[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wulsic:
[MENTION=6032073]Kieron139[/MENTION] Nice :D now if you have that problem again you know now how to fix it.

Also an tip for if you start flashing custom roms like cyanogenmod, recovery and kernel are builtin one boot.img so if you flash an recovery for stock but you have cyanogenmod then the rom will not boot anymore. (Cyanogenmod and other custom roms have recovery also builtin their rom.)

If your boot.img is corrupted and recovery/rom doesnt boot anymore then I suggest to flash an recovery with odin instead of reflashing the whole stockrom.

Btw I'm still a bit new to this site but how do I "thank" someone for their help?... some sites have a button next to the replies which you can click to say if the reply was helpful, couldn't see anything like that here?

A couple of other quick questions. I'm very happy with my Samsung Galaxy SII but it is frustrating that it no longer receives any software upgrades/improvements. So which custom rom would you recommend? ie is cyanogenmod the best one?... also once a custom rom is installed can the phone still be rooted?

Cheers

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sixshot84:
Hi,

I've searched but can't seem to find anyone with the same issue.

I'm trying to connect my phone to my hifi via Bluetooth. It connects fine but after 3 or 4 minutes the sound cuts out. Both the hifi and the phone still say they are connected and any music app I use says it is playing, it's just there is no sound. I've tried it on 2 roms, Omega 4.1.2 and S5 Sensation 4.4.2 and it's the same. It's not the hifi either as it works fine on my Nook HD+ tablet. I'd just use the nook but it doesn't support aptx.

Any ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] ahmad2121:
Is this even possible? The bluetooth on the acer w/touchscreen seems to connect just fine with the surface pro 3 pen, but then it does absolutely nothing. Doesn't click, doesn't track buttons do nothing.

I had hopes this might be possible, I just hope it isn't proprietary and there would be some sort of stylus for the touchscreen :(

[Moto X Q&A] knitler:
You can flash hundreds of times and not have any issue.
[Moto X Q&A] Travisdroidx2:
No issues, I am a rom tester and have literally flashed this device well over 100 times.
[Moto X Q&A] aviwdoowks:
Starting with 4.4 all moto phones have fstrim. Look it up!
[Moto X Q&A] Travisdroidx2:
That is a app for lag fix. How does that answer the OP's question about flashing too many times?
[Moto X Q&A] aviwdoowks:
Not just an app.

Why does system performance degrade witb use like flashing many ROMs? Memory fragmentation.
[Moto X Q&A] Travisdroidx2:
Reading the thread and reviews it seems the app is pretty old and more focused to the galaxy nexus and some HTC's. The galaxy nexus is a old devise. I also read a lot of current reviews on the app claming the app bricked their devices. I would be cautious of this app after reading v the reviews. I have flashed so many times and still have zero lag. So I am glad I don't really need to consider this app. I am sure on the gnex it worked well when the app was developed. No bad mouthing the original Dev. Just not sure it is still needed for our device.
[Moto X Q&A] aviwdoowks:
As I said fstrim was incorporated in 4.4!
[Moto X Q&A] Travisdroidx2:
Okay, sorry I guess I read your post wrong. Yes, it is now built in. I thought you were trying to reference the app. My misunderstanding.
[Moto X Q&A] kcipopnevets:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] AG0087:
Is anyone having dimming problems with there screen? For instance, when I'm on the browser, and want to swipe the screen upward with my finger the screen dims out right when I slide my finger without even messing with the brightness slider. It happens even on FB. The only way to bring up the brightness back is to turn off screen with the power button and back up or move the slider on drop down.

Anyone having this similar problem? Thanks.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] DesperateScorpion:
I have issues where the screen doesn't adjust based on ambient light.

I am assuming you dont have auto-brightness turned on, do you have the same issue when it is on?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] AG0087:
I haven't tried that. Bit its the screen that dims down by itself when I touch the screen. I did a factory reset when I was NF4 and update to NF9 and the problem is still there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pete4k:
I don't know if this is the same as yours, but few times, when screen is close to it's time out, it dims to tell me so, now if I want to keep screen on I would swipe or touch it, most of the time it will go back to normal, but in very few cases, count down timer will reset, so the screen stays on, but the brightness doesn't come back, screen will stay at low power and I need to double click power button, to turn the screen off and on to get back proper brightness. It's very rare, haven't seen it since my update to NF9 week ago, but I've seen it. No big deal since it's rare and easily fixed with double click. If your problem is not time out related, then I have not seen it. Either way I would speculate it is software related, somehow screen brightness register is improperly or not updated at all. It doesn't bother me at all, but if it was I would probably try factory reset after full backup.

