[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Hmm. In that case, the only approach that comes to mind is to use a less-obsolete phone that can either sync your SMS from somewhere (does Android back them up?) or can import your file.

In theory, you could probably write an app (on PC, even) that would parse the XML and upload the messages to the WP8 message sync service, but that service is not documented in any way that I know of so it would take a lot of work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] eisawi99:
So i got this phone yesterday, and i came from my old Galaxy S3. I am used to rooting and installing custom ROMs on that device and was wondering if there was anything I should be aware of with this phone. I do plan on rooting it in about 2 weeks depending on how I feel about touchwiz then, but for now i would like any information about possible brickings due to knox. thank you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] j00manji:
DO NOT USE Kingo root. - I wish I saw that earlier

I tried to use it. ended up failing. Then I followed qbking77s' instructions which also did not work out well for me. I bricked my note 3 and tripped knox on the first day I got the thing lol.

Thankfully I was able to find an odin-flashable to push over to my device and everything is ok. still gotta root the damn thing tho.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] CollinsB:
Number 1 Rule!!!/ General tips

1.) Heres the big thing about the note 3.

You cannot revert (odin flash) back to previous builds of the note 3, it will soft-brick (maybe even hard-brick) your phone.

Meaning if you are on NC5 its not a good idea to dowgrade back to NAB. This is a smaller jump but ive read of issues. Though NEVER try to odin from kit-kat to Mj4 jellybean. They have different incompatible bootloaders, and it will brick. So ya no downgrading.. Unless you really feel comfortable with "engineering boot loaders" But currently the newest build is "NC5"

2.) think the most convenient root method is to..

-put chainfire's UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip onto sd card

http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU

-odin twrp 2.7.01.tar, (found in original development) or link

http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/201

-immediately boot into twrp (Home+Power+Volume Up) and flash UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip

reboot

Now rooted with twrp recovery to flash new roms

3. Just another warning. Factory reseting with STOCK recovery for this device wipes internal sd card.

Edit/Add on: About knox: Dont worry too much about it. Once your rooted on stock rom, it will probably prompt to attempt to disable knox. just hit okay and thats probably the last you hear about knox. When you flash a new rom the rom devs have it disabled so it never prompts. But ya knox isnt really much of anything but a counter in download mode. Yes it cant be reset, but thats about the only thing that cant. You can still be fully unrooted, with official status. You probably wont have any problems with sprint. Theyd have to check download mode for the 0x1, and they would have to know what that means too lol. And you definitely wont have problems if you have sprint warranty.

Hope that helps good luck, I love this phone! :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
I 2nd what CollinsB says, SuperSu v1.94 best way to go to root your note 3. You also might look into Philz CWM recovery. As for KNOX and your warranty don't worry sprint and Samsung have not turned down a warranty fix that I'm aware of. Besides, They have already figured out a way to reset KNOX on the Exynos processor its only a matter of time before they solve KNOX for the Qualcomm processor.

One of the best things you can do, is disable touchwiz!!!!! Install the nova launcher, better, faster, and more features. Enough said!!!!

But I had change MID and CID to ASIA model.

Do this change made system variance ??

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Use the 1st method. You don't really need root but you need TWRP installed. And most important S-Off.

And no problem if there is root. OTA will remove root.

After change of MID done, simply reflash stock recovery .. then OTA.

OTA will not run on TWRP or any custom recovery

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] Brazilian Joe:
I can successfully use the machine as a modem on 2003SE, but like you, so far it has been a no-go to use it as a modem under WM5.

Then I thought:

Is that the ONLY way to make my PC use the GPRS connection to browse the web?

NO!

Windows can do ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) since windows 98, and windows mobile is a Windows CE tailored for, well, mobiles.

I digged into MSDN looking for info on whether CE had ICS capabilities or not. Turns out YES, it has.

Now, if we can find out how to enable it, we can make a BT PAN to the PC, and use the routing/NAT capabilities of CE/WM5 to browse the web.

Now, look at this, which I got on MSDN, my comments are in italic:

<snip>

Microsoft Windows CE .NET 4.2

Enabling NAT

The following steps show how to enable NAT for a Windows CE-based device using IPv4.

To enable NAT

1. Enable IP forwarding by setting the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Parms\IpEnableRouter registry key equal to 1.

2. Set the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing\EnableAddressTranslation registry key equal to a non-zero value.

3. Set the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnectionSharing\PublicInterface registry key to the public interface on which you want to enable NAT. now, where do I find THIS value?-->This value should contain a string that indicates the adapter instance for a network card, or that indicates the RAS connection name for a dial-up connection.

Now the key is where do we find the 'adapter instance or RAS connection name', so that we can try this solution.

NAT mappings expire after a certain amount of time if the mappings are not used. The default expiration time is 24 hours for TCP connections, and 1 minute for UDP mappings. You can configure these expiration times by setting registry subkeys contained under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\IPNat registry key.

The following table shows optional registry subkeys that you can use to configure these expiration times.

Code:

Subkey Description
TCPTimeoutSeconds_ Specifies the amount of time before TCP mappings expire in the NAT, if the mappings are not used.
UDPTimeoutSeconds Specifies the amount of time before UDP mappings expire in the NAT, if the mappings are not used.

</snip>

Which can be found here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wceics/html/ceconEnablingNAT.asp

The advantage of this solution is that we won't have to stop using the PDA and opening a program to make a notebook navigate the web while on the move. In short, we cut off some bureaucracy from our connection management.

Enable/disable packet filtering, might be nneded to change...

Re: Figuring out ICS(NAT) capabilities for PC-to-GPRS connec

Actually I think it is the other way around: The BA assigning an IP address to the PC.

If I look in the IP config after I connect my BA, I see this:

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Windows Mobile-based Device #2
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 80-00-60-0F-E8-00
Dhcp Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : Yes
Autoconfiguration Enabled . . . . : Yes
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 169.254.2.2
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :
DHCP Server . . . . . . . . . . . : 169.254.2.1
Lease Obtained. . . . . . . . . . : Thursday, September 14, 2006 11:15:37
Lease Expires . . . . . . . . . . : Saturday, October 14, 2006 11:15:37

What would look to me that the BA is the DHCP server.

Looking in Settings\Network Cards on the BA, I see the Network card "Remote-NDIS Host" is in use with the above IP address.

So, maybe there is (limited) DHCP server allready in the WM5 OS? I guess the OS gurus may know the answer about it.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] fraser:
There is a mini-dhcp server, it's listed in the docs. Yes, looks like the BA is doing it under ActiveSync like you say. I'll take a look tonight at the reg keys while I've got an active activesync session going. However, using activesync doesn't enable ICS on the phone I'd imagine, so perhaps they are separate systems. I was presuming they were part of the same thing in the same way that ICS works on 2000/XP.

The DHCP server isn't required, but it saves you having to deal with manually adding routes and DNS servers. By the way, the docs also make mention of a DNS proxy which we'll need to deal with eventially.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] fraser:
What does the cab do? Does it just set some reg keys or does it start a service? I suspect that was my problem earlier; updating the keys is not enough, you might need to make some service/application actually read them.

Unfortunately, most of my networking experience is in unix/linux, so I'm limited in how much I can help here. I know what I need to do, just not how. I know most of how Windows works WRT to configuring various network setup and so on, it's just with these pdas you are very limited in getting debug info out. Are there any good command-shells for the pda? If yes and it has access to the "route" command then we should be able to at least see if the phone thinks ICS is active.

Thank you, helmi_c, all works very well on your WM5 ROM with AKU3.2 (v.1.3.2 Beta)! :) Is is only needed to set one reg key (as mentioned is first post by Brazilian Joe):

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Parms]

"IpEnableRouter"=dword:1

I check connections via USB and via Bluetooth PAN - all works ok!

To all who want ICS:

- Install IntShrUI.cab from helmi_c and set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Tcpip\Parms\IpEnableRouter to 1 or just use .cab, that i attach to this post - this is a .cab from helmi_c to which i add a changing IpEnableRouter to 1.

- Turn off BA, wait 20 sec, then reboot.

- For the first time after each reboot you need to run "Internet Sharing" 2 times (UI is shown only on second run).

- If the PC have some kind network adapters - disable them all (except Bluetooth Network - if you connect via BT), and also you may run "route delete *" from windows command line to clear route table. This will ensure, that windows will set correct IP address of default gateway (this IP address - is a IP address of BA) after you connect BA to PC.

- On the BA, in Internet Sharing program, select PC connection type and Network connection, and press "Connect".

- Then connect BA to the PC (to USB if "PC Connection" is "USB", or connect PC to BT Network Access of BA, if "PC Connection" is "Bluetooth PAN").

- If you connect to BA via BT PAN - ensure, that BT of your PC is configured to "Allow other devices to create a private network with this computer" and NOT to "Allow other devices to access the Internet/LAN via this computer" (this is from PC widcomm stack, that i have, if you use other stack - search similar options ). If you don't do this - then you got a error from your PC BT stack... something about "not possible to make LAN if both devices configured as bluetooth access points" or like this. Also, for me, the ICS over BT is not work until a set HKLM\Comm\BTPAN1\Parm\TcpIp\AutoCfg to 0 (the default value is 1). If for your the same - set AutoCfg to 0 too. After connecting PC to BA, BA show warning "DHCP server cannot be contacted...." but for me all works (may be because before i have successful connection via USB) ... this will need more investigation, i think :(...
