Hi guys, do any one of you knows if is there any chance to do a programmed soft reset at the desired time that you will like to do it, let say at 04:00 in the morning for example.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] ZeBoxx:
psShutXP has a timer for this

there's probably other stand-alone reset apps that you could use in combination with e.g. MemMaid to set up an event

MortScript might do it as well - no idea :)

Thanks a lot for your answers, at least now i have an idea from you on what i must to search.

Hi guys, i have a problem with my HTC ONE XL. Since it does not have forum for that phone and it is indentical as ONE X i will write it here and hope you guys will help .

So this is the thing, i buy a phone from e-bay and when it came it was already rooted. It has Android version 4.0.4 and sense version 4.0. I know that is old and i want to update to newest android version. When i enter software updates he find me update but it cant be installed. I am kinda new to this rooted devices, but can you just explain to me how to update to newest android version if that is possible.

I bought the cellphone from Hong Kong.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] -MightyMouse-:
First the ONE XL isn't the same as the ONE X. Now is this device unlocked. If so what recovery do you have and what hboot
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
You're in the right forum, this is the HTC One XL forum. You can't install official updates on a modified phone. Do you want to install official updates or do you want to install a custom ROM? They are very different methods.

Need bootloader details (first 5 lines in bootloader) before we can help at all. This will tell us whether the device is s-on of s-off, SuperCID, hboot version, etc.

Also, do you know how to get into recovery, and what recovery (TWRP or CWM) and version number.

Don't update anything until we tell you to. Its possible to brick the device without proper knowledge at this point.

And i enter recovery only when i try to update it with official HTC update. Then the ClockWorthMod starts and said that installation is aborted.

I dont know how to enter there without trying to install that update sry...
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
So it won't go into recovery, when you select recovery from the hboot menu?

Also, you didn't answer timmaaa's question about whether you want to install an official update, or to install a custom ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Tade1986:
Oh yes it enter Clokworkmod v5.8.3.1

I would like lastest official update for this phone, but do you guys think that is better solution? Are custom better then official?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Which is "better" is a personal choice, and we can't make that choice for you. Also, there are custom ROMs that are close to stock, but clean of bloatware and with some other optimizations.

Whether you pick official firmware or a custom ROM is up to you. But you are already setup for flashing custom ROMs, so that would just be a matter of picking one (or try a couple) that look good, putting them on the SD and flashing in custom recovery.

The reason your phone will not install the latest official update, is that the OTA needs to have stock recovery to install (and you have custom recovery installed). If you want to be on official firmware, its probably best to find the latest RUU for your carrier, run the RUU. Then OTA to the latest update.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Tade1986:
Tnx for everything man, i looked for custom ROM and i decided that might be better then officiall update. It have newest android version and sense 5.0 so i think i am going to use custom.

But all of them are look the same... Can you recommend some good ones because you are experienced on that field and i am total newbie. TNX
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] -MightyMouse-:
I don't know about redpoint but I would say that it all depends on what you want. If you want stock sense 5 att experience go with cleanrom 7. If you want almost every mod imaginable go with viper xl 4.2.0 then there are other roms that are in between. There are 2 stock ROMs as well as one ported ROM. Depends on prefrances. 2 things to know though. If you want sense 5 you need to run 3.18 ruu and upgrade the hboot to 2.15. then get the latest recovery of your choice.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Asking for a ROM recommendation isn't allowed, to say one ROM is better infers that others are inferior in some way. This isn't fair to the devs who spend their spare time bringing us these ROMs free of charge. I know [MENTION=5316027]phonegeekjr[/MENTION] has already recommended one but he shouldn't have. It's up to the user to have a look through the ROMs that are available and make a choice.

You do need to run the 3.18 RUU though, and then flash the 2.15 firmware package in order for any Sense 5 ROM to run without signal loss or random reboots.

