I dont think you should have a problem. I swapped the digitizer with no problem. The other stuff- on/off, volume, etc are just controls. Should have no effect. For the meid, just take the one off the back of the tab. Make sure you copy it and keep it safe. Just to be sure l later.

Hi All.

I have 4.0.3 version on my ninetology stealth i7520 version which I bought in Malaysia. I would like to know if I can install the newest version of Android or any other higher version? Basically this device has only 512 mb ram,1.0 GHz processor and 500mb + 2 Gb internal memory. So I dont know whether anyone had experience on rooting this device on higher versions, if yes, how does it work? any trouble as ram isnt so large?

thanks for your advises.

First, already Samsung Galaxy s3 sprint got kitkat and it's very unlikely for us not to receive the kitkat. Second, I don't mean the Knox application,,but the bootloader, I know about efuse but I'm not sure about something. For example if Samsung was sure that they will develop later a software like Knox and had put efuse inside the s3, but inactive until this update,?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
The sprint s3 has different hardware, the i9300 won't be getting official 4.4. Don't see what the fuss is about, having used 4.4 on the s4 I was only impressed by how many things didn't work, like flash and any apps that use the external sd.

Okay, here's the biz. My wife's phone needs updated, and I'm not sure of the best way to do it. She's rooted and I want to keep it that way, as she needs her wifi-tether.

She's not s-off. I tried using moonshine and rumrunner to no avail, even though I had met all pre-requisites. rumrunner recommended I flashed a less-stable kernel and try it again. I'm not real interested in doing that.

I was trying to s-off so i could flash the OTAs that are on xda.

I have studied posts on here for about 4 hours now and have not come up with a solid answer.

The only things we need are root and the newest 3.17- firmware and possibly radios. Can anyone send me to the right place?

Can I just ruu the newest software?

Please. Thanks will be given.

Phone specs:

freshly ruu android 4.0.4

sense 4.1

software 2.13.651.1

s-on

bootloader unlocked

hboot 1.19.000

radio 1.12.11.0803
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Magnum_Enforcer:
Check the top link in my sig. There is a link to all applicable RUU's at the bottom of the first post (I recommend reading the entire thread), including the 3.17 RUU and the newer 4.13 RUU. Running the RUU will update your software, firmware, HBOOT, etc. The RUU is probably the quickest way to get everything up to date, in my opinion. Just download whichever RUU you want to install to your computer, connect your phone to your computer while the phone is booted to the OS, double-click the RUU file and follow the on-screen instructions on your computer. You may also want to install HTC Sync to your computer, as well. After running the RUU you'll need to unlock your bootloader again, install a custom recovery and SuperSU for root access. If you want to S-off the phone once it's updated, again, check the top link in my sig for further info.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pof:
Hello,

The available original shipped ROMs for the HTC Hermes have .nbh files with the RUU, instead of the usual .nbf files found in other HTC rom updates:

By now, there are two shipped ROMs available, containing:

HERMIMG_Dopod_1.23.707.1_SHIP.nbh

hermimg_QtekNOR_1.18.255.3_Ship.nbh

So, it seems that the usual nk.nbf file is no longer used by the Hermes RUU :(

I cannot extract the various rom components (ExtROM, OS, IPL/SPL, SplashScreen, GSM radio, etc...) out of these files using the usual TyphoonNbfTool, however maimach's prepare_imgfs finds the imgfs and dumps it apparently ok, but it cannot be read using viewimgfs or itsme's rdmsflsh.pl, so I guess the dumped file is invalid.

Anybody knows about this new format?

is it possible to convert it to nk.nbf so we can cook our own roms?

Would it be possible for example to extract the radio rom from Dopod and replace it on QtekNOR rom?

[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sensonic:
I'd like to know how to backup developer unlocked WP7 with Win7x64 computer and the latest Zune version?

I've now tried:

- WP7 Easy Updater -> didn't work. Gives me an error message and leads me to Microsoft's support site.

