If I flash a stock based Verizon G3 ROM, would I lose the ability to tether as well? '
[Verizon LG G3] findinghomer:
It's on a custom rom. Pretty sure it's rooted ;)
[Verizon LG G3] sfgmanh:
If it's on custom rom and rooted, still my question is about software updates and hotspot/tethering ability. I'm glad not to update if I get to keep my ability to use the phone as a hotspot with no fee.

Hi,

Some Apps or a Webpages forwards me to the Google Play Store automatically.

Sometimes, when I am on a webpage, it opens a pop up ("virus warning",...) or forwards to a new web page.

Is there any way to prevent this "forwarding"?

I already searched at Google for this problem but it seems there is no way?

(http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2597413)

I could disable Javascript on my internet browser (Google Chrome), but it would also restrict some possibilities on other webpages.

I have root access and installed Xposed Framework.

Thanks for your help in advance! :o

Thats shadow of mordor innit? How fast is the stream from ps4 to the z2 tab? Is it like playing nativelly on the console? I would certainly consider a ps4 if i didnt purchase a 256evo ssd along with a G1 980. The synergy between the tab and the console looks sweet.
[Xperia Z2 Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sfex3best:
It's almost perfect. I completed most of the game on the tablet. You'll see people complain about it but those people are still running on 2.4ghz frequency wifi which means the bluetooth messes up the remote play. I can play on high with 1 wifi bar without any problems.

I even had both console tv and remote play up at the same time and my eyes couldn't see a difference.

But there is a small downside unfortunately. If you want to play a competitive game you will notice a difference.

I'll give you an example yesterday I was doing time trials on driveclub. On the tv I managed to get 1.42 and then I switched to the tablet and the best I got was 1.44 and I honestly tried. I admit I could've reached that 1.42 target but it was definitely much harder on the tablet.

I'd recommend the gcm mount it's useful even on android games. Though buying a whole console just for remote play I'm not sure.

I did buy this whole tablet just for remote play but I'm a big nerd ;p

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] engineer2loggie:
I have a a Lenovo Yoga 8 B6000. Im running 4.4.2 and after some fiddling, used Vroot to root, and subsequently went through some arduous steps to finally remove the Vroot and replace with SuperSu. Life was good. Then I got a little careless when removing some of the bloatware and ended up with a constant boot-loop problem. And of course, no backup. (whoops!)

I have been researching this the past 2 days for a workable solution and am reaching out for some more refined assistance.

Here is what I have done thus far:

When pressing Power + VOL+/- I get to the initial recovery menu which gave me: Recovery, Fastboot, and Normal. After selecting the "Recovery" mode, I get the "No Command", after which I pressed the power button one more time and got into the English recovery menu. I show

Android System Recovery <3e>

B6000_A442_001_026_141117_WW_WIFI

Reboot System Now

Apply Update from ADB

Apply Update from SDCard

Apply update from Cache

Wipe data/Factory Reset

Wipe Cache Partition

I attempted to wipe the cache, followed by Wipe data/Factory reset. Following this procedure, I remained in the boot loop.

I installed ADB Flashtool drivers for WIN7 and attempted to use flash tool which was also suggested on this site. I got a 4.2.2 ROM "B6000_A422_000_059_131219_WW_WIFI" from a russian lenovo forum site to use with the flash tool and because the tablet continues in boot loop when starting, there was no loading of the ROM from that method.

I put the rom on an SD card and went into recovery mode. The ROM was not visible by the recovery menu (By that I guess the Apply Update from SDCard is looking for a specific file extension, which is not present).

I may have tried a few other things which are not popping into my head at the moment.

Im kind of at a loss and looking for any ideas from the gurus out there on how I might be able to get any kind of ROM to flash onto my B6000 and getting it up and running again.

Thanks

The trickiest part was getting the Mediatek driver installed. I use a dual booting MAC with WIN7 and sometimes there are some kwirks when operating in WIN7. However, the results of the instructions brought my tablet back to life, as well as downgrading to 4.2.2

Hi!

