Just odin the full nk2 firmware and then use the root/with custom recovery that is listed in the s5 original development link>>> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51421053&postcount=1&nocache=1&z=2673984244465828 . Using odin to flash the nk2 will allow you to retain your settings as this is just like taking the over the air update. You will just lose root and custom recovery. You can follow my method to attain root and then you will just have to add your custom recovery.

The other way would to just flash one of the nk2 rooted rom from the devolpment section, doing it this way you will lose all you settings as you have to wipe before you flash the nk2 rom.

as far as your pictures it shows that you are still on nh5 firmware.

Check out this listing! This guy claims to reset knox back to 0x0 with a custom rom.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gspears:
I'd have to see it to believe it. I can't even get the link to come up.

Update: I got the link to come up and he says it's shows the Knox counter is 0x0. The most likely scenario is that it was never tripped. Or he doesn't know how to check it. Or they rooted the phone but never installed a custom rom on it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] YoshiNurijumi:
Thank you for this. Worked like a charm and all I found was how to do this with the EURO stuff. Much appreciate!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fozzy501:
Sorry to bother, again.

there is too much information on how to do this root. I am currently on the new(last update) they released.

I wanted to root my phone.

So, just download Odin, and the nk2 file?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] galaxyuser88:
The info on how to root is easy to follow. I just kept NH5 files in there because some people did not want to take the nk2 update. Also it is the complete instructions to make it easy for everyone to follow and answers alot of questions as to possible issues that some might run into with rooting .

1. odin nk2 firmware

2. download ne6 boot.tar

3. download superuser

4. download tp.apk (rooting file)

5 odin ne6 boot.tar

6. run tp.apk this will root your phone

7 after your phone is rooted run superuser You might have to reboot your phone for superuser to stick

8 after superuser installs download nk2 boot.tar

9 odin nk2 boot.tar

10 you should now be on the complete nk2 firmware with root

11 verify root

12 enjoy

Odin = computer version of odin and not mobile odin
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fozzy501:
Thanks a lot. What the Difference with nh5 and nk2. Why do people want the ot file?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] galaxyuser88:
if you look at the development section you will see more custom rom on NH5 then NK2, so people want to keep NH5 and not update.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fozzy501:
So of if i wanted the nh5, just do the steps you provided me? Right
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] galaxyuser88:
yes. instead of odin of NK2 -- odin NH5 and then follow the steps below.

But remember NK2 is the latest firmware and it has many updates and fixes that nh5 does not. Like improvements to wifi calling and volte.

1. odin nh5 firmware

2. download ne6 boot.tar

3. download superuser

4. download tp.apk (rooting file)

5. odin ne6 boot.tar

6. run tp.apk this will root your phone

7. after your phone is rooted run superuser You might have to reboot your phone for superuser to stick

8. after superuser installs download nh5 boot.tar

9. odin nh5 boot.tar

10. you should now be on the complete nh5 firmware with root

11. verify root

12. enjoy

Will there be an Android L ROM for the DX? In theory it would be lighter on the CPU, since it uses ART by default. Hopefully the RAM usage is just as light.

We're already discussing it in the KK thread. Plus m.ksy did mention something about new life for the DX soon. Admins close thread, OP refer to KK thread in development section

Just because something is default, doesn't mean it works better.

There really is no point asking about L unless you are looking for specific help building.

Who come up with this QA Bot post ?

it's useless Clutter to the Q&A Section ... The Developers almost never come here so why the QA bot post ?

This area is managed by fellow users and a few friendly developers, ;) you know who you are :D.

So who come up with the QA Bot idea ? Developers or the Moderators ? Just curious :confused: :confused:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
What I don't understand is why Q&A are still allowed in the main discussion section of DevDB threads even if a Q&A "bot" thread exist. Look at ARHD DevDB main discussion for example, there are still tons of questions asked and answered there every day even if there is a Q&A bot thread here in the "One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting" section... I can't disagree when you're saying its's useless clutter.

I understand that the purpose of this change is to make the questions more visible so pple can answer them even if they are not following a DevDB project. This is also to help devs keeping their thread clean by moving the "q&a" part from the main discussion to another location, but this is not working...

So my question is: Are Q&A still allowed in DevDB discussion? If yes why? If no, why members are not redirected to these new Q&A threads?

Thanks for any answer (moderators) :good:

Edit: Interesting thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2474979
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Well having read that thread I see and understand what there hoping to achieve. And for newer development threads I can see the benefits.

