[LG Optimus G Pro] RyeM8:
Recently, I have been introduced to Android Rooting and I have successfully rooted my phone with Towelroot. My friend installed Cyanogenmod 11 on his Galaxy S3 the other day and I have been having many problems doing the process myself. I have ripped xdadevelopers to pieces trying to find a solution, but nothing has ever been simple enough, well really efficient enough to fix my problem.

I have ROM Manager installed on my device and the latest CWM Recovery and when I get to the "Recovery" mode it does not give me all the options a normal "Recovery" screen would give me. I can not backup my current stock rom because there is no option. In doing this I accidentally wiped my phone and had no way to recover, so I lost a lot of temporary things, very frustrating.

Basically what I need to know is how to get CWM Recovery to work on my device, etc. Also I forgot to mention before that FreeGee messes up too. It says something about "loki" or something. I am sick of trying several methods that fail in the end. If you can tell me how to get CWM Recovery to work on my phone. I do have an SD Card and my phone is rooted. Please help me! I apologize if all the information is not present, but if you need to know anything specific I would be more than happy to answer your question! :(
[LG Optimus G Pro] culot:
Have you tried installing the recovery from G.Pro Recovery first? Freegee will not work for me, giving me similar errors, until I first do that. See the to the Bountyman G3 v4.x thread under 'Optimus G Pro Android Development' for more info. Works for me every time (though I choose TWRP; friggin' *hate* CWM).

Hi Guys has anyone used this program. After hard resetting my Orbit I attempted to reinstall this program but an error message appears each time I do.

Could this be to do with a registry entry or a problem with the software not liking being removed?

Either way I need to know how to get this reinstalled on my Orbit having paid for the privilage! :rolleyes:
[Moto 360] turtleman2008:
I am at a lost here on how to fix an issue i am having. About a week or 2 ago i set an alram on my moto 360 telling it to wake me up at 5. But now ever since it goes off at 5 everyday. I have factory reset my moto 360, factory reset my phone, and checked my clock and there is no alarm set for 5! I check the android wear app and it says that the alarm is handled through the clock app so i even erase data on the app. Nothing has worked. Am i missing something here?
[Moto 360] AndroidRyan:
I'd like to know the answer too
[Moto 360] vansmack:
It's not clear for the steps you've outlined here if you actually unchecked it on your watch. All alarms on the watch are handled via the watch interface.

Either through settings on the watch or by saying "Ok Google, set an alarm" get to the alarm settings.

Scroll to 5AM and uncheck the checkbox next to 5 AM. This will turn off that daily 5AM alarm.
[Moto 360] gandi54:
"show alarms" will do a similar job too....showing alarms that are set on the watch
[Moto 360] vansmack:
Even better - thanks for sharing.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cronos1388:
Hi so I was trying to use CF to root my phone and ended up screwing it somehow and bricked. I thought I'd followed the instructions well enough but I obviously did something wrong. Now my phone is stuck saying it needs to recover with Kies. This is my first Samsung phone but I'm not new to Android.

I tried installing the stock firmware through ODIN but everytime I flash it gets to installing the system ext4 and fails. I also wasn't able to recover using Kies(not even sure how you use it tbh).

If anyone could help me it would be mucho appreciated. I'm pretty pissed at myself right now.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misterjunky:
re: not bricked

Your phone is NOT bricked. If it was the screen would not even go on.

Have you tried going into recovery mode (VolumeUP/VolDown/PowerButton)

and once in Recovery Mode do a factory reset or Data Reset forgot what the

exact wording is in the stock recovery.

If you flashed twrp recovery it's ok too, just select "factory reset".

After doing that the phone should no longer display anything about Kies.

If you get to the twrp recovery screen you should be able to flash a stock

rooted rom without any issues.

If all you get is the stock recovery screen then you should be able to odin

flash the official Samsung Note 4 kitkat 4.4.4 NJ7 firmware which you may

need to download the firmware from http://SamMobile.com if you don't

already have it. (be sure you have the correct firmware for the Note 4 N910T).

Be 100% sure that the phone is FULLY POWERED DOWN before going

into Download Mode to avoid odin errors and issues.

Good luck!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cronos1388:
Thanks man. I had tried Odin at my office and nothing doing.

