1. I'm on 3.70 version of Safestrap I just upgraded today. I was on 3.65 when the problem first appeared.

2. I've attached a picture of my baseband and kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Voyaging:
Hello everyone,

I had to send my phone back to Verizon due to hardware issues (I was rooted and running 4.1.2...). The new phone came with 4.3. Is it possible to root this? I saw in the main root guide that if i tried using that method, i'd brick my phone. So if you can point me to a guide for rooting 4.3, i'd like to get a good rom flashed on this thing..

thanks,

tommy

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Voyaging:
I read through a few pages… All I see there is that there's no way to root 4.3… No way to flash ROMs?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Click the link that reads "Saferoot for rooting after 4.3." Then once you've achieved root access, use Safestrap which is linked in that TW discussion thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
You can root, but no AOSP roms. You can install a recovery called safestrap and run custom touchwiz roms.

It's all in the OP. Everything is linked there.

Edit: ninja'd....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
You were a bit more detailed my friend, I keep forgetting about the custom TW 4.3 only limitation with Safestrap.

[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] darkgiant:
Hey Guys,

I had a question about this specific phone, I have been using the myTouch 4G for over 3.5+ years, where I rooted the phone to run CM7.2. I saw this phone on sale for $139.99 and decided to try it out. I have been using it for a few days, it seems fast, but my biggest reason for retiring my original myTouch 4G was because it has been too long and the phone and hardware is basically becoming outdated.

I wanted to clarify, does this phone seem to still have a good life to it? Will there be future updates to install Jelly Bean? I honestly want a phone that will last me a long time (like my myTouch 4G did) and has the same neat features to it too. I am a college student, so I am looking for a solid daily driver at the end of the day to get my job done.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] njstein:
This is a great phone. Does it match up against the heavyweights? No, of course not. Will it get official Jelly Bean? No. Samsung quit developing it after 4.0.4. We have cm10, cm10.1, cm10.2, and cm11. There are issues with the builds past cm10, but nothing deal-breaking for me. There are issues with Kitkat, but the amazing devs are working on it and hopefully get those figured out.

If you don't mind rooting (and for this phone it's way easy, imo) and flashing, then there are a lot of excellent ROM's here. If you want official JB, then I would suggest looking elsewhere. I would recommend this phone (it's basically a smaller S2), but I've done a lot to it.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] darkgiant:
Thanks for responding! I really want to love and use this phone for the long run! I guess my only clarification is, is this phone a good long-term phone? I am open to rooting my phone, or am even more open to staying put with the Stock ROM (it doesn't seem to bother me so far...). I obviously want a phone that would last hardware wise, and I figured the dual-core snappy processor would be the biggest nudge, especially for the price range I managed to pick this up fore ($139.99) on Amazon.

Other than that, I think this might be a good phone. To start off, do you have any good recommended daily drivers like ROMs for this phone? Obviously, something fast, and consumes minimal battery life.

Also, since this phone is brand new, would rooting it void my warranty for the device? I had officially rooted my myTouch 4G after two full years (my warranty period was over).
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] phredbull:
Racing19969's AOKP Jelly Bean rom has been great to me. The only issue I've had is governor settings not sticking after a reboot.

As for the device itsself, battery life is a bit lacking IMO. I get about 10 hours with moderate use. Maybe 12 if I use it only when necessary, & I could kill it in less than 6 if gaming.

Other thing is the USB port is suceptible to damage w/the cable in. I'm on my 2nd warrantee replacement for this.

