[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ggcoolz:
So I have the PIT file for my S3 International version. Every time I flash it with Odin it stuck on "get pit for mapping" for HOURS. I assume I have the right PIT file, because if is not right, Odin will show fail right away. At one point, I forgot what I did, it showed "Can't open serial COM port", so I am wondering if these two problems are somewhat related?

Can anyone had the exact problem lend me a hand?

Thanks a ton.

I agree with you. Im not sure if Jaunt did this cold play one but if it's the same guys who did Hobbit VR, Black Mass Trailer etc, they really need to step up their game. The bitrate and the quality of the video is pure crap. I still can't get over it... Even the mongolian hut demo and the circus demo was 10 times better than these.
[Samsung Gear VR] yzf750:
Just give us a youtube VR player or that supposed Milk VR player, and quit putting 100 megabyte demo videos out :) At least then its a slim app and we can just watch what we want without downloading the gigs on the phone storage.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] buracho:
Hey all! Is the Z Ultra still worth buying today? It has one of the best displays around, its design is not matched and it is half the price than when it was released which is around 300$ now.

But here is my dilema, at 300$ there are small tablets like the galaxy tab S 8.4 and others with great screens and battery life to compete. With that said my biggest concern which led me to consider other devices is the mixed review I got on battery life. But there is no great place to ask except ZU veterans :)

IS IT THAT BAD?? I do reading and watch occasional videos with average of 4hrs of screen on time with 3g/4g constantly browsing and downloading/uploading. Can't it handel that?

Are the days of the Z Ultra over or does it have some fight in it to compete?? I am all ears to listen to what you all got to say.

Thanks in advance!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
Previously on Kitkat I would get around 4.5 hours of screen on time.

Now I'm getting around 2 hours on Lollipop... :(
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] buracho:
Thanks for relying kanej2006.

Wow 2hrs is ridiculous. Is it under heavy usage like high graphiics games and such or foe simply texting and phone calls? I want to buy it badly but that is not unacceptable for me....
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] kanej2006:
Some wi-fi usage and web browsing. However, this was done whilst the screen was at full brightness.

I'd say Kitkat was better for battery life. Should you be patient, Lolipop 5.1 will be released for the Xperia Z Ultra sometime in February.

Bugs and stability/performance and battery should all be improved.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] buracho:
OK granted! I hope so.

what do you say about outdoor visibility of the screen. Have you had any issues with that?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] theinspector:
Normally with every device i have used, i havent been able too see anything while outside. If i turn the brightness up, i can read and see everything fine. The phone has the latest android lollipop, and does have a good display with some still very good specs, i havent found anything that does not run perfectly. With lollipop, this thing just flys. My battery life is around 5 hours with very heavy usage, that is because i am always watching videos, or playing games, searching the web, etc. With light to medium usage this lasts me easily all day and then sone. I have unlimited 4g LTE and stream movies all the time, it works great.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] buracho:
Thanks for replying theinsector!

Ive been asking around and am getting roughly the same answers. 5-6hrs on heavy usage which is good news for me, and with some tweaks and mods things will get even better I hear, which makes it that much great. With the visibility issue, if setting the brightness at maximum will do the trick, then i have no complaints. I rarely use it in bright daylight but I don't want to squint and stress my eyes when I do. thanks again!

Remove the battery while phone is running and restart. Hopefully that will fix it. Otherwise you may have to do a factory reset. Or, your phone is damaged.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberPro.Biz:
I've had the same issues with my Note 4. I searched a lot online trying to find an answer.

If it was a hardware problem, I think you would see WAY more people having an issue. Plus I tried one persons attempt and it worked for me.

I removed Tesla Flashlight app and rebooted (not factory reset). Once the phone turned back on, the camera worked fine. I've heard from others to remove any flashlight type app and it fixes it.

Again if it was a hardware problem, I don't see how removing certain apps would fix it. It could be a hardware/software issue.

My problem now is that I use my flashlight a lot and if I can't have a flash light on my phone, I consider it a major FAIL for Samsung. Such a shame because I've been such a supporter for so many years.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whitelightercarl:
This problem occurs because your flashlight app could be locking out your camera hardware in order for it to use the flash. This behavior maybe different for other flashlight app so try switching to other app.

Oddly for my model of Note 4 I don't need to download a flashlight app since there's already a built in widget in there plus it can function even when I use the camera. Try looking for it in the widgets menu it's name is torch with a green icon.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] marscandybars:
I am running On Farias Rom. I noticed that before, when i pressed the "end" button, it would minimize the program. Now when i press the end button it disconnects me from my GPRS connection. Is there any way to stop this? With the older roms, i would only be disconnected from GPRS is i HELD the end button down for a couple of seconds. Now it disconnects me immediately after i press the end button. This poses some problem for my instant messaging programs which require an active connection. This problem is NOT solved by keeping the GPRS always on. All that setting does is reconnect me to the GPRS when i get disconnected (by pressing the end button). Is there any way to reverse this so that i only disconnect if i HOLD down the end button?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] notyourdaddy:
this is starting to make sense now. This is why i have to hit end twice to get back to the home screen. annoying...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dcdivenut:
I also have Faria's ROM and could not duplicate your issue. I am not saying you aren't experiencing it, just that whether I am at the today screen or in a program and I hit the "end" key (red phone icon, right?) it either takes me back to the today screen or if I am already there makes the phone beep at me.

