[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmso84:
i just bought a galaxy tab s and i wionder can i downgrade the current version that is 4.4.2 kitkat to jellybean 4.1.2. if possible, where can i download the correct rom?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redenfredaesh:
Unable

Sorry pmso but you won't be able to downgrade for 2 reasons, firstly, the firnware/rom doesn't exist for an older version of the OS on the Galaxy tab S, and secondly, and I don't know the reason behind it, but once the 4.4 version is installed onto a device, it locks the device from ever being downgraded to a lower version. I have tried many of times with my old Galaxy S4, but once I was on 4.4 there was no going back.

I'm trying to disable the dock mode when I'm charging the phone via the magnetic port. The screen automatically rotates regardless of the auto-rotate setting, which sucks when I'm trying to read something in portrait mode in bed. I'm on the stock rom and locked bootloader, if that matters. Is there a way to at least lock the rotation when using the magnetic port?

I dropped my phone a month back. The glass broke and needed replacement. Since it initially fell it had this blur and a white hue. I figured it just needed the glass replaced. I was wrong.

I replaced the glass and the problem persisted. After zooming in and out some, this happened.

Can anyone shed some light on how hard, expensive or possible this is to fix?

Thanks,

So I purchased this sweet piece off of Amazon for only 30$ in hopes I could expand upon my limited 32gb internal on my N6. When I plug it in and go to Sandisk's website it definitely says the N6 is compatible yet it doesn't recognize as a USB as it should automatically or at all, any suggestions? Its supposed to be ' plug and play ' but isn't ..

[Nexus 6 Accessories] Pilz:
I have one of those too and you need something like chainfires stick mount for it to pop up. In returning mine because you can't use it while my phone is in a case. I have a smaller one that's works with a case but it's only 16gb

Only if hour ROM has OTG drivers baked in...which it appears the stock ROM does not.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] bradputt:
i just tried on my stock but rooted rom, it does detect my OTG drive.

maybe stock rom does have the drivers baked in???
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Skripka:
It might detect it, but can you do any R/W operations with it? IIRC on my rooted/decrypted 64GB N6 (Hynix memory, Samsung DRAM), stock detected my OTG but refused to R/W to the drive without Stick Mount and its drivers.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] PaisanNYC:
If you don't have or want root, you can use the app Nexus Media Importer to read from an OTG drive (i.e. you only want to watch movies or listen to songs from it).

If you want full R/W, i believe you still need root to do this. I purchased Stickmount Pro, because it has helped me on my Nexus phones and tablets for a few years now.

Good to hear it works I have one of these on my Christmas list! Haha. Already have stick mount and an OTG cable so I was confident it would be fine.

I found the 16GB version at WalMart about 2 months ago, worth checking there if someone wants one right away. It was in with the cell phone stuff and not by the other USB drives. I'm too impatient. Works on my 100% stock HTC One M8 (verizon) using ES file Explorer if that helps anyone.

I've been using this micro-sd adaptor for over a year.......no cable needed. Just plug directly into the phone. I have a 128gb micro-sd card in it. Works great with Stickmount. This is the smallest I have yet to find. Easily keep with me at all times.

If you're running anything up to and including 4.4.2 (10.5.A.0.230), then just use towelroot.

If you're on 4.4.4 (10.5.1.A.0.283 or 10.5.1.A.0.292) then it's slightly more complicated. Follow my guide here.

Questions about the Note 4? I have a T-Mobile variant and the speaker near the front facing camera became loose and is tad uneven. I want to get it exchanged from T-Mobile for a warranty exchange. What's the likelihood they give me a refurbished model? I know the phone has a short supply for the White, but I have the Black model and the phone has been out for less than 2 months with supply issues lingering. Thoughts as well?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pestilencec11:

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Android_Monsters:
Nobody has reported receiving a refurbished unit yet. I'd exchange asap. We're in a window where they don't have any refurbished units.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nviz22:
That's good. I went to T-Mobile today to process it since their new policy requires "stores to examine the product and then you call customer care to process the exchange based on notations." That's after your "one time exchange over the phone." I had the S5 and it was a pain in the butt, so I had to go through several exchanges. How can you tell if the unit is a refurbished model or if it's brand new?

Did anyone else catch this quiet announcement?

"It looks like Microsoft's making it a little bit easier for manufacturers to release updates to Windows Mobile 6. The company is giving free licenses to any vendors who issue upgrades for their devices. Just because the license is free doesn't mean manufacturers won't charge the consumer. Customizing Windows Mobile 6 for each device is still a lot of work."

Hopefully this should stop HTC from saying that the reason they are not planning to offer WM6 upgrades for existing phones is due to "licensing issues". Although, they will probably just come up with some other excuse. 8^(

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopefullyfixed:
I have a Brazilian model xt890 that recently stopped working. The phone hangs on boot-up with the red M logo.

It was randomly restarting and losing the window manager and generally behaving odd so I hoped the issue was an automatic software update.

I installed RSD Lite v6.1.4 and tried to access the stock roms on sbf.droid-developers.org but all the links are down. I would like to reflash the phone with completely stock android.

1) Can I use any rom from this page to flash my phone? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2239706

2) I read that you need to edit the XML file before flashing. Do I simply need to remove the lines with "var" in them?

For my situation (hanging on the red M logo), is the best course of action to simply use RSD lite v6.+ and flash a rom. Nothing more?

I appreciate the help.
[Optimus L3, L5, L7 Themes and Apps] Darmer Aldevaran:
Hi everybody.

These full flashable zips will replace the lockscreen handled. Simple, but looks good. Like these:

Install instructions:

-Save zip to SD card

-Boot into recovery mode

-Install zip

-Reboot

Very easy!!

If you want to revert to original lockscreen handled just install zip whith the name "Original" + the name of the rom.

Tested on:

-CyanogenMod 11 by PecanCM

-CalibanCM 2.5.

-CalibanCM 2.7.

I don't know if works on other devices or roms. If works please tell me.

I can make a flashable zip file with the icon, symbol you like, as long as you provide me the image or example that you want.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ShadNuke:
Hey everyone, I am looking for a little clarification on something. I have a Canadian Rogers i717r. I am running the stock Rogers Jellybean ROM I717RUXMD1_I717RRWCMD1_RWC, with root. Recently, I have been noticing some issues with it hanging, and doing other odd things, so I just think it is time for a reinstall. I may have installed a bad app or something along the way, because it does happen from time to time. My main question is this: How do I do a complete system wipe? Now I am talking every old file, so there are no remnants of the old information left. I have done the factory wipe and dalvik wipe, along with the cache wipe, prior to installing a ROM, every time I have done a new ROM install.. It always seems to leave files behind though. Old game files will still be there and such. Is there a way to get rid of it all, so it is a complete clean slate for the install?

Now, I use TWRP, but the idea is generally the same when it comes to this procedure, and I have found these instructions online;

-- The correct procedure for doing a full wipe is below.

Go to clockworkmod recovery.

Volume up, power button, and home button all pressed together for a couple of seconds.

Go to Advanced menu and wipe the dalvik cache and batt stats if present!

Go to mounts and storage and select it.

Go to format / system and select it.

Scroll down to format system and select yes.

Go to format / data and select it

Scroll down to format data and select yes.

Go to format / cache and select it.

Scroll down to format cache and select yes.

Now go back and install the rom from the internal or external sd card.

This is the correct way of doing a full wipe everything is erased and formatted ready for the new rom, no old system files, old kernel remnants etc....

I am curious as to what will have to be done after the install is complete. I am going to lose ALL of the info. I would basically need to redo all the programming on the phone, including the IMEI and all the info for the networks and what the phone needs to recognize what network it is allowed to access and such. Is this what it will boil down to? I will basically need to reprogram the behind the scenes info also, or no?

Thanks in advance!

Shad
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Aimless Rambler:
First, If you're currently using TWRP I'd suggest updating to the latest version, if you haven't already. There's a few of the newer ROMS which specifically require it. On the question of wiping, before you get too carried away it might help you to backup a few things. Within TWRP (ver 2.8.1.0) you have the options to backup EFS (anywhere you please, Internal storage, internal SDcard or MicroSD card) by clicking on the Storage: bar just above the swipe icon. Your IMEI >> located within EFS folder. Also, search the TWRP website for more specific instructions. What you posted is CW instructions. Hope it helps!

LOOK HERE!! :)

Yes, it's very simple. "Once click" says it all. You'll know you're bricked when the phone never works again. You'll know you're soft bricked when it just shows the red Motorola logo endlessly or repeatedly. You should learn about the "FXZ thingy" before you do anything else. You'll most likely need it sooner or later and as with any knowledge it's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. :thumbup:
