Develop Bugs

[Q] S-OFF ?

So I just rooted and I am wondering if this is considered S-OFF? I am new to Samsung phones. I have had all HTC in the past. Also, how do I go about checking if I do indeed have S-OFF?
Thanks

Not to be rude (the video does that for us already), but I don't think this [Q] thread should've been created in the dev section. [READ] the forum rules.

Cm10 stable on Sprint s3 signal problems!

I installed it on my brothers sprint version. Ever since he constantly has to reboot his phone for signal to retrieve 3g...at least 4 times a day. Any ideas?????

All these smart ass answers. Smh. n00bz. Anyway bro. Go to the CM10 thread or try the CM10 thread in Q&A.

I hope you were not directing any vs towards me?

wally3614 said:
God man, so annoying having smart asses like you jumping in to start something. Just stay out my question if you have nothing to offer, that is the entire point of asking for help. I have searched old posts and found a couple of people asking about signal issues, no real answer, so unless YOU r new to xda like I kinda am and do not notice thousands of posts in which sometimes it may not be as easy to find an answer someone else may have a lead on, just simply stop smiling at yourself about a chance to be a wanna be intellect.

what hes trying to tell you is to ask that question in the cm10 thread located in this same section or ask it in in the Q&A section.
Threads started in this area are for devs to post ROM or Kernel info/download type stuff. There is your answer in short.

Please read forum rules before posting
Development is for developers only to post release threads

Yeah if what I said doesn't work and you have tons of time to sift through it all and try and find it. Like I just did, search apn cm10 sprint and it is a spider web. Hopefully someone sees this that doesn't know to check it that is having the problem, and maybe this will work for them. If not then hey, gotta do...

Here's the link to the file. The flashable link went 404 for some reason but this is the same file that is flashed. Just follow instructions.

From what I've been told we they are really close, but again they aren't going to put anything out that doesn't work fully so as for a real time frame, when everything works and they feel it's ready for mainstream consumption

Why don't you look in the dev forums. That's where it'll be posted

I'm not bugging the devs...I was asking the community in general? Its just I came from the Nexus S which had well over 100 roms to the Optimus which only has 2. So I have just been confused why there aren't a few more for this device which is much better than my nexus. Im not even asking for ETA's mainly just if anyone knew about more roms being made. I probably should have worded it more clearly.

jbrooks58. We don't mean to be harsh. You came from a nexus, a device that have open source to a device that is branded by LG running LG software. It takes time to develop for getting around minor hurtles may take weeks unlike on a nexus our dev community works hard and we now have a flashable JB zip. Things are in the works but there are a few things that still need fixed.

I see both sides of this coin, since i kinda just went through the same thing. I understand that he was just asking a question, but on the other hand there are probably over 10 discussions with the answer he is looking for.
But on the other hand, you are newer than me even, so welcome to the community, try to read and search before asking questions, and try not to double post either, just edit your last post if no one has replied.

The name calling is uncalled for, especially when you're taking advantage of the work that these people are putting in. This community has enough negativity as it is, and we certainly don't need any more.
Egos aside we're all on the same team here. Either appreciate the work or give constructive advice/suggestions. Enough of the insulting.

Also, alot of the reason we only have 2 roms was because we were stuck on ICS. Not many people want to develop on an older OS, expecially when we knew there was an update right around the corner. So it was the waiting game. Now that JB has been released, and the source code has been dropped, this place will start lighting up. This is one of the best phones out right now, and it will start getting attention. So for now, research, read, contribute what you can, and enjoy the ride.

In all honesty none of those thread touch on how close we are to being AOSP, so his question is relevant. In every thread you get the same answer, either "we have already answered that question", "when it is fully ready to go", "were still testing things so it's going to be a few more weeks". I want to make it clear that I'm not complaining, And am very happy with what you guys are doing, but if we had a little better information about what is going on and what the problems are maybe people would stop posting so much.

If you want to know anything about ROM's/AOSP, go to the IRC. They constantly are talking about it on there.

Recent AOKP Build?

Take a look in the Development section

The KF is not an OG nor is it from the CPT.
There is no current AOKP. You can use the pure AOSP r1 build, Official CM10.1 nightly, cm10.1 w/ SGT7, or any of the other roms in dev section.
Look at my signature for the most recent builds.

Hints why I said "making sure I didn't miss anything." It could be possible that it is only posted on another forum besides XDA since Paacman for the Razr HD is only available officially at Droid-Hive but yet you can find roms on DroidRazr that you cant find here, and vice versa.

Lol try following your advice. Do you realize how many threads aokp is mentioned in just in the dev section? I did search..again...hints the words did I overlook something. I couldn't have over looked it if I didn't look/search in the first place.
Now I see what people mean on other forums when they say "this isn't xda." Lol
Just because I don't post much here doesn't mean I don't know how forums work or contribute elsewhere.

Congrats, I guess you used the other 30 seconds to come back and troll. Thanks for proving my points though.

@Xplorer4x4,
With this kind of attitude, you will get no where near help you need in XDA, not only in this sub-forum but XDA in general.
There is no rule forcing you not to post but you MUST find the answer on your own, no one here will help you look for it if you don't even do a little homework yourself.
How many AOKP THREAD in the Development section? Find your own answer. READ.
For your info, trolling like this won't get you far in life either so change your attitude if you can. It will help you.

There is an old saying, you have to give respect to get respect. I came in, asked a simple question to make sure I did not over look something when I SEARCHED the dev forum, Instead I get a response like "Take a look in the Development section " I mentioned this in my op, all be it discreetly. Then I get a smart ass answer like "The KF is not an OG nor is it from the CPT." Perhaps this was intentended to be humorous but text on a screen often has a way of being misinterpreted. Had a "lol" a "" or something of that degree ben included, maybe I would have picked up on the attempt at humor. Since I fail to see the humor, you tell me, who got attitude first? Then asf58967 keeps coming back to the thread to provide more derogative comments. I subscribed to the thread to get updates. What's his excuse?

Like I said, many times before, I asked if I overlooked anything..and like I said before, in order to over look something, I have to have searched or browsed the forum. If you READ you will understand I did my home work and look at the usefulness of the responses minus the later part of asf58967 first post which started with a smart ass answer.

lol trolling? I actually had a reason to keep coming back to the thread. You might want to take the rose colored glasses off and read the thread again. Furthermore, I been a member here for 3 years and have under 80 posts. I would say I don't require much help.
I do development outside of android, so I understand fully the thought process behind search first, ask second. It drive me up a frigin wall, and is part of the reason I abandoned my former projects.You know why I search first, a number of reasons but the most important answer is that searching will often get you an instant answer rather then sitting on your ass waiting what could be hours for some one to reply.

Not sure if you are serious or sarcastic, but as far as I can tell...no. Which surprises me. From my understanding of android development, Hascode has all the drivers and such working so it shouldn't be hard to port that to the AOKP base. I can understand if the original dev did not have time to maintain it but I am surprised no one else has picked it up.

Listen man, I am sorry you have been so offended. Yes the OG from CPT was a joke. I live in los Angeles near the CPT. The bottom Line is people here participate ALOT and the spirit of xda is based on finding knowledge before posting a thread - that way all new threads end up useful, as opposed to there being 5000 threads of "how do I root my Kindle" or "is there an AOSP ROM".

Not being able to post is a good time to use the search button. Wont it be awesome to say "I found the answer myself!" ?
A tip : I find the xda app search to k8nd of suck (sorry guys its true) so either use "web view" or what I do isvuse google and put xda as a constant key word.
The thing is, a lot of times everything is found in your devices q&a section. And you dont need to havev10 posts for that.
Also most device forums tell you "all q&a go in the q&a sub forum" as part of the devices forums rules.
Are you like me and love to help ?
(hey dont roll your eyes me! )
Why not hang out in q&a for a bit?
You can help other and ask all your questions!
Great way to build up your post count!

If you have problems and you need the help of others to solve them then more likely than not your question belongs in the Q&A forum for your device. If you want to answer questions then you can do that in the Q&A as well. Either way, you'll either not need 10 posts because you have nothing to post in a dev thread or you'll easily be able to manage 10 posts because you are a dev and find it easy to answer questions.

Be patient...make the posts on home/forum/general,android,Q&A.....you can't on any device on development forum

That is a good point it seems like every where I try to post is not aloud I don't wanna be intrusive on threads just need some help

You wont find any help posting questions in the development threads anyway. All you will get is a bunch of people telling to post in the Q&A section.
