Hi can i go to Philz recovery or other non-stock recovery with Reactivation Lock enabled ? I'm currely on Philz but i can change if other work.. And i have a Custom rom ( Xtrestoite 1.3.2 )

I heard that it will turn to a soft brick .. is that right ?

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
No. As a search of existing threads would confirm, you need to disable re-activation lock first or you'll just end up with a failed write /corrupt partition.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hubdat:
This another battery post... I'm seriously starting to think that there is something wrong with my battery. Yesterday I got a day's use only with three hours sot. I didn't even use it heavily just browsing with chrome. Right now I'm getting 9 hours and down to 65 percent. 1 hour 50 mins of just browsing with chrome. Havent used any other apps either. I'm running mahdi ROM and before I had some battery problems with cm11s battery. I don't have anything waking up my phone so no wakelocks and I haven't been playing music either.

I don't have a lot of apps open and I do use greenify. Screen brightness is below 50% for 95% of my usage time. Reception is soso as I am on At&t and for some reason I can't get good signal on 4g so I go on 3g which is better. I also use wifi quite alot.

I have been told that my Android System usage is very high and I don't know why it is doing that. I got better battery life on cm11s but it is still low in comparison to others. Other people have not even modded their system in anyway and they are getting better SOT and total battery hours.

Pictures: imgur(.)com/a/6MUy2 (Mahdi Rom) Note: I didn't want it to drain overnight because then it would have be skewed results as I would be sleeping and not using it. Hence the screenshots at 35%

Hey guys, I got a Galaxy Ace from my friend (he got a new phone and this one wasn't working, so he gave it to me), and now I'm trying to fix it. But seems like this little guy will be hard to fix.

You turn it up, the logo screen show up and the boot animation starts. Shortly after, the animation will hang and will start over. I've tried booting it in recovery mode and wiping data/cache, but I get two messages when I reboot:

E:failed to mount /data (Invalid argument)

E:copy_log_files_to_data :: can't mount /dataRebooting

Any idea about how should I try fixing it?

[Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1rdc:
My sister's phone had the same problem. I had used Odin successfully for my phone before, using this guide. But the same did not work for my sister's phone.

She had never rooted her phone or tweaked it in any way but suddenly one day it started bootlooping. I tried MANY guides, wiped everything, and tried a custom ROM but /data wouldn't mount. Even Odin aborted installation. I left it as a lost cause for 2 months.

Today I completely uninstalled and reinstalled Kies, installed the USB drivers and tried this guide, and used "Open Austrailia". I used Odin with pit. Somehow it worked!

Re-partition was ticked and I used the bootloader as well. Just follow the video, even if it's not your country's firmware.

Boot loop

My GT-S5830i is stuck in the boot loop.

When booted into Android system recovery, it fails to wipe data/factory reset with

E:format_volume:rfs format failed on /dev/stI11

Can it be fixed with an update via sdcard ?

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biso007:
Hi everyone ...

[Updated in post #3]

I faced a terrible lag with my SM-900 after 4.4.2 update and I read a lot about this bad combination (S View + Lock with PIN) but I was forced to use the lock screen bcz of the company email server.

So, I decided to go into some experiments:

- Wiped cache partition: didn't solve

- Flashed stock Rom: didn't solve

- Used stock cover: didn't solve

- Removed the exchange account and lock screen: didn't solve

So, I decide to start from scratch. I flashed the stock rom with Odin then a factory reset without the S View cover. I didn't install except very few apps (FB, Whatsapp and viber). The lag disappeared and the system was snappy and very smooth. After couple of days I put the S View cover and the system kept running smooth as is. After another couple of days I enabled the lock screen with PIN and the system is still in a very good shape and the clock of the lock screen always shows the right time and the home button response to wake up is perfect.

That eliminates the theory of SV+LS cause of lag. However, I 'll wait for few days then I will configure the company exchange account and update this post again.

Hope this is useful for some people who's facing this annoying problem.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Artelion:
Hi,

Please keep updating about this LAG issue. I have the same problems and have the same configuration of corporate exchange email and PIN lock.

Did not find a solution for the lag yet.

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Biso007:
Update:

I configured the Exchange account for 5 days now. The device is still working very fine with no "noticeable" lag. However, I have noticed the following:

- for only once the screen didn't come on with an incoming phone call.

- Now the clock on the lock screen always doesn't match the system clock when you flip the S View cover.

Conclusion: I tend to believe that 4.4.2 for Note 3 has a bug somewhere in the lock screen process, and this bug is building the lag issue with time. Also, I believe as well that the OTA process for 4.4.2 on top of existing data brings this issue very fast. I think the best way is to do a factory reset then update/flash the device with the stock 4.4.2 (through Odin) then to start by enabling the lock screen with PIN before configuring the Exchange account.

I don't have a scientific explanation to prove this will work for everyone, but that what worked for me :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supreethms:
Hi. I have a very strange issue on my device.

Whenever i plug in an earphone/Headphone, i can listen to the sounds ONLY from the left earpiece.

I cross checked the earphone with my desktop, laptop and others' phones. It is working perfectly.

I just need to know if this is a software related issue or a hardware issue.

I tried changing my ROM in case the current ROM had problems. Even after changing to a different ROM, the problem persisted.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Behemoth1702:
Sounds like a hardware error to me if you are having the issues with different ROMs. Try different headphones. If they don't work it MAY be the jack. But nothing is for sure here. :-/
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supreethms:
I tried with different headphones too. Problem remains. The jack?

If you have the knowledge, could you share with me what MIGHT have happened? A GUESS?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Behemoth1702:
Sorry,

the jack for me (I'm German) is the hole you stick your headphones into.

Unfortunately after some time and maybe some rough treatment the jack gets damaged. Google "repair headphone jack" and you will find many people with that problem.

If you can not fix the issue by any software and the headphones themselves are working it is most probably a hardware failure on the phone, jack is dislocated/broken a bit.

Google and maybe even repair service is your friend now from what I can tell. :-/
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxppxd:
First try to clean the phones jack. Sometimes, garbage gets inside preventing good contact between the earpiece and the phone's jack. Use a toothpick or something (preferably not something metallic) to scrub it and see if it works.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] supreethms:
Thank you. I will try that.

If this doesn't work, can it be solved without getting it to a service center?

Because i have lost my warranty due to physical damage almost 8 months back.

It worked fine till last week, but somehow this started. :(
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dxppxd:
If its not garbage, its hardware damage. You'll need to get it replaced. Luckily, replacing the jack is usually very cheap.

has anyone else experienced this or have any suggestions?

gonna try and run the battery down and then attach it to the charger, but afraid that it will no longer turn back on if I do that

its been about a months since I bought it so I won't be able to return it unless I buy a new one and do a dishonest switcharoo

Everything about the watch appears to be working properly except for the fact that the power sleep

no damage or anything

any suggestions?

and then I found this thread
[Samsung Gear Fit] ovidiugr:

Would you be able to remember how much it cost to send in and what that was dependent on. The button on mine seems to be permanently pressed in and I'm trying to figure out what to do next. Please and thank you.
[Samsung Gear Fit] Fatlake:
If your button seems to be permanently pressed holding it down for 20 25 seconds should help it recover. It also resets your phone.
[Samsung Gear Fit] vipthomps:
Reviving an old thread but my button stopped working after a few days in Disney with the family. It had started randomly rebooting while there and then on the last day.. couldn't even hit the power button on the flight home (was fully recessed in) It was 1 day..no joke..1 day after the 1 year warranty expired.

I tried heating it in a hot pack and that would pop the button out but only for a single press then it stuck in. iFixit showed a hole in step 4 (you'll have to google for the article since there is no linking allowed) well.. given the warranty was up and its pretty useless without a power button... i poked the hole with a pin and while i'm sure I broke the vacuum seal and waterproof-ness at least it working. Since its a tiny tiny hole and with that plastic cover back on it i'm betting it'll last at least a while longer.. i'll just be a bit more careful about water exposure.

Good luck to anyone else with this problem

Hello[emoji4] If you have an LG G2, I personally don't see a need to buy a new device, the LG G3 features little upgrades from the G2, They both have the same Camera Sensors(except the G3 records 4k for 5 minutes and it has OIS Plus, and 120 fps recording, you'll lose the 60 fps option on the G3, both have the same battery capacity (3000 mAh battery), but due to the fact that the G3 has to push more pixels with the help of the Qualcomm Quadcore Snapdragon 801 process being used(because of the QHD Display) the battery will drain quicker than the G2's battery and the G3 Will get hot(depending on your usage) due to what I mentioned early, the G2 however has a 1080p Display, the battery on the G2 can handle the 1080p Display but not the QHD Display on the G3(you can replace the battery on the G3) what device do you have right now before I go any further?

Read the G3 development forum for rom and kernel info. The G3 is rootable so you can use trickstermod etc to tweak the stock kernel to save battery.

So I had thought that the easiest way is change field SDK_VERSION. But then I saw it is constant - https://github.com/android/platform...va/android/content/pm/PackageParser.java#L150

Not AFAIK.

You could recreate the last part of that method if the minVers check is true (after recreating that check, too), I suppose.
