[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
yeah you'll be fine, I messed mine up 1St time from so other guides, sprint tech fixed it...half hour later rooted and started this guide :cyclops:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Roni P.:
Thanks for this. Just successfully rooted with not a problem
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] WoodenDiamond71:
Glad it worked successfully don't forget to thank the OP
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Roni P.:
Is something wrong with my phone? It force closes everytime I try to hold the screen to think him. It also does it on other actions and has been happening since reinstall
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] WoodenDiamond71:
Try reinstalling the ROM again and make sure to do a wipe data/factory reset also DO NOT FORGET TO WIPE DALVIK CACHE that is important when installing custom ROMs
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Roni P.:
Im running stock. Its been like this since b4 root. I can tey reinstalling the app tho
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] WoodenDiamond71:
Oh maybe you have to perform a factory reset/ data wipe. Are you rooted? With philz recovery installed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Roni P.:
Yea i rooted right b4 posting here. But thats all I did. Whats a good backup I can use if I have to data wipe?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] WoodenDiamond71:
The backup within the recovery or titanium. I would choose titanium backup and make a copy on the SD card as well just in case the internal one is deleted . You can always move the external one back
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
glad you're rooted and running...it's only doing the force close with the app for this site? I use my browser for this, not the app but if it's just this app force closing, try like my boy woodendiamond said or even try going to your settings>apps and then clearing this apps data and cache, then try again...then if still happening, uninstall it, do like WD said, reboot and reinstall it.

let's us know what's up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DuceTheTruth:
Why do my e signature verifications keep failing?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
more info please...what file is it happening with?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Keyz450:
just updated to 4.3 OTA n rooted successfully today, thank u kindly OP, my only question is, the stock 4.3 mk3 rom thats in development, is that the same rom thats on my phone now? or do i need to flash it for some goodies?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
no problem...you're on a stock rom if you just rooted it. the rom that's in development is the last listed rom, cm11...I'm running it myself and it's solid for me but i always mod my roms, removing a ton of their files to my likings.

I'd say try it, backup your current rom 1St just in case you're not liking it. there's a YouTube tutorial as well to help out if needed, have fun messing around lol don't worry either, back your current rom, you're golden. I still constantly do that trying new things to my roms lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rdcrds:
Well i got a refurb gs 3 today and i wanted to root it on 4.3 which it is on. I downloaded the stuff put it on the root directory of my phone and powered it off like i am supposed to do.

But my phone will NOT go into download mode.

I hold down the 3 buttons like i am supposed to do then as i let go to press the up to continue it goes back into charging mode. It does not stay on long enough for me to hit the continue. Nor does it reboot.

Now the phone will turn on if i try and boot it up. I did put it in debugging mode and followed the method by the book. But why can't i get into download mode? I have not activated the device yet but i have wifi on and i have not put a SD card in it i put the files i needed in the root of the phone.

I have all the stuff but why will not go into mode? its frustrating lol

---------- Post added at 06:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:29 AM ----------

EDIT NM it was the down button it was sticky had to let go fast
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DuceTheTruth:
Thanks for replying back goku....

Im not a total noob(I've rooted 2 phones previously) but Im not a super expert either. This S3 that I have is from one of those stores that flash phones. But I do know that when I received it, it had 4.3 on it.

I think my problem is when I go into recovery mode and install the 2 zip files.....both of the e:signatures fail but it still proceded.

Am I supposed to wipe everything first or what.....I feel like im skipping something somewhere.

Will it hurt my phone if I keep doing this process over and over and over again?

edit: I'm about to try again...just to note though...

while in d/l mode it says:

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: YES (1 COUNTS)

CURRENT BINARY: Custom

SYSTEM STATUS: Custom

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE

Warranty Bit: 0

BOOTLOADER RP SWREV: 1

EDIT: 2

Ok cool, I flashed the recovery

but once I installed the supersu.zip, rebooted....the app is nowhere to be found in app list

I d'l the chainfire version from the playstore and that failed to gain root access

Quick question...I know it doesnt say it your instruction but I see this in some other places, am I supposed to be wiping the cache and dalvik cache and factory data reset when flashing the recovery?.....because I did not do that...I was just going as the instructions stated....I'm not tryin to brick this thing.

Edit 3....ROOTED!!!!!!!!!!

