I'll cut you slack since its your first post but normally would have ripped you a new ass for posting such a useless question in this thread. by all means flash your hermes with what ever you want. it does not need to be superCID using the new RUU but if you dont have splV7 on your phone good luck unbricking it!

I recently rooted my phone and I would like to flash a ROM which will help prolong my battery life. Do I need to downgrade to a previous version before doing so?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] audit13:
You need to flash a custom recovery in order to flash custom ROMs. Rooting before flashing a custom recovery is not required.

I just did this over the weekend. I used an app from the play store called flashify and flashed the latest TWRP and had no issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] HitchslapHTC:
Hi,

I hope someone can help me. I rooted my G850-F and created a TWRP 2.8.1.1 backup before installing Xposed and a couple of modules. Everything was working fine for a couple of required reboots but now I'm stuck in a bootloop. I thought I'd just restore the TWRP backup, but it didn't change anything! I restored it even twice, how can that be and what do I do now?

Cheers
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] Mr.Nice.ba:
Try to wipe data, cache, dalvik before restoring backup...
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] HitchslapHTC:
Thanks that did it! Was it because of an Xposed module? Or could it have been a faulty titanium restore?

Hey guys,

I just need to know all the options available in HAM7 in order to switch-off the WI-FI whenever I pressed the lock-button or screen is off or phone in sleep mode?

However, Can anyone tells me how long does the phone needs to enter the "sleep mode" if it's screen timeout is set to 15seconds + all apps are protected "restricted" from (Running in background + Push-notification)?

Thanks

[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alkot:
Hey Alex,

Thanks for your help, but i think there is already an option in the Huawei Ascend mate 7 phones for doing such thing but i can't really find it, the reason that i don't need to download any (Battery Saving Programs, that the phone is packed with the same utility too! called "Phone Manager") ,, it was working with me, but seems to be i done something (disable something or protect something "Restricting it") from doing it's normal function that i still don't figure it out what is it!

Thanks for your reply, I've tried this app and i wasn't knew what does "Smart WIFI" means until Now, so i would make it my last choice to download this app again, in case if i didn't find a way to manage it within the phone settings.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexre123:
Go to settings - > WI-FI -> scroll down -> Advanced Settings -> Keep Wi- Fi on during sleep -> Never

I have it on " Always" but you can choose "Never"

Hope it helps :)
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alkot:
Unfortunately, I've the same options on "Never (increase data usage)"

But still the wifi is on, that means either the phone doesn't enter into sleep mode after 2-10mins or more or either it's not the option we're looking for!
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexre123:
Yeah, same here, I tested on 'Never' and I have the same result, so don't worry it's not from your phone, probably it's from the firmware I guess.

You can test the Smart Wi fi option from the Smart Battery Saver app to see if it works.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Easy Computer:
I had it on the default setting and my wifi and it will dc when it goes to sleep after a few mins. I dnt know how long exactly but when i turn on the screen i can see the wifi is off and will connect after.

the thing is im on b120 the stock that i had on my tl10.

Sent from my HUAWEI MT7-TL10
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alkot:
Me too, I Haven't upgrade the EMUI Firmware yet, Its still have the default firmware came with the phone out of the box, which is the same one you've it already, But your options in the settings is set to "Notify" ? because that was my default option!
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alkot:
Yes, I did test the App once again, and it really does what it says PLUS it really makes a difference in battery life better than before!

Great App, I wanna thank you for suggesting this app to me :good:

Thanks Again :)
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexre123:
I'm on b120 also now and wi-fi doesn't turn off during sleep when I leave it to 'never' . But it's not that important, I don't know how much battery will save anyway :D

Seems like option 'Always allow scanning' in Advanced Wi-Fi settings switched on. This option allow google location to scan Wi-Fi when it is turned off
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alkot:
As you can see in the following picture it's my settings, without using the app "Smart Battery Saver" suggested by member in previous comments the device couldn't been able to Switch WIFI automatically, unless I use the app provided.

However, the phone was working properly but I don't know what happened to that option later on.

