[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] xanderharris86:
So I rooted with towelroot a couple months back, and currently running the latest Trents rom (4.4.2 I believe?). I was curious if anyone else has been able to install lollipop roms? I get a bootloop when installing through safestrap (latest version). I also just get a black screen when attempting to install 4.4.4 roms (I tried the latest DU 4.4.4). Anyone know why this may be happening, is there a fix? If you need more info I'm happy to provide... I'm just not sure what info would be useful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mattnmag:
Since you're on 4.4.2 with Safestrap and your bootloader is locked, you have to stick with Touchwiz ROM'S that are using the 4.4.2 stock kernel.

4.4.4 and Lollipop won't work since they're not using 4.4.2 stock kernel.

[General Accessories] BennTech:
I'm looking at getting a Parrot MK6000 to stream bluetooth audio from my Wizard (Cingular 8125 w/A2DP ROM). However, I don't want to use Parrot's voice recognition for its tedious and limited built-in phonebook because I already have Microsoft Voice Command to control my Wizard. It's a deal breaker for me, especially considering the MK6000 costs over $200 with ISO wiring kit.

Can anyone with a similar Parrot car kit tell me if I can disable the Parrot voice recognition and just have the car kit mic pass voice commands to my phone like I do with my bluetooth headset?
[General Accessories] BennTech:
To answer my own question, apparently "yes" thanks to a great user review by mpd at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=293430 (could have sworn I searched for MK6000, but maybe I just searched for Parrot).
[Sprint LG G2] syedmoazzam:
Hay guys i just recently flashed my g2 ls980 with stock zve firmware. Everything us working fine except that sim is not being detected no matter what i try. I am really confused as i am a total newbie and am unable to understand technical stuff.
[Sprint LG G2] br0adband:
With stock ZVE (that's pure Sprint stock) which SIM are you referring to because with that stock ROM on the Sprint G2 the only SIM card that will ever be recognized at all will be one from Sprint to enable LTE network support.

So... I don't like to assume things, hence the question: what SIM card are you talking about? :)

The LS980, aka the Sprint G2 variant and the same phone I have, is network locked aka SIM locked to Sprint only if you're running a pure stock ROM which is exactly what ZVE is. The only ways to get the SIM unlocked for other network operation would be a) do a somewhat complicated set of tasks to get it to work (not worth the hassles really and certainly beyond your admitted "newbie" status with respect to this level of tech) or b) install a custom ROM like CloudyG2 (the name just changed today, prior it was known as CloudyG3 but that confused people with the LG G3 and they were trashing their phones trying to install it - it's a G2 ROM ported from the actual G3).

There are other ROMs as well that unlock the LS980 for GSM operation aka regular SIM cards, you may end up using one of them to get proper GSM functionality - LTE support is spotty depending on the networks in your area and the Sprint G2 only supports a few LTE network bands.
[Sprint LG G2] syedmoazzam:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gabsoro:
Hello guys, this is the first time I am posting anything so if I am doing anything wrong, sorry just say what it was and I will try to correct it. Well due to some unfortunate events I needed to get my GSM Galaxy nexus running again, I rooted it a long time ago when I was trying to get into roms and mods, but I had to leave that aside due to some other projects that demanded a little more attention at the time. Since my device was having some battery problems I thought that by updating it the problem could be fixed, at the time it was running CyanogenMod 10.2.1 if my memory is right. I went into the update tab under settings in the phone itself and tried installing CM11 from there. the phone prompted me if I would like to do it and I hit yes, it booted into CWM and it proceeded with the installation. But then it gave the status 7 error and the instalation could not be completed (from what I've read this problem happens when the device is not the one compatible with the Rom being installed, I went in the script and checked it, but it was maguro the same I had used for some time , since my device is a GALAXY NEXUS GSM model. Well I went to bootloader again and then do CWM and found the Rom I was using earlier (the CM 10.2), I flashed it and it was all "nice" and working but the battery was discharging way too fast and I tried it again but this time, for some reason (some times I do stupid things) I deleted some folders from the inumerous 0/ folders my device was accumulating and the CM 10.2 was among them. After I that I tried flashing another CM 11 Rom, an older one to try and see if it went well. sigh.... It did not. The same problem occured and now I cannot flash the working Rom. The Phone boots but it does not get past the google logo and then turns off and boots again going directly into CWM , I tried using Wug Fresh's Nexus Root Tollkit, but since I can't go into the settings of my phone I can't configure the drivers properly and if I try to use the Flash Stock + Unroot option with soft-Bricked/Bootloop option checked it returns that a fastboot device was not found. And hence I can't do anything else. Well I don't know what to do and my knwoledge is fairly limited, so anything can help. I have already searched some solution in other treads but none have given results. Does anyone can guide me where to look or some thing I should do?

