[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] tp2215:
Actually, the s5 has built in support for themes that (for some reason) was removed from the final version. Try this (if your rooted)...

Download the attachment below.

Put the apk in system/app folder using a file manager and reboot

Using a third party launcher, create a shortcut (normally longpress/shortcuts/activities) to the thememanagerlist activity and click!

Im working on trying to modify the launcher to include an option to launch the theme manager from the launcher settings. Unsuccessful so far though.

EDIT: you can download tons of themes that work with it by searching the note3 and s4 forums.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
You forgot the attachment. :P I usually never ask this, but do you have a link to the themes? I can't seem to tell which ones work with this.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] tp2215:
Oops sorry, here ya go https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxVhzq-d-t3fMGxaRWZZbFBMME0/edit?usp=sharing

Just search around for touchwiz themes, they are installed like normal apks. There are thread directories on the note 3 and s4 forums.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Skyrocket2:
Thanks tp for the instructions. I was looking around for this to use on my stock rom, but wasn't sure how to do this. What third party launcher do you recommend? Would Nova work? Also, I am not clear on when you said to create a shortcut (normally long press/shortcuts/activities) to the theme managerlist activity? Can you please explain?

Also, do you have a stock kernel in a flashable zip format available? Please share if you do. I want to try some kernels for the T-Mobile variant, but want to revert back to stock in case I didn't like it.

As always, thanks for all your help! Great job with the Infinity rom btw, :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] tp2215:
Thanks! btw, the themes app is in the rom if you are using project infinity. I just havent created a link to it in settings yet. I use Nova launcher, long press on the desktop and then select shortcuts/activities and then scroll down until you see theme manager, expand it and select the only activity that appears. It will create a shortcut on the desktop. Just click the shortcut to access the theme settings. In a future build of PI this will be built in.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Skyrocket2:
thanks for the tip. tried but the themes didn't worked for me using nova launcher. i downloaded one of themes from N3 thread and chose this theme, but it only changed the wallpapers on homescreen and lockscreen. The icons didn't get changed.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chewlo Green:
I know people say it a not possible, but I think it is. Im mostly talking about pre-knox devices. Im starting this thread so anyone can post information relevant to knox. What my goal is, is to find a way to completely remove knox. As of right now I know that it is said to be impossible because knox is integrated into the android system. But the way I see it, if there was a way to put knox there, there has to be a way to remove knox.

If it can be put together, it can be taken apart.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chewlo Green:
I've seen speculation that if you hard brick your phone and use an unbrick image then you can downgrade to 4.1.2. I dont know enough about this to go tell anyone to do this, but it sounds like it could work. Phones come out of the factory with binary that can not be changed. Post-knox phones have knox included in this binary. Pre-knox phones do not. This makes those phones less secure maybe? Older phones like the galaxy s3 were not created with knox integrated in to the system, so there should be a way to rid them of knox.

If it can be put together, it can be taken apart.

I would like to know if just XT926 will receive the update kitkat 4.4 or the XT925 will too ?

There is any date?

If i'm not wrong XT926 already received the update, right ?

Changing the subject, the kitkat 4.4.2 has some bugs and them consume a lot of battery, this bugs will be presents in 4.4.2 by motorola ?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shiftypain:
The XT925 will receive the update, you just have to wait for your service provider to stop tinkering with it. I'm in Canada with Rogers, I'm still waiting.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaR System:
I know about it. But I'm using retail version I don't need any provider. Then I need to wait for motorola. I just wanted to know more about the update and your bugs on version 4.4.2

the same here, even after a clean install, i tried the cromi-x (odexed&deodexed), the cromi-kk and the latest cm- snapshot version ,same issues,the Sound over earphones is perfect but the tabletspeaker Sound is terrible! can software like viper4android broke the Hardware speaker?

Tanks vor help in advance!

I followed his instructions and I even flash everything back to stock and uprooted.

Still having issues.
[Asus Transformer TF701] pachi72:
Maybe it can be fixed with a kernel?
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
If it is over multiple roms it's more like to be a hardware issue. Other wise everyone would have the problem.

Simply rooting cannot affect the speaker - rooting installs two files and a script - that is it.

What have you flashed on top?

viper4android is a sound enhancer so yes flashing that will most likely break the speaker if it is not compatible with the device ....

---------- Post added at 10:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 PM ----------

By the way that is a way out dated way of rooting and has pushed you back to an old 4.2.2 kernel that you are now running on a 4.3 bootloader and android rom base so YES in your case that MAY have caused issues.

LOOK AT THIS:

Prerequisites: drivers, adb and fastboot (this), firmware >= 10.14.1.47, asus unlock app

What bootloader are you on?

Update your device to that latest stock from the asus website or flash CROMi-X to see if that recovers it.
[Asus Transformer TF701] pachi72:
I flash Cromi-x and nothing. Also did a unroot back to stock and still have problems.
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
What bootloader are you on?

Sounds like a hardware fault to me cos if you flashed back to CROMI-X or stock you are on the correct kernel.
[Asus Transformer TF701] pachi72:
Um on 4.3 stock
[Asus Transformer TF701] sbdags:
There are currently 3 different bootloaders for 4.3. When booting hold down vol down and power - the bootloader version is in the top left corner.

