[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nibunnoichi:
I actually want motorola's features (Moto display, Moto actions, always-on voice recognition).

Is it possible that there is a flashable version of the stock Motorola rom? So once there is a 6.0 update, instead of OTAing, I can download a flashable version of it and just flash that instead?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emailrob:
Some apps only work with root (like Batter Battery Stats, xposed). That's a good reason to just root without custom roms.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zender2k:
The sole reason i root is to install an ad blocker.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cronoc:
Yup, for me Better Battery stats, Titanium Backup, the possibility of putting the back button on the bottom right instead of left, and activating double tap are all reasons to root the stock rom.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emailrob:
Double tap is ROM specific isn't it? Or is there an xposed module? Its the one thing I miss from my OnePlus, despite the 'aware' sensors
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaseman:
Much of the stuff you people are trying to accomplish can be done with Nova Launcher. No root needed.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
If you flash back to stock.

Remove the custom recovery.

You can now take the OTA.

After you take the OTA.

Re-install TWRP

Flash SU.

I have done it on other unlocked devices.

The point being, an unlocked bootloader allows you to flash/install TWRP whenever you want.

Then you can regain root.

Unlocked bootloader means you can always regain root.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Locklear308:
You'll never loose data (except for the first time you unlock the bootloader) unless you choose to wipe internal storage. So no worries mate.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nibunnoichi:
Good to know. I'm curious to know if there's a simpler way to update. Is it possible that there is a flashable version of the stock rom and future stock roms? So once there is a 6.0 update for the Pure, instead of OTAing from Motorola, I can download a flashable version of it and just flash that instead (1-step process)?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cronoc:
I honestly don't know. I'm coming from a Cyanogenmod-rom'd phone, so I'm just hoping I'll be able to get back some of these features...
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StreetkillnHD:
There might be but if u want simple flash a custom stock rom, im sure they will have a few, its basically stock rom but with tweaks and with a few stuff added. Then feom there just flash the updates for that rom. On my lg g3 i use to use a rom called cloudyg3 rom, it had everything stock rom had but a more tweaked version and such.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pizza_pablo:
I opened this thread hoping for a method to prevent taking the 6.0 OTA, because as I understand, from reading the Moto X PE TWRP thread, The only root method for 6.0 is systemless, which I think I want to stay away from, in hopes that 6.0 will get regular root, in the future. I think i would rather stay on LP, while waiting.

My MXPE arrives Thursday! I would like to use it some, before having to root, but I am certain the 6.0 OTA update will be soon to show.

Is there a way to stop the OTA, prior to bootoader unock and root?

Do I just need to unlock/root/flash ROM right away?

I am hesitant, because I'e been away from Moto rooting for a few years. I've been Samsung rooting, with TWRP and SafeStrap.

The stuff I'm reading here, about Minimal ADB, Fast boot folder and using cmd prompt is a bit daunting and I would like more time to continue reading and learning, before doing the deed.

ETA: I just realized that the OTA will come from Motorola, not Verizon. How does the OTA come>

Is there a Moto app, that I can disable, without root?

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nibunnoichi:
Why do you want to stay away from systemless root? If it works it works right? I'm just waiting for the method to be further tested and out of beta, or if "regular root" becomes possible.

The cmd thing is easy. I've followed the instructions carefully to Unlock my phone. Just gotta remember you need to back up your data.

The OTA comes automatically, if you have any kind of connection at all (4G, 3G, wifi). I got it before I even activated the phone on my carrier.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dks5055:
Hello,

I purchased a used Tab S 8.4 (SM-T800) a few days ago, and I immediate ran into problems. Most of my apps crash after a few minutes of use, and the whole system reboots frequently.

I've done two factor resets, and i reinstalled the latest firmware from Sammobile. However this didn't solve the problem. I'll mention that the "SecurityLogAgent" would also give me frequent security notifications, but i think this is an unrelated. I've read this is a common issue, and I've disabled it using Package Disabler Pro.

The device currently isn't rooted, but I have no idea what the previous owner did with the device. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Resolder the black battery connector may solve the problem of reboot.

One quick test, slap hard on the back, near the center, a tablet with badly cracked battery connector will shut down immediately.

It may or may not work on this test, depending how bad the battery connector is.

Okay I see, I haven't posted a thread for the ROM yet, did you get it from my page on android file host?

Also, you'll need to factory reset before you install the ROM. You can do this by going into TWRP > Wipe > Advanced > Then check everything except for MicroSD Card

Try that and report back to me if it worked or not

Also, Camera doesn't work on this build and you cannot change brightness as a heads up

That's great! I'm not sure why MTP had to do with anything. My best guess would be that something was wrong with the wire and plugging it in and out somehow fixed it (lol). Just as an FYI, only the port on the left-hand side of the device works for communicating with a computer, all other are just to put flash drives and stuff into. Have fun with your device! Keep checking back to the Cyanogenmod post to see if there are any updates!

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hawksking:
Got my new Note 5 last week and rooted it, the guide I followed worked but someone in the comments said their phone was restarting occasionally especially during phone calls (saw this late)

So, everything went fine and now some time the phone will just restart on its own for no reason, it was literally sitting on my desk and decided to restart, it has happened a lot of times and also when I plug my headphones in to listen to music and i put it in my pocket it just gets stuck and i hear a constant sound and then it just cuts off and phone lags for a good minute and everything goes back to normal except the music sound, even after its turned up and music is playing i dont hear anything, i have to restart my phone for it to work again.

