Help with flashing

I was following the instructions until I typed "fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin" and got a reply <waiting for device>. Because of the long wait time, I closed the command prompt. I reopened it and typed "fastboot reboot" to reboot my device but it is still waiting> . I'm afraid that I might brick my OPO if I disconnect the device and turn it on. Help please! Thanks!

Annoying problem with OnePlus One

So I have the latest build of bacon, unrooted, and I have this bug that's killing me; whenever I'm watching a video, on any app, whether Vine or Instagram, after the first playthrough, and when I replay it, the sound works but the video is stuck on frame until the video actually goes to the frame which sometimes would continue the video with workable video, or just continues being stuck at that frame. Scrolling away and returning to the video would play the video fine, but then when replaying the same issue reappears..

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks

Is anyONE facing distorted and very often choppy voice on calls??? It is more worse on loud speaker. Bit better changing to 2G only mode. This problem is killing me with shame as I gifted it to my wife.

I received this OPO a week ago in India and it is on stock 44S and not rooted yet. Does rooting and changing kernel helps me resolve these issues??

Quick question. I dont have the OnePlus One but Im wondering whether CyanogenMod 11S is Open or closed source? If I do get the OnePlus One, can I compile 11S myself or am I stuck with "regular" CM without the OPO specific features?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lanchon:
i believe 11S is closed source. it doesnt have root and has google. this is probably part of the agreement with goog.

i compile my own "regular" cm and i dont know what u mean by opo-specific, but i do have, for instance, gesture recognition with the screen off. other than themes and other crap, is there something specific u want me to test for you with my build?

the opo is the only non google free phone im aware of. all others at least aim to disable your warranty if u root or unlock bootloader.

do buy the opo, i switched from nexus 5 and im really likeing it.

I am planning to do the Big Storage hack, and I'm just wondering if it's worth it to upgrade the ROM and radio at the same time.

I've read a lot on the wiki and also on the forum, but while there' a lot on how to upgrade, I couldn't find much on the difference / improvement between 1.13 and previous versions.

Right now I have ROM 1.12WWE and Radio 1.12.10. The ROM has been pretty stable for me, and I have no complaint about the radio reception and voice quality neither.

I wonder if there's any significant upgrade or new features on 1.13 ... otherwise I really have no big reason to mess with something that works fine for me.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] wkwk:
I recently went through the whole upgrade process.

Updated the rom to 1.13 and left the radio at 1.12, also got the big-storage hack.

I've noticed no improvements due to the rom upgrade. However the big-storage hack is the best thing yet cause you get all the extra space (ofcourse) and it gets rid of all the cusomised junk.

There is a downside to this that eerytime you hard-reset (for whatever reason) you lose all your data since there is no extended rom to read from on the reboot. So I just keep all my cab files zipped on the storage card.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] number16:
I did the whole upgrade in the end (ROM and radio to 1.13, and big storage hack as well).

I have not noticed ANY improvement since the upgrade to 1.13, both ROM and radio. I do not get better reception (or I don't notice it anyways) and I also don't notice any added feature from ROM1.13, nor does it run any stabler than 1.12.

That said, I don't think it's any worse or any less stable neither ... so for those who's going to do the big storage hack (which you'll have to backup and restore your ROM and go through the whole hard-reset / restore anyways) I'd say it doesn't hurt to upgrade at the same time, just for the sake of "newer version's gotta be better".

For those who're not planning to do the big storage hack, I'd say don't bother. It doesn't provide any noticeable improvement and it's not worth the hassle.

As for the big storage hack, well it isn't exactly what I thought but it isn't bad neither. I thought by doing the big storage hack, I'd free up more space for program memory. Turns out it only gives you more STORAGE space (as its name big STORAGE hack suggests, I guess) but not more program memory, which is what I constantly run low on. And getting more storage memory isn't a biggie for me, because I have a 1GB SD card which I only use ~ 30% of at the moment.

