I'm in Finland and we're still waiting for official 4.4. but I'm starting to be a little bit suspicious we'll ever get that...

Does anyone know if Samsung is planing on releasing 4.4.2 for the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active i9295 i can't seem to find any news regarding update for this this one.
Also, does anyone know if there is a stable custom ROM for i9295 ? i tried carbon but the camera didn't work, so i returned to rooted stock ROM 4.2.2
It would be good if anyone could share a stable custom ROM for Samsung Galaxy S4 Active i9295 with the camera and most features as possible working (doesn't matter if it's 4.3 or 4.4.
Thanks all

From what I know from Samsung they still working on 4.4.2 for I9295. We have to wait.
There's some drivers problems with camera that's why it doesn't work as on stock Rom. That's problems of every Custom Rom that I saw.

Thanks ewa12321 I guess we will have to keep on waiting. If anyone hears anything about releasing date for 4.4.2 for s4 active i9295 please spread the word.

Hey guys, the update is out for the i9295 officially! Unfortunately, you can only get it in the Netherlands right now, and will probably be out around the world in a couple of weeks. If you are impatient like me, you can try flashing the update yourself and relieve that suffering! I can't post the link where I got my update as I am a nub and Mr xda does not want spamming, but a simple Google search can get you to the tutorial on flashing this update using Odin. Also, I am not sure if this will void the warranty as it is the official update but it is being manually flashed. This update should work on any i9295 factory unlocked version.
good luck!

S4 Active i9295 on stock 4.4.2
hello,
does anyone know how to root S4 Active i9295 on stock 4.4.2 ? i used to be rooted on 4.2.2 but was not getting updates OTA, so i re-installed stock 4.2.2 via Odin and updated to 4.4.2 OTA now that i've done this, my phone has knox, anyway i have installed CWM-Recovery-gt-i9295_v1-2.tar.md5 via Odin, but when i try to flash CF-Auto-Root.tar it doen't work, i'm thinking maybe now that i am on 4.4.2 they way to root the phone may be different, any help anyone can provide would be much appreciated.

S4 Active i9295 on stock 4.4.2 with knox

Hello,
In order to root your 4.4.2 OTA Update, I would recommend reflashing it clean using Odin.
Then download CWM 6.0.4.8 with Swipe by mythi and flash it using Odin. Then download SuperSU v1.99 from chainfire's website or the dev forums and flash the zip file using CWM. Now reboot your device and you are fully rooted.
When you first open SuperSU on your device it will ask you if you want to disable KNOX, just hit Yes.
Good day!

Has anyone done this and does it work... After that can i flash stock jb rom with odin.
And are the instructions for s4 active international ( nordic ) version.

Yes I have done it.
I also have the NEE (Nordic) S4 Active, I tried both with the Stock 4.4.2 NEE from Samfirmware.com and the PHN 4.4.2 ROM of mythi's.
I am now running CarbonRom 4.4.2, and also tried to restore 4.2.2 Stock.
The only downside being that if you install 4.4.2 and restore a custom ROM after that you will get a red line when booting saying "KERNEL IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING".
So you can go ahead full speed and try it, works like a charm!

Okay!
My problem is that only updates what i have installed are samsung stock updates, so i haven't never used odin or flashed anything in my phone.
After i updatet my phone to 4.4,2. ( i think it was last week) some of apps stopped to work
Now i'd like to downgrade it back.
I found some instructions that only thing that i have to do is flsh 4.2.2 with odin and i'm back to jb.... it did not work. And now i' back to kk...
But if i use your instructions to root my stock 4.4,2 and after that i flash stock 4.2,2 NEE Rom i' m back to JB.
Can you also type simplified instructions (with downloadlinks) how to do it... it's my first time.
Thanks so much!!!

