[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeRifle:
I would wait if you are new to the scene. It seems that depending on your current OS version, 4.3 (open) vs 4.4.x (locked), we have a looked bootloader. So flashing sth might leave you with a bootloader that denies loading the images because of failed hashes.

As to really bricking it, I don't think it is that easy as long as you know your way with software and IT. But DON'T flash sth or toggle some switch you don't know about. simple. I tried flashing TWRP to the recovery partition and rooting from there with SU as suggested in a thread here, BUT it wouldn't accept TWRP because of a lock...still tripped the KNOX though:cowboy:
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Oh Didnt know all that stuff until now :o All this is very different from jailbreaking which I know alot of. Thanks for the help! I only plan on getting root and not any of the custom roms yet since im trying to not get knox tripped and the fact that i cant return my tab s for any reason because of walmarts 15-day return. I guess ill stay unrooted for now :) thanks again
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeRifle:
It sucks that they try so hard to cage us in:P but just wait a bit, people will find out how to root even the new OS 4.4.x. Although I am not sure whether it will ever be possible to do it without KNOX tripping. Maybe you can somehow restore a tripped KNOX to 0 though...but that is over my head:p If you are [MENTION=2854877]4.3[/MENTION] Android though, you might just try going ahead and flashing TWRP with Odin, and then install appropriate SuperUser .zip. Your call:D
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenkiller:
Are you sure you know what you're talking about? All our Tablet S came with Android 4.4.2, and they are rooted just fine.

---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 AM ----------

You're being given wrong info. Rooting is easy, as is installing a custom recovery. But yes, if you don't wish to trip knox then there is currently no way to do so.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeRifle:
Well, I thought I was sure, wouldn't have said it else. My Tab S did not come with 4.4.2, as it installed some OTA when first connected.

Please share your info on how to root it or install custom recovery. If I was babbling away, being mostly PC/new tab user, please correct my mistakes. No harm intended.

EDIT: Thinking about it. Do you by chance mean flashing the CF Auto t800 image from the development thread? That is not a t805 image so it did not really appeal to me, and it said in the same thread that it is not needed...since you can odin TWRP...which did not work for me. Mean that?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenkiller:
Read through the thread again.....many reports from users who got T805 rooted using the T800 cf-auto files without any problems.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeRifle:
you are right. I did not find the image "elegible" as it was not based of a t805, and I tried the "other", "slicker" method which did not work. The only reason I could see as to why it did no accept the flash, INet research confirmed suspicion too btw, was that 4.4.x has a hash check at boot up. This would make it extremely hard to root/install TWRP by flashing w/out overcoming this check first.

My comments were based on these assumptions. So sry for the confusion [MENTION=5978945]DUHAsianSKILLZ[/MENTION]
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenkiller:
If 4.4.2 has this so called hash check at boot up, why would it not matter in using cf-root for T800 then using Flashify to install TWRP? Think about it. :D
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeRifle:
[MENTION=5978945]DUHAsianSKILLZ[/MENTION]

flashing the CF Auto for the t800 from the dev thread did the trick for me too. Rooted and can't seem to find problems. Knox tripped oc. Check this thread for more info if you like http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/development/root-cf-autoroot-t800-t2802916/page17#post54769521

i just found in settings others cellular net a new option in 4.4.4 for EU remove carrier from status bar that was impossible before and just hidden for US firmware
[Moto G General] nirmalbalaji:
Its a change that was made by Motorola in the 4.4.3 update after a lot of complaints about the persistent carrier name on the status bar. US and Brazil got the 4.4.3 update with that option. 4.4.4 update for every one else packs 4.4.3 $ 4.4.4 updates.

Its not something new that you have found.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] rassah:
Here in the US I am using T-Mobile, wich doesn't have 3G yet. So, I probably don't have a 3G sim in my Hermes, and everywhere I go, I always get only a G next to my phone icon. However, when I went to Toronto, Canada, this past week, the G changed to a U. Does that mean:

1) UMTS network was detected, but all it did was detect it, and keep using GSM?

2) UMTS network was detected, and I was able to connect to it, because the 3G in a 3G sim cards is for internet access only,

3) the U is for internet connection availability only, and doesn't affect the cell voice phone part of my TyTN?

or

4) I somehow got a 3G compatible SIM card, and had I wanted to, could've been charged $10 every 8 to 10 seconds for downloading REALLY fast (I get charged $10US a meg if I use web outside of USA)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] gilbnx:
Hello rassah,

In order to have a 3G service you do NOT have ot have a 3G SIM (also known as USIM). The network is backward compatible and will allow you to use whatever your SIM card (or the network) authorized you.

I am also TMO subscriber and in some countries I could use UMTS and in others only 2.5G (GPRS/EDGE). Technically you have no limitations to do so so its up to the commercial arrangements between TMO USA and the other operators.

