[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tai11:
Hi!

After flashing 23.1.A.128 with flashtool, the phone can't decide where to send audio. If the phone has headphones wired up, the sound is still coming out of the phone speakers (headphones are working fine, tested it with soundabout). If I send audio to headpones, and disable soundabout, afterwards it's still sending sound to headphones, even if they're disconnected. The only way to change audio output is through soundabout.

I had similar issue with rooted 23.0.A.2.93, but then clearing data of smart connect helped.

How do I root my SM-G900A?

it is running android 5.0 Lollypop. I have tried Kingo, TowelRoot (which is supposed to work on the ATT Galaxy S5 but doesn't), 1-Click Root, and Odin3. None of them are working... Is there another way to root my device? note: (i used to have a nexus 7 and a kindle fire which i rooted)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] FilthyFord:
If you took the ota 5.0 upgrade or bought the phone with the 5.0 firmware already on it there is currently no way to root and no way to downgrade. If you search ( 5.0 root or something along them lines ) you'll find plenty of threads talking about it.

Okay, thanks :)

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfcity:
You can read it above, you can do it if you are on 5.0.2. If you are on 6.x you have to be careful not to downgrade the bootloader and never ever update via OTA!

(Infos about downgrading android versions here: http://xdaforums.com/moto-g-2014/general/xt1063-t3018818

But if you´re on 5.0.2 you should be on the safe side.

how to prevent bootloader not to downgraded?

how to prevent bootloader not to downgraded?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfcity:
You can read that in the link given above:

Lollipop 5.0.2 to Kitkat 4.4.4 : If your bootloader version is 4882/4883(Lollipop Bootloader), you need to make some changes while flashing the ROM manually.

- Download Kitkat 4.4.4 Factory Firmware image zip.

- Unzip the contents.

- Delete the motoboot.img file inside the extracted contents..

- Do not type "mfastboot.exe flash motoboot motoboot.img" while flashing the Kitkat 4.4.4 firmware image manually.

4. If you downgrade your bootloader version i.e flash a 4883 Lollipop bootloader on your existing 4886 Marshmallow bootloader, your phone will be hard-bricked / permanently dead. Therefore follow the instructions above carefully. I am not responsible for dead phones.

You´ll find a lot of infos about that in the general section. Read all that carefully, downgrading stock is a tricky thing.

I personally would flash a custom rom.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amritmalviya:
sorry for trouble you but please answer my more questions.....

on bootloader 4886 i can flash lollipop and KitKat both....

and main thing is not to downgrade bootloader, isn't it?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfcity:
That´s right. But never upgrade via OTA again then because OTA doesn´t care about bootloaderversion and will hardbrick your phone.

If you down/upgrade stock rom you´ll have always to spare out boot.img (if you do it by using the commands one by one or if you do it by script. You have to delete the flash boot.img command out of the script/tool then).

This is only relevant for stock roms,custom roms doesn´t have this problem.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amritmalviya:
I have to skip just motoboot.img????????????
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wolfcity:
That´s what´s written in the "[GUIDE] [Titan] [MM, LP, KK] [Unlock + Root + Backup + Restore + Downgrade" thread and that´s what I know about that.

motoboot.img is the bootloader and if you don´t touch it you should be on the safe side.

I personally am on custom roms since 5.0.2 and have never flashed/downgraded/upgraded a stock rom again so I have no personal experience.

If you wanna be 100% sure ask [MENTION=5110858]SharkcpN[/MENTION], the one who wrote that thread.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prathameshsd:
You can safely downgrade by skipping motoboot.img while flashing.

Once you downgrade to a lower android version, do not install any further OTA updates of higher Android version else it might lead to hardbrick. After downgrading, go to Settings > Apps > MotorolaOTA > Disable it

If you want to update to a higher android version, flash the higher android version ROM via fastboot mode only.

Hi XDA friends,

Recently I've started to mess around with my Moto G's bootanimation.

Tried a few (Blackhole is nice), and opening the zip files, I found a series of .jpg files that are the sequence of images that compose the animation.

Now I'd like to make a bootanimation using a short video of my son, so my question is: is there a program that automates this process, creating the zip or a program that extracts the video frames to .jpg files?

I searched the forum but didn't found this info (maybe I'm not a good searcher, sorry).

