[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Well, 2 hours of screen on time is a very poor performance. What kind of usage did you make, 3G/LTE or wifi?

I got back to KitKat too because I wanted to try and see the difference between the two OS. So far I noticed that KK is not as snappy as Lollipop, however the battery life is better, I would say around 15-20%. Anyways I managed to make 6 hours of screen on time with lollipop under wifi, and 4,30 on 3G, not bad at all.
[LG G Pro 2] h8Aramex:
I was on the road, so the phone was switching, but its still a huge drop.

To be honest, if I disable animations on Kitkat, there is no lag, no wait, nothing.

Its snappy as hell. Lollipop just had more animations, like iOS and its false feel of speed.
[LG G Pro 2] h8Aramex:
Well, I could also use my ZeroLemon too.

But no lock screen widget, messed up sound profiles, and no Qslide Quick Memo?

This is anything but an upgrade.

The fancy effects dont worth it.
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Are you sure about Qslide and Quick Memo? I think they are still there, maybe you should go to the toggles menu and flag them.
[LG G Pro 2] h8Aramex:
Im sure. You can open a drawing app, but the mini notes view whereyou can write notes (and read old ones!!!) Is gone. I use this app daily, its awesome. Very comfy for multitasking, calls, everything. Try it yourself.

Ps.: Attached a few screenshots. It's just so damn convenient. Best feature on this phone. Or one of the best ones, but you get the idea.

If they fix this, I will be on Lollipop forever.
[LG G Pro 2] Franco203:
Oh ok, now I see what you mean. Yes you are right, it looks like they took it off the Qslide menu. Hopefully they will fix it in the next update, I agree that it's a very useful tool.
[LG G Pro 2] h8Aramex:
No probs. And thank you guys for the KDZ / download link.

Had to reflash my phone, but it had so many junk files already, that it's not a big issue.

(Wish I did a full backup with TitaniumBackup or something. I always forget about it. Damn.)
[LG G Pro 2] xb360:
There's a quick memo + that you can have it displayed in mini view, but you can't browse through few memos and you can't write directly from the mini view.
[LG G Pro 2] vy69gazerock:
Hello,

Can i ask some question? Do you downgrade from lollipop to kitkat? Any method for flashing the KDZ or just simply flash KDZ by LG flash tool?

I just want to back to kitkat too, but im to afraid to flash it, because i read so much post that say if i simply flash kitkat KDZ above lollipop, i will get bootloop evend brick the phone :'(

Thank you so much for the answer
[LG G Pro 2] h8Aramex:
Just grab the kdz of 4.4. Whatever variant.

Download the tool, plug in your phone.

Unlock your lock screen, press start in tool.

DO NOT CLOSE THE TOOL OR CLICK ANYTHING ONCE IT STARTS TO COUNT FROM 0%.

On my pc, the tool showed me some error. If I clicked it, the flashing stopped. And the tool also crashed at 30% or so.

So anyway. Watch your phone, and once it hits 100%,and it boots, you can close stuff on your pc.

LG phones are rock solid from what I have seen so far.

You can restart flashing countless times, go back and forth between versions, and its virtually impossible to brick these phones.

Try that with a Samsung. Lol.
[LG G Pro 2] h8Aramex:
I know, but as you said, its much dumber than the old Memo app.

By the way some people reported better battery life with Lollipop. But for me, Kitkat lasts 10x longer. I can easily do 1.5 days with normal use, while L did not last wven half a day. (I closed recent apps, and I dont use any "social" apps.)
[LG G Pro 2] vy69gazerock:
I try to flash kitkat KDZ above my current lollipop, i turn off the phone and enter the download mode and try to start flash with LG flash tools, but the error message that i attach is always appear, is there something wrong with my step?
[LG G Pro 2] h8Aramex:
Download mode? Just have the phone at your home screen.

Like you want to copy songs over or anything.

Then start flashing. Phone will THEN boot into download mode, and do stuff.

DO NOT CLOSE THE TOOL AS I SAID ONCE IT STARTS!
[LG G Pro 2] vy69gazerock:
i try your step, and still got the same eror message :((
[LG G Pro 2] h8Aramex:
Try this first:

Run the tool as administrator. Right-click the .exe file (the LGFlashTool... file), click "Run as Administrator."

If it does not work, try this:

Go into (Windows) Control Panel -> device manager -> look for the "LG Serial Modem" (or something similar) -> Right click... look for the tab where you can click "Advanced", and switch the device to "COM1" or "COM2".

I read this in a tutorial, but I cannot find which one. I also used my other PC. I don't have the universal drivers installed on my main desktop, so I cannot look this up for you.

If you get stuck, message me via XDA, I will reply in minutes if I'm online.

