[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mryounghc:
So maybe a month ago I decided to upgrade to nc2 firmware and bootloader so I could use sprint port.

I used mobile odin to flash route66 and all went well until I discovered that I lost root because i didnt install properly. Not easy when your usb doesnt connect to pc! Anyways, i was finally able to root with an apk i found here and got twrp working. Good thing I made a backup. Every time I install a rom it never boots up. Looks like it just turns off. Even if I try to power on it wont do anything but vibrate once. No logo screen or anything

I have to boot to recovery and restore from there. Am I missing something? I get succsesful install but nothing happens after. I tried sprint port and likewise rom. same thing happens
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
Yeah sorry but that will happen when you update with mobile Odin, you need to update with PC version. Try different cable, usb ports, uninstalling kies, reinstalling drivers, even different computer

I have Dutch M600. How can I download the F/W? Maybe I could post it (upload of FTP). Any ideas?

Cheers
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] mccune:
There is not a Dutch ROM available for Orange yet.

If you want to know wich ROM are currently most used check the Prophet Upgrading section.

Do not upgrade unless you know what your doning! There is plenty info about this here on XDA
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] djmisi99:
HI guys ( devs, users surfers alike),

I have an S4 i337 AT&T, with locked MK2 bootloader, been on Android 4.3 since i bought this phone online, and everything was working perfectly.

I had it SIM unlocked, rooted, SafeStrap-ed, custom ROMs running perfect on t...NO ISSUES!

Ever since I upgraded to Android 4.4.2 with Deadly Venom's Magic KitKat Tool,(installed the 4.4.2 Cutsom ROM, flashed the mldmodules.zip, flashed the superuser 2.00 zip, ODIN'd the AP, BL, CP tar files right away ...everything on any 4.4.2 ROM works perfect, except 1 major THING: ==> NO GPS fix, ever! ON any of the 4.4.2 ROMs...and I tried like 8 so far....

ANybody knows how to fix this issue? I mean, I travel a lot, I need to be able to use Google Maps, Sygic, CoPilot, OSMand+, and none of them get a GPS fix!!!!

I will attach pics one is with HyperDrive RLS15 ROM (Android 4.3) showing full GPS signals, the other is with SHOstock -i v7.0 ROM, no GPS signals at all...

There will be a screenshot of the "About Device" as well ... notice I am on the MLD baseband, since I have the MK2 locked bootloader...

What should I do, folks? Flash a different modem, module? WHICH exactly, is there any fix for the GPS signal on the 4.4.2 ROMs, because without it, being on 4.4.2 is useless... rather go back to Android 4.3 ...

Im sure lots of you guys on the i337 AT&T, rooted, SS'd, with the locked MK2 bootloader have figured out a solution to get a good GPS fix (signal) on the 4.4.2 ROMs ... somebody please send me a flashable zip solution, for us who have this issue.

BTW, I live in the heart of Budapest, Hungary, and not on some remote island, so I MUST HAVE tons of GPS signals coming in and floating around me, that "Location" is NOT the issue here ...as you could very well see from the screenshot where I do get lots of GPS signals when I am on Android 4.3....

THX in advance for any of you folks out there, who can provide us with a viable solution for this tiny, but MAJOR GPS issue on the 4.4.2 ROMs.

I await your kind replies.

\\// Peace out

I've had the same problem since I first upgraded to KitKat a few months back. I've tried every solution known to no avail. It's frustrating since turn by turn nav has always been a feature I've used a lot.

If anyone has any new ideas please let us know..

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] djmisi99:
So you have the same issue... Turn-by turn NAV is awesome...only if we would get a fix on GPS on our Galaxy S4 i337 ...

FOr how long did you have 4.4.2 on ur phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] kevinco1:
I upgraded to 4.4.2 about 6 months ago. First installed 4.4.3 about 2 months ago and have been running 4.4.4 for a week now. I've installed just about every ROM available for the S4 and did all those fixes and installed GPS apps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] djmisi99:
4.4.4 ROMs? Can you give me some examples, links to these? I would love to check them out. SO, do you have a working GPS fix in your phone, or no?

lemme know
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] kevinco1:
There are a few ROMs that have been updated to 4.4.4

Up until today I was running which just released an update to that version: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2767026

Anyone else have any ideas for this GPS issue??
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] AndroidState:
My GPS never locks on any Rom since 4.3 except for Hyperdrive 4.3/4.4.2.

What is so special in Hyperdrive? I copied Hyperdrive's GPS.conf and it didn't help.

Maybe Hyperdrives dev can tell us which GPS files he has in his ROM to put in our roms?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] djmisi99:
THX for the links, I will stay on the best ROM there is: SHOstock's SHOstock-i v7.0 i337 XXUGNF1 4.4.2 ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2468860)

It needed a couple reboots, and GPS works flawlesly ...so turn-by-turn navigation works, be that Google Maps, Sygic, OSMand, etc. ...

FOr those of you that it doesn't work, try flashing an earlier modem ( MK2, or MDL) from RockRatts forum (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2496517)

If this helped you, hit THANKS, folks...not a big deal, ya know? Much appreciated :)

I'll attach some pix as proof that there is a very good GPS fix/signal

[Samsung Gear Live] kilometers4:
What made everyone choose this over the LG G watch?
[Samsung Gear Live] big_b0sss:
i went for gear live because it has amoled display and the silver thing on the two side makes the watch look a bit premium
[Samsung Gear Live] enko420:
Don't forget it's also $30 less as by the end of the year we ALL know we will be owning superior devices anyways.
[Samsung Gear Live] big_b0sss:
i actually paid £10 more as its priced higher than lg g watch in uk
[Samsung Gear Live] chumboy:
I absolutely cannot believe they did not include a speaker! I just returned the gear neo 2 because it was running Tizen and not Google wear. making phone calls on it without pulling my phone out of my pocket was the absolute greatest feature.I ordered the gear live because it was running Google wear, thinking of the future. Now I find out it does not have a speaker so I can not make phone calls from the watch. I'm going to return the gear live and go back to the gear neo 2. Wrong decision Samsung.
[Samsung Gear Live] enko420:
I honestly don't care for making phone calls on my Gear 2 Neo. If you aren't in a quiet room its near impossible to hear what they are saying.
[Samsung Gear Live] chumboy:
To each their own.

But it's fascinating to know you don't like it.

I had the Gear 2 Neo for about a week and had good results when not standing in Time Square.

Gear Live 2!
[Samsung Gear Live] das7771:
I would like the ability to turn off the motion sensor, sense everytime I move my wrist a certain way my watch just turns on.I look at my watch ocassionally and notice that the screen is on I have indavertenly been touching the screen selecting things. I prefer to touch the screen to turn it on. I have already turned off the screen always on option, but would like to turn off motion as well. Would extend the battery life alot further.
[Samsung Gear Live] adiliyo:
i'm 100% in the not taking phone calls on a watch camp for the same reason i don't use speakerphone when not in a car.

but i would have liked a speaker simply for alarms and stopwatch/timer funcionality. nothing crazy, just a simple beep/chirp would have been enough
[Samsung Gear Live] chumboy:
See, we can find common ground here! A speaker would make us both happy.

Surprised that Sammy decided to remove a hardware feature rather than adding them (to a point).

Their research must have shown that the cost/benefit was upside-down.

So it goes.
[Samsung Gear Live] hashcheck:
They should have stuck with Gear 2 features and gwear os. I'm sure it will be ported.... I love my Neo 2
[Samsung Gear Live] StevenMattera:
I have a feeling that Samsung was forced to make the watch according to Google specifications. (No Speaker, No WiFi, Single Button for turning the device on) There is also a WiFi antenna in the Gear Live that is not being used according to iFixIt.
[Samsung Gear Live] adiliyo:
antenna but they couldn't confirm if there is a wifi controller on the mobo, could just be the cheapest way to order that part for assembly.

i agree that samsung was probably told to stick to the reference design which i'm fine with, but it's curious that google decided not to include a basic speaker for alarm use in the reference design for android wear.

i am however much happier (so far) with the watch than i expected to be. if moto prices the 360 out of what i'm willing to pay, i'm actually satisfied enough to hang on to the gear live until i can get the moto for a reasonable price (i won't pay more than $250 for the 360)

---------- Post added at 12:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:32 AM ----------

i like the general design of the gear 2, but i am so glad that android made wear, i see adoption for this from a developer standpoint to be much much better than any proprietary garbage os that samsung puts out. and personally, i dislike samsung devices (read: touchwiz) and plan to stay away from them for the foreseeable future.
[Samsung Gear Live] peaklabs.net:
I don't know, I've been reading about the gear watches and android wear all day and I still just don't see it. Anything that's on there I would normally pull up my phone for, and the small watch screen version and limited functionality (no speaker, small screen, etc)... I think if I get any notification I'll end up pulling out the phone and responding there anyway... Is this stuff just a lazy persons solution to a problem that doesn't exist?? If wear devices were more like little phones with built in wifi, IR (I think some gear watches had this?!), etc at least you could use it to control your movie watching experiences...

I'm probably just getting old and wanting stuff to stay how I'm used to it :)
[Samsung Gear Live] Maturola:
I think that IS the point, so you don't have to pull your phone 100 times a minute for every notification, it is trying to "change" the way we use the phone and not trying to replace it. For all that "extras" (Wifi, Speaker, etc, etc) you have the phone.

I love it, I hardly touch my phone now, the battery life on my phone had gotten so much better and I am more interactive responding to all SMSs and facebook/Whasapp messages than before. :laugh:
[Samsung Gear Live] adiliyo:
the watch essentially becomes a (more useful) implementation of notification triage, i can see what's important and respond to many things without taking out my phone.

it comes down to the user and their daily flow of usage. the big difference with this vs a very limited and closed off system (like samsung's system, or sony's for that matter) is that it leverages two things.

