Okay, I know the 8525 just came out and I know I have lots of other thigns to do with $400, but I figure I can get $200 for an unlocked 8125 on craigslist so I am considering upgrading. I have been reading a bunch but I have some questions about some programs/utilities that make life a lot easier on the 8125 and whether they work with the 8525

1. Eten skin with Smart dialer ( i think this would work on any WinMo but not sure)

2. Today plugin to allow photo speedial on today screen

3. Smartskey (allows to really close programs, assign buttons and makes one handed use real easy.

[HTC Sensation] ericbaggio:
Hi all, I meet one issue that the camera can not be used after installed any 4.4.4 ROM such as Sultan's and Shantur's UnO ROMs.

sometimes, I can see the icon of camera, but once I press it, it will say 'can not connect to camera' or 'the app is not installed' and then the icon of camera will disappear, while sometimes, I just can not see the icon of camera.

I tried to reboot, no luck, tried to install other camera, such as Google camera, still no luck.

But I install back to Sultan's 4.4.2 ROM, the camera works well.

Does anybody meet such issue before? How to fix it? Thanks in advance.
[HTC Sensation] ericbaggio:
I tried more times on different version Sultan's ROM, I found that last camera working ROM is the version Mar25, and the later updated version ROM from Apr13 was installed, the camera will not work, so it is not related to 4.4.4 or 4.4.3, it is a little strange and bother me a lot, I am so like the latest 4.4.4 ROM. below are the change log from Sultan's ROM, does anybody have any idea about it? thanks.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrossBones3129:
Rooted/Flashed my phone a long time. Constant bugs and errors. I really don't remember what all I did but I think I almost have it completely unrooted and back to stock. However, I can't update OTA. I've reflashed using this file, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2658486. Fixed just about all my issues and I actually have a lot of space on my phone. When I try to do the OTA Update, it doesn't install the update. Once it boots into recovery mode to install the update it gives an error. Can someone help my to 100% fully get my phone back to stock and be able to install OTA updates? I'm clueless.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
First, did the 4.4.2 ota fail after a certain percentage? If so you may actually be partially updated already. If so, flashing MJB firmware/bootloader will hard brick.

Install and open Terminal Emulator and enter this:

getprop ro.bootloader

If it says MJB, you are still on 4.3 and can refresh that. If it says NE4, do not flash MJB!

If you can still flash MJB, there is a thread in General (I think that's where) that has the Odin flashable firmware package. Flash that with Odin and factory reset. Then try the OTA.

Factory resetting with stock recovery installed will wipe internal sd card, so back up first!

There are also a few threads in General that can help you update if the OTA continues to fail.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrossBones3129:
I'm unrooted. At least im pretty sure of that. I cant run superu anumore and root checker says im not rooted. Can I still access the terminal without being rooted. I know I had clockeork mod recovery. I also had used cyanogen mod at one point. Now I have the stock recovery but when I boot into recovery I get an error. I will post the error and install percentage as soon as the ota update downloads.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Yes, you can still run getprop w/o root. Just install terminal emulator by jackpal from the play store.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrossBones3129:
Yeah it said I747UCUEMJB. Like I said my recovery gives me an error. When I try flashing at all with odin it fails. Trying to install the ota update now. After it fails ill give the error recovery gives me. OTA update fails at 24%
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrossBones3129:
Ok, booting into Android system recovery gives me a no command error than it shows the list of options. When I go to reboot system now, it gives me a no command error as well. Download mode used to give me an error, might only show up when attempting to flash something. However, these are the details of my ODIN Mode right now.

Product Name: SGH-I747

Custom Binary Download: Yes (1 Counts)

Current Binary Custom

System Status: Custom

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE

Warranty Bit: 1

BOOTLOADER RP SWREV: 2
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
When you try to flash the firmware with Odin, what does it say in the message box?

Have you tried flashing TWRP via Odin?

A lot of people seem to be having issues with the OTA failing at 20-something percent. No idea why though. I know some found that their firmware was partially updated afterwards though, which is why they couldn't flash with Odin. Need to know what odin says about the failure to know for sure though.

You might need to factory reset btw.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrossBones3129:
I've already did a factory reset when I flashed this latest rom from that thread I posted.

Point me in the right direction of the firmware I need. I've got AT&T btw.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Try MJB firmware again. Im assuming that's what you tried to flash with odin earlier right? When/if it fails again, copy the text from the message box and paste it here.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrossBones3129:
So you want me to try flashing using Odin with that firmware I provided in that link? Like I said, ODIN on the pc gives me an error. I'll provide the error later when I get off work. Before I just put the firmware on my sd card, went into refovery mode and installed it from there.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
From what I can see that is for flashing in recovery only. Of in only flashes .tar and .tar.md5 files.

This is the stock MJB firmware you can use in Odin:

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407590581

Its from enewman17 in his how to update thread here (step 4):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=53563776

If you still want to update to 4.4.2, that thread has had a pretty good success rate from what I've seen.

Let me know if you have any ither questions about this.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrossBones3129:
I'll try ut as soon as I get home from work and posy my results. Thanks for the help so far!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrossBones3129:
Wow I think one of the reasons I couldn't use ODIN after trying to unroot, is because I never had turned on USB Debugging mode. You wanted me to just go through Step 4 for right now right? Just to get back to stock 4.3 AT&T S3 like right out the box?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrossBones3129:
Thanks so much Doc. After following step 4 on that thread I was able to Ota update!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CrossBones3129:
Been using my newly updated S3 and now the Touchwiz Home stops on startup and resets my default app settings repeatedly. Not sure what's the deal, tried suggestions on diff sites and am trying a factory restore, wipe date, and wipe cache partition. Any clue how to fix this?

