[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yarinch:
Hi everyone.

I own a Galaxy S3 mobile device, and I haven't gotten an upgrade for a really long time. My current Andriod version is 4.1.2, and when I try to look for updates it tells me that the last updates are already installed. Maybe it has to do with me living in Israel and having the phone's language on Hebrew? Is there a way I can download the new update through the phone (Not from Samsung's website, third-party programs etc.)?

Another thing, today I started playing with Google Now, because as far as I know it's much better than S Voice, and it has support in Hebrew, which is really great - I don't know of any other program that can support Hebrew. When I searched something like the weather it did display it, although it displayed it in Hebrew and didn't read it out loud to me. I tried changing the Google Now language to English, so I had to ask in English, but the results were still in Hebrew and therefore weren't read out loud. The only thing that made it change was changing the phone's language to English, something I don't want to do, because I want all the settings and words to be in Hebrew.

Another issue is that if I said "Open Youtube" it didn't open it when the phone language was set to Hebrew, although it did open it when it was English, even though this whole time Google Now's language was in English.

Lastly, when I changed the phone's language to English, all of the sudden there were alot of cards with information in Google Now, although when it was in Hebrew there were no cards at all.

Is there a way I can have all these features without changing the whole phone's langauge to English, even if it means it will show all the information in English?

Thank you very much and I'm really sorry I wrote alot :D

P.S. Sorry If I had any grammar/spelling mistakes, English isn't my mother language, and sorry if I broke any of the site's rules, it's my first post in this website, and I couldn't find an answer to my problem anywhere.

I can help you with the 4.3 update....

What is your device's model? (Like i9300, blah blaH)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yarinch:
My galaxy is i9300.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eatsleep:
There are tons of articles online how to update through kies/odin, just google it..... there is a latest firmware out there, try it....

Would you be able to do that?

And there is no coming back after your on 4.3 if you don't have a backup your efs (it converts your efs v1 to v2 ) Edit : except ML4

and it requires root access so make sure you know it.......
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theronkinator:
You can go back to 4.1.2 just fine as long as it's MG4 or above. I downgraded from 4.3 to 4.1.2 just fine, didn't lose my IMEI or need to restore my EFS (although I did have a backup anyway, it wasn't needed).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eatsleep:
Yeah, it also uses efs v2
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theronkinator:
I know it does, I was just pointing out your "And there is no coming back after your on 4.3 if you don't have a backup your efs" isn't exactly correct.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eatsleep:
Guilty as charged :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yarinch:
Yes, but I want to update through the phone's update system and not through other programs, but it tells me there aren't any updates. So I just have to wait untill it will be released?

And what's so bad about 4.3 that alot of people want to downgrade from it?

Thanks for the help :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eatsleep:
They are the same, just different csc codes and modem, is not much of a problem.

Samsung pushes it's updates in parts depending on the region.... I also was like you waiting for the official update to come through OTA but my patience broke,,,,, i had to update.......

Some (older versions of 4.3 ROMS) are quite buggy, they have wake up lag, lockscreen lag, random reboots, notification problems etc etc.

I am on 4.3 and face none of these, and to me, the device seems more fluid and battery friendly..... I'll recommend you to move on!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yarinch:
Thank you so much for your help :D I might update next week after doing a backup.

Can anyone help me with my Google Now problem?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eatsleep:
I don't use google now or s voice...... Sorry
[Google Chromecast] ArkAngel06:
So, at work I don't have internet, but I have my phone, and I have a chromecast on the tv. I use my phones hotspot all the time for my ipad and laptop with no problem. I have my chromecast setup on my Nexus 5's hotspot as it's internet connection. It works fine if I use my ipad to push content to the chromecast, but on the phone, all apps hide the chromecast option.

So basically the chromecast is invisible to the Nexus 5. I guess because the Nexus 5 is technically the Chromecast's router, and not a fellow client. There are a lot more apps that have chromecast support, so to get this working from my phone would be great. Is there a way?
[Google Chromecast] 313dash:
I use my phone hotspot and play videos all the time. You can use video caster and chrome beta. I tried Netflix and Youtube but didn't have any luck.

Nexus5 Exp. 5.5 for N4
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
I would think that putting the phone into tether mode changes the way the networking works and would prevent it from making direct outgoing connections to anything other than the Internet.

I could be dead wrong however.
[Google Chromecast] rkirmeier:
The problem with Hotspot/tether is that the Chomecast can't see the phone because of AP isolation built into Android. Chromecast or any "client' connected to the hotspot can see the Internet as that is what hotspot is for; connecting clients to the Internet... If you connect a second client to the hotspot I believe it can see an control Chromecast..
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Right.... basically the phone is not on the Tether IP subnet and therefore can not communicate with any device that has a Tether IP address. So Android itself has no access to this subnet it is just internet connection sharing with that subnet.

Not exactly a perfect technical description of what is going on but in the ballpark.

