[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] easych1ller:
first thanks for that fast answer!

My plan is:

- flash stock recovery

- factory reset

- flash custom recovery twrp

- flash cyanogenmod 12.1

, do i than should use RUU or is it also easy enough (with mac) to do it just the manually way?

greetings!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
No need to use a RUU, just do what you ve listed above in this order and you'll be fine.

Here is a guide how to set up fastboot and adb on your mac, its a little old but you'll get the idea how to proceed

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1917237

Don't forget to add ./ before each command as required on mac e.g:

./fastboot flash recovery your_stock_recovery_file.img
./fastboot erase cache
./fastboot reboot-bootloader

factory reset

./fastboot flash recovery your_TWRP_recovery_file.img
./fastboot erase cache
./fastboot reboot-bootloader

flash your CM rom
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] easych1ller:
is it enough to just erase the cache or do i have to wipe also some other parts?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
You wipe cache and reboot the bootloader every time you flash a different recovery

so again:

Flash stock recovery

factory reset

flash twrp recovery

fash your rom.

step 1 and 3 detailed in my previous post...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] easych1ller:
at least i have now a bootloop when starting cyanogenmod..

i flashed the stock recovery in fastboot, went to bootloader and did a factory reset, than

i entered again the bootloader and flashed twrp with fastboot. After that i entered the

twrp recovery and made a restore of my nandroid backup. But no i stuck in the nightly

loading screen...

anyone an idea what to do? i also wiped dalvik cache and cache after restore but it does not help...
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
after factory reset, flash latest twrp version, boot in recovery, wipe everything + format data. Reboot the recovery and then flash latest CM rom.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] easych1ller:
okay thanks for help. at least i think my nandroid backup is broken. it does idle in the bootload.

So i flashed after wiping a new cm and restored everything with titaniumbackup!

does anyone know, if it is possible to make a full encryption now with twrp 2.8.7.0?

For Getting the Stock ROM

Use Flashtool by Androxyde

Search for a Menu in the Menu Bar of the Program which Shows the "Check Updates" Option....Select That

Search for The Device....

U would get a list of Firmwares...

Double Click the Region of Firmware u had(if u know well)..

IT will show the latest available firmware for that Region..

I guess again Double Clicking would make it Download the Firmware......(This Works)...

But download speed can b slow(it was, for me, but u shd do this)

U will Surely Get the Firmware...

if u r not getting stock rom of ur region....then

Flash any other region ROM( OF ur Device Only) flashtool Itself

EDIT:- Its there in the Internet ...use Flashtool

If u don't know abt it...

Maybe if you ask one of the devs of your device to port it to xperia c? :/ that might work :)
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaffeetrinker:
The SP gets so much attention because of it's unique illumination bar. You can't compare it to phones with a similar age that have nothing "special".

I hate it myself to get "nope"-answers to my questions. But I don't think there will ever be as many Roms for the C as there are for the SP.

And asking a developer to port something to something... I've never seen a developer reacting to these questions.

They work on phones they are interested in. A regular 2013 phone is not interesting enough for them :(

I really don't like to say that, but if you want a Lollipop Rom on your phone, sell your C and get a SP or an older Samsung.

Sell it as long as there are still people out there who want to buy a Jellybean or KitKat phone.

With a little luck, you can get a lollipop phone without spending any Dollar/Euro/Whatever in the end.

I can imagine you didn't want to get an answer like this, but it's the sad truth...

Getting vertical lines on smt700 non rooted after over the air update (U.S)

After update I did a factory reset installed apps One by one and I started to notice a flicker of VERTICAL lines appearing at start of boot and also when batter is low it will freez slightly and do the vertical line thing before freezing a little then shutting off..

this only also with games...

try everything to solve this flickering with vertical line issue.

Nothing worked..

Factory reset, disable hardware overlays and limit performance ultimately won't fix this issue...
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sunrisechaser:
I have the same issue.

Downgrading does not solve the problem

I have seen that it happens when battery is lower than 50%.

To mitigate the problem I have set seen brightness to 30% fixed and also losing mobile segnala makes the screen flicker or the tablet to reboot

When you rotate the tablet do the vertical lines rotate as well.

All problems started only after lollipop update.well most of us are getting them,,random reboots,green flickering lines,grey bars etc,,

iam facing this issue with my t705

its not the lollipop fault

its an hardware problem, the battery connector socket
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NightShadow02:
This happened to me before and after the lollipop update. Someone suggested to use power saving mode to restrict CPU usage. It seems as if the tablet goes crazy whenever theres a high cpu load involved.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sefto:
I have the same problem after update to lolipop. Most often occurs when there is a lot of notifications and low battery.

In my opinion is a software problem, what do you think ?

edit:

8% battery, lot of vertical lines during using notifications center, tablet reboots - this never happened before (on 4.4).
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geminiahmed:
[SOLVED]

Fixed screen flickering issue !!

did this by governing the frequency to not pass more than 1.6 ghz...

Rooting then installing overclock widget and setting frequency to not pass 1.6ghz. Max..

From what I know about chips ''they are not all baked alike'' the same chip could come out with lower stable frequencies ..

