[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Connect the S4 to the PC, then install and run Recuva. Point Recuva to the internal storage and let try to recover files. Do the same thing to the MicroSD if it was wiped.

He will still have to reinstall his apps, and you aren't at fault for him not following instructions.
[Amazon Fire Phone] llllI:
Ok, so not 100% as-is. I sideloaded Google Play for a couple apps, namely Gmail and Line. But nearly everything else I've installed has come from the Amazon store. Unlike others, I don't feel like the phone is trying to sell me stuff, but when I do want to buy something, the process is super-simple. I actually love Firefly, and I love that it's one button away, even on my locked phone. I regularly find a new product in a store and wonder about the Amazon price. Now, it's incredibly easy to check.

Granted, I got one of the 3.6.8 firesale phones, and I think that update addressed many of the early reviewers' concerns, but it really seems like a great phone for, in essence, $100 unlocked, no contract.
[Amazon Fire Phone] ediebol:
I actually agree. Sideloaded play store... started with buzz launcher until I actually decided I like the Fire Launcher better. This thing performance wise in antutu is seriously a tiny tic under the S5... for $100? I'm very happy.
[Amazon Fire Phone] venussuz:
I'm really enjoying the phone without having it rooted and modded, which is a shock to me. Given that this replaces an HTC G2 (I know, ancient) I'm loving the capabilities as far as streaming audio and video - yes, video is much better on a tablet or my 45" tv, but it shows quite well. Having as much ram as it does available for running processes is pretty amazing for me. My only complaint is having to scroll through apps, books and audiobooks to find anything I haven't pinned to the front. I'll have to look into creating collections to make use easier. All in all, I thoroughly enjoy the phone.

ETA - the camera takes great pictures for a non photographer such as myself.

I made the switch from a Galaxy Note II and have been an Android user since I got my first Google G1. As first I found it a little odd, but I really enjoy FireOS now (having added Google Play store for a few oddball apps). I'm actually more productive and can multitask much faster on the Fire Phone than any other Android that I've used. They have a few bugs to work out and some needed features, but not a bad start!
[Amazon Fire Phone] RGNDI:
Same here, loving it, after Sideloaded Gapps and google now launcher (i rather have no wallpaper than use buzz launcher) overall its an amazing device for the price!
[Amazon Fire Phone] LilLowEK:
I agree. I purchased this phone for $200.00 with the one year of prime that I would have bought anyways. I'm coming from an old LG p930 that was getting slow even with Cyanogenmod installed. The battery life was awful.

This one, with update 3.6.8, is super fast, great battery life, and does a lot more than I expected. A few apps weren't there, so I side loaded them and installed the playstore. I, like most people, hate change - so was after getting an android launcher installed. I thinks this might have been the fact that i felt forced to use the Fire Launcher. I now came back to the Fire launcher, and I love it now that I have a choice. I disabled auto updates in google play as it was replacing some amazon apps that used the Fire widgets.

I really hope more apps start building for the Fire Phone as the Fire widgets are super cool, such as reading emails from the home screen, text messages, weather, etc. My only complaint right now is the fact that you cant' easily install an alternate keyboard. When I open the browser it adds the .com and makes the space bar smaller. This bugs me as I'm always either slamming it or the period instead of space when messaging or browsing. Amazon told me there has been a lot of feedback, and they design this phone to be similar to the Kindle. They assume an update will be pushed out in January that will address this, and other issues, as the Kindle allows you to change the keyboard.

Other than that, I wish I could sort my apps in the grid. Outside of those simple things, now that I can side load a few apps I used on a day to day basis, I love this thing! (I do miss Cyanogenmod from time to time though.
[Amazon Fire Phone] Xyth:
Mine is stock except for loading the Play Store and Play apps like Play Music, Play News Stand etc. I also use the Google Now Launcher as I like using the hands free "Okay Google" functionality to send emails and texts without touching the device. Great while driving.
[Amazon Fire Phone] llllI:
Thanks for all the replies! I stand corrected! :cowboy:
[Amazon Fire Phone] ractar28:
In fairness, "as is", isn't a fair statement. Like others, I have sideloaded google apps and use the google now launcher. I find the stock launcher to be counter-intuitive (scrolling down in apps instead of sideways, and not having the apps in alphabetical order in the app drawer).

I wish I could root it and run CM11. I would rather have the same hardware without the dynamic perspective (and the extra cameras) for the same price. It's a neat "show off" feature, but it serves no actual purpose to me. I'd rather have a bigger screen in place of the 4 extra cameras.

The UI reminds me a lot of the WebOS from the HP Touchpad I had. I liked WebOS better than Android, but the app support for it was crippling. The same can be said of the Fi re Phone.

Of course, had they left it with vanilla Android, unlocked bootloader and root access, we couldn't have bought the phone for $200. The launch failure is what allowed us to get such a "deal" on the phone. If they'd given us all the features without loading all the stuff that made it Amazon-centric and breaking a lot of the apps, it wouldn't have been such a flop and they'd have sold out at a higher price. So, overall, the ONLY reason we got the phones so cheap is because of the stuff Amazon did to it.

I had a Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3, and I miss the huge screen, but a functional phone with GPS and wif i that don't regularly die is what I wanted and what I received.

I really believe that a lot of the haters out there are simply looking for reasons to hate a device they've not used. They wanted to not like it and they succeeded. I wanted a cheap phone with great specs and I got just that.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raistlin1:
I would suspect that the midnight blue back color of the Nexus 6 isn't on the moto maker for the Moto X 2014 but I am curious if anyone know what the color is or what the closest color would be. I assume the back is some shade of blue but I guess it could be black, does anyone happen to know on here? (I know this is no the N6 forum)

I thought slate at first but slate is very light, the only other color I can think of is navy blue.

Thanks
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raistlin1:
I have a Nexus 5 so I know how easily the back can show grease. After I posted this thread I found out that the black back is more of a soft touch material so I think I will be getting that now. I went to an AT&T store to test it out and it also has a better grip to it than the colored backs.

Install any Custom Recovery with Fastboot:

For this method to work, you must have ADB and fastboot installed on your computer.

Copy the recovery image to a convenient location on your computer, preferably with a short path. We will be placing it on the C Drive directly (not in any folder) and using that in the next steps.

Note: The recovery image should have .img extension. If it is in a zip file, extract the .img file from it before proceeding.

While your device is powered on and booted in Android normally, connect it to your computer via USB and

Connect your device to your computer via USB and wait till you see ‘fastboot USB’ on the screen.

Launch Command Prompt and type the following command:

fastboot flash recovery c:\recovery.img

Note that we have used c:\recovery.img as we the image extracted at the root of our C drive and renamed it to recovery.img. If you extracted the file elsewhere, use the appropriate path and if your recovery image has a different name, use the appropriate name or rename it to recovery.img first.

Wait for the process to finish and reboot your device once it’s done.

Using the recovery file

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
An OTA update will not work on a rooted phone! For the OTA to work it needs stock recovery, stock rom and all of the files that it is attempting to update. If anything is missing then it will error out and return to your present setup.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
and to complete what majmoz already said, if your rom is 100% stock, and you have flashed back your stock recovery, the phone will update fine but you will loose root. You'll need to flash a custom recovery after the OTA to re-root the rom.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monrokhoury:
Guys you're very helpful and i must thank you for that. i am on the official 4.4.3 rom so i just need to restore the stock recovery? how to do that? and will the current rooting method work on lollipop (and should i follow the same steps to install clockwork recovery)? Will the ota update relock the bootloader?

i'm sorry if i'm asking too many questions but i don't trust any other forum.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
If you have not modified anything to your rom (Kernel is stock and always was, you have not deleted any /system files and you still have or restored all the content in /data/preload (wiped during bootloader unlock), so yes all you need to do is to flash back the stock recovery that match your version.

The same way you did to flash a custom recovery:

fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

Flash the latest supersu from a custom recovery. Version 2.37 and above should work on lollipop

You always flash the recovery using the same commands, stock or custom, on all versions its always:

fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot

OTA updates will never affect the bootloader status (S-ON/S-OFF, LOCKED/UNLOCKED/RELOCKED)

Hi,

I'm not a developer.

I've Innjoo i1 (which is a MT6582 phone only available in Middle East and Africa)..recently Mediatek release the source code for MT6582.and CM source is available to download I see.

So I just wanted to know if this's enough for me (or someone else) to compile Cyanogenmod for our device..(Speaking CM 11 or 12)

If it's enough then I'll read and learn then compile it..if it's not..tell me to stop.

And what exactly do I need to compile CM for X device?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndM14:
Being rooted won't prevent OTA updates. You WILL need the stock ROM, unchanged system partition(no edited build.prop etc) and stock recovery to perform updates.

So best to make backups in case there aren't any backups for your device.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Itsvictor:
Thank you for you're reply is it true that with supersu there is a full unroot option as well? Does that actually do justice I literally only want to root my phone no flashing custom Roms or kernels
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndM14:
Yeah there's a full unroot, there's also a unsupersu file in the "Return to stock 100%" thread, somewhere in the general section.

But even so, like mentioned, being rooted won't prevent OTA's. If you're not going with custom ROMs and Kernels then just make sure you have the stock recovery back when doing OTA's else it'll fail.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
Don't forget unlocking the bootloader [MENTION=1676777]HTCDev[/MENTION] will wipe the phone and you loose some apps in the process

to take the OTA these missing apps must be restored also same as stock recovery.

At least that's how it was on the M7 pretty sure it's the same on the m8
[Amazon Fire Phone] llllI:
Anyone else have any apps that can't access the network after sideloading the Play Store?

Specifically, I'm trying to get my banking app, Simple, to work. It's not in the Amazon store (I've contacted them about this.), and when I search the Play store, it doesn't show up. Googling for the link tells me that the app is incompatible, so next step is to sideload it, and it works, but says there's no network access when I try to log in.

Initially, I chalked it up to the app, but then Waze was crashing on me, so I reinstalled (from Amazon), and after I got it to load, it was complaining about no network as well. I got Waze to work after some fiddling, not really sure what I did.

Anyone else having these sorts of issues? I've turned off auto updates from the Play Store, and I've installed very little from there.

If anyone wouldn't mind sideloading the Simple bank app to see if you can log in, I'm curious. (You don't need a valid account, I get the "Check your network connection" error regardless of what I put for credentials.)

Thanks.

[Amazon Fire Phone] Xyth:
If Play says the app is not compatible it is probably because it requires Android 4.3 or better to run. Forcing the app onto Android 4.2.2 (FireOS) is just asking for trouble. Maybe look for an older version of the app or wait for the FireOS update that hopefully will be out in the next month or so.
[Amazon Fire Phone] llllI:
Ah, thanks for the tip. I doubt I can find an older version, so hopefully the update is out soon! :mad:
