[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] fmaster12:
Hello everyone,

A few weeks ago I was running an optimized version of CM 12.1 on my TMobile Galaxy S4 (this one) http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-orig-develop/exclusive-antaresone-alucard24-s-t3066696

It was working completely fine until I downloaded and installed an OTA update for it, and ever since then my phone has been acting wonky (not sure if updating actually caused it, but it happened around the same time)

Some of the problems included:

- Phone consistently crashing/freezing. I need to reboot multiple times a day to get over it.

- Soundcloud sometimes doesn't work. Usually it just doesn't load even though I have LTE, and other times it shows the song is playing but I don't hear anything. After a hard reboot, it works temporarily. Phone also crashes occasionally when I open Soundcloud

- Youtube also sometimes doesn't work. It's the same problem where it doesn't load even though I'm in WiFi. Also crashes occasionally when I open it

- Music player sometimes doesn't play songs I have saved

After experiencing all this, I took it as an omen to upgrade my ROM so I downloaded and flashed Resurrection Remix 6.0 for my S4 and I experienced the same problems. As a final straw, I downloaded and flashed a rooted stock 4.4.2 firmware (which I'm running now). The phone doesn't crash as much thankfully but I still have problems with Soundcloud, Youtube, music player, and just persistent freezing.

My phone was fully functional and suddenly I experienced this array of problems. If anybody can help me out or point me in a right direction, I'd be incredibly grateful as I love this phone and I don't want to abandon it (well...until the S7 comes out)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] fmaster12:
Okay, thank you very much :) I'm downloading it as we speak.

I was wondering if you have any idea of what the cause of these problems are as I'm looking to experiment with more ROMs in the near future but I don't want to make the same mistake again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dirkdigles:
Can be a variety of things depending if you tweak stuff, install xposed, etc.

Generally if you make sure to do full wipes between roms you should be OK...

One more thing to check might be your microSD card. They can go bad on occasion. Try running without or with a different one and see if issues persist.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Heezy01:
i noticed this with my s4 as well, but mine has to do with the sim card error. when i'm on stock tw 4.4.4 i rarely get a sim card error. then i flash other roms and i get the sim card error more frequently. for instance i just installed the Resurrection Remix rom last night an i've already experienced the sim card error at least 6 times already. i really like this rom so i'll have to deal with it, but if it gets the error too frequently, i don't mind going back to stock KK 4.4.4.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] AeroKong:
I havent been able to watch an hd video without having to constantly refresh even on 120mb wifi. It happens with every website and app 480p and below streams fine. Stock 5.0+ touchwiz plays hd with no problems but any other rom like CM, Dirty Unicorn, or touchwiz based roms wont play. Other 4.0+ roms also play hd just fine. The only thing ive found online is to change to an alternate video player in the dev settings but that didnt work. Also full mkv bluray rips play fine on my phone. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TokedUp:
Latest OTA killed my WiFi. I dont have the receipt anymore and I might be screwed even though I only bought this tablet less than 3 weeks ago. Is there anyway to revert back to an earlier build. I'll do anything. Im not rooted or unlocked. Any help to fix this and I will donate to u I promise.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ou2mame:
It looks like they are aware of the issue so I would wait a few days before freaking out. You can always push an update from your pc or SD card if it comes to it. My gf has the k1 and hers just has an update tonight that said it was fixing wifi issues. When did you install this update? What version was it?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gumbyx84:
You should be able to get the receipt reprinted at the store you got it from if you used a credit or debit card. Worse comes to worse I'm pretty sure Nvidia would be able to tell how old the unit is.

Im gonna go back to the store I bought it at tomorrow. I used my debit card so hopefully that will work. Thanks.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffober:
I took the OTA last night and had the WiFi problem. I was able to fix it by re-flashing the staging blob (source) and rebooting.

Incidentally, I switched to Bliss 6 and had the exact same issue, and solved it the exact same way. My guess is that the OTA didn't correctly patch the blob, but after all the work I have done today to try and get myself a working tablet who knows whether that was the root problem or not.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fayded:
Can I ask how you re-flashed this .img, I have had no wifi for 2 days now and am starting to get impatient waiting for a fix. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeffober:
I downloaded the file I linked to above, rebooted the tablet into the bootloader, and flashed it with fastboot (`fastboot flash staging blob.img`). There are plenty of tutorials already explaining how to boot into your bootloader and install adb/fastboot on your computer to accomplish this, so I won't fill up the Internet by duplicating it here.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olivierzx:
I've had the same problem on my K1. (wifi)

A factory reset (launched by the android menu, not from bootloader) solved the problem.

It's long but it's normal.

Of course I had to set everything back, but my tablet was stock so I lost nothing.

Now it's rooted and everything is fine.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kettir:
What I did was download a rooted stock ROM that I was already running (cnk2). I dirty flashed it onto my tmobile s5. Surprise! OK Google Everywhere! This confirms for me that Google has deliberately killed this function on their updates, I don't know of course which updates, but I would guess very possibly the search and Google App itself.

At this point I will continue to use the un-updated Google Apps, and report back on whether this adversely affects my use of the Play Store and so on.

Anyone not using Kitkat may be able to locate a ROM that contains Google Apps old enough not to have been damaged by Google. You of course flash that at your own risk. I was already using a stock ROM and flashed the same exact ROM, original version, over my running system.

