Hi everyone,

Just wanted to share the Galaxy S4 launcher ported by Linq'z QIrls'z Chinese who has successfully ported it to cm 10/10.1 roms. This is by no way my work and I have not made any changes. You can grab the files from the below link and also please thank him in his post.

There are some extra goodies also ported by him but I have not tried anyone of them so not sure if it works or not.

I am using the launcher for almost 10 days and its very smooth, so just wanted to post it for everyone.

Currently using it with Tonyp 10.1, not tested on cm 10.

(I shall post the Screenshot later, I have tried the 4*4 & 5*4, both worked, the transparent weather widget was not working for me)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solidstatesociety:
Whenever I turn it on (via the power button), it loads instantly to fast-boot.

I've tried flashing it back to stock kernel / ROM, but that hasn't solved it. In addition, I can use the 'up' volume button to navigate fastboot, but whenever I press the power to select something; nothing happens.

What can I do?

Thanks,

Cameron.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
For starts, you could mention:

- bootloader version

- whether you have a tilapia (3G+WiFi) or grouper (WiFi only) device

- whether you can boot into recovery from the fastboot menu (I can guess the answer, but you were vague)

- if so, what version of the recovery you have

- whether you have successful communications with the device:

a) via fastboot when the device is in bootloader mode

b) via adb when the device is booted into recovery

- whether you own an OTG cable and a USB flash ("key") drive

- what errors you observe when flashing back to stock (fastboot method presumed)

PS

If you have fastboot communication working, attempt to soft-boot a recovery and report what happens:

fastboot boot recovery-image-file.img
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] solidstatesociety:
Bootloader version is 4.18.

It's the wifi-only version of the device.

I returned it back to factory settings (in turn re-locking the boot-loader), but I've now discovered that since I can't select an option with the power button (which obviously 'works' since I can turn on the device), I can't confirm to unlock it again to soft boot a recovery.

I can communicate with the device via Fastboot, I'm not sure what an OTG cable is (sorry!), but I do have a USB flash drive. There wasn't an error given when flashing back to stock (using the toolkit program on Windows), but it didn't change the state of the device (boots straight back into fastboot).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
If you returned it to complete stock and everything was normal, it would boot.

Since that is not the case, either you need to try and fix it, or try and return it, or write it off as a brick.

The first of those three options involves unlocking the bootloader and attempting what I mentioned - finding out if it will boot a standalone image (e.g. a custom recovery) without flashing anything.

If that succeeds, you/we can proceed from there.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
I didn't fully appreciate what that (highlighted) section meant - it's been months since I unlocked my N7.

Are you saying that when you now attempt to unlock the bootloader, it requests confirmation with the power button, and this also appears to do nothing? (I can't remember the unlocking sequence).

What happens if you use

fastboot reboot

to try and get it to boot normally? Anything?

Or perhaps the power button might work after doing a

fastboot reboot-bootloader

?

I ran a "stuck Vol-Down" button experiment where I held the Vol-Down button continuously from an off condition (a stuck Vol-Down would always pop the device into the bootloader); but the Power button continues to function normally, even when Vol-Down is "stuck" this way, so I guess that's not the source of your trouble.

Sorry.
[Motorola Atrix HD] PearlKami:
I really liked the quick view seeing for messenger and contacts in ICS ROM for AtrixHD. However this feature disappeared after the update. Is there a way to enable this? :(

I'm looking forward for some developers can figure out a way to mod it into JellyBean ROM :silly:
[Motorola Atrix HD] huatz84:
It must be something inside framework_res and systemUI. This quickview has been removed on all Motorolas since JB update.
[Motorola Atrix HD] joel_sinbad:
The most logic reason why it was removed because that feature was not part of the "stock android features", and the JB was part of the NEW MOTOROLA, and so they tough "Why we had this? Let's remove it!" and Puff!! It disappeared! The JB updates for all Motorolas came with serious changes for us, the users, and that was good! But anyway, why do you want the Quick View on the icons when you can do the same function just scrolling the Jelly Bean Notification Bar? Just asking, is the same function... In ICS it was useful, but on JB is a repetitive feature.
[Motorola Atrix HD] PearlKami:
Yes, maybe it looks quite the same, however quickview is a unique feature built for us, I like that difference
[Motorola Atrix HD] L7iharsha:
There is still quick view but Motorola disabled it and made as quick settings but quick view is unique

Is it possible to flash Pac Rom without unlocking the boot loader as this is the reason why I want to unlock the boot loader.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
No, because you need to flash a custom kernel.

Question - has the unlock status always said 'No', even before rooting? If it has, then there is no way to unlock it at all. Even if you debrand the phone by flashing a generic rom ;)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slyviper1700:
I think it said no before aswell.

Would it be unlocked if I decided replace the boot partition
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
It's not that simple. If it was, someone here would have done it already. The bootloader is protected by all sorts of encryption as far as I know (I'm new to Sony and Qualcomm devices in general, but there's definitely some heavy security in place). Messing with that sort of thing will probably result in a brick.

Looks like you're stuck with stock based roms ;)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slyviper1700:
I am contacting sony and some experienced devs to see if there is a workaround.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
There's not even a remote chance that Sony will help you bypass their locked bootloader. Like zero percent chance. I doubt that they will even respond to a request like that.

As for experienced devs, there are already people who know what they're doing looking at the encryption in the 'TA backup' thread. I'm not sure if that's just for the purposes of keeping DRM keys on an unlocked bootloader, or for unlocking unofficially. Last I looked, there didn't seem to be any huge breakthroughs. The right guys are on it anyway :D

In short, your bootloader is permanently locked for the foreseeable future ;)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maddhouse:
So far, back up ta wise they have said You cannot get it unlocked at all it is a 100% No, The thing they are Tring to do is unlock your bootloader WITH b2e and drm keys but that I'd looking like a no as well by what the laser said due to encryption

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] N10AP:
OK you can try to install the qualcomm drivers as the phone must be in download mode. That`s why its recognising it.

Then I think you need to flash a hex image or something.

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] N10AP:
Seroiusly mate. IMHO if you don`t have the qualcomm hex images (or whatever they are) or a means of JTAGing your phone, then only option is to send it to someone in the US who can RMA it. For the cost of postage and maybe a beer for the kind person, they could do it for you.

Assuming you ordered it from your Google account when you was in the US...

1) Find someone trustworthy in US

2) Ask if you can send your Nexus 4 to them

3) They RMA it using your account details

4) They send the new device to you in Europe when google drop it off.

Everyones happy.

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] The Troll:
as i seem to recall, even an unlocked bootloader wont give u access to boatloader partition and other important partitions..

which makes it still recoverable..

if u ask me, get a different pc with windows vista/7 *not windows 8*, download the nexus drivers from xda and install and then try flashing via fastboot..

and if i seem to recall, the installation scripts in the rom.zip dont format partitions numbers but use tags such as system or data which is predefined so you cant flash system in bootloader by mistake..

ofcourse, i can be wrong
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Razer(x):
Can't go in fastboot mode, that's the problem

leave it for charging for 30 min-ish

then try fastboot

or try holding power for 20 second-ish to make sure the phone's restarted

Charging doesn't work, will need a JTAG service or ask LG support

I know it may take a while, but it`s a means to an end. A bricked Nexus 4 is no good to anyone, unless you want to sell it for a pittance for parts...
