Creating ROM from OTA is really easy, I don't like ROMs which is built from sources so I don't never use AOSP ROMs..

Creating Rom OTA (the easy way):

Make Custom nandroid backup via Nexus toolkit: System folder and boot files "system.img" & "boot.img"

then add system.img and boot.img to .zip file and then you have to use Ubuntu to install Dsixda's Android kitchen and then add the .ZIP file to Original_update folder.

Then open menu.sh via terminal and then choose:

"1. Set up working folder from ROM"

when it asks something then always write yes, except then if it asks do you wan't to delete recovery bla bla bla...

and when it asks about the update script then select the default one "amend bla bla bla (1)"

Now it is ready to begin modifying it..

select (0) and then (11) and de-odex ROM then add init.d support, add busybox and root permissions, extract boot.img and ipen default.prop from boot_extracted folder and change the ro.secure line from 0 to 1, then it is insecured.. build boot.img from the extracted files..

then (99) build ROM..

or download apktools and modify apps, e.g. enabling rotation from default android launcher or from lockscreen..

etc.

It's easy.. but building ROM from sources is harder and requires enough good PC with 64-bit CPU..

:DDDd
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Wrong, ro.secure=0 IS already insecure.. And another tip: ccache.

Lol... This is a Nexus, why don't you like to build from source? That's a joke, right? Seems to me that you are holding it wrong.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mrgnex:
Isn't that just modifying my current ROM with my own name?

Building from source is a lot harder, or isn't it?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] EddyOS:
It's not hard to build from source, it just takes a LONG time! Then you've gotta learn how to add mods from Gerrit code, etc. and it can be annoying.

Making a ROM using dsixda's kitchen is easier as you're using the stock image as a base so it'll work but you've then got more of a task getting new code in as you've gotta decompile it all, edit it and then recompile
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carlos_Manuel:
Yep, then you make own ROM from the stock ROM.. :D

Building ROM from source is different thing and harder.. :D

---------- Post added at 02:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 PM ----------

oh yeah, sorry: from 1 to 0! :D

I don't like AOSP ROMs, except CM ROMs but I don't want to use CM ROM on my Nexus. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sporkette:
Ummm. Any ROM you compile is from source. It doesn't take a long time. My dual core 2.4 GH laptop will do it in a couple hours. There are several tutorials online. If you're willing to learn it's not that hard. Compiling aosp or cm is pretty much the same process.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Janash:
Hi all,

I have a strange problem with my phone. Hope someone will be able to help me.

I was not sure if my phone is unlocked when I came on holiday. Bought and put a different provider sim card and there was no signal. Also showed nothing to type unlocking code, so I thought that maybe something with a new sim card is wrong.

I bought a second card from another provider to be sure. On the screen appeared: enter sim network unlock code or something like that. ok so I have to unlock.

Now the strangest thing. when I put back my old sim card (o2), on the screen appeared again: enter sim network unlock code!

Since then I can not use the phone because it still asks for the unlock code.

I tried to change the soft but still do not have signal and no longer asks for the unlock code. anyone know how to force a window to enter the code?

I tried unlocking code from a cellunlocker but not working and and when i switched on my mobile is showing invalid SIM card.

someone has any ideas of ​​what i can do with it?

sry for my english ;)

i dont know how to install this

please somebody help me. i want to install the firmware on my device but i dont know how.

please tell me how to install this.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] prometej-zg:
1.) Download firmware for your model. There are firmwares for two available version: S7-931u and S7-931w, so choose the one you have.

2.) You will need an SD card to make firmware install/upgrade. Put SD Card into your SD card slot on your Mediapad 7 Lite.

3.) Connect your tablet to PC in MTP mode.

4.) BACKUP, BACKUP, BACKUP everything what is important to you and resides on internal memory of tablet (doesn't affect external SD card)

4.) Unpack downloaded firmware somwhere on your PC (e.g Desktop). You probably will have now folder update and instruction.pdf. Open PDF if you want to follow their guide - basically it is the same thing as my guide.

