Bricked my 5.0 thinking about just getting a new one. . - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

I feel like it's going to be waaaaaay to hard to fix it. I been looking for a while and it seems like it's just a bunch of run around to be honest.

Well it's at least worth a try right? Try looking in one of the recovery threads for the 5.0. If it works then you'll be saving money

Has anyone used boot manager for dual booting roms

I don't think its officially supported yet for the 3d but after the last update it tries to let me setup zoos but keeps saying insufficient memory I have 2.3 gb free so not sure how much it needs if anyone else has had any luck can you please explain how u set it up

I also have an app called dualromX2 I think it was made for the dinc it uses emmc to dual boot was wondering if I post it if it could be ported to the 3d
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
yeah i second that. I figured people would be all over that dualromx for the 3dvo. I'm surprised that this is not talked about more. I'd imagine once we have AOSP it will be more in demand. But i want it now if anyone can give info on why it hasn't been talked about or if its not gonna be possible please share. thanks
Dual bout manager will work, as long as youre rooted.

Yea id much rather see dualromX work on the 3d
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
It's being worked on. There are several issues with this at the moment. I started the dual boot project last year, but lost motivation. I am actively working on it when I get a chance and also looking into using the extra free space on the emmc that we currently don't have access to. Conap refuses to work with me for some unknown reason, even though a lot of what he uses came from me. Don't worry though, it'll happen. And when it dies there will be some other big things coming out for it, that we've only dreamed of.

Yea that's the one I was talking about originally it just takes way too much space IMO like 3-4x the rim size and that's crazy with these 400 MB+ sense roms

Exchanging back to one s. Restore back to stock?

When I exchange to the one s, I'm obviously restoring back to stock via Odin but there is no way of resetting flash count. Would this cause an issue with t-mobile? This phone has way too many connection issues and the one s when I had it for a few days did awesome, unfortunately I jumped on the band wagon.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
try return it and see...i have not have troulbe with connection, must be that specific phone or your area
Definitely not my area. Had the one s for a few days and reception was insanely strong. Bought the phone from customer care over the phone.

Sacrifice signal strength for better hardware, its how it works. Get the crappiest flip phone in the world and it will have good signal strength if that's all you care about in a phone.
They're not going to check the counter. I can assure you.
How is gsm3 better hardware it's almost identical to the one s minus the screen and sd card and removable battery. I'm not bashing, I have the gs3 in my hands.

So I've been looking through associated threads on other phones that didn't have this available to them out of the box. So I assume this is similar issue with our phone?
Like need some .lib files and fix the build.prop and it'll automagically work?
I just really want to use it for the hell of it.

If you carefully follow directions, then it's never really scary.
One click root apps are pretty old now, they don't work on newer devices, so you'll probably have to "get your hands a little dirty" of you want to root

Probably, just don't pay too much. I'd say $15 is MAX, really don't want to get ripped off. Also, make sure you have some sort of "warranty" like if they brick it then they owe you a refund and full price of the tablet

Purchased a Note 2 off Craigslist... need to Rom it but have questions

The phone has superuser on it already. I downloaded ROM manager to check the recovery and it has CWM and TWRP. Is it safe to install custom roms or is there other steps that I need to take? The baseband is vraljb.... Android version 4.1.1
Thank you in advance.

If you can boot into the custom recovery, you can flash a custom rom.

If its legit, then you got a killer deal. The cheapest GN2 that I've seen was $350 but it had a cracked screen. I see some for $200-250, but I am sure those are scams. The next time you buy a Verizon phone, call *611 and verify the ESN status before handing over money or trading phones. A legit seller will not mind at all.
