[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CntrlAltDel45:
I seem to be having an issue with downgrading my S5 G900H Exynos to Kitkat from Lollipop BOAD. I've tried 4 different stock Kitkat firmwares from sammobile but all of them cause the phone to hang at the Samsung logo however I can flash back to stock lollipop BOAD and it works fine again.

ODIN gives me no errors when I try to flash kitkat or lollipop and infact both gives the "PASS!" mark what should I do?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
I downgraded to KK from LP the other day, and ended up stuck at the Samsung logo too

Tried factory resetting, didn't work

The only thing that finally worked was flashing the same KK ROM again over the top of the one that got stuck at the Logo

Once I'd done that, it booted
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CntrlAltDel45:
Doesn't seem to work for me bud
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
You might need to flash the PIT file for your model S5, maybe the partitions are different between ROMs for that specific model

Be sure to get the exact PIT file though or you'll brick it

PIT file and KK ROM in ODIN at the same time, it will flash the PIT, then it will flash the ROM

It is possible for me to reflash the phone with lollipop firmware and install custom recovery could I flash stock rom via that custom recovery?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
You could flash a custom recovery like TWRP, but unless someone has made a flashable zip of the stock firmware for custom recovery it'll not work

You could flash a custom KitKat ROM from TWRP

The only method that works for mine is flashing CF Auto Root, to gain root, then using TWRP manager from Google Play to install TWRP Recovery

This will void your warranty though
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CntrlAltDel45:
Mine is similar to that too. I have to install CF Auto Root first and then install Flashify and then install TWRP via flashify img file to gain custom recovery
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Might be worth flashing a custom KK ROM, then trying to flash stock over the top after 100% wiping everything & formatting from TWRP advanced wipe
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CntrlAltDel45:
I'm working on that now mate. I appreciate your assistance so far.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
No bother, Lollipop not your taste?

I went back to KK just to see what everyone was on about, lasted a couple hours and flashed back to LP, some people get great LP performance, some bad, for me LP is way better
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CntrlAltDel45:
I actually prefer lollipop over kitkat but the performance is horrible and i have to charge my phone 3 times daily
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Stupid question, but you did factory reset after upgrading to LP?

KK leaves behind rubbish files which cause battery drain, I got the same after first upgrade, but after a reset, it has been great since

Performance is definitely better with LP this end too, but you're not alone, the majority who upgraded say KK is way better atm
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CntrlAltDel45:
Yep bud.

I decided to install a custom lollipop rom Zephyr Lite to address the battery and performance issues, if it works out well I will use it as my daily driver.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Nice one, fingers crossed
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CntrlAltDel45:
I installed a custom rom called XtreSoLite with Aroma addon and so far I'm happy with it. I tried Zypher Lite but it didn't work, rooting failed and had all sorts of problems so I'm glade to say I'll stay with XtreSoLite for now.

Thanks for your help mate
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
Good stuff, I was gonna suggest that exact ROM weirdly, I haven't tried it yet but heard good things about it
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CntrlAltDel45:
So far I'm impressed the aroma addon makes the XtreStoRom ROM highly customizable and the battery life is insane. So far I'm running my phone all day it's now 8pm and my battery is 70% and I was able to install Philz touch custom recovery which works perfectly something I couldn't do in previous attempts on other firmwares.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sandeeppathak007:
Why would you want to go back to Kitkat ?

I am expecting to get my Galaxy S5 tomorrow from Flipkart, so shall i update it or not, is there any problem with the Android 5.0
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CntrlAltDel45:
Well as *Detection* mentioned some people report excellent performance and battery life with lollipop on their s5 and others report the exact opposite. It's really a gamble but the custom ROM I mentioned earlier works wonders for me as far as I can tell.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sandeeppathak007:
Got my S5 today will see how is battery for me before switching to custom roms

[P3600 General] sbp:
Hi, I have a HTC P3600 (Trinity), with the newest officiel ROM with GPS activated. I have TomTom 6.03 and I can get it working with a relatively quick fix (1-2 min).

I have chosen: NMEA reciver, Com 9 and 4800 baud - and everything is OK.

BUT when I start TomTom the next time, the com settings is wrong. It is listed as com 3, so it won't remember that it should use com 9.

The NMEA setting and the baud rate is corectly set.

Can I change something in the registry?

Thanks

Steen
[P3600 General] deech:
If you have TT 6.03 one of the receiver options is "Built IN GPS" or similar, try that and see if it sticks that way
[P3600 General] sbp:
Thanks, I didn't even try the "build in GPS" as I have read that we needed to use NMEA antenna.

However, I followed your advice, and it sticks. Here you don't need to use baud rate and com settings.

Thanks for your help.

With Sense 7, we now have the ability to change the 4x1 weather clock widget icons using the HTC Theme Engine. Unfortunately, this is the only place that the weather icons change. By flashing the following zips in recovery, your weather icons will change system wide.

