I have never heard of this happening.

What application are you using that is disallowing you to access corporate email because of root?

Also, what server are they running that apparently has the ability to distinguish whether or not you have root?
[Nexus 5 General] es0tericcha0s:
Seems like something a security conscious company would and could do. There are other apps that can't work when you have root access such as certain All Share media apps, some cable company's apps, and some bank apps, just to name a few. There is an Xposed mod to hide root access (RootCloak, I believe), but not sure if it would work in this situation. But barring something like this, like a work phone, there are just way too many pros vs cons in the question of whether to root or not. I'm a tinkerer, which is why I have a Nexus and not an iPhone or Windows phone (or heck, even my last Sony Xperia ZL which had weak development - no offense to the few brave souls there). But I just can't understand not at least rooting and doing the Xposed framework, at a bare minimum, unless it's work related.

First time I am bone stock.

Original Nexus 5 was unlocked, rooted. With this RMA replacement I decided that since I like everything exactly the way it is and didn't use anything except BetterBatteryStats and Greenify when I rooted my first Nexus 5, that I wouldn't even touch it. There's no need because I'm happy with it out of the box.

Untouched - Locked/Not Rooted
[Nexus 5 General] --anx--:
Call me crazy, but I'm rooted only for the ability of changing the soft keys, keyboard graphics and other minor graphical changes...that's it.

No need for other things, just few graphics mods.

Stock ROM, stock kernel...everything stock.

First time I'm happy with a phone bone stock
[Nexus 5 General] Henrock11:
This. I haven't rooted and unlocked since the nexus 4. This phone is in my opinion perfect right out of the box.
[Nexus 5 General] es0tericcha0s:
I can't fathom not being able to think of something that could be improved on the phone - that it's "perfect". I honestly can't think of anything on the phone that isn't improvable - from the screen colors, to the battery life, to the camera, to settings for the nav bar (or get rid of it), sounds mods, the status bar, notification drawer, lockscreen, performance, looks, etc etc. Pretty much everything outside of your actual service - and even in some cases, there are improvements available for THAT - can be upgraded, updated, and/or personalized. Now, whether or not it's worth your time and effort to mod the phone, that's a completely different argument, but not being able to think of some room for improvement is just completely baffling to me.

There are definitely some disadvantages to rooting phone. Sky Go does not work on a rooted phone which is a pain and is the only reason I do not root. I would love to root but don't want to loose sky go.
[Nexus 5 General] es0tericcha0s:
Even with root hidden with RootCloak?
[Nexus 5 General] irhut:
Sky go does not work with rootcloak unfortunately.
[Nexus 5 General] move_over:
First android phone or tablet I haven't rooted, and no plans to yet (although that could always change ).
[Nexus 5 General] _jordan_:
All of my other devices have been rooted, yet I realized I only use root to make backups and use sdmaid to clean the device.

Now that android has fstrim, and my boot loader is locked, I don't need to constantly clean the device or make backups. My device is also pretty much but free.

I do miss that cm DSP manager tho. That thing is awesome.
[Nexus 5 General] es0tericcha0s:
What is Sky Go? I couldn't find much info on it. Is it a video streaming service? Couldn't see something like that affecting my decision to improve my phone the other 100 ways I do, but of course everyone has different wants and needs.
[Nexus 5 General] irhut:
Sky go allows me to watch UK sports channels on the go. I use it a lot.
[Nexus 5 General] es0tericcha0s:
Keep an eye out on this thread, as they are working on getting Sky Go going with RootCloak Plus + Cydia Substrate.

I haven't bothered, and this is my first Android. I'm finding less and less reason to the more I read about it, to be honest.
[Nexus 5 General] v3rsatile23:
Dsp manager is a must for me. I couldn't believe what difference an elite equalizer could make when I first heard it. I always ask my friends with stock roms how could they listen to music all regular like that and they all give me strange looks lol. I also love themes and theming, Better battery life is just a positive side effect from it all. It's all worth the risk to me.
[Nexus 5 General] es0tericcha0s:
Agreed, though I feel absolutely no risk when flashing. I actually feel less secure when I don't have a custom recovery installed. The only thing I couldn't fix is EMMC failure, and I've seen that happen to some who don't even do anything crazy to their phone.
[Nexus 5 General] 3DSammy:
You will get an even better audio experience using ViPER4Android. Check out the thread for ViPER4Android in the N5 themes and apps section. Make sure to follow the instructions to move the ViPER4Android apk into /system/priv-apps directory. That is a must for Android 4.4.2 devices.
[Nexus 5 General] es0tericcha0s:
Sounds like you aren't reading the right things. You can literally improve almost every aspect of the phone from sounds, looks, performance, battery life, camera, custom Google apps, and complete customizations of everything else from the lockscreen, notification drawer, home launcher, etc etc. if you care to put in a little effort. Mistakes are easy to fix, though depending on what mistake, it might take a bit of time. The way I look at it, is that I pay a crap load of $ for the phone (yes, it's a good deal but to me $350 is a good chunk of $$$) as well as a decent amount for my service. I want to get the most for my money. But hey, ignorance is bliss. If you are happy now, ride it out till you get bored, I guess.

I guess it's kind of like having a nicer faster car like, say, a Corvette. Sure it's amazing right off the lot, but nothing that exciting about it unless you push the accelerator past half way.
[Nexus 5 General] hotleadsingerguy:
Funny, because I know *many* companies that do it. Tech- and Software-focused companies almost all do it. Apple did it, Google does it, and mine does.

The application is called MobileIron (many companies use this), and the email app is TouchDown. MobileIron controls all of the stuff that the company requires, and TouchDown is a standard email app that can be controlled by applications like MobileIron.

Seriously, if you have never heard of companies doing this type of thing, then you don't work in the tech industry or in an industry or company run by people that know anything about technology.

[Nexus 5 General] LiquidSolstice:
You can't brick a Nexus unless you're really, really determined to do so.

You absolutely want to at least unlock it on day one, because the process of unlocking wipes everything. This includes /data, as well as ALL storage on the phone (any pictures/music/whatever you have on there).

You can always unlock the bootloader, and then just leave it completely stock unrooted. That way, if you want, later on down the line, you can root the phone or flash a custom ROM without losing any data.
[Nexus 5 General] Ober/Hydra:
Well that's a beautifully condescending reply. But really, no thanks as far as all that customization. Nova's given me all I need in terms of making my phone work the way I want to, and I'm fine with that much. We don't all have the time to mess around customizing our cell phones with funny pictures like we're teens or something.

Personally I find it kind of funny that people spend hours and hours customizing their phones to get five or ten percent more battery and then go loading all kinds of extra widgets and other junk on them, only to have the extra battery devoured by these meaningless extras.

If I want to push the accelerator, I can always get in my car. ;)
[Nexus 5 General] monkeypaws:
After years of tinkering with phones I've got to agree. I dontbhave time anymore. I have a family and a job. Books to read , and things to do outside. I remember I used to stay up so late , sometimes waking up the wife just because a dev posted a new Rom and I had to try it. I got tired of that fast. There's so many mote options now with nova, and plenty of icon sets, ability to disable apps, and non root apps to monitor usage, wakelocks, etc. Even just doing more than using your phone 24/7 saves on battery.

Hi I am using Galaxy Note 3 Canadian model (Bell) and noticed something interesting.

When I use 3G(LTE), Android OS does not do anything when idle. But when I use Wifi, I noticed it uploads and downloads something. I can see some data usage from 'Android OS'. So I did factory reset and it did not make any difference.

Anyone experiencing this issue ? It is very very annoying as battery is draining fast because of this stupid 'Android OS' thing

hello friends. I have a Note i717 At & t. with a problem that does not recognize the USB cable. mini port only works for me to change the battery. (nobody could sorting that problem) -

is there any way to access root without usb cable?

PS: I have the Stock 2.3.6

and thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
Not sure exactly what your asking.........3 possible questions out of this.

Computer does not recognize when phone is plugged in?.....need to re install drivers.

Trying to access root????? On phone? Is Superuser installed?

Remember also, when going into phone on computer, you need to right click to browse files.

Not sure if what your asking. Was my best guess from your english.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 440bro:
You MUST use a computer and usb cable to gain root!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lildark7:
I do not speak English. I apologize for that.

use google translator.

I checked that my port is Note. the load is not connected only by USB

I wanted was to root and then try to update the rom and put Cyanogenmod with Rom Manager. but I can not do root
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] captemo:
Not without computer no. Sorry
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] DrAzzy:
Before despairing, check:

* USB cable works for data (there exist "charging cables" - these will ONLY charge)

* Drivers installed on the computer being used and are known working.

I think the USB port on the note is kinda failure prone. My friend's note stopped charging after about 15 months (due to bad connector).

Worst case, you may have to replace the microusb port and associated board (It was a pretty easy replacement). Make sure you get the right one for your version of phone (i717 vs international/etc).

i am using LG Optimus G F180s KoreanVersion.

Just want to ask about Flashing Custom Recovery, Unlocking Bootloader, and Any Custom ROM for this kind of Smart Phone.

or any developer for LG Optimus G F180s korean??

please help me.

Flash e975 kdz

Flash f180 baseband

Root

Use freegee to unlock and cwm

Flash e975 roms
[LG Optimus G (International)] kt-Froggy:
In my experience, first two steps are not necessary. I rooted it straight from Korean stock ROM, unlocked BL with FreeGee, and flashed e975 ROM via CWM.
[LG Optimus G (International)] atifsh:
Absolutely not, but you will remain as f180 and have to delete the asserets line everytime you flash or update a rom, mod, recovery
[LG Optimus G (International)] kt-Froggy:
Hmm... I never had to do that. :) Like i said, I rooted and unlocked straight from F180, then flashed multiple e975 ROMs multiple times via CWM with no problems whatsoever. The device is always identified as E975. Didn't have to do anything extra. Just sharing my experience...
[LG Optimus G (International)] atifsh:
Hmm I'll try again confirm later, done same in early days of my device and it was f180 so i had to remove assert line every time.
[LG Optimus G (International)] kt-Froggy:
I guess it's just a more "proper" way to start with E975 kdz. I dunno, it looks like I took a shortcut and got lucky. :)
[LG Optimus G (International)] atifsh:
here you go

F180l 20S stock KDZ

rooted

freegee to unlock cwm

flash e975 cm10.2 and ..... error

you have to remove assert to fix this.
[LG Optimus G (International)] kt-Froggy:
Fair enough. I never tried installing any CM versions, though... Installed a couple of stock variants, and a new AOSP KitKat build by Houstonn. Also installed Philz CWM. All went well with no errors. Like I said, your method seems to be more safe in general...
[LG Optimus G (International)] Kur@:
You have to delete this string in Build.prop inside Rom before flashing.
[LG Optimus G (International)] randz27:
thaks guys for your help!.. i just use freegee, backing up EFS, unlock my bootloader, and flash CWM recovery.

thanks guys!! now i can flash custom rom. ^_^
[LG Optimus G (International)] atifsh:
no s h i t
[LG Optimus G (International)] davevinci:
EZ fix :) Use e975 recovery!

Assert line gets info from recovery.. So replace recovery that came from freegee with an e975 version

---------- Post added at 01:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 AM ----------

True.. Root. Unlock. Flash an e975 recovery like PhilzTouch. Flash any e975 ROm
[LG Optimus G (International)] kt-Froggy:
Ahh! That explains it. :) I have always used Philz (my favourite recovery on ALL devices, hands down), and never had a problem.

Tutorial needed for flashing stock eur rom

Hi there,

I have the Korean version of the Optimus G (F180s20n) and read about converting it to a european stock rom. I would very much do so, but can't make heads or tails from what I've read (although I have quite some experience in flashing the HTC HD2).

I was wondering if there is a step by step tutorial which describes everything in this thread?

Would very much appreciate it.

I was using Canvas 4 Rom ported to our device, I had the same problem. My battery back up till 30% is pretty good, but when it reaches 30% in 5 minutes it drains to 15%. I thought the problem is with that Rom. So I flashed the p.18 stock Rom. But the same problem persist.

Is anyone less having the same problem? If so then what is the solution for this problem? Kindly help me regarding this.
[Micromax A116] naveenreddybanka:
Naveen

Canvas 4 rom has no issues with the battery instead it gives very good backup. U try this.

Download battery caliberator from Playstore.

Charge the mobile till 100%

Open the App

click on battery caliberate

Once it clears all the battery stats remove the charger and drain the battery till 0 and then charge it fully i.e. 100%

and then use it.. It will solve ur battery issue
[Micromax A116] prasathlr:
I will try

I'll try that. No one has encountered such a problem before?
[Micromax A116] naveenreddybanka:
It happens with some of the Roms. Dont worry.. It is not flashing issue.. Even i faced these issues in Jellyxperia 5.5 rom . I changed it to MIUI rom by JavaJohn .. then no issues.. Many users faced this.:):):):):):)
[Micromax A116] Sk.D:
Every rom has these issue brother, even the miui rom also. There is no solution till now although some solution has been posted on fb but still no one yet confirmed it working.

And that battery calibration also doesn't work. It's problem With kernel thing. Correct me if m wrong anybody
[Micromax A116] naveenreddybanka:
\

No bro.. I used SGalaxy CHD 3.2 and Jellyxperia 4 . Now using MIUI by JavaJohn ... I didnot see these issues in following roms. If this issue with kernel then it should replicate these issues in above roms also.

Correct me IF i am wrong?
[Micromax A116] prasathlr:
Oh! that's pretty sad. Can you post the kernel version of Miui?

I have the same problem

Discharge from 30% to 15% in 10 mins and charging from 80% to 100% in 10 mins..

I have tried many custom ROMs and Stock ROMs with no luck

I have also tried calibrating multiple ways like calibrating when at 100% and discharge and tried calibrating from 35% and discharge..

No luck yet..

Anyone has better options to try

Thanks in advance
[Micromax A116] GroovyG:
It's just a software bug, when the phone show's you 100% it's not fully charged yet, but it says so.

Just leave it connected to the charger for another 30mins, then it'll actually be fully charged and you also won't encounter the 30-15% drop.
