Doesn't work on Samsung S3 with 4.4 KOT49H installed according to this guide: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/galaxy-s3-...49h-kitkat-supernexus-rom-how-install-1430363. I've used guide 2: gallery app won't install, camera crashes when PhotoSphere is selected.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] nikosdd:
Unfortunately this guide is only for 4.3 :( But if you have Kitkat 4.4 you can install Google Camera from Playstore. It supports Photospheres with very great quality :)

Anyone regretting buying the s5 over the htc one m8? I am looking to buy one and just still cant make up my mind. I must say having root is very important to me and I see the m8 has that and more. Is it worth the risk to wait and see if it happens with the s5?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] jmill75:
M8 not only has root but an unlocked bootloader. Something you will probably will never see on the S5. Each to there own I guess. I went with the M8 this go round. I dont think you can go wrong with either choice though. Both are really strong devices.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Syn Ack:
No regrets. That bottom bezel on the M8 is hideous.

Hi. I've read almost all posts on this forum and I couldn't find solution so I'm asking for help. I hope you won't slap me badly :)

So my problem is with network in SGS III (i9300). I bought it with error during dialing "not registered in network" and it's saying "only emergency calls", with stock branded adroid 4.3. Then I've started to fixing with other roms but always the same error (I haven't done EFS backup). I have IMEI which is correct with this under battery. I've been trying all methods which I found on xda and other forums and I couldn't solve it. Anyone has an idea how to fix it? :confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Either the imei is blacklisted, in which case you've bought a stolen phone, or the efs folder is corrupt in some way.

Take it to a reputable repair centre, they will be able to repair the efs, if the phone is genuine.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Corvo94:
I used websites in my country to check if the imei is blacklisted, those sites say's that isn't but I'm not sure. Where I can also check if it is blacklisted?

If I will go to repair center and they found out that is stolen what will happen?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jumaqidi:
Just explain how u got the phone and they MIGHT just give u a new phone.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Corvo94:
I really don't think so but I will try with repair service. I don't want to have any troubles with police :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jumaqidi:
How and where did u buy the phone?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Corvo94:
By my friend friends who's working for utilization company or something like that. He said that this phone should be utilizated. It matters?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andrewwright:
Don't take it to service center. Cost!!!!

Take it to a little local shop and they will be able to fix a corruption of the efs easily. UK price is about £20 to fix this.

If its blocked then you can sell it for parts or be a good boy and hand it into the little local police station:thumbup:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jumaqidi:
Btr to hand it to the police or u might be misunderstood as the one who stole the phone.

1..£50/£60 for scrap in you're pocket

2...take it to cop shop,get arrested for looking like the man that mugged the poor 16year old who lossed it when he got drunk in the local park,then went home and told his mummy he got robbed by a man that looks just like the op??:D Its all 50/50 lmao. :cool:

Follow this instructions the only thing that changes is your carrier settings.

Modem link via Bluetooth for Windows Smartphones

This is a brief tutorial on how to do a modem link with the MPx 220 via bluetooth. This is for connecting to Cingular's GPRS network.

I highly suggest that you have a unlimited data plan before tethering your computer.

1st: Pair your phone to the computer, windows will recognize the phone and install "Standard Modem over Bluetooth Link"

2nd: Go to Control Panel, Modems and Phones and confirm, if its not there try adding it via the add button.

3rd: Highlight "Standard Modem over Bluetooth Link" and click the Properties button. Then select the Advanced tab.

Type in the string you see in the image.

4th: Create a new dial up connection, and make sure you use "Standard Modem over Bluetooth link" mine picked this automatically because its

the only "modem" I have.

5th: In the username field type: WAP@CINGULARGPRS.COM, in the password field type: CINGULAR1 make sure both are in all caps.

Type *99# in the Dial: field and press connect

hello everyone >>

i need help for my mobile i was trying to install a kitkat rom when i got disconnection and the result is

my mobile is not turning on

only when i let in charge for long time i see sony logo only

and in this case only if i restart while connected to charge using power and ( vol up !!!!!) it restarts into ( flshmode !!! not fastboot )

i tried to flash a firmware using flashtool and it gave me the result accompanied with thread

help me please
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wxl104:
But your phone just connect with your phone by flashmode,not fastmode,you want to gonna fastmode,you need to shutdown your phone,and press VOL+,and then connect with your computer.Just do as what forumer said.Don't mixed.If you want to install the customer rom,you need to unlock your cellphone.Remember you need to go the following step:

1,root your phone,

2,unlock bootloader(fastmode)

3.install the recovery.(fastmode)

4install the kernel from the rom.(fastmode)

5install the rom.(recovery)

6reboot into the phone
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ramil978:
thanks for the explanation

BUT !!

