Flashing official stock firmware should revert your recovery back to standard. It did for me when I was using Cwm and reflashed 5.0.1 firmware.

try your device in safe mode to see if that changes anything. If not I'd recommend doing a complete wipe then reflashing the stock firmware.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malakalofung:
No mate tried all that, makes no difference. Even in safe mode its still behaves the same. And installed stock firmware many times, also without battery too. No improvement. Even the stock recovery isn't installed, thats the biggest question i have in that process. :(

Oh my God. Bro u saved my life. Thank you so much for replying and suggesting this. U r post was the 1st thing I read and did and it worked. Thanks man. Thanks so very much. U don't know how delighted I am now. Thank you again.....
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolfire:
Hmm.. Wonder why this issue occurred in the first place... I doubt it's due to rooting, though..
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] malakalofung:
Well im sure i followed the process right but now i doubt it used an incorrect file (CWM) to flash on odin, which caused this. Anyhow thank God its fine now lol. I Was literally in tears man. Ha ha
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolfire:
I can totally understand how you felt. Glad all is great now!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hackberrybold:
This problem has nothing to do with rooting or installing a custom recovery. Only when upgrading or downgrading firmwares the touchscreen firmware can sometimes bypass the update.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] strikestarcraft:
Hey guys! First post here, hoping I'm posting in the right thread...

I just wanted some information on upgrading my SGH-1337 Galaxy S4 (unlocked & rooted) to Cyanogenmod 12, as I'll be moving to a new town and my google maps app dies whenever I try to select "walk" or "bus" (I've tried, many, many ,many things to fix this, I also want material design and am sick of waiting for updates :P)

I've backed up my apps via Helium backup, however if there's a way for me to make a full flashed copy of my current OS that'd be great (I don't really understand TWRP, I'm new to all of this after all!)

I guess what I'm looking for are a bunch of A-Z tutorials :P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] strikestarcraft:
Ah yes, and I also have external 64gb micro sd cards to backup to as well, so if the tutorial requires those then I have, it. Additionally my pohone is currently on android version 4.4.2 Kitkat (which made backing up my stuff to my sd card seemingly impossible as I think that kitkat only allows read only access to the sd card)

Auto Rotate and wallpaper issue!

Hi,

I am all new to all this Custom Rom thing, so spare me for technical terms.

Have a little problem with auto-rotate screen option, isn't working for me, screen just doesn't rotate whether auto-rotation option is checked or not.

And the wallpaper size is too wide even after changing number of screens it should cover to minimal i.e. 2. I was wondering of minimal could be 1.

Thanks much in advance!

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YevOmega:
Hey all. Which ROM, kernel, and governor do you recommend I use on my N6? There are so many options that I figured I'd ask. Currently running Benzo ROM and the kernel it came with. Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
"Best" ROM.

There is no such thing as a best ROM.* The question itself is ambiguous.* "Best" is obviously a subjective term.

What I want from a ROM may well differ from what you want from a ROM, ergo - what is best for me could be worst for you.

If you are asking what the most popular ROMs are, or which ROMs people are using, you can see which threads stay around on the first few pages (and have the most posts) in the Android Development or Original Android Development forums. You can also see what other people are running by reading the What are YOU running on your Nexus 6??? thread.

If you are asking which is the most stable, being a Nexus device - they're all pretty stable.

If you are asking which is best on Battery, ROMs only affect battery if they have a feature that is badly coded.* You will likely be able to read about this in the ROM threads.* ROMs do not impact battery life.* The only impact to battery life are your apps, your settings, how you use the phone and mostly, environmental issues such as Phone Signal.

For tips about improving battery life, please read [Battery Life Help] Troubleshoot battery issues here!

"Best" Kernel

There is no such thing as the "Best" kernel.* What we all want from a kernel is different. Again, many people have the misconception that Kernels affect battery life.* Let's get this cleared up.* Although Kernel devs will build in optimisations and efficiencies that will improve battery life, these are very, VERY tiny...and if 1 kernel has these optimisations, they likely all have.

People will often say "Kernel x is better than kernel y for battery life".* This is actually wrong.* Kernels respond to user settings. Setting up the governor to favour either battery life or performance is simple enough to do, you just have to do some learning.* The reason people think Kernel x is better than y is because developers set their kernels up with their preferred governor settings.* This is what we refer to as out-of-the-box settings.* The out-of-the-box settings for kernel x may well produce better battery results than the out-of-the-box settings for kernel y, which favour performance.* The fact is, you as the user have the ability to tune kernel x or y to perform the same, be that battery or performance - so start learning how to do this yourselves - that way, you can choose the kernel based on the FEATURES you want, and not the fictional performance benefits of one kernel over another.

Hope this helps
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
this. and its very well said at that.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YevOmega:
Thanks for the reply root.... However, nowhere did I ask what the "best" ROM is, I totally disagree that the stability will be equivalent because there are AOSP ROMs out there that are all in alpha for 5.1, as well as stock ROMs that may have certain rather experimental things, with nightlies being released. I guess the goal of my query was to find out what people have set some of their variables to (ROM, settings, kernel, kernel settings) to get better battery life with minimal performance drop.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Its my generic answer. Copy and paste. But you asked for recommendations and that gets the same answer because other than semantics, there's no difference in the question.

That's you're prerogative but I'm not really talking about feature sets. That aspect of the answer is more generic, usually for people coming from HTC or Samsung where "camera sux" because the binaries were never released.

Performance uses power, which uses battery. There is no way to get more battery life back than the amount of performance you're willing to sacrifice. Its a direct correlation.

I can tell you my settings, but they're not magic. Everything I gain in battery life, I lose in performance.