Now this morning when I plug it in, it still won't turn on. Instead, it just sits there and vibrates randomly. If anyone could help me I would really appreciate it.

[Moto 360] Slack3r:
Does anyone know if this is possible, either in Android Wear or on the watch itself? Right now the backlight remains on (but very dim) and drains the battery too much to make it worth using, but I think it would still be visible enough with it off entirely.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Lilwolf2000:
Rom was SuperNexus. I like the rom (maybe draining the battery a bit fast... but at this point.. could be anything).

I'm still on 2.09 hboot. I've been taking this one step at a time. I haven't found any guides to upgrade it to 2.10 yet, but haven't looked.

But todays issue is this. I lost 4g! My wifes phone (stock) has access to 4g so I know it's not the tower and checked it from multiple locations. I also noticed in some cases she can get 3g and I'm showing up with 1x!?!

Anyway, I didn't want to move farther with 2.10 until I figure out if it's the rom or if I need to do a nand restore to get it back.

Any suggestion on what to do next? (update to 2.10? find a 2.09 compatible rom and try that? restore nand then try again?)

btw, I'm on Ting, I don't think that will make a difference. Great service btw, HIGHLY recommend it over Sprint direct! Let me know if you want a referral and we both get $25 bucks off the first month. super cheap prices, pay as you go)....

<EDIT>

Quick addition - I did a restore from twirp of the original and 4g didn't come back :( ... Anyone know what could be wrong? Or what I can do? Thanks!

</EDIT>

<EDIT2>

Anyone even know what to search for? LTE or 4G doesn't work since it's in the phone name.

Thanks

you can use Turbo ui4 with my SuperSlimGapps too.. and Turbo Kernel v3.1 is also included.

I also believe the original turbo kernel works better cuz it has lower System memory and we need more on data partition than on system as all system apps if updated anyways use data partition.

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] 6thsurvivor:
That's strange - twitch works great for me, as you can see below.

And yeah, it's a preview, but nexus guys test it for us with no issues(read the thread) and our GPU is same as all asreno in the world, so it only depends on the right android and kernel version, that's why it was possible to cross-flash drivers from htc to sony on 2012 devices during 4.0 and 4.1, as sony is close to stock.

[Xperia Z1 Compact General] 6thsurvivor:
Mine also fc after 1st reboot, but I wiped dalvik/cache and everything works. Maybe because of wipe - maybe old cache doesn't work with new drivers.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] mosespl:
I will try this
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Rekoil:
Wiping dalvik cache is necessary because the OS optimises applications against the underlying drivers, so when you replace them you also need to re-optimise the applications, otherwise they will be attempting to access the hardware in ways the drivers no longer provide. Another way is to uninstall the affected applications and re-install them, but the easiest and most effective way is simply to just clear dalvik cache and rebuild it.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] mosespl:
I installed this gpu drivers and after that wiped cache and dalvik and still my album got fc i have z3 album video preview doesnt work. Ui fc disappeared. Maybe there is something wrong with my album i wipe app cache but still no luck

[Fire TV Themes and Apps] jessenj:
I was so excited when I learned that the Fire TV would play XBMC (now Kodi) that I bought two units. I followed a forum guide that I lost the link to, but the guide got me to root and mod the units, install the Xposed Framework, Google Framework and Play Store, TowelRoot, SU, etc and his modded XBMC 14.0-alpha2 apk so it was set for launcher intent, and ever since, I've been pretty happily using the boxes to just stream my mkv's from my Windows SMB shares (like the WDTV boxes did that I replaced with the AFTs) but now I can't upgrade my Kodi to the latest release, and I also can no longer run the Amazon App Store from XBMC, which means I can't the Fire TV optimized apps (Facebook, Youtube, etc). Can someone recommend a way out of this mess? I want to save my paths from xbmc, but other than that, I don't have a lot of personalization on either box to care about, so I could just factor reset and start from scratch.