THANK U SIR VERY MUCH
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
just saw all your edits, my bad...as long as it's good now

edit...just updated the supersu zip file, forgot to do it the other day, so sorry about it not showing up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Irosupman:
Cant see Supsersu

Hi

I have followed all the steps provided but once I restart my phone I cant find the SuperSu app on my phone. Could anyone please help me?

Thank you

I also have a warrenty bit: 1

Is that something to be worried about?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
go to the playstore and download it if it's not showing up, don't worry about the warranty, we're not gonna damage it ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DuceTheTruth:
Thanks once again my dude!

Im now rooted and running CM 10.2.

1 Question though, how do I flash the original rom? Do I flash the back-up I did?...is that even a zip file?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
no problem...yeah just choose restore from sdcard1 and it'll find it itself
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Irosupman:
Works

Thanks a lot man it worked ! another question, I was trying to flash CM mod 10.2.1 and after I flash it, it gets stucked in the boot screen. Do you know why it is doing that? Sorry I am a rookie at these stuff.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
did you factory wipe it and all that first? if so, just try it again from the beginning and see if it goes all the way through...no apologies, ask whatever whenever lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] imdaman99:
Hey Goku, thanks for helping me root this. I want to install SlimKat 4.4.2 on this badboy and in the instructions they recommend installing the latest CWM or TWRP for this. Will philz_touch work on this rom or do you recommend I do put TWRP on it via GooManager? Thanks for the help and keep up the great work :)

Edit: I tried it with philz touch, and it works :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
saw you got it but just a heads up and for others, philz is the latest twrp ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] luvmypurps:
When I try to install a rom it gives me all these errors and status 7 or.something like that. I am rooted with philz on 4.3 on boost mobile. The android guy falls over in his side as well. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
is it the latest philz recovery? assuming you didn't root it with this guide, am I correct? and lastly, are you attempting the roms in this guide?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Users on Virgin Mobile and Boost have to modify Sprint ROM's before they will flash properly. Procedure for rooting is the same however. Here is a link to a video I made showing what you need to do in order to get custom (AOSP, not TW) Sprint ROM's working on Virgin or Boost. Even though I made the video for my fellow VM users, it is the exact same thing for the Boost side.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
thanks bro
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott183:
So unfortunately I'm not having the good luck others are having. I noticed the first issue (I think) when I ran ODIN and installed the philz-touch file. It went through the pda process and then it rebooted the phone during the install (don't know if this is normal). Ended up installing it 3 times, I believe its installed correctly now. I had already installed the zip files which do show on my sd card. Once I finally figured the proper timing to release the power button to get into the recovery menu, (says Android System recovery in RED at top) I noticed I do not have an option to "install a zip file". I chose the apply update from external storage which showed me the knox removal and su update files I had previously copied onto the card. Both gave me signature verification errors in red when installing them. I don't know where I'm going wrong here, but any help is really appreciated. Thanks in advance

EDIT After reading around I believe the signature verification problem is coming from the pda recovery file not installing correctly. Again, any help is appreciated
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
that's definitely not normal, rebooting the phone during the file transfer process (pda)...is the recovery menu you're seeing red in color? sounds like it never took to me, few questions:

this is the right model s3 you're using right? just asking

you're on 4.3 right now?

you didn't skip any steps in "prepping your phone", usb debugging and all that?

in odin, you only checked the "reset" box, not the auto reboot option at all?

samsung drivers are up to date and also what computer operating system are you running all this on?

how about your usb cord, are you using the 1 that came with your phone and not the same cord type but from another phone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Definitely sounds like the reboot box needs to be unchecked in Odin, as that is the stock recovery that he is booting into, not Philz.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
yeah that's what I'm thinking until i read it over a couple times, he can correct me when/if he sees our posts but when i read it again what he said, sounds to me like it's rebooting the phone during the file transfer...let's see what he says when he posts back
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
For sure. I believe that if the reboot box is checked, it reboots very soon into the process of trying to push Philz onto the phone, like just a few seconds in. It should take about two minutes with the reboot box unchecked.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott183:
So I finally got the custom recovery file in (apparently I don't have patience) it took around a minute or 2 for the file to go in. I was then able to get the proper recovery menu and was able to install the knox file and superuser. My final problem is that there is no place in superuser showing the binary files. I did check in the playstore and it is up to date at this time. What can I do now? Thanks

