This is a pretty basic question, but I can't find the answer anywhere even though I'm a senior member. I asked in XDA assist, but was shot down somewhat rudely for being a senior member and posting there. :(

Next to my username when I post, there's a little green check mark. I thought that was just saying that that was me, but then I saw it on other users as well. Someone else asked about it, but their question was never answered: http://xdaforums.com/general/xda-assist/forum-question-whats-green-check-mark-t3115387

There's other symbols too, usually just an empty yellow circle. What do those mean, and where could I have found out without asking?

Also, how did I become a senior member?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
That is the number of thanks you have given to other people.
[General Questions and Answers] HΞAT65534vr:
Green checkmark means your online, and empty circle is offline. I'LL let someone else answer the senior member question, because i dont know all of the details of being one.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
You became a senior member when you reached a total of 100 posts.

As a former XDA Assist team member I can tell you that senior members are expected to have learned their way around XDA to find their own answers via searching. Also, XDA Assist is not where you go to find answers to a question, its intended for new users that aren't familiar with navigating the site, when they post a question, the team links them to the most appropriate forum/thread where they might find their answer after posting where they are directed.

After a year you can apply to become a Recognized Contributor if you think you've earned it, or someone can recommend you if they feel you have been a productive, contributing and knowledgeable member.

You can both go here to learn some details of the site.

[Q] Help Using ADB

Hi,

I'm currently trying to use adb to pull some data from my phone but i always get "error: closed". Im running it from cmd.

When I use the command "adb devices" to see if my phone is connected, I get something different from the others is i am getting

XXXXXX sideload

instead of what most other people got

I have CyanogenMod on it and I don't know how to change the build.prop on it if I can't use the touch screen (P.S. I don't have a physical home button).
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If none of the touch feature is working then it is a ROM issue that you'll have to get the developer of the ROM to fix.

---------- Post added at 07:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:13 PM ----------

What mode is your device in when you run the command?
[General Questions and Answers] wacamole:
The cellphone is in recovery mode and selected the option "apply update from ADB"

in the cmd shows the serial number and next to it "sideload"
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
That's because applying an update from adb is called sideloading. If you were trying to just adb push or pull a file or a log or something like that when you're not in the "apply update from adb" mode you should get the normal result.

Z5C Restore

Hey, I just unlock the bootloader of my Z5 Compact and tried some ROMs but I want to get back to the stock system, so I flashed the stock ROM and relock the bootloader, but some things like Camera and image enhance doesn't work properly.

Help me! I have corrupted root files!

Hi guys and I would like to ask a question, I have a flare s3 v2 x300 power and I rooted with Baidu. Somehow it worked FIRST. Then after receiving ownership of the phone, it wasn't rooted. I tried kingroot, kingoroot, framaroot, z4root, 360 root, universal androot,baidu,iroot (PC and Mobile),and tried flashing. I hard resetted my phone two times and still no. So this is the picture of the root files. Can't delete them since I don't have root. Tried terminal emulator too, and still no.

Here you can find a custom recovery preferably twrp for your phone:

http://thefirmwarehub.com/custom-recovery-for-cherry-mobile-flare-s3/

Download and flash with sp flash tool on pc, there are tons of tutorials on YouTube etc.

If successful you can flash super su zip in custom recovery - the very best way to get solid root.. All this one click solutions are not always reliable..

I have cyanogenmod 4.3.1 android on my samsung galaxy s4 mini.... do i need new cm 13 recovery or I can just put 6.0 android cm 13 cyanogenmod on old recovery?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
CWM recovery is no longer supported, it is a dead project and DO NOT use the built in CM recovery, it gives too many issues on too many devices.

Find the newest version of TWRP recovery for your model number. If there is an officially supported TWRP for your model number then you might be able to use TWRP manager app, it will make finding your model recovery easy and it will flash it for you and boot you to the new recovery. Its pretty simple if your recovery has official support from the TWRP team devs.

If you find it in .img format you can flash it with flashify.

