[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ms79723:
Okay so I kept going to different Sprint stores and one guy said something that sounds believable (because I heard about it online)

He said that it's really the Sprint Spark that's messing up. There's an issue with the hand off. Since there's only one band in use at a time and Sprint's LTE can't handle voice...whenever you want to deal with voice you must go from LTE to CDMA. But he said there's an issue with our phone that's not allowing that to happen correctly. I was googling the **** and I found other people talking about this too. They were saying that the fix is really on Sprint to update their **** so that there's Sprint Spark everywhere.

If what these people are saying is true, then I'm sure I'm ****ed. And I think they're right to some degree. There's an issue with the hand off. In my house I have a weak LTE Spark connection. If I go into airplane mode and then come out of it, I can connect to Spark. But then it drops and everything stops working. If I go downtown I have a strong Spark connection and it seems like everything with my phone is fine. If I just drive from my place to downtown, I experience the drop. It's ridiculous.

So I can see how that's all true. But I'm really hoping it's not because if it is then I can't use this phone for a while. I kinda feel like I wasted money on it...this single band at a time **** is dumb. Yeah it may be easy on the battery life...but it's not helping with phone usage. Sprint wasn't ready for this :/

Here's link to what I was reading:

I used KINGO to root my 4.3, it said it rooted, but it didnt. It installed a custom recovery, but doesnt look like root is sticking . I am getting all sorts of app closes now ( you tube, super u, google maps )

Is there a ODIN flashable 4.3 full download? I see only a thread to restore to stock if you have a working flashable recovery...

Any tips???? on getting back to stock

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] nodyarg:
You are posting in the wrong forum, only developers are allowed to post topics here for their releases. You should be asking in the Q&A forum.

Anyways, I am assuming you are here because you have a i747 or i747m and not one of the many other versions of the s3, but make sure before following my instructions, or you might brick your phone. There are several options for getting a stock rooted 4.3 rom, such as downloading a stock image from sammobile installing cf autoroot over your rom, downloading a prerooted rom, using mobileodin to root inject a stock image, etc. forget kingo.

I would recommend using the i747 tools in the android unified toolkit to flash and root your phone since it provides step by step instructions during the semi-automated process, which is helpful for beginners. you can download the toolkit here: http://www.skipsoft.net/?p=1347

Alternatively, you can download a pre-rooted ("root66") odin flashable 4.3 image, and then flash it in odin. i would still recommend using the toolkit alongside that process though. Here are some root66 stock roms: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1739426
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hellscythe:
Are ROMs cross flashable on the Snapdragon LTE models?

I saw a ROM that can be flashed on a variety of the Snapdragon LTE models and I am wondering if this applies to all ROMs.

This is because I come from the Xperia Z where ROMs are cross flashable between the 3G and LTE models of the device, due to them being internally identical just with different frequency bands.

If this is not the case then I will need to specifically find the SM-G900F which is difficult since in Australia I believe it is the SM-G900i model that is sold...

Hello, I would like to install a ROM on my rooted SIII. I used this video and used the file provided by someone on the forums.

It was called "How to root the Samsung Galaxy S3 on Android 4.3" it is created by Qbking77 (I can't post links so please go watch!)

After this video I have a few questions.

1. Did this unlock the bootloader?

2. Can I flash TWRP?

3. Can I flash a custom ROM? (Cyanogen Mod 11 specifically)

4. If flashing ROMS are possible will it trip KNOX?

5. Can I go back to stock TouchWiz from a Custom ROM?

6.Anything else I need to know?

I am a novice in rooting and if you guys have information please post! Thanks! :D

EDIT: If any admin can move this in the verizon section that would be great..

So I just tried a bunch of kitkat Roms and found Gummy to be the best for me right now. The only problem I'm having is when wifi tethering is on, the connected devices are in a "limited" mode and get no internet.

Anyone have a solution to this problem? I've flashed the latest 3 versions of Gummy and they all have the same problem.
[Verizon LG G2] big70tom:
I was converted to lg with Nexus 4, and have stuck with them. I was a long time HTC fan, but the g2 is the best phone I've ever owned.

I'm a little disappointed in the news on g3. It seems the screen will be bigger and a higher resolution, but the battery is staying the same? Isn't this going to severely change the battery life?

The processor isn't going to be the LG octa core we had hoped for, I am just really not too excited. Anyone have any good news?

[Verizon LG G2] trickster2369:
The good news is that the LG G2 is a great phone, and there is no reason to spend the extra money on the G3.

Thanks Devs, from my LG G2
[Verizon LG G2] ricecake2000:
Yeah I find it a bit ridiculous that they are going 2k screen yet many companies can't make a 1080p screen last more than 15hrs.
[Verizon LG G2] big70tom:
Well I'm a phone junky. I've had the g2 longer than any phone ever. I just hope there is more to g3 than been released so far.

