[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
UCDMG2 is the bootloader for Android 4.1.2. With this, you should be able to Odin safely to 4.1.1. However, with the recent reports on the vulnerability of 4.1.1 to Heartbleed attacks, I would advise you go to stock 4.3. Flashing 4.1.1 via Odin would let you free unlock the phone (if it isn't unlocked yet) which would enhance the sale value. Thereafter, you can do an OTA update to stock 4.3 which is the latest firmware yet for this phone.

To install Android 4.1.1, go to sammobile.com or androidfilehost.com to download the stock firmware for I747UCDLK3 and then flash this via Odin. If your phone is already unlocked, then you can flash 4.3 via custom recovery using the instructions posted in the thread below ...

If you require further guidance, I'd be glad to help.

NB

If you are selling online, I would advise you take a look at Swappa.com which is the XDA endorsed site for buying/selling of phones. You'll get top price there and less likely to be burned as could be the case with places like that online auction site.

Thanks for the reply. I was getting ready to download that one. It appears that I should just be able to flash it in TWRP right? I had my phone factory unlocked about a year ago so I believe I should be good to go to 4.3.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Larry2999:
Yes, you should be able to flash the 4.3 straight from TWRP. This has always worked well for me. Good luck!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] baskln:
Just wanted to say thanks it worked great!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] pcshano:
or you can just use the leaked 4.3 bootloader UCUEMJ2 or the 4.3 leaked stock rom

that will allow you to go back to 4.1.2 or 4.1.1 whenever you want to without the troublesome that comes with UCUEMJB bootloader =D

but again if you're unlocked and you're sure that you won't go back to older version

then just flash the official version

Hi,

I guess I have three questions here and I guess this would be the best place to ask. I am a K-JAM user.

1. I am planning to get Sharp W-ZERO3 but it is in Japanese language. Does anyone one know how to change the language on WM5.0 system?

2. How does the WM5.0 language interface work? Is it embedded in the ROM? Hopefully someone can point me to a "Understanding the language interface of WM5.0 101" .

3. Is the method of changing the language of WM5.0 system the same across all devices?

Thanks.
[General Topics] levenum:
Hi lamlamz!

Unfortunately changing language of any Windows Mobile device is not a simple matter.

There are two ways of changing the interface:

1. Get an English ROM image for your device (if there are any) and reflash. It's just like updating, and you can find instructions in the WiKi.

2. Get English MUIs. These are files that contain the interface resources (everything you see on the screen). If you can get a set of those, copy them to the windows directory of the device then set regional settings to English you will have an English speaking device.

There is a catch though: these files are exe and DLL files that only have resources (string, menus etc.) and no code, but to work on WM5 they still have to be signed.

I am not familiar with W-ZERO3 so I am not sure if you can find English ROM or MUIs for it. If you have some background in programming or just know how to edit resources you may be able to create some your self.

Here's how it works:

Let's say you have a file word.exe. You want it's interface in English so you take all the resources from it and put them in a file called word.exe.0409.mui (0409 is hex language code for English).

Good luck.

Hi Levenum,

Thanks for your kind reply. Appreciate it.

I am not programmer but a an adventurous tech user.

I guess I will have to wait for English version to come out.

Thanks again.

I'm using SuperSU on the unlocked version of the M8. S-Off ARHD. I have rooted and everything, but I seem to be hacing issues with most apps not requesting SuperSU permissions. Greenify and FX File Explorer are the only 2 that have asked for them. So far, I can't run BusyBox, Auto-hide SoftKeys and the GSam root companion because none of them will request SU permissions.

Not sure if i should start a new thread, but I am also having problems with SuperSu pro v2.14 (chainfire) Its not asking for permissions when trying to install the drivers for the viper4android app. been trying the for days. I have an htc one max (sprint) unlocked and rooted running 4.4.2, and root checked. busy box v1.22.1 installed, using twrp recovery v2.8.0.1. Other than that its all stock. SuperSu has granted permissions for other apps, but not viper4android. I have been browsing and trying many different ways to install, even found a zip file to try and flash, but the install failed. probably cause the zip file is old. I also tried to install the viper4android xhifi and it DID ask for superuser permissions. In the process of installing drivers, it asked to choose cpu. I chose CortexAx with NEON option and it failed install and told me to check root and busybox installation . Im not a master of this kind of stuff but not a newb either, and any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Update: got the super user to give permissions, but still couldn't get viper4android to install drivers...

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] CaliLove310:
I am running the latest update, stock. I used the lightweight ADB/fastboot installer to install those two+drivers on a Fresh Win 8 install. ADB is able to see it no prob. I got the authentication message to allow my PC. adb reboot-bootloader successfully gets me there. Fastboot device get stuck on <waiting for device>. fastboot devices shows nothing at all. I did some googling and found out about some Win8 and fastboot compatibility issues. Also found out an update fixes it, instead of trying the hotfixes. I installed those Windows Updates but fastboot still is not able to see it. It shows up in device manager as Samsung Mobile USB CDC Composite Device, not fastboot. I've tried installing many of the drivers i've found here on forums like the naked drivers by bypassing driver signature on Win8 and installing those. The note 3 gets detected as an Android Device then but fastboot still does not work. I've attempted to use Kies to install the drivers and i get the same results.

My laptop runs Win 8.1 and this gives me the same result. My laptop has USB 3.0 ports only, my desktop with Win8 has USB2.0 but those give me the same result. I am trying to flash TWRP so I can flash a custom rom. fastboot flash recovery <path.img> gets stuck on <waiting for device> i thought maybe if I rooted fastboot would work. So I used the CF auto root successfully using ODIN but fastboot still does not see it. I flashed the stock rom using Kies and fastboot still does not see it. I really need some help now, im lost on what to try next. I since then updated my PC to 8.1 so now they are both on 8.1. Both desktop and laptop are x64 Win8.1 pro. Desktop has 4 usb 2.0 ports and other 3.0s. Laptop uses 3.0 only.

