thank you you must be smarter than me . it was a question for a developer to see therefore posted in this section, not being for actual development would be also incorrect, so maybe i can see through your eyes as you see this post in the incorrect spot although my post is still in guidance of forum rules but whatever you say works best...where ever the answers may lie big boss man

This is for development releases. You are not releasing anything development wise. That's why xda has a great Q & A section

please delete this modder person im going to ask it in another section.

But to answer your question. No. You need root access to get into a secure area of your device

Nice ROM, the most stable JB ROM I've tried, however after the 9-16-12 update Visual Voicemail doesnt work anymore. Is there a fix for this?

This isn't a helpful response. Either leave a helpful response and remind the user where to find it, or don't leave one at all.

Ken its literally the thread above his it takes 2 seconds and isn't rule number 1 to search so why is it necessary for other users to follow rules and yet these guys can break the first rule with no repercussions I've spoken to other moderators about this and they agree those that dont search should get infractions just like those who break rule 2.3

I did do a search before posting this thread and I think I found the thread you're referring to however a link to the thread with the answer might have been helpful as the one I found didn't help resolve the issue.

I think its about time we got out own thread for general apps and q and a, the current threads are stuffed with s3 stuff which is not related to our device

Thanks again Scotsman.
If there are enough threads to warrant a dedicated section, we'll do it. chwads2k8: can you round up all of the threads (besides the obvious ones contained within this thread) and send me a PM?
I think the mod means all the threads like Questions and stuff in the I9300 threads.. Woah that will be hard lol
Honestly All i basically asked for to the moderators about 1 week ago is a seperate Q&A thread aswell as this thread we already have. Only because when someone asks a question about this device it gets lost almost instantly... Maybe if we atleast start with a Q/A thread that will allow general questions and discussions about this device only. It will work and then when this device starts to become bigger and bigger then maybe we should get the whole new thread with, themes/apps/ Q/A, general, original development etc....
So for now the most important is a Q/a thread and the dev thread... But the Dev thread should be allowed to have apps & themes in it. and the q/a thread should be allowed to have general questions and info on the I9305
+1 for separate thread. It's not too bad sorting out I9305 vs I9305T, but too many differences vs I9300, as we've seen with the lost IMEI posts for example.
Someone else continue with this i decided to get rid of my phone and got note 2

How about we just add a I9305 dedicated Q&A section? Would that solve the problem?

Excellent. Yes this would solve the major prob of having questions being on this thread and getting lost in the i9300 thread. Just use the exact same title as this thread showing the main spec differencies as this will stand out gt-i9305 (4g + 2gb ram) but instead of development have Q/A

I have to agree with the op. Threads not in development get overlooked quickly. They fall of the radar fast. I have a way to do this on stock TW without flashing files and going back to your back up, etc. But just like this guy, getting bashed for the wrong area, I'm apprehensive about posting my results. Is the fix app related? Development? General? Depends on who you talk to. Once I get a solid answer from a moderator, I will post my finds.
EDIT: I feel personally the fix should go in development. A lot of people are asking for this in all the ROMs.

The problem is if everyone posts there question in development then it still become like q & a and we won't be able to find actual development. I gave the op the answer. All you do is flash it in cwm and then it there will be a setting in the stock messaging app.

Some people may be stock rooted. May not have custom recovery. They may be happy with stock just want the nagging screen on to go away. That's all I'm doing is tweaking the stock ROM. Just FYI.

Well that's a nice tweak. I'm stock rooted myself (now) but I put a recovery on simply to do backups and ensure I don't get an ota. However many point was if they allows questions in the development thread then out will become bogged down like the other sections. Also, the op made a duplicate post in the correct section that was answered

[How to] Unbrick MF3 Custom Recovery Fail

I figured that I might post this to help some people as I see this posted a lot.
Are you one of the ones that tried to install a custom recovery on the MF3 update? Are you facing a never ending boot sequence or device just freezing at boot screen?
Try this to help you get a normal boot so your phone is at least usable. (Note that your factory recovery will no longer work!)
First off, do a battery pull.
After you put the battery back in (make sure it's not plugged up) go into download mode.
Click Cancel instead of continuing into download mode. Chances are your device will boot up normal. I've tried this with a device I own and also tried it on a few others (through PM and chat online).
If this works for you please let me know!
Lol I figured this out in 2 mins of owning the phone.

You should change the title...EXTREMELY misleading...sounds more like a thread for a workaround to install a custom recovery lol

Yeah it'd be good to have this info in a better titled thread than it was...and an even better titled thread than this one.

Guys I'd appreciate it if you didn't spam up this topic with nonsense.
The phone is not bricked for one.
It was never publicly announced what to do one these forums that I could find.
Edit: I just read your posted topics and neither one says to do this
The questions are asked every day by people.
This post has potential to stop some messages.
Stop posting here just to get your post count up. If you don't have anything relavent to say then find another topic.
For the guys post above me thanks for adding more ways to help try to do a workaround even though you tried to undermine me here.

If you're stuck in download mode and cannot get to your OS, I think that counts as a brick! Yes, btw, post 11 in the first thread I linked shows the solution which I have been telling others to do...which you did us the favor of making a post about as well. I agree that it's good to make this post, though I think your thread title could be more useful if you edited it.
Also, should this method not work for some people, an alternative method is a good thing to have.
Thanks again and have a nice day! :good:

I think my suggestion in post #8 is still a good one.
Your current thread title makes it sound like you tried to flash a custom recovery on MF3 and it didn't work. There's no way anyone would read that title and think there's a "How To" guide in it.
Alright maybe that will work.
Sent from miPhone using XDA Premium HD app
Lol I found this thread after I figured it out for myself. I was kind of hoping this would lead me into a way to get back my recovery.
This is how I fixed my brick.
Flashed this file in ODIN. Now my phone boots normally. Got it from another thread with a diff issue here on XDA. I tried it and it worked. Wish I could remember where and what the thread was called. I believe it was this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360859

can anyone help me to add new device in XDA developers...?

There is a thread to request new device forums to be added, but there are several criteria that need to be met before the device gets its own forum. It will require a lot of custom development to be already available before it gets a forum. The device must also have a large community of people using it. Those are the two main requirements, there are more so you've got some waiting to do before it gets a forum, IF it ever gets one.
