[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Guiyoforward:
Hi everyone, I'm coming back to my Nook HD+ after a while. I followed razholio's recommendation: "I'd recommend M12 snapshot of cm11" with PA's micro GAPPS. Thanks to all involved, BTW.

I was wondering if anyone is using any tweak to this build - I read something about a touchscreen sensitivity issue, others talk about ARP... Something to recommend or should I just stick to the standard install? I would venture into 12.1 but I need this one to be rock solid.

Thanks!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chorba69:
Hello all.

I need some help how to update the z2 to lollipop.

I've read stuff on internet, but I simply can not do it.

The error 2003 is killing me... And I do not know what to do.

A month ago I bought a z2 for my brother and it was/is on kitkat.

Today, I bought a z2 for my father and there was lollipop already installed.

I bought both phones via Ebay.

The phones have the same Model Number.

On the kitkat z2 I cant update via OTA either.

Could you PLEASE tell me what to do?

I have read something, that my bootloader may be unlocked and I have to relock it.

Is that true? And if yes, how can I check if my bootloader is locked?

Thanks in advance!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Radu_Stancu:
Use flashtool to flash a stock FTF image, this way you won`t have to bother with the bootloader, unlocked or not.

If the phone is rooted OTA updates won`t work., it will say it can`t verify. And it`s true that unlocking the bootloader will cause OTA updates to stop working.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brotherhaslip:
I just bought a Note 4 from a pawn shop. I checked the IMEI with as many online free checking services that I could find. After I connected it to wifi, I started getting these pop ups saying that the phone is owned by Rent-A-Center and it needed an unlock code. I did a little searching and I guess this is a fairly new thing as of a few months ago. I was able to return it to the pawn shop and cancel the transaction, so I was lucky, but other people who have had their phones for months are all of a sudden getting these messages and being left with no real recourse.

I know this is part of the risk when buying a used phone, but I wanted to see if anyone knows a work around for this? I saw some people were able to install CM and then had no more problems. Someone else was talking about deleting certain partitions that don't get wiped during a factory reset. So does anyone have some good info on this problem??? And just a warning to anyone buying a used phone, you might want to call Rent-A-Center and ask them if they have anything to do with the IMEI number in question. If they are going to lock out a phone, they should find a way to be listed on the free checking services.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brotherhaslip:
Here is a good thread with some info

Found this thread here on XDA

http://xdaforums.com/android/help/rent-center-locked-galaxy-s5-t3070877

It has some good info about various ways to get around the problem. I just wonder if RAC will eventually blacklist these phones instead of just having a software lock.
[G4 General] Eric618:
After rooting my H810, I was unable to Greenify Facebook, as it was recognized as a system app (preinstalled bloat), and seemed to be a major battery hog. I was also limited on how I could limit its permissions.

I used Titanium Backup to delete that FB app, then reinstalled it from the market. That version was able to be Greenified, and there is more control over permissions. Since then, I have seen a considerable improvement in battery life. I've been unplugged since 6:20 this morning and I'm still at 76% right now at 2:26! I don't know if there was something rogue going on with the FB app behind the scenes, but I see a huge improvement. Far too significant to be a placebo.
[G4 General] Supersanborn:
What permissions did you limit?
[G4 General] Eric618:
Every single one except location. I usually have that turned off on my phone anyway.
[G4 General] davy917:
How do you update permissions?
[G4 General] wadamean:
Then if so get the premium version of greenify which lets you hibernate system apps
[G4 General] REDswapnil:
Apps like facebook and clean master eats up the major system resources and put a heavy load on the ram and processor..this is a proven thing..and not a personal opinion..
[G4 General] RenaKunisaki:
There's Debloater, so you don't even need root to get rid of the bloat. I also noticed a huge improvement in battery life and responsiveness after clearing out a ton of crap!
[G4 General] RedOCtobyr:
I haven't tested this. But I thought I saw someone mention that even if you Debloat an included bloatware app, you can't simply install a replacement (updated version). The phone considers it already installed.

My apologies if a have this wrong. But it sounded like root would be required to replace apps that cannot normally be uninstalled, as was described above.
[G4 General] kyle1867:
Did you freeze the Facebook system app or completely uninstall it?

I'm afraid of getting security errors on boot if a system app is missing
[G4 General] RenaKunisaki:
That may be true. I think Debloater does the same as going to the app in the Apps menu and disabling it. I disabled Facebook that way, and it showed up as blocked in Debloater before I'd ever actually blocked anything. (But Debloater lets you disable apps that the menu doesn't.) I don't use Facebook so I haven't tried to install another version.
[G4 General] Eric618:
I completely uninstalled it with TI, rebooted, then installed it fresh from the market. Then I locked down permissions and Greenified.
[G4 General] elsamuraiguapo:
How do you change the permissions?
[G4 General] Eric618:
I use App Ops by Nowsky. It's available in the Play Store.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Guiyoforward:
Hi everyone, my Relay is about to die and I got a good used one off ebay. I didn't realise it was not unlocked, and so far two services (about $15 each) have failed to find the unlock code for this and tmobile has not responded.

Some people on ebay are selling a remote usb unlock which involves access to my computer trhough the net. I guess they are just running some .exe program. It sounds like a security no no though. Does anyone have this program or can tell me how to unlock my phone? I feel very noob!!

Thanks

In your opinion what would you consider the bes rom to use for WM6. And what are the pros and cons of it?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] eagle 1:
All the current Rom's are good. As others have stated, it really depends on what you use your device for. Do you like a lot of apps pre-loaded with less space or do you like to load your own apps.

Again, it is up to you,....Just try one or two and decide for yourself...then you can write a review of the Rom's you tried...

If one thread was closed,,,this one will also be closed soon...good luck

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jomo25:
Dude, it's like asking "what's the best car?"

You gotta first know what you want and need.

Then you gotta research for the viable options.

Then you gotta ask some targeted questions.

Then you may have to try a couple on.

Asking "which is the best ROM?" is just ignorant. If you can articulate what you are specifically looking for (stable OR fast OR latest updates OR etc.) then maybe you have a chance at someone giving you a meaningful answer.

If there was one ROM that is fastest, most stable, with the latest updates, then there'd only be one ROM.

Start at the Wiki for Hermes. http://wiki.xda-developers.com
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ionutz6:
Very useful comments, all of you, i have to admit... Is this the kind of posts that made you become senior members?

How about quick explanation to the poor guy that there are different opinions and flavours of different ROMs and that nobody can define the best ROM, but he has to try several and choose one? Based on stability, rapidity, features, etc?

Ive been reading this forum for quite a while now, and i see it decading. maybe its because everybody knows everybody and u want to keep it this way, any newcomer is not welcome..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walshieau:
no... because its called reading... its really simple...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ionutz6:
yes, and i agree any new member should start by reading a lot and then post. but as in life, you dont happen to meet only perfect people. and then what do you do? kill/hate/laugh at all the others? or maybe try to tell them smth and make them realize stuff, or just ignore them and do smth useful with your time?

i know it might get frustrating after a while, but there will surely be more like that guy coming this way, so ull get crazy at the end...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wpbear:
I figured I would let you tell the guy so you could be a senior member too......who cares junior or senior members should think before they ask. I think the best no joke response is the guy looking at this from a perspective of buying a car. Oh and ask me what car is best....I will tell you a Yugo.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jomo25:
At least somewhat of a starting point. I'll also say this. That unless you are really willing to invest some time (and frustration) into flashing ROMs, you may want to stick with the official ROMs. One was just released for the Hermes WM6. Please install Olipro 2.10 first before trying to flash. And please don't blame anyone but yourself if you brick your phone.

Oh wait, were you refering to the ice cream or the posts? If it was the ice cream ill start the search LOL, ok thats the extent of the nonsense from this noob have a nice night guys.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walshieau:
yeah i know... its just disappointing when you look at the state of the forum at the moment... there are about 15 to 20 threads on which is the best ROM, 20 to 30 here is the Official Windows mobile 6 blah blah blah <rant> blah blah blah blah </rant>
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] swtaltima:
The funny thing is that as a noob I must say I have enjoyed the trip. I mean with the proper precautions it is fun and addicting flashing continuously in hopes of the "best rom"

And yet ... you ask the same question again?!?!??

So since you asked again .. allow me to respond as i did to your other thread .. because believe it or not ...... it is the correct and only answer for *you* (because opinions vary).

A. The best ROM to use ... is the one you like and the one that works best for your personal needs. to elaborate ... try them out and see what YOU like.

B. the pros and cons are ... it will be the one you liked and the one that worked best for your personal needs.

because it shows you didn't read and do research for yourself ... this has been asked and closed 1000000000000 times.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ChaoticDruid:
Ive thought Walshieau has been exceptionally nice to everyone lately, hell I cant even read half of the threads anymore do to my frustration levels.

And has far as finding stupid stuff that seniors asked, Im sure there has been some stupid questions asked, but that was before the board was flooded with info, for example, I remember being one of the first with the sleep of death back in early sept of last year with the Hermes, and remember discussing it, yet somehow people still post new threads about how their device wont wake up, and they dont know what is going on.

Its highly frustrating to me to see tons of threads on stuff already discussed, when I know the info is here, there is the site search, and even google does an excellent job of crawling the site, there can be stuff posted one day, and on the first few results in google the next.

