I am using a galaxy s5 running on android 5.0 and i cant update to the latest version. So I was thinking can i update using an sd card by downloading the os into the sdcard and from there updating is that possible?
I have tried removing and remounting SD card, both while phone is on and off. I have tried to boot the SD card through storage settings, notering works.
I have two Galaxy 5 phones - one downloaded and installed the AT&T update fine. The other downloaded the update, then rebooted to install, which it started to do, but five or so seconds into it, it stopped and went directly to the home page with no install. OF course, now I have to wait another 24 hours to re-try the download (and whoever came up with THAT i24-hour thing should be fired). Is there a way to just directly install what was downloaded without having to wait the half-hour or so it took to download?
I have an AT&T Galaxy S5 that runs kit-kat. I got the phone unlocked to use with a different carrier. When i try to update the OS it says its up to date. How can I update to Lollipop 5?
Okay. I'll see if this posts. I am using Android 2.1 and AT&T told me I could "easily" upgrade to Android 4 using KEIS. I downloaded the program, updated to Version 2.3.2.12074_13. Installed okay. I connected and got the message "device not supported by KEIS 2."
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6. The phone updated to 5.1.1 and after that the phone prompts to update security settings for email account. Then it will take you to a phone encryption screen and the encryption reboots the phone, but then keeps looping. I do have an exchange account and our company requires to have encryption on the phone. I just installed the Nine Exchange and it is working without any issues, but how can I fix the other way I access email?
After updating to latest and greatest android lollipop on galaxy s6, my gallery stopped working, I went to apps, force stopped and cleared cache on both gallery and camera, booted in safe mode and still have problem of gallery stopped. can't find answer anywhere, and Samsung was of no support other than to wipe my phone.
I've been noticing my battery draining pretty fast. I've had the phone just over a month and days when I'm at work all day, maybe do some surfing on my lunch or breaks, but nothing to excessive and my battery is down to like 35% when I get home. Before I was going under Settings->Battery and I noticed "Screen" was the number one offender for draining my battery. Which makes sense, it's a bright display and powering it takes a lot of juice. I don't know if it's coincidence or not, however, it's when I started noticing it after installing ICS. Now "Android OS" has replaced it at the top, by a LOT. Here is a list of my top five
I try to update my android after my phone told me to update it. So after it make restart, its opening black screen with galaxy s5 on it, and its restarting again and again
I try to make boot by clicking both 3 keys, after the boot upload its again trying to install the update software security and than its still making the same problem, try to connect throw pc by odin 3 or keys and its doesn't even connecting to programs, what can I do?
It looks like my galaxy did an auto update for android and now when I try to do a voice text or anything that opens the microphone, the X will not close it. I have to reboot the phone to get it to go away. Anyother way to force it to close?
Whenever I try to run the android update it says "Searching for server" then report, "Server connection failure". This goes running though either wireless or 3g connection. The SII works fine downloading/uploading everything/everywhere else and on any connection, it has me baffled. It has worked before as it did a couple of updates when I first bought this really great phone!
after installing the Android 5.1.1 update on my Galaxy S6 edge almost all home screen icons have disappeared, even the bottom ones like phone, contacts and messages.The apps icons in the app drawer have also completely disappeared. The apps are still there and working, but I can only access them when I get a new notification.I have tried rebooting several times, and clearing the Touchwiz launcher data, but nothing changes.
after the update was finished all my contacts were gone all the photos for the past year and a half everything on my SD card was completely gone even my sim card didn't have any more contacts on it. It was updating when I went back inside and didn't even pump me for the update or to remove my sd card.
For the first two days it was working properly but after a software update of 133.33 mb for touchwiz it suddenly stopped detecting my sim card, i used the same sim card in an another phone, the sim was ok. when i tried another other sim card in the galaxy s5 it was not detecting it. Also i tried to register the mobile network but a message was displaying "insert sim card to access network". I don't know what to do now as the phone was bought from japan but m using it in India.
I have a Sprint S5 running stock Lollipop. I have moved any apps that can be to the SD card. Anytime those apps are updated, they move back to the device storage. I got this phone shortly before Sprint pushed the Lollipop update so I cannot say for sure if I was having this issue prior to Lollipop.
how to get rid of this ICS update and update into the old android version. I am having some serious problems whith my phone after ICS update (physical keyboard not working, problems in adding phone contacts, reboots after every app close, acting slow).
after updating to Android 4 the SD is no longer detected as drive with a drive Letter but the Xperia ray is detected as mobile device with the SD card below. Due to this the Navigon Fresh SW don't detect the mobile as Navigon device as it did before. It is now mandatory to switch off the Phone, open it, and put the SD card into a card reader. Now the Navigon fresh detects it as Android phone and Updates can be performed. how to mount the SD card with drive letter to avoid this?
I can not update my ray and that the update to Android 4.0.4 is available for my number if from there 5 days, anyone has the same problem??? My number is 1252-1255, i think it corresponds to a ray of the Spanish region.
I have a samsung galaxy s2 with android 4.0.4 and recently I started getting the message (sim card full) but I have no contacts nor messages stored in the sim card.I went to vodafone (Portugal) and they gave me a new 4G sim card as they are replacing all 3G cards.
I just picked up the GW620 for my wife (it's our first Android device) and being the tinkerer that I am, looked into the rooting situation for it.I wasn't aware that Android 1.5 was lacking quite a lot of the features of 1.6 and 2.0 but I was hoping there would be an update from Rogers.
I just contacted LG's live chat support and he said that there wouldn't be an update for the GW620 as it's a combination of Android and S-Class.Would it be possible to update to 1.6 via other methods?
Considering buying one of these, either this or the ZTE Blade (Orange San Francisco in UK). The Orange San Francisco is cheaper and has a bigger screen with more resolution, but the Wildfire looks more solid. Can I put 2.2 or 2.3 on it though?
Currently my android v 2.3.4 and Build version 4. How can i update android v4. Android v4 is available now? If it is how can i update? When i updating is it losse my existing data?
I have been trying to update my x10 from 1.6 to 2.1, however even when i follow the videos which have been posted i cannot for the life of me work out how to get it to update to 2.1. It just keeps saying that it has the most up to date software and thats it, and my phone hasn't updated!
I have just brought a Xperia X8. I am trying to upgrade it to Android 2.1 from 1.6. Both Pc companion and Update services both say my phone is up to date.
I would like to know how can I update my android 1.6 to android 2.0? I have been using these phone for less than 1 month and I still don't have the idea how to update it..
