How does it go when using the cover as a kickstand in landscape? It looks similar to the note 8 case which I could not get to stand up correctly, the 2 fold in the case would never stay put and the tablet would fall flat. I want the Samsung case cause of its build quality but only of it does the job it is advertised to do.

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Accessories] FitchVA:
I understand this. But when I try to use the magnet and cover to "fold" into a stand, the magnet doesn't seem to be very strong. It doesn't take much effort to have it all fold flat and crash to the table/desktop.

Hi, so unfortunately I dropped my N4 on concrete yesterday and the screen took a hit..worst of all, there is zero touch response.

So I was looking at eBay and I can order the new screen/display part for $55 and follow the DIY tutorial on YouTube...or there is also just the glass/digitizer on eBay for $20. Will the latter option work?

Otherwise I'll just order the entire unit.

[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tacks86:
Hi all, I've been a lurker for the past few months and have finally run into an issue that I can't seem to fix without some help. I have a Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 that I tried using a one-click rootkit on (Kingo Android ROOT) and it has soft-bricked my tab. I have already done my homework and found the one or two extensive step-by-step guides, and have downloaded Odin to remedy the issue, but I am having difficulties tracking down the firmware. I downloaded the given firmware from sammobile (it took forever and also, there is no USA firmware listed? I downloaded the British instead), and when I try to extract the data from the compressed folder, it tells me that the file doesn't exist and that I probably typed the filename in wrong. I am all about working things out myself but this one has me stumped; and although I consider myself technologically savvy, I am nowhere near the level of most of you on these forums. Also, I would be fine with just doing a hard reset, but the only mode the tab will boot into is download mode, so I can't do a factory reset unless there is another way (can't access settings, and will only boot to the galaxy tab 3 logo screen or to download mode, neither of which do me any good). Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamethriller:

Can I ask you where I could get this stock rom? I am planning on getting CM11 but I wanted to have a contingency plan first. View attachment 2732544
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype74:
You can get original stock ROMs from : sammobile.com/firmware

Type on dailer *#1234# to see your current AP, CSC and MODEM version. Notice or note your AP,CSC and MODEM version (you need it if you want your original firmware back)

If you want your original stock ROM back then go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/2/ type your noticed version in the fields (PDA, CSC, MODEM) and download it. done! :)

Check Screenshot!

Note : you need a SamMobile account for downloading firmwares
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raziel54:
Thanks! One more question, I have read that the kernel also changes when I flash CM11, if I would like to revert to Stock do which file is the kernel? Is it the PDA, CSC or Modem? I'm now downloading my stock rom from sammobile thanks to you!
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prototype74:
In PDA :)

if you install a custom recovery example TWRP or CWM then you're able to backup your current Stock ROM and safe it on your PC, laptop or external SD card till you want it back ;). If you want your Stock ROM back then you can simple restore it via custom recovery :)

Note : a backup of the Stock ROM take very often more than 2GB!

Good luck with flashing ;)

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Bsmith0731:
Good evening everyone. Traded in my s5 today And got the m8.

Few questions. Does HTC show the screen on time?

And does the data icon always show? Even with wifi on and data off?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Only in the History graph in Settings. Where it used to just say the screen on time in hours/minutes/seconds was removed on HTC phones a long time ago (since Sense 5? Can't quite remember).

Yes, that's a normal AT&T thing. As long as a data network is present, the data icons will show up (even if you aren't connected to the data network).

If you flash a non-AT&T base ROM, the data icons will only show when actually connected to the data network.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] shockdaddyd:
Thx for the reply, Vijay555.

To answer your question, it's been on for about 24 hours. I've performed a soft reset no fewer than ten times. I've also turned the phone off and removed the battery for a spell. Nothing is helping.

Strange, this device was performing flawlessly until a few weeks ago. Now it's the wonkiest phone I've owned to date. I still love it but have considered throwing it against a wall.

One other note: When I put the battery back in and the phone is OFF the light comes on. Go figure.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] vijay555:
Sounds like a hardware fault. Backup and then hard reset.

If you find it necessary to throw it at the wall, please throw it my way, I need to get hold of a Wizard to finish VJCandela!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] shockdaddyd:
I was hoping to avoid the hard reset. Too busy with work and can't afford to be fooling with the setting it all up right now. Might have to sacrifice the light.

you can get a trial version of SPB back up that will back up your phone, install that, back it up, then hard reset and run the back up to restore all the stuff on your phone.. no need to worry about setting it all up... however from what you described about the phone being off and the light coming on sounds like a hardware fault.. but a hard reset is worth a try
[General Questions and Answers] gogaz_:
Hello,

I just bought a counterfeit Xiaomi MI3 in a phone mall in Hong Kong :crying: and I'm wondering if there's someone out there that could help me dealing with it. :(

BI'd love to root it (or even flash) but I'm stuck, here's the problems:

no recovery (at all) : I got android boot error image when I try to select it from the PowerButton+VolUp menu

no flashing: various errors when trying to flash system or recovery from fastboot ("partition 'recovery' not suport flash" and when flashing system it prints "erasing system..." then nothing, I ^C after a long while and it booted fine )

no answer from the fastboot oem commands (maybe this is ok )

still no root , I tryed to do it by hand as seen on some web tutorial but the first step "adb remount" says I don't have permissions

I also tryied the "root most qualcomm devices" but this did not work and shows some unreadable content (only chinese chars but not printed so it looked like a lot of squares)

So, what do I have ? Currently system works so far, so that I got adb and everything.

i also got a "factory mode" in chinese when pressing Power+VolDown, i've found some translation of it but it's not helping : there's nothing excepted components tests and some useless informations.

Actually I got no idea of what precisely the hardware is but i assume it's something close to an official MI3 because most specs match, actually I don't really know what's missing otherwise that I just mentionned.

Do you think this is a good idea to go deep in rooting and flashing or will I just brick it ?

Any suggestions are welcome :)

I could post photos or whatever needed.

And the most strange thing is that I have the IMEI in the phone, just that my network connection leave and come. But comes for only 5 sec, so it is always with no network status. I made an EFS backup and restore it but no results.

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] mrwangkai:
*Intro*

I've seen my fair share of glass screen protectors, ranging from my Galaxy S2 protector from Spigen (2011~) to a super cheap $3 glass screen protector on Amazon for my girlfriend's iPhone, which came cracked and felt really cheap and shoddy overall (branding, packaging). I figured I'd go for something more mid-ranged for my Galaxy S5 and wound up choosing the Movaluate 7 glass screen protector.

*Contents & Packaging*

The screen protector came in a heavy card stock enclosure, backed by a solid piece of cardboard, which was all wrapped by the main outer sleeve. Although it wasn't as sophisticated in construction as some of the other protectors I've seen (Spigen, Tech Armor), it seemed to do the job well enough. The outer sleeve was quite attractive with a matte/glossy contrast and holographic accents.

Along with the screen protector came a microfiber cloth, and dust removal stickers. No home button this time, presumably for the fingerprint ID feature.

*Installation*

Installing glass protectors for the most part is easy due to their rigid nature—just align with the home button and then slowly guide/lower it into place. Nothing fancy like suction cups or hinging tape here. The adhesive applied without any fuss, and any bubbles disappeared in less than 15 minutes.

I typically install my screen protectors in my home bathroom after running a hot shower (to pull the dust out of the air), but I applied this one at work so there were some specks of dust but they are imperceptible with the S5 turned on, and negligible with the display off.

*Fit, Finish & Feel*

For it's $15.99 price tag, it can definitely compete with the best of the screen protectors out there. Although it is a relatively thicker at 0.4mm, I prefer this for its better durability and impact protection. The screen protector covers the display perfectly, edge-to-edge and the cutouts for the speaker grill and home button are both cut to very precise tolerances

One of my biggest gripes with PET and other plastic film-based screen protectors is there feel. They are usually either too tacky, or just don't feel as good as the stock display. The Movaluate screen protector feels just as good as the stock display if not better—buttery smooth and resists fingerprints and smudges.

*Final thoughts*

I should also mention that the optical clarity is spot on and that the edges are comfortably rounded, making them compatible with most cases. Overall, very satisfied with the product. Time will tell regarding it's durability but based on its well manufactured appearance, I believe it will perform well.

You can buy them from their Amazon shop or on their website which has some interesting videos as well

Hope this review helps you make a good choice for your Galaxy S5!
