Ok, thanks for clearing that app. So when browsing ROMS I just have to make sure I get a TW based one, or even within touchwiz is there specific ROMS for mf3?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
If you would have bothered to read the thread that was linked for you (that you claimed didn't help you) you would have seen a list of ROMs in the OP.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] failedjedi:
I see the list, does it say "these are the only working roms" - no.

It also says TW roms work, so do roms beyond those listed work. Or rather even if not confirmed "should" they work?

And lastly, the reason I made the original post in the first place, how current is that info. There is conflicting info all over the place, and so many posts like the one linked don't date updates and changes consistently.

If that was the definitive list 3 months ago, but more are widely accepted as working since then, I have no way of no way of knowing that.

There is no single post that has properly dated updated information all in one place. I appreciate there are people that have been doing this and keeping up with this stuff for a while now, but as a new s4 owner, this mf3 stuff is not only different, but all the proper info is spread out all over the place and not dated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
That is why you need to take time to learn and read. It sounds as if you are wanting someone else to do all of the research for you. If the information is spread out to you, than it is to others also. Search, read, and learn...that is the only way to get the information you need. I'm really not sure what else you are looking for? If you are looking for someone to tell you exactly what ROMs (out of every ROM available) will work 100% in your situation you are, that person doesn't exist. So like I asked, what is it you are looking for? Maybe if you clarify your request you can get more help, but remember, not that you will do this, but don't ask for anything that you should be able to do yourself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] failedjedi:
"It also says TW roms work, so do roms beyond those listed work. Or rather even if not confirmed "should" they work?"

That's what I'm looking for.

Can I in theory flash any TW ROM without risk of bricking, or am I actually limited to those confirmed. And follow up, how up to date is the confirmed list?

I can see all the information, I can do all the research, the problem is none of the information is dated, I read something about not overwriting stock rom slot, then I read something about doing it, and when nothing is dated for edits just the date of the original post shown, I don't know which piece of information is relevant and which piece to ignore.

If that list was dated and it was dated recently, I wouldn't have asked, I would have trusted it as an up to date list. But what if that list is 2 months old and there other roms now that are more relevant.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
This is probably the best answer you are going to get (though others might be able to help you). The thread states to only use 4.22 TW ROMs. That means, that in theory, any 4.22 TW based ROM should work. However, if the ROM isn't specifically listed in that thread, it is your own risk to try it. There is always risk. No one can guarantee anything even if it somehow worked for them them. So if you try a ROM that is not in the list, you are taking a risk. There is no other way to put it. If you want to know about a specific ROM not on the list, and it meets the requirements, you will need to search the ROMs development thread to see if it is mentioned as working with SafeStrap and if it hasn't been mentioned, then ask in that specific thread. The information in the SafeStrap thread's OP is generally current but it is also important to read the entire thread to see what has changed from early on. It doesn't matter what anyone else claims to be running or doing, if it says to do or not do something in the OP, then listen to it. It you choose to do something different than what the OP states, it is your risk. Good luck.

"It doesn't matter what anyone else claims to be running or doing, if it says to do or not do something in the OP, then listen to it."

This is my issue with the snarky comments here. You have been helpful, but all over there are snarky comments all with similar statements.

Make sure you read it, but don't trust what you read, make sure you spend 4 hours reading a 100+ page forum before you ask a simple question, I have seen simple yes/no questions answered with paragraph responses bashing OP for not reading.

Now in my case the 3 main posts that people should read to do this, if they were dated I would have been fine.

Again, not anyone here specifically for the most part, but XDA in general is full of this superiority attitude.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] scott14719:
It's not a "superiority" attitude as you put it, it is the RULES. You are expected to read as much as you need to to learn. If that means 1 day or 100 days, it's up to you. This is a development forum and not a "tutorial site. People are very helpful if you at least try to help yourself first. I told you, there is no "easy" answer for what you ask. You HAVE to try the ROMs for yourself if you want to risk it. Expecting someone else to do it so they can run back and give you the answer after they took the risk is a "superiority" attitude. I also told you,DO WHAT THE OP STATES! Anything else is your risk. Why is that hard to understand? Anything you try that is not stated in the OP is untried, unproven, and risky. It's that simple.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] failedjedi:
I asked for clarification on conflicting information.

