Per a request in another thread:

Droidfish playstore version does not work (engine stops/fails to start).

Droidfish 64 bit beta works. With recentapps cleared, thread set to auto, a ~120 second test leads to a nps of 1085k. See screenshot below.
[Nexus 9 Themes and Apps] maxecume:
I am the "requester" and I thank Nidstang.

It seems that the present official play store version doesn't work...

The official developper Peter Osterlund posted a 64 bit beta version on a forum;

so, here's the link and the "how to":

1) After rebooting, download and install Droidfish :

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/89684995/DroidFish.apk

(don't forget to unmark "unknown sources" on phone settings / apps / security)

2) Clear all apps in background (hold home and swipe them away) and then run droidfish.

3) Press the menu button, invoke "Settings", choose "Threads" and select "Automatic" or "2", and then press back button to get back to chess board.

4) There is button with label "M" below chess board. Press it and choose "Analysis Mode". Analysis will start. Keep it running for about 1 or 2 minutes.

5) After 2 minutes passed, read and record the "knps": number at bottom of the screen. This is the measurement we're interested in. This value is a number of positions searched per second (in thousands). The higher the better.

6) IMPORTANT: To force program to STOP thinking, press "M" button again, choose "Two players" so that analysis will stop. Post the results here with rom information (optional). Stock rom is preferable but other roms are welcomed.

if you want to try the play store version (maybe updated someday...) :

I will post a ranking with the other phones and tablets in the coming days...

it's up to you to test... ;)

Thank you!
[Nexus 9 Themes and Apps] Nidstang:
Just ran the test again with "Threads" set to "4" instead of "Auto" -- resulted in nps:1093k.

Results are roughly the same regardless of reboot.

Unit is stock ROM, bootloader locked, not rooted.
[General Questions and Answers] ibrahimkhan:
Hello everyone. I have unlocked my bootloader and i want to root my device, there is any way to root without flash a custom recovery?? Can i flash supersu zip file directly from recovery....this is my first question i dont where to post this thread... And sorry for bad english..!!!
[LG Optimus L3 II, L5 II, L7 II, L9 II] invadermeaow:
Hullo, chaps

Well, My case is the following:

My Phone screen died because I let it fall too many times, and the last one lits pf people ran over it at a party XD. It was an LG L5 II.

I decided to get a new one, but I wanted the same model and brand beacuse I was really satisfied with it. So I went to buy a new one. I bought and updated its software (At that time I had no idea the update made video fail).

My phone came with YouTube 4.5.17, which works perfectly but I wanted to have the new features, so, a few days later I bought and updated it, I upgraded YouTube app from Play-store (to 5.17.6) and it stopped working, videos kind of charged but never playbacked. I tried everything. Signing in and out, clearing cache, deleting data, rebooting, cleaning ram, cleaning junk, deleting dalvik-cache, delete all app cache, virus checking, even Youtube troubleshouting, checked if played in 3g and so on. Nothing worked.

Then I had the brilliant idea that if I installed an older version of YouTube it may work, so I took my older phone (same brand and model but the screen is not working) and copied the YouTube app (5.7.38), that was working in that phone and has the feature I like (the one you can search while watching videos) but it didn't work, the same problem with playback. I tried everything again, but again nothing worked.

So, thinking it was a hardware problem, I went to the shop and changed my phone for another one. I tested youtube and it worked. I updated youtube app and it worked. So I came back home happy. Here I updated my software... then youtube didn't stop working. And finally I applied two fxcking patches. And after that... the same problem.

Just now I realised that the problem was not the YouTube app nor the hardware, but the patches LG provided through its software update app.

What can I do. How can I roll back those specific patches?

I felt so stupid, but I had no way how to prove it was the patches.

I was tons of hours today at the shop trying to change my device and I won't go again.

Screenshots attached to show the problem.

Thanks in advance.

My Note 4 suddenly decided that it couldn't stay paired with my 2011 Kia Soul. It worked fine initially but since the OTA update it loses pairing everytime I shut the car. I can re-pair just fine. Park and return 5 mins. later and I get the Pairing Failed message. It repairs and works fine until the next time I park. Anybody have any similar experience? Thanks

Hotspot option disappeared

After an update phone got on a loop on boot. I tot it with factory file, rooted, installed 2faced again. Everything is fine, but ever since the hotspot option is missing. How do I get it back?
[Sprint LG G2] Artifesto:
I'm sorry about this. I just recently got a working computer again but haven't developed for the G2 in a long while. I have since moved onto the Galaxy S5
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
[MENTION=3155471]Artifesto[/MENTION]

Glad to see you have got a computer again. We are sorry to see you go. Though some of us know a year has gone by and so does most development for phones.

