[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikma80:
I'm assuming that increasing the Flash Counter value and reseting it to default is not a bad thing, so here's simple instructions:

Make sure you have proper usb drivers installed for your samsung or ODIN won't find the phone!

Important! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2147852

Step 1, Download ODIN, CWM and the rooted 4.2.2 ROM + GAPPS you wish to install and copy them into your phone (phone memory or external SD)

Step 2, Shutdown your phone. Boot it into Download mode (press and hold VOLUME DOWN and HOME KEY, switch phone on and let go the two buttons when you see the warning)

Step 3, Use ODIN to flash custom recovery into your phone

Step 4, Reboot into the custom recovery (shutdown the phone completely, when it's off, press and hold VOLUME UP and HOME KEY, then switch the phone on. when recovery logo is on, you can let go off the two buttons)

Step 5, Use CWM to backup the current ROM and install the desired ROM. Remember to do a Factory Reset + DALVIK/CACHE format before rebooting!

Step 6, Install Triangle Away, http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22462960&postcount=1 and nuke away the pesky Flash Counter!

Happy times!

i have to wait for too long for booting after i root. what should i do?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikma80:
If that's the first boot after installing another rom, let it sit around for ~5minutes. If it takes longer than that, something is wrong. You are missing GUI (TouchWiz/Trebuchet) or you have flashed completely wrong rom.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jontr:
Ok, so I've upgraded to 4.3 and lost my root. As far as I know, to get root on 4.3 I will need unlocked bootloader to flash custom kernel and/or ROM. Unfortunately in the Service Info / Configuration of my phone it says: Bootloader unlock allowed: NO. So here's the question: is there any method of unlocking the bootloader other than official from Sony? Looking at the Xperia Z and ZL forums looks like there isn't, but maybe someone had succeeded on the Z1?

Thanks for any information.

I've never had a go, but would love a bit of North and South:

http://pocketinsanity.sourceforge.net/component/option,com_remository/Itemid,37/func,select/id,4/

Off topic - anyone ever thought: the commodore 64 could do simple text to speech. The BBC had it built in. SpyHunter on the BBC had sampled speech. And yet, notice how hard it is to get simple text to speech on a 500mhz phone? Flite is fat and still sounds like stephen hawkings after installing the Extended Rom dialer. Stoopid.

Kickstarts are the equivalent of OS Roms on Windows Mobile. You'll have to warez around for them, they're probably still copyright, but I'm sure if you check his forum somebody will have them hanging around.

Also check out abandonware sites. They occasionaly have them.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PROTOCHIP:
Dear timb551,

Here i uploaded the needed rom files and workbenchs for Amiga Emulator POCKETUAE... Amiga was a great machine and still the market owes lots of technology to Jay Miner " father of Amiga" or his Amiga... I am one of the lucky man who bought the first 50 Amiga 500 in Turkey...R.I.P. AMIGA... I will never forget the days i lived with you or your technology...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] JZEE:
Fully agree with the Protochip - people who never used the Amiga can never fully appreciate it....it was already multitasking stuff in 1987 or so when the PC (and others) were simplistic text boxes.

How I wish someone resurrected the Amiga - properly.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] vijay555:
Yeah, completey OT, but they've screwed up the new Amiga more then if they'd let the original die and be nicely remembered.

But I have to say, I think I had more fun on the Amiga then on any other system. I think I spent YEARS making the ultimate WorkBench disk, even throwing in the occasional rolling on the floor fit while PowerPacker unpacked my executables.

I remember laughing when I thought about mouse drivers on the PC being bigger then my whole Workbench disk... we've only gone up a factor of a thousand or so now to boot our OS :)

I still dearly love my A500. A600 was for girls, A1200 was a bad ass machine. I even still have an A1000. There's a name I haven't heard in a loong time... How cool was that - booting Dragon's Lair WITHOUT a kickstart to make maximum use of system memory. That's some hairy hacking... Happy days.

But yeah >wiping tear from eye< has anyone got a good Amiga emulator working? I'd love to have a blast on Defender of the Crown... (I highly recommend Slay on the PocketPC if you want a similar game)

I'm not sure but I think you mean either 'Kult' or 'Ween', both french and both very weird. OR you could mean 'Captive' which was sort of Dungeon Master like. If you are looking for a specific game, try googling for Godflesh FTP.

kasu: yeah. Follow the link I've posted. The game played perfectly on my SPV, so it'll certainly be cool on the PDAs. Haven't used it for a while. You might need the original game, I might still have my folders at home, but check out abandonware sites to grab it anyway.

