[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cschmid44:
sideloading an OTA update from stock recovery

Hello, to make it work you will need to use the Google USB drivers you downloaded when you go into stock recovery then press the power button and volume up once then you will see a menu option with the "install update from adb option select this and plug in your phone to the computer. After this is done you will need to go to device manager and install the USB drivers from the Google USB drivers you downloaded. at this point after that is done you then go into the folder that has ADB installed and use adb sideload filename.zip

at this point your phone will accept the ota update package and you wont lose any data, I hope this helps..

When you get the dead android you need to press vol up and then press and release power. That'll get you into the stock recovery. It's stupid and I don't know why they made it that way
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sane116:
thanks all, can't believe i never knew that volumeup+power got me into stock recovery options.

new issue: sideload works all well and perfect, but how can I bypass the "signature verification failed" flag that kicks me from the zip install every time?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Well you can't. The limitation of the stock recovery is you can only flash files signed by Google. That's why you need a custom recovery to flash most files
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sane116:
So can I just flash twrp with fastboot and go about that method? I believe it can bypass the signature. I am unlocked without root currently.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
If you're trying to flash the update.zip to 5.0.1 you need to do that in the stock recovery. It will not work in twrp or cwm. I'm not sure what you're trying to do right now
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sane116:
my apologies.

so originally i wanted to just flash the OTA. ended up performing a fresh install and un-rooted. but there's a few unsigned zips i like to have installed.

So I think I'm going to re-root, flash twrp, install my zips, and leave it at that. i'll just flash stock recovery whenever I need the OTA which should be quick now that I know what to do.

hope that sounds correct. thanks for all the help!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Sounds like you got it down
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
No its not correct. Far from it . You must be 100% stock for ota. Not just stock recovery, but unrooted, stock kernel and no "unsigned zips".

The easiest and almost only reasonable approach when there is an update for you is to download the latest factory image, fastboot flash system, boot and radio then flash SuperSU via recovery. You'll not easily be reversing your modifications if you're flashing zips, that's for sure.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KLit75:
I probably posted something very similar awhile back but hoping I might get some help. Since buying aftv in June I've had maybe 2 solid weeks of the smooth experience everyone talks about.

Just days after rooting (the day towelroot came out) I experience buggy behavior that compelled me to factory reset. Back then there was no risk of not getting root back. But it only helped for a little while.

Since then I've installed cwm and did 3 resets. The results were short lived.

Here's a list of all the bugs I can think of

1. Exiting xbmc then using Netflix only works about 50% of the time. Netflix will either not open or fail to play videos.

2. Exiting Netflix then launching xbmc almost always results in xbmc either not launching or launching with errors (web server failed, common cache, etc.)

3. (And this is one I've heard NO one report.) Unless aftv is rebooted before using, about 30-50% of the time the sound will cut in and out on ANY videos be it xbmc, Netflix or YouTube. Reboot fixes every time, but this is very annoying given the high frequency it happens. Now I've just got into the habit of rebooting first thing.

4. I'd given up on putting time into customizing xbmc because the best I can hope for is 2 weeks of stability before I need to start over due to it not launching or consistently launching with errors.

5. Because of #4 I decided to use tvmc. It ran great for awhile then refused to launch. A reinstall fixed it then 2 days later it was the same thing. I asked around but tvmc seems to be working well for others.

I'm currently running with a bare bones setup. Only using 21% of my internal space. Malwarebytes shows nothing.

Sorry about the long post. And I know despite the details it's impossible to diagnose what the issue is. What I'm looking for is advice on how to try and figure this out. How do I get a log going for the aftv itself? Where would be the best place to share a log? Which program would you reccomend? Please be as specific as possible. Thanks.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dagmarlena:
Just trying to confirm and make sure this is normal..

I have a Tab S and in the Task Manager screen it says I only have 2.71GB of ram available. I thought these devices have 3gb? Is this normal to have less than the 3gb promised showing?

