From Samsung and the carriers...I doubt it. If they get galaxy gear sales up for the holidays then the goal has been met. As far as I am concerned I will get the update (AOSP)...all thanks to the excellent devs here.

Most likely not thanks to the stupid carriers out there! In the meantime imma enjoy the work of these fine devs that deserve a couple of beers for their hard work.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] n_alvarez2007:
I'm a tad more optimistic than my fellow S3 owners. Yes, it may be a long time before we see a 4.4 rollout but I don't think Samsung nor AT&T are stupid enough to not give their best selling smartphone at least one more update. More than likely we'll see the next iteration of Android out on Nexus and GE devices but that's how it was when 4.3 was released and we were all stuck on 4.1.1. My guess is anywhere from 6-12 months until we see a Touchwiz 4.4.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] gfinockio:
We'll get 4.4 about 6 months after Google released 4.5...

Cyanogenmod worked perfectly on my SGH-I747 for several months, but then lost capabilities one by one. First my data stopped working for any function despite showing a good connection, but wifi still worked. Then, my gps stopped working intermittently, but was often fixed after updates.

Recently, there has been a notification to "Sign info network: AT&T". While it is always there, attempting to use the GPS definitely causes it if I've removed it. When I select it, my browser is directed to plain google.com, and the bottom prompts me to login, sometimes mentioning GPS. In the past, clicking sign in would instantly restart the device. In the last few weeks, attempting to sign in simply refreshes the page (edit: since I've started writing, when google loads my phone instantly crashes as before). I can't access the play store ("No Connection"), or install apps from my computer. However, already installed apps like chrome still work fine with wifi.

Also, my MMS doesn't work either direction. I've tried clean reinstalls. I've been using CM 10.2.0-RC1. Thanks for any assistance!

I flashed a new recovery twrp 2.6.3.3 to flash android revolution rom... I am new to this recovery so I made an error of deleting formatting the internal storage and in turn the android rev zip I wanted to flash.. so now im stuck in recovery with no rom to flash..and no backup to flash or restore.

I can access fastboot and I tried doing fastboot flash zip rom.zip said remote not allowed:failed...

this twrp wont mount the phone on my pc so I can drop the zip on the phone and flash it.

removable storage shows on my pc but it says please insert removable storage when I click it

I also went to mount on twrp and put the x throu system cache and data.. and tried without the x.. usb-otg is non selectable..but I don't even know what that is.. either way I still cant get access on my computer to drop the zip..

so is there any quick way I can get a darn zip transferred to my phone so I can flash it throu twrp.?

any help would be great

thanks
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ca12bon:
I think you just need an OTG cable... download and copy ROM of your choice, copy it to a USB drive, then mount the USB drive to your phone using OTG cable (available in most electronics stores for something like $2)

Once the USB is mounted, go into recovery, click install, and at the top there should be a menu that lets you choose between internal sdcard and OTG. Click OTG, and you'll be able to choose the ROM to install on the USB drive.

There's a way to "push" the files to your phone when it's hooked up through USB cable to the PC, but that's a bit more complicated. You can google or search on the forums (how to push files to HTC ONE)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthewstice:
Ya I googled..pushed zip over fastboot as I heard adb won't work..or is that wrong? just dont know if i did it right.. fastboot flash zip yourrom.zip..I'll give that other option a try but I guess I need a USB drive..and a cord.

Thanks

Go to recovery and adb push rom,zip /data/media
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenstre:
No, that's not right for flashing a custom ROM. That would be for flashing a ROM from HTC. They're both distributed as .zip, but are different formats. [MENTION=3525160]SaHiLzZ[/MENTION] got the right answer, but I'll explain it a little further:

- Install/configure ADB (you probably already did this if you can run fastboot).

- Boot the phone to recovery

- I would run two commands just for a little added safety:

adb shell mkdir /data/media
adb shell mkdir /data/media/0

Then the key command:

adb push name-of-ROM.zip /data/media/0/

Make sure the ROM is in the present shell directory on your computer, or type the full path to the ROM. The transfer takes a few minutes. The procedure is identical on Linux/OSX/Windows. :)

Now the ROM is on your phone, and you can install in TWRP.

Just got the phone. I have it set up to where I only see the contacts on my phone like normal....but text messages so everyone I've ever emailed with my gmail. I don't know how to turn this off. suggestions?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] Tron_Of_Borg:
Ok...I love my Brodit car holder. Easy to insert the XDA into and remove.

I'd love to have one on my belt but I wouldn't want the top exposed. So, here is what I've come up with.

