You don't need to back it up, once you flash the new rom, open up Titanium and it should as you to keep the same ID or use a new one, just pick "use the same ID"
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blindguyinanorgy:
You do actually. You must back up "Settings Storage". This may be automatic for you if you do system data; I do not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
You are incorrect. I do not back up system storage. I get prompted Every time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blindguyinanorgy:
You may not realise that you do. Do you have the paid or free version? That might make a difference.

In the paid version: I only back up user apps so I dont cause issues when I swap ROMs. I went to restore identity and there was no back up. I went and manually backed up the two Settings Storage, and a identity back up was available.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wh1t3Rose:
Very strange. I have the paid version. I'm consider myself a pretty advanced user of TiBu. Have had it a few years and I have several complex filters combined with schedules setup. I would know if I was backing up Settings Storage :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
Sandman-007 is correct, even if you backup the entire system app (ID included), after you flash a rom, it change the ID, so when you open Tibu, its going to prompt the user either to keep the old ID or using the new ID. At this time, just chose the old ID and done. If you only do dirty flash then it's OK, but if you do a full wipe then you need to restore the ID.

Hey, I'm not sure if I'm in the right place but I'll try it.

Some screenshots of Dash Clock show a dividing horizontal line between the clock and the extensions and some don't. How do I enable this? Because I don't seem to be able to!

I'm running 4.3 slimbean on galaxy s2 with the latest version of Dash Clock and Nova laucher.

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wintrmte:
Hello,

I just got a new Note 3 from the AT&T store and when they brought it out I asked them why it wasn't in the typical Samsung packaging. It was in an AT&T packaging box. Everything was sealed up, etc.

I asked why and they said it was brand new phone but that Samsung doesn't always send the phones in the same packaging.

Seemed pretty strange to me and am worried I got some kind of refurb phone.

Has anyone else seen this before?

As with the Note 2, ATT striped out the samsung box and headphones and used their ugly box instead. I was able to complain to an online chat CSR and got a $30 credit for the missing headphones...YMMV

Great thanks for the reply!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Solarenemy68:
Mine came in the orange and white AT&T box from Amazon. It did not have headphones however. Those are an accessory according to them.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theorioles33:
Its complete BS that they take out the head phones.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eagle0042:
And stole our awesome wooden box. Getting a cool box is part of the experience. A plain white and orange one covered in at&t's logo does not cause much excitement.

But then again, as much crap as at&t put on this phone, at least the box makes it obvious who sent the thing.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theorioles33:
The box was wooden? Thats cool. Why would they do that? Next thing you know they will take our charger along with the headphones.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raduque:
AT&T has been repackaging phones for about 5 years now. My Galaxy S II came in that stupid ugly orange and white box.

It's such a shame AT&T has to rape the packaging. When I got my Note III in store, I took the cable, charger, books and told the girl to burn that stupid ugly box and told the manager of the store to kick it up the chain that they need to stop ****ing with the packaging. Not in those words of course.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ReggieSmith:
Just my opinion, but who REALLY cares about the box? Do you have some sort of trophy wall with all the boxes for your phones? (Or is this just something else to complain about?)

BTW, I suspect they tell Samsung at the factory to keep the box and put them in the replacement. With the number that they order it has to cut down on cost a little and shipping weight as well. You don't honestly think they have people at the warehouse unboxing all those phones and then putting them into the generic boxes (and labeling them with all the correct imei info), do you?

But again, this is my personal opinion. I choose to save the outrage for something that truly matters like why I can't find a decent case that properly fits over my wireless charging back? And can I get the back cover in purple?!? :D:thumbup:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roundtableprez:
I wish our phones would have come with the box and headphones. It's just another way at&t gets over on their customers. And by its not a trophy thing. Every android device I've purchased came in a cool box. Then the first at&t phone I buy I get robbed for my headphones and my box lol
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattMJB0188:
I think its absolutely ridiculous a corporation as large as AT&T eliminates the Samsung box and samsung earphones. I do not see how this would cost them more money to include the headphones. T-Mobile and Sprint include the earphones and original box. Go figure.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naiku:
I don't really care about the box all that much, but not getting the headphones is pretty crappy of AT&T. I ordered an S4 for my wife at the same time as my Note 3 and hers came in the Samsung box with brand new headphones. It makes no sense that AT&T decided my Note 3 should not get headphones, while the S4 does.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Asxetos:
I had the same problem with a German T-mobile MDA PRO from Ebay and first think i did was to try and change the language.

First attempt went wrong and the phone would not turn on, but i flashed it again and all was OK.

I think the fault is the way you flash it. I discovered you must follow some important steps.