Thank you very much for any time spent helping.

When I opened the phone the hardware was mix between d800 and d801...

Tried to flash d802 but touch doesn't work... And d800 is an at&t version....

After a lot of forced qhs bulk mode... Still no where... Any help is appreciated...

I had a light go out in the room today, can you guess what happened to make it go out?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mpoehling:
Please help, have read others but they did not work for me.

Voice mail is really messing with my life. I can not get any voice mails.

I have to call another number to get them. The numbers are out of state and I am just

not comfortable calling someone else for my voice mails. Can someone help me on this matter. I am running cm SnapShot M1 1 -l900, w/ hangouts. Do not like Hangouts so much.

Just want regular voice mail..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] altimuh:
I had been using a Sprint Visual Voicemail app for quite some time, but I recently tried out cm12 and it's not compatible. So in order to get vm I started using Google Voice (I only use it for vm, nothing else). Once you set it up, it's pretty slick.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mpoehling:
Thank you altimuh, I too have that in but, I can not get the voice mails on the messenger they had, I use go Launcher and go messaging. I do appreciate you answer, just need a little more info for this problem...

Can't seem to sync my calendars either. I really like this rom too. I guess I will have to try CM nightlies 12 and see if that works.. Could use some help and input on this too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mpoehling:
Am I using the wrong apps to get help with these things? Also can you tell me why I lost the

settings for my APN. It is telling me "I do not have permission" What do I have to open or check to give me permission to change them?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] altimuh:
I have not jumped into the nightlies just yet as I heard there was some issues.

I'm on the 1/7 version, and use voice for voicemail. No other apps except for a different keyboard - everything works fine and no sync issues.

Which recovery are you using? Philz Touch 6.07 has been a champ for me.

I would wipe everything. Manually delete everything from your internal memory. Then in recovery do a dactory reset and prepare for new Rom wipe. Wipe cache and dalvik cache.

Then do a fresh install. Make sure you verify your md5 sum after downloading the Rom and gapps.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ojamaa:
Hi

I recently bought an used S4 and immediately noticed fast battery drain due to cell standby taking much battery. When I wanted to do an update to it I began to find more problems.

- Kies can't find the phone

- There is no download mode, rather a chinese factory mode

- OTA update gets error during installation

- IMEI doesn't match on the backside and in the system (the backside is right according to IMEI.info)

I've read much about the problem and it seems that these problems often occur with fake S4-s though I am quite certain that this one isn't (or it's a really really good one..) Antutu benchmark shows 28222 for the score and the design looks the same as the originals. The hardware should also be the same according to the results.

I am quite clueless at the moment, as I can't update the phone through KIES, Odin and OTA.

Is there anything else I could do?

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:
It seems a refurbished or CLONE one. It will be a good copy. Take a look: HERE.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
The Chinese factory mode is a dead giveaway. This is a fake S4.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ojamaa:
I've read the topics about the clones and my phone doesn't have these distinct features the clones have and performs as well as S4 in benchmarks. Isn't there another possibility?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
A genuine S4 recovery will always be in English. If your recovery looks like this, your phone is a counterfeit. The confirmation here is that Kies cannot find the phone, and OTA updates fail. Sorry for the bad news, but I don't see any other alternative.

EDIT: To eliminate any possible confusion, install CPU-Z, run it, and let us know what the processor is. Anything other than Exynos and it's fake.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ojamaa:
It says

Samsung Exynos Octa 5410 1.21ghz

clock speed 497mhz-1,21ghz

cpu 0 working , 1,2,3 are stopped
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Head to this site, enter the IMEI from the back of the phone, and print off the information in it. Then send the phone to Samsung. It appears that in your case you have a badly refurbished phone, in that someone installed a ROM from a counterfeit Samsung to a genuine device.

The reason you need to send the phone to Samsung is because the IMEI displayed in the phone does not match the IMEI on the back of the phone. Samsung has the tools to fix it.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ojamaa:
Thanks, can I just take it to the Samsung Service Center and they can do it there and do they charge anything for it too?

The IMEI on the backside seems to be correct as it should be an S4 manufactured in Vietnam and sold to U.A.E. (United Arab Emirates I think).

The only thing that doesn't match up is the screen resolution - Screenspecs app show that it's 720x1280, but that could also be because of the counterfeit ROM?

And big thanks to you guys for helping me sort it out so quickly, I owe you one :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Honestly, the processor speed worried me more. I don't have a 9500 so I don't know what CPU-Z is supposed to report for the Exynos. I will say the screen resolution plus that Chinese recovery really have me worried. However, Samsung will sort it out. They'll be able to tell you for certain if the phone truly is legit, and if it is they should be able to restore it to factory.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ojamaa:
Well Antutu shows me that it's 250-1600mHz so I guess it's clocked to 1.2. Antutu also shows the screen resolution to be 1080x1920. Well I'm going to the SCS first thing tomorrow and we'll see!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ojamaa:
I went to SCS and turns out it's a clone.

