Thanks oltp for those informations. I tried to restart the PC and run the device software update utilities but I got report of error 202 "cannot get device data". Either the screen indicating USB and V1.02 with the LED on red and the screen indicating USB and V1.02 with the LED off are the same result. I don't know what to do now. Anyone has experienced this kind of problem, please give me a guild to solve it. I look forward to hearing from you guys. Thanks in advance!

Have you tried dumping your rom on a sd-card? Maybe you still can flash it that way.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] mr_badguy:
No, I haven't. In fact, I have no idea how to do it. Could you please give me more detail about how to dump my rom on a sd-card, OLTP? Since I have nothing to lose :D , I'll give it a try.

Thanks in advance!
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] oltp:
Hi,

This is my standard description for dumping a rom on sd.

Backup is fairly simple:

- get ntrw.exe from the ftp ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Magician/Tools/Backup_tools/

- get romupdate from the same location

- get a SD-card > 64MB

- make backup of everything you want to keep from your magician & SD-card. everything will be wiped!!

- fully charge your magician

- uncheck usb connection in Act.sync on your PC

- put your magician in Bootloader (camera & power & soft-reset at the same time for a few seconds) wait till screen fades & reads 'serial v1.0x'. Screen is very dark since backlight is of.

- connect usb, now the screen reads 'usb v1.0x'

- start romupgrade on your pc

- pick the magician connection in the listbox, wces something I belief

- now a screen pops up

- type d2s in this screen

- follow progress on pc & magician

- wait till checksum finishes

- get SD from the magician & put it into a cardreader. DON'T FORMAT!!!

- put ntrw in C:\

- start a command window

- type on commandline: ntrw read myrom.nb1 [sd driveletter]:

- follow progress

- error at the end is normal

- finished

- reset your device & restore backup

- Playtime

I have actually spent some time reading all around the forum but still could not find an answer. I have installed the galaxy gear manager did the update both for the manager and the galaxy gear itself and I was so happy that the notification can now work for many 3rd party apps. I went to the other applications and check on chomp sms but everytime i receive a message, i will just get a message that i have 1 unread message and I have to tap 'show on device' to be able to read the content. I don't want to use the stock messaging because I really want to use chomp sms.

I know some people here have been successful in making the chomp sms work perfectly with their gear and I have actually sent pm to them but I still don't get any enlightenment with my case. I will really appreciate help from you guys. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] hurdlejade:
I don't use Chomp SMS, but I think it's from the same dev as Textra SMS... and textra works fine for me. Make sure you have "show message in notification" or something like this on.

So, I got in on that fabulous groupon deal and will be expecting my new note soon. I currently own the OG one, but haven't played around with root at all on it. So, once my new one gets here I want to immediately root and de-clutter. I found this nice guide here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2513532 and have a couple of questions regarding some things. First, world it be preferable to just disable apps or delete /uninstall them after making backups with titanium? What does renaming apps to .bak do? Thanks guys!!! can't wait for my new note to arrive!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] nrage23:
If you are going to root, I would just install CleanRom 2.0. Scott has done all the work for you.

Hi you can use the custom rom HAL 9000. Except SPen anything else is removed, but when needed you can install Samsung stuff via the Samsung App-Store. It's fast and less probe compared to the Samsung Software.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] benni_1994:
Personally I just disable system apps most of the time. If you are going to delete them after backing them up then you can save some storage but it is not that much (also the storage is under /system so you dont really have a profit. Renaming apps to .bak prevents them from starting as android will not be able to execute them. You could also name them ".bloat". It is used to make them not executable. Hope I was able to help you a little bit. :)

Enjoy your new tablet!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] nrage23:
I always just froze apps in Titanium. Newer devices have enough space that uninstalling does not get you much back. Renaming to .bak is basically like freezing/unistalling as the OS will not see them as installed. Which rom you would install would depend on if you are getting the wifi (CleanRom) or LTE(HAL9000) tablet.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] supremekizzle:
Thanks to both of your helpful replies. Now, when renaming or freezing the app, is it going to cease to show in the drawer? Does the file directory get moved when renaming? Thanks
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] GeorgeP:
Not only that, since the apps are in the system partition, uninstalling gives you zero back in terms of space, unless are you are changing the system partition size, which rooting does not do. In the past, I've frozen with Titanium backup. Now I just disable the the apps I don't want if I think those apps are doing things in the background I don't want. If I don't want them, but it doesn't appear they are causing any harm (e.g., don't show up on BetterBatteryStats) I will typically leave them enabled, but hide them with Apex. Apps that are are disabled/frozen/renamed don't appear in the drawer.