5.) Move or copy dload folder to the root of SD card (in PDF says "father" directory, but it actually root of SD card)

6.) Turn off tablet, put SD card (probably you didn't even take it out)

7.) Turn on tablet (if SD card is already inside or didn't start)

8.) Wait for "gears" Android logo - means it is in "recovery" mode.

9.) Wait for firmware upgrade to finish. (Says OK if finished, or FAIL if something went wrong)

10.) Tablet is probably going to restart itself couple of times.

11.) Adjust your initial settings and enjoy.

If unsure - follow PDF guide.

Hopefully, this will help you.

P.S. Just for the record, this is almost year old firmware so don't expect any miracles with this upgrade. Seems that no one at Huawei is interested in doing some new firmware for this tablet. That is a shame.

I am using huawei mediapad youth s7-701u. Can u show me how to upgrade my model from firmware on huawei website?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] prometej-zg:
Is this your model?

EDIT:

If this is your model, then download appropriate firmware for your tablet, and there is a PDF guide inside firmware ZIP file.

As I can see, you can use the same procedure to upgrade firmware like I wrote in my posts about upgrading Mediapad 7 Lite.

Don't

accidentally

download and flash wrong firmware

, cause it probably going to

brick your tablet

! Be careful.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] hoangchau113:

It is my model. But when I press *#*#4636#*#* on dialer, there is nothing appear. So that I can not set my device in Umts only mode. What should I do to set my device in this mode?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] prometej-zg:
I don't have Youth model, so can't tell if this is the same on your tablet too, but...

Did you try to (un)check your => Settings > (Wireless & Mobile Section) > More... > Mobile Networks > Use only 2G networks?

Well if *#*#4636#*#* is not working for you (just to say - it is not working for me either, but I didn't check it until now, cause I always use 3G or WiFi :o), you can try to use app on Google Play store called Radio Switcher which makes the same thing. ;)

Try, maybe that helps. Good luck.

[Thunderbolt General] RBarnett09:
Since unlocking phones (for carrier use) becomes illegal starting tomorrow, we have made a petition to fight back.

Please sign!

https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/make-unlocking-cell-phones-legal/1g9KhZG7
[Thunderbolt General] Milimbar:
You can do nothing with a petition like this now, this is scheduled to be looked at every 3 years, in 3 years you will have a chance to be heard and get this changed, however, we are stuck with this for at least 3 years.
[Thunderbolt General] tm24fan8:
Indeed. I'm sure the White House is getting a nice chuckle from this petition.
[Thunderbolt General] santod040:
Here's the thing about what people may see as a pointless petition.

They are all pointless until created. No matter if this will make any difference or not.

Petitions aren't meant to go by guidelines or by what the current law or cycle of voting represents.

In fact, if we all just sat idly by while things happen around us and shrug our shoulders because well, that's what the law is and it doesn't come back up for discussion for 10 years, so let's just leave it as is, even though the majority of us are against it.

I guess my point is, no matter how small of a change or difference one person may think they will be or make, unless they start somewhere, they may as well roll over like everyone else.

Change starts with YOU!

(or you can accept things for the way they are dealt to you)
[Thunderbolt General] disconnecktie:
Santod is right. If enough people sign it will get attention and maybe it will be enough that it doesn't have to wait for three years before it is brought up again. If we keep allowing the cell companies to control how we use our property then eventually we won't have any control of it. This kind of crap needs to stop somewhere. This idea of not allowing us to decide if we want to stay with a specific carrier is bs. Would you like it if a bank said you had to remain in the same property, exactly the way it was originally purchased for the duration of the contract? Probably not.
[Thunderbolt General] mobitote:
Nexus 4, 7, 10 ... ++ More Nexus is the way to go now. Besides, I font see the point in an ithing or win8.

A reason to get one now and get away from VZW, I say.
[Thunderbolt General] mike.s:
Why is this crap being posted in forums for Verizon phones? It simply doesn't apply - VZW has never carrier locked their phones.
[Thunderbolt General] RBarnett09:
Apparently you don't understand.

