[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BigLisy:
My Bluetooth on my Galaxy Tab S 10.5 has been working a month ago. Haven't used it ever since. Today I tried to turn it on, and it just reverts back to off in 3-4 secs.

Tried clearing Bluetooth cache and data, without success.

Is there anything I can do? What worries me is that it doesn't seem to be a common issue.

Edit: I am rooted, stock rom, haven't done pretty much anything extreme at all.

I read on some sites that doing a soft reset usually fixes this, but the battery on this tablet is not removable, so how can I do it?

Hi all

Some Sony SmartWatch 2 users have reported that they have just received an update to their Smartwatch 2 which has added new features but unfortunately caused custom watchfaces to display incorrect times and fail to display dates. I haven't yet been able to verify these issues but will endeavour to do so later tonight. In the meantime I've reached out to Sony for support on the issue and will keep you updated on the issue.

Please follow my updates on my Facebook page www.facebook.com/JJWwatchfaces for the latest news.

Cheers

So has Sony given an ETA for the fix yet? Nothing new on facebook.

I'm really not happy with Sony after the .157 FW update for the Z1 earlier this month. Had to wait months longer, as I have UK SIM-free, than rest of the world, they got .118 and .133 updates in the mean time. And when the .157 update arrives it introduces more issues than it fixed. And now this.

After they chose to not update SP to 5.0, despite the HW being fine, I was very upset. But having been kicked twice in a single month, I'm not going to be buying any more Sony devices for a while, at least. Very disappointed.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gareee:
Had anyone found documentation on this at all anywhere? It shows the number of active apps, but I also notice it changes colors, from red to orange to green.

Thing is, it can show 5 active apps in green.

I'm wondering if they show in green, should I not shut them down manually? Should I manually shut down ones that show in red? What does orange indicate?

I would think that the Note 4's native multitasking setup would handle when to clear and shut down apps, and clear memory space, but birth my wife and myself find we are constantly watching it, and manually shutting crap down all the time.

If these apps running in the background are bogging our phones down, why would't this be caught and cleared down at the os level?

There had to be some reason why samsung included the widget, but I can't find any documentation on it anywhere.

What you just posted is the same thing as this: http://xdaforums.com/xperia-m2/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-developement-t2971213

Is the phone sim locked? If it is, you need to sim unlock it in order to unlock the bootloader. Debranding just removes bloatware
[Sony Xperia M2] Maff4XHD:
Thanks David I would guess it's sim locked due to me buying from ee cheers
[Sony Xperia M2] LilBlinx:
Dial *#*#7378423#*#* . Then go to -> "Service Info" -> "Configuration". If there is:

Bootloader unlock allowed - No << this means that your Bootloader is Locked and can't be unlocked

Bootloader Unlocked - Yes or root << this means that your bootloader is unlocked

Also If X is on NETWORK and value is different than 0, you can unlock your phone. If it is 0 unlock by code is NOT possible.

Hi, all.

i have a kind especific question here:

how to install two versions of one same application at the same time and keep both versions on a separated data folders?

i like the old version but the new version has some (more) usefull features

the game, named here as "Hello World OLD" and "Hello Word New" have actually the same app name on manifest.xml "HelloWorld"

i've been search for this for few days and finally using APKtool i've those two launchers on my system

but fate is sucks, so both apps uses the same "data folder" /data/data/com.helloworld

what i want to do is just edit it to use /data/data/com.helloworld (to new one, to keep updating from playstore) and /data/data/com.helloworldold (to old one, to keep it update protected and keep saving my OLD-SCHOOL SAVES \o/ )

is it possible?

(sorry for my bad english)

thanks for all and everything

I've a big problem with flashtool. I want to flash a rom (sony official 4.3) with flashtool, but when i plug on my phone it says that: The drivers need to be installed, and i can found it in the drivers folder.

I go there and open the drivers.exe and i don't found Xperia M2 in the list.

Then I install all of them and try to flash the rom but it says the same. Please help me I NEED THE DRIVERS. :crying: :(

(Sorry for my bad english)
[Sony Xperia M2] LilBlinx:
First of all are you using windows 8 or 7? If on 8/8.1 you need to disable driver signature enforcement. Second, there is driverpack provided with the flashtool in separate folder, install them. Install the following drivers: Fastboot, Flashmode and every driver that starts with Common (Common Blue 1.0, Blue 3.0 etc.). Also you can download PC Companion which automatically installs the drivers for your phone.

Hi just wondering out there how many ppl in general with the note edge are getting low 4g or lte signals. Recently just got mine and my signal is real low between 1-2 bars sometime in the city where 4g is strong i still get 1 or 2 bars. If I compare it to my old phone I'm getting full reception and real 4g speed. Not sure if it just my phone or is it a common problem everyone else has. Any feedback wil be good. I am in Australia on the telstra network. My edge is N915G running on baseband ANK4.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nauticalnomad:
Same issue i think

I have the SM-N915S model from Korea and i am in The Netherlands on T Mobile.

My note 3 works on 4G yet when i install same sim card into Note Edge i dont get 4G (Or LTE as its called on phone)

I am wondering if its because the network frequency in Korea is 850/900/1800/2100 and Netherlands is 800/1800/2600??

There is also no option to make it automatically switch between the 2. It only has the option for LTE or 3G.

I am also wanting to know if rooting the phone would enable the access?

Is there a way to root the phone and turn it into the SM-N915Y model for Europe in the hope this will fix the issue?

I am new to this and studying up on rooting phones.

Any help would be appreciated...

Using Media Player or TCMP on the Hermes the video playback always pauses with the circular couloured Icon appearing for a second or two then it dissapears and the playback resumes. It does this every minute or so. It is even worse in full screen mode.

