I've noticed on UK eBay that there are people selling the unlocking software that is available on this website for free. I feel its safe to assume that the people selling the software are not the authors, or contributors.

I'm just wondering how many of the people that contribute to the free unlocking apps on this website recieve anything for their efforts.

After all if the people selling the apps are not the software authors, then are they not in breach of copyright?

I'm not trying to stir up talks of legal action, but another forum i occasionally frequent (Pocket GPS world) used to produce a free speed camera overlay for sat-nav packages like TomTom. They found that their free speed camera overlay was being sold on eBay by less than honest individuals. In the end, they started a complaint procedure with ebay, and got a lot of the offending auctions removed.

Any website costs somthing to keep on the internet, and the cash these ebay traders make, is effectively robbing the website of an income.

Of course i may be completely wrong, and the authors of the software / website are getting rich quick on ebay.

On my AT&T note I717 I'm running android version 2.3.6. I want to upgrade android 4.1.2 or 4.2.2. I've tied a couple different roms but it fails in the flashing process using CWM recovery any suggestion to why or What I'm doing wrong. I give thanks to everyone in advance for your help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
what version of recovery, meaning there should be a version # 6.0.?.?

or are you getting a status 7? which means your recovery needs to be updated

you have rooted right?

just basic information im asking, but folks need to know
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] chaz411:
I'm sorry I always forget something when I'm asking a question on here. But yes I am rooted and it says my CWM-RECOVERY version is 5.5.0.4 if I need to update which version would I want or would you suggest going with TWRP? Answer to your other question it is saying (STATUS 7)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
6.0.4.3 is the most recent version and you may have to look back a page or so, but in the General forum there is a thread titled CWM 6.0.4.3 touch recovery and there is a flashable file.

TWRP is fine too, but it depends on what else you may flash in the future. the 4.4 roms dont work with TWRP.

there is a TWRP thread also though in Original Development. some had been having problems with latest version, so you may want to go to the last page and read a bit.

but updating your recovery will solve your problem

have fun

id help out a little more, except i am at work and they may frown upon this if they catch me

I keep thinking any day now Google will update the Hangouts or Google Voice app to integrate both of them, and it seems to be continually pushed to the side. For the time being, I decided to theme the current Google Voice app to make it look more like Hangouts and less cartoony/Froyo look. Let me know what you think!

Feel free to build upon my work, just be sure to share what you did if you make improvements. :)

I know this might not be the right thread for this post, so if someone can direct me.

I was wondering if it would be possible to edit in the file (classes.dex?) in Google Voice apk, the list of Domestic, area codes.

Currently it is set where all the local area codes in US are domestic, and all others are international. If you set the calling to only use google voice for international calls, it will only use it for all calls outside of US.

I live in Canada, and would like to set all Canadian area codes as local, and all US area codes as international.

Please someone direct me.

I know the partitions between the two devices are different sizes, so someone who have to make a GPe LG skinned rom. The biggest thing you'd be missing besides qpair, and the IR software is the knock function.
[G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angry english:
Ahhh Gunnyman from the HTC One side, remember you helping out with the GPe Conversion of the HTC One, you cant put the LG rom on it which kinda sucks, ive been waiting for the GPe conversion for the regular G Pag but as the guy above said it cannot be done.

I have the regular LG G Pad and as soon as i was able to i went and put CM11 on it, the LG rom is a bit touchwiz like, and i found it had system lag, as soon as CM got loaded this thing flew, wont ever go back, i have Qpair working on Cm and i can Knock on but not knock off, the qslide feature is not much use to be honest, only certain apps use the feature, and the IR isnt the best. i was going to buy the GPe G Pad but cant bring myself to spend the extra (paid $259 for mine on black Friday weekend), You could always return your GPe and buy the regular and swap Roms, and probs save yourself a few bucks in the process, but your not missing much to be honest

Hello everybody,

I was just wondering if there was a way of downgrading from 4.3 back to 4.1.1 on my T999V with Wind Mobile. I recently sent my phone off to Samsung to get repaired. They decided not to repair it, but instead updated it to 4.3 (something I didn't ask for). I have heard about AT&T users bricking their phones from trying to downgrade. Is this just an issue for AT&T S3s? The reason I want to downgrade is due to dismal battery performance, slower response times, and a quite few nuances in the UI and notification system that I don't like. The Knox counter doesn't really bother me so much, as my warranty expires in a couple of weeks. Can anybody help me?

Thanks...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Sorry, this is a one way process. You will hardbrick your phone trying to downgrade. What goes for ATT phones goes for all S3.

You can flash other Roms via Custom Recoveries. But do not try to flash older Stock firmware or Older Root66 images.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] andyfactor:
Surely there has to be some successful way, or at least a thread somewhere, in which a solution is being worked on. Is there anything that can be done to temporary fix issues such as massive battery drainage, poor RAM usage, lag and poor response time?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
The Battery Drain is attributed to the 4.3 update by some. This applies to all S3 Variants and not just wind version. Others have had consequent sluggishness.

My suggestion would be to try modified Stock Roms such as [MENTION=3760726]saranhai[/MENTION] 's Stock Mod Rom.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] andyfactor:
Thanks for the pointers. Although I'm sure that enough people are having a bad time that Samsung has to do something about it in the near future. Either that, or someone will find some sort of loophole in the Knox protected boot loader. For now, I will give Samsung Support a message. I mean, I didn't even ask them to do this. Gaaahhhh.

Thanks anyways.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
Probably. But given how pervasive the EFuse is, I highly doubt they will change. As it is, its targeted at those who root anyway.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] andyfactor:
Couldn't I just use this, [GUIDE] Root T999 (variants) on android 4.3 AND remove knox and use something like Clockwork Mod with root to place 4.1.1 firmware back on my phone (or some other tool)? It will trip the KNOX counter, but if Samsung won't help... Would this work? On the thread [APP][4.3++]SELinuxModeChanger[PRE-ALPHA] , there looking for a way to make it work with KNOX, so that should help.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] calexchelse:
Perseus71 is really trying to help you.

Do not try to downgrade your firmware or you will own a very expensive paper weight.

This is a one way street.

However, try root 66 method of touring and most sluggishness and battery drain goes bye bye.

And then if you want a custom ROM that is 4.1, try it.

BUT DON'T TOUCH FIRMWARE.

Most of the battery drain is coming from bloatware and Samsung system apps such as Knox, which root66 does not have Knox. Will have the counter, but that's about it.

---------- Post added at 01:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 AM ----------

To be honest, I'm running the S3Rx 4.3 ROM. Actually, the first one he put out. Haven't tried updating it yet since this is smooth and low on battery.

---------- Post added at 02:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 AM ----------

But that is for t999 only so, I would try to at least root66
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
The guide you have mentioned will help remove Knox. IT WILL NOT REMOVE THE EFUSE IN BOOTLOADER.

So please do your research before you so much as touch any of this areas.

Very Well said. Only slight correction. The Root66 for 4.3 does indeed contain both Knox and the new bootloader.

please help me

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benh84:
Hi and thanks for looking at this post,

I have searched the forums and haven't found a thing that works for my phone. I rooted and backed up my current version this morning (4.2.2 stock) using CWM. I then proceded to install Wanamlite 1.5 for the S4 GT-I19505, which installed but had serious issues with sound, everything would crash when the volume controls were pressed or headphones inserted. I therefore switched ROM to Android revolution HD 1.0. I installed what I thought was the relevant wifi fix, but no joy.

At this point, I restored to stock 4.2.2 hoping it would solve the issue, but it hasn't, my cwm backup also has the issue after attempting to restore.

Anyone got any suggestions of how I can fix this? I thought the stock restore would have done this, but obviously not.

I am running android 4.2.2 on a stock rom (XXUAMDD_I9505EVRAMDA_EVR).

GT - I9505

If you need to know anything else, let me know. Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:
- Go to CWM

- Make a full wipe (data, system and cache)

- Restore ur old stock backup

- I think this will solve ur problems :highfive:
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benh84:
Thanks for the quick response, unfortunately it hasn't worked :(

I'm assuming it's a kernel issue, but surely that would have been replaced after installing back to stock? Is there anywhere we can download the individual required kernels maybe?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Repulsa:
hey bro , since your on 4.2.2 would you mind to flash this via odin by selecting PHONE/CP? download it and extract http://d-h.st/f99 Make sure to turn off your phone manually then go to download mode and flash.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benh84:
Thanks for the help, was a different file from the one I tried earlier, but still no joy with this one either.

There doesn't appear to be a wifi-fix from the list of those files for my version. I'm going to try it, combined with a complete stock reinstall now, to see if there is any change.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Repulsa:
as you can see if you flash a wrong LTE modems will break your sound . maybe thats why you loose your sound at all :) , would you mind booting into download mode and tell what does it says on top left of your screen :) thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benh84:
I guess that is what has happened. I've found the right modem fix now, so currently applying with odin as well as a full stock restore.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Repulsa:
I really dont understand why are you trying to revert into your back up? when you can just flash a 4.3 stock rom in order to fix all this problem? then root it after ? just so you know that your warranty is already void sir. so go ahead and make a back up and flash a 4.3 stock rom from samsung website. thank you.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benh84:
Thanks, I'll do that. I was trying to steer clear of 4.3, because of issues I had keeping root access on it, but if that's what will solve these problems then that's fine for me. As for the warranty, I don't mind too much :) Thanks for all the help again.

Hey guys,

I am REALLY impressed with what Hashcode has done (I sent him a donation, totally deserved) but I would like it if someone explained Safestrap to me a bit more in detail. I read the Safestrap thread, but I don't feel like it explained technical details of it. This is just to satisfy my curiosity of what is actually happening.

I will also ask questions about what I don't understand and I hope someone can help me understand more clearly what is happening.

Can someone help me understand the boot process of Android? From what I understand, the bootloader will only boot signed kernels, kinda like some of the new motherboards are doing (or are capable of doing). How does this differ when safestrap is introduced?

How does Safestrap "partition" or break up the different slots? Is it creating new partitions? Is it creating files that are then mounted as partitions?

Do the partitions use the same space for saving application preferences? Or is each environment (slot) separate and isolated from each other?

I'd really like to know more details! Thanks for any help and explanations.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carl1961:
creates virtual ROM-slots, not partitions

http://blog.hash-of-codes.com/how-to-safestrap/ it uses your freed space on your phone
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
Safestrap does not change your kernel. It is simply the same as multi OS boot on a PC. SS still uses the original kernel but during boot the bootloader is redirected to the ROMS you have stored in your internal RAM to load instead of the original ROM. You get a menu at boot that allows you to selc original or a slot ROM to boot from. SS as well as the ROMS for it does nothing to or with the Kernel. As of right now the kernel on this phone cannot be touched, much less modified.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jonrobertd:
So using safestrap, I can switch between stock and a modded rom at will?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
You have to reboot, but yes you can change when you want. Just keep in mind this method consumes a large amount of internal memory. As space will be taken by each ROM in each slot.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woodsdog:
What is a virtual rom slot? If it's a pre-determined space, then it's not just a directory on the file system.

I see you can put custom /data on there up to 4GB. What is the default system one without safestrap?

I'd be really curious to almost see this in a diagram of the internal SD card, or understand it well enough to create my own.

Still trying to understand the magic...
