Idk.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] double zero:
Me neither. I'm not sure what the final step should be. However, I feel like if I flash a stock ROM and unroot, I should be good enough for Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tech_head:
I don't know if they ever turn them on once they get them.

I recently sent a Galaxy S3 in with full root and the "Custom" text on the screen for replacement.

The only email I ever got was that the phone had been received. YMMV.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] double zero:
Interesting. When I was at the Verizon store, the guy at the customer service area told me to return it to stock, because they would definitely check to see if the software was modified. That's why I'm worried about trying to return to stock (or as close to possible) before sending it in.

It seems like if I do the steps I suggested above, it would "appear" to be stock, but it would still have CWM installed. Maybe that will be good enough? I don't think I have any other choice.

[MENTION=4939386]Surge1223[/MENTION] Unique situation I think I remember you having a solution for awhile back. Any advice on this OP?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Easiest method would be to find an me7 ota zip and stock mdk recovery.img and boot.img, if you have a stock mdk back up. Otherwise id suggest going to mk2 instead of nc5 that way you would get an ota notification...although I think flashing a stock rom, recovery and kernel then using supersus full unroot method should do the trick.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] double zero:
Surge, I don't have a stock mdk back up, unfortunately. I went through the forums and found this MK2 Rom (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2581072). Do you think that would work?

1.) Flash the http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2581072 ROM

2.) Download/run Triangle Away

3.) SuperSU (Full Unroot)

4.) OTA update to NC5 (lock bootloader)?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kassyo:
So I've got my hands on the tablet, works great but there is one thing I didn't quite get. Over the bluetooth, a headset/handsfree, when answering a call it turns all the radio off disconecting the tablet from the gsm network, wifi, bluetooth for 2-3 seconds and after everything is back to normal. It doesn't do that when the call is initiated from the tablet, only on answer. I tried a nokia bh 102, nokia bh 214, nokia bh 200, bluetrek st1 and a samsung hs6000 with the same result. When the call is answered without the headset it works with no problems but as soon as I try to connect the headset and transfer the call to the headset, the "radio off" message appears in the status bar and game over. I believe this is a software related issue since the hardware works in other conditions. Could someone give me an advice to what I can do besides getting it to a service? It is rooted so I have access to the root files. Maybe a firmware update or a custom rom? I googled all night for an answer, but no luck.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gorakhvinit:
So i bought a nexus 4 and the warranty ran out 2 months ago. I want to claim warranty because of the issue with the motherboard. I have a friend of mine who bought same phone 6 months ago. There is no imei number written on his bill. I have been told by someone that the date when the usage starts is saved online on lg server. Is it true? Or I can claim my warranty with the other bill? I am from India. Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sfkn2:

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gorakhvinit:
So if i have a phone that is 15 months old and obviously out fo warranty. And i have a bill that is only 6 months old. I want to claim the warranty of my phone by using this bill. can the people at lg will know that my phone is out of warranty. As i said, the bill is of my friend's phone and does not have imei number printed on his bill.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gorakhvinit:
OK thank you. And the warranty is of 12 months. I just paid for the repairs. Thank you all.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
This sounds like fraud to me and is not condoned here.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B1nny:
Warranty fraud

As mentioned by jd1639 this is indeed considered warranty fraud.

I would like to remind you that trying to get warranty after it has expired or trying to change imei numbers is not legal and thus is not permitted here on XDA-Developers. By doing so you would violate rule 9, which is as follows:

Please refrain from doing so or discussing these matters in the future to save both yourself and us trouble with legal authorities.

Here is my guide on how to enable the use of standard bootanimation.zip files in the galaxy s5

First you must be rooted with custom recovery. either CWM or TWRP will do.

1. Download THIS FILE Credit to anbech

(THIS FILE disables the above action.)

2. Flash the above file, reboot. done

3. Add the zip file of the animation you want to //system/media with the permissions RW-R--R-- Make sure to rename the zip file bootanimation.zip after you download it

This should let your phone use the bootanimation.zip files that stock android ROMs use (Tested on GM900f 4.4.2)

NOTE, this only covers the booting up animation. the ROM will will still use shutdown.qmg to do a shutting down bootanimation.

Again all credit for this goes to anbech the following posts ill be adding my collection of ZIPS.

those files in the op are for 4.4.4, make sure once youve flashed it you have the bootanimation.zip in the right place and itll play fine

[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] -PiLoT-:
remember the qmg files will no longer fucntion if the flash worked. so if you flashed and are somehow getting qmgs to work, then something went wrong. are you rooted?
[Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps] JOASH20:
Ya, I'm rooted on NK2. It does disable qmg files, but the boot animation is just a black screen with any bootanimation.zip file. I flashed the disable file, renamed the stock qmg files and put new ones in the media folder to change the animation.