May those S5 users enjoy your work as much as we have.

Good luck in your future endeavors.

We will miss you.
[Sprint LG G2] Artifesto:
i would continue the G2 work if my G2 didn't just turn off and never turn back on for me. So i kind of had to get a new phone, almost went to the Lumia Icon but I'm glad I stuck with Android
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
I would love to get into developing or such, but I need a better system. The one I have tried to do so with, keeps locking up. With minimal things running.
[Sprint LG G2] Artifesto:
I could quote you what i put into mine but it would easily put you in the $2k range for a build, which is about to go up as i will likely SLI 2 GTX 980's

Yeah, I was trying to build with a dell optiplex 210l. Processor was released back in 2004. Lol

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
im in need of a firmware file that i can flash through stock recovery or a md5 file to flash in odin. what happened was i flashed the wrong modem in safestrap and got a unauthorized software error and wouldnt start into the system. so after hours of headache i tried just wiped my stock clean under safestrap. doing that made me lose safestrap so i only have download mode and stock recovery. i tried flashing the NC1 and MF1 md5 and it failed. so did the pit flash. on my box it says the version is i535.NF1. so maybe it wont flash correctly cause i have the wrong firmware. Verizon upgrade utility fails to repair it also. so could someone upload the NF1 md5 or flashable zip to help me out? i wasnt having any support at ALL on the android forums site. so im hoping it will be more supportive here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
There is no nf1 firmware.

Mf1/ml1/nc1/ne1

I'm guessing you need ne1, but post what the text says in download mode so we can be sure we give you the correct firmware to flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
thanks for such a haste reply. according to the site that i uploaded as an image, there is a NF1 firmware for the S3. i need the one that says all_something something NF1. it has the like redo of everything lol. or so i have read. the GS3 i had before this one, same exact model it read ND3 which is also listed on there. but thats not the case now. i need the NF1. it says thats the software version on the side of the box it came in. oh and unfortunately my cameras to crappy to get a good focus in on the download mode screen shot but if it helps this is exactly what download/odin mode says...

ODIN MODE

PRODUCT NAME: SCH-I535PP

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO

CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL

SYSTEM STATUS: CUSTOM

QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE

BOOTLOADER AP SWREV: 1

then down below that is

Downloading...

Do not turn off target!!

and thats it. nothing else. its funny how it says custom still yet it has no OS/rom on it right now lol. i wiped it with safestrap which i lost after wiping :\ thats why im desperate for the firmware....again i appreciate the hastey help lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
As stated in the previous response there is no NF1 firmware. The website your pulling this from isn't necessarily legit. I wouldn't pull this from any random site but that's just me

Also just checked Sam mobile and confirmed the firmware is indeed NE1

From my CM11 S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Maybe it's a page plus firmware??

I wouldn't know where to find that around here.

Edit: I need to know the entire firmware number, and are you sure your model is sch-i535pp? I don't want you flashing something that will hard brick your phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Looked up the page plus S3 and the model number is SGH-R530 that one and this one have nothing to do with each other. Other than sharing the S3 name. I think they might be a little confused. I did read somewhere that there was an update beyond NE1 but I haven't seen it anywhere

From my CM11 S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
it has to be NF1. when i first got it, it ran android 4.3 not 4.4 which from my understanding the NE1 is 4.4 which is kitkat. that isnt what im trying to get. (heard it has terrible battery life so i never took the update) yes i am sure it is i535PP. its on the back of my phone and even on its back casing that covers the battery. i already have tried flashing I535VRUCML1_I535VZWCML1_HOME.tar.md5 and I535VRUCNC1_I535VZWCNC1_HOME.tar.md5 found on the samsung site to get firmware. tried flashing in pda in odin. i get an auth error and my download mode says secure check fail sbl2. im glad it failed if it wasnt right. dont need a hard bricked phone lol. heres what the side of the box says that came with it. again i did not update anything on it so all the things should be the same.

