I see someone commented that the Lineage on getdroidtips is not for A8-50 at all but for A7600H and the filename seems to confirm that, so can someone share a proper A8-50 Lineage from 4pda or elsewhere please? I can't even register on there, as even with Google Translate the registration form is undecipherable (see attached screenshot).

EDIT: I see the Lineage ROM has been posted here https://xdaforums.com/lenovo-a850/development/rom-unofficial-lineageos-14-1-lenovo-t3764849 but it sounds so buggy as to be unusable, with "no system space for installing Gapps", "Magisk / SuperSu installation not working" and "mobile data problems (data work whenever they want)...".

Are there any decent 7.x or higher custom ROMs without these bugs?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] calderonr:
Guys...Im not a total newbie but I have a couple of question. I have my SM-N900T rooted with N900TTMBBMI7..used odin, CF-Root etc etc and its working great...so I have dabbled enough in this so I am a bit dangerous. I have CWM recovery and Titanium backup and can/do make backups before I add any apps, etc.

I would like to upgrade to N900TUVUDNF1 and I have seen that in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2761451 there is a deodexed, rooted version by Jovy23 so that is great...I do have a couple of questions I want to be clear on before I start this process :

1) I see that people talk about needing a specific bootloader...do I? Can anyone clarify that for me?

2) I have lots of apps installed on my N900TTMBBMI7 now as you can imagine. Would the process be to install N900TUVUDNF1 with odin as per the instructions and THEN, install Titanium backup and restore my apps? I dont want to spend a lot of time getting the phone back to what I have now if I can avoid it.

3) Will the N900TUVUDNF1 install wipe out my CWM recovery ? Do I need to re-install it after flashing N900TUVUDNF1 ?

4) If something goes really wrong, the process to revert would be to install CWM recovery and restore my N900TTMBBMI7 backup?

Anything else you guys would like to advise me of will be greatly appreciated...

thanks!!

re: NF1 firmware

#1: The NF1 bootloader is part of the official Samsung N900T NF1 Kitkat firmware.

Here is the direct download link for the firmware:

chrome://mega/contenthttp:

https://mega.co.nz/#!ioglFaQD!IzrjOKfoQXnfzTVjItUnjVvqzVSoG4s0wkKLTvit9BY

#2: You will need to restore your apps with titanium backup after odin

flashing the official stock NF1 firmware.

#3: Odin flashing the NF1 firmware will wipe cwm recovery so you will need

to odin flash TWRP recovery which can be found here:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.2.0-hltetmo-4.4.img.tar

#4: Before flashing TWRP you will need to odin flash cf-autoroot which

can be found here:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/45687485/CF-Auto-Root-hltetmo-hltetmo-smn900t.tar.md5

#5: Once you flash NF1 firmware you cannot revert back to MI7 firmware

it will either bootloop or get stuck on boot screen if you try doing it.

In other words you cannot downgrade the firmware once it's updated to NF1.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] calderonr:
Wow, thanks for the quick reply..I am glad you answered because I was totally under the impression that reverting back was indeed possible..I would have been in a wold of hurt if something went wrong and I could not revert since I use this device for work as well. So this of course begs a few more followup questions

1) The firmware at https://mega.co.nz/#!ioglFaQD!IzrjOK...4s0wkKLTvit9BY I assume is NOT rooted and therefore I would have to root with CF-Root etc...correct?

2) What is exactly the bootloader in this context? You are not refering to TWRP/CWM I assume? Is it the built in code to get the startup going? I am familiar with Linux bootloader like LILO and GRUB...is it the same concept?

3) Understood on restoring apps with Titanium backup...you refer only to the official firmware. Are you suggesting that I should not use the stock rooted NF1 I found?

4) Understood that flashing NF1 will wipe out CWM. You state to odin flash TWRP. Does that mean I should NOT use CWM and switch to TWRP? I am more familiar with CWM and I would like to continue using that one if possible.

5) Lastly and more importantly, why will reverting back to MI7 will cause the bootloop or stuck on boot screen? Any solution to that at all?

Again, thanks for your suggestions and quick reply!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
Be careful who you listen to on xda.

If your knox warranty flag is 0x0 DO NOT follow those instructions if you want it to stay that way.

To check, boot into download mode (reboot with volume+power+voldown.

If it's 0x0 and you want to keep it that way, you'll want to know that if you upgrade, flashing a custom recovery WILL ALWAYS trip knox once your bootloader is on kitkat.

The caveat is that if you want kitcat, you have to upgrade your bootloaders for things to work properly.

