Does this ROM (for I9100) is totally stable for daily use? Does Maps works? Cause in Cyanogen many things broken and I had to revert to 4.4.4. And all works fine. So I'd love to use 5.1.1, mainly because of SysUI is great! But I need your expertise please.

Cheers.

Another question arnab. It appear that like other LP Roms yours doesn't support init.d. Correct me if I'm wrong. If I'm not are you thinking in supporting it in DU? I'm talking about it, cause I use swap partition (internal<->externalsd) in LP and it requires kernel with init.d support. Appolo Kernel has it for Lollipop, but I think it lacks the stability of a stock ROM, if you know what I mean. Thanks.

Hey uuh i understand that the recent menu cant be accessed using the home button anymore,,, but what is the alternative exactly? how can i see my recent apps ? :\
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveKing:
Solved with Init.d Toggler. Thanks. By the way, this ROM is solid. Way better than any other I have tested before. Keep up the good work and this definitely will be the best LP built for I9100!!!

Cheers Mate!

can i flash this rom on my stock partition?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Raz0r_:
Everything is working flawlessly except one thing that bothered me: external SDcard isn't recognized or mounted at all.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveKing:
Here too. Having problems with GLTools and LINK2SD not finding SDcard, but card is mounted and working for some applications. I'm installing the ROM again in my I9100, just in case. Praying. :fingers-crossed: But one thing is for certain, this ROM is blasting fast and stable in overall. Congrats to DU team for that! And thanks for arnab by bringing it to us.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DaveKing:
I fixed my problem with Paragon NTFS&HFS+. There's a problem in LP with SELinux permissions. It has to be enforced the permission to apps get access to sdcard. And there's users permissions and developers permissions. I tried to fix the problem just by restorecon -Fv /data/media but with no results. So the problem is more with the enforcing mode of SELinux being necessary for some apps to work correctly, like lucky patcher or gltools that perhaps use a more "kernel level code".

I think LP is good in many things, but Google turn out to be the bad guy and struggle a lot the way the permissions are made with applications and sdcard in write and read access.

So, to say how things are going right now. I have full access to my 128gb sdcard as an internal storage by an init.d script. All the apps until now working with full support. And now will begin to install all the games and apps to see how this fantastic rom run after all. I'll give more news about the other features when I start to use them.

Cheers.

[XDA Assist] jfk999:
Hey guyz,

I have an issue with flashing cyanogen mod rom. I hav cwm recovery.Flashed zip.

But after flashing zip and rebooting system a white screen fades,I found fix also for that.

Just placing stock boot.img from backup but after doing that also i have a problem.

The mobile boots,samsung.com logo comes out,then gts7500 comes for 5-10sec and the

mobile reboots.Endless loop.i have done flashing it many times,did wipe data/cache and

dalvik cache but still no difference.

But one thing i observed that i am able to flash roms which have same android version ie.

2.3.6 but im unable to upgrade to higher version like 4.2 or 4.4

Tried flashing even slimbean and speedmod rom but same problem.I have an indian firmware.

Current OS is inspiration rom v_18 by kk9999gada..

So guyz anyone have an idea to get out of this bootloop? I badly want to use cyanogenmod

and upgrade its version :)
[XDA Assist] jd1639:
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. You are probably going to have to start all over and flash the stock firmware in Odin. Also, the version of cwm may have to updated to flash newer roms. But the best place to get help is in your device's specific forum here, http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-ace-plus They are the experts on your device.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlotters:
Has anyone else noticed any problems with the accuracy of the pedometer on B0E1 firmware? (I've got a 925i)

I'm not sure if it's the update or something else but the pedometer is much less sensitive now. To the point where it's showing 5000 less steps than my jawbone and my Moto 360.

I walked around and counted my steps and when it counted them with me it seemed accurate but most of the time it didn't seem to realise I was walking at all so it didn't increment the step count :/

Hoping it's not a hardware problem!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] RCDheliracer:
This has been driving me up the wall. It happens almost daily. I'll be using the phone doing various different things and I will get a pop-up that says "Unfortunately clock has stopped". I hit ok and it goes away but within seconds, it pops back up again. This will continue until I reboot the phone. I've tried clearing cache on the app and in the storage menu but it's continuing to happen. Any Ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] sirooga:
It seems to be if you have alarms set. Mine does the same thing. Even full restore didn't fix it. Using timely for my alarms does. Unfortunate to have to use a different app.

