Thanks for your reply.

Kies, didn't work for my at all. Even when the phone was in downloading mode.

I followed this guide and when I reached no.5 I was unable to enter my model number.

http://www.droidviews.com/firmware-upgrade-encountered-an-issue-solution

Trying Win 8.1 (current working system and a clean install of Windows, plus Win7 on a laptop), various USB ports/cables.

Nothing worked.

After I got my phone fixed, I tried Kies again as a test. I couldn't get it to work. Kies said the phone couldn't be initialised or something.

Why do you think that one of the service centers or Samsung will give you software or information
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zetex:
The software and JTAG that samsung own are not for public use.

You do see the odd person pop up offering this service and the are usually service agents for Samsung.

I was just thinking if I had the name of the software.

I might be able to find a leaked version online and not have to waste time and money in travelling to a service centre, should the need arise again.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zetex:
I think you will need the USB dongle as well as the software to force a flash, not sure if the dongles are available, maybe try eBay

Thanks. Yes they available, example:

They just appear to allow you to enter download mode.

I suppose if you can already access that mode, there's no point buying one.

Hi,

Could someone tell me if there's a way to change/remove the icons from the today screen. I'm talking about the little butterfly, the house, the messenger icon and the envelope.

Thanks

Did you steal your device or something ? ;)

It's in the manual, but here you go...

disable and re-order the Today Screen items there

I'm much the same, actually... I like to just sit down and poke at things (found the today screen settings that way, for example).. but manuals do sometimes have good information that you can't easily stumble upon otherwise.. so once I feel 'ok' with a device/piece of software, I read through the entire manual once, and highlight (or note down) the bits that are interesting and seem non-obvious.

Hi guys, the title says it all, it would be very cool if there was the possibility to launch notifications in spen windows (or also launch apps from recents in spen window) by long pressing it.

Is there already something like this (maybe an xposed module)?

Or is someone able/willing to do something like this?

Try to see if in the stiky for windows 8 drivers, and flashtool windows 8 instructions if anything works there for you.

Do your PC recognize the phone, even in flashmode?

Windows key + R, type devmgmt.msc, connect the phone and look if the screen turns white. If it recognized then flashtool should have it too, if not, install drivers as [MENTION=4371915]chicke[/MENTION]D said.

Cm11 Bootloop

i flashed cm11 android 4.4 kitkat on my phone today .... even after doing all the wipes every time the phone boots after like 20 seconds of use it goes into a bootloop

i thought it was a nightly-1 error so i flashed mclaw's version but the problem still persists :(

does anyone know a solution for this ?

Thank You

p.s : i changed to cm 11 from MIUI v5 . is there a problem there ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
I wasn't talking about flash mode. When in CWM go to mounts and mount USB storage at the bottom, in theory you should be able to mount it on your PC, never work for me though because I cannot find the MTP drivers or maybe my CWM is not the greatest, but I never had one that did work.

Did the disable driver signing from flashtool site didn't work either?

Also look at this post and see if that works for you.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] weirdovivek:
dude i've tried every possible method,but nothing worked for me...and in cwm also i was not able to mount it on my pc :(

P.S:now i've flashed stock from my friend's pc and reverted back to cm11 ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] weirdovivek:
flash the latest kernel,do all the wipes,format system,flash the latest nightly

u have to format ur system before installing cm11 but be careful..i got a status 7 error while flashing the latest nightly so i was stuck in a bootloop....put an additional rom in ur sd card(in case if anything goes wrong u can flash it) and edit the updater script so that u dont get that error

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] weirdovivek:
maybe u should try the latest build which is out just now check cm11 thread

follow the intructions for flashing the rom as suggested by op in cm11 thread and u will have no bootloops
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] manudo:
Man, flash other ROM that it worked on your phone. I think the most important here is to get out of that bootloop so flash stock or other ROM like eXperience.

Later on you can flash CM11 from the computer.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Jasonchewy91:
coming from n8000. Just got my p605 yesterday, disliked some of the things I've seen and wonder if they are common problems faced by others and perhaps solution for them.

