[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] malem1:
I purchased a new G870A Galaxy S5 Active this week, which was preloaded with OC5 (5.0, Lollipop) firmware. I was able to root the device by downgrading to 4.4.2; the guide here was very helpful: http://www.droidviews.com/update-att-galaxy-s5-active-to-lollipop-root-it-and-enable-wifi-tethering/

The exact procedure I used:

1. Flash NE4 firmware with Odin (The latest heimdall from git didn't work; I had to boot Windows 7 and install Odin & Samsung USB drivers)

2. Reboot the phone in recovery (power+volume up+home). Use the options to clear cache & reset to factory default

3. Reboot the phone normally. It might appear bricked & take up to 5 minutes to get past the AT&T logo.

4. Root with Towelroot

5. Follow the instructions on the linked page to install pre-rooted OF3 (Lollipop) firmware and the OC5 bootloader.

6 (important). Kill OTA updates by renaming /etc/security/otacerts.zip & /system/priv-app/wssyncmldm and then rebooting. Delete anything in /data/fota for good measure. (Use your favorite root-enabled file explorer or shell.)

Note that this will not work if the phone has received OTA updates beyond OC5. See this thread: http://xdaforums.com/att-galaxy-s5/general/how-to-update-to-g870aoc5-5-0-keeproot-t3083841

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moko_Loko:
I wanted to buy the new nexus 6p for a long time now, even before it came out...

I have a friend living in the US coming to visit ,and he leaves the states at november 10....

Is there any safe way to buy the phone and making it arrive on time to his house before he leaves ?:confused:

Thank you for helping !:D
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opt05:
I would contact the Google Store's support team, or you can always place an order and cancel it if the estimated ship date isn't to your liking.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
You probably won't get one by Nov. 10., unless you want a 32GB version.

All variants of the 64/128GB are sold out on Google.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aridon:
This is good advice.

Most likely not. Not sure when the 32gb is shipping but I imagine its cutting it close at best case for Nov 10. You could always get gouged on Ebay or look on swappa or craigslist.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxys:
Think it's too Late for your Date!!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moko_Loko:
actually i do want the 32 GB nexus, but since the date is so close i'm afraid to take that chance...

is there a physical store that will hold the 6P by that date ? if there is, I don't need to take that chance on a web order...

Or maybe amazon will get a hold on it till then ? they usually have a very reliable shipping time from what I'm aware of..

thanks !
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
There won't be a physical store that has the device by then.

Hard enough to get a Moto Pure in a store and it's been out a month.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] floepie:
You're going to miss LTE band 20 if you are in Europe with the US version. Other bands could be missing if you're living elsewhere.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moko_Loko:
sadly, since I have to.... I need to decide which other phone to get.....I thought about the nexus 6 or the moto x pure edition....

what do you think ?

1. I really love the nexus family and the updates, but the nexus 6 have a very high SAR rating....so that disappointing...on the other hand I could not find those SAR rating for the moto X pure edition....and usually motorola phones tend to have a very high rating...Do you know its ratings ?

2. Its not a nexus and I'm not sure how "future proof" the moto X pure will be with android updates..

3. Since time is a main thing to consider, how long do you usually need to wait if you buy the phone from "moto maker" ?

both are 350-400 $ phones which is nice....

what do you guys think ? Is there another opting to consider ? maybe nexus 5X ?

I was able to successfully load on WM6 on my TYTN but I only get the number now for caller id and do not get the name and number as our carrier now sends this in the CID stream. Does anyone have the same issue and have subscribed to name and number display? There might be a registry setting I need to change.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lcohen999:
thought I would bump this
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Xaaran:
I'm on Rogers, and u get the names only if have them in your phonebook. (Prefferably on the phone!)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lcohen999:
Rogers has a name caller id (even if it isn't in your phone book) available
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] boxer82003:
you have to make sure its part of your plan i think rogers has 2 types of caller id basic and an advanced which shows the names
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] magicsword:
you need to have a name display service on ur rogers plan, which coz $2 per mth!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ariaguest:
the problem isn t the 2$,

i pay it but wm6 doesn t display name ... well sleuth, black majik and the official htc where not displaying the name...if somebody can help us with that

thanks in advance
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Ender666666:
As a Rogers dealer, I can attest to the fact name display doesn't work by default in WM6.

