[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] quarky42:
I have been using my phone and had an update kick-off because I was tapping right where the "ok" / "accept" type button was at the time. It sucks having dialog boxes coming up at inopportune times.

I have woken up and found my phone updated, the next day. Not cool when the update kills your root. Seriously, if you are going to root your phone you need to be willing to pop by the forums from time to time to at least glance to see if there is something new.

After this I always disable the update mechanism. Burn me once shame on you, burn me twice shame on me and all.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Kaliaila:
What kind of phone did you have that the dialog box actually pops up without first clicking the notification at the top? From what you describe it sounds more like you brought up the notification, hit the install later button, somehow checked the install automatically box while setting the time and did not notice, then hit ok, and went on with your day after which it updated in your sleep. If you had actually hit the button to install the update right then it would have started installing immediately (at which point you could have stopped it before it even started the update).

I would say that if you are going to root your phone you need to pay attention to what you are clicking, and if something happens that you don't want to then know where to go check/change it or how to stop it immediately (battery pull, if possible, usually works best). If you go by the forums, there are tons of updates which at times are linked with updates which never actually pushed out to the public. Also, how often should they show up "from time to time;" once every couple months, once a month, once a week, once every few days? Realistically, unless it is once every week or few days then you are missing out on that update for weeks or possibly months depending on if the update occurs the next day.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] fukenbiker:
Okay I read the entire thread. I'll be the first to ask. I'm one of those that turned off the updater after getting root (the hard way, holy smokes, I've never seen such a complicated workaround).

I'm very happy with my custom 5.0 TouchWiz ROM, and the debloating script gave me great battery life (battery life straight out of the box is horrible).

I see I'm vulnerable to Stagefright, so I made it so my MMS pop up with a prompt if I want to download it's content or not. I have to approve just to see the emoticon my wife sends.

As mentioned, those of us with custom set ups stop by the forums here to see if anything is new. Voila! Here's a thread about just what I was wondering!

Am I the first one to show up? Looks like it. I'm not going to be a guinea pig again am I?

Is there anyone out there that has tried this "stage fright fix"? Are you stock? Then don't answer me.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] quarky42:
I've had mostly Samsung products (Fascinate, Charge, S4 and S5) with a couple Motorola Droid products. I have seen updates install the way you describe as "normal" but I have also seen updates start installing because you've ignored them too long. It's easy for you to assume I did something wrong, but considering I've had my share of experience with Android phones you'd be flat out wrong. I've also seen an update install because of a toast notification that came up while I was typing and/or tapping on the screen in an app. How do you pull a battery in a phone without a removable battery? Sure I could have tried a hard reset in the middle of an update installing....that sounds pretty stupid to me. Extremely risky considering the update runs while you're holding down the buttons for the reset. All it takes is a couple files getting updated before the update is done for your phone to get screwed.

I would expect firmware / os updates to not install by themselves, but I've seen it happen. Heck, I've had custom roms that didn't have the update mechanism disabled and they tried to update. I prefer to be rooted and have the update apk disabled because there is far less to go wrong. Just because you haven't experienced it doesn't mean other people haven't.

I've rooted every Android phone I've owned. Multiple times usually, because of major OS updates.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Spartan117H3:
[MENTION=1247593]quarky42[/MENTION], just ignore him. He likes making baseless assumptions. Same reason why he can claim disabling an update but letting it pop up every week is considered an actual fix and is more "secure" because people are too lazy to check for updates themselves. Then just ignores it when someone says something that he doesn't like.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Kaliaila:
You are confusing me with yourself. The update doesn't pop up ever again if you dismiss it and update it directly.

I have rooted every phone I have owned as well and not experienced this. As I suggested before I expect that instances where you experienced the auto installing as being an older phone issue or something that the service provider insisted on at the time. I have no problem with you having your preference. Also, I don't doubt that people have experienced it, but I find that the times it happens do tend to either be fairly old incidents or turned out to be a setting on the specific device to apply updates at a certain time or after the notification has been up for so long.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] quarky42:
You just made my point for me. If the notification is left up too long, it installs anyway. That is a prime definition of an automatic install. That is exactly what I don't want to risk, especially on a phone that can't be rooted anymore. Even if this specific phone never had an update automatically install ever before, I don't trust Verizon to not decide to suddenly reverse course. Not when root access is at stake if you're wrong.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 General] Spartan117H3:
Wow. You can dismiss it by updating. You are a genius. Tell me again how your workaround fixes the issue. Not to mention, you would still have to deal with the update message until you DO update, and you CANNOT update if a patch is NOT released yet, unless of course, you want to lose root.

So you base your experience as absolute and inclusive of all the experiences that other people have, allowing you to dismiss all cases, and every other case to you is extraneous, because you yourself did not experience it. Great logic. I noticed you didn't even respond to him when he said he was doing something and the updater popped right under where he was tapping at the time. Guess you have to "watch" what you're doing, because you know exactly when the updater shows up.

You also state that the updater will eventually automatically update. So good thing watching what you're tapping is a good workaround.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xiedugs:
Hi,

Couple weeks ago I update my device HTC One (M8) with 5.0.1 android version. After update I'm having issues with my built in car bluetooth device. It is older version 2.0 bluetooth. It connects as usual, but when I am trying to make a call, it connects and disconnect every second or so. It is not related voice, or "beep" sound. It just disconnects, and immediately connects to my car bluetooth.

Is there any way to fix this problem? Or maybe there's a way to rollback bluetooth device software (but not all system update)?

I have already tried standard issues - unpairing, changing device names, restarting. Nothing seems to work.

Thanks

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumean:
Hi guys, I have the zenfone 2 ww version (ZE550ML) rooted.