---------- Post added at 03:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:19 PM ----------

That was exactly the problem the 2nd and 3rd time I tried to install philz. 1st time was lack of patience, 2 and 3 was not realizing that the box rechecks itself when restarting the program.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
So did you open the SuperSU app once you were back in your current operating system? That is when it should prompt you about disabling Knox and updating binaries if necessary.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott183:
I opened SU after reboot and got no prompt. Just 3 taps (Apps, Logs, and Settings). Apps and Logs empty, found nothing concerning binary files under settings. Last user review on play store shows that user could not get binary files either.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Try running an app that requires root, such as Titanium Backup, or download and run Root Checker from the Play Store, then post back with whether TB was allowed to run or if root access was denied, or if Root Checker indicated root status.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Scott183:
Installed root checker, got the SU prompt to grant or deny, root checker verifies root. So now my only fear is an OTA update with superuser not seeming to be working correctly. Please tell me if I'm wrong here, and what else I can do to make sure this phone stays rooted
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
odds are you're fine but do as my bog Mr. struck said to test it...lately as I've been keeping supersu up to date on here, 1St times apparently have the su binary up to date when installing the. zip, but when it updates on the playstore and you update your supersu app, yes the binary needs the update. I'm not the Creator lol but hit us back on your status
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] goku2778:
awesome! you're good dude, 4.3 is brand new so don't worry about any ota updates for a while ;)

try 7zip or winrar to extract
[HTC One S] blacksantron:
Went nuclear and am installing Ubuntu as we speak... But as soon as it's done I'm going back to try this... I simply used whatever decompressor is in win explorer, even though I have both 7zip and winrar..... (Forehead smack) :silly:

[HTC One S] blacksantron:
i truly appreciate you taking the time to do that for me.. truly!

however, since going to dualboot linux ive solved all those problems... have new ones now though

No radio, no firmware it seems... have a rom that boots but no way to connect..

Achieved S-OFF trying to fix it but no... nothing works... should i be using a sense rom?

thanks again!
[HTC One S] dd98:
you shouldnt need a sense rom, why dont you download amd fix.zip in ubuntu, extract it and move the files to your windows partition and then try to fix your usb then try running an ruu

try to fix adb on linux try this

1. Open terminal

2. type this: sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules and hit enter

3. considering your phone is htc type in the following on the text editor window: SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="0bb4", MODE="0666", GROUP="plugdev"

4. save the file and restart your computer

or if this didnt work try this: http://androidonlinux.wordpress.com/2013/05/12/setting-up-adb-on-linux/
[HTC One S] wellsheit:
Morning gents,

Got my ONE yesterday and obviously trying to unlock when I hit this roadblock. I tried the intel fix above earlier this morning and last night. I was able to get the intel drivers to take, but lost all of my usb ports in the process and had to roll back. As soon as I accept the first intel driver for the eXtensible controller, all peripherals are dead. Am I missing the obvious here??

I've spent more time trying to get my old pc (with Win 7) up and going than trying to fight 8.1 into submission. Naturally the HDD on that unit is dead now. CURSES!

What is the forecast for a solution on this? Is it a windows update or just waiting for an HTC driver update?

Thanks for any guidance.
[HTC One S] mikeius89:
thanks a ton worked wonders :laugh:
[HTC One S] ardax:
Microsoft knows about this, but doesn't seem willing to provide a general fix. Ultimately the problem is that Microsoft added an extra validation to device registration that HTC devices don't seem to honor. They're releasing an update to fix particular devices, but we don't yet know if end users will be able to edit the white list.

I have windows 8 32 bit. I would like to know if i will have problem when i will update windows to 8.1 32 bit. My computer have only usb2.0 ports

The problem exist only with usb3.0 port or i wil have it also with 2.0?

thanks
[HTC One S] ardax:
The problem exists with USB 2.0 ports as well. The reason that the "fix" posted works for USB 3.0 ports is because it uses Intel's USB 3.0 drivers for Windows 8 to work around the problem. There's also "fixes" floating around that involve rolling back to Microsoft's Windows 8 USB drivers to make it work.

If you don't have another PC that you can use to do things in fastboot, stick with Windows 8 until a proper fix is available.

[HTC One S] Likeachampion3:
The only thing I did any differently was to download the files before the reboot. I can't imagine that makes a difference but please correct me if I'm wrong. I validated all aspects of the initial note, still no luck. Again, I'm trying the AMD fix.

