I belive that I figured out why wifi is not working, none of the files under # Wifi related defines exist in those directories, I think that I fixed it by changing # Wifi in shieldtablet.mk to look like this, but I am not sure as it is still building

Hey guys, we got a google hangouts group going....for NVIDIA Shield Tablet developers!

Please message me at berryman13@gmail.com
[Shield Tablet Android Development] Thejimmynguyen:
Will we be looking forward to a 5.0 ROM in the near future?
[Shield Tablet Android Development] berryman13:
Yes.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] danjull:
Most of us are from different teams in a joint effort to get a stable device tree, so hopefully it'll be a bunch of new lollipop roms.

I think all of us have booting roms, just not very stable. Just a matter of time to iron out the kinks.
[Shield Tablet Android Development] berryman13:
we have a unified hangouts

if you are not already a member of it please PM me your email. :good:

What about the android 5.0?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tt c6:
I am a current Sprint user and I am looking for a Sprint S4 to buy now.

As I understand it, there is NO Google Play Edition version of the S4 available for Sprint.

But, there are TWO different versions of the S4 for Sprint:

The newer SPH-L720

T

, and the older SPH-L720

Which one should I buy & why?

The SPH-L720

T

or SPH-L720 ????

Thank you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] pontif:
Right now I'd say L720 only because there is more support and an actual forum for customized features. Is spark available in your area? Read up on the specs. Still always your choice.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tt c6:
Yes. Spark network has been rolled out in Philadelphia according to Sprint.

Is the use of the Spark network worth the limited aftermarket support or the L720T ????

Thank you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] pontif:
That would all be up.to you and what you get out of the research of spark network and if it's usability is of use to you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tt c6:
Thanks for your response.

I'm not lazy. :) I did the research.

But, there are people here that are much more educated and experienced regarding this subject, and I was hoping to get an expert's opinion in this thread. :)

Thanks again in advance.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cooljb:
I've had both, and from a usability standpoint, I prefer the 720T. Main reason being the 800 Mhz coverage. With the original 720 I got no service at all inside my building at work (and poor service in a lot of places indoors) even though there is a sprint tower directly across the street. Once I got the 720T, I was immediately able to get decent voice and LTE on the 800 Mhz band (Band 26) at work. I also get generally better coverage/service all over on 800 Mhz wherever I am in my city. Of course that's dependent on the network having the 800 Mhz coverage deployed, and my city supposedly has 100% "Network Vision" and LTE completed. And I guess too, I am looking forward to getting data on 2.5 Ghz eventually, which you can't get on the original 720.

Now as others have mentioned, if you're into rooting and flashing different ROMs, you're going to have more support with the original. But I care more about coverage and usability and that's why I prefer the tri-band version. Oh and Wi-Fi calling (never actually used it, but it's nice to know it's there). So far that hasn't been rolled out for the original 720 yet.

One con for the tri-band is you can't talk and surf(do data) at the same time, which you can on the original 720. This is not a deal breaker for me, but it is something else to consider.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tt c6:
This is a potential deal breaker for me.

Is there any word on whether simultaneous calls and data will be made possible with a future software update or is this a permanent hardware limitation?

If it's software, when will it be officially released???

Thank you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Cooljb:
Not sure if it will ever be possible to talk and do data on the tri-band or not. There is some speculation that if/when Sprint rolls out VOLTE, that it would theoretically be possible. But currently sprint doesn't have any "official" plans/timeline for deploying VOLTE. And even if they did, I don't know if the 720T would support VOLTE or not. It could possibly be just a software update for it to support VOLTE, but there could be a hardware limitation - I haven't been able to find any definitive info on any of this. So it's probably best to assume that at least for the near term, you would not be able to use data and talk at the same time on the tri-band 720. Again, this was not a deal breaker for me, but I know if is for some. It's the same situation with the Sprint S5 (and all spark phones) - if you look at the sprint forums people are irate that they can't talk and surf at the same time on their brand new state of the art Samsung Galaxy S5. I believe for now all of the Spark phones have this limitation.

I would think Sprint will have to address this eventually because a lot of people are complaining about it. So who knows, maybe they will address it sooner rather than later.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tt c6:
Soooo........