It's not hard to understand do what OP says. It's the fact that in 2 sentences you said both to read EVERYTHING for information, then insist on only getting viable information from OP, which is it?

I tried to only follow OP but saw conflicting info so asked for clarification, then get told to read everything. Then get told don't trust what I read only follow what OP says. When there are 3 different "must read" posts, by 3 different authors and they are conflicting what the f*** is anyone supposed to do.

You are the one that makes seem like I'm asking to be guided through baby steps. I didn't. I asked if all TW roms should in theory work, a simple yes, or as you finally did say in theory they should, would have sufficed. Just a simple clarification, instead you are the one putting more work into the issue. That could have ended it right there, instead you keep posting more contradictory statements.

I read, I figured out all the steps I needed to take, some stuff was worded odd, or had conflicting info and I just wanted clarification on what was still relevant. God forbid someone have to say yes or no to a few questions to save others the time of reading hundreds of pages stuff that is out of date.

[Moto X Q&A] bliu:
I'll admit I'm not really sure about whether this is even necessary or not, but I was wondering if it'll 'break' anything if you (fastboot) flash the 4.4 boot and recovery images after rooting via SlapMyMoto and turning write protection off using MotoWpNoMo.

Will this 'break' anything to do so? I don't know why, but it just bothers me that we don't have the *full* 4.4 parts and pieces on if we've gone through the root/WP bypass procedures.

Also, IF this is ok, do we only need to update boot and recovery? Or are there more pieces to flash?

Thanks for any info!

i can get into recovery and re flash slim bean and it will be fine.

i would really like to have a touchwiz stock rom (im not a huge fan of Slim Bean)

any help or input would be much appreciated!

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Megapode:
Can someone please advise on the following?

MDA Exec - been running since November without many(if any problems).

Saturday morning tried to turn on the MDA, it turned itself off.

Originally thought that I had left battery to run down (only charge every couple of days or so). Fully recharged the MDA. Now whenever it tries to start up it asks me if I wish to do a safeboot.

It doesn't matter which mode I try and boot it in - it will never get past the Windows Mobile screen.

It sounds like I need to do a full reset - I would prefer not - as would have to re-install apps etc - but happy to do so if this means that I get the beast back and working.

Has anyone else seen anything else like this?

Is this a device problem - or something more serious? (I know you won't really be able to tell just from the question...)

Should I be looking at a replacement?

Any help will be very gratefully received.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gooroo:
I think you have answered the question as to what to do next already

> It sounds like I need to do a full reset - I would prefer not - as would have to re-install apps etc - but happy to do so if this means that I get the beast back and working.

Start worrying about it afterwards if it still isn't working.

WARNING: DANGER AHEAD!

Seriously, I want to investigate possibly a miracle un-brick fix for AT&T Note 3 users. If you are on MI9, there is help. For people like me, who chose "remind me later" to the OTA and it installs anyway, (there was no option to deny the update), there IS some mj5 odin floating around, which is hit or miss. Most people seem to report of FC's and such.

For reference, I have not rooted yet. I have rooted every android and jailbroke every iCrap I ever had, many, many times. I am upset there is no option for EFR in Kies 3, no stock Odin from sammobile even, and of course no help from AT&T. I have messaged mobiletechvideos.com about JTAG and have received no response yet either.

So, there is a

'load from external source'

option in stock recovery as mentioned by [MENTION=5540144]HookedOnDroids[/MENTION] here and here again.

I have responded to his post for the file(s) upload, and even PM'ed for more info. Neither were responded to. I had made a reference to SD CARD mode, which no one seemed interested in, for more info on that see this . Basically you pull stock files/binaries/bootloaders put them on a blank/empty 2GB+? ext sd card, and if the files are correct and probably the 'header' as well and it will write these to your device.

KEY POINTS HERE

:

This is untested and very dangerous. Even if you have some of the correct files, it may flash the entire ext sd card to your device regardless and you will be in trouble.

FOR THE BRAVE WHO ARE SOFT/HARD BRICKED: For anyone who may be on MJ5, and wants to give this a try, perhaps even take one for the team before sending it in anyway. I'm in the process of researching exactly what files are recommended. I think we will need someone with a fresh MJ5 rooted, preferably with no changes to /system/.

