[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RyansDroid:
I have a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4 (SPH-L720). My device is currently stock rooted running Android 4.4.2. I recently just did a factory reset and need to encrypt my device. I have my screen lock password setup and when I select to encrypt the device it shows the screen with the android gear icon for a second then shuts off. About a minute later it will turn on again on its own and boot right up to the regular lock screen. It will not encrypt and gives no error message.

The only references I have found on a Google search about encryption not working was referring to an error message saying the encryption failed and asking the user to factory reset.

Any idea what is causing my issue?

Still having this issue. Even reflashed again and it's doing the same.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazydoc72:
As there is no "Ramos" at the device-specific section, I´ll put my question in here. Hope, that´s o.k.

I have successfully rooted the Ramos i8 (Android 4.2.2), but I can´t get the usb mass storage mode working. It only works as MTP-device, which sucks. When I enter

setprop persist.sys.usb.config mass_storage

in a rooted shell or via adb (also as root), the MTP mode stops and the device disappears as a MTP in Windows (when connected via USB). But the device does not come up as a mass storage device, even not after dis- and reconnecting the USB-cable or after a reboot. Vice versa, it works:

setprop persist.sys.usb.config mtp

Any ideas how to get the USB mass storage mode working?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Jaxonthorn:
I am trying to do a sim unlock. Following other instructions from other threads.

I have an AT&T galaxy s4 with an mk2 and 4.3. I've already rooted. Downloaded safestrap 3.71, and the mf3 modem from d-h.st/ReU.

I just want instructions on how to install the modem using safestrap.

Please help. (I'm a bit nervous as this is my first time doing this. I don't want to brick the phone.)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jmjoyas:
Dont worry about this. You are not going to brick your device by trying to update the modem.

Install safestrap app. Open the application and select the install recovery option. Reboot the phone. While the phone is booting up, press the capacitive menu (button left to home) button as soon as you see the safestrap screen.

Note: Safestrap recovery is available in normal boot mode and not in recovery mode.

Select "Install" option. Traverse to the folder containing the modem zip. Select the modem zip. You will be taken to another screen with the "swipe to confirm flash" option. Swipe to flash and you are done. Hit "reboot system".

Check the baseband version in "About phone" to see if the flash succeeded. Redo the flash if it didnt stick.

I hope you are following Possible method to SIM unlock on MK2 *must be rooted*

I switched PRL and changed data settings on the Huawei M931 Premia 4G from Metro PCS and everything worked as expected. When I read back the phone all settings are as I need them to be but when I try to use data on the device there is no data. 3G wont come up on it. I then tried to connect to WIFI and nothing. It says connecting, authenticating and then it switches back to disconnected. Any experience will be appreciated. I might need to load NV files any help would be greatly appreciated

Half ot these either don't do anything or don't help.

I thought some developers can be found on XDA, a place when kernel hacking and so forth can be shared. But to address the OP:

> dalvik.vm.heapsize=64m

Prior to ART there's no heap compaction. With no way to combat memory fragmentation memory pressure is better than using all heap for fragmented sparse data.

> windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=150

Default value's already 150% of the refresh rate. There's no jitter, that just wastes cycles due to needless framebuffer changes.

> ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1

Last worked on 2.x series.

> pm.sleep_mode=1

> ro.ril.power_collapse=1

Doesn't do anything.

Really.

Hey, Bro

[MENTION=5774252]dip6691[/MENTION]

Nice work

but you should also work on init.d tweaks

they are much effective that build.prop tweaks (In my opinion)

also people should flash performance improvement tweaks e.g (supercharger or pureperformancesX)

one more thing,

flashing custom kernel=more governors=more I/O Schedulers=Overclocking=HighPerformance !

Keep going :D

Clear all button position - oneplus 3t

Hi,

I did these tweaks on my oneplus 3t, after restarting I see the clear all recent apps button has gone to top right. I'm running the latest stock ROM. How to change that to come to the bottom of the screen? Also, do you have any tweak to change the headset button config? Like, I want the single press to mute my mic during call, instead of disconnecting the call and long press to disconnect the call.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Extreme112:
So I went ahead and flashed SlimKat coming from Purity Rom. Now after flashing SlimKat I noticed the dpi changed to one like below for more items to fit the screen. Now I flashed PA Beta 3 and it still hasn't reverted to normal dpi. I'm not sure what I did that caused this. I've been flashing roms before and I know some roms like the AOKP rom have dpi changers but I have no clue what's happening. Any help would be appreciated.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Citizen_Snips:
Well I know for a fact that SlimKat uses a reduced DPI. When you flashed PA did you wipe /system manually from recovery or just install PA? Try wiping or formatting /system manually from recovery and flash PA again and see if the issue persists.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Extreme112:
OMG I'm so stupid. I completely forgot about /system. Thanks a lot.

Lower DPI actually looks pretty good though... I think I might stick with a lower DPI from now on.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
or you can just change the dpi manually, in the build.prop, and reboot to have it take affect.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Citizen_Snips:
That's also true... And a lot simpler haha. Stock DPI is 480. :)

Hi, I have been searching for info, but not really seeing a lot. Wife just got the S4 L720T, with NC6, and it doesn't keep a data connection very well. Connection drops a lot. In spots were my Note 2 has strong signal and constant data connection, the S4 has signal also, but data is off/on.

Wife told me she took some update this morning while on phone with sprint activating phone. That must have took it to NC6 I guess? I rooted with the CF-auto root for L720. the only issue has been the poor off/on data connection most the day. I did do a hands free activation, ##72786#, and things are a bit better. did all the update profile stuff.
