I m currently on lp13xd preview my question is that if i want to revert to kitkat cm11 or if i am on cm11 and want to say some lollipop based custom rom can i do it?i mean do i habe to flash a different bootloader for that?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
To revert to KK you don't need anything: restore a nandroid backup or clean flash a KK rom.

No. Just don't flash old bootloaders and cm 11 will work fine. Only cm 11 Roms require you to update your bootloader.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewis03:
Hey guys

Ive had my nexus 4 for a while now, bought it when it came out a few years ago now. I had managed to keep it perfectly unharmed until i unfortunately dropped it the other day which cracked the screen and seemed to have killed the touchscreen.

The touchscreen now just doesn't work at all.

So my question was, do you reckon i should buy one of those screen repair kits, or something similar and attempt to fix the phone or go for an upgrade and try my luck finding a invite ticket and buying a OnePlus One? Just wondering what your opinions are.

Im stuck now with an iPhone 3gs! Tough times indeed. :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
Replacing the screen assembly is actually relatively easy on the Nexus 4. Note that I said screen assembly, and not the digitizer. If you don't know, the glass "screen" is called the digitizer, which is glued to the LCD behind it. Now, it could be that all that actually needs replacing is the digitizer, but this is not an easy task, requires some specialist equipment, and you're still likely to screw it up. So I highly recommend going with the screen assembly, which is both the LCD and digitizer already ready to go.

You can get a new screen assembly off eBay. There are 2 different ways. One is just the screen assembly. It's cheaper, $45, but it requires that you remove the old one from the bezel, which can be a PITA. The other way is the full front assembly, which means you're getting the screen assembly already glued in to a brand new bezel. $60, a lot less hassle, and your entire front will be new and shiny and ding/scratch free again. Obviously, this is the choice I'd recommend (I've done it myself).

Might as well get a new battery while you're at it, for $20. At this point in its life, you've likely charged your phone several hundreds of times. Li-ion batteries will lose upwards of 20% of their original capacity after ~500 "cycles".

ifixit.com has some great tear-down photos, and there's a number of guides on youtube. It might sound a bit daunting, but it's a lot easier than you might think, at least with this phone.

I can't tell you whether you should just get a new phone or not - I don't know your situation, finances, urges, etc. But I will say that for a mere $80 you will practically have a new Nexus 4. Stick around, learn how to flash custom ROMs and kernels (if you don't already), and you very much will have a new phone. Or a great back-up to your new one.

Ouch.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewis03:
Thanks for the great response! I think im going to revive my Nexus 4! Or at least try to :) It should be fun anyway taking it all apart!

Thanks for all your help!!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
If you need any assistance with dis/reassembly, I'm more than happy to help. I've had my Nexus 4 apart probably a few dozen times. Most important thing is to go slowly. Don't lose screws, and don't lose the tiny rubber gasket that's part off the proximity/ambient light sensor module. If, after reassembly, your screen goes black when making a call (and it's not against your ear), take it apart again and put the rubber gasket in backwards.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrKaupo:
I had same problem. Please not that ebay china sellers are not selling oem displays and there are huge difference in terms of quality. I myself bought original oem LG from Germany, but it costed 100$

When I go to xtrestrolite I can see on the first page, images 4 and 5 that it still have the touchwiz design and color.

I want, when I drag down the notification bar and all the main setting that it look like nexus style.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Use a custom launcher and icon pack to change that ;) I`am using XtreStoLite myself and i can recommend it to anybody, very fluid, fast and lots of usefull features. Or flash a theme from the Apps and Theme thread.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vacdk:
I tried with a Nova launcher. But I can not change the overall touchwiz design.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
You need a Theme or custom rom for that. Why don`t you buy a Nexus device if that is what you want?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vacdk:
Because I like the specs and phone design by Samsung but not happy with the touchwiz design.

I could by a nexus. But very hard to change specs and phone design.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
I think CM11 or any other AOSP/AOKP rom is whats best for you, look in the Unified Development thread and just try out some roms and keep the one you like most.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vacdk:
Dont know what you meen about not doing an affort, ??