This is on a Canadian Bell Note 5 (N920W8)

So my question: Is there anyway to prevent this music/restarting problem while still maintaining root status?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dandroid7:
Not sure what kernel you are using, but random reboots is a known issue with several of the rooted kernels out currently. The developers of those kernels are working to find the solution.

Meanwhile, arter97 has a kernel that seems to not have that issue. Not sure if it works for your device specifically, but if you check the development thread you can read up on it and see.

I have also had good luck with the jovy23 kernel in the t-mobile note 5 forum, but again I'm not sure of compatibility with your device.
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hawksking:
Yeah looks like arter97's kernel is compatible with my model, can I overwrite it over my current one using the instructions on his thread? I use the Noble Kernel atm.

What im stuck on is custom recovery. I dont see online anywhere where I can get ClockworkMod or PhilZ recovery for Note 5. Do you know where I can get one of them?

Random reboots is a known issue with the noble kernel. The developer is working hard on solving the issue.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=62608884

There are links to Twrp and Philz recovery in the thread linked above. Twrp also works fine to flash that kernel, I have used it to do so.

Yes you can flash the kernel over your existing one. You don't need to wipe anything to flash a kernel.

The Philz recovery is usually in the same folder as the arter97 kernel at arter97 download location. I have used many of artery kernels on my note 5, currently using his beta 5.0 kernel, it is running very smooth.

I believe others have had success using the app called flashify for flashing kernels, but I have not used it before. It is available in Google play store.

There is an app in beta testing called flashfire that I use for flashing kernels, but you have to sign up to get the beta test app.

I have had the new Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 8" for a a week or two now. One thing I notice very clearly coming from a Nexus 7 or my Moto X 2013 phone is that there's a delay in all network connections. You can even see it when you use the devices side by side on the same wifi. It happens in the browser, in all apps and so on. If I open a profile on OKCupid for example it will take about 5-6 seconds on the S2 but on my Nexus 7 it's 2 seconds.

[Galaxy Note5 Accessories] saranwrap:
Look no further than the Tech 21 Evo Tactical. I haven't seen much discussion around this case but honestly it's my favorite that i've tried and everything else I've returned. It's got the same exact feel as Magpul cases which is what I liked most about them. Nice and grippy but also offers good protection. My only complaint is the buttons are super stiff. Also big downside is the cost.. $40 is steep for a case!

Another nice perk of the case is its not that hard to remove, as is the case with most cases I've used though thanks to the number of port openings along the bottom of the case.

You should probably figure out how to apply the update because it makes the phone 1000000% better. You can root it again after you update it or just update it using a rooted image and save some time.

Agreed.

After updating to 10N, you can then block future OTA Updates via my previous post.

I updated to 10N using this method. Works great:

so the update you have been receiving was or is for 10n? if so then just flash the 10n xtreme rom from micromod and you will be all set for it includes tweaks and no more ota surprises too
[T-Mobile LG G4] m0j0:
The update isn't working for me. I used the "Low Effort Root," and I may have made a half-hearted attempt at blocking OTA, but I keep getting prompted for the update.

Accepting it causes the phone to to reboot and try to install, but then it just says "Error" and hangs. After a few minutes, it reboots, and I am still at H81110h.

Any ideas? I like the idea of low effort, and not flashing another ROM. I would rather just take the update, and re-root if needed.
[XDA Assist] MikeNZd4d:
Hello all,

I'm unsure about where to post this issue I am having with my handset. Let me explain a little about what is going on, and maybe someone can redirect me to where I should post the full details and hopefully get some answers :)

Have a Huawei C8813 Handset from China. It was payment for a computer job I did some time ago. I suspect it was a contract phone of some description, however it was completely wiped when I received it.

I had to perform some build prop edits in order to get it working on 2 Degrees here in New Zealand. These involved (ro.cdma.home.operator.numeric=53024) and other related lines.

The issue I am having at the moment is that when I receive calls from other cellphones in New Zealand, they come through with no International prefix (this is fine, and desired). However text messages I receive from NZ cellphones come through with the International prefix. So if I were to receive a call from 022022022, it would come through as such, but a text message from the same number would appear on my handset as +6422022022. This causes me to attempt to enter both the prefixed and non prefixed numbers into every entry in my address book. Text messages will send fine to either the prefixed or non-prefixed number, but this causes message thread separation (undesired).

Further to this, if I make calls to a non-International-prefixed number (a local New Zealand cellphone) eg 022022022, I get a dialog up titled ""Yi Dialer" (China +86)" with the following options: "Call China (International Roaming Call)", "Call China (**133 call back)", "Call other country", "Call local". Obviously the call goes through fine if I select "Call local". However, if I put the international prefix in front of the number for NZ (+64,) calling a number in NZ, it bypasses "Yi Dialer" altogether and just makes the call eg: +6422022022.

I have searched the internet far and wide and can find very little related to "Yi Dialier" (or "easy dialer" if translated from Chinese). I have checked out all of the stock applications that came with the phone and none appear to be related to dialing.

I am interested in perhaps a build.prop or similar setting that may erase this issue and make the phone believe it is based in New Zealand. As far as I can work out, the handset thinks it is roaming all of the time, when in fact it is not. There is no convincing it of this through regular Android settings with regards to the carrier or cellphone network.

Any help or direction with this would be greatly appreciated. I am happy to provide screenshots and exact build.prop edits I have done to make the phone operate here in NZ.

Thanks in advance,

Mike
