[General Questions and Answers] Android Pizza:
Hey again, apparently the stock recovery doesn't have an option to flash a ROM. Even if it did, I could not find the Jelly Bean stock ROM anywhere on the internet including Alcatel and AT&T's websites. I honestly don't think it was ever made for the AT&T branded version of this phone which would explain why mine came with Kit Kat. But the AT&T website erroneously lists it as having Jelly Bean with no available updates...

What would be my next move, sir?

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
No, I wasn't saying to try flash a ROM in stock recovery. I meant find your devices complete jelly bean official stock firmware. Do you know the build number of the jelly bean firmware for your device? Do some Google searches to see what the build number for the firmware is then do a search for the firmware to download then flash it through whatever flash tool is compatible with your device using your PC. You would have to flash a stock update in stock recovery but from what you're saying you are on KK which is what you normally would have updated with since your device was originally released with jelly bean, the factory applied the update instead so there aren't any updates for you to flash in stock recovery now. Is that your complete model number in your signature?
[General Questions and Answers] Android Pizza:
Yes, that's it right there. The Alcatel C1 or Alcatel 4015t (sometimes referred to as the Alcatel Pop C1).

I do know the build number of the Jelly Bean build. I'll do some more searching and report back with my findings.

Galaxy S5 bluetooth problems with 2010 Mazda 3

I have no problem connecting my Galaxy S5 to my 2010 Mazda 3's bluetooth, and all the functions work. But, the audio plays sped up with a higher pitch and it cuts out for a couple seconds about every 30 seconds. It's really annoying. I can connect to my bluetooth speaker in my house with no audio problems though.

I'm on a custom ROM on android 5.1. I've heard about people having these problems, but I can't find any thread with a decent discussion, or any solutions. Just scattered threads with like 2 posts.

Does anyone have a solution or can point me in the right direction?

to whom it may concern ,

on the s3 , downgrading will almost certainly get you a nice paperweight. and for samsung (at least the s3 ) isnt odin about as safe as you can get to obtain root ; or am i way off here [MENTION=5691352]N_psycho_PD_uh?[/MENTION] ?

p.s. not trying to butt-in. :D

"all i can really do , is stay out of my own way and let the will of heaven be done"
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
No, downgrading is more possible than you think, unless for example its a Verizon S3 i535 that has taken the 4.3 update, it has a locked bootloader that is locked down for good(for now anyway) those with the locked bootloader can only use Safestrap but they can't use AOSP, and they can't downgrade either, but some devices can safely be downgraded through Odin then rooted, for example my particular model, Straight Talk S3 SCH-S968C(Verizon i535 clone with i535 motherboard using d2vzw recoveries, ROMs and kernels with no alterations whatsoever) has two different firmware builds, they are identical but the newer version has the exact same version but has an updated kernel specifically designed to block the two exploits that worked on the previous version, but my device can be safely downgraded to the older firmware then rooted.

For the S3 variants CF auto root is the safest root as long as the CF auto root file they use is for that model of S3.
[General Questions and Answers] Android Pizza:
Okay, so I did a bit of Googling and this is literally all I could find. My phone is really obscure.

This thread seems a bit relevant:

http://xdaforums.com/android/general/alacatel-c1-4015-t2812147

The thread also linked this website which is the only place I could find a stock ROM/instructions on how to install it. Neither Alcatel nor AT&T had such a thing.

http://alcatel-popc1.blogspot.com/p/stock-rom-for-alcatel-pop-c1.html

I'm probably gonna follow the instructions from that blog, but I'd just like a second opinion before I do.

Edit: Requires installing a zip from sd card in recovery, an option which does not exist...

Edit 2: It's obviously telling the instructions for people with CWM installed, so this doesn't help me at all.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
The first link is to rooting and flashing custom recovery and ROMs, that's not what you are looking for.

That second link has a link for SP flash tool, there should be a stock ROM file that you flash through SP flash tool on PC.
[General Questions and Answers] Android Pizza:
Ah, didn't notice that, thanks. But if this is an unsigned backup, wouldn't it brick it? I'm don't think this phone has an unlocked bootloader.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If the files and tools exist then there are instructions with all the details you need to know if you search with the correct terms in Google. The right terms will narrow your search. Try "How to return to stock jelly bean (your device model)" or "How to downgrade (your model number) to stock jelly bean" then find a method that involves flashing the jelly bean firmware , if what you need exists then you should get some good search results then go through each link in the search results one by one and any sub-results that seem relevant, you should find what you are looking for.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Did you notice this link in that thread you linked, its for an upgrade tool for your device that has been used to get out of bootloop.

