Bluetooth tethering will give you Internet access through your phone

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] highlordkram:
Not in the U.S. and definitely not on AT&T. Even the Null Rom does not give you any more than a Google Search option, and not real internet access.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] vanisleguy1976:
Perhaps not with U.S. or AT&T... But I certainly am able to have "real" internet access with Null here in Canada. I define real internet access as the ability to get online... Granted, it isn't the fastest internet on the planet, but it works!

Both my S4 and my Note 3 are running international ROMs with Bluetooth tethering built in. I'm having no problems with internet access on my Gear on either device.

Just flash the latest Null ROM, set up your Google account through Settings, download Titanium Backup through play, and restore a couple apps from a phone's backup.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Skyshatter:
I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 model SCH-I535 and I was having an issue with the charge port causing a desktop mode to pop up when plugged into my truck. This was effectively preventing the phone from charging because the screen would stay on. I read on a forum that perhaps the pin was bent down slightly closing a circuit that was only intended for certain after-market peripherals like a desktop dock. I noticed that it was in fact bent down, and I tried to gently bring it up, only to break the piece altogether. Now it won't charge or recognize any usb connections. I've begun externally charging batteries and swapping them in the morning and evening, but this is a real inconvenience, especially when I think it could just be replaced. I believe it's within my skills to solder the micro usb port, however I can't find a verifiable source for the part. I'm not under warranty, as I've already replaced the screen once. There's a part on this website called witrigs (unable to post url) that claims to be appropriate, but there isn't much information there. Can someone verify that this part would, in fact, work with my phone, or is there perhaps a better place to find parts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mirrin:
From what I have read the gs3 needs a hot air gun to desolder the plug not exceptionally difficult but does require the right tools and there is several things close to the plug that you need to worry about.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Skyshatter:
I think I'm capable of the replacement, but is there anything specific to the micro usb for this device that would prevent a more generic part from being used?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpeaches:
Hi,

I previously rooted my Kindle and things were just peachy until I tried to wipe it to give to my husband. I must have gotten the happy fingers because I deleted everything. After about 6 days of reading through the various threads and trying different things, it will only boot to the Kindle Fire logo screen and it will go from blue and white to the orange one, but it hangs there. The alternate boot option or reset boot mode does not have any other outcome. If I change it to "recovery mode" it will only open into the Cannibal Open Touch v2.1 Meanwhile, back on the computer the Device Manager seems to recognize the Kindle and the adb driver, but the system does not respond when I try to run any of the utilities that I've used; nor does the system respond to any of my commands I attempt. With the KFU it will reboot the Kindle to the logo and then hang at "waiting for device" or boot me back up to the COT Recovery.

I think I have tried every sequence or option with COT but I'm not real sure what the options are supposed to be doing and in what sequence. Below is an image of what I am now able to get on Recovery boot to COT. Can someone help? Is it too late? is it permanently bricked?

Thanks!!!
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androvista:
COTR is the best recovery out there, and as long as you even have the worst recovery that functions, your device is certainly not bricked.

It would be better if you put your enthusiasm to have the KFU fix your kindle aside.

Step 1) Download MoDaCo Rom/Any other ROM

BUT NOT ANY KITKAT ROM(COTR can NOT flash KitKat)

Step 2) Transfer your ROM while in recovery

Step 3) Do a preflash wipe

Step 4) Do a factory reset

Step 5) Go to 'Install -> Install from SD Card -> Folder where you put your ROM

Step 6) Click Install without Backup

Step 7) Boot Android

Thank you sooooooo MUCH!!!!

You made me proud of myself...

Everything worked like a charm with my Samsung S4 USB chord.

For the Install step I had to use the "Zip installation" option to see the file MoDaCo file I copied over. Once I did the fat lady was tuning up and in about 5 minutes she was delivering the most beautiful solo I had heard in quite sometime!!!!

MUCH APPRECIATED!!! :good::good::good:
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androvista:
Yes, by install I meant 'Zip Flashing'

I forgot the functions and didn't see the pic, its been about a month I used COT as to flash KitKat I had to switch to TWRP 2.6.3.1

Nice to see you got it working!

First of all, i want to say hello all the people who makes this pages possible.

I got a Xperia SL ( LT26ii)

i want to know if i install a stock firmware from xperia S, the processor will continue working to 1.7Ghz, or will decrease the frecuency to 1.5Ghz which is the frecuency of the xperia s ? ? ?

Thanks

Nothing much.. me too having Xperia SL but i'm on stock firmware of SXS.. Now i moved to Existenz Ultra 1.3.5 everything works well and for ur info the frequency wont change..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] yahyanael:
no i don't think there is any different because every rom i installed i designed for s and sl ,, they are very similar so i don't think there is any problem installing a xperia s rom but don't install the original software , u can try t install custom roms.

Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy Rugby GT-s5690M with android version 2.3.6. The baseband version is S5690MUGLD1 and the kernel version is 2.6.35.7.

I have tried rooting once before but it totally screwed up my phone because I think it was the wrong version. I had to get sasktel to fix it.

If anyone knows of a root for this phone with a good step by step tutorial for a noob it would be very appreciated.

I have just got a magician and are there any updates/firmwares that I need to download to cover up problems found?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brittany.18424:
I will try to keep this short but... it wont be. Please don't press that back button!

I had 4.4 on my VZ980 rooted device with a custom ROM but I felt like cleaning it up and starting over (phone was acting up a bit, nothing major) so I went ahead and unrooted it successfully back to factory stock. While unrooted I downloaded the new 12b update... just to check it out. After that lost my attention span within 2 seconds, I decided to flash back to 10b and root again. Everything went perfectly.

After rooting I immediately went and put TWRP on my phone (still stock rooted).. but it would not let me flash 2.6.3.4 only 2.6.3.2... which shouldn't have been a big deal but I.. brilliantly decided NO! I WANT 2.6.3.4... yadda yadda tried a couple different ways, then I read about flashify. Attempted to flashify the file and it still did not work. Within a couple of minutes my phone turned off.... no big deal I thought... WRONG!

My phone is stuck on the LG splash screen. It will not boot into recovery mode... it gets stuck on the factory hard reset saying "factory reset processing" no Teamwin logo ever comes up.. no matter how long I let it sit there

Next move was download mode obviously. But alas, that to bit the big one.. and before you ask I tried every possible button combination.. I was making up my own combinations in desperation. The only things I can bring up are factory hard reset and the hardware key control mode.

Heres the big problem. My phone is not recognized (tried on the factory reset screen and hardward key mode too)... not drivers, not ADB, not even the QHUSB_DLOAD that has been populating the scene lately. I tried downloading everything. Different flash tools, different drivers, different USB cords, different computers, I even tried to use a different OS to see if i could get a reaction.. Nothin! Tried LGNPST, QPST, you name it... I tried it! I even took apart the phone, took out the battery and put it back together (I did this with a previous phone stuck on splash screen and it actually made it work again) still sitting on that ugly splash screen.

Is there any thing I am missing.. that I could possibly try? If not... if it is truly bricked then I need help on how to make it so my provider will not see that it says "Rooted" in the top left corner when they try to put it in factory reset mode.

ANY QUESTIONS/SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOME! Thank you so much for reading my novela! :good:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datechnerd:
you know download mode is volume up + usb right?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brittany.18424:
I sure do! The phone is recognizing that its plugged into something but it doesn't seem to send any signal out. I have tried to get into DL mode hundreds of times over the past 2 days. The phone is responding to the USB but not sending anything to the computers is what it seems like.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datechnerd:

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brittany.18424:
Yep, I tried several different types.. latest update, the LG VZW united WHQL_2.11.1 (not sure of exact phrasing), Qualcomm, ADB wont recognize it either. I tried this on 2 different computers, both computers can easily recognize other phones/tablets/etc.

you did the combo with the phone off right?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brittany.18424:

Hello!

The stock Desire C with 600MHZ is too slow to run Carmageddon without stutters. I was interested in trying different kernels/roms at a higher frequency to see performance of this game.

But Carmeggedon doesn't work in various roms.

I have tried CM4.1.2 build 3 [Stable] by cuteprince and the revolution mod v3.3 by Russel.

The CM-based rom starts carmageddon, but I get a black screen after the intro video. I have found a forum post about this, and there it was told it can't work.

In Revolution I get the error: "Download failed because the resources could not be found"

What can I do to fix this error? Or what ROM should I try?

You should now try various ROMs by reading their description, i.e which one suits you...
