[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] fuzzie:
I've tried upgrading to the latest.

But I get error 260.

Any idea why this is happening?

I think I have traced it to the failure to unlock. I have tried lociwiz and the unlocker in the rom update, but I don't think it's working...I never get to the bootloader screen.

I've tried entering the bootloader screen by camera + soft reeset, but no luck.

How do you tell if the CID is unlocked?

EDITED: OK, I am all wet. I thought my ROM was 1.2 stock. I was wrong.

Stock Rom: 1.8.10.2 WWE
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] fuzzie:
Finally got the CID unlocked and the bootloader screen to work, so my upgrade was successful.

I think what did it for me was removing the password from the device so it would reboot smoothly. Although, I am not positive, because I tried two different unlocking methods. (I couldn't tell which one worked, because I didn't know how to tell the phone was unlocked until I put another SIM in it, and then tried the ROM upgrade.

Great ROM and guide, by the way!

Looks like I lost the instant messenger that came with the TMO...going to try agile.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] samet10:
I just used lokiwiz02b to do CID unlock on the MDA vario.

Now I get a message "data crashes. please contact your service center"

has anybody experianced that?

what can be done?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tudorvictor:
Hello,

So far Holic's ROM seems to be the only one without in-call volume problems on my Vivid (Bell Canada) but there are two problems, one more annoying than the other

first, most annoying problem: after I install, the phone will upgrade to the latest apps like Hangouts. Everything works great, I can start hangouts and chat.

But after some time (5 to 10 minutes) of the phone just sitting there, or especially after a reboot, I will get the "google play services is not supported by your device" error. I have to remove update to google play store and resintall it, and then problem goes away temporarily and hangouts is usable again, and after the next reboot same problems reappear.

Does anyone have any fix for this?

second problem, less annoying:

On the phone dialer, there is a button at the bottom right which looks like a button for calling voicemail (has some funny symbols on it)

if I press this button I get error message "Android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly". Does anyone else have this?

My phone is S-ON

I reinstalled the rom several times. I do the full system wipe before from recovery, flash the boot image, install rom with WCX recovery, re-flash the boot image from the SD card

same problem every time.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Yuskow:
What Gapps are you installing? Have you tried different ones?

CM11 in call volume is pretty much gone since about the middle of January (if you read the thread, you'll see good feedback about it from about the 15th on). Only issue is sending/recieving MMS. Might want to give it another shot since this seem to be the only one getting worked on by the devs.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] tudorvictor:
I'm not flashing any Gapps on this, the ROM already comes with them.

This is a ROM based on 4.0.3 ICS, not kitkat

I actually tried two versions of CM11, one was the latest unofficial nightly build from february 19, and the other was the albinoman release from january 15. both have the low volume problem.

I also tried the Borked ROM, based on 4.0.3, and it has the same low call volume problem, but no other issues like hangouts not working.

What GApps should I flash for a 4.0.3 based ROM?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] NWinfuse:
You don't flash gapps on a stock based ROM ever

Workaround:

Make use of your installed/reinstalled recovery system to restore a rom or better nandroid-backup that is already as close as possible to your stock firmware. From there the kdz flasher should work (at least according to my own experience).

This backup worked for me(E986)

I would love to see that my phone is at recovery mode..but i cant access it no matter what i do..i've tried the button combination but it fails to load cwm.i already have backup of my entire system on cwm,if only there is a way to install cwm or twrp on this to access recovery.or if there is a way to force this to boot recovery,there will be no problem

Ive already tried that but keeps on getting an error after extracting the kdz file..
[LG Optimus G Pro] lg-user45:
As far i understand yiu wont to go back to stock with kdz flashing. What is the reason? You say u cant get in recovery mode, so u havent the recovery bootloop after installing freegee. Why u wont to flash back to stock? Doesnt your g pro starts?
[LG Optimus G Pro] luenboy:
No,my phone is stuck at lg logo.it wont pass that..and the reason why it is stuck is i flashed a custom kernel for lg e988..after flashing,it wont boot up..i can only access download mode..if i flash it using kdz updater,i kept on getting error extracting file..if i use lg online support,i kept getting battery level low error.if i use the tutorial how to bypass the battery low issue,im getting error after extracting kdz file..
[LG Optimus G Pro] lg-user45:
I had 2 times problems with low battery issue. I passed it only changing from Diag mode to emergency.

And also it seems to me that the kdz flashing procedure passes only randomly without battery issue. But only on emergency.

I also reinstalled all drivers to reactivate usb ports. With some patience it should pass through

Still no luck..doe anyone here knows where i can download tot file or anyone knows how to convert .kdz to .oct?

[Asus Transformer TF701] tom_mai78101:
1. Whenever I press the tablet's power button just to make it sleep (not shutting down, just sleep), the keyboard dock seems to keep the tablet awake. What can I do in order to get my tablet to sleep while the tablet is still connected to the dock?

2. There are some settings that I want to modify, such as text repeating speeds, the behaviors on holding down key buttons, find a way to "delete" words from the right of the text cursor, etc. Where can I do this?

3. Even if the keyboard dock build date is later than November 2013, but the tablet seat of the dock is still making the tablet wobbly (by a little bit), is it because I'm not seating the tablet deep enough? How deep should I push down, even after the locking mechanism is already in the locked state?

4. Are there any tutorial/guides on how to use the MobileDock keyboard? Everywhere I look in Google, it's always Reviews Reviews, and Technical Reviews.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
1. Try just closing the lid? The not sleeping issue has been an issue on other transformers as well.

2. shift + backspace = delete. No options for the text repeating speed I'm aware of.

3. Known issue - you can fix it yourself with some foam tape. Asus cannot fix it as I have found out.

4. What do you want to know?
[Asus Transformer TF701] tom_mai78101:
Anything from telling you what button does what to hotkeys in Android.

There are a few keys I don't understand, such as keys with weird symbols on it. The hotkeys is needed, because I would like to use them often.

I am not sure if common Android apps also used hotkeys optimized for tablets.
[Asus Transformer TF701] doom_71:
Mine also has this 'issue'. Also, when the tab is in deepsleep i cannot wake it using the unlock button on the dock. When i just let the tab go into standby, or whatever it is called, and immediately use the unlock button it works. When letting it stand by for a bit longer and pressing the unlock button it doesn't do anything and i have to use the powerbutto on the tab to unlock. Any possible solution for this?

[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
The Asus docks have always worked that way. Deep sleep is deep sleep - power button to wake. Otherwise it has to waste battery and cpu cycles polling the dock to see if you have pushed the unlock button.
[Asus Transformer TF701] doom_71:
Didn't know that. Then, no issues :D

[Asus Transformer TF701] tom_mai78101:
My other question is: Where can I find a list of hotkey combinations that I can use on the keyboard dock?

I only know a few shortcuts:

CTRL+C: Copy

CTRL+V: Paste

CTRL+A: Select All

CTRL+Z: Undo

One day, I hoped to see ALT keys used for inputting characters with symbols on them (like `e)
[Asus Transformer TF701] Sleeepy2:
I just got my dock today (it is a 2013.10 but no connection issues yet). My boss is making me go to the UK in April so I made him buy me a dock instead of me getting a laptop.

Any who, you can configure the the keys to do what ever you want how ever it is a lot of work to set it up.

You need to scan the codes for each key and then modify the keyboard layout.

It can be done but it is a big pain in the ass.
[Asus Transformer TF701] tom_mai78101:
Never heard of that before. Do you know how?
[Asus Transformer TF701] Sleeepy2:
I thought I better take a closer look after I opened my big mouth ;) and it is not the difficult

Attached is a key character map file that does what you specifically suggested ALT e is now mapped to `e however I think that there is a better solution that is already built into Android.

The below unicode characters are defined as dead keys in android what that means is this:

"When a dead key is typed followed by another character, the dead key and the following characters are composed. For example, when the user types a grave accent dead key followed by the letter 'a', the result is 'à'."

In the current key character map file "Generic.kcm" these are the dead keys

'\u0300': Grave accent. ALT + GRAVE

'\u0301': Acute accent. ALT + e

'\u0302': Circumflex accent. ALT + i

'\u0303': Tilde accent. ALT + SHIFT + GRAVE

'\u0308': Umlaut accent. ALT + u

For the attached unzip the file and put it in /system/usr/keychars and change the permissions.

Hopefully with the dead keys and adjusting the map, you can get all the characters that you need.

Further questions regarding special characters

Hello, thank you for providing the asuspec.kcm file. I found the link to this through http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2693602 and looked at the previous discussion in the thread to which you posted this message about the TF701T.

I am using a docked TF101 rooted with Katkiss 4.4.4 and I do not know if I can accomplish what you explain with a different model than TF701T.

I followed your instructions as best as I could understand. I put the asuspec.kcm in the location you instructed using SD Maid. I changed its permissions to be the same as those of the other .kcm files (-rw-r--r--).

I rebooted the TF101 and tried to type in special characters with the keyboard shortcuts. I believe I am missing additional steps to this process. Could you please instruct me on this matter?

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amilayajr:
Hi Guys,

Thanks for the help in advance. I just want to ask if anyone experience issues unlocking galaxy s3 mini gt-i1890L from telcel Mexico. When I put a different SIM and restarted thr phone. It only tells me "Network Lock". It doesn't show any fields to enter unlock codes. I factory reset in phone and kies as well as reload official samsung firmware and no luck. I tried entering codes to initiate unlocking but phone does not respond to any codes. I can only check imei and go tk service menu. Check the picture. Any help is greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skatie:
You said you tried entering codes to initiate unlocking (how many codes do you have) if you enter the wrong code too many times your sim will be blocked and you wont be able to use it and will have to get a code from the sim provider to unblock it.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amilayajr:
Hi there,

What I meant when I tried to initiate the unlocking sequence, I dialed these numbers and nothing works. The phone doesn't respond to any of it. I pressed the dial icon but it just says "Not registered to network". For some reason when I insert a different SIM Card and restart the phone. It comes up to a screen saying "Network Lock" and that's it. It doesn't even allow you to enter unlock codes. All you can press is "Dismiss" Like what I showed in the picture. I don't know how to enter the unlock codes anymore since the phone will not respond to any of these service menu codes but it does respond to *#197328640#.

Method #1 Insert a Non accepted SIM card in your phone and power on. Once finished loading your phone will ask you to enter a code, enter the Unlock Code

Note: Non Accepted Simcard is any simcard not from the original provider

OR

Method #2 Go to the dial screen on your phone as if you are going to make a call and press: #7465625*638*UNLOCKCODE# (8 digit unlock code)

OR

Method #3 Go to the dial screen on your phone as if you are going to make a call and press: #0111*UNLOCKCODE# (8 digit unlock code)

OR

Method #4 Go to the dial screen on your phone as if you are going to make a call and press #7465625*638*# Once prompted for code, enter the 8 digit Unlock Code.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amilayajr:
I tried these service codes as well and no luck

*#7465625# = Check the locks.

*7465625*638*Code# = Enables Network lock.

#7465625*638*Code# = Disables Network lock.

*7465625*782*Code# = Enables Subset lock.

#7465625*782*Code# = Disables Subset lock.

*7465625*77*Code# = Enables SP lock.

#7465625*77*Code# = Disables SP lock.

*7465625*27*Code# = Enables CP lock.

#7465625*27*Code# = Disables CP lock.

*7465625*746*Code# = Enables SIM lock.

#7465625*746*Code# = Disables SIM lock.

Can you start the phone with a sim from the correct network?
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amilayajr:
Yes, I tried both. I have the original Telcel SIM card and other SIM cards. The phone just doesn't respond to any of the service codes to initiate unlocking. Only message I got was "Network LOCK" and a picture of a padlock and a button that says "DISMISS"
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabrielbaca:
I am not entirely sure, but it is probably the same case as my Galaxy Ace a few years ago. Unfortunately, Telcel adds an additional lock layer that is embedded in the ROM, so any effort does no good. What I did to unlock it, was download another firmware from Sammobile that was compatible from another carrier. You may choose that path, or flashing a custom ROM. Obviously, this implies you must have root permissions enabled on your mobile device.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lglingk:
more telcel galaxy s3 minis

I have the exact same problem with the Galaxy S3 mini from Telcel. Even at professional unlocking businesses this was a problem.

Their is just no option to enter unlock codes, neither does it respond to "Method 1-4 unlock codes"

After entering *#197328640# in the keypad the options are

[1] Debug Screen

[2] Version information

[3] common

After selecting [1] debug screen, there are 8 options

[1] BASIC INFORMATION

[2] MM INFORMATION

[3] RR INFORMATION

[4] NEIGHBOR CELL

[5] GPRS INFORMATION

[6] SIM INFORMATION

[7] HANDOVER

[8] PHONE CONTROL

Phone control has 7 options

[1] DRX CONTROL

[2] FAKE SERIAL CONTROL

[3] NAS CONTROL

[4] UE STATE CONTROL

[5] SIMULATION

[6] NETWORK LOCK

[7] NETWORK CONTROL

and network lock says Not Active.

I bought a cheap $20 phone make and receive calls but if their is away to unlock this thing that would be greatly appreciated.

I would rather avoid installing customs ROMS however i can root and unroot with VROOT. So if there is some .apk that needs to be modified or something that would be a better option. If anyone can help with this issue, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks..

I also got this info at a code unlocking site.

*Note regarding Samsung Android phones:

If your phone is locked to Telcel or Claro Mexico or Claro

Worldwide, before placing your order please try inserting

a non-accepted sim card into your phone and ensure you

receive a prompt to enter the unlock code.

If you do not, you may need to either root your phone or

change to the latest North American firmware prior to

placing an order as you will not be able to enter an

unlock code until the firmware is updated.

The phone originally came with jellybean 4.1 but was updated to 4.1.2. Dont know if that has anything to do with it

So I took the 4.3 OTA (like an idiot) and Saferooted. All has worked very well. No custom ROMs etc, just few root-authorized apps (TBU etc.)

Last night in the dead of night I decided to factory reset my phone and let my wife use the phone for a bit (she is thinking about switching from her iPhone). So I backed up with TBU then wanted to back up a Nandroid with CWM. I used ROM Manager to update to the latest version of CWM then asked to reboot into recovery.

Here is where the problems begin. When the phone went to boot into recovery the phone says in small red letters 'SECURE FAIL: KERNEL'. Then in a large warning 'System software not authroized by verizon has been found on you phone. Please turn off you phone and go to the nearest Verizon Wireless store for help.'

What are my options to move forward? I saw this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2581166 but that specifically references hard bricked phones. Is that what I have?

I feel like if I could boot into the ROM I would be okay as that is stock, but the phone keeps trying to boot into recovery. Just before the unauthorized warning I see the small blue letter saying 'RECOVERY BOOTING'

I feel like an idiot. In my late night haze I totally forgot that this phone is all locked up. I have been messing about with several phones (installing ROMs and recoveries etc.) that I totally forgot that this phone does not have a custom recovery because of this exact issue.

Any advice? Thanks!