Sent from my Evita
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] -MightyMouse-:
Didn't look at it that way. Am very sorry to all devs.won't happen again
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
You want to install the entire 2.15 firmware package to run Sense 5 ROMs, not just upgrade the hboot. Upgrading hboot does close to nothing, at least for potential signal drop and reboot issues on Sense 5 ROMs.

---------- Post added at 12:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:43 PM ----------

If they all look the same, then you need to read more and understand what the various features mean.

Really, in the time you asked for a recommendation and waited for a response, you could have just flashed a ROM and started trying it out.

Hi folks,

I have a quick question, but can the Tmobile Note 3, when unlocked, support international 3G (i.e., the same bands as AT&T I presume)?

I've read that the T-Mo Note 3 supports LTE on AT&T's network, but I'm not sure if LTE is the same as 3G in terms of band support.

Thanks in advance to those who have the answer for this.

Cheers.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to install a custom kernel for my phone, but before that im trying to look for a stock kernel in case of any error.

So can anyone help me find/give a stock kernel for my phone galaxy ace plus.:good:

PDA: S7500DXLB1

PHONE: S7500DXLB1

CSC: S7500OLBLB1

Would really appreciate the help.:):)

p.s. i tried looking for it myself but i can't seem to find any.:o
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kevin12lin:
Don'y be worry.

This website provides all edition of S7500 stock firmware. http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-S7500

However, I cannot find your country's.

Can you tell me which country version do you want?
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] jsnrox:
thanks for helping

Well, i bought my phone here in the Philippines. Also i came across a thailand firmware while searching and it matches mine, but the link is not available anymore.

So if you can find/give a stock firmware for me it will really help me a lot.:)

p.s. i cant post links yet so google "s7500dxlb1" and view the one that says "S7500DXLB1 Android 2.3.6 Thailand Firmware Download" to see the link im talking about.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kevin12lin:
Here is the Thailand version latest stock firmware.

http://samsung-updates.com/details/20764/Galaxy_Ace_Plus/GT-S7500/THL/S7500DXMG3.html

Download it and use Odin V1.85 to flash the stock firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] jsnrox:
question

would this work on my phone?, the file says "S7500DXMG3" and the one installed in my phone stocked is version S7500DXLB1.:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] kevin12lin:
Ans

Don't be worry.

I live in Taiwan but I can flash even German version( I've tried before)

This firmware is the latest. I think your version is older one. Samsung released several version to make it stable, so the latest version is the stablest version and it will also add some new features.

Actually, all S7500 firmware is suitable but you have to notice that your area.

Because I found I flash German 2.3.6 stock firmware and I cannot have stock Chinese keyboard in it.

Flash your country version is the best choice.

p.s. if you flash from a custom rom, don't forget to back up data you want and do factory reset. it will make your S7500 work like a new phone

:D
[Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus S7500] jsnrox:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Kwijybow:
I'm sure this has been asked many times before, but I just wanted to make absolutely sure I'm ready before I flash, so I don't brick my phone. I have been reading the forums for a few days now. I have an S3 (i747M) with Fido. I'm not totally sure which ROM to go with. From what I understand so far, I'm thinking StockMOD or Dandroid. I want a fairly minimalistic OS, latest version (4.3 vs 4.4?), so I can play the occasion game on it and get good idle battery life. I believe I have rooted my stock rom and I have disabled some of the bloat through the "Application Management" option under settings. Any advice on flashing? I have spent many years building, modding and generally tinkering with windows pcs but I haven't done anything with phones, android or linux. Any advice? Obviously do the backup of my current phone with the app mentioned on the related ROM installation page. I assume I can restore my phone back to this stock ROM is the new one fails? After the backup, do a full phone wipe and default restore. Then hook the phone to my PC via USB and use the related program to flash the phone? Thank you for any and all replies in advance. :good:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] winosxbuntu:
in my opinion or anyone will say that 4.3 is the most stable right now, and 4.4 is only available for CM based roms.....Samsung Touchwiz will always be the last to update their devices to 4.4 while custom roms AOKP, SLIM BEAM, PAC ROM, BEAN STALK, CM, PARANOID, ETC they will always have nightlies on latest the Android version but will take sometime for stable roms to be released

1st before you think of flashing please research and know what you're getting into

2nd read all the info. ROOT your i747m with cf-auto root (i recommend it cuz its the simplest, easiest, safest way to root)

3rd install custom recovery there are two that i know of but am confident and comfortable with clockworkmod recovery....u can try TWRP

4th yu can either wish to stay stock touchwiz, 2types of stock

-one that comes from samsung all bloated and no tweaks and

-the one that is taken by devs debloated, modded, customized, xposed mod, minimalistic, faster and better.

--OR you can go completely Android vanilla stock, which has nothing but the normal google staff (ITS LIKE A NEXUS DEVICE from Google) you dont have any bloatware, or features/addons just plain stock

5th Once yu know the basic, the universe is yours, with Android comes endless customization and possibilities just like Microsoft Windows, Linux, ubuntu or even OSX

6th wish to become a DEV its your choice, wish to modify, play with the filesystem its your choice but without knowledge of what you're doing bricking is easy as just deleting a file yu think its not important

7th help the rest with android as you do with PC

PS am learning to code now but one thing at a time so am starting with Web design, plan to learn some computer languages, hacking, etc computer science :laugh: maybe yu can help me out :cool:

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Kwijybow:
Thanks for the reply. It's been a while since I originally posted this. I decided to hold off on a custom ROM at that time but I find myself back again, still wanting to customize my phone (especially now that my contract is about to expire). I figure that if I do brick my phone beyond repair, I'll just get another phone anyways so not so worried about it now. :D

Anyways, one concern I have about flashing a custom ROM on my S3 is can I go backwards in Android versions? I can confirm that I am running the stock (Rogers / Fido) Android 4.4.2 which I believe is Kitkat? I am very interested in going either StockMOD or Dandroid, which as far as I can tell are 4.3 Jellybean? Can I do that?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Yes, you can run a 4.3 rom on your phone as long as you do not try to downgrade the bootloader.

You can go back to completely stock Rogers by using Odin to flash as stock kk rom from sammobile.com.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Kwijybow:
Thanks for the reply. Regarding the bootloader, the versions of Android I'm looking to install say they need the 4.3 bootloader. How can I check which bootloader I am running on my phone?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
If you're phone is running stock Rogers kit kit, you have a kit kat bootloader which you can't downgrade.

If the rom needs a 4.3 bootloader and since you have a newer bootloader, you can probably load the rom.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cityman1962:
Likewise,I have this case,externally its ok-slim, quite well cut etc.

BUT,internally its totally bonkers,phone is held in with (very) sticky tape,which means

1.you have to really tear the phone to get it out of the case-it will almost certainly pull away the bonded glass back away from the rear of phone over time.

2.If you shut the case when empty,it glues itself together- hard.

3.If you leave the case lying about open-dust,fluff,tobacco,flies etc plaster the sticky tape.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] abdallahmemon:
Now thats scary, I am planning to get a customised protective skin for my phone, because 2 days back I used a friends naked Zu and comparatively my phone feels bulky.

So the skin might help it be in original shape and I could even get a carbon fibre or leather feel.

And for the after removal I have kept the original plastic sheet which covered the sticker on the case, I hope that will come to use when I remove the case which will be soon
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cityman1962:
Hi,trouble with not using the silly sticky strip is-try picking up the case from horizontal(with phone in),and hold it vertically,phone will tend to drop straight out of of the case!Kind of negates the point of having a protective case if it ends up in bits on the floor don't you think! ?

I hope this finds it's way to the development thread.

I'm using the v09 version of iodak's kernal on the Stock open euro V20a ROM.

Done!

Now you can install ADB drivers and connect your phone with no problems.