That said, at least having another 20MB of storage space allows me to free up some programs that cannot be installed on the SD card to be installed on the storage space, thus freeing up stroage memory, so that I can tilt the bar to allocate more RAM for program memory.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] zerimar:
ROM 1.13 is very stable but no big difference between Radio 1.12 and 1.13. BS is very usefull. I have TT6, WorlMate Pro, SK Tools, Photo Contact and photos, Resco Suite, SPB Pocket Plus, WebIS Pocket Informant, Rings, and Temporay Internet Files all in BS and that leaves me a total of 39.27MB of free RAM. West EU, USA and Canada TT6 Maps are store on a 2GB SD.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] wkwk:
I have a question though, I upgraded from ROM 1.11 to 1.13. Now in my old rom, once the phone switched off I could revive it only by pressing the on/off switch but now I can revive it by using any of the phone function keys (dial,disconnect, contacts or calendar). Is this normal?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] rjtd:
You must turn on the button block function, on settings.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] number16:
Yeah I guess another 20MB of memory never hurts ... but I have a 1GB SD card which is only ~ 30% full most of the times ... so I don't really need the extra 20MB. The biggest upside is certain programs will have problem running on memory but is ok (or semi-ok) running on storage memory ... so I'll be able to free up a bit of main memory that way.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Carty:
How BigStorage helps?

The 20MB may be less but think of SD getting corrup very often. And someone like me depending on data such as SPB Finance and stuff, if SD gets corrupt, all data lost! Biggest nightmare i faced once.

BigStorage space never gets corrupt! and you can use it for stable data. Also for installation of stuffs that takes up lot of space in Main Memory.

For example, pocket music, resco file explorer. If you install Resco FExplorer in BS, you can use it even if you swap memory cards! Make sense?

So my questions, after upgraded to BS. Which cab files on ExtRom that is compulsary to be installed.

Sorry for my bad english :). Thx.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] zerimar:
BT functionality is embedded in the radio rom, so there's no need of additional cab files for it to work.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] number16:
The BT problem you have is a result of a dumb restriction by the OS where you must turn on radio to turn on BT. But if you get any 3rd party BT toggling appz, you can turn BT on / off independent of the radio.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] rockafeller:
Yup. With 3rd party such as Bluesoleil can activate my BT. So i have to use 3rd party appz? and bchs patch for a2dp depends on the original BT appz. That sucks :(.

There is no icon pack for cm10.2 only cm11. You can change the icons in cm10.2 with a theme template but restrictions on only having that theme set. or with a zip like vr.

My advice is to move to cm11 theme engine and make for that not tbh an out of date android version..but that's up to you. Soon 5.0 is out so 10.2 will be very out of date.

Hi Zatta and S3 users of the xda forums!

Last Monday, almost a week ago now, I attempted to upgrade my I9300 from 4.1.2 to 4.3 stock and after 6 days of constant reading, experimentation, re-flashing and being told Samsung would not fix my device for me I finally regained the ability to make calls. This nightmare could've been avoided if the FAQ in this forum was a little more complete as xda was the first place I came to look for answers for Android tech issues and that is the case for many others but instead I got bogged down in 1000's of similar and mostly incorrect and/or incomplete threads. We can do better!

Here are my suggestions for improving the S3 FAQ in this forum:

'How should I flash my custom ROM?' should be changed to 'How should I flash my ROM?' so that it covers flashing both official and custom roms. It needs to make mention of Heimdall as an Odin alternative because not everybody runs Windows. AFAIK the drawback of using Heimdall instead of Odin is that it cannot flash a single .tar.md5 that contains multiple tar.md5s - instead they have to be extracted and installed using a pit file.

The EFS section needs a bit more detail. It should mention that TWRP and Philz can backup and restote EFS whilst CWM cannot and maybe it should also say something about the change in format after the MG4 modem.

Last but not least this really needs to address how to fix the incorrect IMEI / serial issues that lead to people getting 'Not registered on network' and 'Emergency Calls Only' type errors and not being able to use the phone features. I read 100's of threads on here that were all so certain this was strictly a EFS issue when in many cases it will be caused by users having flashed a incorrect CSC, as is what happened to me when I flashed BTU roms instead of H3G. Its's also worth mentioning that H3G roms are for Three (UK) users. Panicked me saw *3G not 'Three' - I dont think H3G is quite as obvious as say vod etc is so this must've snagged a few S3 Three/UK users.

