He asked which ones came with an unlocked/unlockable bootloader, those did. So it began after the S3, for the S line it was the S4.

Didn't no it started with the s4. But the other fellow seems a bit confusing. I was more or less asking if he new what he was talking about

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] LuckyColdJohnson:
I believe it started with the S4 ( I had the Note 3 ) It never got unlocked. This is the way At&t, Verizon, and Samsung are going.

I hope their sales drop so bad they stop this BS or give us a way like the M8 HTC has. Its all for BS corporations and Knox security crap.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
I really love America, but it seems American companies are losing focus on the consumer because we are such a large populous they feel they can just do as they please disregarding what some want because they will still see sales cause the ones not in the know or down right just don't care will still seek their services.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] robstunner:
Bootloader is locked because:

A.) More secure for enterprise use

B.) idiots who Brick their phones and send them in for repairs or returns.

From a business standpoint, they are doing it right to lock it down. 90% of the people don't care, and when they are selling millions of phones a year, they don't care about the 447 (current amount of people that signed the petition) that do. Google is coming out with their own version of Knox soon too.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] GDofWR420:
What will that mean Google releasing there own version of knox? I know it is a type of secure platform for enterprise use that is supposed to be top notch for corporate use but really has no use to a regular user like me. If so please enlighten me as to what extent.

Ok, I have been a developer for a long time way back since the days on winmo5 on the Sammy Blackjack and have been a mobile device administrator in a 160,000+ employee international company. So I'm now going to call bunk on your theories.

A) locked BL's dont have anything to do with corporate enterprise security, thy have NIL effect in the scheme of enterprise mobile security.

What is important is whether or not the administrator can Wipe/reset or even actually disable the device completely locked BL or not it doesnt matter.

B) Considering the sales of mobile devices in comparison to the number of "Idiots" who brick there device and send in for warranty, millions of devices sold and probably less than 1% returns due to personal misuse.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] OhGawd:
Hi All,

I bought a Jabra C220S and it doesn't work properly with my Wizard (Cingular 8125). The left ear has no sound and the mic doesn't work. I've read posts from several people that they have purchased 2.5mm 4 connector headsets and they have the exact same problem with their phone. I have a headset that came with my phone and it seems to have the same connector . . . . . In the attached picture the Jabra connector is on the left and my original stereo headset is on the right. the bases are slightly different, but the connector sure looks to be identical.

Two Questions:

1 - does anyone have a Jabra C220S that they are using with their Wizard?

2 - can anyone provide a rational why the Jabra C220S might not work with the Wizard?

Thanks for your expert-ness :)
[Moto X Q&A] FlexZer0:
Hellow guys.

i have moto x indian version which is region free and i want to root it, so i've unlocked bootloader of it but the problem is whenever i tried to flash the recovery (cmw and trpw both) the imgs flashed successfully but when i tried to boot to the recovery through selecting recovery option it boots normal to the os. i tried it more than 15 times still no luck. any solution for this? your help will be appreciated. Thanks in advanced
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
A couple questions: first, did you use any of the root 'exploits' before you unlocked the bootloader? If you did then you need to return to Stock before you can flash custom recovery.

Did you use 'mfastboot' to flash TWRP? If not, try that.

There is one individual I helped that had a similar issue. We never figured out what the problem was, but I had him follow the instructions in the "Return to Stock" thread to flash the entire Stock SBF for their carrier, and afterwards the recovery flashed PERFECT. If you do this, be SURE to flash ONLY the same version you are currently on. Do NOT 'downgrade' or flash an earlier firmware version.

Now you have some ideas. Let us know if they help resolve your issue.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
[MENTION=5945620]FlexZer0[/MENTION],

As [MENTION=2509024]samwathegreat[/MENTION] mentioned, if you have rooted using something like SlapMyMoto, RockMyMoto, or PwnMyMoto, or have used MotoWpNoMo on this phone, you'll probably want want to flash your full SBF to get back to stock. (make sure you use the EXACT same rom as what is currently on your phone!!! do NOT attempt to downgrade!!)

In addition to that, something that is VERY important... immediately after flashing custom recovery, you want to reboot into bootloader/fastboot mode and go into recovery. You do NOT want to flash recovery and then reboot normally. For some reason this step is necessary or the recovery doesn't "stick." For example, see steps 8 & 9 at -> http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa/step-step-instructions-unlocking-t2649738

Now, if you follow that entire process, please keep in mind it was written/posted a while ago, so it has older links to mFastboot, TWRP and SuperSU...

The latest can be found at the following:

TWRP -> http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/234

[Moto X Q&A] waiflih:
how are you trying to boot recovery? did you notice the legend?:

Vol Up: Selects

Vol Down: Scrolls
[Moto X Q&A] FlexZer0:
Thanks for the replay guys I know how to boot to the recovery and how to get into the fastboot mode. And I have moto x carrier free which means it's does not locked with the carrier like AT&T and Verizone etc. So whenever I searched for the exploits I only found the exploits for carrier locked versions of moto x.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
How exactly did you "unlock" the bootloader? From Motorola's official website?
[Moto X Q&A] FlexZer0:
Yup from motorola's website. I got bootloader unlocked warning screen while booting and boot loader status: unlocked in fastboot mode so I'm pretty sure it's unblocked.
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
OK, good.

Did you try my advice from Post # 2? Flashing the entire Stock SBF for your carrier? Then after a successful boot, flash TWRP again, and afterwards, type:

fastboot reboot-bootloader

then use VOL DOWN to select recovery, and VOL UP to select it?

Just linking to this useful app in case anyone hasn't come across it yet or would like to try it on their device.

