[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nielsvg:
Hello,

i use a G900F and had root with towelroot.

i did an update on my Phone today to G900FXXU1ANG8. the installation went perfect.

but after the update i tried a new search for a software update and now i got the notification:

the operating system on your device has been modified in an unauthorized way. try downloading software updates using samsung kies on your pc or visit a customer service center.

I also use the app Phone info and when i check my knox counter it says 0X0 so normally this isnt triggerd.

when i connect to kies it just says my Phone has the latest software?

Hi,

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] xBkKx:
Does this phone get LTE on T-Mobile and if so how can I tell if I'm getting it? I get H+/4G/DC data icons depending on the ROM but the fastest down/up speeds I get ever is 14mbps/2mbps 99% of the time I'm getting 5 down/1 up with full bars the T-Mobile coverage map shows my entire area Dallas, TX with high speed Internet. Am I not getting LTE? I see people posting 25+ speeds I have never achieved anything near that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] PUTALE:
I am using ATT phone on T Mobile and I can get LTE without any issue. Based on your speed, it appears to me that you are getting HSPA+ speed. Have you checked your APN to make sure you set it as fast.t-mobile.com (or make sure you set what T Mobile recommends: http://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-10361)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] xBkKx:
Yes my APN is the T-Mobile US LTE, my speeds are no different with the fast.t-mobile.com APN or the epc.tmobile.com APN. If I set my APN identical to that link it just switches back it won't let me use those settings. Does this mean I don't get LTE when phone first boots it doesn't get data for awhile and shows this
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] nooton:
If you compare:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AT&T_Mobility

LTE bands:

700 MHz Block B	17	LTE	4G	Active	Main LTE band providing complete coverage

1700 MHz AWS	4	LTE	4G	Active	Additional LTE band for more bandwidth in select markets

1900 MHz PCS	2	LTE	4G	Active	Additional LTE band for more bandwidth in select markets[31]

2300 MHz WCS	30	LTE	4G	Active[32]

and

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-Mobile_US

1700/2100 MHz AWS	4	LTE	4G	In Service/Building out	Covers 230 million POPs as of July, 2014 [78][79]

700 MHz Block A	12	LTE	4G	A-block rollout has begun	Spectrum acquired from Verizon Wireless [80]

1900 MHz PCS	2	LTE	4G	On air	[81]

And the AT&T GN2 (i317) supports Band 2 and 17, so it makes sense that you could get LTE on both networks.

[LG Optimus 4X HD] 1aggelos1:
Hello everyone. I know many people have the almost the same problem as I but i didnt find anywhere the exact problem that i have.

So before 2 weeks i tried to plug my phone to the wall charger to charge it and it appeared in the notification menu that my phone is charging slow(like when you connect it with the PC its says the same). Before 3 days my problem extended . My phone had like 3% percentage battery and was about to shut off so i tried to plug it so i can charge it. My phone restarted and showed that i have 40% battery , like in 5 mins it charged 37% ...

This happened again the next day with the difference that when my phone restarted and it had 34% battery . This is not possible !!! The third evidence and more annoying is that the other day my phone was 38% and i plugged it to charge it, i had only facebook messenger open amd 3g and my phone discharged in 10 mins!!! The battery notification was showing that the phone is charging but not only didnt charged but also it discharged 40% in like 10 mins!! Anyone has any clue about this problem?

I am using v10h and i have the phone for 11 months now. I dont know if its problem bjt i guess not because all this happened during night when the temperature is like 20 degrees or less outside.

So far I tried different cable, other roms but the problem remains..

Any suggestion to my problem will really help me out

Update your recovery and wipe again. Also there is a option in your settings if you just want to wipe your data
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
A custom recovery purposely does not wipe the sd card. If you want to wipe that, in twrp, go to wipe, advanced, and wipe the internal sdcard. Cwm has something along those lines too.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leart369:
Hello buddies,

I am having a sort of problem with my M8.

Just to make it clear from the beginning I'm pretty much a noob in this.

So after I got my phone debranded byba rooting method and had twrp installed I wanted to flash the stock recovery in my device so I can get OTA updates.

The momental state of the device: stock firmware 1.54.401.10, S-On, tempered, unlocked bootloader.

At first everything was going fine, but when I typed the command to erase cache before flashing the recovery.img, cmd in my pc crashed.

Now when I connect my device, in cmd I can see it only when I check usb debugging, when it's unchecked there isn't any device on the list unauthorised like it should be.

When I enter the command to reboot into fastboot, my device just reboots and when I get into fastboot manually cmd doesnt recognize it.

Just to make clear I don't think it's the drivers fault, I installed/uninstalled them several times and tried it in another pc and the same thing happens.

I messed up again something with the drivers, now I get two devices with the same name in fastboot

[IMG="2 same devices"]http://i57.tinypic.com/2iuxohu.png[/IMG]

When i try to reboot now into fastboot it says: error: more than one device andemulator

How?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leart369:
Firstly I installed a tiny program for drivers, where i uninstalled all the drivers which had been in relation with the phone(i can't remember the program name, i will post it later when i'm at home) then i revoked the usb debugging and connected my phone with usb debug off and let the pc install the drivers by itself. After that i checked debugging and fastboot recognized it with adb devices, i rebooted into bootloader and typed fastboot devices(it showed my device).

Flashed the recovery and done :)

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Like some kind of PC clean-up program?

I knew it had to be a driver issue, but the fastboot response you were getting was odd or at least new to me. So glad you sorted it out. Nice work!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leart369:
More like a driver manager, i'll post the name when i get on my laptop

The programm is called usbdeview, sorted my drivers by date and uninstalled all drivers that have been installed these days. And then connected the phone again wihout installing anything just let windows do his job :)

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] GeoNo1:
Hi everyone, very upset about what happened to my universal, the slot used for recharging snapped of the other day from the motherboard. I have taken the case off, and soldered the 4 connecting points of the slot itself, however it does not recharge still.

It has 4 prongs underneath, relaying to 4 metal strips on the mother board, must these be soldered, could I just solder these 4 pins to the motherboard in its entirety together, or must they be individually seperated.

Sorry if you find my english hard to understand, its kinda hard to explain everything

Any help would be gladly appreciated, I dont know what to do if this doesnt work as 02 said I need to replace the whole motherboard for 100 pounds when it just needed soldering

[Sprint LG G3] Androidfreakz:
For that slight lag we get especially going into the app drawer I figured I try switching to Art instead of Dalvik and BAM lag was gone and feels much snapper for sure.
[Sprint LG G3] Spaniard85:
I do think it made my G3 snapper, but over time it just created more issues than it solved. I recently started using Nova Launcher Prime again and it's definitely faster than the stock one. That's a good enough bump in speed for me for now.

I did this about 4 days after owning the device, and since then, its been nothing but positives for me. It also seems as if it REALLY boosts battery life (almost doubled mine)

[Sprint LG G3] mm55502003:
Just switched to art myself yesterday... The lag is nonexistence now which is awesome, but is there a way to make some of the app compatible? (I searched but came up with,nothing) sorry for the stupid question
[Sprint LG G3] Androidfreakz:
The lag exist just a few secs in the app drawer when you flip through the 1st or 2nd page. To another post you don't notice lag if you use a launcher. I personally like to use the stock launcher.

If you want to root, do it now. OTAs can break root or patch the vulnerability. Never take an OTA until it's been confirmed safe or rootable.

You can root and then unroot to be safe to take the OTA update. There are some guides on how to go back to stock around here. One could be using the LG PC Suite and the other one, flashing a .kdz file.

Hey Guys, I have the Kyocera Hydro Vibe and I just rooted it today. I tweaked the crap out of it and got a little too power crazy on Root Uninstaller Pro. I wanted to replace the dialer and SMS app and accidentally deleted TelephonyProvider which now took away my service and ability to call and text...... I backed up all the apps i deleted and when I try to install them, it fails. Yes i already changed permissions and all that. I have also tried different TelephonyProvider APK's and .odex's and still nothing......My phone is practically useless right now and i have no idea on what to do. If anyone has the same phone, can you maybe take your TelephonyProvider.apk and TelephonyProvider.odex and upload them or even yet, backup your stock ROM and upload it or can someone help me troublshoot this?

rooted it

it disabled knox and tripped my knox warranty

then i installed kitkat sd fix

now i have undone the sd fix and unrooted my phone

but it didnt ask me to reenable knox

so will i get ota updates now or not
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pibach:
You can check by clicking 'update now'.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pallavgarg10:
It says that the software on your device has been modified by an unauthorised way

Please visit the service centre
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pibach:
That means you can't.

I don't know whether knox bit is checked or some changes in the ROM. To make sure you could try to re-flash full stock ROM. But my bet would be, that you can't OTA with knox tipped.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pallavgarg10:
So can anyone tell me how i can flash an incremental ota update via odin

or can i do so via TWRP

or is my last hope just flashing a full custom rom
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edan1979:
just download the official firmware of your device and flash it with odin... after that if got any OTA update it will run. OTA only run with stock official firmware. no matter if you got knox 0x1 or not.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pallavgarg10:
Just flashed TWRP

I think i'll flash a custom rom instead

BTW is your Selamba rom stable edan????????????
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pibach:
What does OTA require exactly? I am on stock ROM, rooted, skyhigh kernel. No OTA. Is it the kernel preventing OTA?

Instead of using Odin, you can as well use Kies, it does the update automatically.

But OTA is most convenient.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edan1979:
It just a basic rom. 1.0.2 is stable. Or try the new one by THEDEVIOUS1
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mhannigan:
KIES. Don't forget KIES. We all hate it but it works when you want everything back to stock. I don't think the Knox bit alone will prevent you from getting OTA updates.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pallavgarg10:
Apparently it does
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skeeterpro:
It's always been my understanding from previous versions of tabs/Android that once you have installed a custom recovery, OTAs will fail. Download sure but fail to install.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wrongway213:
Kernel will trip Knox, as well as flashing a custom rom or installing a custom recovery (safestrap is ok). A custom kernel or pretty much any customizations will stop ota updates unless you do them via Odin as suggested. If knox doesnt block ota, you can Odin to stock ncg, take ota flash back to NCG kernel to reroot on towelroot and then flash new official ota kernel to keep root while ota updated. Personally I went to ne9 and ran back to ncg.. Won't be flashing anything until android L. NE9 was worthless, just killed root.

Hey first of all, nice tool. It seems to extract and recreate the boot.img file correctly although I haven't actually tested it yet.

However, I am getting some strange behavior with the header editor in Windows 7.

First, when selecting the attached image file to extract, I immediately get the error, "HeaderEditorERROR: File does not exists" in the log. This does not prevent me from extracting the image.

Then when attempting to edit the header info file extracted from this image I either get nothing or an overflow error which causes the application to crash.
