What? G4 will get newer UX as G2 and G3 did. G3 got G4 look as on lollipop it was Grey and ugly. Compare how lollipop was looking and how it looks now on marshmallow. G4 will finish with 5.0+. I really want it to happen as we will get Sony like theming options and stock ROM won't be that limited

I can remember when LG went from 4.4 of the G4 to 5.X yes, they did update the UX UI but I clearly remember them not updating the UX UI to 4.0 from 5.X to 6.X. Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm 99.9% sure lol.

I'm rooted on stock N910VVRU2BPA1 with the Emotion-TW-5.1.1-nightly-r21-RC1-SM-N910P Kernel

I've been reporting that KingoRoot corrupted my phone. The symptoms were swipes lags, typing lag delays, Wi-Fi lags before it turns on and more problems. I fixed the performance problems and it is too good to be true. I went through a lot of trial and error but here is a synopsis of what I did.

I used Root Browser to change the name of every file and folder inside the efs folder. I just added a 1 to the end of the names so I could revert back if needed.

I rebooted the phone, went back to check the efs folder and it had regenerated everything I needed to keep. And it didn't load the junk files. The phone runs like it's using AdAway on steroids. give it a few minutes and it will rebuild the advertising host files. But the best part is it didn't load the spyware left behind by KingoRoot and KingRoot. That keyboard lag was probably spyware recording keystrokes and the lags navigating were probably due to conflicts between the Google host file and the spyware. I don't know for sure but Now, Even the ESPN website loads fast on Chrome. I just did this today so I'm still testing but I haven't got a phone solicitation since I've done this. I don't know if it's a side effect or what. But that would be great:cool:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NEXT: I found a fix for the Wi-Fi lag turning on and the phone forgetting the Wi-Fi password. I went to esf/carrier/HiddenMenu and changed it from off to on. Then I used the app Phone Info Samsung to do a RTN reset from Secret Codes menu. My Wi-Fi is back to normal.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I actually did the Wi-Fi fix first, then after I seen it had corrected that problem I Odin back to N910VVRU2BPA1 re-rooted, Restored my TWRP backup data then I did what I'm calling the SPYWARE FIX.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rapidswing:
Is there any evidence that Kingoroot installed spyware? I used it and haven't experienced any of the issues you've reported.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
Very nice! Is this in relation to and correct your DM-Verification problem?

Also do you know what files do not need to be in that folder/subfolders? It looks like there is a bunch of junk in mine, especially the files with very long alpha-numeric strings, but I am not that familiar with how the folder works and what may not need to be there.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] FAUguy:
What is the RTN fix for WiFi? I see it listed in the app, but not sure what it will reset.

I've been using a Note 4 Dev Edition for the past year, rooted and running MOROM. My issue is that the WiFi connection will just disconnect for no reason and it will not show any WiFi devices unless I turn it off and then back on. I have to do this a few times a day.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
I read that the RNT reset clears more personal information than a normal Factory Reset. I did it without a sim card inserted.

I fixed the performance problems but it still says DM Verification failure in stock recovery. That doesn't bother me. as long as the phone works.

Maybe you were not affected . I was
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] rapidswing:
I was just curious if there's anything specific in EFS that would indicate spyware from Kingoroot.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
I did a test and even KingRoot puts junk in the efs folder. KingoRoot is what caused my DM Verification failure.

your mileage may vary
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
Are there any specific files that either KR or KoR place in the EFS folder? I'm not familiar enough with the folder and what should or shouldn't be in there, it looks fairly junked up on my device, but then again all the files I have in there could be legit and needed.

Maybe we could all contribute to am EFS Cleanup utility to prevent the spyware mess of this convoluted rooting process? Haha.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
best day ever

This has been the best day ever as far as performance. I don't know what it was but I deleted something that was really slowing the phone down. I started with a phone that I was going to crush then make a warranty claim because it was operating so poorly. I don't need to do that now. For the record, I call some Google and Verizon software " Spyware " it was not just the rooting process. It would be interesting to find out what was in those junk files but I have seen no adverse effect by renaming them. Then after I seen they had been

regenerated

I made a backup copy then I deleted them.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
I have went ahead and used this method of renaming all files and folders inside of EFS, and it regenerated most of the folders and everything, the most marked difference was inside the SFS folder, in my old renamed folder I had about 25 files with very long alpha-numeric strings, now I only have two files in there. Can I, after backing up just in case, get rid of all of the files/folders with the 1 at the end? Will leaving them in there do anything like slightly increase RAM use, or are they just there but dormant?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
I wonder how much space is allowed in the efs partition. I ASSUME my TWRP backup could restore it if needed. Also I made a copy of the 1,'s then deleted them. I see no reason to look back. Life is good.

Do you feel the speed? I have re-deleted everything inside the efs folder several times. Every time it regenerates.

EDIT: Another benefit I,ve noticed is the time of the post is correct now on XDA before It always would show the wrong time for a post.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
Hard to say it's not placebo, but actions on the phone actually feel a bit faster, for instance the animation for unlocking the phone seems to go at a quicker speed and an already slightly laggy game itself, Star Wars Heroes, seems to run somewhat better now.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
I noticed after I deleted the files the phone asked me again for my preferences on some things and Googles targeted ads have gone away. And I haven't received phone solicitation since I've done this. I'm wondering if there was a file in there that was advertising my phone number.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] FAUguy:
So when doing the RTN Reset, you're phone is reset (like doing a factory reset) and you have to set up all your info, settings and apps in it again? If so, I would hold off doing that, as that would take me a lot of time. But I could still try the ESF folder trick and see if that helps. Since I have the Dev Edition, it is rooted without those King apps, so probably no spyware on it.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
yes it is a factory restore but you can save a lot of time with the TWRP data backup. If you're not having any Wi-Fi problems I think I'd skip it
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] FAUguy:
The only WiFi issue I have is that the phone will lose WiFi connectivity a few times a day and I have toggle it on and off. But the phone has done it on every ROM that I have tried, so it could be an issue with the hardware itself.

I did edit all the files and folders in the efs, and the phone is working a bit smoother. Before, the unlock screen was always slow and stuttering, but now it is smooth and fast.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
I don't even know why any of this is working but it is. Use your own discretion.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
After some more testing I had to undo the renaming of a few of the files and place them back in their original folders to fix VOLTE/Wifi Calling/Bluetooth that stopped working, can't find any other issues so far though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] doctor-cool:
It would be good to have a list but I've fixed two phones that I was ready to trash just by deleting everything. Last year I had Verizon remove HD calling from my account because my calls were more distorted with HD calling. I have a separate Google number and it works on Wi-Fi better than my Verizon number.

Although now with the Spyware fix my Verizon calls are clearer. And This is day three without a solicitation call. UNREAL
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] NeoandGeo:
Nice! Is there a way to get VOLTE without turning on the HD Calling function? With it turned off my phone calls go to 1x mode and I can't do any data related functions while on the phone. Maybe something is messed up on my end configuration wise that only allows that functionality with it turned on?

Second note anyone have any idea what all the files in the SFS folder are? I had almost 20, now down to 4 and everything is working as it should.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] camelboots:
Hi,

I used a very long time xtrestolite 2.2 rom with my G900F. For me the best rom, but a little bit old. So I try many custom MM roms, but I went always back to xtrestolite 2.2. Yesterday I flashed the first time the MM stock rom, but I am not satisfied and I went back to xtrestolite (at first flashing old bootloader and modems, then twrp and autoroot. But now after each rebooot it takes about ten minutes or more, till all apps (for example Notification shortcuts, boeffla configuration, sync emails and more) are ready to start. Why? I have the first time these problems and I think, I flashed my G900F about 50 times in the last year.

Do you have an idea why. Thanks.

Problem was solved: After flashing the stock MM rom I flashed a custom MM rom. At least I install the xtrestolite 2.2 backup over titanium backup und all was good.

[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rhp07:
Hi, I was just wondering if it's possible to overclock the Moto G 2014. I'm running the latest Turbo ROM (http://goo.gl/CAeRWA).

I've seen previously that in Halogen Kernel (http://goo.gl/IpoBjm) was stated that it can OC the CPU to 1.6 GHz. But in the Halogen Kernel post (http://goo.gl/YPJpyR) it's stated that the hardware of the Moto G 2014 doesn't support overclocking it's CPU.

Why I need CPU OC? I'm testing a realtime app which is highly bound to the CPU clock, and it's sweet spot is between 1.2GHz-1.3GHz to work fluently.

So I was wondering if somebody could explain me if it's possible to OC the CPU of the Moto G 2014 or not. And if possible if there is a Kernel with OC that supports Turbo ROM.

Greetings and thanks.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pg8286:
Well it is possible to OC moto g 2014. I have seen it done by one of my colleague with Magnifico Kernel. However you can try it with stellar kernel. Just make sure you read about the kernesl and study well before performing an operation.

i just installed this and my phone rebooted, whats the next step to getting HTC Rom on my phone?

also, how do i install .cabs? where do i upload them

ive read the stickies and wiki but its all confusing, can someone just explain it in laymans terms
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] SuperRob:
All HardSPL does is unlock the ROM portion of your phone so that you can load new ones from any provider. Now you have to download the ROM that you want to load, and follow the instructions.

As far as getting cabs onto your phone, there are a lot of ways to do it, but the easiest is to connect to ActiveSync, Click the Explore button on the ActiveSync window, and copy the cabs someplace where you can easily find them (I put them in the root of my Storage Card). Then open File Explorer on your phone, navigate to that directory, and tap the cab. That will start the installer.

If you're having this much trouble doing this, though, I'd advise against loading a custom ROM and things of that nature. While it's possible to recover from a mistake, it might be beyond your proficiency level.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] jgermuga:
If you are asking how to install a CAB, IMHO, you should not be trying to flash your ROM.

A CAB is like a setup.exe on windows. Just copy the file to your device and open it to start the install process.

Seriously, I know it is hard figuring out all the info, and I don't even claim to know as much as I should after doing several ROM flashes on 3 different devices, but I do know it is possible to get you phone into an unusuable state for which none of the sellers will provide support for. Basically, you are on your own, and I can sya you will be hard pressed to get help without learing the ropes like the people in the know had to do. So basically, keep reading...

Hey guys, I have an old(release day, wooo) ATT GS4, the screen completely gave out, and it's been shelved for a while. My mom just gave me an old USCC GS4, and it has a perfectly functional screen, I was just wondering if anyone knows if the screens are compatible. I don't need to have a working GS4 for anything specific, I'd just like to have an unlocked one for my collection, and I've heard the USCC ones are still not unlockable. And anyway I'd rather have the ATT one, just because it would be fun to still have my same launch day phone from way back when. This is purely a novelty project for me, as I'm going to be using something more modern for daily use, but it was historically one of my favorite phones.

First file looks like apps with an hashcode.

Unfortunately I did not found an app or possibility to monitor the folder to identify the app which creates this files (similar software like filemon for windows). How do I identify the app which creates this.

Antivirus Apps and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware did not find any harmfull apps or files. And the mentioned app Xender (see referred post above) seems not be installed on my LG G5.
