Market BUG
After I flash this firmware, I only able to download a few applications and then something weird happened. The Market start to download the program that I don't download and it say download unsuccessful and after that when I want to download other program, It stuck at starting download.
Only solution I found is factory reset
I originally used DXJF4 rom

if the solution is a factory reset and does not repeat, it is not a bug..

I noticed the phone gets very warn with these last few firmwares and the battery doesn't seem to last long with the JM2 firmware...

Really bad battery time, lost 40 percent at 8 h standby,

Hey Luke,
Been experiencing this problem ever since i got this phone, i've now tried every firmware update possible, no real fix as yet. I suspected it had something to do with the fact that i moved from a Nexus One with Froyo back to Eclair, but it sounds like you haven't done that.
Let me know if you find a fix... would love to be able to use my market the way it was intended.

Camera Geotaging stops working after some seconds.
Simply no position inside the EXIF Tag.
This issue is not new in this Firmware.
It exists longer time.

Thanks for the tip but it did not work. I'm having a problem where the imei number on the phone using *#06# is different to the case imei. I don't get how the numbers changed, but would desperately appreciate if someone could tell me how to match them up again?

I also have a problem with try to correct by changing .imei in /system /efs to match case imei but after reboot it keep changing back.

yes thanks that was the solution iforget todo factory reset
now works fine

I already had 2 crash/freeze with this kernel, it looks definitely unstable.
2 crashes situation :
1/ Pressing stop/play in xiialive lite
2/ listening audio in the standard mp3 player.
It crashed both time using the audio device.
I waited 1min the first time, hoping OOm killer or something else would kill a bad behaving process; without success.
The second time, i did not had time to loose :/
Very disapointing !

2 days after installing JS2 I'm still unable to connect to Market.
I'm unable to setup the Google login. Error is always no server available or something in that manner. Selecting clearing cache in recovery also did not help either.
Any suggestion is highly appreciated.
Thanks.

If you are not able to login to the market, then you will have a general problem..
Because you can even login if you dont have the market fix..
The market fix is just for secure apps...

Make KIES work on OSX Mountain Lion

Ok so this definitely worked for me (Finally!), so I wrote down the exact steps I took so you can try it on your machine. I haven't installed anything different on my iMac like drivers for Samsung or whatnot, but I did have a functioning KIES prior to Mountain Lion update. I uninstalled KIES since receiving Mountain Lion since it stopped working for me.
- Download the latest version of Samsung Kies: http://www.samsung.com/ca/support/usefulsoftware/KIES/JSP
- Open the downloaded DMG
- Once you have the .Kies20mac_S8173.pkg file window with the "Uninstall.app", right click on the KIES20mac_S8173.pkg and open using "The Unarchiver" and extract to a folder (I created a KIES folder on my desktop)
- From here you will see a file called "contents.pkg", Right click and select "Show Package Contents"
- Double click "Payload", it will create a file called "Payload-1", (at least it did for me)
- double click "Payload-1" and it will create another file called "Payload-1-1"(the payload part seems to have just duplicated so you may only need to do this once. But keep opening until you see the Applications Folder)
- In "Payload-1-1" you'll find the Applications folder, within the Applications folder you'll see the "Kies.app".
- Transfer the Kies.App to the Applications folder and then run Kies.
Should work fine and should also detect your Galaxy S 3.
HOWEVER
If you already have KIES installed but doesn't detect your phone or keeps prompting for update, try this:
1) Open the Kies menu and select Preferences
2) Click on the Update tab at the end
3) Uncheck the 'Notify when updates are available'
4) Close and restart Kies.
5) Now try connecting your device.
Or try uninstalling your current installation of KIES and try following the steps I listed above.
FYI, I am running a rooted stock ROM for Rogers with Kalagas Theme installed.
I hope this works for you too

i will give this a shot tomorrow! hoping it works, is there a way to make android file transfer work?

I got it installed, but Kies refuses to detect my phone. I reinstalled drivers and still nothing. It says "connecting" but never connects.

I had this at first but I tried a different USB port and it eventually detected my phone. I also tried toggling Camera >< MTP
I also found that using a JellyBean ROM it has a harder time detecting, I oft have to reconnect my USB a couple of times.

I thought this had been confirmed to only work if you ALREADY had Kies installed before upgrading to ML?
I tried and it doesn't work on a new install.

WHat I did was install the latest Kies for the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and it worked perfectly fine for me, no modifications needed.

Link?

Cool now we just need a tutorial on getting kies to run on windows!

New Kies came out yesterday. the non working version found and update. It installs on Mountain Lion and works.

