[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoelhoCaolho:
Hello people, i've run in a little problem with my S3 where it stuck in the brand screen not even the cyanogenmod boot shows up after i followed an advice to "recalibrate" my battery after i complained about low battery time.

A cousin told me to fully discharge and even after it shutdown reaching 0% that i should hold the power button and keep powering on until my phone can handle it, it turned on at least 3 times more after reaching 0% the first two times showing the Cyanogenmod boot logo, and the last one it lasted a long time on the first boot logo before powering down alone. After that i pluged the charger and waited the 100%.

Now the problem is that the phone is unable to boot, recovery and download mode still works i'm using Clockwormod 6.0.4.6 with Cyanogenmod 11 M8. I'm still able to wipe everything but i noticed a little problem showed up when doing data/factory reset:

On advanced> Show log:

Thank you in advance and sorry for my english. If possible how should i proceed to restore my precious? :D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
You've corrupted the system or data partition, flash your firmware with full wipe.

Don't discharge the battery on these phones, it can lead to a brick.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Fully discharging does damage to the battery and does no good. It's an ill advice.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CoelhoCaolho:
Thanks for the answers and knowledge, boomboomer and Jack_R1.

I've tried a full wipe, but it didn't work i've used all wipe options even /system and tried reflashing but i probably did something wrong.

One solution that worked howerever was "The Cure for All Problems :silly:" flashing stock rom with odin.

Again thanks for the help! Cya.

Hi. I flashed CloudyG3 and like it so far.

Just one problem. LG streaming player is missing. I extracted the apk from a nandroid backup but can't install it. Always getting the message "app not installed".

Any ideas what's missing or what I'm doing wrong?

[Sony Smartwatch] Miichaell:
Hi, I have Smartwatch MN2 and looking on SW2. My phone is Xperia Play with Android 2.3.7 - I don't want to update to 4.0+, cause gaming with Xplay on ICS+ is horrible. I know that officialy is everywhere written you need Android 4.0+, but I want to know if watches cannot connect to Android 2.3 and really need ICS+ or if they could be connect well but some features and apps don't work on GB. I'm going to buy new phone in about a year or two probably, but now I still want my old Xplay cause playing on touchpads which is built into phone is simply ingenious :)
[Sony Smartwatch] sigrokBlack:
Try to download the official app from the playstore . If it works you could have a chance.

I think that there will be some things you can do because some bluetooth things were changed at 4.x. and a lot things are running at your phone , because the apps are running on your phone and not at your SW

Maybe you could try the SW at you your local store?
[Sony Smartwatch] suljo94:
nop this won't work because the watch needs the android 4.0+ bluetooth. i know a guy who tried it and the watch refused to work
[Sony Smartwatch] RyanEJ25:
Might be time to upgrade....
[Sony Smartwatch] Miichaell:
So after half an year I bought them and tried it. Smartwatches connect to the phone via bluetooth without any problem but then you need Smartconnect aplication (for GB is only Liveware which is for MN2 and older) and app right for SW2 (Smartwatch SW2 in play store) - in GB play store you can download only Smartwatch app (for MN2). So there is no HW problem, only SW. I flashed ICS rom and Smartwatches working fine - but 512MB RAM with ICS and Smartwatches connected is horrible - gaming is immposible. I want try take Smartconnect and Smartwatch 2 apks and push it to GB but I thing it will not work.

Hei all.

After reading through the forums hour after hour I finally give up :(

I got my german O2 XDA Mini s here

IPL 2.21

SPL 2.21

GSM 02.19.11

OS 2.21.4.2

I want to up/downgrade to the Qtek 2.18 NOR ROM. But the big Problem is that if I connect to PDA to my laptop via USB it is not recognized?! Also on a other laptop it didn't work, although it worked earlier. Even a hard reset couldn't help it.

Second thin I read is that Wizards with SPL/IPL 2.21 or higher can't be flashed with a other ROM then a Provider update.

But now I found this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=271043 were it is made possible. I made my new ROM image. Now I only need to bring it on my miniSD Card und make the XDA load it from there. And that's my problem. How do I make a "bootable" SD Card und make the XDA a boot from there? I only found I manual for the Magician....

Would be great if someone could help me!!!

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] huangyz:
press and hold down the Camera button then jab the Reset hole will bring the device into Bootloader mode, connect to your Laptop and have a try.

for reflash from a SD card containing rom image, press and hold down the Camera and VoiceDial key simultaneously, jab once the Reset hole, then, release the Camera key FIRST, keep VoiceDial pressed until sth like below showing on the PPC screen:

[FONT=宋体]Restore ALL image from SD[/FONT]

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kiteOregon:
what files need to be on the SD card? Do they need to named something special for the wizard?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] huangyz:
there's no "files" on the SD card, i said, it's only "rom-image".
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dfc-neo:
Thanks Huang!

I'm nearly there ;)

No the only problem left is to prepare the bootable SD-Card. If wanted to use the XDAtools http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=219261&page=7&highlight=create+rom+image

If I didn't missunderstand it, this should solve my problem. But when I give my nk.nbf made in the first thread as a input file the XDA OS Image Tool tells me that it is an unsupported file format and it doesn't know how to open it :(

I just unpacked the Tools and registered them. Is there anything mor I have to do to make me a SD-image?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dfc-neo:
Ok, nex step. When I go into the Bootloader, i get an USB connection. Hell knows we not in normal mode :-/

But this forum is just too big ;) I couldn't find a way to get a new ROM to my Wizard in this way...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kyphur:
From here you can run the Rom Update Utility on your PC and it will flash your device.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dfc-neo:
Ok, that easy? ;) But it doesn't work :-(

I get the connection, tested it with a terminal, it is realy connected.

- When I use the RUU from risidoro (see my first post up here) I get ERROR [300] STRUMENTO DI AGGIORNAMENTO NON VALIDO. I'd guess that means something me device is not valid???

- If I want to flash with RUU_Prodigy_2180704_21807104_20710_QTEK_NOR_Ship.exe it also connects and all that stuff, but then it told me my nbf file is too old. (I got SPL/IPL 2.21 :( ) ERROR [296]

- If I extract this RUU manually and replace the nbf with the one handmade, and start ROMUpdateUtility.exe I get ERROR [238], can't open the file.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] kyphur:
Search for this file 'ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe'

It will think that your phone has Rom version 1.2 on it and thus will allow you to flash any Rom image.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dfc-neo:
yeah, thats what I tried first and got ERROR [300] and this Italian Error message:(

I would be very interested in this since my USB connector broke. Hope you find the answer for this. Anyways, I was able to do an upgrade of OS and downgrade it using awizard via BT connection in my CID locked phone.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dfc-neo:
How did you do that?? Because if I try to update via Bluetooth I always get Errors :-/
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] clemsyn:
BT update

Well, actually I did a backup of everything using Awizard (via USB when my connector was working) and then I updated just the OS using some tools. Here is the link http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=56088&start=0. Then I rename the extension to nba so awizard can read it and then used awizard to update only the OS. This was all with USB cable. Then my toddler got a hold of my phone while charging and broke the USB connector.

Got sick of the 3.2 rom then took the risk of downgrading to my old OS via awizard using BLUETOOTH. It took some time to update and have to make sure my phone don't turn off during update. Anyways, now I have the 2.26 OS back.

Hi everyone!

I've been digging the nets high and low for a simple way to flip (mirror) my PNA's screen, in order to make it into a HUD (Mio C720b with WinCE 5.0) an so far I've come up empty, in that I couldn't find out if it's possible at all or how hard it could be (I'm obviously no programmer...)

Is such a feat achievable or am I daydreaming?

Thanks!

[Nexus 5 Accessories] vin4yak:
Hello people! :)

Few weeks ago I came across this awesome store @ etsy.com where they make handmade pouches made of Jeans material from the outside and fleece in the inside. I fell in love with the pouch as soon as I saw it. So I ordered one with yellow fabric inside (Yes, you can choose the color of the fabric from the store itself! There are 10 colors to choose from). It even has a magnetic strap closure! I placed my order on the 28th Of June and the seller (Linda) shipped it on the 1st on July and I received it today (12th).

