samsung galaxy victory

Well, I also keep getting the OTA notifications. I have seen the numerous threads on trying to figure out how to stop it. That gives me a little pause about un-rooting my phone to do the update. The biggest reason I am rooted, is to use the Trev_E mod for tethering. I am also experiencing...

I will just start by saying I have ZERO time with smart phones, I think I had one 5 years ago but never did anything with it. Other then that I never really needed/wanted a smartphone. I love modding my PC instead. Due to career shifts, I am buying a phone. I just ordered the Victory because...

I used the towelroot apk to root my new Samsung Galaxy Victory (Virgin Mobile), and everything worked well. I wanted to create a recovery image, so I used Odin to try and flash a CWM recovery to the phone, but after the restart my phone became unusable. The Samsung logo will display, but...

I've been using the Victory for over a year now with zero problems... within the last week or so, the phone constantly wakes from sleeping and turns the screen on, which drains the battery very fast all day and night. The phone just sits idle and the screen just pops on, i have it on a 30...

Hello all, I've lurked on these forums for quite awhile but I registered because I need some help. The battery in my Samsung GV (sprint) expanded and damaged my screen, my problem is that my phone is rooted and I can't send it in for an in-warranty repair until I restore the stock firmware...

Just a quick post to let you guys know that Ive been bumped up to Guide. I know I already try to guide as best I can but if there is anything I can do to help, I can now officially do so. PM's are welcome. I can now do things like sticky threads or move them if need be. And so much more! (full...

My wifi radio keeps turning it's self back on after I turn it off. It's always done this as far as I can remember. I've got the sprint phone with freedompop as my carrier. I've disabled the sprint connections optimizer. I actually thought it might be the freedompop messaging app though I tried...

Hey guys. I have noticed lately all previous attempts to bring Cyanogenmod to this phone have been dead for roughly a year. I thought I should take it into my own hands. This build is still in alpha, and the first build may take a while to become bootable. Once school starts, the deving will...

PLEASE!!!!!!!!! I am begging!!! I can't take this update notification every day. I cannot install the update because I am rooted. I have stock everything, just rooted with twrp. Stock EVERYTHING. MG5. I tried the mg5_to_nd4_twrp update from madbot but it fails with an "E:unknown file system...

I can't find the setting on my phone where I can switch to Google Keyboard? I have Google Keyboard on my phone, but I think the keyboard reverted back to the stock keyboard. Where is the setting in controls to make it use Google? This would be for Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE

Hello, I would like to ask a few questions. What are the basic differences between the Sprint Victory and the VM Victory? I have a Zact Victory which is pretty much just a Sprint Victory with Zact application installed. If you have the MSL you can actually go in a just turn off the Zact/Its...

I'm not a developer myself, so no idea how hard this might be, but have any of you guys looked into porting OmniROM over for the Galaxy Victory? From the looks of their website, they seem to be pretty friendly about the idea of new devices being added, so they might be willing to help out.

Lately I've been getting some low memory errors, particularly from the gallery application. "Not enough space, delete unnecessary items. such as downloaded software, pictures, videos and documents." My phone is currently running ND4, rooted and using links2SD to move as much as possible to an...

can someone please upload the stock kernel tar file or somehow direct me to where i can download it please. i believe that this is the solution to my touchscreen not working. thank you in advance!

I have a VM samsung galaxy victory that I have been using with VM for over a year. I am looking to decrease my data plan and found out about both Freedompop and Ting. Both of these seem to allow Sprint samsung galaxy victory phones with their service. I've looked at posts in different places and...

OK I have a rooted stock rom SGV. I have TWRP 2.6.3 and have the WiFi tether APK installed. Like most SGV users I have played around with Link2SD, App2SD. I no longer use these apps because I decided that I would just keep the bare minimum apps I need and remove the others. The problem I have...

Hey all, I know there are threads out there regarding this, and I feel like I've tried everything in them so maybe it's worth starting my own. I have 3 VM Galaxy Victory 4G phones I pay for, a while back used the odin method to root all of them. Few weeks ago this stupid update appeared...

Today I made the decision to buy the galaxy s5 on VM. That means goodbye to my victory and to the awesome people that helped out in this community. Thanks to all the devs and people who were around to help at all times. specifically; JerryScript MadBat TeachMe MoonKnightous G60 InsanelyCool...

I have a stock rooted Sprint Victory and I wanted to run the MC1 to ND4 zip, but I just remembered that my SD card took a crap a few months ago. So, at this point I have none of the files I originally placed on SD card to root or back ups I stored to the SD. When I boot into recovery I see all...

It was kind of fun, I think while it lasted. But I have taken the plunge full time to the Moto X (unlocked) and ported my number to the Magenta and love it. I bid thee farewell to this sub-forum. Might check in every now and then, but I do have a question, anyone have links so I can send my...

Hi all, I'm new to the forums and my Samsung Galaxy Victory. Long time user of Unix, OSX, Linux, and (unfortunately) Windows. I've recently abandoned iOS because it's too expensive and the KEEP on routinely discontinuing support for hardware that is still quite usable (the latest and last...

Does anyone have the Stock back up from G60 laying around they could share with me? Ill try to make this as short as possible... the Victory use to be my phone and i was running Victorious on it a while back (Still on MC1). So i eneded up giving my wife the phone right about the time...

My phone keeps popping up a screen telling me to "Configure Wifi Hotspot". This just started a few days ago. I don't know how or why. I am stock rooted with TWRP, so the update it keeps trying to do keeps failing and I can't stop that notification. Now I am getting this. Can't find any hotspot...

Anyone have a download link for Sprintorious? The one provided in the thread no long works.
