I didn't name a specific module because there's probably more than one module to do what you're looking for and each of them will probably give different results. That's where doing your own research to find the details comes into play.

So, here goes... I pre-ordered 3 of the new 7th gen Amazon Fire 7 tablets for the kids and I've been desperately trying to install Google Play Services/Store on them for over an hour now. I'm far from an android noob, but this is my first Fire experience and it's proving frustrating. I'm not trying to root/ROM 3 new tablets that I bought for our kids, so I haven't even looked to see if the bootloader is even unlocked yet, much less researched root methods. If anyone has had any success installing Play on one of these devices that literally just released today, I would be infinitely thankful for any help you could give me!

Need help getting custom rom on lg volt 2

So I have an lg volt 2 on 5.1.1 from boost mobile and recently found out that installing a custom rom may fix my problems. So my problems are outdated android ver, I want the ability to format my sd as internal storage, and I want my phone to be less laggy (after typing for a bit it begins to lag for some reason sometimes). So I was just wondering would a custom rom fix my problems and if so what do I need to do. Thanks in advance for the help.
[General Questions and Answers] mremixer:
Well considering that the title is ask any question noob friendly and the stickys make a point of no question being too dumb and for people to be understanding and tolerant etc WRITTEN BY YOURSELF or CONTRIBUTED BY YOU, dont you think you should moderate by example instead of coming across so harsh and ignoring your own guidelines/rules.

I didnt ask my original question because I felt it was against the rules to ask out of designated threads and it seemed more pertinent to ask why I was having trouble, which thanks to the answer led to my own eureka moment.

Because of my ongoing recovery I have to explain things in detail so i dont miss things unfortunately this can lead to over explaining minute details of no consequence but id rather be sure of explaining myself in one long question than have to return and go over things again and again .

And isn't the point of forums and the written word to try and describe things in full I can't do this in real life anymore because my brain is slower now so i am taking advantage of the written word to compensate for what i've currently lost and am struggling to get back.

But hey thanks for the supportive tone and encouraging answer its appreciated and so noob friendly as well.

PS my original question was about cordova but its moot now coz I've gone a different way.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Lol, I wasn't being rude. I was basically saying that we could help you better and faster if you had just cut to the chase and told us what you needed or wanted to know instead of all the extraneous stuff. But, as you said, that is now moot.

And it's not a "shoot the breeze" ask any question thread, that kind of interaction/conversation is for the off topic forum here, not the typical Q&A forum.
[General Questions and Answers] northwindtrades:
You need similar soc and same kernel version.

So unless there isn't any lollipop ROM based on 3.18.x available it shouldn't boot at all and get stuck in the bootlogo.

[General Questions and Answers] maverickmacca:
Hi my YU Yuphoria 5010 started acting up since last week ,when i noticed that the phone was restarting randomly and the settings was missing and even if i clicked on the settings logo in the notification panel, nothing would happen .So i decided to flash a Cusstom ROM instead and boot into recovery.While trying to wipe cache,dalvik and data I got an error message "uable to mount data,cache ,system(invalid argument) and internal memory* was showing up as 0.So i thought my phone was bricked and tried reviving it with the sd card method.But everything else except for system flashed , and got an error FAILED (remote: flash write failure ) just for system .Anyway now I could boot into recovery using fastboot boot command and the internal memory started showing up correcty. The fastboot command is the only way i could get into recovery, if i try power+volume down it would just come up with the empty battery logo. After this i installed qualcomm drivers and manually changed the driver to Qualcomm HS-USB QD Loader 9008 and tried flashing through QFil with a flashable stock ROM and ended up with the error message:"Download Fail:System.Exception: Unable to download Flash Programmer using Sahara Protocol** at QC.QMSLPhone.Phone.QPHONEMS_SaharaArmPrgDownload(String sFileName)** at QC.SwDownloadDLL.SwDownload.QPHONEMSSaharaDownloadArmPrg(UInt64& version, String armPrgPath)

[General Questions and Answers] MigoMujahid:
Well, it might be bricked not hard bricked, hard bricked means end of the road, and you get no option but changing the board.

You say it's recognised in your PC somehow? Or i got that wrong?

If yes there must be a flash tool that is specific for nokia phones and you can flash the firmware using it.

