[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tweetybird50:
Hello,

This is my first time posting here, so please excuse me if I'm posting in the wrong place..

I had an LG Splendor (US730), android version 4.0.4, which I believe is ice cream sandwich. I had this through US Cellular, but after moving on to Verizon and getting an HTC, I gave this phone to my granddaughter. She uses it on WiFi to play games and stuff, there is no cell service connected to it. She is running into the problem now of not being able download games, etc. that she wants because the android version is too old.

I asked LG if there was an update from them that could get this phone to hopefully kitkat so it would be usable for at least awhile longer and they said no, it can only go to ice cream sandwich. She is only 11, my son and I don't want her to have a "real" phone yet.

So, I have been researching rooting and I think if I could figure this out, I probably could do it. I am fairly computer savvy, but not phone savvy. Everywhere I read, leads me to a download in the forums here from Bin4ry, but this specific phone is not listed in the compatible devices for this. I have read in other forums of a few people who tried it and it didn't work, so I am asking you experts here, is there somewhere I can find a way to root this phone so that we can upgrade the android version?

I am somewhat confused as to all the lingo involved in rooting, I understand the basic theory, but roms, etc. , I still haven't quite figured that stuff out. But if I did know I could fix this phone, I can learn it, I just want to be able to do it right. The last thing in the world I want to do is end up ruining her phone because she loves it.

I have hit a couple websites with step by step instructions for this rooting this exact phone, but I don't even know if I can trust random website instructions. So, because you guys seem to be the "go to" place for help I am asking here for help.

Thanks in advance, any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coilfan:
I have used my D855 for 2 weeks now, mainly on a stock LG 20d/e ROM. When I listen to music without touching the phone everything works fine. But when I use the phone - web browsing, apps, etc. - the music stutters every few minutes. It's really annoying. I thought it was bad with my Galaxy S4, but with my G3 it's even worse. Am I the only one?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crixley:
Are you using poweramp? If so go into settings> audio> advanced tweaks and increase buffer size and audio priority
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coilfan:
Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not using PowerAmp, but Dsub, a client for Subsonic. However, it doesn't depend on the app I'm playing the music with. It is as if the device is too busy with regular OS jobs, or something.

Edit: I will check the PowerAmp setting and see if it makes a difference.

I have seen a lot of posts with "help default Android icon with SD Card" but not a lot of answers so here is my attempt to explain and solve this dilemma.

this icon has appear when I moved apps to my SD card and sometimes this happen with apps not on the SD card.

How this happens: the place where the app icon is stored is not mounted until the OS has booted so Android uses the stock icon.

I was screwing around installing all kinds of apps to see if anything worked and finally found an app that worked it is called

"Fast Reboot" by Great Bytes Software on the play store.

what it does: "Simulates a reboot by closing/restarting all core and user processes and thus frees up memory" ie your icons are "refreshed"

After I reboot my phone or tablet I open this app and bam my icons are back

As always you should support products that work.

Hi. I am kind of a noob to cooking custom roms. I have customized the stock rom for my device with launchers and apks but I want to change the recents menu (multitasking menu). How am I supposed to do that?

I tried decompiling systemUI.apk and framework-res.apk but found nothing regarding recents menu.

PLEASE HELP.

I just replaced the display on my cingular 8525 and now when I boot I get a white screen. The blue light flashes like it has signal, but no display except for a white screen. If anyone could tell me how to fix it, I would sure appreciate it. Sorry for being off subject, but I didn't know where else to go. I figured that you all have been in and out on these phones and might know something about the electronics in them to. Thanks

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] And_you_are:
Ive owned the Nexus 4 for about two years now and have enjoyed it as my first smartphone experience. The new android OSs have generally had good improvements. However I am displeased with lolipop.

I use my phone for work and liked keeping my exchange email separate from my gmail accounts. Now that gmail manages all of them i had to find a new email app and get that working, not a huge deal, but a few hours i didn't have. I now use Nine for my work emails.

