Roaming data worked just fine in Japan (Softbank and Docomo), but I dont have roaming data in the Philippines. Im currently in Metro Manila, connected to Smart, have a strong cell signal, but no data (! next to the bars). My sister has a LG G3 and she has data just fine. Is there a setting I need to change?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperBaka:
Hi, I really am a SuperBaka (a Super idiot :crying: )

I tried to install Gapps to my new Asus Zenphone 5 (A500KL) by this method :

Which is:

1.Root your phone

2.Install Root Explorer

3.Unzip Gapps and Copy SYSTEM Folder to Internal memory

4.With Root Explorer paste SYSTEM Folder over original SYSTEM folder

5.Reboot

I followed each step, until the 4. But unfortunately, instead of copying, I erased accidently my original System folder by coping into Internal memory.

After that, all the apps closed and since that when i turn ON my phone, I only can see the Asus logo...

Please help me to reinstall Android, I have this phone since only 2 days... I really don't know what to do and i panic beacause i don't have any warranty (bought on To2c.com)

PS: Sorry for my english, i am french (tell me if you didnt understand something)

PS2: It was on Android 4.4.2 Kit kat version

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] BrikHaus:
Hi Guys,

Hope someone a bit more clued up than myself can clarify my questions or guide me..

I've done some searching, but am not 100% confident.

So, I have a I9305 running a Boeffla Kernel 5.2. If I recall correctly, I upgraded from 4.1.2 to 4.3, but

kept my old bootloader. So I am rooted and have TWRP on this 4.3 based CFW. No KNOX anywhere.

(Did all this about 12 months ago or more, and have had some significant life events in the last year,

so have been completely out of the scene.. :( )

Anyway, I was considering upgrading to 4.4.4 (stock)

Can anyone tell me if I can do this and remain Knox free and have a custom recovery such as TWRP.

(If so can you point me to a working guide?)

Thanks Heaps in Advance,

BrikHaus
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] woodman:
Hi,

you have 3 options:

- Option #1: Stay with your old 4.1.2 firmware base with OLD bootloader and you can flash which custom KitKat ROM you want (N4 Elite ROM, TGP, AMCHA KK, etc.). If your favorite ROM is NOT compatible with TWRP, you will have to flash PHILZ recovery 6.48.4 instead and then flash the ROM. If the custom ROM is compatible with TWRP, you will only have to flash the ROM.

When you will flash the ROM, don't forget to choose a KK modem (XXUFNI3, XXUFNJ1 or XXUFOA1 depending on the ROM base) to have a working baseband and also, don't forget to choose a compatible Kernel with OLD bootloader (AGNi, HBO kernel or Dlite). Note : Stock kernel is not 100% compatible with OLD bootloader : WIFI will not work.

- Option #2: Upgrade to latest official 4.4.4 stock (I9305XXUFOC1) for i9305 with ODIN : this way, you will have new 4.4.4 KNOX bootloader and you will not have custom recovery anymore. If you want to stay like this, you will be 100% stock and 100% up-to-date from Sammy.

- Option #3: Follow the option #2 and then root your phone and flash custom recovery. You could finally stay like this or flash a custom ROM. If you choose to flash a custom ROM, one good thing is that you will be able to use stock kernel (100% working including WIFI) if available with this ROM.

You can follow that guide from [MENTION=5784234]MaHo_66[/MENTION] : http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/development-i9305/recovery-i9305-cwm-philz-twrp-versions-t2694249

Reminder: To go VERY clean wipe and install a custom firmware :

1. Backup all your data

2. Full wipe (data, cache and dalvik) in recovery including internal sdcard (internal sdcard format option in mounts and storage settings)

3. Flash a i9305 official firmware (4.1.2, 4.3 or 4.4.4) via ODIN. IMPORTANT : If you don't want KNOX BL because of warranty purpose, don't flash official 4.3 or 4.4.4 via ODIN.

4. Root

5. Flash custom recovery : (Philz for instance)

6. Install custom ROM

Steps 4 and 5 can be permuted.

PS: Off topic : [MENTION=5784234]MaHo_66[/MENTION], you're now a RC, well done !

Thank you VERY MUCH [MENTION=4752536]FLooDW[/MENTION]! Wish I could give you 10x Thanks!

Just the answer I was after. I wasn't sure if it was even possible to have a custom recovery on KNOX 4.4.4 bootloader.

I dropped out of the scene just as KNOX raised its ugly head...

I'm not worried about the warranty at all. Phone is two years old and well out of warranty period.

I'll go Option #3, sounds like just what I was after.

Thanks again!

[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] murasamemusic:
Weeks ago I was on their website and saw, that it is already available for a long time. Buddy who has a Z3 Tablet mentioned last month he got his update, but my Tablet and the PC Companion software tell me everytime that my Tablet is up to date!

Last time I thought I had a great idea, I went for the kinda repair-y option you can choose in PC Companion, where the software downloads the current Android system, wipes your device and installs the newest Android. Of course I backed up my apps before that with PC Companion.

What was the result?!

I still got Build 230.1.A4.30

And thanks to that experiment I had a lot of things to reconfigure, that I configured perfectly to my needs over the months. If my Tablet was rooted, I would have just used TitaniumBackup or the likes and not trusted the PC Companion...

What gives?!? Do I now only have the option to finally root my Tablet and use only custom roms? And that after not even a year of owning it?!

Have a look at my screenshot, please:

Updates are usually released according to regional areas.

You need to wait until Sony uploads the latest firmware and make available for you in your region.

There can be difference of a month or two between other phones update and yours.

The spots on your screen can be dead pixels OR it can be dust particles. Using AnTuTu benchmark take a screen test and check for dead pixels. Play store link is below;

Faulty pixels never show in screenshots, for obvious reasons.

I think they are stuck pixels. I have a bicycle GPS and after a drop, a few pixels on the screen always stayed the same color. Funny enough when I gave the GPS a good "spanking", the pixels went back to normal. :p

[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] jt_armstrong:
I am the not so proud owner of a Wizard but have the opportunity of moving to a Wing. I love my wizard with the exception of the radio performance, poor reception, missed calls and vanishing text messages which are all part of the deal. So those of you who have a Wing, is the radio any good?
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] rpodos:
Radio is slightly better than the MDA, IMO. BT radio is definitely better. WM6 is sweet, and stable.... speed and battery are fine overclocked at 247. The BT stack is waaaay better for A2DP.

The big problem is program memory... something around 15MB before plug-ins, and with a medium-bad leak. No one has real good answers yet, and we are all DESPARATELY waiting for custom ROMS! In the meantime, I've recommended using Oxios to clear memory as often as possible, and soft resets at least once a day.

It's really a great device, except for the memory problem. If you do get one, make sure to check at HoFo as to the best purchase deal.

-Richard
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] falconeyez:
Well, the reason why you're missing so many calls is because your Radio is 2.61. That for whatever reason, that "improved" radio sucks in Southern California. If I remember correctly, that was a German radio. The Wing has an upgraded radio, but I haven't tried it in areas I know are sketchy. But all in all, except for the huge loss of RAM due to God only knows (I don't run My Favs) it seems to be a pretty stable phone, but I've only had it for less than a week.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] jt_armstrong:
Thanks falconeyez, I have actually been running 2.69 for the past few days but it is as bad or worse than 2.61. I have jsut downloaded 2.40 from the FTP to try that but I have just about given up hope of any radio rom working in the Wizard. If the Wing has a suitable replacement then I will make the change as the rest of the phone appears to be the same as a Wizard
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] falconeyez:
No problem, that's what the boards are for. When I was using the wizard I kept my radio at 2.25 (2.26?) and that consistently gave me the best results.
[Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading] WarezAppz:
/agree 100% with everything said here.

As a result I've been playing with customizing my own rom (removing programs adding in - etc) and what I've come up with is a cross between the Touch and the Iphone - I use the iLock and the iContacts, and all of the other themes and apps from the Touch as posted in the Touch for Wizard thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=311225)

Now my problem is: I want to remove the annoying taskbar that holds the battery status (OEM) and etc on the bottom because I do not need it anymore. Anyone have any ideas on how to do this?

I have a Sprint Galaxy Note 2 that I recently updated through Kies. It's been out of service for over a year that is the reason I went through Kies. Before updating I was on 4.1, and rooted. I say this because I know how to get into Odin, and this is my problem. After updating from 4.1 to 4.4.2(NK2) I can no longer get into Odin. My volume up/down, power button, and home button all work when the device if fully booted. I can get into recovery, and my power button, and the volume up/down keys work in recovery. Do I have a locked bootloader? If I do how to fix? If I don't how can I get into Odin? I have done a factory wipe through the settings, and once through recovery, but it didn't fix me getting into Odin. Please help. Thanks.
