Thank you very much.

Unfortunately I already took the OTA to 4.3 .

I rooted my Note 3 with the original firmware cooked with Root de la Vega and didn't trip KNOX. Has anyone tried it with S3 firmware? Should I open a new thread?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] polar775:
any mirrors for the rogers 4.3 available?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cm0011:
I think now Samsung Galaxy S3 has a flash counter, every time you root or flash a new ROM it triggers this flash count. When I was re-rooting my phone after I updated to 4.3, it said in download moad that my flash count was one, which made sense cause I rooted it once on 4.1.2. So if they're really sneaky to check that, yes, there is warranty void evidence after rooting.

Well as a new user I can't post URLs, but:

autoroot(dot)chainfire(dot)eu

Grabbed the file from here and used ODIN to root by opening the file under PDA. I was able to re-root Android 4.3 on my Galaxy S3 after the official OTA update from 4.1.2 to 4.3 removed the root, using the file here appropriate for my model.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pappcam:
Can I dirty flash the stock 4.3 over S3RX (4.1.2) that I'm running right now using Odin? My method of flashing and not losing my apps and settings won't be available since I'll be losing my custom recovery.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ibuddler:
Does anyone know how to enable AWS in 4.3?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] maxqas:
Things you may not be able to do for a while after OTA update:

1) Downgrading to 4.1.2

2) Messing around with nvdata parameters

3) Unlocking your phone using serial tools

No known methods exist in the public domain yet on how to work around the new security features in Samsung's 4.3 implementation.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I have disabled OTA update on my i747m for that reason...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] D0T-C0M:
Any news on disabling/removing Carrier IQ from the firmware? I do not want that crap on my phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pappcam:
Anyone? I know dirty flashing isn't preferred but I'm wondering if anyone has done this.

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DexedrineXR:
Download an app called Disable Services on the Google Play market. Go to your android system, and disable that service.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] D0T-C0M:
Is this confirmed to work against this latest Carrier IQ in JB4.3? Everywhere I've read said that you can't kill the process or if you can it just restarts.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DexedrineXR:
Are you running stock with knox enabled?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] D0T-C0M:
No I haven't upgraded from 4.1.2 yet until this is sorted out
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DexedrineXR:
Disable knox, because that's what starts up the boot receiver.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] D0T-C0M:
I was waiting for a FIDO firmware rooted with no knox/carrierIQ. This CarrierIQ crap seems to act like a rootkit, who knows what that does in the background. I would rather have it physically removed before flashing if this is possible?

Also should I stay on the 4.1.2 bootloader?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DexedrineXR:
As I said, disable knox. Flash this zip in a custom recovery:

http://www74.zippyshare.com/v/82317628/file.html

That will remove knox completely. Then disable the iq service with this app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.disableservice

It will be in the system still, but extremely mangled. Therefore disabled.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] D0T-C0M:
Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] D0T-C0M:
I'm on 4.1.2 right now, should I hold off upgrading my bootloader? I'm assuming if I want to keep the rest of my warranty that would be a yes?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] maxqas:
I'd hold off... yes
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DexedrineXR:
It doesn't matter to me, honestly. The whole knox warranty thing (my research tells me that it isn't an efuse) is actually software related. Therefore time will run its course, and my knox flag will be a problem of the past.... hopefully.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] D0T-C0M:
what's new and improved in the new bootloader compared to the old one?

So many people on the samsung facebook page that are complaining about battery drain and other bugs that for me at least initially I think being able to fully downgrade back down to 4.1.2 is what to maintain for the time being until all this is sorted out.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ThaiM:
I'm currently stock, unrooted Rogers S3 4.3. Looking to root only and stay on 4.3. Preferably the least painful method.

Can someone advise? Thanks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] HiKsFiles:
Easiest method is the one detailed in the OP : CF-Auto root ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] D0T-C0M:

I've seen several questions on it and people downloading an app to do it. No need because the Developer Options are still on the phone they just need turned on.

