[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Frankenscript:
There has been no official T-Mo release of Lollipop (either 5.0 or 5.1x) for it. There is a thread about using the i9505 firmware in the M919 but I haven't tried it.

Most people just flash one of the more popular Dev-created ROMs such as the Google Play Edition (GPE) 5.1 ROM that Danvdh posted... there's probably half a dozen or more very popular ones that work well and include a working kernel as part of the ROM that gets flashed. Plus lots more less popular ones.

I'm with AT&T also... the GPE ROM came with an ATT APN that automagically got selected the first time I booted the phone after flashing, and I had no problem using ATT using this phone/ROM/firmware [OH3] version.

Best of luck to you. I'll be departing the S4 sub-forums pretty soon. Just a little while ago I killed my S4 phone. it slipped from my hand, hit the floor hard on the corner, and cracked the screen. It still works but I'm going to buy something a year newer. Sigh.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ivoe:
Thanks for the reply it just seems like s4 tmo is dead.

Also I ask about a separate kernel because its been one of the things I don't trust just the ROM itself to do as right now the ROM dies faster then the charge is (just typing this.)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeanclaudevandamme:
what's the worst that could happen now?

Phone boots ok. I only wiped cache/dalvik after flashing when I remembered.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rawwrius01:
The worst is always a bricked phone.

It's always better to do a clean flash when you change your rom, install a custom rom the first time or the dev say you should do a clean flash because every rom is different (or the most of them) with different features and different coded features.

When you dirty flash your rom it can happen that your "new" rom have some problems (bootloop, battery drain, force closes and so on).

Sure you can be lucky and everything is working fine or it seems to look fine but sooner or later it will end in problems!

So I recommend always a clean flash it won't take much more time and you're save.

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer2k8:
Hello,

I had the phone for almost 2 weeks, the battery life is horrible!! I had a MI4 and i would charge it once in 3 days.

Now i have this, i`m excited with the phone but noticed this:

During 100% - 20% battery range, by default the OS uses 4 CORES (of the little cpu) on minimum freq. + 2 cores (of the big CPU) on minimum NO MATHER WHAT!

Watch a video, boom, 5% of your battery drops down.

And then, it happens this:

When you reach 20% battery or lower, the BIG cpu gets disabled, that means that you have only 4 cores (of the little CPU) always on, starting from the min. frequency...and guess what.

From 20 percent you freakin' try hard to deplete the phone, for example, when i had hit the 20% mark of the battery i had 1 hour 49 minutes of display time. I have now, 5% and 3h 20m screen on time!

What i am trying to say, is it possible to have 4 cores of the little CPU always on, and when the load on the little cpus goes over 40-50% toggle the BIG CPU for 5 seconds, and keep it on if needed ?

If the rule for the battery percent exists, and this happens, it can be made in another way for sure!

Did anyone saw this behaviour?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merewood bebox:
This is normal. The 810 uses GTS (global task scheduling) as its form of core management. 6 cores are always on and the tasks are allocated to the right core. Samsung exynos uses the same system
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Killer2k8:
Well, if others search for this issue, the culprit was that i had adblock installed and some google service in the background hammered the connection trying to send some analytics/location data or something, the connection would fail and the service would then retry again and again.

This made the WIFI always ON even if i had it set Keep wifi when display is off - NEVER + Scaning always available disabled!!

Now the cpu's are still the same 6 on - 2 sleep, but after disabling adblock my wifi turns off on screen off, and all analytics/location data/gsm connections are not hammering the cpu anymore.. and i have ~0.6/hour battery discharge in standby.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alexsandra:
My former phone is Mi4 as well. I just dont like its UI style so I just held it for 4 month. But I charged my mi4 twice a day. My op2 is also twice a day. I dont think the battery life of mi4 is much stronger than my op2. 810 chipset does cost more battery especially under LTE mode.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pholt33:
After buying a Note Edge ( which ended up having some water damage) and playing around with it for a little while, I decided that the side screen isn't that great and that a Note 4 is what I will buy. Someone has offered me a retail demo model. I found articles and videos describing how to disable Samsung retail mode and then flash a clean version of Android. What I am concerned about is the ability of the phone to make calls and function like a regular retail model.

How can I tell whether or not the phone can make calls? Is there anything in the settings that would indicate this?

Do live demo models have the same hardware?

Is it worth taking a risk, and possibly losing $$$, or is there little to worry about?

Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] resudo:
I think the only difference with the a retail unit is that the demo unit doesnt have antennas, therefore cant make phonecalls.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mekks082:
I have a Nexus 6, flashed with the 6.0 factory image.

I have my wifi set to always on (for tmobile calling). After then screen locks it shuts wifi off. This is great for my battery but bad for my staying connected. At work cell coverage is spotty and without wifi always on I can get 30min + delay in getting text/calls. This has caused a few problems with my boss thinking im off screwing around and ignoring him.

Anyone else notice this? or have a way to keep wifi always on.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joshpdavis80:
My wifi randomly drops since I updated to 6.0. It is annoying. I am not sure if it is tied to the screen shutting off or not.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gogol:
Probably it is related to this bug: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=188909

When I turned off my WiFi, it was still running, showed in the battery history detail. It was OFF, so I expect it's also OFF there. But it's not OFF. Although today, I don't have that problem.

So please STAR that bug to get more attention.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Immoblize:
Hi.

7 or 8 days on bootloop now. I guess i've tried everything - even flashing PIT files, which i guess has destroyed the phone.

SM-G920F

I have Odin ready.

I can only flash XEF 5.1.1 (france) file with Odin, others give me errors.

I can flash UniKernel.

I can flash TWRP.

I know how to push (send) files to TWRP.

Hmm.. what more..

I am not able to flash bootloader, but i am able to flash modem. It gives me nand write error fail. (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=60112855&postcount=3)

Everytime i flash XEF file, it goes okay with a "PASS" on Odin, blue android logo comes and says "erasing". After that the Samsung logo comes and goes off, comes and goes off. Same all the time.

A friend says: i think, the repartitioning when flashing the firmware with pitfile has destroyed the actual file system. would explain why flashing a stock ROM does not restore the bootloader.

Need to know more, ask me.

If you have something to help me with, please do so! I'm stuck here for about a week now.

Hello

I.m new in the forum,i'm writing from italy and here i'can't find a valid and perfect forum like this,

yesterday i had my new Uk Vpa Compact 1605(Herm200) , with

Ipl 1.01

Spl 1.09

Os 5.1.461(Build 15671.3.3.0)

Rom vers. 2.07.161.1 released the 2nd of giune 2007

Radio 1.32.00.00

Protocol 32.65.7020.09W

At the end of the day i flashed Hardspl with new ipl 1.04 and spl 2.10

and new official Wm6.

now my questions is.. Can i reflash in my Vodafone 1605 all the original rom ,spl,ipl,radio, Os etc. etc. ???

If it is possible,where can i find all the file?

Thank you to alla for the help and congratulations for this fantastic forum
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Bram87:
Hi & welcome!

Ok..understand your problem and this is your first post and maybe you thought, "aah nice forum, He WM6 that looks nice, lets flash it on my device" ..Right simple ah? But..what you forgot..is to backup or read more about flashing..You

cant

reset it back to the original (what you wanna call it) "firmware"...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
Well, this is not EXACTLY correct. Check out THIS LINK for downgrade directions. You will need to get the original ROM from somewhere. It is possible that it is HERE IN THE WIKI. Chances are that one of the files there has the same Radio, IPL & SPL. You will just need to find the OS, if it is not in there. (In fact, based on the specs, it looks like the third from the bottom of the English ones - Vodafone?) To flash, you will need dutty's good nbh tool to unpack the ROM, becuase you will need to do the IPL and SPL separately from the OS and radio. See THIS LINK for that info. If you don't want to get into all the unpacking, you *could* do the SPL downgrade first, then the upgrade, but it is generally good practice to downgrade SPL as a LAST step since you lose the hardspl protection as soon as you do it. Finally, use the google search link in my signature if you need to find anything else. Good luck.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Bensat:
Like Todd said it is possible.

Check out the links in my signature and read alot before actually doing so.....

That is a practice tip :D

The Mr VanX guide alias HTC Hermes guide has complete steps to do this!

Good Luck:D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] zetax:
Ok, tell me if i correctly understand.. :p

I found the correct rom, after i have to unpack this rom with dutty's good nbh tool..(i have to remove Ipl & Spl?).

After the unpack i have to pack again the rom without ipl and spl and flash it in my Herm??!!is it correct? And in the end i have to change ipl and spl(is it a down grade?).

Last questions yet, :p

What i have to verify first that i start all this work on my herm to not brick my Herm?

Thank you to all again for the help that you are giving to me

All the best
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
I may have made it more complicated. That is the process I use.

Best thing to do is simply follow Mrvanx guides.

First downgrade the OS/Radio using THIS GUIDE

Then downgrade SPL/IPL using THIS GUIDE

That is all - as long as you have HardSPL, it is VERY hard to brick your device. So, do that last.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] zetax:
Is possible to flash only the rom i need following the guide, and leave my device with the current hardspl ipl and spl?

Thank you :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
Yes. The only reason to remove HardSPL is for warranty. Just for clarification, there is no Hard IPL, only Hard SPL, but I know what you mean.

Basically, 99% of the time most of us flash we are only flashing OS or Radio. SPL and IPL don't change often. Most cooked ROMs are released as OS only.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] zetax:
Ah ok perfect, i'm not interested to the device warranty, because i bought it on ebay from Uk, and there is no warranty on my device, so i can only flash os without ipl and spl..

Thank you very much fo all the help

<< ZX >> :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] zetax:
Hey boy,

sorry for the up, but i have another question(s) :)

I have downloaded the rom that i need, but it is in .exe extension how can i extract from this .exe the .nbh file that i will decompile with dutty's???

2nd question, it's possible to downgrade radio rom? i put radio 1.51.00.10 in my device,but i didn't like it, because the 1.47 version

that i had was better of 1.51

Thank you for help
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] todd_jg:
No worries.

To unpack the exe, just use winrar and open it up. You will get a RUU_signed.nbh and an RUU. Just use the nbh file with the custom_ruu.

Yes, you can downgrade radio to 1.47 safely. No worries. I tried 1.51 too - didn't work out for me either. back to 1.50 for me.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] zetax:
Todd, thanks very much, i didn't know that with winrar was possible to unpack an .exe file,now i have all i need to flash my device with the hold or the new vodafone uk rom.

Tnx my friend
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] zetax:
I have done the flashing, it works perfect.. now i learn the way, i can flash every kind of Os in my tytn following this way?for example o2(Uk) os can be put in my device?

Where here in xda forum can i find the software(for eample the software that shaps have included in his Os) for my device customization?like today home,weather widget, or the automatic operator configurator etc etc?

This thread is for those to be aware of fake ones out there.

So I bought the fast wireless charger off eBay, shipped from China, for under $20. I already had an idea that it's most likely a fake, but I had some eBay bucks to spend.

So pretty much everything is different from the real and fake one, except the overall dimension is the same. The fake is much lighter, almost half the weight difference. The micro USB port is on the opposite side, no fan inside, the touch of the material is different as well. The "Samsung" and "fast charge" words are darker and bigger too, but you probably won't be able to tell unless you have the real one next to it.

Conclusion, if the price is too good to be true then it probably is. I've seen some around $12 on eBay, using stock pictures, don't waste your time and money, although eBay would most likely refund you if the stuff is fake.
