[General Questions and Answers] Neel009:
since u flashed kitkat in ur htc sensation and u hav done it right, u can guide me to do so......

here is what i understood regarding the kitkat rom

i have to to do partition of my SD card (the link was helpful !!!)

CWM version does not do any help for kitkat rom (i guess !! am still confused about CWM recovery because the link for one v's CWM 6.0 is dead and in Kitkat rom's link it does not say anything or about the CWM version how to flash it :()

my question is

after partition, did you completed the "using the ext partition" and then you flashed it using CWM and what version of CWM did you use ?

and my CWM version is 5.8 should i use it to flash kitkat (without getting bricked) ??

Sorry for asking so many question. My roms thread does not have the details that i generally find in other thread. I want to flash Kitkat so badly.

It does not matter if the rom works or not, still its worth a shot. just want to make sure i do everything right from my side without damaging my handset.
[General Questions and Answers] axljohn:
Sorry.. Even I don't understand the question anymore. But as far as I know, ext4 partitions on an SDcard is never related to flashing ROMs.. It is only used for Link2SD and such..
[General Questions and Answers] AoDev:
Yes, so, somehow it looks like during the installation, these Kitkat roms were expecting an ext4 partition on the SD Card.

If you look in Internet, you can find things like that for example:

(Damn, my xda noob account does not let me post links, search youtube and use this video ID: ?v=bUMhn6geaUM

They talk about this ext4 partition on the SD card, why they do it and what they use to do it. (Partition Magic)

Maybe if I had just removed my SD card , the install script would not have tried to use the SD card, but let's not add more confusion :P

As I said, CWM (I had 5.8) did not work to create a correct ext4 partition on my SD Card. (the install failed again)

The funny thing is I even paid 2$ for CWM xd

I

replaced

CWM by 4ext recovery. website: 4ext.net (install the 4EXT Recovery Updater)

Then I created the ext4 partition on the SD Card and both kitkat roms I tried were installed successfully.

(In 4ext recovery, install from zip, select your rom zip, go.)

btw, I backed up everything before (but I guess it's obvious) , once, I had to reinstall my backup from recovery because it would not boot.

have you found a fix to this yet? I'm having the same issue and getting ready to just return the phone and buy something else. My home network is fine, the other tablets, phones, laptops are having 0 issues, Yet my GS5 is either dropping or something, it seems to run horrible slow and things just time out.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
No, and the reason that we don't know is that you didn't provide any useful details about your situation.

If you think that someone can do more than make a random guess implies that you think that there are only one or two possible causes. But most issues, including this one, have hundreds of possible causes. So random guesses are not terribly useful. Nor are we psychic, so the only way to efficiently narrow it down is to look for anomolies in your configuration. Which you haven't described.

You should be providing as much technical detail as possible, e.g. what is your home router model & it's firmware version and configuration details, phone firmware version, any specific error messages, any observed pattern, a logcat if you can and anything else that seems relevant.

Solution

Hey guys,

I had this problem before, This is an issue with your samsung device and your ISP. They aren't compatible with each other.

Solution:

You must just block clients3.google.com in your modem/router. You can use Block Web Sites section in your modem/router.

Every thing has a solution.

Enjoy your device WIFI. :cowboy:
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brooklynite:
I have teh same issue on my S5 Cricket. The WIFI does NOT disconnect. Its connected however I don't have internet connection. Turning the WIFI on and OFF fixes the issue, for a short while until it happens again in an hour. Sometimes I slick on a link and wait and wait just to find out the darn WIFI is not connected to the internet. (probably not even connected to my router properly eg, I cant see my laptop shared drives for example).

This has something to do with saving battery or somthing. WIFI internals shut down, even though the icon on top of the screen still shows I'm connected.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhinor:
Smart Network Switch

Your phone thinks that your WiFi is unstable and dumps the connection to go back to 4g. Why exactly, who knows, but it's easy to turn off the "smart" network switch. Simply hold down the WiFi icon for 2 seconds to get into the connections section. Right there at the top is the smart network switch section ... just uncheck the selection box. Easy.

Lastly, people like fffft need to get over themselves. The fix for the original poster's question was easy, but since fffft didn't know it, he decided to instead attack in order to make himself feel superior. How sad and pathetic does someone have to be to troll forums looking for opportunities to attack and belittle someone else?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fredjik:

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lb92:
solution to wifi disconnect problem

I was looking for an answer to a different wi-fi question when I saw this.

I'm on AT&T with my S5.

Under the Wi-Fi settings I have an option for "Smart Network Switch" which says it Automatically switches between Wi-Fi and mobile networks to maintain a stable internet connection. Anytime a computer says it automatically does something for me; I typically say no thanks. I don't typically like my devices making assumptions of what I like, don't like or want to do. So I have that option unchecked. I never have an issue with the network stability once I've connected to a specific wi-fi connection.

Not sure if that will help you all or not. But thought I'd share.

so under Settings --> Quick Settings --> Wi-Fi you will find a check box option named "Smart network switch", untick it, this should take care of the problem.

Same problem

Hi, I have the same problem. Here some info:

- Device: Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F), Stock, not rooted

- Android version: 5.0

- Kernel version: 3.4.0-5640614 (2015-09-01)

- 'Smart network switch' is turned off

- 'Always allow scanning' is disabled

The problem started 2-3 days ago. When I turn on WiFi/WLAN the phone constantly turns it back off and on again. Didn't happen before, didn't change anything on the router (I have no access to it :( ) and didn't install a new app (as far as I can remember). I don't know if it only happens on this access point.

I made a log file (adb logcat) but am not sure if it contains sensitive information, is it save to share online?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeyakaspce1130:
The logcat doesn't contain any sensitive passwords.

I'm have the exact same problem.

Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900T)

CyanogenMod (13.0-20151203)

Android 6.0 (Marshmallow)

Baseband (G900TUVU1ANE6)

Smart network switch: disabled

Always allow scanning: disabled

What's happening is as soon as my Wi-Fi finishes authenticating and connects, it is immediately disconnected and tries again. No other devices in my house are having any issues, so that eliminates the router. When I factory reset my phone the Wi-Fi begins to work again, so that eliminates my phones hardware. The confusing part is that I installed a bunch of apps such as AdGuard that could possibly cause an issue but everything worked and this started out of nowhere. Also, I factory reset my phone AGAIN and AGAIN, everything worked and out of nowhere while I was looking at my screen while idling, I watched as the Wi-Fi connection dropped and began the disconnect/reconnect loop...

I'm assuming it has to be a software issue because it only started when I updated to a newer Cyanogen. I'm about to test if other Wi-Fi networks have this problem and I'm also going to look through and post a log.

If anyone has any questions or suggestions that may lead to a fix, PLEASE help!

Thanks

The title says it. My Wind SGH-T959W's (Galaxy S 4G) 4G is not working on the ROM that I am using. The ROM that I am using currently is Octane 2.3.6 for T959V, but all ROMs for that phone work on mine. 4G Only works on a few ROMs that I installed, but they aren't Deodexed (which i need). Is there a way to get the 4G to work on the phone?

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
If it says "H" next to the signal bar, you're using "4G". The stock Samsung ROM uses 4G instead of showing H, all other ROMs show H.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FriendlyZombie:
There isn't an H either. I think the problem is that the ROM has support for only T-Mobile, but I'm just looking that there is a way i could get 4G with Wind.

[MENTION=3384901]getochkn[/MENTION] made a thread for the Wind LB6 modem here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1941078

There doesn't seem to be a flashable zip for 2.3.6 but if you update to anything newer than ICS you'll be able to flash it.

I actually recommend you give CM11 a go. 2.3.6 is now 2 years old and your phone is vulnerable to a lot of exploits that Samsung never patched but are fixed with more recent ROMs. KitKat runs amazingly well on this phone and you won't have the bloat that the stock Samsung rom comes with too.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FriendlyZombie:
I thought about that earlier, but I predicted that the battery life would be very bad, do you know anything about the battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Check out the CM11 thread, there haven't been complaints about the ROM. There was an issue with a Google Play Services update causing some battery drain, but I released an update a few days ago that had a patch fixing that.

It's a solid ROM, it still amazes me how well it works on this phone :).
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FriendlyZombie:
The rom works great, but it keepson bringing up themessage "The Process android.process.acore has stopped"

any way to fix this?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Try doing a factory reset, if that doesn't work, do full wipes and then reinstall the ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FriendlyZombie:
I fixed the problem, and when I first flashed it the 4G was fully functional and i was alright. But then today the 4G wont work no matter what :(

Maybe i should flash the modem you gave me?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FriendlyZombie:
It wouldnt let me flash, is there any way fix it?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FriendlyZombie:
I got 4G working by wiping everything, and installing the rom again. Then I installed gapps and 4G wont work. I did all of that again but didnt install gapps and it works great! :good: The ROM is actually very good for this phone and I will probably keep it like this.

But I still need the gapps for automatic updates, and very easily downloading apps. Mobogenie just doesnt do it for me.

And Candy Crush wont work as when i launch it, it stays at the loading screen then just closes to the home screen.

Any way to fix these issues?

I have an Australian S5. I went to England for 2 weeks and used a UK SIM card. All was fine.

Since coming back to Australia and using the Australia SIM my 4G shows I have internet but to get the internet to work I need to turn mobile network off (4G disappears) then turn it back on again. Afterwards 4G works fine.

When I have the problem, 4G will show but there is no activity. If I try to check email for example the email app (default app) starts to refresh and then just stops like there is no new email.

When I was in England I had a notification that there was new software. I updated the software over the air. All seemed well.

The phone is completely stock and not rooted. I haven't tried anything to resolve really.. except these two things:

- Rebooting phone - problem comes back after a while say 24 hours

- setting the APN. If I choose another APN, for some reason the one I was originally on is re-selected somehow. I don't know how, may be the provider has some control over this? I use Telstra.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiquidSolstice:
It is damn near IMPOSSIBLE to actualy, truly "brick" these devices. There are way too many safeguards in place.

Be careful before announcing that you are "bricked". Bootlooping (which is what your device was doing) is not "bricked". As long as you have fastboot, you can always reflash recovery, and then use recovery to reflash your custom ROM (or you can bypass all of that and reflash the factory images from fastboot).

Don't panic, you know more than you think you know. Just don't get freaked out, and read. You'll be fine.