Once done the Developer Options appears in the More Tab

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Holysmoke99:
Dell Venue 8 Pro is $229 now at Walmart. I so appreciate the roms here but sometimes wonder if Android is too limited.

I hate Windows 8 and avoid it on my desktop. I run win 7.

Sometimes websites just dont work well on android and flash is always a problem.

Would you return your Nexus 7 2013 for an even exchange of a Dell Venue 8 Pro?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Death666Angel:
No. The resolution is too low, 8" is slightly too large for most of my pockets and I don't miss Windows 8 applications while I'm on the go. I have an 11.6" 2in1 convertible tablet with a digitizer for my work related stuff and my Nexus 7 is purely for entertainment and consumption. For that, Android is well enough and the pros it has far outweigh the cons for me.

Now, if the Dell had HDMI/DP output, full sized USB ports, a normal SD slot or at least a 128GB SSD and a digitizer with a quad core Kabini, that might have swayed me.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Holysmoke99:
8" is too small to run windows in a desktop environment. I can hardly find my way around with big fingers. so then you need apps to make the tablet usable but then you remember win8 apps are non existent.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Winudert:
I agree with all - 8 inch is way too small for real Windows desktop. Android is perfect for 7, 8 inch tablets.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] woundedworld:
Also, media consumption isn't where it should be on windows tablets, yet.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] swisstourist:
I checked that today.

the Dell seem to be a nice tablet but 32gig is not enough for window 8.

for now I stick with window 7 on a old netbook and my n7.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Serift:
What are you talking about? Windows doesn't lack media options at all. In fact, it's one of the few platforms that can play basically everything. Even 1080p 10 bit h264 plays without dropped frames on a Dell Venue 8 Pro.

I have a Venue 8 Pro I'm playing with now, and I'm so tempted to switch at times. Metro performance is way ahead of any Android device in scrolling and loading. Metro IE is actually amazing fast and Chrome on desktop is about Chrome on Android. And despite running a full desktop and apps, it seems to keep programs in memory longer.

Unfortunately, while Metro app performance is really good, it's still seriously lacking in basic apps. There's basically 1 choice for IM outside of Skype. Only Metro apps have connected standby and get notifications when the tablet is asleep, so it's a major drawback. The virtual keyboard also doesn't seem to do any autocorrect on desktop, making typing a major pain.

I'm really torn. The 2 problems I have with it are major problems for me, but on the other hand, there's the performance and the ability to run basically any old program.

There's also a 64 GB version and microSD, so storage isn't that much of an issue.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ezas:
No way. I'd get one of the Galaxy tabs. If only for the reason that the Windows devices don't have much market penetration, and they are not at least semi open source like Android. Fragmentation has become less of an issue in my opinion as Android matures.

I just read an article yesterday that Windows 8 use dropped, just a tiny amount, while Windows 7 went up a bit.

Windows tablets will be like the Windows media players. While working well enough for purple who prefer them, their numbers will plateau at a fairly low percentage while the numbers for Android/iDevices will go up. To me that matters.

And I like Android, a lot.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] C5Longhorn:
I think it depends on what you want to use that tablet for. I agree with the others that the screen is too small for it to really be a productivity tablet, so then its more for consumables and I'd pick the higher resolution of the 7.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] [TSON]:
Unless you're comfortable with an external bluetooth mouse you're not going to want a Venue 8 Pro. Desktop applications + touch screen Win 8 = :(

Trust me, I have a touch screen laptop. You use the touch screen for Metro apps. the occasional scrolling/zooming, and that's about it.

EDIT: but for $99...

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] situman:
I have to say after picking up the HP Omni 10 Win8.1 tablet, I've grown to prefer it over Android. I can actually watch any movie files and things just work and not in a limited way. Everything is smooth and no crashes...yet but it's still windows after all. Still have the N7FHD of course for app games and such.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] wizzlewizzle:
I have the venue 8pro. And a Nexus 7 2013.

