According to pairing test the problem doesn't cause by kernel nor application but because I also did multiple pair this fitness tracking Band to another phone , after I pairing it alone with your CM 12.1 the problem is solved. Thank you and will keep untouched.

You just have to look for a kitkat Rom thread in this forum and simply flash it - ROM and its respective kernel. There's nothing more to do than this. :)

GPS not working?

Hi,

I have searched through the forums for the HOV and i can't find an answer to my problem, so hopefully you guys can help.

I have just unlocked and flashed the latest CM12.1 onto my dads phone (straight from stock HTC) and without GAPPS. Everything so far is fantastic, except for GPS is not working.

I've tried various potential fixes by updating the etc\gps.conf file, however GPS still appears not to be working.

thanks

GPS is working in cm12.1, I didn't have any problem with it. Try a full wipe and reinstall.

I was bricked my HOV once by accident and i found some information about how to use testpoint to force HS-USB QDLoader mode, but i don't know if this would help.

use testpoint to force HS-USB QDLoader mode: for this de-power board, shortcut specified point in the schematics to GND with the help of a needle, attach battery and then insert USB cable into PC, wait while phone enumerates as HS-USB QDLoader and then remove the needle;

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramon2045:
Hi

With my friend purchased 2 Nexus 6. (I bought it from Netherland and my friend in U.S) In our city we have 3G signal. Most of the time I cant connect to 3G connection and only can use 2G (EDGE) but my friend at same time and same place and same operator connect to 3G!

we have the same build number on our phones.

today I try to solve my issue and got some information about this problem that I’ll explain it. Is there anyone can help me to solve it?

In setting >> More >> Celluar networks >> Prefereed network type when i select LTE a green circle added that show now LTE is selected (picture 1) but when I close this menu and again open it , LTE is not selected (picture 2). I tried more than 10 times in different places, even flash latest nexus 6 factory image and test with my friend sim.

After that I tried with *#*#4636#*#* secret code and went to Phone information saw my preferred network type is : LTE/GSM auto (PRL) , and my friend’s phone is LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL).

I changed my settings to LTE/GSM/CDMA. again when i close this page and reopen it it automatically changed to LTE/GSM. (picture 3)

All of our settings are the same. but just when we dial *#*#4636#*#* and go to phone information >> select top menu >> select radio band we have diffrent datas.

My phone just have USA band but my friend has 3 more option (picture 4)!

I hope someone can help me to solve this terrible problem.

P.S. becuase of poor 3G signal in some areas I can't choice WMCDA Only option

thanks
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
first off you and your friend have different nexus 6. sounds like your friend has a US version and you have the international version. the difference between the two is the radio/frequencies included.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramon2045:
ok. but why internatinal version has problem with this type of connection?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
honestly, im clueless. what frequencies does your provider use? your friends phone coyld possibly have a better connection to whatever frequency that your provider provides.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramon2045:
Just not have better connection. they have different radio band .

Hey all,

I've been running Pac-ROM 4.4.4 for quite a while with hardly any issues, but I recently noticed some touch errors such as the home button and task button activate simultaneously when I only press one button. It sometimes takes a few taps before only the home button is registered. Also on the right side of the screen I can't pull down the notifications bar; that only works in the middle-left of the screen. Because of this, I decided to upgrade my ROM to the newest beta version of Pac-ROM lollipop.

Now my issue: the new ROM had issues with google store and services. Instantly upon booting up, youtube kept spamming my screen saying it couldn't run. I also had notifications for google play store, so I uninstalled both youtube and the play store (after clearing cache for a simpler fix). That got rid of the pop-ups, but I still couldn't access my google account. I browsed some threads and they suggested to remove my google account and clear cache for google services. This didn't fix the problem so I decided to flash back to the stable 4.4.4 and reinstall the apps I removed.

Here is where I foolishly realized I never updated my gapps to 5.x.x. Being too late, I thought I'd just flash the gapps and lollipop rom after getting things back to normal in 4.4.4. Unfortunately, I was never able to boot after flashing 4.4.4.

