[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] douger1957:
Mine is an unlocked Retail Edition. My concern was that there are too many people here that flash stuff indiscriminately when they don't know what they're doing then think someone else can bail them out of their jam.

I've been on two HTC phones and the S4 and none of them required goofing with bootloaders. The Note 4 is unique in my experience because there's a bootloader for each edition of Android. I'm not a developer but I suspect that is part of Samsung's effort to lock the thing down.

My experience with the rooted Note 4 is from Lollipop up. I can't help you with regards to your desire to flash KitKat. I don't know if you'll need a KitKat bootloader or not. Almost all of the "old timers" are gone to greener pastures. You can still dig around that subforum. You can also go here, but you'll be on your own getting carrier data and perhaps wifi to work.

My problem with PD1 was that I could only get bluetooth to work up to a distance of about five feet or so. PF3 seemed to fix that. Otherwise, I've noticed no other difference.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weaverinva:
Yes Samsung is different and I have the retail like you. I've rooted rommed and kernel Droid, three HTCs, the Note 3, and now the Note 4.

I agree that people need to be careful.

I have successfully re unlocked the bootloader, and I have flashed a kitkat rom. Before or after the flash a person would need to flash the ANJ kernel and modem. Either missing will cause a boot loop. Things are working nicely. We'll see if I end up on kitkat or marshmallow. I had my Note 3 so honed with Amplify, Greenify, and the AllianceROM that marshmallow may not add that much for me.

Yes, I've looked at the snapdragon area as well. So many things to try but I just don't have the time.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johan Agonda:
Hello everybody,

Been looking for a while for a GPS based location and directions app that has the following functionality

1. Pinpoint any location on a map and save the location by giving it a unique ID (alphanumeric)

2. Share this ID with your friends using the same app by sending this ID via the app or email or sms.

3. Users use this ID for location and/or directions instead of typing the entire address or GPS coordinates.

4. App can use google maps or Nokia maps or other maps.

Please suggest some apps with similar functionality.

Much appreciated.

hi,

My sd card is recognized in twrp but in OS the sd card stop to work after a certain amount of time. I have to remove the battery and unmount/mount.

it's my sd card or the os ?

what can I do ? reformat ?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPhoenixFF4:
I don't know what's going on with this thing, but basically the only mode I can get into is Download Mode, and if I try to flash something using LGFlashTool or LGUP, it stops at 6% and says that communication failed with the phone. I'm not sure what to do next, as I've tried different methods of flashing it, and different flashing programs, and keep getting the same result.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPhoenixFF4:
Okay, just to give a bit more info:

When I first got it, I tried to root the phone to install TWMP, but rooting didn't work (not a surprise). For some reason, it DID overwrite my recovery partition, but without the rooting I couldn't even get to it. So the phone itself at this point could only be put into Download mode and regular Android mode. I then tried flashing the stock Bell firmware onto the phone, to try and get it to go back to default. This worked, but it failed at 99% and when I tried to load it, it stuck at the Android Update screen (the one with the green Android robot and the blue bar showing progress), on all modes except Download Mode. Then, when I tried to flash another firmware onto it, flashing failed at 6% saying that it lost connection to the device, and it's been doing that for any attempt to do anything in Download Mode since. No other modes work; they all freeze on the Android Update screen.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sly117:
I am having the same problem with my lg g3 i can get in twrp mode tho but there is 0mb in all my folders even external sd card wich has stock ROM but it won't read it, always seeing E: unable to mount /data /storage.. lg flash tool gets stuck at 6% like you & when i try adb flash it just stays at waiting for devices..
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPhoenixFF4:
Yep, just had the same thing happen to me. Can get into TWRP, but can't mount anything, and trying to re-flash the device using Download Mode fails in the same way. Does yours claim it's the old Kitkat install as well?

Update: TWRP is claiming that /system, /data and /cache don't exist at all. The block devices are not listed in /dev (in fact, /dev/block/platform doesn't exist at all). I can't flash the phone; it always freezes at 6% with a communication error. LGUP claims that the current firmware is D85210B, when it was D85220K. I don't know what's going on, and I'm at my wit's end.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jahanzaibawan:
Are you using usb 2.0 port and correct dll file.?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPhoenixFF4:
Well, it worked the first few times I tried it; I actually tested it out by flashing stock MM, and then flashing stock Lollipop again. It all worked 100%.

Update: I specifically made sure to plug it into one of the motherboard's USB 2.0 ports. Still crashes at 6%. The step in particular is LAF INFO.

As for the DLL file, I'm using LGUP_8974.dll, which as far as I know is the correct one for D852 Bell/Virgin.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jahanzaibawan:
It seems as if your board were changed. or dll is causing the problem.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sly117:
yes same thing... i had lolipop too, i spent countless hours trying different ways to fix it but twrp won't mount /data so nothing works! I'm about to give up...
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkPhoenixFF4:
What do you mean, my board was changed? As in the physical board? Because I know that's not the case.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KyouKeiKen:
So I followed this guide on youtube > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNasUYszh4Q

that taught me how to install the CyanogenMod 5.1.1 and everything works well besides the GPS issue as the GPS (Device) doesn't work properly on Pokemon Go.

