I asked a craigslist seller of a Tmobile T889 unlocked phone for the IMEI number to check if it is blacklisted and he refused, citing his (good) IMEI number can be used to replace the IMEI of a stolen phone. Is that really possible or is he hiding something about what he is selling?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] CalPolyRock:
Using custom ROMs, CWM & TWIP, backup apps like Titanium and Reware MyBackup, etc. are not new to me. I've done my share of ROMs on various phones & tablets.

It's really easy to say wipe data for best results when upgrading to a new Android version or ROM. That's typically what I've done as recommended.

But, when a carrier like T-Mo finally pushes out their update, for example the MK2 to move to 4.3, the data gets upgraded automatically and reliably. Obviously no wiping of data.

I don't want the locked MK2 bootloader and KNOX. Other than that, I'm OK with mostly stock.

If I flash one of the MK2 modified stock ROMs on top of stock 4.2 (maybe just rooted), will it upgrade the data just as it would when you do a carrier upgrade? If necessary, I would also flash the latest KT kernel & modem, so Wi-Fi calling would work and the latest baseband would match. Again, as close as stock for now w/o locked bootloader & KNOX.

This would save me a lot of headache and hassles with having to use Titanium for apps & data. I can always also do a Nandroid to back up before an after this entire process.

Has anyone tried to upgrade to the latest modified stock MK2 ROM on top of a stock MDL ROM and keep their data?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] egren58:
If you flash the rom you have to use titanium but believe me it's 10 times better than doing the ota.. It's worth extra step.sit down watch TV and let titanium do its thing.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] CalPolyRock:
A little background... I've been a SW developer for 20 years. I want to understand how stuff works. I have no problem screwing around with my phone, Nandroid, wipe data, etc. and have already done so. My wife just wants a working phone and could care less. I want to upgrade her phone w/o locking her bootloader and w/o KNOX in case I want to use her phone later. She wants all here system and app data to remain identical, otherwise, I'll have to hear her *****ing & moaning until I fix it. :)

Technically, is there any difference between flashing a the modified 4.3 stock ROM w/o wiping data and doing a traditional carrier upgrade in how it handles the upgrade for any data partition? (ignoring bootloader & modem upgrades). Does the carrier upgrade do anything different after it formats and installs onto the system partition? I wouldn't think so. Please correct me if I'm wrong here.

Also, I think it can be sketchy restoring TB System Data from older OSes (4.2) onto newer OSes (4.3). I'm particularly referring to stuff like SMS/MMS/Call Logs/etc. Maybe I'm wrong here and a newer OS is always expected to be able to upgrade order system data if restored?

So, in order to retain all that stuff (for her phone), it would seem that simply flashing the modified 4.3. ROM onto a dirty 4.2 data partition would be exactly what the carriers do when they push the update form 4.2 to 4.3?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tyler.Boston1:
Here, go to this thread follow the directions in the OP carefully and your wife will be on the latest boot loader Knox free MK2. Once you've finished that then you can flash any type of 4.3 ROM or 4.4 and not have datadrops or any problems. Pretty much doing the 4.3 ota for the bootloader but Knox free.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] CalPolyRock:
Thank you for the response, but it doesn't address the specific question. Additionally, I don't want the latest bootloader because its locked
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Tyler.Boston1:
If you upgrade that way I suggested it gives you an unlocked updated boot loader
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] xdapowerapps:
Flashing roms without wiping is not always a great idea. If you do... atleast clear cache and dalvik cache. You won't lose your data but you may or may not have issues. YMMV. As far as transferring system data from different Android versions, that is a no no. Just backup your sms and what not using the various programs on the Play store, most of them do a good job. What I REALLY recommend is for you to make a Nandroid backup using Nandroid manager or through your recovery such as CWM or PhilZ. Once you have this backup safely stored on an EXTERNAL SD card or on your computer, you can experiment and flash away. I doubt you'll have problems since the upgrade is minor but just have your backup handy... it is critical in case you have problems after doing the dirty upgrade and to avoid getting your butt whooped by the wifey ;)

マスター！どのようにコーディングを教え！

So since i couldent find any guides that actualy helped me to do with C, Linux,Android, android kernels , kernel modifying CODING IN C or anything like such... i then decided ill make a thread :D

Almost all devs i know are strapped for time or just dont have a XS anymore :( if not that they just ignore me :crying:

So this was originaly posted by our Well known RaymanFX and it seems his questions are exactly what i want to ask :D

[Q1] How to overclock a kernel

which files are needed -> kernel source

what files need to be edited ?

is the cpufreq driver related ?

how to determine which frequencies need higher voltage and how high exactly ?

