[Q] What's wrong with my phone's display? topic

Hello

I got a new Galaxy s5, an update i was pretty happy with considering the last phone i had was a galaxy s2. I got relatively cheap, too (200 euros). Though, after i began using it more, i noticed that the display above where the keyboard should be is a bit dimmer than the keyboard section, and in white screens you can easily see permanent marks of the keyboard keys. Why are these pixels engraved in my screen? IS there a way to fix it without having to buy a new display? I was thinking about doing a dead pixel fix using an app/video, but i didn't want to cause anymore damage without some research first.

Official Vs Unofficial? Whats the difference? topic

I look through the Dev forum here and I see a host of lollipop builds, some claiming to be official, some claiming to be unofficial, most seem to be derivative of CM12.

So Just what is the difference between an Official ROM and an Unofficial ROM?

Surely the only "Official" CM12 ROM is from https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=t0lte (for the n7105)?

[Q] what's the difference between carriers versions of the same Lollipop? topic

I've got an unlocked gsm h8 that I'm using on the german o2 network. When I bought the phone, I thought that "unlocked" is the equivalent of "unbranded". However, after the Lollipop update I noticed that I got the T-Mobile version of the OTA, 4.19.111.2. Indeed, the CID of the phone is T-MOB101.

There is no obvious bloat on the phone, unless you count fm radio. But perhaps I just don't know what is there from the Telekom and what's from HTC. Moreover, other carriers, for example O2 seem to have the "higher" ROM version numbers, 4.20.xxx.x. What is the difference betwern them? Is there any point on spending time and effort to switch the CID and convert from T-Mobile to O2 or any other version? Is the "truly unbranded" version 4.16.xxx.x any different? They all seem to be Android 5.0.1, but then what do those numbers in ROM versions stand for?

"Official" Lollipop N9005 - What's wrong with you Samsung?? topic

Hi,

I decided to write about my opinion, maby someone can ansewer me.
We have wait a long tiome for official LP rom. Ok, we've had a Leak (quite nice it was i must say) - but with some little issues.
"Now", when OFFICIAL rom is out, same issues i've found in the rom. So? Nothing has changed? =/ What's wrong with Samsung?
I've:
1. No time setting's in Interruptions - still !
2. Green "like" screen - i sometime get green "aplha 50%" like acreen, need to turn off, wait about few seconds and it usually goes to normal.
3. No Tabs in Chrome ?! (or i can't figure it how to lunch it) :D
4. Light sensor problems - very often my screen is set to minimum (in auto mode) - i have to klick it to manual, then slide to max and finaly change it to auto. (in maximum sunlight i cant do anything because of that)
5. And i found that i can't save (device is not saving) Edited Photos. (via Samsung Photo Editor) ??!! [on leak it was ok!]

So... conclusion? Is this "official" isn't just an earlier simply renamed Leak ?
What's wrong? Now it's time to say to KNOX "good bye" and switch to CustomRoms - I'm surprised that I was able to withstand so many time :D

PS. Can anyone give a clue about nice stabile TW custom rom (Lollipop) with most od N4 options? where abowe issues work nice and smoothly :)

All the best !
Nick

[Q] cm 11 vs cm 12 what's the difference? topic

Hi , I'm entirely new to this rooting & custom rom thing I have the sony xperia m c1904 model. Since sony stopped updating it any further from Android 4.3 I've been researching a little & found a little about cyanogenmod developers so what exactly cyanogenmod 12 differs from cyanogenmod 11 . I've heard it's still in beta or nightly stage so what's more I'll get apart from android 5.0 why cyanogenmod 12 matters? Please explain.....

What's quickest way to get unlock code for At&t N6 topic

I am looking to purchase an At&t branded N6 for use on Vzw...I've done the research and I know for sure that it will work. I also know that I need to get an unlock code for it to be able to work. What is the quickest way to receive a code without having to pay a fee? Thank you so much for your help.

P.S. The seller inserted a Vzw nano Sim to see what would happen, and it immediately asks for the code...does that mean it's already unlocked n all I need is the code? Or does unlocking and activation all happen in one step once the code is entered?

[Q] What's the next step? topic

Hi,

This is my first time doing this and I've been doing pretty good until I get to this stage where I got the status 7 error while installing zip file cm-11-20140217-NIGHTLY-d2spr.zip. I want to transfer other files (cm-11-20140203-NIGHTLY-d2spr.zip) to my phone but when I reboot, the logo still stuck on "Samsung Galaxy S III"...

I am still able to go into PhilZ Touch 6 CWM Base version 6.0.4.5 but I don't really know what to do from there. The files I have currently in my phone are:
DE-SAMSUNGNIZER_KNOX_REMOVAL_SCRIPT_V1.0.zip
UPDATE-SuperSU-V1.93.zip
cm-11-2014-0217-NIGHTLY-d2spr.zip
pa_gapps-stock-4.4.2-20131230-signed.zip

What I did was:
1. Rooted my phone using Odin and verified that my phone was root via RootChecker app.
2. I went to "Wipe Data/Factory Reset" and chose the option to "Clean to Install a New ROM".
3. Then I received the error Status 7 message
4. Reboot and it also said "Root access is missing. Root device?" then either option (yes or no), still stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S III.

My phone is Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III 4.4.2, SPH-L710 and I followed the instruction from this website: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2596697

Your assistance is greatly appreciated! Thank you.
