[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mbnaeem:
I've been hearing people say that firmwares should always be flashed in increments. I went from 3.32.206.9 straight to 4.16.401.10. Is that too much of a jump. How do I know what firmwares are in between?

Thanks.

Ps. I was s-off and supercid if that means something.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Means nothing in this instance as you've gone from the o2 build to unbranded EU build, and 3.x to 4.x is the next incremental step

It only matters if you're doing the OTAs in order as they have to be done one at a time as each one requires the previous version to be present to patch
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kthsdm:
Hello there, I'm a bit new to this, but I wanted to try flashing a custom rom. I was using So I chose Carbonn 4.4.4 rom. Prior to that I installed doomslord CMW recovery 6.0.30 and did a backup of my Rom. Then I booted into recovery, wiped the data and flashed the carbonn Rom. Everything went fine, then I realized I hadn't flashed the gapps. So I rebooted my phone into recovery (Pressing the volume up button at the 'sony' logo). However it doesn't boot into recovery. The led light turns blue and it's stuck on the Sony logo. The only way to get out of it is the power down the device manually by pressing the power button and volume up button.

Rebooting into recovery only causes this problem. Otherwise it boots normally into the carbon Rom. How do I restore my backup? Since I can't boot into recovery?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
The latest Carbon ROM has recovery which doesn't work on Our phone. Follow the procedure here to flash a working recovery.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kthsdm:
Tried that but cant seem to work. Besides it requires busy box to be installed which I cant seem to install. Any apk for that matter cant be installed. It shows "Cant open file" :(
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Mirhawk:
if You are on latest version of carbon, You wouldn't need to root as the ROM is pre rooted. Are You sure Your apk file are good? Because in any case, You must be able to install at least an apk file. Did You try messing with the ROM before?

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donkeycarts:
I own a second gen Moto G and I've only had it for a few months. It got some superficial surface cracks at the beginning but nothing harmful to the phone.

Today, I was adjusting the brightness on my phone as normal (it was working normally before) when the display turned to black. The screen was still responsive, but the screen was off.

I've restarted the device multiple times. The display works perfectly with no problems during the boot up and it shows the boot screen clearly. When it gets to the screen where I enter my password, the display turns to black and becomes completely unresponsive.

Can anyone help me? Thanks.

Edit: I put the phone into recovery mode and was met with the "no command" screen for a few minutes before the screen turned on, booted up, and turned off again (turns off slowly, as if the power button is pressed).

2nd edit: put the phone into factory recovery mode and the same happened as above. This also happens when plugged into charger. The phone still receives updates and vibrates and the notification light still turns on.

[T-Mobile LG G3] Braaainz:
Wondering if anyone has looked into G3's laser. Im hoping to use it for distance calculations for everything from range finding, to more importantly, use in an AR Sim.

What information and activities are permitted with/thru it?

Edited to add:

A search has yielded interest, but no access. Haven't found recent info (in last for months). Looks like the laser is very short range (possibly only good at macro lens level).

Hope LG opens up its access sooner rather than never.

Recovery of your choice

SuperSu zip

Android phone of course

Working brain :p

Download the SP flash tools and Mtk VCOM drivers and extract them to desktop.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] ppz_uk:
Hi guys,

Recently I just got myself a Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 GT-N5110. Everything worked well for the first few days. However, on one day, the icon of WiFi on my tablet said it was off so I tried to switch it on but it seems like it cannot turn on the Wi-Fi at all. I tried to reset the tablet several times. But nothing helped. That annoying issue still exists. So hope you all could help me. Thanks in advance

Your wifi module may have gone bad. Check to see if you see WiFi scanning when you enable it. If you don't see any names listed or for some reason it jumps out of the scanning screen, it is not able to communicate with the WiFi module. May have been dropped.

Hello, could anybody help me?, my screen got broken, it was driven by a car :( nothing can be seen, touch is not responsive, but my problem is that I haven't enabled adb.

I would like to install custom recovery and do full Rom backup before sending for repair, but can't do nothing without usb debugging enabled in phone

I tried do something by fastboot but everything failed.

Or maybe there is some way to connect mouse via otg and TV via mhl simultaneously?

Any help would be appreciated

I recently set my phone back to stock with the latest RUU I could find from Rogers. Now I am trying to perform the system updates, and when the system goes to install them, it restarts back to recovery. I have found the file in my downloads folder but I didnt want to install it without a little insight first.

Thanks guys
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
So i'm going to assume your device is s-off, please do correct me on that if i'm wrong ;) Do you still have the stock recovery? or did you flash TWRP or CWM after using the RUU?

You cannot install OTA's with a custom recovery it must be the Stock Recovery :good:

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
because the ruu is encrypted. If you can't find the recovery that match your version, just re-flash your ruu.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FowlMouthedDuck:
Does this re-install the stock recovery as well?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
The RUU flash both the software and firmware of your phone. The recovery is part of the firmware so yes re-flashing the ruu will overwrite the custom recovery with the stock one.

Its not common to flash a ruu to restore the stock recovery but in this case it might be the easiest solution since you already have the ruu on your computer and you already know how to flash it.

---------- Post added at 09:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 AM ----------

don't forget to backup your personal files before, the ruu will wipe everything;
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FowlMouthedDuck:
Exactly what I was thinking. Luckily I have not done anything to the phone since I flashed the RUU last week (trying to sell it). I just want to make sure it is able to receive OTA updates after I sell it so this should fix that issue.

One last question, I know it is not always wise, but I have heard people having issues turning the s-on with hboot 1.56, and that's what I would like to do so that the phone would be out of the box stock when I goto sell it. Is it possible ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Yep looks like that's the best solution. There is no stand alone recovery download for your version-main. Just flash the RUU and take the OTA's before you flash the custom recovery again :good:

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shadowfax1007:
I currently have a GT-i9195T, which is a Telstra (Australia) variant of the i9195. I'm trying to flash a new ROM (pref CyanogenMod) but I'm getting highly conflicting information on whether it is possible on this model. I've searched numerous threads, websites and posts but all the information has been a mess.

Basically I'm looking for confirmation that it is possible on this phone, and help as to how to flash a recovery, rom and anything else needed to get it to work.

I've been flashing ROM's since the first days of Android, so I'm not entirely new to this but I have no experience with Samsung phones (which appear to be a little more complicated).

Has anyone successfully flashed a T model variant?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] nemopsp:
Well I've had this Note 4 for 8 days noe an today I read online that there was an issue with the speaker buzz while playing music with volume all the way down.. an I found out I have this issue too.. is it a serious issue? Should I take it back to AT&T an try to get a new phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hyukki:
Breaking news! A mechanical device that produces sound buzzes!

It's normal dude. The way I see it... people are nitpicking way too much. You can't even hear the buzzing unless you have your phone really close to your ears. Stop worrying about it and live a day longer lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] nemopsp:
Nitpicking really... I just paid $830 for a Samsung Flagship phone...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hyukki:
Like the other guy in the other thread said, it's probably the system keeping the speaker on for a bit longer than needed. Every speaker will have noise. Try putting your ear close to your computer speakers without playing any sounds. Or even your TV. You'll hear it. But do you care? No.

$830 won't bend the laws of physics...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] ReggieSmith:
Question... how often do you play music with the volume all the way down? THAT is what they mean by nitpicking. If it were easily noticeable while the music was turned UP, then I'd say you have a problem.

All speakers do it.

http://www.satguide.in

When I checked this website just now, the description says that maps of only Delhi, Mumbai and Hyderabad come with the Destinator software at Rs 5,000 and the rest need to be purchased at Rs 990 (US$ 22) each. If you already use Destinator (which btw is really good), you can just buy the maps you need on the site.

[Xposed General] Sublation:
Given the fact that Xposed does not work on art how will that affect your decision to upgrade to Android L?

Comments should include lots of beer for Rovo89.
[Xposed General] Axaion:
Due to xprivacy needing xposed it's the only thing that makes me still use kitkat..
[Xposed General] umataro42:
Aren't "no" and "I will wait until Xposed works with ART" the same answer? If you won't upgrade without Xposed ("No"), that seems to imply you would upgrade if it works with ART.

I'm willing to wait, there are a few Xposed mods I really care about like Xposed call block, full use of Greenify, MinMinLock and RootCloak, and others I could probably learn to live without but still find convenient like Chrome New Tab, CrappaLinks, Play Store link in App info, PlayPermissionsExpoxed, Statusbar Scroll to Top, and Swype Tweaks.

I upgraded my Nexus 7 to Lollipop (on Purity ROM) without Xposed, but I don't use that daily like my phone, so on that I'm wiling to wait, and even stay on KitKat indefinitely.
[Xposed General] bratusm:
I can stick with KK for many more years.... Until Xposed come for LP, I WIL NOT have LP... Simple...

Perhaps it's just me, but, I'm also still on win7, until...
[Xposed General] pyler:
You may stick with KK and Xposed for years, but devs probably no. They would slowly abandon their modules, if Xposed framework development stopped.
[Xposed General] Blackbird256:
Nah I will wait. There isn't single feature in Lollipop that isn't in KitKat.
[Xposed General] neonixxx:
I've been holding out, but just last night I decided to try out CM12 through MultiRom and now I'm completely torn. :mad:

On one hand, I have my beloved Xposed modules which add awesome functionality as well as some fantastic visuals (Flat Style Keyboard is the most difficult to give up...) and on the other hand is the absolutely beautiful experience of using Lollipop. I hadn't used it first-hand until now, and I was honestly blown away, and still am after using the rom all day today. Everything is just so much smoother and feels like it is working the way it should. I feel that with material design, Android finally stands up to iOS in terms of visual appeal, fluidness, and consistency.

*sigh* I suppose I'll find myself switching off between the two roms for a while, unable to choose one.
[Xposed General] adomm420:
Still on 4.4.4, cause xposed isn't compatible with lollipop yet :-/
