[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nexus24:
So I had my Galaxy S3 since it came out. A few months ago I noticed it shut off and wouldn't turn back on. (it would vibrate when the battery was inserted, goto samsung boot screen and never go anywhere from there) I noticed this site and a lot of others having the same problem so I began to trouble shoot.

I cleared my cache by getting into the boot screen and that seemed to fix my problem.

Now about 2-3 months later it started doing the same thing! This time clearing the cache did nothing, heck sometimes I can't even get a chance to clear the cache without it restarting on me again. Sometimes (if I'm lucky) i'll get it to boot up and it will go to home screen without a problem. Little to know it shuts off without warning and I'm stuck at the beginning.

This phone has never been rooted. Please help! I'm using a mytouch 4g now and this thing is slow as molasses! Do I have any chance to recover my s3 or is it sudden death syndrome?

Also I had alot of pictures/videos on the internal hard drive of this phone, is there anyway to retrieve those since my phone can't even boot up?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mentisimperium:
I am currently having the same exact issue. I suspect it is a faulty power switch. I will be replacing it, if it works i will update and let you know

I've heard of that too, I took apart my s3 and removed the power button as well as blew some compressed air through it. Still didnt work :( but yes keep me updated!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jxordan:
I ripped my power switch from the motherboard. To turn it on you plug it in and hold home and volume down to go to the odin screen. click volume down to reboot the phone. I am waiting for a new switch to come in the mail which I will attempt to solder onto the board.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nitroz:
Hi,

Bit of a stupid question, and I expect rooting would be the answer, but here goes:

When I first got my G2, and kept it stock. When taking a picture, the EXIF data would show it was taken with a LG-D802. After a couple of days I went to CM, decided I didn't like it, then went back to stock again. But now when I take a picture, the EXIF data doesn't show which device the picture was taken; just shows a '-' instead of 'LG-D802'. So, my question is: Where does the EXIF data get determined, and can I edit that file to change it? Or is there a trick to get it back to what is was?

I have no idea why this would bother me, but it's an OCD thing.

Thanks!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Radon05:
First of all, I want to thank the community for all the help I have received on XDA, already. I have been a member since 2009 and have flashed many different phones and roms. This is my first post only because the forum has been so helpful that I have not needed to post here before. Google and the search button have helped me alot :laugh:

My situation is probably different than most out there. I did the OTA update of 4.3 and broke my root and set of the Knox counter. I intially bricked my phone, but was able to get it back to 4.2 using the file from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2542036 While reading this thread I noticed this post about the "unbrick.tar" file that I loaded via Odin "Yes, flash that file in Odin, it will downgrade you to MC2 with the MK4bootloader"

Since then I have been on many different ROMs including the new KitKat rom and others. Each Rom has given me an issue with Data. Carbon and the stock roms having working 3g and no LTE, while other roms dont have any data at all. (Note: I always wipe my device like recommended)

I recently wiped my device and loaded this rom. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2541395 3g is working great, but once again no 4g.

Troubleshooting:

I have tried removing knox manually by these instructions. I do not see any of these files on my device.http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2540781

I have also tried to flash the 4.1 MC2 stock rom via Odin, but this fails because Knox is still on my device.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jocarog:
Follow the instructions from here and you should be good, it means another wipe but after that you should get 4g without the knox:

I appreciate the quick response. However if you read my OP, I am currently on this ROM. Everything is working except LTE. I still have KNOX, but i cannot find any files when I follow the removal instructions located here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2540781 Those instructions are linked on the link you gave me.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Radon05:
At this point I am not sure which instructions pertain to me. I have tried this, but I am not finding any KNOX files

Coming From OTA 4.3 with knox

1. You need to get rooted so download and use THIS which does it without fail (trust me lol i used it like 30 times now for you guys)

2. Download an explorer file that can gain root access, i use and paid for Root Explorer been using it for years from the Play Store

3. Remove the knox files thru out the whole system which are named HERE

4. Ok now its time to flash a recovery thru ODIN, not a rom a Recovery.... which ever one the rom from #5 says on the thread.

5. Now install this ROM and make sure you go to his instructions to flash NO ONE ELSE, he made the zip he knows what to do

6. Fully boot and you can even setup your info IJS its gonna stay regardless

7. Now flash the CWM recovery attached. This one has flashed my zip without fail for me. (yea its old but come on, You really wanna be the only one without the 4.3 lol just flash thru Odin)

8. Finally boot into recovery and flash my 4.3 Update Linked Below. When it finish and ask you to stop the recovery update pick NO NO NO NO if you stop it you have to root it yourself. If you followed these directions no ones in the thread You should be fine.

