband:
Everything seems fine to me. I havent really noticed any changes. My 4G was always pretty good. I havent used the camera enough to say anything about that yet. I havent noticed the google now arc at all.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigv5150:
My only complaint is the google arc everything else is positive. I don't think the arc will be in 4.4 anyway google now is on the left screen when you swipe on the stock launcher I believe.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaemonAshra:
the arc is still there in 4.4. it's never going away
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caseyk621:

Having major issues with proximity sensor. Can't type on phone in landscape or screen shuts off. Very strange.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] notalent_assclowns:
I have noticed more time without signal with the latest update.

Also, the bigger problem is that the car mount no longer charges the phone. All other chargers work just fine, but for whatever reason, the car mount doesn't charge anymore. It senses it still and knows it's in the car, but uses battery instead of charges.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DFG87:
Same exact issue here. I usually hold my device with my thumb somewhere around light sensor. Well ever since update, the screen will autolock after a few seconds if I hold it that way. Very annoying
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osucowboy96:
I'm not real happy with the "improved" wireless charging. It won't connect to my Tylt charger as consistently as it did before, so it's randomly disconnecting/reconnecting. This is especially annoying since I charge my phone on my nightstand at night. That coupled with there being no discernible way to turn off the WirelessChargingStarted sound, I have had to take my phone off the charger in the middle of the night every night since the update as it keeps waking me up.

I use Lux auto Brightness to do shut off nav lights. It works great. Check it out. There is a paid and free app. I have the paid app so not sure if it is on free version.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlmesq:
Did you try to stop the sound by renaming or deleting the WirelessChargingStarted.ogg files?

I had changed the extensions on those files to .bak, hoping to stop the sound. (Didn't work.)

When I took the OTA, I had the same problem with connecting the TYLT. I changed the extension back to .ogg and charging is rock steady again.

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osucowboy96:
Yeah, I did that fix a couple days ago. It worked for like two days but now the sound is back. It came back after I downgraded the version of Xposed I'm using, so I'm not sure if that reverted anything. Haven't reapplied the fix yet to see if it works again.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] osucowboy96:
OK, at some point the original apk got restored and I had to overwrite it again, but the sound fix is working again. Not sure if it had anything to do with Xposed or not.

Good Evening all,

I got a o2 exec in uk and had a couple of questions on how it works.

1:- How do I get voice activated calling to work?

2:- Does itt have a radio, and how do i get that to work ?

3:- I have installed tomtom 5 and it works except that when i remove the car charger (or dont plug it in), my screen goes black after a few seconds, how do I stop this?
[General Topics] Anton.Valleyman:
You'd be better posting this in the Exec forums....

1) The button second from left on the side of the unit that looks like a speech bubble (next to the camera button). Or, Start > Programs > Voice Speed Dial. If you don't have any recorded then it will prompt you to add some - unfortunately it doesn't interpret your contacts, only recognise any recorded sounds you have linked to a contact. Have you read your manuals as this is explained in there...

2) It does not have a radio, though if you're connected to your PC / connected via Wi-Fi to your PC then you can stream via TCPMP or maybe even WMP.

3) Your screen goes black because your power settings dictate to turn the screen off to conserve power after a preset time. Start > Settings > System > Power and also the System > Backlight settings will help this by changing the times, etc.

I strongly suggest you look at the manuals as this is also explained in there.

Im guessing your ran some initialisation of environment with root as permissions...

try doing a

./extract-files.sh path_to_folder

If it still doesnt work delete all the folders in the sourcedir except ".repo". then,

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imperia777:
Hello,

I was using stock 4.1.2 rom for my i9100 with Siyah 6.05b kernel.

I decided to try NeatRom to get rid of most of the crap-ware in the stock ROM.

So far so good. But the problem with the battery started here:

I charged the phone to 100%.

After a few (2-3) hours, battery shows 95%.

Phone suddenly died like battery is empty.

I am unable to turn it on with the power button.

If I remove the battery for 2-3 minutes - the phone boots but the battery shows 75%.

Two-Three hours more and my phone is completely discharged.

I used BetterBatteryStats but there are no major Wakelockers. Everything looks fine.

I also used CPU Spy to monitor deep sleep state. Everything looks fine here too.

I decided to give Dorimanx kernel a try. Same problem - huge battery drain. (extreme_battery profile used)

At that time I thought that the problem is in NeatRom itself, and I decided to install my old Siyah kernel before I go to stock ROM.

Surprise surprise everything is back to normal - 24 hours+ battery time.

So the conclusion is that I have huge battery drain with Phil-Z and Dorimanx kernels.

Maybe they have some driver or feature that drains my battery without visible process that keeps my phone wakelocked.

I am open to try any suggestions to fix this issue. I want to try Dorimanx because I heard it should have even better performance and battery than Siyah.

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alrahambra:
I think DorimanX is the best kernel ever created, go ahead and use it
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jeetu:
Buddy all kernels are best . It depends on how you use your phone.

If you are using apps like Viber, facebook these apps were running continuously which is the main reason of draining battery . So you must greenify these apps and install Battery Monitor and check which app is using more battery.

Try Apollo kernel . As Dorimanx kernel will not as smooth as Philz.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stonedpsycho:
Neatrom for me has great battery life Im getting 7hr screen on time! With the stock kernel. Are you on the latest version 5.3.1? Give the battery afew cycles and it should sort its self out. Defo not rom related.
