Hi all,

just ordered my Qtek S110 today, hope it will get here within a weeks time. The phone is unbranded and unlocked.

It looks like there are a bunch of mods and upgrades one can use on the S110, but it's rather hard to get a good overview in the forum of what's the best/newest/essential stuff to get.

I'd like to hear what upgrades people think I should get (is there an advantage in using an i-mate ROM, for instance?), and what mods people consider to be essential.

What programs are you running? Desktop replacements? Best games? Best calendar? Backup software? Map software? Bluetooth headsets?

I'd really like to hear what people are doing with their Magician/S110/JAM/etc., and I'm looking forward to becoming an active member of this awesome community! =D

Cheers,

NightGolfer

Hi there!

I am looking to get a Moto X to be used with any GSM carrier in the US and Europe.

(I don't want to root it)

Do I need to buy the Developer Edition or can I also get the No-Contract T-Mobile one (customizable via motomaker)?

Thanks in advance!
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
The T-mobile is unlocked and good to go, no need to buy the developer edition.
[Moto X Q&A] tw1tch175:
They're the exact same phone x1053, make sure the LTE bands are correct for the carriers you want to use (5 and 7 are x1058 only)
[Moto X Q&A] Odelheim:
Are you absolutely sure about this? Do you know it for a fact, or have you just read it somewhere?

I contacted Motorola today, to verify that the t-mobile off-contract version indeed was sim-unlocked, but they replied that it WAS sim-locked, and also was carrying the t-mobile logo on the back.

I think it's really hard to figure out who to believe, since many are reporting that it comes sim-unlocked, but wouldn't Motorola be the one to know for sure?
[Moto X Q&A] scottjb:
I can't verify whether it's SIM locked or not but I have one in my hand and the T-Mobile XT1053 does not have any branding on it. There is no logo on it. There are no T-Mo apps on it either.

Ok... so in games, Google has made it to where if you slide down from the top of the screen in full screen games, you can now view and aces quick settings without breaking up the game.

Is there any way to make the home bar behave in the same way during such full screen apps\games as well?

There are too many games where the slightest finger bump into home territory breaks the gaming experience. In games like asphalt this is especially true, and during multiplayer match ups, you're kicked out the game entirely which is really frustrating when you're doing really well, in first.

Hey guys.. :)

So, you want you lockscreen to show your live wallpaper?

Then check out post 8 in this thread! :D

Original question:

Hey!

I've already been looking for this for ages, but without success..

So.. Is there a way to mod the stock JB lockscreen to make its background transparent?

(So live wallpapers etc are visible ^^)

I have already found a mod for Xperia Go which included a theme with transparent lockscreen background and a modded UxpNxtLockscreen.apk file with added support for transparency.

But it doesn't work on our T/V because of the difference in dpi.

So, could anyone help me out with this?

Thx in advance! ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
Hi!!

Try "Light Sony lockscreen" in add-ons section in this thread.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
Working with the Light Sony lockscreen ?

Anyway, it works for me.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
I did the following:

1: Remove your old UxpNxtLockscreen.apk

2: Go to recovery, wipe cache, dalvik cache, then fix permissions (just to be sure :D)

3: Download the UxpNxtLockscreen.apk from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2259985

4: Move it to system/app with the right permissions (rw-r--r--)

5: Reboot

6: Download the Purple Theme from the same thread and open it as a zip

7: Extract the semc_theme_lockscreen_wallpaper.png and move it somewhere to your sdcard0

8: Select the image as lockscreen background in the settings

9: Set your desired homescreen live wallpaper

10: Done! ;)

Just gotta mod the lockscreen because it still shows the navbar and somehow becomes dark upon touch. But for the latter a fix is mentioned in the thread where I found the lockscreen mod.

