8125 Official ROM Update

ROM is slated for release Monday. Someone at Cingular posted the links late today as they figured it was the weekend, and no-one uses computers outside of working hours.

So hang tight.

i made a nandroid backup and saved it because there was some problem with my phone and it was being replaced... so now i'm trying to restore that backup on my new device...but nothing is showing on the restore screen in recovery...is it because backup is from different phone(same model different handset) ??

[Sprint LG Optimus G] Shaagan:
Hello everybody!

I just got this cellphone and this is what happened so far.

After I got it (brand new), I rooted, unlock it bootloader and install a custom recovery so I can start installing Roms and stuffs.

First thing I remember when I was on stock rom, its the awful battery life, that's actually the reason that made me swap roms.

I started to read every popular thread about LG LS970 roms and the one that caught my attention was Carbon 4.3. It was great, didnt like many of the animations and stuffs that included, but it was smoother and batter life was awesome.

The problem is that at that time, my DATA wasnt configured yet. I tryied many things but I noticed that many of the hidden menu that used to work on STOCK ROM, didnt work at this rom CM based. After some reading I realized that it was because of CM.

So I got back to STOCK and then sent my cellphone so it will get its data configured.

Now my cellphone can use 3G and stuffs, all nice, gps, mms, signal, everything working flawlessly.

My only issue is that now Im back on this horrible battery life. No wakelocks and anything, I learnt about that using other cellphones.

And Im using the same apps that I was using with Carbon rom when I was getting exellent battery life.

So my questions are these:

I dont know how to configure data, and this cost me a few bucks. Is there a way to get back to Carbon ROM without losing this cofiguration? Or will that get wiped off with everything else?

Is there a way to backup/restore this specific data? So I can swap ROMS and get back everything else?

By the way, I live in Dominican Republic, the PRL I use is 30122, I can update PRL easily with the tools provided around here, but couldnt figure out how to edit apn or whatever option was needed to edit to make DATA works. And the guy I paid it for, did it in only 20 mins. Couldnt see how he did, I just noticed that he needed DIAG mode to do it.

I know a few settings like APN (lte.tricom.net), MCC and MCN and stuffs like that but I think there's something else to it.

Also I was wondering if I can connect my cellphone to CDMA Workshop and read it, will that display whatever this guy did to my cellphone? Maybe I can copy everything and then setup myself.

Too many things and I dont know what should I do.

Thanks in advance for any tips/advices/insights.

P.S.: IF there's any kernel, thing, whatever that one can install on stock rom to improve or make it work (batter life) like Carbon rom, then I'll do it. I dont care much about roms, I like some features, but its the battery life the thing I care the most.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCDreamOn:
[MENTION=3341976]DannyDrama[/MENTION] are you using a custom ROM? If so, which one (can you provide a link)? Not to insult your intelligence but are you absolutely sure you haven't installed an app to display the battery? It's quite easy to do this accidentally.... just check through downloaded apps in settings and also in Play Store to make sure. Otherwise it's probably a ROM feature.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DannyDrama:
Yeah I've looked everywhere, cached apps and everything. Nothing battery related installed anywhere. I even uninstalled Xposed and all modules.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] batlefield:
Hello!

I was trying to root my samsung galaxs s4 active (GT-I9295). I installed usb drivera and used odin 3.07 and cwm v1-2(CWM-Recovery-gt-i9295_v1-2.tar.md5). I turned my phone off and back on with volume down pressed and then confirmed with volume up, after that I plugged in usb cable(original one) and launched odin with administrative rights. In odin I clicked PDA and added the downloaded .tar.md5 file, then I pressed start and it flashed the file on the phone and rebooted the phone. After the phone booted and asked me for pin a popup showed saying couldn't download, try again later. To make myself sure I restarted my phone with volume up being pressed and it opened android recovery, not cwm. I tried the same thing on multiple pcs and usb ports(I even tried on linux but didn't get far because as it seems heimdall doesn't accept .tar.md5 :(). I even tried using another cwm image(recovery_6.0.4.7.tar.md5).

Does anyone have an Idea what could be causing this?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 5657508:
Try a different cable, try a different version of Odin (3.08 is the one I used). Can you better describe what happens when you boot now? Does it boot to your ROM normally or do you get a black screen or does it boot loop, etc.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] batlefield:
I will try and use another cable(the one I used to flash nexus 7), I already tried using other versions of odin but results were the same. After flashing I can boot normally there is no bootloop or black screen or anything like that, the only problem is that i cant get into cwm - when I try to (power + volume up) it doesn't put me into cwm recovery but it puts me in stock android system recovery. It also seems like that odin does something since when I go to ota update menu it says device was changed and when I go in download mode it says im using custom something, I can't really remember now :-/ but i think it says custom firmware and custom bootloader(don't take me for granted on that!). So yeah the only problem is a) cwm isn't installed or b) im too stupid to get into cwm :P

But before when I was stock and even when I was rooted and stock I could consistently get 3 bars sometimes 4, also this is on 3G at my work and home.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] meschle:
Probably the best is sprite backup www.spritesoftware.com because it has a facility to backup and restore when doing a rom upgrade.

Next there is spb backup that does not have above feature but you can do a partial backup with custom options.

Or do a manual backup

Create backup of windows\start menu - most programs that are on the storage card dont need a reinstall.

Create copy of pim.vol in the root directory of the device - contains contact and appt information. After flash change the new pim.vol to pim.vo and copy and paste old pim.vol (use total commander or gsfinder file explorers for this) and soft reset and you will have info back.

Create backup of windows\favorites - for all your internet favorites.

You can backup your voice tag database between hard resets by copying the file CommandModel1.bin found under the windows folder to your pc or to the memory card. After rom upgrade copy it back to your windows folder and all your voice tags are back!

That will make restore a bit quicker than otherwise.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kyphur:
Back-up your data but backup your software is a waste if you are upgrading the OS Rom.

What I do is have most of my programs installed on SD Card. I use iLauncher so I have created a folder on my storage card "\Program Files\Shortcuts" and use sub-folders for each tab in iLauncher to store my shortcuts.

I export my config settings from iLauncher & PocketBreeze, saving them to my storage card.

Using spb back-up I will back-up PIM Data.

Now after Rom Flash I just have to install the few device installed programs (InClose, PocketBreeze, iLauncher, SmartsKeys, MS Voice Command).

I then import the previously saved config files for PocketBreeze and iLauncher.

Finally, I install cab files with my registry settings for previously installed programs and registry hacks.

Bingo, less work same great functionality...

Yup, the app does enable you to send uncompressed mms, amongst a host of other features.

Some use it as their daily driver for mms instead of the stock app.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] yneill:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] micmars:
Hangouts does not compress mms. The default and only setting is to send mms as-is, uncompressed further by the app. On your end, it's going out in whatever compression was originally in the file (jpg, &c).

Link for ROM - http://xdaforums.com/xperia-u/sola-development/rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-11-0-t2627210

however i cannot find ringtones. i have tried full wipe but i still have same problem - i could get the ring tones on the build (11.03.2014) but not any recent ones.

Please refer the attached screenshots and advise.

Except this everything else works fine on this ROM.

Thank you.

[General Questions and Answers] Steve Thackery:
Hi,

After installing a custom ROM, the IMEI reported by Android is different from the one on the sticker under the battery.

I believe the IMEI is somewhere in the 'efs' folder, but where exactly? There are all sorts of files and folders in that folder.

There is even a folder called 'imei', but it contains just one file called 'mps-code.dat', and that is only three bytes long, which isn't enough to contain the 15-digit IMEI.

Can anyone help?

Thanks,

Steve

(Phone is Samsung Galaxy Note 2 GT-N7100)
[General Questions and Answers] eatsleep:
It's inside the efs folder in the root of your phone.

Backing it up eh?
[General Questions and Answers] Steve Thackery:
No, my phone stopped working and I think it's because the IMEI has got corrupted when I was messing with various custom ROMs - it no longer matches the sticker. I want to figure out a way to fix it - I can't bear the thought that I've just bricked a fine phone that I paid good money for.

