[Q] Question about Gapps and Os' - General Questions and Answers

I'm completely new, and I apologize for this question, but...
...can you run Gapps 5.0 on kitkat 4.4.x?
I am fully aware that you can not run Gapps 4.4 on anything 5.0 related, but what about the other way around? I wanted to try it on my phone, and if it gets bricked I know how to fix it. But I figured it'd be best to ask someone first. I searched through this forum but wasn't sure what to look for, but from what I read I didn't see anything in regards to this.
I'm using Samsung GS5 on AT&T.

[Q] The best way to root?

Hi everyone,
Uhm, i'm not experienced with this stuff, but i wanted to ask, because i saw lots of ways but i still don't know what to try.
What's the best, i mean, safest way to root an One S? I really hate this Sense 4 and those tards from HTC said that "We cannot update it to Sense 5" and stuff (i had a long talk with them). I heard that rooting isn't working all the time, and you can get your device "Bricked" or sort of, so i really wanted to ask if there's a super-safe way or something like that.
And yes, back to my question, i actually have a Mac, so i wanted to know if there's a way to do it on Mac, and where i can find 'super-detailed' explanation of root-ing it. Any help appreciated.
P.S: If there's already a thread of this, please put the link below, thanks again.

Thanks, uhm, i want to get CyanogenMod on my One S. Is it stable? Or there still are major glitches? Oh, and uhm, what actually do i do with this SuperSU? Doesn't it needs root to work?

[Q] newbie question... sorry if previously answered

Sorry to be posting in possibly the wrong spot.
I am pretty good at technical stuff.... computers, phones, tablets, etc. But I am completely new to rooting devices, doing OS updates, or installing new ROMS.
What I am looking to do is update my MEASY U2C from 4.1.1 to kit kat 4.4. I have no idea how to do this. Do I have to root the device? If so, how do I do that? Do I then install some ROM? If so, where do I get it? How do I install it? How do I know it is the correct ROM?
Should I do something with the device before rooting, just in case there is a problem and so I can get it back to where it was?
As you can see, this is all new to me. Can anyone help me?
Thank you.

[Completed] [QUESTION] as carrying a rom to another device or correct the mistake of not turning

Hello people. I here again, this time I REALLY have a question, how do I carry one to another rom-like device with my for my ?? I want to use a custom rom Xperia, only she is for a similar device with mine, so I want to port it to my device-. It is to edit a file inside the rom to change? I want to do this to be able to undo the error in the Wi-Fi does not turn on (and this is very annoying, believe me) is that all you REALLY want to do, or else someone can teach me how to undo this Bug WI-FI, that is when it does not turn, I hope for answers >< even more
**My phone is GT-S5303B aand the rom is for the phone GT-S5301 :laugh:
Hi again. You can not flash a Rom from another device onto your device. It will fall or possibly brick your device. There is very little information about your device on XDA. That means it's probably best if you don't try to flash a Rom. I'm going to ask to have your thread moved here,http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2257421. Where maybe some one can help you.

[TRIO MIZAR ULTRA] I didn't know where to post this, please move it in the right plac

Sorry for being an idiot, but I couldn't find anything related to this smartphone on XDA, so I just posted here.
My father has a Trio Mizar Ultra (never heard of it, uh?), which has a very bad custom Android version.
He wants me to install a clean Android version on it, but I don't know if I can do that, or how: could you please tell me something about it?

Unroot Query

Hi all,
Apologies if this seems like a simple question, but I'm having an issue with my Nokia 7 Plus and I'm not sure if anyone else has come across it. To the best of my knowledge, I have never rooted or attempted to root this phone. However Microsoft Intune Company Portal is telling me it's rooted (or partially rooted).
My question is whether there is a way to unroot that doesn't involve reflashing a stock rom? The only unroot instructions I have seen have been to flash stock roms, which I'm willing to try, just unsure if this will solve the problem since I'm running stock Android One, updated to the latest release.
Many thanks for any help or thoughts you may have!
EDIT: I just saw the questions/answers forum now... apologies, if someone could please move or delete this I would greatly appreciate it.