I have tryed to install XtreStroLite and others, XtreStroLite, still have the Greenish "control" color and design, installing nova launcher do not change that.!

All im asking if i can make the main design NOT look like touchwiz, do not care about all the samsung apps, i can just hide them..

I do not what it to look like nexus!, i just want to remove the greenish touchwiz design..

CM11 has removed it perfectly, and made it black. But what i what is make it look like google's design greyish. Like nexus?

If i can not ask questing like that in here, then i do not know why the forum is here. :D

So where's the Fleksy keyboard that was highly publicized to release with the Gear S? Can't find it in Samsung App Store...

Some even said it would come with it because of the partnership between Samsung and Fleksy.
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
What keyboard is there now? I have flesky on my Gear 2 I can give you the apk if you want would you have to sideload it because it shows up in my Gear 2 but not on the phone itself but if you want it I could load if up. So much for the pre installed keyboard by default
[Samsung Gear S] ash99:
The fleksy keyboard is pre-built into the OS on the Gear S, and therefore you won't have a download for it.
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
So where is it he has a Gear S and it did not come installed on his
[Samsung Gear S] Tikerz:
It's not. The only keyboard is the Samsung keyboard.
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
Can you find it in Gear manager if not if you check usb debugging on watch and allow 3rd party on phone through gear manager can you sideload it? It is a 3rd party app that Samy promised will be to give you the option to set as default. This is the one from my Gear 2 my Dropbox

https://www.dropbox.com/s/cgwaupa8qomb8kp/Fleksy Messenger_1.3.apk?dl=0
[Samsung Gear S] Tikerz:
No, it's not in Gear Manager. I emailed Fleksy support so we'll see what they say.
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
OK *grabs popcorn I ll wait :)

[Samsung Gear S] apprentice:
I'm not sure why you want Fleksy on the Gear S. It was designed to add message sending on Gear devices that did not have a keyboard.

Your Gear S has a great (and better) keyboard and messaging app. The Fleksy keyboard doesn't support punctuation or numbers (at least it didn't on the original Gear) So what's all the fuss trying to get this on the Gear S?
[Samsung Gear S] Dagaz:
Thanks for the clarification. I was hoping it would have more symbols.
[Samsung Gear S] Uniquebarbee:
Yes HE is right Samsung/Flesky originally had plans to make Flesky a built in keyboard like the Samsung keyboard but they changed their mind for now so it is just a messenger keyboard at this point

I like Samsung but they released this device without much support for apps. We were told we would have Fleksy keyboard and it has not materialized. I bet a second generation Gear S is around the corner though (MWC) or will be announced later this year though... (and I hope they release a next generation Gear S) but part of the problem with Samsung stuff is the lack of apps/support.

They aren't going to remain in the top spot if they don't do a better job supporting the products they create.

not sure if it has swap support, v2 had , but it was awfully laggy after a while
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rzr86:
go to the turbo boost thread and see if your device is supported

Well i did that and i could not locate my device in there, samsung has a huge variaty and i suppose that maybe gt s6312 is supported but is not mentioned.

Also i tried to reply there but since i have less than 10 posts it redirected me here.

I will search a kernel with swap support for my device and i will test it my self then.

Other question : do i have to backup before?

What is the worst that can happen?

Thank you for your time
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AlogarF:
Tried it with stock 4.3 and Fancy Kernel r56 in a Galaxy Nexus, maguro. Tried with different versions of BusyBox but when I put the command "free -m" in the Terminal Emulator it always says "0 0 0" in the swap voice. So I gave up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rzr86:
if your device is not supported somewhere in the turbo boost thread shows how to put the scripts manually AFAIK

also there is a section on how to support your device

you have to pm the devs

but i don't think you will get any answer anymore

maybe init.d folder doesn't execute the scripts properly

did you used init.d universal from play store?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AlogarF:
OK, I did this, now the swap is active, but I don't know how it would work properly. According to the Terminal Emulator the "used" swap was to 4, I tried to open a lot of apps and it went on 7, then 8, then 12. It grows every time I start to open apps to test the multitasking. Now it's 20, is it normal? I thought it would have opened more apps together, but I can't see differences. I chose 150 MB in cache partition.