Got home took my time and was real calm about things and voila. May have been an md5 issue with the firmware file. Just relieved I didn't have to RMA it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chong67:
Can you check for the file with md5 before you flash from your phone? I forgot where to dig for this info.

All I I have done before is on my cook rom file, I just open it with WinRAR and test for error. If no error, then its good.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cronos1388:
On my Home PC I have a program that will put a check mark next to a file if it matches the md5. I also have Winrar at home.

I was just using the default Windows zip program and I have had problems with that and installers/roms in the past.

The only other things I did different were I removed the SD card and installed the drivers before plugging my phone in instead of letting Windows download them automatically.

I also removed the battery after I left work so it was out of the phone for a couple of hours.

The final thing I did was calm down lol after the initial shock of seeing a softbricked screen on my brand new phone.

I'm all rooted now with TWRP and running Hyperdrive so it's all smooth sailing from this point forward.

Hey all.

Hope I am in the correct forum section.

I am having difficulty with flashing a custom rom and was hoping for some direction.

Can someone please confirm i am in the correct forum section I will give details of what has happened, what I have tried in my next post.

Device/Phone model number?

Any samsung bootllop can be solved here though :P

"If someone helps, never forget to hit thanks ? "
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No1Daemon:
Thanks for the reply

Some details then

Model is Samsung S4 GT-I9505

I rushed into booting and selected an aokp rom and then selected the latest apps file for it and got stuck in an endless boot loop.

I am now trying to install a GPE Rom

gpe-rom-for-galaxy-s4-android-4-4-4

I am still able to get into recovery and download mode.

I flashed philz_touch_6.15.6-jflte.tar.md5 using odin3 on windows then rebooted into recovery and did a clean up for new rom and factory reset then attempted to move the rom onto my phone and thats where I have run into trouble. I am trying to use adb to push the file into it because I seem to have somehow wiped the sdcard(i.e. in phil recovery under mounts and storage there is no /sdcard to mount or unmount.

Thins I tried:

Using a micro sd card and copying the file to it and inserting it in the phone and installing from /sdcard1 but it just aborts the install and gives me a failed error

I tried to push the file with adb by opening terminal cd to downloads where the rom is located and used

adb push rom.zip /data/media/0 rom.zip

but this never completes. it is supposed to return the size of the files but nothing happens. I know adb can see the phone as when I type adb devices I get back a response saying recovery

Can anyone give me any pointers or advice. Happy to start from scratch but so far every tutorial/discussion on installing roms etc i have followed has failed.

Incidentally I do not have a backup because I thought I made one successfully when I fist rooted but when I went to restore it it gave me a md5 hash invalid error

Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z-Blade:
Have you tried a different recovery? You can try TWRP 2.8.1.0 and see how it goes. Just us odin to flash the recovery and use a usb card reader to put the rom onto the SD Card. To be safe you can also try a different rom, if you are after a GPE rom, I recommend Dan's GPE rom.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No1Daemon:
That is one of the roms I was hoping to install before I successfully flashed it back to stock.

Will look into it.

I couldn't use a card reader to put the rom on because I was having difficulty reading the external sd card in recovery.

I tried many different recoveries. TWRP, CMR and Philz but had no luck with any of them.

Do you know if all packages get made into a complete rom to install with Odin? like I did with my stock rom?

Just seemed an easier way to install it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tzadkiel2:
My english is very bad.

Your back Stock Rom with Odín download firmware SamMobile.

Custom, download custom again its possible corrupt download, wipe data, system, caché, Factory reset.

You have use one recovery or not installing previous backup for MD5 Missmatch

Format SD in the phone.

Proccess very slow with Odín install Stock Rom, root, recovery, install custom

Try with recovery using for previous backup for restore backup.

Mi inglés es muy malo, en inglés no te lo puedo explicar mejor.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeepankarS:
Dont flash a custom rom on an already bootlooped phone.

Either flash your stock rom or you can restore a backup via recovery.

Then start experimenting again..as flashing and more flashing and more more flashing on a bootloop can cause a few things to go crazy.

It is not recommended. But then your choice. Its not a big task of coming to a stock firmware then continuing with things...

