[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] AndyYan:
I am not absolutely sure about the domestic lock stuff, but when I got my L720, I flashed an entire stock firmware on it, updating the modem, system and everything in the process, yet the phone capability isn't affected in any way. I flashed CM12.1 on it, made a small patch to jump between GSM and CDMA (GPe probably won't need it), and all is well.

Assuming that you don't need to worry about the network problems, you need to learn how to use Odin, and find a latest modem file that's Odin-flashable. Or to save this trouble, you can flash a full latest firmware just like what I did, although this means you'll also have to re-flash your TWRP recovery.

One tip: TWRP is also flashable from Odin, and this is the suggested method.

So I was using Dr. Fone Wondershare (android recovery software) and one of the options was it had to restart a few times. After it was done (and failed), my samsung wont go past the samsung logo and just stays there :/ any help please? :/

I've got so much that I don't want to lose too, so pissed that all i wanted to do was recover a few messages

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] briandresstoyota:
Hey Everyone,

Recently my nexus 5 developed an issue with the power button. Pressing it to lock it would lock and then wake. From lock it would wake and then lock. From powered off you can start the boot, but the button somehow remains pressed and it goes into a bootloop, restarting the boot process at various points throughout the boot cycle.

So obviously a hardware issue right? Right.

Tear down the unit, clean out everything around the button. Reclose it up..same issue. Tear down and remove the plastic button on the case that actually presses the real power button actuator and it boots and operates fine. Soooooooooo.....the issue here seems not to be the faulty hardware is not the button that is soldered to the motherboard(the little white plastic one) but the ceramis/black button that is in the case of the unit. There are rubber deals on the button that must operate as a tension mechanism that allows the case button to pop back out after pressing thus preventing the "behind the scenes" button from remaining in a constant "activated" state.

Any thoughts on how to jimmy rig the case button? Im rocking the nexus right now with no case button and just using a piece of plastic to insert to press the motherboard button for sleep/wake/boot.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] briandresstoyota:
ok so in further testing the hardware button is totally bad. LMAO using my plastic piece for wake lock and stuff is giving me the same issues. any apps to screen lock or remap the power button?

[SuperSU] zombiegoaste:
Hello dear Chainfire and community!

I have a rather obscure issue: I want to run a root script at very early init.

The script (predictably) runs afoul of Selinux policy (who'd have thought) and since it's a chinese phone no sources are available.

Good things:

I can unpack/repack boot.img without issue, and can add/start services from .rc

Phone is rootable and after proper boot, SuperSu works fine (and so does setenforce 0)

Bad things:

This is lolipop 5.0 so install-recovery.sh and anything else of that general kind is not available

Source (and thus opportunity to change sepolicy) not available

SuperSu daemon's normal start is waaaaay too late for what I'm trying to do.

Question:

Given that I can add my own service and run it as I please, is there a way to "kickstart" su functionality early-on (so I can set Selinux to permissive and run my stuff), without breaking functioning of supersu after boot completes?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virus1x:
I've been flashing radios no problem but I have no expediting flashing bootloader and recovery with wug or even where to find the proper files but I assume I should do it.. Can anyone post a video or step by step on how to do this?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you download a factory image, then unzip it, then pull out the bootloader.img and flash it via fastboot. or you can grab the bootloader.img, and put it into a twrp flashable zip and flash it. its very simple, if you need a root toolkit to flash it, then you shouldnt be flashing anything until you learn how to do things properly.

Has anyone lately unrooted and relocked the bootloader on a Nexus when using a Mac? I see some videos but I am hearing a lot of them are leading to bootloops.

Anyone successfully follow a guide without any issues?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
many people use macs to root/unroot their nexus, without issue. if you are hearing about bootloops, you are probably hearing from people who have done it wrong. as all it takes is flashing the factory image via fastboot, then one lune in fastboot to lock the bootloader, fastboot oem lock.

[HTC One Mini 2] cjionel:
Hello guys, here is a method (confirmed working by Me) to SIM Unlock your HTC One mini 2 for other SIM cards for use on other GSM networks.

Tested and working on my HTC One Mini 2 (Vodafone Romania) Not-CDMA

Requirements:

IMEI

Micro-SD Card

S-offed device

Patience :)

Please read this very well before starting:

Here it goes. :)

1. You must have an S-off device. It's your choice how you do that, but i really recommend Sunshine (I know it's 25$ but it really worths.).