If the upgrade is a standalone file you must extract the firmware files in a directory like C:\flash (using winrar for example) where you can do the following:

1. Find MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and later use it to flash, DO NOT USE ROMUpgradeUt.exe.

2. Edit RUU.conf and add [CHECKCEID_TYPE]=1 at the end.

3. Put the phone in bootloader mode (bootloader mode is where it shows usb on top and v1.0 at the bottom, so your phone is allready there)

4. connect usb cable (do not use a usb hub, plug directly on the computer).

5. Run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe, and ----VERY IMPORTANT---- after the first screen when it displays the firmware version you are about to flash (it does not detect the version on the phone) WAIT 10 SECONDS. Then press continue, and wait for 20 minutes until it finishes.

Hope you make it...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Hoyos:
Just yesterday i noticed that my phones screen was bugging out, eg. if it bumped into something or set down on a hard surface the screen would

flicker, similar to static, but only for a second. later that day, the screen went black, i thought the battery was low and did a quick battery pull

and it booted up normally. it happened again an hour or two later the, black screen that is. when i got home i really noticed the static as it was

placed on hard surfaces: the table, desk, etc. since it was low on battery i plugged it in to charge for a bit, when i came back to tun it on i was able

when when the screen timed out i wasn't able to turn it back on, i tried the battery pull but nothing, At that point the boot animations wouldn't show

the only things that indicated that the phone was turning on was the notification light and the pouch buttons. when it is "on" i'm able to swipe to

unlock, hold down and get the feedback of when you want to move an app or widget. The phone is on but the screen is black. oh and when i try

to go into recovery or download mode the screen is still black,

im wondering if its a busted screen but the thing is there are no cracks or anything on the screen maybe a few minor scratches but that's it

truthfully, i haven't a clue, but i can guess, if you are talking storage wise, around 3-5 gigs.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edielynne:
First of all my initial problem was solved after much research. My Coby Kyros MID1125 was stuck on the fastboot menu and my computer wouldn't recognize it. I downloaded a recovery img file and quickimg and put it in the image folder, my pc finally recognized my tablet and said "connected". Great, so I clicked partitioned to flash and there were two button options "boot" or "flash" along with a selection of 1. BOOT 2. SYSTEM 3. USER DATA and 4. CACHE. ....I left it on the boot selection and clicked the "boot" and it came up to the clockwork recovery. I wasn't sure which option to push so I pushed "wipe factory date/ reset". It reset itself but again it won't load to home screen. The furthest it will boot is the Android logo. I have a recovery image installed on sdcard in sd slot and my tablet was rooted. I also have abd tools installed but was unable to access my tablet. Any ideas on where to go when it boots into clockwork recovery? I'll need a step by step....TIA!!!

Is the notification bar settings app for CM an APK that I can save? I have to switch back to TW but love that feature.

On a related now is the notification bar settings app for TW an APK I can remove or a process I can disable?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blindguyinanorgy:
is this one that should be on the developer forum?

[Android General] tatsel74:
This could be my next phone, but I've read about the battery problems, do you think is the same on all variations of this phone? mlais for example?

Or maybe OEM versions have a cheaper battery? Please let us know the battery test results with the new firmware.

three more questions:

1. is there a multicolored notification led?

2. on this phone, what are the file transfer speeds using the usb 3.0 connector and cable?

3. found it at antelife, is it a good price or did you get it cheaper somewhere else?

thank you very much!
[Android General] Chinaphonearena:
We got this phone from 1949deal.com. Don't always go with cheapest, 1949deal.com has a decent price ($295), and with the coupon code, it's $285 (coupon: 1949dealh9008). I always recommend going with the shop that has treated you right, as long as the prices are somewhat similar.

I will do FULL battery tests on this phone.
[Android General] tatsel74:
thx for the answers, I'm waiting for the full review and that coupon ;)
[Android General] Chinaphonearena:
In answer to the first question. I've seen green, red, blue in the LED. Haven't seen other colors yet, but haven't tried for any either.

Rooted already. I will put root method in OP in about an hour. Making full stock backup now (baseband, radio files, system). Will get it uploaded tonight.

I was just playing with a real Note 3 half an hour ago.I tested all buttons on the real Note 3, looked at the plastic trim around the side. Pressed the volume buttons. Pressed the home button. The 'play' and feel was the same. If anything, the H9008 feels more solid in the hand than the real Note 3.
[Android General] tatsel74:
geeez, so tempted to buy right now.... hahaha, your battery tests will close the deal.

thank you once more.

