-I need help because my Samsung Galaxy S4 SPH-l720 is almost completely wiped. I have no system files on there i have a custom recovery but I can't boot into OS because there is no Os on there I need to know how i can put a OS on there. However my phone won't connect to my computer so i can't just drag and drop a Zip file on there. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

edit: Turns out i just needed to use different firmware type duh :P

Make sure once you Odin flash the full firmware do a full wipe factory reset using recovery . I ran into my phone hanging in yellow screen after flashing stock. After wipe it was all good.

Rooting you need: cfautoroot 1.85, updatesupersu1.65.zip and penguins oudhs cwm recovery.

1. Flash cfautoroot via Odin and let it run its course.

2. Flash cwm recovery via Odin

3. Make sure updatesupersu1.65.zip in ext.sdcard. flash via cwm recovery

4. Go to market and update super su then open and it will prompt to update files. Voila...

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Lawq:
I turned off the system sound all together.

Press on the volume buttom (up or down), then the "gear" icon. Turn the "system" sound all the way down.

Yeah did that as well but I want the notification for emails. There must be a way.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Lawq:
Go to Setting > Device > Sound > Volume

There should be 3 slide bar, "Music, video...", "Notification" and "System"

Slide the "System" bar to zero while leaving the "Notification" bar at your desire volume.

That should solve the issue.

That works thanks better. But there must be a way to turn off this individual sound.

[Moto X Q&A] GreenMunky:
I received my VZW Moto X in the mail yesterday and played with it most of the day before accepting the Kit Kat OTA.

I can't help but notice the change in the digital clock widget... I really liked the bold hour with the thin minutes... any way to get that back without resorting to another app like HD Widgets?

Also, I'm coming from a GS3 and was able to hide apps from displaying in the app drawer on my old phone, which I can't seem to be able to do on my Moto X... is that a Samsung/Touchwiz feature? I ask because I have a couple paid apps with unlock key apps that I got used to not having to see.

I also notice the lack of Developer Options at the bottom of the Settings menu... is that because I'm on VZW?

These are really just minor annoyances and not major problems, but any help would be appreciated.
[Moto X Q&A] racer83l:
to enable developer options..

go into settings, scroll to bottom select About Phone..

Then scroll to the bottom and press the build number repeatedly until the developer countdown finishes. voila! you have developer options.

Sorry, I cannot help you with the other things.
[Moto X Q&A] j.bruha:
It would be complicated, but you could side load an older APK of deskclockgoogle.apk from a 4.2 ROM and disable the preinstalled version. Some additional tweaks might be required. Alternatively, the Chronus app that's available in the market looks identical and lets you customize a ton more.

Check those unlock key apps to see if they give you a native option to hide the icons from the launcher. Otherwise, you can use a custom launcher like Nova to hide the apps you don't want to see.
[Moto X Q&A] GreenMunky:
I tried Chronus but for some reason I can't add the widget to the home screen, it just doesn't show up on the widget menu. I can add it to my lock screen, just not my home screen. Is it a 4.4 compatibility issue maybe?

Edit: Never mind... For some reason it's available in the widget menu now... Weird.

It's been a while since its release and I am certain that you (all of you) are as fed up as I am about the non existence of a true SMS app for this tablet. Yes, Google+ and Hangout and some obscure other providers give you limited SMS ability and What'sApp doesn't work but Tango ... etc.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jab0321:
I have Straight Talk with a T Mobile SIM in my Nexus 5 and I am getting awesome LTE coverage, although my friend has the exact same setup and is only getting H data and not LTE. We are both using the same APN settings, and the only difference that I can think of is that I bought my SIM card more recently. I didn't think that the T Mobile SIMs on Straight Talk supported LTE, but I am definitely getting it and was wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same. If you are getting LTE, what are your APN settings?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ketjr81:
I thought ATT was the only one you could get LTE through on Straight talk, Tmobile is the 4G speeds but HSPA+.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jab0321:
That's what I thought, but I am definitely on Straight Talk with a T Mobile sim and am getting LTE data. Not just in my area either, since I recently took a trip and had LTE coverage in many major cities.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m0nk89:
I can confirm that the new ST T-Mobile SIM cards support LTE. Received my new SIM one week ago and have been enjoying LTE speeds for the past week. Interestingly, the color of the SIM card was hot pink as opposed to the light pink T-Mobile SIM I used to have.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jab0321:
Right on, will have to tell my friend to order a new Sim then!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDAcat62:
Thanks for this. I tried to contact useless Straight Talk support regarding this question. They didn't seem to understand it, sent me the at&t APN settings, when I called them on it, they sent me the non-smartphone APN settings. They said that yes, t-mobile does support LTE, not just H+ (but I didn't actually trust them to understand the question), however said nothing about needing a new sim card. I have the light pink sim right now.

However I'm still not entirely convinced. Here's a picture on ebay of what I assume is the new hot pink sim:

http://i.ebayimg.com/t/Straight-Talk-Micro-SIM-Card-T-Mobile-Network-/00/s/MTYwMFgxMjAw/z/b7gAAOxy3zNSlQHw/$_57.JPG

You can see clearly on the card that it admits "4g" is HSPA+, not LTE. I'm also suspicious because T-Mobile has a different APN setting for LTE, while Straight Talk does not. Has anyone checked the "Mobile Network Type" in settings to verify that you really truly are getting LTE? Could the hot pink be because it's in micro sim size? The at&t cards have a similar color scheme (light blue for full sized sim, dark blue for micro), and I think offering the Micro Sim size for t-mobile is new, but the internals of the sim may not be.

Can someone post a speedtest speeds result of their "LTE" speeds? My H+ speeds are very fast, so I don't know if there'll be much difference..

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDAcat62:
Please update us. From what I can understand it seems like they're only advertising "4g" as the H+ speeds.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucd:

So best place to get SIM card to insure i get LTE for tmobile?

thank you,

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edd247:
I ordered mine directly from the straight talk website but I think you can order one from Walmart
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zandeer:
Just curious if anyone here has been cutoff by straight talk. I read the small print, and you are only unlimited on their web space. So technically they can cut you off if you use too much data.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imablackhat:
Its unlimited 2.5gb LTE. Then they throttle you down.. Maybe if you blew threw all your 2.5gb in five minutes by downloading a torrented movie they'd shut you off. All your data in less then a day.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucd:
Ok cool. So as long as i order it from straight talk, i should get the LTE card? I need to order two and wanted to make sure before i do it.

Currently have the older card and i'm not getting LTE on TMobile. After reading through this thead, sounds like the newer cards will do it.

thank you,

Yeah if you order it from them you should get the newest sim cards.

Thank you. My s4 is rooted. I *think* that I have solved my issue. I was able to get it to go into Odin mode power+vol down. I didn't connect to a computer (am at work and all of my android tools are at home). I just cancelled out of Odin mode and it booted up just fine. Now I tried to go into recovery again and got the same error as above and was able to get out of it the same way. I was able to go into ROM manager and flash regular non-touch CWM recovery and was able to boot to it without issue.

I suspect that my flash of the touch via terminal emulator didn't work right. Can anyone who has done it this way let me know how long the flash should take? I was at the su prompt and entered the dd line above (copy and pasted to avoid typos). It appeared to do something...there were some numbers maybe 5 or 6 per line and then it went back to the prompt so thought it was done. This didn't take it more than about 15 seconds to do. What should I see here?

I know that I can just flash it via ROM manager but wanted to be able to do it myself without rom manager and also be able to flash the latest twrp img if I want to (goo.im seems broken at the moment). Maybe I will try to do it via Odin later.

TIA.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] winapp2:
Hi! I'm really sorry to revive such an ancient thread but I've a similar problem.

I tried to use the dd command to update TWRP and wound up at this spot, but I was running a custom 5.1.1 system (jflte dev something or other from oct 2014 - recovery needed to be updated in order to install 7.1.1). So I tried to ODIN back to the old bootloader because I read it may have just become locked again, and now the system seems broken or missing, I'm not sure which. Phone no longer boots into the system and I get this error at recovery, so I'm hoping that if I flash an older factory image onto the phone, it'll restore it.

My question is, if I flash a stock image onto the phone, will it overwrite the bootloader and make my custom recovery dreams impossible? I went as far as to transplant the insides of this phone into a replacement when it first broke to maintain my MDK bootloader, so I'm really hoping I didn't **** myself here.

----

Edit:

So I've fixed my phone! The whole ordeal wasn't too too bad, but it was somewhat time consuming and difficult to divine on my own.

Now, I realize now I may have actually flashed the wrong .img file, which may have caused this whole issue. I'm actually not certain, because through the method that I fixed this problem with, I was able to flash what I would later find out was an incorrect .img for the recovery (jfltexx instead of jfltevzw ) but it did work properly, and I only found out when I got an error on trying to install the LineageOS zip.

I tried a bunch of things, but the one that worked was converting a twrp .img file to a .lok (loki) file. At the time of this writing, it happens that there's a bug in the latest twrp version that also prevents you from installing the system, but downgrading back to an older version will work, and I assume after 3.1.2 the bug will be fixed.

In order to do this, I wiped the system back to an MDK 4.2.2 system image I found here: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2301259

(dead link? Here's an archive: https://archive.is/LDnaY - I hit a bunch of dead links when I was figuring this process out and it was frustrating)

which preserved the mdk bootloader (because flashing anything newer than this will lock the bootloader, I've been told. I didn't dare try.)

I rooted that image by downgrading to the prerelease kernel and using motochopper to root, then upgraded back to the mdk kernel.

Then I grabbed the loki_tool from this thread:

https://xdaforums.com/lg-g2/general/guide-how-to-flash-cwm-6-0-4-4-lokitool-t2813514

(Dead link? Here's an archive: https://archive.is/F7k29 )

and used a twrp .img file to create the recovery.lok file

Flashing through this method restored my custom recovery, and also made the samsung unlocked padlock bootscreen go away (I miss it already!). Having Android 7.1.2 on this phone is quite a treat though! :)

Hope that anyone else who winds up here in the future finds this useful! And I hope those links