All my apps is restricted from running on background and app notification is restricted too, Sync is switched off. I wonder what eels remained.. lol
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hoooooy:
I found option to control Wi-Fi in the Viber application settings (you can see this option on the attached screenshot). May be you using something app like this?

And IMHO restrictions working only for automatic memory clearing if it's not enough for active application, but I could be wrong.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexre123:
I found out if you want wi fi turning off during sleep do this: Go to settings - > WI-FI -> scroll down -> Advanced Settings -> Keep Wi- Fi on during sleep -> Only when plugged in.

I think this was the setting you were looking for. With this setting my wifi disables every time during sleep and reconnects automatic when i turn the screen on.
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alkot:
It seems to be doesn't work, I've tried it just in few minutes, and changed my display screen time-out for 15-seconds to go to sleep quickly, still it doesn't work after several minutes, so my question is for (How long does the phone consume from time to "enter sleep mode/device WI-FI switched Off") with your phone?
[Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexre123:
I think it must be in sleep mode at least 5 to 10 minutes. If you just turn off the screen and turn back on, the wifi will not disabled. Test it. Let the phone off for 5-10 minutes to have time to enter sleep mode. If you want to disable the wifi immediately every time you turn off the screen, the only solution is that app.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esheesle:
On stock 5.0.2 and been having no issues until few minutes ago. I noticed the phone getting warm and burning battery. Killed some apps,etc.. Then I noticed the camera light (flash) was on. Tried to open the camera to stop it but failed as camera was unavailable.

A shutdown did the trick but very odd. Anyone else experience similar?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LitoNi:
Just a tiny bug, had it once and the flash light button was gone too, just force stop the camera app in settings and it should solve it.

Hey guys. i just picked up a 2nd 8525 today. For experiment's sake, I wanted to try to dump the ROM from my original 8525 and flash it to my new 8525. So, to keep from confusion ill define the two.

#1 - My first 8525 with specs in my sig

#2 - Cingular 8525 with WM5 and HardSPLv7

As you can see, I flashed hardspl to #2, and thats all I have done. I dumped my black2.5 rom from #1, and reconstructed it to an OS.nb using awaiter, imgfs tools, and custel's 2.5 as the spare OS.

I was thinking about flashing the 1.01mfg bootloader so that I could flash my os.nb to #2. But that does not include the extrom, right? So, what should I do about this? Should I flash a coplete cooked wm6 rom, and then downgrade the BL and flash my os.nb from #1?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] kevino:
Why dont you just use nbhtool to create a nbh and flash it using latest RUUWrapper and Hard SPL V7
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] jm012a9749:
can't you dump the EXT_FLA Part00 using pdocread and then write it onto your new Hermes using pdocwrite?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] peezy:
I think im going to flash a cooked rom to the new device (one that includes the cingular ext rom). after that I can make the OS.nb a .nbh and flash the new OS with RUU_wrapper and hardspl. thanks for the ideas guys!

[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Mitko:
Would be nice to see an actual quote of Samsung UK's response.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Loulou-13:
As i already have said ,it's totaly

wrong !

no official Lollipop for S4-mini ...... :rolleyes:

Samsung have said that it's an internal memory limitation .... 8 Go is not enought ! :rolleyes:

They don't want to do effort !!! :mad: ......... and with ALL of theirs "bloats" ,it's not surprising .. pffff !!!!! :rolleyes:

That's why the only way is to have an "unofficial" Lollipop exploit with "S6 lollipop preject" team ( ....or maybe with ploiki's team !!! :fingers-crossed: ) that's a big challenge !!! :p

!!!! Forget Samsung's poor development ! think "XDA" the best !!!!!!!
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] sasank360:
Samsung uk did not convey message to public.

But they do communicate with carriers as to their approval of the "bloat" on part of carrier.

ThreeUK said their version of lollipop failed testing and concluded there won't be lp due to mem limits.

But ThreeIreland said their software was approved and seeding will begin shortly.