Please note, if you have updated some apps on the Play Store such as BlinkFeed or Lock Screen, then these icons will be returned to stock. It's recommended you don't update these apps until your ROM dev includes them in their ROM as system apps.

Download and flash in recovery, please let me know if there's any problems.

[One (M9) Themes and Apps] shokouhi:
[MENTION=918378]Basil3[/MENTION] I am still using your Weezle weather mod. I love it! I have updated to the new base(Viper Rom 3.0). Your mod on 1.9.1 applied Weezle weather to the lockscreen and also to Blinkfeed home. Those two do not change to Weezle on the new base. The lockscreen and Blinkfeed home are both stock. I was wondering if you would be willing to possibly update the mod? It still works on the clock widgets for the time being. Thanks again for the great weather animations! Cheers mate!

OK all links should be updated in the OP, and also on the Venom Hub, for those of you who use it.
[One (M9) Themes and Apps] Nilsonf:
[MENTION=918378]Basil3[/MENTION] think you can make these weather icons for 5.1? I flashed the tick weather but it just flashed over some apks not all
[One (M9) Themes and Apps] Basil3:
It should be working fine on 5.1, I updated a couple of weeks ago. What isn't applying?
[One (M9) Themes and Apps] Nilsonf:
The weather widget didn't get themed
[One (M9) Themes and Apps] Basil3:
Which widget? The 4X1 widget will be overwritten by any HTC theme you apply.
[One (M9) Themes and Apps] shokouhi:
[MENTION=918378]Basil3[/MENTION] So it would seem the Weezle Weather in the dropbox post will theme the 4X1 clocks and the main clock but it does not work for blinkfeed being set as home. The download in the main post does not theme the lockscreen for some reason when the other one does. If you need help testing let me know. However, I have had the experience on both 2.7 and 2.8 base roms. 2.7 was Venom Rom: Viper 3.0. I am running official developer rom now. Only blinkfeed is not themed. I hope that helps!

[One (M9) Themes and Apps] Basil3:
I have flashed both tick and Weezle, and both seem to work for me. BlinkFeed won't work if you've updated from the play store.

I'm not 100% sure what you're saying, but if you flash the stock zip, it will return everything to stock.

If that doesn't fix it, then dirty flash your ROM.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] ram150:
Hello Gurus,

I have the Canadian S4 (I337MVLUFNI2) running stock 4.4.2. I've just downloaded the Lollipop upgrade from Koodo but did not install.

I'm looking to root and flash CM12 or other ROMs, but I'd like to try Lollipop first.

Few questions about the upgrade:

-Will I be able to root the device after upgrading to Lollipop?

-If I don't like Lolipop, can I revert to my 4.2.2 using my Kies back up ?

-If I want to be able to evert, do you recommend that I root my 4.4.2 and take a nandroid back up first ?

(Battery life is important for me. If the upgrade turns out to be disastrous as some online reports indicates, I'd like to be able to go back to 4.2.2).

-What is the recommended way to root and install recovery for my device ?

Thanks to all..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Zehlek:
Do what I did.

Backup all files to PC

Flash lollipop firmware through Odin which you can download from sammobile

Reboot into recovery and wipe data and cache(this will erase everything on phone)

Boot up phone and setup accounts

Then once finished flash this through odin http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2293800

Flash twrp through odin

Boot up and copy files back to phone

Reboot into recovery and flash cm12 or whatever you want
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DankHeals:
So far, there is not a root method for Lollipop on the S4, nor does Xposed work for it yet (lots of issues with the way Samsung implemented ART to Touchwiz).

There is a keep root method in the S4 general Forum, which is just a way to keep root throughout the install of lollipop if you are already rooted on the current ROM you're upgrading from. I'm on my phone though so apologies for not linking it.

I'm not certain if a kies backup will restore after the upgrade, but even though the keep root method removes safestrap functionality, there is a way to get it working temporarily, which may provide some hope.

Seeing as you're using a Canadian model I don't think you need safestrap, and seeing as I do (AT&T model), I can't tell you how other recoveries will handle the situation.

Hi all,

I have an official HTC Dot view case for my M9, the ICE version (with the transparent back) but I have found that just after a month of normal use, the hinge is starting to tear from the inside, just where it is connected to the hard transparent back.

I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this.

I'm going to try and get a replacement from the store as I am surprised at the quality issue with this one, just hope it's a one off.

I've never had this issue with my m8 Dot View case.
[One (M9) Accessories] godzirrarawr:
Same exact thing happened to me, in about 2 weeks. I went to the Verizon store where I bought it, and they offer 14 day returns, and my entire front flap ripped off at 15 days.