2. Find your phone's Imei

3. Go to sieempi.eu/blog/2011/09/22/universal-sim-unlock-for-s-offed-htc-devices-536

3.1. Fill your Email:

3.1.2. !! Please don’t use any of these email providers as they’re blocking emails from this site: hotmail, live, msn.

!! Please don’t mark the email as spam; if you find it Bulk/Spam folder please move it to your Inbox, this way I’ll have less complaints about sending SPAM from your email providers!

3.2. Fill phone type. You can write anything there. I wrote HTC One Mini 2

3.3. Fill your Imei.

3.4 Click Send

4. Go to your email and download emailed file.

5. Save it to SD card root(both internal and external, i really don't know which one use, but i think the one on Micro-SD card).

6. Turn off your device – do that properly, don’t just reboot it (press power key and select “power off” or press and hold power key for a few seconds).

7. Then, press and hold the power and volume down buttons.

8. Once the screen goes black, release the power key but keep pressing the volume down button.

9.Release the Volume down key only whe HBOOT mode is being displayed.

10. Select SIMUNLOCK and you're done.

11. Press power to reset your phone.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] weinson:
Call me crazy, but I decided to install the new Yahoo Go! 2.0 (beta) on my device (just to see if it is as crappy as the old version). The Yahoo website recognized that I was running WM6 ... nice ... I have (for those who care) Sleuth 3.1 installed at the moment.

So, far, it is running nicely. I like getting my yahoo mail on my 8525 without having to sign up for any special yahoo plan. Time will tell whether there are memory leaks.

For those in the United States, you can download from http://us.get.go.yahoo.com on your PDA ... or if you prefer, the cab file I downloaded is below. [there presumably is another link for other countries]

For others who try this out, we can use this thread to compare notes.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] raymondu999:
You know, the "push" side of things doesn't seem to be working for my Yahoo Mail... it says in settings it has it, but it's not pushing anything...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Aeneas:
i know shame about the push

just out of interest which do people prefer, live search or yahoo go?

they're both very similar
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Madcap180:
Live Search doesn't have Maps.. ;) .. that's what I like about Yahoo Go! .. that and it seems to be device specific.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chiragpatwa:
hey same here Push is not wokring !!!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] weinson:
I wish there was some way to select and delete multiple emails .. anyone figure that out? Or even just to scroll through emails easily. The mail interface, in general, seems to suck.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hiimcliff:
same thing i said... no messenger... yahoo sucks ass. i think charging for im is dispicable. once you've got a net plan it should be free. i dont care if they put ads on it. they're so greedy they make deals with the carriers to milk us each message. and that forces you to buy a text plan.

thats why google will always be ahead of yahoo. google understands that you can make just as much, if not more money in ads and give away products free as if you would try to milk customers.

in conclusion: yahoo go with no messenger.... they lost!

on the brighter side, its just beta so maybe the official version will have it.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hiimcliff:
i love the go gui. yet the live gui is more to the point and simplistic, and that can be to the user's advantage.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bwzippy:
Yeah, the Go GUI is totally sweet actually. Very easy to navigate. Now, I gotta convince my buddies at google to make something like this.....<wink>
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] GldRush98:
Wrong. I don't know what you're talking about because Live Search has both Road and Aerial maps...

I've been playing with the new Go 2.0 today... mostly unimpressed. It runs slow and I've had to re install it once already.

The only cool thing I've found about it so far is the direct Flickr uploading ability. That is cool, everything else is sub-par.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] galaxys:
Installed the new Go 2.0 beta today with no problems after reading this thread. I'll be playing with it the next few days. So far the GUI looks nice, but runs slow on my Edge connection.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gtmaniak:
It works pretty nice as an RSS Reader as well. One thing I really liked about the old Yahoo Go, is as soon as you took a picture, it would upload it to your yahoo photos if you wanted it to. Now with the Flikr deal, it doesn't do that... You have to go into the GUI and pick pictures to upload. Now you can manage the pictures better though... I have mixed feelings about that one.

Can anyone help me?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] gtmaniak:
If you have not put in your operator settings in, it will not connect because the settings are blank.

same here. Conclusion: NOT very impressive
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Newb-Tech-Realtor:
Is a memory sucker too.

Prior to install would have 18-19mb of RAM avail.

After install was down to 12-14mb.

Now after uninstall back to normal.

