[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
I feel like OP (Original Poster. That's you Sut1576) is fairly fresh towards stuff like this, so something tells me he'll need an even simpler explanation.

- Yes, you can download movies from the internet, but that's also illigal and not allowed to discuss on XDA, so you'll have to find another place to ask about this.

- You can also rip (copy) your own movies to your computer and transfer them to your Ultra (legal as long as it's for personal use).

- The Ultra will natively play back the most common formats (.mp4, .mkv, .avi), and the stock player is very good, but if a movie won't play, then do as Zaxharu and SpyderTracks have said and install a third party video player from the Play Store (I personally prefer MX Player)

So just plug your Ultra to your computer, make a new folder called "Movies" or something and drag-and-drop the files into the folder, and that's it.

I am struggling to root my Samsung Galaxy SIII version 4.3. I cannot use a PC currently and tried using Towelroot but it said it doesn't support this device. I tried using master root but displayed a purple box an didn't respond. I also used Z4root but that didn't respond. Any help please ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shimp208:
Which carrier variant of the S3 are you trying to root? If it's the Verizon variant I would recommend checking out this guide on how to root Android 4.3 on the Verizon Galaxy S3. If it's not the Verizon variant I would recommend taking a look at the XDA Root Directory Samsung device section, and choosing the appropriate model Galaxy S3 you have which will take you to the correct rooting guide for your device. For future reference questions like this should be posted in the Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting section or your appropriate device forum Q&A section. Let me know if you have any questions I'll be happy to help you out :).

If you upgrade your device through the latest official OTA to Android 4.4.2 towelroot will work just fine to root your device. Otherwise using a computer is going to be your only option I'm afraid.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m11nk:
hi

Recently i feel that my nexus 4 is having trouble connecting to network, the network seems to be unstable. sometimes full bar, suddenly drop to 1-2 bar or even blank at all. first I thought the operator I use is having trouble. But my wife, who is using the same operator with me, have no problem at all using her Samsung Grand 2 duos.

So I try to switch the card. I put my card to my wife Samsung Grand 2 and my wife card into my nexus 4. my card in samsung grand 2 work just fine. network stable full bar and on the other hand, my wife card experience the same problem in my nexus 4, the network unstable

so I suspect the problem is in my OS, since as far as I recall, the problem start rising after I update my nexus 4 to kitkat 4.4.4 through OTA updater.

Question is:

1. how to be sure that the problem is in my nexus 4 (the kitkat or maybe the hardware) instead of the network problem?

2. How to downgrade my nexus 4 to 4.2 or 4.3 instead of 4.4.4 that I'm using right now?

Thanks

[Galaxy Tab S General] jayochs:
...and then expect power saving mode to work. or any mode upon a factory reset for that matter.

i totally soft bricked my tab because i froze the stock touchwiz launcher a couple days ago since i use nova...then i had the bright idea to try ultra power saving mode. well, it completely locked up the device to a black screen because that launcher is a part of the TW laucnher, which i froze. there was no way to turn off power saving mode either because it wasn't in the dropdown, and you couldn't do it under settings..so i rebooted the device. big mistake.

upon reboot, it was still in powersaving mode and was freezing at the samsung splash screen. completely soft bricked, couldn't do a thing. went into recovery, did a factory reset, rebooted thinking all was well.

set everything up, then setup wizard force closed (probably bc i froze something) and then the device just doesn't have a launcher...because DUH, a factory reset isn't restoring anything i deleted/froze lol...

so now i'm sitting here doing the Odin firmware flash back to stock. SIGH. all bc i wanted to see how ultra power saving mode worked. STUPID.

but HUGE thanks to open1your1eyes0 for posting the Odin stock file. you should all download it and keep it on your HD just incase..never know.

now to trip the knox counter again and re-root lol

I wanted to install a new custom mod after purchasing a new SM-P605. I rooted my device, and searched for a while on how to install a custom recovery (TWRP). I downloaded ODIN and flashed it a couple of times but it didn't work, I kept getting a "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" and the screen freezes.

Then I tried Rashr's flash tool to install TWRP for me, and afterwards selected "boot into recovery".

Now i'm stuck in the same screen, but whenever I tried to restart, i get back to it, and can't get back in the system.

What can I do?

This time, about a third of the way through the process hung for a few minutes then the device restarted without warning and now its stuck in a loop where it starts normally

Then says

RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING

[Sprint LG G2] renold458:
Hello,

Ive attempted to install CM 11 M8 SNAPSHOT (the most recent) with a compatible GAPPS package. Im using TWRP 2.7.10 and I did a full wipe (Formatted Data, wiped Dalvik, System, and Cache, basically everything except Internal Storage). I flashed Cyanogenmod, then flashed GAPPS, rebooted and got stuck into a bootloop where the LG logo would be there for a few seconds, go away, then come back and repeat. I know how to recover my phone but I would love to get CM working. Any ideas?
[Sprint LG G2] official.xian:
Did you take the Sprint OTA update before you flashed CM? If so, you'll have to downgrade your radio from LS980ZVA/C to LS980ZV7/8. This is because the ZVA and ZVC updates patch Loki and break compatibility with other ROMs (like CM). I had this issue and tried flashing CM probably 10 times before I understood the problem.
[Sprint LG G2] renold458:
Okay makes sense, but wont I lose Spark speeds from the downgrade?
[Sprint LG G2] official.xian:
You will lose Sprint Spark compatibility if you downgrade your radio to anything lower than ZVA. LS980ZVA introduces the Tri-Band spectrum (which Sprint nicknamed "Spark"), so if you're radio is below ZVA, you won't have Spark. :cowboy:
[Sprint LG G2] renold458:
Damn, cyanogenmod or spark :/ decisions decisions.
[Sprint LG G2] official.xian:
I went with CyanogenMod as I don't use Spark often. But if you're in an area with good Spark coverage, that's definitely a hard choice.

Personally I literally don't have coverage at my house. Sprint gave us an Airave as a customer retention policy. But I would have 4G LTE at my college campus.
[Sprint LG G2] renold458:
My data connection at home is hit or miss, the ROM I use says I have Spark but idk the difference of when Im on Spark or LTE within the ROM, also I dont think I actually have Spark in RI so that may be leaning me towards CM instead. LTE is good enough. Do I just have to contact Sprint and tell them I have spotty connection to get an Airave and is it portable (college, unlike yours, has TERRIBLE Sprint service)? If so CM is a definite choice.
[Sprint LG G2] official.xian:
You would have to be in a "No Service" or "Off-Network Roaming" area according to Sprint's Nationwide Coverage Site. Where I live is an "Off-Network Roaming" area. When we moved here we got an email from Sprint about not having coverage. If, according to the site, you have no signal at your house, you should call them and ask about it.

No, it connects to your router/modem via ethernet cable and has an antenna that sticks to a window to provide GPS and phone coverage.

The following may not be true! I believe that Sprint's Spark is LTE. But I don't know much about the differences between CDMA/GSM/3G/4G/WiMax/LTE/Spark/Edge/etc. so don't take that for granted.
[Sprint LG G2] renold458:
Ill just give it a shot! If I lose LTE with the old radio Ill just flash a stock ROM. Probably learn a few things on the way. Thank you for your help! Final question, can you point me to a radio downgrade guide? Kinda hate fishing through forum threads.
[Sprint LG G2] official.xian:
Yeah no problem. I found that in order to get the radio to stick I had to reset the phone using the ZV8 TOT file and LG Flash Tools. If that is the case I can help with that. Otherwise check out this thread. Savoca wrote a fairly good tutorial on getting ROMs working on the G2 and what all the different radios are/do. If you follow his directions and can't get CyanogenMod working, you'll have to restore to a TOT.

Glad to help!
[Sprint LG G2] FoxyMayhem:
While I'm pretty savvy with windows, this is my first android product. I have my LG G2 LS980ZVC rooted, and I want to install Cyanogenmod 11. I have the nightly from yesterday downloaded to my PC.

As I understand, I need to downgrade my software to get rid of Spark.

1) Which version should I downgrade to?

2) Where can I find files like that?

3) Should I back up my current setup before I do?

4) The FreeGee software says it doesn't support ZVC, and so I am unable to install the backup software through there (I was trying to follow this youtube tutorial [turns out the url is prohibited before I post more!]). If I should backup, what backup software should I use instead?

Once downgraded, I need to install cyanogen mod. Can I follow that video tutorial? If not, then I'm going to end up asking a lot more questions.

That thread you linked has a whole lot of red letters saying I don't belong there unless I already understand a bunch of stuff I don't. So how do I learn those things?

Cheers!
