[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] VolcanicSkunk:
The reason you get the "adb is not a recognized command" is because you don't have the Android Software Development Kit (SDK) installed. The SDK contains an executable command called Android Debug Bridge (adb). You can download and install it from the developer.android.com website. But chances are, you aren't going to have the drivers installed for your computer to recognize your phone in recovery if you don't have the SDK already installed.

If you aren't familiar with Linux, then I would say that going with that route is far more work than you're likely to want to put in to get your phone functioning.

If you'd like to try it though:

Linux is free to use, it is designed and compiled by several different companies. The more well known are: Ubuntu, Mint, Red Hat, and Backtrack. There are many more.

You can visit any of those sites, download the software, and install it on a USB drive. It usually requires a 4GB USB drive. Instructions to install it to a USB drive are usually listed on the site.

After installing it, you can boot your computer from the USB and use Linux like a fully functioning OS right from the USB drive. You won't be required to install it.

You can then try downloading the ROM while on Linux and transferring it to your sd card.

Sidenote:

Linux is an open source operating system on which Android is based. That is why Android is open source, it is ruled by the same GNU General Public License that governs Linux.

Sounds like I'm screwed then. I don't know why my pc is not seeing it now, because it always sees it when I'm copying files from & to it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] VolcanicSkunk:
Have you tried going to your computer's device manager and seeing if it's picking it up, but just has an error?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
When I insert it, and go to that, it shows up as removable disk E, but when I double click on it, it says to insert a disk into removable disk E. I think whats happening is that it's seeing the adapter, but not the card that's in it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] VolcanicSkunk:
When you right-click on the E:/ do you have the option to format the drive? If so, you may want to try formatting it. That may fix your issue. Hopefully you don't have anything on the external sd that you can't put back on it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
When I try that, it tells me there's no disk in drive E, to insert a disk and try again.

This happened to me to after I installed the latest s3rx Rom...I haven't been able to recover my data or get anything to read my card.

After researching online a lot of people have had success running the chkdsk command... check it out here

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
Ok, under Device Manager, the computer does see the phone as "MTP". I tried the troubleshooting process, and it went all the way through its thing, but at the end it said "failed" trying to install drivers. I just installed the proper drivers earlier today from Samsung, so I know they are correct. Also, this is as I am connected to the phone, not the card reader. The phone itself is flashing the Samsung logo, and that's as far as it has gone.

This is so frustrating because all I need to do is to get a rom onto the card. If I can get that, I can get into recovery and straighten this all out.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
Anyone else with any ideas? I'm beginning to go a bit nuts thinking I have lost my phone just because I can't get a rom placed on my card.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
Flash twrp or cwm, they have options to mount SD card, after that you can copy the zip and flash
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Kamau54:
I have the latest twrp, and have seen that option. You mean, I can copy from the pc to the card, because that's what I need to do.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] beerindex:
A while back, I was having issues with random reboots, so I restored from an old backup and then updated the baseband. That was about a month and a half to two months ago. Everything was going fine, until about four or five days ago.

Now, the problems I've been having are:

Random reboots

The menu and back buttons disappear when the screen is off, but occasionally light up when the screen is off

The battery is draining at about twice the previous rate

The screen has gotten dimmer, or at least seems to have. This despite it still being set to maximum brightness as it was before.

For reference, what I'm running:

Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 (SPH-L720)

Android: 4.2.2

Kernel version: KT 3.4.56

Rom: SACS_Custom v4.x

Baseband version: L720VPUAMJA

Build number: JDQ39.L720VPUAMF9

Recovery: TWRP 2.6.3.0

SELinux status: Permissive

Root: CF-Autoroot

Now, I don't recall installing any new apps, so I wouldn't assume I installed a rogue app. So what do I do, especially realizing that this supposedly good backup, that was working perfectly for a while, now appears to be having these problems?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] leaderbuilder:
Try a new battery!

I've seen issues like this happen on this and other devices. If the battery is going it will jackup all kinds of things.

OR

You could do a full and total wipe and install again - always a good idea. Doing that and spending a couple hours settingup/tweaking to your liking can save you WAY more time than chasing gremlins for days.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] beerindex:
I am using a Zerolemon battery, so I've just swapped that out for the stock, and am going to watch its behavior for the day. Hopefully that solves it (although I'd be a bit miffed, since I don't want to have to buy a new extended capacity, and I can't go back to the standard one). If not, I guess I will do a factory reset. But when you say install again, I assume you mean a fresh rom, not an old backup?