revert to 4.2.2
hello,
i have a GT-I9295
i have updated from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 PDA: I9295XXUCNH2 released 7 aug. via odin 3.09
had to do a factory reset to get wifi working, etc..
i then wanted to revert back to 4.2, but i couldn't, and still can't... i did the following:
- flash with odin the 4.2 from sammobile: error: NAND Write Start!!.....<ID:0/004> Complete(Write) operation failed. soft brik, Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again.
- tried to reflash the 4.4 firmware i already had with odin...same error.
- couldnt boot the phone again untill i flashed cwm 6.0.5.0
- installed carbon rom from cwm no problem. did reset, wipe cahe, format system, etc. i now have the not seandroid enforcing message when booting and entering recovery, but everything works.
- tried to flash again with odin the 4.2 official, still no luck. same error right after nand write.
i remember downgrading from 4.4 PDA: I9295XXUCNE4 to 4.2 PDA: I9295XXUBML3 with no problems a while back on my other i9295 via odin.
is the bootloader different in this version of 4.4 i flashed than the one i flashed a while back?
the weird thing is that i get the same write failure with reflashing 4.4 with odin.
any thoughts?
thank you

[Q] root\flash xperia with broken usb port

Hello all
I have an xperia z phone which is currently on 4.4.2 standard sony update and has never been rooted. Unfortunately the phone usb is damaged, i have to charge the phone using a dock.
My question is this can i still root and flash the phone with a broken usb port?
Maybe by copying files onto phone using an sd card?
Any help is appreciated

Use towelroot to root your device. And use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/orig-development/app-recovery-twrp-2-4-3-0-lockled-t2190936 app to install TWRP recovery and then flash stock based ROMs

Thanks for the reply.
there is a OTA 4.4.4 update coming soon to my carrier. If i root my device will this effect my ability to do OTA updates?
Also if you still can do OTA updates on a rooted phones does updating unroot the phone.
You also mention flash stock roms, which current ones do you recommend.

you can update a rooted phone to 4.4.4
but doing so will unroot it again.
to gain toot access on 4.4.4 after updating you have to flash 4.4.2 kernel root and then flash 4.4.4 kernel
so getting root on 4.4.4 you will need a working usb port

OTA UK 4.4.4 update still not arrived??? gonna try a flash!
Well this over the air update 4.4.4 seems be not arriving. anyone in the UK (on Three carrier) had a 4.4.4 update?
I think i'm going to try flashing this update myself (remember my usb is broken and on stock 4.4.2).
This is the process (correct me if i'm wrong!!)
1. install towelroot and root device (easy just install app)
2. install SU app (again easy just install app and restart phone)
3. install a recovery software (whats the easy way to do this without usb?)
4. download one of the stock roms from the general section of the xperia z forum. (i have noticed there is not a UK version, is this a problem?)
5. copy this rom to the phone using SD card (do i need to copy this rom to the phone or leave it on the SD card?).
6. boot into the recovery software, clear the caches and flash the rom.
I should then have rooted 4.4.4 stock xperia Z.
If anyone has anything to add I would be most grateful of any help or advice.

You are kinda.... WRONG! here is why:
Step 3: That recovery installing software working only on 4.2.2 because I already tried to install the recovery from it and FAILED on the newer Android versions....
Step 4: those ROMs with UK in the title or any others like that are NOT recovery flashable ROMs. They are pure stock ROMs can be flashed only via flashtool. You can find what you need in the development section.
Sorry to say that...

update to lolipop my xz3c and keep the root, possible?

sorry for the bed english...
i have experia z3 compact rotted
4.4.4.
build 23.0.a.2.93
how can i update to lolipop and keep my root?
10x.

Yes you can indeed! You just have to flash a pre-rooted Lollipop firmware (linked). That link has a pre-made pre-rooted 5.0.2 Lollipop firmware that should work well! The only problem right now is the the XZDualRecovery does not really support Lollipop yet, but will very soon be updated!
You may also want to refer to this comprehensive guide.

And is that a problem if XZDualRecovery is not supported yet ?
I have a Z3c rooted on 4.4 and I still don't understand what is the purpose of dual recovery. What does it change for me on a daily basis if I flash a pre-booked 5.0.2 and if dual recovery doesn't work yet ?
Sorry for the dumb question, I prefer to make sure before trying to flash the pre-booked 5.02

You might have problems installing Xposed. In KitKat I could only install it from Recovery. If Lollipop is the same you might not be able to install it until there's a working Recovery.

Xposed is still alpha for lollipop, expect issues.

i just donwload this file and 1 more qustion...
is it support hebrew? if not where do i get file like this thet support hebrew?
and i simplly update via ota...my root will dissappere?

i'm using kk and already install this by recovery after reading that post

After reading a couple of posts :
- "real" root on lollipop is not yet available. You can't mount system as r/w without recovery.
- no recovery yet support lollipop.
- xposed is yet in beta for lollipop. However, everything works except modules made specifically for kk.
- xposed can only be installed via recovery on lp. It's because of security breach fixed.
So, I would advise to wait for a recovery before flashing lp.
Best chance are at nut's dual recovery.

