2. Fix SMS
Framework.jar fix(Fix Russian and long SMS)
Another way(works before reboot):
After loading the phone you need to nail the process Phone.
For this, it is convenient to create a rule in the Liama ​​form:When phone starts up - kill Phone
The same result can be achieved by the following shamanism:
- Open the engineering menu through * # * # 4636 # * # *
- Go to the menu Phone Info
- Opposite the SMSC field click Refresh
- Click in the field to start editing
- Select and copy the first number in quotes to the buffer (along with quotes)
- Delete all remaining text
- Click "Paste"
- An error will appear that the application has been closed. After it, the number seems to remain the same, but the SMS will be sent.

Does anyone understand Korean?
What does this message mean when flashing?

It seems to understand.
Now everything stands still on:

At the same time, the phone has a black screen with the inscription S / W Upgrading ... At least what percentages would show: scratch_one-s_head:
And there it is written: Failed to retrieve the information of the cell phone.
And what to do?
Replaced the USB driver from the fact that a couple of posts were posted earlier, to the one that was downloaded with the firmware.
Again stuck with the message "Failed to retrieve the information of the cell phone."
In general, it turned out he hadn’t even started to sew anything yet ...

I also tried to install 2 CWM firmware from the dimoney post: one needs a password, another one is broken (I tried to download the Chinese from the forum).
In general, while xs how to return to the original please :)

Password for firmware from backup -www.wpcnn.com . I try to flash ...
I don’t have a backup & restore point in CWM (what’s in my own, what’s loading in exe)
It turned out that the recovery from 830 does not fit. I downloaded a worker. To install, connect the bodies in USB debugging mode and run the exe fromAttached fileCWM.zip(6.89 MB)


Put 1.47 from backup. From the noticeable - now it does not offer to upgrade by air and part of the prog in Chinese (which were in English).
It also became somehow smoother to work ... without blushing.
Built-in program for SMS improved. Now you can set the settings at what length to send MMS instead of SMS, whether to replace Unicode characters, etc. Fix SMS via the menu is still needed.
There are a bunch of Chinese prog, but they are easily removed via Titanium Backup

Put the firmware 1.47 (backup).
She is already routine. Today for the whole day there is not a single glitch, although I raped the phone pretty well :)

And so, I spent the whole night with an official flash driver - I could not flash my native firmware.
You can also try another USB driver -Attached fileusbDriver.zip(14.82 MB)
(this firewood downloads off. flasher).

Yes, it seems normal. True, judging by the logs of Liama, he constantly loses the network and immediately finds it.
SMS after fixing is also great send / come.

Can try firmware 1.53 and see how things are there



Rep: (176)
In general, a brief review of 1.47.
In general, it works stably (much better than 1.41), but there are drawbacks:
1) Periodically, the body is overloaded (about once a day).
2) Fix SMS crashes after reboot.
3) The radio module constantly loses and immediately finds the network. Accordingly, the battery is eating (>50% goes to the radio).
4) Mobile Internet sometimes sticks. The data icon is hanging, but there is no transfer. It is treated by reconnecting to the network or ringing. Of course, it is also treated, but for a long time.
5) Once when talking on a BT headset, the microphone did not work.

I'll wait for the firmware with SMS fix like on VR2 and put it on.



Rep: (108)
And how much in the firmware is translated into Russian, or is it only with English and further from the market morelocale?
last tried? I think that a device that constantly loses the network has some kind of hardware problem or the firmware itself ... and there are no modems for it separately? as for samsungs

Firmware 1.47 Chinese with English. But there is a part of the prog translated into Chinese (like Opera Mini).
1.53 contains 2 languages ​​- Korean and English.
He does not really lose the network. He then immediately finds. Those. There are no negative effects except for a strong discharge.
I have not tried the last one yet - I'm waiting with a normal SMS fix.
Modems have not yet seen separately.

And I can’t say this ... but since the Chinese have found a solution, it means they also have this problem :)



Rep: (176)
I was busy finding out where the battery is going.

Here is what I found:
1) TitaniumBackup sometimes sticks and does not allow the phone to fall asleep. Removed from sin away (put only when necessary).
2) Skype ate a lot of mobile Internet. For a week after installing the firmware, he deflated>120mb over 3G. In the internet I found a lot of complaints about the latest version of Skype. Put the penultimate custom build with XDA (v16).
3) GTalk was turned on and online (and I did not know). Blowed him nafig :)
4) The situation with constant reconnection to cells does not manifest itself in GSM Only mode. In all the others (WCDMA Only, WCDMA Preffered and GSM Auto) it takes place.

Now here's what happened in terms of consumption:
1) For 5 hours of lying on the phone with the included mobile Internet in GSM Only mode, he spent 4% of the charge. He spent about 2 hours in WCDMA Only mode. The signal in both cases ~ 80%.

2) For 27 minutes of the game in Defense Zone HD, the acc lost 17% (the mobile Internet was turned off).