Now, with all that out of the way...

I would recommend going up to NF4 (bypassing NF1) as it is the latest.

I have a link in my sig with all the files for NF4 which also contains the upgrade method that doesn't trip knox.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] calderonr:
Toastido...Thanks for the reply...I have already tripped the warranty counter so lets say that at this point I am OK with that :)

So a few questions for you :

1) I am OK going to NF4 and I assume that the files/links you pointed me to below will still work on a tripped knox flag? Correct?

2) Does the same apply that if I go to NF4 there is no way to revert back to MI7?

3) Does your NF4 upgrade link/instructions contain the bootloader needed ? I assume so but want to make sure just in case I need anything else other than what you pointed me to. I am asking this because you stated "if you want kitcat, you have to upgrade your bootloaders for things to work properly. "

4) Can I continue to use CWM or do I have to switch to TWRP?

5) What about rooting? Is your firmware rooted or do I need to do it myself? If so, what do you recommend for rooting?

Thanks!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
Hey!

1) yes. I'd recommend just flashing the full package in desktop odin in that case. Power of your device completely for 10 to 30 seconds then boot directly to download mode.

2) yes. Once you go up from jb to kk you cannot go back. This is due to bootloader update efuses.

3) yes they do. :)

4) you can use cwm if you want, just make sure to get the correct one. Usually they are tagged kk or 4.4. Using jb versions will no longer work.

I assume you meant nf4, but the same applies to either.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] calderonr:
Yeap...I meant NF4 and I sent in an edit but you beat me to it..ok...I will give this a try...I did ask one more question on the edit that I am not sure where it went...

5) About rooting...if I use odin to flash the full package as I have done before (selecting PDA), how would you recommend I root the NF4 since I assume the stock firmware is NOT rooted. Do you recomend CF-Root?

thanks aod sorry to pestering :) I want to make sure I do this right the first time!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
Np. As for number 5, yes, CF-Auto-Root is the best (maybe the only?) method for fw beyond ne6. If you do this and find supersu missing, a simple install from the play store afterwards will fix you right up.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] calderonr:
Toastido :

Not trying to be dense here :) but help me understand this. Its re. the inability to go back to MI7 from NF4. You say it has to do with the bootloader, BUT, if I take a CWM backup BEFORE I flash NF4, would not that backup contain the MI7 bootloader in it, so when/if I restore the backup, would not that also restore the MI7 bootloader and the device would not even notice it had flashed NF4 before? Granted I would have to re-clash the JB compatible CWM before I restored, but would that not work? If not, can you explain why?

Thanks!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] toastido:
No it would not work. The reason, as stated in a previous post, is due to eFused bootloaders. Once the efuse is tripped, it cannot be reset, and the bootloader will fail if it's value is lower than the fused value. Otherwise just flashing the bootloader backwards would work. If you go the odin route you will be protected by odin mode. If you try via recovery of a nandroid that contains the bootloader, it'll either just not work, or (worse) brick your device.

The fuses are tripped in a sequential order. 0,1,2,3 etc. JB BL can only operate on fused value of 1 or lower. KK BL can only install and function (depending on current version) at 3 or lower.

NB4 will fuse to 2. NE6 through NF4 I believe will fuse to 3, thus preventing the JB BL from functioning.

Hope that helps.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] the_rooter:
Hey guys as you can tell I made the switched after I had and unfortunate issue with my previous phone. Pretty much the act of god and stupid me I didnt have insurance on it so I had to start a new line and fork over the 220$ price tag, but anyways. I got the phone last night, and it's an amazing phone. For some reason i always been afraid to try out HTC. For some reason seemed to complex to me, but after I did more research it actually isn't.

I have a few questions and maybe I can get some help:

1) I follow root junky on youtube, and pretty much watched all his videos on the Verizon M8. From my understanding after reading through the forums that firewater will not work on newer m8 models, and that I would have to pay 25$ and get sunshine. This true about firewater? I had seen a few post about people saying it works, and more saying that it wont. I do have the newest sense 6, and and the update came to the phone.

2) I also noticed about the temporary root access apk, and that with a phone reboot it resets itself. So if i do the root and then obtain the root and use titanium back up that actually resets also?

3) I went threw the forum again about water proof/ dust proof, drop proof cases. Anyone here have one or used one and what do you think?

4) Lastly if I do the sunshine is that considered full root, and then I can add twrp through flashify, and then roms if I decide to go that route?

Thanks in advance,

the_rooter
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] silver04v:
Firewater is working on some people's still. It depends what hardware the phone has for some reason. So your process to root and soff will be, following the threads here.

