[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dpwguenther:
At the moment I have not seen a flashable zip for nk2, Im on official cm12 android 5.0.2 and just updated my modem, here is what I did, I download the full firmware , extracted it with winrar, and used Odin 3.0.7 to flash the modem.bin and non-hlos.bin
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] gurnted:
Correct me if something has changed; but doesn't flashing an up to date non-hlos still randomly cause complete signal drop on devices that are not running the updated bootloader that came with 4.4?

Or rather; at least until securestorage is disabled in build.prop

Also, you will most likely have to flash them 2x with odin.

First time uncheck the auto restart box, and manually power cycle back into download mode.

Second time leave the auto restart checked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Ghoster013:
So perhaps it would be better to odin the lastest official t-mobile ROM back onto the phone to update all the internals and the bootloader etc, then root again and re-install my preferred custom ROM of choice?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
You should only flash NON-HLOS is you have the same bootloader as the NON-HLOS you are flashing

That would be the best option, but if you decide to only flash the modem, only flash modem.bin
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dpwguenther:
I flashes the non-hlos.bin on a different bootloader with no issues at all, that's the only reason why I suggested it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] XDAUserWork:
Why does it matter which version of Odin we have to use? Specifically, why Odin 3.07?

Additionally, if modem.bin refers to the modem for the Samsung Galaxy S4 then what does non-hlos.bin refer to?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dpwguenther:
Well, I say use v3.0.7 because that is the version that worked for me, your results may vary, also some say that the non-hlos.bin refers to a separate modem for lte only, others say it refers to the WiFi driver, now, you don't have to flash it of you feel it has no benefit to you, I only did because this phone is the first one I've used that has the non-hlos.bin,, so I flashed it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] XDAUserWork:
Since it is possible to flash the modem (via modem.bin) as well as flashing the lte modem/or WiFi driver (via non-hlos.bin) - then is it also possible to flash the bootloader itself on the Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919) if it is running Android 4.4.4 (M919UVUFNK2)? If so, how would someone accomplish doing this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dpwguenther:
I'm pretty sure I can make a flashable zip for you, but in all honesty, I wouldn't recommend doing that, to reduce the risk of a brick and to keep money in your pocket, I would do a full backup and flash the latest stock update to update the bootloader
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] XDAUserWork:
Let me ask this: if it's possible to make a flashable zip to flash the bootloader to a higher version (like the bootloader from Android 4.4.4-M919UVUFNK2) then is it also possible to make a flashable zip to flash the bootloader to a lower version (like the bootloader from Android 4.2.2.-M919UVUAMDL)?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] jrodbrown58:
I believe I'm in the same boat. I tried out AICP ROM 5.0.2 and my signal dropped out most of the entire time and I could rarely send or receive calls/texts when it showed that I had signal. I now have restored my backup of AICP 4.4.4 and so far it seems to be working correctly. But a flashable zip would be highly appreciated if someone could do it. I would try myself but internet is extremely slow and I'm afraid I would make a mistake and brick phones other than mine.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dpwguenther:
As I remember it from my GS3 days, once a Knox bootloader is implemented (I.e 4.3+) you can not downgrade to a non Knox bootloader (I.e 4.2-)

Ive also been doing some research on the flashable zip for bootloader, and it seems very difficult for me to make one

[Android Studio] barryholroyd:
I am exploring Live Templates and thought I'd write an extremely simple one that just capitalizes a word. There's even a capitalize() function for me to use :).

However, I haven't been able to get this working. I have the following working at this point.

Template text:

$SELECTION$ "=>" $CAPTEXT$

Edit Variables

Name: CAPTEXT

Expression: capitalize(SELECTION)
​

​

When I run the above on "hello" I get this output, as expected:

hello "=>" Hello​

The problem is that, if I remove $SELECTION$ from the Template text, it is no longer provided as "surround" Live Template. (i.e., Ctrl+Alt+T doesn't list it). It seems to be the case that surround Live Templates are defined by the presence of $SELECTION$ in the Template text.

Is that the case? Is there a way to provide selected text as a parameter to a function without having to output it as part of the "Template text"? Is there a way to simply capitalize a word :)?

Thanks,

Barry
[LG G Watch] xiton:
I've been messing with this watch too much, flashing Gohma, etc, and I'd like to return to stock. Basically the equivalent of a totally clean wipe on a phone and flashing the newest factory image.

Gohma has a return to stock batch file but it doesn't seem to work well, as my watch is buggy now.

Is there a way to really return this thing to an actual completely wiped stock state?

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RyanThaDude:
So I decided to try the upgrade to Lollipop OA8. Immediately batter life went from over a day per charge to barely 10 hours. Disabled S Health and bloat, even completely wiped device & SD card memory without any success. I even flashed non-rooted OA8 doing a full factory reset without any success in regards to battery life.

So I downgraded back to NK2, which I was phenomenal battery life. Not this time. I'm still receiving the same horrific battery life I was receiving with OA8. Android System is the culprit in both OA8 and NK2. I just recently reflashed NK2 with a full wipe and did not reinstall any apps or updates and I'm still seeing the poor battery life. I'm currently just over 4 hours on battery (from full charge) and already at 49% with Android System using nearly 60%. I'm completely stock with no root or apps!

Has anyone else have this issue? I can't see the OA8 update physically screwing up the device, but I suppose anything's possible when VZW gets their hands on things. I thought about wiping and contacting VZW to send me a replacement but I can only assume it would be shipped with OA8, which I do not want!

Suggestions?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RyanThaDude:
Nobody else having this problem?

I just don't get it. My wife's S5, which was never upgraded to Lollipop has phenomenal battery life, much like mine prior to trying OA8. She's currently at 31% at nearly 20 hours and 2.5 hours screen time. I'm at 29% with just under 7 hours and 1.5 hours screen time. I'm refusing to let her upgrade her S5 for this very reason! What could cause this? I'm really tired of being tethered to a charger. I have a second battery and it's doing it on that one as well. Nothing really stands out other than "Android System" using more battery than "Screen", which was always the case, although my wife's phone shows the same.

Verizon won't even swap the phone because they call it a software issue and a new phone will do the same thing (what?), plus their new phones, according to the CSR the new phones already have OA8 installed.

I'll tell you what, I'm done with Samsung. I wish I could say I would be done with VZW also, but they're really the only one in the area with decent coverage. AT&T is close and actually has more tower saturation, but signals stink. TMO has barely any service and no LTE, and Sprint just sucks even on a full signal.

EDIT: I tried a last-ditch effort and so far it's paying off. I decided to ODIN all the way back to NCG and let the phone update to NK2. Then rooted and installed my apps. So far so good. Overnight, even with nearly 2 hours of screen time battery is at 55% and just over 10 hours of battery life. I call that a success!

So, if you're having the same issue, be sure to ODIN all the way back to the original NCG and let the phone update to NK2 (or NK7 if you wish). The NCG ODIN .tar.md5 file contains files that are not included with the later ODIN files which also completely wipes the phone. Customize, root & install files once you reach NK2 or NK7.

No problem. In the original post in the above link, skip down to "notes #5". This will tell you how to start from an unrooted phone.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowcontrol:
A few quick questions.

After flashing NCG in Odin, should we flash the NCG Kernel? What about the NCG modem?

After flashing NCG, do we need to have the phone fully boot before we go back to Odin to flash NK2 or can we just stay in Odin after flashing NCG and immediately flash NK2? Same questions - what about the NCG/NK2 Kernel and modems?

Oh. Assuming I get him onto NCG and rooted, at what point do you lose root? Is that during the Odin flash or when doing a full wipe in Safestrap? Sorry, dumb question - it has just been awhile since I've done these similar steps for my own S4.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tulsadiver:
What firmware do you want to end up on? If you do not yet have root, then In Odin you flash the NCG file located in the notes #5 as indicated above. Your phone will reboot and you will be on NCG. You should have towelroot already downloaded onto your ext SD card ( safestrap 3.75 as well). Root your phone with towelroot " make it rain". Install busy box and SuperSU from the play store if you don't already have them on your ext SD card as well. Safestrap comes last. You are now rooted on NCG. Keep in mind that all the files mentioned in the beginning of the post should already be on your computer. Go into download mode and follow the rest of the post. There are no modems to flash. Not sure if this answers your questions.

I'd like to get him on the last KitKat update (which I understand to be NK2?) and get him on a good debloated custom ROM. He does not like Lollipop at all! And yes, thank you for the breakdown - those are the very steps that I'm putting into a document for him to follow. These are all very similar steps to my own S4 so it's not too unfamiliar.

I am trying to get xprivacy working on my Oneplus One and I've tried a few things, but I cannot get past the bootscreen.

ROM: cm-12-20150211-UNOFFICIAL-sm-temasek-bacon-v7.5.1

Kernel: Boeffla-kernel-3.0-beta10-CM-bacon-l474-2015-02-08-152937.CWM

I extracted the boot.img from the Boeffla kernel, unpacked it, modified the \rmdisk\service_contexts with geany and appended it with

xprivacy453 u:object_r:system_server_service:s0

repacked it, and flashed it with flashify.

When booting, it gets stuck on the bootscreen; Where it normally says Powered by ANDROID, it only shows "Powered" of which only the top half gets printed before seizing.

I can hard reset it, go back into twrp, and restore just the boot partition and get it back up.

I think this is standard behaviour: once you set your BT headset to "Wireless Stereo" mode, all sounds will go to your headset, but phone rings will still happen on both the speakers and the headset.

Is there an easy way to end Stereo A2DP mode but leave phone headset mode on?

After listening to music on the way to work I want to leave the headset on for calls only, not linked for music (and draining battery more) all day. At the moment I have to turn my headset off and on to do this.

BTW, i have a Jabra BT-150. It sucks with the Ameo. Its the worst POS ive had. It worked fine on other phones, but just doesnt play nice with my Ameo.

On the other hand, my cheap iWing stereo headset from maplin works great! It had problems with wm6 on my old Universal, but works so well on the Ameo.

I just discovered that its not even stereo by default!!!!! You want real stereo? Get out your reg editor...

HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/BitPool=30 - change to 48

HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/MaxSupportedBitPool=30 - change to 58

HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Bluetooth/A2DP/Settings/UseJointStereo=1 - change to 0

Find a song with lots of stereo seperation that you know, listen... Do the reg hack (Soft reboot), listen again.

Man, That sucks! What a stupid default, and why no simple tick box in bluetooth settings to change it?

You're right!!!

Since I just put a t-mobile SIM on it, it just loaded a default APN setting that wasn't the best for it...

So then I bought a Metro PCS SIM card... they only sell NANO sim cards on walmart, but they come with an adapter, and even though the manual says "no adapters", I was able to activate it just fine by dialing *228, and activating it myself with the operator.

THEN!!!

I realize I have no internet, and just then remember APN setting... I use an old APN setting list for MetroPCS for the original Moto G, and it wasn't so good... but then I find a more updated list, and that one gives me a stable 5 to 7 Mbps down :).

So problem solved... now to address that annoying battery drain :( This phone's battery sucks really bad.
