I say life proof or PEPK Ultimate

I have the life proof nuude case on my S3 here. I've dropped it a few times (intentionally and unintentionally) and even ran it under my kitchen faucet for a few minutes. It's still holding up with no issues and I did all that months ago.

For factory work however, I recommend the life proof fre case due to the built in screen protector. However if you want to go full on drop protection get the PEPK Ultimate case. It's made of metal that holds together with screws you screw in and has a glass or plastic like screen protector, but it's not waterproof.

I have the

Otterbox Defender

installed on my S3

I personally took out the Otterbox screen protector in the case

and replaced it with

"Tempered Glass" technology.

I definitely would recommend both these products to future S3 owners.

Any suggestions on which brand of faucets is the best? Want years of reliability with very hard water, with solid/heavy construction. Considering Kohler's Solid Brass (Antique series). Anyone have experience with any other brands?

Tempered glass plus Puregear Dueltak heavy duty case. Tanky but not too bulky. Amazing grip.

Hey Guys!

I have a problem with my lg e400.

i did put cm 9 onto it but had no network.

so i flashed v10 baseband on it trought clockwork recovery on the phone and also i flashed a screen-charger mass bug fix after .

since the restart i cant start the phone.

if i start the phone normaly only the touch buttons light flash up and have black screen but vibrates once.

if i connect th phone to pc it only recognises if i put the phone to download mode

with hold volume button down with no battery.

i have searched trough the forum so i tried kdz,adb,cmrecovery,r&d tool,lg updater,flasher,pc suit to flash back or forward with different kdz files but couldnt get succes. allways have wparam lparam error codes. there was one kdz P880 V20A_00.kdz it didnt get an error message but nothing happend till this morning as i left it ongoing trough last night. or if i tried with web update it stops at 4% does not matter how i set the pc.

i have tried to mount system files from the sd card way but did not reach any succes as it has no screen and only can get into download mode.

Could someone help me with it please? it seems i knocked out my phone :/
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nesh89:
When using kdz right click the computer button on your pc, go to properties go advanced find modem and disable LG mobile modem, restart your pc.

Then if using windows start windows enabler, make sure you installed every thing correctly.

And try every thing agen, i hope i helped a bit.

Thats realy strange, kdz is the only way you can get it back, did you try a difrent version of kdz?

I dont think your phone is hard bricked, cus you can still enter download mode, trie it with a difrent kdz version, a newer or older one.

There not all the same.

Hi,

I have CWM recovery installed already in my phone. Can I use it to install this rom?

Also, are the following steps correct to install?

1. format system

2. wipe cache parition

3. goto advanced and wipe dalvik cache

4. wipe data/factory reset

5. install zip

Also, could you let me know when the Aroma installer will come up?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palmbeach05:
Did you search at all for CWM? Its been around for years, is a custom recovery, and allows you to flash custom ROMs like the one you're asking about.

Make backup

Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache

Flash ROM

Flash Gapps

Aroma is just a touch screen enabled install method. It will automatically come up. Its not a needed feature in any ROM installation, but its handy when customizing with developer choices for customization (ie launchers, equalizers, hacks, build.prop mods, etc)

Awesome - Thanks! I was hoping that was the case, that way I can still return it if I decide not to keep it (loving it thus far so I have no plans to return it).

Just out of curiosity, have you installed a custom recovery? If so, which one and have you had any issues performing a backup & restore? I saw where TWRP has (had?) an issue that prevented you from reading/writing to internal storage after restoring data. Would like to try out the CM11 ROM, but I'll hold off if you can't restore backups.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
I have install a custom recovery and rom. Ive have not had issues backing and restoring with twrp. Idk about r/w part to internal storage. More people said that twrp 7.1.1 something has worked without any problems. I can confirm this too as I am using that version of twrp with no issues. As for the latest twrp 8.1.1somesort people said they were having problems with some of the stuff you mentioned. I have not tried it yet but twrp 7.1.1 or somesort works A ok. I also have restored my backuped from custom roms and it works just fine on twrp 7.1.1. So twrp 7.1.1 or something like that is your best bet. Hope this helps!

I actually haven't tried rooting yet, I had some issues with a few tabs I originally purchased so was waiting to see if I had any more issues before voiding my warranty. But I'm keeping close tabs for when I do.

Odin runs on windows. Unless you can dualboot or use something to get windows, you can root
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KEYofR:
There is no special hack needed to root this device (T800), just plain old download mode and install a custom recovery, then use that recovery to install su. Then you are rooted.

That means you can use Heimdal on Linux in place of Odin on Windows, and use either TWRP (2.8.3.0) or Philz recovery. Knox counter gets tripped no matter how you do it. cf autoroot is not magic in this case, just more convenient.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vMAC:
Doesn't work on my 807v.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KEYofR:
The question was about Linux and t800 and linux, not t807v. t807v might have a locked bootloader for all I know. t800 does not. I don't think cf-autoroot does any magic to break past a locked bootloader.

I'm a newbie and I've never rooted anything in my life except for a plant. Lol. I got the Tab S a couple days ago and have always been interested in rooting. What perks will this give my device and will it give me an option to use it as a phone? Or can you lead me in the right direction? AT&T has blocked this option on its network. Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Nope, that method doesn't work on my t805 either by play store or zip method. Tried that method 3 times, only cf-auto root worked.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KEYofR:
As I already pointed out, the question was about linux and t800, not t805 or t807v or anything else.

t800 requires nothing special, and so the answer to the question is that yes they should be able to use heimdal on linux in place of odin on windows.

If you don't have a t800, or aren't trying to work from linux, then neither the question nor the answer had anything to do with you.

Also, if you say cf-autoroot worked for you, then I think that proves that you don't have a locked bootloader and the manual way does in fact work. That's all cf-autoroot does. No exploit hacks or anything. It just does the same thing you do manually, it just does the steps in a row by itself and removes most of the chances for user error.

So actually, if cf-autoroot worked for you, then thank you, you just helped document that you don't need anything special for t805 either. You could use heimdal on linux if you didn't have windows and so couldn't use odin. So that's t800 and t805 at least.

It seems I cannot do a complete root on my Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (TM800?)

It has the latest Samsung update (5.02) and when I try to do Chainfire, it goes smoothly until I try to open SU. It tells me that the binary needs to be updated and gives me two options of either: normal or TWRP/CWM. I don't have a custom recovery installed because I don't know how to do that without root and if I press normal, it says "installation failed please reboot and try again" which I do and still get the same thing.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Sorry for the late response but

Heres how I did it.

1. After flashing rom, flash the kinguser zip in twrp https://mega.co.nz/#!PhZFjCrJ!weJWb_B_ZzzZ74zaqidV8CT-dz425jl_IV6FQdPeB_E

2. Then open the kinguser app. It will say theres a problem with root.

3. Reboot into twrp, and flash the latest supersu.zip. That should give you all the root binaries.http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu

4. Reopen kinguser and hit software version or if it prompts you to update... update it!

Check root access with root Checker and hit authroize when the kinguser pops up. Until then, this seems to work for me. Hopefully I wrote the steps correctly.