VZW-SKU SCHI535MPP

SW-VER. I535.NF1

PRL 58024

then under my battery, the sticker that has the MEID an stuff. it reads

model: SCH-i535PP

SKU: SCH-i535MPP

FCC ID: A3LSCHI535

made in china and under that is my MEID but i dont think youll require that lol

need any other info just let me know. just keep in mind i can only get into stock recovery or download mode

thanks again for the help everyone. i appreciate your time
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
oh and no idea if this helps or not but on the lower corner of the box it reads SCH-i535MBPVZW

i just wish i could remember what was the build number. i know this same S3 under verizon prepaid, same model an everything. had ND3 at the end of the build number. hope this info helps to even though its not much. oh and this phone im trying to fix didnt have the ND3 at the end of the build number, it said NF1...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Found it!

http://mobilefileserver.com/category.aspx?get=36643

Third line down, nf1 firmware. Looks like a good file size and full firmware number.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
yes i know thats the firmware i need. i had that screenshot uploaded on one of my posts in this thread. i was just trying to not pay 40 bucks to get a membership just to download that one file. and the other guy said it may not be legit....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
O I see, hmm, well an nf1 firmware didn't sound legit at first.

If you can't find that firmware you probably won't have a working phone. You need to get your firmware somewhere. You can try upgrading with our 4.4 NE1 firmware, but the 4.3 ML1 and NC1 files did not work for you. That's the only download I was able to find, but that's definitely correct. It still may not be a legitimate file.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Anytime you have to pay for a firmware update, at least in my own opinion it's bogus. I wouldn't bother paying that much for a possible piece of crap or spyware/malware

From my CM11 S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
so what do you suggest? does no one here have the S3 under prepaid? is there no way to like make an md5 from some kind of back up of your phones if under prepaid? i hope this isnt the end of the road for me :\
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Most people don't have the prepaid version but some do. Wish I could help

From my CM11 S3

Try to download the Verizon repair utility and see if you can pull it from there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
i already have tried the verizon upgrade utility. it notices my phone in download mode and it says my device which is I535PP with the phone number unknown and i hit repair and it downloaded the software and tries to repair it but the program crashes at 83%. ive tried several times and it does it everytime. i even got desperate and tried the upgrade tab and it dont even recognize my phone in the upgrade tab. im so frustrated with this! :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
i would go ahead and retry it. i was looking for an actual installer but ones i found, i click and run it and it doesnt do anything. dont bring up no installer or anything. i thought if i were to install it instead run it from a zip, it wouldnt crash at 83%. as for the link you gave me. it just redirects me to the verizon home page. nothing about the repair software
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
My guess why it doesn't work is because it's trying to repair with the 4.4 firmware, and not your 4.3 firmware. This won't work.

I'm out of ideas.

Last thing you could do is try to get a hold of somebody with Jtag equipment and see if they have a way to get your firmware. Josh at mobile tech videos is who we usually recommend jtag work to go through. It'll cost $60 to do it, if he can do it.

Sorry man, it's just not a well supported device, nobody posted the firmware in this forum.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
ok but i dont see why id need to pay for such firmware. if it was hard bricked, id understand but just for firmware? as that guy said its bogus if you have to pay for firmware lol. i cant believe they dont have firmware or some kind of recovery zip released for this phone yet. its over 2 years old!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
First of all your not paying for firmware. Jtag is a service which downgrades the bootloader on your phone. It's a very intricate process of editing your motherboard on the phone.

As BadUsername suggested many times and as far as I'm concerned was very helpful you may have to face the fact that your stuck on the issue with have with no turning back

And your on the prepaid version of the VZW S3 which seems to be quite different and impossible to attempt to update or fix. You've been informed more than once that the firmware your looking for doesn't even exist. I'm not sure what else you'd like someone to do. It's been spelled out clearly for you here

From my CM11 S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
What you're asking for isn't released by Samsung or Verizon. Someone has to pull the zip from their update folder or dump it from their system block and package it. If a page plus user did that and posted it, then it would be easy to get you the correct firmware.

