[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] hwardlaw01:
My setup was the Sprint Galaxy S4 SPH - L720 running Jellybean 4.3 NAE firmware & Pioneer Appradio 3. Long story short, I soft bricked my phone trying to upgrade to a Negaman's Rom & Kernal. Found the stock NAE firmware and flashed through Odin to get back running. Since i had already been rooted since Nov 2013, unbeknownst to me there was a new upgrade out. Now I'm running running Kitkat 4.4.2 NG2 firmware. I used to be able to use terminal and command

pm disable com.sec.knox.seandroid

Commands to enable permission for use with my Pioneer Appradio 3. But now SeLinux says enforcing and commands don't work. So that's my fault for not checking first. Now my question is, is can I roll back to Jellybean 4.3 or is there a Rom and/or Kernal that will change SeLinux from enforcing to permissive for the Sprint variant of the Galaxy S4 Sph-L720. I don't need a bunch of features, I just need to get back to permissive. I've seen similar for other GS4 variants, the GS5, & even the Note 3, just nothing for Sprint. Has development ceased for the Sprint GS4? Is all hope lost? Any suggestions or forum suggestions?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] flight243:
- Nope, you can't roll back to older versions as Samsung is applying something called rollback prevention to avoid this. You can, however, downgrade your modem to any other version of your choice.

- Is your device rooted? You will be able to disable com.sec.knox.seandroid when rooted but that will not set your SELinux status to permissive, it only disables Knox agent. Afaik, the way to set SELinux to permissive temporarily is typing in a terminal emulator (either installed in the device or via USB) setenforce 0 but this change will revert to enforcing when rebooting the device. Don't know if there is a script that sets it to permissive at every boot, though....

- Development is not halted, at least ROM development which are now unified for all GS4 variants.

Hope that helps!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] kevinrocksman:
Back in the past I tried to increase the limit of the note 3s video recording size, I was able to increase the length of video but the file size limit seemed to always stop at 3.8GB (or in any case 4GB "4,294,967,296" FFFFFFFF). Now I would like to get this started back up fresh and new. I am asking for the help of developers to help me find what is causing the video recording to stop at 3.8GB if the note 4 has this same problem which I imagine it will.

If interested

in helping please

comment here or message me.

I am seriously dedicating 99% of my free time to figure this out due to wanting to record longer than 13 minutes (most I could get out of 4k on the note 3).

Also hoping to increase quality of pictures and of all video modes. I know how to decomplie but not sure how to recompile or read everything in the file. So I am asking for others help on this project. I was pretty upset to fail on the note 3 but the note 4 looks to be another potential project.

Ill be out for the next few days for a interview but here are the smali files to look through. Maxfilesize or MaxRecording size were used in the note3 but i cant seem to find it in here so they might be using something different. Anyone know hex?

Ok here's what I've found so far:

Not sure about this section yet

0x80t 0xbbt 0x0t 0x0t = 0xbb80 = 48000

so

0x00t 0x7dt 0x0t 0x0t = 32000 (According to alexhc18 that decreases background hissing)

I was wondering if I got a Google Play Nexus 6 (Not a Sprint Version, one sold on Google play) ,could I activate it on Sprint? I did it with the nexus 5... Just wondering if it's the same for the Nexus?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ilostmypistons:
I'm sure it will be the same as the N5.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2fastkuztoms:
It should work, im buying on play to use it on sprint, the n5 activation was a confusion because was the first time, this time should be easy to active it. The worst scenario would be if the n6 dont have a sim on the box and you would need to ask sprint for one.

[General Questions and Answers] Da9L:
Hello

I have a device which i would like to try and create a custom kernel for, to be able to squeeze a little more performance out of the device.

The device is a HTC Desire 200

and the PC im trying to this is on is running the newest Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit os.

I have gathered a kernel source from HTC. With it a readme told me which toolchain to get. I got this and managed to enter a menu where i could enable/disable different parts of the Kernel like HTC Performance lock and so fourth.

After this i had to compile it, but this process has given me some trouble giving me these errors.

Can anyone assist me in how i can prevent this error ? I even get these errors when i try to just compile the kernel without changing anything.

Thanks !

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scallawag:
On my G3 the auto brightness is a little low for me. Any tweaks to adjust this. I am rooted and do use Xposed. I do use the G3 TweaksBox Xposed module but can't find a setting for this.

