Cant use emotion kernel anymore

Oh we got hd calling too i love it

I've had HD calling since OB7...

Can I ask how you rooted your Note 4. Is there a guide or link that will walk me in steps.
I have Sprint Note 4 and would like to root (I don't care about custom ROM.. just want rooted so that I can remove some apps and use hotspot).
Thanks!!

Got it. Just need the stock tar in case I make an oopsy.

Clear caches and/or factory reset.

Can anyone who took the update confirm the lollipop hotspot still works?

I don't even use it but i like the idea of having it just incase.
Thank you

It breaks it

Mine works. I was rooted and flashed the stock tar. Took the update. Rooted again and my hotspot still works.

Can anyone else chime in on the Wifi hotspot hack? Does it break it or not for stock unrooted?

Stock Non-rooted N4, took the new OTA. Rebooted once, things are smooth. Hotspot still works.

I'm the guy who found that hotspot trick. I'm downloading the update now. After it installs, I'll test to see if hotspot still works, and I'll also check to see if you can still access/edit APNs via my previous method.
UPDATE: It still works, absolutely no change whatsoever in the process or results.

LOL. I was wondering how people were able to odin the stock tar then reroot and still have working hotspot. I know if you odin the stock Lollipop rom tar without first wiping everything you will have leftover data but other than that, all of the system & framework files get overwritten thus undoing any hotspot mod. So i'm baffled by these reports. Maybe some of you used a different method to hack hotspot?

I haven't altered any system apps or frozen anything. Is as close to stock as possible on jellybeans rom v2. I am thinking I may just have to go back to my stock rooted setup.

I had the same problem. I fixed it by odin flashing the MJ7 modem.
I'm on hyperdrive and also can't get a gps lock on a clear day. I tried everything from his gps quick fix in tweaks, fix permissions, gps fix apps, etc. I don't get a single lock. I'm on mj7 but maybe I need to reflash the modem? Where did you find the modem? I searched all over.
This sucks as I need the gps!

I actually found the mj7 modem and reflashed but still get no gps lock whatsoever.
Bump please anyone I can not get a single gps either on stock it was instant please help just flashed the MJ7 modem and did not help the situation thanks.
Currently attempting to install a stock rom on another safestrap partition. I'll try establishing a gps lock on that to see if it can hopefully re-configure the gps.

Has anyone tried changing to their "stock" partition (with stock ROM on it) getting a GPS lock on the stock then going back to a custom ROM on ROM slot 1? This was the fix with the dual boot Note 2 going back in between 2 ROMs.

Currently in the process of doing this. I overwrote my stock rom with hyperdrive to save space, so I'm downloading/installing a stock MJ7 rom in one of the other slots. I'm hoping this works. I will report back findings
---------- Post added at 02:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 PM ----------
I tested out the stock rom and got GPS lock immediately. Went back to Hyperdrive and still couldn't get a lock after 10 minutes. Popped back over to the stock rom and locked instantly again. Something isn't quite right..
---------- Post added at 02:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:24 PM ----------
Unfortunately I also can't post in the android development forums to let the dev know about my findings. If someone could do that and maybe even link to this thread that would be awesome. I've tried everything I could think and has been suggested at this point.
Another update - I installed a fresh flash of hyperdrive on another room slot and booted up to help rule out any application problems and the with the fresh flash gps did not work.
Just posted link in hyper drive thread and tagged developer hopefully we get a response to this issue we are having with gps.

Thank you very much good sir.
Seems like this issue might be being ignored. I'm amazed more aren't having this issue or just aren't using gps. The only difference I can think of is that I upgraded to MJ7 before flashing. I would think if it's not working after a clean flash that the gps issues would be very widespread. Maybe we can draw attention with a bounty. I'm certainly willing to contribute if this gets a fix.

I'm having this problem as well and I didn't upgrade to MJ7 before safestrap and hyperdrive. I found a temporary fix by going to google maps in your application manager and clearing data and cache but after a day of useage, it's back to not locking. Now the fix doesn't seem to be working, at least not from my backyard, i'll try it from the road and report back. Still, we need a real fix for this. I use GPS and google maps all day for work and I really can't deal with a problem like this.
anyone tried using gps status and check the number of satellites that you can possibly connect to (should be something like 0/18)?