I read that I would have to use these fastboot commands to fix these issues but however I get the "<waiting for device>" after typing in the fastboot erase modemst1 command.

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

I typed in "adb reboot bootloader" command in Minimal ADB and Fastboot PC app & I get a downloading screen on my S2 as the result of it so I don't think it's my PC drivers issue.

So would I have to try a new custom rom to fix this or is there an another way to fix this issue? Thanks in regards
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PTP012:
I have a problem with my HTC one M8 At&t (It's unlocked to any provider) it's also rooted so if you can help me either unroot it or add a ROM that would be so helpful.

Well the problem with my phone is.

1) It won't update to 6.0 its stuck on 5.0.2

2) ROMS won't install at all. Maybe because it doesn't have TWRP (I don't know where to get that)

3) The phone is S-on relocked and it says "This device has been tampered' then a warning

I asked HTC and they didn't help at all. I asked people that I know but they are IOS.

So this is the last resort. I was recommended by a friend to ask you wonderful people. I mean i have some knowledge but it don't have anyone to show me the ropes of how to do it. But please if you guys can help add link with steps.

Thank you and have a good day dudes.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ragarianok:
I'd suggest you watch this video to install TWRP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HWj_1KHbuY

And then I'd also recommend installing CM13 since it's really stable. It can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-0-nightlies-htc-one-t3256696
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
1. If it is AT&T, it won't update on non-AT&T network.

2. Unlock bootloader and install TWRP

3. The phone was unlocked before and now it is relocked.

Post fastboot getvar all without serial & imei no to confirm which device variant that you have and what to do with it.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I would suggest the OP

not

follow that video. Followed literally, it will not only direct the OP to install a horribly obsolete version of TWRP, but also one that is

not intended for his version of the M8

. The "wlv" version TWRP in the video is for Verizon, and would install TWRP to the wrong partition, maybe even brick the phone. TWRP has since been updated and unified to identify the M8 version, and install on the proper partition accordingly; but such was not the case at the time the video was created.

This is one of the main reasons I don't recommend rooting by watching YouTube videos. They aren't detailed enough to point out all the nuances and potential pitfalls of the process. They just spoonfeed enough knowledge to you get you into big trouble, without any knowledge or skills to get you out of that hole.

Also, the random "root" website referenced in the video doesn't appear to have any downloadable files any longer, anyway. At least not that I can find, upon examination. So if the OP that route, they would have hit a dead end. I also personally don't recommend such "root" websites, as they almost always just steal content from XDA, without giving proper credit.

All the info the OP needs is right here on XDA. An excellent guide for unlocking the bootloader and installing custom recovery is here. Although the guide is dated (hard for anything for this phone to

not

be dated at this point - it is over 2 years old) and I have the following additional advice:

- HTC drivers on the guide are dated. But if you plug the phone into your PC, it should auto-install HTC Sync and the required drivers

- You can get TWRP right from the source here. I'm not sure if your existing firmware will play well with the latest version (TWRP 3.0.x), but I'm pretty sure version 2.8.7.0 will work well (and known to be very stable).

- Only need to follow the guide through "ROOTING YOUR DEVICE" Step 8, that is unlocking the bootloader and installing custom recovery (don't flash SuperSU). From there, get the desired custom ROM on the phone, boot into TWRP, backup the current stock ROM, then do default wipe (data, cache, Dalvik) in TWRP and flash the ROM.

---------- Post added at 10:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 AM ----------

An alternative would be to flash the Marshmallow RUU to update to full stock image. But in order to do so, the OP will have to update to Marshmallow firmware (which requires some knowledge of using fastboot) and then run the Marshmallow RUU. The RUU in listed on my AT&T M8 Index thread here (along with a lot of other useful info), with the info/link for flashing firmware highlighted in red text.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samep:
Samsung driver installed? Do you have any open KIES or Samsung Smart Switch apps open? They should be closed first.

If you're using Windows 10, run as administrator is NOT required. But all other Windows versions SHOULD be ran as administrator with a right click on the Odin .exe file for app launch.

You seem to get to write and fail in Odin. Could be bad USB cable or missing the data lines in it. Original Samsung cable or a Motorola USB cable should work. Try another PC USB port as well. Rear port is often recommended but should be USB 2.0 compatible.

When and if it fails again, check your phone's display for additional information. It's a common failure in our forum for users to flash with reactivation lock enabled. But you could verify in Settings/Security that reactivation lock is disabled.

I prefer a md5 to verify my download but on the case of Chainfire downloads, download twice and check the md5 of both for matching md5. You could have a bad download.

Just typical things to check.

Since you mentioned wanting to remove bloat, have you considered just getting a package disabler from Google Play? I don't use them or know where to get a free one but here's one on sale with 7 day guaranteed refund.
