So I just purchased a brand new Vibrant 4g for the amazing deal of only $250 after I sold my captivate for the same price last night. I have a few questions that hopefully can be answered.
1. I have names in my messages? For example. My message might say "Me: How are you doing?" with the incoming being "*name here*: I am so awesome. Nothing can touch my awesomeness". This to me, is a complete waste of my messaging space since I can just look up top to see the name of who it is. My Captivate did not have this same "problem".
2. Double Contacts. This has probably been covered, but a google search wasn't bringing much up. I have double contacts in the Contacts app and when selecting people for a message. I can change the setting for contacts and its normal there, but there is still double in messaging, which is annoying. It shouldn't be hard to fix and ill probably just end up deleting my contacts from my SIM, but if there is an easier way I would appreciate it.
3. Rooting/Custom Roms. Now with the Captivate being one of the most active in the custom things, naturally I was flashing back and forth constantly because, well, its fun.
-Do procedure for the 4g vary from the 3g? I would assume that rooting and stuff should be exactly the same.
-Does the Vibrant use Odin like the Captivate in the exact same way? Dont want to get stuck in a brick.
Thanks to anyone who could answer some of these for me, I really appreciate it. I may think of more questions eventually, but these are it for now.
you should try going to the "samsung galaxy s 4g" forum. i thinks thats what its called...i also had a samsung 4g but returned it 3 days later. i believe that as of right now you can just get root access. no custom roms or tweaks. unless up to this date a dev has figured something out. hope that helps.

So it is pretty different than the 3g then? Hmm...
Ok thanks, Ill go check out the 4g section then.
I had this problem on the 23.03 as well, but didn't notice until this morning when I tried to make a very important business call from work
Much to my dissapointment I cannot make any phone calls using Hydrogen-23.03
So I updated to 25.03 since it is out now
Same problem
After some quick re-flashing and testing I find the problem is to do with the screen density....
When the phone is set for mdpi (160) the com.android.phone app force closes as soon as you hit the 'call' button
I have to keep the phone set at standard yucky 240dpi to make any phone calls
I have tried doing the factory data wipe, plus tried wiping the dalvik cache.. also tried deleting the data of Phone app... nothing seems to make it work at 160dpi
It's a known bug on AOKP that the dialer will crash upon making or receiving calls if the DPI is set below 182. Just set it to that and you should be fine.
No idea if a fix is already in the pipeline.

Will I have any Market issues at 182? I used to choose 160 because it's a standard option, I assumed it might be more compatible and now I've kinda gotten used to it.... I will try 182 though, because I really want to run Hydrogen (today I flashed FoxHound 7.0 and it's nice and I like the apex launcher, but Hydrogen was just so cool with its AOKP awesomeness and the ROM Control menu is great, plus it's a very cut-down ROM which I prefer because so far I can't get any good battery life from my SGS2
Thanks for the reply!
Yes, using 182 will cause compatibility issues since it's a non standard resolution, but you can get around it with LCD density modder pro.

Phone bricked?
Hi, first post, hopefully at the right place.
I've just installed HyDrOG3NICS. Unfortunately, it seems to have bricked my SII.
I get a black screen, that's all. No recovery mode, no download mode, nothing.
Is there anything I can do to get back either the recovery or the download mode?
Thx a lot

You have a blank profile, and you only state you have an "SII".
Check what model of SII you have. It will be on the label under the battery.
US carriers all carry a completely different model of SII than what this forum is for (GT-I9100). If you have an American carrier model of SII, you are in the wrong place, and flashed a firmware that wasn't meant for your phone, and may have completely borked it.

You need to be rooted to do this. From what I can tell, HyDrOG3N-ICS 25.03 is NOT rooted unless you root after installing it.
Also, it's pretty rude to hijack threads, unless you are having the same problem the OP of the thread is having. That applies to both you and soho123.
Yikes! Apologies for offending you!
Only posted it in this one as it was linked to the same ROM!
I'll try not to be so rude in future.
But thanks for the reply anyway.

Doesn't offend me. But it goes against one of the forum rules. (off-topic posting)
It may be the same ROM, but it's a totally different problem.

if you flashed the HyDrOG3N-ICS 25.03 rom you can change them through
settings>>Rom Control >>General UI >> LCD Density.
It will be set to 240 by default. do not change it unless you know what you are doing.. anything less then 182 causes issues with market and phone app on the AOKP rom which HyDrOG3N-ICS is based on
Thanks nomi.
I'll read into it a bit more before i do anything. Curiosity gets the better of me when I read so many posts about tweeks and features.
ctomgee, point taken. I'll try not break anymore rules. Thanks for heads up.