1. android itself as the platform (no seperate market, no need for seperate apps and figuring out how to make sure the apps work with the phone versions)

2. google now, which i think in the long run is going to be the real centerpiece of the platform. as it gets smarter you really will need to use your phone less for basic things since it will offer up the information you need when you need it with even less interaction necessary from the user.

the biggest deal breaker for the samsung system (for me) is the need for a crappy galaxy smartphone. i can't stand touchwiz and the lag samsung's software developers can't seem to get rid of in the many iterations they've had of their software.

i also enjoy the freedom of leaving my phone at my desk, or at home on the charging pad and just checking things on my watch as i go about my day.

i think i like android wear more as i don't want a tiny phone on my wrist to look awkwardly at and speak to people on. i want a companion device that lets me get on with my day and look at my phone less. it's a change in mindset and workflow that pulls you out of your phone and lets you get back into the world.
[Samsung Gear Live] sbrownla:
Yeah ... I'm constantly having to refer to my phone, more with this than I had to with my Galaxy Gear ... After two weeks with it, I feel like I'm done and ready to go back to the Galaxy Gear for good.

But I don't want to give up on it for some reason. I think because what it does do it look better than my Galaxy Gear, in terms of UI. And the always on is very nice.

I dunno ... Maybe I should have just gotten a Gear 2.
[Samsung Gear Live] chumboy:
As I said in my previous post...I went from the Gear 2 Neo to the Live.

Found out it didn't have a speaker after I ordered it.

Tried it out for 3 days and (same as you) had to refer to my phone more.

Called Google to send it back and the Rep said "yea, surprisingly we're having allot of returns b/c of no speaker and many going back to Gear or Gear 2."

They sent me an email for to fill out stating why I'm returning. She said they're interested in feedback for the next model they release. I hope they listen.

I went back to my Gear 2 Neo and am patiently waiting for the next model (with speaker I hope).

They had the same with the Gear 1, made some changes and launched the Gear 2.

Don't waste your money on something you won't use and be happy with.

Wait for the Gear Live 2.
[Samsung Gear Live] sbrownla:
I think I'm going to suck it up though. When the next one comes out I'll gift it or sell it for $100 or so to subsidize the new one.
[Samsung Gear Live] asoutlaw:
I feel like they left out the speaker so they would have something new for the next version of the hardware.

Samsung has already shown that having a speaker not only works but the battery life is about the same as well.

I picked up a Samsung Live to replace my Galaxy Gear. I'm really missing the speaker but I love having Google voice vs S-Voice.

I also don't like the fact that they decided to silo the alarms and timers to the watch. A small vibration on the arm isn't going to wake me up in the morning. And I did like the fact that I could set the alarm from the watch (which I would use for the sleep timer) and when it went off I could turn it off from the watch.

It seems that they left out some voice commands also. I can't set any calendar appointments from the watch but I'm able to use the same "set appointment" command from the phone and even my desktop browser. I guess this will get updated sometime in the future.

At this point I want to stick with Android Wear since I think that it will be a powerhouse at some point. But I can't help but to be a bit disappointed at some of the features that I've gotten used to on the Gear that can't be found on Live.
[Samsung Gear Live] ruckartj:
I have a Gear 1 running Tizen. I do like it but want to do more voice commands to watch and S voice just doesnt cut it for me so hoping google now is better. My biggest hardware feature I think I will miss is the camera. I use my camera now often for a super quick pic or video of my grandkids doing something that I would otherwise miss by the time I pull out my phone. I ordered my gear live yesterday and will receive on Tuesday.
[Samsung Gear Live] DJ41:
I actually bought the LG G Watch R first. I tried it out and I didn't like the round display. I know they made it that way so it resembles a real watch, but the look and feel of a round display was something I could not get used to. The screen quality was very nice though. I returned the LG and got the Samsung Gear Live. It's much more comfortable on my wrist and the display is just as good in my opinion. And it saved me a lot of money too.

go to mounts and storage if you have CWM or wipe advanced wipe if in TWRP

format/system in CWM

Check system in advanced wipe in TWRP

flash the rom

reboot

If you are trying to install 4.1.2 you need to:

wipe/date

wipe/cache

flash the rom

reboot

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Hi I am looking forward to taking my S5 with me on Holiday and looking to take some underwater pictures and videos I understand there are certain ways for this to be achieved I'm currently on x-note rom rooted,

I can take pictures with the volume buttons but it seems I have to start a video out of the water and then hope that the video does not stop when the water hits the screen.

My question is, Is there anyway of changing this so I could use one of the volume keys to start and stop a video? Also a way to disable the stop recording button on screen as it seems the water hits that sometimes and stops recording.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DistrictDigital:
Im not sure about video, but you can use a remote camera controller to take photos underwater. You can even do it with another smart phone. Just Google "remote camera app" and you'll be able to find what you need. :)
