hi, i got a d802 and i updated it to offical lollipop via lg pc suite .
now it's much slower, it freezes many times a day and the battery is much much worse.
what would you advice me to do ?
should i flash a custom rom ? if so , plz recommend me on a reliable one and if you can attach a friendly noob full guide how to flash roms from the beggining.
thank you so much :*
Did you make factory reset? I had no problems after upgrade to Lollipop on my D802 and I didn't do factory reset, but many users say it needs to be done.
does it delete the storage like music and photos ?

Hello Everyone,
I have few questions which I know might have been answered before (and I appologize for that) but after seeing different responses, I am a bit confused. So here are my questions:
1) I've updated my galaxy note with the official ICS via OTA but after updating it my phone has gone slower and laggy and facing the problem of fast battery draining. So I've decided to install a custom Rom. So please suggest which ROM is best which is stable, fast and have a good battery. I have downloaded Rocket Rom V7. How is it?
2) To Install this ROM I know I have to root my phone but I have read that a lot of ppl bricked their phone. So is it safe to root this phone and if yes what is the best procedure. I have seen posted in other threads that some kernels are not safe. I am posting my Kernel version can u please tell me if it is safe to root and if yes which is the best way.
Android Version: 4.0.3
Kernel Version: 3.0.15-N7000DDLP8-CL551076
Build Number: IML74K.DDLPA
Kindly suggest. Thanks in advance .
Can any one please help....
I suggest you to use LiquidSmooth 2.3. Brilliant rom, the best I have tried on Note. But notice it only got english language.

Yes! its totally safe when done in the right manner....download stock LP3 rom...GB..from stock roms thread...download pc odin and unlockroot software from unlockroot.com...
Now put your mobile to download mode..vol up then lock then menu...press all 3 until you see a android bot...click continue...
Make sure u hav kies installed in pc...open pc odin software...connect ur phone to the pc..click on PDA in pc odin and direct it to the LP3 rom you downloaded..and click on start...wait till everything is done..your phone restarts in GB mod...enable usb debugging and connect it again..open unlock root software and click root..
You have a perfectly rooted phone and safe too...now just follow the steps of RR...download RR and redpill recovery..go to CWM. .vol down and lock and menu...flash redpill..go to advanced and hit Reboot Recovery. .go to wipe menu and do all 3wipes...flash RR..
ENJOY:cyclops:

Hey!
New to the XDA forum, not new to Android!
I will cut to the chase and explain really fast what I need help with.
I have been using the Imperium ROM 4.4.2 KK for a few weeks now and I love it.
But as of a few days ago, Update 4.0 (up from 3.6) was released, and my phone just won't stop spamming me with "upgrade to the latest version 4.0!" . However, as far as I can tell, I have to re-download the 4.0 ROM and flash my phone entirely over again.
So, TL;DR:
I am using the Galaxy S4 Imperium 4.4.2 ROM 3.6 and I want to;
a)Upgrade to 4.0 without re-flashing my and having to re-install all apps, backup photos etc.
b)Turn off the spam notifications about updating.
Thanks in advance, sincerely

I have the same problem i was using 6.0 and now 7.0 is out can i just perform ota update or do i have to donwload the rom and flash it.....what about my apps installed in 6.0 can i just apply update from sd in recovery...i dont want to reinstall all those apps again.plz help
Guys come on. These are really basic questions.
- If you are not prepared to wipe everything from time to time, then you should stay away from custom roms.
- You can just try it yourself if it works. Make a backup and flash away. If you got problems, fully wipe and restore your backup.

Hello, I managed to install Imperium Rom on to my phone but when I try to sync my phone with my samsung account it says sync error and also when I try to restore my phone with my samsung account it says could not connect to server but now I have gone back to my stock rom everything is fine. do you know what the problem could be?

A FEW WEEKS BACK..I ROOTED MY PHONE AND WAS STUCK IN A BOOTLOOP (MY MISTAKE).....SO ONE OF THE XDA DEVELOPERS TOLD ME TO INSTALL A STOCK ROM VIA ODIN.....AND IT WORKED PERFECT...AND IS NOW A PERFECTLY UNROOTED PHONE ......
BUT..... (((
I NOTICED THAT AFTER DOING ALL THIS I NOTICED THAT I LOST ALMOST 1 GB OF MY INTERNAL STORAGE...!!! INTIALLY IN THE FIRST PLACE...OUT OF 8 GB TOTAL...I HAD ACCESS TO 7.5 GB I GUESS(which is normal)..... BUT AFTER ALL THIS NOW I HAVE ONLY 5.2 GB PHONE STORAGE.....!!!!!!! :crying:
***WHAT I THINK IS THAT THE PREVIOUS STOCK ROMS DATA MUST STILL BE HIDING THERE AS A JUNK....!****
(am i right?)......BEFORE INSTALLING THE STOCK ROM VIA ODIN...I DID A FACTORY RESET AND SOME CACHE THINGY THROUGH THE STOCK RECOVERY (i had no custom recovery stuffs)....
ON TOP OF ALL OF THIS........MY BATTERY DRAINS A BIT QUICK (not the extreme case) THAN IT WAS INITIALLY........ PLUS IT HEATS UP PRETTY FAST !
I BEG U ......PLEASE HELP ME TO REMOVE THE JUNK (if it is the case)...I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY ANSWER ANSWERED IN A NOOB FRIENDLY WAY ...
THANKS A LOT IN ADVANCE
Hello everyone I'm new here I just recently rooted my Galaxy S4 i9500 and I want to put in cool speedy Rom.
I also heared that I can combine it with lolipop or something? I dont realy understand it yet I hope you can explain it to me help me choose what's best for me without bricking my phone....
Also I would like to know what apps I must have after rooting or what apps you recommand for me?
Any help will be aprreciate thanks for all !
Start reading as much as you can on this forum and learn from it.
You won't brick your phone, that's almost impossible. That has never happend when flashing custom roms.
Just flash a custom recovery for the i9500 and start flashing the rom you want to try. Always read the first post of the rom and probably the last few pages of the thread.
First of all thank you for the reply, Finaly!
Someone offered me the omni rom with lolipop.
I mainly looking for speedy tweakinish rom and it seems awsome,
but maybe there more roms even better?
also I saw you need to delete anything from the phone
b4 you put a new rom so my question is how I save the
important apps and data and if i can skip all the crap i used to have??
Question
Hi! I have a Galaxy S4 LTE (I9506) and i'm on stock rom (4.4.2, I9506XXUCNF3). I successfully installed a TWRP recovery via ODIN. Root done and it works. Now i want to flash the PAC lollipop ROM. Do i need something else to do before flashing? Thank you in forward!
Hello thanks for letting me join this forum i have two stock kitkat 4.4.4 s3 basic mobiles that need updating any help would be appreciated in doing this as ive never done this before have tried to flash but dont seem to work ive got root gapps etc .looked at twrp etc but it wont update cleared cache etc can anyone point me in the right direction as i am a complete noob at this .Thanks .OK guys ive updated one to 5.1 have you any recommendations next operating system can i flash twrp flashify windows 10 a nightmare with sp flash tools got there in the end thanks.
Yeah, I had the same problem too. I'm using: [ROM] [6.0.1] Unofficial Sandstrangers LineageOS/CyanogenMod13 , Haven't had any problems so far, and it seems just as fast as the stock ROMS.
Assuming the lollipop ROM you flashed is the same as mine, you should be able to flash any new ROMs directly from TWRP now.
