I noticed that if you try to update Google Cloud Print from play store, it shows a package signature error.

This fix should work on Google Play Edition based ROMs for international GT-I9505.

To resolve this issue you must:

Have root permissions

Install some file explorer like Root Browser (free from Playstore)

Open File Explorer and delete this file: "CloudPrint.apk" (resident in this path: / system / app)

Reboot your device

Install normally the Cloud Print from Play store LINK HERE

Reboot again your device

Hi Friends This Is Thread Very Important Indian Users And Other Sony Xperia Users

Most Of The Indian Users used China Manufacture,Because China Produced Very Poor Camera Performance and Touch Very Bad Performance,

First I Buy Xperia Z C6602 In India INR 35,000 Rupees , I Not Satisfied With Camera and Touch And More Problems Water resistant Problems Leaks ,

Therefore I am going Import From Other Country That Model Having Supportable LTE Network and Amazing Camera Performance And No Water Resistant Problems , That Mobile Seller Says Your Mobile Xperia Z is Imported from SG (Singapore).I Buyied in Ebay

So How to Find Correct Manufacturing Country My mobile????????
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattgirv:
India or not, all Xperia Z models are assembled in China as far as I know. If you're having issues with your touch screen/camera, I'd try a factory reset and RMA it if your faults still continue.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajaganesan7:
It's Not a Correct Answer

It's Nearest For Indian Users For Made in China,But My Friend Purchased xperia Z in Thailand ,I saw in box MADE IN THAILAND
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattgirv:
Hence me saying 'as far as I know'. I've never seen anything from Sony or from anyone with a legitimate device that pointed to it being manufactured anywhere other than China. Though whether or not they are manufactured elsewhere is a moot point, just because it was manufactured in China has nothing to do with your touch screen or camera being faulty.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
Indeed. My UK unbranded handset was manufactured in China. Zero issues with it in the year I've had it.

Hello,

I have one Cubot One and the phone is amazing, but I think the camera is the worst thing in the phone.

The Cubot One have a Sony IMX111 rear camera that is the same in the Nexus 4 and other equipments. But the Nexus 4 images is much better than the Cubot!!! The Cubot images are very granulated... I think that it is a software problem (maybe autofocus problem no?!) so I ask if is possible to fix this problem? I try many camera apps, including a lenovo super camera app, but the result is the same: very granulated images... I think that the kernel would be changed. Is possible use nexus 4 as a guide?

Anyone with Cubot One have a green halo when use the flash?

Thanks ;)

I guess I don't get this. Everyone who buys an HTC, Samsung, LG or Sony want straight android to run on it. Now those with Google phones want another manufacturers overlay. ;)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crachel:
yep.. 5 years ago, "porting" these features to phones they didn't belong on made sense. people spent a lot of time doing it. but now that most carriers are saturated with Samsung, HTC, LG, Sony, basically you name it and that's not even to mention unlocked devices, it does seem like an oddity and a complete waste of time

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GUGUITOMTG4:
AS HTC has not comparable chipset to the Nexus5 and Kitkat is new on the HTC One, That makes it harder to port it.

Also it seems like there's not interest to work on that.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yyz71:
I don't get either:confused:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfu11:
I get it, just because something is hard doesn't mean it shouldn't be done.

There are some neat manufacturer features which would make our phones better, example Wifi Calling.

The code for that has been released for a long time yet it's not something google wants to approach.

Nexus 5 isn't pure android it's pure Google with it's own custom launcher so with that why not add some other neat features and launchers why let google control what this phone should be?

This phone was made to be a developer phone so why not develop it to it's fullest potential I'm running a rom based off Nexus 7 KVT49L that's loaded with features. It's not from this site and when someone mentioned this rom the post was deleted. That just seems closed minded and hinders development in my opinion. Luckily I saw the post and checked out the rom.

Think how pissed the manufacturers would be if all their cool features could be incorporated on one phone.

One last thing just because someone has a different opinion than yours doesn't make it wrong.

Peace

Im not sure if its just a setting in Pacman rom or what but root is not being recognized by the system. I say the system because everything else seems to work fine. Su is in the bin folder, superuser apk is installed properly. I have BMM installed as well, and it can successfully install root to the system, once in the system it doesnt work at all. Developer options are checked APP and ADB, adb su works fine over usb. I feel like im missing something. Id rather not switch away i love the features but i may need to at this point if i cant get it working right.

Thanks

Nevermind, I think I figured it out. Used BMM to install SU when the rom already had it installed. My bad XD
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raahilkulshreshtha:
Hi Guys,

Im a new user here, but have been using the site for firmwares for ages. This place is awesome.

Can someone help me with this?

I recently got a note3 4G from UAE (Damam) to india. Its really awesome, except for the lack of firmware updates.

Hence, the fiddler in me thought i should just go ahead and try oin a new firmware.

Previously, i was 'fiddling' with the galaxy s3, which seemed easy enough, but with the Note3, there seems to be a massive divide between regions and firmware versions. I wouldn't want tot do anything that might take away features like the 2K video recording and what not.

I am also getting quite sick of the phone heating up because of some process using the camera (mm-camera-daemon).

Hence, i figured, it might have been fixed in the Kitkat update.

Can anyone direct me as to how i can go about finding the right firmware for my phone, and if i will still recieve OTA updates after an Odin flash (Possibly from another regions firmware).

Thanks a lot!

Keep up the great work!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raahilkulshreshtha:
No one? Really?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] celderic:
I am currently running the BTU NB7 Stock Rom from sammobile.com, this would give you region updates from btu, the uk.

Just flash it via odin the same as you would have done on your s3. :)

Edit: your device is the N9005, correct?

Also, if you update to Kitkat, you cannot downgrade back to JB.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raahilkulshreshtha:
Thank you very much celderic.

Finally some real answers. Much appreciated.

What are the differences between the various regions by the way? Is it only the language packs? Could you confirm if this update is safe for me, my AP right now ends with MJ7 (UAE).

Also, i've been reading some bad press about the new update. Would you recommend updating anyway? And will the camera still shoot at 2K?

Edit: Been reading a lot about knox. my warranty is already void, so do i need to worry about it? Also, what are the pros and cons of using a custom rom (like omega) and why arent you using them. I want to switch to 4.4 more so for the Ok Google wake up command - will work wonders in my car.

Thanks!!!!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] celderic:
Aslong as you only flash official packages from samsung via odin, your knox will remain at 0x0, but as soon as you flash a custom recovery for example, it will go to 0x1 like mine has.

Yes the camera is fine at 4k, i rarely use it though thr file size is too big for me :)

The CSC code mainly determines where it will get the updates from, my phone was bought as a BTU device, when kitkat first came out i flashed the polish XEO firmware, no problems with it :)

I am using my own modified version of stock instead of other peoples work, i just didnt like the themes some of the other roms had, and i noticed lots of tiny bugs. Just little things that made me want to put together something for my own use. But ofcourse my phone is rooted and i have no warranty, knox 0x1

I hope this helps :) feel free to ask if you need any more information.

Edit: i didnt realise you said your knox is already void, i would suggest flashing the stock nb7 btu rom, or even nc2 of another region. To update the modem and bootloader, then flash the latest TWRP recovery, then flash alexndrs latest nc2 rom in recovery :) it is pre rooted. And when installing from recovery you can set your CSC during the install.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raahilkulshreshtha:
Ok, i get it. You seem very wise on these matters. And kudos on the modified ROM, i would love to do the same if i knew how.

Let me take you though the full story, and then you can advise me on what i should do.

I live in India. A friend of mine bought the note3 for me from the UAE (Damam). He was told that he would have to use it with a uae local sim card for a few days there to 'unlock' it, after which, he could use it anywhere (Seriously, is that the best you can do Samsung?). Anyway, he did so, and all worked perfectly. I am using it just fine (more than just fine, its awesome) here in India. Also, since i am not in the UAE, warranty is void. Thats why i mentioned the knox bit since it seems that it will makes no difference to my life.

Now, there are couple of things which are bugging me with the update.

1) Regional differences - what are the differences. Apart from the CSC, the PDA files also seem to be named differently. Why?

2) Is 4.4 really worth it (Since downgrading is an impossibility after that)? I've heard battery life issues and what not. Are you facing these issues as well? Currently, on 4.3, im not having any battery problems, but some process called mm-camera-daemon keeps heating up the camera area on the phone. I was considering buying a portable mini fire extinguisher a few weeks back, but then i thought i might look silly carrying it around :) I was also hoping that the "Ok Google" command works, but am not clear if samsung has allowed it over sVoice.

3) If i update, will my phone get Sim locked again?

4) Custom Roms - Will i be able to come back to the official roms later if required and recieve OTA updates?

5) Modem and bootloader - I am in india anyway, so the existing modem doesnt apply to me anyway (even though it works). Still fine?

Thanks again!

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raahilkulshreshtha:
Also, how do i backup the efs without rooting it first? or is it safe for me to just go ahead with a odin update to official 4.4.2?

EDIT:

Alright! Just to keep you updated, i did it!

used the UK BTU firmware you provided and flashed with odin, whilst holding tightly onto my chair.

Booted up, android is upgrading nonsense... etc etc.All working fine.

However, the "Ok Google" command doesnt work, i've read up everywhere about what to do, but nothing i do will make it work, works when the screen is on the lockscreen though.

Anyway, SVoice is going to end samsung one day.

Is there any point in shifting to a custom rom now? Or am i good with just rooting (will i still get updates)?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] celderic:
1) There is a region unlock app by chainfire, you need to be rooted though.

2) I am having a very good experience using 4.4 :) also if i am not mistaken the mm-camera-daemon raises the cou frequency when using the camera, i did see a fix posted online recently that will be included in the next update from google, after 4.4

3/4) To get back to an official rom all you have to do is flash the package via odin. For sim locking, see the app by chainfire.

5)as you are on JB currently it will work on other JB firmwares, im not shre if it will work on KK though i have never tried. Just updated and never had to go back.

If there are certain apps you would like to remove from the system partition i would suggest alexndrs rom as it has everything you have currently.

Also the TWRP 2.7 recovery is working well for me. You will need to flash that in odin to install the other rom on your phone, same button combo to get to recovery and download mode as your s3 was.

As for efs backups i found a good aroma script, let me find it i will edit when when i have it.

Edit: You will meed TWRP Recovery for this, your knox will go to 0x1 as mine has from flashing the recovery though, just make sure you want too. But here is what you need to flash in TWRP and follow the onscreen instructions to backup the efs for your n9005, backup is about 14mb when finished i think, so make sure. I uploaded it because i couldnt find the thread - http://uppit.com/y9fwqktntlei/EFS_Backup_restore_Aroma.zip

Edit: i hope i have answered everything you asked, sort of rushing to cook dinner whilst typing this ;) found the thread for the aroma efs backup tool too - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2611903

Wow. You are a GOD!

Cant remember the last time someone put time out to help out like this.

All seems well, and im all set to flash TWRP.

Once question though, is it possible that the UK modem is causing connectivity losses here in india? I seem to be loosing my network (have network issues at my workplace, but not sure if this is because of the new modem. Maybe its psychosomatic.) If so, should i flash some other regions firmware before the final alexandr rom?

xdaAdmin - The thanks button disappeared on clicking it once. Please fix this 'bug' to allow upto 100 thanks.

Edit: I installed alexndr rom!!!! Dont see much difference though. How do i make ok google work while the phone is off?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raahilkulshreshtha:
Alright! 3 hours with the new firmware. Everything works. I even managed to uninstall SVoice. But 2 things:

1) Ok Google command is still not working. Do i need a different ROM where samsung apps are not included?

2) The EFS tool you mentioned : Does it do anything different from the TWRP efs backup option?

Also, have you tried http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2472301

Thanks mate!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] celderic:
Anytime :) other people may find this thread useful. Just sharing what i have learnt from this device, i have owned it since christmas.

In the alexndr thread, did you flash the latest nc2 modem via odin? You will have to shut down your phone, do the button combo for download mode then flash it, it is in the first post of his thread, this may help. Also the bootloader if you havent (i dont think this needs to be updated, but i have anyway) flash the modem and bootloader seperately

I will try and look up the ok google command, i have never used it. I try to use just the essentials for best battery life and speed :)

The reason i gave you that to flash in recovery is because i have had problems restoring backups in twrp, apparently there is an update coming soon to fix this, but better to be safe and have 2. Put them on your pc or somewhere safe.

I did use the last version of x-note a few weeks ago(been updated since) but i did not like it, too many features that are useless for my daily usage. I think other users favour that rom though.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raahilkulshreshtha:
The NC2 modem and bootloader is in the UK BTU Official update right? Yup, i did that.

Also, apparently, since there is a core on the phone dedicated to system services, the Ok Google command doesnt take much juice to run. Its quite neat. Svoice apparently does eat up quite a lot of battery, but then again, thats what you get when you name something 'Svoice'... Seems like they are trying very hard to piss off apple.

You should try the Google Experience System (or whatever its called). I was using it on the s3 inside my car/for alarms with voice commands. Quite convenient and accurate (even with our indian names to call here) and i havent really faced any issues with a false startup till now on the s3.

Will do the efs thing tomorrow. Thanks for the warning on TRWP.

Would you know of any other ROM which completely boycotts samsungs propitiatory apps?

Hi

My wife and i use Galaxy s3 phones. Recently hers turned itself off in the night and wont turn on again. It was running a stock ROM unrooted. Battery is OK (tried on my phone). When I switch on I get the words Samsung Galaxy s3 but it goes no further. I can get into download mode but PC doesnt recognise the phone and wont boot to recovery using the 3 key press. In download mode I get an android picture and the word downloading... but unsure quite what it might be or not downloading. If I pug in to power I get a pic of a battery which shows no animation, colour and the bar is at zero. (I wondered if this was the problem I have seen documented of sudden unexplicable bricking of the S3)

I plan to leave it a few hours like this in download mode with poer cable on to see what happens now but maybe there is someone who can give advice even if its "buy a new phone".... The top L of the screen says

ODIN MODE

Thanks for your quick reply. I understand from other posts that system status may falsely indicate the phone as having been rooted as a consequence of the half SDS, so have mailed the phone for repair.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xisini:
Hello folks,

My gf's sister will come from NY at the beggining of april probably first week so i need to order a g2 soon. Smartphones are very expensive in my country due to nonsense taxes for example unlocked LG G2 32GB D802 is nearly $818 :eek: So you would understand why i want to buy phone from abroad.

I've considered three phones including Nexus 5 (actually ordered one and than cancelled), Sony Xperia Z1 Compact and finally choose to get a LG G2. I have some questions for you...

1- Where can i get a genuine unlocked 32GB LG G2 D802 with good price from a trusted seller ? By good price i mean under $500.

I found this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190985045933

and this: amazon

But in the comments of amazon a buyer wrote that this is not a D802, it is a D801 so i loose my trust on amazon seller. Problem here is i need to buy from a trusted seller because i may not have enough time to return a phone and get a new one plus i don't want to cause trouble to my gf's sister. She recently had a baby and last thing i want is to bother her with shipping it back than and checking a new phone if it is proper.

2- - I will be using G2 in Turkey and in here market is full of D802. I guess best suitable option is D802 isn't it ? What is main difference between unlocked variants of G2 ? I searched a little bit and found out network bands are different and most capable one is D802. Am i right ?

3- One more quick question. What is amount of user available space in 16gb and 32gb versions ?

Thank you for your interest

Cheers...