@swtaltima, about the so many perfect room's...Its boring, I know. I have been using the 5/5 lvsw forever now, I messed around with dialers etc attempting to entertain myself, but that got old quick, Im hoping to maybe get into making a few today apps or something to kill the time untill I get something new, the TyTN was my first device of the sorts.

Just felt like babblin, since this thread is completely useless anyhow.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JasenR:
Having done extensive reading, searching, reading, testing and reading I can say with absolute certainty that WM6 is currently the best ROM you can flash to your Hermes device. Just pick a flavor that meets your needs and flash your phone. :)

Forgive me for asking previously asked questions.

As for searching the topics i have done and i was asking peoples opinions on roms. Im currently using a version od schaps and i like it.

Seems to be a very holier than though in the forum. if you dont like what is posted just dont read it or reply to the thread. Not everyone has the time to trawl through everypost in search for an answer.

Hope i havent overstepped the mark!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] snedecor:
I think he was looking for the benefit of some of the experts who have flashed many roms and know the plus/minus features of each one. Just because the first guys down the road had to struggle/trial/error and flash 87 different ROMs doesn't mean that EVERYONE should have to take the same tortured path.

Some kind expert might have enough experience to say:

1) If you like minimalist/high storage, go with Nada2, Shrunkdn.x or Gizzler's

2) If you want the full experience/audio/video/ try Evthng5, FulMonte's or Pancake's.

3) If you want the easiest to install, download HndHld2, NuBeGrey, or BabyStp1.0.1.1.0

4) If you only want the official one, wait and HTC and/or your carrier will eventually put one out.

Of course, he should be encouraged to read, read, read, and slapped down when he exhibits stupidity, or a 'tude, but some advice along the way would not only help him, but stop the other nube's that come along.

Not defending him, but trying to see the world through his eyes (how's that for mamby-pamby pap?)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pmow:
What you mention just isn't feasible. No one person has invested a significant portion of their time in every ROM. It takes quite some time to fully review each one properly, and new ROMs come out all the time. At various points comparisons were attempted, but it becomes a burden when you have X flavors at any one point.

If you try a rom and it works for you, why switch? Rather than give you an XRom vs. YRom, what about a suggestion of how to try out new ROMs without really trying them out:

1. Install a popular stable rom (see polls).

2. Use your phone.

3. When a new rom comes out, read the description for fixes and new features.

4. If you like a feature, try it out. Otherwise, wait for the next rom.

5. If rom gives you immediate problems, reinstall old one.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] andyd358:
to be honest I thought it was rather childish to lock the thread like he did i only asked a question that other people will now be scared of. there is no such thing as a stupid question just dumb answers.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ronfin44:
In the real world, yes, when you're face to face with someone that can't put a lock on your noise-hole so you stop asking the same question over and over, but here in the land of internet forum life, when people clutter a forum with the SAME GODDAM QUESTION over and over and don't bother to read about for awhile or use the search button it becomes annoying!:rolleyes:

Sorry if i have upset anyone and there is no need to be rude now is there, after all ive not mentioned your fat head so dont mention my blow hole:p
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ronfin44:
Don't give me that typical cliche **** about taking "this" "seriously". It's simple. The only people who get upset are the one-post-wonders that find XDA through Google, and wanna jump right in with questions that have already been asked and answered. Since these people are just way to good to read and find these simple answers on their own, they think the internet and the forums are theirs to do with as they please. Well kiss the tip of my ****. If they can't follow the rules set forth by the people that run this site, then BEAT IT! Go clutter HOFO with hundreds of threads covering the same pointless crap. A mature person doesn't need to be told this. They come in and read from the get-go. It's then our harsh and sarcastic replies to the individuals too damn lazy to take a moment because they want "it" now that have to be yelled at like children. Does that make sense to you now? No one cares if "you" don't like it. This isn't a democracy. It's a forum run the way the people in charge want it run, so if anyone takes offense to some harsh text for not following their rules, um, tough ****?

Ok? :)

I've searched the forum and havent found a specific answer to my question. I am currently running 5.0 with the viper rom and its pretty damn sweet. my problem is a lot of my apps and some of the xposed modules wont work on lollipop but are compatible with KitKat. so obviously i want to go back.

is there any way to go back to kitkat without having to plug my M8 into a computer?? i would basically like to do it remotely and on demand, you know flash OS back and forth like you can do with a rom. can somebody help me out with the process if it is at all possible.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You should be able to run a KK version of Viper (or other ROM) with Lollipop firmware, as least from what I've read from reports by others. While old firmware causes problems with current ROMs; the opposite has been found to be a a different matter: firmware has been found to usually be backwards compatible.

You can always make a TWRP backup of your current setup. Then try a KK ROM, and if you have issues, just restore back to LP.

If you do run into issues, then you probably do need to downgrade your firmware to KK (need s-off to downgrade firmware; and not sure if there is a computer-free way to flash back to KK firmware).