1)air view doesn't scroll through pics in gallery or auto preview videos

2) pen window sucks. Is there any way to invoke mini apps like in the older generation note? Why change things when there isn't any problems

3) I'm syncing from my note 2, although it says calendar and s note synced, doesn't appear on my new tablet

4) polaris office 5 does not accept annotation saving on doc or ppt format, only pptx and docx. There is forever something wrong with polaris

5) is there any way to disable air command on a per app basis. For example lecture notes app i would want to use stylus button for changing input method to eraser

6) is there any way to disable s finder when long pressing menu button? I would want Google now to come out instead

7) ezpdf is much laggier and stuttering as compared to using on first gen

8) YouTube experience some stuttering when playing videos

9) weird white lines when using lasso screen cut function, moving the small lasso toolbox

I would need to root it, after reading a lot there doesn't seem to be much support or tutorial for rooting p605.

Is there any way, using cf auto root, which will not break Samsung warranty?

What is it about knox flag and efuse? The only thing i care about is not breaking warranty (or can break but able to reset back counter) and I'm not a business user. I would also like to continue receiving updates on root.

So is there any method which allow me to do it? I've read about universal de something method but it isn't very familiar to me and I'll prefer to stick to older way like cf auto root or odin.

Thank you so much for the time!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
It's a very different tablet my friend with very different s/w and approaches. I got rid of my N8000 because I replaced my N7100 with a N3 and the differences between the two (the N2's like the N8000 and the N3's like the N10.1-14) were driving me crazy. There's some stuff on the N10.1-14 that's odd (EG: full screen notification panel, phone UI features on a tablet) but you get used to them after using it a while. For me, there's more than enough benefit to make up for some of the strangeness.

Nope. The gallery's been redesigned and you don't have a choice of views anymore. You can still preview video's in the redesigned video app.

I like the new multiview approach better than the old one. The former cascade/dual window approach was kind of schizophrenic. There are a lot more options now (two of the same app, save apps combinations so they open in pairs, and pen window). It's great that I can use the same approach on both my N3/N10.1-14 rather than the different approaches used by the N2/N10.1-12. Some people like the old approach and some like the new approach better. To each their own.

S Note's format changed and they aren't compatible between the N3/N10.1-14 and the N2/N10.1-12. You need to get a N3. ;)

C'est la vie. It would be far worse if it were the other way around (.doc worked but .docx didn't).

Nope.

With the last update to Google Search (Now) I was asked which I wanted to be the default, Google Search or S Finder. I use S Finder so I chose that. Try uninstalling the Search updates and reinstall them. Maybe you'll be given the same option I was.

Probably the app hasn't been updated to natively support 2560x1600 yet. There are only three devices with that resolution: N10, TF701, and N10.1-14. You'll find other apps and games that aren't optimized yet either. Write the developer; most have been very responsive.

Mine haven't. Don't know what to tell you.

I haven't seen it but I haven't done a ton of lasso work yet.

Thanks guys for the input!

The Youtube stuttering problem is really getting crazy. Tried reinstalling and no use.

Many of the software changes are really gimmick.

I really can't live without root, and there's still no method of rooting without voiding warranty.

The multi window implementation due to pen window is really annoying.

I'll just have to live with my old note with a slightly inferior screen and weight. Really enjoyed the productivity of my old note.

Most probably selling this new one away.

I too have noticed the stuttering, but it' occured to me that there is a new function on the Tab that they introduced with the Galaxy S4. It is called Smart Pause. If you look away from the tablet, it will stop playing (with a little delay) and if you look back you will catch it while it is paused. I dissabled that and youtube went fine after that...

Hello,

I just gave my magician (t-mobile mda compact) a hard reset because it was getting a little slow. Because i was going to do a hard reset anyway i decided to install the newest T-mobile rom update 1.13. I didn't want all the T-mobile customization, so i did the softreset trick, and installed the cabs i did need afterwards manually. Everything is working allright except for sms messages. I made a backup of my sms messages with Jeyo mobile companion, and tried to restore. The thing is that the whole sms folder is gone, and it doesnt return by restoring the backup. My guess is that i forgot to install a cab file... If someone knows which cab file I should install or if there is another solution I would be very gratefull.

Hi all!

For a long time I had been searching for a ROM, that would be able to manage virtual buttons on my Nexus 4. Finally, I found what I need in Slim ROM. It is very good ROM, but now I want to use 4.4

So my question is: Is there any 4.4-based ROM, without any bugs, that can help me set my virtual buttons (their functions, and positioning)?

Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
There are many roms that can do this, CyanogenMod, Paranoid Android, AOKP and SlimRoms. There isn't a stable KitKat build for any of them yet. Look in the "Nexus 4 Original Android Development" section for updates. You can install the nightly versions if you wish.

You can also do this with stock using Gravity Box module for Xposed Framework, which isn't working for KitKat yet.