Hey

I recently updated my Galaxy S4 Rogers (at&t) phone to the Goldeneye Rom from 4.2 . Everything went fine however I can no longer use my camera when in a call nor can I send text messages while in a call. I used to be able to do this with the old rom without a problem.

Can someone please tell me how to enable the camera during a call and how to send SMS again? I can receive them just fine while in a call. I think these issues are some limitation of compatibility with Sprint phones but they are annoying.

Thanks so much for your time.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liquidzyklon:
Since you flash custom ROM, you should have root installed. Please look into WanamInstaller to download the Wanam Xposed module. Once the Wanam Xposed module is enabled, please go to System --> Check "Enable Camera during call"

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hecksagon:
I am pretty sure that there still needs to be a way to blow the Qfuse that tells the boot loader the device is unlocked. On some HTC and Motorola devices, that fuse was directly addressable by software that was validated through TrustZone. So once TrustZone was compromised, a command could be given to the software responsible for Qfuse programming to blow the appropriate fuse and unlock the device. It's entirely possible that Samsung uses some different method of Qfuse programming or that particular fuse is not addressable on the Note 3 hardware. So there is hope if somebody will look into this, but it is definitely not a sure thing.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] typhoone:
http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.co....pdf?key=yTU_58d39l1jaHqzfsFYcA&ts=1407345856
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hecksagon:
Broken link. In summary, there was a particular situation with how the bootloader was locked that allowed this exploit to break Motorola's implimentation. There is one fuse that tells the bootloader that it is locked that was blown, one that tells if it's permanently locked that was not, and one that if the permanent lock fuse isn't blown but this one is tells the bootloader it isn't locked.. The Trust zone vulnerability allowed him to send a command to blow that last fuse. Since you can't I unblow a fuse, this means permanent unlock. At least until the permanent lock is blown on an OTA.

Samsung may have different logic to determine if the bootloader is locked or may have blown the permanent lock fuse if the same logic is used.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hecksagon:
Fingers crossed...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] DrPhant0m:
Supposedly, it's already done. It affects all Snapdragon phones, including the Note 3.

However... they go on to say that the exploit was released over a month ago... and some phones are already patched.

DroidLife seems to be somewhat detached from the root community, though, since they assume that "already patched" means that everyone that owns the phone has installed the OTA. I'm on NC2, and I updated from MI9. I hope that NC2 is still vulnerable. MI9 was the initial release.

As an aside... I'm not sure if I particularly care about unlocking my bootloader. Installing AOSP roms doesn't appeal much to me, since the developer edition (for instance) has been out for a long time... and the best they can do with the S-Pen is to emulate a mouse input. Maybe modded kernels would hold more interesting possibilities... but even when I had my S3 I didn't mess with the kernel that often.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] bmwh0r3:
I'd at least like to be able to try aosp ROM on here. I tried eclipse and enjoyed it but a full ROM would be nice.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] armus:
I haven't updated in months, so on MI9 and like it the way it is. That being said, I'd love to unlock it
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] DrPhant0m:
First of all... if you're on MI9, you've NEVER updated. MI9 was the initial release. Right?

If you're on MI9... You should be able to unlock it. *See Note 1 below

My logic: MI9 is the initial release. If they were able to unlock a Note 3, then it was MI9 or later... and you can flash any release you want from MI9. (Careful, though that you can't go backwards... with the exception of MJE <--> NC2)

***Note 1***

I didn't see it specified that they unlocked a VERIZON Note 3. I don't remember if Verizon lagged behind other carriers in releasing the Note 3. Perhaps Verizon had a patch in to begin with. I'm not even sure if that's a possibility... but I wouldn't put it past them.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] MeetFace:
I'm not terribly interested in being unlocked per se, but it would spike the interest of devs to be sure.

Hate VZW. And even Samsung. Let us do what we want!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hecksagon:
Keep in mind that this exploit only works on Motorola phones because of both the ability to run arbitrary code in TrustZone and the particular method Motorola used to determine bootloader lock status. At the bottom it notes other devices that have the TrustZone vulnerability. If these devices do not use the exact same method to determine unlocked status, this method will not work. Somebody will need to reverse engineer the Note 3 bootloader to determine how the check is performed and if some command from TrustZone can cause an unlock. In the mean time Samsung can patch the TrustZone kernel and it would be back to square one...
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] chrootz:
Welcome to Verizon's communist.

