[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
First off, thank you for the reply audit!

Now I have officially rooted my phone using CF-Autoroot and have installed TWRP. I have also confirmed that the bootloader is at least 4.3 because it does show the warranty bit.

Which of the stock roms are compatible with this bootloader?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Do you want to stay on a stock ROM? If not, you could flash a custom ROM such as cm12.1 using TWRP. Once you have flashed a custom ROM, you can look under settings to determine the baseband on the phone which is another clue as to which bootloader is on your phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
Just to be clear, cm12.1 is the cyanogenMod nightly?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Yup. If you flash it, your baseband may be unknown which tells me you are probably not running a 4.4.2 bootloader and modem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
I'll try it out and see if I can get past the language screen this time.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
Got the latest Cyanogenmod Zip file onto my phone. Tried flashing it through TWRP with the install option but it failed.

Log reads that no MDS file was found, detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/platform msm_sdcc.1/byname system. Can't install this package on top of incompatible data.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
CM12.1 won't have an md5 file. You're trying to install cm12.1 for the d2att or d2lte? You're running the latest TWRP which I believe is 2.8.7.0? or 2.8.7.1?

I'm pretty sure that CM de-unified the variants for CM 12.

From: https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/D2lte_Info

I think this was just to make searching a bit harder/ more complicated.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
For d2att and running 2.8.7.0 for TWRP.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
You should be good then.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
The file should be left unzipped/unrared when using it right? I'm using it as such but it keeps returning the same error message saying that it won't install it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Yes, leave it zipped. What is the TWRP error message?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
The error log:

detected filesystem ext4 for /dev/block/platform msm_sdcc.1/byname system.

Can't install this package on top of incompatible data.

Please try another package or run a factory reset

Error flashing zip '/sdcard/Download/cm-12.120150913-NIGHTLY-D2att.zip
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Weird, did you do a full wipe before trying to install?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
Can't believe it was that simple. I thought I had already made the wipe when I did it with the original recovery but making a second wipe through TWRP actually helped make it happen. I finally got through and have full access to my phone.

Unfortunately, the cell service doesn't seem to work but I'm guessing that I need to do more for the set up?

Edit: Not recognizing the sim card for some reason
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Sounds like you need to update the bootloader and modem to the older KK version which I think is ne4.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
Sorry for the late reply I've been busy the past week. I'm guessing the modem won't work without the proper bootloader? I've tried flashing the latest and original modem from the Modem list (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1831898). While they installed successfully I still don't get a signal.

I was worried which bootloader to take because it may lead to bricking. Which one are you referring to and are they in the Bootloader updates topic here? (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2321310)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
Your phone is the i747, not the i747m so I recommend you look here: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3-att/general/rooted-ucufnj1-stock-rom-t2985006

First, determine which bootloader is on your phone and proceed accordingly. If you're not sure how to proceed, post the phone's bootloader version here.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
How do you check for the bootloader version?

Info off the "About phone" only lists Android (5.1.1), Baseband (Unknown), and Kernel (3.4.108 cyanogenmod) version.

Hallelujah! My phone has returned from the dead (both service and lte coverage)! Major thanks to audit and Mrrocketdog for the assist.

I still have no real clue as to what started the problem regarding the Settings issue. I'm guessing some major issues occurred with the OS due to a system update that went wrong because it affected it so deeply that it stayed even after the factory reset.

Anyone want to take a guess?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tautkusm:
yes, and if you were following my thread, i had the exact same problem as you did, except i tried to have it fixed by Samsung tech support. That was a mistake! They took my wife's phone from a mostly working phone .... through factory resets, etc. they turned it into a brick.... and to add insult to injury, they told me my phone was out of warrantee and would have send it in to them.... and they were wanting to charge me!

It happened that after an update to her phone in Nov 2014, that her settings app would not load any more... gave a Settings stop working error. Then after backing up and going through hellish hours with tech support, after the factory reset, it would get stuck on selecting the language during the reboot.... and guess where it stopped..... gave the same settings has stopped error!

If it were not for the people on this forum her phone would still be a brick. . . much thanks to everyone! She is now loving the cm12 mod along with the gapps. Her phone is now louder and crisper sounding..... and she doesn't have to wade through pages of bloatware.

So definitely, there are some phones that have been affected by the update and we are the scapegoats..... not their fault.... they wont admit fault.

Which update was it that messed up your Settings?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dj_hdog:
Your situation and your response was almost identical mine. I also tried to get help from Samsung support, even though my warranty was expired. I was initially willing to pay for the cost if it was cheaper than buying a new phone but they told me it was a flashing problem and they would take care of it free of charge.