So we just need some friendly guy to decompile and mod this one for us :D

Won't be that hard, I'd do it myself, but I don't have the time right now. :)

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sph0nz:
Hello,

I have been trying to play Puzzle and Dragons on my stock ROM rooted PLAY 2.3.3, but I cannot update the game, because my phone lacks 177+MB of internal storage (where the data is downloaded). The game is on the SD card which has lots of free space. I have tried Link2SD, but that does not move data files, and I am having trouble with Foldermount. Can FolderMount mount the data to SDcard if there is no data downloaded yet? Is there a way to force game updates to downloaded to external SD card? PAD support team is not helpful with this issue.

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzakpo:
Before someone tells me, YES I know this is a common problem and YES I know there are lots of thread that talk about this particular subject.

But I think I'm having a different problem.

I had a I9300 unbranded that, for some reason, didn't wanted to update through Kies or OTA. But It could make calls and send txt msgs.

I decided to update it manually using ODIN to the latest official firmware for my phone (XEF - France). I downloaded it from Sammobile. Everything went perfect. Then I wiped everything to just to be safe.

Everything works great. Wifi, Apps, everything. Except making calls or sending txt msgs. It says "not registered on network".

My IMEI is still the same as before (the efs didn't get corrupted I guess).

Anyway, I have a backup from every partition. So I can get back to the previous state. But I want to fix this problem! Does anyone knows what's wrong?

I use to have this:

PDA: I9300XXBLH3

MODEM: I9300XXLH1

CSC: I9300XEFBLH2

Product Code: XEF

Country: France

And I flashed this:

PDA: I9300XXEMG4

MODEM: I9300XXEMG4

CSC: I9300XEFEMG2

Product Code: XEF

Country: France

Did I do something wrong?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RickEphraims:
You're not having a different problem at all.

You've installed an MG4 modem

Start reading the topics on mg4 modem flashing
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzakpo:
Would you mind telling me what's exactly the problem I'm having?

I have another i9300 with the same modem and that one works fine!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RickEphraims:
Your original modem was version one but when you installed the mg4 modem and it changes your EFS to version two.

All sorts of problems can happen now.

Try installing patched Mg4 modem which is found somewhere on here
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzakpo:
Oh...f*ck!

I used the firmware that was supposed for my phone. Nothing else. Everything stock. I've downloaded it from Sammobile. I can't believe it!

My IME is OK. It's the same I used to have before (when it worked). Are you sure that my EFS is wrong now?

Can't I flash another firmware? I still have my EFS backup.

Which one should I've had flashed of these?

sammobile -> /firmwares/1/?model=GT-I9300&pcode=XEF#firmware

(Sorry I'm not allowed to post links yet)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RickEphraims:
If you backed up your EFS before the upgrade , you have two choices.

Go back to the original firmware and restore your EFS from backup or

Install patched mg4 modem found here on forums.

Sometimes the modem is not compatible with your region.

You can flash any of the newer modems available here as well.

You just can't install the older modems as your EFS has been changed to EFS version 2
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzakpo:
I've been reading this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2377731

But I still don't undestand something. My IMEI is showing correctly. Shouldn't the phone work anyway regardless of the Modem version?

The problem on the modem version is that once is changed, you can't revert back unless you have an EFS backup. But that doesn't explain why my phone is not working. Am I right? I mean, it should work! I have another i9300 with the same modem and it works...

Are you sure this is my problem? I don't see the logic behind your sugestion.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Flashing a full stock rom, EMG4, including the modem shouldn't break anything. You say your phone had issues before you flashed, did it have any unlock or serial (ariza) patches applied?

If so then they won't work on efs v2 and you'll need to apply the patched modem, or flash an earlier rom (from before EMG4) then restore your efs backup.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzakpo:
My phone was rooted and it didn't update though official methods (I don't know why!). I wanted to leave it to stock. That's why I flashed the stock rom. Thanks god I did my backup. But I want to keep this version, It is official and it's the latest one. It should work!

I've bought the phone on Amazon and it came already rooted to my surprise. I just wanted to return it to stock, Should I start worring?

I actually backed up everything except USER DATA partition. So I can still take a look at the system partition I used to have (I guess...).

My previous issues where related to my phone not wanting to update. But the network connectivity was ok.

If I flashed a new stock rom... can I still have remanents from the previous rom? I also wiped everything. Does that make any sense? (sorry I'm kind of new in all this).

