He may have some orificial explanations for the stuff he spews.

Good morning

This time round I'm very tired due to night duty, but I think the correct term would be paradox.
It is usually not a desirable state to be in hahahaha. Contemporary should simply mean being current, not old.

There's a file called gpsd.conf or something that sets the location of the nearest satellites. I don't know how to edit it but you can check some gurus on xda.

Maybe your phone is now experiencing a paradoxical state about its identity??

Please don't torture your phone anymore, set it free from its jail........

Back to hangout here?

His is an AP set, he would have gotten it cheaper in the first place, and he stated there were some cosmetic defects.

Anyway, tech products always depreciate very quickly. Don't feel bad about it.

electronic failure.... you hit the jackpot. you should try the lottery today.

i said "or something" because i can't recall the exact name.

revert to stock and be prepared for triangleaway :-)

sony wants to be the crapple of the Android world. "premium"

That is a good one. I wonder if simply removing the 2 bootloader files from the TAR before flashing via PC Odin might also do the same trick? Or uncheck the Bootloader option when flashing via PC Odin?

If your mum intends to become a flashoholic, then no

If she is using it because of her eyesight, and is only ever using the phone and sms functions, plus maybe fb and instagram, then go ahead.

Technically your warranty is void, but it seems Samsung usually turns a blind eye to this. There is a hidden counter which cannot be reset by any current hack.

You do not need root to backup some items. If she has a gmail account, use SMSBackup+ or any similar software to backup all sms, calls, mms to gmail. Sync the phone contacts to gmail as well. That should solve backup for her intended use cases.

If she plays games and wants to backup the savegames, these are supposed to work for backing up unrooted phones:

I haven't tried them as I'm already rooted.

A little less awesome then?

Bro, of course !!

Post this in the ipron forums. Vox clamantis in deserto. Hopefully they listen.

So it is probably that the gps config file got reset when you performed a fullwipe. You've got lots of "the game" for your phone

For those who don't want to do the swap thing, GLtoSD is a good choice, allows the same end result.

Start them young. So I guess he is proficient at flashing and knows his bits and bytes? Ensure he knows the importance of OPEN computing platforms and who owns HIS data.

Good, but ensure he is aware also that the world is not just Micro$oft. Undoubtedly there will be a heavy component of vested interests by incumbent vendors. Expand his horizons.

"what does it do"

Yes it can be used on stock rom and kernel. I'm using the same. I did not go into the details but I suppose it operates on a similar concept.
