[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] danroh:
Hello, I recently got my Galaxy S4 and I originally installed Cyanogenmod 10.2.

I loved it, it was great. While installing Snapchat, not sure if I miss pressed something.. and I ended up installing something else.

That "something else" turned out to be Cyanogenmod 11. For some reason, it upgraded... now my Call app is different.. battery status looks different... long story short, I hate it. I want to downgrade it.

Is there way to downgrade from 11 to 10.2 without wiping completely?

And if anyone know, what caused the auto update so I dont repeat this?

Thank you guys in advance!

-Dan

--Edit--

Oh and one more thing.. I remember Cyanogen in the past had this option in Settings > Lock Screen > Screen Security > "Show Widgets Before Unlock".

I noticed its no longer there, both on 10 and 11.

Before doing my "pattern unlock", it allowed me to choose the apps I wanted to access. THEN, it gave me the pattern unlock option. Afterwards, I was able to access whatever I have previously selected.

(If that makes sense...)

But now, it doesnt allow me to do this. I have to either choose "only lock screen option" or "pattern security". Cant do both.

Anyone know this as well? <3

Sorry for asking so much, been googling all day.. found couple links with similar problems, but no answers.

Again, thank you very much in advance.

Cheers!

Hi,

Can someone help me with this problem? I wrongly flashed FW for my Galaxy Note 1 N7000 using stock Samsung Galaxy S2 Jelly Bean FW 4.1.2.

The screen became blank but still responsive (I can hear the sound of unlocking the device). Manage to get into download mode (Volume Down - Home - Power and then push Volume Up).

Flash again using stock 4.1.2 Jelly Bean firmware for N7000 but the problem still occurred. Responsive but the screen still blank. May I know how to fix this problem? Thank you in advance for your kind help and suggestion.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SillySal:
Hello all,

Last night I was trying to install the latest Gummy release on my Verizon Galaxy S3. This was the first time I have tried to flash a rom on this phone. It failed, and I rebooted my phone, and now it will only boot into the clockwork recovery.

I thought it may have been damaged as i was transferring the file to the device. I had an SD card in my droid X, So I put it in my Galaxy and formatted it with clockwork. Then I transferred the gummy release (that I also re-downloaded) from my computer to the SD card via a memory card reader. I put it in my Galaxy and tried to install the release, and it gave me a different error

E: Can't Open /external_sd/Gummy-2.1-01-09-14-NIGHTLY-d2vzw.zip
(bad)
Installation aborted.

Edit: Tried a few other roms and they had the same issue, but Cyanogen Mod 10.2 worked. Anybody have any guesses why?

Edit2: Further developments, Trying to do the latest nightly fir the CM yields the same issue that Gummy's release gave me initially. It reports as follows:

E: Error in /external_sd/cm-11-20140110NIGHTLY-d2vzw.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted

Is there possibly a firmware issue at play?

Did u unlocked ur recovery. And if ur trying to flash a KITKAT rom u need the latest clockwork recovery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Cappurnikus:
I'm having this exact issue except I currently have TWRP 2.6.3. I wiped data, cache and internal and it actually booted the below ROM (the first boot) but once I got everything setup and rebooted the device it will not boot beyond recovery. It hangs on the Samsung boot logo. I've tried to restore to a 4.1.2 ROM as well as install 4.3 and 4.1.2 again multiple times but they will not boot. Any direction would be appreciated.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SillySal:
Sorry, forgot to mention, I did unlock with EZunlock. Would the clockwork on the play store be the latest one, or is there another place with more up to date versions?

Do you get the same error on install that I'm getting, ro are the installs finishing, but not booting?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Try goo manager or ez-recovery to install the latest recovery

right now i can think of

factory reset format data. Make sure u backup ur internal

Wen changing from rom to rom is a good thing to do a clean install

get the right gapps.

The 1st boot always takes time at least on me.

Sorry i cant think of more helpful things.. Been drinking

Looks like my recovery just needed an update. Thanks everyone.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thejiajielee:
hi,

i have a storage issue that i'll like to ask the gurus.. I've just moved from PSX's v8.5 (4.3) to PSX v3 (4.4) and along the way, I've made numerous backups just in case. after flashing v3 and hellscore b43, i ran into a storage space issue where my N4 told me i had insufficient space to install more apps, to work system functions, anything. Ive attached a screenshot of my storage, but it seems to be there is a good 5-6gb of space unaccounted for? i have v little songs in my phone, no movies, little apps as well. its rooted. can anyone point to as to how i can solve this?

thanks!

to add on, I've used storage analyser to better understand by storage, and it says i have 9.87gb available, whilte the stock storage details shows the number at 611mb.

help pls?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nigeldg:
I only just realised I was having the same issue when I got an insufficient storage available message while trying to update some apps. To solve it reboot into recovery then go on backup and restore and delete any unnecessary backups you have, if the ROM's working now then you could do with deleting all of the old backups and making one fresh one with the new ROM. Also do the 'free unused space' thing in CWM, I had no backups but somehow there was almost 3 gigs of space being wasted by CWM. There's probably something similar in TWRP if you use that
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehumble1:
You've got the right app. check your /data directory to see what's chewing up space. I bet it's TWRP or other stuff stored by your recovery manager.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alan-31:
Use this great app to check whats taking up space: Storage analyzer
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calypso888:
When u make full backups they won't show up in the system storage scan. Go to the file directly n try deleting an old backup. I guarantee u will see more space available after u do. Each backup is usually about 400-500mb depending on how many apps n other data u have
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arffrhn:
Or maybe you got shrinkage problem which is pretty normal when upgrading (seeing that you flashed 4.4.2 rom over 4.3 rom). Your 16gb nexus was shrinked to 8gb. The easiest way to fix it is by formatting your internal in recovery (or flash stock recovery and do factory reset). Do make backup of your things though cause you'll lose them.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gepol:
There are 2 reasons why I sold my wizard.

1. Stylus holder mechanism broke, with no actual solution given by HTC.

and mainly...

2. The sound quality was terrible. I used to get complaints during calls that they cannot hear me well, no matter how I fiddled with sound settings in the registry. I read that quite a few fellow users have this prob with the wizard.

I know some of you have both, or have experience from both.

Is Universal's sound quality better than the wizards, so I can proceed with a purchase?

Thanks :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] colonel:
I have had both. The wizard is a better phone as its more compact and there have been less problems with the bluetooth. However the universal is a far better PDA. The sound quality on the wizard should have been ok. The sound quality on the exec is OK, but you look silly holding it to your face

rgds
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gepol:
hmmm.. yes, I never thought of that. :)

Nevertheless, sound quality(especially microphone) is of main importance to me, since I talk a lot....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] thaihugo:
radio rom plays a great role in sound quality, and the wizard an duniversal have good radio version, depending on your operator and your test. Some might prefer one version or one other.

You should decide on other criteria:

-speed, vga, full keboard

or

-small, one handed
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gepol:
It's why I chose the wizard in the first place. But the damn phone's quality was a mess. I've seen Universal's quality and it's OK.

The sound is what I am worried about. Had the latest ROM.

BTW, I have this connection for over 4 years. No phone sounded that bad. Even now that I checked with my Nokia, the connection is OK and sounds loud and clear. Even with my old 6150.

rgrds
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] odyseus:
Reasons I didn't like the Wizard

(1) Small screen.

(2) A2DP didn't work.

(3) Slow speed.

(4) Mini SD more expensive than SD

(5) Audio socket 2.5mm - most earphones 3.5mm.

(6) Fiddly keyboard.

But at least it was compact?

The Universal doesn't have any of the above problems and has better battery life But it's bigger and heavier.

Basically if you really need the phone function go for the Wizard.

If you really want 3G, Internet & PDA and only use the phone occassionally go for the universal..

Cheers

John
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] gepol:
How's the sound in the universal? Can they hear you talking? Compared with a normal mobile phone? I don't care about size....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] kvborg:
gepol: maybe your's Wizard was with defekt.

have here 2 friends with wizard and one with universal, tested, sound in phone is comparable.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] raskal:
The wizard is for me more suitable than the universal. It's true, it is much more slower, but who cares. For my opinion, the wizard is the best PDA htc ever made. Small, compact and powerfull for its size.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] JohnH:
As a hold it to your ear phone it's fine, a few members (myself included) are having problems with the bluetooth audio on it (static). I'm getting used to pulling it out of a pocket, flipping the lid and picking up the call in <2s. For me it's invaluable - the following are examples of why:

1) Moved house - waiting for a cable modem to turn up, use Bluetooth to connect to PC and can send/receive email and surf the net

2) Server in the UK toppled over - remote desktop meant i could reboot it from a ferry

3) 3G is *so* much faster than GPRS that I can't imagine having to live without it, I can browse websites and download programs

4) Full-size keyboard & decent stylus let me take notes in meetings or sermon notes @ church quickly and unobtrusively

5) 3G and Internet, plus the usual obvious features working together (Calendar, Outlook), + WiFi let me run my office from anywhere, including the park down the road.

It's big, it's not amazingly heavy (still heavy though ;)) and it has all the features I need - if you need them too, get one now :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] celeadyne:
My Galaxy Nexus reboots a few seconds after starting up. I don't have anything other than stock installed and I've tried following several guides here trying to flash it myself since the built-in recovery mode wipe data/factory reset does nothing.

I did notice something strange which following a guide, when I oem unlock and reboot the fastboot mode it locks itself again like I didn't do anything at all. This was a problem when I was using the Android Toolkit too but I managed to over ride my own fastboot oem unlock commands in between its batch file commands and got to an error "FAIL Exceed Buffer Size"

I believe if I can fix or know what to do with that error I can successfully bring my phone back to factory defaults I just don't know what to do! I tried looking for the error on this forum and it came up with 0 results and google isn't helping much either.

I'd appreciate any help regarding this, even if it means my phone is beyond repair I just want to know!

Thanks guys!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pattyboi:):
best advice,flash back to stock,root the phone,and use bootunlock on your phone to unlock it,it wont wipe your data,then download a recovery.img and flash it with the flashify app,almost everything done with apps :) and no data loss.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] celeadyne:
I can't flash the phone to stock because of that FAIL error, and I can't root the phone because it reboot loops before I can enable USB debugging in the OS.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pattyboi:):
i mean not using toolkit,using actual fasboot. BTW: do you have a custom recovery? if so you could just adb sideload & if you can get the phone into fastboot mode and just flash a recovery then adb sideload after wiping all partitions && did you try using odin to flash back to stock (i dunno if there are odin images available,i apoligize if not)

1. IMEI shows 000000000000000

2. Shows emergency call only when sim inserted (cannot register on network)

3. 4.1.2 (downgraded from 4.2.2 OTA update

Question is

1. I have found customer.xml inside device/system/csc . Is this Related to the Country lock? If yes how can I edit to make it work with current country network?

2. Will flashing a Custom will do any help

3. Changing CSC will do any help to unlock

4. A window to enter unlock PIN was coming on 4.1.2 before OTA update. But after downgrading to the same the 4.1.2 it no more asks for unlock pin. Will this affect the unlocking anyway. Even if i get an unlock code thru internet i dont know where to enter.
