[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dig Me Up:
I recently bought my rooted s4 mdk, came with Hyperdrive v10.2 rom. I done some tweaking from within the rom: font,center clock,icon changer ect.. . I've done a little modification such as getting dark dialer & sms, dark horse inverted g: mail,store,music. I did try flashing modem (to nc2 only to have slight heart attack seeing baseband not on mdk) then flash back to mdk. Only after reading thru the whole thread(vzw s4 forums) and flashing the zips that other Mdk users verified working.

I've read how lucky I am to be on mdk with twrp. Also seen post where people mentioning bricking there mdk, but didn't say how they did it.

I want to learn about what I can and can't do.

Like:

is there other compatible roms from other device makers : htc, moto that work on the s4 ? Understanding kernels , how to remove the ringtones from in the system (I tried delete -says deleted but it doesn't . General system knowledge. I guess in other words an Experienced person to take me under there wing and help guide me .

So coming from a unrooted thunderbolt (I would like to root the TB cuz I use it for home phone using viop app) I'm really liking being rooted with the no ads, wifi hotspot ect... and having the unlimited data plan I had to buy out of contract to upgrade. I'm glad I did some reading here to make sure I got unlocked bootloader model so it took me a few times and weeks to get winning bid. Which is okay but yesterday I came across swappa in forum rules and think my next phone shall come from there .

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Well a couple tips... Grab Flashify from play store and update your TWRP. There's an easy option to update your recovery and it'll flash it for you.

As far as everything else...

Just look for Roms that are specifically for Jfltevzw or JFLTE.

Kernels will be the same.

You can look in our Verizon Android Development and Original development. Also you can look in other carriers forums like TMobile or Sprint for Roms.

Aosp Roms give you more freedom when looking in other carriers threads since they are all mostly unified now and under the name JFLTE.

Tw Roms you may need compatibility packs if your flashing ones from other carriers or the i9505 S4.

Flashify

Under the Flash section simply choose recovery and then have it download either TWRP or CWM and it'll flash an updated one for you. Always good to update your recovery

[Sprint LG Optimus G] angelottia:
My LG Optimus G is stuck on the Android System Recovery screen. I can move up and down with the volume bar but I can select anything because you need to use the soft menu button and my screen is cracked there. Is there anyway to get around this? I've tried holding power and volume down to reset it but it just restarts and goes back to the recovery screen.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] dopy25:
The power button should be the select. Press up or down on the volume to navigate and press power when you are where you want it to be.

Is the recovery stock or CWM? The power button should work either way for the select. Hope this helps.

also if you are just trying to restart, try holding down only power for about 20-30 seconds, it should do a hard shut down, then when you press power to turn on again it should go to the system.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] angelottia:
I'm not sure if it's stock, it says Android Recovery System e3. It says to hit enter to choose an option but hitting the power button wouldn't select anything. I held down the power down and it shut off and isn't turning back on.

my lg optimus g turned off and now it wont come on or hold a charge

Well where do I start, I love this phone and I have not had a single issue with it until yesterday, took my phone off the charger in the am walked out the door , started my car went to make a phone call and my phone was off , tried to turn it on and to no avail, so i took the battery out of the phone (mind you this was quite an experience taking the back cover off) took care of that unhooked the battery let it sit for 5 minutes and it came back on like a charm , well as the day progressed my battery eventually died , so im thinking no biggie right? wrong tried to turn my phone on and nothing at all , just a solid red light which eventually cuts off but thats only when you put it on a charger and does nothing no blinking lights no power nothing. So ive been online following a bunch of different steps and the only thing i could do was put the phone into download mode when connected to a cpu but the cpu doesnt seem to see the device nor does it have power , im trying to fix this myself if possible, im really not trying to pay for a repalcement phone or wait 14 days to get another one so ill try as hard as i can here first and see if i can get some help.. PLEASE!!!! HELP!!!

I have a Wizard with T-Mobile.

My friend owns a phone (LG phone) from Verizon and she got a free trial offer from Verizon to use it as a GPS. It works really well.

Does that mean it has a GPS receiver built-in?

Is Verizon using Cellular triangulation for providing GPS like info?

Thanks
[Networking] anothersmith:
Check out www.navizon.com
[Networking] SetoK:
Yes the Verizon phones have a built in GPS. Actually, it's AGPS or assisted-GPS. The GPS gets assistance for the Verizon network. I think my phone (XV6700) uses the MSM6500 chip from Qualcomm. It's capable of operating in either Assisted or regular mode, but is set up to run assisted.

See

to get more info on Qualcomm's gpsOne.

from that page you might click on "gpsOne Overview" or "mobile-based assisted GPS"

My plan was: update firmware in fastboot, then flash the ROM in recovery (I'm assuming only cache wipe is needed, since it's stock).

I tried to start by updating the firmware, using the instructions in the thread, but am getting the error message:

writing 'zip'...

FAILED (remote: 24 parsing android-info fail)

Im assuming you're talking about the screen saying "Warning Bootloader Unlocked"??

If so, unlock your bootloader, get a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP.

Download the second zip in the OP, "logo.zip"

Go to your recovery and flash it.

This will remove the unlock message but if you check on the fastboot screen your phone will still say locked. code 2 Once unlocked you can relock the bootloader but you can never get back to a locked code 0
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reeved:
Forgot to mention that. What he said. Once you unlock your bootloader, it will never be 0. If you try to go for warranty or something like that, I'm assuming that's how Motorola or whatever will know you unlocked your bootloader and hence, voided your warranty.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ualdriver:
I'm looking at an unlocked US Cellular Galaxy S5 which apparently has the ability to take a SIM card. The model number of the phone given to me was SMG-900VZKV. I haven't been able to find any information on that particular model, but I did find information for the SMG-900V, which is the Verizon model. I'm assuming they're the same????

Anyway, if I take an unlocked SMG-900V (assuming they're the same as stated above), would the internal antennas associated with this phone be compatible with T-Mobile's network? I'm not exactly familiar with the technical aspects of the phone, but from what I have read it seems that some phones has certain antennas in certain frequencies that others don't have?

A little bit lost on the topic. Tried a search on the forum on the SMG-900VZKV to get information but no matches unfortunately. Thanks for the help!

[Samsung Galaxy Mini] MaDaLiNoSt:
Read Carefully

Any flash of any rom with recovery or Odin will void waranty!

Also rooting a phone will cause waranty lost.

Updating phone os, without samsung kies / fota.apk , will woid waranty!

Samsung waranty's expiry date is finally decided by your mobile operator.

Any change of original firmware can be detected on a Samsung service, so there's no way to restore your waranty.

Don't fool yourself!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TiTAN-O-One:
Actually, you can. Get Odin, flash Stock Firmware cos they came included with Stock Recovery.

And if your phone did not boot up or can even show a splash screen, you can go to Samsung and simply say that Samsung Kies bricked your phone. :D:D

Sent from my CyanogenModded Midget 2
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] MaDaLiNoSt:
But you can't because kies will newer flash stock firmware (non-updated one). Kies just update yor rom! (baseband/apps)

Kies, can not brick phones! Kies will never flash su binary in system. Kies will never change flash counter from bootloader.

LOGIC :p
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] TiTAN-O-One:
Nonono, kies can brick your phone quite often, i have tons of my friend updating firmwares and theirs got bricked while updating. The most common is the Galaxy Tab which i unbricked already

Kies wont change flash counter but ive seen threads where you can change the value to 0.

Obv kies wont flash su binaries (whot?)

If you scared about that Triangle on bootup, an app by Chain Fire had created TriangleAway app to cover it :p:D:p

Sent from my CyanogenModded Midget 2
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] MaDaLiNoSt:
Su binary is the file that root your phone :laugh:

Yeah, you can just ,,cover,, the flash counter. Because the date of flash is written on files! (so it can be checked)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] rhisendark:
if you are so scared of warranty. just install triangle away first. reset bin counter. then flash stock firmware. counter stays at 0.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mrktmind:
On my Windoze desktop machines I sandbox my browser in a VMware virtual machine. Which is set to start-up from a clean disk image each time I start it. This means that I'm assured that EVERYTHING I pick up during surfing sessions is deleted when I shut down (viruses, cookies, malware payloads, history, etc). Since VMware virtual machines can have their own IP on the network I can also turn off internet access to the real machine for further security.

So is there a way to do much the same on an Android tablet? Anything close? Samsung Note Pro 12.2 so I have some ram and a decent processor.

In my research I saw that VMware came out with a virtual machine product for Android last spring. And discontinued it this spring. I'm guessing Google, Samsung, et. al. had something to do with that. But so far that is all I have found. Would like some kind of open source solution.

Thanks for your suggestions.
