Hello, I received the notification to update to 5.1 yesterday.
I downloaded it and when try to install it, it said it failed. I´m not sure if its because I´m using a custom rom. I have UBL, root and using Z4 experience.
the thing is that today I notice that my contacts are not showing, if I go to contacts nothing apperas, if I receive a call, it will only show the number as if I didn´t have the contact stored. I checked my accounts and all of them seem to be synced.
Do anyone else have this problem?

Reflashing the rom should solve the problem... (or upgrading to L using flashtools, too)

thanks Linuxct, what do your recommend? I´m using your rom and I´m quite happy with it.
Is L a good option or should I wait until there´s a custom rom based on L?

I got mine weeks ago... If you are rooted you won't get it. Just download the official rom and radio from here.
I am not rooted!! As stock as they come
Verify your build number
Setting -> About Phone -> Software Information and look at build number. Let us know what that is.
Also (not saying your dumb or didn't know to do this, but you didn't specify if you have tried or not) try a force check.
Settings -> Software Update -> Check new
My build number is 1.13.605.7
I have called verizon 4 times, and htc ones and everyone just keeps tellimg me thats is coming and just to wait. Come on....21 days
I have also tried all the tricks, battery pull, setting phone on 1x and even dailing that *#*#2..... number thing. The only thing is refuse to do is a factory reset only because i have read in other forums that people called htc and they had them do a factory reset only do have no result.

Odd... Easiest solution... Root and install the rooted deodexed ota rom... And don't forget to flash the ota mr2 radio...

I would just root your phone and flash BAMF Sense 3.0 rc5. It's very stable and makes your TBolt better. I have been using it for the past month and I love it!

I'm running a Tbolt with rooted stock ROM and Adrenalyne's CF2.0 kernel. I got no less than TEN messages about downloading 1.70.x this weekend despite my choosing Reject from the option every time!!

I just wish I could make the OTA update stop bugging me. On my first TB, I'd hit reject and it would go away forever. Now I'm rooted on the stock rom and it's bugging me 1-2 times a day despite rejecting it. :\

Why not search for the rooted edition of the ota, install it and then it won't bug you anymore?

To be 100% honest, I never had issues with the stock radios at all (3G only area.) So with no reboots, I wanted to stick with what worked, despite the 'fix' that rolled out, then the fix for the fix (this OTA.)
I'll give it a shot.

Where can this be found? I'm doing a few searches, but would like to keep root and up to the current ota so I stop getting these firmware updates.
They try to install on their own, and lock the phone, have to clear cache to get my phone back working.
Hello,
I'm new here and yes, I'm a noob.
I recently got myself a Xoom 2 Media Editon (MZ608) as my first tablet. I'm not the kind of person who always needs the latest hard- and software and basicly I'm ok with the installed Android 4.0.4. Unfortunately one of the apps I'd like to use refuses to install on an "old" Android version. And another app, which was already pre-installed, refuses to update for the same reason.
As I said I'm a noob and I never modded a tablet. I searched the web for two hours but now I'm lost. There is so much information and even the guides I found seem to start in the middle. The main problem however is that I found many links and files for Android 3.2.2 and 4.0.4 but nothing helpful for anything more up-to-date.
I really just need anything newer than 4.0.4. It doesn't matter if it's 4.1.x or 4.2.x. Where do I have to go and what do I need to do? Thanks in advance for any help!
I don't believe there is anything more up to date for the media edition Xoom, also no custom recovery is possible so zero custom ROMs.

Thanks for your answer. That's sad news.
Is there at least any way to get an older version of an app from Google Play or to force installation of the new version? And can I get rid of the second app I mentioned? It fails to update and I don't want it anyway.

Actually there is a recovery available for the Xoom 2.

Unfortunately, there are no custom roms (yet?..).

Maybe you could tell us which app it is so we can find another way.
Is anyone having a problem in their device that misses March 8th? Mine doesn't have that day but for the months before and after there's no problem of the messed up dates except for March.

