Remote Diagnostic = TROUBLE - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

This tool will now be on our phones if you update. It sounds like they may be able to see if a person Is rooted. And other security issues might arise What are your thought

Don't update, simple as that. That's what i think

Nobody with root should be installing ota anyways.

I only installed the radio. I highly doubt they'll be able to just connect whenever they want. You'll have to accept the request cause that would be some form of invasion of privacy but I still dont like the fact that they tried to force it on the phone. A big FU to Verizon for that one

They can not just search your phone. When you call in if they need to use it, they ask your permission and before it is initiated you have to enter a code to grant access.
Having said that, don't take an ota if you're rooted

I always thought about how celeb nude cell phone pictures get leaked by some nerd at the cell phone company digging though their phones lol

As soon as I saw this on my fiance's stock phone, I said "No way, no chance I'm going to update my rooted phone." Like others have said, if you're rooted, you shouldn't be taking the update. If you updated your rooted phone and ran into issues, these post have warn you already.

To my understanding, it was on our phones when we first got them. I've called into Verizon to troubleshoot a signal issue and the computer and technician both asked me to let the use it. I have always declined. My brothers Droid Razr Maxx also has this.

My thought is to use cwm to banish the update to cache limbo, where I can pick it apart at my liesure and choose what (if anything) I want from it before filing the update as a whole with my S3 data.
I miss the days when people wanted an ota to hit so we could pick it apart for new software, anymore it seems most people are afraid of it...

Remote Diagnostic is a really really old news. I have this on my Charge and I rooted the hell out of it with many many custom roms and kernels. I flash like 1000 times and when I need to exchange, I just flash back to stock and they gave me a new one. In short, it's nothing people, it just being used to fix your phone remotely, of course, before you give them permission to look around, you have to roll it back to stock first.

This was on my old Razr Maxx. As stated, you have to allow it for Verizon to use it.
And with it, Verizon was able to see how Flash video was broken on my phone after the ICS update.

People were saying this BEFORE this update apparently Samsung has a root checker on these phones. My Droid charge had the same remote diagnostics. They can only use it if you enter the code. So you need to know what you're taking about before you start flaming. By the way how exactly am I noob?
By the way read previous post of people who have used it AFTER being asked to.

All of the major telecoms have had entire floors in their office buildings full of NSA employees and government snooping equipment for years now. Root is the least of your worries.

It comes with an unlocked bootloader? Have you checked AP Fastboot?
And you are sure you didn't have to go through a process asking if you wanted to void your warranty? It seems strange to ship with a voided phone

Nothing worked on the phone besides the launcher. The slide up notifications per icon was badass. But it had no network service or WiFi. Not even a play store. Had a bunch of apps but they were dummy icons. He said it was for development purposes and show. It was extremely smooth though. I asked about the boot loader and he said yes to being unlocked. He was quick to answer and said that it is the first Motorola device to ever ship with an unlockable boot loader. He said it would be kinda similar to the gnexs. There will be an easy to access option out of the box to unlock the boot loader.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
He also gave me a statistics speech about why they have ignored bootloader unlock claims in the past but I don't remember. I was playing with the phone lol. But I'll ask again when he comes around next month. Had something to do with percentage and how we the people asking for the unlocked boot loader are only a 1%

If you can get information on the bootloader unlock process that'd be awesome. The Atrix HD has an option but doesn't say a code. If the Photon Q shows the code for you when you run 'fastboot oem unlock' then I think it would mean hard work to get the Atrix HD unlocked.
Price??
Is there any mention of the price for photon Q?

Thanks for sharing this - still surprised that the phone is marketed with business users, as subjectively put... in mind - being that the battery is fixed, what options have you heard for individuals needing more power for voice calls on the go?
I loved the previous one which I still use - mainly for it's swappable batteries for continuous voice calls - not everyone has the chance to be by a power source to charge (e.g. wall / car). There are external power packs as I mentioned in another post; (either by solar or pre-charged that plug into the microusb).