PS: Seen in Android System Recovery it says KOT49H.I747UFNE4. Should that be I747UCEMJB since that's what mine is and recovery still gives me no command when I start it up?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
You said you had updated with the OTA so NE4 would be correct.

As for recovery, if you want to keep stock recovery, enewman17 has it available in one of his threads (in development section I think). Redland that by itself and it ought to be good to go.

Otherwise, use Odin to flash TWRP recovery.

Factory reset should take care of the launcher/home issue you mentioned. You may not be able to though since it sounds like recovery is corrupted. Fix recovery as I said above and then try the reset.

If you factory reset with stock recovery installed, it will wipe your internal sd card. With custom recovery it will not.

You could also try clearing data for Touchwiz Home in application management.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] StoneyJSG:
I am having issues updating OTA too. It gets to 100% and then says my phone will reboot in 5 seconds, then it reboots and some at&t logo with a % counter comes up, that gets to 100% then it reboots into Android and it still says 4.3...what am I doing wrong? Anyone have any advice? Many thanks if so.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
Thats a new one for me...how exactly are you going about updating? Are you using one of the threads here? Have you recently modified anything?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] StoneyJSG:
I am trying to update by going to settings --> more --> about device --> software update. Not using a thread, no. I was rooted and uninstalled google books and newsstand then unrooted and did a factory reset in stock recovery because I found out that if you are rooted the OTA update won't take. I am 100% bone stock now except for the 2 bloatware apps I uninstalled. I have since reinstalled them via the play store , but I hear they need to be system apps?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] DocHoliday77:
They do, but they also need to be the same versions that were originally included. If you get them from the store they'll be updated and will cause the ota to fail.

I have a rooted stock LG G2 and every time I try to open the built-in Verizon voicemail app, it acts like it is going to open but immediately closes. I've never been able to open it successfully. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? My VVM.apk file located in system/app is 9.14MB and the VVM.odex file is 2.01MB. Not sure if these files could be corrupt or if it could be something else... If someone could pull these files and up them to me, maybe I could try to replace them and see if that get it working?

All that I've done to the phone since I got it was to root using ioroot and installed TWRP. I'm stumped so any help would be much appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jrose152:
I am wondering how I can reverse USB tether on my samsung s4 from my laptop? I am looking to do this for the best screensharing(laptop to android) speeds. I see usb tether is an option in the phone settings but I can't figure out how to get this to work and connect to my laptop. I figure by doing this I won't have to worry about lag when I stream my PC to my phone over splashtop. I am on stock rooted NAE 4.2.2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] anees02:
Search for app called reverse tethering and install it to your laptop then connect your rooted android phone to the laptop and start the app from your laptop and follow pop up messages on your phone then you can connect to the Internet from your mobile phone.

I used this app before more than year and the app didn't support connecting to Google Play market but i could connect to other Internet resources.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tft:
im not sure about splashtop since i tried it once and didn't like how you needed a client on the desktop. if you're lagging it's most likely the wifi connection. IMO you should be connected using at least wireless N at minimum.

have a look at X2 client. it's completely free, no bloat and does not require a desktop client. it is true RDP. only thing is you won't be able to use windows once you login as you're in total control over the pc remotely.

Currently the best browsers for our Xperia sp is; Firefox, uc Browser, Javelin (for android 4.4 roms only), Now Browser and CM browser. I personally Run javelin. Note that you shoukd keep chrome to allow javelin to have Flash. Its a weird thing I found while running javelin but yeah.

Chrome Beta looks the nicest and also smoothest but im not into chrome for mobile anymore so you can try that out too.
[Xperia SP Themes and Apps] donk165:
Aha, maybe thats why javelin wasnt working well, I disabled chrome and uninstalled updates, bit annoying that its depedant on chrome to work.

Ill stick with Firefox for now, really liking the slickness of the UI, feels much nicer to use, not as clunky as chrome

Ok I have to say this is getting to me, frustrating as hell. My phones camera REFUSES to focus on ANYTHING (refuses to focus as in re-focuses an infinite number of times and never stops unless moved back quite a distance) that is within half a foot of it & if its set on auto focus it sometimes just completely blacks out everything except the item its set on. & if focused on a white screen you can't see anything except a white screen...no paragraph the size of the Titanic no nothing. Is this some sort of defect? Also on the bottom of the screen when taking pictures you can notice when you move it up and down theres this one little line looking thing that when that area is on something its practically blurred from view, is this the lens stuff I keep hearing about that you need to peel off of the camera?

(refuses to focus as in re-focuses an infinite number of times and never stops unless moved back quite a distance)

What do I do and whats wrong with it?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] BadUsername:
Does the camera look distorted or foggy on the back? If you try to wipe it off the fog won't go away. If so it is the film and you need to get it off.

Options:

1) qtip and rubbing alcohol

2) qtip and toothpaste

3) Mr clean magic eraser

4) scrape it off with your fingernail

5) use your htc advantage replacement to get a new phone and hope it doesn't have a defect.

Either one of those should work.
