[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackbox421:
Oh I see..thats annoying. But thank you for your answers! I guess I'll read those threads. =)

Btw.. Can you guys tell me if I understood everything..:

To go back to the official 4.4.4., I don't have to root my device, right? I "only" have to unlock my bootloader and flash the official factory image through fastboot. And afterwards I could root my device using the guides around here on xda.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
That's correct! :D
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackbox421:
Oh, actually thats all I wanted! =)

On my old Samsung Galaxy Ace you had to root your device first, before you even could install another stock rom, thats why I thought it would be the same for the Nexus 5.

Thanks alot, I'll save my data on my PC now and start with the "downgrading"! :D
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
It's all very easy with a Nexus device :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackbox421:
Yeah I think I got it now. I unlocked my bootloader and flashed the official 4.4.4. factory image from the google developers website. Afterwards I booted into the stock recovery and wiped data/factory reset and reboot. Everything is fine now!

Thank you for your help! Learned a lot of basic understandings. :D
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
There are multiple methods. Cf auto root is just one of them.

I documented all methods in general. There's a link to my thread from "sticky roll-up in general
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackbox421:
Huh, I thought the methods from your thread would be only for KitKat :o
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
I usualy root my Nexus by booting into a custom recovery (TWRP), flash the latest superSU.zip and any mod i want and reboot/done ;) That way i keep my stock recovery.

Is it possible to root a verzion lg g3 vs98511c running 4.4.2? Ive tried purpledrake-lite but my phone will not let me change the usb mode to internet/ethernet. The option is not even avaliable. Thank you in advance
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TonikJDK:
You need to flash back to 10b. Not hard at all. Hit the Verizon g3 forms here. It's all there.

question: if microsoft is gearing windows mobile and pocket pc to be direct competition to blackberry in the category of business device(s), why then did they choose to discontinue money pocket pc support? what sense does that make? is there a microsoft financial software solution for the pocket pc? do they plan on putting out something?

it just seems like a backwards move for microsoft
[General Topics] newbie2:
I agree with you on this one. The last version of Money that Microsoft supported with their Pocket PC version was Money 2005 -- which is NOT supported on WM5. Go figure!!

I used Money 2002 along with the ppc client on my Dell Axim and it worked perfectly. Now, I have to depend on Spb Finance to do the same thing and sync with Money 2005.

I'm not real sure M$ had their thinking caps on with this one. Oh, Wait!! We're talking about Micro$oft here. . . :(

Hi, i have a galaxy s4 i9505, running cm12 android 5.0 lollipop, but dont take photos in raw. Can this improved in this rom?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Husam2011:
I'm not sure if this problem was there when i got the phone or not, but i notice it a lot now since i take pictures of my assignments etc.

Anybody else have this problem? The Camera doesn't focus on close objects such as letters on a notepad while i didn't have this problem on my S4.

I've tried different roms and same thing.

Guess i can't return it for warranty since it is rooted.

Also, my battery cover snapped :(

[General Questions and Answers] binhafidz:
Hello everyone.. How can i delete a pre-installed application in my phone?
[General Questions and Answers] zelendel:
You will have to root your device and remove them from the system partition
[General Questions and Answers] Mr.WoW:
Do u know how to root ?

or you are a total noob *.*
[General Questions and Answers] Fenix46:
And then something long and complicated although the explanation may seem simple.

You have to unlock the bootloader. (if you do not know what it is, look on google)

You must obtain permissions Root (if not even know this always tries)

After installing the play archives Store manager who is able to get into the system folder of your smartphone (with root permission of course)

and so you can start to clean up everything.

NB: if you look carefully you will find here on XDA some guide that will explain what you need to do well. you just try ;)
[General Questions and Answers] binhafidz:
Thank you

Sorry.. i am just a beginner and trying to learn more.. and likewise i just want to make clear on how to do it.. i guess asking a query is not bad..
[General Questions and Answers] amitpartial:
At first root your device if already done skip it download titanium backup app from Google play store after installation open it and del. The apps what ever you want .don't remove important system app other wise your system may brick.

For safety you can use clean master app. This app automatically give you details that which app you can remove withot risk and what happened if you remove that app.
[General Questions and Answers] mohinu2:
you need root access and system app uninstaller if you don't have of them then you can try to disable pre-installed app from setting

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MANICX100:
I am running fully stock factory restored lollipop on my N5 unrooted.

I was trying to setup trusted places but it wasn't listed in my security settings; I looked around and was told up update my Google Play Services.

I downloaded the latest apk from apkmirror.com and installed it like any other apk. This broke it.

Every 2 seconds I get a notification that an app requires an update to google play services. Also any location based actions now fail and loads of settings are missing.

Any ideas?

[Sprint LG G3] patrick73csun:
i soft bricked my phone when installing the cyanangen 12 rom, it quit during the setup wizzard. The button combination of down and power release when seeing lg and repressing is not working. PleASE TELL ME i can enter twrp without having to restore my phone to stock. The phone will receive phone calls but that is all it does. otherwise it says setup wizzard quit and endlessly says this when you press ok. please help, despite being in los angeles, i have not found anybody capable of helping me.

Patrick--in so much need...
[Sprint LG G3] scottspa74:
What is the repressing step? I've never heard of that. Isn't it just vol down and power, then release power while still holding vol down until recovery boots?

Also, do you have adb or fastboot installed on a pc? If so, adb reboot recovery from CMD if in android, or fastboot reboot recovery if in bootloader. Have you tried those?
[Sprint LG G3] Barshalen:
You don't have to release the buttons, idk why so many people keep saying this. Should be the same as mine.. With the phone off just hold both power and volume down until you see it say Recovery Mode loading, then release. If that doesn't work then try the adb command while plugged in to your computer.
[Sprint LG G3] Droid2drummer:
Yup. Thats the same thing i was wondering. I had to use it last night. Just hold both. Easy.

How do you get into bootloader if phone is bricked? It sees the phone, but it won't open up and let me look inside? Thank you

A window comes up and says that the kernal cracked.. My phone is having a hard time getting charged, could this be related?

[ONE Accessories] khmerog:
I ordered a couple of them cheap generic "matte hard plastic protective shell case" for like $2 each on Aliexpress. A red and a white one. The white one fitted poorly and made the buttons unusable at times, so I sent it back to the seller at my own cost.

The red one fitted nicely but after a week of having it on I saw that it left red paint on the back of the sandstone black phone cover and because of the sandstone material, it will be hard, even impossible to get the red paint off without damaging the sandstone material. I like these types of shell cases as it doesn't add so much thickness to your phone but this being my first 5.5" phone I fumble it alot and have dropped it twice while outside walking the dog and it chipped the bottom of the phone and would have chipped/scratched the display if I didn't have a screen protector on it. I might get a replacement cover for the phone later down the road if I can find one for under $20 but maybe not since I always have my device in some type of casing so I won't be bothered with the appearance of this incident :cool:.

So, lesson learned and I recommend a full shock protection case if you are like me and are active outdoors. But what you can do is put tape on the inside of the shell case to have a barrier between the case and the phone to prevent the paint of the case coming off onto your phone. I am waiting for delivery of my new case and this will have to do until then. Take a look at my pics.

Lol yeah i sent it back and it costed more than $2 too lol. But the point is for him to refund me the money so he doesn't profit off it but these dishonest bastards will probably resell the same one to someone else. I'm gonna open a dispute in a 2 weeks whether he gets it or not (wink).
[ONE Accessories] LkOpD:
this are the problems if you would like to save to much money 2$ for a good quality of a case is a joke, now you see the result. You can use alcoholic (Isopropanol) to remove the colour.

Luckily it's only seen under specific lights. Will search for that youtube video as well.

[ONE Accessories] khmerog:
Yeah you are right that it is only really noticeable under bright light and in the photo I posted made it look much ugly due to the flash.

I did a eBay search for the original back covers and found they're are ones for $30 and ones for $15.. anyone have knows if the $15 one should be good enough? Both are Sandstone. But I heard taking of the NFC sticker is a delicate procedure.

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sk8DevL411:
Every time I try to edit the apps on my favorites panel I just get an error after a few minutes saying favorite apps panel has stopped. Anyone have an idea on how to fix this?

Thanks
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nhattuong:
Me too every one to teach me how to fix it．now my note edge can not edit panel apps.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nhattuong:
i try any solution but now This unfortunately has stopped messaging when i edit application panel not yet fix it too.

who can fix this messaging to teach me please. Thank very much.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
I'm seeing this too. I was able to remove all the shortcuts except contacts and camera. When I try to remove those, I get the app panel has stopped error.

In trying to troubleshoot, I did a factory reset. With a clean boot, the favorites panel works fine and I was able to remove all the shortcuts. This means that it has to do with possibly one of the following:

1) The number of apps I have installed (I have a lot)

2) Xposed and modules

3) Apps I've frozen

4) Another app that is causing a problem

Is your ROM rooted? Any similarities?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nhattuong:
I am ussing ntt docomo carrier one. Rom is offical

I tryed do factory reset them install left than 100 apps it ok. But more than 100 apps it got error has stopped.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Well I guess we got our answer. Hopefully they will fix this limitation soon.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twospirits:
I do not have this issue (I have the Sprint version) even tough I have quite a few apps. The only thing that bugs me is wanting to put an app in the favorite panel that is already in a folder. can't seem to do it unless I take it out of the folder first. But that's for another thread.

TS
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
What is "quite a few"? More than 100 or less (user apps, not system apps)?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twospirits:
148 at last count.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
Well, guess that debunks the >100 app theory. To confirm, are you able to remove *all* of the shortcuts including camera and contacts with no problems?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twospirits:
No, don't want you to get the wrong idea. I read it wrong. (I was reading too many threads at once) I was referring to total number of apps on my device. My bad.

