Most likely, You probably didn't flash supersu.zip in safestrap while flashing hyperdrive. This is probably whats causing this. Try to reflash hyperdrive again after a clean wipe but this this flash the supersuzip(latest) along with your other zips.

Thanks for the help.

I was able to re-root using Towelroot.

I could not reflash the ROM and supersu because I had lost safestrp after installing the ROM and I had no way to flash anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rnmac75:
I'm having the same issue, however, towelroot tells me that my phone isn't currently supported. I have a Verizon S4 on nc2, at least it says nc2. I was on nk1 and had to downgrade when I originally rooted. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hightower24:
When you downgraded, did you do the full wipe nc5/nc2? Or was it the no wipe?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rnmac75:
I used Odin to downgrade then did a full wipe with Safestrap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hightower24:
When you used odin, was it the full wipe tar file or non wipe tar file? Some have experienced problems using the no wipe tar through Odin. Try again using the full wipe tar in odin.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Nickname97:
Hello. My Sprint HTC One has always been an M7wls or (spr), and after a CM12 update, it now says it is an M7. I would like to proceed with caution, is it okay to install an M7 (no carrier) rom now? Thanks!

AFAIK, Sprint phones have different mount points than others so I'd advise against it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Hi guys,

I'm having a really strange issue. I wanted to update my M7 to firmware 7.15.401.1

So before rebooting into RUU mode, I always check my getvar all to ensure that everything is working. However, today, when I got into RUU mode, fastboot wasn't working. It was working in bootloader mode, but not in RUU. I got the 'Windows didn't recognize the connected device' or something like that. And, when I typed 'fastboot reboot' it was 'waiting for devices'.

My PC is on Windows 8.1 with the latest Sync Manager, my M7 is S-OFF, unlocked bootloader and TWRP 2.8.4.0. There's no issue with the working of the phone; its rocking MaximusHD perfectly. But this issue prevents me from updating my firmware or going back to stock if I need to.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
The issue is the driver, I had the same problem recently, when you plug your phone into the computer and put your phone into ruu mode or recovery, have a look in Windows device manager, it will probably say "one" with a yellow exclamation mark next to it, you need to force the driver, so right click on it, select update driver, the when given 2 options, choose Browse my computer for driver, next select android devices from the list it gives you, and then choose your latest myhtc driver, should be at the top of the list of available drivers, it will give you a warning about the driver might be wrong are you sure you want to install it, just say yes, done, problem solved.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamsys:
I am coming from a Verizon Note 3. Very familiar with custom ROMS, but since our bootloader was locked we never got kernels.

What do I get in a kernal that I won't get in a rom? I know everyone has their opinion, but I would like a Lollypop based rom and kernal that is solid. I used to use Beanstown and LiquedSmooth on the note, but not sure what kernals to use or just stick with CM12, and again what kernal????

Thx!!!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
Features of a kernel can be many things. Things like the ability to overclock, voltage control, sound control, extra governors and I/O schedulers that aren't included in stock kernels. There's plenty of information around if you do a Google search on the advantages of custom kernels.

In terms of asking for a recommendation, it's pointless, and if you don't know how to tune a custom kernel yet there's not really any point in flashing one until you've done some research on them first. So just find a ROM you think you might like and flash it, do a bit of research, and then decide if you really need to use a custom kernel.

Transmitted via Bacon
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrashTestDroid:
The kernel can enable things like dt2w, s2w, lower minimum brightness (esp useful on Samsung AMOLEDs at night), performance tuning, over/under-clocking, and much more. It's the key to getting the performance you want from your device.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamsys:
Are there Kernals that work with specific rom's better??
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
People will probably answer yes to that, but it isn't true, it's placebo.

So I'm currently running my note 3 with hyperdrive rom in the stock slot and alliancerom in rom slot 1, due to not setting up alliance properly and wanting to move some things around i'd like to move hyperdrive to stock slot 1, install a base nc2 standard android onto stock slot (so its properly stock haha) and then install a slim rom on slot 2. my question is, can I just do a full backup of stock slot, and then restore it to slot 1, i mean its kind of like copy paste but obviously things aren't always that simple, so would this work? Or how could I move my ROM without completely re installing it. thanks guys!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeyx2:
First off I believe they say the rom slots don't work properly so I would suggest just finding the rom you want to use and install it on stock slot and leave the rom slots alone but if you want to use them I'm sure just making a backup of the roms then installing them where you want won't hurt.

That's from BigginsRom thread.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xproplayer:
Few questions here, so when I go to the biggins rom page it says that if you were coming from NC2 / MJE you would install a different md5 than the one you linked, also what would happen if i just tried to install the nc4 objective rom right now into one of my rom slots, worst case scenario it just wouldnt boot and i could go back to recovery and change back to one of my nc2 roms right?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeyx2:
I don't believe there's a big difference in nc2 and nc4. They are both able to be rooted so I would just upgrade to nc4 (be careful that it doesn't upgrade you to 4.4.4 after you upgrade to nc4) and be done with it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xproplayer:
Well I want to use my hyperdrive NC2 still as daily driver, but I want to try out the objective nc4, I just flashed objective onto rom slot 2 and it booted but it didnt work it seems, as though it still has all my data from the other rom, guess that doesnt work haha. And it crashed com.android.phone and the os after a while.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joeyx2:
I just breezed through hyperdrive's thread and there's nothing in there that says anything about being on nc2 or nc4. Just that you need to be on 4.4.x kitkat.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tvandegr:
I am having some strange DNS issues when connecting my M8 to my home network on 5.0.1. The only DNS server listed on my phone is my router/AP (as reported by Network Info II) this is the same setup that worked with 4.X (and is currently working for my wife's S4 which is still on 4.X) when I try to use most data I get a DNS error (both apps and through Chrome). I say most because it seems like Gmail still works. Everything works at my work, but on that network I have real DNS servers listed.

Does anyone know if there is something that I could do to get 5.0.1 working with my WiFi?

If you flash the TMo U.S. production ROM you can't make any changes, they are "hidden".

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] eluth:
By default, the MMS provisioning from T-Mobile USA prevents editing the MMS settings.

You can fix this by editing the following registry key:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ArcSoft\ArcSoft MMS UA\Config\UI]
"EnableServerEdit" = DWORD:0

Turn the 0 to 1 with a registry editor and Voilà!

You will be able to edit the MMS server settings in ArcSoft!

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maxwell888:
Hi all

I love to use Swype, however I don't care much for the keyboard layout.

On swype I need to switch back and forth between the numeric/character screen and the alpha keyboard screen because their keyboard does not have numbers on same screen. You have to go to second numeric page and then flip back over to start typing again.

This is always a pain when I am typing in my passwords or something similar.

I recently tried Swiftkey and I love their keyboard (numbers up on top and basic alpha below). I don't have to keep switching back and forth to get to type in numbers then alpha then numbers etc... BUT...their swipe type technology is not good.

Swype is more forgiving on how I type and usually gets the words right when I'm zooming all over the screen...but swiftkey gives me weird and mostly wrong words. I spend more time correcting the words.

So to summarize...I still want to use Swype...but want the swiftkey keyboard layout or something very similar.

Swype keyboard themes I tried...but they are all the same...just the fonts or coloring looks different. The layout is the same.

Please help!!!
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deathshead:
Check out touchpal x.

I have used every keyboard since the Droid x days and nothing at this time beat touchpal.

no number row needed, just swipe UP off the top letter row for numbers,

special char you swipe down into the spacebar.

Hold hold spacebar for walkie-talkie like google voice input.

swipe spacebar up like a window shade for full emoji, etc.

word detection has been improved like 1000% on the last update
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2kbugleung:
Hi there.

I have just got a used-N5 on the Internet. It is a D821 (for Indonesia market I think).

Everything is fine except the LTE connection. (2G and 3G connection is normal)

The LTE problem is:

The searching speed is slow.

Even if LTE is connected, the response time and connection speed is extremely slow.

