samsung galaxy victory

I started this post in the "OTA Update L300VPBND4" thread, but decided to move it to it's own thread because I'd gotten so far off topic. The purpose was to set up a blank Victory with Sprintorious and the latest broadband modem update. I'm posting this so others who attempt to do the same in...

In the pinned thread Rooting for Newbies, the links in the second post for stock ROMs hosted at waywardpilgrim.net are dead (domain up for sale). Neither Google nor filewatcher.com are getting me anywhere. Does anybody have these and can re-post them, please? Not planning on selling my...

Has anyone else gotten a notice for new system update? If so does anyone know what it's for?

You must currently be on MC1 and have the stock apps installed for this update to work. I've remove the ro.secure check so rooted users can install this and I've removed the updater for the recovery partition so you don't lose your TWRP/ClockworkMod/etc install. If anyone needs a version with...

Looks like Sprint has sent a new system update for those on stock (unrooted or rooted)? Anyone got it and what is it?

Most of my family is on iphones and trust me I have no desire to switch to an iphone. A few of them communicate by Facetime. Most specifically my 6 year old niece. I though when I bought my Samsung Victory with front facing camera that Facetime was something I was able to do. But when I...

Hi everyone, please have mercy on this noob. :confused: I've only had my Victory for a week and was happy with it until I accidentally clicked to install the Virgin Mobile Essentials and it messed up everything I had set up. :mad: In a fit of rage I tried to root without fully researching and...

Not interested anymore.

The thing where you swipe down from the top of the screen where it gives you the option to turn wifi, Bluetooth, etc. on or off. I know there's somewhere on this phone I can edit what those options are. Where is it?

We are switching to Google Mail for Business at work and as such the Google Apps Device Policy app (which is needed to access my work email and calendar) requires that the device be encrypted. My question is has anyone here encrypted their Samsung Galaxy Victory phone and if so have you...

Seems that APN settings are back in hangouts(or maybe I just didn't notice before). Anyone know the APN settings that I need for virgin mobile? I need it for MMS. Thanks in advance for any help!

So I'm rooted and on sprint with the aosp rom running and with a little of xposed installed here and there. It was working just fine for many months since root and many months since installation of xposed framework/modules. Today, however, it just all of the sudden turned off at around 60%...

This is not my first issue with MMS on this phone. I'm rooted and running Victorious. I don't like the stock messaging app so I use 8sms. In the past, I couldn't get MMS to work unless I told 8sms to use Sprint's APN instead of VM's. That's another reason I didn't use the stock messaging app...

Hey guys. I know this dosent really fit the topic page, but im having lots of trouble with this stock rooted rom. A few weeks ago, I restored from a nandroid backup, and something weird happened. I never got the vm splash (this was stock) so I was confused. I still got service and all, but in...

Anybody else have this issue? I just flashed back to stock recovery to alleviate the annoying as crap "Install Update" notifications that I get every 10 minutes, and now the updater is stuck at the "rebooting now" status. I've cleared my cache, and now I'm without a clue. Any advice is...

I was able to wirelessly tether internet to another device before rooting. Now I can't and any tethering app I try to download the phone keeps saying there's insufficient memory (even for TrevE mod). But any other app it will download it fine. The phone is rooted but I kept the stock rom and I...

Does anyone know how to move apps or install them to the sd card on the victory? I have tried to find guides after guides, but non of them work for the victory. Is it limited by the hardware? It's so hard as the internal is sooo tiny.... Even when installing the apk directly from the sd...

I need some advice...I rooted this phone yesterday using the instructions here. The rooting freed up a lot of space and the phone runs much better. I used Link2Sd to link apps (not move them) to SD card. I ended up with 900 MB of free space. I ran a back up through the Teamwin recovery last...

Here's a link to the Origingal OTA zip if anyone wants to pick it apart or just to learn the structure of android. cb2c93fe9c01d8369008d498d76ddbcc966cf746.update_SPH-L300_MC1_to_MG5 BadBrainsEddie

I am trying to get my hands on an S-Voice APK at the moment... I rooted my phone and put a custom RoM on it, but never backed up the old one. (hated the stock rom)... although, s-voice was great... It never misunderstood me... I tried google talk (HAAAAA.. shit sucks) and dragon, which dragon...

Apparently the stock rom doesn't support link2sd and I'm running out of internal space. I read a thread about init.d to swap internal for external storage but it's loosely explained plus the OP asked if it would work for stock ROM and nobody answered to that. Or any other idea that does...

I just rooted my galaxy victory and kept the stock rom. Is it ok to do the settings/system update/update (firmware. software etc.) ? Thank you!

Just wondering if anyone tried twrp 2.7.0.1 on the virgin victory yet. There is only a sprint .img on their sight, but I'm pretty sure that 2.6.3.0 was for goghspr and I'm using it now and it works. I made a zip to flash it but I can't get to Odin right now to go back if it doesn't work. (I...

Hey now Everybody, I have 3 Galaxy Victory's and was curious if anyone would like to use one for Development purposes. I really only need two (One for daily use/One for flashing). It's getting way to confusing with 3 of them. Please let me know and if so pm me to gather some info. Yeah you...