With most email going through my exchange server and google maps and live-search, I see no need for more bloatware.

picasa kicks flickr's ass. and they most definitely will respond. if you havent tried the mobile version, here is the link http://picasaweb.google.com/m

personally i think it would be easier for them to have a subdomain. ie: m.picasaweb.com. but what do i know.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hiimcliff:
the calender sync comes up on its own. it asks you if you want to sync with yahoo calender. its strange though because it took a while to ask me that. oh well...

i think you guys need to give it a chance though. its actually not that bad. the only think i hate is the fact that they took away the yahoo mail from mobile outlook. it should be our choice. i like checking my mail from outlook.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] weinson:
I agree -- especially because now I cannot select and delete multiple messages at once
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] raymondu999:
That's not the thing that bothers me the most. 1st, as I said earlier, push is nonfunctional. 2nd, now I can't see how many unread e-mails I have by looking at the Today screen. Even 3 days ago when I reverted to Yahoo Go 1.x (thank GOD I still had the setup file!) I received an e-mail saying how Yahoo Go 1.x would be disconnected, hence forcing us to use the new Yahoo Go 2.0
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] shtits:
AFAIK menu has command Mark Email and you can mark emails and then for example delete them all, but you should switch to fullscreen widget view to do this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] shtits:
Yeeh push not working because it's still in beta
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] bobbyelliott:
Shozu is better

I downloaded this app today and will give it a try in the next few days.

But as far as integration with third party services is concerned. Shozu is the best by far. It integrates your phone with YouTube, Flickr, Facebook, BBC and a host of other services.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rdupree:
Its cute...runs slow, but still pretty cool. I'd rather use a stand alone RSS Reader for news, and feeds though.

I wish there was a way I can manage my Yahoo Fantasy leagues. (atleast v.1 gave you a link to the page)

I also notice that when I close it out, my Wisbar Desktop is disabled and I end up soft reseting. :(

Anyone else have that problem?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] WMguy:
Really?? That is great news to me. I uninstalled it days ago due to this and have been looking for an alternative. I will now reinstall and wait I guess. Funny thing though, I had it installed for days and it only asked me if I wanted to sync my contacts. How long did you have to wait for calendar to pop up? I can't believe that if calendar is able to sync, there is not a manual option.:mad:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] WMguy:

Could u please tell me if there r any other tools to directly upload to Flickr??
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] agovinoveritas:
I tried it quite a while ago before it was released. Don't ask, search and you would have found.

Anyway, I found the #$$#%#@@$# to be bloated as hell. Also, a resource hog.

Although the push mail and all that worked fine, I personally thought it was using too much memory for what it did. At times, the usage could be as high as 10megs! So the thing lasted about two days before I as removed it.

Yahoo to Go!!!!! <--- needs to go!!!!

It is the most cumbersome software i've used to search.

Live search is probably the best, and google maps. I can't believe yahoo would come out with this type of program.

I expected yahoo to have done their research...

I mean if there are hidden functions that i'm not aware of, please do let me know b/c it's just too big and slow for me to use.

doing a search and looking up my email is like pulling teeth.

I'd rather open up my PIE and go to yahoo.com it's faster.. :)

hi,

i'm searching for a music player for my defy with cyanogenmod 7.2 that supports sort-tags in mp3. that means i can sort the music regardless from the shown artist or album name. this is the feature is miss the most since my good old ipod is broken. the only useful player i've found is the rocket player that can sort albums by the year tag, but not my the album tag.

i've tried some popular players such as poweramp, but no player has the feature i'm searching for.

Xenoamp is meant to support them, although they never actually worked for me and I've since moved on. Worth trying, though, as it's a good app and the dev is very cool.

Have you tried GoneMAD Music Player? There is a free trial version available, so you can check it out.

Furthermore, you might want to try MyPlayer++ from XDA member DMDP. He is a great developer who actually listens to user feedback and implements new feature requests. If his player does not support sorting by your preference, ask him if he can implement it.

Flashing a bootloader

Hi,

I have a Nexus 5 and I use Multirom with it. My default ROM is Lollipop 5.1.1 and a secondary ROM, which I mostly use, is Marshmallow 6.0 (xTraSmooth). I want to install CopperheadOS, but it says when installing, that I must have HHZ12h bootloader in order to install (as stated in a previous post). My current bootloader is HHZ11k. If I install HHZ12h bootloader by flashing a zip file which includes LMY48B_Radio+Bootloader-HHZ12h will it cause anything that prevents Lollipop or Marshmallow to work properly?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pretoriano80:
You don't need to downgrade the bootloader, just modify the updater script of the rom ( deleting the string containing the bootloader version or replacing with your current version), then it will install just fine.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pretoriano80:
It's easy, just extract the rom, go to Meta-Inf/com/google/android and modify the "updater-script". That's all, rebuild the zip and flash in recovery.