[Q2] Undervolting

which files are needed -> kernel source ..

what files need to be edited

is the cpufreq driver related

how to determine which frequencies can use lowered voltage and how to calculate them ?

#ifdef not RaymanFX's Questions

[Q3] how to overlock your GPU

which files are neeeded

what files need to be edited

what determines your GPU voltages/clocks

how to determine what your hardware can handle

[Q4] how to add features like fastcharge

What files i need

what files need to be edited

where are great places to learn about sutch things

[Q5 Addapting

adding features from other kernels may work but if they dont then how will i addapt them to work (wide horizon to cover but lets use display drivers for an example)

if not adding features, lets say Porting 4.4 from Sony Xperia ZU (which is a nightmare for devs (or so says one of the many gods of developing we know as letama) couldent we just use most of the coding for the drivers which was officialy release by sony?

(in short, could we use drivers from our (SXS(L)4.1.2 to port 4.4 from ZU)

If we were to use drivers from official firmware to use on a unofficial firmware, what would we have to do for them to actualy work with the firmware that we are porting

#endif

- i know some tiny bits of this already from playing around with ForzaFerrarileo and DooMLorD's Kernel Source (only enough to fix the smallest of problems)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Dark Wraith:
Cannot answer all of your questions but i'll try to answer as many as i currently know

Every device is specific but some parts are same..For example i'll take Xperia S as an example..

Q1..

For overclocking you need. acpuclock-8x60.c for xperia S. You will find it under kernel/arch/arm/mach-msm/

You will find a few lines defined under the structure struct clkctl_acpu_speed

so lets say you wish to add frequency 1782000...

based on the pattern add:{ {1, 1}, 1782000, ACPU_SCPLL, 0, 0, 1, 0x21, L2(22), 1325000, 0x03006000},(you will recognize the pattern from the lines in the file itself.

that is just an example of changes to one line. There are many more to edit. A good place to start would be to study someone else's OC kernel's features. You can study his/her github source to see the changes added for overclocking.

is the cpufreq driver related??: Didnt understand your question. technically you can add OC to any device. Only point is if the board gets heated up badly, it will shut down. Not burn itself to death. So there is a limit to how much u can overclock a processor..Try increasing step by step and then test. If board gets heated up to the point of shutdown, you will know ur processor's limit.

higher frequencies would require a higher voltage if performance is concerned. One suggestion here is to to give a 25 V increase per line of freq you add. What you might be asking is undervolting. What if your cpu is running at a higher freq and if u give it less voltage.right? In such scenarios your phone will be at a medium state. Where it is giving a minor compromise in performance to save battery. Giving high voltage with high freq will give you the best performance but at the cost of your battery.

Q2] three files(xperia s)

avs.h,board_semc_fuji.c

vreg-fuji_nozomi.c all under mach-msm folder

which freq and use less voltage...any freq can use less voltage. you give it less voltage and cpu wont perform as well as it would if you give it more voltage. udervolting is added so that you can have a minor compromise in performance to save ur battery. Eg: you are OCing your device at 1.8 Ghz. now you give it 1.3 V...It is running very very fast with a lot of battery drain. Now you undervolt it. you give it 0.8 V..Processor doesn't run as fast as 1.8 GHZ should run but still faster than normal but your battery is preserved.

Q3] I have forgotten totally,sorry. But i had studied Doomlord's kernel sources to find out about GPU. It would be a good place for you to start as well

Q4 and Q5] I have vague knowledge about these so wont be able to help you much. By porting do you mean porting some kernel modules from a different device to your kernel??

so this demmo unit is like all other demmo units from Samsung?

