Downgrade by custom ROM is possible >> ????? like in i9200 ?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Devo7v:
It depends on what phone you have. If you have the i9295, then you can downgrade. If you have the i537, then you cannot downgrade.

[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
Just out of curiosity (don't really know if I can help) did you try going step by step (sequentially by each build) or did you try going straight to the newest one?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fuel426:
Here ya go, went with the NE3 firmware instead of the NH3, i'll slim it down as close as possible to a AOSP ROM.

Hello everyone. I am running 4.4.4 on my Galaxy S4 and recently I've run into a camera issue. Every time I enter my camera it just says "Updating Camera firmware. Please wait..." then it just stays like and the camera won't come up. I haven't flashed any Roms or modified the phone in any way. I even factory reset the phone and it won't work. What can I do about this?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
I think when you factory reset it wipes caches on your phone, but you could try long pressing on your camera app, go to app info and try clearing caches and data if you don't mind reconfiguring settings for your camera.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikefly32:
How do I reconfigure camera settings?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Well I meant like just the settings in the camera app e.g. the resolution, where you want the photos to be saved etc
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikefly32:
Sorry but this did not work. Same issue.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] themadba:
Try downloading a camera app off the play store and see if it works.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] toughman:
I just purchased my MDA phone from T-mobile in US. I want to have my phone read and type Chinese. Can anyone please tell me which ROM I should use to flash my phone? Any instruction will be great!

Thanks!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] deathMiata:
I have seen some Dopod ROM's on the Wizard FTP server, but that would override your settings for SMS and MMS. I don't think that many of them are really worth the time to flash to the phone as many of them are using very old ROM images like 1.03 - 2.23. In addition to that, there are no indicators whether they are for G3 or G4 devices.

If you plan to flash your device with these ROMs, be careful and find out which one is right for your phone. If you flash the wrong ROM to the wrong device, YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE AND TURN IT INTO AN EXPENSIVE PAPERWEIGHT! Weigh the need for Chinese on your phone to the possible risk you will make by flashing a ROM to your phone.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] casualsurfer:
just get monster chinese installed. i paid for mine, but i think you can download it and get a crack for it.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knightowl439:
This might be a stupid question, but not sure how I updated TWO Google News and Weather.

How do I remove one of them? It's a system app, so when you uninstall it doesn't give you the X to remove it from your history.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ph37rd:
Did you download a copy and manually install it? If so, that goes to the user side of the house, the one installed in system is still there. You'd have to manually remove the one in system if you want it completely gone.

Hi men you remember me when i start!

First I used FlashTools, to flash .96 Firmware. I felt really well

After that i try with Leopardx 4.9 ROM. I use it 2 or 3 months because i dont like it, had too much bugs in WALKMAN. (but was fast)

Now i wanna use Carbon ROM or NatureExperia Advance.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] boddah92:
Hi,

few days ago I noticed a exclamation mark in a triangle (warning) in notification bar. It says "Security information - The device has detected an application attempting to perform actions that are not permitted ", when I click on it i have to options. Restart now and Restart later.

I googled and noticed few others have same problem. I tried holding notification, and delete cache and force stop KNOX notification manager, because it helped others. After 4-5 minutes however, notification was back. I even tried factory reset. Didn't help...

Next solution was to delete KNOX completly and when I tried to do it... KNOX wasn't even installed.

I find 3rd solution and in settings under security I unchecked Auto update security, because it helped a few Note 3 owners. Still nothing. After few minutes another notification.

At that point I ran out of options so if anyone got a solution I would really appriciate it.

There were a few solution, but all required rooted phone, and my S3 isn't rooted and never was.

cheers!

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drerling:
Hi. I'm pretty new to "posting an android issue on a forum". I have tried finding out how to do it properly, but not sure if i succeeded in doing just that...

Anyway, here is my go at it:

Phone: Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9505

OS: Cyanogenmod 11.0 (XNPQ32P)

Baseband version I9505XXUFNB9

Kernel: 3.4.0-cyanogenmod-g433243c build04@cyanogenmod #1

Tue Aug 5 22:51 PDT 2014

Issue:

I have a "local" app called "TV Overalt" (in english that would be "TV everywhere") that is dependent on my STB-subscription. It lets one view TV streamed on the phone while on the same network as the TV STB. When trying to open a TV channel stream on the galaxy s4 I get an error message that sound like "com.latens.drmManager.api.exceptions.TiDrmClientInitFailureException: Failed to initialize DRM Client". I guess this is due to the fact that the phone is rooted, but is there any way of having this work (with a custom ROM)? Netflix and other DRM related apps do work.