"If someone helps, never forget to hit thanks ? "
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] No1Daemon:
I found it a big task and I am used to this sort of thing. I got there eventually but thanks for the advice. Will keep that in mind in case I get stuck in a boot loop again.

Will pay more attention to backups etc when I flash the next one.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeepankarS:
No generally what happens it people skip things while being hyper relating to flashing.

Basics are never to be left out. When adb terminals and things weren't there, the tedious processes were used to recover. :D

(flash stock..flash recovery..flash things then when you're in a boot loop if factory reset doesn't work) :P

And you should always have a backup+updated stock firmware handy.

If either doesn't work for you always have a support :D

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ingenious247:
For me, the Note 4 is everything I've ever wanted in a phone (minus dual front facing speakers, but oh well)

I LOVED my Note 3. LOVED it. It was hands down the best device I've ever owned. Until now. I didn't use my JUMP (even though I have JUMP 1.0) kept the Note 3 so I could give it to my friend who would never be able to afford a beastly phone like that.

The Note 4 is the best phone money can buy right now (IMHO). No regrets, and I got it on release day. I baby it and it already has a couple of minor scratches on the aluminum bezel but I could care less. I never dropped it, ever, and I'm ultra careful with my phones (the Note 3 is still flawless, I mean literally looks brand new). So keep that in mind, you will get scratches on the bezel, but honestly even with that, still THE best phone in the world.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amd4life:
That tweaked 3.9 is a GREAT rom, but the note4 is an all around better device. Battery life, camera focus speed, processor speed (once tweaked a little), and the s-pen does function better.

And that fast charger makes anything else obsolete. Charging to 75-90% in 1hr is just crazy.

Screen is pretty nice too :wink:

I was pretty bummed about the rear speaker, and the non wolfson dac, but I guess only a few media people even care about sound quality lol.

If it's a stretch money wise, just skip this iteration, it's improved but not mind blowing
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazzmachine:
Hey thanks a lot man! Just called the store, and the guy made it pretty clear that online order was the way to go (specifically, they had one white one at 6PM Thurs., and he said it'd likely be gone within 10 mins!) Additionally, with the online JUMP, I have 30 days to give my N3 a :crying: proper goodbye :laugh: )

I'm going to go ahead and find + order a case (slim but protective w/ built in port covers / tempered glass saver. Would welcome recommendations on that :highfive:
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jazzmachine:
Ah yes, the speaker; meant to address that. Placement / quality of a device's speaker(s) is probably the lowest priority criteria for device selection. By that I mean, if I'm doing anything on the phone where I care about sound quality (media, gaming (occasionally, but not usually), pretty much anything aside from ring / notification tones) I'm going to be connecting either headphones, APTX BT speaker, or even my 7.1 AVR. Any of those is going to produce better sound than even the best built in speakers on any mobile device, for which I would do the same. The lack of the Wolfson DAC is a drag or rather a "wtf sammy".

Situation seems to be that N4 is unquestionably "better" overall than the N3, and I basically have the choice of walking around with one or the other in my pocket, or burning 1/2 JUMP upgrades. Now that development for this phone has picked up, it seems to me that grabbing an N4 vs. holding onto my N3 would be an "emotional rather than logical" decision.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Temetka:
When you get your phone, you will love it. I switched from an AT&T S3 to this T-Mobile N4. A tad pricey, but oooh so worth it. I've wanted a Note phone for years and I finally have one. I'm tempted to root and tweak but worried about tripping Knox and any unforseen warranty hassles.

Anyway, glad you love your N3. Hope the N4 is everything you want it to be.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] @rbiter:
Cool story bro. So cool I couldnt finish it.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmotechsupport:
Yup

I thought i was the only one,

The UI feels a bit clunkier And the battery life isnt nearly as good for me as a heavy user i could get almost a full day and a half, on the note 4 i might get barely a day same use.

If i couldve taken the note 3 software multi window UI and put it in the note 4 body it would be the perfect phone.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznmode:
I have to agree. Turned my note 3 on last night to play with it and it's smooth. Still on stock rooted and animation is smoother with less lag.

Battery on my note 4 i would say lasts 15% less. I've only disconnected my phone for 5 hours with 2:15 screen time and I'm already at 55%. I'm losing about an hour total screen time compared to my note 3.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iunlock:
Yes, Note 4 is worth the JUMP....

I loved my Note 3, but I love my Note 4 more.

There are only two things that I miss about my Note 3.

Temperature sensor

Humidity sensor

If none of these matter to you, the Note 4 is a no brainer. Even if those things mattered to you (like it matters to me :P ) the Note 4 is still a no brainer.

Those are great AnTuTu benchmakrs for the Note 3, but the SD800 in the N3 is no comparison to the N4 SD805. If you look in my sig, I've hit 50K+ on stock kernel running FireKatv2.

JUMP on over! :good:

You Need Root first

You gotta downgrade to 3.5.0 first then factory reset, then download towel root and root the phone, install SU, disable OTA, then Xposed...

Disable OTA is not necessary when installing xposed with hdxposed

Would you happen to know where to get specific directions for the above? I've done the UNLOCKED fire phones (that was easy to install Google Apps), but I bought 1 used Fire Phone that was locked to AT&T and has 3.6.5 and the procedure I'm used to just doesn't work (constant gapps crashing).

Also, I did SIM unlock this phone...can i update it to 3.6.8 or is it stuck on 3.6.5 regardless?

Thanks!
[Amazon Fire Phone] Kevinreid1:
After I downgraded I had apps crashing to, to fix that you will have to do a factory reset, since the reset I have had no crashes. Every thing I have read says do not upgrade if you want root access, but you can downgrade and root anything up to 3.6.8, my even include 3.6.8 but to a search to make sure, root is on 3.5.0 and after root you can not upgrade and keep root..
[Amazon Fire Phone] lancorp:
I didn't downgrade. It was my understanding the AT&T locked phones are at 3.6.5 and unlocked are at 3.6.8 and the two are not compatible (you can't upgrade a locked phone to 3.6.8).

I'm not interested in rooting, but just want the simple GAPPS install experience I had with my unlocked 3.6.8 phone.

By factory reset, you mean wipe it?

You can see when you press start, the quality is really good, but after in 0.5 second (i guess) the quality turns to really bad and then the blue line appears. Anyone experience this issue.

the whole screen is black except for the white text.

the only options are to go into download mode, reboot, and fast reboot using the volume up key, volume down key, and power buttons respectfully. i tried each one and nothing so far has happened. personally i think this is REALLY BAD and it should be fixed.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mahst68:
:laugh:

So I wanted to get this out there early and of course we will not know until the Nexus 6 is released, but I was hoping to start a pledge thread for the development of root for the Turbo and also the possiblity of adapting the Verizon Nexus 6 ROM to work or replace the Turbo's ROM. Now, I am no programmer and don't know if this can even be attempted or done, but from an analytical view, once the Droid Turbo is rooted and hopefully the bootloader can be unlocked, I would think there would be some possiblity of the Nexus 6 ROM to make it to the Turbo.... Let at some of the facts:

Just from stats alone the Turbo is basically the Nexus 6 with a smaller screen. RAM, Cameras, Processor, Screen Resolution, etc. are the same

One would have to believe that many of the internal components will match especially when it comes to the Verizon variant of the Nexus 6. Without teardowns of both, I would believe that the radios too would be very similiar, which would be one of the major hurdles for adapting the ROM to Turbo...

I know none of these similiarites may actually amount to anything that makes root or trying to bring the Nexus 6 ROM to Turbo possible, but hell I can take the amount of flames I may get for throwing the idea out there

Of course, someone will probably make a ASOP ROM as well, but I thought I might throw it out there and spark some interest from developers that are way more knowledgable in all things android than me. Plus, I know the Android L from Kit Kat makes it a difficult challenge as well.

Not going to offer a bounty but just mad praise. :good:

Thoughts?:silly:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] AndroidFanMan:
A few things to note here....

There are no carrier specific versions of the Nexus 6. There is simply a US and International version. That being said, VZW isn't even selling them. You can buy them from the Google Play Store and take them to Big Red for activation, however.

The Nexus "should" be running an almost completely "vanilla" version of Kit Kat or Lollipop. So there wouldn't really be a benefit to porting the Nexus ROM when an AOSP build would achieve the same results.

Either way, unless a root / bootloader unlock happens (Chinese Middleman is about the only hope right now), there will be no point.

That being said, I won't pledge anything toward root until it happens.
