I applied the t-mobile RUU_Prodigy_1060204_105_11210_TMO_UK_Ship.exe upgrade and all has gone smoothly.

In order to no longer have t-mobile dictate my homepage and other extended ROM, I did a soft-reset after initial boot process (straight after hard reset).

The device is much more responsive than before with NO lock-ups at all!! Great!!...so I thought.

1) Have installed operator settings, but got no MMS.

2) Camera pics are specled with snow - need a camera patch desperately!

3) Lost the functionality of changing the lower 2 softkeys - is there a single .cab file that can replace this?

4) Would love a simple .cab to replace bootscreen - but not essential to the running of the device.

If I could just get these things fixed and there are no software conflicts, I believe this to be a very stable OS.

Can anyone help? Much appreciated in advance.

To change today softkeys run the program attached and then you can go to system settings in the start menu every time you need to change it .

To change the boot screen you have to use awizard http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=37386&start=0

I did the same thing: and now I don't have the Intelli Dialer :(

Someone knows how to install it? Which file in the T-Mobile UK extended rom should I install?

I tried the SmartDialing_enable_0915_signed.cab but is not working

This little 'Wizard' perform better than my old Jasjar!!

Try 'Buttons' home-cooked ROM. It's great!!

Sorry guys, I've tried 'Buttons' Custom Rom and it Rocks in conjunction with the TI OMAP overclocking utility and 'batti' a useful battery checking utility with CPU temperature gauge. The ROM is also totally free from branding and annoying customizations and even the bootscreen picture can easily be replaced!!

My Vario now rockets along at 240 Mhz with only minor rise in temperature, but I'm still evaluating.

I would also hasten to add, that you don't need to be a guru to apply the ROM upgrade and other tweaks and improvements. Just take the time to read all posts of a particular thread and make sure it's NOT a new thread, as established ones usually carry with them the problems and solutions.

All said and done; it's not perfection by any means, but it sure is getting close!! :wink:

Great work you guys who take your skills and allow us all to get the benefit from it.

@ mackaby007

Is the keypad mapped the same as the o2 XDA Mini S on Buttons Rom?

I've tried other roms and the keypad layout is different to what is on my keyboard.

Other than that it's not a problem.

I'm going to try it out now anyway!

Keyboard layout needs one registry tweak (change value to a different number - each country has a different one), but all information is on the same thread.

Hi Chazam. I'm glad it's worked out for you. It all went bad for me I'm afraid. :( But I've now moved on to Qteks 1.6.7.1 ROM in the hope of a stable ROM.

I'll keep You all updated by means of a new thread once I've 'thoroughly' tested out this one! I spoke too soon last time, but that doesn't mean everyone else who tries this particular ROM will. As a matter of fact, most who've tried it praise the guy who made it, Button.

So all the credit goes to him and those that helped him cook up that Custom ROM. :wink:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hdbueller:
I too am happy with the rom. I would sure like a copy of the 02 plus V2 for mine tho. Also, I had to remove the Magic Button program as it was causing lock-ups and a soft reset was all that would fix it. Once I removed it,my Wizard started working like a champ!

Hello,

I am running a AT@T samsung galaxy s4 1337

I rooted with kinggo android root. Then for custom recover I have Safestrap. I rooted to see what all i could do but after trying different Roms I have noticed I don't care. Much for it.

I unrooted via the kinggo app. And verified with root checker.

But i want to go back to full stock. I noticed Safestrap is still there running in background. But the custom logo is gone.

I just want to go back to stock and have nothing to do with root.

Can someone please tell me what I can do to make this happen.

Please and thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] hovax615@hotmail.com:
You need to read the safestrap thread to take off safestrap 1 you have to be rooted and use terminal emulator or 2 remove from adb.

And be able to do a factory reset because every time I try to do a reset I get into download mode and says can't normal boot. And I have to power off and power on holding the home button so it will actually boot.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Minecraftian:
So i used the method from DooMLord to root my LT26i.

In that method i had to flash my .96 kernel back to .211 root it and then flash it back to .96

But when i tried to flash it to .211 I rebooted my Xperia S i checked the build and it was still .96. The strange thing is that it told me about a new update. The .96 one, but I already have it so it mindf's me. It says that I can only install it through the PC. So i tried and it says that the Sony servers are down ATM. Does anybody know what's happening?

EDIT: The servers aren't down I can install the update but i still don't get the reason why it's telling me that there's an update for a build that I already have.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Envious_Data:
its a odd bug

i have a update for my 96 build to 96
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Minecraftian:
Well, i still don't know how to flash it into .211. Whenever i try to do it with the flashtool it stays on .96 any suggestions on what I should do?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Envious_Data:
oh right

check if your drivers are installed

also check if you have a correct ftf installed

maybe updating flashtool may help

i had this issue with a older version of flashtool
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Minecraftian:
Yes, i followed a tutorial on how to install my flashtool drivers, because it wasn't installing. Now that i installed them it still doesn't work. I have the correct ftf. I downloaded it from his post. And i have the latest flashtool(0.9.13.0). Any suggestions?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Envious_Data:
to root right

it only flashes the 211 or 200 kernel provided

it wont change your build number

your kernel version will change (if sony changed it between 200/211/96)

soz i misread initialy

Flashed KitKat OmniROM on my Find 5 few days ago.Everything is nice,fast,fluid and fine but there are few key things missing.

Questions:

Why is "Tap & Pay" removed?

Why is "Google Caller ID" removed?
[Omni Q&A] Larry94:
You simply need to go grab the Google Caller ID APK from the Nexus 4/5.
[Omni Q&A] Karlo666:
I did but it crashes every time when I place call
[Omni Q&A] Entropy512:
Tap and Pay - Because we have an NXP NFC chipset and Host Card Emulation is NOT yet supported on any device with an NXP chip.

A lot of CM maintainers have been flipping on HCE on devices with NXP chips without bothering to test it. End result is lots of people embarassed when Wallet says it's all ready to go but nothing happens when they tap the device to the terminal.

https://plus.google.com/+AndrewDodd/posts/i5ZT4s7i3ah

You might notices that the HCE perms are missing from the grouper device tree - note that this is the only currently supported Nexus with an NXP NFC chip. All of the other KitKat-supported Nexus devices have Broadcom (NCI) NXP chips.
[Omni Q&A] formula84:
Would it be possible to pull all the NFC bits from the gpe ROM to get it working on aosp?

---------- Post added at 04:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ----------
[Omni Q&A] Entropy512:
The discovery that HTC has implemented HCE in their NFC stack is relatively recent.

Unfortunately, the whole HTC NFC stack is closed-source, so we can't pull it in. While the Java side of things can be decompiled easily, most of the magic happens in JNI code that is far harder to reverse engineer.

Between the Java side of HTC's APK and Doug Yeager's previous work on NXP HCE with CM, in theory it should be possible to implement HCE on AOSP, but right now, it's a massive amount of work.
[Omni Q&A] KILLplay:
But I've successfully used tap to pay on an Aosp 4.2.2 rom before via the wallet app. It worked fine for the CM11 based Beanstalk rom for a while. What's different here?
[Omni Q&A] Entropy512:
Wallet on 4.3 and earlier is the "legacy" Secure Element-based approach. This doesn't require HCE.

As I understand it, "legacy" SE-based tap-to-pay has now been removed from Wallet. Rumor has it that 4.4.3 might include NXP HCE.

[Samsung Galaxy Mega] AToddSmith:
I've been using this app for about 2 months now without any problems, up until about 2 weeks ago. Now if I'm in default LTE mode, my laptop and tablet can connect to the hotspot, but I can't open a webpage in Firefox on either device, it just times out. I've verified that Firefox on my phone can access them. Also, I can open a cmd prompt on the laptop and get successful pings on google.com, but it still times out on the laptop or tablet.

If I reboot the phone to be on CDMA/EVDO then everything works fine, just slower. I'm on Sprint. I sent an email to the developer, and he stated he didn't think it was a problem in the app itself but advised me to check the APN settings. I can't seem to locate them on this phone.

Anyone else having this problem, or have any suggestions?

Thanks.

Try changing your DNS to 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 4.2.2.1 4.2.2.2 4.2.2.3 4.2.2.4 etc etc
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] AToddSmith:
Didn't change anything. Re-reading my original post, I realize I wasn't clear on a point:

I can ping google.com and get replies from a command prompt on my laptop when I'm attached to the wifi router and the phone is in LTE mode, but my web browser (firefox) will not display the google home page. If I select CDMA mode on the phone, then I can get to google from firefox.

Since I'm getting ping replies, I doubt DNS is the culprit. Seems like it's something with port 80. I'm starting to think Sprint did something to block the app on the LTE network.

Just to check, I reset my phone to factory default and re-installed the app. Same results.