I'm thinking that name display is enabled when the Rogers Ext Rom or config files run on first boot with the device. I have access to these devices, just don't really know how I would dump this tweak from a stock device. If anyone has any idea, I'd be more than happy to try an help out.

I do know that Name Display is an enhancement unique to Rogers and that all of our launched devices have to have special things done to them to enable the feature.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ariaguest:
hey Ender666666 , that would be nice if you could upload the Extended ROM on the wiki at the Available Extended ROM Versions

--
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] macpapi:
he's right, the tytn is not showing the name of the callers that aren't in my contacts.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ariaguest:
macpapi are u on rogers?

do you pay the display callers name?

for the one who doesnt know that service click here
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sirtrini:
I'm on Rogers and pay for the service... it worked great on my Nokia N95... but since I have a non Rogers TyTN - the service has never worked.

I've never seen a Rogers version of the TyTN. So I'm not sure if it's enabled on those.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ariaguest:
hey Ender666666 are u sure the name display work on a tytn from rogers ?

thanks
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Ender666666:
Nope. I don't have an unaltered one in stock at the moment (they're oin backorder nationwide) but I'll see if a co-worker can confirm it.

If I was to dump the Ext Rom, how woukd I do that?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] macpapi:
I can confirm after doing some tests that it doesnt work on the tytn. I pulled out my sim and put it in another rogers phone and it displayed the caller name and I can guarantee it's wasnt in my address book. We really need to find a way to make it work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] macpapi:
Also, the dumped rogers rom can be downloaded here ftp://xdaupload:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Hermes/HTC_TyTN_Rogers_Eng_1.34.631.14.zip. I extracted it yesterday but dont know what to look for or if it contains the extended roms. :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ariaguest:
thanks for the link macpapi
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] imasri29:
I'm on fido (which is Rogers) and I dont get names displayed on my TyTN. When inserting the SIM in my Nokia, they display. My friend who has the Rogers TyTn (i have the softbank) gets the names displayed.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Ender666666:
I confirm (through a co-worker) that name display doesn't work. damn

I did make a copy of the contents of the Ext_ROM and uploaded it to RapidShare

http://rapidshare.com/files/50925506/ROGERS_EXT_ROM.rar.html

Could someone post the Rogers Rom image to RapidShare please?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Techvir:
i am using rogers pay as u go a and the caller id works for me...

and some thing out of the topic

But i have another issue with rogers.. when ever i call any number inside canada and if it starts with +1 then the line gets disconnected immediatley....so i have to edit all my local number s and remove the inital +1 and then dial....

any one having this issuess
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] yu130960:
That's great do we have enough to put together a full WM5 Rom restore for warrranty purposes at this point?? Also, am trying to learn how to recook some things and was wondering if we could extract the Rogers splash screens.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sirtrini:
Yes caller id does work... we are talking about caller name display. Its a feature you can order with rogers so if you don't have the name/number in your phone book - rogers will add in that information. They get it from the local carrier and Fido/Rogers customer profiles.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lcohen999:
f.y.i. I am getting a new TyTn when the new stock comes in, in a week.

Before I WM6 it, is there anyone (re: caller ID, etc) that anyone wants?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ariaguest:
we got some different opinion out if it is possible or not to have the Tytn (with the rogers OS).

so for now We know that it is not possible to have the Name display on a non rogers

Name display

( Name Display is a new service that allows you to see the names of national landline callers as well as Rogers Wireless and FIDO callers, even if the person is not in your address book! Rogers is the first wireless carrier ever to provide this product! )

yimasri29 can you confirm that the Tytn of your friend have the name display

-this mean he pay for it

-and it actualy work as it suposed to ...( display name when he dont have them in his phonebook)

if that is right would it be possible to know what version of windows ( built ...etc) he got... then we will be able to compare it with the one form Ender666666 and macpapi

Ender666666 hey what is ur version of the ext_ROM ? is it from the dumped rom of macpapi?

thanks ... sorry if i repeated things ... i just want to make things clear, even if i am not really good in english .. hope every body understand what i wanted to tell

because of that ( the fact that english is a second language, feel free to send me a private message to correct me if i am wrong on something)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Ender666666:
Hey, I'm sorry but I don't know what version the ext_rom is.