Is there any way to extract a .log file for this error without using a command window on the pc?

Issue#2:

Mostly all of my apps do work, with the exception of the Facebook app (stops on "setting up Facebook..."), Spotify (stops on logging in)

How (and maybe where) do I go about to make a proper error report...

Thanks,

DrE
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mazbot:
You should look for the specific thread for your ROM and device. Its probably under the 9505 Development or 9505 original development section. Check the first post on the thread if there is any recommendation for what is necessary to report a bug. Also check if there is more than one thread, one only for discussion and other only for bug report. Since you don't have any log from the error, I recommend you to post over the discussion thread. Finally, it could be apps fault. And not caused by the ROM.

Thought I would share my experience with this PITA tablet.

Just spent a few days scratching my head trying to factory reset a Lexibook Barbie MFC190BBEN model Android tablet.

It belongs to a 7 year old girl who put a password lock on it for some reason then forgot her password (much to her Mum's annoyance).

The Lexibook support site suggests going into settings and selecting factory reset.

Obviously this cannot be done as the tablet is locked so their next suggestion is to send it back for 'out of warranty' repair!

Some serious googling got me as far as recovery mode (sort of) which involves the reset button being pressed with a paperclip whilst pressing the power button and volume up at the same time whilst connected to a pc via usb.

This gets you a blank tablet screen, adb access but no fastboot and the adb is very limited and stops responding to simple commands.

It uses a Rockchip processor but most of the drivers do not give a stable connection.

After lots of trying to get stable connections so I can push a custom recovery (or get anything at all to talk to the damn tablet) I found that if you disonnect the usb cable and reset the tablet with the reset button you need to hold BOTH volume buttons then press the power button for a couple of seconds..keep holding the volume buttons and you should get the Android robot with a red exclamation mark.

From here I reconnected to the pc and adb could now see a device in recovery mode but with a serial of 0123456789ABCDEF

Still no joy with any adb commands....

Just a few reboots to blank screen again with no adb.

So I reset again and held the two volume buttons to get back to the Android with red exclamation mark again.

Some more googling found a different type of Rockchip based tablet that suggested NOW pressing the power button and volume up quickly..........

Well it turns out this tablet DOES have its own recovery!!!

No amount of googling told me this!!

So after days of messing about with drivers and button presses it turns out it is a simple task to reset from recovery.

You use the volume keys to choose from the minimal options in the recovery menu and use power to select.

Due to the amount of googling I did with no answers that worked (or even came close to an answer) I thought I would share this in the hope it would save someone else from pulling their hair out and keep their child happy!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] n8dagr8:
Sorry if this is a simple question but I'm very new to Samsung (bought this phone last weekend - life long HTC user)...

do I need a custom recovery to flash this or can I use mobile odin pro? If custom recovery is needed, can a custom recovery be installed without tripping knox? I have SuperSU installed and knox disabled (still reading a lot to fully understand the implications of knox 0x1 on software, i.e. corporate email, etc....don't really care about warranty.)

I have root (via towelroot) and NG3 baseband.

Thanks in advance!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] mike28:
As soon as recovery is installed knox tripps as far as I know, knox it's not really an issue unless you need to send the phone back to Samsung, many have Tripp knox and send it back as far as I know no issues, you will need a recovery to install the rom I personally use twrp others prefer philz, welcome good choice on the s5 is a great phone.

Edit regarding mobile Odin I have not used it but most devs prefer using it via pc to avoid any issues

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gavilan2010:
I think wanam xposed can do that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] KingVeto:
Xposed modules like APM or Wanam both will give you the advanced power menu. If you don't want to use Xposed then you can simply search for "power menu" or "reboot menu" in the playstore. There are a few apps there that do it, too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] nillyboble:
Yes, it's wanam under system very first option. You can enable screenshot and video record in that menu also.

I normally rename or delete /system/priv-app/SPDClient.apk to prevent security updates but I cannot find it in this ROM. Is it pre-removed or has Samsung changed the name of this apk to something else?

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] southsidexz:
If in case someone asks (Xposed + S Health)

Thought I would throw this out, in case someone asks.

Here are the instructions to get S Health to work with Xposed. (Might want to perform a backup of SHealth if you want the information to be kept)

1. Have a file editor (Root Explorer) or terminal (editor) and of course root

2. Edit the "build.prop" file located in the "system" partition

3. Find the line inside build.prop that states "ro.securestorage.support=true"

4. Change the "true" to "false", the line will end up looking like: ro.securestorage.support=false

5. Save the modified build.prop

6. Install Xposed Framework & Reboot

7. Final step, clear data on "Health Service" by going to your applications under "All". Reboot afterwards

It should work now
