Hold on, can you guys be more specific with this? Are you absolutely sure it doesn't come back on when you PRESS AND HOLD the power button??? Really sorry if I sound like I'm being pedantic, but just from what you've written it sounds like you don't know how to turn on the phone???
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] dutchschultz:
hahahaHAHAHA!!! awesome reply spyder

ok, yeah i was thinking this is an issue of not being able to turn on your phone.

yeah what's going on that was different from before?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] SpyderTracks:
There have been only few moments where you think "Surely not"... I hate those moments, I'm just hoping this isn't one of them! If it is a genuine problem it's pretty serious and needs to be addressed, but if not.... well, I don't think I should say much more :D

Please please please say this is all a big joke. I'm tired, please excuse me.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Words_vs_Pain:
I confirm this behaviour!

And more!

My Qtek freezes... freezes... and then PUFFF. Dead.

I wait some minutes (30 minutes) and I can turn it on again.

I'll send it to qtek.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] SpyderTracks:
Mine has a thing sometimes where there will be a pause between pressing the power button and it coming to life... sometimes if I get impatient and press the power button again it will turn it back off before it's come on.

I don't really get it though. Does it freeze while it's still on, or while it's turned off? If it freezes when on, there's plenty of info about how to prevent freezes (mostly 3rd party apps + reg tweaks).

If it really does freeze when off, then please let us know anything more on the issue that you can.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Words_vs_Pain:
Mine freezes everywhere. Bootscreen, Pin code menu (when u type your pin). It depends.

then pda doesn't turn on.

Many problems.

Just go to the assistance. :\
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] aniel1:
1.Sometimes it freezes while its on. For Instance I had program opened and then whenI tried pressing X to close nothing happened. I had to use the red hardware button to close. Wonder why.

2.I too agree while the phone boots and is searching for network, it takes very long, Meanwhile when the pin enter screen come up, unless the network is fully searched one cannot enter the sim pin code, it has few freezes. or at time the phone signal icon disappears on top bar and again you need to reset the phone.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] SpyderTracks:
Again, I don't have this problem for some reason... I get very few freezes at all.

I think we're getting away from the original point of the post though... and normal freezing is well documented in most OS threads with means to prevent it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Bhameed:
Same here...Confirmed. Tried all button combinations to get the display back (short presses and long ones), but then end up having to do a soft-reboot to finally get the phone to work properly....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Words_vs_Pain:
And then you don't have other problems? Like freezes?

EDIT: I flash the original rom but the problem still here
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] SpyderTracks:
I wonder if this could be a memory leak like someone suggested.... I'm sorry guys, I haven't experienced this problem, and I haven't seen any posts about it until this thread, is there any chance you guys with this issue can keep an eye over your memory status over say a couple of days to see if there's a leek and keep us posted? Once we find out what the problem is it should make a solution easier.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] DrJeckyl:
I experienced this problem as well using a cooked WM5 ROM on my HERM200 the only fix I found was migrating to another ROM. I'm currently using CUSTEL_Cing_v1.3, the battery life sucks but I love WM6, it is so much faster, I'm still tweaking and trying to resolve some other issues but other than that I am quite happy with it.

If you are experiencing the lockup I would suggest moving to another ROM as an option, that worked for me. Although a clean install usually fixes a lot of problems.

bootloop

Hi all,

Unfortunately I ended in a bootloop. I was on 4.4.2 stock with root and knox 0x0. Followed the steps using Mobile Odin PRO (everroot unchecked, rom loaded without BL/CP) and the Aroma installer started. I checked "Rom Base" and "Wipe data" options...installation finished 100% and rebooted. Then the bootloop, I tried removing battery and power on again, same. I then wanted to go in recovery to wipe data again but it loops also when the text "Recovery Booting" is displayed. It can go only in Download Mode. I hope there is a method to not delete everything on internal SD because I've many whatsapp pics on it.

Before flashing with Mobile ODIN, I had the software update icon to install lollipop but I always postponed, could it have affected?

At this point could you please suggest what can I do?

UPDATE: Got it working again after installing BL and CP with Odin PC.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Requiemmg:
Hi,

sorry, not sure about this, so I'll ask before I brick my device:

I upgraded my rooted stock Android 4.4.2 with towelroot, Knox 0x0, now on 5.0 BNL2 since last week thanks to this ROM also with root and 0x0 with Odin Mobile Pro.

