[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chief:
hi,

my dad got i9515 4.4.2 with root and 0x0 and i really don't know how to update to 5.0.1 so the knox won't be 0x1 because of present time root the phone has.

kies update will only update the files but what about that root that is already on it? will it notice it and make 0x1 without root on 5.0.1?

what do odin? does flashing with odin is like fresh system so i just flash and it's 0x0 without root?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
So many questions.

I'm not positive, but I don't believe you can use Kies on a rooted S4. It will pick up on the firmware status of "Custom" and not allow the update. OTA might work, but it may also check the firmware status, see that it's set to "Custom", and fail. Thus you should use Odin to do the update. If you do it through Odin you will not trip the Knox flag. You will however lose root and will need to root the device after the upgrade. Look through the forums as I'm not 100% sure on this, but to the best of my knowledge, there is no way to root Android 5.0.1 without tripping the Knox flag. I believe this is because the methods used to root without tripping the Knox flag no longer function on Android 5.0.1.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_lewis1126:
Hello all,

About 3 months ago, I dropped my phone and cracked the screen right where the proximity sensor is. After getting the screen fixed, every time I unlock the screen it would immediately lock again unless I held down the volume down button while unlocking. This workaround worked very well, until the Lollipop update was installed. This workaround no longer works, and it is literally IMPOSSIBLE to unlock the phone unless its directly underneath a lamp or other llightsource. It barely works in direct sunlight....

I have spent the entire day researching how to disable the sensor via rooting, so I rooted my phone and installed Hardware Disabler/Android Sensor Box to attempt to disable them that way, but the sensor box will NOT display the driver names of the sensors, only the name. When I look on the Hardware Disabler app, I get a huge list of drivers and none of them have the name or manufactorer of the two sensors I need to disable.

If anyone knows how to find the names of these drivers so that I can disable them, it would be MUCH appreciated! Ive searched everywhere on the internet and have not found anything about the driver names for the light and proximity sensors.

Thank you!!!!

Hi,

i just found a way to root the 80 xs you need Linux for it (i think a Virtual machine should do but i didn't test it).

FIRST OF ALL YOU CAN BRICK YOUR DEVICE AND I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT

Based on "Rooting the Cube U30GT rk3066 android tablet" i think a copy and past version makes it more easy ;)

http://valentijn.sessink.nl/?p=382

download

superuser and su from

rkflashtool to readout your system

http://sourceforge.net/projects/rkflashtool

and linux_upgrade_tool to upload your modified system image

http://dl.radxa.com/rock/tools/linux/

put all (even Superuser.apk and su from the archive) in top of one directory (/home/user/archos) connect your device to the pc

open a terminal

get root

# cd archos

# adb reboot bootloader

# ./rkflashtool r 0x0000 0x2000 > /tmp/parm

# head -11 /tmp/parm

search for system, there you have the position of your system just to be sure if its the same for you ;)

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quark^2:
I have a Nexus 10 with unlocked bootloader and 4.4.4.

Recovery running Philz.

What is the safest way to upgrade to 5.1 while keeping all userdata and 3 accounts?

Can I use NRT with keep user data setting on?

Are there any pitfalls to avoid bricking? Will my N10 be encrypted after flashing?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quark^2:
Anyone, I'd like to upgrade soon.

Is it safe to upgrade from 4.4.4 to 5.1 in one go by flashing the factory image while keeping userdata?

If not, just say so.. It's not that bad with Titanium Backup (or is that a bad idea from KK -> L?)
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BladeRunner:
you can restore from TiBu from KK to LP just don't restore any data
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quark^2:
OK will skip data when restoring from TiBu.

But still my original question remains: what is the easiest + safest way to upgrade?

Is flashing the 5.1 factory image while keeping the userdata partition safe?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beekay201:
Easiest way: OTA

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoXion1:
Hi to all you Z3 owners! After looking at all the smartphones my carrier (Rogers) has to offer (Galaxy S6, LG G3, etc.) I've decided to upgrade from my old Galaxy S2 (Skyrocket) and purchase a Sony XPERIA Z3.

Today is Fri and it'll be at my door Mon afternoon and I can barely contain my excitement!

