[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Russ77:
I just got one yesterday as a replacement for my work phone. I was using an iPhone 4 on iOS 7. thdevicee mini is a about the same size, but I have the benefits of android, root, larger screen, and the Google kit Kat keyboard. compared to the outdated iPhone 4 it's a decent upgrade.

my personal line is a galaxy s4. the s3 mini doesn't compare, but given that the s4 is my primary device and the s3 mini is for work calls and email only it's pretty dang good.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkBloodPro:
its a good phone but we have only a few developers for custom roms

---------- Post added at 12:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:43 AM ----------

also we still dont have miui rom for example, wich almost every other phone already have one stable :/
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Russ77:
custom ROM support, or lack thereof, doesn't make a phone good or bad...

if flashing ROMs is a priority, get a nexus as AOSP based ROMs on pretty much anything else sucks. any device with a Google Play Edition version and an unlocked boot loader will be a very close second.

I think the S3 Mini is a very nice phone :) but there are many other phones which has better performance and battery but they are not so cheap like the S3 Mini :) The Moto G is okay but the Gaming Performance is bad.. sry for my bad english :)

It's typical mid-range, with a decent custom ROM every day tasks are quick and the phone is very responsive. It'll gobble up casual games easily and some old intensive games but unsurprisingly you're not going to playing brand new high end games!

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cschmitt:
Here is a firmware.zip containing TWRP 2.6.3.4 for m7ul that can be flashed in RUU mode with s-off: firmware_twrp.zip

Note: This firmware flashes TWRP recovery only, nothing else. All other firmware files (hboot, sbl, radio, etc.) will remain untouched. It does NOT factory reset, or erase /system or /data partitions.

To install, reboot into bootloader and then:

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware_twrp.zip
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Device will reboot into bootloader; select recovery and it will reboot into TWRP, then flash superuser/supersu to root.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cschmitt:
So you were able to flash the RUU-HTC_One_GE-2.14.1700.15.zip conversion RUU in fastboot, but not the firmware_twrp.zip ? That doesn't make sense, since with s-off bootloader lock state shouldn't matter.

From what I've read the 'too many links' error can be a corrupt zip, or USB port/cable problem.

Have you tried to flash the recovery.img directly with: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

You could just unlock the bootloader with revone: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2497712

As far as I know (and tried... not this but other stuff), with a locked or relocked bootloader (I'm S-Off) any "fastboot flash ....." command will result in "FAILED (remote: not allowed)" or similar.

Basically, my conclusion:

A) "fastboot flash ...." (in normal mode) won't work unless UNLOCKED irrelevant whether S-On or S-Off

B) "fastboot flash zip ..." (in RUU mode) will only work if: LOCKED/RELOCKED with S-On, or S-Off and then lock status doesnt matter.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] woodwaa:
Okay so I was duped by the low price when trying to fix my wife's One X and purchased the digitiser only.. I didn't even attempt to install it but I did pull her phone apart and destroyed her LCD and Touch screen before even separating the assembly as my tool slipped between the digitiser and LCD resulting in cracked/broken LCD

To be honest its a scam sellers are selling the glass only without clear warning of the dificulties ahead that LCD is sooooo fragile! and too much heat would just break the LCD..... and possibly de solder parts....

Now it still powers up and is visible via USB

Should I splash out the extra $30 and get the LCD only part from eBay and attach it to the touchscreen I already have?

or should I just buy the whole assembled unit for $90(Australian)

also Which LCD would I want? I have the Aussie Tegra version...(So I'm guessing the non AT&T version..)

Any Advice and experience would be appreciated Cheers!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:

What timaaaaa said. I've yet to hear of anyone doing it successfully, and if there is someone they're definitely the exception.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badkitties:
I can't remember where I read this on Motorola's website, but I seem to recall

something about charging the Moto G using USB chargers under 1.5A.

