[Blu Vivo Air] HiddenKnight:
After doing some reading the Vivo Air comes with a MediaTek 6592 chip set.

When checking out the previous link I provided for the MediaTek root tool, I noticed it was confirmed for our chip set.

"This tool supports major MTK chipsets such as MT6592..."

As I keep saying, I'm going to give it a shot as soon as I am home tonight. I'm out at a hookah lounge. But the moment I get home, I'm going to crack into it.

I'll post my results.

Credit will go to OP for suggestions of the tool. Verification will be posted soon :D

Try Use vRoot With Android Debug activated (Setting -> Developer options -> Android Debug // To Unlock Developer Options go to Setting -> About Phone -> Click 5 times on Build Number)

if that don't work.. Try http://www.kingroot.net/

and if that don't work too try Kingo Root.. if all that don't work you can try the Chinese CWM Recovery Tool.. There have an option to install Root

Do you have root access in your blu vivo air if yes which software you have used to root your phone
[Blu Vivo Air] DvDwx.:
TRY use the tool MADE TO GIONEE ELIFE S5.1 to install CWM.. There have an option to root (because that is needed to install the cwm..) i don't have sure but it can be the last option (4. option) on menu :highfive:

Just remember to turn on the android debugging (ADB driver) to it can be possible to run (maybe with that you can try vRoot again and gonna work)

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gnormal:
The feature I liked most about miui was that I could choose certain permissions and block them across all apps with one switch,then make a white list as necessary. For example an app going in to read my address book would get fed blank data until I whitelisted (so it wouldn't throw an error in the meantime).

How can I get this behavior from my z3? I looked at a lot of the permission managers and the only ones I found require me to painstakingly inspect and adjust the permissions on each app one by one.

Certainly miui is not the only flavor that got this privacy frame done right?

I haven't rooted but I would do so just for this.

Hello all,

I am new to xda (I mean for posting , I have read forums many times before )

I want to know how people create a root for device . ( Note : I have already rooted my phone and don't need to

Know how to do that. Neither I want to find of files or anything)

is there any thread or article that explains how to create a root for a new device or how root is created for

existing device ( I flashed some files like boot image file or unlocked bootloader ) I want to know how such

Boot images are created . I am learning programming( but new to android programming though ) and so I don't have problem of understanding any advance guide which explains such procedures.

Thank you.

I have a rooted S5 SM-G900F running Android 4.4.2 G900FXU1ANE2.

I used Wanam Xposed to set the device status as "official" to be able to get the OTA update. The update downloads but won't install. The reason is weird! Refer to the attached photos, notice that the battery is 100%.

Any idea on how to fix it?

Sorry if this post isn't in right category I'm new.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] burtcom:
Post your experience with Lollipop on the Note 3; things you like, things that are different, problems you have had, solutions you have found., so that others can benefit.

I've tried two ROMS based on the leak, echoes and flex. I really like many of the features, but I have reverted back to KitKat for now.

It seems many of the TV-watching applications, such as Disney XD, Cartoon Network, etc. do not support Lollipop yet. For me, they crash on video playback. I ran into at least one game, Crossy Road, that crashes too.

I also had a strange issue with WIFI. I could connect to my 2.4 Ghz band just fine, but could not even see the 5Ghz access point. After I reverted to KitKat it was fine.

When ROMS based on the official release for my region come out, I will try again :)
[Galaxy Note 3 General] thahim:
[MENTION=470913]burtcom[/MENTION] is it possible to revert back from lollipop?

Can you root it? What about xposed framework?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] burtcom:
Yes -- I ran into a few problems but I managed it.

Essentially I downloaded a KitKat rom from Sammobile, then flashed with Odin. I ran into an issue with the flash, and had to reflash with a PIT file.

That gave me a stock KitKat, which I then had to root by flashing CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx

Finally I flashed philz_touch_6.13.0 for recovery

Took all morning yesterday. I found a few threads on XDA which helped a lot, I'll see if I can dig them up.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] diggedy:
I flashed the leak and other than the odd bit of stutter it's been as solid, if not more than kitkat.