Hello people, I am new to HTC One which I am coming from the One X+. I have a few questions before I start flashing stuff. Okay I already got my bootloader unlocked and am about to flash twrp recovery and get SU.

My questions are:

Do I need to get S Off to flash roms?

When I flash a Rom,do I need to flash the boot.img manually?

What is an HTC dumlock and do I need it?

My hboot is 1.55

I have an AT&T One

Thanks in advance guys.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marc199:
No, you don't need s-off to flash Roms. If you want to flash GPE Roms, you need s-off though. Otherwise you'll end up in a bootloop.

You don't have to flash the boot.img manually.

HTC dumlock is described in the twrp thread and you won't need it probably.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dash_Skeezy:
Thank you much for the reply!

What's an GPE Rom?

Just one more question, I was looking to flash the viperone Rom....could I flash that Rom with s on and not having to manually flash the boot.img?

Well , those are stock android 4.4 kitkat .

We still don't know what the update will bring .

I suppose we wait to February end and see what it brings .

My best guess is that sammy will deliver the update , and the only thing that will change will be the android itself since , well , The new TW is not ready and the main new features will come along Galaxy S 5 .

We just hope for a fluid experience and all sammy features packed in a nice update , don't we ? :)

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] edo101:
Hey guys so I decide to get the SGH-147 AT&T S3 off of ebay for MetroPCS which enabled me to get a 2 year squaretrade warranty. After looking back at it now, I feel it might have been a bad idea since Metro has a MIR 349.99 deal for their S3 version which would mean easier android update since it would be on Metro servers if I'm not mistaken. Anyway I can't return the ebay phone now unless there is some software or hardware problems within 30 days

So my problem

I am stuck on 4.1.1 on Kies and when I check for update, because the phone is based on AT&T servers, it won't work since I'm on Metro. I wanted to see if there is anyway for me to update my phone to 4.3 which is the current version. Although, I've heard some people have 4.3 problems?

If that's not advisable, could y'all tell me how I could atleast get to Android 4.1.2? Also is there a 4.4 update in the works?

I just got the phone today and would like to be running on something better than 4.1.1

should I flash the AT&T phone to a MetroPCS ROM lol, if any of those are actually available, or if I were to flash, should I flash it to Tmobile?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
First off, if its I747, you MUST flash only those Roms. No others. Now, that's indeed a nice phone with LTE Antenna.

You really heard correct. The 4.3 upgrade from the carrier (ATT for you) /Samsung has a lot of issues. I wouldn't do it for any reason. Particularly on T-Mo network, you will have severe signal issues as reported by others. In addition, it now flashes an EFuse onto your phone along with locked bootloader and other scary stuff.I really would not do it.

Lastly, XDA is organized by devices. So even though you are a T-Mo/Metro PCS customer, you will have to post on AT&T SGS3 forum over there.

Speaking of Rom update, Please visit Root66 Thread for this device. You will find Rooted version of your Current Rom. Dunno why but he does not have 4.2.x for you. Please do your research someone else must have posted it.

Now speaking to 4.3, yes there is a way to get 4.3 on your phone without the issues I mentioned above. But first you will have to flash a Custom recovery such as CWM or TWRP with the help of ODIN on your phone. Again do your research well. Once those are in place, take a look at this thread. It will provide 4.3 experience without ANY concerns or issues. Read it carefully and then read some more. Good Luck.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] edo101:
THANK YOU! Looks like I got a lot of phone work to do over the weekend. SO do you think it was good/should I stick with this AT&T S3 or should I try to sell it for a discount and buy a Metro PCS S3? The ebay buyer won't take my phone back unless there is a hardware or software problem inherent to phone...unless I fake one ?:confused:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
If it was me, I'd keep the phone. Metro's S3 does not have LTE Antenna. You'd have been stuck at lower speeds.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
Metro's s3 does have lte

As for the OP you can flash at&t or T-Mobile ROMs it really doesn't matter because they are backwards compatible (I have done it) and you can flash 4.3 ROMs if you don't want to take the official 4.3 update which you can easily do with Odin without the need for kies or ota.. Now, I suggest the first thing you do is flash a custom recovery and then experiment with 4.3 ROMs, if you keep having problems flash 4.1.2 roms.. There are some things you need to do though to get 4.3 up and running so I suggest you read up on it first. Good luck my friend!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Perseus:
It was my impression he wanted Stock Touchwiz Roms not AOSP.

