If you don't want to pay for an app, then at least give the devs enough respect to look through the ROMs currently available to find one that works for you. There are several in the forum that have the feature you want already baked in.

I have an N-910F and managed to flash the auto-root for the N-915 - The touchscreen is now weirdly offset and doesn't properly respond to touch input - even in recovery. Have I fried the touchscreen like you can on older models, or do I just need to revert something software based. I checked with some touchscreen diagnostic software and it definitely does respond... just in the wrong place. Ideas=

re-flash a N910F kernel
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] happytomato:
Tried it! No change. It's weird because the screen has no offset in the corner and it gets worse and worse as you get further from the top left corner.... can it be a DPI issue or something?

I read somewhere if you flash other kernel you will burn the digitalizer lf the svreen, the only thibk you left if flash stock firmware via odin, if that doesnt work, send it to repair

hey, it happened to me last month on my tab s, but not flashing wrong things like you....just flash back the right recovery in odin should work normally, if you were unlucky to fix it you have to flash complete stock rom and root again

These take forever to download, if they will at all. Anyone have any better mirrors. I'm kinda grasping at straws. Will kies work to restore a tabpro to stock if it has a custom recovery? Does kies need one of these files to work, or will it download the file it needs?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Kies should work as long you are running a stock based rom. It should download the stuff it needs and should work regardless of custom recovery.

It shouldn't take forever to download on the sammobile website :) I have a 2mpbs download and it took me atleast 10 hours to download.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badgerbash:
So I can successfully install superuser v2.40, but it's not working with one of my apps (puzzle and dragons). I have been told me to downgrade to 2.25, but I have been having issues.

The problem is no matter what, when I flash 2.25 it gets stuck in a bootloop. Flashing it on stock, and even flashing it over 2.40, and flashing it over 2.40 when clicking the replace button in the superuser app. What am I doing wrong? Is 2.25 not compatible with my phone?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] experience7:
Hi :) First of all, if you have any compatibility issues with apps try upgrading them rather than downgrading. In this case SuperSU v2.46 would be the current version. Anyways, I just googled a bit and that's not the problem at all.

The developers of the game implemented a function which doesn't let the app start on a rooted device. It will check if you have Superuser-rights and automatically close the game at the splash screen if so.

So actually what you need is something that "hides" your root. There are several methods. I heard about Xposed modules like RootCloak for example. I even read on the xda News page that it's Lollipop compatible :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badgerbash:
Thanks for the reply. On the game's forums, I have been told that masking does not work (if you look at xposed rootcloak it says it's not compatible). And some users have been able to get the game to work with certain versions. I am on the latest binaries and it still doesn't work. The only way to get it to work is to unsinstall SuperSU and reflash it every time I want to play.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] experience7:
On some forums I've read that SuperSU has got a function to "hide" or "temporarily disable" it... Take a look at the app. Hopefully this feature hasn't been removed and maybe that's enough for you to get the game working. It's not a perfect solution but at least you don't have to uninstall / reflash every time. Let me know if it worked :)

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bonta768:
Greets, I am a long time XDA reader with deep rooting and flashing experience (phones dude, phones) from Samsung Galaxy S I9000 and Sony Xperia Z (yuga).

I have here a LG G2 D802T that I have no experience on, and the touch screen don't work due to dropping and screen cracking.

The phone powers on and off OK, boots fine. The screen works fine, but no response when touched.

I need to:-

- find out how to boot to recovery

- enable developer access

- enable adb access

- enable k.janku1's awesome tool http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2786395

So I need to install a recovery and/or the correct stock compatible kernel (4.4.2) i think. adb access in recovery would be great for a start.

I already have LGUnitedMobileDriver_S4981MAN38AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.8.1.exe installed on my Windows, but no response from phone when I plug in USB cable. I also speak Linux.

I am just starting to read the G2 forums, but id appreciate any tips and pointers from you fine folks.

Hi, Kies shows i got 5.0 update but it wont download it, it gets error like unable to download unknown error etc..

In phote there is no OTA update it says i got latest.

I wonder if I maualy download that firmware and flash it with odin, will that triger knoxx flag?

and after that do I loose OTA?

thx
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qubbus:
Odin will not trip knox flag.

If you wll not flash custom recovery/kernel via odin then knox flag stays untripped.

Best solutuion for you is download firmware for your phone manualy and flash via odin.

But think twice about lollipop 5.0. Do a small research and check is it worth for you.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koragg97:
YES, I tried 5.0 and while it looks better than KK, most mods here won't work on it (yet), also Xposed isn't supported (yet). So might as well just wait until more stuff start being compatible with it and then switch to Lollipop :)

[Q] How do I fix?? Hit "Install Update" on my VS980 LG G2 with broken recovery...

