Performance boost in latest T-Mo Update

I haven't noticed any battery life problems with the latest OTA update as others have, but it feels like my S6 runs more smoothly than it used to. RAM usage still sits at around 90% though.

Anyone experiencing the same positive change?

[HELP] Unable to update latest Exodus Nightly on OnePlus One

I've been using the Exodus nightlies for the last few months and updating with no issue until the latest one (exodus-5.1-20150921-NIGHTLY-bacon.zip). When I try to update, it passes the MD5 check but then errors out with "error executing updater". I have tried the following and any tips on what I can try next would be greatly appreciated.

Steps taken:

1. I've tried using exodus-5.1-20150921-NIGHTLY-bacon.zip from both the Exodus Updater application as well as Exodus website.
2. I was running TWRP 2.8.6.1 when I initally tried to install the nightly. After some searching, people seemed to resolve the issue by updating TWRP. I updated TWRP to 2.8.7.0 but I'm still experiencing the same issue.

Anyone experiencing the same thing? Any suggestions on what I can try next?

Confused - latest software versions?

Hi Guys

I'm completely confused.

I'm on a H815 in the UK. My phone is an O2-UK branded handset and my latest branded software version is H81510E_00 (v10e). I'm currently using the EU open unbranded firmware which works absolutely fine.

However - around the forums I'm seeing versions V10F, G, H etc so now I'm completely confused.

What is the latest software version available for EU handsets? Is it E? Why are some people saying that D is the latest, or they're installing E but it's showing as version D.

What's the definitive answer as of today - 22nd September? Can we keep a stickied post at the top of the forum simply stating which official software version is the latest for which handsets?

Cheers
Nick

Find 7 HARD brick after latest CM12 nightly

I think I might be screwed.

I've been updating with CM12 nightlies about every third of sixth one since the first one and never had a problem. Until today.

Downloaded the 9/21 CM 12 nightly after running my weekly Titanium backup.

Rebooted into TWRP recovery, flashed the zip file for CM12, wiped cached and rebooted. Except the phone rebooted into fastboot. Uh oh.

Phone will no only boot into fastboot, with just the power button = fastboot, power+vol up = fastboot, power+vol down = fastboot.

Plugged phone into computer with USB, PDANet recognizes the phone as having been connected but won't run because adb.exe is installed. Phone shows up in Device Manager with correct driver, listed as Android Device. Phone does NOT show up in Windows 7 Explorer. ADB does NOT work because it doesn't list any devices.

I can run fastboot and all fastboot commands from a command prompt. I've flashed several new recovery images but still cannot reboot into recovery.
I've deleted and updated drivers over and over.
I've pulled battery, SIM card, SD card in every combination I can think of.

In all cases I can only boot to fastboot.

I LOVED this phone! My best phone ever!

Any ideas?

Thanks,

-AJ

Latest Sense Home Update Fix???

So I'm sureim not the only1 with the problem, when updatingto the newest Sense Home Update, the launcher itself works fine, but All articleson Blinkfeed disappear and even when clicking the buttons to search for content or add content, it doesn't do a thing... Does anybody know of a fix for this??
I've tried everything, wiping data, cache, I've even tried on a completely clean flash of rom (NuSense7), and still nothing...

Warning: CM11 and 12 don't work with the latest versions of TWRP and Philz touch

The short story: I tried to update from CM11 to CM12 snapshot on 9/1/2015, but every CM based ROM would get stuck at CM boot logo, and this is true with the latest TWRP and latest Philz, along with the snapshot CM recovery provided at the official download page. After downgrading to TWRP 2.6.3.0 at the suggestion of http://forum.xda-developers.com/note...2972922/page32, I got it working.

The long story:

I tried to update to CM12 over the air from CM11. That didn't work, as my philz touch recovery just boot directly back to CM11. It's too quick for me to see the install logs, but there was some error message like "can't install" etc.
So I thought maybe I need a different recovery, since the update notice does say "compatible recovery required" and I saw there is such a recovery in the CM download site.
I flashed cm12.1 snapshot recovery using flashify but I got stuck in a boot loop.
I then flashed the recovery using heimdall and that worked.
I then flashed cm12.1 snapshot using the cm recovery, but that was stuck on the cm logo for at least 4 hours before I shut it down.
I then tried a couple more times and it's the same thing.
I installed other cm11 versions and they all get stuck on the logo (even though I came from cm11).
So I tried a different recovery, the latest version of twrp and long story short it's the same thing with cm roms.
Then I flashed back to philz touch (but I didn't realize that I flashed the latest version) and it's the same thing.
Even after I restored a previous backup, the cm11 rom wouldn't boot up.
At the end I was able to use odin to flash back to stock.
I can also flash rwilco's NE2 based ROM.
I have also tried cyanideL, which is CM12 based and it gets stuck too.

Finally I found the post mentioned above and downgrading to TWRP 2.6.3.0 worked.

