I'm not going to spam this thread with nonsense :) ......but

The OP knows his way around the forum, he even made android themes (afa he created them, have my doubts sometimes as his understanding about android seems a bit limited) and therefore is pretty much into android. And as a themer i also guess you know how to use fastboot commands.

Googling for firewater and sunshine will bring you exactly where you need to be.

That's all i had to say i guess.

I tried firewater bro .....but not s-off ed ...... Thats the reason i post this thread ..... My m8 is updated officially android 4.4.4 ..

So now my hboot is 3.19 os is 3.28.401.7 .. i think that's the reason I can't s off via firewater..

I wanted to ask is the firewater soff support for HTC's latest ota ? I mean hboot 3.19 and os 3.28.401.7 ?

[Verizon LG G3] flaheat88:
OK so I'm due for my an upgrade on my second line (which is my wife's), and was just wondering what's a good phone to upgrade to?

I love my g3 but my lady wants one as well so I was just thinking of giving her mines. Anything better than the lg g3, it has to be at least 5.5in or lower (its the perfect size IMO). And please don't say nexus 6 because that's too big besides I have an N5. Look forward to you guys input.
[Verizon LG G3] antp121:

[Verizon LG G3] legend221:
﻿ Im leaning towards the G3 as well, and mainly because I want a usable camera. I have a RazrHD and it has left alot to be desired in that department. Love that I was able to unlock the bootloader when I had the chance and the Rom I have is fast, stable and smoother than any other I have tried even on my Nexus 7.

Believe it or not the G3 is the top Android in most of these camera tests besting even the Samsung Galaxy 5 http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Camera-comparison-iPhone-6-and-iPhone-6-Plus-vs-iPhone-5s-Galaxy-S5-LG-G3-Lumia-1520-Xperia-Z2-HTC-One-M8_id3805/page/6

I'm pretty much between this phone and the Nexus 6 because nothing beats a custom Rom, and if it's locked it takes away my ability to maximize the performance of an already amazing device.

If anyone can comment on the battery life this would help as well.
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
IMHO, battery life meets and exceeds all I need. However, I should follow that up by saying I came from a GS3 with absolutely horrendous battery life due to it being old and me upgrading soon and so just living with it lol :) I would say that I've read a lot of people who've said there are some better phones for battery out there (GS5, even the G2 from what I've heard - keep in mind I have no personal experience here though). Either way, a day of "normal use" - checking it occasionally during work, some texting, and a reasonable amount of Web browsing - I'm usually ballpark of 50-60% by 5 to 6 pm. A day of exceptionally heavy use I may be as low as 30% at that same time, but at that point it's all irrelevant because I can simply plug it in for 20-30 minutes to easily get me though till 10 or so. Just my 2c. I wouldn't classify it as "marathon" status, but definitely sufficient for me. Hope this helps!

Edit: However, if you're thinking of getting on, I'd do it quick lol! Hopefully you can find one with the 10b firmware (exploitable for root, bootloader unlock, etc.). However, some people are now reporting success with downgrading from the recent 11c update back to 10b using the .kdz file posted in the "system update incoming" thread. Just in case you haven't been reading over there :)
[Verizon LG G3] legend221:
Thanks a lot for this information. Unfortunately I have to wait until June of next year to use my upgrade and I really want to root / boot loader unlock the G3 if I decide on it.

Maybe I'll just pull the trigger and see if hopefully I get one from the box with 10b firmware from the get go.
[Verizon LG G3] legend221:
In case we buy the G3 and there is no way to downgrade at that time is the phone still recommended if on stock?
[Verizon LG G3] ohlin5:
I would say that depends on if you can live with the "stock" feel of a device, then yes. I'll be honest that personally though, root and unlock to me personally is a near make or break deal lol :) I get bored of things too quick to not be able to "mess" with stuff haha but that's just me :)
[Verizon LG G3] legend221:
I'm the same way, just hoping that by the time I get me G3 they don't bork it up and have the latest update on it. June can't come soon enough.

