[MENTION=6188940]DrmohamedShawky[/MENTION]: afaik you've to flash the old bootloader. Further if you have no efs-backup to restore a firmware-version older than MG4, you'll loose your IMEI and telephone functions.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrmohamedShawky:
that already happened to me before

thanks god i had efs backup and fixed it

wounder if there any way to get red of the 4.3 knox bootloader and return to the old one

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YourDearestEigenvalue:
Hi there (and my excuses upfront if posting in the wrong section, I checked twice but you never know),

having a Archos 40 Titanium, I wanted to root my device through this (whiteboard.ping.se/Android/Rooting) tutorial on Linux. Nevertheless, nothing is perfect, and my first problem was unpacking the root file system. Some research led to a (android.stackexchange.com/questions/58825/unpack-initramfs-cpio-gz-boot-img-from-mtk6589-phone) StackExchange question and the mtk-tools, with which un- and repacking the kernel + ramdisk was pretty easy.

The next problem was on a lower level; with the resulting boot.img file, I went into fastboot mode and entered

fastboot boot boot.img

into my terminal, which gave the following output:

downloading 'boot.img'...

OKAY [ 0.191s]

booting...

while my phone showed

USB Transferring...

USB Transmission OK Time: <some number in ms> Vel: <some number in bk/s>

then, both the terminal and my phone stayed stuck for an indefinite amount of time. Thinking that this process shouldn't be stuck at this point, I tried

fastboot continue

which results in a < waiting for device > message. The only option left is dis- and reconnecting the usb cable and then running "fastboot continue", after which my phone seems to boot using the image from flash memory.

Googling only led me to (android.stackexchange.com/questions/98678/fastboot-kernel-command-line-parameters), a similar problem with no answers.

So, the question is: what causes the phone not to immediately boot, and how could I continue to eventually root my phone? Preferably with this or a similar method. Thanks in advance. :)

[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gman901:
This is a real bizarre question but is there a way to configure the Note Edge so that if I remotely open an App like Google Play Music over an existing currently playing app such as Pandora or Beyond Pod, and make it play over the app that was currently open? And for that matter, can I switch back to the previous app remotely and have it play over Google Play Music? Here's the thing, when my phone is not nearby me and I want to switch apps and have them play over the previous playing app, is there anyway to do this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] WarCrazy:
Hello, I'm running a Verizon S4 SCH-I545. I was once apon a time rooted when I was at kitkat 4.2.2. After trying to flash a ROM, my phone bricked and the only solution that fixed it was connecting it to Kies. Once Kies repaired it, the phone was updated to 5.0.1 lollipop and now I just can't seem to find a root option for it. I seen some for other models, but not mine.

Any help to point me in the right direction?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
No root for OC1. Should have used Odin...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] WarCrazy:
Odin unfortunately failed every time. Kies was the last solution fix but the only one that worked. Phone is back on at least and that's the most important thing. Sucks I can't root, though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
Ah.

I has several fails on Odin yesterday and I only fixed it by shutting down some background programs.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] HalvicFeedbatch:
My S6 can now run games at a consistent frame rate. Also seems like it improved performance a bit. Though it does get pretty hot and battery drains a bit more. (only when playing heavy 3d games)

I would recommend using a third party thermal throttling app since this basically gets rid of that.

What I did:

1. Root.

2. download ES Explorer, allow root access.

3. navigate to, sys/devices/14ac0000.mali

4. find the DVFS file.

5. Go to its properties

6. Press permission and UNcheck everything there.

7. do the same for dvfs min lock and dvfs max lock

You can put it back to normal by checking the read boxes, if you aren't happy with this tweak.

did this with my note 4 and my S6, no issues yet.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] supercain:
Cant find this for galaxy note 4. I tried. Cant find the file

14ac0000.mali . Please elaborate.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] HalvicFeedbatch:
For the Note 4 just search for DVFS in the sys directory, you will find it.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] supercain:
Thank you for this. I've looked everywere on my note 4 still cant find it. I have some suspected files but none that say dvfs. Dont want to do the wrong one. Do you know exactly which one it is ?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] HalvicFeedbatch:
I dont have my Note 4 with me ATM but have you used the search feature in the /sys directory? It showed up for me when I typed it in.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] tanjiajun_34:
Sorry guys. Have been quite some time since I used a Samsung device. Is disabling DVFS=removing thermal throttling?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] sseuorosal:
Cant find the file
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] rmrect:
If this is done, is there a chance of over heating or other risks?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] HalvicFeedbatch:
pretty much
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] supercain:
Yes . It cant find it. If someone knows were it is. It would be nice to try.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] iGordy101:
Can one just delete these files ? Mine is still throttling a 75c I hate that ... and the permission is restored on every boot?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] HalvicFeedbatch:
it wont let you delete it and yes everything goes back to normal when you restart your device
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] EncryptedFile:
Dudebro, I have looked all over my /sys folder using 3c's (Android Tuner) File Explorer in addition to ES that you recommended, and that file is nowhere to be found.

Clearly there are at least two other users here who have a Galaxy Note 4 that also do not have that file, or cannot locate it.

Now that this has been established, how about letting us know more information now that it's been quite some time since your original post.

I'm running a T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 running Lollipop 5.0.1 (rooted using CF-autoroot, with TWRP 2.8.6.0)

How about you OP?

[Galaxy S6 Edge General] MistaC4:
Mali is Samsungs cpu (Exynos) So you are not going to find it i beleive the TMO variant is basically the same as the Canadian variant so its using Qualcomm (Snapdragon 805) because they are different cpus the S6 from what I can remember is now only Exynos so if you really want it disabled use xposed which ironicaly will cause more bad then good go back to Kit Kat (Firekat is the best imo) and then disable dvfs or wait till xposed does not break your phone (Might be a while because Samsung filled the ART partition with extra sh*t).
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] batuzai04123:
Only devices with Mali GPU can have this dvfs settings afaik

Meanwhile, Ive created a super simple init.d script so u dont need to change permission everytime you start ur device.

I use Kernel Adiutor from Playstore to emulate Init.d support and put there my script :)

Create a file with no extension, .i.e., 1dvfs

then paste this

#!/system/bin/sh

cd /sys/devices/14ac0000.mali/

chmod 000 dvfs

chmod 000 dvfs_max_lock

chmod 000 dvfs_min_lock

Put it in system/etc/init.d folder

make sure u enabled init.d support first in Kernel Adiutor.

Then chmod 0755

then set it on boot on kernel adiutor app and restart :)

to check on adb/terminal emu

cd /sys/devices/14ac0000.mali

ls -l *dvfs*

if u find blank/dashes or 000 in permission, it means ur script was executed successfully.

This method worked for me.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] jackspadeza:
thanks alot, works as mentioned! could i fry my board with these settings?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] Derpling:
I didn't understand the phrase "then chmod 0755", do i need to put it in the file i created? create a new one?

I too didn't get 'then chmod 0755'

What to do with that.... pls explain mate.

---------- Post added at 09:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 PM ----------

Hi mate... what do u mean by chmod 0755...

where to find that...?

pls explain thnx in advance... :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] batuzai04123:
That command is for changing permission in linux environment. You need adb or terminal emulator/ or just change it using any rooted explorer, it's easier to do that :D. Just look for permission in the selecting the property of the created init.d file.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] nightfury04:
So I need to include that line in the file which I have created with your code or juat need to set the permission of that file itself... sry but I have no idea about linux commands mate...
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] batuzai04123:
You can set the permission in the file :)

I suggest studying anything related with android, it's not that hard, especially if you're going "MESSY" style with your phone. Of course, no one wants to brick their phone, but at least if you have idea - you know what to do to fix it without relying much with others :)