I need to know how to put together a pure AOSP 4.4.2 ROM, my build environment has been collecting dust and I've only just updated the build tools. Can someone tell me what repositories I have to sync and what the make/build command is for this device? Cheers.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] fawkiPhone:
#1: I Odin back to MJ4 from the 4.4.2 leak. I was rooted but now I'm not. Since Knox is 0x1 will it stay custom status instead of normal. Also

[Q] #2: Anyone else Note 3 not remembering passwords when phone is rebooted?

- I seen a thread open about it a while ago... Searched for a good 15 minutes through Google and xda. Couldn't find it for nada..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
Since you went back to stock MJ4 unrooted, you'll need to reinject root using the chainfire method.

After that, you'll need to flash TWRP recovery for MJ4 (see Original Development forum, TWRP thread for latest version), and flash via PC Odin (tar file) or device (IMG file via an app like Flashify). That takes care of recovery and root.

Next is to get a rom from the development forum that suits your tastes, and flash it in recovery. Follow the OP directions for the chosen rom, and have at it. Make sure to grab a TouchWiz rom for these instructions. If you go the AOSP route, your recovery may be different, so read up on that please. You'll find instructions for the proper recovery to use in the thread for that rom.

Your device status with many of the roms will have been tricked to show official, but it will not be the case. Your ability to get over the updates from Sprint is gone, just as an FYI.

Many kernels exist, most from freeza. Those will give Selinux permissive on boot, some of them are baked into the rom, some are not. Check the OP for reference.

As to your question about passwords, I'm unclear as to the specifics of your meaning to provide an response. If you mean WiFi, play store, your Google account, those should work after you've set your phone, with or without root.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

now,that there is a german rom i want to change my rom to this...

at this time, i have installed the 1.62 with german language-pack ...

is this possible in any way ?

if not,how can i do a full backup of my system including the doc ?

thank you
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] Shrek3k:
as there are lots of settings - of which some (!) might be migrated - which one are you talking about? :)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] nice:
the files,the pim,the registry .. and the rest
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] Shrek3k:
As long as you do not change the OS AND keep the size of the RAM-disk you have a good chance to migrate all data.

When you are changing the OS OR the size of the RAM-disk ... seems to be nearly impossible. I have updated a ROM and changed the size of the RAM-disk and only succeded in restoring the data with sunnysoft by hand (all important one woithout a problem: PIM, other database etc.).

But - logically - all programs (formerly installed onto the RAMDisk) and their settings did not work any longer.

Hope this helps, best regards

:) Shrek

P.S.: Possibly the new version of Sprite BackUp might help, as they say, that the newest version is able to restore data after an update :shock: ! (can´t comment, as I am only using Sunnysoft and SPB Backup)
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] nice:
the ramdisk shouldnt be the problem ...

i want to change it - but only from not present to present ...

everithing,i want to migrate is on the doc (and on the sd ;) )

do you think,the data stays,if i only update the rom without deleting the doc ?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] Shrek3k:
When you are updating the ROM the whole "System memory"/ "Main memory" will be erased and formated (!!)... everything else (which only is the SD-Card :?) will not be touched at all.

This means: you have to (at least) copy every document from the "main/ system memory" to the SD-Card - the most reliable solution for this task is a backup program, because you won´t be able (at least my experience) to copy the system data base (as PIM, etc.) by hand. My recommendations: SKTools, Sunnysoft BackupManager or SPB Backup (little bit more complicated to select the files manually, as you have to decompress the backup-exe-file on you PC).

(Just to be sure: what do you mean with "doc" - auf Deutsch? :) )

Schönen Gruß

doc ist die disk-on-chip ...

ich sollte letztens für jemanden sein rom neuflashen und habe dabei vergessen,beim "hardreset",also in dem menu,wo man die 3 punkte hat,die sachen einzustellen ... bei ihm hat sich nichts geändert - daher gehe ich davon aus,dass beim flashen der doc nicht gelöscht wird - erst danach(oder sollte man es davor machen? ) manuell

das wäre ne machbare lösung - nur würd ich gern wissen,ob die settings angenommen werden - ich hab fast die ahnung,dass das dann mit dem deutsch-patch rumzickt,welchen ich auf der 1.62wwe habe

aber es ist gut zu wissen,dass es mittlerweile funktionierende back-up-programme gibt ... ich mach einfach vorher mit jedem einzelnen ein backup :lol:

but that wont help with the registry and the today-screen
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading] Rudegar:
the registry may not be such a good idear to take along with you

one of the differences between roms is also regitry

if you take the registry from one version to another you may very well end up with a malfunctioning device

much like you would if you took it with you from one versions of pc windows to another

not sure about pda registry editors

but in regs on pc's you can export it to a a text reg file you can run on another to add the regitry

and today screen depend on 2 things registry and

and installed programs

to get the programs installed you can just click add remove programs in AS

to get programs installed using AS installed on the new device

[General Questions and Answers] HW_SF:
HI all,

This is my first thread on this forum.