The firmware can be found in google as well as the flash tool, give it a google search and you will get a good results.

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you're rooted, you can go to /data/system/gesture.key then either open gesture.key in a hex editor and edit the file to remove pattern or just delete the gesture.key file completely. I'm not sure if it stores your fingerprint in the same file or not, that's why you might have to edit the file instead of deleting it.

ROM question

Hi,

I have a galaxy s4 device (sgh-i337m) running under a KitKat based custom ROM.

I live in Canada, and because the number of ROMs for i337m is very poor I am planning to install a custom ROM from 9505 on it, probably something like this: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-develop/thor-s7-style-rom-v1-0-t3379891

I downloaded the ROM file and was about to flash it with TWRP, but before that I decided to double check some moments with more experienced guys:

1) Since the phones (9505 and i337m) are not identically same and most likely boot loaders are different , what do I do with boot.img file inside the new ROM file, should I leave it as is, or remove/replace it?

2) In terms of the frequencies, nothing is going to change, because the modem file is absent from the ROM file and that’s why the old settings of the modem will remain, right?
[General Questions and Answers] northwindtrades:
it's better you try to contact the rom developer of the 9505 about the compatibility of his roms on the 1337m.

they'll likely know the similiarities better.

as for boot.img what one usually do when they try to port a rom to another device is unpack it replace the zimage/kernel with the kernel/zimage of the device in question.but sometimes ramdisk files will also be needed to edited/replaced. another thing is the library files which may also be diffrent.leaving them as such will cause the device functions like audio,bluetooth etc... not to function because of the incompatible library files.

dunno about modem on samsung firmwares,hopefully someone will clear that up.

as for now you should try to contact the rom developer or refer to a complete rom porting guide for snapdragon devices.

good luck
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Yeah, modem incompatibility can brick a Samsung. Samsung bootloaders are tricky things and don't like mismatched modems. Depends on the model in question and the modem being used. But that would only matter if trying to use a different stock firmware, this shouldn't matter with custom ROMs because custom ROMs do not contain modems nor do they alter the existing modem in most cases. Some ROMs have a modem.bin, that is easily checked by looking in the ROM.zip.

This thread should help you get started, there will probably be details that you will have to troubleshoot. I think this is for stock based ROMs though(I think, this thread is dead but you can ask around here in other places. It'll probably be different porting custom ROMs than it is porting stock firmwares.

Things have changed in android since that thread was created so there's probably some things in newer versions of android that will have to be done differently than when the thread was created, probably even extra things that aren't even discussed.

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2295557

And then there's this for using custom ROMs

Trend plus s7580 black screen after flash ..

I had issues in my trend plus ... So i went to flash stock rom using odin ... I ticked repartition and nandroid wipe all and it flashed normally ... But the trend plus screen wasn't shoing anything but small lines
[General Questions and Answers] MigoMujahid:
That's it,.....you KILLED it.

You checked the "NAND Erase all" option in Odin, your phone is hard bricked, no recover from this, you need to replace the motherboard.

No but the phone is working ... I can hear the boot up song... Only the screen is not working ... It still goes to download mode
[General Questions and Answers] MigoMujahid:
Then what did you tick in Odin exactly???

Because there is no such option as "nandroid wipe all", there's an option says "NAND Erase All".

Yes i ticked nand erase all ... And now the screen doesn't work .what can i do
[General Questions and Answers] MigoMujahid:
Ok, you said it can boot into download mode again, right?

If so, try flashing again, but this time tick only "auto reboot" and "f reset time".

Although i feel it's useless because you might have hardware-ly bricked it.

What are dalvik heap size?

And heap growth limit?
[General Questions and Answers] Fobos531:
Dalvik is a virtual machine that runs applications and code written in Java and is used by Android.

VM (virtual machine) heap size is a Virtual Machine heap size of the phone. Heap size is the amount of RAM that can be allocated to an app. Each app is on a tiny Dalvik Virtual Machine. Each VM will have some heap space allocated.

Following this logic, heap growth limit is the increment by which the heap size can can grow by.

You need to get a new hardware switch(find it by searching using your model number), you need a soldering tool that can solder tiny points on the motherboard and you'll need small screwdrivers to open the phones casing.