Hi, I got my GS4 two weeks ago, and I'm loving it, but it have one issue that bugging me. This issue happens when I go to sleep. I wake up in the morning, and the two soft buttons on the bottom of the screen (back and option button) lite up, but the screen does not turn on, I have to force to take out the battery and put it back in, and then turn it on.

After you did a factory reset BEFORE you re installed any backup or re installed your Google account , did you tested to see if it was working right?

Do a factory reset and try it without restoring anything or configuring your google account

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drunken_m:
Hi!

Sorry, for resurrecting an old thread, but I have a very similar problem. Only, that not even the softkeys light up for me. It happens randomly. The phone simply won't wake up, it does not react to any of the keys. I have to take out the battery, or press the power button for longer than 10 sec. to force a reboot. In the battery stats I see, that the phone was "running" the whole time it just wouldn't wake up.

Every time I have this the battery seems to be warmer, so I'm guessing it's some kind of endless loop or software lockup.

Phone: Galaxy S4 GT-I9515, Black Edition

Stock ROM (4.4.2, Build: KOT49H.I915XXU1ANK2)

No root, no apps installed.

I also tried a factory reset, wiping cache, etc. I did not install any apps after the factory reset (I added my Google Account, but disabled the "Backup & Restore" option).

The issue happens very irregular. Sometimes 2-3 times a days, sometimes 1-2 days without problems.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drunken_m:
Seems to have been a problem with 4.4.2

A few days ago I updated to Lollipop (5.0.1, LRX22C.I9515XXU1BOC3), no wake-up problems since then.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drunken_m:
I think I spoke too soon. After the upgrade to Lollipop I immediately installed all my apps, did my settings, etc. No problems for almost 2 weeks!

Then last week it happened again (I think on Wednesday). Then nothing again until Saturday evening and once more on Sunday evening. Same problem. Phone simply won't wake up. After removing the battery or long-pressing the power button for a restart I see that the phone was running the whole time except that it wouldn't wake up.

At first I suspected the account sync, so I had it disabled for the last few days, but it happened even with disabled sync. I had not installed any new apps since the upgrade, so I'm fairly sure that it's not caused by any of my apps.

Battery usage seems a bit weird too (in 4.4.2 I had no "gap" between the "freeze" and the restart). See Attachment or here: http://imgur.com/cLb4sqp

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChristianBale:
One of the reasons I got the Zperia Z3 was because I was under the impression that it had a great camera. Now all I have read on this forum is about the poor camera quality, especially in low light.

Do you have any tips or tricks on how to take better pictures with the Z3? Special Manuel settings? Use a different Camera app like the Google Camera? What works best for taking low light pictures? Etc?

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] se1000:
:good: hilarious!

Generally speaking, the Z3 isn't terribly different than other smartphones, but it is a lot more configurable.

In super low light, I actually find that the mode superior auto chooses will work pretty well.

In good light, I find the key is to remember that the Z3 will have a "shallower" range of focus (depth of focus) than other smartphones, so making sure you tap the area you want the picture to be focused on is important.

Finally, the dedicated camera button is dual-stage, the first is to lock focus, this is a great feature. The more you use this, the more you'll find that you'll get the pictures you want.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonathan-H:
Pick manual mode, 20mp, touch to focus, and use the on screen camera button. Using the physical button introduces a lot of camera shake which really shows up on 20mp shots.

I find the 20mp shots come out brilliant.

Waiting on an update to improve Superior auto.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droidDHD:

>for general photos default mode is ok

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danw_oz:
I am not sure why people go on about poor low light, it is not the best out there but it is hardly poor. It's better than most point and shoot cameras. Each iteration of the Z series cameras improves slightly on the quality.

Here is a shot, handheld low light ISO2000, superior auto with a Sony Z1

Here is an early firmware Z1 low light ISO800

https://www.flickr.com/photos/dan-wilson/10819208553/

Manual mode will give you the best results, plus allow you to get 20MP shots.

