[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stildawn:
Hi All

I have a Note 3 SM-N9005, I live in NZ and it works on the Vodafone NZ network here using my SIM card (don't know if these details are important or not).

Basically I've been having issues with it mainly in regards to sluggishness, especially when dialling, for example if I touch a contact and then touch "call" it will sometimes take up to 30 seconds or so to initiate the dialling.

So I was thinking about going down the root/rom route. I have never ever done this before so I'm a complete noob.

So I'm after a easy to install/use ROM, basically I would love to keep all the S-Pen features, and a few of the Samsung apps (mainly IR Remote (watchon), S-Note, etc). I also currently use Nova Launcher which is awesome for the screen realestate (customizing icons grid, widget sizes, padding etc). I also use the following widgets extensively:

Calendar Month view (I used to use S-Planner month view widget, but that no longer worked with Nova, so found another month view one)

HD Widgets (Weather/Clock)

DashClock (the lock screen widget thing)

Lock Screen Widget

Youtube Widget

System Monitor (a bunch of widgets showing CPU, RAM, Battery, Storage etc)

Onavo Count (showing internet usage)

Would like to keep all these as well.

I don't know if you guys need all this info, but yeah, let me know if you need any more info.

Cheers
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
OK so you want to keep TouchWiz based ROMs aka Samsung bases. There are plenty in the dev section. It really depends on what you want to customise and do tbh.

Alliance, Crash, civatos ROM, sweetRom etc, there's plenty more too. It's trial and error as to which you prefer/like - I personally used Alliance ROM from the start as soon as it was released, but again it's personal preference.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stildawn:
So all of those keep all the same features of the Note 3? I've noticed a few S5 roms, one even said "the best of S5 but with a s-pen" would these keep the S-Pen features or no?

Do Roms come with their own launchers? Or can I still use Nova?

Also is there a rooting/rom installing guide here on the forums somewhere for the Note 3?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Not 100% sure about the S5 ROMS. yeah they all have launchers but you can install NOVA and use as normal. In regards to root, if you have a custom recovery you can just flash SuperSU.zip but most custom ROMs are pre-rooted already.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stildawn:
Haha you've lost me already, I was under the impression I need to root my phone to install a custom ROM? I have no idea what custom recovery is for example. Need to find some guides on this I think.

Good cause I paid for Nova and quite like it.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Ah OK so you have a bit of reading to do.

I'll briefly sum it up for you.

Using ODIN, flash a recovery image aka TWRP. (make sure you have the right version) you don't need root to flash a custom recovery. Then you can download a ROM to your device and flash it.

But first, go to the general section in this forum of the Note 3, read the stickies regarding root, custom recovery and what events can and do indeed happen and most importantly if you make a boo-boo how to fix it.

Reading is the best advice I can give you, in fact its the best advice you'll receive from anyone in this forum.

Spend a few days, if not longer familiarising yourself with how the whole root/custom recovery process works and then IF you feel confident, go ahead and try it. Or simply post and ask for advice/help.

Video problems

I love this ROM! It's the only LTE ROM available, but I can't use it due to the video problems. Netflix does not function and I haven't been able to get the workaround to remedy the problem. Also, I can't view videos from the web. Always receive an error message. Lastly, on youtube, I have to set the quality down to view videos. If these problems were resolved, this would definitely be my ROM of choice.
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kujo1b09:
Netflix and Video Problems

This ROM would be perfect if only the Netflix issues (I tried the fix, it didn't work) and other video issues could be worked out. Being the only ROM that has been able to get Bluetooth operable for the LTE version. This would be priceless. Is a Lolipop version of LS coming out any time soon?

I have a new G3 through T-MO. It is completely stock. I cannot get my PC (Windows 7) to recognize it as a drive, I have installed the latest drivers manually. Is there a setting on the phone that I can't find? This is killing me! I don't want to install the LG bloatware to manage files, I don't need that.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Did you figure this out? Enable the Developer Options yet?
[T-Mobile LG G3] tribalartgod:
-Do you get a USB connection notification on your task bar at all? You absolutely should. If you do, swipe down, select it, and make sure MTP is selected

-Are you using the cable that came with the phone?

-Have you tried a different USB port? Different PC?

-Make sure you have a good cable first. Once that is a known good cable that possibility can be ruled out. Even if the cable is brand new, it can still be a bad cable...

-Try removing your USB host drivers in device manager, and rebooting. Sometimes they just need to be refreshed. Don't worry... You mouse and keyboard may stop working during this. The reboot reinstalls them, so don't sweat it.

-Run an error check on your PC's hard drive. (Right click your primary drive > properties > tools tab > check now > leave the settings alone > click ok > confirm scheduled check > reboot)

Please update with your results

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEREKTROTTER:
Hi,

just recieved my Amazon Fire TV - 51.1.0.1_user_510055620

upon recieving it i have added my UK amazon account but it is still displaying everything in american and says i dont have prime.

What pre-rooted firmware do i need to access my UK services? netflix/amazon prime

I want to ensure i dont lose root access or brick it.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEREKTROTTER:
Please someone help?

Is it safe to unlock the bootloader and install latest pre-root?

I know this is fairly new so dont want to risk bricking or lose any functionality.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eskay993:
Yes it's safe to unlock bootloader an install latest pre-root. You can get up to firmware 51.1.4.0 and keep root if you follow the guides here and on aftvnews.com.

In terms of getting UK Prime to work, I think you need to be on at least 51.1.3.0. I also noticed that it took like 10-15 mins for it to recognise my UK prime account after logging in to my Amazon.co.uk account. Before that, it kept showing the "try prime for free" tags everywhere.

Okay, I have not flashed in about a year since I got my knox-ridden Note 3 and I am ready to get back into the game. I have busted knox and installed CWM touch and have a couple of questions

Do you still have to do a full wipe on all roms first time out?

Is there a way to quickly reinstall all of your programs that is reliable (cwm backup, titanium etc)

If yes to last what should i not restore does anything cause problems

Are there any tips

What is the most stable full featured rom (I know everyone has a favorite)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Full wipe is advisable yes, but I've dirty flashed plenty of times previously.

Yeah you can use titanium backup to restore apps just don't do it for system apps

Make sure you make an EFS backup, use the script i n the dev section and avoid play store efs backup apps as they brick Samsung devices.

Cwm touch is great, however it's not supported anymore (philz has stopped development and cwm is outdated) switch over to TWRP.

To summerise.

Flash twrp (don't need root FYI) then flash your ROMs as and when you need/want.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HighJet:
Hi guys!

I somehow managed to slightly bend mt G3 by dropping something on it and now like a cm of the border is a bit off the screen. In the process i also heard like a crack sound, but 1 of the flip-cover's flaps (or whatever they're called) broke so i figure that's where it came from.

The phone runs smoothly and i didn't encounter any problems but i am wondering though if it can affect in any way the health of the device, except the visual flaw, like could some parts have moved or something like that.

So, could there be any internal damage caused by the bending?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crzygrmn:
I don't think so. When I removed my main board it was pretty flexible. The only besides visual, resell is going to be tuff :p
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] if4ct0r:
The most vulnerable part to bending is probably the display unit, but if that looks okay then you're probably good. It actually depends on the degree and point of bend basically, I've seen internal ribbon connectors get loose and pop out due to bends in some phones. A quick check for all the hardware units and sensors should rule that out.

[XDA Assist] dekor:
Hello,

To start with, I'm new to Android. I work in IT and have always been a windows/linux desktop user with combination of Windows phone/maemo/IoS for mobiles.

Basically my Nannu has handed me a tablet he picked up cheap and wants me to set it up. All seems to be running ok, set up a gmail account, checked wifi/camera etc are working. Then noticed that when launching the browser it defaults to google.com.hk. If I change the homepage in the browsers settings it reverts everytime I exit the app and relaunch.

Also little problems such as signing into skype fails, despite correct credentials and if i select the "trouble signing in" option I'm taking to a chinese version of skype website.

I've reset to factory defaults but this doesn't make a difference.

So I'm looking to flash the device with a ROM as suspect one currently loaded is custom Chinese ROM.

I've rooted the device and was looking at Shuame to flash it but unfortunately my Chinese is a little rusty/non-existent.

I thought maybe I could remove the default browser using Kinguser but it won't allow me to remove as its a system component.

There is no model info on the exterior of the tablet. Here is from the "about tablet" section in settings:

Processor: DualCore -A23

Model Number: TY_Q8H

Android Version: 4.2.2

Firmware Version: v2.0.8

Kernel Version: 3.4.9 android10@linux2 #365

Build Number: TY_POLARIS_ENG 4.2.2 JDQ39 20140528 test-keys

If anyone can advise or point me in the right direction for where I can find a ROM and a good tool to use to apply this I would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance!

[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] jae_63:
Hi,

I'm running CM 10.2, and using TWRP 2.7.1.2 Recovery.

I think that when I was "cleaning" my phone prior to installing ROMs, I was a little too thorough, since based upon my poor 3G/4G performance/coverage, I guess that my PRL list is pretty minimal.

I gather that the procedure to fix this is roughly:

Make a Nandroid backup from Recovery

install a stock ROM

update to latest PRL

Restore the Nandroid backup

But I don't understand some of the fine details. In particular:

When preparing the Nandroid backup, what options does one use?

What sort of "wipe" if any, does one perform at this point prior to installing the stock ROM

HOW does one install the stock ROM image asanti_c_sprint-user-4.1.2-9.8.2Q-122_XT897_FFW-5-6-release-keys-cid9.xml.zip ?! It looks a little different than custom ROMs

After updating the PRL, what sort of "wipe" should I perform prior to recovering from my Nandroid backup? I'd like to be thorough, but not so thorough that I wipe out the PRL update. Where does that PRL list reside?

Does the Nandroid backup include the ROM images which I flashed? (CM 10.2 and the corresponding GAPPS) If not, then in what order does one flash ROM images and recover my Nandroid backup?

TIA ...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
1. Doesn't matter, whatever you feel you need to restore. At a minimum backup system. Backup data if you want your data saved...

2. None, if you use RSD Lite to reinstall stock it will wipe ALL. Everything will be back to stock (including recovery).

3. RSD Lite.

4. PRL List should not be wipe-able from recovery, AFAIK. Factory reset should be fine.

5. The backup will include whatever was currently running on your phone - CM, gapps, any installed applications, etc. Simply restore your backup, no order of operations here. Of course you'll need to reflash TWRP in order to restore your backup (again, flashing with RSD Lite resets the ENTIRE phone, including custom recovery).

If you had taken a backup of the stock setup, you could skip the whole RSD Lite crap and just restore your stock setup, download the PRL, and restore your CM setup. For future reference, step #1 after getting custom recovery is always always ALWAYS take a backup of your working stock setup before making any other changes.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] jae_63:
Thanks for your detailed response. As a Mac user, I believe that RSD Lite isn't a viable option for me. I do have another Motorola Photon Q phone with the stock ICS image, but don't know whether that is helpful in this case.

I guess that I need a strategy using adb, fastboot and TWRP. Thanks ...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
The stock backup from that other Q would work. Just do a factory wipe and restore 'system' only from that other Q.