I hope this helps someone for it has 100% solved the screen flickering problem for my smt700...

Thanks...

My relative has complained of an odd flicker (screen goes briefly black) after updating to Lollipop. Usually happens while moving from an app to the home screen. I sent them instructions based on that article so they can test if it fixes their issue. I'll post the results but likely after a few days to make sure it actually works. Oddly enough I have an identical model SM-T800 on Lollipop and do not have the issue that they find so annoying.

Thanks for posting the article.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flhthemi:
I've seen it on mine since Lollipop came along. In my case I get the screen with snow - like a TV tuned to a channel with no signal - . It's happened when the screen was timed out and then awakened. I've not been bothered by it more than about 5 or 6 times so I've just not bothered with doing anything about it.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corvus.corax:
I thought it was a lollipop issue, but having followed the advice to force GPU screen rendering through developer options, I found the problem did not go away. Thus, it must be a hardware issue.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geminiahmed:
Hello,

Did you try to set the default CPU frequency to 1.6 ghz... maybe even try to govern it down to 1.4ghz.

For my WiFi smt700 simply underclocking the cpu completely fixed the issue...

The issue is due to either your tab cpu wasn't from a set baked that could handle Higher work loads or quick raises in frequency like from sleep or switching between apps.. forcing GPU rendering take away resources from cpu and forces the GPU to do the work.. Hopefully an official kernel update could help with this in the future...

But for now under clocking the cpu or force GPU rendering or powersave mode all appear to help resolve the screen flickering issue and the only constant that I can determine is that these fixes all involve taking away workload from the cpu...

UNDER CLOCK FOR NOW !!

Thanks... (hope underclocking helps some members here)

-Ahmed-
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] corvus.corax:
That's interesting. Unfortunately, my device is not rooted yet and I don't plan to do that in the near future. So while I can use powersaving, I can't underclock. If there is a problem with the quality of the CPU, then IMO Samsung owes me a fully working device. I mean, they sold the device with the idea it was able to run at correct speeds.

Take off the battery cover,clean all the antena contacts,(scratch them with a needle or something) lift the contact pins a little bit,but be careful not to brake them.Disconnect the battery and reconnect it(repeat few times).

[Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Smozoe:
Hi there,

I have some problems after I tried to downgrade my Sony Xperia Z3C from Android 5.0.2 to 4.4.4.

I hope you can help me. I searched some hours now and tried to fix it myself, but nothing helped.

Now the problem: The phone does not boot. I get following message: "the software update failed make sure that your phone is connected to the computer and try again".

So far so bad. Then I tried to put the downloaded firmware via Flashtools on the device. But the problem is, that my device disconnects every minute and after some seconds it connects again and so on. So I do not have a constant connection to load the firmware on the phone. In another thread I have read, that maybe the drivers could be the problem, but I installed the Flashmode drivers and Fastboot drivers.

Another problem is, that the hard-reset does not work. Not with vol+ and power and not with the yellow button next sim-card.

I really need help. Thank you and Kind Regards.

2) I do not know the MMS settings for T-Mobile. I have been unsuccessful in setting that up.

3) Is it true that to use the 3G features of a phone, I would need a 3G SIM?

4) Do you think it is feasible to just format the phone and load it with the T-Mobile MDA software since both the phones use the same software?

I have a 8525 and T-Mobile Total Internet, but...

Here's the settings that I tried per suggestion of this site and others:

Network name: T-Mobile Data

Access point: internet2.voicestream.com

UN/PW: (blank)

Proxy: none

This did not work with Internet Explorer. My email setup for IMAP mail through GMail worked though. So I tried this:

Access point: internet2.voicestream.com

UN/PW: (blank)

Proxy: HTTP=216.155.165.50:8080

This also did not work with IE. So I tried this:

Proxy: HTTP (same as above), WAP=216.155.165.50:9201, Secure WAP=216.155.165.50:9201

Same thing, didn't work. I changed the access point to wap.voicestream.com, and IE works but it always wants to use the WSP protocol (not the case when I use a standard WiFi connection and I thought this would change when I got the Total Internet package)

I thought that I wouldn't need to set up proxy server settings on my phone at all when I got Total Internet. Any thoughts as to why I still have to? I had TMobileweb before and had to enter the proxy servers before.

I also have try to flash but it says that usb debugging is not enabled so how must i change this if i can not boot into my device ?

How can i wipe all data and install latest firmware ( or at least how can i boot into my table again )

Hope someone can point me in the right direction.

[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
Hello everyone,

I recently bought a Huawei Honor 4X, and there's one annoying problem with it. The phone apparently has two microphones, which it uses to do some sort of "noise reduction". But, I generally speak very softly, and it's chopping off most of my words, apparently thinking that they're noise. The problem goes off if I shout, but that's not a very good workaround.

So, is it possible, somehow to tell the phone not to do this fancy noise reduction stuff, and just let the sound go in? Some App? Some Root-mode settings? Some custom ROM stuff (I haven't played around with custom ROMs, though)? Or atleast some techniques to kill that second microphone with a tape or something? Anything?
