[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] duckredbeard:
My wife's GS3 is acting up and I was going to update her ROM to the latest (Likewise) version. Before doing so, I attempted to do a backup, she has TWRP 2.7.0.0. It failed several times, trying internal and external storage. The TWRP freenode chat was quite dead and the only response/suggestion was that her recovery was too old. So I thought about this toolkit to update to a newer recovery.

I launched the toolkit and everything was going well until I got to the "Select your build" part. She is running Likewise (4.1?) which is a 4.4.2 ROM, an NE4 based ROM. My only choices in the toolkit are 4.0.4 or 4.1.1 or 4.3.0. Her baseband is I747UCUEMJB if that matters.

So what should I choose for the build? Is there a mode I can put the phone in and connect and let it automatically detect the device and version?

Edit: using the toolkit to install drivers, should enable PC to autodetect device and version.

---------- Post added at 05:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:06 PM ----------

After driver installation it indeed detected the device and version, but I still don't know which to choose.

Hi,

I just bought the Sandisk 2GB miniSD card, however, when I try to install program from ActiveSync, but the option is disable for the choose destination of the program. I cannot get it to work.....please help. Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] prestonmcafee:
Soft Reset

Usually the unwillingness to install on the SD means the device hasn't seen the SD card.

Often, I have to reset to get my MDA to recognize the insertion of an SD card, once I had to reset twice.

I mod my SystemUI and share it with my friends. Some of my friend can use my SystemUI but some cannot they always ended with no statusbar and navigation. they also used my framework-res.apk.

my question is, is the build version the reason of this? is there any fix for this problem?or do I need some file to include when I recompiling my SystemUI?

Please help me guys. thanks in advance.
[Sony Xperia C] ethandub:
plz help

Up
[Sony Xperia C] abhishekr700:
well actually there can be a number of ways for this to happen...being a rom chef i have myself encountered these problems while rom development

the major cause is the SIGNATURE CHECK.every app and dex file is signed with a key if an app is different from the rest of the apps by signature the the syatem fails to execute or install it this ends with the no statusbar error

as for build number sonty hasnt modeified the systemui in current updates so i dont think that build is any problem
[Sony Xperia C] ethandub:
tnx for reply

tnx bro, this is what happen, i've choose one systemui thats works perfectly with them and start to modify that systemui, some of them can use that modified ui some cannot , as you said maybe the signature check is the one reason so we can fix this if i will used the androidmanifest and meta-inf of that unmodified systemui to my modified systemui?again thanks for your response bro.
[Sony Xperia C] abhishekr700:
yes as much as i know if u dont edit androidmanifest.xml the signature remains the same so it should work
[Sony Xperia C] ethandub:
I already tried that thing bro same not working.
[Samsung Gear S] p64imp:
Hi All,

So i thought the gear S had 4gb storage for music?? Isn't this what it says all over for specs? I just plugged in my verizon Gear S model and it shows up as 2.44gb with 2.08gb available?!? Anyone else have this problem? Is this 4gb or not?
[Samsung Gear S] sbrownla:
It is but the OS takes up a lot of room. 4 gigs for music AND Tizen AND sound effects AND apps ...
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
THIS you never get the full GB in anything beside maybe a developer editon of something
[Samsung Gear S] p64imp:
yes perhaps, but my gosh, 1/2 the promised space available? The apps i've installed to the watch so far are at most 1mb in size and average 500kb. What the heck did they put in this watch that takes up 2gb of bloat? How disappointing! I was going to load this up with music tracks for my workouts etc and this is what i'm left with...
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
LOL I feel your pain maybe someone will root and we can take away the bloat. choose you music carefully lol

Excuse my ignorance, but how did you guys find the storage? I couldn't find it in settings. :confused: Please advise.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Valentin6282:
so i have spring note 3 and i want to use it in romania but there was no international unlock until now.

the phone is sm-n900p with 4.4.2 nc5 with CF-auto root from chainfire.

i have used the apk from here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=56489748&postcount=1355 to unlock the phone for international use and it worked.

