[E 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] m0ckingbird:
I've noticed that my rooted XT1527 2nd Gen MotoE will automatically "wake up"/turn it's screen on whenever it recognizes that it has been given a power source (or the power source has been taken away).

Basically, every time I plug in, or unplug the power cord, the phone's screen flicks on in recognition of the change in power status. I want to disable this and have the phone screen only turn on if I physically press the power button.

The reason I'm asking is because I am experimenting with charging my phones with solar panels. Things work great when it's very sunny out, but when it's cloudy, even though the phone stays plugged to the solar panel, the charging source flickers in and out with the clouds (which seems to be the equivalent of plugging and unplugging the phone from the commercial charger in rapid succession). When this happens, the phone's screen turns on in recognition of either gaining or losing the power source, and on cloudy or rainy days, this process happens so frequently that the phone screen essentially stays on all day and slowly drains itself of battery much more quickly than it would have if it didn't feel the need to turn on the screen every time the power source came back or went away.

Any suggestions for how to disable this "screen on to recognize change in power status" feature?

My phones are rooted and I've made some simple firmware modifications to them, but I'm definitely a n00b.

I won't go into the details, but I'm using the phones for scientific research, which is the reason for the solar panels. I want my phones to be able to stay on and collect data, but I don't want that screen waking up and flicking on every time there's a change in power status! I'd love to be able to get rid of this feature! Any ideas?

Hi

I bought Zenfone 2 - Z00AD (4GB ram, 32GB rom, 1,8Mhz), it works fine but I can't find software update option. Simply it is not where it supposed to be.

I bought ZF2 at GearBest.com. And you?

i bought my ZF2 at TinyDeal.Com
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irish_PXzyan:
Howdy lads.

I have bought my exact same model from dealsprime and I also had the same issue due to the fact that it's the Chinese model with a flashed WW firmware :/ When I went into the recovery mode it actually said that my firmware was the CN 2.13 version but under the software model details it showed WW 2.15 version. So you can't actually update it OTA because of this sadly.

I was able to safely update to the latest update with ease though, it isn't difficult and I will point you into the right direction.

I am unable to copy and paste the link here due to the fact that I have under 10 posts so type this into google and it should be the first link: "how-to-update-ota-without-bootloop-on-rooted-zenfone2"

This carefully explains what you need before updating and even gives links to each file/programs that are required.

I was very unsure weather to take the risk doing it this way but I decided to go for it.. and it worked every time I wanted to update my phone ^^

BUT! Don't bother with update files. only download the FULL firmware which is over 1gb and just flash it. It will not wipe any of your files or data so no need to worry about that:good:

Also I only needed to follow the first 8 sections so you won't need to do the 9th,10th or 11th sections.

It is always recommended to wipe cache partition after flashing also ^^

This is the only method that has worked for me with this phone model after trying at least 6 other methods which all fail.

Give it a shot and don't be scared! But just read carefully and do as he says ^^
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bajsisi:
Irish_PXzyan thank you!!! I did it step by step and it worked!

Thanks again.

How can I wipe cache partition?

Can I make OTA update after that, now I see UPDATE option?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bajsisi:
The steps to wipe cache at http://www.asus.com/zentalk/foru ... hlight=wipe%2Bcache is a little outdated.

The updated steps of wiping the cache is listed as below:

Switch Off the Phone.

Press and hold "Power + Volume Up", release only power key after your phone vibrates and keep volume key pressed till you see ASUS Logo.

System shows the mode at the top as “Normal mode”.

Change the mode to recovery mode with the help ofvolume keys, select recovery mode with power key,

System will restart and you will see android logowith error message,

Press and hold “Volume Down + Power” key and while keeping those two pressed, press and release Volume Up key. System will now enter into recovery mode.

Select wipe cache partition (volume up/down tomove; power button to select), Process will start and will take approx.8-10 minutes.

After completion select reboot system now.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irish_PXzyan:
Your welcome ^^

Now enjoy the updates!!