Second and more importantly, lolipop broke the DS Battery Saver app. The battery life on the Nexus 4 wasn't great to begin with without the DSBS app. But with the app it was greatly improved. The forced sleep feature at specific intervals was great. I didn't need to receive notifications for everything real time. With the lolipop update my phone goes from 100% charged when i get to the office in the morning and hits 50% at lunch time with my phone sitting unused on my desk for 4-5 hours. I dont need the phone telling me i received a work email when outlook does that for me on my laptop. Before on kitkat my phone would lose about 15-20% sitting unused on my desk at work over an 8-10hr day, now it wont even make it that far on a full charge.

So my novice conclusion is to factory reset the phone and install the last version of kitkat, root the phone for DSBS works with 5.0.1, or find a new app that works with the lolipop changes and does what DSBS did pre lolipop.

Ive never rooted a phone or downgraded the OS, I am tech savy on computers but when it comes to phones I just want it to work for my needs without tinkering for hours or days every time a new OS comes around.

What is the best option for my needs? Is there anything I am over looking that might be simpler? If I root now at 5.0.1, do i not receive new updates or need to do something to get new updates every time there is one?

TIA.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mashed_Potatoes:
stay on 4.4.4 then
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calyxim:
Install better battery stats. Find the offending app and greenify it.

For the email issue: install a 3rd party client if you don't like the stock one.

Just like using chrome browser instead of i.e on your windows os. Nothing wrong with 3rd party.

Also don't check your work email from your personal phone. Unless slavery is legal in your country.

Hi,

I was trying to flash cloudy g3, I put in all the files necessary into the phone, went to the recovery and wiped everything including internal memory.

Now I am stuck as I cant transfer anything into my phone.

PC doesn't recognize it, so I can't use adb sideload.

I can get into download mode and recovery

I tried using back to stock method but since the computer doesn't recognize it, there is no way to do that.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illstaygold13:
I have taken the plunge and gotten this awesome slate. I root EVERYTHING ALWAYS. The one thing I am wondering is whether anyone has ran into serious stability issues or loss of functionality with rooting? Also, what ROMS do you recommend as a daily driver?

I appreciate it, I realize I am little late to the game here, but this was the tablet I wanted all along.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
Value is subjective . . . it is worth it to me though . . I root every device that I buy as soon as I can . .

As for stability, I don't believe in root destroying stability . . but rather that instability of rooted devices being a function of what the user has done to the device after root was achieved. The exception to this would be a device already having inherent instabilities that would otherwise be addressed in a future update that a rooted user would avoid for the sake of retaining root. Of course I could argue with someone about this with no way to prove to them just how stable my device is any more than I can disprove their claim that root is the cause of their instabilities . . . . it is what it is . .
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illstaygold13:
Agreed. I love root and making my device work the way I want it to. Thanks for talking me off the ledge.
[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angus454:
For me rooting this tablet opened the doors to functionality the stock rom didn't offer, and allowed me a level of control and privacy that wasn't otherwise available. Stabilty in a ROM often seems to follow how old it is. That is to say, the first release will often have minor bugs that by the 4th or 5th release have been addressed. This isn't always the case, but often times the developer will come right out and tell you what is and isn't working in their notes or changelogs. It's rare that a stock rom is not available, so you can always go back if you are unsatisfied with the performace of a custom rom.
[Moto X Q&A] Hammerdroid:
I started noticing extreme battery drain around the time I began fooling around with the lollipop rom builds that began popping up in the forums last month, so I started trying to look into it. This is what I found: (this isn't a good example because of a short timeframe, but at times it's been up to 30k wakelocks over 6 hours)

I've tried searching Google and of the 2 posts that even come close, I can't make sense of it.

My phone is currently disconnected and has been for some time, so I can't tell if it's searching for service, even though I keep it in airplane mode, with Wi-Fi on only when I need it, turned off background data, even froze the phone app. Still no luck. Same thing when I switched back to cm11.

Is there anyone or there who knows what this is about and what I can do about it?

UPDATE 05/28/15 This works fine without doing the xposed part on Lollipop. No speed issues. It may be totally unnecessary now but I am not going to retry it to see. It may once again become necessary to follow these instructions when we get xposed for lollipop.

There are a number of threads about these two topics, I am going to consolidate my findings here.