- Windows Phone 7 backup v.1.9 -> didn't work. Gives mw an error message "the input string was not given in the correct order..."

I've tried Zune4.7 dll for the later one -> same thing, didn't work :(

Is there a way to make a full backup of your unlocked/developer unlocked Windows Phone 7 with any (other) software? I'd need to replace the micro-SD card of my Dell Venue Pro from 32Gb to 64Gb and wouldn't like to loose the music I have in the isolated storages of some Marketplace apps. I've even tried Isolated Storage Spy tool but it doesn't allow to access to the isolated storages of Marketplace apps.

Any help is highly appreciated! Thanks a lot in advance!
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FerretallicA:
I've just gone through the onerous process of trying to export my SMS messages from an original HTC Trophy (WP7.0) with Chevron unlock.

Things like SMSBackup don't work (target a higher version of Windows Phone, and hacking the xap manifest at best got the app deployed but not running). Backup programs like the ones you listed did nothing. Something called WPV App Data Backup at least connected and created a bunch of folders but they were all empty.

In the end (after literally years of on-and-off attempts) I gave up on the SMS messages and let Zune do its update. Turns out that Zune does a backup to "C:\Users\JohnCitizen\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Phone Update" (or your equivalent) before it applies any updates. It's not a FULL backup in the sense that I'd understand the term, but it includes the isolated storage of apps which seems to be your main concern.

If your phone is already up to date I'm not sure if there's a way to fake an update or force Zune to do a backup as if it were preparing for an update but that might be your best bet.

Side-note: the pleasant surprise was that I didn't need the backups anyway. I've applied 5 cumulative updates to bring the phone to WP7.10.7720 and it still has the SMS messages and app data (meaning I could apply the interop unlock and get my SMS messages out with SMSBackup after all!).
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sensonic:
Thanks for the advice but the phone is already WP7.8862 so it cannot be updated anymore. But I've tried both of the aforementioned apps and neither of them seem to work :(

Another possibility I've been thinking is a sort of "blind copy" of micro-SD if that's possible if the backup of Marketplace apps (and their isolated storages) is not possible. Well, I'm willing to try just about everything to save the music that I have in my phone. It'd be really painstaking and time consuming to download all that music (once again) to my phone after replacing the micro-SD card.

Speaking about your phone, why haven't you installed a custom ROM to it? I've installed custom ROMs to my HTC 7 Pro (Dynamics 2.2) and to my Nokia Lumias (Lumiatrix, don't remember the version right now). And my LG Quantum I've unlocked with the registry code. Makes a life a whole lot easier. Too bad no-one has found a way to port a custom ROM to Dell Venue Pro since I already would've done it. Well, developer unlock will do then...
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FerretallicA:
Originally because I wanted to backup/export my SMS messages. Now I've finally worked that out I don't really care about the phone. Windows Phone is a horrible pile of sh** compared to what Windows Mobile was, much less what Android is now, is so I have no desire to waste any more time on it.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sensonic:
Yeah, you're right. Android is much closer to Windows Mobile than Windows Phone is.

But the reason why Windows Phone and iPhone are so closed systems, is their information security.

Android is quite open system compared to those two aforementioned ones.

I do have some Android devices but I've still decided to stick with Windows Phone. It's the best (well at least for me) OS for business purposes.

Just looking for a Windows Phone 8.x device with the physical QWERTY and possiblity to jailbreak it...

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] tx_dbs_tx:
Make sure you odin the wifi fix from your pc if needed and also make sure you're on the mk4 modem prior to flashing the mk4 hotspot hack. Last but not least, you must be on a deodexed rom in order to flash the hotspot hack. If your rom is odexed then id bet that's your problem. Post back with your findings.

That rom is also deodexed so yes you can flash the hot spot hack and tether will work on Smooth rom. Like I said, I bet his problem is that his rom is odexed. Switch to a deodexed rom and flash the correct hotspot hack for your modem version and it will work.