Anyway, thanks for the help!
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ojamaa:
Actually there's still one question :

Is it possible with a s4 clone, to change the baseband frequencies of the radio, because both the phone network and wifi are eating up the battery?

Unfortunately, not that I know of.
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borderfox:
As per the thread title...Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (S7560M)

It 'flashes' when plugged in - the screen brightens for half a second - then goes dark. That process repeats itself in a loop - a second between it 'flashing' each time. That was yesterday. I left it plugged in overnight. This morning, I powered it off - then powered it back on. Now the screen brightens - and presents a screen with the model number displayed (and "SAMSUNG" underneath). That flashes up for half a second - and then screen goes dark again. That sequence repeats itself in a continuous loop.

I'd be grateful for any suggestions as to how I can approach troubleshooting this, what's most likely to be at issue, etc.
[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borderfox:
Got this resolved. Got phone into recovery mode - and managed to get it booted up. Alongside that, it seemed that the usb cable I had was defective - so have thrown that out and replaced.

All good again.

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nermerno:
Hello,

I'm currently running the lastest (150118) release of mokee, and my phone can't seem to enter deep sleep. In BBS, the event0 and event2 wakelocks take up nearly 50% of the device on time, and I get an average of a few seconds of deep sleep time, resulting in terrible battery life. Attached are the BBS screenshots.

I did some research and figured out that event0 and event2 are the events from the touchscreen and hardware buttons, but I'm not sure how this would affect the battery levels especially when the screen is off.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] salespalace:
it's not, it's a wifi issue, and most likely an issue with your router. it seems that with some routers produce some weird signals with your phone, and leads a rogue app to constantly try and use your wifi whilst you're in deep sleep.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nermerno:
Is this supposed to happen even while my WiFi is off? It seems that no matter where I go, the phone just won't enter deep sleep and seems to drain more battery locked and off than unlocked. I've tried switching to nameless 4.4 and it is giving me the same problem, which doesn't seem right.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Entropy512:
The nature of eventN wakelocks is that they almost NEVER actually hold the device awake for very long.

They're a symptom, not a cause - when the system resumes, they hold a wakelock from the time the kernel resumes, up to the time when the frameworks wake up and process the event (which in the case of a resume is, if I recall correctly, pretty much a null event.)

So if you have high eventN wakelocks - something is causing your system to suspend-thrash.

In older kernels, there was a "suspend_backoff" driver to handle this case, and at least hint as to the nature of the problem. I reimplemented the backoff functionality in Omni's kernel to help debug such an issue. (Way back last spring, there was a bug in the battery/charger management driver that would cause a stuck interrupt to prevent suspend. The device would try to suspend, error and abort, then resume, then immediately try again, over and over and over again. You could actually SAVE power by holding a wakelock to prevent the thrashing.)

You'll probably need to look through dmesg to figure out why your device is suspendthrashing.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] nermerno:
Hi Entropy!

I've gone through and attached a dmesg.

I'm not particularly sure how to interpret this, but instead of trying to suspend and abort, it seems as if the device is continuously suspending for 0 seconds and waking up. I'm not quite sure why.

Could you take a look? If you need anything else to figure this out I'd be happy to provide it.

Thanks!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Oppressa:
I've been reading and downloading a lot but am not sure for example how to use LVSW's ROM as a base, then add my own programs and settings so that hard resetting would be much faster in the future. I've tried extracting his ROM using the rom koch but keep on hitting errors or am faced with screens I'm not sure what to do with.

Would anyone be willing to start putting together an online guide on how to do this for those who aren't sure? There's too much information scattered in random Hermes threads on this forum!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mrvanx:
I can give it a shot dude....see the guides in my sig. PM me about it ;-)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Oppressa:
mrvanx, I do know how to do everything that's in those guides. But I had those guides in mind actually when I thought of a cooking guide mainly 'cos you've made them so easy to follow.

Upgrading and flashing is no problem for me, I understand it all, but mainly because these new cooking programs are brand new, there's no guides associated with them and I just get lost when I extract everything and start experimenting.

I just want the ability to set everything up in a ROM as though I had just done a hard reset on my phone and set up everything ie updates, programs, start menu organisation.

And by the quality an amount of your guides, it seems like it's something you enjoy doing!

While working to get my GPe Ultra back up and running, I was looking around for any good deals in case I have to end up buying a replacement, and came across a 32-GB version of the Z Ultra. I was so tempted but ultimately, I prefer LTE & this one is (Japan version) not LTE compatible with US At&t. But if anyone is interested, take a look at

http://www.ebay.com/itm/UNLOCKED-NE...542?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35e3aac226
