[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] singhpratik87:
First of all you should have used philz recovery version 6.25. or 6.41 if you are flashing the recovery for first time on stock ROM.(TWRP is known to give issues when flashing it over stock recovery).Download the latest philz from this LINK.before doing all this place superSu v1.99 in your external sd card of your phone you'll need it later.Put your phone into download mode.Open odin,connect your phone to odin.wait for the port id to lit up, uncheck AUTOReboot in odin.Next tick mark the AP/PDA option in odin and browse to select the downloaded philz file from above link.Then click start and let odin do it's thing.Once it says "pass" unplug the phone from laptop/pc pull the battery out the phone so it can turn off .wait few seconds put the battery back in then enter recovery mode manually by pressing and holding the volume up+home+power button and let go of all 3 buttons as soon as you see samsung note 2 logo ,wait around 10 seconds or so for philz to load.Then go to install zip select sd card 1 philz will freeze for a moment and then show main menu again, do the same go back to install zip , click on storage sdcard 1(external sd card) find the superSu v1.99 that you downloaded earlier and click on it and press yes on next screen and let it flash.Now use the back button and go back to main menu,go to power then click on reboot system.Now your phone is rooted and superSu will ask to disable Knox press ok/yes and you are done.

SuperSu V1.99

Don't see the point in locking any thread that pops up about the bad journalism again today. I mean the general forum is for that...has always been the garbage collector for the forums. Seems kind of communistic of XDA to have its mods do that. Just makes no sense. Well it does make sense considering how XDA has been migrating the last years or so.
[Nexus 5 General] cobhc:
It's because threads pop up like weeds everywhere. People can't just reply, they have to start another thread and it gets out of hand.
[Nexus 5 General] tullnd:
I like how you presented your argument in a manner that was only constructive and not designed to just irritate the moderators or make them upset. That is what shows off what a mature and polished person you are. Kudos. High class!
[Nexus 5 General] bozzykid:
So merge the threads. I'm not sure why commenting about T-Mobile updating their site to show the 4.4.3 update is illegal. The threads will continue to pop up because every other thread gets locked and there can never be any discussion.
[Nexus 5 General] TheCybertronian:
In b4 lock also reported.
[Nexus 5 General] motcher41:
It doesnt get out of hand. They pop up...users chat and communicate then they fizzle out. Always do. No reason to go straight into communist mode.
[Nexus 5 General] TheCybertronian:
I keep hoping they ban for breaking rule 1 I think communist mode would be fantastic for this place.
[Nexus 5 General] motcher41:
I have my reasons. Kudos to you as well.
[Nexus 5 General] motcher41:

Not even close this place is still noon haven and chaos. They need stricter rules and enforcement.

[Nexus 5 General] Watcher07:
I'm of the mind that you have to fit in with the community you share, not the other way around. If you opt to join a community that doesn't work how you want it to, then you need to simply find a different one. It's not an emotional thing, nobody hates anyone else, it's just a matter of fitting in socially.

XDA keeps a tight reign on thread topics, content, and direction. That is the decision of the community moderators and thus, the community at large needs to abide by it. If any of us don't like it, then we can move on to find somewhere that better suits what we're looking for.

I've been here for a while (contrary to my 2010 date), and I've seen the moderators back in the day let many, many things slide and it could get really chaotic, really fast. I remember when ICS hit, there was a point where I had to go 3 pages in to get past the multiple topics of ICS release, it was crazy. Also, the moderators are here on free time, and if you've never moderated a community of this size, I'll simply say that "merging topics" can take awhile when you're talking about 30-40 (which happens if you don't keep on top of it). They do their best, lock what they can when they can, and move on with life.

for the TL;DR crowd, it is what it is, if you don't like it, it's time to move on.
[Nexus 5 General] motcher41:
I joined a community back then that sadly has been migrating to the negative way IMHO. Used to be a contributor that helped people regardless of if its a dumb repeated question asked 100 times. Sadly...its not like that anymore.
[Nexus 5 General] y2whisper:
but I think its about conditioning users to not post stuff like that. Just doesn't bring any value. Even when one thread is left open to discuss rumors people keep posting to it for updates until it finally happens.
[Nexus 5 General] simms22:
every single dev here was a noob. i know because i was here a few weeks before android was released(got my g1 2 weeks prior to release), and i personally helped a countless amount of people that have become "devs" here, when they were noobs. id say most devs here were noobs within the last 5 years.
[Nexus 5 General] jetbruceli:
So why don't the mods make a future firmware thread for discussion. This way it's all in one place.

I came from the note 3 and I swear there was thread for every firmware for every region. The mods did little and it was a huge mess.

Ended up not looking in the General section ever again.

Also they would post a new thread for cyanogenmod every time they saw it mentioned on the internet.