Market penetration means nothing when it comes to personal use and functionality.

They are totally different devices.

Windows 8 isn't the best tablet os, but it's great if you want a portable device to do Microsoft work.

For regular use I prefer the Nexus because Android allows me to install

3rd party keyboards and I've grown accustomed to using SwiftKey. So for the Windows 8 tab my opinion is that the keyboard needs vast improvement if you're gonna use it like an android tab.

Speed wise venue 8 pro is not bad. I recommend getting the 64gb version cause 32 fills up fast!

-Wizzle
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Holysmoke99:
I hated the Venue 8 pro so much that I returned it hours after purchasing.

Windows on an 8" screen is such a joke. Metro apps are such a joke.

Windows is for large monitors. Android is for small screens. :silly:
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] player911:
Yea. Windows RT isn't even full windows. Just a few Microsoft mobilized apps and some apps.

I honestly see using an 10" iPad or Android Tab for normal use, and remote desktop into a Windows 8 PC for business.

I do this now and its great. 1 PC at the office and I can manipulate my files and email them out all from my couch or hotel room. Sure its not going to allow graphic artistry or anything crazy, but Office and Email is perfect. I can operate our ticketing application with ease.

With this method you get the best of both. A solid mobile OS with tons of development and entertainment, and Remote Desktop for work stuff.

You can't remote desktop into an Android or iOS device.

Nice Tablet But I'm returning it

Literally just got the Venue Pro 8 its a decent tablet

but due to the lack of apps and how I use a tablet. I'm returning it.

I'm going to get a nexus 7 2013 or the nexus 9
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] player911:
I love everything about the nexus except the touchscreen issues. Its fine for anything that doesn't require quick actions like action games. In Terraria my guy is all over the place or unresponsive. Its extremely playable but has its quirks.

I'm actually looking at a LG G Tab 8.3, NVidia Shield, or Hudl 2.

I already have the N7 so I will just keep it for a while until something has everything I want.

7-8 inch with 64bit quad core, 3-4gb ram, stylus, IR blaster, Qi Charging.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] kisrita:
That is too pricy. I got one for $199 during the summer and another that was a refurb that was like new with office for $160. Its $199 now at Tiger direct and seems to be only $155 at Best Buy? http://www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-venue-8-pro-8-32gb-black/9514099.p?id=1219418178484&skuId=9514099

It's a capable little tablet, windows os 8 is not bad on a touchscreen tablet, but in desktop mode you will have a hard time using it unless you have thin fingers because of the small size of this tablet. OK for most women and children, but I think most men would get frustrated with it. The screen resolution/ppi is not as good as the N7, but shouldn't really matter unless you want to read ebooks on it. My biggest gripe is lack of apps, especially many Google services related apps, though you can make it work within chrome. I find myself using it rather rarely because it's just not that convenient. The pen you can buy for it is garbage, don't bother, and don't count on it helping you out if your fingers are too big for the interface. However, if you have small enough fingers, not using Google services, and you need a really portable true windows device, it's a great buy at $155 because it comes with an MS office key. I would not spend much more, it is getting old. I can see it in addition to an android or iOS device, but not as a replacement. It's a great portable computer, but not as convenient as a mobile device like android or iOS.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] kindofabuzz:
Android limited? It uses a linux kernel. Windows is what is limited.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] player911:
Agreed that Windows is not finger as friendly as android or iOS. The only thing I can't do on android is console into equipment through a serial cable for initial programming/maintenance. And I'm sure its possible I just don't know how to do it.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ekinnee:
I own both devices. They, to me, are two totally different devices. I tend to use my N7 for media consumption and reading. I tend to use the Venue only when I need to do more work related things like sysadmin tasks. For the most part the N7 is in my hand. The Venue is used more by the GF unless I need specific tools and don't want to break out the laptop or go to my office desktop.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] jbr6700:
Although having recently purchased a Dell Venue 11 Pro LTE at a price that makes me feel like a thief, I cannot say that I would recommend going with a 8" Windows tablet. Even with the larger screen versus the 8" model it seems "clunky". The one I purchased has 4GB of RAM and a 128SSD with a Core i3, not the lower end of the spectrum for a Windows tablet. If you do pull the trigger definitely spend the money on a stylus. Touch input is night and day vs Android or iOS devices. Maybe I am biased in the fact I despise Windows 8, but for general tablet use I always seem to migrate to my Nexus 7 for its ease of use. Probably depends on what you use your tablet for the most in the long run. If you are looking for a wide range of productivity apps that run with Windows go with the Dell, otherwise if it is general media, light gaming consumption stick with the Nexus. Happy as a Lark with my Nexus and personally thinking about "flipping" the Dell here. Just a thought from a house full of Windows, Linux, Android and iOS devices.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sardonik:
The past two days, I awoke to find my N10, on the pogo charger overnight, at significantly less than 100% charge. First time, I had left it on while it charged and it was in the 70% range. Today, having been off all night and on the charger for 7 hours, the charge only went from 50% to 86%.