I have taken out my SIM card, and insert it into another N5 (D821) right next to this phone.

The speed is 10 times faster.

I am using CSL in Hong Kong, which the LTE is band 3 and 7 (1800 / 2600).

Baseband is updated to the latest version.

APN setting is correct.

No matter which ROM and kernel I use, the LTE problem exists.

Anyone have idea how to fix it?

Thank you very much!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Questions belong in Q&A.

Every D821 is the same, every D820 is the same. There are no specific regional versions for a D821.

The ROM and kernel have nothing to do with your network connectivity.

Try flashing a different radio version.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2kbugleung:
Excuse me, do you mean try flashing a different baseband version?

I have tried the one comes with Kitkat (4.4.4) but no luck.

I know every D821 should be the same, but I just wonder why under same configuration (ROM, kernel, baseband), but the result is different.

I suspect if my D821 is a remarked D820.

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Yeah, radio and baseband are the very same.

With the exact same software, the result can be different because not every device is made the same; the perfect Nexus 5 does not exist.

The only difference between a D821 and a D820 are the LTE bands it can access, everything else including the 2G/3G bands are the same. If it was actually a D820, you'd probably get no LTE at all, unless your carrier supports one of the bands a D820 can access; it would not mean you get "slower" or "worse" LTE performance - you'd either get it or you wouldn't.

It might just be a hardware issue if you think it's slow.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2kbugleung:
I believe it is a hardware issue as well

If someone on xda give me a hope then I don't need to bargain with the shop :(

Thanks :good:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2kbugleung:
Hi all.

Last night I have brought it to the shop and tested there.

The LTE speed is very normal... I cannot trigger the problem by any means...

I suppose it to be the signal reception issue.

I left the shop and found the speed might be somehow dropped, but it could be still considered as normal.

I went home, re-flash another ROM and prepare for normal use.

However, the LTE becomes abnormal again...

I have found an interesting thing.

I have flashed stock ROM and OEM LOCK before bringing back to the shop, and it is normal speed.

I went home, OEM UNLOCK and flashed a custom ROM, it is abnormal.

Now, I have just re-flash the STOCK, and the LTE is not so normal.

But after OEM LOCK, it seems to be fine.

I believe there is no relation, but is it possible the OEM LOCK to do with the LTE issue?

Thanks. :crying:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Bootloader lock/unlock state has absolutely nothing to do with your issue.

The ONLY difference between having it locked/unlocked is so you can flash images. It does NOT affect anything else.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2kbugleung:
I am a web programmer. I always suspect something strange when something cannot be explained (bugs in coding, I mean) :p

I have tested several times today. Locked bootloader still gives a poor LTE result.

I really have no idea why there is LTE problem...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Again, bootloader state affects nothing but the ability to flash images.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] y2kbugleung:
Yes I understand.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] hchastain008:
Okay recently I went through the steps listed in the article below to root my HTC One M8

http://androidcentral.us/2014/04/root-att-htc-one-m8/

Well it all went according to plan. So to test out my new rooted status I went and downloaded Xposed Framework and Unicon. After consistently trying to install/update the framework in Xposed (i never received an error. It would reboot just fine) I noticed that the update never applied. Though I never received an error, upon rebooting the update to Xposed was never applied. Just to check I downloaded an app to check my root status and well, I was not rooted somehow. I rebooted to TWRP quiet easily and installed the SuperSU zip which was located on my internal storage. (not sure if it had to be on an SD card, I don't have one.) It was flashed okay and I rebooted. I went back to check my root status and the root checker said I was officially rooted now. I downloaded another root checker just to be sure and it confirmed I was indeed rooted.

However, this is where the issue came in. Xposed now says I'm not rooted. Everytime I try to install the update, instead of rebooting it gives me an error that says "Failed to get root status." I had never received this error, even when root checkers said I wasn't rooted. Here is the thing, I'm not sure what I did wrong? Can someone point out a problem here? Something had to go wrong along the way but I'm really confused. Am I rooted or not? Root checker apps say I'm rooted, but Xposed says I'm not. How do I fix this problem?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] tommy_riley:
There is an app in the app store called root checker its free check there first
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] hchastain008:
Yeah I downloaded that. I covered that in my post. I downloaded the app and it said I'm rooted. However, Xposed says I'm not rooted. Essentially, I'm getting mixed results. The root checker says one thing and Xposed says another

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Spixe1:
I've been using the pac-man ROM for over a year now, but it's a very old version, buggy and outdated. I wanted to try Kit Kat or basically just find a stable ROM, but pretty much ALL of the ROMS i've tried end up unable to find any mobile network or display the SIM card as invalid. Even when I search for networks or try to add a network manually, it still doesn't stick. Occassionally it'll even find the my local network when I go in settings and do a network search, my network being that of China Unicom, but it always results in failure to subscribe, please try again later. This has happened on a good 7 out of 8 ROMS i've flashed. The ONLY ROM i've ever been able to find a network on and thus make it usable has been the old 2013 pac-man 3.99 build. I've searched the forum and google for answers, such as flashing a particular modem or whatnot, but haven't found any solutions.

Does anyone have any ideas? It'd be greatly appreciated. I really need an updated ROM! :fingers-crossed:

If it matters:

Network: China Unicom

I've tried: 4.4.4 CM11, Stone UI hD3, Carbon KK Unofficial 2014-12, CM10.2 nightly, CM 11 M9, KitKat CarbonCN, PC Honami KK RC3, and Xperia Z Z1-1.4.

Only working ROM so far: pa_togari-3.99-RC2-20131104
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
To use the more modern ROMs you will have to be on a 4.4.4 FTF or you will get baseband issues ie SIM cant connect to network etc
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Spixe1:
It's been over a year since I unlocked and flashed my phone, and I haven't done any flashing since, so I kind of forget some of the procedures and technical aspects.

I'm going over the FAQ now, and one thing it says is "Never Flash a FTF to a ZU GPe." What is a GPe, and how can we make sure we are not using it?

It also mentioned I should use Sony PC Companion to update to the newest firmware. This means it will update to 4.4.4 FTF right, or do I need to find this and flash it manually? Likewise, after I'm on 4.4.4, I assume my phone will be reverted back to stock. Would I have to root it and unlock the bootloader again?

I remember when doing all this for my phone the first time, since my phone was a Chinese model, 6833 I believe, I went through hell and back for several weeks until it flashed and took the current ROM properly. Something about buggy firmware in that paritcular model, although it's been so long I forgot all the details. I'm worried that I'll run into a similar situation with 4.4.4... :eek: Thanks for any help, truly appreciated.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Spixe1:
I tried to update to KK via Sony Pc Companion, but it says my phone is up to date. I assume it says that because it's not seeing any official firmware, due to the flashed ROM. Even when choosing the option to "repair my phone" which says it will re-install the latest available firmware, it states that there is no software available for my device. If memory serves me correct, I must first flash back to my oldest stock firmware that came with my phone, then I can use PC companion to update to KK, and then maybe unlock bootloader and root again, and then I'll be able to flash new ROMs and have a working mobile network, does that sound right?

Out of curiosity, since it's 4.4.4 ROMs that don't seem to work (network wise), doesn't that mean 4.3 ROMs should find a network just fine?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
I cant remember where/when the baseband changed, it has been updated several times. I would just go straight to 4.4.4 and not worry about PC Companion - Just use the latest flashtool (http://flashtool.net).

Grab a 4.4.4 (aka x.x.x.108 or .118) FTF from the FTF thread in the dev section and flash that. That will wipe all user data (so back it up) and install a new /system image. You will have to root the device again abut 4.4.4 is easy to root now with the easyroot tool. Then you should be on the latest baseband and all the new ROMs should work - 4.4.4 and 5.0.x
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Spixe1:
Thanks blueether, I'll give that a go and report back (hope you don't mind). Here's hoping (since i know the 6833 chinese model is finicky)...