My needs are:

1. Need to be able to run Kodi and update whenever available

2. Need to run the Amazon App Store

3. Need to change the boot to launch into Kodi

What's my best bet? I'm very confused about what the right direction would be.

Thanks,

Jesse
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] DHeffernan:
So what's your question? You said you rooted the device & installed Kodi etc on it.. Not sure why you are asking what direction to go with?

Unless your first paragraph is some sort of typo..

Follow this here if you need to root the device..

Update to latest rootable FW.

http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-setup-a-new-fire-tv-without-blocking-root/

Root

http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-root-the-amazon-fire-tv/

Block updates

http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-block-ota-update-for-amazon-fire-tv-and-keep-root-access/

After that point, you can install the Google play store if you want, sideload Kodi apk onto the device. Use a custom launcher to load right into Kodi and bypass the default Amazon home screen. Once you do install Kodi and a launcher you can always go back to the default Amazon screen but just launching the KFTV launcher within Kodi.. So you never really lose access to it.

All that kind of info can be found here

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Amazon_Fire_TV
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] jessenj:
Sorry if I was unclear. My issue is kinda buried in my first post. When I wrote "modded XBMC 14.0-alpha2 apk so it was set for launcher intent", I"m not using a straight vanilla Kodi release, but a modded apk which appears to the unit as a launcher, and thus replaced the launcher on the unit so that it would boot straight into Kodi. What I need to do is upgrade the version of XBMC/Kodi to the latest. Should I scrub my boxes back to stock and use a different method to launch Kodi without the Amazon launcher? What is the preferred method of running Kodi as a launcher? Is there an alternative launcher replacement that I should be using instead?

Thanks and sorry for the ambiguity.

Jesse
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] DHeffernan:
Just upgrade the current version you got using the below instructions. After that, just do the launcher mod from the wiki page I linked up top. No need to wipe your box, might as well maintain some of your XBMC config/setup.

For the cleanest launcher.. use Xposed and rbox module (Requires root). Which is described in the wiki page I linked.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] sont77:
Hey guy's im haveing trouple finding 14.0 apk and above can you please help...;)
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] jessenj:
So I side-loaded the 14.0a3 and restored KFTV Launcher. After that, I side loaded the FiredLauncher and rbox module and now it boots straight into the updated Kodi release without losing settings so I guess this is as good as its gonna get but I'm a little confused. It looks like the KFTV launcher is still launching first before the FiredLauncher, which means KFTV is still using a ton of memory before Kodi starts. Can I prevent that from happening and boot directly to Fired?

As Galaxy S5 can use the European LTE 800mhz band, could we check the bits from S5 and try to use them in our OPO to enable 800mhz LTE band?
[ONE General] nielsscholte:
So for now you don't know how to unlock some LTE bands for the OPO?
[ONE General] devilsshadow:
The S5 is an Exynos powered device, cant really do much for our Qualcomm based handsets. Besides, as far as I know, no OPO version has the 800MHz band availabe. Check out the band chart below with the available OPO bands:

Not as of right now, no. I'd need confirmation from someone with a chinese OPO in the US to test if flashing the latest CM11 does anything to unlock the additional LTE bands that the Chinese OPO lacks. Otherwise, like I said in the OP, this tutorial is only for unlocking aditional GSM/WCDMA bands.

I'm sure someone smarter than me will find a way to get to the LTE bands as well. Just give it time.

OK thx! I really appreciate your work! Btw the EU GS5 has the Snapdragon 801 ;)

Noob question will i have to do this anytime i flash a new rom or update??
[ONE General] devilsshadow:
Oh yes, my mistake, although, to my knowledge it uses an 805 and not an 801. Feel free to correct me on that!

I'm not 100% sure but I think think so. Flashing a new rom also flashes whatever radios come with the rom so that might overwrite everything. Need someone to test this.

As this is still a work in progress, any further studies into the matter (from different devices owners as well) will only help us further our goal of unlocking full LTE.
[ONE General] skydayzer:
Then i guess this wont affect me since am using Multirom and the custom rom does not flash any radio...

Yeah, that should be ok.
