[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] hackerso35:
I found some apps that work very well with the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 smartphone. I find theses apps very beneficial to my rooted phone's health and organization.

Titanium Back Up

ES File Explorer

Master Cleaner

- I find that this and the other CM apps, make my phone run like new still.

CM Security

CM Battery

- I found this to be very effective.

WiFi Tether Router

- This does very good with Sprint phones.

Xposed Installer

*- Xblast module is very effective when it comes to customizing your phone's look.

And on a side note. I installed FoxFi on my wife's new S5. And I found it interesting that I never had to debug the usb (which I forgot to do, lol). Very impressed with the S5.

[Thinkpad Tablet General] U_Click:
I've got a Lenovo S6000-H 16 G.B. (Call & Msg Enabled) Tablet with Android 4.2.2 equipped. I think Lenovo company has given up on supporting it and releasing updates.

Is there any way to upgrade its Android (For example to 4.3 or 4.4) manually? If yes, would you explain how, please?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] Valittaja:
If Lenovo is no longer offering official OS upgrades, then it would have to be an custom rom.

If you use the search bar you can find information about flashing custom roms on your tablet, but I would

suggest you really study the case first,and make sure the ROM really works for your Tablet, or you might end up with an non-booting tablet..

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neo390:
Hey guys, i need help.

A friend of mine has an alcatel phone he used for basic needs. Not a developer or anything like that.

His phone (which is now in my hands) while booting will not go past t-mobile screen. Its stuck there and i dont know what to do.

The problem here is that he does have a backup of his contacts. This is the only info he needs from this phone. However the only thing i can do is enter recovery. That's it. I tried flashing custom recovery through sideload, but it got aborted. And when i put on SD card, the phone will not show it. Is there a way for me to backup the phone through stock recovery?

Or does anyone know how to get the contacts out of an unrooted, with no USB debugging, and with a stock recovery phone?

Please help.

[LG Optimus G (International)] puma99dk|:
my E975 was running a Android L Port with CWM, then i wanted to flash CM12 on it, that didn't work with CWM it kept failing no matte what i did, then i flashed TWRP on it, that wasn't problem it still didn't work then i wiped Dalvik Cache, System, Data and Cache, but that didn't work either now i got no rom or os on my phone and flash to stock rom guide i try ends up with an error and yes i am using USB2.0 and got driver installed and getting detected.

I have tried E97510H_00.kdz, E97510D_00.kdz and E97510B_00.kdz all leads to this problem (look at the attachment)

anyone got an idea? i still got TWRP on my phone but i can't get it to mount it so i can place a stock rom on it.
[LG Optimus G (International)] puma99dk|:
oki, my small phone up and running again, i adb push cm12 over.

doing like this:

adb push cm12-e975.zip /sdcard (renamed cm-12-20150110-NIGHTLY-e975.zip)

Log:

C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140702\sdk\platform-tools>adb push cm12-e975. zip /sdcard

1986 KB/s (237902546 bytes in 116.955s)

and then i tried with TWRP to do factory reset under wipe it still failed with:

E:Error executing updater binary in zip

then i rebooted in to the LG bootloader and flashed CWM (ClockWorkMod):

C:\adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140702\sdk\platform-tools>adb flash recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.4.5-e975.img

sending 'recovery' <8952 KB>...

OKAY [ 0.663s]

writing 'recovery'...

OKAY [ 1.213s]

Finished. total time: 1.877s

and when that was done rebooted into CWM and took "wipe date/factory rest" and choose "Yes - Wipe all user data".

when Back and entered "install zip" and chot "choose zip file from /sdcard" and found "cm12-e975.zip" flashed and rebooted.

it took some mins to go from the Cyanogenmod Bootscreen into Android just let it run until Android 5.0.2 is booted up and now it works again, just needs to flash gapps everyone can do that :D

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Capri72:
I brought nexus 6 few weeks back and I am facing below issues. Are these known issues and something to do with settings

1. Apps randomly hangs and doesn't close cleanly

2. Lag in display in caller while dialing through caller history

3. Incoming call doesn't display automatically when in battery saver mode

4. While on speaker at high volume some blur kind of noise

5. At times notifications on lock screen doesn't respond even after double click

6. Overall OS sluggishness at times randomly.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvveith:
Yes, most of them are common.

Most of these are common gripes, none can be corrected natively, but some can be corrected through different Rom's and such.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ripped85:
so basically all these problens could be fixed by the android 5.1 upgrade right? cause i have most of them issues... freezing apps is the worst.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
nobody knows that, since android 5.1 is not released, and nobody knows what is included with it. but most of these issues that are reported here are user types of issues. meaning its your setup that will fix or break these things. like freezing apps you said.. that doesnt happen over here. usually its your setup or types of apps used that will cause that(apps not ready for lollipop).
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vvveith:
That opens a big can of worms.

MMV, but the update should make things more definable. What apps a user may have and whether or not they are updated to work on lollipop should not be such a drastic issue, In a perfect world, Google should provide for backward compatibility or come out with a whole new version of their operating system; I.E. Windows 7 as opposed to Windows 8.

I recently put a different ROM in and used open minded Gapps for some idotic reason and now Nexus just reboots to password needed which I don't remember and it won't go into recovery at all so I can't factory reset it.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] runekock:
You should still be able to enter recovery using the key combination:

- power off the phone; can usually be done by pressing the power button a very long time.

- hold volume down and power button to power up. This should get you to the bootloader screen.

- here, select recovery using volume + power keys.

PS: it's better to start a new thread rather than reuse an old one that doesn't exactly match your problem.

that ells it what to do and into which partition it will go, so if you are only wanting it for a one time use, not a permanent flash, it would be fastboot boot recovery recoveryname.img you told it to boot instead of flash, and told it where it needs to be applied(recovery). hows that wrong?

I have updated my Nexus 5 to 5.0.1 recently.

The GMaps doesn't show the navigation icon in the notification area and only if I press the square at the bottom and look for GMaps card will it start again. Then I will need to restart the music app to play. But after 5-10 minutes the same thing happens again.

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derrtydee:
hi friends, hope all is well with ya. i have a question, for anyone else with a VZW Note Edge that they obtained on release date or shortly afterwards. does anyone else have a phone that's booting in Safe Mode, and will NOT exit out of Safe Mode whatsoever? I had some trouble activating it (despite VZW's simple instructions of just popping the new SIM in the phone and turning it on) so i got that taken care of, but even when I first booted it up initially, it was still in Safe Mode. There's a notification in the drop down bar stating, "Safe Mode is enabled" and to tap it to disable Safe Mode, which essentially just restarts the phone. and every time it boots back up, it's still in Safe Mode, which restricts any/all customization whatsoever, and what is the point of having a phone if you can't customize it. thankfully i still have my Note 4 handy if necessary, and i've backed everything up with VZW's cloud, Google + photos, SMS Backup/Restore for texts and Helium for my game data. i've done a battery pull, checked the settings, powered it off and on, performed a factory reset, and i can't find anything that will disable it, other than the predetermined instructions that Samsung has on the VZW variant page (http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SM-N915VZKEVZW). turning to you guys first before i decide to harass customer service and/or take a trip to a VZW store to handle it in person. is anyone else having this issue? thoughts? ideas?
