[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arturojr:
Hello, today I've updated my GT-19300 to android 4.3 with the omega rom v51 and I want to uptade the kernel too. My current version is 3.0.31-1902166. I want to know if I have to use this Ultimate Kernel Cleaning to update the kernel and why it says that is for any ICS based ROM. My omega rom is jb based. Could I use Ultimate Kernel Cleaning if needed? I also have a problem installing the kernel XXUGMJ9 because when I'm in the recovery I see the Omega Rom zip but I erased it after updatin and it shouldn't be there and I don't see the kernel zip that I've put in the SD card.

I have flashed the second one from sd card and when rebooting I see the samsung galaxy s3 logo and after nothing. I want to know if when I install a ROM I'm installing a new kernel too.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arturojr:
Now after installing omega rom v51 again I could reboot without problem and I'm not going to change the kernel. Now I have another problem, I have 10.14 GB ocupied and I still doens't have anything else than the rom. When I go to the recovery and press on install zip from sdcard I see that I have one backup of the system but I can't find it to erase it from the mobile, I'm using the ES Explorer. But still one backup is no more than 2 GB, so what is ocupying my sd and how I can clean it? Maybe I have to do another tread.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vladakster:
When you update to 4.3, data from your extsd card are left in /mnt/extsd. Now your system mounts extsd on different point (/data /media /0). Just copy what you need to a new one.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ianclark001:
Hi all,

Sorry to be just another question of this sort, but after doing some research I don't seem to be able to find a solution.

Original Android Version 4.1.2

I wanted to install Cyanogenmod, so I first rooted my phone using a link I found on XDA using CWM Super SU. This worked fine as when I booted up I noticed requests for root access.

I then tried to install a nightly build of CM but when I ran the installation it came up with a Status 7 error. It seems that this is because of an assertion error, although looking at the updater-script file I can see the following:

getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-I9100" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-I9100"

I then tried to download CWM Recovery from various sites but each one fails on the device signature. I have the default recovery manager, and there's no option to turn off the checks (as I believe there is in CWM). What is the best course of action in this situation? Remove the assertions and try anyway, or is there something better? I've also read that I might need a different Kernel as CM10 comes shipped with Android 4.3.

Thanks for responses in advance.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingOfDope:
first of all,

"DO NOT FLASH A ROM THAT IS NOT MADE OR CONFIRMED TO WORK WITH YOUR DEVICE"

If that is not the problem, unzip the Rom.zip

go to META INF> COM > GOOGLE > ANDROID > updater-script.doc

and open it with your favo text editor and try to delete the whole line from Asserts (beginning) to the last ");

and then save, and go back and select META INF, system and Boot.img (so select al) and zip it.

try now to flash... Succes???

if you don't understand that check this video link: Youtube

Hi both,

Thanks for your responses. I didn't actually know that by pressing home+power+vol DOWN that I could go into download mode and that I could use Odin via that. Once I figured that out I got CWM Recovery on my phone and that allowed me to install CM.

Thanks again, this is clearly a forum full of some very switched on devs.

Hi, iam able to connect to a WLAN router. That is no problem, but if the access data to the DSL Provider are not stored in the Router itself i have to setup a connection to this provider via the PPC. Does anybody know, what to do in this case?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] inquisitor:
I have never seen a WLAN router, that can't dial in.

Actually that would make no sense, not only since in Germany you can establish only one PPPoE connection per DSL account, so you could be online with a single device only.

Are you sure, that you have a router or is it a Access Point only?

Anyway I doubt there is any driver for PPC enabling PPPoE.

Another Samsung fail.

Every news outlet I saw (including SAMMobile) was reporting, all trough past last 2-3 weeks, that 4.3 is confirmed for S3 and listed ANT+ as one of the coming features.

Well it was a lie. Its not there (and will never be).

Samsung really has to get their PR/communications team together. When Note3 was released, they forgot to mention anywhere (spec sheet, news, reviews, stage intros) that it had ANT+ support. That was one end of the stick.

Now they jump to the other end by reporting that it will come to S3 with the 4.3 update, which turns out to be completely false.

Here is the SAMMobile report for example: http://www.sammobile.com/2013/11/04...olling-out-for-samsung-galaxy-s-iii-gt-i9300/

Extract:

Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update now rolling out for Samsung Galaxy S III (GT-I9300)

CHANGES AND IMPROVEMENTS IN ANDROID 4.3 UPDATE

- GALAXY GEAR Support

- TRIM Support (Makes the device much faster)

- ANT+ Support

- Core UI elements updated to the ones on the Galaxy S4 (Galaxy S4′s theme all over)

- New Samsung Keyboard

- GPU drivers have been updated (Higher GPU benchmark scores)

come on, not post about every bug, the rom is not complete yet.
[Galaxy S III General] got-petrol:
The rom is complete if it ain't why did sam samsung release
[Galaxy S III General] oalex:
Please don't go into an argument about something you obviously don't understand. If you just cant hold back, then at least do some research.

Its not a bug. Its a missing feature. There is a big difference.

It is not something they can fix. It is something that will never be available (as in technological limitation in the hardware). Ergo its misinformation, plain and simple.

Edit: But they don't care. They keep reporting the same old BS today again: http://www.sammobile.com/2013/11/13/android-4-3-update-arrives-on-the-galaxy-s-iii-in-the-uk/

I just hate copy/paste news.
[Galaxy S III General] dkionline:
Not for every function must need an app. Screen mirroring is involved in this.
[Galaxy S III General] wangdaning:
I think the point is just because it did not come out with the first release of the firmware does not mean it will not be supported in the future. When they get past 4.3 and never had any support for it, then you can say they are liars.
[Galaxy S III General] oalex:
OK, which part of HARDWARE LIMITATIONS don't you understand?

