[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poulsej:
Many many many thanks C3C076.

I made a mistake with the block sizes and ended up formatting the whole phone.

I flashed with the latest THL W8 beyond offical firmware and all good again!

Strangley the only thing that was missing was he IMEI numbers for each sim slot but I added them in ENG mode.

Maybe this is a question for another thread but I rooted and tried out the THL GPS fix but it doesn't seem to help much.

The stock w8 beyond rom doesn't seem to handle EPO.Why are the EPO options in the standard android settings greyed out and downloading EPO via the engineering menu fail ??

C3C.... if I could buy you a coffee it would be a large one !!

Dear Developers

I'm sure you already heard about the GPL around the forums. In case you did not, the GPL ("GNU General Public License") is the most common license that affects many projects, like the Linux Kernel (the Linux Kernel is licensed under the GPLv2). This affects us, XDA and its members, as we are often working with the Linux Kernel (every Android platform runs on top of the Linux Kernel).

You may ask yourself now "Well, that's nice, but how does this affect me and what does the GPL do?" The answer is pretty simple actually: The GPL guarantees users to examine, modify and share their and others code by enforcing open-sourceness. This means you are free to use any GPL'ed sourcecode for your project, but you must make your used code publically available again.

Now, as many advantages this has, it also means quite some work for us developers. All used sources must be completely public by the time the compiled binary (like a Kernel) goes online. Another requirement is, that the OP must include all information to compile the exact same binary as uploaded by the developer. This means you need to specify:

The used toolchain including its version (linking to your toolchain source is always a good idea)

The used defconfig

The link to your sourcecode (including the used branch, tags,...)

If used, also upload your scripts used for the compilation

If you upload a kernel, publish the source, but the source is not compilable, it means you are breaking the GPL as you did not release the used source. Breaking the GPL actually means breaking the law, which means the sanctions on XDA could possibly be the least of your problems...

Example:

@ROM devs, using a precompiled kernel

As you are not compiling the kernel yourself, you do not have to give the above information. However, you have to link to the source of your kernel binary (for example: link to the OP of the used kernel). If you use the stock kernel, you must state this. Linking to the stock sources is not a requirement, but it is not the worst idea.

Keep in mind; if the kernel used is not GPL compliant, your ROM is not GPL compliant either. This may cause your thread to be closed and/or further action on your account may be taken.

hello

just posting about this windows 8.1 tablet atom z3740 based like every other tablet 2gb ram 32gb ssd

i think

but it has android 4.2.2 no playstore (but u dont need it with android)

but yeah here is a link its 299€ tablet ah its okay 1micro usb otg (no full port) 1micro sd slot 1 micro hdmi and a ugly keyboard with no ports (its a slim keyboard i guess)

http://www.danew.com/fiche-produits-dualboot-i1012.php

its french

to lazy to translate

but its okay i think and has a touch windows logo (only thing i find better then the asus t100 who hasent one its only a sitcker there)

or look for the thomson thbk1 its the same. only logo is different. http://www.amazon.fr/Thomson-THBK1-10-32-Tablette-daccueil-Microsoft/dp/B00JE4OK40

tested it a little, mouse pad isnt clickable. and has no Full usb port.

so its a no for me.

here some pictures
[Windows 8 General] Graveen:
yop,

mini to normal usb is provided.

tablet is cool. main problem is the oleophobic surface sucks, but android is working nicely.

no playstore no root for now. 4.2.1 only.

I'm still trying to backup the whole emmc chip, but i have troubles

once it'll be done, i could quietly try to root it. Should not be very problematic if we could have (and i see them in partition manager) access to ext filesystems.

lcd is correct, although resolution is relatively low and max luminosity could have been brighter.

still looking for a forum of users, seems there are not atm :)
[Windows 8 General] reggiexp:
yeah but the trackpad on keyboard has no click? i tried in shop but couldnt click it.

and yeah but that means no external HDD (u need full usb port that gives power) if i want a tablet a full usb port should be great to have

and yeah but u can install playstore no? just download the apk?

but its cheap. just want a cheap tablet

the only no reason for the asus t100 is the 'no touch windows logo homebuton) if that was a capasitive key i would buy it.

it has usb3. and a great battery.

i will wait and see if there will come other 300€tablet with windows a bit better.
[Windows 8 General] Graveen:
Yes i agree - i was mainly interested in Win + Android, but honestly, this is because i need both. This is not so bad, but this is globally the worse of both:

- for windows, what you mention (not enough power for an hard drive, barely for an usb thumb, no clic - you have to use touchpad, n right clic - you have to keep pressed the touchpad). Impossible to boot to usb thumb too, etc... (or i did not found the trick)

- for android, actually we are locked at 4.2.2, and basically, i spent 4 hours trying to root and install playstore, but i have not a single information on the HW (i need to grab it all at hand). Having access to Android partitions from Windows help a bit tbh, at least i hope.

last, tomorrow there are discounts on http://www.vente-privee.com and it seems they are selling this tablet. Generally thoses sales goes very low, worth a look.

(comme je vois que tu es FR)
[Windows 8 General] reggiexp:
oui je men doute vente privee cest francais (c'est pas une site de arnaque sa?) j'aime pas ce site... , bien ton anglais si non.

yeah realy for a windows tablet full usb port is a must

and yep touchpad is bad... its a okay tablet cheap. budget.

i would like to have android on the other tablets from windows

like the asus. or HP not that i need it but still it's usfull. for some apps.

its a great idea just the tablet is not a great idea. sucks

i will wait for the new cheaper tablets. with big battery. like the asus. (realy sucks only one thing that i dont like makes me not buying it)
[Windows 8 General] Graveen:
oh ****, they are more expensive than Amazon's, which is selling them @ 289€. VP is selling them @ 350€ !!!
[Windows 8 General] reggiexp:
i just wanted some feed back on this tablet. i think i will pass.

wait for a new tablet that makes me smile and say YES i want that.

there are some at cdisount hp pavilion x2 11 (intel celeron n2910) but can't find any thing about gaming or battery life noting about it. price is okay

370€ 4gb ram 64gb ssd. but dont know about battery noting to find about it.
[Windows 8 General] Feregorn:
I bought this tablet from France a couple of months ago, because the combination of Win8.1 and Android 4.2 in tablet form is rare and because the price seemed very fair for the product. Since then, I have used both OS and have been quite satisfied. I installed the Amazon market with which I have access, just like the Play Store but without needing root, on all my apps and they play great on the Android OS. and I also sideloaded some games. The Win8.1 works as expected, most of the time it is reasonably fast but sometimes lag and freezes occur. But its certainly NOT way more often as the freezes I experience with my i7... They just happen, randomly and rarely. I played Ducktales Remastered on it and the game played silky-smooth. I'm encouraged to try other more demanding but kinda oldies games, like Kotor, Age of Mythology Extended, etc and see how they respond. Office and PDF work is easy to do, way better than on any android tablet (and I suppose the same applies for iPad). Having a full PC version of Office is really something irreproachable at the moment and the pre-installed software keyboard is very intuitive and good at predictions. I have installed firefox and I didn't have any problems with demanding sites such as the desktop version of Youtube. Sound is very good from the speakers, much better than my OPPO Find 7 and the screen brighttness is also very strong for me. The colors aren't as punchy as other screens though which is a very small bummer. Build quality is also good. The tablet isn't the thinnest around, but it has a solid feel, mostly plastic, without any strange noises so far... The keyboard is something I really like too, because it's obvious it was made for this specific tablet with the magnet dock attaching strongly and properly, and buttons that feel good. The mousepad requires gestures to use, like double tapping with two fingers to open the right-click menu and I don't find it bothersome at all. Battery life is good, but not very good. When I have a lot of work in the university (main reason I bought a tablet) I find that I can only get 2-3 days of use from the Thomson tablet, but when I use it more intermittently it can last nearly 1 week even when on Win8.1 in sleep mode.

