[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Make sure you keep at least one CM nandroid that includes internal memory backup in case you have trouble.

I do believe you need to wipe internal memory switching between CM and TW as well the the Android folder on the ExtSdCard.

I'd suggest backing up your photos, downloads and have your titanium backup on ExtSdCard, if possible.

Coming back to TW, I recommend the wipes, flash TW ROM, reboot recovery and flash once more before your initial boot. It may help restore TW partitions, if that still applies. Any problem with boot after that, wipe cache and dalvik and reboot.

I wouldn't be afraid of Odin stock BOB7 tar if any doubt or troubles in the process or you suspect a soft brick. But still retain the nandroid and wipes first. Do a full power down, like a battery pull prior to Odin of stock tars.

And if you can't Odin BOB7, you may have taken the OE1 OTA update. In that case, try a TW ROM with custom kernel.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] us3rX:
I swap back and forth when I get in the mood to try to fix/adjust the data/sms issues, But never had an issue going back to TW. Did you make a backup of your original rom before going to CM? Thats what I did. Worst case, You can always odin the latest software and that should fix your problems.

I believe you only need to wipe internal storage when going back to kk. Aslo how long did you wait to boot?alliance ROM took a while for me.

Seems like this problem is common on this tablet.. So it's been like a few days since my nexus 7 hasn't booted up or showed the charging sign when i plugged it in the original charge or a different charger...

I've done everything, took it apart and reinserted battery, charged it for sure, pressed power button for 30+ seconds, pressed power volume and all three..

any suggestion? This happened like suddenly, was working fine and just died.... any suggestions?

Hmm how did you get towel root to work

[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thisisapoorusernamechoice:
If this is like a lot of Samsung devices then what's going on is the early firmware (NE2) was rootable with towelroot, but the more recent one (NK1) is not. Check your settings > about tablet to see which build number you're on (I'm assuming it's NK1). The most immediate solution would be to just downgrade the firmware, root, and stay with that (disable update notifications/freeze the updater app).

However, if you know what you're doing, it's only the kernel that needs to be changed. So extract the kernel file (boot.img) from both firmware files and make a tar file for each boot.img. Flash the older kernel, root with towelroot, then flash the newer kernel, and voila you're rooted on the latest build. Your call

[Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
I own the Tab S. It was released after towelroot was patched. So recently when Kingroot update their root method and such, we now can root with kingroot on KitKat ANK1 firmwares and not trip Knox. Of course people who owned att devices said it worked and some with Verizon said it didn't work. I mean its worth a try if anyone wants to try kingroot.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kickberto:
Hey,

I was wondering if the "factory reset/wipe data" from the recovery menu deletes the /sdcard folder? I did this multiple times on my Nexus 5 and my photos, music and stuff are still there, same with everything in my download folder. Is that normal? I did a factory reset on another Nexus 5 and all data was gone, I had to re-login to a lot services and photos are not on the device anymore, just on google+. Is that the way it should be?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peachpuff:
Which recovery did the other n5 have?

Twrp doesn't delete anything from the sdcard if you chose factory reset.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kickberto:
it had automatic restore activated on both devices. I assume the Nexus 5 factory reset should delete the /sdcard folder. Its just a virtual sdcard on the nexus 5. I does not have a sd slot. how would you be able to delete everything from the device? I'm just confused why one nexus 5 wipes the sdcard folder during the factory reset and the other doesn't. is it a bug? or is there a setting which on activation, preserves the /sdcard folder during a factory reset?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opssemnik:
factory reset on custom recoveries only delete /data, and /cache files and folders(EXCEPT /data/media folder, since its the internal sdcard)

factory reset on stock recovery formats /data and /cache, which deletes the folder media inside data(which is the sdcard, /sdcard is just a symlink for bad applications which have /sdcard hard coded in their file calls)

It dosen´t matter any setting or config you have under you system, both recoveries ignore anything related to system
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kickberto:
both nexus 5s are stock. so the photos and all other media should be gone after a factory reset right? I wonder why mine doesn't do that.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itsmealis:
Hi, so apparently I screwed up badly?

I have a LG G2 LG D805 and I was trying to install the CloudyG3 LP ROM, but I failed to see it was only for some variants, and mine wasn't included. Except I only noticed it after wiping System and, well, basically everything on my phone. So I'm getting the LG stuck screen, of course.

I can get into Recovery just fine, so I went to TWRP (that is still accessible) and:

* I tried adb push a new ROM on my phone, but I can't make my computer recognize my phone

*I tried adb sideload to the same effect (I get stuck on "Start SDB sideload feature..." and my PC doesn't recognize it)

Funny enough, my computer does makes the little USB connected sound? But when I list adb devices, the list is empty. Doing adb sub just says "device not found". I even changed cable/port, but nothing.

Then I tried to go to Download Mode and use LG Flash Tool to flash my phone but... I'm getting an error on the computer when trying to do that. I can still access TWRP though.

I'm scared of trying something else and making this worse? So if anyone could point me to a way of fixing my phone, I would be so so so grateful. :crying: please this is my only phone and I use it for work!

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Addapp:
Hey,

I have some old samsung ace 2 that I was experimenting around with, wanted to try and get some 5.1.1 ROM on it. But first I figured I needed to get some kernel on it, though I did something which now means that during bootup it is stuck on the samsung galaxy ace 2 logo. I can access ODIN mode, though cant access recovery mode. The battery mode also seems to be broke too as it just displays a loading symbol. So far I have flashed the EK kernel on it with what seems to be a success according to ODIN mode. Also note that Samsung KIES tries to connect to my device in ODIN mode but it never connects and troubleshooting doesnt do anything.

I tried to flash stock firmware to it through the odin software whilst my phone was in odin mode, though it displays a bunch of stuff in the odin pc software then attempts to reboot my phone though it just gets stuck on the boot logo again without odin really doing much here are the logs:

[Android Themes] jcole20:
These are designed for phones with 1080x1920 resolution. I'm new to creating CM themes but wanted to share. I've been working on these for a couple of days really though I've been theming phones for years. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Hi, below are multiple themes (all based on a Material design in several different colors) I've made and am sharing free of charge to everyone. I made these themes with the use of Photoshop, Gimp, ThemeDIY, apktool, Notepad++, 7-zip, and with color suggestions from members of XDA. If there's a color you would like to see that is not listed you can simply comment a color/hex code below and I will do my best to create a theme to match what you want to see. The icon pack in the screenshots below is not included in the themes as it is a paid icon pack. It is titled Devo by StealthyChief.

Right now I'm simply creating themes, though I'll likely start on an icon pack soon. Anyways, hope you enjoy.

Please note that these themes change audiofx, the play store, and again 21 other apps I just didn't want to post 100 screenshots.

DARKMATERIAL I have just added and released... it needs to be noted that this is a beta release and is an early version of the theme... it's mostly flawless but it does have a few issues with certain apps that I am working out. A second version to correct these issues will be released soon. Please do not be afraid to try it though... I love the theme. It is meant to be an alternative to DeepDarkness by moelle, though DeepDarkness is a great theme. I just believe all themes should be free of charge. I'm okay with charging for icon packs, but the themes are very easy to make. I don't know... it's just my opinion. If someone feels I shouldn't release the theme please message me and I'll consider taking it down. It's not a replica of the paid theme but it is definitely similar and was inspired by that theme. Anyways, enjoy!

Nice. I only have 3 question:

1. After rooting, will I still recieve OTA updates when they become available with the new dev previews?

2. Can I use Clockwork recovery instead? My devices never play nice with TWRP.

3. I never flashed a custom kernel, is it any more dangerous than flashing a custom ROM? Can it irreparably ruin my phone? Does this kernel offer any advantage besides permissive SELinux?
[Nexus 5 General] F4uzan:
1. Yes, it should (or if not, just flash system images / firmware images)

2. Yes

3. If you flash a custom ROM, the you flash a custom kernel. That's the logic. So basically it has the same risk of flashing a custom ROM. The kernel offers some tweakable features (it can be tweaked via an app)

Irrespective of what I select on this message, the call goes through. But it totally defeats the purpose of handsfree bluetooth mode. Is there something that is not allowing the bluetooth device to wake my phone up and then place the call? How do I solve this?