the problem is that the phone makes and receives calls for the first 10 seconds or so. After that it won't and after a minute the network disconnects and in a few seconds it reconnects and it works for 10 secs and it keeps doing that on a loop. I am in romania on cosmote, now called telekom.

i went into service mode and the first line changes. for the first 10 seconds it says gsm900:idle and when that happens i can call and receive calls. after 10 seconds the line changes to gsm:idle and i can't call or receive calls. an then it changes to rrc:idle band 1 and the signal indicator says no network. and after a minute it changes back to gsm900:idle ant everything starts all over again.

i tired orange and digi and they work but no mobile data, although i did not really try to fix the mobile data problem since i have a telekom sim that i am trying to make work.

i noticed that on orange the first line is rrc:idle band1 or band8 and works all the time (i can make and receive calls).

the sim i have is a normal sim that i had for 2 years and i cut it to a micro sim 1 year ago for an allview and it worked perfectly. i thought it might be the sim so i tried a telekom micro sim and the same happened.

someone suggested to try going in the hidden menu and follow the steps here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2593305 but now i can't enter hidden menu. hidden menu enabler says link status disconnected. i don't know why because a few months ago i was able to get in hidden menu using this post.

i searched for another way to access hidden menu on google an i got https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqmIq7_RQh0 wich says to use fx and i did and the guy said to go in system/efs/carrier but there is no carrier folder in my efs folder.

on the unlock post someone suggested to flash the mj4 modem so i first flashed the stock nc5 rom, then i rooted using CF-auto root method from chainfire and finally flashed the mj4 modem but the problem is exactly the same.

after this there is still no carrier folder in my efs folder so i can't try to access hidden menu.

i still have 1.5 years on my telekom contract so switching is not an option. plus telekom is the best for me right now so....... can anyone please help?

i wanted to give all the details i knew so the post ended up being very large. i apologize for that and thank you for reading.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jimzweb1:
First I would save all your data to a PC and do a factory reset. Then Odin a fresh copy of NC5 and get back to bone stock, let the device sit for 10 minutes and settle down then root. Now bloat and set it up as a daily user, now make a back up so you have a base to work from. Here is a link to help with that http://xdaforums.com/note-3-sprint/general/samsung-note-3-rom-flashin-basics-t2896440 . Next try downloading and then reinstalling the above mentioned apk again to see if you got a bad download or install the first time. To get into the hidden menu use this apk http://xdaforums.com/note-3-sprint/themes-apps/app-one-click-hotspot-enabler-menus-t2816159 Enjoy !!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Valentin6282:
sry for the dallied response. thank you for the apk to access hidden menu. it worked and i managed to fix the problem thanks to that.

so again thank you.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natethai:
My tablet just died recently with the red x over the thunderbolt. I plugged my tablet with its charger that it came with into the wall and PC. It would turn on and show me the loading circle and the battery. Next, it would show the battery charging but it stops after 1 blue bar and then turns off. And It repeats over and over again. Does it have to do with my tablet or my charger/charger cord? I have already tried all the button combinations and other methods I have found in other forums and they don't work for me. Is this a battery issue? I've had it for 2 years and got it refurbished. Please help me!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] mercyme:
Recently upgraded by phone from the s4 to the s5. The S4 is such a fantastic phone. Everything is where its supposed to be but the s5 is too good to pass up.

Anywho, I have noticed some changes...at least on the phone that I have:

The flashlight (camera flash) on the s4 is brighter than the s5

The speaker phone and head piece is louder on the s4 than then s5... I did a comparison with both stock roms and both custom roms.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kenjistar:
Hi,

right in this moment I have a tablet that doesn't work properly and I'm looking for a method to "inject" the right code into it.

The premise is that it doesn't respond at any kind of command (by touch or by key) even if they work properly and it has a usb port and a sd slot.

Do you have any suggestion?
[XDA Assist] Deafz1:
I had attempted to reflash my At&T Galaxy Note 2 I1317 to a previous ROM from 4.4.2 or whatever the most current firmware is, and did not know that the firmware would prevent this, I've attempted loading several different ROMs through Odin and I was only able to find one that worked and would pass on Odin, and samsung kies would not register the phone to restore or recover it, but now when I start the phone it goes to the final samsung logo right before the phone would be useable and stays there, I've tried looking everywhere I could and being new to this i have honestly little idea what i need to do, but if I can even get the phone back to the most recent firmware and working I would be beyond satisfied what should I do?
[XDA Assist] Darth:
Hi,

First I'm going to suggest you read through the guides and tutorials that are linked in this thread.

> AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II > AT&T Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > ***STICKY THREAD (All Sticky Threads Here)***

Read them well and read them twice. I say this because you honestly don't seem to understand what different things are for or how to use them. For example, Odin is for flashing official firmware and custom recovery mostly, not for roms. And kies won't work as soon as you modified your device. Also, Odin won't work if Kies is running on you pc. These are important things to understand, or you could destroy your device.

Not lecturing you... Just trying to help. Reading all the guides and tutorials will give you the knowledge to do this stuff far safer.

K... That said, for help, if you still need it after the thread above, and future questions on this device.... You can ask here,

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenjou_89:
help please. the camera works fine with stock roms, but since I flashed DU official 8.1, any intention to take a photo (regardless of camera app) makes the screen freeze (not force close, it just freezes while generating the photo, and the save animation does not play, and no photo is created ) except for the nav bar back and home buttons. this happens with every custom roms I have tried after the first event. I used to think it was a matter of DU rom, but it also happens with mokee, pa, liquidsmooth, mahdi, spirit and pac. I have tried several solutions like flashing cam libs, stock cam apps, reflashing custom rom, flashing custom kernels, but the only method that makes camera apps work again is flashing stock roms through fastboot. I have an xt1032. it only happens with the back camera, photos taken with the front camera are saved as usual and the apps don't freeze. please bring a ray of light into my case, I don't know what else to try.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenjou_89:
thank you, it seems the camera works for now. it is nice that it now receives updates in spite of using a custom rom. however after flashing this zip, dalvik cache for user apps was wiped (without me performing any wipe) and then the theme engine broke. I can't install any theme apks manually, and if I try to install one from the playstore, I get an error notification and the " uninstall" button becomes "install" again. also, themes installed manually appear to be of 0.00MB. I will reflash my current rom and post the results later.

EDIT: clean reflashed and immediately flashed the cam+libs zip. everything works :D thanks a lot!!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] littlenarf:
Alright, so im trying to superCID my Dopod 838 Pro. I've read the wiki and all the threads that i can find, and everything seems to go according to plan. Except i cannot verify SuperCID status.

I downloaded pofs http://pof.eslack.org/hermes-unlocker/

I flashed the radio, and received the "Upgrade Error 114" as expected.

I then ran HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe on the device, and after a minute i get a "Your device was SUCCESSFULLY unlocked and changed to SuperCID." message.

From mtty (after booting the device into the bootloader) i get the following results from the suggested commands.

USB>task 32

Level = FF

USB>info 2

HTCSDOPOD001Û<wHTCEUSB>

From what i understand, my device is still CIDlocked.

I want to make sure that superCID is enabled before i go flashing the ROM.

I've gone back and reread the instructions and repeated this procedure three times now.

Any suggestions as to what i might be doing wrong?

In the bootloader i see the following:

HERM100

IPL-1.01

SPL-1.04

thanks/Richard.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] .VIBE:
What radio version do you have currently installed? When you run the downgrade to radio 1.16 (attached to the unlock v2a) and get a error 114 you have to rerun it till the red progress bar appears and the radio is flashed to 1.16. Only then can you run superCID.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] littlenarf:
I have radio version: 1.06.00.10 installed.

Other versions are:

ROM Version: 1.23.707.4

ROM date : 07/21/06

Protocol version: 32.37.7010.01H

I see. Is the red bar to appear on the computer or the device? I received error 114 every time.

edit: when updating i see "Upgrade. Radio Stack. Please wait..." on the device. This message doesnt go away, even after error 114 , until i soft reset the device.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] littlenarf:
I've rerun it now an additional 5 times. I get no red bar.

Also, it wouldn't be a downgrade of the radio, as im trying to go from 1.06 to 1.16, but im not sure thats relevant.
