[AT&T LG G2] Jaernyx:
Hey guys. I've been trying to restore my D800 to stock firmware (no root) and I was having a lot of trouble getting my COM ports changed.

Finally realized I hadn't been entering download mode, it skips to fastboot, so I'm assuming the download mode is corrupted. Asides from that the phone works fine otherwise.

It does say "Download Mode" with the dots for about a second then moves to fastboot.

Is there any remedy to this? I have access to fastboot and recovery and I've been searching around (albeit for the wrong things for a lot of it.) but can't find anything specific to this issue as the phone isn't bricked at all.

I'd just really like to be able to restore it to stock. Thanks!
[AT&T LG G2] azvargas:
I have a similar issue. Cant change COM ports (they dont even show up in device manager). I can get to Download Mode, but the Flash Tool and PC doesnt recognize the phone is even plugged in.
[AT&T LG G2] LazyG:
Do you have sound in Windows (device added/removed ) when you connect phone in download mode to PC? It might be drivers issue
[AT&T LG G2] jordant2:
Install autorec and it will fix you partitions and correct your download mode.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danktle:
I know that Xposed has a module that allows you to invert system colors, as well as in other areas. What I am looking for is something that basically inverts all text to show white characters against a black background... but here's the catch:

I don't want to invert the colors of images, be them PNG, TIFF, JPEG, GIF or whatever.

It seems to me that color inversion is a wise way to save battery life, especially on an AMOLED screen, so why there aren't numerous options or apps to provide such a feature is kind of beyond me at the moment.

I have a Note 3, and there is color inversion, but I don't know anyone who wants to look at inverted pictures. Computer power users are all too familiar with reverse text being much easier on the eye and more legible. If I have to root, I'm not opposed to it, but only if there's something that truly allows you to invert colors system wide without inverting photos...

Are there any options out there that I'm missing?

Hello. I recently reset my phone for another issue. And ever since my battery life hasn't been all too great.

What could cause this? It doesn't show up under location as high usage. It doesn't show up as an app...

I am not rooted.

Thank you in advance.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoniinfante:
boot the phone into recovery and clean cache and dalvik, reboot, and check, also if u recently made a change, just let it sit, wait til 15% and then charge to 100% again, then reboot, and let the phone connected about 10 minutes after it reaches 100%. you need to do at least 2 or 3 battery cycles to properly calibrate the battery and the whole phone, cpus,kernel,modems, etc etc, good luck, cheers:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zkyevolved:
How do I clear Dalvik Cache? I searched good, and I must be rooted, is that correct? I'm not rooted.

This setup has been on my phone for well over a weak. It has also gone down to below 20% a few times.

Thank you for your response :) Very kind of you.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] M@khan #:
U can easily clear dalvik cache after rooting ur device with Root cleaner (root) android app.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoniinfante:
Sir i just told you how to do it...turn off ur phone...then press and hold volume up+power+home button for about 3 seconds then let them go...ur phone will boot into recovery mode...there u can see all the steps like clean cache etc etc...cheers:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zkyevolved:
Hi again! Yes, I cleared the normal cache, but I was wondering if there was anything else apart from that since I don't have root for the dalvik cache. :).
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoniinfante:
no, thats all you can do for now, but like i said on the first post, let the phone sit, and calibrate your battery, if it doesnt get better in 2 or 3 days then report back, cheers:fingers-crossed:

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DorkyDev:
I am just asking about the reputation of this brand: http://www.ebay.com/itm/221679412698

I just joined the Note Edge family a working 100% functional SM-N915(T) with a cracked top corner, for $269, hell for that much I am willing to spend a extra $200 on a new digitizer and have a fully working Note Edge with no contract. haha!! Seller said battery and door aren't included, but $469 plus cause of labor for replacing the digitizer I still end up saving money and getting a good deal on it.

Or wouldn't this http://www.ebay.com/itm/181633025632 and this http://www.ebay.com/itm/141644554159 work in the N915(T I believe it's T-mobile brand version, or he said the esn is clear with T-Mobile)?

Nexus 6 SystemUI

I am providing anyone who is feeling risky to try this on their device. In most cases it has not worked, but on occasion it does. Once it starts working, it will work until you do something to your system. There are occasional SystemUI crashes when the signal is changing, but it restarts itself after a couple of seconds. If you are going to try this, PLEASE BACKUP YOUR PHONE. This is very important in case it fails to work. The problem is that it keeps crashing, so it is very difficult to do anything.