Overall, I'm very happy for my purchase, because I was searching for a tablet that would be a minimized version of a laptop and choosing between the Thomson, Venue, Asus Tranformer models at this price range, I decided that the inclusion of Android is a bonus because it's a more casual and less battery-hungry OS that I could use alternatively, if the only thing I wanted to do with my laptop was to pass the time playing games, watching movies, or reading the news. And the Thomson Dual-Boot tablet performs admirably on both fronts and I believe that I've chosen right.

how do i upgrade this tablet to windows 10 and delete android that is useless.. most app not capable with android 4.2 now...

and i cant upgrade the pc i only have 2.7gb free and i need like 4gb...

Those of you having trouble after a Rom Flash. If it goes wrong, start by pressing THE BACKLIGHT BUTTON, THE POWER BUTTON AND PRESS IN TO THE SOFT RESET HOLE ALL at the same time. This should put you back into BOOTLOADER. Then try your rom flash again. If the WM6 fails I re-flashed with the O2 EXEC WM5 first. Forget Active Synch saying it cant etc.

Providing you can just see some very faint words then you are back in bootloader. I have got the original O2 XDA EXEC WM5 Rom files so if you want them, as I can not find out how to put a large zip file on here then I can email it to you. Let me know on

officially it doesnt. but unofficially..

it was never approved by the fcc to have an lte radio, but does, to band 4. since it officially doesnt have an lte radio, it officially doesnt have lte. but it does. its lte capabilities have been disabled by software in its newer radios, but have been readded in modified radios that could be found here on xda. that, with the right apn, and some other numbers to change, it works with tmibile lte, as tmibile uses band 4 :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djinn23:
Hello all.

I have had a friend give me a phone from China. This was already running CM10 when I got it and was the international version of the SIII . I have a work iPhone and took the ATT SIM out and placed it in it. I understand I cannot get LTE connection with this device... but the SIM did not appear to be recognized. I looked and there does not appear to be any unlock process for this phone with this software and I did not believe it was SIM locked as the owner told me he slapped regional SIMs in it when he traveled.

Does this imply hardware failure or am I missing something stupid here?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
Try different sims first.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djinn23:
Thanks for the reply

Hey THanks for the reply. Any suggestions as to how I can try alternate SIMS. Shoudl I walk into ATT and ask they replace the SIM for my IPhone as it is not working in other phones or should I buy a smart talk prepaid SIM or something. Any suggestions. Sorry for the seemingly stupid questions.

Regards.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djinn23:
I tried two att sims with no lucka nd one tmo. I took it to a shop where theyb replaced the reade and still no dice. Technician claimed bad radio flash, but the networks are seen... seems like sim reader. The other thing I noticed is that the device says wcdma on in. I know the chia carrier is gsm and the phone is supposed to be. Any thoughts?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djinn23:
not to resurrect but....

So I have had some updates. I took it to a local shop who attempted to replace the reader and said that a new one had the same issue. I then spoke with my friend who gave it to me and he mentioned some CM issue with SIMs being recognized. I updated the ROM and it worked well for a couple of days. THen I started having intermittant instances of the same issue..... until it completely recurred again.

I have taken it appart and resat the connection (thinking the repair guy didnt do it well and maybe that was my issue) but had no differnt results. I have tried a new ROM (SlimKat) and a couple of Kernels. I have not gotten into modem flashing yet as I am still trying to parse and understand the data there.

The Repair guy thought the modem was misflashed and that the installer who flashed CM11 messed it up. He suggested getting a Stock carrier ROM on there. I thought he was full of it and did not know what he was talking about... esp considering there is no domestic (US) carrier image for the 9300.

Thoughts or options? I have an i747 that I have been using but it does not have an unlocked SIM yet and I have been struggling to make that happen (EVEN WITH A CARRIER PROVIDED CODE??!!!).

Thanks in advanced for any assistance/insight you can provide.

Regards
