[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] unk2009:
I'm sure you probably already tried this but if not pull the battery for a few seconds and then try going back into download mode and try the process again.

How did you upgrade to 5.0 (which method) You may have to provide more detail, there are a lot people who have way more knowledge than I do, but I hope this helps

Good luck and give the forums a search
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] NVQT:
Thanks for the reply! I actually upgraded to 5.0 by the flashfire method since before that I already got the rooted 4.4.4. Just yesterday, when I left my phone for a while and came back, it started to stick with the bootloop, , the only method which could help it out is to plug it into the power source. I tried everything which includes removing battery and wiping factory downgrading, flashing original firmware, reinstalling the OTA 5.0 update through sdcard. None of that worked. If you have any information to help me out,I would be way happy to listen! Thank you !
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] UsandThem:
I've had this same problem. Are you still bootlooping?

Hi muniz, I posted in your KeepRoot for 5.0 thread and then I saw this one. My phone seems to have spontaneously softbricked (system crashes and then it bootloops). Will flashing the stock 5.0 make me lose root?

EDIT: Fixed with a battery pull!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Vol4Ever:
Just to clarify, my S5 is on the OC4 build. Will I be able to downgrade to KK using the above file, or is it ONLY to fix a device that got bricked while trying to downgrade? If the latter, are OC4 users just hosed? I have scoured this site, but would appreciate links to any instructive threads that I may have missed. Thanks!

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iiigeorgievi:
Hi guys,

I am experiencing some strange "problems" ( or not ) with my N910C.

When I am using the auto brightness feature I believe my CPU and/or GPU is not performing as it should. For example, running AnTuTu with auto brigantines - 41-42k points, running it without auto brightness 51-52k points....

Also I believe the phone is lowering GPU and/or CPU performance very often due to temperature increase. My phone is not really hot but its not cold either.

I´ve tried games like Beach Buggy Racing and Modern Combat 5 and they do not run as smoothly as they should ( I think )

Is there any way to stop the CPU and GPU for lowering their frequencies due to temperature as I think the temperature is not high at all.

I am not using any power saver or anything else. Just pure stock Lollipop.

I had the same problem with KitKat. My best gaming and benchmark time is when my phone has been sleeping for a while.

Can someone confirm similar issues? For example if you run Antutu 3 times in a row what results are you getting? First around 50k, then the following around 41-42k :)

Thanks in advance.

Hello All,

I want to restore my xperia z3 D6603 back to its factory settings.

I received the device with Telekom.DE xxx.5.77 ftf

then i flashed the device with D6603_23.1.A.0.690_Customized_US.ftf without root or unlocking the bootloader.

Now i want to load the Telekom.DE xxx.5.77 ftf back and set it to factory settings .

Please help me with the steps.

Thanks & Regards,

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] freddy1991:
Use Xperifirm to download the desired firmware.

Then build ftf file with Flashtool and flash the resulting ftf file via Flashtool.

Note that downgrade from lollipop to kitkat will need to wipe everything on your device.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] R_Chin:
Hello, I am looking for an app that can actually remove me from a group message so that I do not receive tons of useless texts that end up using my data. Currently I use Google's Messenger as my main texting app, as we all know the stock one is terrible. This app works great and I love it, however when I get flooded with MMS it does not seem to know how to react and then refuses to send any SMS. Now I am also up to download another texting app if someone knows one that handles MMS better, I have tried Textra in the past however I kept recieving a notification that said something about my MMS APN but I never touched anything in Textra's settings to break that because it did work for a while. I am open to other options if someone has any ideas. Thanks

[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] Tidbits:
They do have both colors in some stores. I went to 3 stores. 2 franchise, and 1 corporate. The big franchise store had both colors as well as corporate. The smaller franchise one only had one color which was the gray.

You're absolutely correct. It just depends on what region you live in. Fit example, like I said, here in Vegas no store, corporate or otherwise, got gunmetal gray delivered to them, but you know what every store had? Both colors available for BOTH styles of the galaxy s6! Tmo is in sammy's pocket.

So, yesterday I go to the corporate store down the road b/c wanted to check the silver color (I'm not happy with the Gunmetal).

Anyways, they did have a gray M9 and when I turned it on found out that it has the notification that the update .33 is ready to install. This store is a mile from my office so the update deployment schedule is not location based I guess grrr.

I'm still within my 14-day period and I truly hope the update comes before [so I can compare results] that or I'm going back to M8.

Camera quality improvements

Update to the HTC camera is hitting the HTC One M9

An important update will begin rolling out to the HTC One M9 camera improving the overall image quality.

Expected results are:

Reduced blur in photos thanks to enhanced exposure times

Increased sharpness in photos making them clear but with a less artificial feeling.

Reduced image noise

Improved low light performance and HDR processing

Better Auto Exposure interface performance when tapping the screen

The camera update is included in the launch software of the Verizon and Sprint variants. The T-Mobile camera update will come in the form of a user initiated over-the-air update on April 20th with the AT&T update coming on April 21st.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] minotauri:
After using a lot of Nexus or Nexus-like devices (OnePlus), I've gone back to HTC on this one. The last HTC phone I had prior to the M9 was the HTC G2 and HTC G1, which were essentially nexus-like devices too. I never was a fan of Sense back then, but this version of Sense is usable to me. It's not overloaded with junk and doesn't have a weird UI to me. But that said, my battery has been draining like crazy without the battery saver mode on. I can't pinpoint why either. It seems the only thing really draining is the Android system itself, which could be whatever HTC has done to it. I already used some tweaks to disable wake-lock on Google Play Services (not sure if that's an issue on this device or not, but might as well do it anyway). I'm installing XPOSED now and going to amplify the phone and see if that helps too.

I've seen a little bit of an improvement on the camera with the new firmware. I can't say that I'm super impressed with it yet. My limited tests so far have been photos in my house which was dimly lit at the time and photos turned out average. I'll give it a go more later.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] minotauri:
in a quick update to my last comments, I was getting massive battery drain before -- something like watching my phone drop 10% within a few minutes of usage, and even 20% after just a couple hours of mostly idle time. I ended up installing Greenify and Amplify and forcing Google Location Services to activate at a much longer interval and then force hibernating a few apps, mainly FACEBOOK and then let my phone off the charger all night. The phone didnt even drop 1% in 8 hours! happy times.

Not to sure how he saw VAST improvements by flashing stock, taking OTA then going back to ARHD..ARHD has been on the same firmware that just got pushed to T-Mobile M9 but the international firmware... Which has had the same camera update since the beginning of the month... I could be wrong tho
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] minotauri:
What issue are you running into?

Easiest way is to just flash the RUU update direct from HTC which has the OTA update included. It will probably delete your internal storage though.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] TorrentzRock:
You are in fact, wrong. ROM, Firmware = 2 different things. Flashing ROM does NOT change the firmware and flashing firmware does not change the ROM. ROM > Operating system (think Windows) which runs atop the Firmware (think BIOS). Quite often upgrading to a newer version of Windows will require an update to the bios to allow proper communication between the operating system and the hardware. ;)

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chancelucky:
When my Tab S 10.5 was running Kit Kat, it worked perfectly with my hifimediy Sabre dac. I was very excited when I auto-updated to Lollipop, which did seem to help battery life, speed, etc. It's just that the Dac stopped working. It clearly recognizes the device. Sounds even come out of it, it's just badly distorted and starts and stops.

Is this a lollipop problem or do Ihave to see if hifimediy will write a driver for lollipop? Is there any way to solve it other than going back to kitkat?
