[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funchomix:
Im not sure but i guess if you flash via odin it will be a fresh clean install so you better backup all your data and go for it.

The process is quite simple, just download 4.4 rom from sammobile and make sure you have the drivers installed in your PC.

There is an explanation of the process in sammoblie just follow it.

GL and let us know if it worked :good:

PS: No root needed

Download stock rom and then using odin flash it. No root or anything else is needed

[Android Apps and Games] AlvaroGzP:
Hi! I have published my first Android Game on Google Play.

It's name is NEXTATION, and you can download it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.FYASoftware.MetroGame

Here are some screenshots:

You are a train driver and have to collect passengers from stations while you move to the final station of the map. Then you are given points based on the passengers collected and the time spent (more time, less points).

It is integrated with Google Play Games and your points are posted to leaderboards where you can compare them with others. Also, you can unlock the achievements we have created to discover the game in depth.

The game has been done with Unity3D by me (as developer) and a friend of me (as designer). We started working on it on April, almost full time, and continued with fewer time (due to other obligations) until now. We are now improving the graphics and adding more functionality to it.

NEXTATION is completely free, with no ads or in-app purchases.

Note: The in-game text is in spanish (not yet localized, but planned to do soon), but it has very few text, so you will play fine even if you don't speak it.

Please, install it and tell us your opinions about it. Here is the link again:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.FYASoftware.MetroGame​
[Android Apps and Games] AlvaroGzP:
any opinions/suggestions? We are now improving it, so it's the time to make them!
[Android Apps and Games] AlvaroGzP:
Come on, give it a try!

We are going to release an update in the following days.
[Android Apps and Games] AlvaroGzP:
Please, if you try it, give here an opinion/review
[Android Apps and Games] AlvaroGzP:
Tomorrow we are publishing version 3.3!
[Android Apps and Games] AlvaroGzP:
We have just released version 3.3 with the following changes:

Free Cam: Now you can move in the map independently of the Train. That way you can anticipate it to select its route.

Improved points handling in multiplayer matches.

Other minor bugfixes.

Please, install it and tell us your opinion!
[Motorola Droid 4] ahri620:
I have a Motorola droid 4 & I'm switching over to Verizon on Monday. (I currently have a Samsung Galaxy note 4 with at&t). I rooted my Motorola & put cm12 on it, but idk if it'll still work with Verizon service then. I couldn't find any answers on here or the Verizon website. Basically, can I keep my phone on cm12 or would I have to switch it back to the stock ROM to use it on Verizon's network? This is the first phone I've ever rooted that I actually plan on using as a phone. Thanks for any help anyone can give me :)
[Motorola Droid 4] Septfox:
If you plan on using it as a 4G/LTE device, then yes, it should be fine. Your customer information is stored on the SIM card, at the worst you'll have to go into Mobile Network Settings and change them to appropriate values (CDMA+LTE/EVDO and RUIM/SIM subscription type, I think, someone else will have to confirm).

If you wanted to use it as a 3G device...I'm not even sure Verizon themselves used to allow that (MVNOs did, but Verizon put a stop to that at the beginning of the year), and they certainly won't these days.

There're lots of people around using their phones on Verizon "as intended", and it seems that after the APN problems were ironed out, there've been very few complaints.

TL;DR: yes, should be plug&play, you may have to change some easily-changed settings.
[Motorola Droid 4] ahri620:
Okay, thanks so much for your help :)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esqueue:
Every single time I enter my vehicle and my phone syncs with my radio, I get an annoying smart card notification that tells me that I can have the phone auto open an app. How the hell do I disable this? There isn't an "I already F**king know" option. The only way is to let it auto open a set program.

Anyway to stop this?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seth28:
Unhappy LG G4 experience

Unfortunately there is no way uninstall or to stop smart notifications.

Go to settings >General >Apps>All>Smart Notice. You'll that you can't delete the app and that you can't even disable it's notifications. The only options that you have are to Force Stop or to clear the Cache which does nothing to solve the problem.

I am going to experiment with some notification blockers that I found in the play store. Unfortunately this means that there will be another app constantly running and slowing down the phone.

There are even (what should be) non native apps that they don't allow you to uninstall. You're stuck with Facebook and a bunch of others. This is absolutely unnecessary. The fact that these things are forced on you and the that the phone seems generally less customizable than my last phone, a Galaxy S3 is turning me off from the phone. It also has an intermittent glitch where the touchscreen won't recognize input.

I bought the phone because of the removable battery and SD card slot. If LG doesn't do something quickly to solve these problems I'm going to bite the bullet and return this for a Galaxy S6. Not having the removable battery and SD card option would really suck but I need a phone that works.

Good luck. Hopefully one of these blocker apps will work.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KingFatty:
What smart card notification is being generated? Are you talking about the Smart Settings - Accessory - When connected to Bluetooth?

Or are you talking about something in Google Now, or maybe something else?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sfkn2:
Smart Settings- > click on the 3 dots -> Settings -> Notification box. Uncheck it.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esqueue:
I'm talking about Smart Settings - Accessory - When connected to bluetooth. It asks me if I want to own a specific program every single time I get inside of my car. There needs to be a "Don't ask me this again" selector.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] esqueue:
I that was already done but I still get the smart card notification.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sfkn2:
Take a screen shot of when the phone's actually giving you the message.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3tterthanhim:
This is a bit late, but you need to change the notification in the smart notice/weather widget's settings. Took me forever to figure that out. I hated the "listening to solitaire with headphones, would you like to open solitaire when you plug in headphones?"
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SPKerG:
B3tterthanhim, you are better than everyone else on here.

This was prob the #1 most frustrating thing with my original G4 (except for possibly the "quick" charger that wouldn't stay plugged into the phone.) Just got my replacement and they started rearing their ugly card-heads again.

Can't believe the solution was this simple-never even noticed that there was a settings button on the widget, and it's still a mystery as to why this isn't in any of the actual system settings (oh, of course, cuz that would actually make sense).

I could literally kiss you right now.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] obxftbll1:
I have an old GS4 lying around that I'm going to give to my younger sister to use as her first smartphone. When I used the phone, I was constantly trying out new ROMs and such. She isn't going to need any of that. I'm looking to return the phone to 100% stock (no root, able to take OTAs, etc.) before giving it to her. The phone is currently running Android 4.4.2 on NC5 thanks to Surge1223's guide along with stock recovery. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] XxD34THxX:
The only way to disable OTA's is with root. You could just go to OC1, but there is no going back... Or put Hyperdrive ROM(looks like nc5/s5), and uninstall safestrap, and put a lock on SuperSU so she can't mess with anything.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rp1226:

[General Questions and Answers] CVAngelo:
It's pretty easy to root ANY device (MTK). Just flash a custom recovery using SP Flash Tool. Then install any SperSu zip on the SD card while in recovery. Done!

The prerequisites of course are: 1) you need to know how to use SPFT; 2) you have to go get the SuperSu zip (just google it, search on XDA, or go to the Chainfire website); 3) you've installed the proper drivers for your device and in particular, the MTK USB Vcom Preloader driver.

So I'm noticing I get home redraws after a day or two of use without restarting. When I freshly boot my phone, I have about 1 gb of free RAM and after a day or so, it'll drop to around 600 mb. I'm rooted and installed the memory leak fix for xposed but it doesn't seem to be working. Any suggestions?

Thanks.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Choristav:
The memory leak fix is only for when you turn off the screen. There are a bunch of other memory leaks in android 5.0.x and even 5.1. The only way to get rid of them is to update to android 5.1.1 (and later?).
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MilanStojkovic:
Different rom (debloated) , custom kernel, disabling unnecessary Google play services via MyAndroidTools. All can help. As I heard, screen off memory leak is not an issue with g2 lp, but there are some other leaks, yes.

The best ram management I had was with dorimanx kernel (currently using it, 2.9 for vs980) on stock lp rom (xdabbeb's 3.1.0). It has some tweaks that help fix some of the memory leaks found in 5.0.2. If you are on STOCK g2 rom (not ported) I suggest you to try it for yourself. It seems to me like it makes a difference and it can be set as an scheduled event so you don't have to clean ram, cache and whatnot manually. Check the screenshot for the options via dorimanx stweaks app that comes with the kernel

D620r rooting issue

So I've followed the steps but it doesn't seem to budge.

Here is what I do exactly, and tell me if I do something wrong.

1. I install the kingroot thingie, and root with it. It instals KingUser and something written in Chinese/Japanese/Korean (can't differentiate between those).

2. I install the SuperSu from playstore (did try with the one in MRW folder as well, didn't do anything different).

3. I attempt to install binaries but it fails (tried rebooting, still the same)

4. Using ES File Explorer I copy the MRW folder to the internal storage.

5. I am installing the Terminal Emulator on play store.

6. Then I'm opening the terminal emulator, type in "Su" (without the ") and hit enter and as a response I get "/system/bin/sh: Su: not found

7. Then for the sake of it I try inputting "sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh

8. As a response I get "mount: operation not permitted java.lang.SecurityException: Permission Denial: killBackgroundProcesses() from pid=10412, uid=10117 requires android.permission.KILL_BACKGROUND PROCESSES" and it follows by several lines of code and that is that.

After that KingRoot, KingUser and the Chinese/Japanese/Korean thingie are still there, SuperSu still can't install binaries and root support is crappy at best. Some things work but most don't since the permissions are managed by KingUser which is really crappy.

Any idea why the thingie won't work?

I have a LG G2 Mini, with Lollipop 5.0.2 bought from T-Mobile, updated it to Lollipop myself.

When I had it on KitKat I had proper root managed by SuperSu.
[LG G2 Mini] nlooooo:
Try everything from the begining, install Kingroot and without installing SuperSU from market execute root.sh from terminal (with 'su' previously).
