[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madspeed:
I couldn't find anything. I looked everywhere. It was weird because i had just pulled it out of my pocket to check the time. Lockscreen looked the same as always. I noticed i had a missed sms so I unlocked it to respond and was then stuck in landscape. I didn't notice if it went right to landscape or not. Funny thing is I could rotate the screen 180 and the image would be totally inverted. Made me think the gyroscope sensor was on the fritz. Wasn't there a way they could be calibrated in the past?

what launcher are you using?

Switch back to stock TouchWiz to validate if it's hardware issue - but it's most likely just a setting in your launcher.

Hi im old to android but new to rooting so i readed a lot i guess about the benefiths so i was convinced to root my galaxy s4 so i whent to androidrootz i got the link from some forum here in xda so well i did all the proces exactli how it says but now when i turn my phone on it doesnt pass the samsung boot logo and it says something in yellow and red like kernel and something about waranty, did i briked my phone or does it have a solution? please help:confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Binary100100:
Sounds like you it's in the process of booting up. You should just need to wait it out. Some custom roms can take several minutes to load especially if you didn't do a data wipe first. My advice, let it sit for about ten minutes with the Samsung boot animation and if it still doesn't then do a full data wipe. If still nothing then install a custom rom by booting into recovery mode by holding power and volume up at the same time until it boots up to the custom recovery mode.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] sabastio:
i just rooted i didnt instaled any custom room it says in red kernel is not seandroid enforcing and in yellow says set waranty bit: kernel
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
You tripped the Knox counter. There is no way to avoid it. But that shouldn't be preventing you from booting.

If you can boot to recovery try wiping cache and davlik. See if that helps. If you didn't install a custom recovery you may not be able to do that. You may have to wipe data by doing a factory reset.

Worst case, you can always use Odin to restore the device to stock, then root it again.

You will always have the Knox kernel enforcing error message from this point on though. You can't reset that. But again, that shouldn't interfere with the operation of the phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] sabastio:
:good: how do i reset with odin? i have the program runing but i dont find that option
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
You need to download the firmware to flash with Odin.. That will restore your phone..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] sabastio:
yeah i saw that the thing is that i cant find where to get it. i readed that sammobile was the place for it but the web wont load idk if its down or what :confused: do you know where can i get the original firmware for a galaxy s4 m919 from t-mobile?

Help! My Galaxy Note 3 is stuck on the Verizon logo! I downloaded this app:"font installer root" to install the default Roboto font on my phone and now it is stuck on the verizon logo after I rebooted to install it! I rooted my phone with kingo a while ago. Also the light on the top is blue.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aarongillion63:
Yikes. Sounds like a locked bootloader. Verizon likes to throw in as many security checks as possible in their ****ed bootloaders I am so sick of their shet. Sorry I have a Note 2 on Verizon and I can't get a recovery on here I've bricked it 3 times now and just gave up trying. I am still on 4.1.2 yet Triangleaway never actually solved the problem. I can't wait to get off their stupid contract I am never using them again.

Sorry that I can't really answer your question atm but I can look into it here after I calm down. :thumbup:
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidChitownNexus:
no need to panic.

No need to panic. There are several ways to return back to normal. Did you install safe strap once you rooted? If so, pull battery out, replace and reboot into safestrap. Click the wipe setting and then you wipe settings to an operable state of operation.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan1776:
Will I lose my apps if I follow the tutorial to recover from the soft brick? and which restore file do I download?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidChitownNexus:
Actually, thought of something easier. Before you power phone up... hold the menu button, volume up button and then push power button together while still holding the other 2 buttons. This will start the phone up in recovery mode. Do a factory reset from this screen. You will lose your app data however you can recover the apps via Google play store. This way you'll also keep root. Doing the Odin recovery will lose root and restore to fresh out of box condition.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan1776:
But I don't want to lose my apps. I got some of them from other app stores and i have screenshots on my phone(my pictures are on my SD card), is there any way I can at least get some data of my phone?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidChitownNexus:
did you try to just reboot and wait it out?