Try this, it fixed my "unfortunately clock has stopped" issue

***********Update*************POSSIBLE SOLUTION

6/14/2015

I too experienced the issue "unfortunately, clock has stopped" after updating my phone to Lollipop. I called Verizon and they told me to do a factory restore, which I did. The issue still persisted.

I just called Verizon Wireless tech support back. The guy had seen this problem once before and found a fix for it. I haven't seen this fix posted on any website, but it worked immediately. Please let me know if this works for you

Go to Settings--Date and Time--Select Date Format, and then choose a date format. Once I picked 'regional' the clock worked without the error "unfortunately, clock has stopped"

I tried clearing cache and doing a factory reset, and it didn't work. You don't have to do this if this if selecting a date format works. Please comment and let me know if this helped you. I'm curious if this will work across the board. Maybe even for phones other than Samsung Galaxy S4. I'm stoked!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] SilkyJohnson:
I get it for YouTube all the time. For example, open a wallpaper app or something "YouTube has stopped" - could be anything, and this is days without using YouTube.

Weird.

After just using timely for alarms I stopped having the clock issues and have been getting the youtube and internet doing it now. If its not one thing its another. I wonder if its just my phone at this point.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4t0m1c4:
Note, other threads related to this software go back to Oct 2014 (search computrace on XDA forum) however my issue with the software has not been discussed.

I have just encountered this software (along with others according to a quick google search) on my new Note 4 (SM-N910F) on EE. Initially the phone auto updated to lollipop before I knew this was pushed to the device while I set up my accounts on it. The SIM was not active and I found a number of outgoing, but failed SMS messages containing encrypted information being sent to the number (+13106916499). I immeditaly did a factory reset to remove my accounts and details, restarting with the stock lollipop build from EE.

Again the sms messages attempts started up again (and failed). The only downloaded app on the phone was Computrace Agent, with permissions to do everything on the device, including sending SMS messages (showing the cost warning too). As other threads have gone into what this app is, I'll leave that out, but will mention it is impossible to uninstall or even (force)stop this application. Ok you can force stop, but it restarts immediately, and sends another text!

I've left the phone with no accounts on it, and had the SIM activated. As soon as this was complete, Computrace successfully sent a new message to the above number., but has not stopped attempting to send more (failed for some reason).

I contacted EE support and registered a complaint, but they deny knowledge of the software, or it's intended use as a legitimate tracking tool. They also have no idea what the number this SMS is being sent to is for, nor what the information in the encrypted contents actually contains.

I'm looking for others recent experience with this software, and whether people have had charges/resource consumption on any newish device. I have the option to cancel the contract for 14 days, and I am mainly looking for more information before making my decision. Obviously nobody in their right mind would use such a compromised handset, so it's remaining in airplane mode and will have no accounts/services added while I have it, which kinda makes it an oversized 1990's brick right now!

Look forward to your comments and advice.

Thanks

4t

EDIT: My brother, who has more Android brains than I do found the number was actually registered to T-Mobile in the US http://www.whitepages.com/phone/1-310-691-6499

EDIT/Update: OK I went to the local shop today, they were also shocked at the texts, and knew nothing about it. The guy there is now checking his note 4 too, just in case. He hadn't seen the software before but admitted to not really looking for anything untoward. He recommended I call it in as a dodgy phone and get a replacement. So I tried that, but was passed onto Samsung support.. like transferred to their switchboard! Another queue? Stuff that, I hung up, called back on 150 and cancelled the contract. I'm now buying an unlocked replacement and will shop about for cheaper deals on the SIM as I'm out of contract. I still intend to raise a ICO complaint about the encrypted sms sent to the US though.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MDaveUK:
I noticed this as well with mine when I got it. Mine was EE locked, and before I inserted a SIM I was getting multiple messages just like yours, but containing different letters and symbols.

I have since unlocked my note and rooted, flashed a debloated stock ROM and all is good. It might not be carrier specific to EE, since Computrace is a Samsung app that's in all stock firmwares.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] illuz:
Hi. I'm also having ussues with this software. I want it GONE!

