[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Dilyan:
I just got myself a second hand MDA on T-Mobile, and I'm on flext web'n'walk price plan. I have a few problems with it and I hope I can get some answers :)

I got preinstalled pocket MSN that works fine on GPRS. However, I use mostly Yahoo Messanger and ICQ and they would only work at home, where I have the BT Total Broadband (with the wireless hub). Outside the house they would not connect. I use 2 messengers to go online, one is Agile Messenger, and the other is IM+. Both work fine on WiFi as I said, but would not connect via GPRS.

Does anyone here use that phone and the messengers to help me out here? I had the K800i and it worked fine with the Agile Messenger, now I feel lost

PS: The Internet Explorer works fine on it, so it can connect via GPRS, its just none of the messengers that I've got.

Any advice would be apreciated. Thanks.

PS2: Any ideas for other messengers that support Yahoo and ICQ?

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] esny23:
Dont use OZ, EVER. It dosnt use GPRS to send messages, it uses text messeges and its crazy slow. If you want your instant messengers to work make sure your GPRS connection is already alive and connected before signing in. The messengers wont start a internet connetion but will use the active ones.

[Motorola Droid 4] grhopper:
I was trying to upgrade safestrap from 3.73 to 3.75 so that I could install CM12. I did not remove 3.73 before installing 3.75, causing major boot problems. I was able to boot into Fastboot, and using the DROID 4 Utility XT894 Jellybean, I flashed the official jellybean firmware. Now my phone will get as far as the Droid Eye logo boot animation, but will not finish the boot. Are there any other utilities or methods that I can try to get the phone back up and running? I have access to another Droid 4, so if there's a way to copy the ROM from it to mine with adb, or some other method, I'd be open to that. Any help would be appreciated.
[Motorola Droid 4] Septfox:
No idea about that utility. Without Safestrap or a working O/S, ADB is only available from stock recovery (I think), and stock recovery is almost completely useless on this phone.

If you still had access to SS, then you could restore a backup made on another phone, but in stock form the phone has no way to make/restore system backups.

At a guess, the DROID 4 Utility flashes one of the two newest XMLs depending on whether you want to keep data or not. If you chose 2, it could be that the boot process is getting hung up on something you have installed. Since you're using stock, did you try safe mode?

Failing that, or if you already chose a complete wipe in the Droid 4 Utility and got stuck anyway...for each of the several times I've managed to brick my phone, I've always used RSDLite and manually flashed the appropriate XML via Fastboot, have never had any problems.

RSDLite: http://rsdlite.com/rsd-lite-download/

Newest stock JB 4.1.2 XML (VRZ_XT894_9.8.2O-72_VZW-18-8_CFC.xml.zip): via Mega (probably fastest, in Firmwares), Motofirmware or AFH, links courtesy of [MENTION=4267571]sd_shadow[/MENTION]'s big document of Droid 4 stuff

Note that the above XML will wipe data and internal storage (SD card is unaffected). If you need to keep those, use cdma_maserati_9.8.2O-72_VZW-18-2_1ff.xml.zip instead (also in the Mega Firmwares folder, or get other links from the above document), it should keep everything. Probably. I hope you made a backup before trying to upgrade SS : \

Connect your phone via USB, get into Fastboot

Start up RSDLite

Click the "..." next to the Filename box, select the XML zip

Click "Decompress And Start Flashing"

Give it a while to complete

Hopefully, bootable ROM. Note that RSDLite will probably get "stuck" on the last reboot, waiting for the phone; it's safe to close once the flash is completely complete (e.g. you're at the boot animation)

I'd imagine that the Droid 4 Utility does much the same as RSDLite, just in a somewhat more automated fashion, but it never hurts to try something slightly different.
[Motorola Droid 4] sd_shadow:
RSD Lite is more complex than the utility, slightly different methods, if one failed try the other.

Stock recovery is really only good for factory reset and wiping cache, if you haven't already done so, wipe them now.

I was able to get it up and running with the Mfastboot method:

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manyoo:
Hi, i'm actually wondering about the same thing. Have ordered the z3+ and it will arrive in about 1week or 2. If i remember correctly, there was an app on can buy at playstore which basically does the same, i guess i'll just try it out when i get the phone, and return the phone if the app fails.

[Shield Q&A] webdoctors:
I'm trying to access my Shield storage over the network.

I tried using ftp server tools but none of them worked, including es file explorer. They would connect but fail to get me a directory listing. I got ssh sftp server to work, but I can't read any external drives.

I can read the internal Shield drive (the 16 GBs). But I have external drives connected over USB that I want to access. It looks like there is a permission problem. When I change to access the external drives, I can see them in the directory listing but clicking on them and traversing them I get an error. I'd probably have to set it up so the ssh user has root access, but than I'd need to root my device.

My local apps like Kodi can see and access the external drive, its only my sftp server user that cannot.

Is there a simple way to access external storage remotely?
[Shield Q&A] envidia:
I have the same issue. Did you finally find a solution?

Thanks.
[Shield Q&A] dvallejo:
Sam question here, anyone find a solution to this? Thanks!
[Shield Q&A] webdoctors:
I'm guessing either Google needs to fix this in their next release, or we'd have to root the box so we can set the permissions for the ftp server to an elevated level.
[Shield Q&A] snoopac19:
Hi all. Looks like I'm 3+ years late to this conversation :). Not sure if I should have created a new thread instead?

But I got a shield recently, and I have a similar (not same) issue. I *can* access the external drive with sftp (using installed ssh server that I can't find in google play store any more).

However, access to the drive is read-only. I can't upload anything, or delete anything, etc. Through that sftp, I have full access to the internal 16gb drive.

Initially, ES File Explorer also couldnt write to the external drive either. I was able to 'unlock' it to make it work, using these instructions:

https://forums.geforce.com/default/...-es-explorer-fail-error/post/4782494/#4782494

Anyone know how to make that same popup to unlock the ssh server's write access to the drive? Or to unlock write permission to the drive in general, system-wide?

I'm not rooted or anything by the way.

I suppose, alternatively, I can turn on some FTP server capabilities within ES on the shield?

I'm trying to root my S5 Active. It's never been rooted before and I've never rooted a phone before besides a simple one touch with towelroot on an old spare phone. It's updated to Android 5.0 with the 3.4.0 Kernel. Any help with simple instructions would be great. I'm new to rooting but I'm good with computers so if whatever I need to do is explained I'll be good. Thanks.

S-5 Active SM-G870A phone and root issue

I hope this is the correct spot for this post.

I have a Galaxy S5 Active SM-G870A that was rooted when using 4.2.2. When it was still rooted I did an update to 4.4.4 (shows G870AUCU1AOA2) which took away the root status and now shows as a "Custom ROM" when booting. I cannot get to Lollipop update because the update fails, I think due to the Custom ROOM status. I wanted to re-root the phone to use an app to reset the custom ROM issue but cannot find a CF-Auto Root file for the AT&T Active. I was going to try flashing it with Odin using the NE4 kernel to root it with towel root, but I can't find the original kernel to download to flash it back to after I root it. When I originally rooted the phone I had XP on my home PC, after updating my PC I no longer have the information saved that I used to root it the first time. I know it was with Odin, but don't remember how and have been doing periodic internet searches to no avail.

This has been going on for quite a while now and is driving me crazy because I cannot root the phone or update it in it's current condition. Can someone help me? Thanks so much for your time.

[AT&T HTC One (M7)] zawuebo711:
Hi,

first of all thanks to everyone that works here, I have been visiting this forums for about 3 years.

I currently have a 5.0.2 with htc sense 6.0

Kernel version 3.4.10-gd7bdf6a and@AABM #1 SMP PREEMPT (this is what it read after attempting root)

To root it, I installed drivers (HTC Sync manager, mini-SDK tools, java), unlocked bootloader as instructed on htcdev.com/bootloader, went to fast boot, installed recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.6-m7ul.img, moved UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94.zip to my sdcard, and went on recovery to install this zip hoping it would be rooted. After all this I noticed Titanium Backup pro didn't have access to root, downloaded Root Checker Basic by joeykrim and in fact it said "Sorry! Root access is not properly installed on this device." Then I went on my apps drawer and noticed that strangely SuperSU is installed, but when I opened it it reads "There is no SU binary installed, and SuperSU cannot install it. This is a problem!".