Also wish you could buy one of the new phones from One or OPPO and use them on Verizon

Sent from the BEST phone I've ever owned my LG G2
[Verizon LG G2] Damasterjj:
G2 is still good I'll wait for G4, I think they are aiming too high on G3 with bigger screen and same battery size
[Verizon LG G2] Rippley05:
I just don't get it sometimes. People are killing the HTC M8 and even more so the Galaxy S5 for being "more of the same", so LG works on a totally revamped UI, a (industry first) 2k screen and more that's yet to be seen and people are now complaining because they're "reaching too high"?

I understand the battery concerns, but that's speculation at this point. I am not a huge fan of the UI, but I also hated the original UI on my G2, it's grown on me with the help of LGs built in themes. I, for one, am glad they are trying to make their phones drastically different.
[Verizon LG G2] whishey:
I have an upgrade I'm thinking of going to htc one m8. But was gonna give lg a chance to impress. How are the speakers on g2 I know will not compare to htc one m8.
[Verizon LG G2] googlelover:
Honestly, with viper4android installed, along with a few sound increasing options ticked on it, my phone speaker is rediculously loud, stock its pretty quiet, but the potential for it to be loud is there.
[Verizon LG G2] big70tom:
I think HTC will inevitably be gone. Everytime one of the people does something that is of really high quality, such as their recent design guy, they leave. LG is one company that has the resources to go toe to toe with Samsung and Apple. I'm not complaining, I just don't want them to lose the momentum they gained. As for LG ui? I loved it from jump... Much better than Sense or TW
[Verizon LG G2] Haxcid:
The new UI will surely be ported to the G2 at some point, as for the hardware, I don't think they shot high enough. The hardware changes between the G2 and G3 just are not enough to warrant the cost in my opinion. I am with others, I will wait for the G4 or 5 before I make any changes. The larger screen higher res but same battery is going to be an issue. I guess we will see.
[Verizon LG G2] zathus:
It comes down to what's available. None of the new phones this year were massively better than last year. And battery technology has become lateral. 1080p is already as good as it can get..2k? Will or can anyone tell? The cameras are the only real place for drastic improvements and both HTC and Samsung failed to deliver. These companies keep pushing out phones because they have too now. Annual flagships are almost required to stay relative even when the technology doesn't support the need to upgrade. I'm excited to see what Motorola will do next. They're the only phone manufacturer last year that didn't use the latest and greatest and still hit the mark. Better camera, better battery life and better screen. all fairly easy to obtain. And they have a homerun

[Verizon LG G2] SupaSwag:
Forgot which site it was but they reported on a rumor stating it would be coming to Verizon. Seeing as how Sony is facing manufacturing delays though in other markets who knows when it will finally come to the US.

As for the G3 I'm just hoping Verizon doesn't push LG around in order to have a unique variant like they did with the G2. It results in a very limited amount of cases to choose from when compared to the standard model.
[Verizon LG G2] Rippley05:
I dunno if you guys have heard of Flowly (App that has several sources for Android news like Phandroid, AH, AC, etc) but I read a few articles on there that said the Sony Xperia Z2 will not be coming to any US carriers, not even T-Mobile. They'll sell unlocked phones in the US but that's it. I don't know why, but it seems like something on Sonys end is causing issue since not a single carrier will be selling it. It's lame IMO, but things like that are why Sony doesn't matter when it comes to anything Android.

I have grown very fond of the wireless charging though.
[Verizon LG G2] big70tom:
Yeah its cool, but I'm tired of being the bastard model too. Cases are hard to find. I'm anti iPhone but if iPhone 6 looks cool, I'm tempted to get it just so I can play with cases for a bit
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
You should be kicked out of your own thread for saying that. Lol
[Verizon LG G2] ECrispy:
We don't need a 100 cases. I'll gladly take Qi charging over standard back design. I only wish Verizon hadn't changed the back buttons.

Worry about locked bootloaders, not cases.
[Verizon LG G2] JRJ442:
That bootloader is what worries me. Since they blocked Loki with KK, the G3 is going to be in the same boat. But this time with no way to push a loki'd aboot since there won't be one.
[Verizon LG G2] Rippley05:
You mean You don't need cases and prefer wireless charging. You don't speak for everyone tho. I care less about wireless charging but enjoy a variety of cases to mix it up.

I agree on the boot loader. Its gonna suck
[Verizon LG G2] ECrispy:
I did buy a case. Verizon could've gone with standard model with no wireless charging, I'm glad they included it at no extra cost. For me it is worth the compromise of having less case choice but I understand your point of view.
[Verizon LG G2] big70tom:
These devs are smarter than me, won't they be able to beat the new bootloader someway?

