Their is a no. of dependencies are full firmware flash upgrades like in htc - system,hboot,radio which are needed by the rom to work that is why I suggest full RUU/Firmware flash instead of just updating the required manually :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frenetik:
Okay. thanks. I'm still S-ON. Do I need to get S-OFF using Revone to lock the bootloader? Then go back to S-ON and use the RUU to

get back full stock? Then update to stock 4.4.3?

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmoooney:
Back when I was using my LG Optimus G Pro on AT&T I was able to enable tethering verification bypass by editing one of the tables in an sqlite database in com.android.providers.settings from a 0 to a 1.

Hoping and praying that it would be just as easy, I went looking in the same location and alas, did not find the same table entry I found in my LG OG Pro.

I am on a grandfathered unlimited plan and would like to be able to share my data with my other devices as I have for the last 5 years.

Can anyone assist with this matter? Or is a custom ROM my only option?

And just to note, I've already tried FoxFi and all it does is access/modify the stock tethering options. When I try to turn Tethering on, it says "verifying" then directs me to ATT's site to add tethering to my plan. WHICH I REFUSE TO DO. :)

Thanks in advance!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmoooney:
Just FYI I tried adding the entry: tether_entitlement_check_state 0 to the settings.db and rebooting...but when turning on the hotspot, my phone still tries to verify with ATT.

I myself used titanium backup to freeze the system app "tetheringprovision". Then I use a widget to enable/disable Wi-Fi hotspot. You might get a force close once, but after you setup ssid and password you shouldn't anymore.

Other users report this method working.

I'm thinking about getting a note 3. If he didn't have root access, as I wouldn't, is there any option for tethering (without paying extra pointlessly, of course)?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 440bro:
You either need root access, or to pay for it. Root access is available for the at&t note 3.

Hi guys, i have a s3 i747 that has been unlocked and ready to be used on other gsm networks.

I went to a metropcs store and had the phone activated and sim card inserted, my imei was connected fine and everything went great.

I instantly had EDGE(1x or 2g) and even after hours of searching and phone calls to metropcs all i can find is APN solutions that dont work.

I currently live in Dallas/Ft Worth so i know the LTE coverage for Metropcs/Tmo is amazing it just ill not connect to LTE.

How do i get LTE to work on this device ??

Phone Specs

Has root

Unlocked

S3 i747 from At&t

Worked fine on At&T for LTE

Su keeps for closing at start because it says security issues

Stock rom on 4.3 but it says custom build under about settings for some reason.

Data speed is about 0.09-0.10mbps

Any help would be great. Sorry if this is a repost of other types of threads but i never found answers and did not want to re awaken old threads. :cowboy:

This issue seems popular this week.

If it's like the others, it's an issue from unlocking. the nv file gets damaged. The solution so far is to use nv-reader-writer to copy another phone's nv file and replace yours with it.

i have the drivers installed, it sees my ports for the phone, i go to connect and it does, but when i click read device it fails. Ive had no boxes checked, one box checked and both boxes for spc and fast read(i think it is) checked. No Go either way. Any suggestions for this? Then i can see if the NV Writer is a solution.

Like dial star, hash(number sign)twice, the 4636 and star,hash star, hash and go to device info, then screen shot, then scroll down and screen shot again where i can see "set preferred network"

also man are you sure you have the S3 I747 from AT&T??

Make sure you are checking your connection in Settings > About Device > Status > Network Type

[Moto X Q&A] doitinthedirt:
This bugged me so I googled it... should be nailed to the top of the QandA forum.. every Moto droid ive had original, droid x, droid 3 and razr m have had this but moto x doesn't have it until you root and activate it??? Did they hire Homer Simpson as the new developer... wait.. it's the google maps idiot.. http://www.xda-developers.com/android/surprising-news-moto-x-has-a-notification-light/
[Moto X Q&A] br0adband:
The fact that Active Display works and the X8 chipset was designed specifically to provide that functionality - that Active Display IS how you receive notifications - seems perfectly logical to me. The Moto X is not a Droid device, it doesn't act or work like one in most respects, and the Active Display + Touchless Control are both aspects that further create a divide between the Droid line and the Moto line.

