[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RockRatt:
Looks like you still have the MDL firmware which is a good thing. Do NOT update your phones firmware or you won't be able to flash certain things. Just get root with MotoChopper and Loki in its thread. Then you can flash a ROM that will have the French language installed or can be installed.

OK now to hopefully answer your question I would suggest something like ShoStock-i 7.0 as it is based off International firmware KitKat 4.4.2 which will bring you to one of the newest firmwares and not lock down your bootloader further. It may have the French language installed. I will check to see.

Otherwise you would need to find some dev that could port a French based firmware to the i337 for you. But whatever you do, DO NOT flash any STOCK Firmwares to get the updated KitKat firmware. You would be sorry you did.

Thanks RockRatt for your answer and advises. I ll have a look on this rom. My phone is already rooted and i have flashed tge loki too.

So this means that it isn't possible to install a clean stock rom in order to transform my at&t into an international model. I tought it could be possible since they apparently share the same hardware.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RockRatt:
Unfortunately no, the bootloader is locked (even with the Loki bypass). Where the i9505 bootloader was not locked.

If you were to flash a stock French firmware (it would most likely fail to flash at all) it could brick your phone.

Since we have locked bootloaders it does limit some things, but not much since you have the Loki bypass and can use real recoveries to flash almost anything. Good luck

4.4.4 GPE battery drain and hiding app issue

Hi RockRatt,

I ve finally flashed it with the 4.4.4 GPE on my phone every is working perfectly except 2 things:

Battery drain : 50% in 2 hours

Impossible to make work properly pictures, sms & calls hiding app (Hide Pictures - Hide it Pro). I ve read that since 4.4+ it's a known issue.

I was wondering if you have any idea to solve those issues.

I have already create a post for those issues but i tought you may be helpful on those matters.

Thanks for your advises
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] RockRatt:
Sorry I have never tried the GPE Roms. I have just stuck with Touchwiz based Roms since it works great for me, works with my Gear 1 perfectly

Don't worry thanks for your quick reply ;). I ll probably install a dual boot in order to have a touchwiz on the phone in case i want to take some pics considering the quality of the GPE rom
[G3 Accessories] joeliotta:
If I was to buy replacement batteries for this bad boy, would I have to worry about the battery having wireless charging capabilities? It appears that I wouldn't since the charging mechanism is built into the phone? I was about to order the Caseology battery but someone asked if it was capable of wireless charging and it says that it isn't. I thought that might me a mistake?
[G3 Accessories] iazybandit:
Battery is just that....a battery. The phone has wireless charging capabilities. It's the battery cover that you have to worry about. Without the proper sticker on the battery door, there is no wireless charging.
[G3 Accessories] joeliotta:
Thank you. I bought the Wireless Charging back cover already from e-bay and it works perfectly. Just wanted to make sure it will wirelessly charge as well if I have the Caseology battery in it.
[G3 Accessories] iazybandit:
It will charge the battery. Phone can't distinguish what brand battery it is. Like I said, a battery is a battery.
[G3 Accessories] lexluthor:
The OP probably asking because there are some phones, like the Galaxy S3, where the NFC receiver is actually part of the battery.
[G3 Accessories] iazybandit:
What would NFC have to do with wireless charging that OP was asking? Isn't NFC and wireless charging to different things?
[G3 Accessories] lexluthor:
Yes, but if someone has experience with NFC being housed in the battery, I don't think it's a strange question to think wireless charging might be too.
[G3 Accessories] iazybandit:
He never mentioned NFC so that is why I'm wondering why you brought it up. But I think I understand what you're saying.

Sorry, had lack of sleep because I was anxious about getting the G3 today. LOL
[G3 Accessories] lexluthor:
Wow, you sure like to argue where there's really no point at all.

I was just trying to be helpful and brought up the fact that there are phones where the wireless connection (NFC) is built into the battery. So a battery is NOT always just a battery, as you noted incorrectly earlier in this thread.
[G3 Accessories] iazybandit:
Before you think too much into it, I'm not arguing. It's called a discussion.
[G3 Accessories] Nickyro23:
You come off as argumentative for very little reason... maybe be sure you understand what people are saying first before you comment back. Might seem less argumentative and more of a "discussion" at that point. Btw, saying things like "it's called a discussion" makes you come off as snooty and argumentative... [emoji106]
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mdavenport:
I have a hermes SPV 3100 but keep getting the following problems and was wondering if anyone else had similar issues:-

1. Sometimes when I go to load an application that is installed onto the microsd card, it says can't find application. If I eject the card and reinsert it all works fine - any ideas?

2. Periodically I get the whole phone lock up. It still looks like the screen is active but the back light is not on , nor will any keys work to re-activate. I have the following installed and was wondering if it could be one of the following applications that is the cause of the problem:-

- PhoneAlarm

- pTravelAlarm

- PocketBreeze

- PocketInforman 2007

- SportsDo

- Skype

- eWallet

- Tomtom Navigator 6

All of the above are the latest versions..

Any ideas on this one?

Thanks

Mark
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Acouple of these are rather hungry processor wise and in particular I found PhoneAlarm caused serious delays/freezes if a) I was using a fancy skin-notably some of the vista ones and b) had it's skin on the sdcard.

My sdcard stuff used to appear and disappear but I have lightened the load of applications on desktop and it has settled down.

Another thing I've done is to instal Wisbar Advance desktop with multiple today screens. With this I install maybe only one application to each dektop. I had thought this would if anything slow everything down but in fact it seems to only run the application(s) applying to the desktop currently showing. Also makes for a less cluttered today screen. I also pin shortcuts to the other today screens so I can easily flick from one to another

Even so the occasional lockup needing soft reset is expected and I ensure wifi etc is switched of and no programmes running at night to ensure no freezes overnight and the alarm goes off in the morning.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegafiler:
If its noticeably worse than something like a display model, I'd lean towards a return as defect. Or, since it's a carrier branded device, you could probably get support from them. At least if you have an active account.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] hashoomy09:
Hey everybody! I have an AT&T Galaxy Mega that whenever it is turned on, I get a Yellow triangle with a "!" in the center saying "System software not authorized by AT&T ha been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest AT&T store for help". Also, in the top-left corner, it says "SECURE FAIL: KERNEL" in red. I tried using Odin but no luck. I feel like I am probably not using the right files. Maybe a link to the right Odin files would work. If someone could please help, that would be EXTREMELY appreciated. By the way, if this was already posted somewhere else then I'm sorry. Thanks! :)

Another thing is that I had recently got the phone screen repaired. That's when it all started. Also for some reason the repair guy removed the sticker behind the battery that holds all the info like the IMEI and S/N. I was wondering if it was possible to pull those up so i can use them. I tried Kies but I need my serial number which is why i am asking if i can pull it up without the sticker behind the battery. Thanks again! :)

Pick a thread my friend.

There are a few regarding the screen replacement issue which are in the thread title. There are also many with the unauthorized software on device issue. You can find that problem also listed in titles or in some threads titled with issue with upgrading.

Slide into the Q&A forums. Also, search is your friend. You wont find your solution unless you read. Many folks having same issues.

I tried TowelRoot or whatever but it was not supported?

Any other ideas guys?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yrusoconfused:
settings-about-tap your way to developer

Just figured this out, but have definitely read it elsewhere in xda: go to setting - about tablet - tap repeatedly (I have read elsewhere 10 taps, or possibly only seven) the last entry in the right column (not sure what it was before i did it). The bottom of the screen, after the first few taps, should display something like "3 more taps to become developer." Kep tapping the appropriate, indicated number of taps...and i think that should do it.

I wanted to extend my ext2 folder to 4GB so I used ext2explore to copy all the files in it to my PC. Then I used TWRP and extended the partition.

My problem is that the paste action of the program doesn't work.

So maybe I could mount a Linux live disk and such but I guess there 's an easier path?

I copied my previous ext2 partition files to a folder in SD fat32, but where can i find the ext2 partition in android so as to paste there?

Or maybe is there another way around?
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chillo71:
well, after trying a bunch of programs to read/write ext2 from windows, Paragon ExtFS for Windows did the mack them all trick!

[Networking] sbgorner:
I know that there have been requests for this so here we are.

The attached ZIP file contains the CAB to automatically configure GPRS and MMS connections for the Virgin UK network. It has been successfully tested on an XDA II and SPV M1000, both of which are running 2003 SE. I don't have a pre-2003 or Mobile 5 device to try it on so I don't know if it works on them.

The 2 connections which are set up are called:

Virgin GPRS - this has been configured to also allow MSN Messenger to be used.

Virgin MMS

Before using it, I would advise the removal of any existing GPRS and MMS connection settings (though the choice is obviously yours). I would also advise to check that your happy with all of the MMS options/settings following the install (e.g. Save Sent messages is switched off with this CAB).
[Networking] madnutter:
At last :o - God knows what i was doing wrong but with this cab and some manual setup of the Connection side of thing i have managed to send an MMS.

This CAB setup the MMS side perfectly (nothing on GPRS) - as i was typing from what i can gather ok for IP i was using the full xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and server name i had put goto.virginmobile.uk whereas this cab just say picture message (not sure if this would cause and issue), but i am doing the connection via: My Work Network as thats where i setup the GPRS, rather than internet.

[Networking] sbgorner:
Remove old network connections before installing the CAB

The CAB file does really rely on the fact that there are no existing network specific connection details installed on the XDA. The best way to ensure that old network connections are not affecting the Virgin settings is to delete them, i.e. ensure that only the standard "My ISP" and "My Work Network" entries are still present.

1) Go to Start->Settings and on the "Connections" tab, tap on the Connections icon.

2) Tap on the "Advanced" tab.

3) Tap on the "Select Networks" button.

4) Use the drop-down arrow to select an entry (do not select "My ISP" or "My Work Network").

5) Tap on the "Edit..." button.

6) Tap on the "General" tab.

7) Tap on the "Delete Settings" icon.

8) Repeat steps 4 to 7 until all of the entries (do not select "My ISP" or "My Work Network") have been removed.

Having removed all of the network specific connection entries, try reinstalling the Virgin UK cab file again and everything should work.

I have followed your instructions but after running the CAB file the VArio II still doesn't connect. If I click on the edit settings link it doesn't think there are any settings, as I only have the option to install a new ISP. However if I try to manually install a new ISP using the name Virgin GPRS it won't let me as it says a connection already exists with that name, but nowhere can I find any trace of that connection. What is going on please?
[Networking] Bouncypete:
I'm in exactly the same position with my O2 XDA mini S.

I could possibly try using a different ISP name but I'd rather find out why this is happening and delete the connections made by the CAB file. As I can't find the connections though I can't delete them.

Ok, Time for an update.

Using Virgin GPRS2 didn't work and I've found out how to remove the setting created by the CAB file. I went to add and remove programs and removed the changes that way.