That is the summary. But usually no carrier gives more details about discussions with oems
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] minOu45:
it all seems very confusing. One carrier says they will release a Lollipop update, another says they cannot. A response from Samsung regarding an official Lollipop update for the international models has not been published yet but if a carrier decided to update theirs and it was possible, then we may just see an official update from Samsung.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Loulou-13:
A carrier ?! no ,i don't think at all ... ;)

If there are no development of "Lollipop" firmware source-base released (and decided ! ) by the manufacturer , a mobil operator can't ask for this Lollipop version because it need "new" work .

they are only interrested by the "money" ! they prefer to seel new devices..... that offert "good" support for a long period ...

An example :on December 2014 when they have come out these "gear watches" ,they have updated very quickly on "very" short period many modems and firmwares for compatibilty for many devices ( our S4-mini with modem ****UCNK1 and superior ) ......just for cell !!! :rolleyes:

BUT we never have had KK 4.4.4 ..... and no effort for to include news features of S5 S5-mini /note4 .... :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] sasank360:
All s4 mini models have same chipsets. So ground work will be identical for all models. The UI and prebuilt apps will be same too. All they need to do is to make other essentials like RIL, multi-sim, nfc etc which differ between models. Also all s4 minis have 1.5gb ram.

So if samsung works on lollipop they will consider 2 important things. 1.Difficulty 2.Demand.

Demand is plenty. Difficulty is more in case of carrier branded models. It is relatively hassle free with international models. If one carrier confirms the update

[which they did], then international models will get it too.

you will be sure at 100% that if there are an eventual update , here on XDA you will be informed NEAR SOMES SMALLS MINUTES after release ! :D ;)

But i'm convinced that there won't be official Lollipop firmware ... :rolleyes: ( but i hope that i'm wrong ! )
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] j0ep0:
I agree with you, normally Samsung announces the update and not the carriers. Would surprise me if Samsung has changed it's update policy.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] Loulou-13:
There are not "official" announcement !!!!! it's "just" a poor simple TWEET ....... and there are many tweets and lots of articles in contradiction......
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] znayver:
youmobile contacted samsung and the update will be there for our device.but samsung dont write a exact time for the release so be patience just a few weeks and the update will be her

A major confusion happened yesterday when UK

branch of "Three" carrier tweeted that the Galaxy S4

mini will not be getting Android 5.0 Lollipop update due

to Memory limitation, after few hours "ThreeIreland"

branch tweeted that the S4 mini update is approved

and passed the testing process.

Today, we reached out to Samsung to get a clearance

about this. Low-end and mid-range users are NOT

forgotten by Samsung, the Korean giant is working hard

to bring Lollipop love to as many devices as possible,

but time is tight (posted by youmobile)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] j0ep0:
Would be nice to have multiple, more known sources. Again I hope 5.0.1 will come, but "wait a couple of weeks" is a bit too vague.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] minOu45:
Three ireland said to me that s4 mini lollipop cancelled for them.

================

Samsung Information is accurate, only unlocked version will get the update.

================
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] znayver:
so we will have the update for all s4 mini i9195/90/92 :)
[Galaxy S 4 Mini General] MixoMaxoViper:
Wait, official will get and carriers no?

If Samsung will release LP for S4 Mini, all carriers will got it!, no only GENERIC version.

Ofc, It's only my opinion.

Guys,

Don't know why or how this happened but from one day to another my tablet has lost the capacity to produce sound for example with music, youtube etc.. But the speakers DO work because when I press the shutter button on camera it makes the kwnown sound, when a notification arrives it sounds it and so forth....

I've changed roms, made factory reset, now I'm back with the stock samsung rom but still can't get sound to work with basically any applicacion.

With headphones there isn't a problem, its just the speakers. So weird.

Any ideas?

I have a feeling the speakers are damaged from water damage or something to that lines, this isn't fixable with software
[Galaxy S6 General] zathus:
Many of you already know that Samsung or Google, neither is taking full credit has removed the ok Google from any screen option. This is utter bull crap. The fact that our phone is being crippled without any explanation or reasoning is unacceptable. we as the Android community need to be loud about this. Whether you use the Service or not isn't the issue. You should at least have the option. We need to be loud about this. Bombard them with our inquiry as to why this feature is no longer there. Below is a few links to get you started. I'm still working on finding a direct contact number for Google so that we can call them. the squeaky wheel gets the oil!