I never had any such problems with the Blue Angel, any ideas why this might be? Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oduivestein:
Hi,

My friend has been using his Galaxy s2 for over quite some time and suddenly it froze during the bootscreen. It has been a clean version without anything warrenty-voiding stuff on it...

He asked me to look it up and i managed to get the phone into Download mode (Recovery mode wasn't working)

First time i tried to flash everyting over again on my Windows with Odin without using PIT files, after that i went into Ubuntu and still no luck..

At last i went back to Odin, flashing with PITfiles. When i tried this my PC froze and after a few hours i decided to reboot my phone. When i tried to get it back into download mode i just got a blank screen. no Download mode, no Recovery mode and so on. Even when i plug my phone into the wallcharger nothing happens.

Is there anything i still can try to get his phone up and running again?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saber:
Did you tick repartition phone when you were flashing the pit files? Are you trying to use stock rom or custom rom? Stock rom requires the system size to be at defaults so make sure to flash a stock size pit. Otherwise, make sure you factory reset and wipe cache partition if you are trying to flash custom rom.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oduivestein:
It was a stock rom i used with the stock pit.

The problem is i couldn't (and still cant) get into recovery mode. I could (not anymore) get into Download mode.

Do you have other thoughts?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Saber:
Have you tried a USB jig? See if your phone reacts too it. Since you can't get to download mode, you hard bricked your phone (assume your chsrging port is still ok). Were you running ics or JB?

It was running on ICS, I will try the USB jig ASAP and i will get back to ya!

Trying an USB jig didnt put the phone into download mode. I bought one online and also tested it on my phone. It did work on mine but doesnt on the bricked S2. Is there also something else I can try now?

After flashing a GPE ROM on a non-GPE device, I get these results: http://webmup.com/naZUn/vid.webm

Basically it is a weird horizontal transparent line that moves down the screen... After flashing the 4.4 GPE ROM got those symptoms -- But even after going into TWRP recovery, the line is still there!

Also, once I decided to revert to stock to try and fix it, there is still this annoying line after booting!! This includes stock ROM, CM, and TWRP ( But once booted, locking and unlocking will fix it temporarily)

I don't think its a hardware problem because the fastboot screen does not face the issue :\

Please can anyone give me some guidance? Im really desparate. :(
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
The cause of this phenomenon is the Bootloader (BL) included with Lollipop. Your current BL is 41.18, the KitKat version is 41.13. There is no way to return to the KitKat BL, and I suggest you avoid trying. The issue will disappear when using a Lollipop ROM and Kernel.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
The issue is kernel-related and I expect can be resolved with a custom Lollipop Kernel. Current CM12 ROMs need to take into account the new bootloader - then the problem will be fixed.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marcoms:
Thanks for the explanation!

Shouldn't CM 12 already be using a lollipop kernel though? What sort of changes to the kernel are required to fix the issue?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
Yes, but as you have observed; CM12's current Kernels (or any KitKat Kernel) are not fully compatible with the new Lollipop Bootloader (v41.18). The display problem does not occur with Stock Motorola Lollipop Kernels.

Perhaps [MENTION=4403780]TeamMex[/MENTION] can suggest what changes are needed.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeamMex:

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
Apparently disabling 'HW overlays' makes no difference. I guess the only way to remove this effect is to use a Kernel that is fully compatible with the 41.18 Bootloader included with Stock Lollipop. As suggested above, we have to wait for Motorola to release Lollipop Kernel sources before DEVs can figure out a solution.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
Nothing will change until custom kernels for stock are available. Maybe then a kernel DEV can find a work around. Motorola have not yet released any kernel sources for Lollipop - which they legally have to.

What do you have on your phone that you are worried about deleting? If it's contacts that should be saved with your google account. If it's pictures, you should keep dropbox installed so it always backs up your pictures. Now here's how to save your phone. Factory reset it. That's your only option.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] roboshawn:
You ask

I originally stated

So yes, I understand the problem and what I could have done, but harping on that doesn't help me recover the photos.

But enough of that - it is done. So what next?

I tried the physical keyboard connected and it had no difference. I even reset the lock with Android Device Manager in the web browser and then disconnected that keyboard from the computer and used it on my phone. No luck.

The fact that this phone does not properly work with Android Device Manager is infuriating because it really should! And what's happened to me really shouldn't be a problem.

So yes - the next option appears to be to reset to factory. BUT. It still seems like there may be a way to save these photos with a recovery software if I am able to root the phone immediately following the reset. If it doesn't work then I'll just have lost those photos.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] i7vSa7vi7y:
Well looks like the only thing you can do is not repeat the same mistake. Factory reset your phone set it up and get dropbox or google drive also root your phone and have usb debugging.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] roboshawn:
Ok. This is how it went.

I reset to factory defaults.

I enabled USB Debugging.

I rooted my phone using the guide over here How to root i545vrufnk1.

I tried various recovery photo/file programs such as Myjad, Yodot, Tenorshare, etc. These programs advertise that they can restore photos after a factory reset. None of them found my old photos. I didn't pay for any of these - I was just using their trial versions. If anyone has used one of these or something like it and had it succeed after a factory reset - please let me know.

I set up Google+ backup.

Next step I'll probably take as additional precaution is to setup the Samsung account service.

To reiterate - this is utterly frustrating that the Android Device Manager remote lock solution does not work for these phones - it goes so far as to tease you with the functionality, but essentially permanently lock your phone.

For anyone else looking to solve this problem - you may or may not have success depending on if you have a samsung account or usb debugging already on or a phone that is not exactly an I545, check out these links:
