[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idoit:
On my Mega 6.3 I527M, I just received a notification for a security patch (screenshot attached). The notification is annoying as it's a consistent one, it's always there. I was wondering if it's safe to let it be installed?! I'm asking this because, I don't want to lose my root. For my phone, I gained root with my much difficulty and anticipation! It's still Knox 0x0 which is important to me and rooted. It's all good. So, if letting this patch be installed won't affect my rooted phone, please let me know I'll do it. If not, is there any way to get rid of this notification? It says patch downloaded... where Android stores these downloads so I can take a look?

I'm willing to install this patch 'manually' too, if it's possible?

What's up with XDA?!!! I believe this is my 4th thread that gets no attention and goes unanswered!

Some help is appreciated!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] idoit:
Well, it was so annoying that I stubbornly let it install the patch. It rebooted and went to the recovery screen (stock recovery, as I don't have custom ROM or custom recovery)... But in the middle of operations, it gave error (without any details).

And I used find command based on the size to look for the update/patch file through whole file system but didn't find anything worthy!

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haistas:
Hello Guys!

my mature language isnt English so pleeease be patient!

I bought 25 days ago a Galaxy s6 edge+ (G928F) and i sold my Note4.

i went to my carrier shop and build a new nano-sim to fit with this phone.

i used this phone for some days and i realised that i have some lost calls.

and when i am with 4g(LTE) my carrier data connection is tooooo slow...

i made some experiments with my galaxy tabs 8.4" and i realised that

the tablet is very faster than edge+

please check this video here ---> vid31.photobucket.com/albums/c393/nick_p/Mobile%20Uploads/20150930_013114_zpspzrlw6fd.mp4

(please add hhtp:// ) sorry for that xda. i am a new member.

as you can see the 2 devices are with same carrier ,same place , same test server at same time.

i did that experiment with a game into playstore. i tried to download NFS in both devices. the tabs

already downloaded 120MB and the edge+ only 15mb.

i went to official samsung service my edge+ and they told me that the device pass all the tests succesfully.

but the problem was there. i went again into service and they replaced all the main board.

(i dont know if it had any problem...maybe they change it just to satisfied me)

BUT the problem remains.....do you have any idea guys??? :(

So it is an improvement. My WiFi hasnt improved though. Itsa about 1.27mbps on the download
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haistas:
hmmm maybe it is an improvement.or it was lucky strike...

mine diference was huge as you saw in the video i uploaded.

i spoke with my carrier and they told me that my location hasnt good 4g.

i want to try another nanosim from the same carrier in my device and

i want to try my nanosim in other device..:eek:
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lightydo:
Hi,

I downloaded the SM-N910F kernel from samsung compiled and burned it with Heimdall. It works fine.

The problem I am facing is when I add some code into the kernel. It won't boot (returns do DOWNLOAD mode screen), error message "could not do normal boot".

Note: I have tried burning my boot.img both with Heimdall (linux) and Odin (windows), and get the same results, i.e. unmodfied kernel works fine, modified -- fails.

It seems to be a zImage size issue.

I tested this by only adding lots of seq_print(m ,"something somthing ....") in print_binder_transaction() (drivers/stagin/android/binder.c). just to make the zImage bigger (unmodified zImage size: 9792000 bytes, bloated zImage 9799072 bytes, only ~7Kb more).

I checked the with busybox fdisk the BOOT partition size, its 17MB.

I pulled the boot.img with dd from the device and used "abootimg -u boot.img -k ../arch/arm/boot/zImage" to update it with my compiled zImage.

any ideas?

missing info?

Thanks,

Daniel.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lightydo:
ok, solved the problem. used unpackbootimg & mkbootimg to create the new boot.img. works fine...

is it possible to install a ssh app on the nvidia, if its rooted

so i can access remotely via macbook to transfer / copy files?
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jervine:
I would suggest sideloading SSHDroid, which can operate in root and non-root (ports above 1024). You'll possibly (i.e. definitely) have to fiddle round with mouse and/or keyboard to get it to work the way you want though. Oddly the unlocker 'key' app wouldn't side load for me, so I don't get the unlocked benefits (and yes, I've paid for the unlocker).

[Thinkpad Tablet General] :
if what you need is the stock rom of the kitkat one it was already given to you

i have no knowledge of an available (YET) official lollipop stock rom for your model, but going up to Lollipop can always be done by taking the OTA after a KitKat stock rom flash, so this is not an issue if you are on KitKat

the problem is when your tab is already on Lollipop and you want to go back to stock KitKat (to stay there or to take the Lollipop OTA), if you just flash the KitKat rom you will softbrick on the first reboot after flashing kitkat because your tab would try to boot a kitkat system from a lollipop leftover initialisation system, this can be solved too with some minimal effort/knowledge but as you told already you don't know how to use a terminal so i would suggest that you keep waiting (or just play a little to learn a minimal knowledge of android flashing tools).

or wait some more so i somebody will pack an all-in-one flash stock KitKat rom package for your model with the bios downgrade (Lollipop to KitKat) included

i don't think Lenovo would ever release a KitKat stock rom flashable directly from Lollipop (this would go against their upgrade/one way policy)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muaygirl12:
I have a nexus 5 ( marshmallow). I have (stupidly) dropped it twice and the screen is quite damaged. When I receive or make a call the screen goes black. I can't access the touchpad, speaker etc. Very annoying. I am replacing the screen now but the question I have is whether I also need to replace the proximity sensor.