Where in the efs folder? There are loads of files and folders in there.

Thanks,

Steve
[General Questions and Answers] eatsleep:
Wait wait,

You can't text or connect to the network?

Try flashing a official firmware and see if the IMEI matches...

It's not that simple to modify your IMEI n.o, special softwares are required to do this.... It's stored in .nv_data

Don't you have any efs backups?

IMEI getting corrupt is seen many times in s3 and note 2 devices....

And also, modifying your iMEi is illegal, but people out there use a software to do it.... May not be good to discuss this software here...

And one more thing, does your phone shows a generic IMEI number when you dial *#06* ?
[General Questions and Answers] Steve Thackery:
Thanks for replying, eatsleep. That's right - the whole phone works fine. It will see all the mobile networks in my area, and will register itself on mine (O2-UK). The only thing that doesn't work is voice telephony, SMS, and mobile data.

Yeah, I've done that. No good, I'm afraid.

Here I must admit to being a bloody fool. I didn't know what I was doing and messed about stupidly in CWM, mounting and unmounting, deleting, reformatting, and so on. Basically I was trying to follow several guides at the same time, and made a total mess of it.

And no, I didn't know about backing up the efs before I started.

Not a generic one. It's really weird, because it's almost but not quite the same:

Sticker inside phone:

xxxxxx05861xxx3

*#06#:

xxxxxx05681xxx1

The ...86... has reversed to ...68... and the final 3 has become 1.

I'm an idiot and furious with myself.

Thanks again for any help you can give, though.

Steve
[General Questions and Answers] Steve Thackery:
Wow! I've just seen how much it costs to buy that eight-tentacled device who's name shall not be mentioned.

$135 makes poor sense if it's only going to be used once. Perhaps the best idea is to check my local phone repairers until I find one who has the device?

Steve
[General Questions and Answers] Steve Thackery:
Bumpety bump just this once:

Any chance of correcting the IMEI myself?

[General Questions and Answers] eatsleep:
Hey babe..... please remove both of your IMEIs from here and never post them again in public. I'll post back in some time.... and your IMEI looks quite fine to me but still, lemme look for some time

And, your phone is not bricked, you've just got a bad IMEI
[General Questions and Answers] Steve Thackery:
Thank you for replying! I've edited my post to remove the IMEI, as requested. Perhaps you could alter the one where you quote my message?

I realise everyone must say this, but I'm genuinely not trying to do anything questionable or immoral. I just want to restore the IMEI so it's the same as the one on the sticker.

Thanks,

Steve
[General Questions and Answers] eatsleep:
Can't find some content for your device but please do one last precaution before following any more tutorials, backup your efs folder and place it in a safe place.......

If you don't find anything, I can provide you with some guides for s3 (my device ;) ) but don't know if they'll work for you....

One advice, reset your phone and send it to any service center.... They may charge you if you are out of warranty.....

here is a random thread i found but I have a bad feeling about the person.... Carry on at your own risk but back up your current efs, it may be recoverable but can move to a unrecoverable state after some repair attempts so, we can have hope....

Thank you again, eatsleep! I really appreciate your continuing help.

I've gone about as deeply into this as I think I can, without trying even more bits of dodgy software from around the web which might make the situation worse. So, I think my next step should be to take it to a reputable service centre on a no-fix-no-fee basis. If they can't fix it either, then I'll regard it as a write-off and - on the grounds that there is nothing to lose - I'll have one last go with anything/everything I can find on the net.

Whatever the outcome I will report back so that others can benefit from my mistakes! :)

Thanks everyone who tried so hard to help - have a good weekend.

[General Questions and Answers] eatsleep:
Yeah, samsung can definitely help you, but again, be sure to make a backup of current efs to get back if situation gets worse!

And if you fail, then we can try some softwares out there, which might me improper to discuss here, but leave that for only when everything fails....

Time to send it back to Samsung for a new board. That's if they have one. Other then that you can try flashing a compete stock rom but normally that doesn't happen.

You learned a lesson. Never restore a backup from a different device.

Without an IMEI/EFS backup that was created before doing this, you're not gonna find much of a solution for restoring the device.
