As said above flash HardSPLv5 FIRST

and then flash a newer radio, the latest PROVEN radio is 1.38.00.10. A few people have reported battery drain issues with the later iMate radio so i still recommend the radio in the guide.

How to flash HardSPL v5

How to flash radio 1.38.00.10

These guides make it look easy but if you havent read through the wiki please do so since it contains BUCKETLOADS of info.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zim2dive:
Thanks to both of you for the pointers.

I have read the HardSPL page and downloaded HardSPL and the .net framework.

Looking at the install snapshots, my 1st hitch was wondering what SPL I had (since it looks like you need to pick a version during the install).. but I was able to decode that by going to the settings->device info->ROM version, and then indexing down this table http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades to determine that with ROM 1.34.502.1, I should have SPL 1.06 (is there any way to determine this more directly?)

I've grabbed 1.38.00.10 and will give this all a go when I get to work in the AM (and have plenty of time to babysit) (also I figure allowing another 18 hours for other suggestions/cautions to float in isn't the worst of ideas :) )

Will report back when complete. Thanks again for the info.

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mrvanx:
If you READ THE GUIDE it goes through the procedure of finding your SPL and what options to select. Please read it word for word.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zim2dive:
Yes, it most certainly does. (I skipped ahead and was scanning the pictures)

Thanks,

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zim2dive:
I'm sure no one will be surprised, but the update the flawlessly. thanks again for the help. Now to drive around for the weekend and see how the new radio performs.

Cheers,

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] JamesAllen:
Like you, I am a newbie, new 8525, read the wiki and forums for days before taking the plunge. I flashed hard SPL and Radio ROM 1.38. The reception improvement is dramatic and my battery life is dramatically improved. Someone earlier used the word "sip" to describe the minimal power this Radio ROM uses and that is true. I actually wondered on the first day of use if the battery meter was working.

If you follow the upgrade guide to the letter, you should have no problem flashing your device but you must read the guide. I know the experts have told you this but wanted to let you know that a newbie can actually do this successfully.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] autiger:
status on how well the radio works

--I flashed hard SPL and Radio ROM 1.38. The reception improvement is dramatic and my battery life is dramatically improved. Someone earlier used the word "sip" to describe the minimal power this Radio ROM uses and that is true.--

James, HOw long ago did you do this? how long has it been working for you? Just curious. I have had a horrible time with reception and i have tried several of the 'upgrades' but have never touched the radio. So far, not much improvement...so i am curious abot the radio rom upgrade.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mrvanx:
My god please try upgrading the radio right now, generally the radio is responsble for any battery drain issues people are having.

Follow my guides, first make sure you have HardSPL on the device and then flash a newer radio.

See how it goes?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] autiger:
I will I will

MrVanx,

I am trying now. But i am trying to read everything first and your message said upgrade to hardsplv5 and your guide has v6 attached. was there a reason you said v5 instead of v6...i am not having battery drain issues at all, i am only having dropped calls. Thanks for your wisdom. I will wait for your reply on v5 vs v6 and then will flash the radio to 1.38.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mrvanx:
the post said v5 because i wrote that before v6 was released

The guide is updated for v6, please use that. ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] autiger:
DISREGARD...I GOT IT

mrvanx, i am following the guide, but i have a file called ruu wrapper instead of romupgrade.exe. when i try to run this file it fails to execute and gives a windows error. i had .net framework 3.0 running and i have since uninstalled it, but i am still unable to run the ruuwrapper file to upgrade the hardsplv6. any help would be greatly appreciated.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zim2dive:
I'd like to go back and ask about hardware again.. I've installed the new radio, and my reception still bounces around like a yoyo. Start a call with 5 bars, then 10 seconds later down to 0 and drop the call. I'm frankly more comfortable opening up and soldering itty bitty pins on chips vs. my knowledge of the ROM upgrades (so far) anyway.

Thanks for any leads,

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
You're not in one of those areas that has both 2g and 3g coverage are you? If so limit phone to 2g only, otherwise Hermes goes crazy by automatically trying to swap between the two and will drop calls in the process.

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zim2dive:
EDIT: ok, now I see Enable/Disable GSM/UMTS Band Selection in the Wiki tweak section. This appears to be a big step towards what I need... will test for a few days.

Thanks,

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] MikeChannon:
Yes, worth a try at least. Hermes tries to go for strongest signal. However even within one room that can switch about from 2 to 3g. I may be wrong but I believe danielhererro's bandswitch application could make things easier here. Has a nice interface to make it easy to switch bands etc.

Well worth posting back to let us know how things go - even if it's not good news!!

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zim2dive:
Very much another question of ignorance, but might be too basic for the XDA wiki, yet mildly too in depth for Wikipedia...

I do apparently have both GSM and WCDMA in my area (I had previously associated 2G and 3G only with data connections, not voice, so tonite has been educational for me) (it also didn't help that Cingular hides the 'Band' menu from users, so I had no control, nor awareness, before using the registry tweak)

With the Hermes, with both GSM and WCDMA available, is there an obvious preference for me? Or is it a tradeoff of power vs. quality? Or just dumb luck of whichever coverage happens to be better in the exact spot I happen to be?

Thanks,

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] zim2dive:
I can't say my reception is improved, but I do seem to be dropping fewer calls now....

Mike
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Manduck2k3:
Still poor reception

I have a newer 8525 latest rom and 1.40.30.00 raido rom, and it still gets poor reception, I have tried my sim card in a 8125 and V3 and get exelent coverage in the same spot... its always egde if that helps..

anyone have any ideas? If I can't figure it out i'm gonna have to sell it and go back to an 8125..

Thanks

Bluetooth not working after root...

Hi,

After I rooted successfully my device (Galaxy Tab S 10.5 Wifi (SM-T800)), everythig is alright, except for bluetooth. I can't activate bluetooth anymore. Normally, when we puch the bluetooth button, it supposed to turn hard green, but I can see it turn soft green, and return to gray state (Off). Same thing happened when I try to slide the button in the parameter setting, it stay grey and cannot turn on. Can you tell me which the best I can do to correct the situation ?

Thanks !

I am a T800 noob.

I'm trying to make a backup of NK1 with all my apps installed. I am using an HP laptop running Windows 8.1

It appears to hang and do nothing when I try to perform the backup. Is a stock image of NK1 available for download so I could skip this step?

My goal is get a custom recovery installed. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

My other device is the Verizon S4 consumer edition. I am somewhat familiar with Odin, using it to restore the S4 back to stock many times. However the Android Toolkit is all new territory. As I understand it will only work on the developer edition S4.

I really appreciate anyone's efforts in assisting me with this!!
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Are you rooted? If not just flash cfautoroot with odin and you can install twrp recovery with an apk. You wont lose data rooting. To backup your apps I use titanium backup which requires root. Helium is good for both root or not.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Nope no towelroot. You need to use cfautoroot which trips knox. Just download flashify from the play store (needs root) and hit twrp and install. Then you can make a nandroid backup. Im not sure about the nk1 stock image though

Cant write/delete any files after flashing recovery

I Used the tool for flashing twrp.

Everything seems OK but soon most apps couldn't write files to internal storage. Chrome browser for example couldn't download any files

some apps work fine , the Samsung Web browser for example

file manager apps couldn't write or delete any files, Tumblr didn't work at all.

it looks like internal storage was treated like an external SD card.

only way to fix it was to flash a stock Rom and loose all settings. Very annoying. Huge waste of time.

Proper Solution

Guys, I noticed something.

There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING wrong with the bluetooth module. Check your device bluetooth config file (device/(vendor)/(device name)/bluetooth/bdroid_buildcfg.h). The following three lines must be:

#define BLE_INCLUDED TRUE
#define BTA_GATT_INCLUDED TRUE
#define SMP_INCLUDED TRUE

That's it! Bluetooth successfully compiled for me :)

Cheers!

Is anyone interested in a WM6 LVSW Edition (2007-03-26) with 10mb pagepool?

I've already flashed it and it is ready to upload, so if anyone is interested I can upload it here.

Already tried a 8mb pagepool on an AKU 3.3 and found it much quicker, so now i'm trying it with 10mb.

The standard version had 6mb so you will lose 4mb memory when using this version.

But a lager pagepool seems to help a lot with the Widcomm stack, less slowdown ;) and great sound quality.

Ok I've uploaded this version to RapidShare, here is the link:

Does this repackaging actually includes the Widcomm stack?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] trion:
It doesn't include the widcomm stack, but works okay with it :)

It also doens't include the radiorom, but does include IPL en SPL 1.35 OLI.

And also ext.rom.

It is just LVSW version withouth the radio and with the Pagepool edited to 10mb. And Ollipro's 1.35 HardSPL.

So I really didn't do any hard work :) I just thought I share it because I already edited it for myself.