Only the App that is doing the tethering is actually seeing the Tether IP the rest of the phone has no access to it.
[Google Chromecast] abuttino:
Put the phone into hotspot mode, use your tablet to navigate and play. I've done it
[Google Chromecast] techjohnny:
I've been able to use AVIA in the configuration you're referring to.
[Moto G Accessories] petran_7:
Hello everyone! I am going to present you my new case.

In the 20th of March I ordered the genuine Orzly hybrid fusion bumper case with the clear rear panel.

The case arrived at my home (I live in Greece, the case came from the UK) at the 24th of the same month while the delivery was estimated between 26/3/2014 and 1/4/2014. So it arrived two days earlier. Excellent service!

The cost was 8.5 euros.

The package was a big folder with bubbles and it was inside a transparent bag with the Orzly logo.

The case had a protector on its back to prevent from scratches, though I had to remove it because it was full of bubbles, so I couldn’t keep it as it was.

Some small defects were on the rear panel, so I tried to remove them with a dry towel. The result was having some very slight rows (like scratches but really small and in hand you can’t feel them).

Then I washed the case with hot water and soap but nothing happened.

I was a bit disappointed but they are hardly seen so I overpassed it.

It is small and does not fatten the phone.

In the hand the feeling is very nice as the black part is smooth and a bit soft. In the touch it is like the original back cover of our Moto G.

The rear panel does not keep many signs of my hand and it is pretty nice. Especially for anyone who have bought a colorful back cover it will be awesome!

The keys are covered by the case but it is very easy to push them. Of course the ports are not covered.

Overall I am satisfied with this case. Far better in look and in touch from others I' ve tried.

Hope I helped with this thread.

Is this available in amazon USA?

It is available at the UK Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/Orzly®-BLAC...UTF8&colid=3GWFOXL9HKWP&coliid=I2TEVII9DLUBKM

Also there is another similar case http://www.amazon.co.uk/FoneM8­®-Mo...=UTF8&colid=3GWFOXL9HKWP&coliid=IY4GVVOGJ1B9I

Hope I helped you :)
[Moto G Accessories] Minervamc:
Thanks guys.Very nice.
[Moto G Accessories] rmrbpt:
I bought the FoneM8 one and actually it is the Orlzy, but cheaper.

Came in the Orzly package and everything, the just don't want to say in the internet that they are selling the Orzly cover cheaper than Orzly itself :P
[Moto G Accessories] elvi92:
i have that case and i don't like it.

first of all it cames to me scratcht but it not happen to everyone.

The problem is that in my opinion now the phone are too big and it is hard to press the sides bottons.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] kisrita:
I bought some ebooks with the Samsung credit we got with this device. But I really don't want to read on such a large tablet. Can I access these books on another device? I would rather read on my Nexus 7, but I can't figure out a way to get my books there. I couldn't even find a way to access the on Samsung Note 8 tablet. It doesn't seem reasonable to sell books that can only be read on a single device, so I'm hoping someone here can help me figure out how to access content I purchased on another tablet.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] BclingergFJ:
There are applications that provide this option, though your device must be rooted.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] kisrita:
Can you share more info? Point me to the apps? My Nexus 7 and my Note 8 are both rooted. My Note 10 isn't, but I willing to root it if it helps.

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] BclingergFJ:
Check out fBook.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] kisrita:
Facebook? That's the only reference I can find to "fBook".

Btw, I tried installing Samsung Hub on my less than one year old (rooted) Samsung Note 8 and it installs but crashes on opening. Same result as on my Nexus 7 with build.prop edited to look like it's a Galaxy S4.

It is just insane that Samsung sells ebooks that aren't compatible with their own tablets.

How can I ever trust Samsung enough to purchase anything from them if what they sell isn't even compatible between the same family of devices of the current generation?!?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] BclingergFJ:
FBook is an ebook application.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] jonling:
"Rooted" being key here. They expect it to tun on the stock system. They cannot allow for hundreds of rooted options.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] BclingergFJ:
Right on the rooting, nothing special. FBook is the reader I used, it is no longer available. There are others that provide that option though.

Via my Note 3
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] kisrita:
Are you saying the reason the Samsung hub app crashes on my Note 8 and Nexus 7 is because they are rooted?

I still have made no progress accessing my ebooks I purchased on my Note 10.1 (2014) on any other device,

Any help is appreciated.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] dr.m0x:
It's probably framework dependant just like a lot of the TouchWiz apps. The note 8.0 should have Samsung hub by default though, assuming you haven't debloated it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] kisrita:
I agree the Note 8 *should* have Samsung Hub, since it is a current generation Samsung device in the same family of tablets, but it doesn't. And it is not even listed as compatible on Samsung page:

http://www.samsung.com/us/samsunghub/

Which is why I'm at a loss why anyone would trust Samsung to buy anything from them if their own tablets aren't even compatible?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] LiMz:
Are the books as single files? As in can ou browse for them on your device?