All of my chargers are 2.0A or higher. (all were original chargers from

my four Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and 3 phones, as well as tablets)

is it really unsafe to charge the Moto G with 2.0A USB chargers?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcnutty:
You are fine to use any amperage you want. The charging chip determines the amperage it pulls. The only danger to electronics is the wrong voltage, not amperage.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badkitties:
that's what I figured, but why does Motorola feel the need to

say "up to 1.5A"??? (in fact, I don't think I have ever seen

1.5A chargers... they are usually 0.5, 0.7, 1.0A, or 2.0A.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcnutty:
Because they are letting you know the maximum rate at which it can charge. It's not a warning that you can cause damage, just a notice that is the most the charging chip will pull.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillahh:
I'm using a 2.0A charger for about 2 month now without any problems. :good:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] debaj:
It is the maximum capacity the charger can supply. So if the device only needs 1.5 A and the regulator circuit is not faulty, it will only provide 1.5 ampers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gochapka:
Dear , I recently purchased through ebay a Chinese brand device HK HONDA S100 series model I001 ( Android OS ) , see attachment .

The same presented several problems since its commissioning, the which at first were partially solved by the seller but then he has not answered me more , so when I'm drifting and equipment operating erratically. So I come to you in order to guide me on some issues .

Additional I put a front unit DVR camera which can be commanded from the 2DIN unit, it has a very erratic and not always recorded, damaged files, it displays the image the camera captures and records but not at certain times the screen does not respond to commands and many other rare alternatives, I guess it's the camera that fails.

In normal operation messages with errors and failures of applications ( twitter , GPS IGO, etc. . ) Presented for which I was sent the Android OS upgrade file ( I001.exe file).

Here other problems began , the " Spanish " ( my language ) Portuguese language is 95 % and 5% Spanish weird!

The screen began to lose images being colored striped background with audio right . This I solved installing the firmware again.

How I had no response from the seller I contacted the factory and they sent me error the C001-1.exe, WinC6.0 firmware file; told them that my computer has the Android OS and tell me that is not possible, never sold well.

Well, at this point no longer understand anything like me!

So I ask them to indicate if possible install your firmware WinC6.0, and I guess will be more balanced and have a better GUI.

Best regards.

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curiousmike:
I had installed 'blackhawks next kernel' for dual-booting.

I had CM11 on partition 1 and Stock Samsung on Partition 2.

I decided I want to simply revert to a single partition with the stock Samsung.

I booted into partition 1.

I used Phils to install 'GT3_MH2_STOCK_Kernel_SM-t310_Tab3.zip'

When the machine rebooted, it jumped into the Cyanogen Mod boot sequence, and just loops.

If I try to turn the machine off to boot into recovery, the Tab doesn't shut down - it just reboots.

Trying to 'time' getting into recovery hasn't netted me much luck with about 20 tries of nailing the 10-second 'hold power button then nail volume up.'

Any suggestions?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] curiousmike:
Well, I got further.

I found that if I plugged the USB cable into the device into my computer, then pressed and held the power, when it would 'auto-reboot' to the battery icon screen.

Once at the battery icon screen, I unplugged the USB cable and the tablet completely turned off.

From there, I was able to get back to Philz.

So, I guess my new question is: How do I correctly install any kernel other than blackhawks, which would allow me to flash back to a stock ROM?
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gkvidhu1979:
Do a clean install of stock ROM by going into download mode. Power + Volume down + Home button.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gr8nole:
The kernel you installed will only work with stock roms. You still had CM installed as primary rom and attempted to use a stock kernel with it. That's why it wouldn't boot.

You have a couple options now for reverting to stock.

1. Odin - Download and flash a full stock firmware; then boot into recovery and do a factory reset. There are many guides for doing this with Odin. Firmware is available at sammobile.com.

2. Recovery - Download a stock-based rom and flash it in recovery. Make sure you do a full wipe in recovery before flashing. The rom will have a kernel also, so there is no need to flash another one.

Is anyone here running into problems installing apps from the app store? I have been getting the following error message the past few days whenever I install certain apps, but not others: "Couldn't install on USB storage or SD card."

I've gone as far as wipe my phone completely (after backing up) and reinstalling the ROM, but no good.

Those hidden folders do not exist with this ROM.

I wound up just installing the Blackout Extreme 4.2.2 release. It doesn't have the issue with installing paid apps.

The R2 MagioROM stripped Instagram for blinkfeed too (much to my annoyance).

Yeah, I spent a long while hooking my phone up to various computers and operating systems attempting to figure out if the folders were just hidden in Root Explorer or ES File Explorer, but it looks like those folders just don't appear anywhere.