[HTC One S] badtzo:
The drivers on this thread doesn't work for me (can't install because incompatible drivers). But you give me a clue... so I search for AMD + Renesas USB 3.0 and I found this drivers after reading a lot of webs.

This guy give me the solution

So I searched for that version of Renesas Drivers and her It is.

Now my PC (Gygabite + AMD + Renesas USB3) is showing FASTBOOT USB on Windows 8.1

Hope this drivers work for some one.
[HTC One S] dd98:
Major update: Usb 3.0 driver install instructions fixed should now work with most (hopefully all) of you!!!!!! Also added htc drivers that work with win 8.1
[HTC One S] Zin0:
For method 1, when i installed the AMD chipset drivers and reboot using the startup settings, nothing happens when i press 7 for f7. And when i check the device manager, it doesn't show the amd usb 3.0. And i also installed the driver from method 2, but nothing showed up as well.

[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
I'm currently on windows 8.1 update 1 x64 and I have an AMD FX-8320 CPU so I'm on the AM3+ platform. My motherboard has, indeed, USB 3.0 ports but they are not integrated in the AMD 990FX chipset, they comes from a dedicated chip ( from Asmedia ), I suppose that the procedure explained in the first page is for AMD Apu ( FM2+ ) which have USB 3.0 integrated directly in the AMD chipset. So my question is, what can I do on my pc to have my HTC One S recognized under windows 8.1 ?

By the way, Has HTC realesed a newer version of the driver ( I currently have the HTCDriver_4.2.0.001 which I think it's the last, sadly ).
[HTC One S] dd98:
I'm not too sure as my laptop has an AMD E1-2500 APU and I already posted the new HTC drivers
[HTC One S] ardax:
Good news! It seems that MS is planning on adding a registry setting to fix this in the Aug 2014 update. Source
[HTC One S] dd98:
that's great news but personally, I hate windows 8/8.1 and if this does not work then I would highly advise you to go back to windows 7
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
So the official driver from HTC will work on windows 8.1 update 1 x64?
[HTC One S] dd98:
Yes but the USB PORT drivers dont so you will need to use method 1 or 2 in the first post
[HTC One S] BigShwag:
I had to install the Hub Controller Drivers, as well, that fixed the problem.
[HTC One S] afextwin:
I just read through this thread and I have to say I am impressed by the amount of dedication given by XDA users to diagnosing and solving the issue of Win8.1+fastboot+AMD.

But I have to say, a cheap i3 or i5 system would have saved you all collectively hundreds or possibly thousands of man hours.

OK. good job guys, i'm done trollin'.
[HTC One S] light_n_roses:
beside the stupid trolling amd vs intel you have also stated a wrong thing...fastboot it's a problem of windows 8.1 not of amd or intel. There are separate fixes because "the fix" consist in altering the driver of USB 3.0 which is proveided from intel or amd ( mainly ).
[HTC One S] dd98:
somebody over at droid life.com found a fix for intel based machines only, and i found a fix for amd based machines. Intel drivers will never work on an amd machine

Hi All,

With some tricks I managed to install TomTom 5 navigator but I'm having trouble connecting it to the GPS bluetooth mouse from Rikaline 6033.

I paired the device and assigned serial port com6 to it but I cannot see port com6 within TomTom.

TomTom bluetooth support is installed.

Any suggestions?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Lucas0511:
Tried this freeware?

http://www.bluetooth.jazztel.es/

Good luck! :)

"Pocket Bluetooth Tools adds the missing Bluetooth functions to the O2 XDA II (or other compatible PDAs like the MDA II).

The current version includes:

Support for Bluetooth Headsets and Car kits (Headset and Handsfree Profil). You may use up to 9 devices at the same time and you do not need to bond the again.

Support for the SSP profile (serial port), e.g. for GPS receivers or modems

Support for ActiveSync (synchronization with Outlook and Internet connection)

Switch Bluetooth on and off automatically

The current version 1.60 of the ROM includes already a virtual serial port but unfortunately it is a dynamic port, which is not visible to many applications. Also the ActiveSync support is difficult and complicated to use and if you want to synchronize with different computers you have always to couple the device again.

For future releases I plan the following improvements:

Support for Bluetooth network access points

Send contacts and files through Bluetooth"