So the bottom line:

a. Your device detected UMTS and the network allowed your device to be attached to the 3G network (hence you saw the "U").

b. You probably have a SIM and not USIM (like you mentioned TMO still does not have 3G network ready for commercial use).

c. It is perfectly OK technically to connect to a 3G network even if you have 2.5G SIM card (pending you are authorized by the network to get such a service).

You can do a simple test next time you are in Toronto or other place where you see the "U". Go to www.dslreports.com, they have speed tools, try to perform a speed test and if you are connected with "U" you should get 3G speed results (again, depends on the network and the quality of the signal.. you will see a result of something between 200k to 300k i would guess)

PS: You are right about the cost per meg. But look at the 3G speed as you get what you want but just faster so the bottom line is - you are being charged the same as 2.5G just get work done sooner :)

i had no luck with the offline flash method and i can't try any workaround cause i don't have the LG software mode in the USB options

if someone can please upload or give me a link for a nandroid backup of p760/p768 stock (android version and country doesn't matter)

it would really help me

Do we know if they removed the hardware, or just disabled it via software? I miss this feature. My old Droid X made my mp3 player obsolete. Every phone since has required me to have my mp3 player or miss out. I think it's Verizon trying to get us to use data from Internet radio.

Yeah I believe you are right, I remember now. I guess it could be possible to be dual purpose antenna but I'm sure that would have been discussed in early release reviews of the Korean model.

Usually the headphones cord is used for the FM antenna on phones that have FM tuners.

Hey xda,

just a question before I might post a bug report to jira:

when I have headphones pluged in and a notification sound plays (f. ex. recieve a SMS, ...), the notification sound is played on the headphones (ok) and like half a second after the notification sounds starts there is noise coming out of the speakers. It is about the same length as the notification.

Have this bug with CM11S XNPH25R and CM11-M9. No modificationes except unlocked bootloader, recovery and root, however, I think I already encountered this when I booted my OPO up for the first time (so no root, ...).

Has anyone else encountered this?

[T-Mobile LG G2] guags99:
I just installed an app (lots on the Playstore) that will lock your phone. Then setup the gesture setting in Nova for Double-tap with a shortcut to the activity associated with that App. Sorry can't give you a step-by-step, but it's not too hard.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Dominus Yami:
Download screen off app in the play store. Then go too nova launcher gesture settings, "Double tap" Apps menu and set screen off to it. That will let you Knock off (Turn off) your phone. If your phone's Knock on (Turn on) stops working like a lot of peoples have lately. Go to your dialer and type 3845#*801# then go too settings, and push Update Touch Firmware. Your phone should update for five seconds and just exit out knock on should work then. Use that secret number only if your knock on stops working.
[T-Mobile LG G2] pitchdarkice:
I've just lived with tapping the status bar for Knock Off, not the best, but manageable without additional external apps.

[T-Mobile LG G2] Howie Dub:
Not sure if you're still using Nova or are using the Screen Off app. An app I've been using has been Secure Settings. Don't know what the pro upgrade is now, but I paid $1.50 and it has a selectable action that allows you to lock the screen. I think it has a free version too, but don't know what actions are enabled.

All you do is go to the Double Tap gesture in Nova Settings, select Shortcuts, go to Secure Settings, then Dev Admin. You'll find a Lock Device action that will give you double tap.

[Sony Xperia M] Sh0m1:
Completely different hardware.
[Sony Xperia M] Mysteryagr:
I think It maybe ported if someone know how to probably hack the kernel.
[Sony Xperia M] mbc07:
Let's explain some things: a ROM have a device-specifc kernel and device-specific libraries, that's why the answer for questions like "Can I crossflash XXX device firmware in my YYY device?" will always be "No, it'll brick your phone" UNLESS the entire hardware is identical (like Xperia M and Xperia M dual, for example -- only the modem is a little different to accomodate the second SIM). Also, if firmwares could be easily crossflashed between devices, Sony wouldn't waste time and resources developing another firmware, they would just reuse the same firmware in many devices...

And for "Can device XXX firmware be ported to my YYY device?", the answer is "Probably not". You would need to rewrite a lot of the kernel code and find the proprietary binaries of the target device (for example, Xperia M uses msm8960 board and as far as I know there's no Android device running KitKat with this board, so the binaries probably doesn't exist yet). The other way would be reverse engineering the binaries from other devices but this would demand a lot of work and it's not guaranteed to work at all.

In other words, firmwares can't be crossflashed and the work needed to port a proprietary ROM to another device isn't worth, it's easier waiting for Sony release the update (no guarantees that Sony will at all) or just switching to a custom ROM like CyanogenMod, Carbon, Paranoid, etc...