Sounds off topic, but if when you say "it should work shouldn't it", you are talking about the HyDrOG3N-ICS ROM, then yes, it should work. Unless you didn't follow the installation instructions exactly.
Hard bricked, so your phone does not react with the battery in and any button presses at all?
Admins- apologize for posting it here. Please feel free to move to appropriate location. I just want to help fellow Galaxy Note (korean version) owners. With the help of Google translate, and straining to interpret various chinese and korean websites, I was able to deduce a way to root the Korean note via updating it with rooted stock firmware (Samsung Original Firmware, only it's already Rooted).
How to Root Korean Note via Flashing with Rooted Stock Firmware
Flashing:
general instructions taken from mycatisether post
Put the Korean Note into download mode by holding down the volume down button + home button + power button
The Note will then display a tonne of Korean text on-screen, press the volume up button to actually enter the download mode
Run Odin in administrator mode (not really sure if it makes a difference but might as well), make sure Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are the only checked items, click the PDA button and select the appropriate firmware file from the list below. Each ROM ~1GB+. Note that the latest firmware is at the bottom of the list for each model.

Note: Flashing this firmware will not erase your data. It will preserve everything (apps, accounts, SMS, etc), including keeping disabled all the bloat apps I've disabled in the system. Rooting will allow you to permanently remove all these and other protected bloat apps.
Thank you OP...good work ....g

Sounds like your phone is carrier locked. I think you need to have to unlock your phone first. Rooting will not unlock carrier.

Well, I think you can just simply decide which one of them you want to use, and uninstall the other. If it's a user app, it should be pretty easy to uninstall it. If it's a system app, you may need to use titanium backup to do it.

Yes it is a system app. Can't see it in system\app folder. Tried titanium backup and root explorer too. But can't see the app there.But the super user and SuperSU both apps are there.
This is perfect. The 4th ICS Rom that I found after searching for so long!

This is awesome indeed, thank you so much jairrab!
I just got the SHV-E160S from a Korean friend and updated it to the latest firmware via KIES (IMM76D.UH24).
As I suspect many others have experienced, I noted to my dismay that I cannot send text messages longer than 80 characters, and that I only have G-service with my 4G plan on T-Mobile in the US.
I read through as much I could find about the Korean Notes on the web, including here on XDA, but a few question marks remain and I was hoping some of you kind gentlemen could help me figure those out.
Four quick questions (althouh detailed answers are definitely welcome
Will flashing the ROM give me ability to text normally?
Will flashing the ROM allow me at least 2G or 3G speeds on T-Mobile or AT&T in the US?
Can I revert to the original Korean rom from SK Telecom/Samsung, and if so where can I find it? (I am going back and forth to Korea so having the native rom is immensly helpful)
Are there any drawbacks to flashing this phone apart from losing Korean services?
Thank you so much. I am so glad I found at least a tiny teeny Korean Note owning community here on XDA. Hopefully it'll have time to grow and develop. :fingers-crossed:

Hi there,
I will tell you what I knows about the Korean Note till date;
1. You can't just flash any ROM and it will work with the Korean Note, especially the I717 ROM's they will not work. Even I thought it should but apparently there are subtle differences between these phones and Samsung Korea made it different than the I717.
2. There is a hidden menu for every Korean Note, I own the SHV-E160L and it is 319712358 then for the password it is 0821. You can manually select your data connection there. I guess E160L is locked with U+ on LTE and it is CDMA, so it will not work with 4G/LTE. But, you can switch to WCDMA, this gives you 3G speeds, and GSM only will give you GPRS. I am using 3G speeds currently in India.
3. These are the orignal ROM's. For my E160L Kies detects it as orignal and indicates that I am up to date with the firmware.
4. As I said earlier, flashing any ROM will not work, it will need specific ROM's for your particular SHV only. We all are wishing for a good custom ROM, but no success till date. There are some ROM's available for SHV's on KOXDA, but again the language is a big problem, along with the site securities.
I hope this will help you in some regards. Have fun..
Thanks

