I have a Galaxy S4 and it recently started to say, "Com.android.systemui has stopped" when I hold down the home key to get to the 'task manager'. I looked it up and the internet told me that something changed my system files(I didn't download anything that would affect the files). I have tried to factory reset my phone and even tried to re-download the stock rom off of the internet. When I used the stock rom it would work until I updated the google app. I have since uninstalled the updates to the google app. Any help would be great. Model- SGH-M919

I'm facing a sort of infinite loop here. I'm considering rooting and/or flashing custom ROMs into my android phone for a number of reasons. So far, nothing is working well (ADB works randomly, programs that require ADB also work randomly, etc), but when dealing with prehistoric 1980s-style computers Android this isn't at all unexpected. I'm willing to invest some time and end up worse that I currently am in the process, so long as I can revert to defaults. And that's where the real problem comes: every guide on the matter suggests backing up the stock software in case things go wrong, which given other users's experiences seems very reasonable. The problem is, all suggested backup methods involve a rooted phone. And all rooting guides suggest backing up first, because rooting can also lead to infinite reboot loops. However, at that point they link to backup guides... which require phone rooting. So my question: is there any way I can cover myself against terminal failure before rooting the phone (i.e., in case the rooting attempt bricks it)?

Hey,what the heck are "PXE OpROM Policy" and "Storage OpROM Policy" ? I have them in my bios of ascrock x470 master sli. I have CSM enabled for optimal compatibility,even though my drives are in gpt format and they work in uefi mode. Both of these ("PXE OpROM Policy" and "Storage OpROM Policy") have a drop down menu, saying "Legacy only", "Uefi only" and "do not lanch". What should i choose?I have dual boot windows 7 and 10. Thanks!!

Hello there! So i'm having a weird problem with android custom ROMs. So i used a galaxy S5 with Lineage OS 16 as my daily driver for almost 3/4 months, it was an okish experience. Now i got a Moto Z Play and im currently using it as my daily driver for a couple days. And i wanted to install lineageOS on it, or any ROM that is Android Pie on it. But the problem is every damn time i try to install a custom rom in my device (XT1635-02 BTW) it has the same odd bug, whenever I lock the screen it resets when i try to unlock. And i have no idea why... (It aparently works in other devices just like mine, same model that is) does anyone have any idea what may be causing this?

Have a Galaxy S6 G920T, TMobile version, that needs serious help at this point. I've tried searching through the XDA website but my version of the phone doesn't seem to be that popular and supported. Do you guys have any roms that would help breathe new life to this dying phone of mine?

I was trusting asus all this time to provide a good stock android experience, but my god their inadequacy as a good oem has baffled me. How hard can it be to update a stock version of Android to pie? They delayed the update and security patches so many times, and finally when pie alpha does drop, it still has all the bugs from the pie beta. I still believe, that they can fix and redeem themselves, but in case they don't, i would like to install a reliable custom rom for asus zenfone max Pro m1. My main requirements will be dark mode, dark notifications, dark everything, near stock experience, reliability, and easy and quick updates. Which will be the ideal rom for my case? I havent had any experience with installing custom roms as well so i would also appreciate a simple to follow guide. Thank you

I'm using a cheap huawei phone ,while I'm putting aside money to buy a new phone, (Y5 2018 DRA-L01) and the performance is literally unbearable, huge stutters, phone becomes inrensponsive really often, has a hard time picking up Wi-Fi signals and the UI is really slowing the phone down. Because of all of these reason I decided that it's better to change the OS and then reinstalling the stock ROM before selling it. However I can't find the Bootloader Unlock Key anywhere, since Huawei stopped sending them, and the only solution seems to be to pay 35$ - 55$. Is there any way I can do this for free?

Need Help. I tried to install a global rom version of a Redmi note 7 pro and the first time i installed it succeeded. but during the first boot, it was on the redmi logo for a while, after it restarted, it went straight to twrp recovery. when i check the internal storage, all i can see was a bunch folders with randon names. the thing is i forgot to make a backup before installing the rom on twrp. now i did a format data, installed the ROM again and this time it just went straight into twrp. is there a workaround for this? Thanks in advance

Hey everyone, A little background: It's been almost one year ago since I've had my Samsung Galaxy S10e (Exynos) without root and I've been enjoying it a lot. However, since my previous phone was a Nexus 5X with a custom close-to-stock Android 10 ROM (PixelExperience) I miss it a lot. I miss the smooth animations stock Android provides and the gestures don't seem as refined in One UI as they do in Stock Android. Additionally, there's a lot of Galaxy Apps that I don't use, and in general I've been wanting to root my phone to also install a couple XPOSED modules to tweak my experience (but that's for a different post, maybe). Don't get me wrong, One UI has great features, but stock is stock. To the point: I've been looking at stock android roms for the past few days and unfortunantly, the PixelExperience isn't available for my phone, odly enough. However, LineageOS is. I keep debating if I should install it or not, I know that I will lose all my data along with some features such as VoLTE and VoWiFi and maybe some Knox features will stop working, but I'm glad some features still work such as the cameras (all of them), the fingerprint sensor and wireless powershare. I will also want to install GAPS. Basically I want to turn my S10e in the perfect Pixel device. What I fear: Well, I've been reading that if you unlock your bootloader and flash the rom, then your phone will automatically lock the bootloader (or something similar to that. I don't remember - I would have to check it out if I proceed with this), so I fear that I end up with a bricked device. How should I go about fixing this if this happens? Got any tips on how to avoid it? A couple questions: What about updates? Do I have to wipe and re-install the ROM when an update comes out? What about major updates? Lineage OS Android 11? Do you recommend a different ROM other than LineageOS? And my main question: What are the bad consequences? What if I softbrick my device. Can I recover it? Hardbrick? Can I fix it? How? Do you recommend any articles to check out in case those two (or others) happen? Your opinion: What do you think? Got any tips/tricks, known pitfalls?

Is there any relation between mobile processors and custom roms that can be installed on it? does processor type or company affect flashing?

I have an LG Spectrum VS920 and I would like to upgrade the stuck 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich to android 4.3 because most applications on the Play store have minimum requirements of android 4.3, is there a custom ROM for this phone I could install? I would at least like to run snapchat at minimum. This phone is more likely to be a project or a burner phone of some sort so I am not looking to buy another phone, I just want to see if it is possible.

Hi, I'm new into this Samsung world, I bought an used phone not long ago. And I wanted to use S pay, as it turns out I can't use it because this phone is from the US and I live in Mexico, so I discovered that I can change the CSC code and all that. The problem here is that I don't know how to, I've read that i must use a Combination File to change the CSC and ROM and all. The questions are: *which combination file should i use? i have the ROM i need so i still need to find a combination file Important! *is there a problem changing firmware? I have a SM-G9550U Samsung galaxy and I'm trying to use the SM-G9550F version. So different processors. *and is it even necessary to change the firmware to update the csc? *how to do it? I've read a lot about this by now, but still, no clue or answer about my questions (Gonna link bellow everything I've read so far) [XDA] (https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...strap-t3771987) (https://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...t3721058/page8) [Sammobile] (https://www.sammobile.com/forum/thre...mbination-file) [ROM'S] [FREE] (https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/.../SM-G955F/MXO/) [TCE] (https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/...U1CRC7/216222/) [STOCK] (https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/.../SM-G955U/VZW/) And I've even posted a few times, I really need your help, besides s pay there are so many functions that i cant use because of region lock I would really appreciate your help! Thanks in advance for helping me out!

I have been using my LeEco le s3 for a while now and I have recently flashed Lineage OS 14.1 on my phone I was wondering if there was any better custom ROM that would give me better battery life but still feels just as snappy as for visual appeal I prefer stock android but I'm always for additional features. I'm fine with either Nougat or Oreo Note the LeEco le s3 uses the same ROM's as the LeEco le 2

I am planning to root my Sony Xperia Z5Compact since my warranty had ended two weeks ago but I've been trying to learn since how to do that but I'm currently unable to. I've downloaded the recent twrp recovery for my phone, unlocked my bootloader, downloaded the sony companion app and the adb software to my pc and tried to do it several times. I go into adb and reboot into bootloader and then attempt to flash recovery recovery.img but then the adb says <waiting any devices> and doesn't respond again. I unplug my phone and then reboot it normally to try it in a different usb port but always ended the same. I followed many videos on youtube but when they succeed something goes wrong and then I'm stuck again. And also does only flashing a custom rom give me root acces? I'll download magisk after I root my phone btw... Hope and believe that you guys be helpful about this

Does anybody know a community that people follow for this phone? Like when someone's gonna install a custom rom, usually you find some thread that people download one kernel or stuff that proven itself and works nice. It seems there doesn't exist so much with my new phone. I've been used Samsung S3 and LG G2 and I understand that there's no such comparable community exists for my Huawei, my 2 old phones used to be flagship at their time. At now, I am really confused what to install to my phone and internet doesn't help so much, hope you guys help. Thanks. (it is quite too long of a wall of text sorry^^)

Hi! I'm planning to buy the galaxy S6 but the problem is that it's a verizon galaxy s6.However it will be unlocked just like all the other carrier phones smuggled from other countries to Pakistan My question is that, because it's unlocked, can I install the ROMs made for the international variants of the s6 on this verizon version or will I have to find ROMs specifically made for the verizon galaxy s6

I mean, modern phones should have all the hardware necessary to be IOT devices. Is it possible to turn your last-gen phones into new google 'show' devices? Like this new Android Things device: https://www.theverge.com/2018/1/8/16859082/lenovo-google-smart-display-features-pricing-ces-2018 They'd have the huge bonus of having an audio jack...

Lineage OS is a custom ROM, but Xiaomi was creating custom ROMs which makes me wonder if they are still using same type of ROM still does that mean they have custom ROM out of the box? Or are they no longer custom because they are included with the phone? Are custom ROMs even Android? What is the rules what makes it custom? :3

new nintendo ds xl Costum Rom Card for New Nintendo 3DS XL
NopedLEL posted a topic in Console Gaming
Hello! I just bought a New Nintendo 3DS XL, but I'm not planning on buying all those expensive games for it. So I was planning on buying someone like a R4 card and use that for my games, just like when I was a kid. The thing is; I don't really have an idea about which one is the best and I have some other questions in general. Q1: What is the best card to play normal DS games and 3DS games for the lowest price? Q2: What is "AL9H"? Q3: Which site delivers the fastest (I live in the Netherlands)? Q4: How can I go online when I use one of these cards? Q5: What is the best site to get the software from? Q6: Can I buy a random SD-Card for the card? Q7: What is a recommended size for a SD-Card? Q8: Is there a good site(/or video) (not badly translated from Chinese or something) which helps me with installing this card? If you could help me out with these questions I would be very thankful. -
So, I am planning to upgrade my CPU on LGA775 motherboard (ASRock P5B-DE). After some research I have found out, that you can put LGA771 Xeons in LGA775 sockets, with some modification. Currently, I have Q9400 and want to upgrade to E54xx or X54xx CPU. I looked some videos on YouTube how to make it work. I managed to do everything, except patching new BIOS to work with xeons. It says this: ERROR!! ROM space isn't enough.. There are some old patches that are from 2005 and older. Maybe I can delete those to free up some space. I think that these patches are for Pentium D or Celeron's so they are pretty useless anyway. Maybe anyone of you have tried upgrading like me, and can help me?