My understanding is that there is only one version of rogers so far, so yes I would assume it's the same as what is in the dumped rom, but NO, that's not where I got it.

I simply mounted the ext rom and then copied the contents.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] lcohen999:
We'll see if the new batch as anything updated
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] TomTrottier:
CallerID name vs Contact name

Alas, on my treo 680, the name Rogers supplies takes preference over the name for the number in my Contacts. So John Smith of Megacorp looks like MEGACORP rather than Smith, John

:(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Khristopher:
That's unfortunately the way the Treo 680 works with Name Display.

I don't regret losing THAT gem of a feature when I switched to a TyTN. :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ariaguest:
where could we find the original wm5 rom from rogers?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arifd:
Hi I have z2. After upgrading to Lollipop, I started observing frame drops when recording video in the auto mode. I was hoping that the later firmware upgrades

would fix it, but the problem is still there. I am on Build 23.4.A.1.232 . The frame drops are in the actual recording (not the viewfinder only). Any ideas? Though I like Sony, I am really

upset with this problem, considering switching my phone.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mr.loverlover:
Try to downgrade to kk and then upgrade back to LP. Do a full wipe during that operation.

Luckily not from an iPhone = Yesterdays technology at tomorrows prices
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arifd:
That's very convinient,do we need to disassemble and reassamble the phone too, just to be on the safe side you know. No wonder Sony has no traction in US, I really regret buying this phone.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlAckXpeRia:
What are you doing here when you can't create a backup and flash an ftf? Things like this happen. It can happen with every device.

I really don't know why Sony has no traction in US, but I also don't care. In my class there are 8-9 people with Sony phones, so they have a pretty good traction here.

P.S. Sorry if this sounds rude. I am just being direct with you. I am also sick of hearing how Sony doesn't have a traction in US. Remember- this is not their priority. They don't even do advertisement there.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] merlin803:
In the past week my Galaxy S5 (SM-G900V - Android version 5, Kernal 3.4.0) has lost the ability to connect to the internet a few times when wifi is on (under wifi, it appears that it is connected successfully to the wifi but when using the internet I get an error message about DNS not working).

This first time it happened was at at home and I thought that maybe my router just needed to be reset (which didn't fix the issue) but it happened at work today.

Both at home and at work, the only thing that I could do to fix the issue was restarting the phone (resolved the issue at both locations).

I tried all of the following suggestions with no luck:

Turning wifi off and then back on

Making sure that 'Always allow scanning' and 'Smart network switch' were both turned off on my phone

Choosing the wifi network on the phone and 'forgetting' it and then connecting to it fresh

Setting the DNS servers on the wifi network of the phone to use a static IP address and static Google DNS servers

Trying a different browser on the phone

The only thing that has resolved the issue once it starts is to restart the phone.

Any other suggestions?

