Hey all,

I just have few questions about ROM upgrade.

1a) First of all, I would like to ask, if someday I give my phone for repair, if they can see that I upgraded ROM or not.

1b) If a) is true, then is there a way how to backup my current ROM?

2) The latest ROM is 3.6.251 from Dangard. Does anybody know what are the changes?

3) I have 1.02.261.1 ROM in my phone. Am I also affected by the missed calls problem? I recieve calls quite often, so I didn't have time to keep my phone untouched for several hours as described in other forums.

Thanks a lot
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] PrimerPlus:
I have been on 4.3 for sometime now and rooted. I have an AT&T i747 Samsung Galaxy S3

My phone keeps trying to update me to the new 4.4.4 and its getting annoying.

I have spent sometime trying to figure out how to backup all my data / contacts / apps with all logins / photos / txt messages / call logs / email accounts

But everytime I fine something that might work the app either is broken or I get some error like cant create folder on the internal storage (tried titanium backup, Myback root, and ROM toolbox) none would work.

All I want is to have a Rom similar to stock that might allow some added features where I could doodle with customization fonts themes etc.. The only thing I use root for is allowing me to setup tethering. (What else is worthwhile I dont know)

I tired out dirty unicorn rom. I dont like the look for feel of it. Also It would not let me sync my google account for contacts and apps. I could not use TWRP to restore any of my apps or contacts because when I did it got stuck on the Dirty Unicorn logo. Doesn't matter because the UI of that rom was completly new to me and I like the Ui of the S3.

I would like to update to newer software than 4.3.

Really appreciate everyones help.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
You cannot use OTA to update to 4.4.2 unless you have a stock recovery with an unrooted system.

Some apps need to be updated in order to run under 4.4.2.

Some of the latest custom ROMs will also require and updated bootloader and modem to make calls and connect to carrier data networks.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrrocketdog:
might want to try 'online nandroid' & ' nandroid manager'. there on the playstore (or use to be). online nandroid will make a backup kinda like twrp and nandroid mngr , you can restore personal and system apps (if you want) like Tibu ; sms , mms , phone logs , browser history/bookmarks , etc. i've used for yrs. might be worth checking out if nothing else is working for you. good luck.

err on the side of kindness
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] scales11:
I would advise staying with 4.3. I am on 4.4 and AT&T has trouble with it (no it isn't my phone).

Is it possible to revert back to a 4.3 (custom or stock) rom from a 4.4.x custom rom?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
You can run custom 4.3 and custom 4.4.2 ROMs but you cannot downgrade the bootloader and modem to a previous version.

You gave this thread about 8 hours before accusing people of ignoring you. Calm down and don't act like the world revolves around you. You're not going to get any help from anyone if you act like everyone should submit to your schedule.

That said, rooting with Stumproot and using Xposed/G3 Tweaksbox to set things up is a safe route. Installing a Bump'd TWRP recovery isn't a bad idea either to make backups.

you will lose almost all features of official Xperia; camera app, walkman, album

Hey all,

I've waited out two generations of this phone in order to get this one but I'm currently on AT&T and my contract is up. The AT&T version has a locked bootloader and from the looks of it, it won't be getting root any time soon. I'm contemplating on whether I should go with the Sprint or Tmobile. How do you guys like this phone on the sprint network?

Are there any issues with wifi tethering with this phone (without paying extra for it)? Has anyone come from AT&T and regretted it?

I'm in the NYC area and I've had Sprint on my company's BB which had pretty good service. How is the service where you are.

This is kinda big decision for me because I've been with AT&T for over 17 years now and I'm going to lose my unlimited data if/when I switch. I know Sprint still offers it but AT&T does not and I want to make sure I make the right decision.

Thank you all in advance
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erik077:
Sprint does not offer unlimited data anymore and they are even trying to convince existing users to switch from unlimited to 20GB shared. Not sure about your area but in mine Sprint always have some problems and excuses. Still I stick with them because of employee discount, current unlimited plan, and other carriers are just expensive (Verizon) or I had them on my "black list" (AT&T).

Check Sprint coverage in here http://coverage.sprint.com/IMPACT.jsp?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Patch7:
Sprint still offers unlimited data.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeken:
Thanks for you input erik077. When I got a quote from the rep over the phone yesterday they were still offering the unlimited data plan. As a matter of fact the lady was even recommending that I get that instead of the shared 20gb plan. Still, I'm not entirely impressed with their coverage map. There are a lot of bare spots on that map for 4g coverage. But they seem to have good coverage around my home and work.

Anyone else like to chime in?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cbass15:
I have unlimited data and just got sprint. I was in the same shoes as you and I switched to sprint I kept going over my data limit and didn't want to worry about my data overages anymore so I switched to sprint! And now use more data than I ever did. And I get full coverage of sprint spark all over my area! ?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erik077:
I guess different areas has different plans. I was told plan like mine is not available anymore and in case I switch that's lost forever.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Read the terms; IIRC, the newer unlimited data plans have a data roaming limit set rather low; beyond that limit incurs charges. The grandfathered unlimited data plans don't have a roaming data limit that incurs data fees but Sprint terminates those who abuse data roaming. Lose that plan and it is not possible to go back. The phones are still subsidized as well. That's another trend going away. I'm keeping my Everything data 1500 minute plan with employee discount for those reasons. Not sure about discounts on the other plans. Maybe that's three terms to consider if switching plans or providers.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajr0312:
I have both T-mobile and Sprint accounts. I'm happy sprint . Spark is great and I usually use about 50 gigs of a data on each phone. I guess what I'm trying to say is I think you should get Sprint since NY has great Sprint service.