I frankly couldn't care less about that feature but I understand your concerns. I'm pretty sure Google will eventually return the feature after they make some tweaks.
[Galaxy S6 General] zathus:
To me it's like is suddenly Gmail no longer had a spam folder. yes you still have gmail. and it essentially function the same. But a feature, and maybe a key feature to some people is removed and its only for one particular phone. now it's already been established that spam folder works just fine. But without any reason or explanation its just gone. most people wouldn't care. just a few more emails you have to delete. But to the few that really want it it's a big deal.

I Drive a lot. A lot of us do. And that hands-free experience of okay Google is essential. It actually might become a deal breaker for me. its not there yet but it might be . let's hope I don't have to make that decision and google just fixes this
[Galaxy S6 General] BCSC:
Your problem is not a Google problem. You will be barking up the wrong tree. Install Nova launcher and see for yourself. It is Touchwiz that is lacking the feature. Talk to Samsung about it.
[Galaxy S6 General] zathus:
Samsung can't remove it. And didn't. They may have influenced Google to do it but google is the only one that could turn that feature off. Remember, it was on for the first few weeks. Then it was randomly turned off with out any app update or software.
[Galaxy S6 General] tommybrrr:
What a logic. If a different launcher brings it back, it's Samsung's fault, otherwise it's Google's fault.
[Galaxy S6 General] piccit:
I don't think you understand how the feature is supposed to work. Turning Nova's feature on only gives you listening when you're on a home page. The full Google feature listens from any screen, no matter the app (and from screen off if you're plugged in).

Nova's feature was rolled out before Google's came to all devices and they're not really related.

That the feature is missing has nothing to do with the launcher.
[Galaxy S6 General] tube517:
This is a pretty big issue. I suspect the latest update broke it. I liked having the "From any screen" and from a locked screen feature.
[Galaxy S6 General] androidizen:
Humm looks like a Samsung tweak to me and coincides with the battery drain fix we got through Samsung Services app. I'm really not a fan of always on Hot words and the like id rather my device was saving its battery than slamming its self listening for a word.

The choice should be their though but my guess is the battery hit just wasnt worth it for the very small number of users who want / need the feature. as other have said new launcher or root/rom and fix the problem yourself

Chances of Samsung "Fixing" this very very very very very very small.

[Galaxy S6 General] robdec17:
Samsung definitely removed it. Just got my phone last Thursday and I had the option on the phone, as soon as I received the Samsung push for the battery drain it was gone.
[Galaxy S6 General] barondebxl:
I personally couldn't care less about it but hey, if you need it you need it. I don't feel as my phone is "crippled " , didn't even notice it.
[Galaxy S6 General] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
I've actually started using S-Voice now (don't kill me) and it's actually really nice. The fact that I can activate it from the lockscreen with the screen off, NOT charging, is a big win too.
[Galaxy S6 General] JLishere:
Hotward detection while the screen is off is the one feature I miss most from the Nexus 6.
[Galaxy S6 General] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
I would give S voice a try. I'm liking it more than I thought I would. It's just on par with Google in speed and it has more functionality.
[Galaxy S6 General] Divine_Madcat:
Perhaps i am weird (or maybe its working in an office), but i have never had the urge to yell at my phone to search.. or do things.... Ill admit i have used my wear to do some texts in the car, but even then i feel pretty silly.

That said, i am not a fan of removing features, but i also air on the side of caution. If an update removed it, i would suspect it was for a cause less nefarious than an evil samsung, and more likely to fix a bug or battery issue. But till we hear something official, its only really guessing...
[Galaxy S6 General] EsotericPunk:
I'm really ticked off about it. I left my Moto X 2014 for the S6 because of the camera. I probably wouldn't have if I had known that I wouldn't have the full Google Voice functionality on this phone; I typically use Google Voice to interact with my phone several times a day. What really gets me upset is that I didn't realize it until the DAY AFTER my 2 week return period... Luckily, I have a Moto 360 that I can use Google Voice with. This was a crappy move by Samsung. I hope they bring it back.
