I'm not exactly a n00b but at the same time I could be. I've been gathering up knowledge on rooting, kernels, and ROMs for the past few months before, finally, put that knowledge to use and started customizing my Nexus 7(2013). Recently installed the developer preview of Lollipop because, well, who can wait? Now my next mission is finding a kernel that will allow me to overclock this lively Snapdragon S4 Pro chip. It clearly states that if is under clocked at 1.5, when it should easily reach 2ghz. Anybody know of such a kernel that will work with L?

Are you trying to get back into recovery from "no command"? If so hit the power button once and it'll take you to a list of options. From there you should be able to either revert to factory or install from SD.

As try to perform these actions

( revert to data or install from SD)

I get the message " No command"
[General Questions and Answers] Megaflop666:
Restore your backup from recovery. Obviously something didn't get setup correctly. My question is why do so many people keep trying to do this; it will slow down your device so much using external rather than internal.
[General Questions and Answers] :
Can't do that( Restoring backup from recovery)

[General Questions and Answers] Megaflop666:
Wait, you're on stock recovery? If you're going to be modding your device, you should have cwm or twrp recovery so you can backup and restore your device. Back to the issue at hand, can you get into the settings of the swapsd and revert to stock settings? Dumb question I'm sure but some people don't think of it.

---------- Post added at 07:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 AM ----------

You had to have installed something. Root by itself is not going to brick your device. How long was it rooted before it started doing this?

As he said restore your backup through recovery. Or use your volume down button and select the option wipe and restore to factory. Otherwise you need to have it plugged into your computer and locate yourself a factory image and start from scratch. Just wondering, is your bootloader unlocked?

anyone else have problems getting notifications from tapa or xda apps? ever since i got my G3 (near release day), nothing, except those generic notifications tapa sends some times that have nothing to do with me.

the notifications show in the tab on the apps, but not in the notification bar as they should.

a .bat file is a windows batch file, so im assuming when you say app you really mean "script on your pc"?

if thats the case. put your phone in fastboot, plug to pc, and run the batch file. it will either prompt you with options, or start the process by itself.

the recovery file needs to stay where it is if its a bach file on your pc.

btw, usb debugging is not needed for fastboot, only if it uses adb too would you need usb debug on.

Close app question

1. If I am watching a video halfway (video has loaded halfway in youtube) in the internet browser, then I press home key or back key on the phone to close the app. Is the browser app still running or consuming data?

2. I press and hold the home key in S4, and a tile list of recent apps pop up. Are those apps still running? Do I need to swipe it left/right to make the app disappear so that it is closed? Or is that list just a list of history of apps I have opened before?

Thanks mate. My next question is how do I safely install the kernel? My n00bishness in me is worried that I'll overwrite the developer preview.

But at the same time o don't want to bite off more than I can chew.

[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
wut?
[General Questions and Answers] RedDemon:
1. Depends a little on the browser, but most modern browsers have an underlying service that will continue to run and download. As you've identified in part 2, there are other ways to close an app to ensure that it's not continuing to run or consume data.

2. Yes, the tile view shows apps that are still running. Swiping the app will close the service, but depending on the app there are often services that continue to run in the background (such processes can be inspected using an app like Android Assistant amongst many others).

If you're on a dev preview, I assume you mean lollipop?

You better head to the last couple pages of the elemental x thread and read through there. There is a new elemental x kernel for lollipop but you also need to flash a very permissive boot.img in order to make it work and maintain full root. So head back over to that thread and read through there. You'll know you're in the right spot because you'll see me talking about the root issue.

---------- Post added at 06:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 AM ----------

Obviously you haven't done a backup if you don't know what I'm talking about. Can you get into your phones recovery to do a factory reset? You'll lose whatever you've had to this point but it might save your phone.

OK so just so I have this right. I'll flash the zip just like I did for the 5.0 root. Now this is where I don't want to mess up. I'll then click the add more whatever button for the next two items, in correct order. Wipe cache. Finish. Reboot?
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
Factory reset only deletes/formats data, nothing else

You should format the system any time you flash a Rom.

Format system, data, cache, dalvic cache, and internal storage if you want it really clean.

That's the common procedure for any clean Rom flash or stock flash.

I prefer to do each 3 times to ensure its clean.

Bricked tablet

Hi,

I am a complete noob and have no idea what I have done. I have an EE Eagle/ Huawei Media pad M1. I managed to root it and had an update file/ rom for it. Because I have only used cmw recovery before to use custom roms, I flashed that to the device even though it wasn't the correct one for my device as mine is not supported. (complete idiot, I am fully aware)

Now it basically is stuck at the initial boot screen and cant but put into recovery mode as I have flashed wrong image. Is the thing now ready for the bin? absolutely gutted:crying:, just wanted KitKat on it to speed it up a little. Do I have any hope at all?

oneplus one Color OS question

I'm planning on buying a oneplus one (OPO) but the invite system is not available here in the Philippines. I could buy an OPO from an online store but its only the color os kind, they dont have the cm11s kind. I've seen several posts on how to flash the cm11s to the color os, but my question is this:

If I just flash a cm11s that I downloaded from the internet, will it make my OPO exactly the same as the ones from the invite system (the cyanogen opo)? Or is just going to end up as an OPO fone with a regular, non legit cm11s. Thank you.

Don't know how kk would've sped things up since it had to be modified to no end to get better speed and battery.

Anyway, that being said, to my knowledge, if you flash an incorrect image that isn't made for your device, you're hard bricked. If you can't get into recovery or anything else, it's pretty well a paperweight. The only option I can think of, is if you can fastboot a stock image onto your device....

No. Power of your device or pull the battery, doesn't matter. Pop your sd card out, put the files you need on it, pop it back in your phone and go back into recovery which I believe is vol+ and vol- held in together while powering on.