[MENTION=1459306]kwazytazz[/MENTION] what kind of connection issues are you having? Poor 4g? GPS? Call quality? Please elaborate.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkManX4lf:
I've got the same issue.

Sprint is decent for lte in nyc. You may have some issues getting lte in SI or Queens but the other three boroughs should be fine.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajr0312:
I think that's fixable with an update tho. Not saying, it's not annoying atm, but Sprint should fix this soon.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deeken:
How about Long Island? Anyone experiencing connectivity issues in Nassau or Suffolk?

Another thing I wanted to ask about was the GPS. How accurate is it with google maps and its turn by turn? I've read that several people are experiencing issue with it. Not just the Sprint variant.
[General Questions and Answers] boflit:
So I bought my daughter a new LG E975 from China, it is running 4.1.2 and is apparently a Hong Kong Version.

Now, I've done firmware updates before on Samsung and not a problem, even on HTC a while ago, but this is the first time I've had a foreign phone so I'm stumped.

First problem is that FOTA is not available, in fact, the option for software check on the phone is simply not there. I've tried googling but can't find an explanation of why and how to enable it. I've tried LG PC suite, whilst it detects the phone without issue, it says "can not check software unavailability, please try later". Also tried the Mobile Support tool, but on launching it says my PC isn't connected to the internet, but of course it is.

So I thought fine, I'll go the manual path, but my concern then is what firmware to choose, do I choose a UK provider or a Hong Kong one, to be fair, the phone is unlocked, so I just want a non UK provider firmware, i.e. a standard LG 4.4.2 update not locked to a provider, is that possible?

Or am I going to have to apply a rooted firmware? As it is my daughters phone I just wanted simple vanilla version built for this phone.

I wish I'd not bothered now, I didn't envisage these sort of problems when getting the phone.

Any help appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] xyancompgeek:
Hi All

After many many issues and tests, I have finally managed to boot a copy of Windows 8 stored on my Galaxy Nexus 32GB which can be loaded up on any machine and used as a WINDOWS TO GO drive. I'm making this thread from this setup and I honestly cannot feel the speed difference. :)

Method:

1. Procure official Windows 8 DVD and extract install.wim from 'sources' folder

2. Procure Wimlib from http://sourceforge.net/projects/wimlib/

3. Download DriveDroid from Google Play

4. Set up DriveDroid for Standard Android Kernel and create a 10GB image file on the phone. Do not create a partition table for it just yet.

5. Mount the image to a Windows 8 PC.

6. Use diskpart - select the disk, clean, create primary partition, format quick ntfs, set active

7. Use Wimlib to APPLY the image to the Removable Disk Drive that you just made (use the --strict-acls switch)(read the additional documentation)

8. Once the image is applied, use the command "BCDboot X:\Windows /s X: /f ALL" where X is the drive letter of the removable disk you made.

9. All done! Reboot and boot regularly (haven't tried UEFI yet) Will take time to install drivers and screen will be inactive for some time. Let it complete everything and start up.

Attached screenshots.

Note - ImageX and DISM have created problems for me before. Avoid using those.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plissk3n:
Hey guys!

Loving my FTV so far, thanks for this great forum where a dozen of tutorials and tools helped me to get my FTV running.

Today I replaced the remote with an Harmony 900 and Flirc stick.

I send infrared commands with the Harmony universal remote to the Flirc USB stick which is plugged to the FTV. Flirc translates the infrared command into leopard strokes which you can program yourself.

Not every app I am using is depending on a screen (Spotify which I control with my pokédex) but the app has to be started. Since I don't have a TV but a projector I would love to keep it shut off just to start the app.

I would like to have a special leopard key like 'F11' or '?' which isn't used in XBMC or FTV to start this app. I thought maybe Llama could do this but I haven't found a rule which does it.

Do you have an idea how I could get that running?

Otherwise I could program the remote to go through the menus and start it but the Logitech Harmony Software is from hell I wish I could save me the trouble.

Thanks! :)

When I begin an action memo, I don't see the thumbtack or pin icon at the top of the memo next to the check mark and x where I think it is supposed to be. It doesn't show up whether I am starting a new memo or editing an old one. Without the pin, I cannot pin the memo to a screen. I have seen the pin icon when I searched youtube for an S Pen overview. But it is no where to be found on my own memos. Does this function need to be turned on?

When you open Action Memo, a "yellow sticky" appears that allows you to write notes/memos. At the top of the sticky, there should be a pin or thumbtack looking icon that allows you to "pin" the memo to one of your home screens as a reminder. We're trying to figure out where the pin went as some of us no longer have it. I don't recall having a pin when I was using TW, so this may be more carrier than launcher related. Don't yet know.

Hi!

I was having the same problem. The thing is that I already had some pins on my screen. You don't need to uninstall any launcher, in the exact moment that you put touchwiz as default launcher (always) the pin option is restored. So if you're messing around trying other launchers, and even if you select touchwiz without putting it as default, the pin option will not be available.

(It's an awesome feature, I just realized that feature when to open an action memo started to take like 20 seconds on my 2 months Note4... an eternity when you really need to write something... So I started to pin notes, they open much faster... anyway, I'm going to use another launcher, cause action notes open much faster, so I'll not need them pinned...)

Bye!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SnackoDog:
I use Nova Launcher and don't have the Pin either in the Action Memo. So, I went back to TouchWiz and it was not there either!! Maybe just having Nova Launcher installed screws that Pin up?? IDK..

I thought my answer was very clear. Pin notes only work when touchwiz is set as your DEFAULT LAUNCHER. As I said, if you're not using touchwiz as "always" launcher the pin option will not appear.
