[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanglifemike:
I loved having the half circle on the edge of the screen to open multi-window. I'd rather not hold the back button every time I wanna see my multi-window apps. For those who don't know, you held down the back button for this half circle to be visible, you could move to either side of the screen, and up and down the edge of the screen.

I expected Xposed or Wanam to have a module that offered this, but have yet to see anything available. Thanks for looking.

I rooted / S-off and installed a custom ROM from day 1 with this phone (Verizon HTC One M8).

I have been using the phone for awhile and haven't flashed anything. Today, i started looking into upgrading to a new ROM and realized that I needed to update my firmware before hand. I used this to get back to stock with the new firmware - (http://xdaforums.com/verizon-htc-one-m8/development/ruu-m8vzw-4-4-4-s-off-onlynewest-t2914914). I used the SD card and Hboot loaded the RUU from the 0P6BIMG.zip.

I am currently running this official software with s-off and root. I installed TWRP with flashify. I booted in to TWRP recovery and attempted a backup and it failed. I attempted to flash a new ROM (i verified the MD5) and it also failed. After some reading it seem as if the stock HTC kernel has write protection turned off preventing TWRP from accessing these files.

I think i will be fine if i get another ROM installed....The new ROM will have a kernel with write access. I would even be happy with replacing the kernel on the official ROM (therefore enabling write access).

I don't know, I'm stuck. Please help!!!

-Kesnik
[XDA Assist] It_ler:
Yes, seems that you might be right.

Maybe flashing a cusom kernel will be enough to gain read/write access in TWRP recovery.

But first:

Are you on the latest TWRP version? (Check in the Verizon One (M8) Original Android Development > [RECOVERY][m8wlv] TWRP 2.8.3.0 touch recovery [2014-12-22] thread.) There was an update yesterday to v2.8.3.0.

The new version has updated support for latest SuperSu app. Check that you are on the latest SuperSU app (viw Play store) too.

If both versions (TWRP and SuperSU) are up-to-date and you still have the access issue, then you should try to flash a custom kernel.

Check this for available kernels: Verizon HTC One (M8) > Kernel.

And here is a discussion thread about ROMs and kernels for your device: Verizon One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > ROM's and kernel suggestions.

In case that you still have questions or need detailed help, please ask in the Verizon One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.

[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jdsingle76:
Nothing fancy, just the Boost/VM variant of 4.4.4 Kit Kat tar, captured from Kies.

NOTE: For those Boost/VM users who flashed the Sprint version, this SHOULD flash successfully over the Sprint version's bootloader.

- This will (should) not wipe your data.

- As with everything, you are responsible for what you do to your device.

Download Link

Instructions:

1. Download file to your PC(somewhere you can find it!)

2. Put your phone into Download/Odin mode

3. Start Odin(I suggest the latest, but I used 3.07)

4. Click on PDA, find tar file, click it to put it into PDA slot

5. Click Start

6. Takes a good 15 minutes, so sit back and chill. It will reboot on it's own, and you now have Kit Kat 4.4.4.

Oh, and because I know someone will ask, YES, this does have the Knox bootloader on it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] loonytoon500:
I'm on a verizon SCH-I535 running android 4.1.2 (baseband I535VRBMF1, kernel 3.0.31-1152558, build jzo54k.i535vrbmf1, hardware version i535.10). I rooted the device a couple years ago, and have rejected OTA updates, ever since I received the 4.1.2 one (in fact, I used a file manager, to rename some files, so I wouldnt get the pop-up telling me there was an OTA update anymore). Everything is, as it was required to be, in order to get root access on 4.1.2, I just followed the instructions I found on xda.

Now that android 4.4.2 is available, and there is an easy root for it, what is the easiest way for me to move from where I am to 4.4.2 rooted? Am I supposed to follow the instructions in the "Reset your phone in order to return to Verizon" sticky? If so, how do I know if my bootloader is 'locked' or 'unlocked'? Alternatively to these instructions I was thinking of doing a "full unroot" with superSU then simply doing an OTA update, but wasnt sure if that would introduce issues.

Finally, in terms of doing a backup, I downloaded an app called "online nandroid" which supposedly saved a backup to my sd card. But my sd card is tiny, and the backup went really quick, so what exactly is it backing up? Is it enough of a backup that if I want to do a full restore back to exactly the state my phone is in now later, I can do that, or do I need a different tool for that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
In order to move to the 4.4.2 update you'll have to unroot, but keep in mind if you do your bootloader will be PERMANENTLY locked, no going back

The backup of stock is normally somewhere between 2-3gb or more, it didn't do the full backup. I highly doubt it's a full backup. Once you take the OTA to 4.4.2 your stuck and there is no going back

Your best bet is to install a custom recovery, cwm, twrp or philz or similar. If you want to take the OTA your free to but once again there's no custom roms after that. No CM or AOSP after you take the OTA

From my S3 running BlissStalk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] loonytoon500:
Thank you for your response.