Info: this forum - p=60864843&postcount=896 | I cant post links, sorry.

I tried deleting it from /presdata/ to no avail. It reinstalls the dropper again. If anyone can remove this I will generously tip you. I want this removed from my phone.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4t0m1c4:
From other information I have found around the net, the only way to remove is to flash a new rom that does not contain the software. I'll take a look at your post but see the poster above yours.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4t0m1c4:
Yeah you might be right there, but the pattern so far from my Googling seems to point at EE/T-mobile. I'm not comfortable flashing my phone in the 1st 6months, also never done it before so I'd prefer a solution from my carrier. Also, I showed the situation to a family member who is senior in local trading standards. He was shocked, and more than a little interested in finding out more (no holding breath there though, resources and all).
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MDaveUK:
I still have the Computrace app in my debloated ROM, it's not something easily removed I'm afraid. However, it doesn't send any sms messages in my ROM, I tried testing by removing my sim and rebooting the phone.

I did a little research into what it actually does and I believe it's what Samsung use for their 'Find my phone' feature, and to remotely delete data and lock it.

This info page sounds just like it:

http://www.absolute.com/en/landing/...demo?sc_camp=231FCC716F544DF08BFA6C366AA77EF5

So if you try to remove Computrace you are probably disabling this feature. But it's part of the firmware's SystemUI so removing it breaks the firmware.

This is still largely a guess but I would bet on this being exactly the case.

If it still bothers you I would search for a ROM that somehow totally removes it, or CyanogenMod 12.1 if you want to avoid any Samsung software at all.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SleemLDJ:
Guys. Let me tell you my problem and how I solved the computrace issue on my Note 4 N910F on EE.

I bought my Note 4 from a community called Gumtree in UK. It was a phone locked to EE on contract from the guy I got it from. At this point, I didn't know what computrace was or whether to look for it on the phone.

Normally when I get a new phone, I wipe it, root it and make it work to my taste coz, what's android for right?

I installed titanium backup to freeze some bloatware and remove some as well. I then came across computrace and the name "trace" sounded funny to me. I decided to use titanium backup to remove it right away coz i dont want any Samsung crap snooping on my phone.

After a reboot, the software installed itself back and i was like WHAT?

I removed it again and it installed itself again and again. And i was like F*** this. I installed a custom recovery and installed a custom rom but it was still there. It appeared it wasn't a software on the data or system partition. It has a separate untouchable partition to itself or something. Very dangerous app even more than the NSA to me.

So i was randomly using my phone some day and my phone went to lockscreen to say "ABSOLUTE COMPUTRACE SOFTWARE, this phone has been disabled by EE.... Bla bla bla" and I needed a pin to unlock to use it.

I called EE, they didn't do jack ****. I called the person I bought the phone from, he was long gone. I checked the IMEI of the phone using swappa esn checker but it is clean and not blacklisted. Turns out the guy breached his contract coz the phone still belongs to EE for 6 months and within that time, he had sold it. It also kept sending some random jargon sms in form of an encrypted message to my most recent contacted person via sms. Weird and dangerous stuff is what Computrace is. I went on their website to read about them but I don't believe in them and need to sue them.

I had to resort to using a CyanogenMod rom for about a month to avoid the phone asking me for that pin coz the phone was basically useless. But having a note 4 with cm, letting go of all the Samsung and seen feature is like me cheating myself.

I went into deep research and finally found a solution to remove it completely by wiping the partition it's installed in (I think).

Using odin, I placed the file in AP/PDA then flashed a rom that is BTU CSC and not anything that had to do with EE (EVR) so that it won't come back. I booted my phone and computrace is totally gone. I was able to use the phone again.

I have uploaded the file here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/k59gxqpwv7hofco/Note4PersistWipe.tar?dl=0

Reboot to recovery.

1. Wipe your current rom and install a fresh one.

2. Don't reboot into system yet.

3. Reboot to download/bootloader mode

4. Open Odin and place the file in AP/PDA.

5. Press "Start"

6. Reboot

7. Profit and give the middle finger to computrace.

Please note that this file is only tested on the SM N910F because that is what version of Note 4 I have.
