i flashed a custom rom and wanted to encrypt it. it doesnt even start, shows me that phone, interface and settings have been stopped and stays blank. nothing happens, even overnight. i can still get into recovery mode, but wiping data is not possible because /sdcard/ is not mounted/acesible apparently. what can i do so it works like normal again? how do i cancel the encryption?

i cant post in the roms thread yet because i have less than 10 posts.

I knew a pit file would be the solution! For future reference, you can extract any part you need from the official firmware too (ie bootloader, pit, recovery, system image only, etc). I have a copy of my official firmware along with it extracted into pieces in case I ever need just one part. I'm glad you got it working!

Yeah perseus stopped development at 4.1.2 although someone claimed to make it compatible with 4.4.2 it's not. On my phone I run agni. I like it a lot. There are others, of course. I'm watching the development of shift kernel & the devil kernel dev is now helping with that (devil kernel was great, but there's not one ready for 4.4+ yet I don't think). There's probably a ton of choices out there for you. I have an i317 so my choices are kinda limited. I have to wait for kernels specifically made for my device or ported from yours. Try a few out from the original development thread.

Hello Guys.

I would like to know can testing a new developed app or game on a custom rom is advisable or not?

Basically am working on a game which would be completed in a month or 2.And am thinking of rooting my device and installing a custom rom.

Can testing the game on custom rom would or might cause bugs in game which might not do so on a stock rom?
[General Questions and Answers] Simwer:
It is not advisable and highly depends on this custom rom. Generally, if everything else works fine on it, then you most probably won't have any bugs, caused by it.
[General Questions and Answers] MLse7en:
I would suggest that you should think about your target audience at first - are our players running devices on custom roms? Probably not, so I would suggest that you test your game on a default rom.

Ascend P1 problem

Hi,

I rooted my phone and installed 4.4.2 KitKat, everything was OK.

Later wanted to install gapps and something went wrong, phone rebooted and now I`m stuck in system recovery mode <3e>. Every time I turn on the phone it goes to system recovery mode.

Tried wipe data/factory reset etc. - nothing works.

Is there anything I can do with it or just throw it away?

Phone - Huawei Ascend P1 (U9200).

Thanks in advance.

This may be a noob question

but does flashing your phone often with custom Roms decrease its life?
[General Questions and Answers] KkdGab:
Use THIS, then flash another rom, remember to wipe dalvik, data, system, and cache

OR, you can try wiping dalvik cache if there is a option, but dont waste time finding it if it is not there.
[General Questions and Answers] qualkuno:
Well from what i know by flashing custom roms doesn't decrease your phone's life, but if you start flashing kernels with overclocked setting and with not good battery settings it may cause problems... For example on my old Note 1 i had to change battery 2 times in 1 year due to bad configuration of the kernel....but if you take care of your phone and you read everything with accuracy before flashing anything you should be fine ;) Go ahead and mod you phone :p

Preamble:

I have been around the internet and I wasn't able to find answer to this question. I have bought a cheap Lenovo P780W+ which was my own mistake. The seller on aliexpress offered this phone for $120 if I am not mistaken, specs were:

-4.4.2 Android

-Media-tech Octa Core

-2 Gb RAM

-720p display

The specs screenshot below.

So, I rushed and bought two of them. One for me and other for my gf. When I lounched the phone I understood why it was so cheap. It was a ripoff/fraud/scam. Basically, Antutu and other bench-marking apps are showing everything as it was on the aliexpress but in real life, the phone crashed every time when I tried using Instagram. No other apps could run...

My Question: How can I check real specs of this phone?

If you can go twrp. You just need flashable stock rom. Put your file zip to your sdcard then goto twrp wipe data chace and delvik and mount anythink on advanced option.. Then go back and install zip form sdcard choose your zip file.. Waiting until done.. Then reboot your phone

What is a nandroid backup ??? How do I do a nandroid backup on my nokia xl ??
[General Questions and Answers] donlesnar:
hi.

so i have finally rooted my phone (galaxy pocket neo)

[General Questions and Answers] rht_sg:
nandroid backup, means a current system level backup of your phone's operating system and apps.

once u r rooted, u can boot into recovery (assuming you have a custom recovery like CWM/4EXT/TWRP)

and then it will have an option to do a nandroid backup. once this is done, u can install custom roms by wiping your system partitions first and if something goes wrong, you can restore your nandroid backup to get your phone in a current working state.

exact steps will be different for your phone, better check your phone specific forums.

i think the only extra app which is installed during rooting, is SuperSU or Superuser app.

u can then install apps which require root access to get further control or customize your phone.

for example, if u want to restrict apps from using data, u can install a firewall like Droidwall,

if u don't want ads showing in your apps, u can try Adaway or some app like that,

many other things like overclocking your phone etc, can be done, but it would be better u take ur time to learn before proceeding.

ok, so u meant an app ?

i thought if there was an xposed framework module, then it might be better.

I extracted apk from /system/app but it doesn't install or work with by copying it back in /system/app in another ROM. Are there any following apps that i need to copy also or what? My question here is, how can one "port" Lewa Gallery to work in other systems, like 4.2.2 i have at the time or any other? Doesn't need to be installable, just copy paste in system/app is ok, just to be usable. If needed, here is link to .apk i extracted:

THL w200s Hard Bricked

Hi Guys !,

Yesterday i was wiping the Cache/Data from my phone by using the recovery menu on my THL W200S. Unfortunately my phone got stuck on a black screen so i was forced to remove the battery. Since then i tried turning on the phone without success.

The phone just displays the THL Logo and get stuck on a black screen. I tried using SP flash tools to Flash the Stock Rom into it. The SP Flash tool said that the process was completed successfully but when i tried to turn on my phone the same thing occurred. Logo appears then a black screen. I tried to flash the phone again with a different build number of the stock rom but this time the phone wont even turn on at all.

This is a very good octa core phone and i really dont have any money to spare, Please if any of you guys know anything id appreciate all your help.

VERY UNUSUAL situation

First of all, sorry if thread is in a wrong place.

I have very unusual problem with Sony Xperia Miro, as for now no one could help me.

My friend had this phone first.

He said it started crashing randomly, then ram dump happened. He found some new phone so he left Miro in a drawer for few months (this might be somewhat important). After that time he gave it to me. Now it doesn't even turn on, when I charge it Led Light doesn't even flash red/orange/green (Note: it flashed red for a brief moment once), when I plug it into PC, computer can't, see the device,though Flashtool detects it, but can't interact with it.

Battery was checked with electric meter and it says it's charged half full, so it should work.

So basically phone is dead, but its unlikely a physical condition since it's in great condition and also it happened with Software issues.

If anyone had a slightest idea what could it be, please help.
