Ok...so I'm not crazy. I was worried about some forced update.

Maybe it had to do with the fact that I deny every one of the requests by LG, Google, and T-Mobile to "monitor their service they provide" or "provide automatic feedback" (I forget the exact wording) when I set the phone up. I never have liked the idea of sharing any info off my phone with anyone upstream of it. Just seems like a way to try to spam or sell me crap I don't need.

Did you also uncheck all those boxes during setup?
[G4 General] itiskonrad:
H810 from AT&T does not have these check boxes, unfortunately. The dialer code doesn't work either =(
[G4 General] smw6180:
Yep. I don't do 'anonymous' statistics. Though clicking the box <insert paranoia/tin-foil hat here> doesn't necessarily mean you're turning it off...nothing says those boxes do anything one way or the other. :)
[G4 General] davelee1054:
I work in the software industry, and I can tell you first hand that checking or unchecking the box changes very little about the data collected abour you. It's just there for legal reasons honestly
[G4 General] Th3Bill:
Kinda figured as much...just figure I would rather NOT give my permission than give it. At least then, I can say I didn't ask for their spam...

Just added lastly to list to turn-off wifi. (TMO forces update on wifi without prompt even if you disable OTA.)
[G4 General] MicroMod777:
Also need to delete all your wifi connections. TMO is forcing wifi on and if you've logged into your network you will be updated.

[G4 General] Alcor10:
Are you SURE I can't use Wi-Fi? (H811 here T-Mobile) my friend's house doesn't get service and I heavily rely on Wi-Fi calling there and at my college. Is there a way I could disable a service or what not? Also on a different note since y'all know more than I do about the G4's services. If I'm under the tmobile.pr.adapt service in a disabler app can I kill all of it without hurt? Nothing seems necessary I just want to disable T-Mobile's monitoring crap. Thank you and I apologize for being ot.
[G4 General] MicroMod777:
This doesn't work.
[G4 General] Alcor10:
Thanks? What part doesn't work. I hate to sound prude, but that didn't answer much. Thanks again.
[G4 General] MicroMod777:
OTA still updated on wifi. Carriers disabled this feature.
[G4 General] Alcor10:
Gotcha, thank you for the info. I'll just flash the OTA Disabled Rom for the H811. That way I'll be good to go.

Something very strange on my h815 euro version.although i unchecked do not update automaticaly or with wifi i saw that it started to download the update without asking me and i had to pause it and cancel the download..any ideas? The hidden menu trick doesnt have wifitest..
[G4 General] MTKnife:
This code works on the Sprint version: 5689#*991#.

However, in the Sprint Hidden Menu, the wi-fi test, which is buried in Device Test, doesn't include an OTA setting--and I can't find one elsewhere, either. Would blocking the Sprint Installer APK block OTA updates? See http://xdaforums.com/g4/help/how-to-prevent-updates-g4-t3148650

You'll find software updates under "about phone". Try to set them to auto update both in WiFi and mobile data. I had to turn WiFi off and on again.
[G4 General] Johnny Broccoli:
^^^^

Not if you've disable OTA via debloating.
[G4 General] Blizard573:
I flashed the Rom that disabled it
[G4 General] android404:
Well...

I doubt it's a good idea to take an ota from a customised rom. And ota is probably removed anyways, not just disabled.
[G4 General] AUSTAB2012:
Works on the H815T. Good guide?
[G4 General] shafiqonline:
Hello Everyone,

Expecting everyone will be fine.

Yes the disabling of OTA works for me. I have LG F320K (olleh) with original android os (F320K11C.kdz) and then after flashing i update my cell phone. I was stuck in updates but disabling OTA works for me.

In order to enter the hidden menu dail ............................. 3845#*model name# it will bring you to hidden menu. then follow the first post (with pictures). NOTE that the code I provided in my post only works for LG G2 for T-Mobiles and F320K olleh.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baylee Ray:
Hello guys I'm a total n00b when it comes to rooting and such and I have a question, that most of you guys will probably find dumb but I'm seriously confused.