If you have a custom recovery go and flash this:

NO LTE yet, but KNOX is gone. I am now using ODIN to go back to a MC2 Stock Restore. It seems to be getting passed the point where KNOX was blocking it before. I will keep you posted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Radon05:
Well, I screwed myself even worse. I cant even get 3g anymore. I get 2g data which is almost useless. I have tried flashing the stock MC2 ROM and re flashing the one posted here.

The mhl that came with my Samsung Infuse worked with CM rom, the micro USB to supply power to adaptor and HDMI had to be hooked up in a certain order for it to work. I don't remember which needs to be first. Also not certain it will work with a broken display, and I am wondering how you will get input to phone. Does the screen still register touches?

Can you please tell me if your stock video player can read bluray hd movies and ac3 codec audio ?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] madsquabbles:
bs and mx player work for me. you'll need to dl a custom codec for mx player though. archos works with the free codec, but its performance has been crappy after the last few updates so i've quit using it. it's got the best UI though.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] fantasmanegro:
i dont know what you mean by bluray hd movies but, stock player does not support AC3 codec...

mx player works very well and it does not require other codecs to download... dice player is very good too...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Geordie Affy:
Had same issue with MOBO player when I wanted to play a Bluray copy, so I downloaded Dice and BSPlayer - MOBO player decided it would play the file but not audio (Need codec), Dice didn't want to play the file at all while BSPlayer was the only one that decided to work flawlessly.

So i recommend BSPlayer but all three (If you can be bothered to mess about with codecs) are very good video players.

sadly, if you grab a 2012 gn 10.1 you'll have ac3 in the stock player. they chose not to license it int this version.

Hi, I rooted my HTC first (same rooting process), and I tried to flash Cyanogenmod 10.2 Nightly. Then when i booted into recovery and then did reboot system now, my device just goes into an endless boot loop. Any ideas?
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] Nick281051:
Maybe because this is the HTC One section...
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] crlowryjr:
Boot loops aren't uncommon....

Simply get back into recovery and reflash. If you get boot loops again, you may have a bad download (but I would think that recovery would barf on the install). You might try a different ROM as well... My Xoom for instance would never install the EOS ROM but had no problems with CM.

Hi!

Could someone point me to info how can I use SD card as real Secure storage of data?

What I need to do - to use it under Win Mobile platform?

is Any 3-rd part software available?

thanks for any information.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Doormat:
I guess it depends on how you define secure?

If you mean 'nobody else can access the data if they get a hold of the card' ... there are many articles on the web discussing this issue - here's a decent (but slightly dated) one: http://www.windowsecurity.com/articles/Securing-Pocket-PC.html

There are a LOT of app's which will provide you with varying levels of encryption for your data - Resco Explorer has an option to encrypt, for example.

Use google (or your preferred search engine) to search for "pocket pc" and "security" (or perhaps "encryption") and you'll get plenty of hits.

I must point out though that we are talking about an extremely portable device. A PDA is just so easy to steal! An SD card is even more so. So if you are talking about data which really MUST remain secure ... you may well be better served by not putting it on your unit in the first place.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ryhor:
Hi

Actually we wanna do a simple thing.

we wanna put our application and data on SD card and allow access to this storage only to someone who have right to do it. (it isn't top secret :))

SD category 3 of levels of SDMI security requirements will be fine for us.

http://www.sandisk.com/Oem/DocumentInfo.aspx?DocumentID=1344

But as I understand - there is some problem with it. It is a little bit strange - because every normal SD card has to provide this feature (and it is), but just there is no any suuport of it from OS? even there is no some 3-rd part File System Drivers?

It isn't sounds so hard to implement.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BeyondtheTech:
Why do I feel like we got gipped again?

I believe SD is a scam over MMC cards just like 1.44MB 3.5" floppy disks was a scam over the 720KB version... :x

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Yes you can flash any ROM. Your firmware is pretty old so you'll need to update it to whatever each ROM requires.

If other things require updating, please can you provide the link on how to?

