Goodby thread lol

Nope still waiting.

"#AndroidLollipop rollout has started and will soon be available on most #Nexus devices. Dessert is served. "
https://twitter.com/Android/status/532623587874963456

There was a thread about the roll out but it got locked for some reason.

Where should we discuss now no thread for discussion..

Here :good::laugh:

in be4 lock lol
and i went back to stock to see if the update came thru and still nope

Hey guys, if you get it, you MUST share it ok?

"Alright guys... we've been watching this thread for quite some time now, and what happens in here is completely unacceptable.
We've been discussing the matter in our mod team, and decided to close this thread for some time.
There were/are posts in this thread breaking several forum rules, which is completely unacceptable. We are a forum for all ages, which means you should watch your language at least a bit. We were allowing this thread simply because it was obvious we'd need one, even though it was kinda a grey area. We in the Sony/Moto/LG section do not allow OT threads, which this one kinda is. All posts in here are either completely off topic, or simply just complaining. But guess what.... this doesn't bring the update any faster either.
And if you happen to have the genious idea of opening up a new thread, please don't do it, or else we have to take further action against you..."
This is what a moderator posted in the original thread. I am sorry. Like really sorry but you guys are literally retarted if you open new threads

Why would you go back to stock just for OTA? That is a waste of time flashing stock rom for ota when you can just download lollipop rom from factory image page (when there is one) and flash it there

So it begins?

thats right mate and theis fellow put htis in dev instead of q N a
he is right
this is a dev zone go to this link and google
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567610
and go to his wiki it will tell you how if you have the g1 from google is is all ready root
wow ! This is a record ! 20 mins and no one has bashed the starter of this thread? Lmao !
Its all good though man.. just read up on ROOT, SPLS and Requirements.. if you read the guide on how to root your phone, you SHOULD be up and running the latest cyanogen mod rom within the next half an hour.. be sure to READ the directions carefully.. and if your not sure about something, scroll through some of the posts in the thread.. 9 xs out of 10 someone has asked your question, and has received an answer... if there are too many pages to read, like let's say maybe 40 or more, jus go to google, and search for your problem.. this site plus some others may pop up and offer you some help.. good luck and welcome to the community !

[Port?]CM9 on Galaxy W

So i know the closest phone to ours in terms of hardware, is the Galaxy W right?
And guess what? They got the CM9 port this week.
So i guess this could help some developers to port it to our phone?
*_*
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576874
Here's the link btw
i thought it has been mention a lot of times although same specs but it is not possible to port as the mobo is all different
Yeah, I'm not thinking on getting their rom and trying to install it on my phone.
I meant get their base and develop something similar on our phone, using the same cpu/gpu drivers, wich i think are the main problem we have right now.
I'm no developer, but i don't think that this is impossible.
Their original developer is porting it as we speak, so maybe we should continue the talk here ?
If dev is porting... new thread will open
Hereby thread closed!
Go arco. He brought CM7 to my old phone (htc wildfire) so it is just a matter of time until we have CM9 for our S+.

Yeah, but they are focused on CM7 and the released version for the Galaxy W is the CM9.

Maybe i'm a noob. I'm not a develorper, but does it mean i shouldn't make part of this forum?
First of all, i've registered here not to create stuff, but to show my apreciation for the work of people who do create it.
I've donated to estimulate the development of other projects on other devices, but aparently people of the 9001 section don't actually care about this kind of user ( aka noobs).
And when i try to point that other developers managed to get CM9 on a phone that is very similar to ours you react that way? Seriously, you didn't became more of a man when you answered like a dickhead.
Anyway, i'm sorry for trying to help out the development of our device by bringing unharmful information.
C ya.
Your thread is in the wrong section. It should go into 9000 General section and the thread title should start with [9001]. That's the rules that were set up by XDA officials for us and our device. Not very handy but that's it.
This topic is not new and was discussed several times already in various other threads here. Ironically in the Cyanogenmod porting thread arco68, who ported CM9 for Galaxy W, has been around for two days and started to analyse out device. If you searched and read a bit, you would have found that. So this thread is a duplicate.
And thanks for the dickhead.

