[Sony Xperia ZL] fanghan:
Hey guys,

I just bought a 2nd hand phone online and the previous owner is not a tech savvy one, he updated the phone's software to 4.4.4 but did not root/unlock bootloader. I currently just managed to unlocked the bootloader, and now im stuck with a phone running 4.4.4 with no root nor recovery. Before you guys advise me to search the forums, i did and the rooting methods are either fixed, requires a bootloader to flash kernels/superuser, or vice versa (requires root to flash recovery)

I have been looking all around the forums to no avail, any help would be appreciate.

Thanks

Get the Xposed framework first.

Then download the YouTube Adaway module.

You'll be free of ads. :) I've tried it.

But be sure to download the Xposed deactivation zip file too. Just in case something goes wrong...

For all kinds of ad blocking Adaway is the best.

Hello all new to Nexus device. I've been using adaway since Samsung S2, Adaway always work flawlessly ever since day one. But it seems to not be blocking all ads especially ads in games like asphalt 8 and a few others. I don't ever seem to remember ads not being blocked in my games. What I'm trying to say is ads where always blocked in games when I used adaway in on other devices. Is this just a lollipop issue or am I possibly doing something wrong? I'm currently using adaway 2.9.2 from XDA. Could anyone give me some advise. Thanks

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tyrantsbane:
So I recently got sick of constantly flashing roms because of my terrible compulsion for it.

I decided to go back to stock and wait out lollipop. I used the lg flash tool to go 100% back to stock. So I am sitting on d80020c.

Problem is I can't get any OTA. It keeps saying server is unavailable and I can try again in 24h. Talked to AT&T on live chat and they kept getting errors trying to push the update(s). They escalated it to the update team but it can be a few days before they get in touch.

LG pc suite was worthless cause it said I was on the latest version. Can't find the kdz for current firmware either.

Anyone have any clue? Or do I need to wait for AT&T to get there crap straight?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr.duct_mossburg:
Hey Everyone,

As my post history will show i work for big red on the indirect side. We closed some doors a few months ago and Samsung never came to pick up their displays or devices. We have tons of Samsung devices as this table was the larger 8 unit setup and went through two generations. One of the devices left was an S5. I have a NOTE 3 and am waiting for the Edge to release and wanted to play with the GS5 in the mean time (I also have a Tab S that I want to sync with). I've discussed all of this with the samsung rep and he told me to just host some contest with the devices and give them away. I was given unlock information but none of it works. I tried to update the stock firmware with Odin but it wont get retail mode off. All of the devices have radios in them and i can use it, but the retail mode continues to come up.

I'd love to play around with the phone if anyone has a fix for this. If not, the world doesn't come to an end.

Thanks,

Chris

I've done the "wipe cache". Take the battery out and wait 20 seconds. I even danced around my office chair to see if that would help. I tried 2 other computers. NOTHING. This retail mode is stupid. The sales person should be able to tell you about the phones features. What do they get paid for?

I'm out of options here. Can anyone please guide me in the right direction on how to get these phones out of demo / retail mode please.

Is there any painless way that I can get the recovery and SU flashed without wiping the device?

Then run from adb (whilst connected by USB and have copied the recovery.IMG into the same directory as adb/fastboot) fastboot boot recovery.img then flash the supersu.zip and reboot. You keep official recovery and get root. Worked for me. Easier and less trouble than it sounds.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] speedyjay:
Since no-body has started a thread for Lollipop on our beloved SM-N9005's, I thought I'd start one for us :)

Here's what you need in order to achieve awesomeness:

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005 ONLY!)

The firmware file located here: https://mega.co.nz/#!qk12UYYB!4fg39KkeatkTtcShS4rUljWpU1rGnMC9XL3C17z8Crk

Or here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/43185/N9005XXUGBOA5_N9005VFGGBOA2_VOD.zip/ (UK Vodafone) others can be found at http://www.sammobile.com

Odin - located here:http://www.mediafire.com/download/vwuqru9m1jp9wbw/Odin3_v3.09.zip/

The Samsung drivers installed, if not they can be found here:http://androidxda.com/download-samsung-usb-drivers

1. First you need to download the firmware package, once done, extract

2. Then you need to install the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 drivers (if you have not already done so, if you have, proceed to step 3)

3. Extract Odin.

4. Open Odin using right click, run as administrator.

5. Their is a .PIT located in the firmware folder you extracted in step 1. This is for the 32GB variant ONLY! Using this on the 16GB variant will most likely result in a brick! If you have the 16GB variant, skip to step 6. If you have the 32GB variant, flashing with the .PIT is optional. If you wish to use it, click pit in Odin and locate the extracted file from step 1, and select the .PIT.

6. Click Bootloader and select the file that starts with BL.

7. Click PDA AND select the file that starts with AP.

8. Click CSC and select the file that starts with CSC.

9. Click Modem and select the file you haven't yet selected.

10. Then you need to power off your device.

11. Once done, we need download mode, to enter this you need to hold Vol Down + Home + Power at the same time. Once done you will be prompted with a screen with a load of writing about custom roms etc, press Vol Up to continue.

If you're using the .PIT (remember 32GB variant ONLY!!) On the left hand side, make sure auto reboot is checked, repartition is checked, F. Reset Time is checked and Phone Bootloader Update is checked.

Once all these details are entered correctly and you're happy to proceed, press start.

Let it do its business, it usually takes around 8-9 mins to complete. Once done you're running pure awesomeness on your device.

Please Note: I can't stress enough that the .PIT file is for the 32GB variant ONLY!!!!! if you're running the 16GB variant, DO NOT USE THE .PIT FILE!!!!!!!!

Also, I take no responsibility for bricked or damaged devices, by participating in the above, you take all responsibility for yourself and for your device. You have been warned my friends. Happy flashing!

I initially thought was happening in Chrome, but later on I got it is the same in GMail app in the mail body section too and any other place that HTML is rendered, so I think it is a type of system default font too.
