I tried to change my sim pin code but this isn't working, there is no input field or the keyboard doesn't appear.
I can not find the function to copy phone contacts to my sim memory, only the other way around is possible.
version is 3.2, dunno in 3.3?
some feedback on this please?
Greetings
re-flashing a rom always fixes problems if doing the correct formatting when flashing the rom e.g. wipe data / facotry reset > wipe cache partition > wipe dalvik cache > [OPTIONAL] Format System (located in Mounts & Storage)
i do that for every rom i install and seems to have no issues what so ever

Ok I understand that but in this case is it perhaps just because the rom isn't equipt with it, that the functions are simply missing because this rom is still in developement you know? Just wondering if others or missing these features too?
thanks

So, I've rooted and S-off'd now i want to flash a ROM - this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1143456
But one of the first things i have to do, is wipe data/factory reset. But i have the recovery-RA-desire-v2.0.0-CM.img recovery image, so when i want to wipe, i get the following options:
- Wipe ALL userdata
- Wipe only /data
- Wipe only /sd-ext
- Wipe only /sdcard/ .android_secure
- Wipe only /cache
- Wipe only Dalvik-cache
- Wipe only battery stats
- Wipe only rotate settings
So when the tutorial tells me to wipe data/factory reset, does it mean "Wipe ALL userdata" or "Wipe only /data"?
I would ask the question in the ROM's thread, but i do not have enough posts to post in the android development area

Wiping everything is the recommended procedure for most roms. Wiping only data, for example, leaves data on the sd-ext partition which might result in problems. Basically wipe all in an option which spares you the time to do manually all the wipes necessary to install a ROM.

If I were you I'd use fastboot to erase boot, system, userdata and cache.. yes the, boot & system files are technically overwritten when you install a new ROM, and everything else is "deleted" (if you choose to delete it from recovery), however it's a more "cleaner" install that way (as in use fastboot to erase boot & system), and most of the time ROMs appear to work better.
You can use several tools with fastboot.. you can use cmd, however commands are specific and it takes a while to learn them (there are a lot of guides, but it takes practise), and there are some software platforms. Personally, I prefer to use fastboot commander as it gives me the most features, it however requires java JDK and android SDK (possible you already have this so check before installing.. if you are going to install it in the first place)
Gotta love the helpful people in this community

Hello,
I would need help of someone. I have a Galaxy S3 Canadian version SHG-I747M, Android Version 4.0.4 Baseband version I747MVLLE8. I tried to put an update to remove SMS logs from the call logs. I used the .zip file in this post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1784804
I installed this .zip file and I just got logsprovider has stopped unexpectedly looping again and again. I used root explorer and I deleted Logproviders.odex under system/app. Now, I also get Unfortunately, Messaging has stopped again and again.
I tried to flash a stock Rogers ROM, but it doesn't fix anything. Is there anyone nice to help me to fix my problem ? That would be really much appreciated.
What I find really weird, it's that I flashed with odin the stock ROM found on samsung website, it worked, but I still have the same problem and my downloaded apps and contact were not deleted after flashing the new rom... This is weird...
Try:

When installing the new uppdate ViperX 3.3.0 - can I do a full wipe and install that or do I need the former versions first (3.2-3.2.4)?
I´ve had problems flashing numerous times but finally got it on the phone and then made the 2 other uppdates ota to 3.3.2 but when I´m in the venom tweaks and change the max cpu to 1300 and changes back to 1500 after a while and sometimes after reboots.
I checked the ticker "aply settings on boot". Sometimes the min cpu freq also changes by itselfes to 1300....
The "mount system r/w" ticker also never stays checked....
I´ve had problems flashing, it only worked when I didn´t do a full whipe on the 3.3.0 version.
Sometimes the flash crashed after 10-15% and sometimes when the flash was ok and finished I ended up on the white htc logo.
I did this:
1: Move the zip file to htc in my download folder.
2. using winrar, get the boot.img file - moved that to my Boot_Flash_Script folder.
3. Go to Bootloader
4. Connect htc one x to the pc - fastboot usb
5. In the Boot_Flash_Script folder - dubbelclick on the flash-boot-windows file.
The boot.img flashes ok and also the cache is cleared.
6. unplugg the htc and go into recovery.
7. Using Aroma Installer I wipe cache, wipe dalwik cache and (maybe this is wrong) wipe System.
8. Then I click Install - find the zip file and excecute that.
9. Choose the stock kernel.
10. Full wipe.
11. flashes.
Then it sometimes crashed at 10-15% or flashes ok and when i hit "Reboot" it hangs itself on the white htc logo.....
This also happened when I tried to flash Icecoldjelly…
What am I doing wrong?
Noooob-thanks,
Nothing really, but download the latest full rom and check the MD5 number, flash the boot.img again and do a full wipe in recovery....
Wipe cache partition
Wipe data/factory reset
Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
Mounts & storage - format cache, data, system
Just to be sure and then install the Rom.zip. choose in the aroma for a full wipe again and continue....the question about the kernel you answered correct with NO.
the mhz option probably doesn't stick because there is only a stock kernel available, we don't have custom kernels yet ....
When wipeing and factory reset, does it erase anything on my sd-card?
It shouldn, right, since its on sdcard0...?
Even with a factory reset it shouldn't erase nothing?
Nope
Great.
Thanks!
So after flashing the boot.img, go into recovery and basicly wipe everything except external storage?!
Under "Mount" there are 4 tickers : Mount System, Mount Data, Unmount Cache, Unmount SD Card.
Unmount Cache & Unmount SD Card are checked....
What to do there?
And then just flash the Rom, Full wipe in Aroma, chose stock kernel and that should do it?!
I will quote myself ! Do NOT touch the mount stuff only touch the FORMAT stuff
And ofcourse you do NOT format sdcard !!!

Flashed the boot.img.
Wiped everything and did a factory reset then flashed the Rom and it worked.
Think the factory reset did the trick - the only thing I didn´t do before.
Thanks!!!!!!!!
Finally !!!
Hey everybody,
my problem is I flashed my first rom, MIUI
on One X, and my sim cannot be detected.
I tried three distibutions of MIUI 3.2.22 (chinese, uk and us),
all had the same issue.
It's not a hardware problem since I went back to stock rom and it's fine.
I already posted over ot MIUI forums, no one seems to have the same issue here or there (even on different roms)
since I searched before posting
Also, I followed the steps on the rooting tutorials and maybe I'm missing something..
Following the steps I had to gather info here and there e.g. at first I didn;t wipe data before flashing,
I saw this on a youtube vid..
I used CWM, install from zip.
Any help would be appreciated!
when coming from another rom you always need to perform a full wipe.
flashed the boot.img file with fastboot from the pc to the phone ?
in recovery do :
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
ADVANCED - wipe dalvik cache
MOUNTS & STORAGE - format cache, data, system
then install the MUI.zip file......
UPDATE: Worked perfectly!
Thanks a lot!
Cool!
will try that asap.
As I said I found only bits and bytes of such tutorials,
saw a hint somewhere about boot.img
and it's the first time i read about davlik cache, mounts and storage.
Thanks a lot!

No problem mate ! .....at least one case solved tonight :good:
CASE CLOSED !
I'm a new user can anyone tell me what is clean install n watch is procedure step by step
When you wipe System & Data it's called Clean Install this is necessary only when recommended by the developer or when flashing a different ROM.
1. Wipe Data/Factory Reset.
2. Go to Advanced -> Wipe Cache -> Wipe Dalvik Cache -> Wipe System -> Wipe Data.
Note:- Usually, in most cases, (i.e. Unless explicitly mentioned by the OP to do Clean Install because of major changes) while updating the same ROM we can simply flash the new version without wiping data it's called dirty flash.