Alright this is kind of a tough one and I know I screwed up bad... Early last year I rooted my G2 for Verizon and sometime a couple months ago I attempted to flash the newest TWRP, except it was for the WRONG model D800 instead. So I feel pretty damn stupid for not making sure I downloaded and flashed the exact right recovery and I just need help flashing the stock image back, if possible. Please only comment if you can help me or possibly know a solution to this without me paying a heavty early upgrade or deactivation fee. How can I either manually recover a backup I've made on my PC or flash everything back to factory?? Thanks in advance for curing my incompetence, probably never gonna root again.:(:confused:

The following are the messages in the recovery prompt...:

[800] Fastboot mode started

[Blu Studio 5] ashwad:
I have seen roots posted for the Y530Q but not the Y534Q. I tried Framaroot (1.9.1). It only gives the Aragon option and fails. Kingroot both offline (APK) and via PC fails. The RootGenius method posted here, also fails.

Kingo Root worked for me:

Uninstall any other methods you have tried.

Install the adb-driver-installer here.

Install and run Kingo.

Check your Superuser app after the root is successful. You may need to allow it to update. If so, choose the

normal

method.

I hope this helps.

CWM-based recovery for this phone?

I have the blu studio 5.5 (D610a model), and was able to find a root and a touch based ported version of CWM that worked great for nandroid backups and flashing unsigned/custom gapps.zips. I have recently upgraded to this phone (5.0 HD LTE with the quoted firmware version).. Is there a custom recovery or anything that I can use to do a full backup in case I have any issues flashing ROMs that I'd like to test? I've got a buddy that I'd like to test a lollipop port for..

[Blu Studio 5] XwpisONOMA:
Hi all! I am a recent convert to Android from WP so I have just purchased a blu studio 5.0 hd lte Y534Q which immediately was adviced to root. I understand I have to install the adb driver first on my desktop PC and then install and run Kingo but as a 1st time user I am kinda lost. Can you please help me with the following questions?

#1. The adb driver version should match my PC's OS, right? In my case Windows 7 x64.

#2. The Kingo is installed on the phone or on the PC therefore I d/l the windows or the android version?

#3. At the Kingo website there are 3 different products available for d/l. Which one should I select:

i) The android root for windows or ii) APK root for Android or iii) Kingo Superuser/SuperSU

Thank you very much!

Also, after a successful root do I have to take any special precautions? Do I avoid OTG updates, what about when (if) Lolipop become available for this phone?

I used the method in this thread to root my 5.0 HD LTE, so thank you!

Unfortunately, I did a factory reset and seem to have bricked it :(

Ita giving an error during the boot process, I dont have it in front of me at the moment but something about mount/sdcard0. I think it would be fine if I could find the stock firmware somewhere to flash, but I seem to have purchased the only Blu phone in the world that I can't find anything for lol.

Any ideas? Or someone have a stock rom I could try flashing?

Welcome to my camera comparison!

2/15/2015 - Updated to include the iPhone 4s, for people who were offended by comparing the flagship killer to a flagship which is newer and twice as expensive (this, despite all flagships being more expensive than the OPO, and the Nexus 6 for example—which uses the same sensor as the OPO—being both newer and more expensive).

Landscape

Great Lighting

Indoors Person

Indoors Fine Detail

All pictures were taken at highest quality with autofocus. For each scenario I provided a gallery of 8 shots:

- OPO AUTO = OnePlus One, stock camera, Auto mode

- OPO HDR = OnePlus One, stock camera, HDR mode

- OPO GOOGLE AUTO = OnePlus One, Google Camera, HDR disabled

- OPO GOOGLE HDR = OnePlus One, Google Camera, HDR enabled

- 6PLUS AUTO = iPhone 6 Plus, stock camera, HDR disabled

- 6PLUS HDR = iPhone 6 Plus, stock camera, HDR enabled

- NEXUS5 AUTO = Nexus 5, stock camera, HDR disabled

- NEXUS5 HDR = Nexus 5, stock camera, HDR enabled

My thoughts:

If I had to choose one, it would be the iPhone 6 Plus without a second thought. It opens in one second, has OIS and catpures an HDR shot in a split second, captures more low light detail in either mode regardless of overall lighting, and in general it captures fine detail better than the OPO (check the keyboard in the Indoor Fine Detail gallery) or, at worst, the same albiet with better color reproduction. Between the OPO with either camera app, and the Nexus 5, I find the Nexus 5 to be preferable because it has OIS which means I'm able to get more fine detail than the OPO despite the OPO's higher resolution, and further the Nexus 5 is able to pull more detail out of the highlights and shadows of shots that have extremes of both (like a foreground subject backlit by a bright sky). Overall the OPO camera is incredibly disappointing; It takes forever to take HDR shots or Clear Image shots, and I can't get consistently good shots in any mode with any camera app. What's more, the only time OPO doesn't seem like it has an 8MP shooter is in Clear Image mode, which is unfortunately plagued by being as inconsistent as any other shot by the OPO in any other mode with any other camera app. In dim-ish to low light, you'd be better off drawing a picture by hand than trying to capture anything useful with the OPO.
[ONE General] Heisenberg:
I've taken some really fantastic shots with the stock camera on my OPO, I honestly believe it's just a matter of knowing how to use it and playing to its strengths.

Transmitted via Bacon
[ONE General] Renosh:
These camera shootouts and other comparisons have always been useless IMO. The OPO has consistently taken great photos for me; knowing the angles the camera needs to capture more light and using some common sense about where to take photos goes a long way. If being able to snap a photo anywhere is a must for you buy a DSLR
[ONE General] .psd:
It's just an objective demonstration and comparison. If it's of no use to you then who am I to complain. It is what it is.
[ONE General] .psd:
I'm not here to talk **** about the OPO camera, even if I do think it's terrible. I did the comparison for myself (and decided to publish it after the fact) precisely because I think it's terrible. So to me it's curious how people are happy to defend it. For example, your statement is the opposite of what a marketing team would want to say, and I'm sure it's the opposite of what smartphone camera software engineers aim for. These are intended to be point and shoot, not for people who "just know how." Per OPO's own ad, it's supposed to take "astounding shots, any time, day or night, without suffering the problems of other cameras." Without a doubt the nighttime performance of this camera is horrendous, but even it's automatic performance falls short. The fact that you have to wrestle it into submission even during reasonable conditions is a testament to how far they missed the mark with this.
[ONE General] Renosh:
You were claiming you're making an objective comparison yet you were biased from the beginning. Nice try though. You probably half assed your way to get the results you expected.

Using marketing ads to form an opinion is dumb, they'll all exaggerate. Use the camera figure out it's strengths and enjoy it. I don't have the luxury of a secondary phone. Came from a G2 though and it took similarly good photos. Still had to figure out angles and right conditions to take shots, as well as a steady hand helps. Only camera that I've had that was downright abysmal was the Nexus 4.

Next time you wanna compare phones do it for yourself to make a choice on which phone to keep or whatever reason you did it. There are tons of sites like gsmarena that do these comparisons. Once you start comparing anything between phones instead of liking something for what it can offer, it never ends
[ONE General] Heisenberg:
I'm not trying to defend it, it has flaws, like any smartphone camera does. For example, Samsung shots are over-saturated and look awful. Nexus 5 HDR shots are too aggressive and look ridiculous (but then again, 99% of smartphone users have no idea what HDR is, how it works, how to use it, or even when you should be using it, they just use it because they think the result "looks cool"). Like the other fella said, forget whatever the marketing guys say because they're paid uber dollars to make you want something. They exaggerate, they lie.

Thanks for your comparison. To really compare the picures, I think you guys should download them and watch them on your PC.

I will do so later, so I won't comment on them now.

Speedwise I can say, the opo camera from latest OTA opens in one second too.

I made a small collection of pictures where I think they are caught really good. These are by far not the best motives, just some examples to show what

can be achieved with a smartphone camera. All taken with the standard camera app, some are auto, some hdr, I think it is visible which are which...

Would you call them incredibly disappointing?

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/72qofxzgo2d9tjg/AAARPpNIsAQFkFPFAK3k87joa?dl=0

and no, these were not the best shots taken out of 20 made, but basically the only ones I took in these situations, especially at the Harry Potter expo which was really crowded!

Download them, as they are badly compressed when opened through dropbox online.
[ONE General] podspi:
I can't believe people are so down on this comparison just because of its conclusions. Especially because I agree 100%. Nexus 5 camera was better than the OPO's, which is a huge disappointment to me.

All this nonsense about finding the right angle, etc, is just that - nonsense. Yes, it is good to know the limitations of the hardware and do your best to overcome them, but that doesn't mean the limitations are OK and you shouldn't acknowledge them/"stop complaining".

Both on XDA and the OPO forums there is always a huge amount of backlash against any criticism of this phone and the company, and I think that's really terrible. The OPO is a good phone but it isn't perfect and it and the company are certainly not above reproach.

The OPO camera subsystem in particular was poorly designed. 13mp with 6 lenses sounds great, but without OIS it falls down against camera's whose spec sheets don't read as nice.
[ONE General] the Doctor:
The iPhone 6+ should be expected to take better pictures, being a generation newer and 2.5x the cost. This isn't exactly a level playing field.
[ONE General] .psd:
The comparison is objective. My opinion doesn't bear on the actual content of any given picture, and the fact that reviewers tend to agree with my assessment is just coincidence. I went in open minded because, unlike you, I do have the luxury of having other devices. Here's the thing: almost any camera can take a good shot "sometimes" or "if you use it right", but the reason marketers don't say "this is an incredible smartphone camera sometimes, if you use it right" is because that's basically the same as saying, "as a flagship killer smartphone camera, this misses the mark."

What if the iPhone 4s on iOS 6—cheaper and older by far—performs better, or at least favorably? What would you say then? And what about the Nexus 5—older and the same price (cheaper used)?

Anyways, I should have clarified in the OP that I did this comparison for myself because I own the phones and it seemed the OPO camera was terrible compared to my memory of the Nexus 5, so I wanted to test my memory against reality. I only published it after the fact in case others might find value in it.
[ONE General] .psd:
Appreciated, but of course we don't know how other cameras would have performed...
