[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
I just updated the TWRP listed in my signature for Supersonic to a link to my thread with a fully working TWRP build ;).

Don't use ClockworkMod. Also, smelkusMOD isn't linked to any particular ROM; it should work fine.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muttleytm:
I renamed your TWRP file to PC36IMGG.zip and ran hboot. I didn't check when I started it, but, it was only a couple minutes after your post. It said parsing for quite a long time.

Also when I went to the Smelkus links and they are the same files I had tried earlier where zip files also got stuck at parsing. They all had ROM names associated with them like ReLoaded, AOKP, etc. So I figured they also had a ROM. I did try the smelkus AOKP img file using fastboot and I was able to flash it. I think I recall seeing that custom recoveries have to be installed with fastboot now that I think of it.

Anyway, the phone continues to behave the same as before. It makes a startup sound and gets the to yellow 4G on the white background and stays there for awhile and then goes black. I had it in my pocket or with me in the car for a couple of hours now and I can hear it cycling and every time I checked right after the sound it was the yellow EVO 4G screen. I didn't notice if the lock bar on a black screen showed up as the try with the other recovery app.

I thought I saw that you could make an img file from a zip file, but, I see it only works the other way. If you can provide the img version of your TWRP recovery app I'll try that too.

Is there some log file that might show what is happening?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
The image files are in the zips. Just extract them and you can fastboot flash them. Flashing them through HBOOT only works if the main versions match up.

Actually a logcat might be helpful, if adb is working and you have a computer.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muttleytm:
I got TWRP installed. However, my touch pad is not working. I don't know if that would throw things off when booting up. When I first put it back together after replacing the board this happened and I opened it up and found that the locking mechanism wasn't in the locked position. I put it the way it should be and my touch screen did work the one time I booted up and got the phone running.

I didn't get a chance to take it apart today and take a look at the connection. I should get a chance to look take it apart with no interruptions tomorrow afternoon.

I do have a computer and have adb installed and I have used it in the past. I'm not sure if it will work if the phone isn't booted up since the setting for USB debugging is made from the GUI. Maybe I can connect using USBboot and then use adb?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Captain_Throwback:
The connection might be your problem. Not sure that a logcat would even show that.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muttleytm:
I did fiddle with the connection and the touchscreen didn't respond and did it again. That time it worked. I also saw that the EVOs have a grounding issue that is fixed if you hold it by the back and sides which I was doing at the time.

I am having some trouble with the Google Play Store App now though. I can find the app I want to install and when I press install it doesn't start to download. Have tried it with several apps and they all act the same. I tried clearing the Play Store App cache, data and uninstalled the updates, but, still won't install.

anyone else having issues with knock on not working? knock off works perfect everytime, but knock on is not working at all.i am now stock zvc unrooted after .toting to test if i maybe deleted something i shouldn't have, however after .toting it is still not functioning?
[Sprint LG G2] sclarktay4:
Just noticed that yesterday. I have stock zvc rooted. It did work shortly after i ran .tot. I just dont know why or when it stopped working. Knock off works just fine.
[Sprint LG G2] abhinav.tella:
Apparently toggling it on and off, and recalibrating the screen in settings fixes the issue for many.
[Sprint LG G2] calvin269:
No Knock on

I am Optimus DE 2.2 ZVA radio, been on it since feb and has no issues. But Sunday, no more knock on. Knock off works great. I tried to re flash rom, tried a factory wipe and re calibrate screen. If, no one has a better idea I may just tot back to factory. Thank you in advance for any help.
[Sprint LG G2] sclarktay4:
Toggle on and off and calibrating did not resolve. What i did notice is that is will work eventually if you just keep tapping and timing yourself. I have tried lots of suggestions from other sources and nothing has worked consistently for me. The frustrating part is that it was working flawlessly not too long ago. I have not installed any new apps but some apps have updated. After about 50 tries, knockon did work but out of about 120 tries, i have only successfully got the phone to turn on twice by using knockon. Has anyone else had better luck?
[Sprint LG G2] esoh:
I'm on ZVA rooted and I lost knock on a couple of weeks ago. I tried the usual culprits, turning on and off, calibrating, fix permissions, etc. It's still not back on. I'm not expert on these things, but could it be an app issue? Knock off works fine. I'm in the process of thinking about tot'ing to ZVC, but have to find 1/2 day to do it. Maybe when I do, I will load apps in sequence and reboot to see if an app could cause this problem. Again, I'm doubtful, but who knows.
[Sprint LG G2] Robisgnarly:
have tried all this, and it will start to work again like mine has however it is hit or miss the problem is not consistent.
[Sprint LG G2] darkpoe:
Its a hardware defect, go to developer options, turn on show screen touch data and find the dead area

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:49 PM ----------

My brothers didit and im about to get another replacement for the issue
[Sprint LG G2] sclarktay4:
Did that. No dead area. I have been testing this for days now and for some reason knock on only works intermittently for me. Might be calling sprint soon if i cant figure this out

Edit:

Must be an app because my wife has g2 rooted by the same process mine is. Her knock on and knock off work perfectly. She does not install many apps, that is the only difference between our devices.
[Sprint LG G2] sclarktay4:
Has anyone tried to .tot back to pure stock to see if knock features work then?

Edit:

Can confirm, .tot back to stock zvc does not fix knock on. At least for me it did not. No apps installed and enabled knock features. Knock off still works perfect.
[Sprint LG G2] sclarktay4:
Tried that. I .tot back to zvc today and i still do not have knock on, only knock off
[Sprint LG G2] coolblood2:
I am having the exact same issue and have tried the exact same solutions to no avail..... Seems to be I guess a hardware issue. So now my ? is what will sprint do if I return the g2 rooted? It's just stock rooted with no recoveries or nothing special. Can I just Remove Greenify, G2Xposed, and Titanium Backup and give it to them to exchange? Can they really not except it? I love this feature and it annoys me to no end that it doesn't work but maybe 20% of the time.
[Sprint LG G2] sclarktay4:
.tot back to zvc and return phone. Thats my plan and it unroots phone so no worries.
[Sprint LG G2] Anthony_xdl:
I posted in several different areas of the forum and no success. Flashed back to stock with ODIN and still had no success so I just took it to the Sprint store and they're ordering me a replacement ???????
[Sprint LG G2] bradreeves94:
Having same issue with the knock on feature working, knock off works fine. I am also on OpTimuS DE 2.3ZVC. It worked, then suddenly stopped working. I even made a nandroid backup, then tried the Dorimanx kernel and the knock on & knock off worked perfectly. Myself i think it an issue with the Furnace kernel, hopefully Savoca will help us out.....

[VZW] HiddenMenu

Read the entire 7 page thread, and follow directions.

System app this should be with terminal instructions.

This did fix my knock on problem.
[Sprint LG G2] Demo3827:
how to fix Knock on

First copy the apk to System/apps fix permission to rw- r- r-

Them reboot

Open dailer and put this. 5689#*980#

Them go to

hw device test/ Touch test/ touch firmware update.

Exit out and done knock on is working
[Sprint LG G2] filipelq:
Go back to ZV7

Nothing worked for me and I could't get the option on the menu. I've just went back to ZV7, the menu appeared and Knock On is working again.
[Sprint LG G2] gonk24:
This doesn't work for me. I've replaced the HiddenMenu.apk properly, changed permissions, and rebooted. Once into the menu either by terminal or dialer code, there is no HW Device Test option to choose. It's giving me the same hidden menu that Sprint already has. Again, yes, I replaced the apk properly.

Stock rooted ZVC
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
Wait a second... I'll double check, but I messed up mine one time and got the same menu. Trying to remember what I did to get it fixed.
[Sprint LG G2] gonk24:
I flashed back to stock twice using the ZVC tot and knock on wouldn't work either time. Thankfully I got the knock code update to ZVD and that did fix it.
[Sprint LG G2] hunterintustin:
I had the opposite problem, ZVC was all fine and ZVD messed up the knock on feature,
[Sprint LG G2] :
Really? The update worked fine for me[emoji4], I love the Knock Code feature.[emoji4]
[Sprint LG G2] kbow1:
Same for me.....

I'm in the same boat, knock on worked flawlessly prior to the ZVD update, now it does not work at all. Knock Code is awesome, so if I had to choose one over the other, I'd take the code. I've tried some of the fixes previously mentioned to no avail. Any other fixes out there?
[Sprint LG G2] secret.animal:
Knock on won't work when you have knock code lock screen.
[Sprint LG G2] Agimax:
To Clarify even more:

If you tap your "Knock On Code" while the screen is off, it will wake up and unlock to desktop. The double tap to wake is not active while you have the knock code active.
[Sprint LG G2] beezar:
Had the same problem for a while. I took the ZVD update, then tot back to ZVC, but knock on stopped working. Tried the HiddenMenu.apk but still the same limited menu.

