Is-Samsung-FINALLY-killing-bloatware-Galaxy-S6-set-abandon-preinstalled-software-bid-compete-Apple

Looking at the article, they seem to be dumping their own crap and installing Microshafts crap instead!

I wonder if they will allow their own crap too be uninstalled on future updates to older devices?
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowLea:
They're offering microsoft apps in the same way they're offering Hancom on the Note devices. Downloadable and with a free subscription.

The fact that they're dropping bloatware and making it installable via the appstore has been known since October last year.

As for new updates, that hasn't been made known yet.
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrashTestDroid:
Don't be quick to believe about the bloatware. Samsung has a long and storied past full of bloated crapware and it infests all their lineup, nothing is spared. Odds are it'll be overloaded with junk apps, KNOX, and anything else Sammy can use against its users. Samsung hates us you know.

[Verizon LG G3] kevman8396:
I just wanted to find out if everyone is going to do the Lollipop update when it finally does become available for Verizon or not. Or will you just keep what version you have or stay rooted? I have been hearing that the AT&T update does not really improve anything and it does not look much different.
[Verizon LG G3] eraursls1984:
Nope. I have my phone setup perfectly. I'm on 10B, haven't even updated to 12B/C/D or whatever. I would update to deodexed 12B if there was good enough reason, but I definitely wouldn't jump to lollypop. I won't use lollypop until my next phone (G4 once it gains root).
[Verizon LG G3] tech_head:
I will once there is a stock based ROM to flash.
[Verizon LG G3] blap017:
I agree I will once a Dev makes a ROM of it that way we can jump back if we don't like it or there are problems
[Verizon LG G3] IaKnightHawke:
According to Drippler, LG3 users in the US on ATT system are not being able to defer the Lollipop update. If they select no to the update, it updates the phone anyway. Just putting this out FYI and confirmation.
[Verizon LG G3] theistus:
Shouldn't be a problem if you've frozen or removed the updater like a good boy should ?
[Verizon LG G3] destes37:
Coming from the Moto X 2014, I enjoyed 3 months of Lollipop unrooted. On a Verizon phone at that, go figure. I'm hoping to take 5.0 or whatever version is served up to us asap... :D

Battery life seems to have taken a bit of a plunge in LP according to this

[Verizon LG G3] PhoneBill:
What is the updater file name? I run a custom Rom but want to make sure it isn't enabled. I searched the system files for anything with OTA in it and didn't see it. But I have had to TOT back to 10B twice since I bumped the phone and don't want to be vulnerable if I should ever have to do it again. Thanks.
[Verizon LG G3] Schaweet:
On VZW you should freeze the following, not sure on a custom rom

com.lge.lgfota.permission

System Updates
[Verizon LG G3] guitrsol93:
It depends on whether or not LP fixes the audio hiss issue. My phone is my portable mp3 player, and although I love having root, it's gotta be a good phone and good music player first. So frustrating hearing hiss while listening to music... I'd lose root in a heartbeat if they fixed this.
[Verizon LG G3] jfriend33:
Lollipop is super sweet... Kinda hard not to want it on my g3 after using on my Nexus 7 2013. I mean basically with me running a ROM I have a Nexus 6 with removable battery and expandable memory lol...

I am a little disappointed in Stock lollipop on the other carriers. I do like the new notifications, task mgr, users, etc but I just like the status bar toggles as they are in Stock lollipop...

Luckily xposed is now slowly creeping into lollipop so I'd say in a month life will be sweet!

Although, real talk, if the g4 comes out with 4gbs of ram (yes I know it's not needed but I want it for future proofing) I'd probably sell my g3. But honestly lol I really do love my g3, g watch, etc and am very content hanging on!
[Verizon LG G3] DigitalMD:
some people still use Polaroid instant cameras.

I will update at the first second available.
[Verizon LG G3] iBolski:
Depends on if I can keep root across the OTA. I've been able to keep it from 10b to 12b, we'll see what the reports are out there. If I can keep it, and if I can downgrade back to 10b if needs be, then I'll probably try it out.

LP on my Nexus 7 (2012) has been hit or miss. After it's been up and running for awhile, my Nexus 7 will just freeze and I'll have to reboot. I don't have that issue with KK, especially on my G3. The G3 currently runs smooth and I rarely reboot it, ever. And it runs just fine.

So, I'll have to wait and see how things go with LP on this device. As it is, there is a memory leak in the latest version and no word yet from Google on if/when that gets fixed.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DylonSaaied:
Hi guys,

I had installed TWRP recovery and I pressed fix file permissions and when I rebooted it messed up my phone, deleting Google Now Launcher, and I cant open playstore anymore, I tried flashing the stock android 5.0.1 recovery again but that didn't work, should I flash android 5.0.1 again but without the ''-w'' parameter?

Thanks in advance :D

EDIT: I lost more apps like Whatsapp, Chrome is also gone why did I press that button for gods sake....
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Yeah, don't use fix permissions anymore. Flash the 5.0.1 system.img with fastboot.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DylonSaaied:
I tried, I also flashed the full Android 5.0.1 image, nothing worked... Ofcourse without the -w parameter to not wipe my data.

