How to ODIN ATT S5 Active back to stock? topic

Hey there gang.

My sister has an S5 Active and has somehow managed to make her rom unusable. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. I'm thinking of using ODIN to flash her back to stock as download mode seems to be the only mode functioning. Anyone have the proper files for this? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

[Q] Sony Xperia Active CM10 No Camera topic

Hey there guys,

I recently hit a problem on rooting and installing cm10 on an Xperia Active.
Here the actual facts:
Android 4.1.2,
CyanogenMod: 10-20131006-NGIHTLY-satsuma,
Kernel- Version: 2.6.32.61-MESA-HYBRID-v4.8 (seems to be the only kernel working since I receive a black screen using the kernel delivered in the cm10 Rom from above)

So here the Problem: There is no camera app on the device right now. Installing the Honami- Camera doesn't work either.
Any ideas? I'm pretty new in this Rooting/ Custom- ROM stuff, so please don't kill me if the solution is obvios.

Regards glu

[Q] "Mobile radio active" battery drain on Lollipop 5.0.2 topic

Has anyone found a solution for this yet? This thing is draining my battery like crazy. Gets me at the most 2 hours screen on time (half of what I used to get on KK). Tried both CM12 and AICP and both have this same issue.

Here is a link to my battery stats - Cell Standby seems to be the biggest battery user when this Mobile Radio Active is going "nuts".

If I catch it early then reboot temporarily fixes the issue but if I don't then in a day's use this Mobile Radio Active can take up to 8-9 Hours of activity! Please help!

custom recovery on the active topic

Ok I have been reading a couple of forums and some people say you can out a custom recovery on the active and some say you would only brick your phone trying. I have it rooted, I would like to try a custom ROM but I am used to the galaxy s3 and the htc one m8 in the way of custom Roms which are easy to do.

[Q] Samsung S5 Active - UMTS AWS (B IV) topic

Hello All,

Question: How can I enable UMTS AWS (B4) on Samsung Galaxy S5 Active (Canadian variant, although if there is any solution to AT&T variant it probably works for this one as well)?
I have tried all the methods that I could have found on XDA or elsewhere but had no luck (incl. QPST/QXDM NV entry, hidden menus, ...). On QPST when I retrieve the Freqs from my phone all bands are selected but there is no B4 (AWS). Is there something that I am missing? BTW, when I want to write to my phone (after using QXDM to enable writing), QPST throws an exception which indicates that phone has been disconnected (which is not the case). Is there any known method which can fix this issue and have UMTS AWS enabled on S5 Active?

A broader question: Since S5 and S5 Active use the same chips (my understanding), is it even possible that this be a HW limitation on Active?

Cheers

Active Display Issues topic

I am having trouble with the active display on my moto x 2013 lately.
The digits appear broken. They don't render completely. Some times they overlap.

I have attached a screen shot of the problem I am facing.
Has anybody faced this issue before?

Looking for some assistance on how to fix this issue.
