[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caezec:
My advice is to you, is that if you install Mokee rom, do not update it with OTA update. This is what I think broke the network for me. Even after restoring my phone to factory conditions and using Kies, I still had no network. I ended up going to the nTelos store, where they had to reset the network service for my phone on their end... strange.

Anyway, I have made a few roms work, and I suspect I could make more. If you maintain your apn settings, and build.prop, you should be able to make Spirit rom work. The same thing is true for Miui. However, if I remember from my experience correctly, if you do install Miui, then I THINK you should not restore your original build.prop; it may work without it... just restore the apn settings. When you do this, you may have to change the preferred network mode... I am a little freaked out, after my previous experience with Mokee rom, to mess with this any longer, though. I do have a problem with Spirit rom: if I use the Timely alarm clock, the time panel is miscolored, but I believe that could possibly? be fixed by flashing a different kernel. I plan on flashing Spirit tonight.... stock uses up my battery too fast, and Spirit just feels more responsive.

EDIT: I just re-flashed Spirit Rom, and they fixed the discoloration in the most recent version! Also, as before, my 3g and WiFi work fine. :)

Took me days...

The CSpire shares the model number and ROM. The US Cellular CM11 is the closest. Somewhere in that I lost my ability to send texts (not sure if it's the SMSC or...) and didn't get it back when I ODIN'd to stock. I would LOVE to have CM support for this model.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lexridge:
I also am in the same boat as you guys. I would love to get another reliable ROM on this phone. I just have bad memories of purchasing my last one (Sprint GS3) from ebay, and having one hell of a time making the MMS work after flashing it for nTelos. However, I never did have to mess with any of the APNs or build.prop settings on that one. I would think the Sprint ROMs should be the closest compatible ROM, being that nTelos and Sprint do share towers in WVa and Va (Sprint actually has zero towers in these states, and leases nTelos towers instead).

Is using EFS Backup by Wanam a good method to insure the EFS does not get screwed up?

You might try saving out your wpa_supplicant file from the stock ROM and replacing it on the flashed ROM. This has worked for me before on my GS3. That might take care of the wifi anyway.

I'm also on ntelos with the s5 now. But it is a us cellular unlocked by them phone. Stuck in a ntelos sim card that I bought from store and everything works. Except 4g. I can live w/o it but it's kinda like a puzzle now. How could I enable this to work on ntelos?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lexridge:
Depending on where you are, ntelos does not have 4G in many places yet. It's still very spotty in West Virginia.

Has anyone taken the OTA Lollipop update? If so, how is it working and does it lock or put in a new bootloader?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i4get75:
I have. It's a little laggy at times, gets really hot when using it while charging and battery drains a little faster. Not sure about the bootloader
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lexridge:
I think I will hold off for a while. My stock NK1 is laggy enough as is. Damn, I wish there was a compatible ASOP ROM available for this phone. :(

Honestly, this Samsung G5 is the absolute worst phone I have ever owned! I would like to get a S6, but my experience has been so bad with this S5, I am almost afraid to stick with Samsung. However, my S3 was awesome!

Just found out that the heart rate sensor is active when the phone is on no matter if S Health is open or not.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] puterdoc:
I am in the Richmond area on Ntelos. They have stated they have sold their bandwidth to T-Mobile and we are to find another carrier. My phone is not even a year old and no other carrier will activate it. Being I own mine outright and paid close to $600, I am about to lose my mind knowing that I will have a shiny expensive very small tablet in a few months. Has anyone a clue how to change this phone over to GSM or something useful. Verizon refused to even try, though I know when I tried Straight Talk's Verizon Sim it did dial to Verizon's customer service. But Straight Talk nor Verizon would activate it.

Ideas and suggestions welcome.

page plus,i am an ntelos dealer and pageplus dealer i flash phones to and from both companies everyday i am in ruckersville va 12 mile north of charlottesville lemme know if you need help you right its the enitre eastern side of the companyh is gone now to tmobile but you can still activate on frawg..ive done many for customers
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] puterdoc:
Thanks for the info. I am on the frawg side of things now. Their plans were too much when mine ended and I didn't need a phone at the time. Then a few years later, yeah I made my S1 last almost 4 years, I bought the S5 late last year outright. Loved the S1. Made that do everything it just did everything slow at the end.

