[Samsung Galaxy Core.] Azhero:
After Core Prime and other Mid-range devices got an Official Lollipop Update (5.0.2), there comes a Final Phase. .In the previous phase, Core 2 update status was "pending", now it changed to "approved" in the Final Phase. Means our device is already confirmed to get an Android 5.0 update. . I don't know if this is really true. .But I hope Android 5.0 will come to our device .

BTW, what does "final phase" mean?, it means, the last mid-range devices to get Android 5.0 update?, what do you think guys?

Some news:

As far as I know, Galaxy Grand Prime Value Edition SM-G531H (3G model) will be launched soon with Android 5.0.2 out of the box. It has SC8830 spreadtrum chipset which is similar to our device SM-G355H. It has 1GB of ram. .I'm wondering if Samsung use SM-G531H firmware as a base ROM for updating Core 2 to Android Lollipop, because I guess that there are only small changes of SM-G531H' rom to make it running on Core 2 models. .
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] FedericoPeranzi:
Yes, i've already read it, I Hope soon we have Lollipop on out device, it will be great
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] om.shiva:
I hope Samsung releases it in month or two... After all its a major update...:)
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] FedericoPeranzi:
[MENTION=5460630]Azhero[/MENTION] [MENTION=6415801]om.shiva[/MENTION] For me it's an official news, and i think soon we have lollipop on GC2 i didn't think that page will post some fake info. What do you think?
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] om.shiva:
Looking at page I think it's true news...I would've tried to(still learning) build recovery and 5.1 for our devices instead of waiting for official...but source is huge in size....
[Samsung Galaxy Core.] Murukesh Ponnambalam:
Is This Info Really True????

Are You Guys sure that Samsung Galaxy Core 2 Devices Will Get Official Lollipop Update From Samsung??

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OneForAllM9:
Hi all,

I know new users can be annoying, I'll try not to be. I've searched but haven't found anything relevant to a non-rooted, stock phone so here goes. I bought an M9 when they came out, has been great so far, don't care about the camera as it's fine and I don't buy phones for cameras, I buy cameras for that strangely. Either way I have tried to update to the OTA 1.40.841.8 software but it keeps failing. It downloads the half gig package fine, then reboots, then comes up with the installing bar and every time it gets to roughly 25% it fails and goes to the System Recovery screen saying something about "Package expects build fingerprint of ******* or *******; this device has ****different one*** then it says; Error in @/cache/recovery/block.map (Status 7) - Installation aborted.

Is anyone able to assist? This phone is 100% stock, no modding. Also the HTC website says you can update via sync manager so I tried that as a second choice and it doesn't prompt me about a software update.

Any assistance is appreciated.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] K00li79:
Welcome! ?

If it really is all stock it should take the ota perfect...

My advice is to take it to a htc service center and let them update your phone.

Usually only having non stock system or something like that would cause ota to fail.

Since this is not the case....take it to htc. :)
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OneForAllM9:
Yeah i've updated it before with no issue, and i updated my old M7 heaps of times, never had one issue, pretty annoying.
[Android General] Zeal415:
Hey,

So its been like 3-4 years since i been big into putting roms onto phones and rooting and such. I just lost my old phone.. fell outta my pocket while riding my motorcycle on the interstate.... Just bought this LG Leon. Its running 5.0.1, and I know I can root in via King, not concerned about the security issues tbh. What I am concerned about is wether or not anyone was able to install Cyanogenmod 12.1 on the phone yet... I can't find anything on it, which can't say as im surprised it being a $100 phone from metro pcs. What I have found is that people were able to root it.

I really want to put Cyanogenmod on it cuz all of the bloat ware on this phone is driving me nuts.... like holy ****, why release a phone thats gonna be slow with all your **** no 1 uses on it.. end rant.

Also anyone figure out a way to make lolipop revert the windows/tabs/recently opened menu from cards to tiles?
[Android General] A-Rob:
There was a CM12.1 ROM available on another forum but the thread was closed due to some complaints from impatient people who weren't getting their free updates as fast as they felt entitled to. I've still got it running on my Leon. Except for a couple of bugs it's been stable for me. The only real issues are that GPS can force a reboot unless permissions are set a certain way and the charging percentage won't report correctly. I'm keeping it because the phone runs much smoother with CM12. I hope the developer doesn't totally abandon it because of some ungrateful people.
[Android General] BlindJesture70:
I am also running the unofficial cm12,on my Leon, and I plan on keeping it, I hope that the Lept team continues to work on cm for the Leon. I have a question about GPS causing reboots unless permissions are right. Could you explain what you changed to prevent reboots? Thank you.
[Android General] A-Rob:
Set Privacy Guard to 'always ask' for any location based app. Alternatively, you can set GPS to battery saver mode. It makes no sense, but battery saver mode seems to keep the GPS antenna on, without it showing as being on, but it has to be, because my Maps app is dead on accurate when it shouldn't be. The GPS Test app doesn't recognize it as being on but it pinpoints my location, even when there's no WiFi location anywhere around (for rough location). This had not caused a restart, which does happen in High Accuracy mode.
[Android General] BlindJesture70:
Thanks man

I tried to update to lollipop for my T805Y. Odin failed half way through... no sure why. So I thought I will revert back to 4.4.2, but now that failed too while using Odin. Anyone with any ideas?

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wadamean:
Hello everyone I just got the lg g4 coming from the droid turbo what a great change it was. Worth it in every way except battery life. Thing is I wanted to see if it is worth rooting? Anyone have been for a bit and willing to share any improvements? What method is best to root and if so a way to unroot as well for future reasons? Thanks so much for your help.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stl-soldier:
Root has been achieved, but isn't available yet. Gotta wait.

I get great battery life. It gets better after a few charge cycles.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] centran:
Even when root comes out I would wait a bit if you have a leased plan. I would not be surprised if some of the carriers start putting in a phone home that will immediately inform them when you root and then they send you a bill for the full amount of the phone right away.

A lot of these carriers switched to this leased phone way of doing business and people need to realize you don't own your phone! The carrier owns it.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] player911:
Root is always a must for me. I like root explorer and Data Sync and Titanium backup.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bootup:
whut?!
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] centran:
Not saying they did anything like that for this phone... although with the carrier IQ on some of the carriers who knows! I am just saying this is something to look out for in the future.

Listen... this whole leased phone thing that most of the carriers are trying is a fairly new concept. If you lease you do not own your phone. PERIOD. It isn't yours. The carrier technically owns the phone till you choose to pay it off(if they allow that and most do). What is to say that they won't want to detect if you root your phone. If they can tell you did then what? Since it isn't technically your phone what will they do? Will they care? Well, I'm sure they will see it that all those people can now tether without paying an addon charge and they are losing X amount in money since they are getting something for free. You or any other logical person may not see it as them losing money but that is not how companies view things.

Again, not saying this is something that will popup with the LG G4 and surprise everyone. I'm just saying watch out. There is a reason they won't unlock any of the US carrier bootloaders.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wadamean:
I doubt that carriers will be implementing that technique of being notifed right away when the phone gets rooted. If they do then one can sue or take to court because they are invading privacy.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoff5093:
You also don't own your phone with the subsidized model either, until you finish your 2 year contract or pay your ETF

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MicroMod777:
Thats only for their unlock system that they've allowed unlocking. Like said before that all T-Mobile phones have always been unlocked from factory. I've owned T-Mobile's LG G2, G3, and L90 and have only needed root to flash twrp. Twrp didn't need to be bumped either.

[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CAG-man:
Pretty sure my AT&T Next plan is a financing plan with 0%APR and not a lease unless the legal documents that come with it are fraudulent papers. In effect the unpaid balance becomes a lien on the device and just like any other financing if you don't pay the financer can claim a collection. In the case of phones we can say I don't want this device anymore pay up an early payoff fee (much like some mortgages) and trade in. This is a 100% ownership plan unless you choose not to make payments or give up the financed device.

As such, and linking the above to the generalised relevant topic, it would be in the lines of the Edward Snowden expose to collect device habit data without our knowledge. Therefore the carrier would have to make data collection known to the purchaser in order to collect data on root. Google collects data on phone usage that nearly every Android user agrees to on device setup.

Most carriers require their sales people to setup the phone. Therefore the first thing I do after a phone purchase at a carrier is factory reset so that I can read and agree to any fine print.

When a root method is published, feel free to root.
[Verizon LG G3] articzap:
When I purchased my G3 used, it already had LiquidSmooth KK.

I have since updated to DirtyUnicorns LP and flashed the 23B and or C modem, honestly cannot remember which it was.

At no point as my GPS ever worked. So now I want to go back to a stock 12B, from my understanding, get a solid GPS lock, then get back up to a new LP rom. I've been trying to read around on exactly how to do this, but not sure I've found the right answers.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Verizon LG G3] HolyAngel:
You may be able to just flash a stock based kk ROM. One of mine for example(https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95857557620393003 skydragon).

