[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Absolon:
I got my new phone yesterday after I threw my old one in a wall a couple of times...

Since I9505 are not in sale anymore I got an I9506 instead. Should that be yet another thread here for it?

If you look at the comparison: GSMArena

Snapdragon 600 --> 800

Krait 300 --> 400 (2.5 Mhz)

Adreno 320 --> 330

It's an S4 on steroids.

Antutu with everything out of the box gives: 34390 which is "in pair" with the Note 3.

Haven't rooted it yet so I don't know the speed on the special kernels here.

Own forum or coexist with the i9505?

It is quite substantial changes so a new sub-forum would be logical? And I guess that is the one that will be pushed?

And that brings me to yet another question:

I know you have carrier-branded phones in USA and each has it's own forum, but do they differ that much between each other?

Right now we have one for each and some fix and tricks get easily lost because it's in the "Verizon" forum and not here but it works just splendid on all the S4's?

So my question is, do they really differ that much that we can't keep them all under this forum for ALL S4-versions?

Yes, a bit more sub-forums here, but compare that to the main thread and we all have a scroll wheel on the mouse right? :)

How do they differ? Are they so substantially different that they warrant their own forum completely? I mean, they are all S4, right?

Please educate me from my communistic country where they only sell unlocked mobiles ;)

[Java for Android App Development] evermeire:
Anyone know if you detect when another app becomes the default SMS app within Android 4.4 (KitKat)? The only solution I have figured out, would be to check if my app is the default SMS app as often as possible (i.e. app load, user actions, etc). It would be interesting to have a custom service running that is listening for a change event (if one exists) for the SMS default app change.

For more background on the KitKat 4.4 SMS changes, read the official Android blog:

android-developers.blogspot.com/2013/10/getting-your-sms-apps-ready-for-kitkat.html

Android handles the presentation of the activity which appears when the following code fires:

Intent i = new Intent(Telephony.Sms.Intents.ACTION_CHANGE_DEFAULT);
i.putExtra(Telephony.Sms.Intents.EXTRA_PACKAGE_NAME, myPackageName);
startActivity(intent);

If you have KitKat running on your device, you can install the simple test app I created, which demonstrates changing the default SMS app on Android 4.4

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] the_jest:
I'm relatively new to all this, but have been trying hard to read as much as possible about the process. I have a new ATT Galaxy S4 (regular, not Active or Zoom) that I want to root and install CyanogenMod on. The phone is an SGH-1337, running Android 4.2.2, and the baseband version is 1337UCUAMF3. I'm running Debian, and occasionally have access to an OS X machine but never easily to Windows.

I have tried to follow all of the main pinned advice threads here. But according to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42320414&postcount=2 it seems like I simply can't root my phone. There are two options to root; the first one (despite the fact that this is the pinned post for this method) has been deleted, and the second one only works on Windows.

Am I missing something, or do I have to wait, or try to get on a Windows machine, or something?

Thanks.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caboose127:
I flashed the ROM in recovery. I thought I was S-OFF but am S-ON. It gave me error code 7 and the installation failed. Now I can't even boot into recovery (it just cycles between the HTC splash screen and then tries booting into recovery for a second. I see the recovery logo and then it reboots).

Holding down the volume down and power buttons I can get into HBOOT, but can't do a factory reset or recovery from there. I can get into the FASTBOOT menu, but my computer just tells me that the device connected has malfunctioned and can't recognize it. running "ADB Devices" returns with no devices found.

I downloaded and ran the RUU, but it can't find the phone. I'm out of ideas. I appreciate any help you guys can offer.

I'm willing to help.. but I am very busy.. can I have a look into this a bit later? Maybe someone else is going to be able to help you.. but if there isn't... I'm going to help you.

To calm down: As long as you can get into your hboot, everything is fine! You are not hardbricked!

Let me know if that's ok for you.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caboose127:
Hey, as long as you're willing to help, I can wait. I'm at work for the next 6 hours and don't really NEED my phone until I get off. So I've got time to wait.

Thanks.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LibertyMarine:
Hmm.. in 3 hours I'm going to sleep.. (Switzerland time zone) And so I write some basic thing that you can test and try out.. so that we can determine what the best steps will be.

First: Give me the output from that command(while in fastboot-ubs):

Second:

What hboot version do you have? 1.44/1.54/1.55

What's the stock ROM you recieved with the factory fresh phone? z.zz.XXX.z now.. what was the XXX number exactly? The international edition for example is: 1.24.401.7 I only need the 3-digit number.