And finally, yes, rooting any device will void its' warrantee. (though I sent both of my broken ones back stock, but still rooted. No one seemed to notice. Shh!)
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
All that I would add to this is that if you want official JB and don't want to root and whatnot then you should give the galaxy s light sgh-t399 a look. Often priced at 149 (was this price on newegg recently). Quad core but otherwise similarly spec'd - 4 inch screen, 5mp camera, but the light also has LTE whereas the blaze does not.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] darkgiant:
Would the quad core processor make a giant difference in terms of performance compared to the Blaze? The Galaxy Light is listed as "1.4 GHz Quad Core" versus the Blaze, which is listed as "1.5GHz Dual Core". For a mobile phone, would the difference in performance be very big that I should consider switching? I don't mind spending $149 at all, just another $10 bump. But I wouldn't want to waste my time and money doing it if the performance was very minimal, and really did nothing for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
I don't think it would be minimal- there should be architectural differences with the newer SoC (the light) beyond just clock speed that will positively impact performance. Having said that, there should be a performance gain with the quad - whether or not you would be able to notice that is really dependent on how you will use your phone. I believe the light's SoC uses smaller transistors (should be 28nm) vs the blaze's 45nm SoC which usually means better battery life (since the screens are the same). In addition, the light has a slightly larger battery (1800 vs the blazes 1750). If you live in an LTE area you shouldn't dismiss the light's LTE capability.

But there is ZERO development on the light now. Not even root. If that matters to you then the blaze would be a better choice. 4.4 is here, and the little issues with 4.4 will soon be worked out by some really cool guys dedicating their time for this community.

If price isn't an issue (over $10) then my recommendation would be this:

If root and development (getting 4.4 and possibly beyond) matter at all to you, then get the blaze.

If you need or want LTE, want a fully functional phone with JB (the barcode camera functionality and speakerphone are all I am aware of not working in the JB roms for the blaze), can live with touchwiz, and want the newer/more powerful/(slightly) better battery life device then get the light.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] darkgiant:
Just curios, why is there absolutely no development on the light? Speed is not a huge issue for me with the Blaze right now.

In all honesty, I rarely play video games on my phone, I usually use it as a device to keep me synced with my calendar, go on facebook/instagram/snapchat and text people. I use it to call occasionally for a couple of minutes, but other than that, I really am mostly browsing stuff that is about it. I personally dislike gaming on mobile phones (I might play Flow when I get super bored) but seriously, that is about it.

How would you guys consider the camera for the Blaze? I think the front camera is actually much better, right? Also, on the myTouch 4G, there was a little Light blinker for notifs, I realize the Blaze does not have that, but do other smartphones have that as well?

I really like this phone so far, will require some adjusting as I am used to pressing a physical button for the camera to open up, but it is totally fine.

As of right now, it looks like I am geared to sticking with this phone from everyone's suggestions.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] anactoraaron:
There is no development on the light due to it just being so new. Also, the sub 199 phone market has just had some recent compelling phones enter this segment (the moto g is just one) so anyone who wanted to purchase a sub 199 phone perhaps already has. That's not to say that there will be always no development on the phone, but you are taking a chance if you buy it if you want a phone that has an active development community.

FWIW - I am thinking of picking up the light as a backup (since I gave my blaze to my cousin). If development ever takes off, that phone will be great. If not, if it at least gets root I will be happy with having wifi calling again.

The camera is passable, it's obviously nothing high end. I don't ever use the front camera - I'm just not a 'selfie' kind of person :)

Not many low end phones have a notification light, so I don't think the light has one either.

The blaze is a great little phone, and with a kick ass dev community, it should be running the latest android for awhile.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] darkgiant:
The Samsung Galaxy Light is actually priced for $169.99 (cheapest I found, which was on Amazon). I honestly don't feel like putting up another $30.00 for it, what do you guys think? At the end of the day, my needs seem pretty simple... As of right now ICS is doing me fine, might consider rooting my phone once I do officially get out of school again (most likely Spring break). Thoughts?

I am hoping to keep this phone for at least two years, or even more, as I personally don't "game" or take fancy smancy pictures, other than a couple of Instagram pictures, which are always filtered... (its true! :) ).
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] Chitown021:
I'm itching for a new phone myself but my Blaze just keeps chugging along with all of the awesome devs kicking out sweet roms. I've got my eye on the N5 for my next phone but I just can't justify shelling out the cash when the Blaze is just fine for my daily needs. If/when the few lingering bugs are work out in the KitKat roms (speaker phone & scanner) I will be in hog heaven!
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] darkgiant:
Haha, that is great to hear. I am thinking the Blaze will be it, for a low price, I think I got a good bang for the buck.
[Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G] darkgiant:
Just wanted to say, to say, so far so good with this phone. I think it is official, I will stick with this phone as my new daily driver.
[Networking] andrewilley:
I've seen a lot of postings about how to use Wizards as dialup modems, either via Bluetooth or USB, and I presume that this allows making a dialled GPRS connection from the latop but does not allow the phone to access the internet at the same time? (Does it also block voice calls on the phone?)

I'd like to know if there is any way to use a currently active "T-Mobile Internet" unlimited GPRS connection on my device (which now stays on most of the time) to allow access to the internet from a USB-connected laptop?

Just to occasionally test the theory of course, not really allowed to use laptops with this tarif... ;)

[Security Discussion] mariio85:
cerberus is really a good one, it also takes a pic with front camera and sends it to your mail if someone tries to unlock your device and inserts a wrong pattern/pin/password
[Security Discussion] fadedout:
I previously used "Android Lost" and now I almost exclusively recommend "avast! Mobile Security". It has a great anti-theft component that can be discreetly installed to the system and controlled via SMS or web GUI. It can activate data/GPS unbeknownst to a thief, set up a lock and message, siren, etc. It also has a great tracking feature that can be set to update every N mins/hrs or on command. I have set it up for a number of friends and have seen it perform during two different phone-jackings and other lesser events. It has a number of other security features, but they mostly cater towards beginners. It features a firewall, permissions viewer, app lock, etc. There are better individual apps or options for those however.
[Security Discussion] Skulldiver:
There are many apps to do that, a good and famous one is cerberus. Also Avast is possible or still the Google Device Manager. I'm using the last one. It's enough for me.

I know it's possible to unlock the bootloader for the FHD 10 but how would I boot windows? I noticed people flash rooted images after they unlock bootloaders, would booting windows be the same? Would I need to create a windows image and then flash it like one would a rooted image?

Here's how to root the FHD 10 . Flashing full versions of windows 8.1 on and android x86 device seems like something no one has done yet. It will be awesome when it happens though.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danbjorklund:
Technically the hardware could support Windows 8, but I doubt we'll be seeing anyone trying to bring the OS to the ME302C. There just aren't enough developers interested in the tablet and it's not as simple as putting windows onto a new computer is.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drpilot:
windows on mobile devices (all versions) does not get as much support as android. and they are not open source so their hacks and mods are very few.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noisavni:
A $250 Win 8 tablet will draw in developers. I believe a lot of Asus Transformer Prime Devs will be interested.

As for installing windows, your right, tablet bios' are very basic.Either a bios will need to be ported or something like twrp2 could be used to make flashing a windows image manageable.

The biggest problem is getting things to work on x86, even the asus bootloader unlock was written for ARM and needs to be recompiled.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mingkee:
Another problem is storage. Even 32GB is not enough for Windows (not RT).

If you managed to install OS on SD, it's a different story.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noisavni:
Windows 8.1 has a minimum storage requirement of 16 GB. Installing programs would be best on a micro sd card. Although the fhd comes in both 16 and 32 gb. Enough to install microsoft office and some other productivity apps without a sd card.

Hi,

When i try to flash the factory ROM onto my phone it comes up with this error and i have tried everything, like different drivers, usb ports, different PC and everthing else i can think of. SO if someone could help me PLEASE :) BTW I couldnt enable ADB so i am using fastboot and my boot loader is unlocked.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyYan:
1. Buying and using a Nexus phone usually means you have some basic Android knowledge (or at least know what your phone is!), but as you requested help for

Nexus 4

in a

Galaxy Nexus

subforum, I don't see that. :D

2. Hmm, your toolkit only says "An Error Occurred" and halts, leaving you no idea where the error occurred. That's why you probably should try to settle with fastboot, adb and other powerful command-line tools. Unlike toolkits, they are step-by-step and are likely to tell you where the errors are.

3. For a pure fastboot way of flashing a factory image, here you go: LINK - this is how I reverted my own Nexus 4 to stock with little effort.