It's a great looking game, but have to say it didn't keep me much beyond the curiosity value. I was never that good with platforms.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Anton.Valleyman:
I've just sat and read this thread with complete nostalgia...I had the 600 and 1200 and did eventually beef the 1200 into quite a powerful machine indeed.

My favourite game was Champ Manager 93/94. Neil Shipperley and Julian Joachim scoring 60+ goals a season. Conceding about 4 goals a year and a guy called Mark Cross: signed for £4.5m and worth about £25m (a HUGE amount then) by the time he was 25. Spent many a winter night playing that, those WERE the true gaming days. Silent Service II was simple but very addictive.

Still got my 1200 (and the 600, I think) and I refuse to throw it out. My friends and I at the time all had Amigas and we used to make fun of those who had PCs with their bloated OS's......I'm getting quite teary!! :lol:

To get back on topic though, I don't remember reading anything about an alternative to the sourceforge, which doesn't really work properly on the Exec. Anyone got any suggestions?

Cheers

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] ZeBoxx:
Another World / Out of this World (EU title) wasn't really the prequel to Flashback.

I think most people would remember Another World / Out of this World best for the intro - vector animated Ferrari (or somesuch) driving up to a complex with lightning in the background, guy taps in a code, gets scanned, etc. etc. Sits down behind a computer, taps in some values, fires up a particle accelerator, and has a coke. Lightning hits the complex, travels down the particle accelerator along with the particles, it hits the strike plate, and *zap* the guy is shot off to a different reality, appearing under water before being attacked by leaches, some black lion/buffalo hybrid, ending up in a swinging cell with an alien cellmate, before picking up one of the coolest guns in a game ever (shoot, shield, blast combo by holding down the trigger). Aahhh...memories.

There -was- a sequel to that, basically taking place after the dude takes off, but I think it was console only :/ "Heart of the Alien" for SEGA CD system.

Then there was the super-lame 3D version of Flashback, "Fade to black", which did have something -like- Another World's aliens/leaches, which was a pretty unplayable game once you got to a particular level where an alien entity blobs to the floor/ceiling so fast there's no way you can kill them before they kill you %)

Ahhh, memories... wish they would make more games like that again. That and "Countdown", "Rise of the dragon" etc. style games are so much more entertaining, albeit 'play once', than 3D shooter number 6,037.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] om.thelostone:
Hi

I am looking for a ROM for my I9500, either in Android Development or Original Android Development,

that looks closest in look and feel to either 4.3 or 4.4 (Kitkat) without any crappy UI or theme.

I hate Samsung's TW UI.

I am looking for a pure Nexus kind of ROM, with least Bugs.

Is any such ROM available on XDA in Development OR Original Development?

Which is the most stable version of CM roms, for 4.3 and 4.4?

Thanks

This is driving me insane. I search everywhere on google and every single hit is the same thing. It says "click here! this is how mobile card readers work! just plug into your audio output and poof magic happens!"

I KNOOWW!! you plug it in. no kidding.

what I want to know is HOW does this thing actually work... how do you input data through a headphone jack?

On Paypals site, it says a microphone enabled phone is required... OK... so does the reader read the card, and then send encrypted tones to the microphone to be decoded like dial up internet?

Then what is the headphone jack for, power? how does the card reader get juice?

Driving me crazy that I cannot find a single site that actually explains it. They all just explain how to use them... is this what our world is coming to? dont worry how it works just trust it?

this is what im talking about- https://www.paypal.com/webapps/mpp/credit-card-reader
[General Questions and Answers] h33x:
Hi! Don't worry, all is simple. Cardreader work as old tape recorder, you can find elementary scheme for it. Inside - tape head and some electronic components. And read smart card with magnet line standards.
[General Questions and Answers] ecparts:

[General Questions and Answers] Ryccardo:
Correct, like IrDA to audio adapters :)
[General Questions and Answers] Renate:
Yes, US standard magstripe credit cards are pretty primitive.

You only need to read a single track.

Microphones (in a PC or a cell phone) get a nominal 2.5V to power a FET preamp for an electret mic.

I'll bet the signal out of one of those card reader adapters is strong enough that they don't even need to use a preamp.

I think it's just a head in there very similar to what you would have found in a cassette player.

The next time you see a store card swiper, see if you can look inside at the right angle.

They are the same kind of head.

I used to use a 38.4 kHz IR receiver module (powered) run into a audio line input.

I could analyze IR remote signals.

The software is not that different.

The next junk day I'll look for a cassette player to savage and cobble up a card reader.