It is a cell tower hardware limitation, that should be eventually resolved.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] tt c6:
Tony-

Thanks for posting.

So, will Sprint ever get simultaneous LTE and Voice to work?

When do you guess they will?

Will my SPH-L720T be able to do simultaneous voice and data when Sprint rolls it out to their network?

Thanks.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mslovecc:
After I had my Z1 compact(Japanese Version) two weeks, I started having this vibration issue. When I type very fast the vibration feedback disappear, vibration even failed in vibration test. When I shake the phone the vibration comes back, but when I type fast again vibration disappear again. Some ppl on sony forum said it's normal, one of them made the vibration of Z1 compact disappeared on many new phones in an O2 shop. I don't think this is true, it must be a hardware issue. I opened the back cover of Z1 compact and replace a vibration motor, then this issue never happen again.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ponchofiesta:
I do have this problem too.

You replaced the vibration motor with an original one from Sony?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazyscow:
I have the same issue too, but i think its software releated. Im already on my 3rd z1c and i had this issue on all of them, on the first one i had i had them replace the vibration motor and that didnt help.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mslovecc:
I don't think Sony produce vibration motors. I just bought one from Taobao.com that fits for Z1 compact and replaced it. It works fine now. It's a very small piece, I think Z series mobile used the same vibration motor.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mslovecc:
I'm sure it's a hardware issue. I tested it. when the vibration motor stopped vibrating, I touched the vibration motor, the vibration motor heated up very hot. but after i replace the vibration motor, i don't have the vibration issue anymore, even the newly replaced vibration motor vibrated for a long time about one minute, the vibration motor is not over heat.

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] facemymusic:
Where did you buy the motor from? I'd like to replace mine, but because I'm having an issue with the vibration being WAY too intense on my z1c.

It's obnoxiously loud, and more disruptive than my phone volume being on. I've had to turn off all haptic feedback because anyone within 10 feet of me can hear the feedback. If I get an incoming message or notification while I'm on a call, the person on the other line can hear it very loudly too. I've tried to go through the settings to see if there is a way to turn down the haptic feedback, but I only found one under the stock keyboard settings and it didn't seem to make a difference.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Android_Monsters:
Have you tried re-flashing a custom recovery like clockwork and then attempt to get into recovery?

---------- Post added at 05:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:14 AM ----------

Then flash a custom rom.

---------- Post added at 05:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:15 AM ----------

Then go from there. At that point you should be able to Odin to stock. Root. And erase less system files.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Well you were on 4.4.2 and tried to flash 4.2.2 firmware. It will fail everytime.. Flash NB4 firmware instead
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shingo_okala:
i managed to go into recovery mode. i read somewhere in the forum that i need to unlock bootloader 1st than i can install custom roms?

i'm on 4.4.2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
Like mentioned above. Put phone into Odin mode, use Odin to flash nb4 firmware. That will take you to stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shingo_okala:
can't find custom recovery tar file (odin)

i did that i got back it to boot up is not working well. auto **** down + no wifi + lag

i need to flash a brand new firmware.

now installing custom recovery via odin as mentioned S4 has no acess to wifi

UPDATE :

i'm now on Cyangenmod 11 SGH-M191.

let me try out this custom rom 1st.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shingo_okala:
hi guys i'm cyangenmod 11 howeven when i want to flash back to M919UVUAMDL it goes back to square 1.

how to get back stock rom?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
Once you have put a 4.3 or 4.4 Stock ROM on (for example NB4), it is IMPOSSIBLE to put stock 4.2.2 (MDL) back on. You can only put on NB4 since you have been there already.

The introduction of the Knox stuff makes going backward not work. Just be glad the T-Mobile phones don't lock the boot loader like ATT variants of the S4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
We already said to flash NB4, you cannot downgrade firmware.. Once you flash it, or before you flash it, boot straight to recovery and perform a factory reset
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
YOU CAN ONLY FLASH NB4 FIRMWARE. NOT MDL OR MK2. YOU CAN NOT DOWNGRADE LIKE YOU ARE TRYING TO AS STATED. FLASH NB4 FIRMWARE.