Edit: Before the latest update I was running a custom rom and recovery. I had no issue at all. When the latest update was released I decided to try it out stock for a while.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djr83:
I just switched from a Nexus 4 to a HTC One M8 GPe. On the Nexus 4 I used Light flow very much with many colors and blink patterns to be able to identify what was happening without turning on the screen. Now when I have installed Light flow on my M8 it's only possible to choose from 4 colors or something and no blink patterns.

Is this possible to fix?

Great phone but this really bothers me...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ruxin:
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that it is due to the limitations of the LED on the M8 vs the N4. It's a different type of LED so there isn't an ability to tinker with it as much.

I miss that from my N4 too, but ultimately as soon as I saw/see a notification light I check the phone anyway.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djr83:
I suspected this but before I got the M8 I didn't even realize that it would have anything else than the best LED. But yeah, 90% of the times It's just a message of some kind so I guess I'll survive. Still annoying though...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andyw2100:
Not only is it not possible to fix because of the limitation of the LED that the other poster mentioned, but I'd be shocked if Light Flow gives you any color other than green and if it works consistently.

I had messed around with it some a couple of weeks ago, and gave up. I guess it's possible the Light Flow developer has tweaked it since then, but the version I was using was pretty useless on the M8. I don't fault the Light Flow developer though. I blame HTC on this one.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djr83:
Maybe I was unclear. To get it to flash in light flow you just need to enable mix and choose flash under the right color. This is not specific for Textra, but Textra can flash the Led by itself, without Light flow.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] duckstardeluxe:
I've really tried getting it to work, but needed to put it in Direct Mode to get the LED with permanent light when lit, instead of flashing.

But in this mode the LED is dimmed even though the settings are set to 100% brightness in lightflow.

To get the LED 100% brightness I needed to remove Direct Mode and accept that permanent light instead didn't work, and live with flashing LED. Hence, not very different control than the standard setup i the Sense rom.

Any clues?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djr83:

Then I dont know. Works perfect for me. Really bright too. Have you turned off LED notification in screen settings?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andyw2100:
I've been fooling around with this a lot since hearing the news that it was working.

I think I've got it working pretty well to my satisfaction now. As I was messing with settings, some of which I may have inadvertently checked (like the Samsung always on setting) I saw a number of interesting behaviors.

One was that at one point my basic notification was, instead of just the green LED flashing, a combination of alternating green and amber colors. (I'm not sure what I did, so don't ask me to reproduce it.)

At some other point I had the LED staying on even with the screen on.

There were other issues, though, when those things were happening. So I kept monkeying with the settings, and I think while neither of those things are happening now, for the most part Lightflow is working acceptably well. I actually would like it if the LED --could-- be on while the screen is on.

Also unless I am mistaken, after an alert, if the screen is turned on but the alert is not cleared, when the screen is turned off, the LED will not come back on. Is this what you two are experiencing as well? I'm pretty sure with my last phone if the alert was not cleared, the LED would continue to flash.

Thanks.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djr83:
When the LED is alternating between two colors (or more on other phones) it's probably two (or more) notifications and you've got the settings to loop through them all. Standard setting is to do this when you have the charger plugged in IIRC.

The LED is working with the screen on for me and I think it always has on the M8. On my Nexus 4 it turns off when I turn on the screen and the LED turns on again if I don't clear it and turn off the screen. Great if you don't want to read the message right now and still don't want to miss it later. Since the LED is always working wether or not the screen is on, this is not a problem on the M8.

But if it's possible to alternate with both colors on the same notification, that would be a great way to get a third "color". Could you check if it is like I said or if it really is dual color?

EDIT:

I got it to work! In mixer you can set one color to solid and one to flash to get both. So there are actually a difference on green + amber and amber + green. This will give us a total of 6 options: green, flashing green, orange, flashing orange, orange + flashing green, green + flashing orange.

EDIT2:

The non-flashing color isn't very strong, so I'm not sure how useful this really is.

http://youtu.be/CIRPbcZqV0U
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andyw2100:
It was definitely not really two notifications, though it is somehow possible that Lightflow was acting as if it were. The alternating was definitely like the alternating LED colors that I used to see on my last device when it was alternating between notifications.

I can't reproduce it because I don't know what crazy combination of settings I had at the time. The Samsung always on setting was probably involved. It's even possible I had incorrect checked the Samsung root mode. I was really trying lots of things, and not sure of what I was doing.

Right now, as you suggested, I have Direct Mode, Root Mode, and HTC Alternative driect mode all checked.

I have all LED notifications turned off in Settings/Display and Gestures/Notification Light.

I have Textra set to not notify me in any way, and am using LighFlow for notifications and repeat notifications.

I have not tested things much, so I really don't know how well it is working, but it basically seems to be, though I definitely do not have the LED staying lit with the phone on, or after I turn it on and then back off.

I wonder if some of the differences we are seeing could be due to versions of the phone, rooting procedures, etc. My phone is the Verizon version, and I used Weaksauce to gain root access. Could this make a difference?

Again, many thanks!

I don't know what the above refers to.

If it refers to what I said about the LED not staying lit while the screen is on, or not lighting again after the screen has been on, the poster above me in the thread said his --IS-- functioning that way, and I was just commenting that I have not yet been able to get mine to work that way.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djr83:
