Now it also reached me. Got a Galaxy S 10.5 . Looking forward to find some knowledge about internas. Specially I am interested to flash it with a Linux distro. The internas as well cause 26 years ago I studied Informatic in Germany and as I become 50 this month, Android wasnt so interesting ... :) The first thing was to find a forum like this one. Also for a bunch oh usefull Tips and hints.

I am busy in the VFX branche for film, media and tv.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] StewD:
Having tried the Touchflo ROM that is available, here...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=316023 which has a few bugs that are a real pain, especially the "X" button not always working!

I was wondering if a new version is in the pipeline, I know people like Tom Codon are busy, but I'm sure that there is a demand for such a ROM, I know the "lite" ROM is also available here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=318621

But after Tom questioning the memory side of things, I'm not jumping on that one yet.

Tom ? Anyone ?

[Xperia Z2 General] i am Kal-El:
i have looked all over google and xda but I only found a few stock based roms only one of which is based on the latest firmware. I had the beautiful Xperia SP before and its support forums were way easier to navigate and find stuff. also had a dedicated fb community for development and discussion. so I am havin trouble here. please let me know if you know any

stock lollipop based roms

other than existenz y, PureX and mx. Thankyou.
[Xperia Z2 General] BlAckXpeRia:
What are you talking about? I also had XSP and the forums are not different at all. And better have 1 good rom that you use than a bunch of bad ones. For stock-based latest I suggest you try NanoPOP. It will be updated soon to V.3. I haven't tried it but I will today. If you don't want latest, you can try Moonwalkers ROM. I used it before, it is pretty good(and has an awesome font). The MX one was full of bloatware and audio problems.
[Xperia Z2 General] i am Kal-El:
I find the xsp forum better because it has a lot of roms mentioned in the index thread of roms and kernels and also there is a new thread by an awesome guy who tests new lollipop based roms and posts reviews which are some what helpful. also the fb community is a lot of help. I was looking for one of Z2 on fb too. but never mind that. thank you for the suggestion. but nanoPOP is for ub. I don't want to unlock just yet.
[Xperia Z2 General] BlAckXpeRia:
Why don't you want to unlock? There is a DRM restoration fix in the cross-device section. It restores Bravia, camera quality, noise cancellation etc. It is really convenient to have it unlocked. You can flash a multirom kernel to test roms and choose the best. Having someone that tests them does not mean that the best rom for him is best for you. Everyone likes different things.
[Xperia Z2 General] i am Kal-El:
I know everyone has different needs but there are things that everyone wants, stability and performance. those are the things he reviews. because xsp had a lot of issues, you may know since you had one. well anyways, my Z2 is still just a week old, and a big upgrade from XSP so I will wait a little more before I unlock. I like the stock Sony eXperience. I am enjoying it for now. I waited a while in XSP too. but it had a lot of lb roms to try.

Ask your phone manufacturer for stock ROM or if you are rooted, check with root explorer,you will get scatter file. use space mtk tool to backup your stock ROM.

[General Questions and Answers] RaulAkaAlaRau:
Hello,

First I am new to this forum and I did a root and flashed a custom ROM on my I9305, the CyanogenMod 12.1 of winxuser. The OS works flawless. I did with CWM recovery mode and rooted with SuperU.

My question is this: If a new version is uploaded and I want to flash it on my device, what are the steps to do it right without loosing my personal apps installed on the device? In the future its posible to exist new build of the custom ROM that I am using right now.

Thanks for the answers in advance, and sorry if my question exists anywhere on this forum, i searched and didnt find anything.

:D

To have a titanium backup of all apps is the solution
[General Questions and Answers] RaulAkaAlaRau:
And the titanium backup is made from my CWN recovery or its a third party app on Google Play?
[General Questions and Answers] droid_god:
Thired party app on google.

Using CWM recovery you can make a nandroid backup. But cant restore the data to a whole new rom.

One roms data is not tooo good with another rom.

Nandroid backup stores your syatem, data, catch, doot, recovery for future refrence.

Use those two to backup your data and rom settings, then clean flash the cm nightly
[General Questions and Answers] RaulAkaAlaRau:
Sorry to bother, but how do I know in the Titanium App what to backup, because i have a lot of apps showed there.

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] droid_god:

[General Questions and Answers] RaulAkaAlaRau:
Sorry but there are apps xolored in red and green. What about the ones that are in red color. Yhey look like system apps or something.
[General Questions and Answers] droid_god:

Try using cyandelta, you dont have to download the whole zip file every time you want to update. It just downloads the new added updates. Here's the link check it out. . http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6TUtVq-j8E
[General Questions and Answers] RaulAkaAlaRau:
Thanks for the useful link above with the CyanDelta, but for my ROM is not quite the proper mode to update my ROM because its an unofficial one. Untill we will have it officially I can not use the app.