Anyone else having problems with this while on LTE?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] m4f1050:
I know the app says if you have issues to turn on (or off a certain feature -don't remember which one is it now)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] AToddSmith:
I contacted the developer Fabio, and he thinks I need to change some settings in the APN IPV4 protocol. Problem is, I can't seem to find where to change the settings on this phone. They should be in settings>connections>more networks>mobile networks, but the options are not on that screen. I'm really starting to regret getting this phone. I love the phone itself, but Sprint did a few things to "dumb down" the ROM that just plain piss me off. OK, I get they took out native tethering so they could sell that option. I don't like it, but at least it makes some kind of sense. They also took out the option in contacts to send a incoming call from a given contact straight to voicemail. That just makes no sense whatsoever. Also, I don't like there are no custom ROMs for this phone. If I could get this phone with a plain vanilla Android without all the Sprint mods, I'd be in heaven.

Anyway, does ANYONE have Wifi Tethering working on this phone (LPH-600) with Sprint and LTE?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] m4f1050:
Try APN Backup Restore, do a backup, gab the XML and open it with notepad or text wranger or any text editor to see if you find the setting that needs to be changed.

[Moto X Q&A] Deleted member 2351944:
I suspect sales of the Moto X are not quite as good as anticipated, which is a real shame since it's such an excellent phone.

Additionally, and most importantly, the two biggest carriers - AT&T and Verizon - have locked bootloaders for the subsidized versions, which comprise a vast majority of phone sales. Offering a dev edition isn't enough if you can't get that edition subsidized, since one of the major drivers of development is the popularity of a phone.

To boot, Motorola only recently changed their policy on unlocking bootloaders to not void the warranty, which may have driven some people to buy subsidized/locked versions rather than springing for the development edition. Aside from the development edition being ugly (IMO), it's hard to justify spending $500+ on something that has no warranty.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amsky145:
I'm trying to decide whether to get a Note 2 or a Note 3 (AT&T), and I am having issues finding answers to valuable questions that should help me decide.

First of all, I believe that my options will end up being:

Get a Note 2, be able to root and install custom ROMs to my heart's content. Basically unlimited possibilities here, at the cost of less performance.

Get a Note 3, possibly be able to root (this is important), not able to install custom ROMs ever or until a way around the locked bootloader is found.

Assuming I'm correct, my real questions are as follows:

What's the expectation with regards to being able to root an AT&T Galaxy Note 3 fresh out of the box? Basically, if I order a Note 3 from Amazon today, should I expect it to be unrootable? Should it more than likely be rootable as long as I don't OTA update? Does anyone have experience buying a Note 3 very recently, and has any info about what their out-of-the-box firmware was? Where did you buy it from, would I have better luck getting one from best buy?

Does anyone know the type of performance expectations I should have between the Note 2 (with whatever custom ROM suits your fancy) and a rooted Note 3 (preferably with all non-essential apps frozen, what I would expect to be a similar experience to a lean custom ROM on a note 2.)

I'd be interested in any performance comparisons, especially "how it feels" types of generalizations, because while I can look at anandtech articles all day and see how they stack up in benchmarks together, they don't take into account lean custom ROMs or rooting, and I'm looking for everyday use types of things. I want to be able to know that whatever random app or game I play won't be artificially limited in performance by having unnecessary background apps running, so rooting/freezing is important.

For example, I'm planning to get a smart dock and use a mouse and keyboard, hooked up to a 1080p monitor and run basically whatever I feel like running such as splashtop streamer, but have no idea what types of performance differences I could expect, not to mention how exactly hooking up to a monitor works with either phone. Does the note 2 output at a lower resolution than the note 3, therefore the note 3 would be outputting full 1080p? Can you output in whatever resolution/orientation you want?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] m4f1050:
I forgot to mention, I have my Note3 on Boost Mobile, no LTE, only CDMA. It still asks for SIM Card when I turn it on. Whoever has the hacked tether, do you have a SIM card on the phone? Your phone might be rooted and hacked, maybe it requires a SIM card for it to work. I guess I'll try ycats suggestion and get a SIM card, even if it's disconnected it will work? I want to bypass LTE completely from the Hotspot.

I just installed MI5 rooted/deodexed over MJ4 kernel/baseband, installed the MI5 hotsopt hack (or I get error when connecting 3G) and Wifi Tether Router still works. No need to pick Mode 4 hack does not apply to our phones, didn't make the error go away before I patched my phone with the MI5 patch. No SIM card - which was my issue. I'm tethering 3G only, I don't have LTE service. As long as you install the MI5 tether patch on MI5 system you can use this program if you don't have SIM card and tether 3G. I have Boost with shrinkage ($35/month unlimited talk/text/web)

Sooo.... 2 things to consider:

1. You need to have a patched Hotspot (for the error msg from Sprint)

2. If you don't have a SIM card and you want to tether 3G you need Wifi Tether Router and use Native Hotspot mode. You can then configure the Native Hotspot after you enable it with Wifit Tether Router.