Edit. I think a good thing to do would be to pick a kernel based on features, then speak to users of that kernel to see how they set it up
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micmars:
[MENTION=4798472]YevOmega[/MENTION], please check post #5 of the stickied Q&A thread for details on this question.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BladeRunner:
The answer depends on how many ROM/kernel/governor combinations there, because that is how many answers you are likely to get. Stock based are usually the most stable, and everything is likely to work the way its's supposed to while CM/AOSP ROMs will have more cusomization and tweaks but are often troubled by instability or things that are broken. Me, I'm on Stock rooted 5.1 for now, until I flash something else. What is it that's important to you when it comes to the ROM?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YevOmega:
I want it to be crisp most importantly, but it's nice to have things like PIE. Minimal bloatware, because yes there are still some system apps that I don't want but can't uninstall without jumping through hoops.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YevOmega:
Again, please read my statement. I understand that I can't just get better battery life out of thin air. I said minimal performance loss, not none. There is a variety of optimizations and my hope is that there are combinations that will improve my battery life without compromising performance too much.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
You've misinterpreted what I've said. There is no minimal. Its loss or its not. Its an direct correlation. If you want to save x battery you must sacrifice y performance. There's no magic, smaller z performance that still gets you x battery.

I didn't say you wanted to get battery out of thin air (perhaps you need to read my statement). I'm saying you want to get battery out of medium air, but I'm telling you that it only comes out of thick air.

Let me try something else.

To increase battery by 6, you must decrease performance by 6. There is no magic setting that will allow you to get 6 battery out of 3 performance. If you only want to sacrifice 3 performance, you'll only get 3 battery.

Break it down. What uses battery most?

-Screen

-Radio

-CPU

So forgetting screen and radio which are out of the scope of this thread, let's look at CPU.

CPU voltage is controlled by the kernel. The kernel has a table that has a predetermined amount of voltage for every clock cycle step. As you can see here.

So how you save power on CPU is to either prevent certain CPU frequency being used, limit the time it is being used for or try to not need that frequency. This will save 6 battery, but will lose 6 performance because in each case that battery is being saved, the CPU frequency is not being used. Its a relative battery to performance ratio.

So I can list all the kernel settings that will save you battery, but they all have an equal performance hit - which is what I'm trying to explain.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YevOmega:
Alright thanks. Go for it. I have vindicator kernel, as a reminder, so if you don't mind listing some settings, that would be nice ?. Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I use elementalx, but here's some things I like to do.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YevOmega:
How much SOT do you get, and what carrier are you on?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
It depends. At home, I can get 6 or maybe 7. On a work day, perhaps 4 or rarely 5.

I live in the UK so not sure the Carrier matters.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DespairFactor:
Carrier only matters if you are comparing signal strength in regards to the same bands. Kernels can also allow you to undervolt if you forgot, there are other things we can do such as drop voltage on certain parts of the device, though this can cause instability.

Optimizations on ROM and kernel side can reduce the overhead on the CPU and we can also increase throughput on several aspects of the device such as memory and BUS. Other things that "may" increase battery life could be removing code for rotational storage and using flash based alternatives/optimizing it for non-rotational storage.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YevOmega:
Thanks. And yeah, I know why carrier matters

[Android Apps and Games] KAMBOTMT:
thank you very much :o:o
[Android Apps and Games] PhinxApps:
It's possible with some limitations:

- no preloading / preopening (Quick opener mode) of webpages

- a click on Evernote, Google Docs and etc. will bring you to the latest document or screen of this app and maybe not to the document you actually pinned

- a few apps may reinitialize and lose text in input fields, scroll progress and etc. after switching to them

I'll implement a non-root mode if there're enough interested people that are okay with this limitations.

btw:

PinTasking is live on the Play Store:
[Android Apps and Games] Crytap:

[Android Apps and Games] ktetreault14:

Very nice and intuitive app
[Android Apps and Games] JoeFCaputo113:
Agreed!
[Android Apps and Games] PhinxApps:
Okay, I'll implement a non-root mode before or after the full release. May I ask you why folks with a rooted phone (?!) want it? I wonder if it's for security reasons? You can install the system helper by yourself with a root file explorer. Even system apps need a confirmation to gain root and the helper app declares only two additional permissions and shares them with PinTasking.

I am rooted but their are plenty of people who arent.

My phone is rooted, running plenty of rooted apps, and it says I am not and asks to install the helper or uninstall. Do I have to install the helper? I am on Android 5.1.1 HTC One M8.
[Android Apps and Games] PhinxApps:
This could help you:

1. Make sure that you haven't accidentally denied the root pop-up.

2. Restart the app and try it again.

3. It takes a while on Cyanogenmod to show up the root dialog. Tap "verify root" and wait 2-8 seconds.

I experienced the same bug once but I couldn't reproduce it and a simple application restart solved it for me. I'll look into it again.

Anyway, thanks for reporting.

hi ,

Your app PinTasking looks very interesting and practical .Thanks !

One issue i am trying to understand ................

I have Note 4 ( N910F ) rooted and on Lollipop 5.0.1

i installed your app from Play store,granted root access etc .

But i found app a bit confusing at first ( functions ..how to use etc ).

i uninstalled app ,as i wanted to see your video and then decide.

After watching video ,i was happy i understood functions better and reinstalled from Play store .

This time app was installed ,without asking again for root ( as in 1 st time when i installed )

It is working fine ,tested it rebooted etc ,but PinTasking does not show up in Superuser..?

However ,whilst typing above ,i had idea and went to PinTasking /Root helper installer and reinstalled

helper then was ask for root access etc ,( even though it was never uninstalled ,as i could see it in Titanuim )

and activated it ,and now app shows up in Superuser .

I have solved my issue ,but want to bring it to your attention.

Very impressed so far with apps.........practical /functional uses !

good luck