20 bucks he completely doesnt read again.

no, no, no, i did read it this time, this font is just right for me sorry i have myopia.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shingo_okala:
hey guys is me again i want to ask a noob question.

Can i flash an intentional firmware in to a t-mobile phone??

since the firmware and the phone is for GSM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
Below is a good way to know the possible worst-case scenario (whether you get a useless paperweight or a simple soft-brick).

Odin = flash things ONLY for M919 variant.

TWRP/Philz/CWM = All S4 variants EXCEPT i9500.

Basically what I'm saying; if you're talking about the Odin-flashable firmware don't do it. If you're talking about an intl i9505 ROM meant to be flashed via recovery, yes you can as long as it isn't for the i9500 intl variant... that would be a brick.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] shingo_okala:
okie thanks . now on NB4 hahaha

s memo apk

hi guys i'm trying to install s-memo in my samsung s4 rooted. i couldn't get it from the play store as it says

" your device is not compatiable with this version" thus i download the apk manually but when i tried to install the apk.

it won't let me install "not installed" .

i'm trying to flash in recovery... x my fingers
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muz4:
He tried to flash cyanogenmod 10.1.3 on his i9100g and now it has problems

1) when pressed power button, it will go to twrp

2) when pressed the recovery comb, it won't boot

3) when pressed the download comb, it won't boot

4) when charging or plugged to a computer, it will boot to twrp automatically

5) when in twrp, touch doesn't work. the screen won't detect touches

Now I have his phone with me. I'm using mac and I have heimdall, recovery-clockwork, cm-10.1.3 and gapps downloaded.

Anyone with advice / guides to help me fix his phone?

If you need additional information, I will try to provide it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I98:
Hello

I think that it's an easy fix.First, download another rom and make sure that it's for the i9100g not the i9100, why don't you download stock rom i9100g and then use a usb cable to copy it to the s2 i9100g, but in order for it to appear on open mounts and storage (i'm not sure if it is the same in twrp),so copy the rom which is FOR the i9100g and then flash it.Everything should be ok :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muz4:
The problem is that it won't go pass twrp. It couldnt even go to download mode. AFAIK there isnt any way to copy the files to the phone via USB cable without the phone booted or in download mode. But if what I said is wrong, please do enlighten me.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I98:
There should be a mounts and storage option in twrp, click mount sd, connect usb and then copy the file needed for flashing.

or you could try to flash a rom via odin, download samsung stock 4.1.2 and put your phone into download mode (press power button+home+volume down) and then connect a usb to flash the rom.If you have any questions related to this please ask.If the rom is installed successfully but you get a bootloop boot into stock recovery and wipe cache partion and do a factory data reset.

but I take no responsibility if your phone gets bricked or damaged

Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarkAndroid.UK:
It sounds like it could be soft bricked - might happen if the wrong phone model software has been flashed. The only way around this I know of is to get hold of a USB Jig. Its worth a try before the repair shop!
[AT&T LG G3] cuongfucius:
Hey sorry just got the AT&T model a few hours ago, tried searching for an answer but couldn't find anything specific besides someone bricking.

Are we able to flash other carriers' ROMs e.g. T-Mobile roms. I know our bootloader is still locked but I would think that applies to aosp roms more.

Sorry for the ignorance guys. My first lg phone and coming from the m8 where we can flash whatever we want without any problems lol.
[AT&T LG G3] esoteric1311:
No
[AT&T LG G3] cuongfucius:
Reason? Is it because our model is slightly different?
[AT&T LG G3] esoteric1311:
Locked bootloader
[AT&T LG G3] cuongfucius:
So I was asking, once our bootloader is unlocked. It might be possible?
[AT&T LG G3] GroovyGeek:
Still no. Other GSM carriers are possible but with adjustments. Straight carrier interoperability is just not gonna happen.
[AT&T LG G3] neo4uo:
You know I came from Galaxy S4 and basically I was with ATT and we could flash almost all other carriers with a little bit of tweaking. You most likely had to flash a kernel with your carrier and you surely wanted to make sure the Rom didn't have a radio or that could mess you up and a lot of Times you had to enter in APN info and what not. All of this is dependent on our boot loader being unlocked or some kind of recovery like safestrap being developed. If either of those happens I am sure someone with try and/or write up a guide on how to!