If you find it in .zip format you can flash it in the recovery you have now just like you do a ROM .zip, after flashing it don't reboot, instead, go back to main menu in recovery, if you have CWM recovery you need to select the "advanced" option then on the next menu select "reboot recovery" and it will boot into your new recovery that you just flashed, then you can go from there with whatever else you flash.

If you find TWRP in .zip and you have an older TWRP right now instead of CWM then you need to flash the .zip like you do a ROM, then after flashing return to home screen in TWRP and select the "reboot" option, then select "reboot recovery" and you'll boot to the new recovery and you can go from there with whatever you're flashing.

Sorry buddy but discussion of any kind of warez or its' uses is not permitted at XDA at all and Lucky Patcher is actually the least liked of all the softwares that are considered warez. Warez is anything that has the ability to get paid features, items and apps for free, this steals from the developers and this is a site created by developers, the kind of people Lucky Patcher steals from every day.

Down to two Errors... Hoping for help

Some one helped get me this far, but I cant seem to progress past these two points:

Error #1

packages/apps/Bluetooth/jni/com_android_bluetooth_a2dp.cpp:164:74: error: too few arguments to function

if ( (status = sBluetoothA2dpInterface->init(&sBluetoothA2dpCallbacks)) != BT_STATUS_SUCCESS)

I've compared it to similar coding, I cant see where the problem lies, maybe someone can help.

Error #2 a) packages/apps/Bluetooth/jni/com_android_bluetooth_btservice_AdapterService.cpp :1136:26: error: 'const struct bt_interface_t' has no member named 'interop_database_clear'

sBluetoothInterface->interop_database_clear();

Heres the actual code its talking about:

static void interopDatabaseClearNative(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj) {

ALOGV("%s()", __FUNCTION__);

if (!sBluetoothInterface) return;

sBluetoothInterface->interop_database_clear();

}

Error #2 b) packages/apps/Bluetooth/jni/com_android_bluetooth_btservice_AdapterService.cpp :1150:26: error: 'const struct bt_interface_t' has no member named 'interop_database_add'

sBluetoothInterface->interop_database_add(feature, (bt_bdaddr_t *)addr, length);

And here the actual code for this one:

}

sBluetoothInterface->interop_database_add(feature, (bt_bdaddr_t *)addr, length);

env->ReleaseByteArrayElements(address, addr, 0);

}

And both pieces fit together like so:

static void interopDatabaseClearNative(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj) {

ALOGV("%s()", __FUNCTION__);

if (!sBluetoothInterface) return;

sBluetoothInterface->interop_database_clear();

}

static void interopDatabaseAddNative(JNIEnv *env, jobject obj, int feature,

jbyteArray address, int length) {

ALOGV("%s()", __FUNCTION__);

if (!sBluetoothInterface) return;

jbyte *addr = env->GetByteArrayElements(address, NULL);

if (addr == NULL) {

jniThrowIOException(env, EINVAL);

return;

}

sBluetoothInterface->interop_database_add(feature, (bt_bdaddr_t *)addr, length);

env->ReleaseByteArrayElements(address, addr, 0);

}

I cant figure it out. The code looks fine to me, But I dont really understand code. Wondring if the computer is reading it properly. I would also really love to know how to edit it so I can continue my build. Really appreciate any help.

It's always possible that some apps don't work properly, especially with low end devices.. As long as your stock camera works there's nothing to worry.. When you consider that your phones camera has 5/2 MP the question is if this low resolution is causing the problems with some apps.. Maybe it isn't capable of doing the functions desired

Bootloop S6

Recently I've rooted my S6 and so far so good. Problem started when I downloaded XPOSED Framework x64 for my S6.

I've read the bootloop warnings and such and thought I had the correct .zip on my SD-card. It wasn't.

Problem right now is that it's in a bootloop and I can't enter recovery mode like tutorials say I should do.

Only menu I am able to enter is ODIN mode, but I can't find a flashable zip that removes XPOSED Framework from my device.

Is there any way for me to delete it without entering recovery mode?

Thanks in advance.

PS. I can't seem to get a log from booting so sorry for that

Is this the correct thread to ask for tablet recommendations?

I am eyeing the samsung galaxy tab s2 8.0 wifi edition even though some have said the older model tab s 8.4 has a better screen.

Main usage would be very light gaming browsing youtube music movies etc no 3d development or anything really productive just a zone out lightweight tab camera usage would be minimal maybe the once off skype or chat roulette omegle lol not much comics or portrait usage tbh but a bit of app usage with reddit and assorted social apps. My main gripe atm is wanting to view and watch 4k content on a portable device. Whether that is available out yet or not i dont know.

Are there any 4k tabs out yet? also do any tabs outshine any others exceptionally (like the manufacturers just got it right)? I know nvidia shield tab k1 now is near golden perfect after the first initial slew of bad errors and issues

I was going to get the pixel c for example but everything so far that i have heard about it has been utterly utterly bad and negative. X1 tablet and all I think I will wait for Nvidias next shield tab.

I know samsung have good update support and hopefully the tab s2 will recieve android updates for some time so it seems to be my natural choice.

Hello everyone.

Currently I have a few devices I need to get low-level access/root to --- an Alcatel One Touch Fierce that needs root for a complete backup, and an old Note 10.1 (N8013) stuck in a permanent bootloop. I'm looking for desktop flashing tools to help service these things but am overwhelmed by the pages of Google searches and forum posts, not to mention turned off by the intense sketchiness.

Can anyone point me to some Windows tools that can flash/root these devices? The Alcatel runs on a MT6589 with JB 4.2.2 and the Note is a JB era Samsung device with a custom ROM and a stalled boot cycle.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you give me the model number for the Alcatel device I'll see what I can find for you.

For the note 10.1, what region and/or carrier is it from?

You can go to Sammobile or samsung-updates and use your model number to find the stock firmware, make sure you get the firmware for your region/carrier, there will be many different available firmwares for that model for different regions/carriers.

When you find the right one, download it and then install the newest version of Odin for windows on your PC and use it yo flash the firmware, the device must be in download mode(volume down+home+power, if you don't have a home button, then it is volume down+power, then press up at the caution screen to enter download mode.) To simplify this, there may be a guide online for doing this on your model.

Do a google search for :

"Return to stock note 10.1 GT-N8013"

That should give you what you need to restore the device.

For the Alcatel, do the same thing, search for:

"Return to stock (the Alcatel model number"

If its firmware and tools are available, you'll find it.

ZTE Blade L2 ROM Issue.

Hey everyone, I'm new here and my problem is quite complicated but I was hoping that someone could help me. So basically I've had my ZTE Blade L2 for almost two years, never had problems with it apart from the storage partition which wouldn't let me access my SD card, the phone storage was divide in two and had internal and phone storage. A few months back my phone literally died for no reason so I sent it to factory to get it fixed and when it came back the storage partition was gone so now I had Internal Storage (2gb) and SD card (4gb) everything has been fine and I was quite happy with my phone until yesterday, I must have downloaded a bad apk or something because every time I rebooted my phone it would go into recovery mode automatically and I had to factory reset it from there and reboot it from there to be able to get past it every time, even sometimes it wouldn't work. Also when it did work, as soon as I was able to manage desktop etc I'd get a "unfortunately launcher has stopped" error, over and over again. The only way to fix this was for me to root my phone and try a custom rom which fixed the booting problem and the launcher error BUT then the ROM started crashing countless times so I switched to another one, same thing happened every time I opened up an app, my cousin suggested that I should install this ROM called mystic OS so I did (v5 BTW) and now everything that was messing up earlier is fine but thing is, now my SD card is written as phone storage and phone storage as SD card and phone storage (named as SD card now) doesn't have more than 5mb. Also for some reason my sim card can't be found either. I've spent all night trying to fix this but can't see to come up with anything, should I change to mystic os v7? Would that fix it? Thank you and I'd appreciate your help!