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Have you looked into ZRAM mods or swap enabled kernels for your device?

---------- Post added at 02:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:36 PM ----------

Has anything fixed your device yet?
[General Questions and Answers] Lughnasadh:
If its lag that you are concerned about, from what I understand, you'll always get the potential for lag or performance degradation when using swap to an external sd card, unless maybe if you use a Class 8 or better because SD cards are much slower than internal memory. If you use swap to your /data or /cache, performance might not take a hit, but there is a slight risk that bad blocks could build up in your nand memory and once that happens that space is gone forever.

With zram, you also have the potential for a performance hit because with the compression and decompression that occurs during paging the CPU has to work harder with increased CPU cycles, thus possibly offsetting any performance advantages by having more RAM.

But as [MENTION=5691352]N_psycho_PD_uh?[/MENTION] said, look for a kernel for your device that supports swap/zram (if it doesn't already) and try a mod/script/app to to enable it and get more RAM, but possibly at the expense of performance.

You can also try lowering your swappiness value or trying a smaller swap size to see if that helps.

Or if your problem is that you need more RAM because you are having backgrounds apps/services being killed, you can try adjusting your LMK values.

I haven't tried anything yet, I'm planning on using Alcatel's flash tool thing to downgrade.

Sent from my ALCATEL 4015T using Xparent Green Tapatalk 2
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Yes, there is also the chance of burning out your extsd with these mods, as suggested use a class 8 or higher card, I use a class 10. And yes you'll take a hit in performance but you may be able to use an optimized kernel or OC kernel that can be used with the ZRAM/swap to maybe gain some performance back, a kernel tweaker could maybe also be used with your kernel to optimize various values to fine tune everything for performance and stability. A little research and experimentation with those values may give you what you are looking for, just make sure you have everything backed up before you start tweaking your kernel if you go that route.
[General Questions and Answers] Paresh Kalinani:
So it's the help thread here! :p

Hey peeps, in confused whether I should buy a new phone or not. I have the Samsung Galaxy S3, rooted, running Android 5.1.1, stable, everything's working fine, I've been using it for about two years. Flashed almost every ROM and Kernel available for it on XDA, just so many countless ROMs, used the phone to it's fullest and it's like I made the money I have to buy it, really worth it (I got it in a discount offer :p).

Just out of nowhere this thought came up to my mind of buying a new phone. Checked the internet, decided it's going to be the OnePlus One (OnePlus Two will probably be available in India 4 weeks after it's VR launch, that'll be not good for me 'cause I want a phone in my vacation now and not when I'm living a hectic life with studies!).

:thumbdown: Some people there's no need to buy a new phone when this Galaxy S3 is still working. I should use it till it's dead or unusable.

:thumbup: And some scare saying it won't give me a good price afterwards. At the moment, someone's giving me ₹7,000/- for this S3. :sly:

SO, the confusion lies in whether to give it for 7,000 bucks (INR) and buy a new phone or wait till it's dead and then buy something new. .. .... ...? :confused:

Thanks in advance! :)

And if I should buy the OnePlus One now, tell me if anyone knows about an offer coming up for it for the 64GB version. I missed it two days ago when the Sandstone Black was being sold for ₹19,998/- ! :(

Hello. I have a question. Please tell me how to unlock bootloader. I tried to flash my phone using spflash tools while my phone Turned off (i guess it's not recommended to turn off) and the pc didn't detect my phone. Also i installed drivers properly but it only says that it didn't detect my phone while it was turned off.

Also in stock recovery : I tried also to flash an update and custom rom but it says "installation aborted " i think it was not signed by the manufacturer to install unknown custom updates.

Im just using a stock recovery cuz a cant flash because it was not being detected by the spflash tools.

Additional : can i use adb on system recovery to flash cwm recovery.? Im using a mtk6572 soc.

Thanks. (*´∇｀*)

I'm wanting to create a stock rooted Odin flashable tar for my device, I've researched how to make the tar, I've also found instructions for pulling factoryfs.img from stock using terminal emulator, should I pull factoryfs.img from my device while rooted stock and put it in place of the original factoryfs.img in the stock firmware md5 file that I've downloaded or should I extract the factoryfs.img from the firmware then extract that to get the system.img so that su and busybox binaries can be added and superSU and busybox apks then repack be everything back into .tar.md5? I've got guides to follow for editing the tar but not for how to correctly place the files for working root. This is my first time trying my own tar.md5 so any suggestions are appreciated.