In the left picture, the black is the existing Brodit mount that I have. The blue is my concept. On top is the pivot point for a belt clip and on the bottom is left open to make pulling the XDA out easy. As shown in the right pic, it runs from top to bottom so you can get your finger all the way underneath and pull upward.

I see the advantages as being a hard case, I don't have to work with the XDA with a case cover on it, the keyboard isn't covered when I use the XDA, and I don't have to worry about pulling a soft case cover off just to insert the XDA into my car holder.

Perhaps a flap is needed to cover the top from rain. But, you get the idea.

Further suggestions?

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] donmedo:
hey guys simply Iam still using Android 4.1.2 Would you advice upgrading to 4. 2.2 ?? the other question is why I didn't get the OTA update ?? by the way my tablet model number iS GT-n 5100

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] donmedo:
Was the question that hard???
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] intelliriffer:
No But the answer is! ;)

I'll try to keep it short as we already have a thread on what all noticeable has changed etc.

1: Upgrade or Not as of now is more of a subjective thing. What I may find might better/worse might be completely opposite for you, as a lot of minor things have changed. Given that most will succumb to some form of an update and have to accept what is made available to them at the time, it seems like updating should be perhaps a good enough consideration, however, check your region and firmware on sammobile.

I would advise against updating unless applicable firmware version for your region ends with MI1/MI2 or above (MJ1,MJ2..,MK1, ..) (I/J/K denote build months, in this case being september/october/november resp). There are noted issues across different region with older 4.2.2 firmwares. Mainly S-pen and Magnetic cover issues (alarm) which again may or may not be of any consequence to you.

Q2:. Why didn't you get an OTA? :

2.1: Is your Device factory Stock?.

2.2: Might have to do with that samsung has not released updates for your device region yet and perhaps also look into settings if auto OTA Updates are enabled.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] zdratcen:
I have updated my Note 8 today manually because it has not been available neither via OTA nor via KIES - a quick check on SAMMOBILE shows no 4.2.2 version published for my region. Therefore I decided to push manually the latest 4.2.2 XX version (XX in the name of the ROM means that it is for Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom).

Note that it is the third 4.2.2 XX release which I hope is good enough. Samsung has released 4.2.2 versions for a few other regions too dealing with the reported problems. I am not aware of any strict schedule region by region - it means that you may wait quite long for your regional version. Therefore I replaced my XE version (Bulgaria, Estonia, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Russia, Ukraine) with the available XX one.

The update went smoothly even on my encrypted Note 8 and at first glance everything is running fine, every setup and data is preserved. The first thing I noticed was the "flatter" color palette as most of the contemporary changes in the colors. I do not see change in the performance, neither the sound quality for example...

There are some minor improvements in the 4.2.2 user interface which I was missing in 4.1.2 and they were the second driver for the upgrade. The main was the sheer curiosity :) .

So, it is really up to you whether you will go for your manual update ;)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] diesburg:
I have a srpint s3 I moved over to straight talk. If the "nv only" setting gets switched on accident or something it reads the sim and replaces my straight talk programmng with old sprint programming from the sim. Is it possible with dfs or any software to edit the embedded sims programming? Xhange it to my ST programming if possible. I suppose writing all zeros wouldn't do much good cuz when nv only got switched I'd just get all 0s for programming. Or even better does anyone know yet where this embedded sim is, if its removable and if the phone will still function as a cdma/evdo phone without it.

Hey guys, got (what I believe is) a similar issue.

the error message I'm getting when I try to flash the update (or sideload it) is "EMMC:/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot:(and a huge string of characters ending with the end quote that follows)" has unexpected contents.

I've flashed back to stock krt16m, bootloader is still unlocked with cwm recovery, and I still get this error. The only modifications I had made were flashing the bricked-kernel hammerhead and enabling doubletap to wake, also installed xposed framework with gravitybox and advanced power options.

I flashed the uninstall file for bricked-kernel hammerhead (which was a boot.img so assuming it was this and not xposed?) but I'm still unable to flash the update to 4.4.1

suggestions? is there a way to flash a new boot.img? I'm a relative beginner.. I'm unable to track down a link that has a stock boot.img, I'm not sure if this is part of the factory image but I'm assuming not if I'm still having this issue..

thank you for any input!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Synyster06Gates:
Is Bricked the only kernel you've used? Or did you try Franco as well? Francos modifies a few files that need to be fixed before you can flash the update - even if you flashed a stock boot.img.

Guys,

Please help me out here. I rooted my Nex5 because I could not stand the DPI (icons/text were ridiculously big)

Because an app I use a lot cannot function on a rooted phone, I unrooted my phone.

I guess this means the following: my bootloader is NOT stock (because I see the 'unlock' icon), I am NOT rooted and my OS is stock.