But It does seem a bit messy at the moment for threads that have already been running for some time. Taking ARHD again as an example. The main Rom thread is already vast, with an answer for almost every possible question posted multiple time's. How many times can you post "you can't install this Rom with CWM"

But still just a few posts away find "now my phone won't boot, I used latest cwm which works fine with suchandsuch Rom"

Now it has a new Q&A thread where the same questions will continue to be asked by newcomers to the Rom and then answered probably by the same bunch of helpful users. You know who you are ;). So you make a good point here [MENTION=4654136]alray[/MENTION]. Will development threads now be monitored and have all non development related questions moved to the appropriate Q&A?

Putting a link in the main dev thread simply won't work. Let's face it most users don't even read the first page of a Rom development thread before flashing a rom. That's why we see so many repeated questions.

As I say I can see what there trying to do. And if it works I can definitely see the benefits. But to make it work will take a lot of time and effort maybe. (not that I know much about the moderation of forums or forum admin tools, maybe it can be automatically policed some how ) :dunno:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Principle is good but not correctly integrated to the forum imo. They should add some sort of control when posting in a DevDB project, for example, when you click on "post reply" button, this could open a box where you select: "I'm about the post a question/answer" , "I want to post a review" , "I want to post a bug report" , "I want to request a feature" or "I want post something about development of this project" then redirect members to the correct DevDB tab or simply automatically move the post to the correct devDB tab (discussion/features request/Q&A/Bug report/review).

And the dev discussion section could be reserved for RC/RD/RT etc etc as OP's request
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
I like the multiple choice thing, would definitely be a better approach imo :good: Another thing that sprang to mind after I finished my last post, Unless it is correctly handled, how long do you think it will take for people to start putting the same post in both the Q&A and the main thread hoping to get answered quicker. Not very I don't think.

Editing the mixer XML would do this.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] energeiakos:
And how can I do it?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Critical Detox:
From the root directory, go to /system/etc/mixer_paths.xml this file can break audio for you so please make a backup of the original before editing it, now you're going to be looking for something very similar or the same as I've pasted for example,

<path name="speaker">

<path name="fb-protection" />

<ctl name="SLIM RX1 MUX" value="AIF1_PB" />

<ctl name="SLIM_0_RX Channels" value="One" />

<ctl name="RX3 MIX1 INP1" value="RX1" />

<ctl name="RX3 Digital Volume" value="67" />

<ctl name="RX4 Digital Volume" value="67" />

<ctl name="RDAC5 MUX" value="DEM3_INV" />

<ctl name="LINEOUT1 Volume" value="16" />

<ctl name="LINEOUT3 Volume" value="16" />

<ctl name="RX3 HPF cut off" value="MIN_3DB_150Hz" />

<ctl name="SPK Amp Volume" value="4" />

<ctl name="SPK Amp CLK" value="On" />

</path>

For the lines that read RX3 Digital volume value and RX4 Digital volume value you'll be editing the values of those two lines. For example if I wanted a lower maximum volume I'd change both RX3 and RX4 from 67 to 66 for a lower 100% volume, the 67 will not be the same on your device however it'll be different from mine just so you don't use mine as an exact example, lastly make sure the permissions are good and the end result should be where you want it.

PS:You're going to need to edit this several times and reboot after each time to have the changes take effect.

Remember to listen for a comfortable volume level each time after editing so you don't make it too low. And last but not least, Goodluck!

[Palm Treo 750] 100thMonkey:
Okay, so this is too weird. i have a new Cingular Treo 750. I have an IMAP account set up in the messaging. Its checks for email like every 2-4 minutes. I mean, its literally checking ALL the time. HOWEVER, I originally had it set to check every 17 minutes. MOREOVER, it continues to automatically poll at this frequnecy even after I have unchecked the automatic polling option. WTF???

ANy thoughts? How about any registry keys that I can edit?
[Palm Treo 750] RF9:
There's a bug I discovered where there are TWO different places you set up the checking interval:

Menu>Tools>Options>(account)>next>next>next>Options>

Also:

Menu>DeliveryPreferences

Both of these spots have the identical options for chosing how often you connect and how much mail you download, etc.

But if you go in to the account in to the options and set it up, you'll notice that when you go in to Menu>DeliverPreferences they don't match.

As far as I can tell Menu>DeliveryPreferences doesn't work. You have to go all the way in to the account settings and in to the options and set it there.

So this MAY be a source of your problems as far as controling how often it connects. Make sure you disable scheduled sync in both places.
[Palm Treo 750] mitchello:
Yeah I was going to say the same thing as RF9. I notice this too.
[Palm Treo 750] RF9:
Make sure you don't have it CHECKED and set to 0 min. This will make it check constantly.
[Palm Treo 750] 100thMonkey:
Actually I wasn't able to change the settings on the menu-deliv prefs interval. I was however, able to delete the account and add it again so that I avoided going into the secondary menu at all. I think that this, kinda like the today soft keys, is a bit of a Palm being over zealous