After all that I tried downloading Superuser instead Superuser-3.1.3_superuserdownload.com.rar, but my device on recovery couldn't even see the RAR file, meaning on recovery that file didn't even show, so I tried extracting files to a folder of the same name and then compressing it again as a zip file. It could read fine and I attempted installing it again on recovery CWM but the installation started and aborted instantly. So I tried reinstalling SuperSU again, after deleting all cache/data/system/delvik, but again same problem. SuperSU is installed, but the same problem message pops up, and Root Checker still reads the device isn't rooted properly.

Strangely, Busybox installer says my device is rooted but after tapping install it said it failed. Root Check by JRummy Apps says device is rooted too.

Thanks in advance, let me know what other questions you have.

Additional info,

Root Check details reads

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gordak985:
Using the same ROM, working great. You need to find gapps that will work for you, it just needs to be for same android version, and in my case the smaller gapps are, they work better. Try to find "gapps-L-4-21-15.zip" they are working for me.

May your /system partition is totally full. Seems to be unlikely, but if nothing helps, formatting /system is worth a try. Or simply check out the free space of the /system partition at your file manager. I recommend to use pico gapps.

I just recently upgraded to the Droid Turbo from my M8 (I also own a Moto X 2014 but i cracked the screen the day before i upgraded, hence the update) hated the M8, dont like sense at all but loved the android 5 on both but was unhappy with cameras. now i really like the look and feel of the turbo, i got the newer ones silver/gray ballistic nylon with blue and the feeling is just awesome. But, I'm wondering if i may have made a mistake. i know the turbo was still running 4.4 before i got it. and i firmly believe it will scream when they update it to 5.1 but should i wait and see or get Moto x fixed im looking for suggestions.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] JasonJoel:
I don't find 5.1 noticeably faster on any of my other devices, but each to their own.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Martingitdave:
The software will change. Though, realistically, all the features are the same. But, you can't "update" the hardware and battery. Stick with what you have. In a few weeks, you'll have your cake and can eat it too.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] maxpower7:
Funny. I'm actually thinking about going back to the M8 because I really like Sense and the phone's flashability.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] windoge89:
To be honest with the hopeless update time of the turbo I think you should switch back. Just know that the camera on the M8 is much worse than the turbo
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] maxpower7:
I owned the M8 for several months and had no issues with the camera other than the lack of OIS.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] windoge89:
I'm not talking out of experience, I'm talking about what a lot of reviewers have said.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] maxpower7:
I think a lot of reviewers had their judgment clouded by the fact that it's only 4mp. The image quality is perfectly good in a lot of different lighting conditions.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] windoge89:
Perhaps. Also, does the Turbo's front camera lag in low light for you?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] maxpower7:
Yeah, but I rarely ever use the front camera, so that's not a big deal. My biggest gripe with the Turbo's camera is the horrible shutter lag of the main camera. It's by far the slowest camera I've used on a smartphone in the last few years.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] windoge89:
Quite true. It seems like the newest camera update improved it slightly, but it's still atrocious.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] maxpower7:
It's inexcusable on such a high-end phone.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] windoge89:
Perhaps the ever elusive lollipop will fix it. This is, if it doesn't get dropped. I'm honestly feeling pessimistic about the whole thing. It uses the same sensor as the Z3,but Motorola's crime against photography image processing mucks it up. Rather disappointing.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] maxpower7:
Yeah, I'm hoping it improves with Lollipop, whenever the hell that ends up happening. You're right about their image processing - there's a TON of artificial oversharpening that happens in videos especially. I'm also not a fan of Moto's camera app, whereas HTC's app is great and keeps improving.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] windoge89:
Considering it's still in Motorola's labs, then I wont expect to see it until July. Meanwhile I can use my sad wannabe-lollipop nova launcher and shake my head in disappointment
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RichSPK:
I'd wait. Even if you end up wanting to switch, the Moto X 2015 edition is coming out, so it's a little premature, I think, to switch to last year's X.
