[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hurrian:
That's a bummer OP - a non-factory unlock on newer Samsung phones involves writing another phone's hacked EFS data.

If the store didn't do a backup of your old modem data, your original IMEI is gone.

DO NOT attempt to use Qualcomm NV Tools to change your IMEI back to stock. (Guess how I wrecked my Note 3 the first time around!) - you need a valid IMEI Certificate to access 3G/LTE networks so you'll be stuck in 2G mode.

Samsung service centers have the tools to write any IMEI they want and generate the valid certificate, though it'll be expensive. I'd just advise OP to Odin to stock and wipe data, then root and disable ro.securestorage.support.

Having a wrong IMEI's not too bad, although a big no-no in terms of the GSM standard.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gattacus:
1) I think I have a valid certificate for my 'new' imei. Mobile data connections work fine and fast (H+). I prefer my original imei though.

2)why should I disable securestorage.support? It works fine enabled.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hurrian:
As part of the unlocking process, they wrote a new (rather, copied from another phone) IMEI to your Note 4. It'll work just fine. However, the IMEI may be shared with other phones, and may one day be blacklisted. When/If that happens, you'll need to write a new IMEI again.

I think I didn't come across right the last time - don't try to change your IMEI to your original one with Qualcomm NV Tools without a matching, proper certificate for it. It's a world of hurt.

As for ro.securestorage.support, it _might_ be needed for keeping WiFi passwords saved on reboot. Or not. IIRC, my rooted Note 3 needed it set for WiFi and S-Health to work right. I'm staying unrooted on my Note 4, so I don't know if you'll still have to do that.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gattacus:
I will go to a service center and ask if they can restore my imei but it doesn't seem to be urgent now. I just hope that a kies install of lollipop doesn't bring back the problems (unmounted efs).

WiFi passwords survive a reboot without the fix. So far so good.

Thanks for your help.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnxiousTuber:
is it possible to update my nexus 4 to lollipop directly from 4.2 jellybean while skipping all the other updates? If so, can you give me instructions on how to?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Not by ota or any other method that will preserve your data. You have to take each update in sequence. You could flash the factory image but you'll need to wipe the device.

4.2 is really old so I'd recommend you just backup your device and flash the factory image with fastboot.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnxiousTuber:
Can you kindly guide me on how to update my 4.2 jellybean nexus 4 to lollipop? (btw I someone can't get any ota updates)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
1. Google 15 second adb install xda. Set that up on your pc

2. Google nexus factory image. Download the image for the nexus 4 to your pc. It's a .tgz file. Extract it with 7-zip or winrar. In there you'll find a flash-all batch file

3. Boot into the bootloader with your device connected to your pc.

4. Double click the flash-all batch file

Backup first off your device as it will wipe it
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnxiousTuber:
Can you actually make a video to guide me through? Sorry. And one more question, nothing bad would happen if I skip all the other updates and update to lollipop from 4.2 right?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:

[ONE Themes and Apps] iamthedroid:
Hi Folks..I really like the in call screen and the way it handles accepting and rejecting calls. Does somebody can make a flashable zip or something so that we can have that interface in our One?

Please guide/help me Devs..[emoji4]

Here you go buddy... I would suggest this first... Very promising app (imo)

Moreover... Has exactly what you're asking for... :angel:

Try Google sometimes bro, it really helps... A LOT actually ;)

PLAYSTORE LINK

Dont forget to press "THANKS"
[ONE Themes and Apps] Robot Ross:
You also forgot to check if you can actually install it from the play store.

Which you can't. The play store link for the app will only allow you to install it on ASUS devices.
[ONE Themes and Apps] iamthedroid:
Unable to activate it

Thanks Guys!!

I got the .apk after some googling and able to install it . But there is no option to activate it.

Whenever I try to make a call, the default in-call screen is showing up.
[ONE Themes and Apps] ImbaWind:
From the Play Store I think you have to use the app's dialer to call then only u will get the call ui.

Just a wild guess tho
[ONE Themes and Apps] LiquidSolstice:
Maybe instead of telling people to Google things and then begging for thanks like that in such large font, you should actually read what you link to first before just posting it.

There is no "wild guess". You won't be able to run this app on your phone without serious hacking. It's not in the Play Store so you can easily install it on another device. It's in the Play Store so that Asus can directly update it as a system app through the store instead of forcing people to wait for OTA updates to update one specific app. HTC does this, Sony does this, Samsung does this. I'm not sure how you attained the "Recognized Contributor" status without knowing this? It's kind of a popular OEM feature of the Play Store these days.

You're not going to get that in-call screen unless a developer is seriously interested in it. It probably has all sorts of framework hooks that are specific to the stock Asus ROM. It's like asking a dev to port over a component of HTC Sense or Samsung Touchwiz over to AOSP. It's just not going to happen. I'd stop looking for it.

Additionally, it's pretty hard to modify the in-call screen like that with an app. The best you can really do are apps that overlay themselves on top of the dialer, which is really hack-y and not a clean way of doing it.
[ONE Themes and Apps] ImbaWind:
Wow you are so professional, hat off to you.

Im kind of "outdated" in development these day tho D:
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g3g4:
Hi,

My LG G3 D850 battery is going down pretty fast and always gets about only 18 hrs of standby time (less than 4 hrs on screen) no matter what I did. In such a case, is the extended battery a good option? I already found a mpj 6000 mah extended battery, or ss something wrong with my stock battery? I don't really know much about the smart phones, but I really like this phone so if anyone could help me fix the battery issue thank you so much!
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JSing:
What's your brightness? I'm getting about the same 18hrs too with my battery. I usually have the brightness on 50%.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
4hrs on screen is pretty normal depending on your usage. That being said, look into Greenify. It should help a bit.

Remember that this is a 4k display, which is harder on the battery. Some people make it to 6hrs+ screen time with mods, you can look into that if you'd like but being new to smart phones, it's not the first thing I'd suggest.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pfeffernuss:

I'm compiling according to the priority I said, until tomorrow end I think it will be up, if it runs with no problems on D802, other variants should be fine as well. I need to fix the back button when IME is open and the changelog is not being pushed to the device yet. I think I need a

[G2 Android Development] biert87:
Hi!

With the newest d802 telephony client crashes. I'll try to get a logcat later after work.

Symptom: somebody who tries to call me did get a free sound followed with "temp. unavailable", on my side the client just crashes. I even had it crash after a call.

It still has sound distortion problem (that all lp roms have?) too.

And I was unable to install latest viper4android, it crashes on boot (lp variant of course).
[G2 Android Development] GalaticStryder:
Telephony I haven't seen, thanks for pointing. Viper4Android has been added as prebuilt.

Just gimme the name of the crashing package/module after work, I'll disable strict aliasing for it, maybe this has broken some code in the telephony, very easy to fix tough.
[G2 Android Development] condudad:
Just finished flashing this and first impressions are WOW :good:

Will report back if I find any bugs or glitches ;)

Same problem as biert87 here too, incoming call → Unfortunately, Phone has stopped

But the calling end receives a normal beep as if it was ringing on the other side.

Grabbed a catlog when recreating the problem, attached. (Syslog → Unfortunately, Android System has stopped :confused:)

On another note: There is no default messaging app in this rom so if you are flashing a small gapps package say nano or pico (and have two step verification on for your google account) you won't be able to add your account without first disabling two step verification :)

noob needs opinion 3.2.1, on upgrading acer a500

(Sorry for invading your thread, but I did not know where to start asking.)

Hi I feel like I am out of luck. If that is the case, please just treat the backstory as a bit of entertainment.

To upgrade the Acer A500 Iconia Tablet from Honeycomb 3.2.1(oem) to something more current, perhaps IceCreamSandwich 4.0, can I download a file to a microSD card, plug the card into

the tablet, and get the upgrade? I read somewhere about a file called update.zip. Is the process just this simple/easy?

BackStory:

This tablet is hard to love as it doesn't come with any sample media, or even any file-manager. Once in a while it crashes to the home screen. But another feature I really want is to take screenshots. That is why I want to root the A500.(Problem0:) Recently, the lockscreen failed. (My password is made of letters, whereas the A500 would no longer display the virtual keyboard, only the virtual numeric keypad!). therefore I did a cleanWipe reset of the tablet. 'Android version 3.2.1; Build number Acer_A500_7.014.02_COM_GEN2'. Problem0 fixed.) Problem1: I am a newbie w poor computer skills. Problem2: I am a newbie w poor computer skills.

I register the tablet w Acer, and then install ICS A500 Update from Google Play Store. (ICONIA TAB Update Enhancement, Acer Inc. - March 18, 2012: Application_Acer_2.2. 120307.3_A32H_A.apk)

Next I go to settings... and click on Acer System Update "check now" button. But the only message popup is 'Network coverage is currently poor. Please move to a location with better coverage to continue.' Funny as the wifi indicator indicates the signal as very strong. I try signing into Acer.com support, but it says 'your email (id) is not recognized'.

Questions:

1. Should I upgrade to something newer than the built-in Android 3.2.1? and if so which version?

2. Should I root? (How do I root? Is a PC required to do this?)

(3. Do I first need to get Acer software/drivers for PC?)

(4. What is a good app to use to backup Acer A500 to PC?)

Thank you for your attention; a frustrated A500 user,

J.

Why not just google, cauuse you would have found an answer in a half a second? The only real way to do it is to root your device then find the direction on changing the default launcher, but their is a substitute called AFTV Launcher Helper that Basically does the same thing. Just install it and you can pic any app as your default lancher. When you boot up yo Fire TV will strt the app you choose, and when you hit the home button it will go to the app you choose, and you do not need to be rooted.

Try Auto Hide Soft Keys APP which worked fine for me on rooted jellybean. Kodi/XBMC on the Lollipop (CM12) ROM works without this app because of immersive mode which hides the navbar, so I would suggest when you get your MOJO to switch to that ROM.