Nope, totally stock (too noob to understand all those flashing ROM thing).
Update: now I have to add an event on the 8th to make it reappear again, if not, it just disappears.
Ditch that stock Google calendar app and switch to Sunrise Calendar. It's pretty awesome
One of my friend also have this problem. By the way, this isn't the stock Google Calendar, it's the built-in calendar app.
Like in the topic.
In call volume is the main concern.
Thanks
I'm still on KitKat... refused the Lollipop update. No issues with in call volume... definitely loud enough.
Same here. Never was a fan of lollipop's look. Still snappy since i got it first few weeks it came out. Battery still strong. No probs with in call volume either. Notification volume is louder from what i read also.
As it turns out, speed difference and real world performance is nil if any. Looking back, kk may be the windows xp version of android, light and quick vs heavier fancier more features of newer versions to come.
Check it out!

In call volume is fine for me but using the speakers for music I find lacklustre.

Hi guys, just bought a 6653, i'am about to root it via firmware downgrade, and wonder, after root, should i flash :
the last KK 4.4 23.0.1.A.5.77
OR GO FOR
the last LP 5.1.1 23.4.A.0.546
Does it really worth upgrading to 5.1.1?
Thanks for your answers, cheers
Iam also still on rooted KK, runs perfectly with Greenify and Amplify. Up to 8h DOT with 70% Brightness on 3 Days.
Never change a running System.

I received my z3 today and it came with 5.0.2, i updated to 5.1.1 but it feels weird.
Can i downgrade to kk without problems?
Thanks!

Please share with us how to downgrade.
Please be "gentle " because I haven't done root in my life yet

I downgraded after trying lollipop. My reception is 100% worse at home and also got the mobile radio active bug when out and about on data on both 5.0.2 and 5.1.1. Shame, because otherwise the OS is really slick and smooth. Oh well.

Did you do a full wipe before downgrade?

Lollipop was worse. I tried fullwipe installation of 5.1.1 but still had those issues mentioned. When I downgraded I had an old TWRP backup so I just deleted everything but storage in TWRP and restored the backup and it seems to be fine for me. Though flashing an official FTF 4.4.4 might be better to just make sure but I'm a bit too lazy for that right now lol.
Im on 4.4.4
Love it. But I would like to try 5.1.1 on my D6616... Can't find a pre_rooted flashable.zip though.

I just downgrade my Z3 from LP 5.1.1 to KK 4.4.4. Yes, use that method from that link. But be extra cautious while using the Flashtool to downgrade to KK 4.4.4. REMEMBER to WIPE App Info, Cache and User Data at the top right of Flashtool. I forgot about it and my phone went to Bootloop problem. Had a hard time on figuring out on how to stop the bootloop. If anyone forget about it and went to bootloop, just totally switch off the Z3 by pressing power + up vol together. Then run Flashtool again. This time round don't mind about USB Debugging etc cause you cant go in anyway.
Almost 3 weeks on Kitkat 23.0.1..5.77
Its very fast and smooth, wonder if LP would give me any improvement (or disadvantage) ?
I'm also back on KK after 5.0 and 5.1 stints. I had all the classic problems associated with Lollipop whereas KK is rock solid.

guys whenever I try to open about phone option in settings, they are crashing.
I have rooted phone with busybox installed.
I am using xposed (monster UI, Xstana, xblast, eggster) etc for 20-25 days with no problem.
But now facing the problem.
I also tryd disabling all modules, wipe cache partition etc but problem doesn't go!!!
I tryd everything except hard reset bcoz I still want that I wouldn't reset it.
Pls give me a solution.
Note: My bro having android 5.1 also faced it even he didn't root that. but it was solved in few days.
You probably f**ked something up while messing with Xposed or BusyBox.

But I have installed those 20-25 days ago. I got no problem then.
As I said that my bro also faced it even if he wasn't rooted.
Then he would not have messed it.

It's a phone from India which means its some cheap piece of poop that's gonna have a lot of issues. Rooting the phone probably didn't help you with that. My best advice?
Un-Root.
Factory Reset.
Just incase though, what version of Android are you running?