Anyway, am glad there are options of some sort. Have been reading the reviews of pageplus. What kind of speeds are you getting on it with 4G? Their map shows coverage everywhere which makes me a bit uneasy, as in too good to be true. Is it a simple flash or require editing?

If I can't do something else with the phone, I may try the band opening options. According to the phone specs, it should already have all the Verizon bands but they refuse to activate it due to the meid it seems. I have a feeling this topic may get more viewers as the Ntelos off switch day comes closer.

In case nobody has seen this, there is a now a CyanogenMod 5.1.1 ROM available now for nTelos. I have been running it for 3 days now and I really like it. Good battery life too. Very stable and very speedy. There are some occasional bluetooth audio stuttering issues, but nothing terrible.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Samsung_Crazy1447:
My Tab S 8.4 can not connect to the New Microsoft Display adapter yet my Galaxy S5 can and does so very well if I might add. Anyone else have the same problem or know how to fix this issue? I have already done all of the updates available for my Tab S which is what the manual said to do before I try and connect it to the display adapter and it will not connect. It only sits there and goes through a cycle of trying to connect and my TV screen going blank like it does right before it connects to my GS5 but it goes right back the connection screen from the beginning and does it again and again a few times and then my Tab S says connection error. It makes me so mad and I am thinking about returning it but I really like how it works on my phone I just really wanted it to connect to my Tab S. If anyone can help me figure this out I would be so very thankful!:good:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skytbest:
I'm using the SuperSU app on my S3 running KitKat (slimkat 7). I have recently been unable to grant any new apps superuser access. The dialog appears on my screen that "Application X is requesting superuser access" and it has the usual two buttons "Grant" and "Deny" but I cannot press anything. The screen is just unresponsive. So every time I end up having to wait for the timer to count down to 0 and it will automatically deny the request.

Any ideas? Is there a better SuperUser app to be using? I was always under the impression that SuperSU was the definitive app. I remember in the past I had been using another SU app and I had to switch over to SuperSU in order for something to work correctly.

Any help is appreciated!!

Can you use the Skinomi Full Body Skin+Screen Protector for Samsung Galaxy Note 4 from http://www.ebay.com/itm/Skinomi-Ful...ector-for-Samsung-Galaxy-Note-4-/141434842510 to protect the metal frame from scratches or will this product damage the paint?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] aturyan:
It will protect the metal from scratches and I don't see why it will damage the paint, it's just a skin. I prefer a case though as these skins make the phone feel glossy and just not that great feeling.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] arjun90:
Does the skin have the capacity to rip the paint off as you peal the skin (in case you need to reapply)?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] aturyan:
I doubt it.

---------- Post added at 06:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:32 PM ----------

Just use a hair dryer to heat the skin up before taking it off, it really helps.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] OnlinePredator:
Looks like it doesn't cover the shiny metal part of the frame.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Sam3gX:
Yeah it only protects the painted part of the frame. I have a skinomi full body on my Note 4.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] iverson3-1:
How has the bezel held up on your phone? Any scratches? I had the skinomi on my note 3 but idk if i want it on the note 4, people are saying it scratches easy.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] arjun90:
Every single Note 4 out of the box has predisposing micro-scratches. No way to avoid them. I've gone through close to a dozen Note 4's, lost count. Even with careful handling, you are bound to get micro scratches on the chamfered metal edges (made out of "low-quality" metal). The Skinomi DOES NOT cover these areas. There are no manufacturers making protection for these areas. If these edges bother you, I suggest avoid the Note 4 or encase the phone in glass box (like those found in the Museums), and just stare at it, and don't touch it till the Next Big Thing Arrives. No kidding. :D
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] jazzmachine:
I saw this recommendation in a of couple places, so I'm not sure who to attribute this excellent suggestion to, passing it on... but (if you pretty much always have your phone in a case), then wrap the bezel all the way around with kapton tape, just leaving a little gap for the ports / sensors. Say good bye to questions of whether or not a case that you like would scratch your bezel: it won't. That's a pretty sweet deal actually, if there's a case that you really dig but ruled it out due to reports of scratches, now you can use any case you like without even thinking about that kind of thing. I took a guess re: size and ordered a roll of 1/3" wide tape for $4 on Amazon. 1/3' works, but 1/4" (assuming they make it) would make it look a lot cleaner. Then you can use the rest for taping kapton (??) :p
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] arjun90:
Do you have a link for the one on Amazon. I'd gladly order one to be on the safe side. :)

Seems like that's the only solution. Does Kapton tape come in other colors? What thicknesses are available?

The width needs to be in millimeters.

Here's the 1/4, too thick though

http://www.amazon.com/Bertech-Yards...=1421675351&sr=8-16&keywords=1/3"+wide+kapton
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] jazzmachine:
Sure, no problem; this is the one that I ordered http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HFN669Y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Color-wise, I don't think it really comes it different colors... the tape itself is this translucent gold-ish color, and when I ordered it I figured that my phone is in a case 99% of the time anyway in case it hurt the aesthetics. However, after I had applied it, it turned out to be translucent enough that it was barely noticeable. In fact, that's why I recommend 1/4" wide tape over 1/3" (each being 1mm thick), which I kind of had to fold over the edges in a few paces. I think that 1/4" would definitely provide sufficient coverage and would look clean enough if you ever take your phone out of the case. The one I ordered works fine, but I usually need to fix it up a little whenever I put on a different case (and make sure none of it is sticking out from under the cover on the screen). It's a nice little "hack" to keep your hardware in primo condition :good:

Hi there, before upgrading to WM6, i wanted to sync my universal with outlook to have all the contacts and calendar entries backed up. Active sync showedsuccessful sync, but contacts didnt sync at all. after trying few more times, i thought i leave it, just copy PIM.VOL to sd, as i usualy do, upgrade, and then replace the clea PIM with the backed up one.

the problem started, when my backed up PIM seem to shrink in size as soon as i restart the device. contacts dont open a all. i tried the same pim vol on another universal, and the same problem appears. i simply cant get my contacts back.

what do you think it can be, coz to me it looks like a corrupted PIM.

i was trying to find some kind of PIM editor to get my contacts back, but wth no luck.

is there anything i can do, has any one know the way?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] CWKJ:
Not sure what your problem is.

But AKU3+ onward to Crossbow PIM.VOL is different from AKU2 PIM.VOL in the data format.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] svyatko:
i think the rom he had installed was the original O2 one, so you recon flashing back to aku2 rom will let me see contacts again?

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] traccdma:
Since the biggest battery drain seems to be the QHD screen, I've been wondering if I can buy a 1080P and swap it in.

The most likely donor would be a Moto X 2014, since they use the same AMOLED 5.2" display.

Potential issues:

-video connector: I have not seen teardown videos. Can anyone help me determine if the display ribbon cables/pinouts are the same?

-display/housing: Moto LCDs are tough to separate from digitizers... This may require a new Droid Turbo housing/digitizer, plus a new Moto X 2014 LCD screen)

-android resolution: Does Android auto detect resolution? If not, we might need an unlocked/rooted device to change this in Android.

-capacitive buttons: I think this is built into the software on the Droid Turbo, so they should continue to work without duplicate (onscreen) controls

Cost: could be minimal by reselling my mint condition QHD LCD/digitizer/front housing.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh] Galaxo60:
I think would be easier to look for an app or a way to change the screen resolution instead of changing the whole screen. Many users use the LG G3 with 1080p and get good results with battery (not big increase). One backdraw is that it maybe requiere root, that is currently unavailable as far as I know.

Hello, yesterday i downloaded a big file from the play store.

It downloaded successfully, but couldn't install because of insufficient space.

After awhile i realized that it didn't delete the temporary files, i thought no problem, i'll delete them myself.

I searched on Google and the forums for the location, because i can't seem to find it anywhere.

My phone is giving me warning messages now because of insufficient storage.

Could anyone help me point to the right location?

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Themaniacboy:
I just solved my own problem after searching my phone with a file manager for a few days and the Web to know more about the temporary download location of the Play Store.

Turns out Google already installed the data, but didn't delete it.

Normally if the download is located in a temp directory, it would automatically deleted after phone reboot

This was not the case with my problem, it already installed the data, but not the apk.

For future references, sdcard0\android\obb

This was the location where my incompleted download was stored.

This could also be sdcard0\android\data for other problems.

I hope more people with this problem read this so it can be solved.
