[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebulletfromhell:
If you want to be 100% safe - CM7/Gingerbread MIUI

If you're willing to risk your Internal SD card being borked (reason is unknown, although a lot of cases showed up around/after ICS/JB are ported to the 1st gen SGS devices. I highly suspect its a hardware issue, but you never know) - Slim ICS 4.2. It's not as smooth as JB roms, but it's prettier than GB roms, and it's more responsive IMO.

Jellybean option - CM10.1, CyanAOSP, GamersROMz, Slimbean, SuperNexus. Stick to 4.2.2, 4.3 doesn't bring any significant new feature, and the system feels a lot slower than 4.2.2 based roms. CM10.1 is the standard Cyanogenmod option, CyanAOSP is what I used to use before my Internal SD Card borked, it's essentially CM/SuperNexus lite. GamersROMz is pretty fast, but I lost the file and the download link is super slow, so I gave up redownloading it. Slimbean has the cool inverted mode that save battery, but it's a little slow compared to the CM based ROMs. SuperNexus is really fast and smooth, but feature wise, it's like a Nexus. You'll need Xposed to get some features that is built into CM, but at that point it'll slow down.

Don't bother with KitKat IMO, it's slower than JB without any significant functionality upgrade that is relevant on our devices.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juzzy16:
Thank you so much for your help! I first tried out the Gingerbread MIUI Rom, but wasnt too impressed with it. Half the apps remained in Chinese. I ended up flasing GamerzRomz. Pretty impressed with it and will prob keep it. Much much faster than stock! Thanks again!

Hi bro's,

Is there a way to get softkeys on out device? I mean I can do the "qemu" command in buildprop but that will only give me the buttons in landscape mode. I'd like to have them in portrait too. There seem to be made room for them underneath the samsung recents app menu. but the space is empty-see through. I disllike hardware buttons and it would be so cool to just undbind them in the keyboard files and then navigate trhu softkeys. Any sugestions?

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Did you do a wipe, or did you simply update and that was it? Being code, it isn't unusual that stuff breaks when changing something, and that's what happens when you update. Maybe something weird got introduced when you updated, so you should wipe everything and start from scratch.

- Are you rooted and do you have Recovery?

- Do you have any experience with Flashtool?

Yes. I wipe and flash 4.3 to update 4.4.4 from ota. And i am rooted and i have twrp recovery.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dominiqueovalle:
please if someone see this. is it possible that the red light of death battery issue happened with 46 percent battery like 1 minute before. i was tweeting something and then it froze. i tried to press the home button and nothing happened. then it shut off and i haven't been able to put it into recovery mode or receive any feedback at all other than the red light of death. but i clearly remember checking the battery life like a minute before and saw that i had the 46 percent battery. is this defiantly the battery issue or could it be a software issue. im running stock cm 11 with the stock kernel. and whenever i try the thing where i hold the power button and volume down for a while then plug in the red light is either beeping on or off or just plain solid red.

would this fix it for sure? :http://xdaforums.com/nexu...death-t2250454

please someone read this whole thing and help me fix this. i need to know if i can fix it or i need a new phone.i need to know before i operate on my phone

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dominiqueovalle:
sorry here http://xdaforums.com/nexus-4/general/final-fix-nexus-4-red-light-death-t2250454

and i havent done anything thats made a difference.

i have dont the recommended fix where i hold the power and volume for 60 seconds and plug in but no help whatsoever.

whenever i hold the power and volume buttons nothing happens.

but if i hold them and plug the phone in to charge then the red light is either flashing or solid red. it varies.

this leads me to believe its a battery issue since it only happens when i put it in to charge.

BUT im also worried its a cm11 problem because it shut down randomly. if it helps i have stock cm11 and the stock kernel. cm11 m7 i think. no nightly
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCody:
The only way to fix this 'red light of death' is to screw off your phone, pull the batterie out for some time and screw it on again. This is the only possible way, if volume down+power button+plug on charger doesnt work.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alluzzion2o9:
So i ran into an interesting issue. I had kitkat for several months and decided to try the GALAXY S5 rom just to try something new. Flashing and everything was ok, I just didn't like how the sketch app or memo app was absent so I wanted to revert back to kitkat. But when I wanted to wipe data, I accidentally wiped the internal memory so my back up was gone! After using odin and 'messing' with the BL and AP etc... I finally got my phone working but it freezes and unable to work after a couple minutes. My old files I used to get from MJ5 to KITKAT no longer works (bootloader unable to flash) I need help on what bootloaders, android platforms, etc even a ROM to use to get out of this situation. What updated files for odin should I be using to get out of this situation?

[Motorola Droid 4] Czerstwy:
Hi. I want to know, is there any problems with Droid 4 in Europe? I'm from Poland, and here is almost no such phones with keyboard, so I would like to buy from USA. I know that this phone work outside USA but I have a question: Phone must be unlock from verizon? If i buy locked, what can I do to make them usable for me? When it is unlock, I only need to updated Android?

I'm still learning english, so, if you have problems to understand my message, I'm sorry.
[Motorola Droid 4] magikstar:
i have bought one on ebay,i was unlocked to any carrier and work good in France
[Motorola Droid 4] nagim:
I can confirm, working fine in Hungary too. Would recommend to install Mentor's ROM/patch though, in order to be more optimized to GSM/WCDMA networks.
[Motorola Droid 4] StevePritchard:
You should have no problems - I'm in the UK and I've bought 4 or 5 in my time. Agree that you should install Mentor's patch if you are using CM11, but stock ICS and JB worked fine for me as stock.

Cheers,

Steve.
[Motorola Droid 4] nagim:
Agree, works out of the box with stock, but it's better after the patch. Better signals, MMS working properly, etc.
[Motorola Droid 4] Czerstwy:
Thanks you all. Last question: It isn't important whether phone is lock or not in verizon? Can I unlock by root/flashing in home by myself? I had only 1 phone with android and I'm not sure that.
[Motorola Droid 4] StevePritchard:
AFAIK there's no difference at all between the phones that say they are locked or not to Verizon.

Basically, if you are trying to use the phone in the US, then they are locked. Period. You can't use a Droid 4 in the USA on any network other than Verizon - it seems to be hardwired into the firmware (I'm not sure whether this applies to people with non-US SIMs when roaming in the US though).

As far as the rest of the world is concerned, then the phones are "unlocked" in that they will accept any non-US GSM SIM and work in that country. I think this was the case from the ICS Android release onwards, and only the original GingerBread ROM was locked for international use. Non-stock releases, such as CM11, do an even better job of handling GSM connectivity, especially with Mentor's GSM patch.

Cheers,

Steve.
[Motorola Droid 4] Czerstwy:
This is exactly what I wanted to know. Thx.
[Motorola Droid 4] daimyorl:
Same here. I have a Verizon Droid 4 working perfectly in Spain after gsm patch.

hi

i have managed to flash the latest btu firmware root and keep knox 0x0.

i used mobile odin pro and used the latest flashable zip in this thread thanks to mdiaz33685

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2760452

you are looking for a zip file called "N9005XXUFNF4_hlte_Stock_Odex_Not_Rooted_NoKnox.zip" this zip is normally a cwm flashable zip

next flash the zip using mobile odin pro and use the ever root option.

you should have the latest firmware and knox at 0x0

hope this helps and not a fluke on my behalf

edit: i was coming from nd3 firmware and used towelroot to root

edit 2: instructions step by step from post further on

On ND3 firmware root with towelroot

Install Mobile Odin Pro

Download zip from http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358557264

On SuperSu i had Survival Mode on

In MOP select the zip file you have downloaded in the OTA section

Make sure EverRoot and all options are ticked including wipe Dalvik cache

Flash the zip then when booted up go to SuperSu update binaries and you should be rooted and knox at 0x0.

Modem can be flashed separately using the full tar file from samfirmware.com and flashing in MOP selecting only the modem fields.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] scott.eden:
can any one else confirm this? did you root with towelroot?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] sweeney_uk:
originally yes, but used everroot in mobile odin pro to root the zip after flashing.

also it maybe worth noting i had survival mode enabled in supersu too.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] scott.eden:
OK. Not sure if to give this a go.

Might be you got very Lucky on not flagging knox.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] sweeney_uk:
i was set on tripping knox by using everroot on the tar package and flashing the BL on pc odin and that would of tripped knox from what i read in another thread somewhere, but i selected the wrong file in MOP so came across this by accident.

if anyone does try this please reply if it works

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jgaiche:
I have a Note 8.0 N5110 that has a strange problem which I don't really how to troubleshoot. When I am using it, the screen will go off just as if I short pressed the power button. I'll press the power button and swipe the screen to unlock. Everything is just as it was when the screen went off, but now the menu, power, and back buttons are non-functional. There are no lights or haptic feedback when I press them. My device was previously rooted before the 4.4.2 update and I had to use odin to install the upgrade. The issue didn't start for a couple of weeks after the update. Once the screen blanks and the buttons become non-functional, minutes later they will start working again; however, at some point, the screen will blank again and the cycle repeats. I have restored to factory settings with no luck resolving the issue. In fact, the screen will blank while I'm still in the setup phase. I really don't know what to try next to resolve this problem and my device is pretty much unusable at this point. Any thoughts or suggestions as to what I could try to fix this? Thanks in advance for any help - Jeff Gaiche
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] CCallahan:
Couple questions.....do you have a case or screen protector on it? Sometimes these can interfere with the sensor and cause these type of issues.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] jgaiche:
I do have a case on the device. It's been cased pretty much since I purchased it. I guess it can't do any harm to remove it from the case, just to see if it's possibly interfering with a sensor somewhere. The issue does seem to have been sporadic at first. I'll give that a try. Thanks for the suggestion -- Jeff

Was just a thought. Otherwise it might be a defective sensor that has to be replaced. Not really sure.

Hello,

I've been reading up on cm11, and finally decided to duct off the old NC sitting on the shelf (CM9), and update to cm11.

I was using a release after 5-16 (or 5-15)? (encore of course)...

and cwm 6.0.4.8

I installed CM9 a few years back, so I'm no stranger to this, but the update to cm11 is not taking, there was a few times it booted up, but I couldn't do anything on it, then it froze.

My question is, are there any step by step guides, to wipe this thing clean and start over, to get it up to cm11 internally, not from sd card? (including all files needed)?

Thanks in advance, and for breathing new life into the Nook Color!

I can help you with wiping clean and starting over, but not on getting CM11 going.

Go to my NC tips thread linked in my signature and make a new bootable CWM SD per item A10 (the 6048 version you have now will not work). The follow item A15 to get stock back. Remember to use the formatting zip there too.
