[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suparuss:
Hi, I'm hoping someone can help me here.

I wanted to switch from CarphoneWarehouse branded firmware (XEU) to EE branded (EVR) to get access to WiFi Calling.

I do not want to root my phone, just don't feel comfortable with it due to Knox.

So I was on stock 5.0.1 and I flashed via Odin, 5.0.1 EE firmware.

Odin failed on hidden.img, phone now stuck in bootloop but will boot into download mode

So I tried 5.1.1 BTU firmware, same problem, Odin failed on hidden.img, bootloop, recovery works

I searched XDA and found this thread: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/help/solved-stuck-download-mode-failed-odin-t3104736

I followed those instructions but the my-recovery-img.tar isn't available. So I made my own by extracting recovery.img from the 5.1.1 BTU firmware. But now Odin won't actually flash anything when the phone is in download mode!

Any ideas? This is what I see in download mode:

p.s. I have also tried using Kies 3.0 and Smart Switch, but neither of them recognises the device in either the error mode or in download mode
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oualidos:
you can use the smart swith (more > Emergency software recovery and initialisation > software update and initialization give it your model SM-G920F and your S/N you can find it on its box it will restore the latest firmware available for your phone, i have tried something similare to change my rom but it turn instable somehow or ussd has being unactive, this restore turn it back to whatever rom it was on

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suparuss:
That's a French ROM, will that matter? I'd still like to eventually get to EE branded firmware for the WiFi calling feature, but right now just want to get my phone back!

I'm going to try Smart Switch from a different PC
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roydok:
It does not matter as long as its G920F it will work. Just wait for the official 5.1.1 OTA update. ;)
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suparuss:
So I think I know why I can't use Smart Switch, because I've upgraded partially to 5.1.1 (just failed at hidden.img). You can't downgrade back to 5.0.2 from 5.1.1, but Smart Switch has 5.0.2 as the latest software for my carrier unbranded phone.

Any ideas? Can I trick Smart Switch to use a different firmware? Can I do it using Kies? Odin just doesn't want to do it, and I'm not the only person with this problem, I just can't get out of the bootloop
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] jackstiefel:
Ok, so we all know Lollipop has a memory leak. I have been playing with things, and have found something that has been working great for me now for over a week...

I have alway been a fan of Clean Master, having used it on numerous android devices, but there was one option I never used until now... I have no connection to this app, just something I use personally.

Open Clean Master

Hit Phone Boost

Tap 3 dot menu at top right

Choose Auto Kill

In this setting click Auto Battery Saver. I have tried to turn off the option to Show Results, but it always reverts back on.

Thats it! I have been happily running a VERY snappy responsive phone for over a week. Maybe once every so often I actually run Clean Master to clean caches etc, but not every day like I was having to do before.

Your milage may vary...
[P3600 ROM Development] zen123:
Loaded the official Dopod WM6 rom onto my SPV M700. Gone through all the settings but can't get Windows Live & Messenger to connect through wifi even though wifi is activated. It will always connect through 3G. I tried deleting the 3G wap settings & activated wifi but then it won't connect at all instead saying it an't find an active internet connection.

Anyone got theirs working over wifi & can lend a bit of help. Thanks
[P3600 ROM Development] katsj:
It must be some settings issue cause my P3600 is working fine connecting to Live messenger through WiFi!
[P3600 ROM Development] torquefever:
I have same problem. can't figure out the reason..
[P3600 ROM Development] Arilexed:
Had the same issue.

The cause in my case was that I did not follow the instructions of my provider. I forgot to configure the vodafone proxyserver.

Internet worked, mail worked but Windows Live would not connect.

After I configured my proxyserver everything worked great.
[P3600 ROM Development] clignoteur:
but how to configure it, please give some details, thx.
[P3600 ROM Development] Trixster101:
Would these proxy settings affect the VPN options too?

Everytime I try and connect to work even though WiFi is on the VPN connection always trys to use the gprs or 3g connection. Really really annoying..
[P3600 ROM Development] campberd:
I am still using WM5 and 2 different versions of WM5 have given me similar problems which I have not been able to solve yet. I have to use a proxy and even though I configure the proxy correctly, I can not access the internet. I have done the same configurations on the HTC TyTN and a Imate Jamin and they have no problems. I have delayed upgrading to WM6 due to all the problems others are having.
[P3600 ROM Development] zen123:
OK I did a hard reset no programs loaded & just configured the wifi. Tried connecting to Windows Live, Messenger & Hotmail through wifi worked fine.

Then I entered operator settings exactly as I had it before upgrading to WM6. With wifi still active I again tried connecting to the above but it still insists on connecting over 3G.

I went in Connections Settings & removed the MY ISP settings (which were O2 3G setting) & tried again. Even with wifi still active it would still look for the 3G settings & as I had deleted them it would not connect at all.

