Can I use this rom on Alpine?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cjranucci:
I am running the latest CM nightly. The system states that I am out of memory. When I go into Settings > Storage and refresh, it shows several GB available. I can't install any more apps. I deleted all of the apps I know longer use. I had about 600 pictures in my gallery. Since I sync with Dropbox and Google+, I deleted all of those as well. I changed my email retention from 7 days to 3. I cleared the app data of all apps.

Still getting this strange problem. I looked and there were a ton of strange log files in /data/system. They were RS_01.log, RS_02.log, etc, all the way to RS_90.log. Each log file was about 910 bytes. I deleted all of them in root explorer and rebooted. Same problem.

I can factory reset and reinstall CM, but want to see if there is a fix first. Found online people saying to dial *#9900# and deleting a log file, but dialing that number does not open a menu. Might be due to the fact that I have a later bootloader (M2), or that I am running CM.

Ideas?

Give lucky patcher a try. There's an option to odex system files which frees up int storage
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cjranucci:
I can't install any apps. Android is throwing an error, not enough system space to install whenever I try to install anything. This has to be some sort of runaway log. I found references to dumpstate logs causing this problem, but they are all in /data/log. I don't have that directory on CM11. Not sure where to look.

Go into your time tool box and set apps to sd to auto. :) having it set on ext sd messed ours up too. Easy fix for us. Hope it helps.

Clock face says no weather info.

When I click it it tells me change the setting to use current location in the gear manager which i DO have configured but it still does not recognize a city.

When I go to the weather app on the watch it says no City.

Any Ideas?

You have to have the Samsung Accuweather installed on your actual phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] steelthunder100:
Thank you. I got it. It needs the default weather app which I had turned off.

I turned it on and it now works.

Hello,

When ever I download a firmware file it comes as one file, e.g.: I9505XXUBMGA_I9505ITVBMH1_I9505XXUBMGA_HOME.tar.md5

When I put it in Odin (AP) I get a Fail(Auth) error. However, when I try to install a firmware that is divided into separate files, e.g.:

AP_I9505XXUFNA5_373648_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar

BL_I9505XXUFNA5_373648_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar

CP_I9505XXUFNA5_373648_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar

CSC_OXA_I9505OXAFNA5_373648_REV06_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar

The flashing procedure succeeds, I use the same cable and the same USB port.

What could be the cause?

Ived seen a few people saying you can downgrade your phone into 4.3 by using mobile odin pro...So do this at your own Risk. And Sammobile released another kitkat leak 4.4.2 FNAD firmware today so you might wanna check that out . And im sure Samsung will release the Official kitkat firmware soon .

I have another question. The reason I opened this thread is because i'm having reception issues for quite some time.

I changed to a different carrier today, the device cannot connect to the new carrier, I also changed to the new firmware

you just mentioned, still nothing.

Should I try to flash a different modem? if so, which of the modems are compatible with this version of firmware?

Thanks

If your having a bad signal or data drop issues then download/flash any different modem from here and you can check the modem from here that base from your country/Provider :) Im using a kitkat leak as well with a 4.3 modem such as NAA ;)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] poo1009:
Hi guy,

Now, I'am using XDA Neo with the latest dopod rom, and enjoy it very much.

I always connect the internet via WLAN at my home and sometime at hotspot in public.

I found a problem, when the signal of access point is low or none my neo try to connect GPRS automatically!!!

I don't want it to be connected and don't want to delete the GPRS setting cause sometime I wanna use it in somewhere that doesn't have a hotspot.

Is it possible to do it: when I surf the internet via WLAN no matter the signal low or none, the GPRS would not be connected?

Thanks guy
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Jayxz:
Hey, I don't know if this works for you but whenever I connect to the Internet via Wifi I turn off the phone function. I'm not sure if this is a solution for you because as you might be aware you can't receive calls anymore. :wink:

If there is a more eloquent solution to this I'd be very much interested too.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] searley:
Go Start>Settings Then connections tab

Click Connections Icon then the 'Advanced' button

Click 'Select Networks' then in the Top drop down selection boc " programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using'

change this to either 'My Isp' or 'My Work Network'

'My Isp' is what i use, as this has no connection set under it

then if you have no wifi access gprs can not connect

when you wish to use gprs do the above, except select whatever you connection was originally and gprs will work again
[HTC Sensation] kaesekopf:
Hi everyone,

I am trying to get my HTC Sensation 4G able to be used on the ATT network temporarily (I have a new ATT phone that needs to get fixed).

I have an HTC Sensation 4G, onto which I have put a custom ROM. The custom ROM is 11-20131230-Sultan-pyramid. The kernel is 3.0.101-Sultan-kernel-ION-r49, Sultan #1, Mon Dec 30 2013.

My phone is also "LOCKED", S-off, Hboot -1.27.0000

The ATT sim card is also really tiny, I think it is the nano SIM card. I am 90% sure I have it positioned properly on the Sensation's contacts.

Can anyone help me out? :)

It's the most useful program since sliced bread, with it you can:

- hold your softkeys to open start menu and ok/close

- actually close your applications (instead of minimizing)

- use the d-pad in phone app to see speed dial and recent calls (like wm2003)

- overclock you PPC with omapclock without messing with notifications etc

- use volume slider to move page up/page down

- have an intercourse with every woman/man you like by pressing a button (well, this feature is currently being developed; at the moment you can only attract elderly and ugly women)

WARNING: Only works with firmwares under 4.3!

Since Kingo has now replied and the IMEI issues have been resolved, here is my tutorial on how to get root privileges on your Xperia Z safely and even more important easily! No need to worry about bricking now ;) I will also post an alternative method that is just as easy!

So, here we go:

1. Download this file here: http://goo.gl/AIUANa

2. Install it on your computer (you can remove it later)

3. Open the installed program

4. Connect the phone to the computer

5. Go in settings and in developer options and then enable USB debugging

6. Click on ROOT!

7. The phone will now reboot, ROOTED! You are welcome! Please thanks if it helped!

Alternative method(10% more difficult). The only problem is that this is chinese language, so you have to click the exact buttons I tell you.

1. Download this file: http://goo.gl/U6Jwaf

2. Install the software, using the installation buttons as you would on any other windows installation.

3. When you have installed it, you will see a green button, press it. Then connect your phone on USB debugging mode.

4. When the phone is connected the software will recognise the phone and the green button will show "ROOT", click on it.

5. The phone is going to be rooted in some seconds and the process is finished when it will show a tick on the software.

6. The phone will reboot.

7. When it is rebooted, go to google play and download super su.

8. Open super su and it will ask you to update the binaries, and you must click on update, and then normal.

9. A window in chinese will pop up on the phone, this is the screen that allows you to give root permissions to any app. You must click the button on the right.

10. You are done! Root process is complete!

11. This is the most important step. Leave a thanks! If you liked the tutorial, please show it to me!

Post below if you have questions or don't understand!

[Xperia Z General] vikash1994b:
Can we root 4.3 rom with this method
[Xperia Z General] aristide1997:
Kingo isn't able to root 4.3 as of now, but all the older ones yes. Try the second method.

To go back to 4.2, please use this:

https://app.box.com/s/pnqhi5o9tqg1fv7uxunf

Contains the instructions to go back.
[Xperia Z General] kingvortex:
Or use this tool by trusted developer bin4ry that will root the same firmware versions (.67 and older) and doesn't need an internet connection to root your device - Root many Android
[Xperia Z General] aristide1997:
Yeah but you need to have adb tools installed right?
[Xperia Z General] kingvortex:
No, unless Bin4ry removed them from the tool since I last used it (unlikely).

Even if you did, it's preferable to use it over Kingo/Vroot that both send hardware IDs to China as part of the process. Security and transparency should not be sacrificed for ease of use.

Before you give me the usual line that Kingo doesn't collect anything, I suggest you look on their official Facebook page. They admit they collect various data from your device. Look at the images they posted on 7th November 2013, where they state that they collect hardware IDs and serial numbers.

Also, they were caught modifying open source software for their tool and only admitted that once caught.

Anyway, their tool is nothing but a collection of other people's work passed off as their own and nobody on a development site such as this should be recommending use of software created by bottom feeders like that.
[Xperia Z General] aristide1997:
Yes i believe you. I still posted both methods so people can chose the one they want, and if they want to root it, hey, it's there and it's easy. Personally, I used the second one (which is even more risky than kingo since it's chinese) and nothing happenes to my phone, and I did that back in september 2013.

So for now everyone is safe!

There is currently no way to root 4.3 directly without unlocking the bootloader.

Android 4.3 Easyrooting toolkit on 10.4.1.B.0.101 Sony C6603

Hi,

My first post on XDA, ...twas inevitable. Apologies if this isn't exactly in the right spot but here we go.

Easyrooting toolkit worked perfect for me on Xperia Z at 4.2.2. and of cause lost root when upgraded to 4.3. (Which I like its improvements).

So I am ready to do it again, but steady she goes, by the looks must have the right version of Doomlords awesome toolkit first. From what I can see after doing much searching, is that V18 is the latest version and it seems to be for version 10.3.1.A.2.67 So the question is, either the version I need for my 10.4.1.B.0.101 build, is out there and I can't find it, or one of the previous versions will work on it like V18 and I need confirmation, or I simply need to wait for say V19, which possibly would cover it.

Does anyone have any info on this as I would muchly apperciate it?

Thankx

Will my phone have the same performance as before if I root because I have heard that phones get block or become buggy or slower in performance?

Will my phone be same as I bought it with android 4.1.2 (no battery problem when I bought it) if I don't change any administrative system?