I get the idea of a "notification light" but I mean really, if people don't buy a Moto X to make use of Active Display and whatever, why the hell are people buying it? :D
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
It won't work as a notification light. Actually, I think cm or something got it to work ONLY when the phone is plugged into a charger. Kinda pointless. Lol

It will work as a battery charging indicator with a tasker profile. Or app made by tasker.

But yeah, its not really a notification led.

So if it isn't plugged into a charger....it won't do anything.
[Moto X Q&A] lopezpm:
I like the active display way better than the light. Seems like a step back. On the other hand I hate restrictions so they should have made it an option in the strange case that someone would prefer it.
[Moto X Q&A] Arak-Nafein:
It's not a notification light. It's a light for when you are charging a dead phone. It cannot be setup as a notification light....did you even read the article you linked us to?

The Moto X has Active Display, so it doesn't need a notification light....the screen IS the notification light. The green light behind the speaker HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH NOTIFICATIONS.....so I don't know what you're on about.

You don't have to "manually activate it"....it already works & functions as intended out-of-the-box. The light comes on when you plug up your dead phone. That's how it was intended to function, and that's how it functions.
[Moto X Q&A] pintasmapila:
I use it only to light up when the battery is fully charged.

If i could have a active notification for this, i would preffer it :)
[Moto X Q&A] danny39:
It's not a notification light, it's for when the phone is COMPLETELY dead so you have some indication that it's charging. They didn't put a notification light because ActiveNotifications was designed for this phone.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Assa551N:
Hy everybody. I am going to buy a Nexus 5 but I saw that the benchmarks points are more little than the same hardware LG G2 and Sony Xperia Z1. Why? Is there thermal throttling? The hardware is same, but Nexus 5 always gets less benchmark points. Why? Because of thermal throttling? Please help me, thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
first off.. the lg g2 and the n5 DO NOT HAVE THE SAME HARDWARE. the n5 would be the g2 if it did. they share the same cpu that is tweaked differently for each device. also, stock g2 will bench higher that a stock n5 because the g2 includes a propriety optimized dalvik/bionic. these differing proprietary dalviks/bionics can be flashed onto the nexus 5 as well. when you add these dalviks/bionics to the n5, they tend to score much better. have you ever seen a g2 score this? my nexus 5 did..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Assa551N:
Thanks you so much. :)

Which optimisations do you use?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
personally, i enjoy the z2 dalvik/bionic on my n5 and n4. it gives me the highest numbers.

but thermal throttle does exist. and will slow down your cpu above a certain temperature(to cool off). since i do enjoy the benefits of root, i keep thermal throttle disabled 100% of the time, and use the thermal shutdown temp of 105C as my safety :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Assa551N:
And last question, which ROM and kernel do you use?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
always rastakat or lichtis rastakat rom and trinity kernel. lichtis rastakat at the moment. and im part of trinity kernel, so always trinity kernel, as shes part of me :)

[Amazon Fire Phone] brunes:
Seems really expensive to me given it's specs and the fact that it does not run the Play store and likely locked to AT&T with a locked bootloader.

This is not a Galaxy S5. People expected this phone to be priced more like a Google Nexus or Kindle (ad subsidized), but all they ended up with was run of the mill AT&T pricing.

The functionality is cool but at this price I wonder who is going to buy this phone. At this price, people who want an Android will stick with LG or Samsung, and the others will get an iPhone... who is going to go with Amazon? What is the selling feature.. being able to play with maps in 3D?

I was a big fan of the LG 3D and moved on to the LG 3D MAX. moved away from the 3D MAX due utter lack of support from LG in terms of software upgrades. Was looking forward to this phone since the rumours started as I loved the 3D technology. Unlike many people, I had no issues whatsoever in viewing 3D on the phones.

This phone turned out to be a whimper instead of a loud bang!

[Amazon Fire Phone] edwpang:
Agreed. I don't even notice any pixels on my Note II with same resolution but much larger screen. Once thing I don't understand is why they are still using 4.2.2 as base android branch. What's so difficult to move to newer versions? With the growing popularity of wearable devices which need Blue LE. They should at least use 4.3 as baseline.
[Amazon Fire Phone] MGREX:
I was very skeptic that amazon would launch this thing subsidized like it did with the kindle since probably everyone involved knew the risk of the phone becoming the cheap powerful phone everyone is flashing custom ROMs to instead of using the heavy data mining fireOS that would pay for the devices.

But amazon went the exact other way this time and with these prices its obviously making money with each phone sold, much like apple, while shipping an almost generic slab with no custom hardware besides 4 extra cameras for a laggy 3D UI effect, unlike apple with all its custom hardware and design.

IMHO this thing aint gonna sell squat, so I'm gonna wait until bezos panics and makes it $99 unlocked.

Then I will honor the deal by wiping out that spyware crap it comes with:D

A tablet is One thing But a Phone? This will have the same fate as the Facebook phone. Take away the Amazon apps and this thing is just another brick in the bunch. That 3d effect might be cool for a little bit but I bet i gets anouying after a while and its style looks Ugly. DONT GET ME STARTED IN THE PRICE. It is almost guaranteed it will be locked better than Ft. knox.

The facebook phone was incredibly half-assed compared to this.

The problem with the FP is price and price alone, everything else can be forgiven but the price is just batcrap insane, what were they thinking? did they not learn anything from the first iphone price? for the record that one too was at&t-only and it didn't sell well until apple dropped the price.

For amazon to get the marketshare it wants this thing should be $200 unlocked
[Amazon Fire Phone] N1ESE:
Mine will be here today, paid $0 out the door went with the monthly ATT Next deal so I will at least only have to wait a year to upgrade again instead of two years as in the past. If it weren't for the free Amazon Prime for a year, since I do so much business with them each month, I probably would have passed on this phone but my S3 is messed up and I wanted something different. This will definitely be different.

No, one year of prime + signed up for one year of ATT Next. Regardless, the phone is going back tomorrow since Amazon refuses to return my phone calls, answer my emails, and their "Mayday" button isn't working at the moment on said piece of **** phone.

Edit: and I haven't paid anything yet. I am returning this dogpile, if ATT wants to pro-rate me as part of their "Next" plan, they will be talking to my lawyers for teaming up with Amazon for this crap.

Same here! I'll further defray my cost by selling my Nexus 4. I'll probably keep the Fire phone for a year and get something else. I'm not seeing that many good options for me right now.
[Amazon Fire Phone] slimbobaggins:
You would think that, and I was about to order one for myself, but after reading reviews on it.... not sure I really have a use for it, even at a $100 price point (when you account for my Prime renewal). Can't run google based apps, little to no dev support because it's an unpopular phone... unless there's some other aspect of the phone you like (like the dash cam potential), what is the main draw to purchase this phone?

After reading a few reviews on it, I feel like I'm better off spending (several times) more money on a different phone. It might be alright if you rooted it and blew away with Amazon OS with a custom Android ROM... but glancing in the dev section, it doesn't look like anyone has done that.
[Amazon Fire Phone] boonesmi:
it will just add 1 year if you already have prime (ie. if you have prime and it expires april 2015 it will be extended to april 2016) also if you buy more then 1 phone it will add 1 year for each one bought. (ie. if you buy 3 phones you get 3 years of prime)

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:02 PM ----------

with this fire sale hopefully it will become a popular item that will garner developer support. (kinda like happened in 2011 with the fire tab)

its got the hardware, now just needs a good OS :)