Is it related to my issue? Or will replacing the screen fix everything? The person that is replacing the screen is charging an extra £10 for the sensor if he can do both together. He says if it turns out I need the sensor afterwards it will cost £40 so I would rather do it in one go if I need to.

I have installed the Proximity Screen Off app but it makes no difference.

Thanks
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dechronic:
There is a known issue with the proximity sensor not working correctly in Marshmallow for the Nexus 5 it is especially noticable when making or receiving calls.

You can see the complaints from other Nexus 5 users here https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/nexus/oqh-V37hgDM

This doesn't mean that your proximity sensor isn't damaged but the issue doesn't occur on Lollipop. If you can revert to Lollipop temporarily to test before you make your decision would be a better way to test if there is a problem with the sensor.

True. Samsung sucks on updates.

Having said that, the only thing I miss from lollipop on my tablet is the smart clip feature. Almost everything else is available through third party app, root and Xposed. It's still one of the greatest tablets on the market. Which is the good thing about Samsung - the hardware is majorly future proof.

I wish they'd update the spen and snote features independent of system updates. Would make life so much easier.

Samsung has way too many devices out and therefore does only support the ones that have the biggest impact. Though I like to see at least 5.1.1 officially supported I feel it is wishful thinking and also made me turn my back on Samsung all together and I will enjoy the rest of it's life with a community ROM. (Although I did notice the developer just announcing he is stopping). It does run fine with 4 4.2 as well so 18 more months and I will allow myself a better supported tablet

I love this tablet, it is great in pretty much every aspect, except internal memory. I wished it could've been available in 64 and 128 GB variants, but it is what it is.

UPDATES though is the point where Samsung sucks. I'm running Marshmallow already on my Nexus 7 tablet (it's great by the way, smoother and faster than Lollipop) and only about to get Lollipop on this tablet. What the F... Samsung?!

I think it would be great to get Marshmallow to this tablet but I have a gut feeling that it is never going to happen :(

Yes it will, when pigs fly square circles around my living room....

But seriously, this tablet is now 2 years old(close enough), the agreement was to keep updated for 18 months... Be thankful we got 5.1.1 and not the less desirable 5.0 with its memory leaks and other problems...
[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KruseLudsMobile:
Typically on long business trips I like to use Google maps navigation. At the same time I have music on my phone (mp3's) playing through bluetooth. It's great because the music goes quiet when there are directions for turns (as well as phone calls) coming in. So, when I am using the Google navigation however, I am unable to scroll through songs or contacts to select music or someone to call - using the console in the car. That DOES WORK however, when I am not using the Google navigation (but only if I disconnect and then reconnect the bluetooth). So is this a limitation of the phone, or the Bluetooth standard?

[Ascend Mate 7 Original Android Development] hadid90:
Hello everyone,

I think what i want to see for my huawei ascend mate 7 dual sim 32Gb is a pure marshmallow rom !

Before my huawei i had a nexus 4 .. It was amazing the number of roms and cuztomizations that we had on that device. But not on the huawei.

Cyanogenmod, MIUI and AOKP either doesnt support the mate 7 or they are poorly ported and unusable !

I hope a team would work on making a nexus 6P port available and working on our mate 7 !

Thank you
[Ascend Mate 7 Original Android Development] Tazmaniiac:
Well sorry to say that but this phone has a very weak modding and developing scene, I guess we won't see something like that..

Let's just hope that Huawei makes a decent Marshmallow rom for early 2016 :/

But I think this phone is nice even on Kitkat, I still don't see any reason to update to L, so if you have anything that you dislike try to fix it with root/xposed and all that kind of stuff

before driving yourself crazy while waiting for a AOSP rom :)
[Ascend Mate 7 Original Android Development] hadid90:
I just would like to see this nice phone running a pure android rom .. The last lollipop rom (B324) is way more better than kitkat .. Way smoother, more stable and the battery life increased (deep sleep just got better).

I put my device on normal power plan (no battery saving) .. i only protect chatting apps to run while the screen is off .. the result is a nice performance/smoothness with an increased battery life. (the smart power plan is not really smart) "i just wanted to share this"

Back to the thread, like i said before, i think this device would even run better on pure android .. way better ! my phone is rooted, i use google now launcher, i wish i can chance the notification bar to the lollipop notificatio bar, becuz i hate to swipe left and right to alter between the notifications and the shortcuts.

I hate everything customized by huawei except the camera app :P

thanks
[Ascend Mate 7 Original Android Development] Tazmaniiac:
yeah I unterstand what you mean..

but if you have not noticed yet: if you pull notification bar on the left you will get to the notification panel, and if you swipe down on the right you get the shortcuts. If you prefer to use your phone one handed then you won't really benefit from that, but if you use your phone with 2 hands like I do most of the time it will be useful.
[Ascend Mate 7 Original Android Development] hadid90:
haha it s not just about that .. the official notification bar is 100% better .. smoother and more appealing :D .. also i really wish i can have a light pure android experience on the mate 7 :) it s shameful that such good device didnt get a better xda treat :)