They can market it as a business phone but I love the new features and I know most other consumers would. Of course smartactions and the new swipe feature for notifications on icons. He said the RAZR already has smart actions. Why hasn't anyone ported that feature yet?!

oh damn! i didnt even think of looking. he was in the store for about half an hour talking to us about it. i spent most my time testing out the keyboard and messing around with the new UI. which btw on the 19th, 20th at the latest i hope to see this new launcher ported to other devices! trust me, everyone will love it! they took features from jellybean and pimped them up for ics on the q
our store should get them by this friday. if so then ill get the model number for you then. and whatever else you need. and sense the bootloader is unlocked it should be fairly easy for me to extract an image from it to post here before the 19th
actually.. we would probably get the demo phone before the actual phones.. which should be in the next few days. demo phones are no different than the real thing. they come to us with a demo video app preinstalled. we have factory reset our demo phones before and used them as a store phone. could someone point me in the right direction of getting an image from this phone? **safely**. dont want to **** the phone up and get fired lol
ive never tried with dump_image but i would imagine that might work. ideally we could root it and grab the images that we need then unroot it easily enough. once it launches and the tool comes out i could put out the CWM and have people unlock to root

[q] unlocking = root access? side effects?

I haven't seen this addressed, so please forgive if I've overlooked the thread.
Does unlocking the bootloader via their tool provide root access? That is, will unlocking the boot loader be sufficient to give apps like Titanium Backup and ES File Explorer root access, or do I have to flash a custom ROM?
What are the side effects of unlocking? The Motorola page implies the phone may detonate or give you cancer or the like. I don't much care about DRMed media, so as long as the rest of the device's functionality works that's all I care about.
Thanks for any insight.
As far as I know (and i was confused as well), unlocking the bootloader does not mean the phone is rooted, it just ALLOWS for root or installing custom ROMs to be done more easily.
Does rooting with shabbypenguin's method modify the existing rom or does it install a new one? I can't tell from the instructions and I want to be sure I'm not going to erase my phone before I do it.

It installs the root files into /system/ when you flash the .zip in his CWM.

Hope you've already unlocked the bootloader, that process will wipe the phone. Rooting it will not.
For the current root method, you need to first unlock the bootloader, then flash a custom recovery with fastboot. Once you have that recovery in place, you can flash the su binary to have root in the system partition.
root will not bring anyside effects unless you install something that will, watch out for unknown SU requests
only side effect of root is losing the full use of some apps and total lose of some as well, taking in mind that some app developers block root users in one fashion or another

I just purchased a Galaxy S3 cash from a local guy. Firstly once i removed the stock screen protector I found that the phone had the following inscription just beside the samsung logo to the left side D2-34** other characters there....
It activated with verizon as a "4G test device"

I think that it was flashed prior to your purchase based on the name of the build number... try flashing a stock rom to see if it changes or ask for a refund from the guy you bought it from
Edit....
Restoring my stock image now perhaps that will shed some light on the subject....
Stock
These are the details from the stock rom as it was received. To this point the only thing I had done was gain root access.

I spoke to the guy that sold me the phone. He has filed a request with verizon wireless to get the MEID updated in the system to show the proper device. He is a verizon rep so hopefully they will get this pushed through.
I have a friend who works for HTC and I've gotten quite a few dev phones from him. I was in the same boat once and Verizon corrected the meid number with no issue. It does take 2-3 business days though.
The problem is that the phone goes right to HTC, in my case, and not too Verizon. The phone is never tagged in their system so that's why they have too add it.

Sounds like this was a phone they had in a Verizon store that had the smart phone dummies instead of real phones. I think sometimes those stores get a complementary model for people to use when they want to see the real thing... maybe this could be it?