Now I am stuck in a boot loop, do not have debugging enabled thanks to the update (so I can't use adb), my recovery won't boot using power + vol down, and my computer doesn't even recognize my phone when using LG mobile support tool.

Other things that may help:

LG G2 ls980zve

TWRP 2.8.x.x

cannot access adb or fastboot

cannot access recovery

cannot turn on phone

updated lg drivers as of today, but computer doesn't recognize my device in device manager

Hi everyone,

where can i download the latest STOCK ROM for my SM-G900F? I would think of sammobile but i don't know which one is the latest and which should i download, any help please?

Better if there is a stock rooted and debloated rom, but if not i would be happy with a stock with no modifications, because i had best performance and battery life on stock, now on custom roms i just have problems and want to clear that...

Thanks in advance

In the past on kitkat I used a build.prop edit to enable the nav keys on my note 3. It worked fine and I used rom toolbox's build.prop editor to do so. Now however I'm on lollipop and I'm rooted but I'm not sure if that will work.

The reason I'm asking here instead of just tying it out is because I don't have a backup to revert to and I've seen some conflicting answers while googling this. So an anyone confirm that adding "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" will still work?

-thank you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] gabesir:
Make a back up of your build.prop.

Like this

Copy the build.prop and paste it in the same system folder and replace the name.

/system/build.proporiginal

Add what you need to and reboot... if it dont work you can use twrp file manager to delete the build.prop and rename the original.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mechayoshi:
Thank you. I'll uh try later. I found an alternative in the meanwhile that works great. But first I need to get a custom recovery.

Build.prop edit worked for me
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mechayoshi:
Cool. Great to know. Do you have an screenshots?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] evilvoice:
With that string added to build.prop, it breaks screenshot (even palm motion). If they are important, I would find another way to take screenshots or wait for xposed.

I can tell you what the buttons look like and what they do, but that's it.

The first button is a backwards "Play" button and it is the same as "Back" but long pressing it does nothing.

The second looks like an "o" centered vertically and horizontally and is the "home" button. Long pressing brought up options for me of Google search, Tasker, or Pressy.

The third button looks like "Stop" from a music player and is the app switcher (recent apps). No long press.

The icons are white and the bar is black

I searched for a way to edit their function but couldn't find anything that didn't require xposed or Softkeyz app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Mechayoshi:
Yeah i tried it just know and its a bit more messed up than it was in kitkat. Stock apps look strange etc. Well thank you for being the first to test for me.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sackstrap:
The setup: Galaxy S3 (d2att SGH-I747) running Slim Kat 4.4.4. Bootloader is I747UCUFNJ1 and the recovery is TWRP v2.8.6.0. The phone already rooted with a custom ROM on it. At one point in the past, somebody had tried to install CyanogenMod, but I don't know what they did.

The issue: When I boot my phone, if flashes a "Samsung" logo briefly, then the SlimKat logo, then the SlimKat boot animation in that order. But, when I boot the phone into recovery, it flashes the "Samsung" logo, then a logo that says "Samsung Galaxy SIII" with the cyanogen guy logo below it, then the TWRP splash screen. I am not running Cyanogenmod and am wondering why the second logo appears and how to get rid of it. This has not affect on the performance of the phone, but is something I would like to figure out to better understand how the phone works. Before you tell me to Google this, I have spent countless hours researching this issue and have found only one thread on another forum that mentions this problem with no replies. I cannot find anything about boot logos for recovery, how they get there, how they are changed, where they reside. Keep in mind, I am NOT talking about the system logo or the system boot animation.

What I have tried: When I got the phone, it was on MJB bootloader and have have since upgraded it using Odin and instructions/files from enewman17 and postings on this site. I have flashed his stock rooted ROMS (both MJB and NJ1). I have installed several custom Roms (Cyanogen, SlimKat, Stock_rooted), several recoveries using both the app and Odin (CWM, TWRP, and philz_touch), and at least one Kernel (Majestic 1.0.9). This boot logo remains. The only success I had in getting it to disappear was by flashing progressively older TWRPs and it took back until 2.5.0.0 before it dissapeared. TWRP 2.5.0.0 doesn't even use a logo, so it was probably still there, just not used. The phone works great with everything I have done, it is just this logo that remains.