I ordered the Zenfone 2 with 4gb ram & 64 gigs of storage and I plan on rooting it once it arrives.

What is the difference between rooting your phone and installing a custom rom such as cyanogenMod?

What are the benefits to both and the main difference?

Is one easier to do and is less risky or what?

Please explain in a way I can understand, thank you!! :confused:
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] french-anonymous:
Rooting the phone means you can modify the system files. It's useful because you can add or remove features of the stock rom on your phone (theme manager, ad blocker, and almost anything you may need)

Cyanogenmod is a rom based on AOSP (Android Open Source Project, by Google), it's rooted, and comes with a lot of features that are not in AOSP.

For the moment, there is no Cyanogenmod rom for our beloved Zenfone 2, and maybe it will never happen. But only time can say.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sooty84:
well.

Rooting mean to gain Super User (SU) to your phone, it mean that you are the master of the device and you can overwrite anything because you are the hierarchy top. ( this is also why device tend to be bricked by noobs because rights(permission) given to change anything.

Top mod of android currently are cyan and MIUI

Cyanogen is a custom rom which build on top of the default Android. it come with root and you can basically manage any part of the phone, it remove many bloatware and just clean and open android OS that look like a default Android.

MIUI is another custom rom, similar as cyanogen but it's appearance look like Iphone and behave similar as Iphone. ( they are the Iphone wannabes) its also clean.

well, don't root because you just want to, root because you need function that require you to. mostly without root, you can do many stuff such as installing unsigned apk. unlike iphone, which must root to install unsigned apps.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baylee Ray:
So if I download a custom rom such as Cyanogenmod is it easier to update software? Or do I still have to unroot to update OTA and then reroot?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
A custom ROM such as cyanogenmod would replace the Stock firmware, so you would not apply ota updates. Instead, the updates would come from the ROM maker.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Baylee Ray:
Thank you so much! Makes complete sense!:)
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mogrith:
Simply put

rooting allows you to change system files. CyanogenMod is a bunch of files that need root so they can be applied..

But since CyanogenMod is not out for Zenfone 2. I would not root it yet. Rooting can cause ASUS updates to fail.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sooty84:
when you apply custom rom to your phone ( be it Cyan or MIUI), they become your "phone manufacturer"

why i say that is because they will release the software update to your device instead of Asus for instance if you gotten zenfone 2.

with that said, most of the time, custom rom is better then official rom however, if the custom rom group stopped patching and your phone might still have some bugs.... you are on neck held by these groups. while it is the same for Asus but they are a company which they are being held legal for updating any flaws to your phone till end of life of the product.

there are good and bad, if you want to come into the scene, then make sure you are always up to date with what is and what not.

this make you strong in modding your phone and knowing what is going on too. and also... if you aspire to be a system engineer, this is 1 first step too. handphone is a miniature eco-system of how network works, while you start modding and deal with unix command, that is what system engineer does.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
I guess it's not for the faint of heart. But as long as you restore the /system back to stock by flashing pre-root, unrooting, and uninstalling xposed, then you won't go wrong.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ansebovi:
Installation of CyanogenMod don't need root, they need unlocked bootloader and recovery that's all.. Root is needed only for editing system files

If I click on a new message received notification, in a thread of messages (even if there are only a couple back and forth, not a long list or anything), it seems like there is quite the lag before the message thread is displayed. If you agree and are using a different messaging app, which one are you using?
[Moto X Q&A] Orange Offizier:
So yesterday, at about 3:20, I dropped my phone into the toilet (there was nothing in the toilet, thank god). It fell in so the screen made contact with the water, but the phone was never submerged, it only floated. I immediately pulled it out, and dried it off. After this, it kept working so I kept using it. It began dying so I plugged it in without second thought, and it didn't charge. After this, I put it in a bag of rice for 6 hours. After that, I decided the water that did get in (1 drop in the charging port, nothing anywhere else) had been dried up. I must've been wrong, since that shorted out my phone. So here I am today, with the question of how do I test to see if it is my battery or the PCB that is shorted out, so I can replace the battery or replace the phone, in each respective case.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FudgyBadger:
The device just keeps rebooting endlessly, I flashed moonbreaker rom and when rebooting the device this happened.