Additional Info: I believe there are also other options in recovery such as: load from /cache, which i believe is where the OTA .cfg file gets stored and applied after rebooting. There is also another option for 'apply update from sideload', this is interesting, although most people who are soft-bricked can't get a PC to recognize their device or access ADB, but it maybe be useful for flashing boot.img's etc., when and if that option ever becomes available for us N900A people

Please find Samsung .pdf document on flashing JTAG bootloader in THIS post.

Also I'm finding conflicting data, This post states sd card must be same as internal size to mimic partitions..

Also rule #1 after rooting samsung devices is to make 2-3 backups of you /EFS partition, in case you did not know.

For now, let's dicuss this further in this thread, and hopefully get somewhere. Thank You.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] chrisrotolo:
I do need to research more. I don't have as much time as I used to. I have read this thread, I'm actually the 2nd post, and even linked to it in the OP. I think this is something different. In your instructions you say to put the sdcard with stock files in your device, put battery and boot into download mode. Use stock Odin files to return back to stock. So do we actually use Odin 3 Loader or once booted into download mode, it can detect these stock files and begins the lash automatically?

So from the small amount of data we have I would infer that this 'load from external resource' option in recovery is similar if not the exact same. If you have a full ROM(as mentioned in Adam's thread or as HookedonDroids mentioned), on your extsd, it will be detected and automatically flashed.

This obviously works on MI9, no word on MJ5 or downgrading from MJ5 to MI9. Seems like it should work on MJ5, unless they removed this feature.

Thanks for the help.

Hello guys, i am on the last slim beam stable 4.3 rom 10/27/13 build.

The problem i am having is that i think i am suffering from data drops on the rom.

I noticed when trying to play my iheart and satellite radio. It would play and just stop.

I would see signal bars and the 4g symbol but no data. I thought it was my location so i restored my tweak rom backup and i had no problems with using either program. I like this rom so i am just wondering if it is something i could do to get past that issue.. Thanks in advance..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] EdKeys:
Check your APN settings and if they are incorrect or missing, add the correct info manually. If the slim beam rom is based on the 4.3 Samsung Touchwiz roms that have been released lately you need to flash the T889UVALJ1 modem for now until we get our update.

I've searched the internet and this forum, but could not find the answer, so please excuse my oversight if I have missed one. I'm planning to buy a T-mobile Galaxy Note 3 and was wondering whether it would be possible to get the $30/month (5GB data, 100 min. talk) plan with the Note 3? I'm asking because the T-mobile website seems to suggest that I would need a "prepaid" device in order to get this prepaid plan.

If yes, what would be the best way to purchase this option? Device from T-Mobile website, and simcard+plan from Walmart?

Also, is it possible to buy the Note 3 with the 24-month payment option instead of full pay with this prepaid plan (instead of regular plans)? Thank you all! :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] 1981resse:
I don't think a prepaid plan comes with the payment plan for 24 months
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] CalcProgrammer1:
You can certainly use the Note 3 on that plan. I am and it works great! That said, there's no financing available for any prepaid plans - financing comes with standard post-paid "pseudo-contract" plans. I paid $680 up front for my Note 3 on swappa, got it in 3 days, got my prepaid SIM switched out to a MicroSIM at the T-Mo store, popped it in the Note 3, and it came right up. I originally set up the prepaid plan on my AT&T Note 1 (SGH-I717) which I cancelled my AT&T contract on, unlocked, and took to the T-Mobile store to get a prepaid SIM for. They had no issues setting up the $30 plan on a new SIM for bring-your-own-device use.

Exactly and the unlimited text and 5gb of data makes it a better plan than the base post paid plan at $50.00 bucks.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] fastgeek:
Know I'm a newbie here; but can confirm that I jumped straight into the $30 "Walmart" plan with a brand new Note3 without issue. I too bought mine on Swappa. Ordered a couple activation kits from Walmart online (were actually a pain to find), picked them up later and activated my Note3 at home with no problem. I will say that at first TMo makes it seem like you need to give them another $30 straight off; but that's not the case. When you get to the point of the registration process in which they want a credit card / more money, ignore it and use your phone. Did the exact same process on my wifes Lumia.

My thanks to Mr. Ian B for mentioning the Skype plan. Think I heard about it before; but have since forgotten. My wife went over 100 minutes in no time flat. Not sure I want to go through the hoops of making Google Voice work on her WP8 device for the next six months before Google kills the 3rd party access... so chances are Skype it is! :)
