[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntaresOne:
Samsung will never release 4.2/4.3/4.4 official update for our phone... They are f*****g busy to create 10 useless devices at month: Galaxy Sx, Galaxy Sx Zoom, Galaxy Sx Active, Galaxy Sx Nuclear Power, Galaxy Sx Alluminium Case, Galaxy Sx AB, Galaxy Sx for my Grandma, Galaxy s**t, Galaxy Ugly and Galaxy Note 99.1 The End of the World Edition. and only 1 or 2 of these will be updated and their software is a s**t. C'mon guys, Samsung is interested only on marketing! Don't matter if we are angry for this, petitions, etc... They see only money and is the only interest of Samsung

EDIT: One new useless device: "Galaxy Note 3 Olympic Games Edition", maybe it can make me fast as Usain Bolt, MAYBE...:silly:

[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntaresOne:
Five years ago I had a Samsung GT-I8910 Omnia HD based on S60v5 OS... World's first smartphone with HD video recording (terrible recording, huge fps drop, sh****ng audio... Caused by f***ing S60v5 OS personalized by Samsung) and best camera phone of year 2009. It was updated like 2-3 times in two years with an always sh****ng software, only community of modders fixed his problems and finally the HD video recording and audio recording... It was a rocket only with mods. In five years nothing has changed, always s**t software. I seen my friends and other people with SIII, SIV etc. cursing for extreme slowdown, Samsung knows that its software is crappy and slow like a snail, but as I said earlier is interested only on marketing to make money (hmm think about a bitten apple :silly:), not interested to fix their software once and for all. This makes me angry, because Samsung take the p**s its users with advertising campaigns and advertising on TV, yesterday I seen a spot about Note III, person saying "The new Samsung Galaxy Note III with its Quad-core processor makes all faster" etc etc, talk about software!! C'mon!!! All TW android versions are s**t on every Samsung Android device. TW itself is a s**t. Samsung is a s**t brand.

Anyone know how to get the backlight back to the original setting? I tried to go into Settings to Battery Icon and clicked on Backlight and adjusted it there but everytime the phone goes into sleep mode, the backlight always reverts to power saver mode and I cant see a damn thing on my screen. It is very frustrating...anyone know how to correct this problem? Am I doing something wrong???? TIA....M3
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] daniel.a.rezende:
I have the same problem, but in my Wisard the problem happens when a soft reset is executed ... I was searching about it on the internet and I found that maybe the problem is an incopatibility between the fone and the SPB Pocket Plus backlight functionality ... I will try to uninstall the SPB to see what happens ...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] a042349:
Here's my backlight bug theory...

On the Wizard there are problems with any programs that try to change the backlight settings and often the result is they end up turning it off.

PocketZenPhone, PhoneAlarm and SPB Pocket Plus all have features to control the backlight (do you have the backlight plugin installed on your today screen?) that load at boot, or on the Today screen, and these seem to cause problems.

I use PhoneAlarm and have problems on occasion. Believe it or not I found the solution was to tell PA to set the backlight at 40% which it can't be set to on the Wizard (25% increments only) and it stops shutting it off. If I have it set for 50% (which *is* valid on the Wizard) it shuts it off.

Anyway this is my theory on the mysterious backlight bug, if anybody else has any other ideas, I'd love to hear them.

-JMS
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] dcbehan:
If you go to the backlight applet and check the Turn on backlight when a button is pressed or the screen is tapped on both the Battery Power and External Power tabs you should be all set. Had the same issue after the last iMate ROM update and this is what fixed it.

Hope it works for you. Good luck.

odin 3.09 still fail to flash bootloader

OK, that didn't work, the first time I used odin 3.04 as instructed in the omega rom site on the v21 page.

This time I used odin 3.09 (see attached screen shot) and still no luck.

I have to admit, I am new to samsung, coming from htc, there is no bootloaders there.

Still no wifi and no way to access security settings and can't un-install many apps.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] arjunandrade.ciph:
Hello everyone!

My sister accidentally detached the screen of my phone because she was taking it from me. After that, we take it to the repair center (a store only in a mall) and they said that the screen is unavailable for now. The repairman suggested to take out the battery from the phone until the screen is available to order. One day I tried to turn on the phone with its battery inserted to see if it still works without the screen, I thought of the phone was still working fine because it still vibrates when you powered it on and I immediately removed the battery after doing the testing. It almost took 2-3 weeks until the phone was repaired (the screen replacement has no warranty). Then we got home and played with my phone. Suddenly, the touch screen doesn't work, I have waited for a few second then it works again. It keeps happening like that and there are times that the screen completely doesn't respond to my touches until I reboot my phone. The apps that I were using that time are responding well only the touchscreen does not responds well.

I am using a custom ROM while my phone is being repaired.

So here's my question:

Will touchscreen problem exist or occur if you didn't turn it on or use it (powered off) for a few weeks?

The phone that I'm using is Xperia Mini Pro SK17I. I have also tried other custom ROMS like CM10 and CM10.1 but it just makes my touchscreen worse.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Pixelado:
Hey there.

What a coincidence, I just went through this kind of problem. Sorry to tell you this, but the screen assembly you bought is defective and there's little you can do about it, save for flashing back to stock and hoping for the best.

I ruined my xmp's screen and had to get a replacement part. I was in a rush so I bought a new display from the first store I came across with. Result: the touch digitizer was deffective, pretty much useless on CM10.1. It worked for a few minutes, but then it stopped responding until the next reboot. Touch response was sloppy, and two-finger gestures were all messed up.

Flashing back to stock ICS helped a bit, but it was far from ideal. I had to cope with it until it finally drove me crazy and I threw it to the ground. The glass shattered, many pieces flew off from the phone. Saved enough money for another screen and I'm just fine with it. No problems even after doing exactly what you described.

Word of advice: get a new screen assembly, and flash back to stock while you're at it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] fundre:
Would you tell us how much the good assembly costs? Just for reference.

Sent from my MemoPad
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Pixelado:
I usually buy these from a local store for about $40. Check the display and touch digitizer quality before buying when possible. If you plan on buying one online, don't go for the cheapest alternative you can find, you could end up regretting it.

I'd recommend buying from "formymobile.co.uk"

Some people might not know this, but the display and touch glass on the xmp cannot be separated. This is good and bad at the same time.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] arjunandrade.ciph:
I am now dissappointed with myself because I didn't take my phone for repair to the store where I bought my phone. I have already brought my phone there before because of screen replacement too and they replace it with a good and functional one then that store move its location that was far away from us and that takes us to bring the phone in the nearest mall here in our place.

We found a store inside the mall, they fix it and TA-DAAAAA, a phone with a defective screen. And yes, the gestures are not working properly. I really love this phone but I can't take it anymore for another repair.

I am planning to buy a new phone but not a Sony Ericsson phone. I will buy a local branded phone [Cherry Mobile (Android phone) - search it on Google to see it] here in our country (Philippines). It is much cheaper but has a good quality. I am just a student so it will took me a long time to buy a new phone.

Unless my parents decides the buy me a phone because they also use my phone for playing.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] arjunandrade.ciph:
The 1st screen replacement that happened to my phone (it was the good one) costs me $77 (based on Philippine Peso to US Dollar)

While the 2nd replacement which is the bad one costs me $55

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tedmm:
Ok, I'll start by saying that I'm trying to update my rogers 1337m to a custom ROM based on 4.4. The phone came with 4.2.2 on it and the 1337MVLUAMDJ modem. Since having bought it, I rooted it with motochopper, kicked the samsung firmware to the curb, and installed jamal's 4.2.2 google edition rom.

Anyhoo, now I want to install jamal's 4.4 rom. I installed it, but the phone doesn't work. I can't make calls, mobile data isn't working, and I get no bars in the signal indicator. I restored my nandroid backup to 4.2.2 and all is well again - calls, mobile data, and signal reception.

Do I need to upgrade my modem firmware? I have the MDJ firmware, and I noticed that there's an MK6 firmware that seems to be newer. Jamal's rom actually comes with a modem, I9505XXUFNA1, but when I tried installing that with Odin, it said 'security check failed'. I'm guessing that I can only install Canadian modems?

What would be the pros/cons of flashing MK6? Does this unroot my phone? Does this lock my boot loader? I seem to recall that AT&T pushed out an update that locked their users' phones in some way. Is that what I would be in for?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
The i337m will never have a locked bootloader. AT&T was never unlocked, we only had an exploit. Updating yours will get you Knox however, i believe. There is a thread of the modems so you can flash just the modem by itself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tedmm:
I've seen knox before in my process list - when I had the samsung firmware installed, I thought knox was just an obnoxious ( obknoxious? ) policy agent for enforcing exchange rules or something. I've seen neither hide nor hair of it since I installed the google edition ROM, which of course doesn't come with knox. So you're saying the the new modem might have some knox component in it and this might cause problems?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
Well if you already had a version with knox it doesn't make a difference. It's just that the newer official firmwares have the knox enabled bootloader and it adds an extra flag beyond the normal system status that would void your warranty on flashes but if you already have it then it doesn't matter. It wouldn't cause any problems, just adds that little flag and I'm not sure if recoveries are made to not trip that flag or what.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] TLK3:
As far as I know, Knox is not part of any modem firmware. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
It isn't, flashing only the modem packages does not include knox. Using the full system ODIN or Heimdall files will include it if you update the bootloader.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Faultyy:
were you able to figure this out?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] tedmm:
Yes.

First, I don't think that it was strictly necessary to upgrade the modem to get 4.4 - I think it might have just been a problem with jamal's ROM and the kernel he used. Anyways, I decided that I wanted the new modem anyways because I reasoned that it would probably have bug fixes and performance and reception improvements. I was pretty sure that flashing the official 4.3 Rogers image (there is no 4.4 Rogers image) with Odin would give me the new modem. Then I could flash whatever aftermarket ROM I wanted.

Strangely, this didn't work. At least not the way using Odin is recommended. Odin has two text fields pointing to tar.md5 Roms - onw of them is marked 'phone' and the other is marked 'PDA'. As I recall, I had to point BOTH of these at the official Rogers 4.3 ROM get get both the Samsung/Rogers android along with the Qualcomm mk6 modem. I don't think I've ever found a how to where they recommend using both at the same time.

After that, I flashed a Google edition ROM and all is well. And the new modem does seem to get somewhat better reception.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RAND0M1ZER:
So there is no way to update just the modem from a custom ROM (without wiping everything and installing a stock ROM) for Canadian S4s?

Hi everybody!

I recently bumped into SL4A.

For automating some things (wake up and send to sleep my NAS, mount it as local drive) from my android tv box its perfect.

The things i want to automate can be done via Linux shell commands and i would like to implement these functions with a nice GUI in HTML and Javascript.

In Python you do it with os.system i believe, but the problem is, that i am a very experienced VB.net, HML and Javascript programmer, but have no clue about Python.

So is there a way to acces the Linux shell directly from javascript or do i have to write a kind of python interface to connect from javascript to the shell?