Thanks for any help.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nitrous²:
XDA Senior Member [MENTION=4583616]Honzze[/MENTION] kindly pointed out to keep following in mind; You have to start JoelDroid Lollipop Batch Deodexer with Admin permissions. Otherwise this error might return "path variable" of Java "is not set".

Deodexing your existing ROM without having to flash an entire ROM

As the title says, with this awesome guide by XDA Senior Member [MENTION=3091591]townsenk[/MENTION] you don't have to reflash an entire new ROM to your device. Instead, youll just deodex those parts of your System which need to be modified in order to get Xposed working. You don't necessarily have to perform a full wipe if you do it this way. But if you encounter fc's or end up in a bootloop, you know what to do ;)

Guide for this guide:

Regarding point 1: "...launch a DOS shell..." just means, you need to open the so called "CMD" programm in Windows. To "launch a DOS shell" or CMD from within a folder, you simply have to hold down the shift key and right click in that folder. The context menu will show an entry "open command window here". And that's it! (Windows XP users may have to search the internet for another solution)

For Galaxy S5 and Note 3 users: If ADB returns "device offline" or an empty line after "List of devices attached" make sure your using a USB 2.0 data cable on a USB 2.0 port

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sachitoge:
Don't know if someone can help me as you stated that you're retired from this thread.

I did every step you do mentioned here (for self deodexing existing rom)

I did everything successfully and deodexed my files with 2.5 deodexer, putted files in the system folder to the 7zip folder and sent to my device and flashed zip, cleaned cache and dalvik and it stuck on booting for about 15 minutes. I know, it takes alot time during rebuildup of cache, but guys, it's 15 minutes! for me, if i cleanup cache and the dalvik/art cache, it just takes 1minute on boot screen to show up the image of each apps cache, but i just sat there with lots of patient for 15 minutes or a bit more and still same, stuck in same crappy booting logo.

I did restore my system files, now i'll try to retry it and send it again. Im suspicious of the zip file being corrupted during trasmitting to Device, however install was a big success so im very sure it wasnt corrupted. I'll do 2nd test and see it again if it's happening again.

If it does, i'll most likely try to figure out other ways to deodex as there is already deodexed roms out there, so they must have done is somehow.

Thanks, hope someone can help me out with this.

P.S: My adb works fine, i got usb drivers for my device, i got usb debug on, i got lots of space on phone, i got TWRP recovery which got very high compatibility when it comes to install anything from zip via recovery where almost all roms do work stable with TWRP.

omg brilliant [MENTION=2626840]nitrous²[/MENTION] ! thanks so much! its been days i keep trying to deodex with others tool...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maurizio1953:
Same happened to me.... Did you solved this problem?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sachitoge:
Nope, i ended up using CM12 (at that time, right now i got cm13 update).

Well i had to deodex apps to get xposed on TouchWiz, but i failed and didn't get headache because of the Xposed modules being not really well compatible on TouchWiz, so i jumped to CM, i find it more stable, and the CM13 is insane because it saves so much battery at stand by, compared to lollipop, the Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow is the biggest update in android history, that saves hell lot of battery (it can be also maybe because i don't have Xposed Framework in recent rom).

Anyway, im tired of it, and i don't need to hassle with Link2Sd because of Android Marshmallow offering to mount the SD Card, in the end, all my needs are being offered in this (for me) huge, best android update, being Marshmallow.

Try it i would say, so amazing.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maurizio1953:
Ok i would like to go to cm13 as you but i stil need the support to the gear s smartwatch so i decided to stay with touchwiz without xposed.

Hi everyone,

In this review i'm gonna present you one more very useful gadget from Hisgadget which i bought from here, it is the 11200mAh Introcircuit Power Castle and let's get to it

It comes in a rather small package indicating the best features of the device which are:

Aluminum alloy shell that is subjected to laser carving processing

Built in rechargable Li-ion battery with capacity of 11200mAh

2 standard output USB interfaces (1A and 2.1A)

Equipped with a LED flashlight

In the box we find:

The PowerBank itself

The charging cable

A carrying pouch

We also get a Hiscard for the Super User Program and the Amazon Reviewer Program

The device has a great built quality featuring an aluminum alloy shell and on the top we see the introcircuit logo and the digital screen indicating how many battery is left in the powerbank as well as to which port we have our devices connected.