The really disturbing thing is the discharge rate. I've only had it on for 25 minutes or so this morning and it's down to 78%. The battery system settings area shows 57% screen followed by Dolphin at 7%. That plus the fact that it won't charge fully overnight, even when powered off, seems to eliminate a misbehaving app as the cause.

Since this behavior matches what I saw when my iPhone 3GS battery was about to fail, I'm guessing that's what I'm seeing here. And, of course, I'm 10 days past the 1 year warranty (purchased at launch), so I'm probably on the hook to fix this myself.

I'll try turning it off and charging it via USB during the day today, just to eliminate the pogo charger as the cause.

Just thought I'd see if anyone else had seen this behavior and if it's definitely the battery/charging HW or if there might be some sort of Android SW glitch involved.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brGabriel:
You need to provide more info in order to properly troubleshoot. What version of Android are you running? Stock or custom ROM? Custom Kernel? Have you made any significant changes to your Nexus 10 since you've noticed the problem, ie. Did the problem begin since a recent update?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sardonik:
Sorry, forgot to add those details.

I'm on 4.3 stock. Boot loader has been unlocked, but the tablet isn't currently rooted. It was about a year ago, but an OTA unrooted it and I never got around to re-rooting.

No significant changes preceded this issue.

It looks like the 4.4 OTA just downloaded, but I'll hold off on installing it until I get this figured out.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brGabriel:
It may be worth your while to try the update to 4.4. Some users have reported faster charging times and if it is a hardware issue there wouldn't be much you can do anyway.

I actually had a strange charging issue a couple of months ago which I thought was hardware related but after a full wipe and a clean ROM flash the problem resolved itself.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sardonik:
Last night, I tried using my Galaxy Nexus AC adapter & USB cable in place of the N10 adapter and Magnector and...it worked. The battery showed 100% charge when I booted the tablet this morning. The battery still seems to discharge more rapidly than I'd like, but at least it got to 100%.

I'll try the Magnector on the GNex adapter tonight and, if necessary, a USB cable on the N10 adapter tomorrow night to try to isolate the cause.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sardonik:
Bummer. Looks like the problem is either the Magnector or the Pogo pins and/or associated circuitry inside the N10. Magnector using my GNex AC adapter fails to charge while a USB cable in the N10 adapter works just fine.

I'm going to try cleaning the N10 pogo pins and Magnector contacts with rubbing alcohol and see if that helps. If not, I guess I'll have to buy a new Magnector. Hopefully, one of those two options pans out. I really prefer using the magnetized connectors on the N10.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sardonik:
Cleaning the pins on the connector using rubbing alcohol and a q-tip & lint cloth appears to have had some positive effect. The tablet charged overnight, while powered off, from 35% to 76%.

I have a feeling that a more thorough cleaning might restore the unit to full capacity. Anyone know of something better than alcohol to clean oxidized connectors?
