[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpcalhoun:
As mentioned, if you want to root and flash a custom recovery and ROM then go with the Dev Edition. I had an S4 Dev Edition before my S5 Dev Edition. Samsung never released an update or recovery files for the Dev Edition and will probably follow the same policy for the S5. I don't know what their logic is but it really doesn't matter. Our Dev community does a great job taking the latest firmware, tweakng it and releasing ROMs that are updated.. The key to a Dev Edition is the unlocked bootloader, as long as you keep your Dev Edition bootloader you can flash just about anything you want. The alternative is a retail version of the S5, rooted with Safestrap, but then you can only flash Touch Wiz based ROMs. I love my S5 Dev Edition and having an unlocked bootloader makes it so simple to flash a custom recovery, root and flash ROMs..
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vfnewman:
I have the Developer Edition because I don't buy subsidized phones, and I like to flash any ROM I want (I came from the Galaxy Nexus).

Can I flash ANY Verizon S5 ROM, including the ones that are intended to be installed with SafeStrap? (most are).

Thanks in advance.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpcalhoun:
I'm pretty sure you can. The Developer in his OP should address any special instructions for SafeStrap users and Dev owners. If there is a restriction on who can flash the ROM, it is probably more restrictive for the Safestrap users vice the Dev owners.

Hi, i have a question about my phone, now i have CM11 on my Optimus L9 P768 (with bootloader unlocked .. and all that stuff), so i want to revert to original android... i tried a few ways to do it (with kdz and lgMobile support tool) but my computer can't find my phone after installed drivers. On the other side, with that KDZ-way i cannot enter to download/emergency mode (hold vol- and plug the usb or hold vol- and power button and plug the usb).

So my question is, can i install rom for P760 on my p768 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2481243) that rom, or anyone can give me some help to revert to original stock android in a different way.
[LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769] BajoPrimate:

I have the same problem, can't go back to stock room from Cyanogemond 11.

Maybe we have to restore a backup from a stock room and then flash?
[Design, Prototyping, UI, Graphics] caspernetherlands:
I am developing an application that contains stock wallpapers of almost all Android smartphones brands.

The problem is that i can't deal with the resolution of images. Let's take an example: i have an image with dimensions 1920x1280

I know that the best image resolution for an Android home screen wallpaper is 2x of screen width (for example width of s2 is 480x2=960px) and exactly same height (for example s2 height is 800px) so the right wallpaper size for galaxy s2 (with screen resolution 480x800px) will be 960x800px. But on the market there are plenty of smartphones as well as different screen resolutions.

I am asking if is there any "universal" resolution (i know that this does not exist but at least approximately) for the wallpaper so that to fit on most of screen resolutions ? If there is not this means that i have to crop every wallpaper and resize to the right resolution for most of smart phones screen ?

Any suggest will help me, please give me something like referent, any other app, or any Java code so i can put into my app.

Thanks :)
[LG G Watch] TjPhysicist:
Not sure where to put this, so I'm putting it here. I attempted to buy G-Watch from in.mobilefun.com (mobilefun.co.uk's india website). A day later they informed me that due to shipping issue they are unable to make the item available in India at all, they have since removed it from their indian website. The money was credited back to me.

HOWEVER, they have since re-debited my account for said money, under the same transaction (reversal of above credit). CAlling up mobilefun's UK phone numbers usually does not connect me to anyone and when it does I get a rather unhelpful set of people telling me they have no idea about the re-debit, the last they see is that my account was credited BACK for the amount.

PLEASE no one buy from this site, they are swearing they didn't take my money, not shipping or having any promise of ever shipping the item to me or this country at large, and have taken my money and refusing to give it. Since Visa's dispute policy is 10-15 days post-purchase I have to basically wait a month before even thinking about getting my money back.
[LG G Watch] spiderflash:
I kinda doubt that mobilefun.co.uk is a fraud. Im not from the UK, but they have a trustworthy rating. Maybe your bank has made a mistake. Have you tried contacting your bank and asking them about it? That's what I would do.
[LG G Watch] ChrisM75:
Mobilefun isn't a fraud, but they do tend to have dubious practices concerning stock levels. They will claim an items in stock when its not so that you order with them and they hope you will wait rather than cancel..