Really need to sort this out as I don't have an unlimited data plan (crappy O2 tariffs) but I can't get it to WL to connect over wifi.
[P3600 ROM Development] Arilexed:
How? I simply followed the instruction given by my provider.
[P3600 ROM Development] Mesquire:
My D810 even tries to connect to my 3G/GPRS on soft reset so I suspect it may have something to do with my Contacts with all these Windows Live Messenger contacts - it doesn't connect after I remove the Windows Live account from the phone.

The only way I can find to stop it from connecting to my 3G connection and connect through Wi-Fi is to force it to use anything but a connection to my mobile service provider:
[P3600 ROM Development] Rudegar:
when i want to use anything but phonenetwork for internet stuff i choose "My Work network" in both dropdown menu's

and set the upper one back to "my isp" when i want to return to using

phonenetwork
[P3600 ROM Development] Trixster101:
Well after much messing about I reverted back to as default as I could using Mozzer's rom for Orange UK. Tried the vpn settings straight away and it worked perfectly, I can only assume that maybe in Mun's rom there are some settings missing that Orange UK doesn't like missing as that is the only difference on the phone now.
[P3600 ROM Development] zen123:
I've given up. Tried everything but Windows Live & Messenger still won't connect over wifi it will only connect over 3G. I'll just have to resist using Messenger & checking my Hotmail messages.

Other than this problem the Dopod SEA WM6 rom is brilliant. Nice & fast & very stable. TomTom is fast & smooth works flawlessly. Had no lock ups or crashes.
[P3600 ROM Development] lmjabreu:
Try turning off the phone, leaving only the wifi on, sign in and turn phone back on again, works for me.
[P3600 ROM Development] BCCKiller:
WIFI with LIVE

My unit is doing the same thing. What i did is connecting to WIFI first. Right after, i click on Windows Live, my unit will try to connect to GPRS. What i do is cancelling the connection and my unit will start using WIFI connection. The only way to stop it using GPRS and using WIFI right now is cancell the connection before it connects.

F.Y.I.

[P3600 ROM Development] zen123:
Yeah works a treat this method. Just hope I remember to turn the phone back on afterwards

He's talking about customizing the quick setting tiles. I too don't like the cyan background and the icon colors. Is there any way to customize that ?
[Galaxy Grand Prime Themes and Apps] b0ttas:
Using Xposed Framework you can change the colors used in the status bar to make it more appealing (I had mine orange once ^^) , however without a custom ROM I don't believe you're able to put the AOSP status bar.
[Device Reviews and Information] frankandwendy:
Blackview say their new phone will feature all the usual bits and bobs that make it a flagship device. A slim body, bezel-less design, 2K display, and 4GB RAM. Not following in the Snapdragon trap, Blackview have opted for a Mediatek MT6797 chipset for power and will spec the device with either 16-32GB internal memory.

Front camera hardware is still a mystery but the rear sensor will be a 20 mega-pixel Sony IMX230 camera. All very promising!

The real standout feature though is the display which not only packs in all those pixels but also has an integrated fingerprint scanner. In this case there will be no need for a physical home button, or rear mounted scanner. We’re not sure how Blackview will solve the integration but we are certainly excited to try it out!

Blackview Concept phone highlights:

QHD 2K display

4GB RAM

Mediatek MT6797 chipset

Screen with integrated fingerprint scanner

Sony 20 mega-pixel IMX230 rear camera

We’ll try to get more details of this upcoming phone before the launch in September. So far what do you think of this stunning new phone?
[PAC Q&A] tobi24:
Did the development for Sony Xperia Mini Pro (mango) stop? I can't find any recent thread or downloads of PAC ROM for Xperia Mini Pro (mango). The last release was " pac_mango-lp-Nightly-20150529.zip", right?
[PAC Q&A] Cross0x0:
If you checked the basketbuild website and under your device folder there is no more updates there are two possible causes; the maintainers are busy or the other one they abandoned it. In any case you should check your devices subforum and check it.
[E 2015 General] spiked_mistborn:
Just for kicks I thought I would check and see what would happen if I added ro.config.low_ram=true to my build.prop. Before doing this, I had about 250MB of free ram reported in Settings / Apps / Running. Afterwards I have about 375MB of free ram, mostly from a reduction in system memory usage. You do lose some transparency and animation effects, but the phone seems to be much faster now, especially when switching between Apps. I have an xt1527 Moto E 2nd Gen LTE running stock 5.1 with the squid kernel r6.

Instructions:

** Root is required **

Using a root file explorer edit the build.prop file located at /system

Add the line ro.config.low_ram=true

Save the change and reboot
[E 2015 General] Psiufoxx:
I'm surprised you never got a reply to this post. How did this tweak work out in the long run? I'm thinking of applying it to my own Moto E 2015. Thanks!
[E 2015 General] iks8:
Isn't it making lockscreen solid black and notification background black too? I'm using this on my tablet with 4.4.4 too but when I tried it on 5.0 it was pretty strange. BTW it's good to disable animations too because this tweak can make them less smooth.
[E 2015 General] spiked_mistborn:
Ha ha, I figured nobody cared since there were never any replies!

It seems like many of the Google apps will recognize this setting, so it can help somewhat if you are running the stock rom with all of the Google apps that come with it. You do give up some graphical effects; the biggest for me was the tab previews in Chrome. I'm running CM13 now and I haven't tried it yet with that, but I only have a few Google apps installed so I don't know if it would help much.
[E 2015 General] Psiufoxx:
We care we care!

I've also gone the CM13 route with my Moto.. and I find it mostly smooth. I should probably update with a more recent nightly.

Though I was wondering about the ram tweak for my Blu Studio 7.0 LTE phone.. also running a Snapdragon 410 and only 1gb ram and on Lollipop. It stutters here and there.

Did you find/learn any other tweaks for 410s?
[E 2015 General] Arthurlalves:
Hi, i'll test on my moto e 2gen (Otus) and pos the results here!
[E 2015 General] spiked_mistborn:
Not really, other than setting some apps to not load at startup, and using Titanium backup to freeze others that I only use on occasion. This is not really SD410 specific, but more for devices with only 1GB of RAM.
[E 2015 General] iks8:
exactly as spiked_mistborn says, it's the issue with 1gb of ram. SD410 with 2gb of ram (even with 1,5 gb) can really fly, my sister has phone with this configuration and it's way faster than my moto e. Just keep your ram usage low but no with "ram cleaners", just uninstall apps that have big background processes (like facebook ect). Check ram stats and you will know what to uninstall. If you're real hardcore you can try using rom without gapps, with micro-g and some alternative app store.

and one more thing

because we have 5.0-6.0 android that is less ram efficient than 4.4.4 (imo) moto decided to enable zram and it makes this phone slower, old moto g on 4.4.4 doesn't have zram enabled and it's faster.

Hello, all. As the title says, I am on 11.0-XNPH05Q and I really like it and have stuck with it. I don't want to go to CM12 or anything higher right now, but I know there are updated modem/radio files out. To do that, will it simply be as easy as just flashing the radio/modem ZIP like from a Calkulin's extras ZIP in TWRP and I'll be good to go?

Thank you.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr hOaX:
No you can't

You can just flash any kitkat based ROM radio/modem file on this ROM

If you want to use CMOS12 radio/modem files, probably you need to upgrade completely to lollipop.

I am on same ROM and have flashed 05Q modem.

Working fine for me.

UPDATE 8.5.15

Hi All, I was asked to share my 8 bit sound pack with you all. I have been making and tweaking this same mod since IceCream Sandwich. I always enjoyed the simplistic 5 channel sounds of the Nintendo Entertainment System (80's Baby) and since I have 8bit icons, wallpaper, etc I wanted matching sounds. Any comments are welcome. If you have an idea for a better sound for a specific action or other ringtones or notifications, I am all ears.

Included in this .zip are all ui sounds, ringtones, notifications, and alarms.

Warning this .zip DOES replace your ui sounds, but DOES NOT erase your notification or ringtones simply adds some 8bit ones.

I used this mod with my OPO and been using it forever with aosp based rom (SlimSaber).

I am only posting now because the forum is quite quiet lately.

If anyone would like to take my little mod and use it in their work just give credit where credit is do..

8-Bit Sounds Android Lollipop Version --Now also for JellyBean for those still running CM11>> >>

Revert Lollipop UI also works for JellyBean(stock sounds) >> >>

Feedback is really appreciated.

Pardon my absence, I was out of the country. But I have no idea? I had cyanogen recovery it was only for a few brief moments when I took the phone out of the box. But if you can flash zip files in cm recovery it can work. The XML document included just follows a path if that path is not found a print statement is returned, that is it no harm done. But give it a shot if you can flash zip files.

Tried everything to fix the problem but with no luck.. Anyhow, time to get a new phone. Debating between the Sony Z3 and the Galaxy S5 Active. Specs are pretty much the same. Form factor as well. What about rooting a Sony phone? Easy? Possible? My Note 3 is not rootable, no matter what I try... unless I go back to 4.4.4 (or 4.4.2. I fogot).

As the title states I'm not sure which method to use to upgrade my Z3 Compact to 5.1.1 This morning I woke up to the OTA notification on my phone but I was not sure if there are any pros/cons/differences in upgrade method.

Also whenever I upgrade the OS of any phone I like to factory reset... although this time Im not quite sure which is better. Factory reset before upgrading to 5.1.1 or after the 5.1.1 upgrade.

I sure both of these were touched upon in the 5.1.1 thread but I dont have the stamina to re-read through the entire 40+ pages of content in that thread, so I do apologize.