I'm trying to figure out why your gps is not locking. I finished flashing cleanrom the other night and gps locked instantly. But it starting to look a problem because it's more than a handful of users with this issue. Did Beans or Sbreen get back to you?

[NOOB] system update questions.

Thank you in advance!..
So the thing is I rooted and installed a rom I got from xda forum. it was just a detox rom I believe I'm not so sure tho. I was wondering if I updated will it brick or mess up my phone in anyway. If it can mess up my phone could you please link me to a few roms that will work on my phone? something simple and clean looking. the reason I'm asking it cause I'm not really sure how kernel works. can I install any rom with my current kernel?. thank you again!
No you can't take the update!! It will detect the custom files and fail on install! As far as Roms go there's many to choose from and most if not all have screenshots in the op so you can see what your gonna get! My suggestion is try em all but then again I'm a flashaholic!!

I made a back up but idk why my backup would not restore. I reloaded all the odin and md5 files and managed to get my phone back to stock.

Sometimes a battery pull will does the trick for me! I wait 15 min max the do a pull and wait again! If still a no go I restore a back up!! When trying to restore your back up did you do a full wipe before trying to restore?

[SOLVED] Reboots on Uninstalls

Droid Maxx on 4.4, unrooted (due to update). Every time I try to uninstall any app the phone soft reboots and the app remains. Anyone else experiencing this problem? I've found people in similar situations with devices like the Nexus 4 but their only fix was reflashing stock firmware and I'd prefer to not have to do that... Any solutions?
SORRY; please move to troubleshooting thread this doesn't belong here
Have you tried booting into Safe Mode and uninstalling the app there?
What about using House of Moto to flash back to stock 4.4 with keep data?
I had the same problem. You have to flash the dev image for Maxx 4.4. I'll be home in a few hours and will edit this post with a link if you haven't found it by then.

The fix that I used was found in the "Who's gonna leak the Soak Test?" thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48813998
I recommend reading the other posts in that topic (after the "fix" reply) to see what other uses had to do and what did or didn't work for them. I had to do all steps, including all of the fastboot stuff, to get mine to work, but it did retain all data. Good luck!
just had this issue, go ahead and place the 4.4 ota on your root again and flash it through your recovery menu. Just like you did to get 4.4 originally. You won't lose any files but it will fix your system data which right now is goofed up.
A simple try is to clear cache in system recovery. Can't hurt.

[Q] How do I NOT update to Kit Kat

Total Noob here as evident in this being my first post, but googling about how to NOT installl this Kit Kat update that has popped up on my Verizon Note 3 today has brought me here.
Is there any way I can disable this update from happening? I have heard great things about rooting and custom ROMS, and have heard that updating may jeopardize this.
So can I turn off Verizon's ability to update my phone? I delayed this, but my Note 3 wants to install the files it downloaded at 2 a.m.
Can someone give me a crash course to help me, and/or a quick way to prevent this?
Many Thanks.
Step 1 - Root your phone

This method has worked for me twice. Latest was today:
youtube.com/watch?v=ukajWoxI3Tg&index=12&list=PLSQtCJEhU8pillzM7CZlSqFwApt7tKeWV
SKIP ALL THE STUFF ABOUT ODIN AND FLASHING FIRMWARE!!!! If you are stock JB, you don't need to do this part.
Then to get all the Chinese stuff off your phone, follow this tutorial:
youtube.com/watch?v=L5ebYM9CDkI&index=13&list=PLSQtCJEhU8pillzM7CZlSqFwApt7tKeWV
Finally, Install titanium backup, and freeze the program that is trying to force and over the air update. I came to the forum looking for the name of that file. Best I can find so far is: LocalFOTA v2_1308_1_1 -- but there my be others. Come back to the forum when you're rooted and search for it.
Best of luck!

The best way to not update it, is to not update it. It isn't automatic. But after updating mine, my phone is better than ever. Noticeably faster transitions & animations, and great battery. Everything works better with 4.4.2 than it did with 4.3.

The only way you can really stop it is to root and delete a file called sdm 1.0. That is the update checker. But if you are going that far you might as well install a custom rom. There are several good kk roms available now. The biggest thing to keep in mind is that if you ever want to root, you can't take the ota. There will probably never be a root method for the ota version. The leaked nc2 build is kk that is rooted by default and is the base for all available kk roms.

ContextService has stopped NE9 rerooted

No, stock ROM. Never flashed a ROM, Knox 0x0.
I believe I found a solution. I have installed Greenify, but it was disabled under my accessibility services. Apparently that's how it is set by default after downloading it, even when rooted. I turned Greenify on under Settings < Accessibility < Greenify and rebooted my phone. I made a few calls and received one and no more Context Service Errors for me. I am quite curious as to what Context Services are and why Greenify would cause those errors as I do not see any information on it relating to the S5, so if anyone has any idea why this happens, feel free to shed some light on it.I wonder also if Context Services are safe to freeze..
Problem returned with a vengeance after several reboots. Now I boot the phone sometimes and there are no errors, other times and constant FCs. Could I have somehow gotten a corrupt Context Service apk when I flashed to Stock Odin, or the NCG or NE9 kernels? Anyone know what Context Services actually is and if it's safe to freeze if there isn't a fix? I found a similar thread for someone having this issue on the At&T variant and someone replied that his Context Service apk was possibly corrupt and that he PM'd him a new one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/help/context-services-stopped-t2837895/post54614539 If this is something that is possible to do, I would greatly appreciate it.. I've looked both on Google and here and there seems to be very little info on Context Services, so I do not wanna freeze something that's unsafe to freeze, but these errors are killing me. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Totally removed Greenify and the problem is gone. I would love to use Greenify, but I would like to know I can do so without causing issues. Does anyone know how Greenify would cause ContextService FCs?
Logcat
i have a logcat of the issue occurring, both by itself and induced via having my girlfriend call my phone. i took this to the xposed forum first and was told it appears not to be module related. if anyone can give me any input on this, i would really appreciate it
i thought it was just me.. however stock rom works fine for me its my custom build i get the fc on.. i dont have greenify in my rom so not sure if thats the root cause or not.. i will try something and report back

I'm not sure if this will help but from what I've read ss has a problem when using a rom slot instead of the stock slot I've seen a lot of the rom devs change the procedure from using a rom slot to using the stock slot.

yeah i'm in stock slot, not rom slot. didn't mean to post that, but thank you anyways
Anyone know if a Nandroid backup from before I ever originally took the OTA, stock rooted NCG, would fix my problems, and more importantly, if it would trip Knox or not if I restored it via Safestrap?
I haven't read anywhere of someone trying it yet. I was wondering too good question

plenty of posts saying safestrap won't trip knox, had not heard from anyone as to what restoring a nano would do until i specifically asked this question yesterday though... you referring to a certain thread containing these many posts? because until i asked, the safestrap thread even made NO mention of nano backups as they relate to knox...
Never had that but I did get documents have stop once an it never did it again not sure what was up with that ?
Is there an actual fix for the "Unfortunately, Context Service has stopped" error? I really made a stupid mistake yesterday and froze some system apps in Titanium Backup. At first I was getting a bootloop when the OS tried to load the apps and thought I was going to have to wipe data, but I used adb push to send the entire system/app folder to my phone (got the files/folder from my wife's phone who has the same phone on same ROM - I'm 90% sure it is the rooted KOT49K/ANCG build of Verizon GS5). This adb push allowed my phone to boot entirely, but now everytime I boot the phone up, I get the Contest Service error message. So I just backed up Contest Service 2.0.3 using Titanium Backup on her phone, then put the 3 files it created onto my phone and tried using Titanium to restore Context Service 2.0.3 to my phone but to no avail. I tried restoring app only and also restoring app+ data but the restore never completes in TB (ive changed TB to INDIRECT mode too) but it doesn't fix the problem. When I start the restore, it does stop the error message from constantly appearing but only until the next reboot.
So does anyone know how I can stop from getting this error message? I have another working Verizon GS5 on the same ROM at my disposal.
