Well, I finally decided to get rid of the stock ROM and go with this one. Hopefully this ROM fits my needs. Will give feedback once I have test drive it a couple days...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] drizze99:
How do you take screen shots with this ROM? Holding the power button + center button does not work....

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] drizze99:
Well, my test drive was cut shorter than expected. As a whole I really liked the ROM and it's simplicity but chrome kept crashing and then freezing my phone. A hard boot was necessary to gain function back. Also a must have app (CBS Fantasy Football) would not work at all for whatever reason. It immediately crashed after tapping on the icon. I did a full wipe and re-installed everything again but had the same issues.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bthorne79:
Chrome is a Google issue I use it all the time with no issues and the cbs might have a issue with 4.4.4 or non stock roms

Deal Breaker

I think I have found a deal breaker, and am unsure if anyone else has this problem, or it is just a bug.

Even though I enabled advanced power options in the developer options (actually it was already checked), I still only get 2 options, power off and airplane mode, not even a restart option...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bthorne79:
[MENTION=847666]ihateu3[/MENTION] Not a deal breaker did you look in the tentacles setting
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ihateu3:
I was looking all over in the rom for a rom specific app or settings, I could not find it. So I just went to my apps and see no "tentacles setting" or anything else that looks like I could use to change settings specific to the rom.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bthorne79:
Its in the quick setting tiles also under build date has been there for quite some time did you read OP(yes a little dated but still tells how to get to hidden tentacles setting even a video)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bthorne79:
That tile is there when you flash rom we added it because everyone never reads OP of where the custom setting are at
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ihateu3:
Ok, thanks, I was looking under apps for it. Any chance that there is a "reboot to recovery" option that I am just not finding?

Wowsa!

Woot kitkat for S3!

I got the download finished and see that it says "d2lte" I have a tmobile sgh-t999 S3 non lte, is it Safe to flash still? [didn't see anything posted re: T999 vs T999l]

Also all of the gapps links are dead/broken , the one on teamocto url is a blank page with lots of ad's...? but no d/l link

Does tethering work? [again didn't see it posted]

is there a prefered baseband/radio?

is there a prefered kernel?

is v4.3 bootloader ok?

I currently have s3 v4.3 tw rom [doc's/enewman]

After I can grab all the files I cant wait to flash this.

Thank you for the work!

:):good::)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bthorne79:
Your good to go this is an AOSP based rom not touch wiz the d2lte is because its a unified build for all d2's. Yes tether works most bootloader/baseband work if your on a 4.3 one no issues, kernels we ask you stick with the one in the rom due to the optimization done with the rom. As for the gapps we pulled the package due to being out dated your fine with any gapps pack you pick for the 4.4.X I suggest PA gapps

Hello, i have a blu advance 4.0 phone, and i wanted to install gravity box but i need to backup my device before doing anhthing but CWM or TWRP arent compatible with this phone.

[General Questions and Answers] stavrosdav:
Hello guys. It's ma first time writing a post. Sorry if it's not the right place for it. So here's my story:

I am from Greece. I bought a note 3 sm-n9005 LTE. It came with 4.3 jelly. After I rooted with the wrong way messing up with the knox warranty. 0×1. I have no problem with that.

A few days ago cause I couldn't wait for the official kitkat, I flashed woth odin XXUEBN4 but from France XEF. everything seems to work fine.

Should I have to flash anything else more?

Was bad flashing another country's rom??

Later I was curious what will happen if I flash the GERMAN ROM. I had problems cause a message came PROBLEM WITH THE FIRMWARE UPGRADE. then I flashed again the XEF ( FRANCE) one.

How to root? I used cf auto root but when I tried to turn it on there was a problem with the recovery. So I flashed again the France rom again. Now I am OK.

Where is my mistake?

Waiting for your worthing answers

Thanks

Steve!

Hi guys,

Bear with me, I'm not too hot on WiFi!

Bought a Safecom card, installed drivers and utilities but can't connect to my network.

I've disabled the security on my router temporarily, but when I scan for available networks on the provided utility, it doesn't find it!

Any pointers folks?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] bleugh:
make sure your router is set to DHCP

and that the MAC address filter allows the thing to connect

wifi is a bit of a pain on the M500, but all I do is pop the card out, then back in, it turns on and auto scans for networks

have you tried the 'sample app' application that comes with the card?, that allows you to scan for networks
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] burnso:
Set the router up to allow access to the Jam by inputting the MAC address given by the Safecom utility thing.

Saved those settings then removed and reinstated the card but to no avail. Still sees no networks when rescanning with the Safecom app.

The card just blinks every so often (green LED) when scanning but never finds my network.

Regards to all!

Another brick I know... :(

I tried to install TeamWin, found this post on htcmania com showthread.php?t=591253.

Anyway on step 4. Ejecuta windows.bat the install-script I mess up recovery.img I suppose.