First off root works great on the Sprint variant, secondly so does Xposed with S-Health and private mode. You just have to be careful how you set them up. There have been a lot of posts about freezing S-health and Private mode then clearing data but from my experience that is hit or miss. There are four basic steps to getting everything working and it should be done from a factory reinstall of software. The files you will need are in the following threads/links

Chainfire Autoroot - http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/

Chainfire File Link - http://download.chainfire.eu/617/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-tbltespr-tbltespr-smn915p.zip

Xposed - http://xdaforums.com/xposed/xposed-installer-versions-changelog-t2714053

Xsecure - http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/app-xshealth-bypass-secure-storage-t2878708

Teamwin Recovery - http://www.techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/trltespr

Root using Chainfire autoroot for Sprint it will fail just pull the battery and boot to download to install the teamwin recovery (buttons HOME, VOLUME DOWN, AND POWER) boot to recovery then install supersu. Before leaving recovery set the screen timeout off and lower the brightness to 10.

Skip past Google and Samsung setup. You can fill out the first and last name screen (only opportunity to name phone, first boot).

Download and install Xposed (not Wanam) download and install XSecure Health module install Xposed framework reboot

Activate Xsecure Health module reboot

Clear Data for Health Service and S-Health reboot

Run Private mode and set up, run S-Health and setup.

Setup your Google and Samsung accounts

If you do these steps exactly without doing anything else I can promise you will have a rooted Sprint version with Xposed, Shealth, and private mode working. When I say exactly I am serious there are a lot of things that can/will mess you up like

Signing into google or samsung on reboot after installing factory software

Starting private mode before setting up xposed

Shortcutting by doing a factory reset instead of a factory software reinstall

Restoring your data Nandroid backup (Use Titanium etc for a program by program reinstall of apps)

BTW the problem here is a little bit deeper than uninstall xposed everything works. There is a something that is changed in the software with either xposed or wanam that can permanently kill private mode until you do a factory install. At the moment I am doing Nandroids before any change I make in Xposed.

worked like a charm. Thank you very much.
[Sprint Note Edge Android Development] metal666fukhead:
Is it absolutely necessary to install the custom recovery to achieve root? I only ask because I prefer to leave the stock recovery
[Sprint Note Edge Android Development] blackinjun:
Sorry it is because the SU has to be installed outside of the system. There may be a way to then use TWRP or CWM to reinstall the stock recovery but I have not researched that.
[Sprint Note Edge Android Development] HiredGUN.45:
Thanks blackinjun for this, I just got a Sprint variant of the Note Edge. I believe that I'm on NK1, it's been a while since I rooted a device, last one was about 2 years ago on my Galaxy S4. Will try it this weekend.

[MENTION=325643]metal[/MENTION] i now think it may be better to keep the custom recovery. Ive found that when su says it needs an update it asks to reboot ro twrp or cwm to update. I have twrm and it worked flawlessly.
[Sprint Note Edge Android Development] blackinjun:
[MENTION=2417614]Hired[/MENTION] no prob

worked for me as well just like you said..one problem im seeing though..well not sure if it matters..but while makeing my back of stock system,i see in red letters cant mount cace several times,but it completes the back up,and says sussefull..im backing up to my external sd card..i flashed the super user zip first before back up,flashed latest zip,hope this diddnt matter,did you mean to let twrp install it?..or ok to flash the zip?..anyhow,should i worry about the red letters 'cant mount cacge'??...i dont like it when i see any red letters while in recovery,just looks bad to me,like something is wroung...

[Sprint Note Edge Android Development] KDKobes:
Download the zip file not the IMG.tar
[Sprint Note Edge Android Development] DevXen:
Is it possible to do this. If my phone is already rooted?

I randomly found a YouTube video they walked me through rooting my phone before I knew shealth would have not work. This was a couple months ago I guess. So I'd like to get it back. Though doing factory reset isn't something that I'd prefer to do. But if it comes to it.

I'd assume just follow the rest of the steps in your tutorial?
[Sprint Note Edge Android Development] blackinjun:
You didn't unzip it right? Make sure you download the one with the .tar extension
[Sprint Note Edge Android Development] sand1303:
ya thats what i was doing. i downloaded the .tar and unzipped it. flashing it without unzipping it worked fine
[Sprint Note Edge Android Development] Marv916:
this trick will work if your already rooted. Clear your D. Cache and cache and start from the download/install xposed portion of the instructions. This is what I ended up doing and haven't had any issues at all.