The quality of the material used is awesome and so is the color! She sent it enclosed with a kind off a gift wrap with a bow and a letter. The pouch feels really premium and I'm extremely happy with this purchase. Only thing that sorta bothers me is that I have to push my device firmly to get it inside the pouch. But I'm sure it will loosen up after a couple of weeks.

The price of the pouch is $19 and the cost of shipping is $5 (To India). A bit on the higher side may be since it's handmade but it's really worth it!

If you don't want the Nexus imprinted on the front of the pouch, it will cost you $15+shipping. You also have a choice of opting out of the strap.

If you want anything else done, you can contact her (Linda) directly and she responds quickly! Will surely give a 5/5 for the communication (before and after the purchase).

I'll attach some pics of the pouch and gift wrapping as well. The color reproduced in the pics is slightly off. It's a dark blue pouch with bright yellow fabric inside it.

Here's the product page if anyone's interested in buying it!: https://www.etsy.com/in-en/listing/173355035/nexus-5-nexus-4-sleeve-case-pouch

Hello guys,

Well i was surfing the other day on my Phone and at once i had a message that my S3 was having a virus etc,

Of course i knew it was just a phishing thing, but i guess it probably found a way into my phone,

As i get every now and then, most likely 2 times a day 6-8 ads at once on my notification bar,

They just get the title like this:

Contra 2015!

Market://details?id=com.dongphong.contra

But that for like 6-8 other ads aswell,

I deleted my cache, used a few anti viruses but nothing realy worked so far.

I hope you guys have a answer due i aint sure anymore..

Hey,

Well do i realy need to do a format of my whole phone?

I have like.. 100+ apps.. wouldnt like to download those all again.

Also these ads come with the symbol of a message, but then with 8 ads, with that same symbal like you would have had a message pop up in your notification bar,

That happens every so often, my best guess is random after 2-5 hours

Thanks for offering the help tho
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChinShiong:
Sounds like some rogue app with push adverts.

Next time you get such a notification, long press on the notification and choose App Info. That will tell you which app is responsible for the ads.

And don't forget to leave a low rating in Playstore to warn others.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dr.Luigi:
Hey,

Just did that, and it was a app game for gold mining lol... you know that ancient game.

Kinda silly of me, i tryed every anti virus but just had to go to app info, damn damn.. when you need it the most you forget it..

Even tho no antivirus nor push detector could find it..

Very glad i didnt wipe everything for that one app!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhilke:
those ads are not cz of some malwares or something like that. those ads are the ads from the google adsense. the app developer used adsense for some earnings. so you cant get rid of it unless you use a paid version of the app.

Hello friends. My videos will demo the browser experience between the Asus Transformer Infinity TF701 and the Samsung Galaxy Tab S.

Secondly, I also added a demo using the Asus Transformer Infinity TF701, shown zipping through the graphic intensive website "The Verge", over at theverge.com

Asus transformer Infinity TF701 -

[youtube]St1l1Vaw1so[/youtube]

Samsung Galaxy Tab S -

[youtube]boC30ZGk4Yc[/youtube]

Asus TF701 Browser Demo - using the graphic intensive website "THE VERGE."

[youtube]Ej9oihvs3ZU[/youtube]

Now furthermore, try getting the Samsung Galaxy Tab S, to work that website, just as smoothly. Isn't going to happen, unfortunately. I just showed you a platform (Asus Transformer Infinity TF701) that blows away our Galaxy Tab S. The old proverbial saying, "The Proof is in the Pudding." As much as we love this device, Sometimes we have to step back, from behind our rose colored glasses, and call a spade a spade. The Web browsing experience, on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S, is abysmal at times.

Lastly, with using the Samsung Galaxy Tab S and Asus Transformer Infinity TF701, I've also benchmarked multiple third party web browsers, along with the stock and chrome browsers . Here are my scores using Vellamo:

Asus TF 701T -

Samsung Galaxy Tab S -

Samsung Galaxy Tab S (Default Browser Benchmarks)

Samsung Galaxy Tab S (Chrome Browser Benchmarks)

In my closing statement, I'd like to say, I can live with the sub-par browsing performance, but with this device being a year older than the Asus, Samsung should have figured out, at least by now, how to make the stock browsers more efficient..

So what is my hope? That Samsung sees this and figures out a way to improve our Web browsing experience. After jumping over to Samsung from the Asus Transformer line, as it stands now, it's not competing with other manufacturers , whatsoever . If you have any ideas on how to improve our experience, or have any improvements you'd like to see Samsung put in place (either in future updates or in their next iteration) feel free to post them here.

People the problem is that Tab S is having a problem processing Javascript for some reason. Disable Javascript on your browse and the Tab S will be every bit as fast as the Asus.

it has nothing to do with the amoled screen. This is a SOFTWARE issue, not a hardware one.

Some web pages won't load properly without Javascript. As an end user I just want good browsing experience regardless it's a software or hardware problem. I hope Samsung will fix it soon.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mike infinity:
That's not my experience with the note 8. The updates for that device go all the way to kitkat with pretty significant improvements in performance along the way. Samsung has already released an update that improved things pretty well for UI lag, etc.

I also feel like its worth mentioning that in my option the browsing experience,... even on sites like the verge.... is hardly a deal breaker. The only thing that seems to lag (a little) when I browse that site is quickly swiping from the top of the homepage to the bottom and back up again. OK...but when do I browse like this? If I just read the site like people normally do the scrolling and pinch to zoom is very responsive. On other sites that have the average amount of graphical and media content the tab-s is just as fast in my experience as our retina iPad or nexus 7...no issue at all.

Sometimes we pick nits. Browsing issues like this wouldn't even be on my radar as it is generally very good. I always use play news for reading the verge anyway as I prefer the way it gets served up with that app.

That's just my opinion of course. If anyone reads this thread and has yet to pick up a tab s...head to the store and try it out for yourself. My feeling is that this browsing 'issue' will not be a deal breaker for most.

While you are at it Watch a video, gaming, etc side by side with any other tablet out there next to the tab s...then report back here and tell us on the balance what tablet you prefer.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xRevilatioNx:
You're wrong. I tried javascript off and get the same results (stock browser) . Furthermore, you were initially basing your results on a third-party Web browser app (Dolphin).

Besides, like another poster said, you want to enjoy the full browser experience. Who wants to sit there and turn it on and then off, from site to site. I have 42 bookmarks. 29 of them are using javascript. (If in fact javascript is an issue for them) because it isn't with me.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
I have the same experience as you using stock browser, which I find to be one of the better browsers about. Even if turning off javascript did speed things up on stock, it's counter productive to keep switching it on and off as a lot of the websites I browse also use javascript.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mitchellvii:
I am not wrong. When you say you get the same results do you mean benchmarking or just browsing? Have no idea what you are doing differently but disabling javascript even on the Stock browser makes a dramatic improvement in page load speed. I mean it is REALLY obviously faster.

I still don't understand the obsession with using the stock browser. 3rd party browsers have so many more features and benefits.

My guess is this Javascript "bug" is not a bug at all but a security feature by Samsung. They know most people don't use Antivirus software on their tablets and many viruses make use of Javascript as an entry point. My guess if the Tab S is checking all Javascript for anything nefarious before it loads your page. The user is safer and most people don't notice the slight delay. This means fewer bricked tablets being sent back to Samsung under warranty. When you disable Javascript the check is no longer required and your page loads faster.

Samsung is doing this on purpose. Now to convince them it's a bad idea :)
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simacca:
I'm sorry to say that on my 8.4, turning javascript off using stock browser makes no difference to browsing speeds, it was just an annoyance to other websites that requires it.

Browsing on my tab is fairly smooth for me anyway so I have no complaints. I just wanted to see if I could make it faster by disabling javascript.