when i restart my phone it only responds when i press power + VOL up and the only response is when it is connected to charger or pc for long time

and it only gets in FLASHMODE

i couldn't force it into fastboot

!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wxl104:
power&VOL+ gonna fastmode,power&VOL- gonna flashmode.Seams the driver is different.If you unlocked the bootloader I think your fastmode driver is installed.And whatever of mode you went in,you must power down your phone.not restart.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ramil978:
I didn't get it but i tell you no response with any other buttons neither vol- or power on by itself

I only wait while charging till sony logo appears by itself without pressing buttons then i try everything and the only positive response i get is :

as i told you ( power & vol + ) ----> goes into flash,mode !!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] wxl104:
So,I suggest you to do like this.charge the phone,and no matter what phone is going on,after the sony logo apperars and still charge waite 2 hours.2 hours later,Shutdown your cellphone by hold power&vol+&vol- till there is a viberation,the phone now is shutdown,won't start again,and then open flashtool,select flashmode,and selcet the stock rom for your cellphone ,till the flashtool suggust you to pleg to your cellphone,you hold power&vol- and connect your phone.it will start stock rom flashing.till it finish.And reboot,wait 5-10 minutes.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ramil978:
no use :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
Try holding only vol- button and connect.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Ramil978:
I did and in vain it's only accepting flashmode and saying as in photo in the main post that a file is missing < so if there is any trick or hint through flashmode that can save my mobile i'd be gratefull

thanks everyone , and i appreciate your concern

I keep getting a black screen when sharing between apps. For instance, if I'm in YouTube and want to share to Facebook, the screen goes black. The keyboard comes up, and it's apparently usable. But the rest of the screen is just black.

On my phone this is an issue with AOSP ROMs, not every ROM seems to be affected too the same degree. On some it only happens in certain apps. On others it's all across the board.

I've searched the threads but have only come across one post regarding this issue (and that on a different phone and ROM). But it had no replies to it.

Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.

I keep bouncing back and fourth between Touchwiz and AOSP ROMs, and I realize this problem has a lot to do with that.

I'm currently on AOKP's latest build from aokp.co , but as stated, this issue occurs in all AOSP ROMS I've tried.

Thanks.

I'm not a pro but in my opinion you can't expect to use that feature without significant power drain.

Every time when screen goes on some of the handlers wakes up many proesses i.e. weather refresh, sync refresh etc. and also wakelocks.

btw. try some other kernels and check which one works best for you. I'm using ktoonz kernel with pac rom and get around 5.5 h screen on. With moderate use (some games, emails, calls and kik messaging etc) i dont need to charge my phone for 48h.

I dont want to unlock bootloader, so I would like to know if stock kernel is ok for custom ROMs or should I unlock bootloader and flash any custom kernel too?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smogf:
II use exiastenz with stock kernel. I tried other kernels as well but after all I went back to stock kernel. But. I stay with unlocked bootloader while I can easily bring back my phone to life after messing too much in system ;) when I recieve a bootloop at Sony logo I just flash doomlord kernel with cwm and then I can flash everything else. But with normal use I prefer stock kernel. Don't need to overclock with such hardware. Don't need to emulate cdrom or other stuff. Don't have time for that. Maybe a year ago but now I don't test new features.

As a summary. Is worth to have unlocked bootloader. But for normal using of device use stable stock kernel and .201 software.

You have to know that some of non stock ROMs NEED special kernels. CM 11 for example.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] le grande magnetto:
s

Yes, I know some about stock and non stock ROMS and when non stock kernel is needed. I had Live with Walkman (Xperia 11) and I needed kernel to OC because 1GHz was not enough and there were plenty of various kernels. Yet it was the only my android device so I need to renew my knowledge base. :D

So you would say, that stock kernel is enough? Or is it that custom kernels for SP does not differ much from stock kernel?

Also, if I want to flash CWM (recovery menu), do I need to unlock bootloader?

Is warranty void with root or it has nothing to do with warranty?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smogf:
In my opinion Xperia SP has enough hardware to normal use, and also heavy gaming. Stock Kernel have all features which I need. OTG work, I dont overclock my CPU, more... I underclock my CPU frequenzy. I dont want support of NTFS and other things which can you find in custom kernels. So stock Kernel is enough.

Warranty. You Void your warranty when you unlock your bootloader. But you can always relock it, flash stock ROM and you will have your waranty again.

You dont have to unlock your bootloader to flash (install) recovery. You need root only.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] below24:
Yes the Latest T-Mobile ROM, its from their site.

Well i have to use a piece of sortware found here, to unlock the lock on the phone so i could first flash it and that also unlocked it.

Then immediately debranded it to the Qtek 9100 ROM, which made the Device run slower (than the T-mobile one)

Not sure what it was called though probably the lokiwiz version 0.1, that was the one. Very easy and straight forward...