Verizon has it packaged in the Verizon repair utility, but it's updated firmware and won't work for you. This is why paying for something is your only option. At least from what I can see. Every other website I use to get firmware does not have it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
well right now im downloading the NE1 update an going to try odin with it, im starting to get careless with this stupid phone. i have no ideas left of how to even fix it. i got the verizon repair utility to open and run, it downloaded the software needs and crashed at 83%. if it rejects this update as well then im out of ideas because who has verizon prepaid of the S3 and actually mods it? i know not many do but i figured since this was a popular phone, there would be tons of development but i see samsung can still overcome those smart devs out there. like the bootloader cant be unlocked on 4.3 or 4.4. so if all else fails, is there any way to at least unroot in download mode? so that the thing doesnt say custom anymore
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
ok i tried wit the NC1 update and it failed. i got some aboot error. so i moved the md5 update to my sdcard and tried to install it there and i keep getting E: signature verification failed. makes no sense cause i got the md5 from sammobile. its official but its not signed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
this is just a thought but not sure where the contract verizon phones are originally built but all over my box and even on the inside of the phone it says it was built and programmed in china. so you think the firmware im seeking is chinese firmware of some kind? ive checked some chinese sites for firmware and they do have the NF1 but its a totally different model. any idea if walmart can reload the phone with the firmware beings thats where it was bought?

as for the filemobileserver site, i checked around on it and theres no comments about the site and another site says its 67 percent safe based on the support and legit images and files. to me thats still 50 50 chance lol. but what other choice do i have? i cant even get into the system and not my minutes and service is going to waste. 60 bucks down the drain. but guess thats my fault for not being careful lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I doubt Walmart would even know what your talking about. Pretty sure most of these phones are made in China, Taiwan or similar

From my CM11 S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
well i returned this phone once to wamart from being bricked from the 4.4 update while being rooted and disabled knox. the guy hooked up some gadgets and knew it was rooted and the fuse in it was fried. im guessing he meant i tripped knox. so i had to give 50 bucks for it to be sent back to be put back into original state. he said the chip had to be replaced. so if he knew that much, maybe there a possibility?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Its possible. Some people do know what rooting and unlocking are. It's a good possibility. Your best bet isn't to keep replacing the phone but to just to with an unlocked bootloader one. Trust me verizon isn't worth the hassle and I'm happy to say I'm no longer on VZW

From my CM11 S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
thats what i thought about doing if all else fails with this phone. just going and buying a new one on a different service like the HTC one on tmobile or maybe it was ATT. cant remember. i just wanted on verizon cause it has like the best service but modding otherwise is a hassle cause everything ive read, verizon loves to lock down everything on there phones. every phone ive had and modded with no problems were through virgin mobile and straight talk. one was the HTC Evo 3D and ZTE supreme both from Virgin mobile. other one was the ZTE Unico from straight talk but that and the supreme had poor development. no one could even get the unico to root. something about being locked down with certificates. if removed and writing new codes to it, it bricks it. no one could figure it out. anyways those two carriers ive had in the past, especially the Virgin mobile phones, which i believe are sprint based dont lock down there phones a whole lot because it was real easy to put a custom fastboot and recovery and rom on the phone but the service was just terrible. lol

i just need a good phone with good specs that can be unlocked an such unlike the S3 and be under Verizon Prepaid but i cant seem to find that with a good size screen (yes im picky lol)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
The nice thing about straight talk is your not limited to a certain phone. I'd dump VZW, prepaid especially. I'm using my S3 on straight talk all while utilizing the VZW network

From my CM11 S3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bjf189:
only thing i dont like about the straight talk one is its not black lol. i dont much care for white phones. just to white for me. i like darker things. plus the verizon black one is only 150 now and the straight talk one is like 260. huge gap between the two and not sure why.

oh and for my phones state, ive tried using odin to flash the NE1, MF1 (might of been ML1) and NC1. everyone of them say secure check fail: sbl1. well the NE1 said secure check fail: aboot. so ive tried the firmwares from samsung and even here on xda fail. there has to be something wrong here...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
I don't know why you don't understand this yet, none of our firmwares are going to work. That's why I didn't tell you a better procedure to get them to work, none of them are going to flash.

It has nothing to do with them being wrong or insecure. They are failing because they are different than the firmware you have on your device. They will fail every single time no matter how many times you try.

The only way you're going to get your phone back is to get a hold of the sch-i535pp NF1 firmware. It is not posted anywhere for free. None of the firmware posted in the forum is going to work for you.

Only other way I can see you getting it fixed is paying someone with a JTAG service to inject your firmware for you or downgrade your bootloader to an unlocked status so you can flash any firmware you want.

It is going to cost money to fix. Unless you can find someone else with an Sch-I535pp willing to dump their system block, then have someone else make a .tar file to flash it.