I even reached out to HTC, and they said that you have to get warranty thru the store you bought it at. Needless to say, I'm really ****ing pissed, and only saw this post when I came here to find a new case. It just really pisses me off that I got roped into the m9 due to the dotview case, and it ****ing fell apart in 2 weeks. Nice flagship case for your flagship phone, HTC. Ya jerks.
[One (M9) Accessories] BUBBA DUB'S:
Luckily I bought mine at best buy, I couldn't get my money back because they have the 15 day policy, but I was able to get store credit and switched to the otterbox. My ice case tore right at the 30 day mark.

That doesn't seem right, HTC should have a standard product warranty. They are willing to give another device through uh-oh protection, but not a case? That's a noodle scratcher if I've ever heard one.
[One (M9) Accessories] kash20:
Another ripped case here, after a month of use, contacted HTC, they said to go to the supplier, even though i purchased the case through the HTC Website... It's a bit of a joke and then the online chat rep eventually told me to try contact expansy's which doesn't make any sense either. Ordered a new spiegen slim case anyway now but still trying to claim my compensation back
[One (M9) Accessories] p50kombi:
I had a lengthy discussion with htc support and they basically told me to contact the retailer.

When I told them they are responsible for warranty claims, they basically told me they can't fulfil their own warranty policy.

Really its a joke, if I had the time and energy I would take them to court, as this is clearly illegal.

I wonder if I should not buy a clone then, I thought the main advantage of the original cover is the durability...
[One (M9) Accessories] BUBBA DUB'S:
Anything is better than the original, poorly maid, probably to have consumers buy multiple cases to help HTC make up for quarterly revenue
[One (M9) Accessories] vegetaleb:
I just noticed that HTC did 2 different Dot View cases for the M9, the Ice which is transparent back and the normal one which is like the M8 Dot view.

Do you think only the Ice version has problems?

What do you think about this case? http://www.amazon.com/case-Rock-Ult...p/B00VND5HQK/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8
[One (M9) Accessories] p50kombi:
The only thing I can say is the grey backed one is the one I had on the m8, never had an issue with it.

My gut feeling would be it only effects the ice cases, which is doubly irritating as that is supposed to be the more premium one...
[One (M9) Accessories] Electronic Punk:
Just had a look and mine is doing the same :(

[MENTION=271041]p50kombi[/MENTION] did you just go in store or call them?
[One (M9) Accessories] p50kombi:
Don't ask mate...

I went to the store first, but they are just a bunch of idiots..

I thin kI told you before I had a run in at the store before, this time was no different.

They told me they couldn't do anything about it in store and I should call HTC.

I can post the log from my conversation with HTC, they basically said they can't fulfil their own warranty policy and I should go back to CPW..

I really didn't want to go back to the store and waist another hour of my life debating with the knobs there, so decided to call CPW instead.

The woman on the phone sorted it out for me after me explaining my road towards my call with her...

Best bet would be to call them.

Maybe mention there seems to be a real issue with this case and maybe they can push HTC from their side to do something about it....

Man, it makes my head hurt already knowing that I probably will be doing the same after another months worth of use, as the new dot view case shows hairline cracks in the rubber already....
[One (M9) Accessories] Electronic Punk:
Yeah distinct lack of effort on cases this time, 3 **** colours and low quality imho, bottom of my case is not nicely drilled and has tiny bits of discoloured rubber where it hasn't been done properly.
[One (M9) Accessories] sleby:
that's because the "htc accessories website" is operated by expansys. i don't even know if that's the real official website.

the same happened to mine ICE case, i am still waiting for reply from expansys.
[One (M9) Accessories] Electronic Punk:
Ok went to the store (same store I actually had my online delivery that gave me it 4 days early - so pretty chill / clueless guys but regardless awesome because of it.

They weren't sure on the warranty policy so put me through to customers services. Without evening asking for name/number they told me the warranty was 6 months (which I actually believe is incorrect but serves purpose) and that the store should be able to replace it.

I had the nice lady repeat this for an employee. Boom, job jobbed.

Actually quite obvious on the tearing when the phone is out of the case.

Confirmation from "head office" was all they needed which I assume they meant customer services.

Would encourage everyone to do this to be honest, although a fan of HTC, they should not get away with low quality "premium" accessories and if this has an inherent fault then it needs to be sorted out.

Don't be afraid and if needed point them to this thread, might even start getting this talked on Elevate as I am disappointed in the variety of cases this year and miss my Orange M8 :)
[One (M9) Accessories] p50kombi:
I already posted this on elevate, not really a great deal of response there, just a few others who have similar issues but no response from HTC...

Interesting fact to add is the HTC warranty team I spoke to over the phone had no idea what HTC elevate is...
[One (M9) Accessories] sleby:
expansys will also change my case. they say that the first series had a problem that is now solved. will see in a month i guess.
[One (M9) Accessories] Electronic Punk:
Well I don't believe that for a start

Secondly, no reason to be believe this isn't going to happen to my second case, can already see a gap.

Thirdly, nice of HTC to mention it :s
[One (M9) Accessories] celblazer:
