Have the same problem after 5.0.2 update on my t700. I've tried several rom versions, made full wipes before and after flashing the roms but no luck. The device is stock with no root.

It's a problem which started bugging my Note 3 too after the Lollipop upgrade so that very much confirms that it's a software issue..
Switch to Always Off in settings and then tap on OK
After this, choose your old setting like 1.5 seconds and then tap OK again.. :highfive:

[Q] Wont update?

I have a Wildfire and I have recently got rid of all my root/rom etc,
Completley wiped it and put it back to factory.
Now I have waited a month of two for the updates to come as its still on 2.2.1 which is how I got it when I bought the phone, but I would prefer it to be on the latest version.
How can I sort this? Any ideas? When I had the phone rooted and I got rid of the rom the update came up within two days, It would not download properly due to the root and now everything is back to normal the update just isn't coming!
it's a bit silly these things just being "over air" why don't they have a download link?!
Last version is 2.2.1...
Yeah but I used to have the latest version where the unlock would be a swipe to the right and you could change from silent to loud by swiping to the left and it was all updated and look fancier.
Now It has the old version where you swipe down to unlock etc.
The one im on now :

The new update looked like this :

Use widget locker,or lock bot...you have many options of colors and button pics to make it more cooler!

The latest version that you are thinking is not official update by HTC. It is the customised pure Android with/without additions.
The last official update for wildfire by Htc is 2.2.1
Sent from my Blade using XDA App
Your new "update" was actually a Custom ROM. What you are seeing now is what you should be seeing on an official unrooted ROM
But I am 99% sure I had the update before I had the root and rom.
it wanted to update when it was rooted and had no rom on it, so thought it would update again once i'd cleared the root.
Maybe it was just when I had rooted it then.
Can't be.
ROM, Yes, getting that lockscreen on the Stock ROM is possible, but, without root, no. (I am not including 3rd party lockscreen apps here)
Also installing a lock screen on a stock ROM will not change the notification bar. The notification bar in the latest one you are thinking is not the stock one. So mostly it is custom ROM unless you have messed up with the notification bar too.

They were just examples of what I was trying to explain I found on the internet.
Must have been when I rooted the phone I guess. Was a better interface but the Rom has so many niggles I couldn't handle it, oh well.

[Q] Ditto Note 3 v4_RC2. How to get back to official status??

Hi All
I had installed Ditto Note 3 v4_RC2 later the phone started to hang and restart, so i decided to flash 4.4.2 (stock) via Odin and i was successful. But the status is being displayed as " Custom " . I have 8 months warranty left. Please guide me in getting back to official status. :crying:
I hope in the three hours since posting you've solved this issue. All it would take is a small amount of research.
IF you researched and are still unsure please get back in touch, with details

Details sir, it's all about the details.... There's more than one way to crack an egg - few people are going to waste their time speculating how you did it...
What precisely is your goal / why are you doing this?
Which KK ROM exactly, from where?
How did you root?
Which Triangle away version, from where, what exactly did you do?
--
1 free speculation:
If all you care is about the settings option, I think you might be able to just open triangle away click "allow tracker to run" and then reboot into download mode, then just hold the power button down until it reboots again.
Are you sure you didn't see this?

You must root your device for installing this rom/mod. so now your warranty is void. if anything happens to you or your phone is solely your resposibility.
We don't allow chefs/devs/themers to use the files added or modded by us in this ROM.

i have bought new Z2 play from ebay china seller, i have some questions about it !
* how i can check it real genuine moto Z2 play !
*its come with bad theme and rom not i like it, how i can change ROm to another good ROM
Hmm, there are a few things you could try:
1)Power off your device. Then hold both the power button and volume down. You should be in a bootloader screen. Does your bootloader look like this https://goo.gl/images/jgfx4w or like https://goo.gl/images/Bjkfg1 - if like the 2nd image as on a genuine Z2 Play, does it mention albus in the info screen? Does your baseband begin with M8953...? To exit that screen, choose Start with the volume keys and press the power key to select the option.
2) is the device well built, is it fast? Does the camera take sharp photos?
3) download AIDA64 or CPU-Z or DevInfo (or any good hardware info app) and look at the reported CPU, clock speeds and available RAM/storage. Does that match what you bought and what may have been written on the box (Snapdragon 625/626, 2.2 GHz etc)?
Also, you could run the Antutu Officer app to check.
Hmm, you may have ZUI on a genuine Z2 Play, since it appears Z2 play devices in China do have the different skin https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/m.gs...ay_comes_with_zuks_zui_in_china-amp-25882.php I hope someone else can suggest methods to change to a retail stock ROM if it's possible.
You might've bought an actual Chinese Moto Z2 Play, which runs Lenovo's ZUK UI instead of stock Android. Remember that.

There plenty of threads in the Z2 forums here which tell you how to update. I have same phone. Original software is terrible but I flashed new software and working well now. I did have to unlock bootloader though.
Plenty to read in other forums on this.

Question [SOLVED] Dark mode, cannot choose individual app to apply light mode

Hi
strange behaviour when in Dark mode.
I cannot choose single apps to remain in Light mode.
I have another MIUI 12 phone (Poco X3) and it's working fine there.
I have plenty of apps, Google and non-Google ones, but none appears in the list.

Ok nice bro
Had the same problem, the hint about disabling Wi-Fi got me to the root of the problem: I'm using Blokada and it blocked a request to xiaomi when opening the dark mode settings.
God knows why the phone needs to report to "adv.sec.intl.miui.com" but enabling it solves the problem.

I have eu rom and using pihole to block everything from MIUI and xiaomi. I don't have problem since installation of EU rom.
It seems there are many bugs in Miui. I was directed to this thread by searching a solution for media controls not appearing in Spotify. The solution was to disable the dark mode. Now I couldn't specify individual apps, so I had to search a solution another time. This is very frustrating.

Massive issues after upgrade S20 to Android 12

Does anybody encounter multiple issues after Android 12 upgrade (SM-G981B)?
The phone is unusable:
- App freezes/crashes
- Reboot loops (fixed by recovery mode + cache clean)
I even got the official popup 'Your phone has serious software issue, please check update' (obviously there is no update, I updated 2 days ago).
All was good with Android 11.
Anyone knows what that could be - and what could be the solution? Feels like alpha-quality firmware. Not sure if I can easily rollback to 11...
I am even getting this, never saw it before:

Your phone auto reboots after like 5 seconds of it starting, right? If so you need to unlock your phone really quick and start an app and wait 10 seconds then it shouldn't reboot anymore

I have G988N CSC KOO (S20 ultra Korea). A11 work perfectly. Some people got face that problem too
My cure against reboot loops was to get into recovery mode (google how to get into it by pressing VolUp+Power) and then cleaning the cache. Safe enough operation.
The update was available for me yesterday (I just searched for it) here in Latin America. I have used it for few hours without any wipe and everything seems to be ok...
Updated yesterday from Android 11, smooth, no lags. Cleared cache partition before and after update, but just in case - I didn't experience any problems.
Lags, stutter, loss of connection during calls and reboots. Cleared cache, restarted several times. Nothing works. Praying for a fix.
Factory reset.
Here laggy. Refresh of screen is laggy.
Solved: go to sttings, screen, and then select refresh slow, then select refresh fast again.
Although i see refresh fast in stting, in fact the phone is using the slow one. Switching it i have solved.
I do not know how many time this solution will keep my phone without lag.
Edit: when changing the refresh of screen, be sure to APPLY the changes in everey switch.
Re-edit: when connecting the mobile to PC and use DEX, the lag returns again. You have to switch again the speed of refresh manually to return to normal. If DEX not used, refresh of screen keeps high and beauty.
