[Q] Nexus & Gear fit - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I have an issue with my Google nexus 4 phone and i was wondering if anyone can help me to solve it.
Its a great phone and its been working great with anything i want it to work. This issue became aware to me after the system update from 4.4.4 to 5.0.0 and now i have the 5.0.1 .
I have managed to connect my nexus to the Samsung gear fit device and it was working for me but after the system update it stopped. Actually the gear fit manager apk does not start on the new system 5.0.0 or 5.0.1, it gives me the ( unfortunately the application has stopped working ) think.
I was wandering if any of you found any way around it to get it to work.
Regards and thanks for any help you have been providing us.
George.

[Q] Nexus 7 2012 Stop system update notification

Hello guys, i have this 2012 Nexus 7 wifi 16gb and updated it to lollipop. I really don't like the performance so i went back to stock 4.4.4 but i can't stop the damn lollipop system update notification. I found on the forum some solutions with DisableService and Startup manager but i can't find those services in kitkat (maybe google changed something). So any ideeas how i could get rid of the System Update Notifications in 4.4.4 ? (my device is rooted),
Found it, they moved the update service to google play services so this will have to be disabled again everytime they update the play services...that's that i guess

Official Android 5.0 Lollipop. Should I update?

Hi all,
I got a notification on my G2 D802 to update to 5.0 lollipop a while ago but wondering if its safe to do so. I goggled it and found out that some people had some major issues with battery drain and bad wifi performance. Anyway I proceeded to download the LG PC suite to still give it a try however I got this message on startup. " Android 5.0 Lollipop guide
Date : 2014.11.27
For phone or tablet with Android 5.0 Lollipop or later,
phone or tablet will not back up or restore properly due to security on Android.
Refrain from use.
"
Now I am really thinking twice lol.. Can anyone shed some light on this? Is it safe to update? Can anyone did it before can advice me?
Q&A not dev section
Crap. Sorry didnt realize.
It's OK go and update it. But if you are happy with Kitkat then don't update it.
Even i was in same situation but then i went n tried updating using pc suit. Cudnt be successful as it started showing error while downloading multiple times.Any advice?

Hmmm. You tried doing a factory reset before updating?

Hello guys , i recently got a Note 3 4G LTE SM-N9008v (koreean build) , and i don't have Google Play Services on it. I was wondering how could i install it ? I tried downloading the latest apk and installing it but it won't start , after than i saw that that version of the store was targeted for Android 6.0 Marshmallow , so i looked for and older version , my phone has 5.0 lollipop official , found it , installed it but still nothing. I was wondering if you guys could help me , maybe someone has interfered with this problem and manage to solve it somehow. And also i was curious if there are any roms for this phone and how can i install Recovery mode if that's possible. Thanks in advance guys ! .

I don't think that's a Korean model, which are 900K, 900S and 900L, and do have Google Play Store already installed.
I think yours is a Chinese variant, so you need to find a thread for that model for more information.

Galaxy S5 Play Store problems

Hello everyone. I recently bought an Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F). After I made the "first run set-up" , I went to Google Play to download all the apps I needed.And then Google Play suddenly stopped and an error poped out : "Google Play stopped working"..ok I tried again,after aproximatively 3 minutes the error shows up again and again..I know that Samsung has some problems with Google Play,so I tried some fixes found on the internet. I tried deleting all data,cache,and updates.. It worked.Looks like my phone has some "problems" with the new update (6.0.5) for Google Play Store. With the old one (5.x - sorry I can't remember the version),I have no problems. But,the other problem is that after a few minutes,the app updates itself to the last version. I even tried to make a factory reset,but the error still shows up (I tried to reset the phone from the settings and from the recovery boot). I don't have a problem using the old version of PLay store,but I also can't use an outdated version for too long. Is there any way to fix it? I'm trying all kind of fixes found on the internet for hours and I'm getting angry. Is there any way to fix it,or I can send it to warrany? (I'm afraid to send it to warranty because I know that all they do there is to reset my phone and I lose a lot of time waiting to make a freaking reset that I can make even myself).
I would have posted an image with the error,but this forum doesn't allow me to put links into my threads for "security reasons".
So please,if you can help me It would be awesome. Thank you again and sorry for my bad english.
I forgot to mention,phone model is SM-G900F with Android 5.0 (I can`t make update to 5.1,I dont know why.)
Try reflashing 5.0 stock firmware using Odin
Note: G900F does not have 5.1.1 yet

Well,I'm very dissapointed because I got my phone to some GSM Services,and most of they told me that this is a common issue for Samsung devices and you must be pretty lucky to not get into such errors with an Samsung phone. So yes,I will "maybe" try to flash the original firmware with Odin,but I don't think it will help. So anyway thank you for helping me,I will try to use this phone with this bulls*it error and maybe,maybe (which is quite impossible) Samsung will release an update that would solve this problem.
Whats your firmware build number?

Just to lighten you up, this problem is not "common" in Samsung devices. My family and relatives uses mostly Samsung phones and tablets and never did we have this problem, even on two Galaxy S5s (G900F and G900FD).
Flashing the stock firmware should help.

Well,I reflashed the stock rom with Odin3.9 but this problem still occurs. If you are talking about Baseband version than this is it: G900FXXU1BOJ1
EDIT: After 2 months of trying to fix the problem,it still occurs.

Upgrading GT-P5110 with newer Android version

Hi
Was hoping to get some guidance from anyone who has successfully upgraded the Android version on their Samsung GT-P5110. My daughter needs to install educational software that requires Android 5 or above (due to COVID/Home Schooling). Id love to buy a new tablet but Ive lost my job so hoping to get this old tablet working. Has anyone succesfully upgraded this model? Any help with instructions and links to correct versions of Odin, TWRP and OS Image would be most appreciated. Ive got some tips from this thread but not sure where to get the correct file versions..

Tablet is useless to me now. YouTube no longer works keeps asking to update