Hey woopsgoops, thanks a lot for that information! You might just have saved me a headache or two.
I was seriously going to flash with the T-Mobile Rom+modem, but now I am glad I didn't. I might flash with the ROM supplied in this thread to at least get root and sort out some of the *cough* bloatware *cough* issues.
Firstly I am going to explore this hidden menu if I can set up network etc. for T-Mobile here in the US, so I can get at least 3g. I'll report back on that! It kind of sucks when you go from 4G (eg. having the fastest data in town) to 2g, even though TMO is extremely cheap.
Just to let you know, for the SVH-E160S the dial number 319-712-358 is correct, but the password turned out to be 996412, courtesy of another XDA member: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29451233&postcount=3
As for the Chinese websites I am trying to steer clear of those. There's always a nagging feeling of being observed by something whenever I surf China, and then there's the viruses. It might just all be paranoia though.
By the way, what a great phone the Note is. It looks, feels, and works absolutely phenomenal. Good job Samsung, I am sure other manufacturers will start making similar devices. Seems even Apple is heading that direction, abandonig their holy grail "optimal" 3.5 inch screen.
Plus, I am stoked that I could encrypt the entire phone. I was always worried sick with all my passwords etc. lying around my older androids, if they'd ever get stolen or lost.
I'll report back on the US carrier compatibility!
Thanks again!

You are welcome mate. I am glad that it helped you.
Yes, in my opinion you should flash the ROM in this thread, which will give you root access then using titanium backup/ root explorer you can get rid of all the bloatware in the Korean ROM.
For the SMS, make sure that you have your number shown in Settings>About Phone>Status>My Phone Number with country code. If it is not there then you need to borrow an i-phone or Cynogen Mod Android phone (CM7 in my case) and put your number manually via its settings. Since there is no way you can do it on the original ROM running on Android.
Then you can install Handcent SMS and turn it as your default messaging app. This should give you SMS lengths more than 80 characters, but less than 150 characters. Anything beyond or around 150 characters and the SMS will hang up and will show sending forever. I have tried to search for solutions for it like changing the 6 files in system>app folder with N7000's MMS.apk but it didn't worked. So living with it for the time being. At least it is more than 80 characters.
Let us help each other, and hope that someday a kind developer see our pain and give us a custom ROM!!

Hey, thanks for this additonal information!
Exploring this phone I go from clarity to clarity. I stumbled upon something while I was texting today. When I used the Google Voice app (I use it for its excellent voicemail service and the extra phone nr it provides) I realized that I can text to my hearts content. No beeps, no conversion to mms, no failed send, no nothing, just pure sending goodness 160+ characters per text. I instantly switched to get all my text to the Google Voice app and replaced the default messaging app on my TouchWiz quickbar. Felt like to easy to be true, but there you go! Sometimes you get good surprises as well.
As you may recall, I was a bit upset about the Korean bloatware that sucked my RAM away, but realized this awesome device actually allows for disabling of apps. I don't actually care if they're on my phone memory as long as they're not running in the background. Good stuff!
I honestly don't even feel compelled to get root anymore, because the only reason of having it - for me personally - would be to get true backup from my TitanitumBackup license, and stuff like that. Now, unless root and/or ROM flash would give me some major improvement such as increased data speeds I don't think it's really worth it for me.
For all the fun of exploring Samsung's maintenance GUI, the hidden menu unfortunately didn't give me much joy. I figured out there are no compatible T-mobile or AT&T 3G frequencies anyway, and all the other carriers such as StraightTalk, SimpleMobile, MetroPCS, etc. just use the antennas of those two anyway. American companies are world class when it comes to crippling the competition. Not a chance for consumers to jump ship without losing an arm or a leg. Creates a sense of belonging I guess
I am currently trying to straighten out an issue I have when I plug in the phone to my Windows PC USB and it says "Hardware ID missing." It worked well before, before I upgraded to ICS unless I'm mistaken. In any case, I think I can use KIES Air and transfer stuff OTA for now, or put stuff on the SD card I suppose. I even tried the USB drivers from the Korean Samsung website, and downloaded Kies from the same place. Will see how that turns out when I have some time.
Thanks, and have a good weekend now! :good:
Wait very long at start up
How long you have to wait after flashing and see the phone go into Android?
I have 160L. After I flash it, I wait at Pink "U+ LTE" loading like forever. (I wait 30mn and still there).

HELLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
First off, Hi, yes i am a N00B... i hear your groans already :good:
So i finally took the plunge to move to android after many years on Blackberry and have to say for the most part i am glad i did. I am currently running a Samsung Galaxy SIII;
Model GT-I9300
Android 4.1.2
Baseband Version I9300DXELK1
Kernel 3.0.31-836582
[email protected] #1
Build Number
Android revolution HD21.1 by mike1986
I am on the Isle of Man Network (Cable & Wireless Guernsey / Sure Mobile (Jersey) (according to Play))
Whilst i am a techie and have worked in IT for over 10 years i am still finding my way with Android so please bare with me! (I wouldn't for a second fathom that i know enough about development so thought i'd come talk to you guys.. as. well. you develop the stuff i'm having issues with!)
My mate rooted and uploaded a customer ROM for me when i got it and pretty much left me to my own devices, whilst i have only had a play round for a few weeks and downloaded some apps there is a few things that are annoying me (and yes i have searched around these forums, googled the hell outta it and unfortunately the things i have tried hasn't worked for me. So...
the crux of the matter is, there are 2 apps i am trying to get working on my phone but unfortunately there are a number of issues.
Sky Go: initially not showing up in the play store (rectified by the use of PhoneControl and Market Enabler)
When attempting to download i get "This item is not available in your country"
Whilst googling i noticed i was not the only one experiencing this issue and with some help from other frustrated users attempted to spoof the phone into thinking its on a different network codes via MarketEnabler. No dice. (although i can now at least see the 2 apps im trying to d/l. I know it works locally as i use it on my ipad (sorry to swear!)
HSBC Fast Balance: Same issues as above, research unfruitful. I had this app previously on my blackberry (shocker i know) so i know it is available in my region.
I have tried multiple things to try and fool the device into thinking it is somewhere else, i have tried changing my default country in multiple areas thinking this is the problem. No dice
So my guess is that the ROM my mate downloaded was developed in a different country and as such hard coded somewhere into the version, but im just guessing.
Any help/advice you may be able to offer would be most appreciated

I'm guessing you are rooted, / bank apps don't play nicely with root due to security issues

Same with Sky Go
There's nothing wrong with the custom ROM your friend installed, but you might be better off going back to the latest stock ROM (XXEMB) for the UK - if you want the phone to work exactly as Samsung intended it to. Android is a wonderfully open ended OS but can be a bit too open ended sometimes.
You can download stock ROMS from links in the general forum and follow (closely) the instructions to flash it via Odin on your PC - or get your friend to put back how he found it.
Hi All:
This is my first post in this forum.
I have been using Liquid Smooth JB 2.1 RC2 ROM since Feb 2013 and I really love it. Recently the 2.2 Official version was released and I flashed the ROM accordingly along with GApps.
Unfortunately, when someone calls my phone, nothing happens, no caller display or change in display or not even a ring! The calling party state that they hear the ringing. When I tested it by calling my own phone, I saw that I could hear the ringing from the phone I was dialing from but on my S3, there was no response what so ever...to better explain it, the phone is like its on standby...even when I wake up the screen, I only see the main screen and nothing else..its like no one is actually calling.
When I tried making calls from my S3, the calls went through ok but I could not hang up! I have my phone programmed to end the call using the Power Button, but I still can't hang up. I tried this multiple times but nothing fixed it. I reinstalled the 2.2 version 3 times but no joy. I followed the installation procedure word to word! Out of despiration, I went back to 2.1 RC2 and the phone stated working again..but only this time, it seems to crash a lot. I assume its because of the insane chip that S3's come with.
I have searched the forums high and low but there is not a single thread discussing this issue! Please Help!
Device: S3 i9300 International
Kernel: 3.0.31-CM-gcea4b18
Baseband Version: i9300DDELK1
Here is some advise for success on Xda. Search and read as much as possible. Not only did you post this in the genreal section where as all questions go in the Questions and answers section (btw there is a sticky that states this). The galaxy S3 has its own forum. I moved the thread there to help you out.

Hi Mark, thanks a lot mate! Appreciate the help. I have been on XDA for the last 15 days trying to look for an answer with S3 and the Liquid Smooth 2.2 official but no luck so far so out of desperation, I posted on here.
Anyways, apologies and thanks for the help.
Liquidsmooth 2.5 V issues
Hi All: As I am a junior member and am not allowed to post questions or issues I am having on the developer forum and hence am forced to post here.
I just updated my phone to Liquidsmooth v2.5 and its working pretty good, decent battery life and all that. However, there is one issue that is bugging me and I will try my best to explain it as much as I can.
When I am on the phone for about 3 minutes and over and if I get a second call, the display shows nothing. I have to press the Home key in order to wake the screen up to view who the caller. is. However, if I am on a call and I get a another within first 1 min or 2, the second caller is displayed on the screen.
Its definitely an issues, which I had with Liquidsmooth v2.1 as well. The screen won't wake up when I am on the phone to show me who the second caller is. I did make sure that the camera was't covered and yet it does the same.
If someone has any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks.