I bought a used Motorola XOOM 2 ME 8.2 inch also know as XYBOARD mz 609 in US.

The tablet had a faulty Micro USB port so I had to change it.

The unsoldering of the port from the PCB was very difficult and I ended up by tearing 2 of the 5 pads used buy the female SMD micro usb type B socket.

Basically I lost VCC and Data - pins.

I attached a pic with the actual state of the PCB pins an one with the USB pins for micro usb

I manged to recover the VCC pin by scarping the insulation of the PCB board but I couldn't find any wayt to get to the DATA - pins.

I'm not interested in using the usb port for data transfer I just want to be able to charge the tablet via micro usb port.

But I encountered another issue. After connecting VCC and Ground to an 5 volts charger the devide won't charge at all.

I did this test with other devices (an LG e 730 Android phone and an Alcatel ) I own and all started charging just by applying a 5v tension on Vcc and Ground pins.

I read about the 2 micro usb charging standards (shortened DATA + and DATA -, or 200 Ohm resistor between them) but since my DATA - is missing I'm not able to do this. Instead I linked DATA + to ground. When doing this the device signaled charging but not actually charging happened. I measured with a miliampermetre and the current absorbed by the device was fluctuating between 200 mA and 700 mA (I used a 700 mA Ac charger)

Is there any way I can trick my device into charging by missing this DATA - pin in my charger.

Any help would be welcomed.
[General Questions and Answers] HW_SF:
I also thought at another fix.

Is there any way I can link a charger directly. to battery + and- using a Li Po charging module.

hello guys

I have a sm-n900.....it came upgraded to kitkat in the box

although the performance of the phone is mind blowing but I feel it is a battery draimer......and also I read reviews on net that people with jellybean used to have their battery last more than one day with usual udage but in my case it is only upto 16-17 hrs

I thought of downgrading to jellybean and went to service cemtre where they told me that downgrading in not possible in note 3

I then searched at home and found it is bit complicated and if we do we may loose update to kitkat if we want afterwards

like in my earlier s2 (i9100) and note (n7000) I could flash any firmware anytime

but wat to do downgrade this to jellybean without loosing the possibilities of update to kitkat

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
You need to do some searching on the site. All these questions have answers that have been gone over and over.

Early 4.3 users could root their phone but Knox gets tripped. RDLV method worked then without tripping Knox up till MJ3 of 4.3. Anything above that as stock and Knox gets tripped. KitKat goes one step further in that you cannot revert to 4.3 at all, even if you are willing to trip Knox.

You can root the phone but AFAIK (I haven't bothered with KK - my phone runs brilliantly on v6 (4.3) Omega) you trip Knox anyway you do it.

Knox 0x1 may or may not doom your warranty - somecountries have laws that say Samsung cannot quirm out of hardware problems by claiming software changes. You may or may not care about Knox. Mine is a grey import from HK that I had all kinds of fun getting over to a non-freaky ROM, so when it eventually triggered Knox I didn't give a toss. I did root the phone with RDLV and changed ROMs several times before something that shouldn't have, tripped the Knox bit.

Now there is about as brief a history as you will get. Use what is in it to go search and find any more complete answers.

Always search before asking basic questions - at the least it means you will be able to ask intelligent questions, not ones you can find by looking at the titles of recent posts in Q&A forums.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
They'd just boot to Download mode and see the Knox flag.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Journyman16:
You should be able to use another mode. When you connect via USB, swipe down the Notification bar and there should be a Notify there you can tap to choose other modes.

You might need to go into Build Number (Settings/About Phone) and tap 7 times to turn on Developer mode and then turn on USB Debug. (not sure as that's always one of the first things I do)

Unless you are the only person on the planet who sees a need for Knox, you don't need to DL anything to do with Knox. Check in Application Manager and see if you can turn all of it off.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrHRH:
Interesting question. Do you find you can easily sell your rooted/modified phones?

I'm always concerned that people won't want to buy a rooted phone that's potentially been flashed 100+ times with possible excessive CPU over-clocking etc. I always try to put the phone back to stock (or as close as possible) before I sell it on.

Is it just me who feels those concerns?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:
Well, in my region, the vast majority of buyers don't even know what root is, so it's never been an issue for me. I don't expect that to change anytime soon. The Note 3 doesn't show any issues at all when reflashed unless Knox flag is tripped. Even then, the only "issue" is the warranty bit flag shown in Download mode and the loss of Knox container, which almost nobody uses. Out of a 100 buyers, you might find one that knows what root is and less than that who know how to get to Download mode, and even fewer who'd potentially use Knox, so no, not a problem.