But I would like to see one thread for discussion.
[Nexus 5 General] TheCybertronian:
No those aren't noobs they are driven users, noobs don't care about advancing or doing more. They just want their answer nothing more. I learned by SEARCHING AND READING not creating a thousand threads on any of my old accounts.
[Nexus 5 General] javacody:
Uhh, a free forum where anyone is allowed to register and post having rules enforced is communism?

When was the last time you read anything by Karl Marx???
[Nexus 5 General] Tylog:
This is precisely the reason why the threads were eventually closed. Thread an hour, flamming, bashing, nothing constructive, and so on. really no one has to wonder.

So it was in the 4.4.3 thread before, so here it is. As in Kindergarten sometimes.

[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] rsvali:
Hi,

My galaxy grand touch screen digitizer was broken, so i have updated it new screen digitizer which i bought from local dealer(looks original but not sure it is original or duplicate). After changing the screen digitizer, some times phone automatically performs different actions.

when i turn on data roaming it used to perform different actions, without allowing user to perform anything(we need to turn off data roaming, then it works normally. I used to manage to turn off it).

So i thought it is a software issue and i have recently upgraded to 4.4.2 using cosmic ROM. But using this also i am facing same issue, im facing this intermittently.

does anybody faced same? is there any solution for this.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jackeagle:
Hello...:)

I guess its duplicate....you could have given it to official Service Center?? Regarding Random Response it its possibly digitizer issue...Try differnet ROM and see if this continues then it is Digitizer Issue...

Hello, everyone. Is this possible? I am absolutely sick of this locked bootloader and nothing working crap. I saw where you can use T-mobile on a Verizon device but can you go the other way as well? I really miss Cyanogenmod!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mega Montana:
http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=hlte
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] arcanexvi:
You can use the VZW devices on tmo but not the other way around. VZW uses cdma for voice and Tmobile devices do not carry the bands necessary as they are proprietary.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Guero.:
Has it been attempted. On the Verizon board they seem to think it's only a software difference.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] rjohnstone:
First, there is no active CDMA radio in the N900T, so no, it's not just software. The Qualcomm SOC in this phone has the CDMA hardware permanently disabled.

Second, Verizon is very picky about CDMA devices they haven't sold, running in their network.

Since it would require a hack to enable the required bands (something not possible with this particular phone), there's no chance any non-native CDMA device would ever be allowed to register it's ESN on VZW's network.

Remember, the CDMA side does not use a SIM card, only the LTE side does.

Thanks for the help, time to put the Verizon phone on eBay and switch to t-mobile!

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desanusseur2porc:
Hey guys

Just got a S5 (previously owned a S2 and S4 Active, which I have rooted and put custom ROMs so many times. Hence I'm familiar with Odin, Recovery, etc etc).

About a week ago, I installed Shohat v5 ROM, everything went fine. I was quite happy with it.

I installed back my app from my S4 Active through a big update.zip (backed up with Titanium paid version) thanks to custom recovery.

And just now, when my battery was like 5% left, I decided to make a hard reboot (as Xprivacy warned me that I needed to restart to have my changes into effect).

I charged my phone and THEN I push the reboot button (not the hot boot).

While charging, the screen went normally black, but stayed black with the blue LED notification ON (not sure if that info is important).

Then, black screen stays forever:

- no logo

- no download mode

- no recovery

- When phone is connected through USB to my laptop, I hear the usual "tadaam" sound from Windows, but no "USB notification".

It seems a JIG would be the solution, but no idea if that would work for a S5 (I guess Samsung has now worked to avoid that solution)

Well, if anyone can help, that would be cool ;)
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Goldie:
Obvious I know but you have pulled the battery for a while and tried again right?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desanusseur2porc:
Hello

Indeed, I just removed the battery for a few hours a tried, no success.

But is it normal that a hardbrick can occur 1 week after installing a custom ROM?

Right now I can't bring it to Samsung store for repair...
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desanusseur2porc:
(Adding a new post as editing is not working properly)

Isn't there a way to use ADB with commands through Windows (as there is the "tadaam" sound when I connect it through USB)?

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desanusseur2porc:
OK ............

Here's the magic

After removing on and off the battery many times, trying to boot in recovery or download (trying about 15 times)

Now I managed to boot in recovery (I was like "huh?" and "wooohoooooo")

Did Wipe cache

Did Wipe Dalvick

No Factory reset

Fixed root (seems like I lost it, no idea why)

Let's see if I can reboot it

I think maybe the issue came from the huge update.zip created from my S4 Active (i9295) with Titanium backup (I was in Android version 4.2.2).