Or is it purchased through an application?

I use a combination of google drive + Moon Reader to achieve some thing similar.

All my books are on the google drive and moon reader + syncs my reading position so I can read on

Just came from the Cingular store. Got an exchange for the messed up on I already had.......... Can anyone tell me how to CID unlock and SIM unlock my phone...

It must be a new one becuase it reads as follows:

ROM version: 2.25.11.1 WWE

ROM date: 5/11/06

RAdio version: 02.25.11

Protocol version 4.1.13.12

ExtRom version: 2.25.11.102

will the normal unlock that is in the custom roms work for my phone???
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pmow:
"try it"
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] alynch75:
try what

tray what

i got it sim unlocked but how do i do the CID unlock
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] dcamin:
No - you can only SIM unlock, you can't CID unlock using the free programs available here. (It's possible you can CID unlock from a third-party website that charges for it...I think it's http://www.imei-check.co.uk)

I flashed my 8125 to 2.25 before realizing I needed to CID unlock it first. Fortunately most of my tweaks don't require custom ROMs. I'm sure eventually they will get Lokiwiz to work with the newer ROMs as well.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] matt0525:
Uh-oh!! :|

I'm getting an 8125 at the end of this week.......so, if it is has the new ROM on it, then I can't put one of Summiters ROM's on it??

I sure hope not.....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jschaff:
I have an 8125. I lokiwiz unlocked it in software thinking that I needed to unlock it to upgrade from the original to 2.17.

Then I recently upgraded to 2.25 using the official Cingular ROM upgrade download. I am using the phone fine, except that I do not have push email present on it.

How did I upgrade without SIM or CID unlocking it? Why does it say in this thread that I would need to unlock the phone to change the ROM?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] alynch75:
Update

This is what I see when I turn the phone on:

IPL 2.25.0001

SPL 2.25.0001

GSM 02.25.11

OS 2.25.11.1

Does this make a differnece. When I swapped out my old one in the store they gave me this one and the guy at Cinglar told me it was a brand new one. I saw him get it out the store and on the box the manufacture date was this month June 2006... I have anohter 8125 that I purchased in April and I notice that the flash chips are differnt. How can I load Summiter's new ROM onto this new 8125 has anyone had any luck. I used Lockwiz from this site and it did do the SIM unlock but I can't tell if it did the CID unlock. Can this unit be CID unlocked. I don't want to fry my phone.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] aixenv:
interesting that i just got one overnighted to me with the v1.8, i can only speak from my experience so take it for what it's worth, i had the original, i upgraded to the 2.25, and then i was thinking oops i should have cid/sim unlocked my phone, so then what did i do? i used the ship rom download on this site to reset the phone to v1.8 it changed everything back, then i simply ran the lokiwiz02b i believe it was and cid and sim unlocked the phone, and to test i ran an imate kjam ROM just to make sure i actually did it and it worked, sure enough kjam splash screen and poof i was good to go, and then i just updated to summiters rom and voila there you go.

i would expect you could do the same. just use the cingular ship rom v1.8 to go back and then do what i did, i couldnt imagine different results since i just did this last week.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] kyphur:
I don't think you can downgrade a phone with the new flash chip (G4 - Rom numbers ending in .0001) because the 1.x Roms don't have IPL/SPL for G4 Chips.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] alynch75:
upgrade

Hey if that is the case how will they do this. When they release a new rom won't it be available on Cingualr;s site. So there has to be some way to do it. Cingular wouldn't want to confuse the customers. In any event should I just return the phone and hope I get lucky to get one without the new flash chip. Like I said before the phone is SIM unlcoked I am trying ott to get it CID unlocked so that I can use summiter's latest rom
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] kyphur:
www.imei-check.uk.co claims they can CID unlock it for you.

The trick to changing the Rom would be to not flash the booloader, Summiter has a new multi-installer thingy that will allow you to flash everything except the Bootloader (but you will need to dump the $38.00 for CID unlock).

Or you could report speradic touchscreen problems and do a warranty replacement by calling customer service. See if they send you a G3 phone (which they probably will).
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optimi:
My time with my G2 may be coming to an end quickly. As of this morning, the phone boots up fine. I still receive notifications. But the screen is essentially useless. When I hit the power button, the screen goes from the powered-off black, to a dark blue, but that is it. When I tried to boot into recovery mode, all I got was a completely white screen.

Any ideas what the issue might be? I'm in Canada, which unfortunately means getting small replacements parts shipped to me is a pain and likely not worth the cost.

Edit: the white screen during recovery is no longer happening. Now the screen is completely dark dark blue, regardless of status, when powered on.

You could use StudioKUMA .nomedia Manager. It places files named ".nomedia" in the folders you don't want to show in apps like Music Player, for instance. It works for audio files, I think it works for image files too.

Or you can just place a .nomedia file with a size of 0 byte in the folder that contains your pictures and reboot, I think this method works too