Thanks
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
No, not just the hboot. The hboot is only one component of the firmware. You need to run the 3.18 RUU, this will set you up for all aosp ROMs. If you want to flash a Sense 5 Android 4.2.2 ROM you'll also need to flash the 2.15 firmware. I don't have a link for that but there are a couple of threads you can find it in if you search.

[HTC One V] 123386761:
Now that I have S-OFF on my HTC One V (primoc), I don't know what to do. I heard that you can flash a kernel from the phone, but how do I do that? Can it be done while the phone is in normal operation? Or can I do anything else interesting with S-OFF? I want to disable the radio for service, since I only use my H1V like an iPod.

Thanks,

~123386761
[HTC One V] MameTozhio:
most ROMs flash the kernel in recovery.

The radio can't be disabled but you can disable RIL somehow (Some build.prop thing?)
[HTC One V] rzarectha:
I think it would be interesting to learn how to change CID, if someone is able to write a tutorial on this.

We still need an eng hboot for primoU

We already have the recovery flashable kernels. thanks to MameTozhio

To be honest i don't know of much else that we could have with S-OFF, It's quite funny we wanted this so much and now that we have it we are confused and don't know what to do next (some of us ofc, not all :P).

By the way, is this S-OFF a step forward having a Sense 4.1.2 (sense 5) kernel or 4.4 (aosp/cm) kernel ? or they got no connection to eachother at all ?
[HTC One V] MameTozhio:
fastboot oem writecid 11111111

And S-OFF won't be able to help with any kernel thing, unfortunately =/
[HTC One V] 123386761:
Well that was fast. I'm afraid of what that does though. Can you go into depth as to what variable that changes and what the 11111111 is for? Is that a generic code for NO CARRIER or something?

Thanks,

123386761
[HTC One V] rzarectha:
I think I seen that cid somewhere, while reading some articles. If I recall correctly, it's some sort of super cid ? If so, you should be able to use any ruu ?
[HTC One V] MameTozhio:
Yes, SuperCID allows for any RUU.
[HTC One V] parkourz:
It helps with kernel things a lot, cause now we can change e.g. recovery partition with boot partition and boot p. with recovery p... recovery p. is bigger, so there's possibility to flash bigger kernels than 2,9something MB
[HTC One V] bratusm:
Same for Primou (GSM?)

Dangers? :confused:
[HTC One V] MameTozhio:
SuperCID is only useful on GSM because GSM is an international device.

It's not dangerous, that I know of. I'm using it right now.
[HTC One V] russellvone:
S-OFF is a great tool that will help and allow moderate users to dig deeper and start doing a little development themselves

Instead of just relying on our awesome devs here to do all the work

So a message to all that has s-offed

Dig dig dig and look around XDA and Google find the awesome things that are now possible for you to achieve, if you look hard enough, you'll find lots.

So don't waste time just checking others threads for updates, use that time to try new things with your awesome new S-OFF fully capable of practically anything device.

If you do look, I'm positive you'll find something.

And even if it is not specifically for your device, you can always see how it's done then turn around and apply it in safe manner.

Good luck guys!

I wish you all the best and as one of my good friends here at XDA says

I'm holding on to stock CID and he is rocking superCID. We both own the BOOST variant of the OnsSV and are expecting the sense 5 update. Our device is CDMA, so in terms of flashing any firmware that GSM have is a no go, unless your a scripting fool like Modding.MyMind and fix the updater-script first, but we are testing for the good of the community to see if superCID allows 'faster' update. Like receiving it first, we will post results when they get here.

Place it on the root(not in a folder) of your microSD card and boot the device into bootloader(the screen that automatically searches for this)

i very much appreciate you finding this fix and posting it.

i had this exact problem with a Nexus 5 of mine this weekend. what i did to fix it was get on sprint's online chat and had them fully disable sprint voicemail. i use GV so i don't care if sprint provide's VM or not. after they disable VM, i went in and did a force stop / clear data on the phone/voice messaging app. this clears the notification. rebooted phone and as of 24 hours now, the notification has not returned.

[Nexus 5 General] bhake:
Just thought I'd throw this out there. I cleared the reoccurring icon by disabling "voicemail display" in Google voice app settings. The app is really outdated (long time GV user here) and IMO, I think it's a compatibility issue with the app. Once you uncheck "voicemail display" option, you won't see voicemails in your call log, but you can still see, read, and get a GV notification of your voicemail through the GV app.
