[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] nurduu:
Hi everybody, my brother gave a gift i9305 from UK, I'm living in Turkey and I dont want to pay any taxes to the goverment, and i want to copy my old phone's imei to the i9305 ( If citizens bought device out of Turkey, we have to pay taxes for IMEI register and have to proof with my passport)

I have I9305 EVR. I did NV Backup from EFS pro and software did it successfuly but when i tried to connect the phone again via qualcomm tools ı get error, "SPC was rejected by the phone". (SPC 000000)

Is it possible to delete/change SPC code by EFSpro after NV backup :rolleyes:

On the otherhand when i untick "sent spc", Efspro can connect and read from phone ( gives "Error SPC not found" but when i click ok software continue reading) out of ESN and MEID.

ESN and MEID is null, but IMEI is correct.

Is it possible to fix or learn SPC code. I installed supersu busybox,,I9305 Cwm Recovery, Stock kernel and Stock rom

Also i tried other softwares such as VDS, QPST, CMDA workshop even UNICMDA and MLS,,,not working, not working...

Do you have any opinion for this situation? Today will be my forth sleepless night.

By the way i restored from NVbackups but problem not solved,I'm wondering Is it possible to restore backups correctly while SPC code not working ?

Is it possible to change SPC code by manufacturer / dealer from internet, there is no sim inside phone but Wi-fi connection available and i used google play from this phone.

Thank you for your answers, solutions.

Hello guys, while trying to change partition layout of our nexus 4, i ended up finding how to get android 4.2 beta on your device;

1st Post - Tutorial(about the rom will be 2nd post)

TUTORIAL(about the rom & ss, 2nd post)

1st: Download these files:

https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/occam-jdq39-factory-345dc199.tgz (Factory Image of 4.2.2)

https://mega.co.nz/#!BA9HXAyJ!O2YFME-Wm_l6KXynWOxCYGztwuBq6u9fV4caMWtc5ls (Nexus 4 TOT file, dont worry we will not flash this on LGPST)

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2387139&d=1384231255 (LG Firmware Extractor, to extract the .tot)

Fastboot and Adb already configured will be needed(i will not explain how to do this).

2nd: Install Factory Image

-just extract the .zip, and run flash-all.sh(or .bat if you using windows)

3rd:Extract the .TOT

-first, extract BinExtractor zip into the same folder as the .tot

-go to the location where bin extractor and the LGE960 .tot is(it must be the same)(ps: i use c:\ to be more easy to use the files).

-rename the .tot to a.bin

-open cmd as admin and type BinExtractor -extract a.bin

-it will say a warning about not finding magical number, just type "y"(without quotes) and press enter.

-then it will crash(if not skip), to fix the crash, right click BinExtractor.exe,go to compability and use Windows XP SP3

- if has crashed do again the command BinExtractor -extract a.bin, type y and press enter again.

-now you will see another warning, type y again and press enter, and wait until it finishes

4th:Installing the new System

- turn off your phone, and turn on as fastboot mode(vol down and power)

-open cmd where the fastboot folder is located and type fastboot erase system and press enter

- on that cmd, after it finishes type fastboot flash system <path\to\17-System.img\that\will\be\in\the\same\folder\as\a.bin>

- when it finishes, you just need to reboot and wait untill it finishes loading :eek:

Thanks(no order)

[Nexus 4 General] opssemnik:
Well Lets GO:

LockScreen(NO LOCKSCREEN WIDGETS,and clock in right instead of middle, also no lock ring):

HomeScreen(nothing different for me, comes with aosp browser on home screen, but also comes with chrome, u will se later)

AppDrawer:(it comes with chrome also, and some weird app called LocMgrFT 1.4)

Camera(No Photosphere LOL):

Weird App(LocMgrFT 1.4):

Google Now as Just Google Search(yeah, no google now really):

About The Phone(System Updates dosent work, it dont find any)

Dev Options(Some Options That i didnt saw on official 4.2.2, like simulate second display and bug report):

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The rom is stable, sometimes launcher crashes but its rare.