Use weak sauce to temp root, download SuperSU after, do not open the app or anything. Don't try and update binaries or anything.

Then use firewater, using the correct directions, there's 3 different sets if I recall. Just pick the right one that is for using weak sauce root.

Then if firewater works great, you'll be soff and unlocked. If not, buy sunshine and run it. Then you'll get soff and unlocked.

You'll then get rid of SuperSU and uninstall weak sauce app as well.

Then flash a recovery. I'd suggest fastboot flashing it, but I guess flashify would work. But you'll already have fastboot working if you tried firewater so might as well flash twrp with fastboot.

Once you have your recovery, download the latest SuperSU zip found here in chainfires thread and flash it in twrp. Then reboot and you will be permanent rooted. Then you can flash all the Roms or whatever you want.

Hope that helps.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] the_rooter:
Did anyone find out the difference in hardware the phones that work, and is there a way to check on that or no?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] silver04v:
No, you just try firewater. It really is easy. And if it works great, if not, no big deal. It will tell you, whelp, this won't ever work for your device is it fails. Then just use sunshine. Just read the how to threads and it really is simple. Droidmodderx on YouTube has a couple videos that are Verizon specific that may lend a hand too.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] the_rooter:
I just paid the 25 dollars and now I am root free s off and twrp :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] the_rooter:
I got it up and running. Right now trying gpe
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] the_rooter:
After getting s off I am on a custom rom and recovery question is. If I wanna do S-OFF I JUST run sunshine again correct? I can just keep doing that back and forth?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] Roefastford:
Once your s-off you will stay s-off unless they release an update ota and it can affect s-off and you flash it, in that case sunshine is supposed to work for your device once again. Just dont flash any new update until you know for sure that it wont affect s-off.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] garywojdan81:
Pretty sure once you're s-off, you're s-off until you restore s-on. Flashing a custom rom won't change the secure write status.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] thunderbls:
Once your soff and custom recovery there is no need to complete this process again your done with it. You can flash ROMs in recovery if you don't like it.. Wipe and load something else : )

Edit.... Lol two of you beat me to the answer...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] the_rooter:
Thanks guys for the answers I don't plan on s-off just thinking more about if and when it comes time to sell to someone. Right now I am using gpe rom and it's running great.

Battery drain with or without wake lock, doesn't matter. :good:
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] k3lcior:
It has nothing to do with Android, on average i'm getting 3days with 6-7 hours screen on time on every charge.

So either you have app that drains battery or your battery is malfunctioning. (or both)
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] thelossa:
Well, I don't think it's an app that is draining battery as, there are no wake locks and I don't use apps that run in background except Google apps. I don't think it's a hardware error either because this doesn't always happen. It started to happen a few days after I got the Nexus 7 half a year ago, then stopped and started randomly. It hasn't happened for at least 2 or 3 month until one week ago.

I also own an Android phone(a Samsung Galaxy S2, I know it's old) and wake locks happen so frequently, sometimes I wake up (after only 6-8 hours) to my phone having discharged completely. Betterbatterystats shows wake locks on my phone most of the time but they are so generic and not attributed to an app(i.e show up in the partial wake locks tab) that I can't troubleshoot. And why do I always have to troubleshoot? Why would I have to turn off all services to ensure I get through the day with 1 charge. I don't even use my phone a lot.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Aerowinder:
Let us see the BBS logs for your phone.

About the tablet, flo has never had good idle drain, but this is likely a problem with your wifi. Before you go to bed, turn off wifi and reboot. See if you can still reproduce the 3.0%/hr drain.

If that doesn't make a difference, recommend trying stock ROM and especially kernel.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Servaas:

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] faststart:
One word of advice, regardless. Do not let your battery drain completely. Ever.

Lost my Nexus 7 like that, the battery life is great so I was lazy to enough to charge it before going to sleep (it was on a very low level then). Got a thin brick in the morning :(
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ruzell:
Charge it before hitting 20% battery to be safe. That is what I do. It expands battery life longer for me

Is this a confirmed phenomenon? I hear a lot of people say it's a fairytale and some people swear it works. Any official links confirming it or anything like that?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] ruzell:
It does work besides there is no damage if you let it die just a few times but if you let the battery discharged till it dies frequently then you are damaging the battery. This is more common on Li-on battery as they drain more quickly overtime due to frequent loss of power.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] bentleyboy:
Hmm. Good to know, thanks. I rarely let stuff die completely, but now I'll actively avoid it.
