[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
The OS and firmware are separate on Android just like they are on a PC. Flashing a ROM doesn't usually update firmware, the only exception to this is when flashing official CM nightlies, they update firmware when needed. You don't generally need to flash any firmware unless you're moving from KitKat to Lollipop (or vice versa). Or if the OP in a ROM thread specifically states that you need to.

I have rooted my phone. So to get to lolipop when available will I need to flash back to oem, reset counter and let T-mobile push hardware updates?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
T-Mobile (or any other carrier) has nothing to do with your updates, the updates are administered by CM and OnePlus. Root has no effect on whether you can receive updates so you don't need to worry about that. What counter are you talking about? Lollipop has been available for quite some time for this device, you do have the OnePlus One right?

I seem to have managed to fix my signal issues so yay there!... but I found something else xD.

I'm running Jgcaap's modified CM12 version with Boefla kernel. I also flashed an old CM11 modem to fix the signal issues with the patch to make the proximity sensor work. Everything is working great but now I noticed that the orientation sensors are not working. Gyroscope work perfectly and the orientation sensors are detected but they always report the same position so no auto-rotation. Any idea what I could check/do to fix it?.

I'm facing a weird issue..been using slimsaber KitKat from a long time...today when I tried to flash stock 05Q flashable unofficial zip from the thread by Spannna ...it just won't flash...not even 44s flash able zip...always it shows something about the update bin not available and all...but no problem flashing cm11 based liquid smooth...crDroid or any other ROM.

Even tried using updated twrp recovery and that before that.

I had once used multirom but removed it by flashing its uninstall zip from the thread.

Don't know what's happening.

As it has a lot of complexity involved ,so thought to post here and not in multirom thread.

I'll be thankful if anyone shares his experience if ever had faced this and how can it be fixed.

And point to note...the flash able zips were not bad downloads as they flashed fine and worked fine with my other one plus one.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrNinjaa:
Tried with 2.8.6.0 and 2.8.6.1 and the latest multirom twrp based on 2.8.6.0

Just had a thought,and wanted to know ur thoughts...

What do u think,if I try to flash the stock rooted 05Q zip provided by calkulin...I think,I should give it a try as its also same as provided by spanna except for superuser added ....I think ,I can flash the supersu after I flash the ROM and can use supersu rather than the inbuilt superuser..that may be a way too...

(Although I know fastboot is the best way but don't want to lose my user apps which I can recover using the Titanium backup if I use the recovery flashable zip of the rom or else it will be wiped out if I flash via fastboot)

Just flash with fastboot, as long as you don't flash the userdata image your internal storage will remain untouched.

Hello,

I will get my OPO today and im very excited, finally i will get ride of My Note 3, sammy phones and Touchwize.

I like very much custom roms and kernels, so of course after unpacking my phone the first think i do is installing a custom Rom. So unlocking bootloader is recommanded or there are some roms compatible with locked bootloader as sony for exemple?

Thank you
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
You must unlock the bootloader, even if you're not planning on flashing a custom ROM it's essential to have it unlocked so you can flash stock images in the case that something goes wrong. Unlocking the bootloader wipes all user data from the phone too, so it needs to be done when you first get the phone (before you start putting apps on, taking photos, entering settings, etc). Check out my guide, it's very comprehensive:

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maryushi3:
Backlight dims weirdly in unofficial LP ROMs

Hi all!

I have noticed that in most lollipop based ROMs I've tried backlight dims based on screen content. When the image on screen is dark enough the screen brightness drops slightly (or rather jumps down). It's not that noticeable while brightness in settings is set relatively high, but on lower settings it's extremely annoying. It's even more annoying when the jump occurs while scrolling through a webpage! ('cause it happens there too!)

The easiest way to reproduce the problem would be to open the Settings app (preferably using default theme) and slowly sliding notification drawer down. Sliding it back up won't always bring back the brighter.... well... brightness, however a quick slide down and up from status bar should. Sometimes closing the notification area slowly would result in brightness jumping back up. Just give it a try and see...

Another easy way to experience this issue is to set a dark (or even not that dark) wallpaper (happens with this one for example), clean up that homescreen and open and close Chrome (from launcher's dock) repeatedly.

It happens in (doesn't matter if installed in internal memory or internal mass storage):

BlissPop, CyanideL, CM12.1 nightlies, EuphoriaOS, EOS, DirtyUnicorns

It doesn't happen in:

CM11, CM11s, CM12s, (and surprisingly) AOSPA-L and XenonHD

Why is that happening? How can the issue be fixed? It makes every great ROM unusable for me (and therefore I'm basically stuck on CM11s). Don't get me wrong, both AOSPA-L and XenonHD, are great but they are missing a thing or two ;)

Hey friends I have a problem.

I was running on 4.1.2 on my note 2.

I am from India.

Then I tried to flash lollipop ROM after I rooted it and installed custom recovery. I installed new ROM.

It was great but I lost my efs partition and so does imei.

So to recover imei I flashed stock ROM via Odin but during that time I made mistake I flashed France firmware of 4.4.2 so in Odin it failed.

Now phone doesn't booting up just Samsung screen and immediately off then on again.

I can go to downloading mode but not in recovery mode.

Please help me and if I can get it back via Odin then please send me link of Indian firmware:eek::eek:

A similar problem has been mentioned in another forum.

It's been solved in this way: after flashing recovery and before issuing the command fastboot reboot, keep volume down pressed.

I haven't tried it myself, but it seems it worked.

It should not create any additional problems, so I think it's worth a try.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sannik:
Thank you very much. I tried what you said. It will go into TWRP. But if i reboot into the recovery from OS again I see CM recovery. Does this mean if i want TWRP to work, I have to flash it every time and go to the recovery from fast boot?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gilgamesh99:
That's pretty weird.

After the first time, you should be able to go to TRWP every time (unless you want to check again update cyanogen recovery obviously).

So no: you don't have to flash TWRP everytime.

You don't need root to flash ROMs, you only need a custom recovery.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beany>:
I'm not familiar with the battery app you have, so I hope I'm reading this right, as no one has commented here are my thoughts.

In many instances battery drain and alarms and wakelocks are caused by apps and settings. Some apps need to keep waking the device to see if there are any updates. The worst three I have experienced are Facebook, Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp. You have all three.

I see a reference to ambient. Is that ambient display set to on? If so it checks for movement of the phone and turns the display on. It could be your combined settings are causing the phone to keep turning on.

There is a thread on understanding wakelocks but I don't have it handy now; when I find it I'll edit the post.