Ive used stock rooted Odin flashable ROMs before on my S2 so I'm trying to emulate the process for my S3.
[General Questions and Answers] SLUDER4:
In my opinion, if your s3 is rooted, theres really no need to upgrade or change phones unless you want better quality or hardware. Now on the flip side, if you know you can root the new device you want, go for it. Everything will possibly be better tech wise amd you can even expand your possibilitys with the root. All depends on whats important to you as a consumer :)

[General Questions and Answers] User17745:
Mediateks don't usually come with locked bootloaders as far as I know but still you can unlock you bootloader if it's locked in fastboot mode using:

fastboot oem unlock

Just search a little on Fastboot commands and you'll be good to go.

(WARNING: If the bootloader is already unlocked then the command MIGHT brick the phone, so research well before trying anything.)

Guide on ADB and Fastboot:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2225405

As for the SPFlash tools, you need to switch off the phone, take it's battery out(if it's removable) and then carry out the process.

If the phone is not recognised by the tools then it's most probably a driver issue, I know from the little experience I've got. Also you might wanna check your USB cable and USB ports(don't use a USB hub, plug straight into the PC).

Here's a great guide on how your use SPFlash Tools:

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1982587

You can't flash any custom zips on stock recovery, you'll need to get a custom recovery like CWM to do so.

You can easily get CWM on your phone using MTKDroid Tools.

If yes, then try looking there for a ROM or if you still don't find any, ask the same question there because they would be more familiar with your device and would have more info about it.

2)

HTC Desire 820s

:- Slightly cheaper than the previous one and obviously with not much good specs than 826..

3)

Xiaomi Mi4

:- If u can go to company like Xiaomi, then Mi4 is also a good and much cheaper choice..

4)

Huawei Honor 6

:- Same as previous, if u can go to company like Huawei, then u can take a look at this also..

Sgy gt-s5360

DEVICE- SAMSUNG GALAXY Y GT-S5360

I tried to install ‘HYPERION X ROM’ over ‘HYPERION 9 ROM ‘.

And followed the steps posted by a guy in XDA Forum.

The steps were

1) Download ROM, kernel, CWM 5.0.2.8 (6.0.1.2 will not work here) and EXT4 formatter. Put them in the root folder of your sdcard.

2) Reboot to recovery.

3) Select "apply update from sdcard ".

4) Scroll down and select CWM 5.

5) Let CWM 5 temporarily overwrite your default recovery.

6) Select "Install zip from sdcard ", then "select zip from sdcard ".

7) Scroll down to find the EXT4 formatter.

8) Select the formatter and wait for your phone's partitions to be formatted to EXT4.

9) Scroll to find the CM kernel and install it.

10) Go back to main menu. Select "Advanced", then "Reboot Recovery".

11) CWM 5 should be your default recovery now. Go to "Mounts and Storage", and mount /system, /data and /cache.

12) Return to main menu, and select "Install zip from sdcard", then "select zip from sdcard".

13) Find your ROM zip and flash it.

Make sure that the duration taken is longer than a minute.

14) Reboot. First boot may take longer than usual.

PROBLEMS AFTER INSTALLATION:

Everything was running smooth.

But android market was not able to download the apps. It was showing an error “download not possible due to some error”.

I tried to install correct version of Gapps to remove that error but didn’t worked.

SOLUTION I FOUNDED:

After that I decided to install previous rom i.e. Hyperion 9 rom on my SGY.

I followed the correct steps and installation was successful.

PROBLEMS AGAIN:

The rom wasn’t changed. It was the same Hyperion X rom.

I don’t know the reason what was happened.

SO PLEASE HELP ME IN REMOVING THIS HYPERION X ROM.

Its just a risk waiting. Now its your money, do what you want :) but, trying to sell the s3 might be difficult because itll be more outdated. Much like trying to sell an s2 right now. If you want, you could trying to get a buyer ready before you buy the new one so your not sitting on it. Then you got money for the new one.

I upgraded from an s3 to an s4 because it broke and i can tell you it runs a lot smoother, even with just 200mb extra with ram.

You can also just wait til your s3 dies (backup of course) then buy a one generation back phone so theres already some development and mods for it :)