Anyways to the OP, I like how you are thinking though. ;)
[AT&T LG G3] daraj:
Even if our bootloader is unlocked, which it is locked btw, we still cant install stock official ROM images from different carriers simply because official stock ROMS can only be installed on devices they are created for.

Now If you are taking about Custom ROMS, then yes you can interchange between devices, in most cases, with some tweaking like you said(kernel, WiFi, Bluetooth fix....) But still our G3 is locked like a FORT and you cant do either atm.
[AT&T LG G3] cuongfucius:
Yeah I've been using devices since the Mytouch4g, s2, etc. HTC and Samsung devices are known to flash between other carrier's CUSTOM roms with proper kernels and such. I was just curious because I heard the at&t model is slightly different, but I wasn't sure what hardware wise. But from the sounds of it, it is highly possible once bootloader is unlocked.

Yeah sorry I meant custom ROMs of course. I'm with T-mobile Carrier. I'll probably try to find someone with a T-mobile model to trade eventually.
[AT&T LG G3] daraj:
Yep that would be the way to go. It seems like it works beautifully on at&t network.
[AT&T LG G3] cuongfucius:
yeah I get LTE and everything with the at&t model on t-mobile. Just need a T-mobile custom rom to get wifi calling for my work place.
[AT&T LG G3] anl2304:
Now that we have root and bump (and a modified stock kernel) I wonder if we can flash a t-mobile rom to AT&T's LG G3. (I.e., flash the tmobile rom, flash the at&t kernel, reboot, reset apn settings.)

It may not be as easy as that, though. Bump seems to be a bit different from other exploits.

[AT&T LG G3] 4ndroid99:
I was able to successfully boot a Tmo rom on our D850 (Dirty Unicorns) with a kernel from CM for D850. The wifi and a few other things didn't work.

However, I was able to boot D855 and VS985 roms by replacing the kernel and a couple of other system files (same method Canadian users have been using). As of right now I'm running AOSPA from the verizon forums without any issues.
[AT&T LG G3] SmokeyTech1:
If you could tell me what exactly all you do that would be awesome, the D850 section is slim,
[AT&T LG G3] jrdndglsbrwn:
Yes please share this method
[AT&T LG G3] potatomanwrl:
I would like to know how to do this as well.

What files did you remove?
[AT&T LG G3] BB6H22LUDE:
+1

Sent from my LG-D850
[AT&T LG G3] 4ndroid99:
For those that care, here's what I basically did to boot roms from other variants.

What I basically did is I took the zip from this post and replaced the files within it with ones from a D850 rom (such as CM11), including the build.prop and boot.img (kernel). Afterwards, you need to download a D855 or VS985 rom and edit the first few lines of the updater-script from D855 or VS985 to D850.

This is all done on Win7 with winrar. I tried it on mac with a zip editor and the file got messed up and wouldn't flash.

This is basically the same method Canadian users were using, it works the same way for D850 nevertheless.

There's no guarantee that this will work for every rom. I tried a lot of kk roms (Carbon, AOSPA, Nameless, PAC, Bliss Stalk, etc) and they booted and works nicely for the most part. I have not tried this with lollipop yet so idk about that.

But now that devs started bumping roms for D850, there's prolly no need for this method anymore.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] MacTheRipperr:
Hello everYone! I'm a bit late to the party and have the latest update. I know towel root no longer works. But in was wondering if someone could point me in the direction of how to root the newest update. Thanks ahead of time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
Use CF auto root. The same way it was done before towel root will still work, but it'll trip knox. Not that tmobile cares.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] erraggy:
Wouldn't t-mobile care if I attempt to turn in my knox-tripped phone for a JUMP upgrade? Seriously this is what has kept me with an unmodified ROM that I have only rooted via towelroot. If you know this is not an issue with t-mobile's policies, I'd love to know more.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
I've done it before (twice) and they didn't care at two different stores. Now, I'm not saying that they won't check for you 100%, but other members and I have had the same experience with tmobile....they really don't care.