One of my favourite new features is the trusted devices. I keep my phone pin locked but I can now set it so I can just swipe to unlock if my smart watch or Bluetooth hands free is connected. I walk out of range and it pin locks again.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] burtcom:
xposed will not work with Lollipop, unfortunately.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] frnkly:
I liked it so far but until Sammy release the source code then we are limited with mods. The leak is solid with some expected bugs but with more releases it will surpass kit Kat very quickly. ..

I went back kit Kat though just cause no official room is our yet and I like xposed framework mods. ...
[Galaxy Note 3 General] smeddy:
I am very happy and have been since the first leak. Encountered no issues whatsoever, experiencing much better battery life, and other than a fee complaints (white menus etc) it's a solid improvement that makes this feel like a new and improved phone.

I do miss Xposed, but I mainly used it for battery tweaks and notification bar shading, which Lollipop resolves for me anyway.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] WelshnThirsty:
I've been using Echoe ROM for the past month and I'm very pleased with it.

For me battery life is better than it was with Kitkat, Touchwiz works properly and I've not gone back to Nova.

There are a few things you need to get used to like interruptions, but all in all its an improvement over Kitkat.

As soon as some of the apps catch up with Lollipop it will be perfect.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] erwinsie:
hi thinking to try lollipop, so what is the most stable rom and less bugs?
[Galaxy Note 3 General] jester27:
I installed the leak on 1st release and found it awesome much better than KK.

However once I got my LG G Watch R for Xmas it was a total disaster

My watch would not stay paired for love nor money rendering it almost useless as a smart watch

I would go back to lollipop in a heartbeat if it worked with my watch ok.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] sirobelec:
Long story short.

Pros:

+ the thing is DAMN fast.

+ me gusta material design.

+ yes, better battery life. :D

+ the insane multitasking added from the Note 4. It's like that the Alt+Tab has an Alt+Tab. :D :D :D

Cons:

- WHAT THE **** IS WITH ALL THAT WHITE ON AN AMOLED SCREEN

- Did I mention the white all over the place? And the cyan? That color scheme can make me poke my eyes out just for s**ts and giggles. Don't mistake me, I like the design, but the color scheme is hideous.

- While overall navigation, opening apps and the such, IS fast, Recent Apps can have a bit of an odd delay.

- No Xposed yet. :/ :D Well, rovo89 warned us we might have to wait.

Also, I must commend Samsung with the Troll OEM of the year award for updating the N900 and the I9500 to Lollipop before any of the Note 4 variants. :D :D :D

P.S. I also hope to all gods that Samsung f***ing implemented Ultra Power Saving Mode that doesn't need a mod to be made available. Such a mode should be made available for any device with an OLED screen.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] IODroids:
Thanks for making this separate thread:

I am very new to Android devices, Note 3 is my 2nd device.. earlier device Lava IRIS died within a week (it was a very old handset)

Used BB a lot and tried apple as well.

My experience with lollipop as a layman.

Pros:

1. Application loading is bit faster comparatively.. consumes little less battery especially with large apps.

2. Using internet related applications, (playing online games consumes less battery with improved performance)

3. Device gets charged more quickly..

From 0% to 100% in less then a hour. (using official cables)

Cons:

1. The white menus everywhere (too disturbing for eyes, if there is no way to change this. I will get to Kitkat again). I really hate this new interface.

2. Weird brightness issue, its too dim sometimes and gets fixed automatically.. (disabling auto brightness and making it run on 10) wont give that brightness when you are standing on road under sun.. cannot view mobile properly like reading messages etc under sun.

3. Massive battery drain.. not sure when/where its happening..

a. Idle mode consumes lot of battery.

b. Use same old Background applications I suppose, which ran normal on Kitkat mite be consuming more battery now..

4. It takes almost double time to hold home key to kill all recent apps..

5. Device gets charged way too slow (when using unofficial cables from chines mobile phones etc.)

Will share more as comes to mind..

Power button menu

I flashed the Russian ROM without factory reset. Overall it's working fine so far.