It is experimental so it may not work for you, I tried it on my T310 running stock KitKat 4.4.2 & was able to cast my screen with sound to my Chromecast, only issues I had was the picture/streaming got progressively blocky after using it, had a slight bit of lag as well but your mileage my vary ;)

I recorded sound from the sound recorder and tried to send it via stock messaging however I get an error file size to large however the file size is only 633.8 kb and 649,025 bytes file is a. M4a I tried renaming it to a mp3 but still no luck I have exposed installed is there any setting or module I can I install or change to make this work?

Also please note I am unable to use another messaging app due to me using the gear 2 neo watch

is there anyway to increase the mms file size ?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
Yes it's possible as a lot of custom ROMs modify the maximum MMS file size. Search XDA for details, but I believe that it would be done by decompiling the stock app and editing the value in mms_config.xml. Alternately you may be able to find a modified copy of the stock MMS app to the same effect.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ex-28:
OK thanks been searching around but so far no luck... Least I know it's possible just have locate a resolution now.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ex-28:
able to dig up any more info for me on this , can't seem to locate a thing or modified apk for the s5 or a way to increase the mms file size...

would truly appreciate it.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
Well I don't know how you aren't finding anything. I just did half a dozen searches and even poor keyword choices pull up results.

But anyway, go read the descriptions of some custom S5 ROM support threads. A lot of them list as a feature that they have modified the stock MMS size limit. The modified apk will be in the custom ROM.

If you don't intend to install their full ROM, respect their hard work and ask the Dev for permission to use his modified apk, rather than just steal it. And don't forget to click the thanks button in his thread too. I noticed that you aren't consistent on doing that when people help you and it is the absolute least that you should be doing to acknowledge them.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mrdreamers:
odin to the stock and rooted, wheres the best kernel so i can flash a rom? and im on rooted stock do i flash the rom first or kernel first or does it matter?

btw i tried triangle away but it does not work something about magic header should i flash the rom and kernel then try it or is there another way?:confused:

and can i flash twrp on this for my recovery?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Use mobile odin lite or mobile odin pro to flash the AJK v4.9 No Swap kernel to get CWM recovery. Open the zip archive and extract the boot.img, and flash that in mobile odin. Do not need to boot into system, and if you do, the buttons will not work correctly. Boot into recovery and flash the firmware of choice.

If you want something touchwiz based, then the best choices are either SHOstock3 v4.0 or Cooked. If you want something AOSP based, then there are a few choices which you will need to research yourself. You can probably have TWRP recovery by flashing a custom kernel containing TWRP, but this will depend on which firmware you choose.

so ive tried to build cm11,downloaded source, got vendor,device tree and kernel sources.

when i build, i get errors.see attached file.

any help would be appreciated.
[LG Optimus 3D] troopii:
you are missing the kernel source or its in the wrong place

/home/shaqfu/cyanogen/kernel/lge/omap4-common this is the path for the the kernel source

so if your omap4-common folder contains lge-kernel-omap4.

rename the lge-kernel-omap4 to omap4-common and copy it into kernel/lge/ and replace the omap4-common folder

or edit the path to the kernel in the boardconfig TARGET_KERNEL_SOURCE := kernel/lge/omap4-common

I have the option of using an N900 exynos Note 3 that can run Cyanogen and has an unlocked boot loader but no LTE or I can use an AT&T locked boot loader that has LTE. Is the Exynos processor much faster? Who would trade LTE for an unlocked boot loader?

I'm on T-Mobile, but both the N900 and N900A are sim unlocked.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicholaschum:
Locked bootloader is a no-no for me.

The fact that you only can use Safestrap to install TW ROMs on it defeats the purpose of having an Android. I want the choice to switch between AOSP and TW ROMs.

The Exynos Processor is not much faster, and you lose the capability of recording 4K video.

Honestly I won't pick any of them and just get an international unlocked bootloader variant - but that may be out of your choices.

If you really have to pick, I would go for the N900 Exynos version and run AOSP (Cyanogen as you call it). LTE is not worth a locked bootloader imo, but that's just me.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jisoo:

Hey guys,

I have a Z1 C903, which doesn't work as a wifi tether nor bluetooth tether. I can turn it on, and other devices can see it, however when trying to connect, the signal drops completely.

If I wait the signal will restart and become full strength, where I will need to manually connect, which proceeds to the signal disappearing again. I've tried unsecure, wpa2, wpa to which I have no luck either. Devices such as laptop will say limited connection, whereas android tablets and phones will refuse to connect and will say "Saved, secured with WPA2" or something else if i change the password method.

I've tried searching for any reports of wifi tethering not working, but the problems seem to be different from my situation.

More details on my device:

It has an unlocked bootloader

Now running Paranoid android

Problem occurred on stock 4.3, nut 4.4 (I assumed it was a glitch on Sony's drivers, and have waited for months now for a patch)

Could a faulty TA do this?

Any ideas?

I flashed the stock ftf from the mega thread and that restored my tethering capabilities. I then proceeded to reinstall the ParanoidRom and now the tethering works as well.

I'm not sure what happened, but I'd assume something went wrong when upgrading to 4.3 and the problem stayed when I then upgraded again to 4.4 and then to paranoid.

Hi, I was using my XZ yesterday flawlessly and then out of no where it just turned off. I did everything I could find on the forums but it just sits there with the red Led permanently on. I left it charge overnight, when I woke up the led was green and the screen said it had a full charge. I turn it on, it gets to the lock screen and then shuts down again. It's sitting there again with the red led on as if the battery was drained completely in 1 min! What can I do about it? THANKS!

Hmm... Try doing this:

Get it charged till you get the led green, KEEP charging, and then turn it on. See if you can use it for 5 mins, 10 mins, even an hour. See if it turns off automatically. If it works fine while plugged, then that shouldn't be the problem of your ROM. Then, unplug the charger, and see if it shuts down soon. If it does, we can make sure it's the problem of your battery.