On the Galaxy S5 the Wanam Xposed module will let the auto brightness be adjusted but it does me no good as I prefer the G3.

Thanks for any help.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BioVolt:
If you set auto brightness on, you can still adjust the brightness slider to a brighter setting and the auto brightness will remain but with whatever added brightness you select.

Else you can also use an app like "lux" from the playstore.

I have updated my I9505 according to this thread (http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/general/guide-how-to-install-custom-roms-t2852310), using ROM I9505VJUFNB2_I9505ZTOFNB3_I9505VJUFNB2_HOME.tar.md5

Everything was ok, but then I found this thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2862768) that teaches how to root kitkat without tripping knox. Then I decided to do it. When looking for the Kernel for the specific version, I did not find the kernel for the FNB2 version and I also realized that there were newer versions of the ZTO variant (Brasil) for I9505. Then I decided to install version GNH2, to which I found the needed stock kernel.

But unfortunately I found out that version GNH2 is not stable; I have it installed since one week ago and the phone resets alone several times a day since then. Now I tried to go back to the stable version FNB2, but I receive the message saying that process "android.media.process" has stopped. And when I hit OK, the message turns off for one second and appears again, making the use of the phone virtually impossible. Now, I am downloading version GNI2_ZTO, hoping that this can be corrected, but I need to find stock kernel for GNI2 in order to try to root it again

Where could I find it, please?
[General Questions and Answers] iansan5653:
Alright, so yesterday I tried to root my tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1 Wifi) yesterday by installing TWRP and then loading the Superuser zip found in their link in the play store. It worked fine--I had root access and all was going fairly well. I then tried to make a small tweak to the build.prop file by changing ro.build.version.codename from REL to L.

When I rebooted to apply that change, I could not start up, so I did a factory reset (not a big deal, no essential files on there). It then booted fine, but when I reinstalled/updated all my apps, the Google services were crashing like mad. So I reverted the build.prop file back to REL and again it would reboot, so I did another factory reset and all was good; the Google apps were fine.

Well I was still rooted and I wanted to take advantage of all that time I spent doing it, so I downloaded the bootanimation zip found on this thread and replaced my bootanimation.zip that was already on there. I restarted to see the animation, and this is when the real nightmare started happening. I could not boot now at all.

I did another factory reset, and still it wouldn't boot. I then used TWRP to do a full reset, and still nothing. I did an advanced reset and somehow managed to delete the operating system files (I have no idea how), causing TWRP to say that no operating system was installed. I still couldn't boot, of course.

Finally, I decided I had had enough of this rooting ****. I searched all over the internet looking for a North American version of my stock ROM, and finally found one posted on this forum post. I wouldn't normally trust any random file, but I was getting desperate here. I used Odin to flash that ROM, and there were no errors. Now when I go into recovery, it gives me stock and not TWRP, so I know that was probably successful.

However, I still cannot boot. I get stuck on the screen that says Samsung Galaxy Tab 3, which sometimes goes away and then comes back. I can't send it in for warranty, because it still says "custom" in the recovery mode. How can I fix this? any ideas?

I really want my tablet back :crying:

Hello all,

I flashed a T-mobile 4.4.4 ROM onto my AT&T 4.4.4 Moto X today to test it. I've since reverted back to my AT&T 4.4.4.

My question to you...is there any real benefit over the T-mobile ROM, other than little to no bloatware?

Pros, or Cons?

I found that my 4g LTE was working, and WiFi too. Everything seemed to work. IDK about Wi-Fi calling?

Hi everybody I am coming from HTC one m8 thus sound guality is very important for me. I tried z3 at 4 different stores. Only at 1 of them the top speaker didn't crackle badly playing just the songs which the walkman app has preloaded. What is the deal with the top speaker? Does it do the same for you? I was very dissapointed because after reading many reviews of the z3, (none of them reports such a problem), I thought it could be my next phone...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav.tella:
I have heard this from others as well, mine seems balanced though. I made my dad get a M8, it does sound slightly better than the Z3.

Coming back to your Z3 return it and test the new one before keeping, if you are getting from a carrier. My sister's GS4 had a yellow tint screen at the top so I took her to T-Mobile and they let here test out other brand new GS4s before replacing hers. Go and do the same!
