    TUTORIAL: Downgrade Samsung Galaxy S5 from 5.0 to 4.4 KitKat

    It seems that post refers to updating TO OA8 FROM a former rooted build. That's not me. I have unrotted OA8, and wanted it to be back on rooted kitkat. I did, however, figure it out. With all of you guys wonderful help. It appears OE1 is the ONLY build you can't downgrade from at this time...

    TUTORIAL: Downgrade Samsung Galaxy S5 from 5.0 to 4.4 KitKat

    I purchased a phone on ebay, but haven't activated it yet. I powered it up to see what version it was (after the other phone I purchased was OE1 - dang). It is OA8. I'm trying to downgrade - can I downgrade with the OP method from OA8? Thanks.

    Verizon closed upgrade Loophole for family share plan members?

    So were you able to keep the unlimited in this process? I thought going through a 3rd party was a guarantee that you will lose your unlimited? Thanks.

    Some new phone questions...

    I'm going from a rooted ICS Samsung Fascinate to a Nexus tomorrow, and I'm going to be rooting right away. Here's a few questions though... - Since I'm going from an sd card to a phone without an sd card, what does that look like for the files on my card? Could I just throw them on the hard...

    Actually free text messaging app - not replacement

    I'm NOT looking for just a stock messaging replacement app. I'm looking for an app that allows texting without a texting plan (pretty sure it MUST require a new number). I have a Google Voice account, but I can only send 5 messages at a time. I'd like to be able to send more than that...

    ROM's with Puzzle Unlock

    Well - contrary to most people around here, I LOVE the puzzle unlock. I've been without it for quite sometime (due to most developers taking it out of the ROM's). I'm wondering if there are actually any Gingerbread ROM's that still have it built in? I've been on CM7 and Espresso as of today...

    Help, please!

    Hey guys... Ok - I figured I'd share. I will officially never use the pit file again. Don't use this guy's word as the only opinion, but I had ZERO success with it in combination with any other file in the PDA slot. I tried about everything under the sun until I just decided to try the...

    Help, please!

    Yes. I'm not sure about the first time, but I did after it didn't work the first time. Please... Any other option? I'm still phone-less. I opened the dl09 in the pda slot (checked), opened the atlas 2.2 file in the pit area, and checked the re-partition area. Update: Now I've gotten it to boot...

    Help, please!

    I just tried out again, and I forgot about an error message that I get in the stock recovery... E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (invalid argument) # manual mode # Please, help. Thanks, guys!

    Help, please!

    Well, I tried to go all the way back to stock with dl09 and the atlas file. This was to get rid of cm7 and go to the espresso that's out now. I've had nothing but problems though. This of the first time that I've tried to use the atlas file. Every other time I've left that field blank, and trust...

    CM7 Nightly Builds

    Have they fixed the tethering issue either wirelessly or wired? I'm still on the original CM7 (no nighties have been flashed). Do I just wipe everything and then reflash the latest nightly to apply? Thanks, guys.

    CM7 Nightly Builds

    My buddy sent me a video he probably took with his phone (a .3gp file format) to my gmail, and I'm not able to view it - it's happened before with some of my videos. I'm wondering what's up - anyone else noticed this? When it tries to open it, it asks what I want to open it with and I have...