I just installed xposed and got into a bootloop too. Stock ROM rooted.

Realy no one that can awnser my question?

Try this version of Xposed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960
It works with stock roms. You must flash it using TWRP 2.8, becasue TWRP3.0 has the bootloop issue, dont know why.

Hey @Vaako,
I'm not sure if this is still urgent for you, but here's the procedure I followed to get what you want:
- Grab a recent stock ROM that fits your country from updato.com
- Flash the stock ROM to the device using ODIN
- Root the device by flashing CF-AutoRoot using ODIN.
- Flash TWRP 3.0 to the device using ODIN
- Use Barebone Cleaner (by installing it through TWRP 3.0) to remove unneeded Samsung bloatware
- Install wanam's Xposed mod for Samsung using TWRP 3.0.
Note that this works for me with TWRP 3.0 without any bootloop issues.
Result: a cleaned-up, rooted recent stock ROM with XPosed installed.
No custom kernels or anything, because on my G800H custom kernels make me lose GPS. Your mileage may vary, though.

HTC One M7 on EE(UK) Best Rom

Hi Guys,
Ive recently upgraded my Huawei P9 to Nougat after a frustrating and painfull experience i do hope that im not in for another long ride i suppose inexperience adds to the frustration but nothing i cant handle except the time wasting as long as its worth it in the end though!
Anyways, i am looking to upgrade my old htc one m7 on the EE network in the UK to android 7. Is there a guide that you could point me to in order to get the ball rolling? the questions i need answering is.... does it have to be rooted, does it need to be carrier unlocked?, which programs do i need to download?, how long should this whole process take an average joe to install everything? am i likely to run into any issues problems other than the obvious bricking scenarios?
I remember back in the day i did my htc tytn 2 and customised that but that was 10 years ago.....where does time go?
thanks in advance
cammy

Just to be clear there is no official nougat for our m7. We have only custom roms. So let you start the whole process with unlocking your bootloader. After you will do that you will have to install a custom recovery (newest TWRP). When you will do this then find a custom ROM that you would want to install, download it (remember to download gapps also), put it on your phone, go to the recovery (power + vol down), do a full wipe (data, system, cache and dalvik-cache) and then flash your rom and gapps. After you will do that simply reboot your phone and be happy using the newest nougat rom on your htc. If you have more questions simply write them here or on PM

hi dj,
what are the benefits of using the nougat update over marshmallow? which rom works better in terms of functionality, battery life etc... does all hardware correspond in the nougat rom?
can i use the twrp program i used for my p9 or do i need to download another? is it much the same process for flashing like it was on the huawei p9?
what is the guestimate on time for the whole complete process?
also, can i backup my apps, contacts etc... and reinstall them after the nougat update?
sorry for all the questions :/

Well, nougat roms are much more stable then marshmallow ones (at least on our m7). Battery life is ok, nothing special, but still not that bad. Everything technically works (some bugs are just user related)
For recovery you need to use a version made for m7 ofc. Flashing is simple as you only need to write a one command in the cmd (or terminal but depends on a system you actually use)
And for the last question - yes you can make a backup of apps and contacts but you have to know that some apps might act weird after that process (you will have to simply reinstall them)

You can find the latest twrp here https://dl.twrp.me/m7univ/
Well for the Rom itself it depends on what you want, i think most Android N Roms are nearly complete Bugfree here is an overview of those Roms https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/general/nougat-roms-international-htc-one-m7-t3524060
I use AICP for a while now but tried most of them and AICP is best for me now.

When you are in twrp, you should be able to connect it to your pc. If the pc doesnt recognize it go into "mount" and deactivate mtp and activate it again, should connect now.

i managed to install aicp rom and i installed bean gapps not sure what im looking for in terms of bean gapps but i will google it.
however, after installing the rom i get a repeat boot loop after about 10 secondswhen im on phone menu. any ideas whats wrong?

I guess you installed a correct rom right? (for m7). If you got a bootloop then simply wipe cache, dalvik-cache, data and system and flash AICP and gapps again