Hello All,

I have a Samsung galaxy S4 GT-I9505 which was initially locked by Vodafone UK and unlocked later. I rooted my phone and I want to unroot it again and go back to stock (4.2.2). Please suggest the right firmware to download and install. If you want any details of my device feel free to ask.

Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:
1. You cant go back to 4.2.2 if u had before 4.3 or 4.4.2 (Only I advise u)

2. Right firmware for ur phone depends of the zone code too. Install Kies 3 and conect ur phone to the pc. It will give the CSC (...) -> The 3 letters are what you need for know ur zone code.

3. Go to Sammobile.com, log and sig in.

4. Download and unzip the right firmware for ur phone taking a look your CSC.

5. Flash it through ODIN.

6. Don't hesitate in ask again if you need help :fingers-crossed:

Hi, i checked my device by connecting to Kies 3. This is what i found

I have 4.3 now. please help me to find right firmware as i am not sure that ill pick the right one on my own.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:
You can't come back to android 4.2.2. The unique u can do is install android 4.4.2 (latest one):

1. Log and sig in Sammobile.com

2. Download and unzip this firmware: HERE

3. Flash it through ODIN (you have the instructions in the URL I pasted u)

4. If you wanna root it, u will void ur warranty (KNOX: 0x1)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
I assume the firmware your on has knox, to confirm boot into download mode and see if there is a reference to KNOX.

If you have knox you can not downgrade. I know 4.3 was safe for a while before knox got implemented but can't remember the last safe knox free rom on 4.3.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bl1zz4rd:
I was going to start a new thread, but this one seems to be dealing with a similar problem to my own. I recently upgraded from 4.2.2 to 4.3 and then to 4.4.2 all in one day. I don't like KitKat at all and want to go back to 4.2.2. Is there absolutely no way I can do this?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Nope if you flashed official Samsung firmware you'll have knox. You won't even be able to downgrade to 4.3.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bl1zz4rd:
I'm pretty sure I uninstalled Knox. Does that not make a difference?

What is it that Knox is doing that prevents downgrading?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Knox is an app but tied into the bootloader deep down. If you've got it in the boot loader then you can not downgrade. It's the bootloader. When knox was fully implemented it bought a new bootloader. Any one on the new bootloader can not downgrade to the old bootloader unfortunately.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bl1zz4rd:
If Knox brought a new bootloader, and it was released with 4.3, surely I can at least downgrade back to 4.3?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Unfortunately you can't downgrade. As 4.2.2 was on the old bootloader. As I suggested boot into download mode, volume down and power button and see if there is a knox counter. If it says knox you have the new bootloader. If there is no reference to KNOX at all then you can safely install stock 4.2.2.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bl1zz4rd:
I still don't understand how it is that I can't go back to 4.3, since it uses the same bootloader as 4.4.

I went into download mode and my phone said the following:

ODIN MODE

Product name: GT-I9500

Current binary: Samsung Official

System status: Official

Knox warranty void: 0

I may be crazy but is this possible? Is there a program availible that lets you specify a signal code or something to be used as a garage door opener. That would be really handy!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] justintime07:
I know it is a "wizard" but there is only an IR transmitter in the thing. There is no universal RF transmitter that could communicate with anything other than cellular towers. So there's no way to operate it unless you've got a door opener that can take commands over IP.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] dragonedge:
I kinda didn't think so. But I saw a setting about Broadcast channels and just had the idea. What is that setting for?

It's probably referring to Wifi and BT channels.

the broadcast channel settings is a text based communications with your service provider to allow news and general mish mash of information it is a fairly old sevice from mobile operators.

Sure you can use the Wizard to open your garage door. You can use the latest version of Novii remote control to do that. Even though i haven't tried to open a garage door, but i did try on TV, hifi, air-conditioning, DVD and they all work fine. If you can't find it in the data codebase, you can teach your Wizard to learn how to open it, see the link here

http://www.novii.tv/pocketpc/deluxe/
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] brins0:
I don't think you fully understand what your suggesting there...

Garage door openers are RF, not IR...

If it was IR what's to stop any lowlife scum from recording the signal from the remote, and opening the door themselves :p

Nice to see people try to take this concept seriously tho, I bet you could prolly make an RF transmitter to pop in the miniSD card slot, then create software to interface with it...

Or to keep things simple, tape the remote to the back of ure pda :p
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jorge_culv:
What kind of range are you getting? I thought the IR transmitter inside Wizards was the low power/short range kind where it would only work a few inches away from what you're trying to control...