I do not care about custom ROMS, I am ok with the stock android OS, as long as I can get root. If the OTA update permanently locks my bootloader I am ok with that.

That said, I want to ensure I dont have any incidents when I do the OTA update. (that I dont brick my device. or make things more difficult for myself.) It doesnt look like I currently have a custom recovery (I tried to boot into custom recovery but the phone simply boots normally. I can however boot into stock android recovery). Also, my bootloader is currently unlocked.

Given that I dont currently have a custom recovery, and that my bootloader is currently unlocked, will that present any issue if I simply do a full unroot using superSU, and then take the OTA update? I used triangle away earlier today to reset my flash counter to 0 (it was 1 before).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
It shouldn't but the OTA will lock in back up

From my S3 running BlissStalk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] loonytoon500:
Ok, i unrooted, and tried to take the OTA update, but a quarter of the way through the update, the update fails/stops, and it shows a lying android, with a red exclamation triangle over it; then the phone simply reboots and says "sorry, there was a problem updating your SAMSUNG SCH-I535. No changes were made." I read something about how this could be the case if I froze some stock apps, but how do I check if any stock apps are frozen? I dont remember doing so but its certainly possible.

What course of action do you recommend? It sounds like I will need to go through the process of rerooting again. I've read I can reflash the 4.1.2 stock rom and then do the OTA update, but I dont want to wipe data. The no wipe version is linked to here, but the firmware links there appears to be broken.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
After all the reading I've done in order to take the OTA you have to unroot. I don't know the complete process as I am not on any OTA

From my S3 running BlissStalk
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] highspeedfelon:
Even if you dont care about custom ROMs right now you may in the future when there are no updates released for the phone or you want to sell it and could have gotten a higher price with the lower system version. Before you update try some of the ROMs out and see if there are some you like and if you dont like any then update.

That being said I have updated using ODIN and the firmware I got from this site. look around and you will find the stuff you need.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] loonytoon500:
i ended up flashing a 4.1.1 stock no wipe rom i found and after that i could take the ota updates (had to do multiple in a row).

out of curiosity couldn't the devs find a way to unlock the bootloader via some hackery in the future?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Sure it's possible, but unlikely. To put into perspective, I don't believe there has been a bootloader unlock for Verizon Notes 2-4 and Galaxy S4-5 (which would allow one to natively run AOSP without Safestrap) so the likelihood is low.

Oh! forgot to mention this: Music player on the go!

I use the music player with connected Bluetooth headphones all the time. The Gear 2 has 4GB of storage so lots of room for plenty of music when I work out. I retired my iPod shuffle once I got the bluetooth headphones (Beats). That note 3 is just too big when I'm out jogging or at the gym.

I do this 2-3 times a week and having the music player secured on my wrist, where it can't fall off, and no wires to get caught up in, is much better at the gym. SO MUCH BETTER!
[Samsung Gear 2] leojab:
Have to agree.. I also love my Gear 2. Currently the best available iteration of smart watch rather than the recent set of Android wear smart watches without speaker or IR.

The speaker feature is great when you are alone driving in the car. Even playing the songs from gear 2 in low volume while sleeping really works for me. Hope it had a sleep timer thought ;)
[Samsung Gear 2] raiu:
I have to say, i miss my gear 2. I went and traded mine for the gear s and there are days where I really wish I still had the gear 2.

Then I remember:

Every recent up date to gear manager I had to reset the watch.

Every time I really needed the camera to work

(Taking a pic of our parking spot at WDW, couldn't even do that because it was stuck in macro mode)

Drop the watch from my wrist taking it off and boom it quit working (This happened to 2 watches)

The gear s has not had any of these problems.
[Samsung Gear 2] Att.Fan1982:
I definitely will keep my gear 2 once I upgrade to the gear s just for the camera alone. Only smart watch avaliable with a camera! Awesome sauce!
[Samsung Gear 2] obsydian:
Started on the Neo, then tried various Android Wear watches, was waiting for a deal on the Gear S but then got a deal on the Gear 2 do happy, excellent battery life, looks super cool, love the call and camera functions.

For me it is the right balance of apps and notifications. I feel others try to almost make your mobile redundant with apps.

I find with the Gear 2 I barely take my phone out of my pocket. For me only annoying bits are S Voice is too limited and would be perfect with some WhatsApp quick reply function.
[Samsung Gear 2] ThE_SoUrCe:
I love my Gear 2 and even with the Gear S available, I'll still stick with gear 2, unless they make a gear S 2 with a camera LOL

Pro's - well, almost everything has been said by the OP so let's keep it that way

Usage:

Fleksy Messenger - no need to pull up my huge slate Tab S 8.4 to read/reply to messages

Music App - paired up with Gear Circle, I could be on the go with music.

