Strange Icon Hi I have been using the superman rom for a couple of days now after too many issues with lineageOS. So far it seems great! Just one query, ever since upgrading, I have this icon on the notifications bar which I don't recognise. I've attached a pitcure as it's easier than...

Thanks so basically it will be 7.0 or 7.0.1? I've just moved from stock to lineage,but missing some of the Samsung features. Also battery life is no better with lineage, if anything it's worse...

3 quick questions Hi, sorry I feel dumb for asking these questions but I can't seem to find the answers to these seemingly obvious questions! 1) what version of nougat is this? 7.1.2 like Lineage? 2) can u use the galaxy apps including gear vr with this rom? 3) if you remove root, can you...

I have one bug now since upgrading where it doesn't remember the launcher. Every time I click home it asks me which launcher to use and won't remember the default one? I much prefer holo launcher rather than touchwiz Sent from my SM-G900FD using XDA Free mobile app

Many thanks. I took the plunge and upgraded my sm-g900fd t9 the Russian 5.0 version. So far no problems. One of the main reasons for upgrading is that battery life was v poor on kit kat for me. It's early days but Lollipop doesn't seem to have improved battery life at all.. :mad: Sent from...

Upgrade Duos to 5.0 No root and no reset Hi, I have a S5 Duos (SM-G900FD) UAE version and would like to upgrade to Lollipop. Is it possible to upgrade WITHOUT reset and WITHOUT Root? Due to the apps on my phone (I use it for work and have certificates installed etc.) I need to keep my apps...

Just installing! Just installing the update now. I have a German LG E900, running on a UK Talkmobile (MVNO of Vodafone)! No wonder I had to force update! I tried loads of things, and on the verge of giving up, when I used the UK Proxy tip, earlier in the thread. (Even though I am already in...

Hi, thanks however I have tried the force update method several times as well as ensuring all the cabs are in as per the manual update instructions including ensuring the right language packs are there but still get exactly the same error as before.. no applicable packages... guess I'll have to...

Can't get my phone to update LG Optimus E900 Hi, I am based in the UK with a European model and can't upgrade to 7.8 (LG Optimus E900) I've tried the force update method, no joy and the manual cab method but it just says can't find applicable package.... Any ideas please? Thanks

Can't get my phone to update Hi, Thanks for the tips, however I can't get my LG Optimus E900 to update. I have tried the force update method and also the manual cab method but the manual cab method backs up the phone and installs the cabs, then fails with an error saying no applicable...

Also free tethering *bump* also, a tethering application similar to MiWi in IOS that allows you to tether your phone (to share your existing data bundle) but without incurring additional charges from your network provider. I'd love to code this but wouldn't have a clue where to start! :)

One the iphone 4, tethering works in a different way so uses a different APN, therefore your mobile operator will charge you an extra £5 per month if you use tethering. If you jailbreak your phone you can use MiWi which uses the normal APN so you share your normal monthly inclusive internet...

One feature missing from Mango is Bluetooth Dial-up Networking. A lot of standard Nokia phones support it as well as most Blackberry and Sony Ericsson. Admittedly, IOS and Android don't support it. If an app or feature could be written it would be an extremely useful tool. I would use it for...

Thanks, Wifi tethering sounds promising. Particularly if you can use it in stealth to stop carriers from charging you extra for tethering. You can do this on IOS with Mi-wi or PDAnet. As for the bluetooth issue, I just hope Microsoft get their act together but it doesn't sound like it will...