WTF with this new power button menu ?!! .. I won't go into the hassle of the missing Silent mode for favor of Priority ... but do I have to unlock the device each time to change the sound mode ?!! ... Who's this idiot in Samsung who came up with this ?!!!
[Galaxy Note 3 General] IODroids:
That's really sad. I liked to hold power button and get to mute or vibration mode.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] Someguyfromhell:
I like Lollipop.

Yes, there are a few Xposed modules, that I do miss sometimes, but I still prefer Lollipop.

The design is nice, white color on that AMOLED screen isn't as bad as I thought it would be. The color in notification area and settings isn't the nicest, but I can live with it. Isn't too much of a problem for me to go and edit it.

Battery life is far superior than on KitKat (honestly, I tried - downgraded to KitKat, ran in same configuration for 1 day, battery life was a lot worse)

Performance-wise I can see some improvement as well (yay for Android Runtime).

5th day since I had last restart, no issues with that.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Jimmyslam:
Hi there, If I flash it with Odin , will I lose all installed software and configurations?

Also I have Knox Status: 1 .... Does it matter for this kind of flashing?

I don't have that much time to upgrade and then having to install every single app and setup wifi etc..

Thanks!

If not I will just flash it straight away.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] WhiskeyCobra:
My observations

I was looking for USB functionality (see here) so I flashed the official N900XXUEBOA6, 5.0, russian release. Actually I was trying to root kitkat with Chainfire's auto root and that failed for some reason. Kies wouldn't even do an emergency recovery so I just went to ODIN and flashed as mentioned, thinking 'here goes nothing'.

Suprise surprise, flashing went through without a hitch. I did nothing else. Stock loader, no factory reset, nothing. After the first boot, it checked my 278 apps for compatibility issues and found none. After booting everything was there.

So I browsed around a bit after getting into some more USB testing and found performance improved across the board. Apps load faster, smaller RAM footprint, on screen sliding is smoother, etc. I found the new icons a little lacking but survivable. But...

BUT... when I pulled down the notification bar to go itno the config menus... OH MY.... OOOHHHH THE HUMANITY!! Dogs barking, babies crying... Hell on earth. Those colors man! I mean Microsoft failed miserably with their new Windows 8 interface but this goes beyond failing! These guys took a next to perfect interface, took out some of the best features (as others mentioned, power menu, etc), replaced the icons with some windows 3.1 versions of the same, slapped the worst colors they could find on it and called it "new". You guys at Google and Samsung have taken Microsoft's pills haven't you?

Sooo, as soon as I was done with my testing five hours later, I reverted to Kitkat. To do this I went back to ODIN and flashed back a stock Kitkat from Sammobile's page. This succeeded but it wouldn't boot. Following someone's suggestion in a thread did a factory reset and partition wipe from the boot menu (power down, hold volume UP+home+power buttons to enter) and reboot. After that it booted and worked fine. I've been able to retrieve most of my personal data from a Kies backup I had done before starting but there's no way around installing all the apps manually again after the factory reset.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Jimmyslam:
I have updated from KitKat.

But I can't see a few features like screen pin lock or trusted devices. It runs smoother but I can't see much difference to be honest.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] gf7800:
The gallery takes ages to open, also the the recent apps

very annoying ,very embarrassing .My old one x is far superior regarding these two points .
[Galaxy Note 3 General] DevilsArc:
Stupid issue but I can't find the area where you control what hours the phone automatically sets itself to priority mode. I read on a nexus thread they can control that bit we can't??
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Graffiti Exploit:
It's a smooth criminal. The only issue I noticed is that "Kill All" button is laggy when you tap on it even with just with one app on it.

And sometimes it heats up quit high during light gaming (Tap Titans).

Message notifications sometimes just show numbers rather than the name.

Other than that love the new design. A smooth criminal.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] dj-suicide:
i liked lollipop but there was a few bugs what forced me to go back to kitkat.

1) gps wasnt working properly.

2)one-handed operation wasnt working

3) wifi kept disconnecting and i would need to keep entering my password.

other than that its been pretty good, battery life seemed to be better than kitkat, its felt more snappier

nandroid backup

Hi, is there any way to do a safe nandroid backup of lollipop rom, because any time i do a full wipe, i lose my data .
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Sgt. Kofeyeh:
overall I ike it more than Kitkat

So far I am diggin it... the phone is alot faster, stock launcher is very smooth (For Touchwiz that is saying something) and I like the overall new experience. Oh and the Mediaserver draining the battery is gone now. However, recent apps takes 3 seconds to open, "kill all" button also takes ages to respond and the gallery takes a century to open and has an overall sluggish performance (was running fine on kitkat). Also the battery took a hit due to the white backgrounds.

Other than that I am very happy with Lollipop and not considering downgrading any time soon.. =D
[Galaxy Note 3 General] rob_612:
I've used the russian release for more than a week now, and I really like it.

I did a "dirty" install at first, just flashed it with Odin without factory reset. It had a few glitches here and there (music player crashed, settings crashed), but then I did a factory reset and it's perfect now. Battery life is like 10-15% better (my own opinion, no benchmarking done), phone is smoother and a lot of features from the Note 4 have been implemented. The multi window is waaaay better too, I'm really happy with it.

Camera app is the same as KitKat, but it's good enough.

The only issue I've had so far is with the S View cover (3rd party). It's recognized at first, but after a few minutes, the screen does not show the S view, but the screen wakes up when you open the cover. If the cover is closed and you press the power button to light up the screen, nothing happens. Not a big problem for my because I don't really use that cover anyway, but it might be a big problem to someone who uses it all the time.

It's an amazing change, I really recommend to update if you want, it's very stable. No random crashes or reboots (but make sure you also make a factory factory reset after flashing).
[Galaxy Note 3 General] Lindexslp:
Besides the a bit annoying BT disconnect and reconnect issue with my Gear 2 now I discovered a second issue when I decided to put my original Samsung S View inductive cover back on to the phone (SM-N9005)

Battery life went down dramatically to about 10h 100-0% with NO activity on the phone at all, just lying around idle on the kitchen table.

I found the Unified Demon to be the culprit which was more or less constantly trying to do a location update using GPS so intensely that the phone's back even got warm.

With the screen on I could see the notification bar slide up-down-up-down-up-down within seconds showing GPS usage.

Replacing the cover with the simple plastic lid again the battery was back to normal again.

I had some issues with the Unified Demon already previously, whenever I tried to open the weather view or weather clock face on my Gear 2 the UD crashed on the handset.

Waiting for the final build now...

try downgrading to jellybean. it's a risk but worked fine with me. I had to downgrade because kitkat was draining my battery like crazy. now it's still not as good as when I first got it. but better than kitkat. that's for the battery. but concerning the reboot, you might as well try to downgrade back to the original stock that came with the phone. just download it from sammobile.com and flash it via Odin. you will find the instructions on sammobile.com.

[Galaxy Note 3 General] cyrax2013:
i flashed the New stock Lollipop official firmware yesterday, after the process was complete i immediately unmounted the ext sd card because it had lot of videos on it and i knew that the thumbnails of those videos will be created immediately after the installation of the new firmware, because of which the phone will heat up a lot and would consume a lot of battery. Later on i just added .nomeida files into those video folders, so that for the time being Android OS will forget about those folders. Since yesterday i have been using the phones continuously for making calls, facebook, whatsapp, browsing the net using chrome and the stock Samsung Browser, etc. But i am yet to see any kind issues, everything is working flawlessly, Loads of Thanks to Samsung for Including all the New SPen Features from Note 4 in this Update. I am really liking everything about this Firmware, its way too early to comment on the Battery Backup but what i Observed is that, there is a 10 - 15 % increase in battery Backup as compared to KitKat. One more thing i would like to say that, the phone becomes kind of laggy if we kill any tasks, like even if killing chrome web pages from .he recent task manager made the phone laggy and only a restart could resolve the lagginess.