:eek:
[Asus Transformer TF701] jojo665:
same for me.

i used towerroot v1 to rooted my tf701f (still locked). and only have installed titanium backup on it -- then the audio is all distorted.

i have tried full wipe (using setting menu), and has since upgraded to 4.4.2 -- still no dice. My bootloader version is "us-epad-11.4.1.17-20140711".

Since my bootloader is still locked, is there a way i can do a full stock flash ? (I tried to download update/flash from asus site (US_epaduser_10_26_1_18_UpdateLauncher.zip), but they do not work)

thanks
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
Rooting is not going to have any effect on the speaker. That's most likely a hardware problem.

You are on 4.4.2 and Asus has not posted that firmware on their website yet. The file you downloaded is JB 4.3. If you want to flash it, you have to unzip it once, resulting in another zip. It's that xxxx...user.zip you need to copy to the root of your SD. But that would be a downgrade at this point. Make sure you got the correct SKU or it won't work.
[Asus Transformer TF701] socalrocker:
are there any updated instructions with working links for this issue? a little late to the game rooting my tf701 and im also having the issue with the speaker sounding like its totally blown out
[Asus Transformer TF701] Devolution1x:
Same.
[Asus Transformer TF701] berndblb:
Mine blew a few months ago. Cheap hardware... Not worth it to repair IMO as long as Bluetooth works.

Reg. update /rooting: What exactly do you want to accomplish?

The best way still is:

Unlock the bootloader

Fastboot flash custom recovery

Flash SuperSU if all you want is rooted stock.

Or flash a custom rom

Hi,

After I off my car engine, the bluetooth is also switch off, instead of stopping the song that I am listening, it continues playing via the phone speaker. Anyone encounters the same issue? Any where to feedback to Sony on their software??

Thank you.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arrrgh:
Yeah, my phone does the same though sometimes it does manage to pause the song.. haven't found a way to reproduce the pause though, seems totally random. Smart Connect is essentially useless too and profiles like on car bluetooth disconnect pause playback do absolutely nothing.

It's kinda weird since the auto playback and pause work just fine with head/earphones, it's just bluetooth that's having issues.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angka8:
anywhere to feedback to Sony. it should be some straight forward changes
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] guhvanoh:
Seems like a software design decision to me. Since the phone has an output device when disconnected from bt, it uses that. Case in point: if you were on a phone call via bt in your car and the car stalled, battery died, whatever, should your call disconnect or should it switch to using the phone's mic and speaker?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angka8:
yeah you maybe right. but this differ from most of the other music app. anyway, for car bluetooth, the music and phone usually connected via different application. so i still think that this design decision is not right. cheers

I read some posts about G4 phones being unlocked successfully by IMEI check, however i wonder how can you possibly pay for the CID unlock when you can install whatever rom you like even in a CID locked device.

If you have a CID locked G4 device, all you have to do is: choose a 2.x rom you like (ONLY 2.x roms are G4 compatible); follow THIS tutorial to remove the bootloader parts; flash it with a modified rom upgrade utility.

Just my two cents...

And no, until now their are some tips to reduce the lag when you have it but the real reason is not found.

So, please, be correct and say that some have this lag.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] ewok666:
Most likely caused by having an SD card in the tablet on earlier versions of the firmware. Remove the SD card or update. On my P605 the update to the Hongkong firmware made this go away.

Oh also tried the s voice and no success. I know is not only me. We have a few people that have this problem. On my galaxy note 3 I have no problem.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nadious:
Brand new Note 3 owner. Just came from a Razr Maxx that I've had for quite awhile. I'm very familiar with flashing and roms... what I did not realize (and it is my fault completely for not paying attention) is that the latest KK update dropped the day I got my phone. (Like... not even a week ago.) Being a new phone, I turned it on, there was an update, I hit yes.. and took it.

Found out tonight (after the fact...) that the root method I was trying to flash using Odin must have been for the 4.3 system. So, naturally, I got a fail when trying to write: cache.img.ext4 and now the phone throws the firmware update error. So, I'm in the process of getting the correct and latest firmware to put on here to hopefully fix this.. but was just wondering:

Am I going to have to flash / wipe the entire phone to get back to 4.2.2 stock, or... is there a way that I can write the correct version of cache.img.ext4 out to this phone in download mode, without having to lose all my data and such. Not a big deal if I can't, just trying to see if there was a way that I could save some time and not be forced to setup my phone again.

This is only my third android phone... first was a Droid X (loved it), then the Razr Maxx, and now this. So, the process of using Odin and such is all new to me, but I'm pretty sure I can get this back to stock, as long as the firmware I downloaded is the right one.

Hi. I'll be soon getting S3, probably with 4.1 firmware. I woud like to flash 4.3 from Samsung or CM 11 onto it. Are there any custom roms on 4.3 that don't flash new bootloader (or just knox)? And is there a way back if you already flashed new bootloader and knox? I know about workarounds for root etc., but I know too that it still causes problems on custom roms? Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomboomer:
You are missing lots of basic knowledge on the s3, it doesn't have knox, bootloader is irrelevant to the firmware and custom roms are already rooted.

Go read the sticky thread in general forum before you flash anything.
