Anybody can recommend me a custom kernel either boeffla or archies for the last build of this Rom?

And another experience I made is that for instance in Facebook messenger the video I made for somebody i can send but it's not uploading completely and then it got stuck... Trying again not uploading anymore! Any ideas to fix that?

Recovery mode with no power button

Hi. I am desperate. Two weeks ago I had to remove the power button of my S3 because the phone kept rebooting.

Now, I installed Validus ROM and ended into bootloops, so I need to enter into recovery mode. With the power button, this would be easy, however since I don't have it, I don't know what to do.

To turn the phone on, what I did was to remove the battery, put it again, and then plug the phone for one second and unplug it. I tried pressing down volume + home while doing that, and it doesn't change anything. The phone will simply try to boot the ROM.

Is there any way to enter into recovery mode without a power button? Otherwise, I will have to throw my precious S3 to the trash, and I definitely not want that! Please help!

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] monte22:
Well try to search the settings there should be a setting tht adds the reboot button in the notification drawer like all the wifi bluetooth etc.

OR

if the rom has pie searcha nd add the reboot thing or poweroff option in the pie menu.

this are the two thing that came quick to my mind.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mic55hal:
I think you missed quite an important information which he wrote

I unfortunately do not know any other way

or try this:

- Remove the battery

- Connect the phone to the charger

- Keep pressing home and volume +

- Insert the batteries
[Galaxy S III Android Development] monte22:
lol :p:p:angel: just read it again. yes it was quite important.

---------- Post added at 08:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 PM ----------

@ martinrais

u removed the button but there must be a soft touch dot like structure in there which might be accessed with a pointer and pressed. m tottaly guessing here. like when the keyboard button gets off we press the round plastic beneath
[Galaxy S III Android Development] martinrais:
Tried. No luck :(

The phone will try to boot normally.

After removing the button (phisically), the only thing left is the connectors. Perhaps by making conect with some wires I can manage to "press" the power button, although I have no idea how.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] martinrais:
Finally, I managed to fix it by performing adb reboot recovery while the phone was loading the ROM (during the ROM animation).

Also, I verified that the bootloop was cause by installing Boeffla Alpha 6. Why is the Boeffla kernel not compatible with this ROM?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rp158:
[MENTION=3997196]martinrais[/MENTION]: Boeffla 4.0 alpha 3,4,6 differ in RAMdisk-design. If 6 stucks in bootanim, try 4. If it also stucks, take 3.

Hello. For your next manipulations :

If your smartphone is rooted , install ROM Manager . From the menu, you can boot into recovery mode . Otherwise if the ROM Validus ( I downloaded right now) has an advanced option to restart , then use this option. You will find it in Settings ( developer options)

Here link: https://www.sendspace.com/file/66q01b

[Galaxy S III Android Development] singhhacker:
Anti piracy is in the sourcecode

So i cant fix that

I can fix device specific issues

Will talk to the team about that :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] ajo81:
Is there any way I can change that image from my status bar???
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Char_G:
Anti piracy software will not be removed from any official Validus build, per the lead developer.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] singhhacker:
Yes antipiracy code will not be removed :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] LittleCoyote:
Excellent work but anti piracy can be removed , even in this release. :) But what do you want ? I respect !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] singhhacker:
It can be removed.

But if i removed it then i will not get official support from validus team.

Its their policy

And i dont want that :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anantharam:
Is OTA working in this ROM?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] anantharam:
Since no one seems to be around in this thread, let me document my findings for anyone who is interested.

(1) This ROM doesn't have OTA even though mentioned otherwise in the thread title.

(2) This ROM contains ContentGuard. So if you do not want to be affected by this trojan virus avoid using this ROM or use Anti-contentguard measures which can be obtained by a simple Google search.

(3) The normal xposed installer does not work on this rom, use xposed build by wanam.

(4) I have been using this ROM for almost a week now and it seems pretty stable, I have just had a random restart once.

(5) It is buttery smooth and fast like most other lollipop ROMs, and is based on CM so we can use the CM theme engine.

Hi Raimundo , I'm from Portugal and I have a MEO version and I wanted to know the same . I think we have to waited for the unbranded one...
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuno Raimundo:
There is already a unbranded one, not for Portugal but for United Kingdom. My reason to do this is to remove the carrier crap and see if I can get a better battery life.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NonEZ:
I know but we have to wait for the unlocked Portuguese one, i guess...
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuno Raimundo:
Since the hardware is the same I don't think it does any difference if the firmware is for Portugal or United Kingdom. My only doubt is related to the branded phone with unlocked firmware. Still I would like someone with more experience to shed some light in this matter.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nuno Raimundo:
No one care to comment on the possibility of problems in putting an unlocked ROM into a branded phone (locked to a network)?

Yes you can but your device is still locked to the network it came on unless you unlock with a unlock code.

Anybody else experienced this? Same issue persist on stock rom, so I think my battery is shot.. Any tuips or suggestions are appreciated. Battery never charges past 73%, used to be 83%. And constant drop of power.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] otyg:
Have you tried to charge it in Power Off mode (hold power button down for 5 seconds and then choose Power Off) wait a few seconds for it to shut down, then try to charge it - you should see a battery icon, see if it will reach 100% in that state (can press the home button or power button to check status it should show 100% when charged)..

If not make sure you are using the official Samsung Charger and Cable - there are a lot of Chinese knockoffs so try to use originals.

(The reason I ask to try in power-off mode is because it eliminates abusive apps , CPU, Screen On , WIFI, BT, GPS and other settings from sucking power, Power Off mode ensures all the power goes directly to the battery)

Yesterday Verizon posted information about the lollipop update 5.0.1.

I'm assuming that the current 5.73 SafeStrap will not work with the stock 5.0.1 firmware. Do any devs have an idea how to load Roms onto the s4 after the update? Or do we assume that anyone not running an MDK bootloader is stuck in 4.4.x based or with the stock 5.0.1 TW?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Illogi.xbone:
I would say wait and see. I have been seeing other updates to 5.0 also updating the bootloader. Maybe a new exploit in there? I would wait to take the update until either A: It is confirmed that SS will/will not work or B: they find a new exploit to use.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcbeat257:
Currently, there is no new exploits for lollipop, and there is no rooting method to lollipop. If you REALLY want lollipop, I suggest you flash NC5 and then use software update to update all the way to lollipop.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mcbeat257:
I gotta say, they did update the recovery modules, and the boot modules too. The only downside is that they did not implement certain features that the galaxy s5 right now has, but overall probably the best update yet. Plus it is pretty smooth.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Legitsu:
touchwizz is still crap tho
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mkglitzman:
I can agree with that. I updated this morning. I'm disappointed that the s5 camera and the favorites in messenger didn't make it into the update, but I can't complain. It's still lollipop.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] BoulderGeek:
I presume that this update loses (unpaid) WiFi tether?

Currently on rooted NG6 with tether modules on VZW unlimited. Keeping tether is the only mandatory feature for me.

Wait?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mkglitzman:
There are guides out there to upgrade and keep root.i would advise using one of those.

If you upgrade to the OTA OC1 you will be on another locked boot loader with no way to downgrade back to Kitkat if you don't like it.

Currently as it stands, there's no root for OTA OC1. There's also no Safestrap that will work with it and no way to Odin back to nc5 once you do the OTA upgrade.

Hi everyone,

Hope you can help me solve this, cuz I'm way out of my knowledge..

My phone broke the lcd and was out of action for a few months.. After I finally got a replacement screen, the phone wasn't working and said IMEI unknown, I've tried to flash a few roms via recovery but nothing. So I just went crazy and flashed it via kies. It worked, the imei appeared but the phone was locked again..

Back to the shelf a few weeks until I could afford to pay for unlock.. When I picked it up, it was unknown IMEI again and the guy at the shop basically told me he couldn't help.

Was he right? I refuse to believe I can't recover the phone.. Can you please help?

Thanks!

Are you sure is that phone imei is not blocked, because provider may block if it is stolen reported.

I had the same problem after changing display IMEI unknown

But somehow it was saved from 'unknown IMEI' I don't know how.

restored efs from previous backup (twrp & philz recovery)

- no imei

I flashed stock

- no IMEI

asop

- no imei

tried different modems

again stock

- suddenly its worked

(some users reported flashing different modems worked for them)

[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mdkcheatz:
Reflashing your ROM should only be done as a last resort. You can hard brick your device if you don't do it right or use an incompatible ROM. I stress this with all Moto E surnia varients because not all ROMs are available yet. Trust me.

For force close issues, make sure you have a TWRP recovery installed. Boot into it.

Under Advanced, select Fix Permissions. Allow to fix, should take less than 20 seconds.

Reboot

Most of the time this will solve your problem.

Otherwise, you can always try to reinstall the system apps you think might have caused the issue.

If you're not rooted boot into stock recovery, wipe cache, and do a factory reset. Or you can try through the settings, but I don't know if that will work.

I just wanted to share this .

If u own a used s5 or just not sure about drain issues .

Consider a new batt.

I got two anker batteries and charger for 28$ and yielding way more batter time then on stock battery which is a yr old.. I went from 100%-96% drain just in deep sleep mode for 9 hrs

Over night off the charger

With 20 hrs left from 6 am onward.I believe it has to do with some of our batteries even if it is a used phone consider a new Battery and charge it 100% and let it drain to 5% to learn it's full span.

I would also buy no other brand then anker if you buy a 3rd party batt.
