[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Ok, you do realize that Android is on a crazy amount of different device from different company? The OS needs to be update/adapted to every single variant there is = Takes time! Apple has to deal with their products only, which is much easier. So yeah, therefore pushing updates faster across all Iphones.

Now I do agree with you that it sucks to wait for updates longer than others but you phone is working right, isn't it? And it won't become bad cause a new model was released. Afaik, that new model will be running the same version of android as your device when it gets updated (which should be quite soon if it's not up already).

If you really want instant updates, grab a Nexus, which is Google's line. You'd get the updates just as fast as Iphones get theirs. Oh and it never takes a year for Google to release updates? Unless it's on a very very old device.

[AT&T LG G3] fizmixa:
anyone using AutomateIt with their stock rooted lollipop? my automateit rules that have an application as a trigger are not working/being activated. i get the following notification "Usage access required. Automateit Application Trigger requires access to the device usage stats to monitor active applications. Click to manage apps with usage access." i click on the notification but nothing happens and will get the notification again at some point.

According to Automateit FAQ: My application status trigger is no longer working on Android Lollipop. How can this be fixed? Due to changes in Android Lollipop, In order for AutomateIt to monitor active apps it requires an explicit permission from the user. You can do that by going to your device Settings→Security and click on the “Apps with usage access option” (This should be the last item on the settings screen). On that screen, you need to authorize AutomateIt to access the device usage info so it can monitor active apps.

But this option/setting isn't available on G3 stock lollipop. anyone have any ideas or suggestions? thanks in advance.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corvus.corax:
This baffles me. Samsung knows good and well that their super amoled screens suck power when displaying white or colors instead of black. So why in the name of (fill in your deity of choice) did they bring out TW/Lollipop fire the S4 using white backgrounds for settings, the dialer, the calculator, etc? Style over common sense. Why doesn't that surprise me?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Well, it's Google that adopted white for the screen color. So every phone with Android 5.0.x on it is going to have white as the dominant color. Samsung could have fiddled with the colors, but Google would likely have slapped them on the nose with a rolled-up newspaper and said, "no". It already happened once with Tizen.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
I don't know why they would even do this. White is also very straining on the eyes during the night..

What will they go for next? Red and Green with Orange?

Luckily CM12 has a dark theme. And the GPE versions here also have a dark theme.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corvus.corax:
You'd expect Samsung to have final say on what's best for its devices.... Many, many years ago, when I was a systems analyst, I found research done by DEC (Digital Equipment Corporation - remember them?) showing cyan on a black background was optimal for most users in terms of readability and eye strain. I guess Google doesn't care or pay attention to the research, but CM apparently does.

http://www.businessinsider.com/google-restrictions-android-2014-9

The first link is a very enlightening one. I feel it should explain to your satisfaction why Samsung, or other Google partners for that matter, can't simply reskin the entire OS like they used to. The second one points out that Google changed its contracts with its partners, requiring more Google app integration, and requiring less customization of the OS. In the first, Motorola's patents were used as a baseball bat to beat Samsung into compliance. Lawyers were used in the second link as a loaded gun pointed at the face of partners telling them to comply, or else.

These actions do NOT prevent someone from taking a copy of Android and forking it, as Amazon did. These actions also do NOT prevent anyone from simply taking the source code and releasing it on a device. However, in both cases, access to the Play Store and the Google apps is denied, and it's the Play Store and apps which drive the popularity of Android, far more than the ability to customize it.

So why can't Samsung simply create a dark version of Android? Because to do so would cost them access to the Play Store, which would cost them far more customers than would be lost by sticking with white.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Both (Google and Samsung) seem to want to fill our phones with crap.

Maybe google should do a survey regarding the next android theme color.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
It's a matter of opinion as to what "crap" is. For example, I find most of Samsung's apps to be total garbage, with the exception of the Optical Reader and the Camera app. The Google apps on the other hand are, for the most part, useful. Case in point, I installed Google Translate onto my S4 recently to translate the posts of people who can't be bothered to use a translator on this board and others. On the flip side I find Hangouts to be total crap and prefer the plain 'ol Messaging app. Yet I'm sure there are people out there who feel the exact opposite, in that they like the Samsung apps but hate Google apps.

Google I suspect will endeavor to make everyone happy by including the ability to switch between light and dark, but that probably won't be until Android 6.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] body150165:
Android was just not made for Samsung only but also for all the IPS displays which don't care about this.

Thanks to the chief of design at Google, white background with candy colors and that ugly (for my taste) green font color and icons is considered as fancy, friendly, modern. Not that a person with average brain capabilities shares this opinion. But the decision makers get big money just to make changes, no matter what. Having said that, i am not a big fan of that Material design Hype.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
A lot of this so-called hate stems from knowledge that the AMOLED displays used in devices from Samsung and others use more power when the pixels are lit and wear out more quickly than a conventional display. With AMOLED, darker is better for battery life.

The average user on the street isn't going to care about light or dark. They care only that their phone works.

If white is putting too much strain on your eyes .. you may try reading mode .. in settings > my device > reading mode .. for the first time you need to edit and select the apps like phone.. contacts.. sms.. settings .. which you want their display in reading mode .. you can select maximum 20 apps .. then reading mode can also be turned on and off from the notification bar toggles .. what will happen is the display will have yellowish tint and will be somewhat soft on eyes ..

You should be using mfastboot or fastboot commands to flash each partition back to stock, update the Moto apps via Play store, and then run OTA update.

So after getting my phone from Verizon, the OTA hit and updated my phone to 5.0.1 and I can't find a way to restore it back to 4.4.4.

I see Sunshine is working on getting it setup for Lollipop, but i have no idea how far away that is.

So does anyone know how I can get back to 4.4.4 to downgrade?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jcsugrue:
Unfortunately, it cannot be done. If you're s-on, and you have taken the upgrade, you're stuck until jcase updates Sunshine to support the latest software.

I really wish there were an option to roll back, my phone is ridiculously laggy since the update.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] ZeroManArmy:
Is there any kind of ETA on Sunshine?

You lose root, but since you're unlocked its easy to flash twrp and reroot

---------- Post added at 02:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 PM ----------

Not 100% sure but I think you have to be stock, unrooted or the OTA will fail. Since you're s-off already it's easy just to flash twrp and re-root once you take the OTA

Check Tigerstown's firmware thread first. He was going to post a pure stock ROM today
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] baune7:
So, I think i'm in the same boat.. right now I am on 4.4.4, S-on, temp root w/ weaksauce 2.0. 100% stock besides that. I would like to update to 5.0, but want to keep root. Now since there's no root like weaksauce for 5.0, what are my options for updating to LP but still being rooted??

I have run the Sunshine APK up to the point it says it WILL work, but nervous about pulling the trigger and going all the way for warranty reasons. Would I be able to run the current sunshine to get S-off, then flash TWRP recovery, then flash the permanent root exploit and then install SuperSU. Take the OTA to LP. Once that's done, re-install TWRP and then flash root and super SU? As I understand it, S-off carries over through the OTA, but root does not??? All I really want is root to run Wifi tether app when I need to, other than that I really like the stock HTC Sense..

Sorry, but still kind of new and bewildered with the HTC stuff, all my other toys were Moto in the past so that's what I am used to tinkering with.

BTW Jcase said on his twitter [MENTION=373605]TheRoot[/MENTION]ninja...new Sunshine release tomorrow (3-15-15)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] berndblb:
Pull the trigger! :D

Even if you S-off [MENTION=3472611]dottat[/MENTION] has a way to flash a S-off RUU, remove root, lock the bootloader, turn S-on then flash a S-on RUU and nobody could ever tell you were S-off at one point ;)

Your scenario up there is almost correct, except after flashing the permanent root exploit in TWRP you have to flash the stock recovery back if you want to take the OTA. After taking the OTA you then would have to flash TWRP back and root again. A hassle I would not bother with.....

[MENTION=5317224]Tigerstown[/MENTION] will post a totally stock 5.0 rom in his firmware thread. He promised it for today - if it's not there already it will come... Just wait with the update until it's out.

So a much easier scenario would be:

Use sunshine and flash TWRP.

Flash the 5.0 firmware from Tigerstown's thread, then flash the 5.0 stock rom from the same thread. Done

Hi,

i am trying to connect both devices, but the Smartband is not shown under android bluettoth settings. Unfortunately the Honor 6 L04 does not have NFC. But i doubt this would help.

I tried following things.

With the Apps "BLE Scanner" or "Bluetoth LE Scanner" i can find and connect the smartband. The apps say that its connected and the Smartband acts like it is connected (LED's).

Unfortuantely the Smartband Settings can only be accesed via Sony SmartConnect, but i cannot start Smartband Settings since it's not connected via android blueetooth menu.

I tried "adb shell am start -a com.sonyericsson.extras.SETTINGS" and the smartband settings menu appears, but status says its not connected.

Smartband is working (naturally) with a Sony Xperia Z and my Lenovo Yoga Tab 2.

Any ideas?
[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayp57:
