Ever since I upgraded to 2.2 (rooted) i always get promted to install the verizon media manager crap whenever i plug my phone into my computer. Where can i find this file so i can delete it, so this annoying bloat does not ever happen again? Thank.
if you search, the answer has already been posted before. it's on here somewhere.

I have the correct drive installed but I dont want to go on rooting my phone until i take care of this.
please make it simple
You have to uninstall it from your computer. The phone's internal storage has the exe file, which you can pull to install it on your computer.

And I never did, so suffice to say its not on my computer?
it is stored on your phone under /etc/cdrom.iso you have to be rooted to remove it from your phone, there is another option, let me look it up

that doesnt delete htcsync, it just disables it from starting up when you connect to your pc via usb
Msl reader isnt working for me gives me a error. I put it on modem for both. have dev mode disabled. I run cdma workshop connect to port 2 hit read spc an get a error "Phone ask for SPC. SPC (6 digits) is required. Check "security" tab - "SPC" section."
I really need my MSL to fix my mms and Update my prl because i get a error everytime i try to.
Idk if this is info thats needed but i am rooted 2.2 rom
Am i supposed to enter a SPC before hand... lol or am i just missing something.
Edit: I also have the samsung drivers installed and am using the same cable i rooted with last night. The error i get with MSL reader is "ERROR: /dev/smd0 does not exist. This phone is not compatible."
I'm guessing you already tried this

EDIT: Easier Way to get MSL. Okay so you have to download connectbot from the Market
1. Open ConnectBot
2. Agree Next Next Yada Yada
3. Press SSH and select Local
4. type in whatever you want by local and press enter
5. ok once you see a black screen and to the left a cash sign, type in "getprop" without the quotes
6. You should see a lot of words, scroll up all the way at the top.
7. Near the middle of the screen until you see [ril.MSL]
8. It will be 6 digits and that's your MSL

Doubtful but not impossible
Try this then see if it works
excerpt from 4g signal mod
1. Dial ##3282#
2. It will open a menu, click WiMAX and enter MSL. Note: 4G radio must be on.
3. Go to extensions and Hold EntryRX and Write Extension
4. Change the Value from -89 to -110 (The Lower the weaker the signal can be for the phone to connect.)
5. Change EntryCINR to 0004
just get to step 2 and see of it accepts your MSL
Lol wow it did thanks guys!
I can't seem to copy and paste texts anymore on my S3. Here's what happens:
Long press on text I want to copy
Text automatically highlighted and I get the buttons up top
I pressed the copy button and the top menu closed
In another text field, I do a long press
Intead of the Paste popup button, I get a Clipboard popup button that doesn't do anything when I press it
Any idea how I can fix this?
Thanks in advance

Sometimes I have to press the copy button twice and make sure it said text copied.
Interesting. I just realized it doesn't say text copied anymore. I just found out that if I try to copy the content of an SMS message or a Whatsapp message, the program will crash.
Any other ideas?
Been broken for me too. Haven't been able to find a fix. On stock and not rooted.

Same here, crashes any app in which I try to copy/paste from. Actually crashes during the copy portion in any app.
Running stock, ICS, on Verizon, how is this not a bigger deal? I plan on posting a video of the issue later.

What app are you trying to do this from? Each may have their own options, but the stock email is one I'll use as an example.
- Long press text (as you mentioned)
- Select text, ensure you choose the clipboard icon, at this point I do get the message "copied to clipboard"
- Choose another app, or choose to create a new email, etc..... long press and you should get the "paste" and "clipboard" option.... that's what I get anyways.
I also tested on the stock browser and works fine. Did you install any MOD's, etc?
I've noticed the same thing on my SGS3 (AT&T) started couple of weeks ago maybe... I can only assume it happened due to an app being updated. I'm not able to copy from website to text. If I try and copy from text app (stock) it crashes... Wonder what could have caused this.

My biggest fustration of all time on Android is with copy and paste. Is this an application developer problem? I can't tell you how many times I've tried to copy and paste between apps or even the same app but to avail just fustration. Either the selection handles don't work properly or after the "copy" and an attempt to "paste" NOTHING!
Chrome has been busted for a while. Default browser still works for me.

Just noticed copy causes native Gmail app to crash -_- all of this worked just fine when I got the phone when it had first come out. This must be cause by a recent update.

Yes worked good until update. Copy function will cause that app to crash. Wtf

I'm also having this same problem and it only started recently. I have no idea what caused it and what update may have triggered this. Every time I try to copy anything in any program it crashes. It's so frustrating! Also run un-rooted phone with stock software. Maybe it's time to root?