And don't blame others if something happens. :) Do it at your own risks

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] kindlebeast:
Hey guys,

Been searchjng around for a while. I had rooted my kindle fire hdx about a year ago (1st gen). Ive realized the safestrP rom partition is limited to 3.8 gb when instlling a few large apps despite having a 64gb kindle. Any solutions to this? How can I increase the size? I apologize if this was posted, I search e d quite a bit without luck. Your help is appreciated!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Use Titanium Backup, Online Nandroid or similar app to backup the partition. Then create a new slot in Safestrap with the desired parameters. Restore the backup to the newly created slot. Once you are satisfied all us well you can delete the old slot. Use caution at each step so you don't accidentally overwrite/delete a 'good' slot.

In case it's not obvious you can't resize an existing safestrap slot.

Go to ''device manager'' in your computer; see if your device drivers are normal; even if it is, I would recommend a complete reinstall of all drivers and programs xperia related.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] highstream:
Amazon Warehouse sent the wrong Nexus 7 2013, Wi-Fi only instead of LTE, so am returning it. I'm following Jimmy McGee's video on restoring factory settings,* using NRT 2.0.5. This wasn't rooted, just upgraded from 4.3.0 to 5.1.0 (didn't note the original build number, so chose the last 4.3.0 listed in NRT). Everything seemed to go fine through the Bootloader running (8:35 into the video). After that it reboots, but in doing so it stuck on "Google." I turned the N7 off and restarted into the Bootloader screen again (fastboot mode) and tried to restart from there, but it's never getting to the moving balls. Recovery Mode shows the Android icon with the triangle and exclamation point, and then switches back to "Google."

* video: http://www.xda-developers.com/factory-reset-unroot-nexus-xdatv/

UPDATE: I got into Recovery Mode and chose Wipe data/factory reset. Showed data wipe complete (but nothing about factory reset), but it still stuck at Google on reboot. Same with Wipe cache partition. I should add that the Nexus is not currently being seen by my computer (Win 8.1), except when in Bootloader mode it's seen by NRM. I ran the whole NRM factory reset process again, but was informed this time that the system is 5.1.1, 5.1.0. Not sure why NRM didn't say anything the first time through (Google had downloaded 5.1.1, but I never ran the install). In any case, it ran the same way again, everything looking fine, but then hanging on Google during the reboot.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Eliminating ATT bloatware & S-bloatware

I have been wondering if it may be possible to eliminate all the bloatware from ATT and all bloatware from Samsung, by way of using the Kingroot process > then install Ti-Backup > then DELETE not freeze those applications.

Will such a thing work ? even if one may loose root after rebooting?

I there a possibility that that attempting something like that may cause a major crash on my phone?

In other words, I would like to be able to rid myself from all that bloatware that came with my out of the box N910-A i know about the disable feature on the apps manager, but i want those apps OUT.

Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer.

And I am STILL hoping for PERMA-root sometime in the near future :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] cstayton:
unfortunately no that wont work, if you delete or modify the system partition IN ANY WAY it will cause the DM_VERITY to kick in. until we get past the OS Verification and write protection we cant delete or modify anything.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] cstayton:
many devices with locked bootloaders have custom roms, The S5 for instance. it's not the locked bootloader that is preventing custom roms it is the need for permanent root, once we have that we can use flashfire or multirom to flash custom touchwiz roms. what the locked bootloader prevents is the ability to flash custom kernels thus preventing roms based off of CM or AOSP/AOKP

[Galaxy Note 3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cusp07:
Precautions and tools!

A common issue specially when you have high 'continuous' usage,

Also if you keep on charging device or charge the device immediately after great usage ,it happens.

Avoid this kind of usage! and use clean-master's cooling feature (only occasionly) .

---------- Post added at 01:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 PM ----------

use ram cleaners less frequently, use Greenify app to control amount of apps(those should not run continuously in background) running.

Also, disable air view,smart scroll ,motions and 'always allow scanning' in wifi settings.

Reduce the excess usage+charging continuously!

These small changes and monitoring the usage will only help.

Do post result!
