[Q] Two questions about 5.0 ROMs topic

Hi,
I'm currently on stock 5.0 ROM (Simple ROM) but I prefer pure Android UI. I've got two questions:

1. Is there any fully-working and stable 5.0 ROM?


2. I'm on KK bootloader and TWRP 2.8.5.1 w/ Bump. Do I have to do anything if I want to flash non-LG 5.0 ROM?

[Q] New m8 and want to and s-off, lots of questions! topic

Hello all,
I'm new to the m8 and Verizon, but not rooting and s-off. I own a Sprint m7 that is rooted and s-off running numerous custom ROMs and I'm wondering is there a big difference between the two? Let me explain why I ask. Where I'm from there isn't a Verizon or Sprint so I don't deal with the bloat and special doodads carrier branded devices impose, I just root and remove unwanted junk. With this new m8 it seems more complicated to me about setting up if I install a custom ROM. I didn't have to worry about new ROMs on the m7 besides permanently bypassing HFA and other bloat, restored my titanium backup and went from there.
Are there any special things I have to do, like activation from initial setup or will it be like my m7, where I didn't need to worry since my carriers info was programmed into the and it stuck without reprogramming carrier settings?
Will I have to call Verizon and blow my cover of being rooted and s-off, and why does Verizon have control over unlocking boot loader?
Thank for your time, I'm pretty sure I'll have more questions later.

[Q] Lenovo A8 A806 Golden Warrior - Questions topic

I am thinking about ordering this phone from etotalk.com, but before I do I need some more information about it and the company I am ordering it from.

Does this phone have App2SD support?
I already read that it can be rooted and unlocked, does the Etotalk Mod ROM fix all the localization issues?
Will it read all sorts of SIM Cards (eg. European)?
Any probable Signal issues in Europe? (more accurately: Croatia)
Personal opinions about this phone?

I like it because it is cheap and has great performance. It has a custom Android Version though, but as long as Play Store Apps are compatible, I'm fine with it.

Thank you in advance for your replies and opinions.

[Q] How to go from CM12 to stock Z1 firmware, and other questions topic

Hi all!

I've mostly used CM11, but it never really felt super polished. Now with CM12 the UI is much better, but since it's fairly beta there are more little irritations. Since I've never really used the stock firmware I thought I'd give that a try instead to have all of the original features work.

Just to be clear; would I simply use FlashTool in Flash Mode to flash the correct .ftf file? Is there a way to keep all my apps and data? (I'll take a backup to be sure in any case.)

Also, is there a way to use Privacy Guard or something equivalent with the stock firmware?

Thanks for the help :)

[Q] LG E975: build CM 12 - heap of questions topic

Greetings to all!

In general there is device LG E975, collect for it Cyanogenmod 12.
Questions:

1. There is a folder vendor/device/lge/e975 (from it all is copied in/system), resources after a command make are replaced on standard, for example/system/bin/dhcpcd. How to correct?


2. At usage make-jx all files are compiled in system.img instead of cm12/out/target/product/e975/system, because of it there is no possibility to correct resources. How it too to correct? The block assembly is disconnected in makefile.


3. Than differs make otapackage from make updatepackage?


4. What drivers and libraries are responsible for the camera in LG E975?


5. We admit there is other kernel, want to replace it with the where what to correct that kernel Solid_Kernel instead of a sink of kernel Cyanogenmod 12 gathered?

Just Got my OPO Initial Questions & Concerns [PLEASE LOOK] topic

So, just received my new OPO yesterday in the mail. Immediately I unlocked it and rooted it. Then I went into doing some research about which ROM/kernel combination is the best on this forum. I don't know too much about flashing and all of that so I didn't want any ROMS that were too different from the vanilla (stock) lollipop look and feel. I've watched videos and flashed CM12 nightlies (including installing CyanDelta, to update the nightlies) and the AK kernel which a lot of people have been using. I have a couple questions for you and would appreciate it if you could respond to each of them stated bellow:

1. The camera on this ROM seems to be pretty poor. The stock camera app (not the google camera app) takes pictures but the quality is poor. I'm coming from an iphone 5 which had a worse spec'd camera but the performance was better. I'm guessing its the software behind IOS that made it good. But is there a ROM or something i could do to improve the camera's image quality? It looks good before taking it but after wards when i go back to look at the photo it comes out terribly blurry. I need to figure this out and see if its a defect in my unit or if its normal.

2. Which ROM/kernel do you suggest as something stable. I want one with good battery life but still gives me buttery smooth performance. I also want it as stock lollipop as possible. I'm currently running CM12 nightly (2/21) with AK kernel as stated before. And which kernel settings do you suggest?

3. I use WugFresh's bacon tool kit to flash roms and to root and everything and i was wondering if there was a way to have an app automatically install roms and kernels for me. I've heard of Titanium Backup but i'm not too familiar with its features. Can you suggest a program or app that would make the process simple and user friendly?


Before flaming me please understand that I HAVE read through many posts and ROMS and would personally like to have my questions answered in one complete post.

Thank you!

[Q] questions before I install topic

Hello all,

I got my nexus 7 grouper a few days ago and I'm planning on installing it in a Mitsubishi and I just have a couple questions before I perm-install it. Yes I have been searching and researching just wondering if theres any new info .

1 what is better pogo charging or usb y cable? i can print a small mount for the pogo pins i'm just curious if it's worth it.

2 what should I be charging at? i've seen posts about the random cables not charging. so I've been testing a few and the odd thing is its hit and miss in the car im suspecting the modded adapter is the problem but with gps on music on and the screen on the most ive seen is 200-300 ma charging based on the battery monitor widget app. The adapter puts out 3 amps but the cable doesn't seem to like it. so sometimes it will charge good and sometimes it will discharge.

3 is there any advice on installing? I think I'm ok but I just want to make sure I do it right. I still need my buck converter and my hub

4 is a DAC worth it? I think my audio is ok without but i do hear clipping in the radio when i use the tablet im thinking thats noise from the jack would a DAC solve this?

[Q] Going to buy this phone, need some questions answered. topic

I will not be doing any rooting and no customs roms.

Model no - SM-N750

1. How does the perform after all the stock updates to this date? I know touchwiz is laggy but apart from that, does the phone hang while mild multitasking?

2. Heard the phone has overheating issue? (any comments on this)

3. People reporting about the phone restarting on its own, randomly or while charging?

4. How bad is the screen flickering? I think the fix is somewhere in the fourms.

5. Is there all the (note 3) s pen features on (note 3 neo), or is it a cut down thing, like reduced pressure senstivity or something?

[Q] Auto closing apps and small questions (Huawei Ascend ) topic

Hi guys i'd like to tell you my problem which is is auto closing apps.... iv been playing games like worms 3 and real boxing on my Huawei ascend Y511...
And the the problem im facing is that while playing my games often (one or two others too) auto close on their own.... they dont crash but instead they just close automatically.... at first i thought its a ram issue but iv been running games like fifa 14 and dead space and they seem to run just fine...... so what kind of issue is this and how can i fix it ?
Also i would like to know is there any way to boost or amplify 3G signals on your phone ?
Another issue in facing is that apparentlt while downloading apps from the playstore it says that my device has insufficient memory... i have 200 mb on internal and about a gb free on my sd but it gives me the same error on both ...
I can still download apk files for that app and run em just fine but the playstore error annoys me alot ....
Also is there anyway i can speed up my startup and booting process and also have more ram free on my phone so it runs smoother....
Lol im sorry for these overload of questions but sadly xda doesnt have any section for my phone so yes please help wherever you can ill be really glad :D my phones rooted btw

[Q] Tmobile Galaxy S5 root without triggering knox, warranty, lollipop questions topic

Going to cut it as short as I can, and I'll probably sound like a noob and annoying at the same time. Can I root my Galaxy S5 T-Mobile 4.4.2 G900TUVU1CNK2 without triggering knox? I don't want to touch anything (no rom or loader or anything) - I just want it to be rooted so I have some access.

If that can't be done, can I root and yet still send back to T-Mobile as a warranty replacement without them charging me?

If I were to root, can I still use the OTA upgrade from Lollipop once it comes out or does it have to be done a different way?

Just downgraded. (Accidentally). Now I have some questions topic

This is NOT a how-to or anything. Don't try to follow in my footsteps of stupidity and brick your phone.

That being said...

XT 1060 (Verizon)

I have been running 4.4.4 for quite a while now. Right after JCase released sunshine for our phones. (I have an unlocked bootloader.)

I had it rooted, and tried out the 5.0 ROMs a while ago. Flashed back to stock to wait for the update when we heard it was coming "very soon". But tonight I got impatient and decided I was going to re-root and switch back to CM12. So, I opened Moto X Toolkit (love that tool) and installed TWRP. When I manually rebooted I forgot to boot into recovery. Don't know if that had anything to do with the ensuing problems or not, but after that, I couldn't get it to boot into recovery.

So, I flashed back to stock 4.4.4 again. Tried rebooting into stock recovery... no joy.
So off I go again... one more attempt to flash stock 4.4.4. This time, when it asked me if I wanted to reboot into bootloader or android, I tried to boot into android. Sadly I missed the "a" and typed "ndroid". The toolkit began doing something... looks like it was running the flash all over again. I let it do its thing, then very carefully typed "android" so I wouldnt screw it up again.

It rebooted perfectly, but once it was up and running, I noticed all of my icons were blue. I quickly jumped into the "about phone section and noticed it said "4.2.2".

This is not supposed to be possible, so at this point I was half panicking and half curious... so I decided to do an even more stupid thing and accept the updates.

I am now updated completely to 4.4.4. Zero issues... recovery works fine, radio is fine, wifi and BT are fine.


This leads me to two questions (Directed to developers)...

1) Is there a possibility this is repeatable?

2) My curiosity is about to get me into trouble... I have two more Moto X's that are 4.4.4. Locked BL. I would like to know what the worst case scenario is. I know there is a possibility of "bricking", but that term has not, for a long time, meant what it originally did. How badly "bricked" might it be? Bootloops? Chance of recovering by flashing stock firmware or RSD? Or truly bricked?

[Q] Theme questions topic

I am running Dirty Unicorns 8.1 official and i seem to have problems with some themes. for instance, the scribe theme, i purchased it and had it running on another rom (spirit) but i cannot get it to download onto dirty unicorn. keeps saying something about wrong error code and wont let me load it.... also some icons are staying the same as other themes i have had (Crimson) and not changing back to holo or any other themes i change.... for instance, the phone icon is staying on crimson and not changing to what ever i have chosen.... any info for a noob would be great! :)