Hopefully this post will help someone down the road.

How to add latest QMG support to your Note 4

Most Galaxy Note 5 apks include .qmg files instead of .png.
The Galaxy Note 4 has .qmg support but the .qmg files used by the Note 5 use a different encoder, driver or whatever it's used to create & read those files...
Due to that reason, most of the people who wanted to use Note 5 apps had to:
1-convert from qmg to png using one of those devices
2-decompile the apk
3-delete the qmgs, add the pngs
4-recompile the apk
That's time consuming if you want to do it with a big number of apps..

Electron Team found the way to have Note 5 QMG Support on your Galaxy Note 4, so here we are sharing a flashable zip so everybody can use it:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/1912lzyw14...5apks.zip?dl=0

It should work with any 5.1.1 exynos devices and also with the Snapdragon variants of the Note 5, but so far we only tested it on Exynos Note 4,

PS: This thread is opened as DevDB thread as it could be used in the future to share other general mods & tools and also to allow my colleagues from the E-Team to update it in the future in case that I can't or don't want to do it.

PS2: It would be nice if other "devs" share similar findings instead of keeping the secret from themselves.... ;)
Unfortunately most of the "devs" won't do it to avoid having more competition and because it's cool to make the noobs believe that you are a master when the reality is that you didn't had to code much or nothing at all, but it would be nice...

Safe to update to latest SuperSU?

My Note 2 is rooted/unlocked with CASUAL. I am running Beans stock 4.3 ROM.

I am running SuperSU version 1.8 but the Play store shows an update to version 2.46

Is it safe to run this update? Is it advisable to update?

Thanks for any input on this.

(NVM) Can't Change Brightness after latest AT&T update

Brightness slider has completely disappeared from notification window. And the slider inside settings doesn't work and is greyed out. What the heck is happening? Did Samsung or AT&T think manual brightness options are unnecessary now?

EDIT: turns out the brightness control is disabled when low battery. Ran the phone for two days now without a charge so yeah. Didn't know that.

I rooted my Moto G a while back to install a specific app.

Now I want to flash the latest stable CM build on it (based on Kitkat 4.4.4) but it seems like the phone isn't detected in the terminal.

Any help?

Latest Update

I installed the latest update on my S6 last night and now my icons look like the Note 5's. Quite nice plus there's a few more apps installed.

I was hoping with this update Samsung Pay would have been installed as I've been waiting for it. Seems like it's not there yet.

Anyone got any idea when it will be available in the UK?

Latest LG G3 software update issues

I got a notification for a software update yesterday. After downloading and installing 2/2, the phone moved on to the usual optimising apps stage that happens after an update. It stuck at 174/199 or thereabouts, and it has been frozen at that overnight.
It took a while to get it to restart this morning, and when it did it carried on optimising 17/19. Since then, many Apps crash out on their logo splash page, or do not load at all, and The Play Store is unavailable.
I probably need a factory reset to sort it out, but backup programs will not run.
What an absolute pain. Seems a number of people have the same issue

difference between note 2 and latest models

i have been due an upgrade for some time, but stuck with the note 2 as it does exactly what i need
but it is getting on a bit and slowing down, if i was to upgrade to a note 4 or whatever is next coming out what would i lose? and what would be biggest gains?

I love the note2 battery life - and chargers pretty quick. this was wit hthe original battery, and then i bought a replacement (said genuine note 2 batt) a few months back to breathe some life back in to the phone.

i love the ability to airplay images and video to my samsung tv.
(and even to other models with the play2 app).
the screen size is good.
The screen is even good in sunlight when i increase the brigthness.
I like the ability to increase storage with the sd card slot, i hear some phones dont allow this now. Pictures do get backed up but i dont intend to download them everytime i want to view them, havign them on the phone is crucial.
I havent rooted the phone due to issues with GPS and maps on an older phone, as these are pretty important to me.

What have people been impressed with when upgrading and what have you missed?

Moto 360 won't update to the latest version

I've tried resetting it, deleting the wear app, unpairing bluetooth...even tried it on my tablet and the thing just will not find the update. My friend did it the other day on his new phone and it grabbed the new update straight away.

I tried contacting Motorola support and they were useless... Does anyone have any other suggestions? I wouldn't be that bothered but I feel the wifi would make me use the watch far more, plus with the latest version it works with iPhones and I'm thinking of switching to an iPhone 6S Plus!

Thanks in advance for any help.

Want to install latest stock rom before I dump sprint

I get horrible signal all over the San Francisco area. Inside my home half the time I can't even make a call. Before I just give up on Sprint I thought I'd try installing the latest stock rom and whatever updates it has and see if that helps.

Can anyone tell me where I can find the latest ota update for the Sprint note 4? Would prefer to keep it rooted.

And if anyone has any other suggestions to improve the signal on the phone, I'm all ears.

Thanks