[IMG="2.71gb ram"]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3051872/Screenshot_2014-12-21-10-45-33.png[/IMG]
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dancress:
Yes. Probably the 1000/1024 MB calculation thingy. They usually either use 1000 MB as one gigabyte or 1024 - whatever looks best. Wouldn't worry, that's completely normal. Just look at any old hard drive you may have - buy a 1 tearybyte (1000 gigabyte) one, get 931 actual gigabytes.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gurubumsmack:
A long time ago I flashed my T-Mobile UK Vario II with the HTC South African 1.35 Full ROM Upgrade package.

Some time has passed and I'd like to flash with the HTC AKU 3.3 ROM or try one of the WM6 cooked ROM's. The only problem is the methods used to flash have changed and after reading the Wiki's and forums, I'm still confused!

Now, because I used the package, the SPL is now version 1.09. From what I've read, this means I cannot upgrade the Radio ROM only. No big problem I thought, but if I flash again with the HTC 2.05 ROM package, I won't be able to upgrade the Radio from version 1.34 to the latest 1.38.00.10. Is this correct?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Sleuth255:
no worries. All radio RUUs nowadays automatically load Des' Sspl which can flash any radio. Simply load 2.05 then go flash radio 1.38.00.10 using pof's link.

To be safe however, you should load Bootloader 1.10.Oli after you finish the 2.05 upgrade but before you flash the radio upgrade. This will guard against a flash failure that corrupts your CID. Tomorrow, I'll build a sspl based Installer that loads Olipro's 1.10.Oli bootloader & post to the WiKi since everybody should have this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] gurubumsmack:
Thanks for clearing that up Sleuth. Its made things a hell of a lot clearer now.:)

Will update to the 2.05 AKU 3.3 ROM + 1.38 Radio and then to WM6 once you lot stop releasing a cooked ROM every couple of days.:D

Many thanks!

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheSlov3nc:
I've had this phone for about a month and all. It was alright most of the time until I recently did a factory reset. Strangly it all went downhill from there. The phone started suffering hardcore wakelock issues. Overnight I'm losing about 50% battery if I decided not to charge it overnight.

I did another factory reset thinking it might fix the issues I had but it didn't so I went with hard reset. None of the actions taken have worked.

I downloaded Wakelock Detector ( really no use since it requires root for everything ) and BetterBatteryStats. BBS told me that event0-796 and event2-796 is whats keeping my phone awake ( screenshot in attachments ), not going to deep sleep ( I have attached some more screenshots from Settings/Battery and BetterBatteryStats if that helps... )

What should I do ?

Thanks in advance, Erik

I'm just going to deal with it. The phone still gets me at least 5hrs SOT throughout the day, and I always charge it at night. The wakelocks itself don't really bother me personally, it's just the knowing they're there.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhi08638:
The event wakelocks are irrelevant. I'm certain its an app thats keeping your phone awake so pay attention to the partial wakelock and alarms section in BBS. Also install wakelock detector and see whats keeping it awake.

[Samsung Gear VR] VRVoodoo:
The software allows mobile VR use with PC's -

My fear is that it doesn't use the sensors in the Gear VR, which will cause lag.

Does it run smoothly and is it worth a purchase?
[Samsung Gear VR] johnnobts:
Since there is no selling apps thru oculus storey yet I don't think the developer is that motivated to make it compatible with the vr. I will try the app out later.
[Samsung Gear VR] loxai:
well, there is a free version meant exactly to try before you buy...

why do you think not using the GearVR sensors would cause lag?
[Samsung Gear VR] Powerslash:
Not using the Gear VR sensors cause already lag, streaming and not using the Gear VR sensors cause even bigger lag.
[Samsung Gear VR] loxai:
[MENTION=6122397]Powerslash[/MENTION] that's not really an answer to my question.

The reason I ask is just to check if I am missing something: if gearVR is running with 1ms sensor updates (I think I read somewhere it was 1000hz, right?), and the phone does something around 10ms sensor updates, playing a game at 60fps, that is updating every 16.6ms, in both cases it can happen that the timing to grab input for next frame is missed, which creates a 16ms lag either way. Now the faster sampling means that the input data will be more recent and precise for the GearVR (i.e. next frame using 1ms old data), but even with 10ms, the amount of head movement change won't be that large (with 10ms old data in worst case scenario) and the imprecision is still low... isn't it? and that's without considering predictive sensor data to interpolate input. Idk, as I said, maybe I am missing something?