There is a widely documented issue with this software and OS X Mountain Lion (10.8). It doesn't work. Thank goodness for dual booting windows 7 I suppose. It is pretty interesting that the latest Apple software prevents their biggest phone competitor from working properly.

My ML & Note 2 connects perfectly with each other. If you are having issues then try AirDroid from the Play store. There is no need to dual boot but to each their own.

Also, if you have Kies installed, un-install that & try connecting again via AFT.

Guys, AirDroid is great and all, but will not help much when it comes to transferring game and app files etc...

could not use Android File Transfer while Kies was installed. Simply dragging the app folder (Kies) to the trash won't fix the problem either. You have to download and run the Kies installer package but choose UNINSTALL when it starts and it will clean everything up for you. (I suppose there is an agent or two for Kies that is sitting out there.)
After that, AFT works great. (remember to bump up your device lock timeout though or it will disconnect on you if it locks during a transfer!

Thanks! I just googled kies, went to the official samsung/kies website, downloaded the program for my mac, opened up the download, ran the uninstall program, once done I plugged note 2 to my macbook pro via usb and viola! It worked perfectly without having to reinstall kies.

I found out that you cannot have Kies installed and android transfer installed on your Mac at the same time or else android transfer will not work.

Yes, you can't have KIES installed for it to work. It was posted in #5 that KIES must be uninstalled. Sometimes it helps to read the whole thread when there are only a few pages to read. =)

Has anyone else been getting RPC:S-5:AEC-0 errors?
I tired wiping both caches and data from app manager. nothing
Tried wiping cache from recovery. nothing.
tried wiping cache and factory restore. nothing.
After I rooted apps were installing fine but then it just stopped.
Any suggestions? Im gonna try to see if I can find an odin file of it stock.
EDIT: So I used a odin stock image. Still getting error. Any suggestions?
Do tmobile employees check to see if it has been flashed?
Gonna try to go back to store and see if can get it replaced with another. But cant till later. This sucks....
FIX looks like it was on googles servers. Back to normal but this is on stock after I odin, Ill wait on the root to see if others are still getting problems.

I was getting the above error too even after performing a device reset. I reflashed the root a second time and it is working. The only difference is I enabled USB debugging in the Developer options the second time, not sure if that really made a difference though.

Ah wow, I was getting these errors too. Thought it was unrelated and a server side issue (still might be, account specific?)
I'm writing this without reading the suggestions above but, what eventually worked for me (after removing accounts, factory reset, clearing play store data & play framework whether necessary or not)..
Went to Google dashboard (all on PC), made sure device was there, went to play.google.com (computer)-- it errored and froze, logged out, back in, worked eventually, viewed my installed apps (took like 5 minutes to load), started installing apps from there. Once that was working, it worked on my device.
The curious part was, initially, when I'd search for ANY app on play.google.com, it would show no results. Opening in incognito (not signed in), it worked fine.

Yes, had the same problem on my SM-N900T, not on either of the other two [N900/A], it took creating a new google account and also clearing the cache for google services framework, google play and uninstalling the play store update. I had to do this a couple of times, seemed to work better for me without a reboot, but this is the right path for fixing this problem.
Hope this helps,
Bob

it voids your samsung warranty to be exact. if you take it back to tmobile with tmobile warranty, they will still fix/replace hardware issues.

About to root for the simple fact I can not stand the headphones auto adjusting. I need it louder then normal and tired of playing music at maxed settings just to hear music and then a few songs later it acts like its supposed to. (work in a factory)
Anywho: Does this method still give you the option of having auto updates from Tmobile for bug fixes and stuff or do we need to manually keep an eye open for updates?

[REQ] LG PC Suite 5.3.18 Setup

Hello,
have anyone the Setup for the LG PC Suite 5.3.1820140626 ??
I can´t download it, everytime the Server connection fails...
hope anyone can help me...thx in advance

Did you by any chance use any of the old Flashtool hacks? if so they would have changed your hosts files to block PC Suite from updating itself.

I use purpledrake for rooting.
But my Host File is untouched. (Win8 original)

I'm on my second attempt right now, The first one failed for some unknown reason. I'll let you know if it's a success this time 'round.

Hey, I had SO MANY problems updating the PC suite to that version... I was on a windows 8.1 laptop and hadn't done anything regarding rooting or flashing .kdz files on that laptop and still got the message that the update couldn't be verified with the server. I'm using Bitdefender Internet Security on my laptop, so I tried turning it off and it still didn't work. So I finally decided to uninstall it, after that, I tried to do the update again and it worked I think that the uninstalling wasn't necesary, I probably had to change something in the firewall settings. So, you should check if you are using a similar program that is causing an issue.