Now there are some fixes in 5.0.1 (my smartphone is working like a charm on BNL2 anyway), but if I got this right, Mobile Odin Pro does not yet work on 5.0...!? So, can I just flash BNL7 over BNL2 from PC without any issues? Do I have to wipe again? Will I have to update Modem/CSC/anything else again?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aguarello:
BNL7 is not 5.0.1, is just a newer 5.0 firmware, and in order to keep Knox 0x0, you need to downgrade to 4.4.2 kitkat (wipe needed) and then with Mobile Odin flash the newest version of this awesome DevBase...

Regards. :D

[Firefox OS Q&A] Franzferdinan51:
okay so trying to build from source FFOS for the ZTE Open C and keep getting the same error even tried switching Ubuntu Distro to 14.04.1 from 14.10 tried google and didnt come up with much of anything on the subject short of many people experiance this issue it seems but nobody gets it resolved and if they do they dont post on how they did it

Pulling "trace_util"

cp: cannot stat ‘../../../backup-flame/system/bin/trace_util’: No such file or directory

Failed to pull trace_util. Giving up.

> Build failed! <

above is the error i get any help is appreciated
[Firefox OS Q&A] Franzferdinan51:
Follow up to this ive did a little searching my self and included in the init.target.rc is a NFC area that seems to be the "Root" of the problem but unfortunatly thats all the information ive come across so please anyone that has information how to bypass this error or fix it , i whould be very greatful
[Firefox OS Q&A] Franzferdinan51:
fixxed but still issues

okay so for those of you who ever run into this issue this is how to bypass unforunatly after flashing i still run into errors on ./flash.sh fails to erase userdata but well start from the top and leave that for others since im almost positive that error is due to me not doing something correct

okay so basically its pretty simple go too the link and copy openc.xml at the link below and attached for easy access

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=8429932

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Developer_phone_guide/ZTE_OPEN_C

then follow the directions listed but to keep it simple for those of you whom dont want to look to far

Clean up the B2G directory, removing the unneeded directories:

rm -rf objdir-gecko/ out/ backup-flame/

Now configure Firefox OS with the following command: (Note that the path cannot contain spaces, otherwise it won't work).

./config.sh flame /PATH/TO/openc.xml

You can then build the Gecko component and Flash it to your phone using the following:

./build.sh gecko

./flash.sh gecko

You should now upgrade Gaia as well, so the upgraded version of Gecko works with the version of Gaia on the device:

cd gaia

make reset-gaia

and thats how i fixxed it unfortunatly like i said when i got to ./flash.sh the whole build it fails at user data

but once again pretty sure thats only me if anyone has information on this let me know please

all credit from this goes to mozilla i just decided to post it in an easy location for everyone who runs into this

thank you mozilla developers

So just received my 2nd RMA tablet and it came stock with KitKat. My original tablet, I upgraded to lollipop and rooted right after. I want on lollipop long enough to know if I liked it or not. Just want to get some input from you guys if I should upgrade or just sick to KitKat and root that. Thanks in advance XDA!
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] primetechv2:
Lollipop has been known to make users' lives terrible by freezing and crashing with certain apps until you're lucky enough to diagnose which ones they are.

Heads up notifications are large and obnoxious, and any app that uses them won't stop unless you stop the app entirely.

The photo gallery has been replaced with Google+ because Google hasn't been getting enough people to use it. Seriously, Google+, a social network, is Google's replacement for actually writing a decent gallery app. I can't stress that enough.

Kiss Flash goodbye, if you use it

But seriously, #1 on my list should be enough. You might end up instantly hating your tablet because Lollipop and ART aren't done. That seems like a good reason.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaybenosa:
I'm thinking maybe I should stay on KitKat lol how do I prevent my tablet from updating?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lukeco11:
I updated to Lollipop and only had huge laggyness and holdups. I like it better but the slowdowns basically made the tablet unusable. I tried factory reseting and removing apps people mentioned here but nothing seemed to help. I've downgraded and it is like night and day. Way better. I am waiting for 5.1 and can deal with the OTA notification.

Everybody should check out the new 5.0.1 bug lists that are starting to circulate.

http://www.androidorigin.com/android-5-0-1-lollipop-update-bugs-nexus-7-nexus-9/
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runningnak3d:
Downgraded

Let me count the reasons:

* New notification center BLOWS.

* New app switcher BLOWS. Seriously I don't know WTF Google was thinking here.

* The HUGE notifications that pop up that you can't disable unless you shutdown that app

* Compatibility with ART is horrible. Now I know this will get better (at least I hope so), but for now -- it sucks

* Even though I had identified all the apps that caused laginess and removed them, I still had to reboot my tablet at least once a day, or it would start to lag -- absurd

* Xposed doesn't work and probably won't work for a WHILE. This is a real problem considering how butt ugly Lollipop is.

* The fact that (thanks to the new BS "storage framework") you have to go effing around just to get somewhat normal SD card access back.

* Battery life is just screwed

Just one or two of those issues would have been enough for me to ditch that crap OS, but seriously, all of this? Again, I know there are hacks and workarounds for some of that list, but not everything.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaybenosa:
Wow those are definitely reasons why I'm gonna stick with kit Kat for now. Thanks for all of your input!!!
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaybenosa:
So I was about to clear the ota notification again and realized it was an update to KitKat. I think it was 1.2.1? Something along those lines. It said it was supposed to help with 5ghz WiFi. Should I already update to that? If I do update typo that, will it some how download lollipop and install it?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AZKJS:
I finally broke myself off some nvidia goodness this weekend. Needless to say right out of the box it had ota updates. I took it all the way to lollipop and am glad to say I can downgrade! While downloading the updates I obviously was messing with the tablet,

games etc. This thing cooks my last tablet. Then I got to lollipop. What a mess! My nexus 5 runs lollipop with out stumbling but it turned this shield into a clunky dinosaur.

Lock screen kept freezing, apps force closing, play store not allowing me do download apps bigger than 100mb without error 905....

Unlocked the boot loader and took it back to KitKat and I won't be looking back!

Thank god nvidia had the stock firmware available! I'll be saving that!
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linuxct:
I am right now thinking to do that. Lollipop doesn't include that goodness I expected, maybe with 5.1 it get's better, maybe not.

I think what I'm going to do is wait for 5.1 ota, if all goes ok, then I keep it. If not, I'll come back to kitkat via fastboot.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diji1:
Heh - I had the same issues but with *MM* when I did a OTA on a 100% unmodified tablet (thanks Nvidia, not your finest hour).

But I reverted to KK v5.1.1 stock and I have zero issues after I have done no modifications: no lag, great battery, everything works although I haven't used a new controller yet. I'm not certain but my controller *may* have been screwed up by doing the Nvidia OTA, the seemed to coincide :(

As usual with Android (at least in my experience) 1 major release behind is the sweetspot between security/performance and "things working" like favourite apps or modifications.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bull1295:
I have a nVidia Shield that I upgraded to 5.0 'Lollipop' and it's not rooted. When I plug in my PS3 controller via USB it works flawlessly - every button works perfectly without using any sort of joystick application (apk). So anyone that wants to use their PS3 controller on the nVidia Shield just plug it in and you're golden.

The issue is when I unplug it I can't get it to work. The tablet won't see the PS3 controller at all until I used the SixaxisPairTool (SixaxisPairToolSetup-0.3.0) to pair it. Now when I turn bluetooth on the tablet sees it, but it's asking for the PAIR PIN which isn't the default 0000 or 1234. Does anyone know how to find the PIN so I can pair it or another way to go about doing this?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clselfridge:
I think the tablet has to be rooted in order for the sixaxispairtool to really function correctly. I am also running unrooted. And decided to just get a $20 nyko play pad pro. Can't bring myself to spend $60 on a controller I'm not sure I will use that often.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bull1295:
I've read reports that the Sixaxis Controller APK (root required) program doesn't work on Lollipop. I won't root my tablet nor have I even found a method to root an already updated version (the only method I found to root the nVidia Shield w/Lollipop is to unlock the boot loader before upgrading to Lollipop). As far as I know the SixaxisPairTool by itself simply pairs the controller with the tablet so the tablet can communicate with it - which it does, but requires the PIN to function correctly. Someone must know how to figure out the PIN required.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigcletus:
Sixaxis works fine on lollipop. The screenshots of it in the google play store are lollipop. Yes you need root to use it. I used my pc to pair the controller with the shield then run the app to connect to it wirelessly.

Also you can root lollipop after upgrading but have to unlock to do so.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bull1295:
Well, I read reports that Lollipop breaks the Sixaxis Controller app (unless it's been updated) and the rooting guides on this forum say you have to already have unlocked the boot loader before upgrading to Lollipop to root it. It really doesn't matter because I'm not going to void the warranty, but I really wish I knew how to find the PIN for the sixaxis controller. My searches also find people that would like to know how to find the bluetooth pairing PIN too.