Third:

Unlocked or Locked/Relocked?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caboose127:
The phone is unlocked, HBOOT version is 1.44

running fastboot getvar all yields "waiting for device" Windows doesn't recognize the phone when it's plugged in. I know I have the correct drivers installed. When it tries to boot into recovery, I briefly see the device show up in Device Manager, but it disappears again. I don't know what the stock ROM was that came with the phone. I want to say it was 1.27.531.8, but I don't know for sure.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LibertyMarine:
Are you in the fastboot mode? I mean you booted your phone into the bootloader.. then you chose "fastboot" and after this there's written "FASTBOOT USB"? and then you got this waiting for device? because simply being in hboot doesn't allow you to use fastboot commands. Sorry if this is a noob question.. but if your device wasn't recognized.. this would be f***ing difficult to get anything running again. This bug with the recovery.. hmmm... don't boot into recovery again.. recovery is connected to adb not fastboot... and to calm down.. here we have a RUU to get back stock(don't use it right now):

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Caboose127:
I would flash a new recovery, but my computer doesn't seem to be recognizing my device. It does for a second during boot into recovery, but once the recovery crashes and the phone resets, the phone disappears from device manager. It doesn't show backup when I'm in FASTBOOT USB.

I'm going to try it on a coworkers computer.

Progress! I was able to get fastboot working on my coworkers computer: Here's the gitvar results:

The phone shows up in Device Manager when I'm in FASTBOOT USB, but not when I'm in HBOOT. I still can't do anything with ADB.

I was able to flash a new recovery with FASTBOOT, but that recovery crashed as well.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desiredrive:
If you are still trying for your computer to recognize the adb device and still hasn't then just buy an USB OTG then put an USB to flash a rom from there.

adb commands won't work while in fastboot mode/bootloader. fastboot needs to be used while in fastboot mode. While your in fastboot, try

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] jhembach:
Hi all,

I'm running 1.12.00 WWE after upgrade from O2's German firmware, and all was good. I also gave the new BCHS bluetooth patch a try, didn't seem to have any benefits though.

My problem is that the bluetooth setup in my software looks different from that detailed in all the online help documentation, so I can't follow the instructions to set up activesync via bluetooth.

In 'Settings', I have a 'Bluetooth Setting' item, which in turn has a 'Press Start to setup' activesync option, but all that does is ask me to start bonding with other bluetooth device which supports serial port or activesync profile as your activesync partner.

I can't get past that, as my phone is already paired with my laptop.

Any suggestions on how I can either get this to work as-is, or what I need to do to get the neccessary bluetooth settings software back on the Magician?

Thanks!!

well its not really a custom rom, just a 4.3 with cherry picked apps themes from kit-kat and custom kernel.

no OTA . but no use for update when 4.4 custom roms are close to be bug free. in my opinion.

Yeah but it could be more similar to 4.4 by working on kernel and visual features

Hi there i am new to xda ,so please cope with me for the time being

For the past few days i am using Legacy Xperia 10.1 rom which is one great cynagen mod for my xperia mini

but there are some issue i found out ,there are as follow

1)Bluetooth not working

2)Restarts anytime for eg :installing app or exiting any app

3)freezes while playing games which work perfectly on stock rom(e:g temple run 2,nfs most wanted,shadow fight )

4)speaker volume is very low at low volumes,high volumes are also not very high

5)cannot exit games using back capacitive button

Folllowing are the changes i expect in the future upadte

You shold allow users to integrate any external apps into the os(on stock rom which is possible with link2 sd)

allow to remove system apps

Many unwanted ringtones & sounds

please integrate xbooster app into the rom which increases the speed of the rom

please remove pico tts app since google text to sppech is better

please add some themes

i cant set wallpapers horizontally(it gets divided into 5 parts,it should be single)

cannot install romtoolbox-gives parse error

Modders,

I recently brought an ALPS i5 (fake iPhone 5) from Malaysia. I mistakenly flashed a Goophone ROM on this device and now I have a blank white screen (back lit) if I try to power on or enter recovery mode. SP Tool does not detect it..there is no system buzz indicating device is connected..nothing...

All my MTK drivers are correctly installed (I tried another MTK device) but it seems like the PC is not detecting my phone.

What do I do?

As the title says, I am asking whether i can use cyanogenmod installer via play store to unlock bootloader.

So i am asking if I used cyanogenmod installer to unlock the device and then unroot by myself. After then can i install other custom roms just by flashing them?

Split View​

Ported from the LG G-Flex by me.:cool:

Disable any Xposed module before flashing. Flash in recovery and reboot. I have allowed all apps in Split View , though some may not work properly if at all.

To initiate Split View, hold back button for about a second. The rest is self explanatory.

Download the latest G2 Xposed beta that works with Split View. Thanks to BlackDino

https://drive.google.com/#folders/0B1DkkdNkAnSIODlteFFKTEtBZm8

Then go into help, click "SplitView mod is not working", enable it, set your longpress to launch SplitView.

BUGS:

You may find that posting pics or uploading through Tapatalk , Hangouts will be broken.( You can post to Hangouts by selecting image using a file manager)

Opening Tapatalk notification will cause a FC

To fix the posting of pic or to just turn off Split View use a file explorer and delete this line or change it from true to false "ro.lge.capp_splitwindow=true" and reboot.

Uninstalling apps that can be used in Split View may cause a FC of Split View Services

For now to deal with this FC you must hold your power button until your phone reboots. :o