After re-flashing to KitKat, I have an even better battery life than what I had before. Before my phone would run 2 days with 3-4 hours of screen on time.

Now it's at day three, 4 hours of screen time, and it's still got ~20% of juice. Damn I love this phone.

Hope 5.1 will fix the huge drain.
[LG G Pro 2] vy69gazerock:
Not working either :'(, i will try to use TOT file

Thank you so much for guide and helping me :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmkagarwal:
Hello guys :)

Hope i'm posting this in right section, took me almost 10 mins to find how and where to post :crying:

I have done some surfing & got many question, will be thankful if some one can answer all this

1. What is the use of root? will this break warranty?

2. How to remove default apps from zenfone 5? cuz some are not good and i don't wan't them

3. Do i need to change kernal if i change/update firmware via update feature of phone.

4. If i root my phone and unroot it, then is they any way that service center guys can know that this phone was rooted before?

Thanks :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toolhas4degrees:
1. root is full access to modify the system partition on your device - yes it will void warrenty

2. you need root access and go to system/app or system/priv-app and delete them via root explorer then reboot device

3. yes, kernel needs to be compatible with firmware

4. they typically know if the phone was rooted by looking at the bootloader, before rooting most devices you need to unlock the boot loader first. this leaves a tampered flag in the bootloader
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmkagarwal:
If we update via in-build update feature then how it updates the kernal? does it come in firmware?

Can't we re-lock the boot loader?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toolhas4degrees:
you could, but in htc for example it says relocked instead of locked.

in stock rom yes kernel is in built in ota update with firmware.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lmkagarwal:

should i root my asus zenfone 5?

I can't answer that for you. if you are unclear about rooting process ask in a zenfone general thread since i do not have the phone, and it does void the warranty

Hi,

there is a way to change the default accelerometer range on Android devices that is +/- 2G?

I is possible modify it on a rooted device well, otherwise i could install a modified version of android through AOSP.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tommy_G5:
Hi Guys,

I have been reading around the forum but cant seem to find the answer to my problem. Or the suggestions are going over my head, so hope you can help.

I have a stock htc one m7 that is unrooted but it is sim unlocked. Went to bed with the phone working and then woke up with it stuck on the htc boot screen.

Things I have tried:

- get into HBOOT (which i can), then try recovery. This just reboots the phone to the white htc screen or screen just goes off.

- try and hard reset from hboot, but this does the same and either turns the screen black or reboots.

Both times i have left the phone for a while to see if it is up to anything but nothing happens.

I read about clearing the cache, but I could not get my head around the guides I read, so is there an idiots guide (I usually pretty good with tech stuff but not done much to do with phones etc)

Or any other suggestions. I use my phone for work so would be nice to get it working again without wiping it but most of the stuff should be back up anyway.

Thanks

Tom

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Yep that's what we wanted, unfortunately there's no ruu for your phone :(

If you've got warranty on the device I would send it in for repair.

If you don't have warranty you gonna need to unlock the bootloader to do anything with it. If your gonna do it go here www.htcdev.com register an account and go to the Unlock My Bootloader section of the site and follow the instructions to unlock :good:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tommy_G5:
Ok. I will do that.

So once the bootloader is unlocked, what is my solution? installing a different Ruu? Or installing a different Rom (or are they the same thing)

Thanks

Tom
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Once your Unlocked you can flash a Custom or Unbranded Stock Rom. To be able to use RUU's you will need to go s-off. As your on hboot 1.57 the only way to s-off is Sunshine app. But this costs $25 to use. So I would just go with flashing a Custom Recovery and ROM for the time being. :good:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaHiLzZ:
Unlocking the bootloader void warranty. If you have none, then proceed. In my opinion, your phone has suffered hardware failure and will not be recoverable, hence warranty.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tommy_G5:
Thanks

Thanks for the help guys. Turns out its still under warranty which is good news. I know with other custom roms you can use adb to retrive info off the device.

Any chance I can do the same, as most of the stuff is backed up except some photos ( last couple of months worth).

If not Ill get over it but just in case.

Thanks for your help so far.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dameware:
I ended up having to use CF auto-root, I was able to update cwm from within it.

After I tried rooting (didn't notice the guide I was using was 3 years old until it was too late) my phone got the "KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING" and "SET WARRANTY BIT: KERNEL" . And it would not ****ing start up. My phone was 4.4.4 and I was trying to flash some 4.2.2 or later stuff onto it I guess, it messed my phone up. The only one and I mean ONLY one that would work was the 4.2.2 auto-root.

I was on kies before all of it and now kies won't even read my phone. Any way I can get my phone back to normal now, and possibly try the rooting again? It's slow and laggy now, my SD card won't be read, and my wifi doesn't work. I'm quite miserable but at least my phone works.. I have root access now so maybe I can fix it from within the phone? I appreciate the help!

EDIT: I tried getting cyanogen rom onto it and it got all messed up again after that, wouldn't get past cyanogen loading animation so I had to figure out how to fix it again for another 3 hours -.-
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rlichtefeld:
Go to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4-tmobile/general/firmwares-official-mdl-mk2-nb4-t2816508

Download the NH7 or NK2 firmware (both are 4.4.4) and flash it using ODIN. Not sure why Kies isn't seeing your phone, it should, but ODIN should work. You may have to flash, pull battery, flash again, all without rebooting, for it to take.

This will get you back to stock. Then, if you want to root, get the CFAutoRoot for the phone, this will flash a non-stock recovery to give you root. This will give you the SEANDROID messages you were seeing. Use Triangle Away, if you want to get rid of them.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dameware:
It won't read it because my phone is now too old of a device for the program (2.2.2 or whatever). Thank you very much I'm trying all this right now, finally a firmware download that doesn't take 6 hours because of horrible servers!

I will update on if this works or not, I'm guessing it will :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Lopakas:
I am having a similar situation. I used CM installer to root my S4 then the screen went white and the Installer stopped working. I tried to reset but only got the same Enforcing and warrant messages and the CyanogenMod loading screen.

I am trying to get to recovery mode by doing power+home+volume up button. I got into there and seeing a menu of commands. What should I do now? Will factory reset get me back into original state or I need to install a zip?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dameware:
EDIT:

Done and done! It all worked out, thank you thank you!

Now to try cyanogen and my device will be back to beast mode.

Just do what he says and you should be fine; factory reset never did anything for me :/

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidBois:
Hi Everyone,

I'm currently on the last stable Cyanogen N5 release and it's been great but now playing up. Glitches here and there like the screen staying black when re-activating and increasing application crashes like Google app crashes. Been fine up to now though.

Cyanogen have not released a stable Lollipop ROM, I'm not sure if / when one will come out or if this is a general delay with all ROM's, so I'm looking for the most well regarded polished streamlined stable and secure ROM - with Privacy Protector being a big thing for me.

Any suggestions? I'm more after reliability than features but I do also REALLY like the Holo Glass theme so a theme engine is great - just to do a seek and destroy on that God awful white-washed background that some chump thought would be a great idea when you're looking at your phone at night and get blinded. WTF.

Anyway so nice to haves are a seek and destroy on all white-washed backgrounds, darker theme the better, stability, security and general reliability. Lollipop would be nice I guess but I'm not sure if that's really essential or not. And Google Apps because I like Google Now and all that.

And does anyone know how to eliminate the Google Hangouts white-washed background? Holo-Glass theme does a BEAUTIFUL job on the messenger app and some other apps but Hangouts is a stubborn one.

I would also like to completely reformat the phone, start from scratch and also set a new encryption key and password if possible. Really spring clean the thing..

Thanks!!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
You mean the post that says you're looking for reliability over features? That's stock. Don't be an ass when people are giving an honest recommendation. You can always flash stock KK and then use Xposed to add features and theme it. So again, it's an honest recommendation.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidBois:
And specifically Privacy Protector and ability to theme... I'm stunned why this is not a standard feature, at least Privacy Protector. Not fussed about the rest.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Xprivacy is an awesome Xposed module. Not sure what privacy protector is, but Xprivacy is very comprehensive. And Holo Themer lets you theme it any way you want.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidBois:
Privacy Protector prompts you when the likes of Facebook want your call history etc without asking you.. It annoys the hell out of me if for any reason I now get prompts about people I don't want in my life or are long gone or work related.. It's none of their business and they map it to flog off to whoever will pay for it with no cut and no consent. So I need a firewall around that garbage app. And other dodgy apps that ask for so many permissions it's staggering.

So Privacy Protector comes with Cyanogen and you can enable it by default for all new apps. Then you see all sorts of stuff come up that have nothing to do with apps and I'm surprised how often I click deny.

That and Holo Glass theme, especially on Messenger app (beautiful)..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _MetalHead_:
Well you can use App Ops to completely block apps from accessing anything. That's another Xposed module. Facebook literally can't do anything on any of my devices that I don't want it to. I'd honestly check out doing a stock install and just using Xposed modules. Not sure about Holo Glass but I'm sure you can find something to your liking. Or just pull the themed apk out of whatever ROM and install it on your new one. You don't have to rely on a custom ROM to give you everything, you can put your own together however you want. That's the beauty of Android.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DroidBois:
Stock plus theming plus privacy protection would be ideal... So I can just use a rooted phone and install those two things?