If I9300 users can't find a ROM with the correct CSC, they can try rooting and then using 'csc changer' to change csc. Failing that, I'd recommend i9300 users flash A.S._ids recovery ROMs:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/odinfirmware-sgsiii-i9300-prerooted-t1825272/

Here's the thread leading up to my discovery on the importance of csc's in having a correct IMEI/serial and being able to connect to your phone providers network:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/help/i9300-network-0049-imei-0-serial-t2900470/page2

If we can get all that added to the FAQ I think we'll see a significant drop in the amont of repetetive threads about the same problems over and over on here!

Thanks Zatta and the xda admins!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmdan:
The need for a patched modem and kernel in 4.3

The FAQ also needs to make mention of the fact that having the correct ROM and CSC is not enough to upgrade to 4.3 or later as it seems most (all?) I9300 users upgrading to 4.3 such as myself have had no luck with the Ariza patch and have had to resort to using zuluman's or another set of patched, 4.3 compat modem FW and a patched kernel. It should note the Boeffla kernal can be used with patched modems if users prefer that route.

Here's a bunch of patched 4.3 modems and kernels that could be linked to if we can't get them uploaded somewhere better:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmdan:
Lets update the FAQ!

Does anyone agree this is important stuff every S3 ROM flasher should know?

I've PM'd Zatta but no response yet and the S3 FAQ itself is closed.

If he can't re-open it or edit it I'm happy to write a new FAQ for the i9300 based on his but updated with the above and a few more tidbits. I'll only do so IF the admins agree to sticky it provided I do a good job else it'll just get lost in endless posts. I'd be open for advice and suggestions for additions to the FAQ should I go ahead with this.

I've created a number of FAQs and manuals for various Linux-related projects in the past inc. most recently the KXStudio manual and the Tracktion Linux FAQ.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmdan:
Imei / efs faq

The IMEI / EFS FAQ also needs updating to mention that there seems to be (at least) three ways you can get a generic IMEI/serial - the third being using an incorrect CSC to that which is required by your network provider.

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/ref-imei-efs-stuff-i9300-including-t2393289

I'm have commented on that thread with my suggestions for updating the FAQ but I've not had any reply yet.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmdan:
improving battery life

Another good addition to the FAQ would be something like this:

Q. What can I do to conserve/improve battery life?

Samsung Touchwiz Android 4.3 (and later?) enables Smart Screen by default. You can tell it's enabled if you see an eye icon in the top right corner of your phones home screen. Smart Screen attempts to sense when you are looking at the screen to turn it on and to rotate the screen when you change your viewing angle but it is also notorious for draining the battery.

To turn it off go to Settings -> My Device -> Smart Screen then disable 'Smart Stay' and 'Smart rotation'.

To conserve your battery it is also recommended to enable power saving mode and turn off the WiFi, Bluetooth and your mobile data connections whenever you are not using them.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zatta:
Hi, I've just noticed your pm in my inbox, sorry for the late "reply", although I do this in public now.

At the moment I'm abroad without the possibility to edit the thread. When I get home I will edit the faq according your proposals but that will have to wait until the first half of december. I will be at sea until that time.

Is great that finally someone responds to this thread actually, it had been unlocked without any useful comment for months. In fact, I've asked people to come up with ideas to improve it but it looked like no-one is interested.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfmdan:
Great to hear from you too Zatta!

There is no great rush to update the FAQ as I've already waited so many weeks to get any kind of useful response from anyone on here. Some even suggested I was nigh on trolling in my efforts to see the important S3 FAQs improved so I doubt I'll have any more luck than you in getting constructive feedback for making further improvements. I hope I'm proved wrong in that respect.

I'm an experienced Linux user (since '96) but I don't claim to be a Android expert. I'm certainly not a S3 expert either but we can definitely improve this FAQ which should in turn improve these forums by reducing repeat questions.

I should add something like this too:
