I just unlocked my bootloader but now all my contacts photos are gone but my storage is still the same as before. I understand all my settings would be wiped but how about my personal stuff? Can you please help? Is there a way to find my messages and photos etc?
Thanks :good:
You should connect to the internet and sign in an account! Ur photo and music will come back! But i have no idea abt ur contact!

Thanks, but how about my apps? all the icons are gone...
I don't think u could get back ur apps and other data! I used to lost it at the time of unlocking bootloader like you! What can be saved is what u put on ur internal storage!

Go backup backs up contacts, sms, mms, call logs and even the way that your launcher was i.e. all your shortcuts and widgets. If you have root, it even backs up your apps and installs them without confirming every install separately like in titanium backup free version.
Good luck next time!

Yeah i know that but who have ever thought that unlocking bootloader might wipe user data! I've never experience such things!

Maybe this is not the answer you are looking for but...
To get Big pictures on contacts don´t sync with google contacts. Use the phone contacts app and choose a BIG picture for your contacts. It works great!
That bloody worked thank you very much I wouldn't of thought to do that I just thought I might have to disable the stock app for it ..thank

I´m glad you´re happy with this solution.
It´s very very weird that Google still needs a micro-picture contacts file in the time of HD-phones alike are available at affordable prices.

And I believe that was the same reason why you had smaller images in stock app.
So now that you used bigger picture you can try with stock app.
Hey guys,
I forgot my pin. I'm sure i'm entering the right code but still not working. I tried these options:
1.entering the supposedly wrong pin many times, and hoping it would ask me to sign in with my gmail/google credentials. But it never did.
2.Lock screen byppass pro says: not compatible with device from Google play store.
Are there any options left, have important files on the phone.
Thanks
NAndroid backup
Cwm wipe data
Either try restore data only or manually search nandroid backup for your important files
Good practice is to keep important files on an sd card rather than internal

I really need the data. And dont really want to root the S3.
Wipe cache and dalvik might work.

So you want/need these files, you can't get to the recovery screen but you don't want to take the other steps to get your data..

It's not that bad, just do some reading beforehand. There's even a tool that will do it for you. The Q/A forum is also very inviting I may add
Used samsung dive and I'm not up and running.
Why don't you just connect your phone to the computer with usb and transfer the files on to your pc? Or will it not connect with pin lock on?

It's smarter than that. If you connect in USB with the screen locked securely, it doesn't activate until you unlock it at least once.
OP, is it definitely the phone PIN as opposed to the SIM PIN? Cause there's no reason it shouldn't prompt you to override the phone pin with your Google account info

call your phone from another one and answer it. Once you answer hit the menu button and go to settings and quickly add another email account...Yahoo, hotmail, whatever. Can't hang up until done and have to be connected to Wi-Fi. Once it's stored in accounts you can hang up. go to lockscreen and enter that account as user and/or password. Any account you have stored to phone password will work.
Ok. Here's what I found.
In other words I unlocked it using Samsung Dive.
For some reason it locked and didnt accept my pin.
1.if possible dont use pin because for some reason it simply wont give you the option of forgotten and unlock with your google account.
2.If locked with pin you cant access files via pc.
3.so activate samsung asap and stay away from pin. Maybe this is a bug?

Will we ever have a better rooting solution on locked bootloaders without losing our data and stuff?
Is that even possible?
You can always make a backup, can't you?
I know but I don't to go through the hassle of restoring every single app, settings and anything else really.
I'd just like to know if there will ever be a method of rooting on locked bootloaders and staying on current firmware without losing anything.
The answer to your Hassel is TITANIUM BACK UP PRO.. It's really easy to back up n restore.. My one mostly takes a "click".. Always used da Batch commands to bck up n restore.. Really easy.. Try it..

Can someone refer me how to lock phone and contacts in memory. I know there is an option in jay's framework but I don't need whole framework just this option. No problem in editing apks and so just need to know what to edit.

Just use JKAY Framework its easy, and trust me once you do you'll never want to run your phone without it.
There is a thread on here about locking contacts and messaging in memory. Search and you should find it

No go. If I clear memory or reboot the phone, apps are removed from memory

Suddenly, my android phone have trouble with the issue that some of Applications close automatically right after launching, especially right after I reboot phone. What are the cause ?
After reboot, my phone still has about 200MB RAM free. however, after reboot about 1 or 2 minutes if I open Facebook,/xda,/viber ...it will automatically close immediately and back to home screen. BUT if I take the phone rest about 15mins, it becomes operating normally. No trouble with the issue that some of Applications close automatically right after launching anymore. So I don't know what's happen.
Please, give me some hints or advice.
Thanks all