On the front we see 2 USB 2.0 charging outputs as well as the MicroUSB input and the LED flashlight

Port 1 rating is 5V 2.1A and Port 2 is 5V 1A

You can charge all of your favourite gadgets as long as they have a 5V input and here it is in action charging my smarphone along with my tablet

Also if you have a cable like this one you can charge more than 2 devices at once

Coclusion

Personally i find it very useful especially when traveling or when i am somewhere remote and don't have access to power sockets and with the capacity of 11200mAh you can have your devices up and running for several more hours

This gadget is necessary for me since my smartphone and tablet don't have a removable battery and i can't replace it with a bigger one when i need more juice. Also built in batteries is the new trend in phones and this powerbank will be necessary for you too because your future phone is almost certain to have a non removable one

Pros:

Huge capacity of 11200mAh

Excellent build quality

2 USB charging outputs (1:5V 2.1A 2:5V 1A)

Fast charging

LCD info display

LED flashlight

Very compact

Price

Cons:

It only charges 5V input devices

[General Questions and Answers] JaboJG:
Hi all,

I won this phone in the arcade of a hotel in Spain. It's a Hyundai SP 5S. Seems like a legitimate Hyundai product from Hyundai Mobile in Spain.

Its specs are:

Android 4.4.2

MTK 6572M, dual core at 1GHz

5" screen at 480 x 854 (this sucks, main reason I want to root is to upgrade the resolution)

512MB RAM, 4GB flash

It's actually quite a good phone (especially since it was almost free) but it seems like I may be unable to root this. I've plenty of experience of rooting and installing many custom ROM's on my previous phones.

I've tried:

Latest Framaroot

Vroot/iRoot

Many other one click apps

I've dumped the ROM with SP Flash Tool and attempted to make CWM using the latest MediaTek Droid Tools however it gives the missing kernelGZ and no split boot image errors.

'fastboot oem unlock' only responds with "..." in fact all fastboot oem commands respond with the "..." however fastboot reboot works.

I was going to try the Easy Magic TWRP Installer but it says it doesn't work with 6Mb recovery sizes, which this device has. (checked in Block Info)

So I'm at a loss at what to do to get root on this phone.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Hey all,

Not sure if this is the right place but worth a shot...

I have the HP Stream 8 4G, which is an amazing device! It runs proper desktop Windows 8.1 and has everything you need in a mobile device.

BUT, I signed up for Tmobile's Unlimited 4G data plan and what they call a "phone" sim that they gave me does not allow me to connect to the internet.

A "tablet" sim works just fine, BUT they don't have an unlimited plan on those.

So I've been spending the better part of a week to find a way to "tell" Tmobile I have a "phone" and not a "tablet"!

Things I explored and thoughts I have about this:

Tricking Tmobile's server in recognizing my device as a phone should be possible, it might need some coding and a little program to intercept the initial data sent and change it appropriately, but still should be possible.

It could be IMEI based, but I think this is unlikely, as they do not recognize my device on their web app that tells you if your device is compatible with their network based on IMEI. But the device does work on their network, so we are ok there...

Even if it is IMEI, I should be able to intercept the sending of said number and send them my SIII IMEI, legally questionable, but worth a shot...

Most probably is APN issue, the proper APN with proper login configuration should do the trick, but searching and trying different APNs led me no where.

The other thing I am investigating is to install Windows Phone OS on the device and see if that "tricks" Tmobile, but the processor in the device is Intel not ARM and that could make things tricky...

Plus I can't find a way to install Windows Phone OS :( no iso or something.... In addition attempts to run an emulator on the device, e.g Andy, proved pointless as the RAM on the device is just 1GB :(

What else?

Oh I am trying to find a way to sniff the data that get transmitted to Tmobile on initialization of connection, but WinPcap 3.1 that could possibly sniff such connections needs older windows version.

This is the path I am currently on, I will revert to an older windows or Linux os check the data sent and see if the information is there and take it from there....

You guys have any insights in this?

I really need a way to make this work, it is the first time I found a device that is perfect for me, and a shame to have to revert to something that doesn't do everything I need just because of the label of the type of the device :(

Thank you for all your help in advance :)
