hit thanks button if i help u. :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wyche7:
Hey try this -

1.download latest flashtools which is a program that you would be using as long a you want to flash custom rom from here: http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/

2. Now in the Flashtools folder (C:\Flashtool\firmwares by default) go to the folder named drivers and you would see "flashtool-drivers" and install them (installed them all just in-case you decide to get another Xperia phone in the future.

3. On your phone go to setting>applacations>unknown sources and usb debugging in development and connect your phone to your computer with your data cable and then open flashtools.

4. root would now become available in flashtools so press it(the black unlocked lock ICON) and just wait for flashtools to reboot your phone. and you now have root access!

Installing a Recovery

In order to install a new Rom you would have to install a Recovery, according to the rom you want to install the thread would state whether you need a ClockWorkMod(CWM)(CWM5 in flashtools) or just flash through Xrecovery(0.3 in flashtools)

So in order to install a Recovery your phone must be connected to the USB port on your computer. So in flashtools click on the black square with a white cross in it and choose according.( setting>applacations>unknown sources and usb debugging in development much be on.

How to use Xrecovery.

To get into xrecovery you much power off your device, then press the power button until it vibrates, no when you see the sonyericsson logo start pressing the back button on your phone and then you would enter Xrecovery(in the version of flashtools this tutorial is based you must wait until you see the notification LED turns ) now in xrecovery you use the volume up, down, home and back buttons to navigate.

Bootloader Unlocking.

5.unplug your phone and power it off. On the top bar in flashtools plugins should now be available with the "Unlocked bootloader" option, so press it and wait until it says to connect your phone then do so by holding down your back button(on your phone) and plugging in your USB cable(don't let go until you see your notifications light come on GREEN

6. While the unlocking is taking place look out for the "you can now unplug and turn on device, then plug it again" unplug it and press the power button until vibrate and then Immediately plug it back in. Do it that one time and just leave it to finish and say "successfully applied unlock. Rebooting

7. Smile because you can now flash custom kernels and so forth and so on and also press thanks button.

If your stuck just send me a message.

Quick tip:flashing new roms usually means loosing your data(contacts, apps, etc) but you can use this to backup your data and when you're done re-download it and restore your data: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....go.backup.pro

I am buyer from China。But I find my new nook glowlight can't display eBooks in Chinese，although the fonts are embedded in the eBook files.

But "Your NOOK can display eBooks in other languages if the fonts are embedded in the eBook files. Languge support in other parts of the NOOK, for example in the Library, is variable. ", quote from the "User Guild Nook Glowlight".

so, can you help me solve this problem, or just give an example that it can display a book with Chinese。

Thanks a lot.
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
It may not like that particular book.

You should run ADB and logcat and see what it says when it tries to load the book.

Many here have changed system fonts to make the Nook support Arabic, Vietnamese, Burmese, etc.
[Nook Touch General] jwxuan:
Thank you very much，can you give me the link for the new glowlight

Thank you very much，but my nook is new glowlight，not st with glowlight. It still can't be root, how to change system fonts?
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Well, it could be some small detail about the book that the Nook doesn't like the embedding of the font.

Until we get ADB & logcat going on somebody's Nook we won't be able to see what it doesn't like.

If we can see what the problem is we might be able to fine-tune the specific book.

If we get ADB & root working on your Nook then we can add fonts.
[Nook Touch General] usenothing:
hi, I am the "New Nook GlowLight" user from China too.

I also have the same problem.

Now, I copied some pdfs (Chinese books) files instead of epubs to NOOK ,in a way ,to solve the problems.
[Nook Touch General] jwxuan:
epub display much better than pdf

you konw ，there are so many epub books that are arranged with utmost care，but pdf look terrible ！
[HTC Droid DNA] WellTrainedVC:
Without going into specifics and a long story... I need a system.img for the HTC Droid DNA v. 2.06 firmware. If you have a full nandroid that has the signatures along with the data.img, recovery.img and system.img that would be sweet, and I will be forever thankful.

So I don't come under fire here - I received this phone from a fellow member that was sold the phone by a fellow member, and that member did not tell the person that I received it from ANY details! I only say this as it is kind of messed up to not have full disclosure when selling any phone to anybody else. Chances are that if you are selling a phone for well below retail, the truth at that point in time would not hurt you. Plus it is easier to know what step you are in ruining the file system of a phone so that backtracking is made easier.

Keeping my fingers crossed that somebody is willing to give up some files, pretty please. If not, I will happily learn how to unpack, create and repack my own *.img files.

Thank you all for your help. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Just flash the ROM?
[HTC Droid DNA] WellTrainedVC:
If I were in a position to just flash a ROM, it would be far different. This phone has some serious issues. The biggest issue is that the entire system was wiped. I've already flashed the stock ROM via the released RUU. However, this has had no real effect. I believe I'm going to take everything back to stock and see what this gives me. Couldn't hurt at this point in time. If anybody is interested in reviewing a logcat or two for me, I'd be grateful. My eyes are very tired. And no matter how many times I take a step away from the problem, there is always something that I know I must be missing.

Thank you for your help.

***UPDATED 2013.12.06_10.14***

I ask that anybody please help me with my system errors I am getting. The biggest issue I have is that the phone crashes about 4 minutes after booting initially. Then the backgrounds disappear and the phone boot loops. I believed that getting somebody to forward me a Nandroid with the system.img file would allow me to correct the file system errors that I am getting. However, there is obviously something wrong beyond that. Thanks for your help. LOGCAT attached.

I'm looking for CWM Recovery for a Straight Talk SG3 SCH-S968C. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
I too am looking for this. As far as I've read, it's the Verizon variant, NOT Sprint. I tried to flash the Sprint recovery on it, and it ****ed up my system, causing reboots every few minutes. I got it replaced, but haven't had the balls to try to flash a Verizon recovery.

---------- Post added at 02:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 PM ----------

Well, I took the plunge, and, using this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mmmeff.ez&hl=en , installed a CWM Recovery on my Straight Talk S3. I'm currently running a full backup of my clean system, and I'll let you know how well it works once it boots up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Good news! Everything works with the recovery, flashed CarbonROM, and it's perfect. This is the Verizon variant, so just install a Verizon recovery, and a Verizon Galaxy S3 ROM, and everything should work! Some ROMS may bug you about a SIM card, but you don't use one, so just dismiss the warning, and all should be well!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cspiresucks:
Have you had any problems? Does everything work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cspiresucks:
This is the reply I got
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
I've flashed a few roms, Carbon, Cyanogen, it all works. Technically, it IS on Verizon, so the other guy is half right. I'm currently running Cyanogenmod 10.2, which is Android 4.3, and it all works. The camera, mobile data, wifi, EVERYTHING. I have total confidence that it will run any Verizon made rom.

Hi Guys,

I'm in need of someone to dump a file for me from their SCH-S968S. This file will be used to add support for JTAG repair on your model. In exchange, I will make a donation to you for your efforts of $20. Please let me know if you are interested by shooting me a PM. Here is a video of the process we will be adding for your model!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnA8Djs55Ds
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Unfortunately, I'm no longer stock, however, after I installed a Verizon recovery, I immediately ran a full backup from it. Would that have the file you need in it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] connexion2005:
As long as you have not changed your bootloaders then you will still be a good candidate for the test.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Glad to have helped!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Did you just flash the Verizon ROM, no other variant? If so, that's awesome, and I'll try it. I was able to put CWM on my ST phone using the Verizon version, so that's a positive. Any help on this would be GREATLY appreciated. I went to ST from a GNex on Verizon, so I miss my fresh updating of Android!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Absolutely. I flashed a few ROMs, Carbon, and a few Cyanogenmod versions, settled with Cyanogenmod 10.2. I assume any Verison variant ROM would work, but don't hold me on that! I mostly just stick with CM and CM based ROMs, since I like CM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Cool. I was planning on going with CM as well, so that's relieving. I guess what's the worst that can happen, I made a CWM backup, so I'll be safe with that. Thanks for the tips!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Just to follow up, running CM 11 (4.4.2), and it's working flawlessly. Data, voice, all that fun stuff. Big thanks again for being brave before me and letting me know CM works! Hopefully this thread will help someone else out like it did for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Hmm, one issue I've run into. Are your mms messages going through? I can't get mine working. I think it's an apn issue, but I for the life of me can't figure it out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Are you sure you flashed the correct ROM? It has to be Verizon. But then again, it could just be a bug. Does CM 11 even have a stable build out?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
I got it right from CM's site. Are you running 10.2? If that works for you, I'll just throw it on here and go from there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Yeah. It isn't Kit Kat, but I like it. Everything works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] :
Just installed 10.2, and it works fine. One thing I noticed with CM11, the APN settings were greyed out on CM11, but not CM 10.2, so I couldn't edit those to get it working. Guess I'll wait until something other than a nightly is out for the GS3. Thanks again!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
I have them backed up. I haven't tried restoring with root toolbox pro tho. I'll give that a shot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] derrek22:
Battery life on the latest nightlies is kinda bad. Would flashing a custom kernel help? What one do you guys recommend for cm11? I've never flashed a kernel before.

Flash Help

OK. I've worked up the nerve (after hard bricking once) to install CM 11 d2vzn. I have always used TWRP on my tablet to flash but my phone is using CWM 6.0.4.3 (heard there was issue using TWRP). What are the proper steps to ROM. I assume the following:

1. Place ROM & GAPPS on SDcard.

2. Wipe data / factory reset

3. Wipe cache partition

4. Wipe dalvik cache from advanced menu

5. From mounts & storage menu format system? Not sure on this one.

5. Install ROM zip from SDcard

6. Not sure if you need to wipe any caches here

7. Install GAPPS from SDcard

8. Again, not sure if you need to wipe any caches here. I always do here on the tablet

9. Reboot system

It goes without saying I already have a nandroid backup image.zip, an APN setting backup, a TB backup of apps and a KIEVs backup of contacts. Thanks for any help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Sounds perfect. This is what I do. Even the cache wipes. I always wipe the cache/dalvik after, and then run fix permissions just to be safe. I've ALWAYS used TWRP, and never had a problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mookie2014:
What TWRP version are you using?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Eh... 2.6.something.something, but i actually just used a TWRP app to update to the latest, which was 2.7.0.0
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] evertking:
Hmmm.. I have had nothing but problems when I tried to flash TWRP. How did you go about doing it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
I rooted, then downloaded a TWRP manager app from the store, then used that to flash it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] derrek22:
So I tried changing my boot animation and it's gone now and it fails to install the new animation. I tried using the animation tool in rom toolbox and I tried the ones from rom manager. How can I at least restore my cm11 one?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Just flash your CM zip again. Don't have to wipe anything.

Thank you.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Mookie2014:
Hey Seth,

What's the latest cm11 nightly (d2lte unified) you have run without any issues? Also, have you tried the snapshot release? Think it was around 5-4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
They all seem to work for me. I'm running the latest, dated for the 11th. I haven't tried running a snapshot, though I'm assuming it would work as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
Do you have MMS working on the latest nightly?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Yes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] matt_man:
Just installed the latest CM hightly and everything seems to work great except MMS in the stock messaging app but it works fine in hangouts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
Ah, yes, I use Go SMS Pro, so yeah. I do remember it not working in the stock app...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kenny1974:
I had it working with handcent, but I prefer the stock messaging app
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] derrek22:
Has anyone had problems with the search bar? It will not work for me. It could be because I use cyandelta to update but I'm not sure.

Edit: I just realized this is an app from the market. It must be an update. I thought it was built into the launcher.

Has anyone run a benchmark test of the stock ROM against cm11?

sch-s968c

I'm a bit green at this... I followed all of your posts for installing flashing a recovery and installing a custom mod for straight talk Verizon variant sch-s968c and seem to be having some trouble with the CWM recovery I installed following the link you provided in your post. The recovery flashed without an issue, but when I try to install a .zip from sd I get an error; E: Can't Mount SD Card. There are similar errors for the factory reset, cache wipe, and dalvik cache wipe. After reading a forum post from a guy who had a similar issue, I reformatted my sd card to fat 32 hoping that would give me a resolution and it failed to.

I'm dyin' to know how you did it and made it all work. There must be something I'm either missing or doing wrong. Do you have any suggestions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gcrack97:
Once you root with cydia impactor you have to install the superuser app from the market (the one by clockworkmod). Then download ROM manager (also by clockworkmod) and search for the "Samsung galaxy S3 Verizon" custom recovery. After you have done so download your ROM and gapps (Google apps) and put them in your SD card. Then reboot into recovery and do a back up of the native ROM. Then clear all datas instructed in previous posts. Then flash your new ROM in recovery.

I have only tried the clockworkmod (cwm) recovery and I will recommend this because it has worked for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jumanjii2:
sch-s968c

After I rooted with impactor several days ago I Installed supersu...should I uninstall that before I install superuser by clockwork mod?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gcrack97:
Who is the developer that you got super user from? If I were you I would uninstall your current super user and install the one made by clockworkmod.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jumanjii2:

Which version of CWM recovery are you running? I tried 6.0.1.2 and that threw the same error codes. Still can't read info from my sd...internal or external from Recovery. From ROM manager unable to see external sd.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gcrack97:
I'm using 6.0.4.5 (the Verizon variant) also when you are gonna flash something read the texts from the options because they are tricky usually the first option is not your SD card is the internal one instead, dumb but true.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gcrack97:
I tried all I can but the only thing that works is Textra from the market.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sethfoxen:
So far the only thing that works is using a 3rd party texting app from the market. I use Go SMS Pro, but any of them seem to work, Handcent, TextPlus, etc.

I just disabled the stock texting app, because if you don't, you still get the "No APN" toast message, even though it works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jumanjii2:
cm11 d2lte mms

Running cm11 d2lte will using one of those texting apps also restore mms?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gcrack97:
I don't know what you mean by "restore" but you will be able to send and receive MMS by using a 3rd party texting app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jumanjii2:
That's what I needed to know...I was referring to a restored ability...should have been more specific.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] gcrack97:
The thing is that for some reason those 3rd party apps a can access the APN settings from the phone. I contacted straight talk to see if they could give me apns our phones use but they say they were automatic and no one can view them. What I am thinking is that if someone who knows enough about android, they can extract them and we can input them manually.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Jumanjii2:
I tried that in the wee hours of this morning. I'm no expert by any means, but I searched for the Verizon Wireless/Straight Talk data APNs and entered them under add APN. Once I hit save all the information I entered disappeared and nothing at all changed.