Gear alarm (app store) - does what it says. vibrates and does not wake up the one sleeping beside you lol

Stay awake( app store) - useful when driving during the night, you need to make weird circular gestures to turn off the alarm, keeps you awake

Instant Setting (appstore) - toggles phone state mobile data, wifi, bluetooth, silent/vibrate etc.

launch gear (app store) - toggles apps before pulling out my slate, use? so that everything is loaded even before I open the tablet

although the gear 2 with it's tizen OS lacks app count, it is usable enough on a day to day basis,

turning off the wake up gesture will save the battery bigtime, last me 5 days in one charge only using it to respond to sms and to check time.

overall, a $200 investment is worth it especially to those who wield device like me
[Samsung Gear 2] pglandscapes:
Enjoying mine to the max

after having the original Gear, and installing the Tizen update, I really thought that I wouldn't need a Gear 2.

Discovering one barely used on eBay for a bargain price in the UK, swayed me enough to take the plunge...and I'm so glad I did!

The Gear S took my fancy, but I was amazed at how much I had come to rely on the camera for quick pics and video. The fact that these appear on my phone, then, through dropbox, appear everywhere, means iMovie on my iPad mini is a doddle!

That is 'my' usage case anyway. I use the stock fitness apps a lot and with the heart rate monitor, which can be accurate enough, I find this little gem of a watch becoming more and more useful.

The IR blaster for the tv is cool, the odd occasion when your hands are full and your phone rings (yes, a well placed 'swipe' with your nose will answer that important call on your wrist, and I'm actually enjoying using S Voice(although its gone bloody quiet again) for its message replies, appointment creation and task/memo reminders has made me realise that this really is a neat little package!

Looking through the app store, I'm seeing a few good apps come through, like Gear Navigator, S Alarm, BeatObox, Notepadd ++ and Notifications Wear style(alought this last one is still a WIP), there seems to be people willing to invest time in this device.

Now it is true that I am intrigued by the Apple watch (I am platform agnostic, owning both iOS and Android), but I know for a fact that if CES 2015 brings a Gear 3 with upgraded features, or the hint of a Gear S2 with a camera.....I'd stick with Android!

The only thing to date that has kept me from jumping on the Android Wear platform is the lack of sound/feedback/ no external speaker!

Well thats my thoughts on the watch....anyone else?

actually...thats not all...Has anyone else lost Fleksy messenger etc since upgrading Gear manager....they just dont seem to exist any more on the app store???
[Samsung Gear 2] realista87:
Zeuserx i REALLY APPRECIATED your post!!!

i am in a difficult moment. i own gear 1 but i NEVER modded it...... and BLOCKED the tizen update because i don't want tizen.

in my future i would find the time and skills to put a custom rom... why? just 2 things..... to use a record video with unlimited time...especially using a SPY app like SecretVideoRecorder that record/take picture while SCREEN IS OFF!!!

but............... i recently found a used gear2 and:

1) i prefer that do have CHANGEABLE bands, because what if i RUIN my gear 1 band? i noticed replacement parts are not so cheap.

2) it's more compact, but i have to ask you if the SPEAKER PERFORMANCE is the same of the gear 1. i ask it because i think gear 2 uses less space and SMALLER HOLE to thespeaker compared to gear 1

3) i REALLY.....(and really!) like the IR blaster feature!! i'm a native PRANKSTER.... i like jokes.... and i would use the ir blaster lots of time :p and ok, sometimes just to really use it at my home.

but really.....................i could buy the gear2 only for THIS FEATURE!!!!!

but..... i find just 1 cons:

does not have a ROM with full android. just like nullrom. is it a big problem? i don't understand if with tizen i CAN INSTALL my preferite app/apk ( secretvideorecorder for example......) or not.

if i CAN install secretvideorecorder..... i'm in!
[Samsung Gear 2] Zeuserx:
Speaker is fine. I can have a decent conversation on the phone in most enviornments except those which are just REALLY too loud, like a bar.

IR blaster is not only fun but also useful. As in my post: if you don't like what's on TV at a bar, just a few presses and you'll have total control of the TV. and since it's on your wrist, it's pretty stealth. Not to mention that the average joe just doesn't know that you can change TV channels with a watch. hehehe. I use it at home too. "Time to go to bed!", I just swipe 3 times, click the remote app, click power. "Awwww!!!!!" . "I said: bed time !"

I use the camera all the time when shopping. I take snaps of items to research, barcodes etc. Sometimes even videos. And I do this even when my phone is nowhere nearby. YOU CAN'T DO THIS WITH AN APPLE WATCH!