Thanks for letting me know Metro has T999L
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
I did mean touchwiz ROMs.. And the metro model is t999n which is pretty much a t999l

Hello everyone,

This Thread is not supposed to be some offtopic discussion or flaming etc.

I'm creating this thread because alot of people have to those issues, which results in spam in every dev-thread.

So why not create a seperate thread for exactly this issue? It might even help the developers find the cause.

If you don't have this issue, DON'T POST. SAYING "I DON'T HAVE ANY ISSUES, EVERYTHING IS FINE" DOES NOT HELP ANY ONE.

Anyway, let's begin :

If you've been using 4.4 on your G2, then you're probably familiar with the screen of death bug.

What exactly is this?

Well, since the first CM11 nightly there has been the following issue : When doing random things on your phone (let's say write a message), the phone would start to "slow down", "lag", " get sluggish". Whatever you want to call it. When you scroll up and down, it feels like using a single core device from 2010 with 800 mhz. Switching between apps causes the animation to stutter and be choppy (looks like 15-20 FPS?). Now, if you turn the display off and on again, everything's fine again. If you don't switch the display off, you'll get the screen of death (complete freeze of the phone, sometimes sound keeps playing and vibration works). If you now try to switch off the display, it will eventually unfreeze. I couldn't figure out the exactly how long it takes to freeze, but it seems like a 10 seconds.

Now why is this such a big problem ?

As you can imagine, there are situations where such a freeze is the last thing you want to happen (I understand that 4.4 is not completely ready, but some roms are being considered totally stable...which is clearly not the case). I have a lot of respect for every dev working on this device and i don't want to tell anyone what to do BUT i feel like this issue has not been getting the attention it should.

Because it happens on every KK Roms (PA, CM, Mahdi, Vanir etc.) it's even worse. Some people advice to disable TB, SuperSU Notifications, raise voltages etc. but that doesn't help.

So what can we do about it?

Probably nothing. But we can post our setups. When and how it happens. Which Roms is being used. What Kernel and so on to give the devs atleast a bit of insight.

So please use this form :

I would think that logcats and/or information like what speed the CPU is at, are there heavy CPU using apps, etc would be useful.

All probably needing adb and USB, so might invalidate the issue, but might be useful.

And BTW OP, don't be so quick to be dismissive when people post suggestions. Some root apps are known to cause slow-downs (100% cpu usage)

Here's the thing : It happens even when you freshly install a kitkat rom. Nothing installed but the rom itself. I also went ahead and disabled root. Same result. It's obvious that some apps cause 100% usage, but completely slowing down the phone and even freezing it is NOT normal behaviour. The fact alone that it doesn't happen on stock or CM 10.2 should give away that something is wrong. I don't want to offend, piss off or hurt anybody but i would like to see this sorted out eventually, or find a good workaround.

[G2 General] Koopa777:
Now don't hold me to this, but I installed SlimKat 2.4 on LS980, and had no freezes or lags. So I thought "Huh, wonder why?" Then I realized that I never enabled root via Dev Options, as it's disabled by default. I enabled root, and I had some minor freezes. For the past week, no ROM(not just SlimKat) has ever lagged while I had root explicitly blocked via the Dev Options. So at the moment I enable root just to do what I need to do(TB, Adaway, ROM tweaks, etc.) then disable root again. I could be(and probably am) wrong though. Just some food for thought.

[G2 General] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
I think the biggest issue with this is that it is so random. There's no way to purposely replicate it and it never seems to repeat itself in the same scenarios. Sometimes it happens when I'm unlocking my phone. Sometimes when I hit the back or home button. Sometimes when I open an app. Sometimes when I'm making a call.

My only guess is that it has something to do with transitions. Whenever the screen is changing something is the only pattern I can see.
[G2 General] Ltilt2:
I think it only affects certain devices. Been running Mokee with zero sods or freezes. Of course I use my phone only to make calls, texts and emails. No games or social networking sites.
[G2 General] droidphile:
Firstly, I think this thread should be moved to Q&A section. Anyhow, I also have this freezing issue since long. Kmesg tells that the GPU composer crashed. Apparently the hw composer crashes randomly during an app open animation, keyboard popping animation, or portrait to landscape transition.
[G2 General] xI mEzMeRiZe Ix:
Matches up quite well with my experience. An animation/transition is always involved.

[G2 General] ckyy:
Guess we're onto something. I've also managed to get into trickster while it was lagging shortly before it froze. The CPU usage was totally fine, clock speeds and cores were acting normal aswell. So it's probably a GPU issue. Is there a way to observe GPU clock speeds, voltage etc. ?
