[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BipinTech:
here's the solution.. just had the same issue, i just reset my phone successfully. hope it works for you guys! Special thanks to Monotoko!

1. First thing you need to do is have the samsung drivers, if you're on Windows 7 or above, Windows can probably go find them for you when it comes to plugging your phone in or install from here: http://www.samsungusbdrivers.net/2017/04/samsung-s5830i-usb-driver-for-windows.html (Make sure you restart the computer after installing the Driver)

2. You need to have the original stock firmware, luckily they are essentially all the same so here is the Open Australia version I used (I'm on O2 in the UK) http://www.mediafire.com/?903oq9l7qbmkir4 (password is: mod2xtreme.com)

3: Extract that folder somewhere you will remember.

4: Odin is a firmware flasher, it's what will save your phone. It needs a PIT file, luckily some kind person has already packaged the PIT for the Ace within Odin here: http://xdaforums.com/atta...9&d=1345402010

Now you have all the different pieces required

5: Open Odin on your computer and put your phone into Odin mode by holding the power button, volume up and volume down. (and read the screen, it'll ask if you if you're sure and to press volume up) - once you plug the phone in correctly and the drivers are installed Odin should come up saying "<ID> Added!!"

6: A picture paints 1000 words here: http://i.imgur.com/La1r4zE.png - you should ensure you select your PIT file, and all the correct files from step 3 (modem = phone) - click start then wait for it to say "Pass" (I had a nervous smoke here)

7: Boot your phone into recovery by pressing the home button, volume up and power. Let it run through the update and wipe the cache and reboot itself.

8: You're in! It went German on me so I had to change the language at the startup screen, but other than that it's fine.

Hey guys

i found a way to get bootanimation.zip support for our galaxy star

so here it is

PLZ DONT FORGET TO THANK ME IF I HELPED

It has been tested on the Note II by [MENTION=2793317]smokin1337[/MENTION] and on our star by me but should work with any samsung device that uses samsungani to load boot animations. If it doesn't work for you please post here.

make sure busybox is installed The updater-script uses busybox to mount the partitions, so if it doesn't flash correctly install busybox from an app on the play store then try again.

i have kept a sample bootanimation.zip in the downloads it is google play edition boot animation for all u google lovers

How to use:

Add bootanimation.zip to /system/media

Flash Bootanimation4U.zip in recovery

If you want sound add an ogg file named PowerOn.ogg to /system/media/audio/ui, if sound doesn't work be sure /system/bin/samsungpowersoundplay exists if its there it will play sound if not its not included in your rom download it HERE then put it where it belongs and fix the perms which should be rwxr-xr-x

download boot animations of resolution 240x320 any ba with dat resolution will do :D:D:D

Reboot...Enjoy

*****RENAME ALL ANIMATIONS YOU DOWNLOAD FROM THE NET TO bootanimation.zip BEFORE PLACING IT

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jelledgeu2:
Hey guys, I got this same overheating issue with two TYLT chargers and two different Nexus 5's. I have read about a short term solution that so far seems to work.

Cause of overheating:

1. When the phone is placed against the charger, but 3/4" or so above the chargers bottom plate and then slide down- this can activate the top charging coil.

2. The phone is then slide down the charger until it contacts the bottom plate. The keeps the top coil active and begins heating the metal (magnetic) circles in the back of the phone.

Solution:

1. Place the bottom of the phone directly onto the bottom of the charger without sliding it down the charger stand. You can do this by angling the top of the phone away from the charger, kinda of like butt first approach. This will keep the top coil from activating and all is well.

Best of luck

hi guys, a friend of mine had the Galaxy Y S5369 from Vodafone and it didnt had root for it. I decided to make a universal root zip for the Galaxy Y series running STOCK android 2.3.X .

This will work with the following models (maybe other Galaxy ones too, this a preatty universal method among Galaxy devices.You can try this on other modes on your own risk)

Samsung Galaxy Y series

- GT-S5360

- GT-S5360B

- GT-S5360L

- GT-S5360T

- GT-S5363

- GT-S5367

- GT-S5368

- GT-S5369

NOTE: if in recovery you get an error like

CANT MOUNT SDCARD, CANNOT FIND /sdcard

you need to format your sd into a card reader. Then retry.

Instructions

-copy the zip to your SDCARD

-turn off the phone

-reboot into recovery (volume up+home+power)

-choose apply update from sdcard

-select from the sd the update.zip file

-reboot system now

-you are now rooted.

All you have to do is get a can of compressed air and blow into the earpiece to get dust out of the sensor every time this happens. It seems to be a relatively common problem.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rwijnen:
Hey all,

Need some help with this, getting quite frustrated:

I have an international S III (i9300) and whatever rom I use I have the exact same problem that seems to be related to bluetooth.

- First use it connects to my caraudio (pioneer deh-4400bt) and it works great, good sound etc.

- Than I start Sygic (navigation) on the Phone, which I set in the "Always use internal speaker mode", so it doesnt use BT

Now two things happen:

- In sygic the sound through the internal speaker is very soft

- When I try calling with the carkit it does connect and make the call, but I hear a terrible garbled sound and i don't hear the other side

When I turn off bluetooth and than start Sygic... sound is perfectly loud

I have tried several roms, lastly thinking the issue might be solved with 4.4 but still the same

Is bluetooth hardware or software, and, when software, is it kernel or modem related?

Anybody know what causes this problem and how to solve it?

So... I do have a HTC J (valente_wx / ISW13HT) which has no operational ROM (CWM is installed though). Due to this faulty ROM flash the internal SD card isn't functioning properly, thus I have to flash the stock RUU. However, the phone is HTCdev bootloader unlocked, which in turn required a CID change (KDDI_801 -> 11111111) which causes a RUU CID mismatch error.

In the RUU zip there is a android-info.txt file that contains the text

Um. The HTC One MIGHT be similar, since its similar screen size i think BUT its not flat on the back, its actually curved.

its clear and 2 piece and doesnt come off when the phone is dropped and it is quite thick so it protects the phone really really well.
[HTC First] killall-q:
Getting a case meant for another phone is basically throwing money away. And when you drop your phone and the phone just falls out of the case, you'll be throwing the phone away too. There is quite a selection of good cases online. What's wrong with amazon/ebay?
[HTC First] dramon:
My main purpose of buying the case is to add width to the phone. As it is, it's just a but uncomfortable holding the First because of the small bezel size.

Also I don't have a credit card so I can't buy online :/

I've been using this case for months now, it's an extremely snug fit with good grip.

http://www.sammobile.com/2014/01/10/verizons-galaxy-note-10-1-2014-edition-sm-p605v-visits-the-fcc/

I have been waiting for the U.S. to get the LTE version of this tablet and it looks like the wait is almost over. I still prefer a GSM version, from T-Mobile or AT&T. Carriers have been known to modify devices, so I am hoping they added USB 3.0 and changed the button layout similar to the Pro series with Kit Kat. That's wishful thinking but the reality is all we may get is a locked bootloader and Verizon logos!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
It's a P-605 so it'll be just like all the other P-605's. With the N3, all the U.S. carrier versions had the same h/w (except specific radios) and feature sets. Except of course what each carrier added and took away via s/w modifications. The "V" appended to the model number means VZW's N10.1-14 will probably follow suit. I don't know if you care, but all the U.S. carriers disable MMS and the dialer on their 3/4G tablets because they don't want them used as phones.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Russbad:
Not too concerned about SMS and call features, LTE frequency compatibility to make use of data is my main concern about not getting the non-U.S. version. I think it was AT&T who made hardware variation to the LG G2 buttons, so maybe useful mods can be made for the P605.