Ask your bank about it. They should reclaim the money.
[LG G Watch] coolsilver:
Even though you may see a reversal sometimes they can stay pending for several days. Same with any pre-authorized amount when you first purchased the item. Sometimes these will drop off the account before it is fully posted. I'd call the bank though they should be able to tell if it was a hold or pending debit or credit to your account.
[LG G Watch] Hardcore73:
They are using your money to buy more stock of items then by the time you fight it they have sold enough to cover it. It's called a float. Terrible practice.
[LG G Watch] TjPhysicist:
My bank says it was originally a hold that was reversed as the order was cancelled, but the "reversal was reversed" in essence, mobilefun basically claimed their money back from my bank after reversing it
[LG G Watch] MobileFun India:
Hi TjPhysicist,

I am from the Mobile Fun Indian customer service team.

If you would kindly let me know your order ID and I will look in to this as a matter of urgency and respond via email.

Can I also ask for any Customer Service Ticket ID's for any queries you have submitted to us, so I can investigate the level of service we have provided you already.

We have indeed removed the LG-G watches from our Indian site as we are unable to sell them currently due to supplier restrictions. We are however working hard to try to rectify this issue and have them listed again as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,

Mobile Fun India
[LG G Watch] TjPhysicist:
3949286 is the order ID#. I have called many times about this and am assured that you have *not* made any debits further to the credit on your side. The bank says that the second debit and the first are in fact done under ONE single authorisation code (not sure what that means). All in all, my whole experience is soured, It could be the bank being wierd, I don't know, but the result is the same.
[LG G Watch] MobileFun India:
Hi TJPhysicist,

This does sound very strange and my apologies for this. Would it be possible to send over the full details of the individual transactions(including times, dates and auth codes) to customer.services@in.mobilefun.com and I will investigate further with our payment service provider. Like you said it may just be the bank being weird and hopefully it will be cleared up in the next 24hrs.

My apologies again for the inconvenience caused and I assure you that this is the first case of this we have dealt with in the numerous refunds we have ever processed.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lawalty:
Today (July 9th) Google has released the anticipated latest Chromecast app that would allow us to screen cast our phones to a TV. It's only available for a limited amount of phone, which our Note3s are supposed to be supported.

However, the Play Store only shows v1.5.5.

Can someone verify this?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 440bro:
Try this apk. It's version 1.7.4

http://www.mediafire.com/download/wqhdjkt4zdrnrk7/com.google.android.apps.chromecast.app-1.7.4.apk

I only have android 4.3 and it requires 4.4.1 or higher so I can't test it fully. It installs for me but no screencast feature found.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lawalty:
After my first post, and after searching the interwebs I finally found this 1.7.4 version.

After install, it does exactly what they advertised. It screen casts everything to the TV. To test, I played a video in full screen mode from my PGA Tour app, and it looked beautiful! Especially in full screen!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lawalty:
*Update* the Chromecast in the play store still only shows v1.5.5. Which is says it's been updated on July 9th (today), so I can only assume our wonderful Note3s will not get this updated version through the normal "official" channels.

I hope I'm wrong.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kamau54:
I saw that too. I went online though, and found a 1.7.4, but it's not casting. It doesn't even show my Chromecast on the device when I try to cast. It just shows "My Device". It does show up in the Chromecast app though.

Hi all, I noticed that since the last update, the Sony Album app is showing thumbnails as photos.

The thumbnails are very small files and thus very bad quality.

I already deleted the thumbnails several times via root browser but they keep showing up.