It uses less 20mb of ram the normal 4.2 & 4.2.2

some buttons are slightly changed from official 4.2
[Nexus 4 General] opssemnik:
on about the phone you see that the kernel is from 2013 but that is because we are using 4.2.2 one(remember, after factory reset we only flashes system.img not boot.img)
[Nexus 4 General] Maurice5813:
whats the point? We have stable 4.2 (which is old) and we are on 4.4.
[Nexus 4 General] opssemnik:
its not to use as daily driver, but its cool, to see how 4.2 was before release. and any aplication(except for benchmark) uses any of the api additions of 4.3 or 4.4 so yeah.

also 4.4 system ui is laggy.
[Nexus 4 General] Maurice5813:
nah 4.4 is all stable
[Nexus 4 General] opssemnik:
nah², you need to use art and break alot of apps to make it fast as 4.3.

now stop being off topic or i report.
[Nexus 4 General] Crisisx1:
Thanks.. But pointless. 4.4.2 is as solid as a rock.
[Nexus 4 General] opssemnik:
where did i say this is to be used as daily driver? this is just curiosity, if was to be used for testing and release i would put on android development section.

:eek:
[Nexus 4 General] reqmon:
pointless
[Nexus 4 General] jayRokk:
What year are we in??????

I thought we were flashing 4.4???
[Nexus 4 General] THEBANDIT420:
Well I think it's pretty neat to be able to use a beta just to see what it's was like
[Nexus 4 General] howard bamber:
Noobs don't get what you are doing. It's not to flash. It's a legacy of 4.2 as a work in progress. What's so hard to understand? Thanks for posting :P

Sent by reversed alian technology.
[Nexus 4 General] opssemnik:
thx for response of the guy who understood the propose of this tutorial.

for the rest of ppl. troll fail detected. if was to be used as daily material i would had put on android dev section.

gg.

Android 4.2 beta

Back to school.....really?
[Nexus 4 General] hp420:
Thanks for sharing! I love having stuff like this to play with when I'm bored and I feel like tinkering. It's also something I love having in my factory image collection. I still have factory roms from all my past devices because I never know when I'll feel like playing around with one some time.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omniwolf:
I have managed to stay on the old bootloader, and have tried about 4 ROMs now with full wipes (data + system) before flashing, and have freezing and crashing issues with all of them. I have tried:

- Omega (x2)

- Foxhound

- Echoe

- Goldeneye

They all work fine for the most part, but on average once a day either the phone will reboot on me, or things will start to get crashy (whether it's the framework (eg I start having trouble pulling down the notification bar), or an app will freeze). If I reboot things work well again for a while, but within the next 24-48 hours something will go wrong again.

Having tried so many ROMs, all with full wipes I'm starting to wonder if it's because I'm still on the old bootloader.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue? I never had it with the 4.2.2 ROMs.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Repulsa:
Try to Update your recovery mate. Ex. Philz or twrp. Old bootloader rocks so keep it that way. Have a nice day.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omniwolf:
thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't help. I was on a 2 month old version of PhilZ, i upgraded to the latest, and then a few hours later the screen wouldn't turn on, had to force a reboot by holding down the power button.

hello,

I have a strange bug.

I put my phone on mute, but when I receive text message i still hear the sound.

It's like if the text message were on the same sound as the "Alarms"... because on my sound setting all sound are off except the alarms...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nreuge:
I haven't noticed such an issue.

Btw, it should be better to post such a request in the ExperimenT 3.5 thread.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] pyoox:
I'd love to psot there but I am unable to because I am new to forum.

I have this issue with twitter too, even if all my sound(except alarms) are off, i still receive a sound notification for twitter.. text mesage.. and few other things..

strange
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] casis86:
Cant remember if its on experiment too but on cm there is a setting which let apps use there own notification or the one from your mobile. Try to find it on turn it on
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] pyoox:
After 20min of searching, I must conclude there is no such setting on my Xperia T lol

Thanks though for trying!

I have a kindle fire that wont go into recovery. It will boot into my custom ROM.

when i installed a new rom (infamous v1.1) to my galaxy tab 3 7.0 t210r, my bootscreen didn`t show up, i only hear the ringtone so is it a part of the rom to increase performance or not? if not what to do?

p.s it didn`t show either when i installed the deleterious 7.0 and rocket lite v2

thx for viewing
[General Questions and Answers] Ripshock:

where are you guys?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Master Thief-117:
I find it hard to believe that this is a completely irreversible process. There MUST be a way to reset this counter, especially since it's entirely possible for there to be false positives. I can imagine sometime in the future an official update will be released that has a chance of blowing the fuse, even if applied correctly through Kies or OTA. How would they resolve that issue?

I figure that Samsung must have a way of resetting these false positives whether it's through replacing a specific chip or through flashing firmware. It really wouldn't make sense for them economically to not have a way of doing it. What would the alternative be? Trash it and make a new one? Samsung would be sued by their shareholders if this was the case.

Logic would dictate it would be more cost effective for it to be a firmware setting, possibly encrypted and extremely low level with some form of obfuscation so they can release fixes for accidental trips without having to send a recall notice.

As a side note, does anyone else feel violated by Samsung because of Knox? The fact they literally boobytrapped their devices with Knox to flag unlocked bootloaders under the guise of "enterprise security" is absolutely disgusting and pathetic. They should have released versions without Knox for the general consumers.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] alom5:
You can use the phone perfectly wok and without knox. Knox is a separate thing to just using the phone. It's a secure container holding secure information for people who want to user it.

Knox is something that most people will not use
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Master Thief-117:
I understand most people won't use the feature, but the fact remains that there are some that will for whatever reason and if the fuse is triggered for reasons that they didn't cause, they are SOL.

The other side is warrenty. It's stated if knox is triggered, they won't honor the warranty, even if it's unrooted.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Skander1998:
There is no way to trip knox unless you run a custom recovery / kernel.

Other attempts like vroot or kingoapp and whatnot are blocked and knox is not triggered.

All Samsung firmwares are recognised by knox as stock and no there won't be a firmware that will trigger it, they're not that stupid to do it.

So yeah It's an effective solution to protect the information inside the knox container from potential attacks, you root the device by gaining unauthorised root privileges and the container get's completely disabled with all of it's data.

And the Samsung Knox website does mention a fuse.

https://www.samsungknox.com/en/blog/about-cf-auto-root

"Once the e-fuse bit is burned, a Samsung KNOX-enabled device can no longer create a KNOX Container, or access the data previously stored in an existing KNOX Container. "
[Galaxy Note 3 General] danieljamie:
I am 90% sure that someone on XDA tripped knox with a stock firmware. On phone so can't search well.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] antt00:
I remember that there was one case on S4 in the very initial stages of knox implementation. Never heard of this scenario any more after that and never saw any for note 3.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] alom5:
Actually, my knox was tripped flashing stock firmware - trying to go back from MJ? Firmware to MI7.... It wouldn't flash cos it won't allow you to go back so I tried the many different method suggested like deleting the modem file within the stock firmware etc.... and then suddenly knox was 0x1.

It sorted me out cos then I didn't have to carry on pussyfooting around and just do what I was supposed to. .. Flash and customise my phone the way I wanted to. So all good in the end. ?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] antt00:
Downgrading bootloader will trip knox. It is not allowed as you are going from a secured bootloader back to one with a loophole. Normal users will never encounter this as you cannot downgrade rom with the official kies.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Skander1998:
as antt said, downgrading to a vulnerable firmware is also not allowed, and knox will trip if you flash it after a new secure update.

You can of course customise everything you want and do whatever, but just don't expect to have Knox anymore, and don't expect warranty.

In reality even before knox everyone knew that every root method warned about losing your warranty immediately, but people cheated and reset counters.

Now you are agreeing to the same disclaimers and you just have to live with it.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] ShadowLea:
If you ever had to protect data that badly, KNOX makes perfect sense.

Sometimes people have sensitive data on their phones (we're not talking about pictures of your ****.) that needs a killswitch. If someone steals your phone, roots it, they can access the data. With KNOX, they can't. For some of us, that's relevant. (No, I'm not getting a blackberry.)

No, I don't feel 'violated by samsung'. Ever had a look at a game console, TV, fridge or any other electronic device? Hell, a car even has the principle of 'mess with the engine and we won't pay for the damage you do.'

Everything has a sticker on the side: "If this sticker is broken, warranty is void". EXACT SAME THING. Nobody complained about that for the last 25 years. This is really nothing new. Welcome to reality.

KNOX can probably be reset as Samsung can do it (We've seen it), but once the switch is triggered, the data is gone.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jonboyuk:
I feel violated! I've spent £500 on a device that by the fact it's Android, is supposed to be customisable - that's sort of the mantra of Android, isn't it?

The fact that I can only disable a few of the Samsung bloatware apps annoys the hell out of me.

If I buy a PC, I can uninstall whatever I wish, so why can't I do that on my phone? Because Samsung don't allow it as they are in the system area of the device. I wouldn't need to root in the first place if I was allowed to choose which software I want to use.

Not all of us want to screw around with the frequencies of their processor, graphics, ram etc.

KNOX is nothing more than a convenient excuse by way of 'security' for Samsung to kill two birds with one stone.

It will be hacked eventually...what is made by a human can be reversed by another, mark my words ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] xclub_101:
You can still customize whatever you want - except selected cases (AT&T and Verizon? - where we know it is an explicit request of the carrier) the bootloader configuration will still let you install a custom recovery and custom kernel and custom ROM. And that is still very, very rare among all the non-Nexus and non-developer-edition phones in the world. That is also pretty unheard of in phones outside the Android ecosystem.

Don't get me wrong, the Knox stuff is still pissing me off a little - but on the other hand given the large amount of Samsung phones that I have seen bricked by morons I can't say that I do not understand how Samsung would like to separate things a little.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] alom5:
Knox is not a big deal. You can still do what you want with the phone and make the appearance and performance to suit the individual. Warranty. .... Either the phone goes wrong in the early days or it stays the long haul. ..I still have 2 galaxy s and an s2 and note 1 all working and rooted and running custom rom and kennels and no problems at all.

Worst case scenario. ..I have insurance. ..
[Galaxy Note 3 General] vgergo:
I have a Note 3 with a funny screen (bent under the glass, hard to explain) but i am afraid to take it back under warranty, because the replacement unit will surely come with rom version mj7 or higher which reportedly has half the battery life of my current mj1, plus it's not possible to root without tripping knox.

Now, if downgrade was allowed, it would be a totally different case, I would not hesitate to claim warranty on this hardware problem.

I can live with the funny looking screen (only noticeable when the screen is turned off), I decided I will wait with the warranty claim until knox reset, or downgrade without knox tripping becomes possible, or a new firmware with at least as good battery life as mj1 comes out...

Battery life is extremely important to me, and I just love to be able to keep all features of the phone enabled (voice wake, quick glance, all location based google now features, location history, lte, nfc, etc etc) and still get over 5-6 hours of screen on time and a full 16-17 hour stand by.

It is so perfect now I am afraid to risk it, not being able to downgrade legally really limits my willingness to ever upgrade
[Galaxy Note 3 General] grud1e:
i don't feel violated or cheated nor am i pissed at samsung.....they are not stopping you doing what you want with the phone what they are doing is telling you that if you mess with it then the secure area is fubar .....they are not saying the phone is only the secure area .........and with earlier phones the warning was the same root and your warranty is gone.......

....as for the warranty in the eu we are covered as samsung has to prove that rooting the phone has caused the hardware to fail a blanket your warranty is void won't work....eg my phone is knox 0x1 and the home button falls out .....that is not caused by rooting it is a fault and will be covered by the warranty no matter the state of knox

i am happy with the note 3 ...sure there are people complaining of this and that but that will always be the case my phone does what i want it to do when i want it to so i have no problems
[Galaxy Note 3 General] !crazy:
That kind of data protection is achieved with encryption. Good reliable security solutions are open sourced, no need to use some black box, providing Samsung and their partners access to your data.

So to repeat, encrypt phone with stock android encryption, and it is ok. No it is not 100% secure, but nothing is, neither knox.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] j_hansen:
I doubt that is the case, I just got note 3 a few days ago and it's mj7 and I'm getting savage battery life even though it has only been through3 charge cycles, over 18 hours of standby and 4 1/2 hours of on-screen time and I still had 40% on the battery
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ikutoisahobo:
I want to sideload more than the 2 or 3 apps that the free Dev account thing does. Is there a different way to do this? I don't care if it's a complicated way.

Basically I want to unlock my phone for good, no limitations on the amount of XAPs I can sideload.

I've looked all around and can't find any info.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thals1992:
Depends if you can Interop-Unlock your device. If its not a Samsung, then no. The reason there isn't any info around is because the free dev unlock is relatively new, while Dreamspark has been out for a few years. Purchasing an account allows up to 10 apps at a time.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
The removal of the app limit is the core of the interop-unlock, actually. Still working on finding a way to bring it to other phones...
