    Root Hello everyone...been a looong time

    Quick question...I have tried searching but no luck, as I don't know exactly what I'm looking for. In short, my GS5 has been a nightmare since Lollipop, something went wrong with the OTA. Sprint is no help, so i'm rooting it. I haven't rooted a phone since my HTC Evo, so I'm a little rusty...

    Root Another one bites the dust

    Thank you, all of you who have shared knowledge, experience, tips, etc. My EVO powers down every time is moved/jarred so I guess I'm moving on. I'm thinking either the SGS3 or the SG Note as my main targets, any other thoughts or suggestions? I'm staying w/ Sprint and LTE is due in my town...

    Root Nandroid Issue

    I'm at work, pardon the brevity. Was happily running MikG 3.11 forever. Made Nandroid. Flashed CM7. Flashed Gapps. Tinkered a bit. Didn't like, restored Nandroid. Phone not at all restored, multiple apps missing, gapps missing, weirdness abounds. Ideas? Thanks! -HN

    Root Ok, I know I'm asking for abuse here, but....

    Thinking about going to the dark side. Yes, it's upgrade time and I am tempted by Siri and her charms. Only real contender from Android is EVO 4G LTE. Opinions?

    So I just started playing around with setCPU, and I thought the best way to make sure I don't blow my phone up is to ask for some opinions. Vitals : Mik 2.59 Chop Suey 9.2.6 V6 Supercharged

    Root Quick DoubleTwist FC question

    Hi guys. I am getting FC messages when I'm running Doubletwist, but the App does not shut down. It doesn't hiccup or anything, I just am pressing 'wait' and the message goes away, but it comes right back in a few minutes. Anybody else getting this? Minor, but annoying. Stats: HTC Evo 4G...

    Root All of a sudden voicemail issues, nothing been changed?

    Hi there. I've been running Mik 2.55 and Chop Suey 0.9 for several days now, no issues, no problems. All of a sudden today, voicemails won't download. I hit the 'retry download' and it doesn't work. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it maybe a Sprint Network thing?? Thanks! -HN

    Howdy

    Just like the handle implies, I'm as nooby as they come. I just want to root my phone because I want longer battery life, and power to delete bloatware. Not much of a computer guy, but I'm decent. Going to read the 'rooting for dummies' thread and give it a shot. Wish me luck, I'll need it.:D