Also wipe app data or complete fresh install doesn't solve this.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klau1:
What makes you think I haven't already? As you correctly said, there are "millions before you" that have reported these issues, all with various different causes, some resolved, mostly not.

I was wondering if the expert eyes of this community could spot any obvious causes.

Thanks. Based on my understanding, It's not WiFi that's draining all the power. I've always have WiFi Scanning Always Available, and the power drain doesn't finish the entire battery overnight.

Also, even with SCANNING ALWAYS AVAILABLE enabled, the Awake Percentage is normally 25% - 30% not 75%.

It's something else.

Restore the backup that you should have made before installing the Xposed framework, or flash the Xposed disabler zip from recovery. Or read the FAQ.

[Xposed General] GermainZ:
Sadly, not many people around here possess a crystal ball to determine what may be helpful to you on advance. If it didn't help you, just say so politely.

If the Xposed disabler zip didn't work, you probably want to make sure it flashed correctly. You can also use adb to disable the Xposed framework if that still doesn't work out for you.

Only brilliant idea here was flashing something before backing up your rom.

[Xposed General] GermainZ:
From the linked post:

Assuming it doesn't work for one reason or the other, you can do this (also from the linked post):
[Xposed General] Rooks:
Yes i've tried three different files, all failed to install.

Guess i've no choice left except adb.
[Xposed General] GermainZ:
You may also want to grab a logcat of the boot loop (also using adb), BTW. That way, the issue might actually be identified and possibly resolved in the future.
[Xposed General] rovo89:
You should mainly try the one attached to the other thread... But it will only work on a custom recovery (CWM/TWRP). Not sure, but yours looks more like a stock recovery.

Also, did you try pressing a key many times as written in my quote?
[Xposed General] esgie:
Uninstaller performs only one move operation (or a copy operation plus delete operation) which is being performed on the files which already exist in the device. No need of involving external files, so the only dir in the zip is the one containg updater-binary file ie. META-INF. binary can be a simple, single-liner shell script which triggers basic shell command performing required, trivial operation. As most custom recoveries accept unsigned zips so signing it is not really required, resulting flashable woulď be a zip file containing singłe no more than 100bytes long file placed in a an empty subdir.

12kb size of such a zip shall be considered as a nothing that you should worry about then.

Probably u are running stock recovery which cąnnot flash zips signeď by anyone except a producer. It is also possible that the screenshots come from the older custom recovery, afair primer builds of cwm-based recoveries looked very similiar to stock ones. In thąt case the only reason of failure that I may think of is the fact that earlier versions of cwm did not neccessary provide a possibility to flash unsigned zips; didn't check but maybe uninstaller zip created by the installer is not signed (which I didnt check so I might be wrong; modern recoveries are flashing zips with no signature without any problems by default but less popular devices might be forced to use a version compiled by someone once ąnd never maintained = the only available). You may want to check if there is any option in your CWM that will enablę flashing such a zips and if it isnt possible, sign the zips on your own using any key, even a test one included to signapk.jar.
[Xposed General] Rooks:
I'll try to get logcat for this issue.

Yes, it's the stock recovery and i've tried several times with hardware keys but safe mode did not work in my scenario.

I've tried three different file with different sizes (143kb, 121kb and 145kb), all these files include the same script ("updater-script" file) by Tungswenty.
[Xposed General] rovo89:
Then you can stop trying any flashable zips, they won't work on stock recovery.

If you can install a custom recovery, that should help. Or flashing only the /system partition of your ROM again. Or check if you can execute "adb shell id" and post the result (should show whether you get root access in recovery to perform the steps manually).
[Xposed General] Rooks:
I've stock rom and recovery, there is no custom rom or recovery available for my device (Toshiba Excite 10 SE aka AT300SE).

So with stock rom and recovery it won't accept any zips and i can't format system partition with stock recovery. And about adb, i don't know where to start. In recovery there is an option to push a file through adb but when i connect my device while this option, my pc does not recognize the device, neither i can update the adb drivers.