Nope, read it, it's cool where he's coming from, but I couldn't care less. If superuser was such a security risk, I doubt cyanogen would still be using it, and about every single rom out there uses supersu (also get regular updates), so I'm sure if there was a security flaw, it'd be known by now, and he updates regularly enough I'm sure it'd get patched if it was, just like koush's.
I like Supersu, it gets regular updates, chainfire seems intelligent from reading some of his forum posts, and tons of roms are using it without security breaches due to it. Not everything closed source is bad, some people just put a lot of work into their app and don't want to just give it away (unless that was the intention, ex linux). Could it probably be made better with open source? Sure, but giving up your source also brings kangers (think anthrax kernel). I love open source, I love seeing others code to see how they went about something, it's an art and there will always be someone smarter than you to learn from, but I also can appreciate people's decision to keep their programs closed source after spending so many hours on computer science labs to make a simple command line shopping cart and it annoys me when people classify someones work insecure solely because they don't give the source code. Plus some people do this as their living and make money off it, how much money do you think someone will make if they give away their code? Sure there will be donators, but most likely someone will build the program and distribute it for free.
Everyone's opinion is different, I tried to state mine in a brief way that didn't attack anyone earlier but you decided to call me out and go all "bro" on me so now you know where I'm coming from.

Yes, as in it's not going to persuade me to go download the app.

I think he was just pointing out your mistake that way too many people make. "Couldn't" care less is what you should have said.

Ah didn't catch that, I corrected it, thanks.
having more options is great. although superSU is incorporated in more leak packages and roms already.
cwm should have made this along time ago.

My bad, I thought he was just pointing out where my error was, so when I saw you quote it, I thought you were doing the same except adding in the correction... didn't occur to me he was trying to correct it and failed, so I apologize.
And zero sh!ts were given this day...

I agree totally,
I use this app for two reasons. It's open source and is made by one of the best developers ever! He also developed thus other little thing called CWM!

I highly doubt that this is the place for immature ppl to be arguing with each other. This is a forum ppl get your head out of your asses and delete this nonsense its unnecessary. Xda created this to help ppl out and you guys are clearly disrespecting them. I read a post earlier in this thread about ppl posting the sane questions over and over again and disrespecting rom makers now I see what he's talking about. Everybody needs to grow up this isn't the place for this..write a private message

[HOW TO] reset AT&T data usage

so I figured this little trick out by accident actually. while it's pretty useful to know, I'd suggest not using it unless you really need to. basically don't abuse it or it'll get 'patched' (for lack of a better word).
STEP 1
have AT&T give you a new SIM card.
* going into any AT&T store and saying you're having signal issues will get you in and out the door with a new SIM in 5 minutes, free of charge.
STEP 2
you're all done.
* if you want to check to see that it worked, open your dialer, press *3282# (*DATA#) and hit call. in a free seconds you'll receive a free text message from AT&T updating you on your data usage. you'll see two lines, one of which will read (DEACTIVATED), and your data will be back at 0/3GB (*screenshot related)
anyways, try not to abuse this. it should really only be a last resort thing. so only use it if you really need it!

Cool that you figured this but it won't work like that for long after posting this you can count on that.

It's not tracked by SIM ID, it's tracked by IMEI, and Ph#, so something else reset your data.

Your screen shot proves your theory wrong -_-
Notice how it states your data twice but only once is deactivated...nowhere does it say 0mb used out of whatever...your current data usage is about 2900 mb, don't go over!!!!
-nice try tho

It's what happens when time warner cable is the only ISP In your area and they pull an epic fail yet again and yea I know I was bad very very bad. We need some google fiber or at lest a 2nd "ok" ISP.

Well I apologize, I just found it hard to believe you used that much data so quickly...based off me assuming you only did this recently. Of course its entirely possible to use that much data fast -one hd movie will put you close to there....but it was just so close to the other one I assumed it was never reset...really should take my moms advice on never assuming things as half the times when you assume you end up being wrong

Hearts and minds ^^
As for the topic at hand, don't you think it's a little devious to have your data reset like that? In the long term its gonna create more bothersome questions for the rest of us down the road when we do have realm SIM issues