Nexus 6 SystemUI Test

Move the file to /system/priv-app/SystemUI and set permissions.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] mrjiggywiggy:
Woah! I'm planning on installing this tomorrow (quite late right now) but it looks awesome!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Armaiz:
Seems Awesome! Is it just .apks or is the ui completely changed? Either way I would love to have this! I think if somehow you can get the notification bar and lockscreen to be similar it would have a very stock feel. Especially with build.prop tweaks to add multi users and softkeys. Keep it up!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
It's apk's for the most part, but I've themed the Settings app and some other stuff.

Also, just now I decided to experiment and I just copied over the Nexus 6 SystemUI and it appears this could work.

View attachment 3292344

View attachment 3292345

The only problem is it crashes when I press the volume button because of Samsung's safe volume thing, but I'm definitely going to be looking into debugging it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Armaiz:
Are you testing this on Verizon s5? This is exactly what I've been wanting! Awesome work!

---------- Post added at 05:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:27 AM ----------

I just downlaoded alliance rom. It kind of ruined the defualt ui. So I think Im going to try yours out. Do you have the navigation bar and lcokscreen on it yet?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
How'd you get the Nexus 6 SystemUI working on your device...? For me, the screen is just black
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
I've been trying to duplicate this and I cannot seem to do it by just copying the apk again. I get a SecurityException. This also happens when replacing the AOSP SystemUI with the default SystemUI. I'm going to try to add it into the zip so it will be there from the start.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] heyitsmatt1:
So I have head no problems with your rom since installing. Except I noticed I cannot use the dial pad during a call. Like I tried to check my voicemail and it won't register me typing my passcode. It showas it type in. But somehow it doesn't register. I'm not sure what's going on exactly with it. Hope maybe someone might be able to spread some light on a possible solution? :) thanks!

P.S. get job turning Samsung to AOSP!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Lightn1ng:
I don't think this is a good idea...

When the non-default SystemUI detects a change in the file, it just throws a security exception... Some people do things to their SystemUI. By doing this, you are essentially locking the SystemUI, which I don't think some would like...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] freak69ize:
This looks awesome... may be giving it a try soon.. thanks
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] snowrelyt:
My god. It's beautiful.

Fantastic work, DEFINITELY moving to this rom when it's more fleshed out.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] zimgir124:
Looks great! I will definitely switch to this rom. Also, im up for testing things if you would like me to.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
This is strange. Try wiping cache and dalvik
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Armaiz:
Did you get the notification pull down and lock screen fixed? Honestly thats all I need but man do those apps look just as amazing.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
Hopefully that will be soon.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] mrjiggywiggy:
I might have found a fix to the SecurityException error. I'm not a developer, so I can't guarantee this was the right solution but it might be possible to decompile both the Nexus 6's SystemUI.apk and the S5's SystemUI.apk and then put the S5's AndroidManifest.xml (which sets permissions) into the Nexus 6's decompiled SystemUI. After that you can recompile the new one and move it to /system/priv-app and set permissions. I was looking at the file and it lists permissions and actions that (might) break the SystemUI as they have things that aren't in the Nexus 6's SystemUI code. I might be able to get this done and send it soon but I'm having problems decompiling both apks, but if anyone wants to try feel to go ahead.

Edit: Apktool is acting up on WIndows and my Linux VM isn't working so I can't do this. If someone else can, please. :)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
Just got home, so I'll try this
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
Just extract this: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952615018 and move the folders to /system/priv-app, then change the folder permissions to 755 and the apk permissions to 644.

When I first installed the Google Dialer, I kept getting errors. I looked at the logs and the message was "invalid column is_super_primary". I just removed all references to that column in the app and I stopped getting errors. There are multiple arrays in the app that have a list of all the columns the app queries and I replaced all "is_super_primary" references with the column that was before it in the array. It is sort of hackish, but that was the only way to make it work.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] mi6300m:
Gods be praised! Camera installed and working! Thank you thank you! Now to tackle the dialer. So what do you suggest trying to edit in the apk?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
I'm not exactly sure on the filenames, but decompile the apk in the rom and decompile a non-modified version. Then, use Beyond Compare 4 to compare what was changed.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] JakeBash:
Wallpapers

I fkr some reason can't set the lockscreen wallpaper. The option to look in the gallery for downloaded images says "app isn't installed". Any suggestions?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] mi6300m:
So i managed to decompile the APKs for the dialers. But i can't compile it back to test the differences. Working on learning how, but i thought i'd share what i have and maybe you can see and test on your end faster than i can.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] bighamz:
I'm not sure why but every time my phone boots it goes to the updating apps screen and resets the apps to the state they were in when I flashed this rom. I deleted all the all's I didn't need but as soon as I turn my phone off and it boots again it loads them back up somehow. Can anyone help?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] mi6300m:
I had that happen once. I just flashed the rom again over what's installed
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
This is due to removing the Gallery from the ROM. I have uploaded the stock Camera and Gallery in a zip up above. You can just move the Gallery folder to priv-app and set permissions. I will be working to get it to point to Google photos instead.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] NSDroider:
Hey there, I'm running the initial release of this ROM. I don't think it had a name a couple of months back ?? Was wondering how to get sfinder back. For some reason its in my quick settings but comes up as not installed. Much appreciate the help in advance. Thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] harrytery:
I tried flashing the Galaxy S5 email apk so I could get Exchange configured, but now all I get after the reboot (after flashing) is the android logo with a steady flash of it. Any way to get out of this and back into the phone?

edit:

So i just ended up flashing back to NCG since I needed to get my phone up and running. So I guess my new question is, has anyone had any luck getting email loaded on this to work for Exchange?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dante23x:
Yes. Using this guide I was able to get Excahnge working on the Gmail app. I only installed the Exchange apk and it works perfectly with the exisiting Gmail app.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
Can you take a log and send it to me?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jagrave:
Yeah it kind of sucks. But using the priority options actually work pretty good. If you turn it on and have your options set to allow nothing, you can leave your phone on vibrate, hit the quick toggle for priority mode, and your alarm will still off. And nothing else will come through

If I'm on NE9 4.4.2 what do I need to do to flash this?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] zimgir124:
Flash it in safestrap, then reboot into download mode and flash the OC4 firmware only.

DO NOT FLASH THE STOCK FIRMWARE(Around 1-2 GB)!!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] o-o:
Thanks, sounds easy enough
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
I've linked the firmware file in the OP
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] o-o:
Ok I've got this up and running and everything looks great, but where did Safestrap go? Now when I reboot it doesn't have the Safestrap screen.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
Safestrap is not compatible with lollipop. If you want to access safestrap you must flash a KitKat kernel in Odin. After you make your changes, reboot to download mode and flash the OC4 kernel.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] o-o:
Hmmm that's inconvenient for flashing while on the go lol. I'll have to wait until I get home to try it out. I flashed ne9 quite a while ago and haven't touched the S5 since. I've been playing with aosp on my S4 and Note 2. Thanks for the information and your patience with me .
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
You can also flash ROMs and such in an app called FlashFire. No need to switch kernels and such. I've linked it in the OP as well.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] o-o:
I'm not signed up with G+ so I'll wait until I get to my computer. Thanks though.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] blair.sadewitz:
Excellent. This is probably what broke for me on the MOAR google ROM also. I need 500 Firepaper at all times.

Gotta try that out. How's the theme coming? Specifically, the mismatched font/box size in the upper-left-hand corner of the pulldown? ;) I really wish I could ignore it, haha.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
I have made a Nexus SystemUI flashable zip if anybody wants to test it out for me. The only bug is some light-on-light/dark-on-dark notification issues but it's not on all notifications. I've only tested in Safestrap but FlashFire should work. You don't need to wipe anything.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] zimgir124:
Does it still have the crash issues?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
Once it is installed it does not, but if it is not properly installed it will constantly crash. If it does not install properly, delete the apk from /system/priv-app/SystemUI/SystemUI.apk then reboot. You should reboot with no SystemUI. Then copy the one included in the ROM to that folder then reboot. You can try to install it again.

I have not had an issue with it failing to install yet so you should be good.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] zimgir124:
Tried flashing with Flashfire. SystemUI crashes still. ill try with SafeStrap and reply back.

Stuck on first loop

So I installed the rom using flashfire and followed instructions, but have been on the boot screen (samsung galaxy s5 then powered by android underneath) for half an hour. am i missing something?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] NyceHS:
Xposed

Im impressed with the progress on this app. Downloading it now to try it out. My only question is i see u have "Themed framework-res". So my question would be since the framework is themed, if i were to install xposed framework on this, would it mess up the theme? Like i said im downloading now and im excited to have at least a google experience on my locked bootloader s5 but i like xposed and dont wanna mess anything up.

---------- Post added at 12:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 AM ----------

While u are on that screen, pull the battery from your phone, put it back in and turn the phone on normal. i get that problem on most lollipop roms and a battery pull fixes it. Not sure why the problem exists in the first place tho.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
Did you remove the apk and reboot and then install the stock apk?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] rhianc11:
Nexus ui works just do a wipe first
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
Xposed still works on this ROM and does not break the theme.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] deepshah420:
i did that but I'm still having the same issue..
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
Did you just install the ROM?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] deepshah420:
yes i did
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] DROIDRAZ:
You need to reinstall it again. Something went wrong in the process.