Short version: received the system update notification and tried running it OTA but that failed, most likely due to root. So I decided to download the entire firmware build and manually flash. That seemed to go okay but it immediately caused some weird display driver issue. After doing google and threads on xda it seems like my DPI settings got screwed up. So by default my resolution or dpi results in very very small icons and text on screen.

I tried using the adb shell wm density command and editing build.prop (rebooting) to fix this but based on the output below the system isn't truly accepting the changes. This discrepancy is leading to some applications rendering badly. E.g) changing my display picture in whatsapp results in the app zooming the image to a humungous size and I can only crop a small section of the picture.

Output from adb shell wm density shows that no matter what I change the dpi to the phone registers the actual dpi as 320 instead of the normal 480. I did the command on a friend who has the exact same phone to get the different outputs. Does anyone know how to get the native dpi to register at 480 (3.0)?

I've tried re-flashing the firmware and using older versions..same issue.

Key differences evident:

Working zenfone 2

Display Devices: size=1

DisplayDeviceInfo{"Built-in Screen": 1080 x 1920, 60.000004 fps, supportedRefreshRates [60.000004], density 480, 403.0 x 403.0 dpi, appVsyncOff 7500000, presDeadline 12666666, touch INTERNAL, rotation 0, type BUILT_IN, state OFF, FLAG_DEFAULT_DISPLAY, FLAG_ROTATES_WITH_CONTENT, FLAG_SECURE, FLAG_SUPPORTS_PROTECTED_BUFFERS}

mAdapter=LocalDisplayAdapter

mPhys=PhysicalDisplayInfo{1080 x 1920, 60.000004 fps, density 3.0, 403.0 x 403.0 dpi, secure true, appVsyncOffset 7500000, bufferDeadline 12666666}

my zenfone 2

Display Devices: size=1

DisplayDeviceInfo{"Built-in Screen": 1080 x 1920, 60.000004 fps, supportedRefreshRates [60.000004], density 320, 403.0 x 403.0 dpi, appVsyncOff 7500000, presDeadline 12666666, touch INTERNAL, rotation 0, type BUILT_IN, state OFF, FLAG_DEFAULT_DISPLAY, FLAG_ROTATES_WITH_CONTENT, FLAG_SECURE, FLAG_SUPPORTS_PROTECTED_BUFFERS}

mPhys=PhysicalDisplayInfo{1080 x 1920, 60.000004 fps, density 2.0, 403.0 x 403.0 dpi, secure true, appVsyncOffset 7500000, bufferDeadline 12666666}

So it's clear his dpi settings are at 480 (density 3.0) and mine are locked to 320 (density 2.0) and this result is the same no matter what I change my display density to via build.prop or shell wm density.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xgneilx:
Hi!

How are you getting those details?

BTW, based on your data, your friend has a density of 480 which i think belongs to ZE551 and not on ZE550. Correct me if I'm wrong.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knowledge@heart:
And as you stated in "My Zenfone"

You are getting 1920x1080 resolution. So, i think you flashed wrong firmware.

551ML firmware on 550ML??
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumean:
You are correct, after confirming the models etc.. it was a firmware mis-match on my part that started the entire mess. Realised that when my accelerometer was not working either.

adb shell dumpsys display
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumean:
Yes I did. I believe my errors started when I did the incorrect firmware build after the failed OTA. So that first build possibly changed my fastboot, boot, recovery images and I was under the wrong impression my model was the 550ML. It didn't help that the Regulatory Info in Settings|About reflected the model as the Z008D.

So once I restored the correct fastboot, boot and recovery images for the Z00AD and factory reset I was able to re-flash the correct firmware.

Everything works fine now. Thanks very much for chiming in.:good:

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] Uncle_James:
embrio, use WinXP for flashing, not vista, about your problem with camera button and other shorcut button, I think that it`s something wrong with your device, I use my 3350 from april and have a lot of interest of diskussion about Artemis-Love on many PDA forums, and I never listen about such problem you have. I foget about how many times my 3350 was flashing.

Dear Embrio... until today HTC never ever release Official WM6 for M700 (Love). I dunno why they loose interest in this wonderful Artemis Model.

Don't you all love Artemis M700 got more beside 64mb Flash ROM & 64mb RAM.. it got extra spare internal 128 MB Hard Disk... Love it!

We just try our best to deliver WM6 for M700.. by modifying P800 Official ROM.

It just not many here using M700.. its not common device... so less cooker able to cook the ROM for M700 model.

Try Meschle's latest O2 Vanilla ROM.. its quite good actually.

Try to upgrade with WindowsXP because windowsXP is proven to be the best windows so far... Vista is buggy and performance Hog... they about to release the Vista SP1 soon... stay tune on that.. about WDMC.. well lots of folks here got problem with WDMC.. is not entirely reliable in some devices.

But.. if buttons is your problems.. try to install application that able to change the way button works... i saw many of those in this forum..

sorry don't know the links... maybe someone able to point it out.

Best Regards,

WEN

Ok, thanks for answering me. So if I used my regular Spotify premium user and password (I don't have a Facebook account) and I chose to uninstall the plugin then there's nothing else I should do, right?

Seriously awesome app and plug-in. Only been using it for a couple minutes but when casting spotify(maybe others too) Sound is still coming from my phone speakers. Volume controls the speaker as well. Would be nice if it acted like other casting apps and disabled the speaker and controlled CC volume. Minor bug. Not sure if a log or anything would help here. Let me know if you need more info.

Edit: is Spotify radio planned?
[Encore Music] XpLoDWilD:
Saved tracks, artists and albums can't show up because of a limitation in Spotify's API. Your playlists should show up however, so you'll have to go through there for now. As soon as Spotify adds this ability, we'll add it within the app.

We'll change that in an update :)

Spotify Radio isn't planned for now, however we're looking to add a similar feature that works with your entire library.