*I'd just like to ask everyone how satisfied you are with the Z3? What are the Pros and Cons of the device? Do you have any ROM recommendations you can share?

Thx for any input you guys can give! [emoji3]
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TanmayTzara:
Hi and welcome fellow owner!

I certainly do understand your excitement since I had my own z3 for just 3 days now.

I come from a not distant past, the LG G2, and I have to admit, the xperia feels amazingly better in use. Just 100% fun all the time.

I too considered the G3, but recently I found myself needing more of a solid device rather than a specs monster.

Still hesitant to submerge it in the water :S

If you're into rooting I'd recommend you do it right away, I flashed the lollipop update first and now I'm stuck feeling tied to all the personalisation I had made.

Cheers.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meteor999:
I too came from the S2 and I am more then happy, its a beautifull phone to hold and its great in sunlight. Music sounds awsome with the right pair of earphones or headphones. Snappy and smooth all the time. Battery life is excellent. I myself have taken some very nice pics, some astonishingly perfect, some not so perfect I need to play with the camera settings a bit more, outdoors on a bright day it takes great pics. I just updated to lollipop today. Im living in ireland but flashed the central europe generic. Im loving the phone even more now. I would like any tech experts to tell me what the real difference is between a Central Europe generic firmware and a UK generic firmware. As my phone is working perfect on the Central Europe firmware, same reception and everything. I got this insured so I have decided not to bother buying a cover because is such a nice phone why ruin it with a cover. All in all its a 5 star from me so far. Enjoy

Hello mates. I recently went from a Samsung Galaxy S2 (Hercules) to the Sony Xperia Z3 (T-Mobile) model, D6616. The bootloader is locked ? I will not be able to root it. Yes, that's right. I don't know about the Rogers version. But for us Yanks who are with T-Mobile, we are SOL. Enjoy the phone. I love mine the way it is. I am running 4.4.4 KitKat and am hesitant to update to LP. I have read all sorts of disappointibg anecdotes on Google + about battery life not being anywhere near as good as this phone is with KitKat. Just this morning I got 25 hours before having to recharge. The most I've gotten is 36 hours. Amazing. Sounds and pictures are terrific. I like the user interface with KitKat on this phone. I sure do miss flashing roms, though. Please get a case or two. Amazon has plenty of them. This phone is slippery. Good luck.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaoscreater:
Hi guys, I'm also interested in getting the Z3 (for my girlfriend), but I'm a little bit reluctant because there seems to be many serious issues about this phone.....

I've done a lot of research already and from what I've read so far, the most common issue is pink blotch on the photos. People say that it seems to an issue with the camera hardware. I've also seen some reviews about the 4K recording overheating the camera, which is pretty disappointing considering Sony phones are known for their decent cameras...

The only good thing I've seen in common is to do with the battery life, apparently it averages 8~10 hours. Is that true?

What about Wifi? Sony phones are known to have crappy wifi since the Z1.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NoXion1:
I have had my new Z3 for 14 days now and taken tons of pictures and I've had no issues with pink areas in photos at all. I read some ppl got a bad batch of camera hardware. One thing to do is test the camera straight away and if there's issues, bring it (or ship it) straight back for a replacement.

Camera: It doesn't take spectacular pics, but they're quite nice and the low light pics are excellent. I can't speak to the 4k video, however when you change to this mode it warns you there's a possibility of the phone getting too hot. (see below screenshot)

Battery life: 8-10hrs? Try 36 - The battery life is completely insane on this phone. I can get through 1 1/2 days of regular use before needing to plug in and charge.

WiFi: I have a large home with a fully finished basement. My "man cave" is down there and I get a great signal with no issues. Range is only average though, nothing spectacular.

Cases: If you get her the phone, the best case for it that I've found is the Ringke FUSION. I went through 2 other cases (Tudia, Sony Scr24 Style Cover) before discovering this. I purchased the "smoke black" version and I love it.

Has anyone else seen this? My camera quality slowly got worse and worse. I went to get my phone replaced under warranty and got hassled around because of the known hairline back that happens around the microphone port so I decided to take the lens off. It takes perfect pics now. I'm very gentle with my phones. It's in perfect condition so I don't even understand how the lens got this way. Bought a new one on ebay for $4 and will replace it myself. Here's what my pics look like.. One is the front camera and the horrible looking one is the rear camera.
[AT&T LG G3] chaosclarity:
When you say camera lens, are you talking about the protective plastic piece? That's not a lens, it's just a piece of protection stuck on like the plastic cover found on your screen when unboxing. The actual camera lens is glass and would be tough to scratch.
[AT&T LG G3] hbawlz:
No... I understand.... Protective plastic was removed a LONG time ago. My photos appear cloudy as well, and slowly getting worse. if I look at the lens it looks like it's got a sheen over it and no matter what I do I can't rub it off I can't clean it off. What do I want for a buck though I guess.... right? Dollar phone.

I was able to clean the sheen off with some tooth paste, q-tip then some alcohol to shine it up. Works great now, no scratches

in the right upper corner: RUU

I cant start the mda, i think i lost my old roms and the mda is useless now.

Please folks try to help me i realy need this mda for my work and im hopeless without it. When is start the MDA i just see the screen and i cant do anything but looking to that screen. the touch screen doesnt work and the keys neither.

Is there a solution to CID unlock my mda or to connect it with active sync so i can get in the folders or something and then install the older roms or so.

Thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Zzan:
you should be in the Wizard Upgrading, etc. thread.

You could be in 1 of 2 possible situations:

1. Your phone was a G4 and you flashed G3 bootloaders into it and now it is a fully fledged brick. (hope this isn't the case, but this happens when people jump in and don't read first)

2. Your battery is probably dead. You should have read before you jumped in. Have your friend recharge your battery since they seem to know so much about what you should be doing with your phone. If your friend doesn't have the same phone and already completed these procedures then you shouldn't have been listening to them in the first place. If you can't get your battery charged this way then you will have to buy one from a store that sells the phone or on ebay.

you will need to re-flash the button rom and complete the unlock. Then make sure you DO step 17 BEFORE you flash your WM6 rom or you will still be in a world of crap.

If you don't know what I mean by step 17 then go to the forum I mentioned above and look for a thread near the top that is Tagged with [READ FIRST]

Read that and you will be good. You need to talk to your friend and make sure that the next time they "help" someone they make sure to give them ALL of the information they need before they start trying to turn their expensive toy into a plastic paperweight.

Did anyone else notice that the metal on the black edition is darker aluminum than the metal on the white?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pure+:
Noticed but thought maybe it was just me. Glad it's actually a thing tho. I am not a big fan of silver. Only reason I'm getting a case it to cover the silver.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyc:
Until I saw it myself, I had no idea the black edition had darker metal. In fact, I didn't hear anyone saying it out of the dozens of reviews I watched and read online. I think it make a lot more sense to darken the metal to reduce the contrast between the body and the border.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasK:
Well yea.. here is how I classify the metal color:

Black unit : space grey

White unit: original silver

Gold unit: copper.

The space grey works really well with the black :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pure+:
Well it's not space grey. That's for sure. It's still silver, just not as harsh.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasK:
Yea.. I wouldn't disagree on that.

It is basically aluminium silver with an itsy bitsy tint of grey. Whatever it is, I think Sammy did a good job in making sure they contrast well with their primary colors.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pure+:
I honestly wish it were grey. I think Apple has got something with its "space grey" I mean it looks gorgeous as hell. I've never like silver and I think it looks especially poor with black but I'll be damned if I get a white phone. My dislike for white phones far outdoes my dislike for silver.

Basically a lesser of two evils scenario for me.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eyc:
Agreed on all fronts. Samsung should have gone even darker with the metal on the black model to further reduce the contrast and make the phone look blacked out, so to speak. Then again, I also wish they didn't have that highly reflective giant "SAMSUNG" on the front and that Verizon didn't spooge all over the back of the phone with their 3-lines of carrier branding.

I also agree that, while white can look pretty slick and clean, I'll never go back there after using a white-face Moto X. The contrast between the screen and the white boarder is just too jarring and non-immersive. Also, you have to deal with the inevitable line of black between the screen and the white border, which only makes matters worse. Plus, if there are any alignment issues between the digitizer and the phone housing (like my Moto X), you'll know it in an instant with a white phone.