Is there any rom without googles stuff and which rom offers most free ram?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marxus_Rainbow:
Hey Guys!

As I finally gave up looking through hundreds of comments and several different threads I will try it this way...

I am not new into flashing, as I messed around a lot with my Galaxy S2 and especially with my HTC HD2 (loved that thing!)

Now I wanted to flash my G2 too (after 2 years with stock rom), but something went wrong. I can neither enter download- nor recoverymode. But it works as usual, even after resetting it to factory state.

It just showed me the boot security error then I was able to force restart it by holding Power + VolUP and it was reset to the state where I bought it.

I rooted with ioroot, then I tried to put CWM on it (CWM-Official- TOUCH-6.0.4.4(D802)), which I already figured out that it wasn't the best idea, since everybody seems to use TWRP on his G2. But I didn't know a thing about TWRP and I was used to use CWM for flashing, so I tried it.

Then I read that there is a problem with stock ROMS and ADB root, because the CMD showed me an error saying that "adb cannot run as root in production builds". By doing some research on the Internet I figured out that something went incredibly wrong. ( I also forgot about the bootloader.. it was a long time since I flashed a phone :rolleyes:)

My Phone is a open LG G2 D802, KOT49I.D80220g, 32 GB.

I have already messed around with this for some time, but it wasn't successful since the device wasn't shown in the ls command, I assume it's because it's still recognized by Ubuntu as an MTP? (I read to page

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2582142

But every other solution I have found requires download mode, which I'm not able to enter (Not by pressing Power + VolUP (or Vol down) until LG Logo, then release and press again, nor by holding volUP while plugging in the USB cable (of course the device was powered off))

Does anybody have some advices?

I hope I gave all information you need.

Kind Regards

Can anyone provide me with a solution. I would like to be able to boot into recovery and/or flash a new rom (witch is not possible atm because of the device not being rooted)

If I forgot something. Ask me, and i'll update the start post with the info necessary.

[Moto X Q&A] TrudleR:
I use CM12 on my HTC One (m7, GSM) since 2-3 Days and I have no major problems until now. I had around 2 random-restarts.

I am very satisfied with it and would never change back.

Only problems I got:

- I wanted to do a hotspot to surf on the internet with my laptop. The hotspot appeared in the Wifi-List, but I wasn't able to connect. Maybe I did something wrong.

- I once wasn't able to activate the wifi on the device. But a restart fixed this.

Android 5 is ultra fast compared to other versions I used. It looks very good and the apps start/end with nearly speed of light. Everything runs very smooth.

PS: I didn't encounter the "battery draining" or the "slow charging" problem. This is around the same as before. I hoped that the replacement of Dalvik would bring more efficiency on games (device heats up if you play for example "Boom Beach"), but this is the same as before.

PPS: Here is what I HATE about android 5:

You cannot disable the google bar on the top of each home screen. I also tried to freeze it using "Titanium Backup Pro", but this leads to a crash of the whole homescreen. I hate, how google tells us what there has to be an what not. The only solution I found on the net is, that you install the Nova launcher or something similar.

Dont really want to create a rooted package myself, the steps can be confusing :p

Thanks!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamer649:
Since you have dual recovery on 4.4.2 you can use the pre-rooted package by niaboc79 (can be found in the Android Development section) or any pre-rooted stock based ROM based on 4.4.4. It is all down to your preference.

I doubt there will be a 3 branded pre-rooted package either.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ned_Flanders:
Actually you're right I should just get one of those roms which is not branded which would look better anyway :)

One last thing what is the steps to backup ta partition? At some point I will unlock bootloader but don't want to lose the dry keys

Cheers
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamer649:
In the Sony cross device development section there is the backup TA tool, simply use that. Also, make sure to upload your backup to a cloud service or something like that, in case your hard drive goes kaput and you need it to relock your bootloader.

Please remember that unlocking the bootloader wipes the internal SD card (not the user one). Also, restoring the TA backup relocks the bootloader so make sure you are on a stock ROM and kernel when you restore the backup.