Any thoughts or suggestions?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] m1batt1:
Here is what I believe you are encountering. If I am not mistaken Slimroms uses pretty much the stock CM kernel but they have replaced the splash screen to be of Slimroms design. However when you boot into recovery I'm guessing there is a different splash screen that is accessed which is still what cyanogenmod put in the kernel.

Could be wrong but I believe that is the case.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sackstrap:
Possibly, but I think I have ruled that scenario out. I have flashed a different kernel and a stock ROM but the CM recovery boot logo remains.

[UB ONLY] [AROMA] [dual - CWM & TWRP] (4 in 1) Root & Recovery & Busybox for Lolipop

Hi, I just wrote my own version of the busybox, root and dual recovery (CWM voldown or TWRP volup) -> for Lolipop, sharing it with you.

How to install:

- boot into recovery (if you don't have recovery than extract boot.img from any cm11 rom and boot it with "fastboot boot boot.img" , press volume button to enter into recovery mode)

- install zip package trought recovery

Enjoy! ;)

Do you think that if I root with this, then flash stock kernel and restore TA, I'll not loose root? Just CWM? Sorry for noob question... But tried with creating flasheable zip, with another method and root don't work properly :(

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] munjeni:
You no need to flash kernel! Command aka: fastboot boot boot.img doing temporary boot cm11 boot image, it will not install cm11 boot image, will just boot them temporary! After reboot your original kernel will remain intact. Also you can restore TA without loosing root. Just read instructions carefully and you are done! :)

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] vyaskd:
does it works on stock rom with stock kernel?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] charos:
That's what I have. judging by munjeni's reply for "unlocked device" , I assume you need to unlock the bootloader first to boot that cm11 boot.img ,thus the reason of my failed attempt.

I will wait a bit and see whether I can get root in lollipop without unlocking the bootloader.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] munjeni:
Yes, but you need to unlock bootloader in order to install it! By the way you can relock your bootloader to previous state (by restoring ta backup after installing things), theres no reason waiting for root for locked bootloader since things is so easy. Just restore ta backup and your bootloader will go intact like never unlocked (but be very carefull with it)! :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] moonryder:
or just relock the bootloader with Flashtool (this does not restore your DRM keys). With munjeni´s method by restoring TA Backup the DRM keys will be restored too.

Why you flashed boot.img???? Just temporary boot them via: fastboot boot boot.img, DO NOT flash them!

With unlocked bootloader i have succeded in installing SuperSU and dual recovery very easely. Thumb up for ur work and the directions were just short and simple BUT still excelent. I linked what boot.img i have used, just on flashtool go to hotboot and as file for boot choose the one i have provided. Flash the .zip file u have dowloaded from here, install thru recovery and thats it. If u dont know hot to enter in recovery just press volume DOWN ONCE and as soon as u see the blue blinking led (it will show RIGHT after choosing the boot.img thru FlashTool - so keep ur eye on that if u miss that moment do ALL from the very start) . When u do ALL and u dont see SuperSU in app menu just install it from Google Play. There u go. FYI im on 5.0.2 version number 14.5.a.0.270 !

Please dont judge me or tell how i mistaken something, just want to help others, cuz i know how much i tried to root and install recovery on Z1 compact running Lolipop .

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] C0derbear:
As this time, no, the G900A with the completely stock 5.x load can not be rooted.

Since the bootloader is locked, and they bumped one of the counters with the 5.x loader, you can not install a previous version. You're welcome to try but if it fails you will likely have an unrecoverable brick - unless the AT&T Store or Samsung Experience Store has the complete ODIN file to re-flash your device with.

Until someone determines a way of rooting the stock L load, you're stuck without.