Here is a macro'ish shot manual mode, at full size you can see the pollen details, depth of field shallow due to the F2 aperture (again old Sony Z1)

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t5s:
Downgrade your stock kernel to a version earlier than about June, which is (was) still vulnerable to the root exploit (security hole) that towelroot is using. There is a thread here (something about knox 0x0 in the title IIRC), where somebody described how to extract/isolate the kernel from a ROM. Flash that old Kernel via Odin and then run towelroot. After that you extract the original kernel from the stock ROM package you are currently using and flash it again. Not that easy, but it works and you'll learn a lot. Be sure that you understand what you are doing. Read some threads here..

Will lollipop destroy our chances for root? Upgrading to this very exciting, tempting, operating system, will take away our chance to modify our own device.... It is our device, why can't we use it, do with it, how we want. Upgrade equals no root... Does anyone know this very important answer to this horrible question. Upgrade to lollipop means no root, ever?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] nyydynasty:
there's no way to tell if that is true or not. Hell, we dont even have root right now, without lollipop. In general, if you want to keep root access, its wise not to accept any OTA updates but thats not always the case. Only time will tell....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] note3palermo:
I'm going to update. regardless. Even with Apple and their jailbreak and their iOS, you update and lose the cydia.. The god of their phone and iPad jailbreak. Live it and love it. With us and Android, I'll update and hope that someone will be able to root it. As I read, what I read, it will be ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE to do. If not IMPOSSIBLE. ANYONE want to back me up on this? I hate to say it due to I want root a bad as, well less than sex, but I want it. Lollipop, blocks all root ability from that update forth.... Anyone? Please bring the knowledge
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] nyydynasty:
I doubt lollipop will be the end all for root access but it will likely be extremely difficult. There always a vulnerability somewhere that a Dev can exploit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] note3palermo:
That's kinda what I'm hoping. With every update, there was a jailbreak, a root. Someone, somewhere out there will get us the coveted, elusive root exploit. OR will these tricks of the trade, will the tweaks be a built in commodity? Will they just be able to be Installed free of root restrictions. Let's get the root done people. Satisfy the masses
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] imperfection:
It's honestly not that serious. I have owned every Nexus phone (except the 6 obviously) and rooted them all except for the 5. I missed the CM11 themes but there are enough apps for customizations out there now that I didn't feel the need to do anything to the phone. If you're THAT concerned, I'd recommend selling your phone when the N6 comes out and buy that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ShrekOpher:
From everything that is coming out that I have read about Android L it looks like a few of the apps may be able to work without root if they are reprogrammed correctly. It looks like Google wants everyone to be able to have the functions they need \ want without compromising the security of the phone.

Just saw today that Write To External SD will be fixed in Lollipop without root

[Design, Prototyping, UI, Graphics] axonn:
Hello there :). I'm a bit in doubt as to what approach I should take when creating an application which should accomplish the following: use the USB connection between the device and the Windows-PC to display on the device's screen some information sent by an application residing on the PC. The phone should always operate in airplane mode but Android Debug Bridge works fine on it.

What I'd like to do is to write a Java Application (running on Windows) which reads from a text file and puts that information on the Android device's screen, but I don't know if there are any libraries I can use in a JDK application to achieve this.

Also, I'm not even sure if using ADB is the best option. Perhaps I could initiate communication via USB in a different way?

Please share with me your architectural advice. I would REALLY appreciate some examples or open source projects which achieve similar things. I'm a senior developer but I have very little experience with Java or Android (my background is C#/C++/ECMAScript).

Hey guys,

New to the forum, if I need to post this elsewhere, please say so and I will!

So I have been successfully running cyanogenmod 11 for about 6mo now. Two days ago, my google account wouldnt sync anymore.

I read up on it and it was a corruption in a file and I needed to restore my cyanogenmod

Heres where I f'd up. I took the phone into TWRP, had my backup on my SD card so I wiped the rest of the phone. I accidentally did not uncheck the box for my SD card and wiped it too.

Now, I have no OS installed and im stuck in a boot loop.

I tried launching odin on my PC and reloading the factory firmware but it fails everytime. I took it to best buy and they couldnt fix it with their smart tool. And I cant send it back to samsung because it shows that Ive flashed it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
