[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sek0n:
I've been having a problem tethering my phone to my FireTV stick. It connects fine, and has a good signal, but the speed is erratic and maxes out around 100Kb/s. Does anyone have a FTV that they've been able to tether to with no problems? It connects fine, and goes full speed on my home wifi.

There's no 2.4ghz congestion here, so it's not that, but I'm thinking maybe it's the actual 2.4ghz band the phone is broadcasting. The M preview lets you select 5ghz, and I'm wondering if that would fix it. I just don't really want to use M and lose xposed. :(

Chromecast gets full speed when tethered, so I know the AP is working.

Just curious if anyone has had this issue, or has any ideas. TIA

(FTV forums/amazon/etc. have been unhelpful.)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sek0n:
Just wanted to update. I eventually got my Nexus 6 to multiboot with Android M preview, and tried it. With regular 2.4ghz I get the same issue, but when I switched to the 5ghz band, it worked perfectly.

I have no interference on any bands here, or anything that would cause it outside of the phone. So it's something to do with 2.4ghz, or the N6 specifically.

Just glad I got it working.
[Verizon LG G3] Rumblur:
hi all,

Just got in a G3, got it rooted with the One Click (5.0.1 Lollipop). And then Verizon wants to drop an update? Won't work! (and so I see several others have asked as well before me) So I tried the SU "unroot & cleanup" thinking it would unroot enough to take the update but nope, didn't work either. I'm stuck! So here's my question:

1 - if I do a full reset on the phone, will it take the update then?

2 - I do not want to flash ROM's and all that, this is my daily driver. ALL I want is the update and then I'll root it when or if possible. IF I can't get back to a happy partition or whatever Verizon wants to take the update, I'll just stick with what's here now and go back to rooting it.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
[Verizon LG G3] NBreunig3:
You have to return to stock using the TOT or KDZ method.
[Verizon LG G3] Rumblur:
Forgive my complete and utter stupidity but could you elaborate on those methods? Being my workbench (aka, my lap) wreaks of laziness and failure, let's go with the easiest and/or most fool proof :)

EDIT : I googled it (I know...) and see there's a "B" KDZ file, dated 7-15-15, Would it be possible to load that file and it having the update already in place? (just curious about the process, vs going back to the older rom and then taking the VZ OTA)
[Verizon LG G3] salvabigboy:
Hey!!! Connect your phone to the computer and download Verizon update assistant!!! I was in the exact same situation as you!!!
[Verizon LG G3] Rumblur:
Thanks, I will do that. I tried it before unrooting, no joy.
[Verizon LG G3] salvabigboy:
Hahahaha well it should prompt you to download it after connecting your phone to your computer. after you finish installing and running the program, just follow the instructions on the screen and you should be fine! Be warned, it will take a VERY long time! After all that, you'll be fully unrooted and have the latest update, but this will also a up everything you had on your phone! It'll be like you just bought the phone
[Verizon LG G3] Rumblur:
So just to verify I'm reading you correctly... you unrooted via SU unroot after having been rooted on 5.0.1, then ran the VZ Updater and all was well? Because I was rooted and ran the updater, it did take FOREVER (1.6GB!) then it errored out when I tried to run it. But I have no yet tried since unrooting.
[Verizon LG G3] salvabigboy:
That's strange. Well what I did exactly was try to unroot it using the SU method as you explained, then when that didn't work I decided to connect it to VZ updater and from there it finally updated my phone and I was unrooted as well
[Verizon LG G3] Rumblur:
EDIT : Why is there not a delete button, I posted twice by accident
[Verizon LG G3] Rumblur:
It took the update via USB / VZ Updater. Were you able to get root back? If so, how?
[Verizon LG G3] salvabigboy:
That's good to hear! And no I did not, it took me a while to figure out how to unroot it. If I root now, im not sure how I'll be able to unroot again
[Verizon LG G3] Rumblur:
Thanks, but I gotta have root... I can't stand ads! Other than that I never do anything with root, but I have to have the adblocker and get rid of bloatware. Thanks for your help!
[Verizon LG G3] salvabigboy:
Yeah I understand! Once I find a way to unroot, I'll root my phone as well! Good luck!
[Verizon LG G3] Rumblur:
by "unroot" I assume you mean your "software" shows "modified" and you can't use the root script because of that? Have you tried any root methods?
[Verizon LG G3] Rumblur:
Hope you don't mind me quoting you on this, you seem well versed in this process. As I stated above, I did manage to get the 24B update in, but unable to root. After reading all I could find, it seems the ONLY option I have to get root again, is to use the LG Flash Tool to load the 24B KDZ file, which will wipe the phone out to stock (but on 24B ROM). Then the software won't say "modified" and the phone will then take root via the "newest method script". Does that sound right?

If I could ask for one more piece of advice, are there any pitfalls to watch out for in using the LG Flashtool and 24B KDZ file? If none, after doing so the phone will be 'factory reset' and needing to add my google info etc? I saw where it won't delete personal files, but that really doesn't matter to me. My #1 goal is to have the 24B with root.

Thank you all for all your help!
[Verizon LG G3] salvabigboy:
Yes that's what I mean lol. Sorry for not being clear and no I haven't found any ways as of yet :/
[Verizon LG G3] NBreunig3:
Yes. KDZ to 24B and use my one click script to root.
[Verizon LG G3] Rumblur:
Im on a 32bit PC, I can get access to a 64bit sometime this week if need be. I found, and lost and now can not find the KDZ file for 24b. Also, what software should I use to do the KDZ imaging? I looked on your Tool page, but can't find a download link for the app itself, nothing I mouse over lights up? I appreciate your patience in this, I've not done this deep stuff since the Optimus G, so I'm versed in the procedures just not on the bleeding edge (but that's where the fun is right? :) )

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Distaplia:
Every since I "upgraded" to lollipop, my battery is acting very strange. When the phone gets to about 30% it will shut itself off, then when I charge it, it will show 0%.

Today the phone shut down when it was at around 53%, and wouldn't turn on. I charged it a coupe of hours, it went to to about 70%, then at some point I rebooted the phone, and it shows 23% (See attached screenshot).

I tried doing a factory reset (through the phone, not through PC companion), it didn't help.

My phone is not rooted. Is there anything I can do?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankifol:

I'm having the same problems as you are. Everything was ok before updating to .283. Now my battery goes even from 90 to zero when doing something like browsing the web or using the facebook app. I'm waiting for a new battery, but now that I saw your post I'm beginning to doubt that the battery is the problem and maybe its a software issue.

Notice in the picture that my wifi is always on, but it was off the entire day. Could that be the problem?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Distaplia:
Same here, it shows the wifi as always on, but I have it turned off during the day. So I'm guessing a software issue.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demon148:
From what I was reading I thought the 283 update helped with the battery drain? I am thinking of jumping back to KitKat for the time being as ealier today I was out, phone on full charge, got to the town I needed to be in, battery was on 60% from light usage, then when I went to use google maps to see where I needed to go phone died, tried turning it back on, got it passed my sim lock and then it died again, later on that day when I was finished at appointment, I tried turning it on and it worked, but reduced to 15%. Also I noticed that when the phone was locked, I could feel the battery heating up itself, in my pocket.

Annoying thing was when I got home I charged it and I tried using it for a few seconds and then dropped back to 0. It must be a problem with Xperias only, because I know of no-one else on Lollipop that has a battery drain like this.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icet925:
I feel your pain. I'm having the same issues.

I'm not sure if it's a hardware issue or what...

I notice that it shuts down sometimes when I try to move apps to sd.

Whenever I fully charge the phone and use it down to around 70%, it will drop to 1% if I try to restart the phone.

Sometime it will drop to 1% without notice. It will need to charge up a bit to make it work again.

Also, when I restart the phone, it will tell me sd damaged even though it is working fine. I tried formatting it already.

When I hard reset it using power button and volume up, it will recognize the previous charge level sometimes.

It's just really strange.

I feel like there is two different charge level the phone remember.

Attached is what my battery graph looks like.

It dropped to zero when I tried to restart it.

And then I did a hard reset, it went back up to 80%.

I tried moving apps to sd then it dropped to zero.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demon148:
Right I need some advice as I am having a dilemma, other than the battery is there anything else it could be? Reasoning I am asking and although I am dubious about what was said, I need to ask. I handed my phone into a local place to get the battery replaced, and after close to two weeks, I went and asked how much longer they think they would take to sort it out, they spoke in their own language for a few mins and then came to me and said they could not sort it and told me they replaced the battery and the same thing still happened, they also said they did some testing with the phone. My phone is encrypted and requires a pin to login, can they still test the phone without this? Also as I said at the beginning, is it definitely the battery or could it be something else? I have bought my own battery and I am going to test it myself and if it works, although I will not get my money back that I had to pay I will go and complain.

Hello,

this is what the problem is, the power button doesnt bring it back to life. i do a soft reset, it says press zero to clear, i do that it doesnt work. then i do a hard re-set and it shows 'serial', i plug in the usb and it changes to USB (think that's what is called the boot loader'.

now i ran teh exec official firmware, it managed to update it onces but after that i did a soft reset and it didnt come to life. i repeated that process again but this time the firmware didnt even manage to communicate with the device as it said unknown usb device. and then i got an error 101, connection error

I have tried to update my LG D620r to android lollypop, but whenever I try to do it over the phone it downloads the update and when it tries to install it, gets error 0x1111002.

Then I tried to update with the LG PC suite and the LG Mobile support tool, both times the phone tried to restart and displayed "Secure Booting Error! Cause: boot certification verify" followed by a purple screen that says "DBI apps Watchdog reset"

Besides that the phone runs fine with kitkat 4.4.2. I have tried factory reset 4 times, didn't help. The phone isn't rooted, though I have tried to root it using "towelroot", but it said the phone doesn't support it so I didn't try anymore.

Hey everyone , recently when the batery reached 30 - 20 precents the phone shuts down .

meaning the battery just dropping to zero precent.

i dont certain if its a Rom issue it started hapening when i was on BrokenPOP and it also happening on Liberty sense .

what do u thinks guys ? need to replace the battery to a new one?

:confused:
[HTC One S] JavierG123:
i think is a battery problem
[HTC One S] Rapier:
I'm on Broken and had phone reaching 10 or 8% battery often. So I can't say it's a ROM fault especially as you have this on Liberty as well. Battery status got wiped after a full charge so it could be that you won't face this issue after several charging cycles

Waht's the age of your battery. Mine was 2 years old, and dropped to 0 from around 20 % in less than 2 minutes.

Hello every one! I'm new in this site and i don't speak english very well, so please if i make mistakes, don't blame me :p

So, i will explain you what is my problem :

Two days ago, I played with my GALAXY S5 G900F (android 5.0 kitkat XEf) and my battery was 44% i think. But when it comes to 43%, it shuts down instantly and reboots, but it freezes on samsung logo. I couldn't boot it anymore. So what I do is pull out my battery during 10 minutes and retry. Fortunately, it boots normally. But it's just for 15 minutes when someone call me and the same problem reappears.

To try to fix it, i have already :

- Pull out and pull in battery many times

- Flash the ROM with stock rom (android 5.0 lollipop XEO)

- Try to install a custom rom : SIXPERIENCE, but it freezes on the installation

- Downgrade from lollipop to kitkat (BTU i think)

I don't know if is an hardware or software problem.

Thanks for the answer !

The Samsung Galaxy S6 has a weather widget that works great, however it has an unnecessary clock included in the widget, with no alternative that doesn't include the clock. Importantly, the stock weather widget has a refresh "button" on the bottom right of the widget, which allows the temperature to be updated without having to open the AccuWeather app (or the default stock rendition of it).

I have tried other weather widgets, such as Beautiful Widgets, HD Widgets, and AccuWeather App. However, none have the ability to refresh without opening the app. I saw http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1601134, but the apps mentioned have issues according to the latest reviews, perhaps because they are no longer being developed

Can someone suggest a weather widget that:

Allows refreshing of the temperature/weather by tapping somewhere on the widget

Takes no more than a 2x1 area
