4.4 KitKat Update Release Date for Samsung Galaxy S III! topic

I just finished chatting with Presley, one of the many live technical support people and I asked him a few questions about the 4.4 KitKat update release date and this was his reply..

Running 4.1.2.. Is my Note 2 up to date? topic

Hey Guys, there is something I've never been clear about. My Note 2 is an international unlocked version. I'm using it on T-Mobile, will I be able to get the latest OS from T-mobile for my International version? Or, do I need to go to a Samsung website?

I always check the updates and it says I'm up to date, but I really would like 4.2 for mirror display capability. How do people get the latest OS? Like Kit Kat? Do you have to wait for t-mobile? Can you get it else where?

Please advise, thanks!

Data shuts off every due date (Boost) topic

So last month, on my bill's due date (the 10th), my data (3G and 2G) completely shut off for almost a whole day (not voice, not SMS). Nothing would turn it back on, until it came back on its own. Now it's the 10th again and I've had no data all day. I am flashed over a Sanyo Incognito. So I try to call Boost and tell them the situation. They want me to call back from a different number because they insist that I exhaust every single option, as though I don't know how to troubleshoot my own phone. I call back from my phone again, and ask for a profile update (I have tried manually, it is impossible over wifi). She tells me she can't do anything, until I am talking to her on another phone. I ask her again nicely "can't you just force a profile update right now, or after I hang up?" she responds"...no, I can't".

So it looks like my only option is flashing a stock ROM, entering DIAG, and re-programming cellular data (I am not even sure this will fix it, the problem seems to be on their side). Any other thoughts, that could perhaps make my life easier? I would greatly appreciate it.

[Q] Strange date in CWM recovery topic

Why does my CWM think the year is 1970? Can I change it? Back on my Galaxy Nexus, the date was right.

date & time settings opens during a call topic

am i the only one that ends a call with the "date and time settings" screen open?

apparently, the notification's screen opens during the call (with my cheek or somehow) and the clock on the top left side get touched which opens the "date and time settings" screen...very annoying !

[Q] Date on revocery mode topic

Hi,

I wanted to know, what the date on recovery mode signifies ?

Is it the date when the phone was manufactured or unlocked ?

Thanks

[Q] Date and Time Change? topic

Hello all, if this has been asked before I apologize, but I have thumbed through these forums for quite a while now and to no avail via Google searching I think I probably already have my answer but here goes anyway. I own the 2013 Kindle Fire HD 7". The one with 8GB storage and firmware 11.3.1 right out of the box. As per the root instructions in a different thread I was able to successfully root the thing. I understand there are no custom ROM's yet; however, has anyone here figured out a method of manually changing the date and time? I would very much like to do this for a few games I play. Yes I know this is a cheating method, but I suppose it bothers me I have virtually no customization options for the later model kindles. I'm debating about returning it to Amazon and perhaps upgrading to a Nexus 7. If anyone has the answer though to the date and time fix, I am all ears. Thanks

[Q] Gmail - Out of date sync that won't update topic

I'm on CM 4.4.2 and I've had this issue a few times now. My Google account syncs properly except for Gmail which is "stuck" in an out of date sync. No matter what I do, Gmail refuses to update itself. This results in not getting new mail notifications, and not being able to see any new email since the last sync.

Things I've tried:

• Rebooting
  Clearing Gmail cache
  Clearing Gmail app data + cache
  Forcing a resync in Settings > accounts

This is what it looks like, you can see here 1 minute before the screenshot I forced a resync of my Google account, everything updates fine except for Gmail which is stuck on 2014-01-20.



After clearing app data + cache, Gmail is stuck on this screen:



The only way to workaround the issue is to remove my entire Google account and set it back up again on the device. This is not ideal, and the issue comes back at some point again.

That's reasonable, but given that, it's weird that date(2014, 1, 23) ==
datetime(2014, 1, 23) is False. You would think it should be True, in
the same way that 1 + 0j == 1 is True.