It will be illegal for us to unlock our phones to use them how we want to... HTC or not.
[Thunderbolt General] disconnecktie:
This law affects all carriers. The only way around it is to get your carrier to unlock the phone for you or buy an unlocked phone from the start. They are only making it illegal to unlock your phone without their knowledge or permission.
[Thunderbolt General] RBarnett09:
This definitely won't stop most people.
[Thunderbolt General] disconnecktie:
A $500,000 fine and 5 years in prison sounds like a pretty good deterrent to keep most people from doing though. I think they are mostly targeting the businesses that are capitalizing on something that the carrier will do for people most of the time. I think part of the problem is that people get a phone on contract and since the phone is subsidized when they don't pay their bill the phone company eats the cost of the phone. If they are able to unlock the phone and use it somewhere else they basically get a free phone.
[Thunderbolt General] Dark Jedi:
Plus from what I heard on the radio if you own a phone already then you can unlock it and flash it to whatever carrier. Online petitions are a joke. As you can't prove the people existence because of of no signatures. I could type out ten thousand names names easily. You want change? You want action? Then call your congressmen or woman and voice your dislikes. Have your family,friends,coworkers, and so on to call. Tell them you are not happy and unless you see action you will vote for the other guy. Keep calling and if enough people calls something might be done.

Or you could go the easier route and just buy a google branded phone and not have to worry about the stupid law lol. It is funny people don't seem to care about stuff till its to late.
[Thunderbolt General] RBarnett09:
Holy....

I was unaware of that kind of punishment. That's insane.

How would someone get caught unlocking a phone though?
[Thunderbolt General] disconnecktie:
I'm pretty sure that the esn will tell the new carrier where the phone came from. Plus you would have to know because unlocking it is probably different depending on which carrier you are coming from. There was a law passed recently that makes it illegal to take a phone with a bad esn and unlock it to use with a different carrier as well. The major carriers also have the ability to make a bad esn phone no good across most of the other carriers too.
[Thunderbolt General] tm24fan8:
Alright fair enough, good job guys!
[Thunderbolt General] Dark Jedi:
Translation they agree but not really going to do much about it lol.
[Thunderbolt General] Milimbar:
I signed it also, and just got my e-mail like 35min ago.

I don't know if it will change anything short term, but if nothing else.... at least next time it comes up for review it should turn out more favorably. Hopefully they will step in and push through some intermediate legislation before the next scheduled review though.
[Thunderbolt General] tm24fan8:
That would be nice, but would require Congress to stop bickering for more than a minute...
[Thunderbolt General] CinciTech:
I saw this and thought the same, what's this really going to accomplish? And then the posted article where it apparently did accomplish something. Seems like that's not always the case... But in general, I guess it's not a ton of effort to click in and sign an online petition, so if my one vote does almost-nothing-but-still-something, I guess the return on investment is slightly higher than what I get for typing a single forum post.

Although, if the law is meant to keep people from ditching their carrier and not paying their bill and having the phone "for free", there is the spot they're going to get on their credit when it goes to collections. Getting denied for credit or getting a worse rate for the next 7 years doesn't seem completely devoid of consequence.
[Thunderbolt General] RBarnett09:
This law will be overturned... I can almost guarantee you.

Sit back and wait.

I'm glad I signed this petition. My phone is MY property.
[Thunderbolt General] CinciTech:
Smenatics maybe, but.. I love the idea, but I'm not sure I think this applies in all cases. If you buy a $500 phone for $200 and a 2yr contract agreement, you still owe 2 years of paying on your contract for the phone. If I buy a $5000 car for $2000 and 2yrs of payments, they will take it back if I fail to make good on my end of the contract. So it's not fully 'mine' until I've fulfilled all agreed-to obligations. Although on the flip side, no one is saying I can't install neon and nitrous or modify the engine in my not-yet-paid-off car.

I'll agree with "Once I've paid for my phone and all attached contractual obligations, my phone is MY property."