Otherwise to go completely stock, you need the lg flashtool, vs985 dll for it, and the 12b kdz file. All of which can be found in the general or q&a forums ^^

Thank you! GPS is now locked in, finally :)
[Samsung Gear S] ILowry282:
So I just got my Gear S today. After pairing it with my S6 Edge, the battery drained by 40 percent in a couple of hours. This means that to use the watch, I'd need to charge my phone 3 times a day. I've also noticed lag on the phone when paired to the watch. Anyone know why this is?
[Samsung Gear S] djc-wi:
Make sure you turn off the pedometer which is on by default. It will drain your battery faster than anything. I leave Bluetooth and WiFi on all the time. When I am away from my phone and connected via WiFi my battery drains faster than when I choose not to connect and use my data plan.
[Samsung Gear S] ILowry282:
How do I turn it off? All I see is pause
[Samsung Gear S] djc-wi:
Pause is basically off. It doesn't reset existing steps so it's called pause rather than off
[Samsung Gear S] jsnali13:
you should also check location settings on your phone if you have the find my device feature on. i think it sets it to high accuracy that really drains my battery. i changed it on the phone to power savings.
[XDA Assist] _jhwright:
HTC One M8 running Cyanogenmod 12.1 5-23 Nightly

My phone restarted the other day (not uncommon.) When it rebooted all my account information was gone (never happened before.)

No big deal, I reentered the information, but since then my SMS and chat hangouts have been split in Hangouts. I have cleared the cache and the data. Uninstalled and reinstalled Hangouts. I even performed a reset and restore. No luck.

Each contact now has 2 conversations, one for SMS and one for chat. If I go into a chat conversation I no longer can touch the green bubble and select SMS. If I go into SMS I can touch the "SMS" button and select between carrier number and Google Voice number. I have tried long pressing the SMS conversation and the chat conversation and the "Merge" button does not appear. If I select UNMERGE from an older conversation (pre restart) it will split out and I can remerge those one thread. But it still will only allow me to use one protocol in each thread.

Any suggestions?

PS - Yes, "Enable Merged Conversations" is checked. I have checked it and unchecked it to no avail.

PPS - Sorry for the cross post.

Do you have this CM ROM version: [ROM][OFFICIAL] CyanogenMod 12.1 Nightlies for the HTC One m8 by invisiblek?

Good luck !
[XDA Assist] BJSerpas:
I have the exact same issue. I've been using the same ROM for months, and it happened so suddenly while I was in the middle of composing a message. I didn't flash anything new or do anything out of the ordinary. I don't think this is an issue specific to any device or to CyanogenMod, but rather another issue specific to the already buggy Hangouts app.

First it only started with one contact. I added a new number for this contact, and the new number had a separate thread, while the old number and Hangouts chat remained in another thread. On this contact's phone, the thread containing my two numbers (SMS and GVoice), as well as Hangouts chat, are all merged into a single thread, so I know this is possible.

To make matters worse, I turned GVoice integration on and off, as well as the option to have SMS messages merged with Hangouts, trying to find a combination that would fix my issue. Now, ALL my previously merged contacts are in separate threads and I can't merge them back (even if I long press both conversations, the merge button doesn't appear).

Ciao a tutti ... ho un problema strano: (non di funzionamento del programma) ma del fatto che quando lo lancio, lo uso tranquillamente poi quando è il momento di chiuderlo mi rimane attivo il task tra i processi (e mi occupa ben 16MB di memoria)... e naturalmente non è possibile chiuderlo...

L'unico modo di "pulirlo" dalla memoria è ahime il soft reset...

I emailed the author with the problem, even after going through Memory/Running Programs and selecting Stop for GPSTuner, memory was not freed up.

Hello all,

So I have been having this issue with my Z3 LTE (D6603) for awhile now, but I am new to the forums so I thought I would ask for a possible solution.

The problem: Everytime I reboot my phone and the system loads up, a voicemail alert pops up. It can't swiped away, and when I click it, it dials my old VM setup(using the phone dialer to listen and delete VM's).

Temporary solution: I somehow managed to find a temp solution by going to the Apps on my phone, and disabling 1 of the 2 "phone" apps. The only one I can disable to make the alert go away is the 2.02MB version app. I am not sure why.

All in all, it's not a big deal. But it is annoying to have to do this anytime I reboot my phone :rolleyes: So any suggestions?

Btw, I use Google voice as my voicemail provider. I've attached screenshots showing the process, so I hope that helps.

Thanks!
