don't even need to wait for it to install successfully. Sometimes a "fail" is actually a success, so if you're having problems of it flashing successfully then you should check your app drawer.. its probably in there already.

yep probably my 4th time lol. Since t-mobile had their "sale" and i believe prices are dropping for the gs2 (target/walmart) expect a lot of new users with derp questions.. I do hope it dies down.
I should probably create a template so i can just c/p everything over and over.
OH WAIT that's what stickies are for.

Global Mode prompt issue! Help please

Alright,
I'll yet and reach out one more time.
I don't know wtf happened to my phone in the last 24 hours but I am getting a prompt to switch to global mode about every thirty seconds when I'm not in cell reception range.
This sucks because I live in a no reception area, I'm getting prompted 100 times an hour!
This never happened before yesterday when I flashed CM 10.1
I completely odin back to stock and re provisioned my device.. After flashing back I'm still getting these annoying prompts to enable global mode.
Can someone please tell me how to completely disable global mode?
What I'll never understand is I have been running the K3 ota for over a week and this only started yesterday.
Please help!
Thank you xda community!

I'm having the same exact issue, it just started. I don't know what's going on and I'm using Mean Lean Jellybean build 4, tomorrow I'm going to flash Build 5 but I've been using 4 for weeks. I also live in a bad service area. Hopefully someone can help, it nearly makes the phone unusable at home.

I did a dirty flash of Build 5 over Build 4 and it seems to have stopped. Maybe try a different ROM? I'll do some more testing and update this is if in fact the issue starts again.

You know you guys are in the sprint section, not the Verizon section, and you posted in accessories, not q & a. You might want to get this thread moved by a mod.

I see this thread in the Verizon S3 section. Granted it is in the Accessories part. But I've never went into the Sprint section, so they must have the forums combined.
Sent from my Verizon Galaxy S III using xda-premium

Interesting, maybe it is combined. It still should be moved to q & a, would probably get more answers there.

What is "global mode" ?
It asks you to switch to it. What happens when you do?

Yea, I've never seen global mode on my sprint s3.

Global Mode is under more settings in the networks section..
This thing is driving me nuts! Sorry about the accessories post. Im going to repost
In q and a.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium

Not on a Sprint phone, our model isn't a world phone. You shouldn't need to repost, you can pm a mod and they will move it for you.

THIS THREAD HAS BEEN MOVED AND CONTINUED HERE.

[Q&A][DISCUSSION] Unified Sense 5 ROM Q&A and Discussion

Please keep all non-development posts and questions regarding the Sense 5 ROM in this thread.
The rules are simple:
No flaming
Posting bugs:
If you are posting a bug POST IN THE DEV THEAD (graphical issues only)
Pull a logcat. If the bug could be kernel related, pull a logcat AND dmesg. I will not be covering how to pull either of these.
When should I post in the DEV thread?
If you are...
...posting some patch for the current ROM.
...posting some very insightful information about how to potentially fix a bug/issue.
...discussing bugs or issues at a technical level.
You can find the dev thread here.

Quick Question
When you said wipe everything does that include internal storage also?

Everything on the phone....you can skip it, but the OS also stores data on internal storage, so I would recommend it.
Everything else though, system, dalvik, cache, data

Data my internal storage. I got stuck at the boot ani and you said that it was just deodexing the system so I let it sit for 10mins and it didn't boot.

So guys, confirmation that is booting for everyone else and I'm not crazy?

Boring? Yes very boring. , I'm happy you got it booting I might try it out when you guys finish this just to see why you like it so much. Good luck, you have plenty of awesome people here that I am sure will help.

It was him, but he had replaced other files too.

so I can just download from this thread, rather than the "ported" one in the VZW forums, since I'd rather follow the main guy behind this genius-ness

I am fairly sure that that port was just the same ROM reuploaded to dropbox. So I do not know what it is that he added or removed or whatever, but yes, you can flash the ROM from my dev-host as if you had a Sprint S3

[Q] Note 8 at times unresponsive

Hi all, I have the WIFI only Galaxy Note 8. After the last firmware update to 4.1.2, I am having problems with my tablet becoming unresponsive, 2-3 times a minute.. I have done a clean factory resent, twice, and the problem persists. After the resent, I don't add any software, except what is included in the reset. So, it appears to be a hardware issue and not a software issue; but, I"m not for sure.
Thanks, Jim

I'm not entirely sure why this happens, I wonder if perhaps it's something with the angle and the pen or otherwise.
When having the "Cloud" part of settings linked to my Dropbox account, on earlier firmware it would happen frequently (like every few minutes) and report that cloudagent had crashed. Clearing data and not linked my Dropbox to it solved it. Doesn't happen too often on the most recent firmware though.

Thanks for your quick reply. I have unlinked Dropbox and it seems to have corrected the problem. I'll reactivate Dropbox later and see if the problem recurs.
Regards, Jim

Go to Android development in this forum. The firmwares are for us n5110 note 8.0. I don't know What fuki is. Do not Flash my firmwares in my thread if you're from another country than the United States. Well if your device is not from u.s.

Thanks for the additional comments and your patience. My reference to "fuki" was from your original comment: "fukl firmware frequently fixes problems." is fukl an acronym or the name of a particular firmware. I'm headed to the forum you mention

Using ODIN and the correct flies can flash without root.

I'm stuck in TWRP

checked out the newest post on galaxynote2root.com about turning my note 2 into a S5/Note3 hybrid.
FOllowed the directions telling me to flash the Verizon version to my Sprint device but it failed. Normally no big deal but like an idiot I did not back up and I did not have another ROM to fall back on.
I have a card reader adapter that I have attempted to put other random roms onto and flash through TWRP but EVERYTHING fails and I can't figure out why. SOmebody please help me out here

......
Update: I've been able to flash the Illusion Rom with no Fail message but it just boots to the Samsung Galaxy Splash and doesn't move like it's loading the greatest cut scene ever. So yea still stuck if anybody could help out

Ok I can most likely help but I need more information. Give me a link to the thread you followed and the rom you flashed. Please send it in a PM so others wont see it and try to do the same thing.
Another user recently posted a video link to something claiming the same thing in one of my rom threads. I have ported over a Verizon rom to sprint and it is not a simple thinbg to do. Wish you would have seen this in my thread before you tried it. Hopefully I can get you up and running again.

I have no clue why he would claim it to work. I googled it and in the thread he is referring to the rom I ported over from verizon. It will not work as he states. You can try it of you want but I am telling you the person who posted it is wrong.

I went to that forum and read everything along with the comments. Looks like they really have no clue what they are doing. The users who did not mess up their device (non sprint users) do not have working wifi because they do not have the proper information. There are specific files on each device that is needed and they were not told to change them. I left a mostly nice comment about their steps for sprint.

Sorry guys I was already heading to bed when you guys started messaging back. I appreciate you guys taking the time out to help me with my problem. jlmancuso I've sent you that PM with hopefully all the information you need and requested.

Update: I have just attempted to Flash the stock firmware from samsung-updates.com through ODIN and I am unfortunately still getting no further than the Samsung Galaxy Note II splash and of course I've also lost TWRP
Final Update: After flashing the stock firmware back to my phone I went into the basic recovery mode that it has and did a factory reset yet again and apparently that did it and my phone is back to it's normal self.
Thanks for your help guys ... kinda lol