You will have to do this every time you want a new update so you will never be able OTA sadly, at least from my experience I have yet to find a way to do this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] zluishenry:
Just wondering if I can update to OC6 over Samsung Kies. I'm not currently on the States and I already know that I'm not getting any updates over the air since there is no AT&T service here.

My phone came out of the box with Lollipop (COC4), and I have never tried to downgrade it, if anybody has a alternate way to update it to OC6, it would be really nice to know more about it :D !!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] spexwood:
I literally just helped someone with this issue in another thread. It was kind of off-topic, so I'm not going to blame you for not seeing it.

http://xdaforums.com/note-4-att/general/warning-att-note-4s-ship-lollipop-oc5-t3189614/page4

Simply put, Kies will always show that the ATT Note 4 is up to date, when it isn't. I don't know EXACTLY why, but it has to do with ATT being the ones releasing the final version of the firmwares, rather than Samsung.

Anyway, you have to use Odin. Read my conversation starting from the link above. There, you'll find more info as well as a link to the Odin file for the latest firmware.

If you get stuck somewhere, PM me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] zluishenry:
Sorry for not seeing it :(

I had several days checking couple of threads but I was not getting as concrete answer as yours, I guess I would read everything untill the end, one more time I'm sorry for making you write this again but thanks alot !! :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] anasgeo:
Hi guys are you still here? A friend of mine bought a 910a from US and he can not update it because of the known issues (not ATT sim card). I saw this thread and you made me very happy :o . But please can you describe the exact process you made so as not to destroy his phone ? :confused :confused: :fingers-crossed: I am aware of rooting etc but I prefer to destroy mine phones not my friends'. Also his is going to use it in greece :cool:
[Samsung Gear S2] clubtech:
Anyone knows if it will be possible to make or take calls on the none 3g version when tethered to a phone?

I think the first generation gear s was able to do that but I can't find any information on the gear s2.

All the reviews mention that the 3g version is able to make calls when NOT tethered to a phone, no mention about the none 3g version when it is tethered to a phone.
[Samsung Gear S2] kingoanklebreakn:
You can make the call but the watch doesn't have a speaker so you won't be able to actually talk on it. You'll have to either pick up your phone or use a Bluetooth headset.
[Samsung Gear S2] clubtech:
Is this verified or an assumption ? Do you currently own the watch?
[Samsung Gear S2] supersoulfly:
The standard bluetooth models, regular and Classic, cannot make phone calls. There is no speaker on them. If you want to make calls from the watch you need to pick up the 3g model that comes out next month. That one has a speaker.

This is based on spec sheets. This is based on tutorial videos. And this is based on personal ownership and experience with an S2 Classic.
[Samsung Gear S2] clubtech:
Thank you! Guess 3G version it will be.
[Samsung Gear S2] kingoanklebreakn:
It's been verified by multiple sources. That's why I think I'm gonna skip this watch. Classic doesn't come in 3g and I'm not a fan of the way the sport version looks.
[Samsung Gear S2] verks:
I have the non 3g and I can initiate a call but have to continue on the phone or Bluetooth.

Sent from one of my many devices.
[Samsung Gear S2] clubtech:
Yes, sounds like android wear is doing it today.

I wish they would do it like Apple is doing it with their watch. You can take and make calls regardless of the watch having 3g connectivity.
[Samsung Gear S2] gordonzhao:
If I see someone making a call on their watch and obviously the call will be on speaker you'll get a slap on the hand. If you're going to have a conversation don't be that guy and have it on speaker.
[Samsung Gear S2] kingoanklebreakn:
I rarely talk on the phone in public and when I do, it's NEVER on speaker. That's just obnoxious. I think it would be good for when I'm at the house and my phone is in another room and I can't get to it in time. I could answer on the speaker until grabbing my phone.
[Samsung Gear S2] JonGarrett:
the Gear S2 cannot make or receive calls. if you get a call you will get a notification and if you slide to answer it tells you the call is on your phone. when you try to make a call it says that its dialing on your phone.

this is the deal breaker for me, Im returning it this Friday. the Gear 2 is much more functional while the Gear S2 just looks better.
[Samsung Gear S2] clubtech:
Have you tested this with a galaxy phone or another brand android phone?
[Samsung Gear S2] JonGarrett:
I tried with my Galaxy S6 Edge.
[Samsung Gear S2] gordonzhao:
It doesn't matter on the phone as the sport/classic doesn't have a speaker, only microphone so it won't be able to handle an actual call. It can initiate one and you can have the actual conversation on your handset
[Samsung Gear S2] Sampson0420:
agreed, this is a huge deal breaker for me... just picked up a refurb gear s for $150. Now I wait for speakerphone support through android wear!
[Samsung Gear S2] Android_Fr3ak:
The LG Urbane 2 does this with android wear. However, it has its own Sim. Not sure if that it what you are looking for.
[Samsung Gear S2] supersoulfly:
I think speaker support will be coming to Android Wear sooner than later. Thought I read that a tear down of the Huawei watch showed an unexplained speaker present in the watch.
[Samsung Gear S2] Sampson0420:
Don't want/care about sim card support, not until carriers allow sim card cloning so your watch and phone have the same phone number. At this point, I want BT, WiFi, and voice calling.
[Samsung Gear S2] Android_Fr3ak:
Just FYI, LG is working with US carriers to clone SIMS.
[Samsung Gear S2] sweets55:
You can make and receive calls with the T-Mobile S2. Not that I plan on doing that but nice feature to have. It also has 4G.
[Samsung Gear S2] bolens999:
Also it would be like AT&T Numbersync which I do not know when it will be released.

Try this:

Flash stock firmware (I would suggest that you use the latest firmware available). Then check for any updates using the update option in settings. Update if any available. Now try flashing your custom rom following the guide in specific thread.
[Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazar0169:
TWRP is a little tricky to flash (confirmed on: I9301I, I9300, I8190) :) When ODIN remove your device, before anything appear try to boot into recovery. If you miss that moment, you need to flash again because for some reason, stock recovery appears later if you're late at first boot.

However, CWM is different and had no problem with it. But TWRP have more options and user friendly UI. Also comes with file manager so you can transfer files while your phone is into recovery. :)

Hello, im currently on my honeymoon and i just lost all my pictures that i took on my phone. I received the Lolipop 5.1.1 update yesterday and after my note 4 updated and finished optimizing apps, everything seems normal but my phone restarted and went into recovery mode and wiped everything clean.

I know I should always back up but I didn't have acess to a computer and this never happened before after any updates I received.

Is there any way I can get back my pictures ?

I actually teared up because today is my last day on my honeymoon and I don't want to even tell my wife.

Any help is appreciated.

I recently soft bricked my phone. I cannot get the software running to fix this issue, therefor I am giving up. I have a couple of questions.

1) Could I put my 2 year contract sim card into an unlocked phone and run it?(just reassuring, as I don't want to buy something and not be able to use it)

2) If so, do adapters for micro sim to sim exist, or can I buy a micro sim phone?

**NOTE** I apologize if anything in this question is confusing, or downright obvious, as I am kind of disgruntled for various reasons.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uzair40:
1) Yes.

2) I don't know, but if you ask to your operator they will change your Micro SIM to a SIM..
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Have you tried to find help with restoring the software on your soft bricked phone? As long as the stock firmware is available, and just soft bricked, it should be resolvable. But as far as using your card in another phone - depends on your carrier. If it is a GSM carrier, then there should not be an issue using it in an unlocked phone. It would behoove you to make sure that the unlocked phone has compatible hardware to take advantage of your carrier's network. Not all phones support 3g/4g/LTE on all networks, whether they are unlocked or not. They do also make adapters and SIM card cutters to adapt the SIM to various phones, however, it is recommended to just get the correct SIM from your carrier to avoid issues. Some phones are finicky if the SIM is not cut or adapted exactly right.

Ok, so my friend was trying to use the partition tool to get more data but it screwed him over and now all he can get into is download mode, doesn't even have stock recovery now. So when you try to flash any version of the kdc(10c, 10e, 10d) it just stops at 49% on the phone screen.