Of course, streaming is a bigger hurdle to tackle but, doing it right (and possibly lowering quality expectations a little bit), I don't think it is that bad... well, I actually think you can achieve pretty good results. Have you tried it?
[Samsung Gear VR] manefraim:
Just got my Note 4 Gear VR, on sale for $99 at Best Buy. Having used Trinus Gyre before with tremendous results on a standard cardboard, I'm looking around to find the best setup for getting it to run on the Gear VR -- maybe even a way to jury-rig some sort of usb pass-trough connection.

What do I find? The developer of the MARVELOUS Trinus Gyre just SHUTTING DOWN the opposition with an in-depth question that goes unanswered for almost a year. :silly:

Keep it up, loxai. I bought Trinus Gyre a few months back, and it has been a blast. :good::good:
[Samsung Gear VR] NamelessFragger:
Don't count on it; he says it's out of his budget, which is expected considering the initial $200 price on top of the price of a Note 4.

http://oddsheepgames.com/?topic=gear-vr-compatibility

Even then, to actually take advantage of the Gear VR sensors, he'd probably have to post it on SideloadVR or some other alternative store rather than the Oculus Store because of the way Gear VR applications need to be signed.

For me, the bigger issue at hand is that the Trinus server can't emulate a Rift tracker. This isn't surprising considering how the Oculus Runtime works, but it does mean that I can't play the Vox Machinae demo or anything else coded specifically to use the Oculus Runtime for head-tracking input rather than some other API like TrackIR or Freetrack.
[Samsung Gear VR] Nizda1:
Check out streamtheater. It's awesome you can get it through sideloadvr but check out the reddit thread for it. You can stream anything from your desktop to the gearvr, like steam games etc.

[XDA Assist] RuleNumber2:
Hi!

I really need help with this one (Not much sleep has been had). I'll start at the beginning...

After owning my Nexus 5 for about a year, I did all I could with an unrooted phone. I wanted more, so I rooted it (Successfully on Android 5.0.1). Then I wanted to do a dual boot. Ended up going for MultiROM manager installed from the play store.

Long story short, the phone wouldn't boot back into stock Android OS, tried to remove MultiROM manager from recovery mode... and managed to format the entire disk...

Every guide I follow, I get stuck on getting my device to be recognised by adb. (I've installed Java JDK, Android Studio and all relevant SDK packages... i think, but worth a check)

Fastboot works fine however.

Is there another way that will work in my situation, I can't have been to only one to do this!?

My question is how to identify the 2G, 3G and 4G networks discovered on ( selecting network Operator Manually ) in samsung Galaxy S series (S4 in my case) ..

I have used other android set and it was showing all networks with indication of 2G or 3G beside it ..

but when using S4 i can see the names only with no sign and no repeat ..
[XDA Assist] It_ler:
So you have the 4G model of the S4?

Then you should ask in the Galaxy S 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.

I know that there are different mobile signal indicators for the statusbar.

Some show "E" (for Edge), "G" (for GPRS), "H" or "H+" (for HSDPA), "4G" or "LTE" (for LTE), other show "2G", "3G" and "4G" ... this might be carrier specific. But on some custom ROMs, you can change it.

If your phone is rooted, you can also use various Xposed modules to modify those statusbar icons.
[XDA Assist] amged2012:
You got my question wrong .. I am asking about discovering the operators rather than my operator that are available in my location and what services they are providing ..

Actually it is not specified to my set only ..

Almost all Samsung smart phones have this . So I preferred to put my question here ..
[XDA Assist] It_ler:
Ok. You want to see additional information when manually selecting your mobile operator.

AFAIK this is ROM related.

Adding a blank file with the name .nomedia in the ringtones directory solves the problem but then in turn prevents me from being able to choose those files as ringtones.
