[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] hammy434:
ok.

on sam mobile website there is:

a UK BTU 4.4.4 rom which i think is the one i have now, it's the latest one on the list which i have.

an EE 4.4.4 rom (no 5.0.2 roms unfortunately)

a H3G 5.0.2 rom

the EE and H3G roms have different CSC and PDA then mine, can i still use them? theyre both for g850f which is my phone. my phone is Unlocked UK. my network is EE and i was planning on getting EE 4.4.4 and hoping EE have updated it to 5.0.2 and update through the phone. if they havent i'll just get the H3G rom.

here are screenshots of my phone info:

I couldn't wait anymore, I flashed 5.0.2, failed flashed modem of my 4.4.4 rom, works like a charm. Didn't have to factory reset. Good
[Samsung Galaxy Alpha] ixon2001:
The reason there still no Lollipop update for the Simfree Alpha in the UK is because EE as of yet still not released it for the Alpha.

Until they do Samsung will continue to hold back the BTU Lollipop update.

All four UK major networks have priority because that where Samsung makes most of it's money selling these phones to the networks, simfree users only make up a very small amount of the market hence why we always put on the back burner when it comes to updates.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] UlvarinPL:
Hello,

Deep in my mind I still remember how my Xperia S was amazing with taking pictures on stock rom.

Than i got kk, and now 5.1 nAOSP from mickybart.

So i wonder is there any port of camera that brings back the vivid and sharp photos?

The nAOSP camera is "ok" but it lacks options, no hdr etc. and it have sooo much problems with focus.

So i thought that someone may know how to improve it.

I srearched over crossdevices xperia thread but not much I foung for android 5.0+ there ;/.

Any help ;)??
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] XDA_h3n:
My Xperia is still in the drawer [emoji15] . Well I used Lenovo'S Super Camera (can't remember full name) but it is ported on XDA.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2706891&page=1

This port is for Android 4.x and above. I think I stopped using it due to the startup time [emoji20]

Try the Google Camera from the play store if you'd like the android stock look [emoji1]

For android 5.x I'd recommend the HTC port. I haven't tested it on the xps but works great on s5 and works on all Android 5 builds as it doesn't use the new camera2 api

https://goo.gl/Zi0uKQ

I've extracted it from my device - install camera first and then if it fails then install service pack then camera then gallery. The files only work for ANDROID 5.

My personal experience is with the Lenovo Camera and it is far better than AOSP stock. I've never tried HTC on the XPS but it is hundred times better than the Stock Camera on my S5 due to the manual exposure settings and quick snaps. Some modes like panorama and bokeh don't work they require the HTC Camera chip (omnivision device)

Is there a way to have the stock camera on nAOSP ? It would be perfect !!!
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TyZollman:
Good afternoon-

I recently picked up a NVIDIA Shield from a friend of mine because it would not turn back on for him. It is currently stuck at the NVIDIA Boot screen. I can access the Bootloader and I can access stock recovery. However, when I attempted to use Fastboot to unlocked the bootloader I receive the below...

(bootloader) Showing Options on Display.

(bootloader) Use device keys for selection.

(bootloader) erasing userdata...

(bootloader) erasing userdata done

(bootloader) erasing cache...

(bootloader) erasing cache done

(bootloader) unlocking...

FAILED (remote: ()

finished. total time: 3.872s

I am using "Fastboot OEM Unlock" and it does prompt me on the Shield to unlock, but once I select unlock it bounces right back to the bootloader and fails. I tried wiping data and factory reset via stock recovery, but when I do I receive an E: Failed to Mount /Cache (Invalid Argument). It will not let me read/write any of my user data files at all. It seems as if they are corrupt, but I am not quite sure.

I am looking for a way to get this thing back up and running. I am perfectly fine with losing all data on it. Is there a stock kernal that I can flash with a locked bootloader? I fear the issue is with the bootloader or corrupted EMMC. I am open to any and all suggestions!

Make sure that your USB cable is plugged into a USB 2.0 port directly connected to your motherboard as sometimes USB 3.0 ports can cause problems and front panel USB connections can be unreliable.

In case it is interesting, (if someone get managed) it should be possible to boot into twrp recovery with locked bootloader.

- Linux only - (I have not tested and can not confirm if this works. maybe i have a thinking blunder)

first we need a u-boot from another unlocked (similar) device (not sure about size?)

dd if=/dev/mmcblk0boot0 of=u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin bs=1048576 count=1

second we can boot this u-boot without flashing

tegra-uboot-flasher exec u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin

third we can boot twrp from fastboot

[Redmi Note 2 General] Flaat:
Really hope that some good reviews will come out soon. Especially comparing it with the Meizu M2 note, i know the soc is not comparable but for me battery life and screen quality are more important. For now it is very hard to find reviews, especially since all the chinese resellers and fansites abuse the word by saying review for a spec listing or spec comparing article/video. We really should invent a new keyword for a true full review with all benchmarks and measurements included. I have found a decent hands on video in chinese sadly youtube captions are not very up to the specialist smartphone talk so are more miss than hit.

Really like the phone so far. But its not in me to buy tech without a good review.

[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
Hello,

First time writing on the forum so please tell me if I do something wrong :)

So problem is that I tried to flash the latest version of Paranoid Android on my Nexus 7 but I'm getting the error "Warning! No file-contexts" and the flashing gets stuck on the next phase which is "Patching system image unconditionally..."

My device is rooted and unlocked, and I use TWRP. Of course I wiped cache, dalvik, system and data before flashing the new ROM.

I thought that the problem was with the zip package, so I managed to download it again from my laptop and pushed the image with adb. Unfortunately, I'm still getting the same message.

I even tried to install another ROM (Chroma) but it didn't work either, still getting stuck at patching system image. At this moment I wiped the whole internal storage, which worked with my previous problem on my Nexus 5.

Issue's still there.

What should I do now? I can't boot because no OS is installed. Should I try flashing the stock Android version? Or will I get the same message? My tablet is bricked, only thing I can do is booting in recovery.

Thank you very much for your help!

Kind regards,

Sebastian

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrmrmrmr:
Hi,

I have a fresh , not upgraded Galaxy S6 Edge in its box.

Currently I use my S5 rooted without any issues. As I like to use my phones rooted, I'd like to root this one as well.

But I am not sure which root method is easily applicable with minimum limitations.

For example, I need to use Samsung Allshare cast dongle and it needs original recovery image.

So I prefer to root without recovery change , or if I have to change recovery, I'd like to revert it back to original.

So, how should I root my S6 Edge ?

And, as it is not upgraded yet, should I root then upgrade or upgrade then root ? Which one first ?

Thanks.

I installed Mediahh apk on to my Amazon Fire TV stick. I then restarted the stick and opened the app using the remote. Having watched a couple of vides I decided the app wasn't what I wanted so I used the remote to exit the app. Suddenly the remot stopped working. I've changed the batteries and it's not working. I have used the remote control app on my phone to uninstall Mediahh and also restarted. I've tried to pair the remo but the stick doesnt detect it. I have read other threadds about restarting the stick (which worked for other people) or unpairing but I cannot find the option to unpair it.

I used adbFire to install the apk.

Does anyone have any advice what to try next?

Thankyou

Hi sir I m using for cwm recovery but have a no have stock nobile recovery please help to
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] pTeronaut:
Thanks to pr001, I have found the reason that the current batch of custom ROMs do not reconnect to paired BT devices after the phone is rebooted.

It is because the folder root/data/etc/ is empty. In a good environment, their should be a file named bluetooth_btaddr (among others) there. That file is a plain text file which contains the MAC address.

After reading a post in the BlissROM thread there is also an issue where two phones both running the same ROM are causing issues with connecting to a wifi network as both devices have the same wifi MAC address. and with this experience with the BT MAC address I am left with the following questions.

Aren't the radios MAC addresses fixed to the radio hardware itself?

If not, how does stock firmware provide unique MAC addresses for the radios?

If the radio chipsets do have MAC addresses tied to them, how can the devs access them?
