[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MortTheBeast:
So I'm heading out today to pick up an S4 from Craigslist and wanted to install 4 apps on it, 2 that verify real or fake and 2 that do a benchmark... now if I take a spare 2Gb sd card I have, can I just put them on an empty card and they will be visible for me to install using whatever built in file manager the S4 has?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karakatnica:
Yes, find an .apk installation of an app, copy it on your SD card, and you will be able to install it through any file manager.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ipois0n1:
Don't forget to enable "Unknown sources" in "Settings\\Security" or else you won't be able to install them.

Hello everyone,

I need a bit of help.My Note 3 got an update a few days ago. I had not updated the phone and yesterday i updated it to 4.4.2. I recently bought the phone from someone and im guessing that it was rooted before I got it. Not sure what the problem can be. After the update my phone does not pick up the network. It says not registered on network. What can I do to fix this? I have looked and looked on the internet on hos to fix this, but i am coming up with nothing. I dont have money to buy another phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: network issue

The surest way to solve your problem is to:

#1: Go to http://SamMobile.com and download the official N900T

4.4.2 Kitkat NF1 firmware.

#2: Go into twrp or cwm recovery mode and do a full wipe which

includes wipe system, cache, dalvik, data and last but not least

do a factory reset.

#3: Odin flash the official stock firmware which you have downloaded.

Once you have done the above successfully you can root or re-root your

phone with cf-autoroot and then flash/install twrp or cwm recovery.

There are other ways to solve your network issue but this is the surest and easiest

and you will start out with fresh clean stock rooted firmware so you will be able to

flash any compatible custom roms which are available in this Tmobile forum.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] omarluna2:
hello

I have done steps 1-3 not sure ow to cf-autoroot and how to install twrp or cwm recovery? my hone still does not pick up my network
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Misterjunky:
re: tmobile network

Before going any further, if I were you I would borrow a Tmobile N900T

activated sim card from a friend or relative for a few minutes and use it

for a test to see if your phone has the network with that sim card.

If it does, then either your sim card is faulty or not activated.

Good luck!

guys, I updated my phone 2 days ago, phone is running smooth and everything else works correctly but I'm having a charging bug ever since the update...

I leave my phone on charging every night and its always fully charged in the morning, but since this update, first day I woke up and the battery was just 66%. The second morning, the phone was showing 100% charge, I started browsing facebook and in just 5 min, the charging dropped to 90% and in the next couple minutes it dropped to 82, then 71 and finally 66%, after that it runs normally...

anybody else having this issue after the update???

it has to be the firmware issue as it started the day I updated my phone, I'm gonna reset my phone today to see if it fixes it, but man, if this is indeed a firmware issue, I'm done with samsung phones forever. They haven't released a single firmware update for this phone, that isn't riddled with bugs... :mad::mad:

[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FroznArrow:
Anyone else noticing their tab screen randomly staying on?

It's always the same, screen randomly turns on and stays at the locked screen. It does this until I interact with it, or until it runs the battery dry.

It's sporadic, sometimes when charging or not even touched.

I haven't been able to isolate what triggers the screen to turn on.

One night it was charging face up and it just turned on and stayed on.

The other day, I left it in a drawer fully charged and came back to it completely drained.

Most other times it just happens when it's laying around.

Sometimes it stays on with notifications, sometimes no notifications.

But during the nights, I have it on blocking mode, so notifications wouldn't trigger the screen.

I also made sure daydream mode and stay awake are both off.

At a total loss here.

Anyone else have this issue?

I think you did not root the device, before you tried installing dual recovery. What you need to do now is to root the phone (use this tool) and then try to install dual recovery again (select option 1).

Thank you for replying.

I have re-rooted my phone and still the same problem. I found a strange thing. When I exacted the dual recovery, it did not let me to choose an option and there's nothing in the step 3. see the first picture.

When I just double click the install.bat without exacting, I can choose an option but it cannot find the path so I think why it keeps saying "no such file". see the second picture.

[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Hi Guys,

Just a QUICK How-To that will allow you to use the Xfinity TV Go app to watch television episodes over 3G / 4G for non-Verizon users.

As you probably already know, due to a marketing deal between Comcast/Xfinity and Verizon Wireless, access to streaming episodes are disabled for all carriers except Verizon, unless you are on WiFi.

Fortunately, we have some very talented developers that have provided a solution!

This REQUIRES a valid Xfinity/Comcast subscription. If you have Xfinity/Comcast cable you should have a username and password to log in. If you don't know this information, you can initiate a "Chat" from the website, or call Comcast/Xfinity to retrieve your username and/or reset your password. Before you proceed, you should be able to successfully use the TV Go app over WiFi.

First, you must have a working Xposed Framework installation. I'm not sure if this will work with those of you using tethered root such as PIE, but assuming you are able to install Xposed and soft-reboot, it should work. It -definitely- works for anyone with an unlocked bootloader.

Installing Xposed is pretty straightforward, and it is described in other threads so we aren't going into that here. Once Xposed Framework is installed, you can proceed:

You will need to open Xposed, and click "download". This will list all the available Xposed modules. We are looking for a module called "Fake Wifi Connection". The easiest way to find it is by tapping the search button, and typing "Fake Wifi", at which point the module we are looking for should appear at the top of the list. Install the module, then go back to "Modules" in Xposed. Enable the module by checking the box next to "Fake Wifi Connection". This will require a reboot to complete. Once rebooted, open your app drawer and tap on "Fake Wifi Connection".

Unless you have reason to use this for other apps, I suggest you press the "invert" button, which will de-select all apps. Now scroll down the list until you find "TV Go", and place a check mark next to it. Make sure the master switch is set to on, and click "Save".

That's it! Now you can launch the TV Go app, and it will happily stream the episodes of your choosing (assuming they are included in your subscription) over non-Verizon 3G & 4G. If you have a slow connection, you may experience buffering, but this is to be expected in low-bandwidth conditions.

Enjoy! Now you can bypass Comcast/Xfinity's [stupid] Verizon-only restrictions when you aren't on WiFi.

Be sure to use caution if you are on a limited data plan, as video-streaming can consume a substantial amount of bandwidth in a relatively short period of time.

This could potentially allow you to use other apps that restrict you to WiFi-only use as well.

All thanks and credit goes to:

1. The Xposed Framework development team

2. "lemonsqueeze" - the developer behind the "Fake Wifi Connection" Xposed Module

so i was wondering since i have doomkernal on my z2 and was wanting to update my z2 to 4.4 cause i wanted better call quality but i don't know wether or not it would brick my phone so would it if i used the official updater to update my phone to 4.4?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hush66:
You'll need to use the Sony Flash Tool if you want to update your unlocked bootloader device to the latest 314 firmware. But I believe that DooMKernel hasn't been updated to work with this 314 firmware (you will get bootloop if you update firmware and then flash the current DooMKernel).

So you either

(1) update to 314 and keep to stock kernel until DooMKernel is updated to work with 314 firmware

(2) wait for DooMKernel to be updated to support the 314 firmware before you update via Sony Flash Tool and then reflash DooMKernel.