I'd love to have a unlock bootloader and I paid $700 retail edition note 3 to keep grandfathered unlimited data and I should have gone get a dev edition instead. In future, I'm not going to buy any phone from Verizon unless it has unlock bootloader or a DEV edition.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] krazy_smokezalot:
He said you can't bootloader unlock VIA TRUST ZONE. He didn't say Samsung and LG are not bootloader unlockable. Maybe we need more than just Dan's trust zone exploit hmmmm. Hopefully our devs can put this puzzle together
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] DrPhant0m:
With the recent statement by Qualcomm on the topic...

​

...it would seem that there's an issue of chronology that may need more attention before we take Dan Rosenberg's tweet that Samsung and LG devices have been patched to mean that we won't get a bootloader unlock.

What I mean is this:

The Note 3 was listed specifically among other "affected devices" in the company of LG phones in his original paper. Dan states that only the S5 and the M8 were already patched as of the time that his paper was written. He goes on to say that the list of affected devices will surely shrink as vendors use the information to patch their devices. When his paper got more attention (posted on android blogs like droid-life and androidcentral), and he tweeted that Samsung and LG phones could not be exploited, he was perhaps saying that Samsung and LG have already utilized the information/data that Qualcomm promised to push to their customers (phone vendors) in their latest updates. So... I still have hope that those of us with early-release software on our phones will still potentially benefit from it.

Are there any holes in my logic?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] krazy_smokezalot:
That's the same way I'm thinking maybe if we are patient we can see what the future will hold for us. But only time will tell
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] astonmartin214:
I don't understand VZW you get a Note 3 BL locked then you get the Dev Edition Note 3 BL unlocked why is that?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] Grompy:
The way I understand it is yes the vulnerability to inject code into the trust zone is in our phones, but our q fuses are different than that of Motorola's. For instance a retail Motorola has an unblown fuse that will say the boot loader shall be unlocked, so it's easy to inject code to blow that fuse and unlock that device. However, a retail Samsung device has an already blown fuse that says the device shall be locked if blown. You cannot inject code to unblow a fuse... I also believe the check for the blown q fuse Is done at either a lower level than trust zone or outside of trust zone altogether so we can't just inject code to always return as if it was unblown. Just my understanding of the matter. I might be a little off, but I'm fairly certain I'm close.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] astonmartin214:
YES you can unlock the bootloader it's really simple go to samsung.com & go buy Verzion Note 3 Dev edition it will run $700 then you can ROM all you want
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] hecksagon:
Thanks for the useful post.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] DrPhant0m:
You are categorically incorrect. It's actually not very simple at all to get a developer's edition of the Note 3 for Verizon. They only release like 20 at a time, and they're always on back-order. In fact... I think I've heard rumblings that they're not releasing any more. Ever.

***Correction*** As of this moment, I was able to put a Verizon Developer Edition Note 3 in my cart on samsung's retail portal website, and I was not told it was on backorder. Perhaps their inventory is (temporarily or permanently) replenished... or perhaps their methods have changed, and they delay the backorder message until later in the process. Either way... I retract my prior statement that it's not easy to acquire a Note 3 Developer Edition (assuming you have the capital, of course)
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] astonmartin214:
what how would that be incorrect when the phone is on Samsung site you can't get the device through Verzion anyway so you make no sense but who cares you haven't placed the order for the device so what you say carries no weight
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 General] DrPhant0m:
In fact... I did place an order for the device. I was on backorder for several weeks before canceling it and buying an MI9 and using RDLV to root it. I made a conscious decision that I didn't necessarily need an unlocked bootloader to get the most of the device... mainly because the available software/roms/mods for the DE did not justify the cost, associated caveats, and waiting for the device for an indeterminate amount of time. A friend of mine did the same, and had a similar experience.

However... I do stand corrected. I made my statement earlier without checking what the current situation is... assuming it was just as bad, if not worse. I was able to put a DE in my cart and proceed to checkout without the typical "backorder" error message. Perhaps they let you follow through with the order further before telling you it's on backorder and you have to wait... but since I can't confirm that, I do apologize for my short sight earlier.

You do have to understand, though, that your tone earlier was somewhat unhelpful, given that most of us are full aware that we can get a developer edition phone. You might as well have suggested that we all buy galaxy nexus phones because the nexus line is the most developer-friendly available.

In addition... there are several caveats associated with the Dev Edition of the Note 3. In addition to the price, which is preventative to many... My understanding is that Samsung and Verizon are not committed to providing any support or updates for the Developer Edition devices. Also, a quick survey of the available ROMs and related content on this site is notably lacking for the Developer's Edition. At least... not on par with what one would hope to expect from an bootloader-unlocked device. Many are of the mind that if a bootloader unlock method was to be developed, the increase in accessibility would lead to a boom in associated development, including (but not limited to) AOSP ROM and custom kernel support.
