[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
FlashFire has known issues with making backups, it's because the FAT32 file system can't handle files larger than 4 GB and Samsung's official OS is much too big; so FF usually encounters this shortcoming. I know the last couple updates have attempted to address this issue, but not entirely successfully. FF is also a work in progress.

I was able to use FF to update my locked bootloader AT&T Galaxy S4 Active while keeping root. It might seem counter-intuitive, but I think right now FF is more dependable for flashing things than making backups. And it's a moot point until your model number gets an official update, you don't want to be messing around with the wrong device's Odin files
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] lozohcum:
Hi guys I'm new here. Today I bought Galaxy Tab 4 T230 (7", WiFi version), do you know if there will be any update for this tablet? Did anyone ask samsung on twitter or other social media?

Android 4.4.2 is pretty old...
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
The only ones who know for sure when the updates will be is Samsung and they won't give any specific ETA. The 10.1" Wi-Fi and LTE (T530 and T535) versions just got the lollipop update yesterday. This would imply more updates are soon to follow, but that is certainly no guarantee. Anything else is pure speculation
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] MarckozZ:
Hey lozohcum, remember you from the Xperia j and tipo forum back in the old CM11 days!! Yes, the T230 is going to have a taste of Lollipop, but we dont know when. Several sites say that all the Tab 4 series will be updated to L... Hope to see that soon!

Cheers..

I guess tab 4 8.0 and 7.0 will get updates in next 3-4 weeks. they are just modified tab S roms.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] mrkhigh:
The 7.0 uses the Marvell chipset, so I don't think they would be modified tab s ROMs the kernel should be way different. Oddly I think the carrier tab 7.0s are not Marvell.

CF-Autoroot (CF-Autoroot-matissewifi-matissewifizs-smt530.tar.md5)also works fine to get root with the new firmware lollipop ;)
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thelous:
Also TWRP method seems to be working for 10.1 users!
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] Dudash:
TWRP method is definitely the best method to root. Using CF-Autoroot causes the device to be considered custom forever unless you re-flash the firmware. If you root via TWRP, you can still re-flash the original recovery.img and the device will think it's Official.
[Galaxy Tab 4 General] thelous:
So you are applied to get update even its rooted? wow didnt know that!

[Sony Xperia ZR] manilenio:
Hi,

I'm asking this question because the Merriam Webster app doesn't display the IPA symbol for the word "awe" in 4.3, but displays it fine in 4.4.4. The symbol I'm referring to is /ó/. In 4.3, it shows as /'/ only. I've had this problem ever since and I've reported it to the devs of the app but they have not been able to fix it. Recently, when I was forced to update to 4.4.4 and installed the MW app again, I saw that it was displayed correctly so I was happy. But I decided to downgrade back to 4.3 because 4.4.4 prevented me from saving to my external sdcard, and some of my apps didn't work right. Once back on 4.3, I reinstalled the MW app again and voila, the problem is back.

Does anybody know if this is possible, and if yes, how to do it please? TIA!
[Sony Xperia ZR] vanbroekhoven.wim:
On xda you can find a lot of flashable zips to replace the default fonts, also xperia fonts.
[Sony Xperia ZR] manilenio:
done!

thank you for the reply. i researched further here in XDA and found Fontster made by Chromium (download it from the Google market), which replaced the system font of 4.3 (roboto) to 4.4 (roboto condensed) without having to flash anything (but root is required). i'm happy, the merriam webster app is now showing the IPA symbol correctly, and my phone looks more modern to boot :)

thanks again, this thread can now be closed.

Please let me know what is the easiest way to update HBOOT ( and also s-off the phone)

You should first get S-Off to update your hboot. I used rummrunner for that and it was easy. Afyer that you can flash another hboot and get rid of that red warning too

Sent from nowhere over the air...
[HTC One S] mraabs:
Thank you Rapier, I was able to flash to hboot 2.15; now I have one more question, in your experience which one is better 2.16 or 2.15?

I did the following steps (if any one is intrested to know):

1. used rumrunner (as Rapier said) to s-off my phone

2. Downloaded the hboot in the post (menstioned in the next step) and changed the cid number in the file "android-info.txt" to my phones cid which is "ORANGE202"

2. followed the steps in this post.
[HTC One S] Rapier:
There are pros and cons to each...

Mainly the difference is the partition layout. 2.16 use a single partition for both system and data so you'll get more storage and space for apps. Downside is that it is an unofficial hboot (comes from a leaked, never released HTC ROM) and all ROMs support the official 2.15 hboot. Some have builds for 2.16 as well but those are unofficial and you cannot post bugs or expect them to be solved if they're not bugs encountered on 2.15 also. So 2.15 has better support from this point of view.

You should check in dev section which ROMs are specifically built for 2.16 and flash only those if you decide to flash that hboot

There was also an issue in recovery that doesn't allow sdcard to be mounted on 2.16 but I'm not sure if latest recoveries fixed that. Beware that also for recovery you must flash one built for 2.16

That's mainly all about this

I am going to move away from textra and need a new sms/mms app that is simple, lightweight and fast..

AOSP SMS which comes with DirtyUnicorn ROM

Hangouts

Google messenger

Any suggestions? Thanks
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] SX86:
I use Google Messenger. I find it is lightweight, doesn't have many tweaking options, but love that each contact can be assigned a different color.

Hangouts is nice if you also have Hangouts contacts...

[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] micmars:
Nothing compares to AOSP mms, in terms of feature set, lean footprint and overall flexibility...one can choose from a vast array of sharing options, attach media from a multitude of sources (as opposed to the retarded way that messenger does it, with its attach options of real-time photo or recent pics), signature line, drop-in notification feature that allows you to respond pretty much on the fly...the list goes on and on.

And unlike these choices from the play store, the apk is less than 5 MB, and when residing in system, priv-app, it'll remain lean and work swiftly.

Play Store alternatives with even half of the features balloon up to 20+ MB before a single option is set.

And it's themable, with the smallest of overlay apks to fully theme it.

Why this isn't in every AOSP rom is just baffling.

Is it possible to flash the AOSP Messaging app on Chroma ROM running 5.1.1 ?
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] micmars:
I'm using it now...I just grabbed it from a different AOSP 5.1.1 rom ,and pushed the folder and apk to system, priv-app, set permissions, and rebooted.

Unfortunately, it can't be completely themed in that rom, inasmuch as the commits to do so are not present. I made the request and it was rejected, which is the right of the dev, and which I respect.

I'm not complaining at all, but just know that if you put it in Chroma, the action bar will be themed, but it'll be white backgrounds everywhere.

Ugh.

Evolve sms I have been using it for about 2 years now. I like it a lot. A lot of customizations. Plus a lot of updates and development. Hundreds of themes on the play store most are free. I tried it and never went back. It is that good. I have never had one problem with it.
[Nexus 6 Themes and Apps] micmars:
Just download Benzo (it's not a block build, so one can actually see what is in the rom zip), unzip, and push the folder and apk to system, priv-app, fix permissions, and reboot.

Just make certain that you have no mms layers applied, or the app will force close.

I often have poor signal, so there are two things that stand out:

Beyond that, it's got a nice interface and decent enough customization.