I can understand this reaction.
It's in my opinion the result of lacking our own general forum.
it's a shame that if i want to read topics in the general forum i have to use the search button to see i9001 topics.
When the Samsung Galaxy S Advance arrives does it get a subforum in the i9000 forum? if this is so this wil make things again more confusing.
And if there is a administrator then close this thread
But on topic there wil be a thread from arco68 ? about porting cm9.

HELP me with this CFroot!!!

hey i really dont understand what is CFroot and it complications, i have a few questions if some developer or someone really knowledgeable person here can answer pls for me and all the noobs out here. and i bet ya all, even some of the really talented and well experienced people out here might also be dodged with these questions:
Q1- is the stock LPY rom safe? the one which we download from xda which is like 500 mb or something?
Q2- what is CFroot? is it harmfull to do full wipe with this?
Q3- what is my kernal in the stock rom which is 500 mb or something? i cant understand it so i attached a screen shot if u can tell me.
Q4- with this (stock rom downloaded and flashed) kernal and everything which u can see in my screen shot can i flash the CWM and root my phone safely with out and issues? can u pls for the sake of android brotherhood, give me some details? i know i can find that in many threads but as i already mentioned do this favor and explain it here for the sake of android brotherhood!
Q5- rocket rom and midnote rom are out for LPY can i flash them with no issues?
i will be really great full to the people helping cause this LPY and BRICKING issue have really been pain in my a** for a couple of days and i m really so afraid to flash without complete knowledge of things.
thanks

Loose your attitude, it wont let you go far on here. And DEV section is only for Development not Q&A which your thread clearly is. As you see the Mod has already done that. Thirdly there are plenty of places you can read about it.
Anyway...
CFroot is chainfire root and its the kernels/CWM/CFroot mixed together creating problems. No one is sure which one it is.
To make it sure its better not to do any wipes from CFroot CWM, If you want to do full wipe, use abyssnote4.2. then flash your rom on top.
Your kernel is already LPY, which is the latest one. As said above and as in Rocketrom ICS thread install it like that. You should be fine. But then again if you are not sure, then its better late than sorry..

[Q] AT&T KitKat 4.4.2 Update Failing in 27%

I just flash my Note3 to install Stock 4.4.2 update. Do whatever and the system update manually, OTA and pushed by AT&T fails at 27% updating the phone. Anyone is experiencing the same issue?
Going back to root probably tonight and forget about AT&T KitKat. lol

It seems your phone was previously rooted. It happens to me as well. I am still waiting for solution from the developer.
So if your phone was previously rooted, but no longer rooted... you can't get the update? Even if I wanted to stay un-rooted, the only way to update to kitkat is by re-rooting and the upgrading?
Oh look... Another thread amongst 6 billion with the same issue...

This post would be far more helpful with some actual links to maybe one or two of the useful threads out of the 6 billion. I searched the general section and have not found any simple fix to take the OTA update from a rooted NB4. However, I did find some other threads on the topic so hopefully these will help others. If I find a better fix I'll post it here.

Except that after I read your post, I was under the impression that there was a simple fix to get the OTA update to complete. There isn't, at least not that I could find. I searched for quite some time trying to find the "fix" you were referring to and out of the six billion posts I only came up with those two links. Also the link in the 2nd post of this thread was useful. However, as far as I can tell, there are workarounds to get the kitkat upgrade, but there is no way to get the OTA update to complete on its own. If I'm wrong, please correct me.
Incidentally, this thread was the first thread I came across in my search for a solution. If I landed here first, others will do the same. That's why I think it's helpful to others if you post a link to the appropriate information. It's not just for the sake of the OP, but for everyone who lands here. However, if you feel like it's better for the community to teach the OP a lesson and force them to search, that's really your call. We'll just agree to disagree.

Is there currently a way

Im by no means new to the rooting community, but I'm drawing a blank on finding the information I need. Maybe just having a blind day lol.
But is there anyway to root the AT&T Galaxy S5 on Lollipop?

This has been asked and answered SEVERAL TIMES in SEVERAL THREADS. If you are on G900A and took the OTA to 5.0 you are screwed, no root and no downgrade. If you are on G870A (S5 Active) then you can downgrade, root, and reupgrade with keep root through muniz_ri method or flash a custom ROM like TMS5 or Alliance. I'm feeling the need to make a Lollipop 5.0 Q&A thread so new threads asking week old questions can stop cluttering up the forums.
Well since this post has obviously butthurt someone will a mod please delete. Thanks.