Then I realized that the HiddenMenu.apk is deodexed and won't work on ZVC odexed. So i fixed it by flashing a deodexed ROM (SuperG2 in my case), installed the HiddenMenu.apk which worked, updated the touch firmware, then tot'd back to ZVC, and knock on works great now.
[Sprint LG G2] kbow1:
I'll have to check that. Knock On works with Knock Code on my G3, figured it would be the same on the G2............maybe not.
[Sprint LG G2] trubadness:
just sharing my experience: i updated to zvd, back to zvc, to cm11, back to zv7 and ota'd all the way back to zvd and my knock on still worked, it is now broken after i flashed the white lines fix after flashing the tmobile stock rom by novembre5. tried every fix in this thread and still no fix. knock off works flawlessly. im sure if i went back to zv7 and took all the ota's again ittl work but i need this rom to use my tmobile service.
[Sprint LG G2] jamaicamike:
All you have to do is put your knock code in when screen is off and it will turn on knock on won't turn on the screen but if screen is off and knock code is used it will unlock the phone
[Sprint LG G2] xlnzee:
Did you try the Hidden Menu trick? that works for many if not all.

try 3845#*modelnumber# eg: 3845#*800# change model number 800 with your phones model number, then tap on "Settings" and scroll down to "Update Touch Firmware"
[Sprint LG G2] penone1130:
I'm on a US Sprint LG-G2 and folllowing beezar's advise was able to get into the proper hidden menu. I went ahead and updated the Touch Firmware but still no go. 2 questions:

1. What is the correct firmware version that will fix the knock on issue?

2. Does the proximity sensor have any effect on knock-on? I just recently replaced my screen and think I may have damaged the proximity sensor. When I use one of the proximity sensor tests it never seems to work. Stays at 0cm.

Thanks for any help!
[Sprint LG G2] imekul:
I think the proximity sensor DOES affect the knock-on feature. My knock-on works fine, but if I put one hand over the proximity sensor it won't wake on a double-tap (probably to avoid accidental wakes when the phone is in a pocket).
[Sprint LG G2] penone1130:
Thanks.

I see now where the issue lies. When I put the screen on I must have had too much adhesive on the top portion because it does look a bit raised. If I push down on the left corner and then double tap phone turns on. Looks like I'm going to have to take the screen off and add more adhesive.
[Sprint LG G2] blakebaa:
I'm having the exact same issue, and haven't found an easy way around it yet. There is the hard way, but I don't trust myself enough to do that! :P
[Sprint LG G2] cgedansk:
I'm very surprised this is still a pervasive issue. My knock-on function disappeared when Kit Kat showed up and never came back. And, knock-off works just fine, so it can't be hardware.

I've tried the fixes using the proximity sensor. None are that responsive and they all eat battery life. Not sure if Sprint or LG will every solve this issue.

Anyone thinking about switching to the M8, due to root and not being able to control the battery? Or come from the M8 and have comments?

Contemplating the switch
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] ElijahD407:
I'm coming here from a galaxy s4 and my s5 should be shipping but I was really on the fence between these two. But with this one no having root and everything I'm still not sure what I'm going to do. I'll probably just try out s5 and see if it's worth keeping even without root. What are your guys complaints on s5.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] BlueHarford:
i came from the G2, the battery i kill in less than a day. i check my email and FB @6am. by 6:20 my battery is at 90% with the powersaving on and grayscale feature disabled. using wifi.

i feel like i cant get through a day. with my G2 i could get through an entire work day and be at 70% battery.

Going to look at the M8 now
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] ElijahD407:
Wow first I'm hearing about such subpar battery life. I was under the impression that the s5's battery is a bit better then M8.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Syn Ack:
It's definitely better, I don't know why anyone would look to the M8 for an improvement if they're coming from the GS5.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] jongraytv:
I returned the M8 due to it being ridiculously slippery and just very difficult to hold. I'd hold my breath each time i got it out!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] docmarioce:
Coming from the M8

I got the HTC One M8 the day it came out for Verizon and it is an incredible phone. Very fast and responsive, beautiful and sleek but coming from a galaxy s4 ( and thinking I was tired of touchwiz and Samsung phones) I couldn't get used to the volume controls in the other side and such. I switched to the S5 (burning my only exchange option) in the day 14th of using the M8 because of the wonderful screen, the better camera and the volume keys location besides that this phone feels sturdy and robust.

I dislike the vibration caused by the speakers and how different it sounds when compared to the M8. Also I see myself double tapping the screen frequently to turn on the phone. But the main difference is how slow this phone is compared to the M8 and even to my "old" galaxy S4. Despite all those facts I still love my S5 and if I had the chance wouldn't exchanged it back with the M8 even when I keep looking for apps to turn on my screen by double tapping and ways to make my phone faster.

I'd prefer to wait longer and if I don't get use to the slowness of this device I might give it to my wife in August (when her upgrade is available) and get myself a new phone such as the new LG G3, etc. I used to root and install lots of ROMs in my old S3 (now my wife's), and other phones but I did not root my S4 and did not miss it. I am OK with my S5 if it was faster and could double tap to turn on. This screen in amazing and I think I already got used to Samsung phones.

M8 is a great phone but to simple for me and the screen don't get close to the S5 in my humble opinion. Besides it's heavier and slippery that I thought I was going to drop it any minute, even when I can't get over its speed and responsiveness.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Ciscoaudrey:
Im coming from S4 to S5 but due to not having root im taking it back today. Actually liked how snappy it is and smooth it works. Reason i need root is need to tether my unlimited data. Was actually considering M8 cause its roited and unlocked but i just dont know might wait for that Sony to come out soon.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] kameleongt:
I'm on the gs5 right now but I seem to be having little issues like the screen not coming back on after hitting power then trying to turn phone back on. I do this a lot I'm noticing now. I've had each galaxy phone Verizon has had and I still have the m7 gs4 gs3 and gs5 this has the best screen IMO and will miss camera. I'll hold one to the gs5 in hopes of the root but will have the m8 as my main phone for the time being. The little issues I have from the gs5 makes it feel like a downgrade from the m7.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] anothen:
Had the s5. Bought the m8 first, then got the S5 but returned it to keep the M8. No regrets. I didn't like how long it was to have to reach up to turn the screen off but I found a screen off widget do one handed use is perfect.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Crooke356:
First off, i'm impressed with this thread so far. Everyone giving their opinions and not telling anyone what they should do or that something sucks.. It's refreshing.

I own both myself and the G2. While the displays on the G2 and M8 are great and are by no means slouches, the AMOLED on the S5 is just stunning. The best on a mobile device I've ever owned. I do enjoy the back and it feels well construed. I went ahead and added wireless hotspot to my unlimited plan for another $30. I did this for more than just having it on my S5, the only device I own that isn't rooted but wanted to throw that out there for those who are worried about it affecting their unlimited data and don't mind paying the extra cash.. It only brings my bill up to $120 so it's acceptable for me. I love my devices and usually hold on to all of them but with S5, I planned on giving it a test run as I'm in love with the M8 and will not be parting with it anytime soon. But, I didn't count on my love for the S5's display. I'll be keeping it as well.. At least until the G3 comes out. A Galaxy device is like money in the bank. Great resale value. Owning all the devices that I do and cruising all the threads, it's obviously, as we all know, personal preference. Just keep at the reviews and find what features are most valuable to you.

If all my devices were held hostage and I was only allowed to keep one, it would be none of the above. It would be my developer edition Moto X, that is covered by warranty while being unlocked, rooted and running a custom ROM based the stock Moto UI.

Sorry for the novel, I always end up rambling.

KitKat kills tethering.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] supermatt9:
I am exchanging my s5 tomorrow for the m8. The s5 is awesome but there's a few things I'm really looking forward to on the m8...

1. Root/s-off. This is important to me. For me having a phone without root is like having a bike with flat tires. You can still ride it, but it sucks and the bike is so much more fun with pumped up tires.

2. On screen buttons. I do not like the physical home button, and since I am left handed I HATE that the back button is in the bottom right hand corner. It's a pain for me to reach. If I could switch the back and recents button on the s5 that would go a long way.

3. Front speakers. I watch a lot of stuff on my phone and the first time I heard the speakers on the m8 I knew I was probably gonna exchange my phone.

4. Double tap to turn on. I fell in love with this feature on the G2 (kinda wish I had just kept that phone. It's a great phone. Gave it to my sister in law though). Once you get used to this feature it's hard to not have it.

Things I'll miss about the s5:

1. The screen. It. is. Beautiful.

2. Water resistant. It's been a long time since I've dropped my phone in the toilet. I'm overdue for it to happen again.

3. Removable battery. I've always like this feature.

Any thoughts on the battery life of the m8 vs the s5? I know the battery life on the G2 was quite a bit better than on my s5. Is the battery on the m8 even worse?

Lastly - what's with the sim card on the s5 not being spring loaded? IT's a PAIN to take out.

---------- Post added at 10:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ----------

What do you mean? I've tethered many times on different phones running kit kat. Lack of root kills tethering. Not kit kat.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] dts242:
You need more than root for tethering to work. FoxFi has stated that it will never work on KitKat. Hopefully somebody will find a way.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] supermatt9:
Good point. In my experience I have always rooted and then flashed a rom. Whether it was a stock rooted rom or a custom build like CM, tethering was always built in.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] BlueHarford:
if you use AOSP it works fine... G2 tethered all the time
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] dts242:
AOSP will probably not be an option. It was only possible on the S4 when it first came out. After updates, you could only flash TW based ROM's.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] jpmcnown:
Coming from S4 MDK to the S5. My brother needed a replacement phone, so I made a commitment to give the S4 to him, knowing the S5 was going to be a PITA to root. Though we don't have root, I'd rather suffer with a locked down S5, than suffer more with a rooted M8. Can't wait for something else to come along and offer another alternative.
