[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flollop:
Hi, everyone,

I'm desperately missing Google Play on my China Mobile Galaxy S5, and I'm planning to root it. However, I haven't been able to find any auto-unlockers that support this particular model for the root process.

My biggest concern is still being able to make calls on the phone when I take it on trips back to China (I'm currently in the US).

I'd like your opinion: should I try and root it using a universal root, and then just install the China Mobile radios? Will this even work? The last time I rooted a phone, it was my Verizon GNexus, so it's been a while...

Thanks very much in advance, guys!
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miw:
Rooting and installing a recovery and gapps will not affect your China Mobile radio. As long as you don't install a custom ROM you will still have access to TD-LTE. I have a G9008V which is rooted and has play store installed using the method in this thread:

I took a shower the other day with the USB port open. Woops. Didn't notice any problems for a few days. When the screen is bright white (like with the flashlight app) you can see some distortion near the USB port. I buried the watch in Silica Gel (used the expensive kitty litter) for a couple days and the distortion is now 90% reduced. Only issue now is the watch always thinks it's charging lol. I'll keep putting it in the silica gel every night until it's fixed. I suggest you do the same. The Chlorine in the pool might leave too much residue though :( .

so I am having APN issues after upgrading from 2.6.3 to 4.1.2 rooted. no data or mms, phone and txt works great. same provider.

galaxy s2 sch-r760 generic cdma, ACS provider here in alaska. apparently goes through gci?

now this is going to be a book, so grab a tasty beverage.

when i add the APN the mnc and mmc are not correct.

when i change them it discards the APN

i have no sim.

this thread did not help

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=715788

if i dont change those, it seems to communicate with my network as it fills in the mmsc field. but i get no internet.

if i enable then disable airplane mode it shows the 3g emblem, then it disappears.

I have all the correct APN info from my provider.

I have tried every way of changing the APN-conf.xml file but nothng has worked.

my thinking is that i need to change the default mnc and mmc that appear when i go to add the apn, to the correct values and then i will be able to save it.

however i cannot find that field in the systems. if someone know a trick i havent found in the last week of researching, please help.

could my phone be locked? if so how would i go about unlocking? could upgrading my software have changed my cdma settings??

i am fairly new to messing with android but i have some linux experience and am a quick learner.

Also if there is a custom rom or kernal or binary or what ever the operating system is called that might fix this issue and work on my device please let me know.

if someone does help i will pay a reward to them via pay pal, it wont be much but hey its better than nothing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Segnale007:
Hello guys, I have recently abandoned stock firmware in favour of liquid smooth 4.4.4 which works flawlessly.

This is a SGS4 i337m Telcel Mexico, and for some reason I am stuck to the baseband version I337MUMUAMDL. I have tried everything, flashing the modem file through odin, through heimdall, wiped the phone and installed the whole firmware containing the 4.4.2 baseband, but nothing to do. The baseband for some reason will remain the same.

Now, on samfirmware it looks like the latest version of Android available for this phone is the 4.3 I337MUMUEMK6, instead I am trying to update the baseband to the 4.4.2 Canada (Rogers) (Black Edition) I337MVLUFNE1 since as far as I understood these two models should be the same.

Does anybody know why I am stuck to this I337MUMUAMDL baseband and what could I do to fix the issue?

Additionally, is there a specific baseband recommended for this phone?

Thanks,

Pietro

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] AKdballs:
Flash, and flash again

I had the same problem initially with my i337m not accepting the updated baseband. I flashed it and nothing happened. After reading and re-reading this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2324667) I found the solution there.

I downloaded my modem file from that thread. You may have found a newer version of the baseband. If so, use that one and these instructions should still work. I tried flashing from mobile Odin but it did not work so I moved on to Odin on my PC v 3.07 and that eventually worked for me. The first time I flashed it I restarted the phone and nothing had changed, so I paid careful attention to the following section from the thread I referenced above:

"Method 2 Odin

Unzip contents to your computer.

Put your phone into download mode

Open Odin

Connect your phone to your computer

Place modem file in PHONE section

make sure to untick autoreboot

flash

Reboot"

AND ALSO

"If it doesnt change the baseband, try again and make sure that you:

Untick Autoreboot

Flash modem

Reboot once again into Download Mode using (Vol Down plus Home button combi)

Flash Modem once more

Once done,

unplug then reboot device manually."

I know it seems like you're repeating the same steps a bunch of times, but it worked for me when I flashed it twice before rebooting the phone. I hope this helps!

Both my Hermes and my Universal have this problem so I must be doing something wrong.

My Hermes is set to check my work's exchange server for mail ever 15 mins or so. It works just fine, until I then connect it to my laptop for charging or transfer of applications etc.

When I hook it up to my laptop, it syncs with exchange again just fine using the laptop's connection but after I disconnect the device it refuses to get mail over the air unless I perform a soft reset. No errors are given it just takes a very long time to try to sync before timing out and displaying the last sync time as the last time it successfully synced.

After a soft reset everything is fine until I once again connect it to my laptop.

Who puts the permissions of given app.

- the appstore (automatically or by person who review the code)

- compiler or packaging program when the app is created (they are added automatically if you use relevant classes in your code may by?)

- they are added by the developer on his own and he can add some permission and hide some others if he want to cheat.

Which is the right answer? Its very important because sometimes its needed to install apps not from google play or some other good shop but from somewhere you don't know. Then this app in fact can make things you don't know and make big damage to you.

2. click on the app u want to edit its permissions

3. click create modified apk > apk with changed permission and activities

4. click the permission u want to remove and click "Rebuild application"

5. delete the original app and install the modified app

Permission

Hola

It´s the developer there say that the app uses something, it needs permission to. He declare which permissions it needs, in the manifest file.

For example, you have an app there can view websites, the app needs permission to use internet. So he put this code in the manifest file "android.permission.INTERNET".

What is the biggest size flash drive or external drive we can use on the AFTV?

Fat32 or NTFS file system?

Do you need a powered multi usb device to make the external drive work?

Must you use a powered external drive to make it work in the fire tv?

Hope someone can clear it up.

I tried this method with NFSMW which is approx 4gb after updating and it copied everything over the my usb BUT when i mount it the game says my usb storage device has no room for an update -_- (even though the directory copied is the most up to date version and capacity is 16gb) also, this method does nothing to free up space on the FTV. I had to go in manually to my android/data folder and remove the directory to free up space myself. Might want to add that to the description.
[Fire TV General] fireTVnews.com:
You are mistaken or did something wrong. FolderMount moves the files AND deletes the originals. If the files are set as "mounted" in FolderMount, it will appear as if they are still on the Fire TV. Meaning, if you "ls" the original directory in /sdcard/, you will see all the original files. However, the files are not actually on the Fire TV. To verify this for yourself, go to Settings > About to see your available free space before and after following my directions. You will see your free space increase.

How are you guys moving large apks in /data to USB storage? Foldermount doesn't do this. I'm not sure if Link2SD will do it either..
[Fire TV General] fireTVnews.com:
FolderMount does not move apks. It only moves an apps data files stored in /sdcard/Android/data or /sdcard/Android/ogg. If you go to Settings > Applications and look up an app, you will see the disk space used by the app is broken up into 3 categories: Application, Data, and Cache. FolderMount can only move the "Data" value, so if you have an app that lists its files under "Application" or "Cache" there is currently no way to move that to an external USB drive.

[Fire TV General] wunderdrug:
Disclaimer: I'm new to this whole Android thing, so what I'm writing

this based on my own research and experimentation. So, take things with

a grain of salt: I may be off base on some of my conclusions.

Anyway, I've tried to use symbolic links or mount points to either mount

"/data" or individual/all apps in "/data/apps" to a USB drive, but with no

real luck.

In order for this to work, you would have to mount the USB drive before

the Fire TV loads the list of all available apps, and I have not been able to

find a way to do this. Using StickMount to do this won't work as it's an app

itself, so it cannot mount a USB device before the app list is loaded. So, you

are stuck with having to find a "hook" early on within the boot process where

you can mount the USB device. This can either be done via the "/etc/vold.fstab"

config file (used to mount devices), or through some other hook in the init process

where you can execute a script to mount the device via the "mount" command.

The issue is that all the files/hooks are located within the boot image, which, to

my knowledge, cannot be modified until a boot loader unlock is released. But, if

anyone knows a way around this, I'm all ears.