In another subject, do you think mediatek would allow this current generation to be upgraded to the latest android version? Chinese phone development is so fast that SO upgrades are non existent.
[Android General] Chinaphonearena:
It's possible, but I doubt it. I will be surprised if it sees true stock 4.3 or 4.4.

If another similar (MT6592 1080p) phone with 4.3 or 4.4 comes out, we may see some good ports in the future.

And if LeWa / MIUI for MT6592 4.3 or 4.4 comes, again it's a relatively easy port for a decent developer.
[Android General] Chinaphonearena:
Added CWM 5.5.0.4 to OP
[Android General] Chinaphonearena:
Added Carliv Touch CWM 6.0.4.4. EMMC, sd-card, data - all mounting fine.
[Android General] Chinaphonearena:
After several mishaps and bricks. We've finally figured out the deal. This phone is an OEM Mlais MX69T Pro http://www.mlais.com/mx69tPro.html, but seemingly without the NFC and the TD-SCDMA. We've flashed the latest firmware from 18-FEB-2014 and everything so far tested is working the same as H9008 stock firmware. The wallpaper, sounds and everything are the exact same as H9008 as well.

Unless you want to have a lot of fun reflashing and soft-bricking, we recommend you don't fool with MX69 (without the T) Pro firmware. The scatters are nowhere near the same. We tried flashing with scatters from stock H9008 firmware and with the original scatter that came with the ROM. There was no success with MX69 Pro firmware.

MX69T went off without a hitch though.

We'll try and have a first thoughts video up later today. So far, it's nothin' but good. :)
[Android General] tatsel74:
thx for the information, your conclusions keep me one step from pulling the trigger for this phone.
[Android General] Chinaphonearena:
There were several slightly nervous moments when the phone didn't turn on at all. But we went back to work and tried several different times (10 flashes or so all together) with different methods and tools until we determined it's definitely not MX69 Pro 'standard', but 'definitely' is OEM MX69T Pro....The firmware updates have been coming out regularly for the phone as well (see previous Needrom link). A very good sign.
[Android General] EvangelineX:
What is this brand mobile phone?
[Android General] tatsel74:
As chinaphonearena says, it is " This phone is an OEM Mlais MX69T Pro" So its a Mlais.

Different H9008 versions?

Are there different versions of the H9008 on the market?

I checked a couple of shops and found H9008 phones with different specs. The main difference is the front camera. Some list the camera as 5MP, other as 8MP and some as 13MP.

If the H9008 is a full OEM version of the Mlais MX69T Pro, then the front camera should be 13MP.

Another question which is bugging me:

What's the aperture of the rear camera on the H9008? The original Mlais has an aperture of f2.0. I couldn't find any information on the H9008 camera.

Hey, i got a kindle fire hd 8.9 lte, been trying a few ROMS but none of them gave me a working mobile network, so i found this BAM 2.0 kitkat ROM made for my tablet, jemlte, but after doing the flash nornally (with wipes) i get stuck on Orange kindle logo, i was able to fix this and get back to TWRP, and flashed cm11 again (working fine but its not lte). Also tried to install jem version and had the same issue, so i guess im doing something wrong or missing some step.

I would like to install this BAM rom, but after all the research, i just found some posts saying that after flashing BAM 2.0 you need to flash cm11 kernel, but i cant find it.

How can i get this kernel? I tried to get it from Haschode´s cm11 version but with no success, any help or instructions will be appreciated.

Link to BAM rom :

goo.im/devs/BAM/jemlte
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
The kernel is the boot.img in the zip file you flash for cm11. To be more precise, the boot.img is the kernel + intramfs. I don't deal much with ROMs outside the one I'm trying to port so can't be of much more help than that as I don't know the specific instructions for putting bam together like you say you are doing.

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Yea he hasn't gotten lte running yet, think the reason was he needs a lte device to kinda test out changes on so he can get it working and he doesn't have one.

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
Try running this from an adb shell, just make sure to unmount /data first:

mke2fs -T ext4 /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/userdata

That should wipe selinux xattrib's from the use data partition, its basically a better way of doing an internal storage wipe. If it works then we know it was a simple selinux issue.

hey, been very busy and looking forward to try this, but i have a noob question, how do i unmount /data? been trying but with no success

[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stunts513:
ah my bad i forgot to post the command before that:

umount /data
mke2fs -T ext4 /dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/userdata

or you can just unmount it in twrp by unchecking the partition under the mount menu(i think its the mount menu, don't have my kindle in front of me for reference)

aw nope it didnt work... had my hope there hehe

after i flash i get stuck in kindle orange logo, have to flash recovery and boot etc from fastboot, then re install cm11.