Glad that I found it tho. :)
[General Questions and Answers] droid_god:
So you are planning to flash another rom
[General Questions and Answers] Blu8:

This is the rom that i using right now

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/development-i9305/rom-t3066156/post62681973

And its unofficial one. This will not give automatic updates only those posted by admin.
[General Questions and Answers] RaulAkaAlaRau:
Thats why before flashing another version of it I have to backup all my data and restore them.
[General Questions and Answers] droid_god:
Ok so now i think there is no problem left
[General Questions and Answers] mohdfahad47:
Oh. Anyways the app wouldn't cause any harm, it wouldn't get any matching files for the unofficial build. Best of luck buddy.

---------- Post added at 04:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:23 AM ----------

But i think u can dirty flash the updates of the same rom. Try googling.
[General Questions and Answers] droid_god:
It will be hardest to work
[General Questions and Answers] RaulAkaAlaRau:
What is dirty flashing?
[General Questions and Answers] droid_god:
when system files are not formated before flashing and just the folder is added whith new apps and the extra waste in the stock rom is also not removed

samsung galaxy core 2
[General Questions and Answers] RaulAkaAlaRau:
I was thinking at this, if I download the latest ROM from the other post and copy it on my device, and then use CyanDelta to install the ROM, what would happen? My files, apps will be removed like a fresh install of a new ROM? Here is the point where I dont understand yet what will do the Titanium Backup with the backups of my apps and files. Plus, in the Titanium Backup I dunno how to back all the files from single click. I am doing it piece by piece.

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] droid_god:
Cyandelta is like an update packages and replace or add new files.

Titanium backups are not nessessory.

Hey guys

I need you're guys help to fix my MAC address problem.

Well there are many app's in the play store that may allow you to change the MAC of the phone after the update to Lollipop it stopped working

I tried the Tmobile Netherlands Lollipop and also the Nordic Lollipop and still can't change the MAC, it used to work at Kitkat on my Note 3

My exact question is if someone with a other stock rom/custom rom try to change the mac

This was the app I used, it can be downloaded from the playstore

Wireless Mac Address Changer

Root and Busy box is needed to use this app.

PS.

Tried also edit the mac via terminal but didnt work

Need a bit of advise - I have acquired a Samsung Galaxy Ace, and the idea is to let the mother in law have it just to see if she can get on with a smartphone.

I have unlocked it, and had a bit of a play with it (it is currently running stock Android 2.3.5) and I had forgot how un user friendly the older versions of Android were (especially the Samsung based one's).

Anyway, I am looking for a more up to date ROM (maybe something similar to one of the newer Samsungs) which is easier to use etc.

Any help or advise would be appreciated.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockreactor:
Hello !

A couple of weeks ago i managed to put my galaxy s3 in the wash maschine :D

The good news is that the phone was fully functional after i took it out of the wash maschine (data was not washed away :P )

The second day the soft keys as also the led behind them stop working. I opened the phone and cleaned the contacts.

After booting the phone the soft keys started to work again (not the led, but i do not care about this).

The problem now, although the buttons seem to work, they do have a really slow response sometimes. For example i notice that i can press like 5 times a second the button (back button for example) and the button response once every second only. I have noticed that this situation is kind of random. For example if i change the led duration of the soft keys or lock and unlock the phone, the buttons do respond completely fine. After i lock and unlock the phone again, the buttons again start to respond once every 1 second. Let me note here something. There is no delay in the action, meaning that i press the button and something happens after 1 second , it means that i can press the button and nothing happens, it accepts the command after 1-2 second key pressing.

First i thought that this is more like a software issue. So i tried following which none of the above seem to fix the issue:

- Reset the phone

- Installed 4.4.4 android port

- Deleted /data

Any suggestions that i could further try (except of installing a new rom again). I am kind of confused as i do not know anymore if this is a hardware or software issue.

Hi everyone! I would like to warm you about scam pages using HTML5 Vibrate API to mimic system notifications!

The problem is quite old and you can read about it here for ex. link to the blog.

But really bad news that our Note 4 with stock browser allows the using of Vibrate API without asking the user for permission!

You can test this yourself by going with your Note on this test page https://shkspr.mobi/vibratescam/. Please take in mind that it is not harmful example.

But I decided to write this topic because there exists real scam using Vibrate API like this one:

http://wonderlandads.com/?zoneid=292440&pbk2=e7365e726b0ca06f51ec06c833fa6db16188134738946672277&r=%2Foc%2Fhan%2Ftomb

The link is adapting to the device and outputs different pages for them. I have attached screenshot of the page opened in Note 4 stock browser so you don't have to try it by yourself.

I also made a test of some popular browsers to find a way for safe browsing and here is my results:

Test on device Note 4 stock android 4.4.4

Stock browser vibrates

UC Browser vibrates and plays sound

Chrome does nothing of this

I believe that other Samsung devices and firmware versions are vulnerable too! If you wish you can test a link from the article I mentioned in the beginning of this topic and write here in the comments the results. I am particually interested if new firmware with 5.1 is safe or not from this threat.

Thanks all!