PD: I'm getting scared!!! :crying:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Best go read the efs 'know this stuff' thread in general forum, stickies for more information and links to help.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RickEphraims:
Sounds like something got screwed during the update. Installing the patched mg4 modem should fix it

---------- Post added at 09:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 AM ----------

Yes reading the stickies is the best way to get the answers you require. Each problem encountered is slightly different.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzakpo:
The stick says "Also it would seem, Phones that had this patch ON EFS v1 ROMS will break their IMEI if they upgrade to EFS v2 ROMS."

My IMEI is ok. So I guess I didn't have ariza patch installed. That's a relief.

Anyway... I think I'll wait a bit. Maybe it'll fix itself ( I'm just lying to myself here haha).

Ok more question RickEphraims. Why exactly I need a "patched" modem? I don't want to revert to EFS v1. I just want my phone to work properly. Wouldn't it the same to flash stock MG4 modem again?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RickEphraims:
I'm no expert but the patched MG4 modem has worked for lots of people. It's still an MG4 modem.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzakpo:
Ok. Thanks.

I will try to flash this version:

And then restore the EFS partition.

Or should I do it the other way (efs first and then flash).

I want to stay official. This is not a phone I will be using so I don't want to leave a root in place or anything like that.

Any advice on this regard?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RickEphraims:
Flash original firmware and restore EFS.

That should put it back to stock

---------- Post added at 09:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:51 AM ----------

I'm not really qualified to give you advice.

I'm just speaking from experience of what I've done to fix mine after flashing an MG4

I hadn't backed up EFS so it was way harder
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khaaba:
Easiest to try and check COULD BE:

1. Goto setting-> More Networks-> Mobile networks -> Network operators

2. Search for network service provider and select it !
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzakpo:
Ok. So I flashed the previous official stock firmware (efs v1). As expected, the IMEI wasn't ok. So I restored my EFS v1 backup. IMEI was ok again. But I still get "no network".

I'm now going back to the original firmware (4.0.4) to see if it starts working again.

The phone is unbranded and apparently from France (XEF). Can I flash any other firmware? France is not my country although firmware 4.0.4 worked alright.

Also, Is there a way to know if Ariza patch was installed before I got the phone?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Check the phone serial number matches the one under the battery. Ariza patch fixes serial number problem on efs v1 only, it didn't fix imei issues.

If it's an i9300 then any firmware will work, you say 'apparently' from France, you should know this information -it is suspicious that do not.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzakpo:
News news. I flashed back the original firmware 4.0.4. It didn't work.

To my surprise, the serial number is 00000. THAT is my problem. And I now undestand why it was rooted from the start, probably it had some sort of patch to make it work (like ariza).

Now I'm not sure what to do. Send it to repair (I WILL be expensive in my country) or try the zuluman patched modem. But I guess flashing the patched modem is postponing the inevitable... :(

What a luck...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
There was a post in general forum where a guy edited a file in efs folder to restore serial, you can try that or update to EMG4 rom and apply the patched modem.

You will probably find patched modems get released for newer roms, don't stay on older firmware -they cause SDS.

Edit: the thread about restoring serial I'd actually in q&a, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2544109
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gonzakpo:
Woaw... nice find. I'll take a look.

Anyway, positive news at last. I flashed 4.0.4. Nothing, serial is lost forever it seems. So, I flashed again the previous version to MG4 (still 4.1.2), then CF Root then restore my initial efs backup and finally Ariza Patch (offline). NOW ITS WORKING!! :D

Not the best solution I know. Buy at least it works. I think I will leave it that way until a worthy stock update comes out. The i9300 4.3 is a pos according to EVERYONE! haha. In the meanting, stock 4.1.2 works like a charm.

Anyway. Now I have two possibilities:

1) Research on how to restore my serial.

2) Send it to a professional with a box to restore the serial.

Now my phone says that it wont update because I have a custom rom. But you know what? (I'm looking at you sammy). I LIKE IT THAT WAY haha.