Flashing a rom will fix the problem... But I'm holding out for stock jelly bean before I root/flash. Anyone have more info on this issue?!

Fix for ROOTED users...
"1. boot recovery (CWM) > advanced > wipe cache
2. reboot phone > Root Explorer > delete /data/clipbord/*
3. reboot recovery again > advanved > fix permissions
4. reboot phone > it's fine"
Found this on Phandroid. But haven't found a fix for non-root. There is also another thread on here somewhere about this issue(merge possibly?)
Here is also a link to the discussion on Phandroid.

OMG thank you soo much. I had this problem before and the only solution I found at this time was to backup everything with Titanium, than do a factory reset, and finaly restore everything. It worked but it was a real pain in the a**.
I'm so glad there is a 60 sec solution.
By the way I did it in a different order to be faster and it worked :
1. Delete everything in folder /data/clipboard/
2. Reboot recovery, wipe cash
3. Stay in recovery --> advance -->fix permission
4. Reboot and enjoy copy/paste again
Again thank you.
So the problem seems to be the clipboard gets full? Lol hope this gets fixed.

Ditto on having this issue. Glad there's a solution if rooted. Wish they would send an update to fix it for those not rooted. Factory reset is ridiculous. I'm not going to do that every 2 months, which is now long I've had the gs3 (obviously this will happen again if the root cause isn't fixed)
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 [AT&T GS3 Stock Rom] using xda-developers app
This is temporary - it will have to be done again when the cache fills up again.
Similarly there is a temporary solution for non-rooted phones - factory restore is supposed to provide the same solution, just a bit more time consuming with having to restore everything.
that's crazy .. does samsung expect us to do a hard reset every few months ?

thats weird.. before i rooted it i never had that problem at all.. are you rooted or what?
Got a few questions specifically regarding the new aokp JellyBean rom for the Epic, and I thought I'd post them here since the original thread got shut down:
1. Is there any way to get the "enter" button to not send messages in the SMS application?
2. Is there any way to prevent the "mount your USB storage!" popup from coming up every time the device is connected to a computer?
3. Back on the samsung based roms, I was able to to type ##debug## to get to a menu where I could force 1xrtt mode for extremely low signal situations. In the new rom, I found you can get to that same menu by typing in *#*#debug#*#*, but any screen prompting for the msl code is now impassable. I know my msl code, but it gives me a "modem error" no matter what I type and asks "modem exception occurs", to which the only option is "yes" (clicking it just closes the application).
Any way to get around this?
Thanks

1: press the function key before enter.
2: No idea.
3: Have you tried using voice search to access the menu? Also, you could buy ROM Control for this.

2. Turn on USB debugging in Settings - Developer Options. If you can't find it, go to Settings - About phone, tap Build number 7 times and return.

Sorry, I should've been more specific. I was actually aware of this, but I was hoping that there would be a way to change this functionality on the stock messaging application so that I don't have to hit the Fn key to get the enter button to do what it's supposed to do.

It's not that I can't access the menus, it's that some parts of the menus prompt for my MSL code before I can access them, and for some reason, typing in my MSL code (000000) doesn't do the trick anymore, it just gives me that "Modem Error" and lets me know that a "Modem exception occurs". My only choice in the dialog is "Yes", but that just exits the menu completely.

I actually do have USB debug enabled already and a widget to easily toggle it off for use with computers that don't have the driver installed. I see the popup upon USB connection with USB debug enabled or disabled.

I'm not sure if you're saying your MSL code is 000000, or if you were using zeros as placeholders. If you are saying that your MSL is 000000, that would be very unlikely. To get your correct MSL, use a Terminal Emulator of your choice and type "su" and press enter, then "getprop ril.MSL" press enter again and you should see your MSL. Also, you wouldn't happen to be using a NS4G modem, would you? I'm not too sure on ways to fix this, because it hasn't happened to me.

Good question - My MSL is, as a matter of fact 000000, (I even doublechecked with the terminal on the off chance that something changed it) because I changed it to that to make it easier to access in CDMA workshop, qpst, and qxdm back when I was working to clone my old phone's service so that I could continue using my sprint sero $30 unlimited data plan.
As for the modem, I am still using the stock Epic EL30 modem. Would this be causing the problem? And if you don't mind sharing, which rom and modem are you using? What happens when you dial *#*#DEBUG#*#* at the dialer?
Thanks

Like I said, I'm not sure what causes the modem exception error. I'm using Effsi's 0611 build of PACman ROM with didhiy's 0606 nitest, and the NS4G LF2 modem. And when I dial that, it prompts for the MSL, I put in my MSL and it goes to the debug menu with no problem.