When I held it for a few seconds it did terminate the GPRS connection, but then it kicked right back in again. I have registry wizard set to "always on GPRS"

Sorry I can't actually help...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] marscandybars:
But that's also another thing. I don't want it ALWAYS on. I need it on when i am using it. But when i am using it, i don't want it to disconnect GPRS when i press the end button. It should only disconnect from GPRS if i HOLD down the end button (yes, the red telephone key). Having my GPRS always on, and the window that keeps popping up to tell me that it is reconnecting after i ended a phone call or stopped the gprs connection gets rather annoying. Not to mention the gigantic battery drain it is to have the connection on 247
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] andylch:
If you do not want to disconnect GPRS with the END (call) button, you can set the value of the following registry key to 1:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\(GPRS connection name)\AlwaysOn
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] nightcrawler218:
Thanx a tonn man

Thanx for the registry key value... I am a noob, you actually saved me. I was just about to flash my current ROM just because the registry value is set to 0. & the gprs DISCONNECTS AFTER PRESSING red button. tHANX A LOT.

CHEERS...

Hi all,

is there any advantages of having a unlocked bootloader over a locked.

as development has come a long way since launch is there any benefits of having a unlocked bootloader ?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anoniemouse:

I don't know then as I've had a galaxy s4 since first came out and the galaxy s4 has never had a locked bootloader
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The I9500 and I9505 shouldn't have a locked bootloader. Galaxy S4 devices for AT&T and Verizon in the United States however DO lock their bootloaders. Locking, or more accurately, encrypting the bootloader, makes it extremely difficult if not nearly impossible to load custom ROMs. Which is why you don't want one if you can help it.

In the Q&A forum there is a thread where a forum member describes purchasing what was supposed to be an I9505 off eBay. Through some detective work it was discovered that his device was a Frankenstein, in that it had the IMEI of an I9505 but the motherboard and the other components were from an AT&T SGH-I337. Thus, his "I9505" had a locked bootloader. At last report he was going to contact the seller about this. I thought about offering him a straight up swap, since he needed an I9505 and I could use his phone here in the US and get LTE, but the fact the IMEI is not what originally came with the hardware has me pausing.

If you have an I9505 and a locked bootloader, your phone may have been "refurbished" in this manner by a third party. It might be a good idea to check your phone and see what you have.

My grey-market SM-T325 TabPro LTE was, I thought, the UK (BTU) version (the included charger has the UK-style plug). Now, after searching w/o success for the online ROM which matches mine, I now realize that I seem to have the Taiwan (OZS) version. I'm just now learning to read those country codes! The ONLY posted OZS ROM I've found that appears to match mine in terms of NAME has a LATER release DATE (12/2014). Never mind. There's an error on the spreadsheet listing on sammmobile's site. Once I clicked on the details for the OZS file, I found the release date to be IDENTICAL to mine.

From my device:

AP: T325ZSU1BNK1

CP: T325ZSU1BNK1

CSC: T325OZS1BNK1

Baseband version T325ZSU1BNK1

Kernel version 3.4.0-3264299dpi@SWDD6219#1 Tue Nov 11 21:20:55 KST 2014

Build number KOT49H.T325ZSU1BNK1

Why does this matter? Because I need the kernel which matches my present ROM so I can restore it after doing the Towelroot bit.

OK. This is now a self-answering post.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] don_alberto:
Hi all,

I need the pros here. It's NOT the regular wipe/clean/factoryreset bla bla issue.

received OPO from china with colorOS. Having the strangest behavior ever! I just can't install cyanogenmod 44S.

First I'll describe what I did:

unlock bootloader + TWRP with root + installed 44S using that comes prerooted from here: http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-one/development/rom-stock-rooted-4-4-4-xnph44s-t2932551

device stuck on boot (powered by android msg)

wipe dalvik/cache didn't help.

wiped again ((format dalvik cache data system) and installed using fastboot official 44s from here: http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-one/general/official-cm11s-roms-ota-updates-t2906746

eventually after almost having a heart attack and trying all the permutation of wiping/installing official/unofficial cyanogem 44S - I thought installing an older version.

I can'ts emphasize how many times and effort I put into installing 44S.

I then wiped everything again (format dalvik cache data system), rebooted to recovery and installed 25s official.

It's working!

now I try to update but OTA doesn't find anything. tried reverting to cyanogenmod recovey also but that didn't help.

so I thought installing the zips one by one (the OTA ones) but that doesn't work because I get error executing updater binary in zip and something with apache.xml

In addition, I hate the fact I don't have native OTA...

Please help me upgrade to 44s and if possible - restore OTA functionality. I have this strange feeling that I destoryed something in the device internally or something. I don't see a reason why 44S won't work on my device after having full wipe....

I love you all please help!!! Thanks!!!!

p.s - One time I did succeed booting to 44S but when I reset the device (after factory reset) It was stuck again in boot screen.

I suspect it's something to do with either Color OS that came with my device handles file differently and left some buggy stuff that cyanogemnod can't handle OR cyanogenmod changed the ROM in 44s to raise somekind of a flag for china OPO (however with 25 I still can't use OTA or manual OTA zip)

It really sucks...I don't know what else to do.

Is there a special cleaning methodology I can use? (except format system/data/cache/dalvik from TWRP) to make the device as clean as possible before installing using fastboot?

UPDATES:

was able to install 33R using fastboot and everything works amazing including OTA...

BUT - after updating to 38R I have the same issue again. The device doesn't pass the boot screen.

UPDATE 2: After going to sleep frustrated with the device Off I woke up and tried to turn it on - and - it's working. how weird is that?

UPDATE 3: with 38R working (I really don't know how) I got OTA to 44S. I gladly updated. after pressing 'Install Update' the device turned off and didn't show the regular update script running in TWRP. Now the device stuck on boot screen again...so i'm back to square one.

Could it be that cyanogen changed something to block china versions?
