[HTC Desire 610] KLit75:
http://htcsource.com/2015/01/leaked-document-reveals-htcs-lollipop-update-roadmap/

This is Not the particular article I read but if I find it I'll post it. Seems the device is more than capable of running it. I don't understand the business aspect entirely but I think since its still a relatively new phone they'd want to push the latest os.

Edit--most definitely right in assuming we won't be getting it soon. I remember reading awhile back 610 would be getting it in the 3rd quarter (probably early fall?) But then someone posted a "leak" here saying march or April the latest. Of course I was willing to believe. Now I see a schedule that puts us in what looks like the 4th quarter! Who knows...I think we'll get lollipop, I'm just not certain I'll still be using this phone when we do.
[HTC Desire 610] porozex:
HTC usa and HTC uk confirmed on chat that this device will get lollipop update but no eta for now
[HTC Desire 610] KLit75:
I think that leaked schedule online is accurate (which means I may not be using lollipop) I can't justify buying it now but I'm considering an s4 from swappa. Its not a definite but if lollipop doesn't come till around Xmas...that's a long time to wait. By that time other users might be anticipating the next OS!
[HTC Desire 610] AMOCO:
I agree this device will see Lollipop,This device can handle Lollipop without any problems.It's a new device that came out last year.

It should be out within the end of the month or even next month.
[HTC Desire 610] KLit75:
Can you tell us where you heard that? Thread last night said an HTC rep said no lollipop for 610.
[HTC Desire 610] porozex:
A guy on another forum asked them and they said yes
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxxan:
As I understand, lollipop should bring back the write access to SD card for third party apps.

However, the app "Ftp server" still cannot write to the SD card.

I cannot root the device due to company restrictions.

Any ideas or suggestions?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxxan:
Bump!
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheTeslaCoil:
Yeah, no root no acces.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxxan:
I got this reply from the developer of FTP server pro:

"Basically I would need to use a new set of functions created by google (which are not standard); but I can not do that as I am using a standard implementation of ftp protocol."

So apparently there is a non standard implementation available?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vesna:
This is exactly mine problem too. I have upgraded to Lollipop in hope to be able to write via FTP Server app to SD card again but it still doesn't work.

Is there another FTP app which can do it?

Also isn't there any other file browser app which can write to SD card (like pre-installed File Commander) ?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxxan:
Yea, the preinstalled file commander can write to sd. It even have a ftp client.

But I want the other way around.

Have tried a few of the free most popular fpt server apps, but same problem on them all.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazymister:
Probably/maybe if you make it a system app it'll work. (use Titanium backup for that)

Nvm that's only applicable if you have root, sorry i forgot you can't root...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxxan:
For those who are interested. FTP server pro has now been updated, and support full access to SD card.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wobstar:
No dice, FTP server pro only writes to it's proprietary folder, not to SD card in general.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waxxan:
It is working on my Z3 at least. You might have to choose custom folder, then point the custom folder to the SDcard. That is how i have it configured.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wobstar:
That does the trick ! Thanks !!
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chris Dickerson:
Custom Folder

LG G4 - I set up the custom folder to be home but I'm still seeing the root (/). If I try to delete or transfer files -- no dice.

Non-rooted phone.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wobstar:
I'm on non-rooted too. Directly after selecting the sdcard as custom folder, I had the option to grant write access as described here:

https://metactrl.com/docs/sdcard-on-lollipop/
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chris Dickerson:
I didn't receive anything about write access or otherwise after the the window opened to let me select the SD Card.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wobstar:
You have set home folder to custom? And then opened the activated browser just below the home folder option? And select external SD card in that option?

If yes and it didn't work, I would suggest reinstalling the app...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chris Dickerson:
Well it helps to follow ALL the instructions... this is important:

"Don't navigate down into any subfolder. You must select the top-level root folder of the SD card. This is important."

:p
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Webscratcher:
This FTP-Server worked for me:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.theolivetree.ftpserver

In the settings you can select your root directory, don't select "ext. SDCard" it will only let you write in the apps own folder on the SDCard. Select personalized home directory than android asks you were your root directory should be, select your SDCard and confirm it, this should do the trick.

