Yes: First: do not even dream about using Sonys AOSP kernel + blobs - it just won't work.

The IOCTL's in Sonys AOSP kernel doesn't match the ones used by the camera blobs - while this is easy to patch, it won't help you as the camera <-> 'aosp'-gralloc blobs are incompatible.

Apart from that it's pretty straight forward: You'll need these 3 patches:

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saadmengal:
Hello i want to root my 4.2.2. Nexus 7. Its latest android OS.

I successfully unlocked, but for root

the USB DEBUGGING thing is not being happend.

As i have to touch to authorize the computer.

Is there another way i could do it.

I am not that good with Androids still i am a bit techy. So a little help would be awesome.

I need to root my nexus to install DroidMote Server so i can use my nexus 4 to operate Nexus 7.

Is that a good idea?

Download superuser or superSU binary in your device, install or boot a custom recovery (CWM, TWRP) using fastboot and then flash the su binary you have downloaded previously with the recovery.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Long813:
I just want to verify if this is a function on Sense 5.0.

Coming from Nova Launcher, the hide apps function would only hide the icon in the drawer it self. For me, I loved this function as I had a great organizational method this way.

It seems that Sense 5.0 will hide the app icon on the app draw + any home screens it is currently on.

I do like Sense 5.0, so I don't want to switch over to Nova just yet, so, does anyone know if there is a work around for this?

Maybe an app (seems redundant), or maybe I can look into some other custom ROMs and see if the devs might be working on it.

[Nokia Lumia 920] rotter123:
Hey all , I have my Lumia 920 for a month and mine is RM_821 from Poland.

and I saw that a Dev Rom is our for me , so I want to know what does it give me if I flash the rom ?
[Nokia Lumia 920] F_T_B:
I have it on my Lumia 920. What I can notice thus far is:

1. 4G is enabled on the Lumia 920, if it isn't now with the firmware that you have.

2. There is no mobile operator branding anywhere and the extra apps are kept to a minimum.

You can update/download them after just like you normally can.

3. I think, but can't really tell for sure, that the developer firmware gets better signal.

I never saw anything but H and H+ -- HSPA and HSPA+ -- next to the signal bars, whereas before I saw G, 3G and 3G+ as well.

I think you also get slughtly better download speeds via cellular network.

4. It seems to be a tad better in terms of fluidity compared to the Orange firmware that I used to have before.

It doesn't stutter anymore as much as it did.

Not sure what else, really.

1.

Remember differences between prototype/sample and retail devices...

So check if your device is retail... remove battery look on label...

"Not for sale" or something similar could be on label...

2.

Bootloader... maybe for Tizen Special Bootloader...

I have read short something about this somewhere forgotten...

Because Tizen is cra... :D

So the Question is, if you can generally update your Tizen devices with Tizen for instance...

Or you have never tried... Maybe other problem...

3.

Maybe better or safer choice is to use your Tizen devices with Tizen...

There are different Versions available... instead risk to brick your Tizen device, by stupid mistake.

4.

You could sell your Tizen device. :D

Also more usefull... in my eyes... dump Bootloader or whole memory from S3...

Maybe then more chance to port to S8500/S8530/S8600...

If you need S3 with Android... buy S3. :D

Or maybe some S3 user would exchange...

[Tizen Software Development] Sylar:
From tizen.org:

"For the Tizen platform, the boot loader

comes in two parts. The first part is the primary boot loader and the second part is the

secondary boot loader. The primary boot loader is the Samsung proprietary boot loader and is

also called s-boot. The secondary boot loader is the open source boot loader u-boot, which is

customized further for the Tizen platform. "

UPDATE:

This is the files that are in the System of the device, as you can see there is u-boot and s-boot. But how to launch s-boot and not u-boot bootloader?

I have my RD-PQ only 1 month...

...and in theory I think the best idea what you can do with RD-PQ is playing Android Games. :D

I am only too wimpy to try self... :D :D

The idea is...

I9300 sboot.bin to rename into s-boot-mmc.bin...

Create valid TAR file... flash with lthor...

WARNING! Untested... I could be absolute wrong... :o

For Windows user I could create test package...

As example I have attached revert_2.2.1_bootloader.tar.gz in Windowstool...

This is only example that THOR flasher exist for Windows and it is possible to use it...

Correct.

This is inside s-boot-mmc.bin

You can find this text string... inside...

volume up/down key
and enter the mode using power key

So I have replaced original s-boot-mmc.bin...

Also tried with USB Jig for Enter Download Mode...

Later I will check carefully... if maybe output over UART is possible... :o

Here with RD-PQ I can open device... and play with SD... and if no luck with Tweezers... then next direct eMMC... :o :o