Maybe the reinstalled apps, messed up something as the ROM was in version 4.4.2...
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desanusseur2porc:
OK ... bad news again

I performed a hard reboot to check that everything was stable, and phone rebooted fine.

then I turned off and removed to battery to put back the SD card and the SIM card, and now the phone is not being turned on again.

And now the phone is not able to be turned ON again...

What's going on, any idea?

*** EDIT ***

I managed to reboot in custom recovery totally randomly after playing with the battery (removing, putting it back, trying to boot)

I made a full factory reset and reinstalled the custom ROM Shohat.

After rebooting, it went directly to ODIN as it was displaying error messages "ddi: MMC_read failed"

I guess the internal SD card is dead.

Questions:

1/ Is warranty OK if

- KNOX counter is at 0 (no idea why it is at zero)

- Current Binary is set to OFFICAL

- BUT SYSTEM STATUS is set to "CUSTOM"

2/ Can a custom ROM do this or is it a hardware failure?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bnight:
Did you try with another sd card did you have apps installed on this sd card for me this sounds like a dead sdcard issue with some apps on it. I had the same issue with my X8 when a lot of apps ware running from the sd card btw sd cards are totally unreliably for storing important data as they usually die after some writing on them.

Change the SD Card and I think your phone will come back to normal.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alex_tytn:
SD Card Reader

I don't know if this helps but I had an GS-900H (S5 octacore version) and struggled with it for a week trying to debug this problem, ordered new memory cards, installed different ROMs, etc. only to find out that the card reader was bad.

In my case it would corrupt the card every time so that my PC would need to 'repair' it before I could begin using it in the PC.

Maybe the card reader is a common point of failure?

EDIT: I also had issues with different cards working and not working based on the speed of the SD card (different S5). I know for a fact that it will switch you over to main memory when taking pictures that require advanced features -- I got a popup telling me that my memory card wasn't fast enough.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desanusseur2porc:
Hello guys

Thanks for your input.

Unfortunately I do not have an external SD card, the issue is with the Internal memory ;)

So i can not request new ones or try to replace it, or work on the card reader...

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desanusseur2porc:
Hello

Well, not sure that ODIN will work as the internal MMC is not recognized, so where would that be installed?

Furthermore, I'm waiting for the feedback from Samsung (as knox counter is at 0, Binary is set to OFFICIAL and only status is set to Custom).

I did not want to change these counters with manipulating ODIN.

If Samsung gives it back to me with a new one, then wooohoooo

If Samsung says "f*** off, you manipulated it, warranty is off", then I'll use ODIN with STOCK ROM from Samfirmware + PIT file (they are ready for use on my computer)

While I'm waiting for the leather case to arrive, I wanted to come up with a storage solution for AP100 when I throw it in my bag. Amazingly, Pelican 101 case has perfect dimensions to accommodate that but it requires a little modification.

This 1010 case is bulletproof, and cost only $13.50: http://www.pelicancases.com/1010-p/1010.htm and I'm also using pick'n'pluck foam insert: http://www.pelican.com/cases_detail_accessories.php?Case=1010 to keep it from rattling inside, but you can use any kind of spacer, or maybe just put your IEMs in there.

The plastic shell of the case itself has perfect inner dimensions, but the inner rubber lining makes it a bit too tight, pushing on the side buttons of the DAP. So, I just cut out the top part of the lining keeping the base which prevents AP100 from rubbing against the plastic. On top, I used foam insert, so it looks like this:

anybody know the process of doing so please reply immediately.....

thanks for your feedback brother..... bt i wasn't able to do that by es explorer cuz after that i tried with solid explorer and set up the permission....

now i'm able to make my desired application as system application by only SOLID EXPLORER....

to set up permission by SOLID EXPLORER ONLY you have to follow the following instructions:

1: press jump

2: go to device

3: system root

4: go to folder named 'system'

5: after entering into that folder press the tab named 'actions'

6: then press 'properties'

7: then scroll down there will be 'attributes'

8: then press 'change'

9: after pressing 'change' there will be a window named 'system'

10: tick all the check-box there and press ok

now it's done....

i strongly recommend to use

Hi guys...

so, i bought a Razr HD XT925 and it still didnt arrive, but till it happens i want to be ready to root the phone, so i can install titanium backup and erase some **** that will come like some google apps.

i've read some threads about rooting the phone and i realized that a lot of people talk about this "bootloader"

i had a galaxy s2 and i've never had to worry about this, but in the root threads of Razr HD i see people arguing about it...

i dont know if the phone will arrive with the last update(4.1.2), probably will cause its a long time this update has been out...so i have the following questions:

1) If the phone comes with whether 4.0.4 ICS or 4.1.2 JB, do i need to do something about Bootloader beore rooting it? if yes, what?

2) what's the best way to root? any link for a good thread?

i just dont want to get the phone and in the first day screw him up...

that's why i need to ask this.