I shipped it to their repair center in Plano, Texas and about ten days later they shipped it back to me with no fixes. They cited "water damage" and that it was not "economically feasible" to fix it, even though the issue was a flashing problem.

In short, don't go to Samsung support for help if your warranty expired.

Regarding the updates, I'm taking a guess that it was a recent software update was the cause (My phone started acting up around late August). I don't think any apps or games that I have downloaded would have such significant permissions to access important parts of my phone. When I turned my phone on in safe mode or after I made that factory reset that Settings problem persisted. So I'm concluding that an official update to the phone's software was the cause.

I'll be editing my first post to provide the steps I took to resolve my issue, for future reference to any other people who may encounter the same problem.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dawgdoc:
IIRC the latest round of the "Settings have stopped working" problems came with the NJ2 update for some with the i747. Likewise, November may have been about the time NJ1 was released as an update. enewman17 opened his NE4 to NJ1 update thread on Nov 15, so that fits.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] tautkusm:
The Samsung Tech Support Nightmare

How much better it would be if Samsung took responsibility for their failures rather than trying to pass the buck over to the customer!!! You say "In short, don't go to Samsung support", now i say "In short don't buy Samsung products"!!!

Now come up with some Samsung product quotes and spread them:

1. "I thought i was buying a phone, but they handed me a brick instead"

2. "Samsung.... give me a BRICK!"

3. "After another Samsung update..... I commited Cyangenocide!"

Next start a new thread: "Famous Samsung Quotable Quotes" :rolleyes:

[HTC Desire 610] porozex:
No, I can't install it. Mine was around 38mb

edit: ok i found a solution, if you have a backup of your rom (i got it after got installed twp for first time) open it with winzip or 7zip then navigate to sytem>bin>bebuggerd and copy it to the phone. then with a filemanager with root privileges replace the current one and give proper permissions. thats it :D

[Sony Tablet S] lipico:
Hello,

My tablet S shuts down for no reason. I turn it on, and after a while (the time is always different) it shuts down. Does not reboot. Just shuts down.

Sometimes it shuts down right on the unlock screen, sometimes it let's me work with it for around one minute / one minute and a half - it depends.

The strange thing is that if I delete some apps, after it shuts down and I turn it on again, the apps that I deleted are there again. I tried to reset to factory but with no sucess.

Does anyone have a similar problem, or knows why this happens. Sony did not know how to repair it, neither 3rd party houses. One of them said it was the graphic driver, but i found that strange. Could ir be?

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xalies:
Hi,

I got a tab 4 10.1 but I no longer have the original charger that came with it and I thought it should be fine to charge with my old 1020 charger. The Nokia's charger doesn't seem to put any power into it and when the tab is off it says that it is charging but stays at the same %

however I have my turbo charger from my N6. I know it isn't charging at turbo but it is still charging the tablet. the Nokia 1020 charge works fine with my N6 and I have tried swaping cables. so does the original charger have different specs to a normal phone charger?
[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beut:
The charger should have 5 Volts, 2 Amperes output. You can read the output small print on any charger. Your phone's charger probably only has an output of 5 V, 1 Amp or even lower than 1 Amp. Be aware that using USB cable for 1 Amp charger, the output to your tablet is only under 1 Amp even with a 2 Amp charger.

So the rule : always use the correct charger and USB cable, otherwise your tablet takes a long time to get full charge.

[LG G Flex 2] milanmania2004:
Hi, found this 'activity' LG HOME HIDDEN MENU while figure out how to enable 'theme' in G Flex2. By enable/disable some settings in the menu, accidentally also found a way to enable landscape mode in home screen.

What you need:

App: securesettings to create widget link to 'activity' (there may other app able to achieve same function).

Root? I'm rooted so not sure non rooted is it working.

1. Add a widget from home screen, select securesettings.

2. Under securesettings, select Action > Launch Activity> Select app 'Home'> select activity called [HOME].DEBUG.LGHOMEHiddenMenuACTIVITY.

3. Launch the widget created. Here is where you can play around many settings for the LG Home.

To enable theme:

search for theme> enable FEATURE_USE_THEME > save Home > save Workplace.

Escape and look for theme in display setting. Bingo!

To enable home screen landscape mode:

Search for 'portrait' > uncheck the 2 items FEATURE_DEFAULT_PORTRAITVIEWONLY and FEATURE_USE_PORTRAIT_ONLY > save Home > save Workplace.

Escape and now home screen redraw in landscape mode.

Enjoy!
