[Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arkadeep94:
Actual user available RAM is always lower than the specified capacity. Like on the GS3, around 800MB of RAM is usable out of a reported 1GB. It's the same for every phone out there. Nothing unusual about it.

Again, actual formatted capacity is less. There is a reason why a 1TB hard drive doesn't give you full access to 1024GB. You only get something around 800 or so. So like RAM, nothing unusual.

Not to mention, your 16GB total memory is divided into user available memory and internal system memory.

Rooting your phone is something which you need to do separately. Going by your RAM capacity, it seems you have JB. (didn't known that S Advances in stores come with JB pre installed) Search the development thread for Shaan's root if you want to get toot access on your phone.

Secondary partition om flash storage? Seems kind of pointless because capacity isn't too high either.

After installing the application, go to the application manager and select the specific app. Once the app options open, you will see an option to move the app to your SD card.

By default, most large applications only put their apk installation into the the system storage. The data is put into the user available 11GB anyway.

If you choose to move it the SD card, application performance will take a hit.

Hope this helps. :)

[General Questions and Answers] Jastherin:
Ever since I got my new phone, I've used Google Play Music because I love it so much. But whenever it streams music that's not off the phone, about two thirds through the song, it always stops and then states "Could not play the stream you requested" No matter what I do it still does it, low quality or high quality, 3G or Wifi. I've cleared the cache countless times, I've uninstalled updates and restarted and reinstalled updates like suggested in another post, but nothing works! I switched from SiriusXM app to the Google Music All Access since it was cheaper and now it's doing this still! So frustrating! I only have 2 devices authorized as well. Please help!

Phone is rooted LG AS730 (LG Optimus Select)

Thank you,
[General Questions and Answers] cbobbett:
What's going on with the stream stopping!?

I'm having the same issue! It's very frustrating. I am actually prepared to pay for the Google streaming service but at this point I think I may just have to cancel it before the 30 day trial is complete. LG Optimus G

I have unlimited data but no WiFi connection at home, I want to play blitz brigade but the old trick of leaving WiFi enabled but not connected doesn't work. There's a method using WiFi tether on the net but it doesn't work. Can I spoof a WiFi or tether to my own connection? If not is anyone interested in devving a WiFi faker and I will test? IPhone has had this ability forever, android being a much superior OS must be capable

My ROM spoofs lots of things. Perhaps it can already do what you want if you configure the permission settings correctly.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] @non4:
Sounds good, I prefer stock based ROM though, anyway you can integrate this stuff into stock? Or an alternative method? Not disrespecting your work just my fave games run better on stock. Nice to know it may be possible :)

[LG Optimus 4X HD] SimonTS:
Combining pDroid into a Stock ROM is more difficult and is not possible with the auto-patcher software. In your position, I would flash Wenque's ROM and see if you can tweak the permissions to do what you want - if it works then you have a reason to investigate further.

http://www.ahgames.net/2013/05/blitz-brigade-apk-data-files-v101.html?m=1 if you dont know how to spoof the wifi you can download just the data from here.somewhere on this website must be a directory like /data/data/name of the game. paste it there and it should work :)

as the game is free i dont think its illegal to download the data from there please delete this post if Im wrong

edit : SDcard/Android/obb/ thats the correct dir :)

This is more for the guys who are running a Nexus 7 as a head unit, have any of you looked into the USB parking distance radars? I found one thread over on mp3car.com, but it sounds like those are no longer available, there is also a Russian site that seems to offer an Android based system, but its a Russian site and I have no idea about pricing etc.

Just curious if anyone else has looked into this?

I don't think it will work with the Android o/s. The system plugs into a PC and is recognized as an HID in the device manager. I don't think the Nexus 7 will be able to recognize it.

who usually hacks the lg's bootloaders? we may need to get ahold of them, im new to lg so i have no clue.

after talking with madmack it appears were in the same boat as the at&t s4 users. we cannot even have a real recovery until the bootloader is cracked. that's unless one of our talented devs can make a bootstrap type deal for us.

i also emailed adam outler from the s4 forums. he was the guy behind cracking the s3's, note 2 and the s4's bootloader.

I'm fairly certain that a Project FreeGee-like unlock will work, but I need to find someone who's not afraid of having to use LGNPST to check ;)

I was considering purchasing one of these phones, but I can't justify myself buying another phone that will barely fit in my pocket haha

If you're interested, find either me or Shelnutt2 in #lg-optimus-g on Freenode and we'll see what we can do.

Suffice it to say that this phone is *very* similar to the Optimus G (all variants), even the kernel code is much the same.

We already tried to flash the aboot from mako and a boot.img binary for the lg pro but the phone got stuck on the LG prompt. I guess the sbl3 -> aboot sig verification is enforced indeed.

Awaiting new instructions now :) i can flash this thing with anything as long as i can flash it back to stock ;) I'm on the IRC channel as well, albeit mostly idle. same nickname. pm me there if there is anything I should try.
[LG Optimus G Pro] zohaer21:
ill add 50 USD to it if it can be done before 3rd june :)
[LG Optimus G Pro] thecubed:
Nope, surprisingly enough if the phone was checking signatures, SBL3 would drop you to Qualcomm download mode (qhsusb_dload) mode when it detects an invalid signature.

I believe the phone was hanging on the LG prompt because of different entrypoints into the actual bootloader itself, or different symbol tables.

It could be fairly trivial at this point to simply patch the stock aboot (LK) to accept any signature, however that's not really my area of expertise.

Me and Shelnutt2 will converse about this today and let y'all know what seems to be the best route to take here.

Thanks for your patience, everyone!

---------- Post added at 12:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:17 PM ----------

Also, for anyone who's got time and some experience on their hands, a simple way to possibly verify that sigchecking is not enforced would be to simply hex-edit a string in the bootloader (might I suggest the "secure booting error" strings you see when trying to boot an unsigned boot.img) and flash it back.

Changing a string won't require complete disassembly of the bootloader, but it will invalidate the signature of the partition. If it works, you should be able to boot normally, but you'd see your modified string.

Keep in mind that if it doesn't work, you'd have to LGNPST/LGFLASH back to stock since you'd be stuck at the LG logo.

I'll be around in #lg-optimus-g today randomly at work, so highlight my _work nick and I'll stop by if I can.

[LG Optimus G Pro] mrfeuss:
I'm inclined to believe that the first method will not work. I poked through all of the secret menu's options and saw no mention of a bootloader unlock (which I imagine would be present in an OEM unlockable firmware). I can't say whether or not the second one will work, or whether it not working would turn a phone into a very handy paperweight. I'm past my 14 Day-anything goes exchange period so I'll leave the testing for someone who can easily swap devices.

Hey man. I was just getting ready to put mine up on swappa.

[LG Optimus G Pro] thecubed:
Let's not go poking around on LG's FTP servers -- I would hate to hear of LG calling us "hackers" instead of "phone liberators".

Also, in regards to PM's and people asking if they can help, right now I can't get into my XDA PM box (I click the link and it logs me out), so I can't reply to y'alls PM's that you've sent.

For helping out, right now what we need is people who are proficient with ARM Assembly and C. Once I get my device, the only real barrier to getting this done will be my time and willpower (same with Shelnutt2).

I have partially figured out the memory addresses to be used for Loki, so that still remains a viable option.

However, I believe I may have found something interesting for a logic error in how LG's bootloader checks the unlock certificate. I'm going to have to draw it all out on a whiteboard or something (C pointers and ARM ASM make my head spin), then me and Shelnutt2 will put our brains together and give y'all something.

[LG Optimus G Pro] thecubed:
It's been my experience that LG doesn't bother really differentiating the bootloaders in their devices per market. They seem to like to have one series of devices and software to match.
[LG Optimus G Pro] thecubed:
Howdy again all, here's a quick update.

It looks like I'm going to have to dig around for as to why I'm unable to "fastboot boot" anything -- even the stock boot.img files. This is something I noticed on the Optimus G when I was working on it, and I happened to find out that it was the ramdisk load address was incorrect. I'm fairly certain this is the case as well for the OGPro.

What does this mean? Well, it means I need to find out why the bootloader seemingly hardcodes the ramdisk address when booting normally, but observes the values when being booted with "fastboot boot".

I'm sure this isn't a security issue, since the "Secure Boot" code is never called (proven with my IDA dumps). Once I have the correct ramdisk address, I'll have a tethered CWM build for y'all!

You may ask yourself "why does a tethered CWM help me?"

Well, it's a sure-fire way to unstuff your phone if you manage to trip the security daemon ('wallpaper' in ramdisk) by messing with stuff in /system and you don't want to LGNPST.

As a stopgap until I can 'fix' the bootloader's security, or get Loki working - it should be fairly sufficient :)

ROM developers, please read my message.

I had the Galaxy Nexus when it came out, and then I switched to the Nexus 4 when it came out. I bought the Optimus G Pro because of the huge screen. All I want is a deodexed rooted AOSP ROM. Nothing fancy. No extra stuff. Just plain old AOSP.

A lot of ROMs I've seen that are custom have horrible graphics, terrible fonts, missing functionality.

Get as creative as you want, but please just think of the people that want AOSP and nothing else.

Thank you.

Give us a super clean aosp based on stock rom without Bloatware it would be so great