Excuse me for saying this, but why do you guys insist on trying to enter an argument, that you have no (obvious) idea about. You want to look smart? You only end up looking a fool. Don't you think.

I am not saying don't comment, but please do a little background fact checking before do. Are ask question first, not make stupid statements.

Let me spell it out for you 'S3 WILL NEVER SUPPORT ANT+', no matter what firmware you put on it. Hence the news report is false or as I put it "IS A LIE".
[Galaxy S III General] dkionline:
look on wiki ^^

[tapatalk]printed, scanned and faxed...[/tapatalk]
[Galaxy S III General] wangdaning:
You put "turned out to be a big fat lie" which implies you previously believe it to be true. When did this hardware limitation come in, what info did you learn and where did you learn it?

You don't mention anything in the OP about the hardware limitation, which if you have info on this would be the most important info related to your thread topic IMO.

Not trying to argue, but the thread is a little confusing. If you have the info it would be great for you to share. The only things that come up on google are questions about it and the press releases you are saying lie.
[Galaxy S III General] oalex:
I am sorry. You are right about the "turned out part". To be perfectly honest, i did wish it to be true, however I knew it wasn't going to be. Practically wished the impossible.

I slightly wished that if all these news portals (especially SAMMobile, which has very close ties and inside sources with Samsung), they might know something that I don't.

About the limitation. You are right to ask for sources, but let me try to explain first as there is so much misconception about ANT+, as you can see, that its not so easy to explain. Not trying to hide links, just that (As you will find) the publicly available information is very very scarce, when you search for anything ANT+ hardware stuff.

Most people haven't even heard of the technology, hence all (I repeat) all the reviews you can find about Note3, ignored to mention this as a feature. They didn't forget IR, which is less useful in my opinion. Even Samsung itself, failed to mention it in any of there publications prior to the release of the phone. Owners only learnt about the support from finding ANT service updating on their phone when they turned it on.

Anyway back to why S3 wont support it... I will try not to be very technical.

ANT+ uses the same Bluetooth antenna that is available in the S3 (as with the S4 and Note3 where it actually is available) or most other current smartphone for that matter. However the antenna and software support are not enough for ANT to work.

Let me put it this way. If you have a b/g wifi router. It will not suddenly start to support wifi-n just because you rewrite the firmware and change the antenna. Or a better example might be a 10 year old Nokia (no matter what software you put on it) will not start to support Bluetooth 3.0, just because is had 1.0 on it.

The hardware limitation I talk of is in the SoC (Note: not the CPU). It needs to have ANT connectivity radio frequency IC with embedded ANT protocol stacks in the SoC.

Qualcomm is part of the ANT+ alliance, however not all their SoC have this feature 'onboard'. IT depends on which variant of snapdragon it is. I believe in their case it's called Qualcomm Atheros Bluetooth (yes its called Bluetooth, even tough its where the ANT+ is supported). Its not even about how new the the phone is. Many Sony Xperia phone from 2011 had the right snapdragon chips that supported ANT+ (Sony Xperia Active is a good example).

Now to give a good example of why I am not posting link. Look at the below wiki of snapdragon chips. Go to the bottom for example (snapdragon 800 or 600). It is a fact that these have ANT+ support, yet you don't see it mentioned anywhere: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapdragon_(system_on_chip)

Why yo ask? Well one of the main reasons is that players like Garmin (who are probably the main benefactors and driving force behind ANT+ Alliance), have no interest in making it as main stream technology as it should be by now.

They don't casue if it was then no one would by their $500 sports computers and watches. As the public would realize that they could do all those function (sports tracking) and do it better and even do much more, with a much cheaper smartphone. :)

[Galaxy S III General] steeeva:
Actually I thought I read it does have hardware support and can be enabled by new firmware, but Samsung has to decide to do it. Google "dcrainmaker samsung-mobile-devices" for one reference.

these people...just don't read the internet first do they...:p
[Galaxy S III General] oalex:
I know dcrainmakers article. I read it the day it was published. He is wrong. No one is perfect. I believe that he was misinformed too. He is a cycling enthusiast, and a sportsman, but not an engineer.

Don't tell me that you thing hr is better informed than SAMMobile. They realized that they were wrong too and have corrected their article (all new one).

These people... Just take everything that they read on the Internet as a fact.... :p

If you want to disprove me, cite some hard evidence (manufacturer startment or technologycal info). Quoting a bloggers suspicions is hardly enough.

P. S.: I like rainmaker, that is why I read his blogs. To ve perfectly honest, I was surprised that he got this one wrong as he has good relationship with ANT consortium itself. However ANT itself confirmed to an acquaintance of mine that S3 cannot and will not support ANT, meaning they had their facts straight and he did not.

I have seen other articles from him that were loosely based on facts. As I said blogger.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJMT:
Hi. I'm using with my N5 with t-mo in the US. I have a rule in Outlook (on my PC) that sends an SMS to my phone in the event that I get an email from a specific individual. So, the message is sent to XXXXXXXXXX@tmomail.net. This message arrives to my phone as an SMS.

With my prior phone (which was using a CM-based 4.2.2 ROM) this message would appear in my SMS client (Slide Messaging Pro; but prior to that was Handcent) identified by the email address, which would then map correctly into Contacts and bring up the correct contact picture (me).

With my N5 running KitKat, the message shows up as from a four digit code ( e.g., 3823, which varies from message to message), and the SMS client can't map it into Contacts to get the picture. Instead, the first part of the message is my email address.

This is hardly mission-critical, but I am wondering if there is some way to strip out the 4 digit code so that the SMS maps to Contacts correctly? I'm currently rooted but using stock recovery, if that matters.