No idea what to do to resolve it, please can someone assist me, the device is completley unsuable. Only option is to return it and hope for a new one I'm guessing?
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schetz:
It would be better if you asked in respective ROM thread ,not opening a new one, just sayin..

You can either :

- enter recovery,flash disable exposed zip,you can find in moonbreaker thread,and see if it solved it.

- clean flash prerooted rom ,you can find one in general section

If all fails,you can enter fastboot mode and flash ftf via flashtool or even try with PC Companion if everything else fails.There should be a repair option within PC companion,haven't used it though,but you should find it easily.

[Moto X Q&A] UG_Axel:
Hey guys, last night I tried to root my device (XT1058) following the guide [here](http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/howto-root-moto-x-ver-4-4-4-xt1060-t3118342). Stupid me decided I wouldn't need to go back to stock ROM like it says in the first step. I continue with the guide, follow every step, until I reboot. After rebooting my Moto X gets stuck at the white screen with the blue circle M. I panicked, read a lot of things online, followed them, and nothing worked. I reset the cache partition in recovery mode when rebooting into fastboot, still nothing. I also noticed that my device is no longer detected in ADB at all, even in fastboot. So after just giving up, I read online in multiple places going to recovery mode, and wiping the whole phone/factory resetting would fix it. It still is not recognized by ADB or finishing booting. I realize I should've been more careful. Please help!
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
First thing... when the phone is in Fastboot AP menu, you can't use ADB. ADB wont work and wont see your phone unless the phone is fully booted. (i.e. adb.exe and fastboot.exe use two different modes on the phone).

Next, I've seen that symptom before, but I don't recall how to fix.

I would really consider asking in the thread for the process you were following.

If no one gives you any suggestion, you could always try re-flashing the stock image for your phone that matches the highest version you've had installed on your phone. (On fastboot screen you can see bootloader version, so match you stock version to that. see the list of known bootloader versions at -> http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/info-warning-risks-downgrading-impacts-t3058202 ) And use mfastboot to flash it (follow option 5 in the 2nd post at -> http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/faq-how-to-prepare-ota-update-carriers-t3126425 )
[Moto X Q&A] tormin:
I'm pretty sure I saw this on reddit. You had a mac right?

Assuming you have fastboot working on your mac and your phone this thread method two:

http://xdaforums.com/moto-x/general/guide-moto-x-return-to-100-stock-using-t2446515

Use fastboot instead of mfastboot for the sytem.img file.

fastboot -S 0 flash system system.img

I'm interested in getting a ROM for my Canadian Note 3 N900W8. My friend only pointed me to the Cyanogenmod website and I have no idea which rom to get. I'm looking in the HLTE section. I see nightlies with a risk that they may be unstable but under stable or milestone, there are no roms to download, and the only other option is snapshot.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imsiin:
Hey! I was just going to post a question about the GPS issues I've been having with TW custom lollipop ROMS. I've tried s6 ports, note 4 ports , edge ports and all of them seem to have GPS issues. I downloaded GPS test and could never get a fix on my location . I figured it was a ROM issue so I went from ROM to ROM until I found xposed deathnote ROM for n900w8 which after flashing would acquire a signal right away . After restoring all my apps I went to flash a custom kernel so I could flash Viper and this is where I found the issue. As soon as I rebooted I lost my GPS so I started flashing kernels and finally found fulgor which not only fixed my GPS issues but is compatible with Viper.

I'm not sure if it's a bug or just the custom kernels not being compatible with n900w8 hardware but the fulgor kernel has been the only one that works.

FYI I had to re flash DOC firmware for my GPS to work . Before that didn't matter what kernel I used I had no lock on my location .

Also if I did a clean install no titanium backup restore my GPS did work with those other ports. I'm not sure if it's a combo of flashing xposed , custom kernel and restoring that was causing my GPS issues. .

Sorry I couldn't provide you with a definite reason why our n900w8 are having these GPS issues, maybe someone with more knowledge can chime in.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Garrett1972:
Thanks a ton! I've been using XDA for years, rooted/modded an S2, Note 10.1 2014 and my daily driver n900w8. Like how nice and easy CM is great I can do it on an old S2. Still battle with GPS, the unified daemon, etc., but generally sticking with Lollipop. I was considering the Deathnote ROM, but I've never seen the fulgor kernel suggestion before. Will have to check it out. CM 12.1 had much better cell signal and performance, but some other stability issues. Always a trade off!

Do you notice better battery life when the GPS lock works? Still have working NFC with deathnote? Seems like some hit and miss for people. Thanks!

As far as I have tried no LP rom has a working NFC for N900W8 until Samsung releases our kernel source code (someone correct me if I'm wrong?) The developer for the Fulgor kernel has stopped development and is focused on audax kernel so not sure if fulgor will give you the best results. I'm too scared to start flashing kernels again since I have my phone set up perfectly which took me hours of restoring and tweaking lol.. gl

May try it this weekend. Don't use NFC much but would like to implement NFC tags, which is why I'm holding back too.
[MX Player] kflash06:
Hi !

In France , an ISP called FREE released a new TV BOX which is called the Freebox Mini 4K.

This box runs Android TV .

It has a Broadcom BCM7252 Brahma15 dual-core 1.5Ghz SOC .

Many users have installed Kodi but there have some problems .

Many users use MXPlayer because it is the best player on this Android Box, it is on the AndroidTV Play Store and it has the best video quality. But however KODI works with HDMI and S/PDIF passtrough in AC3 / DTS .

Is it possible to have this option with MxPlayer ?

Can anyone assist in the French community? = D
[MX Player] nikogu:
hi, i have the same problem here:

with the new Sony Android TV, i think that MX Player it's the only way to play videos on that tv (VLC actually sucks), but there's that problem with DTS encoding!

Can mx player developers fix it? :D :good:
[MX Player] shaitand:
Same here in the US. The default plex player does not support mkv, so I have to use mx player pro. Unfortunately MX player pro does not give me the ability to pass through audio! My receiver can decode DTS, Dolby, etc I just need the player to do audio passthrough!
[MX Player] sumantaadk:
v 1.7.40 can do this. My device have native support for ac3/dts but with 1.8.1 MX refuse to play ac3. Damn it
[MX Player] CDB-Man:
Hmm [MENTION=5607495]sumantaadk[/MENTION] I assume that when it previously worked, you were using HW, and not HW+ ?

@ everyone else, I assume you have already tried the custom audio codec? MX by itself does not support DTS.
[MX Player] sumantaadk:
My device only support sw decoder for the video I have. I still can play ac3/dts with previous version but the beta completely remove the possibility. I think developer removed support due to copyright issue. So the current issue is bug or because of copyright?
[MX Player] CDB-Man:
AC3/DTS was support was removed by default due to copyright, yes; that's one of the main reasons to use the custom codec.

I would have thought that if you use HW and passthru to Android media framework to use the device's native render, that this method would have allowed for DTS...
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Beacuse, you are using old custom codecs. If you want to play dts or ac3 you must use the custom codec compiled for the specific version of the player. After the update, if the old codec is found as incompatible it will be automatically unloaded. MX Player 1.8.x needs custom codec version 1.8.0.
[MX Player] sumantaadk:
Sorry but I am not using any custom codec. I am using unofficial cm11 which have inbuilt support for ac3/dts. I have clean MX player. Current market version support both ac3/dts.