I am so desperate, there is also a problem, my Google account is also gone which is why I cant access Play Store.

I found this out by using logcat to see what happens when I click on the app.

EDIT: I think I fixed it sort of, I installed Google Play Services from an apk and then I could open Play Store again and login to my google account. :D now only a few widgets are gone but that can be fixed.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Themes and Apps] ady043:
Hi,

I have the last cm12 lollipop on my s4 mini. Everything it's working, but i have a problem with audio fx and the equalizer. I listen music with Spotify and Beats headphones and when i turn on the equalizer, it doesn't work. Don't work bass and surround options. Now i flash KK Stock Rom and the equalizer working 100% with bass. I tried to disactive Aufio FX from CM12 but i recived everytime "Audio FX has arrested". The same problem i had when i installed other equalizers, but without resolving this problem.

There are solutions? Can someone help me?

(Sorry for English error, i'm not from UK or USA states).
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Themes and Apps] SORAnoDYStopia:
What Beats do you use? What nightly are you on? Or are you using an unofficial build?

Sora.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Themes and Apps] ady043:
I use Beats Solo 2 but i tried with normal headphones too.

Yes, it's a nightly, i don't think last updates the equalizer's problem is adjusted.

Can you help me? Because the CM12 are perfect! Thank you

Follow the steps, install all 3 files. It should work fine.

Once you install and reboot, do the settings in viper app once and forget. Do not open the app again otherwise it will ask for update.

Great sound quality by the way against audio fx.

remove audio fx (or any other sound driver) before installing any of those files.

Cheers
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Themes and Apps] ady043:
I tried but there aren't changes, only more bass but not as in 4.4 KK. Thank you.

I flash CM12 and root, uninstall Audio FX and flashed the 3 zip files. I open the app and istalled drivers, but it doesn't work, so i enabled every options what i found.

When i listen to music with stock music there aren't any problems but viper doesn't work. When i use Spotify the same results, viper doesn't help and opening the app the music stop playing.

Thanks

[Xposed General] bubbleguuum:
In the initZygote() of a module, it is not possible anymore to access files under /data/data/<module package>.

For example, my module needs to load a native library in /data/data/<module package>/lib, with System.loadLibrary().

It fails with an error, as no file is visible under /data/data/<module package>.

Is there any workaround ? Is it possible to restore the pre-Lollipop behavior in Xposed ?
[Xposed General] defim:
The comment for

SELinuxHelper.getAppDataFileService()

[Xposed General] bubbleguuum:
Thanks for the pointer.

I could fix my problem trivially by moving some code from initZygote() to handleLoadPackage() which has permissions to access its own data directory.

Got the ota and everything went well but I still only show 4g. Any ideas?
[LG Optimus G Pro] CapnPez:
Are you running xposed by any chance? I had the same issue a couple weeks ago, but it seemed the problem was due to the smart radio feature in the xposed module gravity box.

Otherwise, perhaps you have some other kind of smart radio working that you weren't aware of.

I'm not sure if I actually got to the root of the problem, but it's working for me now.

I'm not too familiar with those modules, but to check, you could just disable those one by one and see if lte comes back.

Alternatively, the problem could be with your SIM card. If you have someone else with an att phone, you could swap the SIM with them and determine if it's your phone or the card.

Hi,

Can anyone help me, please?

Let me show you a brief history:

My friend bouht a second hand XDA IIi. In that PDA, it has a keyboard like Phone Pad or ... I can rename files in my native language by using that keyboard layout.

My problem is that I want to use that keyboard too but I don't know where to get it. I found a website in About section but when I follow that link I can't find that keyboard software. I think it was sold somewhere in my country.

How can I use that keyboard? I found 2 dll files in Windows directory that named similar to the keyboard name but when I copy those files into windows directory like in my friend phone; it doesn't work.

Can anyone give me some advice? Do I need to register those 2 dll files?

Hi folks,

Newbie here and just bought a Note 3 Neo N7505.

It came 4.4.2 out of the box.

I would like some advice on below questions:

(a) How to get a full back up of the original OS (4.4.2) before rooting the device? I guess this is called Nandroid or something. Can this be done without rooting? Is it same as downloading the specific OS from sammob*le.com?

(b) Once I root the device is it possible to receive OTA firmware upgrades in the future if I temporarily unroot it? (let's say 4.4.4 or Android L is released)

Hey guys,

Was a little schwasted last night and decided to play around with my phone. I was trying to root it and install a custom ROM, but I just ended up bricking the damn thing instead.

Needless to say, I will not be trying to root this thing anymore but please help me fix it by tonight.

I've been up all night trying to fix it, and I've done pretty much everything possible and it's starting to get very frustrating. I've downloaded the stock ROM .zip file and loaded it into Odin, where it installs successfully. Then I boot it into recovery mode, do a factory reset, wipe the cache, and reboot. No difference - the Custom Bootloader still shows up and then it displays a few seconds of the Samsung animation before freezing and eventually turning black (blue light on top left is still on though).