When I Power ON phone, I got this message:

Image signature verify fail!

Your boot/recovery image may have an incorrect signature.

...

Only have access to famous "Pink screen", tried many of update.app but every time it fails.

Also, is it necessary to unlock bootloader for this update.app, or to do something else, because it keeps fail on every firmware for G510 and Y300 that I try by now? I'm newbie to this, so sorry if is this stupid question (which I guess it is).

Is there any solution for this, any suggestions guys? Please, I'm close to breakdown.

----

Almost sure that I'm doing something wrong, tried these ROMs below (maybe some other also, but I wrote these in note later) and same error "Fail" .

B165

B166

B173

B178

B189

Anyone with idea?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1grouchy:
I manage somehow (friend bought at same time) to find out potential ROM version, B195.

Googled for it, but no success by now.

To be specific: V100R001C00B195

Does someone have a link maybe?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1grouchy:
Have a friend who works in phone service. They have an original ROM and he Flash it.

So for the future people who have same problem, here is explanation which I found on net:

"FAIL VERIFY IMAGE SIGNATURE":

The explanation is that the original recovery has a function to install zips with a particular firm, in this case should be Huawei.

However, almost all the ROMS officers who have taken both individual operators and Huawei for this phone have been format Update.app, installable using the "Firmware installer" phone and all had considerable weight.

But there have been some cases in which any operator like Orange Spain, used a zip supplied via OTA (like Update.app ) weighing approximately 90 MB (A minor update) whose function is to update the compilation B179 to B195, and what happens with this update zip format, is that the system makes a brief signature verification bootloader and the recovery and boot.img.

If the system detects that the Bootloader, the recovery or boot.img not have the original signature of Huawei or have been inserted through a hack or the like without having unlocked the bootloader officially, we will automatically display the following message after trying to install "Image Verify signature fail" in red letters.

The reason is surely and as I said before, we have unlocked the bootloader by an unofficial method or change some of those partitions by some hack before installing the zip, and this zip file contains the bootloader, recovery and boot.img because of their small weight, ie, is not able to replace him as the Update.app to return to the originals and leave us avoid this error signature verification.

A Update.app Bootloader completely regenerates us, so they used to solve 90% of problems. In this case we have no salvation unless there is a compilation format've tried installing Update.app or higher, and all other Update.app will Fail in the installation.

In the case of Orange model no Update.app the B195 is no compilation or compilation superior format Update.app , so we must take the SAT to have it fixed, and of course, do as we do not know what happened if we submit to third grade.

Solution is to find adequate ROM and flash with it. Mine was as I mention V100R001C00B195 and on net I can't find that one, so phone service was my destiny. Hope someone else will have more luck.

Regards!

Hi,

as above, the same problem with my sons G510. He has a Huawei G510-0100 phone, with a 4.1.1 Android, Vodafone (European)version.

I'd try to flash TWRP to install a custom ROM, but the phone now shows only that the image/recovery signature is invalid. The phone doesn't starts, can't enter in fastboot or recovery mode, but I can acces the pink screen. Thats all, the phone is stucked there.

How can I repare this halfbricked device?

(PS.

From Huawei's webpage I downloaded the factory G510-0200 Kernel (3.4.0 version, .rar file).

My phone is G510-0100 version.)

Solved.

I had the same problem. I installed custom recovery and I woke up with error "Your boot/recovery image may have an incorect signature" bla, bla, bla.

How solved I? Simple.

You must reflash stock rom for your Huawei Ascend G510 (0100, 0200 or 0251). If not know your version? Don't wory. Download and flash everyone version until result is ok.

First off, thanks to all the devs and helpful individuals keeping this tablet going.

Current setup is a 32gb TP running this ROM installed using Flintman's TWRP. the TP is running extremely well.

However, I have noticed something that is contributing to the SOD episodes.

I had Mighty Text installed and everytime I got a message the TP would go into SOD. I uninstalled Mighty Text and the problem went away for a while.

Today I missed a phone call and the caller left a message (my phone is set up with Google Voicemail). When the message notification sounded the TP made a strange sound. When I checked it, it had fallen into the SOD.

I tested it and sure enough it was repeatable.

I have not reverted back to the phones voice mail to see if that solves the problem. I will test and report back.

Has anyone else experienced this?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Grommish:
The last time we thought of rushing a release and by-passing the testers,it didn't turn out very well. Luckily I was the first to run it because I soft-bricked my S4 ;c) We will typically run the releases on our personal devices (where applicable) before even our Testers get it. If something bad is going to happen (and it easily can), we'd rather take the bullet than someone else.

That being said, Richard and Scott are working hard to get an update out. The fact they are the only S3 device owners (and even then, they don't use them as a primary) means its slow going. The testers are great, but when it comes down to methodically changing piece by piece to fix an error, there is only so much we can ask of them.