On the Edit favorite app selection screen, there are 84 apps and on the panel itself there are 16. So yeah that 100 limit still stands. And you can only add 20 apps to that panel. Although, if you group them in folders all 100 can go in here.

TS
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
I can now report that >100 apps it not true. I first experienced this problem on my T-Mo Edge with 200+ apps. I just started to setup my Sprint Edge with the same collection of apps. It works just fine. I am able to add/remove any apps with no FC.

For those who have problems, let's try to figure out the commonalities:

1) Have you frozen/disabled any apps? If yes, what?

2) Have you used Autostarts or similar apps to stop apps from being triggered? If yes, what?

3) Do you have Xposed installed?

4) Do you use Wanam or other modules? What others?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snovvman:
I solved my problem. Not directly, but it worked.

I TiBu'ed the data from my Sprint Edge (Favorite Apps panel) and restored it on the T-Mo Edge. Viola, the two apps I couldn't remove are gone and I was able to fully utilize the Favorite Apps panel.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabesg02:
same problem

I'm also experiencing the issue. It won't even let me get to the page for editing either favorites panel. And I only have 84 apps!
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3bs:
Less than 100 apps here too and I can't remove gallery without the force close. All other apps can be removed with no problem.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] colgao:
A way to fix this error is to boot the phone with volume down pressed (safe mode). This way you can enter Favorite Apps Panel to edit (add/remove) some app links (those originally in rom I think).

PD: I would like to know where the current settings of Favorite Apps Panel are stored to make a backup of the file or try to edit it externally.

This app is not developed by me!! All credits go to the original developer

Warning: Rooting your phone may void your warranty! I’m not responsible for any damages. You will do this at your own risk!!

​

A while back I was searching for an easy way to root most phones, and yes I found some pretty easy ways to do so but they were a few apps that could root limited number of phones.

I then found ]this Chinese app. I couldn’t know its name until I translated it using Google Translate. I think it’s called Mgyun Juidu Root

I have used this app to root many phones. It has rooted all China Android phones I have attempted to root… more than 10 phones, on addition to some known phone models from popular brands like HTC Desire, Sony Xperia P, Motorola Droid Razr among others.

I thought I should share the apk with the rest of you guys

Procedure is simple:

Install apk

Enable USB Debugging

Open the app (It should be in your app drawer)

Tap the green button to root

Click Yes to grant SuperUser permission

The process should take a few seconds. The phone will reboot.

Enjoy! :D

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mahmoudthassan:
recently I bought a used m7, the guy told me that it was GPE.there is a locked icon in the booting animation.

but when I rebooted to the fast boot screen i found this

tempored

unlocked -S-off

so did the guy tricked me and sold the m7 SENSE EDITION as GPE ?

And can I install sense

custom

rom over the official gpe rom*OTA WORKS*?

and how can i flash recovery if the device doesn't have recovery installed
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Sense M7 and GPE M7 are the same exact phones with different software and firmware. If the previous owner bought a Sense M7 and converted it to a GPE M7 then there is no real difference between that phone and a "real" GPE except that it might cause warranty issue if the phone is still under it.

The phone is unlocked and s-off, you can flash whatever you want.

fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] synt3k:

I replied in another thread, but I think I'll give it it's post because many people are asking.

Took some crummy pics:

Home -> WIFI connection:

image (1).jpg

Device Network -> Wi-Fi Connected

image (2).jpg

Network Wi-Fi -> {select your active connection} In my case it is Leafs RULE!!_5G

image (3).jpg

Select Advanced options

image (4).jpg

Then select IP settings. In your case it'll say IP settings DNS. In my pic it says IP settings Static.

image (5).jpg

IP settings -> STATIC

image (6).jpg

Go through the IP settings and enter in a static IP, gateway, and DNS settings. Press save and then hope it saves.

You know it saved properly when "IP settings DNS" changes to "IP settings Static". In my case, it didn't pick up the new settings till the next day. Maybe after you save your settings, power cycle NP; go back into settings and see if it changed over to static. As with other things with the NP, try a couple of times.

I didn't change or add anything to my router. My router is still using my ISP DNS IPs.

I would love being able to switch between European and American Netflix, but going through all those steps to change DNS every time is a bit of a hassle :-/
[Nexus Player General] habskilla:
The only step you have to change is the DNS IP. Yes, an app would be nice.
[Nexus Player General] Mardin:
Don't you have to type in all the other stuff too every time? (IP, Gateway, Router IP etc.)

Last time I tried it didn't save any of it.
[Nexus Player General] dongdong:
Think there is a bug, I also did not manage to save dns2. Some said have to wait for 1 day before nexus player reflect the new dns. IMHO, Lolipop is not ready for nexus player.