[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysAdmNj:
I haven't had a nexus in a couple of years and I cant remember google being much faster at pushing out a bunch of updates than the big names like samsung,lg,htc etc..I mean have they gotten better at pushing out updates and more of them at that?
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Evo_Shift:
Well fast isn't really the word I would use. Google will be first to update Android so you would get the updates as soon as they are available instead of having to wait for them to be offered through your carrier.. They update as often as needed I guess. Apparently they will release a security update once a month. We'll see how long that lasts. When they do roll out updates they seem to take a couple weeks to hit every device so they are slow in that regard. Most other companies will roll out an update over the course of maybe a couple days rather than weeks.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0.0:
I think security updates will last a long time, or be forever. Android keeps getting hit with some malware scare or exploit. I think there will be some very minor fixes within the security fix patches from time to time
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dijonemon:
The only problem with the monthly releases is the Optimizing Apps message that can take a long time. No sooner will these start getting released that normals will start complaining they get an update every few weeks and lose their phone for half an hour while it does it again.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woodydog:
Yeah the need to do something to get the app optimization quicker. Makes flashing roms take forever
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mymusicathome:
Apps are optimized on a per use basis instead of all at once when updating starting with marshmallow. When I updated my n6 to marshmallow it only took seconds to optimize ☺
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rochrunner:
I'd say they're pretty fast: my Nexus 5 is already running Marshmallow (thought I'd have to wait for my 5x to take a look at it).
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SysAdmNj:
Interesting, are you rooted/unlocked bootloader. Wondering if you'd still get OTA updates if you were on a nexus.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rochrunner:
I don't do any rooting or unlocking on my devices; just running standard Google Android as delivered.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bblzd:
One major update every year and a bunch in between.

While it might take a couple weeks after release for users to recieve the OTA, Nexus users can always flash the update themselves within hours of release. So essentially Nexus devices means instantly available updates, often months in advance of any other device.

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] dank101:
I had MultiROM on my phone, 2 roms, AOSP+RRO and SkyDragon GPE. I was booted into my AOSP+RRO ROM on MultiROM. I was calling someone. I missdialed and tried to hang up. The screen was black and there was still audio coming out, assmuning it was a small detection bug, I tapped the screen a few times, then I hard reset it after it didn't turn the screen back on, when I hardreset, it booted straight into SkyDragon and not MultiROM, When SkyDragon booted it said my phone was encrypted. I typed in random gibber(I didn't have the phone encrypted in the first place) and it said the password was correct however my data was corrupt. It booted into TWRP to try and factory reset, TWRP could not mount /data or /data/media. I tried erasing from fastboot, however I got the error FAILED (command write failed (Bad file descriptor)).

I have tried everything I know I can do to fix this, I think it may be a hardware issue, however, before I give up hope on the device, can anyone here, anyone, help me in the recovery process, or atleast find a way to salvage what is now an expensive paperweight?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] freakshow999:
I just dealt with some weirdness with my M8 last week. Let the battery go completely dead, I mean completely. Then connect the phone to computer and wait about half an hour. If it's a Windows machine it will probably do the chime thing when it actually resets itself.

In my case it took about thirty minutes of it being connected then ding, I looked over at the phone and it said charging 1% in the off screen.

Mine just died out of the blue. It was doing weird stuff the night before and I figured I'd just so a clean flash in the morning. I woke up and it was completely dead I wasn't able to do anything with it. I bought a cheap phone since I was waiting for the new phones coming out in a month anyway.

A couple days later I was working on a couple of phones and I pulled my sim out the m8 since I was sitting at one of my computers I figured what the hell I'll plug it in just in case...

When all this happened I let it get to 15% then attempted to boot it which it did. It acting like I had wiped all the caches doing the android apps update thing at first but now it's working fine.

I really don't know if this will help you, but I hope it does... ;)
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Try booting into TWRP, pick the Wipe option, select Advanced, and try the option to format internal storage; and see if that helps.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] dank101:
/data/media IS the internal storage.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
I know. The format I suggested is a known fix for not being able to mount (corrupted) internal storage; at least in some cases.

As most are aware, Verizon released the latest version of lollipop for the Samsung note pro late last month. While the update seems to be a worth while improvement, it's not with out its quarks. The stock launcher for for the latest update is by far the the largest disappointment for me. Prior to the update, in the bottom left hand corner of the launcher, sat a very useful Google search icon. Now, Verizon saw fit to make this once useful real estate useless. Not even the smallest of widgets can utilize thus space now. This bugs me and my OcD. Anybody with the stock kitkat launcher or a vzw kitkat system dump.