Question for you. Before you do any of this, did you try and reboot again and see what happens? Sometimes the phone does certain system checks via boot and may require a couple of minutes to do its thing. I would do this before you factory reset. Maybe it needs a moment or two. Give that a try before you do anything that will compromise your data and apps.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan1776:
I turned it on with and without the sd card and no luck. let it run for 20 minutes to an hour on the verizon screen and nothing works. I just want to get at least some data off it. When I plug it in It detects it as SAMSUNG_Android and I can't access it. I only made one data backup back on 1/1/2014.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidChitownNexus:
Looks like you may need to do a reset. Then, once you are reset install backup. This way you'll have some of those apps. Also, factory wipe will not delete SD card.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aarongillion63:
Yo, even *IF* you accidentally wipe your data, you're not completely out of luck. Once you get your device up and running again, I saw a guide on here once on how to mount your phone's internal nand as a harddrive on Windows and use one of those data forensic tools to recover all the deleted data. This may not work for some of your apps but you *will* get all of your screenshots/pictures/whatever files back! If ya want a can go back and look for this.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan1776:
I can't find that guide anywhere. can you post a link?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aarongillion63:
You're in luck, I found a boatload of forums you can look at! The popular choice among these is using Recuva, but all are different ways to go about it. Check these out:

Root app methods/Recuva Basics (NOOB FRIENDLY): http://www.alliance-rom.com/wiki/recover-deleted-files/

XDA Method (Windows): http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-nexus/general/guide-internal-memory-data-recovery-yes-t1994705

MuhammadAG method (Linux): http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/mounting-your-android-devices-internal-storage/

My suggestion (Try this first with Recuva): Flash your phone back to stock, reroot (using Framaroot or other non-invasive method), get terminal emulator (*NOT* through Play Store, don't even set up Google accounts, this will potentially overwrite data), in emulator get su and type "setprop persist.sys.usb.config mass_storage" and see if that pops the cap. Samsung is stubborn tho and will not usually let this one fly. It might fly if you happen to install some other than stock rom.

Sorry that this is a lot of info... weigh your options!!

Best of luck,

Please do say thanks!

What's up guys I've been using the nagalite rom with sprint s4 and it's good but at times it's hard to get service. So I was wondering if there was a rom with great sprint network service as well with wifi tether. I would really appreciate it the help or is the something I can do to make my network better cause I like this rom but I need better network.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] daniel4653:
There is no ROM that affects your signal. That is all based on sprints network, location, time of the day, etc. If you really have bad problems I would say to try stock unroofed NAE.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeydriver:
Ok, so I hope in my searching I didn't miss the answer to my question.

I'm looking at getting the S5 Verizon Developer Edition. I contacted Samsung (no, I don't know why I bothered). I wanted to know if download booster was blocked like on the regular version, what their return policy was, if the electric blue would be an option, what unlocking/rooting would require, etc.

My main question was about the rooting/unlocking and the download booster. Does anyone know what it takes to root/unlock the developer edition? I know it's not locked down like the normal version...but I don't know if it's an option you can just select or if I'd have to find a root/unlock here on XDA.

Any/all info on what the developer edition differences really are would be greatly appreciated!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeydriver:
I contacted them again today to ask. They are now telling me they do believe that Download booster is enabled. BUT...they're telling me I can only return the device if it's new and unopened. I am worried what if I have any issues with activation (which would require me to open the box...duh). They have transferred my call to 4 departments, and no one is sure if they would allow a return under those circumstances. I really don't want to spend $600 on a phone that I can't do anything with.

Does anyone here have any experience with the S5 developer edition??
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeydriver:
Not sure if anyone reading this thread is interested as I've gotten no posts, but I did get an official reply directly from Samsung's offices (from the President's office to be exact).

Hello Mr. ____,

Thank you for your inquiry. Please see below responses to the concerns you have inquired about:

“does Download Booster work on this device as Verizon disabled it on their version?” -> The software on the device behaves the same as the consumer version of the Verizon GS5.

“does unlocking the device void the warrantee?” -> The device comes with an unlocked bootloader, the warranty is a 30 day hardware warranty or until the device has been modified beyond factory specifications. If the device requires service we will be able to provide a service estimate on repairs requires outside of the 30 day warranty period.

“My question is if I get the device and Verizon is unable to activate it on their network (which would require me to open the box to test this), can I return it?” ->For this reason the restocking fee can be waived on a case by case basis.

Best Regards,

Office of the President

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnigmaRaptor:
Thanks for going through the trouble of contacting Samsung on this. I am generally concerned with the ability to root, and of course activate on Verizon network (???). I never thought activation would even be a question. Do you have anything that instigated that concern or are you just being thorough?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeydriver:
No, I didn't have a reason to think the activation wouldn't work other than being cautious.

I just know that when you buy an item and there are no returns once opened, I get worried that when some other company gets involved, it'll become a blame game and Verizon would say "We didn't sell it".

The more I play with other peoples S5's, the less I see a need to upgrade personally though. I'm running a great ROM right now on my Galaxy Nexus. I just want a phone that as everything, and his (and all phones) seem to be lacking in a few areas. I really wish I could just call them (Samsung, HTC, etc.) to tell them what I want in my phone!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EnigmaRaptor:
I am surprised that you can live with the Galaxy Nexus. I have one as well (with Verizon's extended battery), and the battery life is completely abysmal. the GS5 is a new world of long battery life and I can actually turn on ALL of the features I wan't without being chained to a charging cord. I had a retail S5 for about 3 weeks before selling it to pay for my Dev version. It was a monumental upgrade over my GNex in every regard, except I missed rooting too much to keep it.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokeydriver:
Yeah, I hate the battery life. I have 2 of the extended batteries, and I keep one in my pocket at all times. The batter life is a joke...between waking up and leaving the house an hour later, I can be down to 70% battery life fairly often.

I do want the battery life of the newer high end devices (S5, M8), but I'm hoping the S5 active has everything I really want (3 GB RAM, image stabilization, Snapdragon 805, replaceable battery, memory card slot, etc. etc. etc).

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ReapersDeath:
Difference between permissive and enforcing? Normally with Android kernels I never see it so XD
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
An SELinux-hardened system (KitKat) will run with SELinux in *enforcing* mode, meaning that the SELinux policy is in effect and things that it doesn't want to allow won't be allowed. But when trying to debug permission problems, it might make sense to temporarily disable SELinux. In this case, you can opt to have SELinux run in *permissive* mode, for the entire system.

[Samsung Gear 2] scary123:
I bought 2 neos in different colors and thought I could switch between them. They make it very very difficult to do. Every time you want to go to the other one it forces you to do a full reset and restore from backup. That not only takes up a lot of time, but I find that quite a few of the watch faces and apps don't get restored. I have to download and reinstall them each time. It is also almost impossible to get it to connect via Bluetooth unless I unpair it first and go through the whole pairing process. Very frustrated and may give up and send one back. I guess they never thought anyone would want to own more than one. :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamie Jackson:
Hi Folks,

I'm on Cyanogenmod 11, running M5. I've been having problems with my battery gauge (or both batteries themselves) since early April nightlies.

The low-level battery gauge shown when the phone is off and charging seems accurate, but the gauge in the OS is all over the place, and will go from 90% to 2% in seconds, then shutdown. I might also be confusing the battery stats by swapping batteries; I don't know.

Is there a way to disable the shutdown? (For what it's worth, I went looking for "reset battery stats" in my modern Clockwork Mod Recovery, but couldn't find it. I don't know if that would help or not.)

I've seen people talk about being able to disable the critical battery shutdown in Xposed, but I know nothing about Xposed, and I'd rather not get into if not completely necessary.

Thanks,

Jamie
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeeX:
Try to do a recharge cycle each month.

Let your battery to be fully over so the phone won't turn on anymore, then recharge it back to 100% without turning the phone on.

Then again let it become dead then repeat the charging process 3 times to recalibrate the Battery meters on the device.

AFAIK "Reset Battery Stats" was removed from newer versions of CWM since it didn't have any effect or actually done anything.

I´v tryied this module under CyanogenMod 13, Android 6.0

But no success, still looking for the same solution!

Just to encourage this approach, i´m gonna tell what´s happening with my phone.

It goes down to 0% of battery and it shutdown, after that I boot it to the recovery (Clockworkmod) and it stays there with bright screen for more the 3 hours without shutting down!

So 0 % of battery is like 50%!
[Moto X Q&A] r.storm85:
Sup guys I have been having issues with awake time. While I'm still getting good batter life I'm thinking it could be better if I figure out what's keeping my phone awake. Well today I was in a not so great service area for most of the day and I see my awake time coincides with the bad service area. When it goes green the phone sleeps when its yellow it is awake. Is this a known thing for bad service to keep the phone awake? I know it searches for signal and burns more battery but I did not know if it should be awake. Thoughts?
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
Are you rooted? I doubt its just from radio. Something is constantly waking your phone. But you need gsam or wakelock detector to show you what is waking the phone. Without root, its not so easy to find out tho.

---------- Post added at 09:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 AM ----------

And no, that is not good battery life. For the amount of screen time it seems you have there, the battery should still be at 50 or 60...or more, percent.
[Moto X Q&A] r.storm85:
No I'm not rooted and would rather not. I just shut off Google now. Gonna see what that does. Never use it anyway

But do you see how the awake happens when I go into yellow or worse signal. Is that weird or what?
[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
It actually seems pretty consistent to me, green or yellow.

Its probably an app or service. Without root, very hard to track down.

Try turning off gnow, location services completely off, in Google settings app...uncheck both options in android device manager.. And then turn off sync completely in your Google account settings....and see how it is then. If it still happens, its an app for sure. You'll have to track it down by process of elimination. If all that stops it, then turn things on one at a time....with a few hours in between...until you catch the culprit.

Good luck!!