(Tested on LG G4 - Android 6.0)

Hope it works for everyone ;D .

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lesdense:
OK, here's a mystery, at least to me. I am working on an XT926 which is NOT activated and won't be. This is a spare phone I use for media, remote control and other non-Verizon dependent tasks. My XT926 is bootloader unlocked and is rooted. I have successfully flashed ROMs from 4.1.2 all the way through 4.4.4. I can flash Lollipop ROMs too and they flash fine EXCEPT when I try to log in to my Gmail account.

I use two-factor authentication and it's never been a problem. New device or new ROM, want to log in with my usual Gmail account, type user name and password, get the notice about two-factor authentication, a new page pops up and there's a blank where I type in the six-digit code that is sent as a text message to my phone (please remember that I am NOT activating my working phone but rather another device that will only be used via wifi).

With this Droid Razr Maxx HD, though, all of that works except the page that pops up to type in the verification code. I get a page but there's NO PLACE TO TYPE IN THE CODE! What in the world? Also a first for me, the code that is sent to authenticate isn't six numbers, it's six numbers with a "G-" in front of it. Not sure if that different code has something to do with why I don't get a blank space to type in the code I received.

I've tried flashing several different nightlies of CM12 plus one or two "unofficial" Lollipop ROMs from this forum. All yield the same result. I must be missing something simple but I can't figure it out.

[Sprint LG G3] savannahmick:
Hey! I have had a rough winter with money and Sprint kind of dumped me after 7yrs of service with no issues with me paying the bill! Anyway I just got this phone recently and hate for it to be a paper weight or media player only so I wanted to know if I have any options other than the Sprint network? I am not a complete rookie I have it rooted and running Barepop at the moment so any advice, help, or info would be greatly appreciated! I hope I don't make anyone angry by posting here. Thanks!
[Sprint LG G3] 1619415:
Well it depends if you are ok with like 3G-4G i use t-mobile prepaid some times I went to walmart and got a sim kit for $35 I got unlimted call text and like 5GB's of LTE. Sadly though you cannot get LTE because the phone does not support the LTE but I get like 15 mps 4G and like 10 mb 3G witch is still faster then sprint's LTE and 3G combined. You will have to flash a GSM rom from the android develoment thread right now there is no GSM unlock on for ZV8. You could also try simple mobile I just recomend you go to walmart and look around the celluar area they have a couple sim kits.
[Sprint LG G3] ingoljosh:
lol you have to be kidding right!!!

15Mbps is faster than Sprints LTE and 3G combined???

Check out the screenshot and mind you I am not too close to a lte tower. i had like 3 bars when i ran this test.

33Mbps your 15 dont even come close. And since sprint is one of the only carriers to pffer true unlimited date i easyly run over 20 gigs per month without slowing down.

Alls im saying is get your facts straight.
[Sprint LG G3] 1619415:
Wow guess your lucky most people complain about getting only like 10 mbps (sprintsucks facebook page)
[Sprint LG G3] banks2878:
that's the fastest I've ever seen a Sprint!! around here the fastest sprints I've seen are about 10mbps
[Sprint LG G3] savannahmick:
Thanks for the info!

I am pretty sure I was getting about 25mbs DL speeds on Sprint here in Savannah but I can live with anything over 2-3mbs. I already have a Cricket account and Sim card but I am trying to figure out the best method to get it working on my G3. Cricket is now on the Att network so signal quality is decent and LTE speeds. Anyone who can give me a little guide to get it working on the Sprint G3 I would be VERY GRATEFUL!
[Sprint LG G3] banks2878:
my Galaxy Mega on T Mobile got near 40mbps here
[Sprint LG G3] hatlesssandman:
He does have his facts straight what you are showing is Sprint's "Spark" LTE network. Their normal LTE network doesn't go above 12 Mbps even with full bars. You are lucky enough to be in an area where spark is enabled, most places don't have spark network enabled although sprint is rolling it out as fast as possible. Their overall speeds are very dismal (with exception of spark LTE).
[Sprint LG G3] ingoljosh:
Sorry I was unaware that there was a normal LTE. i thought Sprint LTE was all SPARK.

Guess i didn't have MY facts straight. :cyclops:
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slightperil:
Hi guys, I'm hoping someone can help..

For the last few weeks my Nexus 5 has been randomly crashing, this has progressively worsened. The phone crashes and completely shuts off, one second it will be working the next it will be off. When I turn the phone back on it thinks the battery is almost completely drained and, when the problem wasn't as bad, the battery level would slowly increase when left.

Now the problem has increased that, when it crashes, the phone will either not fully boot or crash again very soon after starting. The only way to keep the phone on it to have it plugged in, this also seems to prevent the crashes.

I have factory reset the phone and reflashed the latest factory image. I am also rooted.

I've attached two logcat files that I started recording before the phone crashed.

Any advice on how to fix this issue would be appreciated.

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aerowinder:
It's normally an issue with the battery. When the device thinks the battery is dead (due to sudden voltage drop probably), it shuts down.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] redneckms:
Right now I have all my contacts on my Razr phone (not sim) and I bought a new 8125 to be here Wed. What is the best way to get the done? I need to move them over soon.

Do I copy all to sim then just move the sim over?

Thanks,
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Junner2003:
Well, you also could use bluetooth - sending one by one. If you have other contact information than phone numbers (as example email addresses) they won't save on SIM ...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] redneckms:
All I have on the sim and or phone is the phone numbers. Nothing else.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] sgtcasey:
I would just copy the contacts to your SIM from the Razr and then copy them from the SIM to the phone or even better just leave them on the SIM in the new device.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] monkey_knight:
if you sync to your information to your computer, you may be able to transfer your contacts through outlook from your razr and then sync that info to your 8125. I use to have a razr in the past, but I don't remember if the syncing software was outlook if motorola had used their own pim manager...

the one qualm i have with transfering through the sim card is that all the extra information is usually not transfered (ie, e-mail addresses, addresses, birthdays, etc). The sim card tends to only hold names and phone numbers...or at least that was my experience.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nottoosmart:
You can also use a software called Motorola phone tools to get them to your computer which you can import into outlook

Root Razr i 4.4.2

Hi. You are a simple steps to have root now that you have unlocked the bootloader of the Razr i. You can follow this very simple steps shown in the video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIHUo8nx0UQ

It's basically to dowload this package: "RAZR i RECOVERY.rar" https://mega.co.nz/#!sF8wzQ7C!ssc3uPDKVGhti9qhCfQUbDbgpI-rHECRjbAoz-Fx7R4 (It's the same from the video)

Then you copy these 2 lines of commands and paste them into the CMD prompt:

Command to install TWRP:

fastboot flash recovery recovery-razri-twrptouch.img. (Include the last dot)

Command to reboot the device:

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Then watch the video for the next simple steps, you don't need to understand the language (Portuguese) to follow the steps.

It'll work for 4.4.2. Of course you need to have the drivers installed. You can get them from the Motorola site.

I think it should work for other Motorola smartphones too.

I hope you this helps n.n

Hi all as title states my moto g is downloading the new 5.0 update but during install it says error and switches phone back on with no changes made. It was rooted and custom firmware was installed. Since then uts back to fully unrooted, stock recovery is reinstalled and bootloader is still unlocked. However still it errors a quarter into installing.

So i have come to the assumption that it is best for me to revert/ reinstall the stock 4.4.4 rom back on and try updating after that. However seen loads of complicated methods on how to reinstall the stock firmware onto my phone so want the easiest way if possible.

In attatchments is the info from the current stock rom that is on the phone (will state a custom rom has never been installed to the phone always been stock) and i have downloaded the following to put onto it:

XT1032_RETAIL-GB_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.40_36_cid7_CFC_1FF.xml.zip

Ive tried using the mototools v3.1 and does abserlitly nothing non of the commants work or do anything with my phone.