If the IMEI is repaired still the gsm won't work because the radio part is missing from the mainboard ilke is in i9300?

I placed the AP_N9005XXUDMJ7_2019540_REV03_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 which i extracted from the archive (2.2 gb after extraction ) at PDA section as i previous did with other devices ....and the pit file at pit section .Auto reboot ,repartion,f reset time marked.

And after that all seemed to be succesful but i don`t know why isn`t working and i only get the neverending reboots.

Thank you very much for this firmware, just a small question , is it Android 4.4.2 ?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ul71m0:
So here is my saga with demo unit.

I got phone with demo firmware on it few weeks ago. I flashed latest Germany firmware and had various hangs/reboots whenever i try to play some video (in youtube app, in facebook app, in browser) , or record video with camera.

So i started to flash random custom roms, and was pretty satisfied ( had smallest number of reboots) with CM 11. But still this hangs were happening, usually when i leave phone on charger or not use it much.

Than i came to this thread and i tried to flash this 4 files. But i couldnt because it is 4.3 based rom and i couldnt flash bootloader.

Odin gives me an error on the beginning of flashing. So i tried to flash 3 files without bootloader and after odin finished i was stuck in bootloop.

The only solution to get phone back working is to flash stock firmware from sammyfirmware including with .pit file and repartition.

But now i have other problem, bunch of reboots, even on custom roms. Camera gives "Warning: Camera Failed!" I tried few stock roms and few custom roms and not luck with camera.

So my questions are:

Is there anywhere Live Demo Unit Firwmare that i can flash on phone to revert it back?

Is there any regular firmware that have this 4 files separated ( Bootloader, PDA, Phone, CSC) or how to make one, to try to get at least this camera working, as im thinking that flashing them separately broke my camera?

Anyone else got Live Demo Unit working with some stock rome without this reboots/hangs?

Hi Fahim, thank you for your offer, do you have unit with demo software?

After a lot of flashing i found some combination that works for me, im still not sure what i did, but it was really anoying to download and flash so many firmwares.

I got my camera working normal, and only freeze im getting is when going to video mode, and usually only when device is just turned on. The are 50% chances to get reboot when using video on fresh booted device. Im not sure how to fix this but it is acceptable for me to have or like this.

Than again i would like to have rock stable device and i currently only way, that i know, to backup your current room is with custom recovery...

I will research a bit on this and let you know if i find easier way, but rooting and recovery are really simple 2 minute process.

Just to confirm you have SM-N9005? When i take off back of the phone in down left corner on plastic under the battery it writes SM-N9005 and same model is written on screen while booting the device.

Thanks again for your effort.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fahim1040:
true..my demo unit is as stable as a rock.haven't had any issues with it. I do not know which firmware is in it. When switching the device on, it displays Samsung galaxy note iii sm-n9005 and in the back under the battery it says sm-n900x..I do not want to unlock the bootloader and root without backing up the ROM. As I said I am a newbie to android so I am scared to root. btw if I do want to root what files do I use?..I can only find the files and instruction for rooting a n9005 not n900x.

few question though..

1)do you think a regular note 3 firmware with the radio/modem files of my device make a stable demo unit? As far as I know the phone boot loops when a ordinary n9005 firmware is installed because it cannot find the gsm/cdma/hspa modem.

2)Is it going to be possible to flash the modem files separately for overwriting the stock modem files after installing a ordinary n9005 firmware. how?

3)are the kernels, pit files and modem/radio files included in a firmware and also nandroid backup or does one have to flash them separately.

When I turn it on , it says galaxy note 3 live demo unit , and below the battery 'n900x not for sale' is written.

Only thing I did, was to delete the animations and pictures , other than that , I did not delete preinstalled samsung crapware from the rom, just used app quarantine to freeze the apps.

I am sad with the fact that you say that there are no stable roms for this phone, because I would love to flash some AOSP clean rom , but your experience is that it wont be stable ? because of modem hardware missing ?

Anyway, I could help with the 'almost' stock condition of this demo unit.