If anyone would like, I can list whatever version of system app I am using that you think might be of interest in this situation.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kettir:
Update

Yesterday my phone was getting really hot and the battery use showed that Google Apps was accounting for 16% of battery usage. I did some googling and found others were having this problem. I decided to see if updating Google play services would make a change. I updated:

Google app

Google play services

Google play store

Google text to speech

Google+

Afterward with testing, I still had Google Now Everywhere. My theory now is that an update of some kind that I have "leapfrogged" in this manner may have caused the loss of Google Now Everywhere. I can go into the Google app, select settings, and under voice/"ok google" detection/ I can still retrain the voice model and select "from any screen".
[General Questions and Answers] lextacy:
Galaxy s4 SCH i545 build ending in NK1

So I found out you cannot use CW or TWRP due to it having a locked boot loader. I installed this safestrap. Now how does this cool beast work?

1. Since its a locked bootloader, how does safestrap get on the phones partition? Does it hook into the recovery.img?

2. There is a mount option in the menu. What does it do? Why would I need it?

3. When I do a backup and try to restore , it ends in an error saying "Recovery Complete........FAIL" Is this because the partitions are not writable due to a locked bootloader?

Thank you Mr. Developer!! (hashcode)

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] webby93:
Hi there,

First off, I messed up. I've root my android phones over the years now and it came to the point I wanted to unroot my note 4 and get it back to stock.

This time I forgot to enable usb debugging before flashing to stock :crying:

So I can get into download mode, but not recovery mode. If I try to enter recovery mode I get the "firware upgrade issue, connect to kies" message. Trying to flash with odin fails, with multiple firmwares (5.0.1 and 5.1.1) and with my pit file, and trying different usb ports.

I've been googling for 4 hours now, I know how annoying it is for same old threads to be brought up, but nothing has helped me get to the bottom of it.

If someone could go through what I need to do step by step it would be much appreciated. Pretty sure there's a way of sorting it since I can at least access download mode, but I also know it may well be completely messed up.

Many thanks chaps.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] webby93:
Alright guys, looks like I've fixed it. So this is for anyone that stumbles across this thread with the same issue.

So after trying to install stock firmware from Samsung (I also used the pit file for my phone, don't think this is necessary though), and odin failing to flash it (I'll paste the odin log at the bottom of this post), I used "All samsung recovery" that I downloaded from here. http://www.4shared.com/file/bIYubEevba/All_samsung_recovery.html

Using odin v3.09, make sure your phone is in download mode and connect to the PC. Odin should recognise it's detected with a blue box.

Click AP (or PDA in earlier versions I believe) and select the All_Samsung_Recovery.tar zip file downloaded from the link above.

Might take a second to load into odin, it's not crashed be patient. And then click start.

Took my phone about 10 seconds and it was all done, just booted straight into the OS I originally tried to flash, so obviously it didn't fail like odin said.

Ok, so hopefully this will help someone. Let me know if I missed any information that I should add.

Here is the odin log when trying to flash the stock firmware originally:

Missing some important information here. Might want to mention the loss of root access and the need for LG Bridge to update, since it is not available via OTA right now to my knowledge. That could change within the day or so, however.

Downloading now through OTA, no need for LG Bridge.

Edited the OP to reflect the lost of root access.
[G4 General] Spudnubs:
Just checked on two G4's I have kicken around and no OTA yet so if some want MM right now, they will need LG Bridge.
[G4 General] Boom King:
Yes, updates through OTA are usually rolled out by s/n so the servers are not overloaded.

I manually checked on mine and it was there.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superassassin:
I'm on Sprint, stock Android 5.1... My MDN & MSID are not correct, so usually via the dialer I use ##MSL# but the screen never appears? I know I have the correct MSL, because ##DATA# works & when I choose edit mode, it accepts my MSL just fine.

On another note, from ##DATA# > 'Data Profile' > UserName (ex: blahblah@hcm.sprintpcs.com) - If I make any changes to this, it will not stick. Even though I am selecting Menu > Commit Modifications & phone reboots... any ideas why this change isn't sticking?

Does ##MSL# work for anybody else using a sprint M9 phone?

Yep phone rebooted, wiped all my data, etc. I know the MSL is correct because I can access edit screens for ##DATA#, ##DIAG#, ##786#, etc.

I'm on viperone 4.2.1.with the leaked sprint firmware.

you must install that firmware to run the rom. it won't boot otherwise
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superassassin:
Random Update: since I am not s-off, I can't run any roms that require firmware flashing, and I can't downgrade either... so I will wait for official OTA to 6.0 to hit my phone and see if that allows ##MSL# access.

I also have Sprint M8, ##MSL# works fine on it (android 5.0.2, sense 6.0, baseband 1.09.20.0209). However, I just now did an OTA update (Android 6.0, sense 7.0, baseband 1.09.20.1112) and now ##MSL# no longer works! So I'm guessing this feature must've been removed?

I am debating if I want to pay for s-off on my m9, downgrade to an early version of lollipop, and see if my theory is correct... If anyone has some insight, please fill me in!

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeremyn87:
Hi all

I followed this guide to downgrade my Android OS from 5.0.1 to 4.4.2 http://www.androidexplained.com/downgrade-lg-g3/. I did everything as suggested, used LG Flash with the D581 BIN and DLL files. The downgrade worked and I was able tto root the phone.

However, when I put in the SIM card, it says service is disabled. The card works fine (using it now on another phone), and it worked in that phone when it wad Lolipop, so it must have been the downgrade. I also checked the imei on the Tmobile site and it's fine too.

What can I do to repair it? What should I download? I'm pretty inept when it comes to all these processes, but I really want to fix this, having the phone working and rooted. I'd really appreciate any help. Even just getting it back to Lolipop would be great. Or would flashing a.custom ROM, like Cyanogenmod, end up fixing the SIM.card situation?

Thanks so much!
