How come some some imei will be imidiately accepted, and some have to wait for 7 days?

Because I use my own imei and they say must wait 7 days, and I use my friend's imei they accept it imidiately and say no upgrade needed.

or maybe you're entering the wrong imei, like me tried more than 10 times. it say enter the right imei or wait for 7 days after purchase.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cruzzmz:
the IMEI will be accepted once you register it at the website but do keep in mind that the IMEI can be register on the country site only (i think) also as for the new ROM i think they have removed it since i couldn't find it anymore :( .... well i have uploaded the rom to esnips ... link down

Would anyone be able to post or send me the stock Kitkat CalendarProvider.apk? I think I may have removed it by accident and Google Calendar appears to need it to.. well, sync calendars.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ismellburnttoast:
Or any KitKat (4.4.2) version of it may do the trick.. The only ones I was able to find via Google were older and cause Calendar to crash on start.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ismellburnttoast:
I found one here which adds the calendar sync option back to my accounts but it fails to sync, and the calendar app itself crashes on start. I'm pretty sure this is the only dependency tho.

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pietro.currao:
Hi, I looked for other threads in which someone else faced the same problem, but I have not found any answer nor good solution.

The problem is that the screen of my S3 MINI turns on automatically.

I changed the ROM twice (2 different ones, CM 10 and 11), so I don't think the reason is a single "defective" app: I believe in another explanation, according to which the reason would be a broken pin inside the microUSB port of the smartphone.

That pin let turn the screen on like if it was put /unput in charge.

The Question: is there a ROM / KERNEL / APP that prevent the screen from making this error?

How much is hard to edit a rom/kernel in order to avoid that the screen lightness wolud depend from that pins?

And if the reason is a defective app, has someone ever discovered which one is?

I'm afraid it's a way to screw the consumer: this automatic and uncontrollable activity of the display destroys the battery life. It's like if the smartphone is broken: you should change it.

I cannot accept that a 440€ smartphone acts in this way. I'll never buy a Samsung product.

I won't talk about the home button broken (could someone give me an advice on which app that simulates the virtual buttons is better?).

Thank to you all!

UPDATE 28/12/2014 h14:34 ITA

UPDATE 03.01.2015

I fixed the issue at the moment. I installed CM 11-20140823 after wiping and formatting data.

I installed the lowest number of Google Apps (here I chose Nano Modular Package: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44417509#post44417509 ).

I'm quite sure it's a issue caused by a unidentified google app, because when the phone was "clean", the screen kept turned off ALWAYS, unless I pressed the accension button.

Now that I installed ONLY Google Play and Google Services, the screen is ok.

So I will download only the most useful Google Apps, hoping that won't find the one infected (if I'm right about the cause of the automatic flash of the screen).

I also discussed about this issue here , and I discovered that many people are searching for a solution.

Maybe someone could confirm or contradict my theory.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viktor1926:
Im experiencing a huge problem with battery...

First the battery drain is too big to be real 100 to 0 for like an hour of browsing...

What is more is that when the battery gets like 30% the phone sometimes just shuts down like and acts like the battery is fully drained and the only way to turn it back on is to connect it to a charger first and when i turn it on its on 0% battery.

I'm running all stock, no rom, not even unlocked, I sideloaded both 5.0.0 and 5.0.1 updates.

Here is some screenshots, could it be a bad 5.0.1 update?

Haven't done factory reset....thats the reason for not flashing it, didnt want to lose data..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Well, it could be hardware but best thing to do is rule out.software so best bet would be to factory reset after backing up your data. Maybe even flash back to stock.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viktor1926:
Flash back to 4.4 or ? Pretty sure its software tho
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I would flash full 5.0.1 if a factory reset doesnt work. If its still the same, then try 4.4.4.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viktor1926:
The reason behind not flashing already etc etc is that i dont wanna lose my warranty. That leaves me with factory reset and nothing else for solving it? Should I just copy all my storage to PC or should I use some application for the backup?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Where did you buy it?

Backup with something like carbon and yes, copy your sdcard to pc if you need to keep it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viktor1926:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You'd need to reset the flag then afterwards. Its all covered in the flashing stock guide in general > sticky roll-up. Not saying you should do it, just letting you know. Though after you factory reset i would recommend you probably just contact the company and let them fix it.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fourteentwentyfour:
I'm having the exact same problem...

I updated to 5.0 when the OTA was sent out OTA but then sideloaded 5.0.1 two weeks ago.

Since then I've been experiencing the same shut downs where the phone thinks the battery is dead. If I leave the phone off for a minute or two, restart it and then leave it for a few hours, the battery level slowly increases back up to what it actually is.

I'm guessing it's a software issue but I'm losing patience waiting for 5.1 to cure it.

I'm now thinking of downgrading back to 4.4.4 till 5.2 comes out. Very frustrating!

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] issavvas:
Hi guys and thanks in advance for any answers.

1. I have bought an HTC One M8 and tried to flash the Venom ROM, so here are the facts.

2. Initially I tried to install lollipop but it was failing because of firmware version. it required 3.18 or 3.19.

So instead i tried to install Venom ROM. everything went fine

2. So, firmware 3.16 was installed and when i in stalled the ROM wifi was not working properly. So i tried to update the firmware.

step 1. was to update the cid to "1111111".

3. Copied the new firmware zip

4. reboot in hboot and installed the new firmware. in the meantime i had disabled (unticked) the fastboot option in the setting.

5. when the phone rebooted it got stuck in the HTC screen and has a lock st the bottom.

6. I waited untill the battery drains and connected it to my laptop. I get the message device is not recognized. i tried several drivers.

7. once i managed to boot in hboot (i really dont know how i did this since power and volume combo does not work) but accidentally clicked to install the firmware. so had to reboot and wait until the battery drains again. I cannot send any commands from the laptop to my phone and i cannot. Power and volume button combo will not work.

any help much appreciated, i willing to donate/pay to anyone who can really helps. thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
if you have the padlock you seem to be stuck somewhere between GPE and Sense ... The last time you saw the bootloader was it black ?

Explain in detail flashing the firmware and the link to the firmware might help.

in the mean time hold power + volume up for 10 seconds or so, till the phone shuts off and then change to volume down and power to enter the bootloader, when in the bootloader just wait for further instructions

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jball:
If you can get to the bootlooader/hboot than you can fastboot flash recovery

(twrp/philz) custom recovery like you most likely did after unlocking the bootlooader initially.

Do you still have the "0P6BIMG.zip" on the root of the external sdcard ?

Are you S-OFF by chance?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
If you got to the bootloader your phone is fixable. you still need to tell me what file you used and how you flashed it.

I also need your carrier info and possibly what your phone said in the bootscreen before you flashed the first RUU.

A fastboot getvar all is always helpful in figuring what files you need to flash next

Great Point, if you have the "0P6BIMG.zip" on the root of the external sdcard Delete it ! or rename it.

Also it's hard to see in the picture is the padlock locked ? is the bootloader relocked or unlocked ?

Have you tried flashing TWRP to the phone yet?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] issavvas:
Hi there guys. Thanks, I have managed to boot in recovery and all that. It was unlocked in relocked it and unlocked it again and tried to install again the rom again.

So, current status:

1. HBOOT 3.19 (black screen)

2. Recovery clockworkmod v6.0.4.8

3. S-Off

4. Tried to install viper mod from team venom and get the error set_perm: some changes failed

I tried the same wIth twrp and I get the sym_link error.

Next thing I'll try to install the latest twrp and try again.

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadProfessor2002:
Hi All.

I am looking for help and advice with regards to getting my wife's Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini GT-I8190N working again.

My wife has been having issues with this phone restarting it's self at random on and off for the last few months, but as the phone is always in use/needed, I have been unable to have a look for the cause of the problem.

A few weeks ago the phone powered down, and would not switch back or, it would also not charge.

After removing the battery and having a closer look it seems that the battery has swollen and is no longer flat so a new replacement battery was ordered.

The new replacement battery was fitted and the phone was put on charge, the phone displayed that is was now charging, I thought all was good and just left the phone to charge.

Some time later on I tried to power on the phone, but am just greeted by "Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini GT-I8190N" logo and then the phone just restarts again, and keeps on doing this.

The phone is 100% stock, it has not been unlocked or re-flashed.

The phone is on contract from Tesco Mobile, but my wife has been told by Tesco that the warranty has expired.

From searching on the forum it seems that it is quite common for Samsung phones to get stuck in this kind of boot loop.

So far it seems that there are two possible ways to fix the current issue.

1 - Power off the phone and go into boot-loader and do a factory reset.

or

2 - Re-flash the stock rom.

So I thought I would 1st try the factory reset.

So I removed and replaced the battery, Held down "Volume Up, Home, Power", I am then greeted by "Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini GT-I8190N" logo and the phone just sits there.

So it now looks like the only other option is to re-flash the phone with the stock rom.

But how do I find out what stock rom that I need for this phone, as I am unable to get into the bootloader to run any ADB or FastBoot commands.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

Best Regards.
