[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] someone755:
I've been learning some development lately and I have a few questions to ask about the boot.img and kernel and things...

As far to my knowledge, it contains the kernel and the ramdisk, correct?

But what about a .sin file? That is also a kernel, isn't it?

But does it contain the ramdisk? Or is ramdisk included in the kernel itself?

For example, what would happen if I only flashed a .sin file on an empty boot partition?

Would the thing boot?

If yes, does that mean there IS ramdisk in the .sin file?

Furthermore, how would I be able to repack the .sin kernel into a boot.img? Just renaming obviously wouldn't do it... But, would anything?

What I'm trying to do:

From an Xperia FTF FW file, I extracted the kernel in .sin file format.

Now, with ready-to-go META-INF and system folders, I came to a dead end where I can't get the boot.img.

The reason for that is that I'm trying to make a Gingerbread ROM. All other ROMs out there (for this phone) are ICS, therefore the kernel wouldn't be compatible.

I COULD just flash the .sin kernel with a PC, but that isn't practical...

Any ideas what could be done?

Sorry for the tricky and unreadable post, but I've been searching the internet for the past 3 hours. No results found...

Thanks!

--someone755

EDIT: Just thought of this:

Better yet; is there a way to use fastboot or adb to pull the boot.img from the device?

I am running a stock (VRBMA2) rooted TW ROM. When I receive a call while I am on a call a tab appears that will "pull up" allowing me to reject the call with a variety of messages (I'm away, etc.) but no way to answer the 2nd call without terminating the 1st call. Others I have spoken to with the same phone say for them a "swap" option appears. Am I missing something?

Thanks for any help.

[Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0] qq3391:
Sorry for my bad english.

I'm using GB-70, which is Korean version of G-70(Galaxy Player 5.0).

I flashed CM10(last nightly) today and found that I can't install any APKs. Of course I checked Security/Unknown Source. But I still can't install any APKs.

Was there any problem while I flashed CM10? These are what I did :

1. wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache.

2. flash CM9.

3. wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache.

4. flash CM10.

5. Reboot.

6. I found that I didn't wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache.

7. So I wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache.

8. Reboot.

9. Still have problem installing APKs.

What should I do in order to install APKs? It makes me so crazy...

PS. I upload pictures of 'my phone'. I think it might help. Since I didn't make any change on build.prop, it says I'm using G-70. But I'm using GB-70.

have you tried wiping system. i doubt it would do anything but its worth a shot

just wipe system

flash rom

flash gapps

reboot

now if these are apps that have been illegally obtained, then we are not going to help you.

you could also be trying to install 4.2.2 apks on 4.1.2 which wont work.

before anyone says "did you look?" yes i looked for 4 hours over the net and on not just this site. What im not finding is a custom debloated rom with wiz base or tmo base that supports wifi calling has multi window and custom set up. THere are a lot of beautiful roms im seeing. So far Wicked and Hyperdrive RLS13 are my 2 fav. However i live in a 80 year old brick and steel building which means NO DATA. i do everything including calling over my wifi. anyone know of any that are similar to these but support tmo wifi calling? thank you

Its SGH-T999 4.1.2 (Jellybean?)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
WiFi calling is built into TouchWiz. So every single T-Mobile TouchWiz ROM has WiFi calling. Stay away from the ports. If it's a port, it will say so in the thread title. Wicked has WiFi calling. What's the problem?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] richardhsm:
So I gleefully put a new screen protector on the XDA2 and it went dead. I mean dead. Would not boot up.( XDA2 on Orange unlocked from horrid O2 at birth )

After much head scratching, not thinking the screen protector had anything to do with malfunction I upgraded to 1.72.187 secure in the knowledge I had a backup from 10th October. Wrong.

Ignoring the fact that Activsync said No connection I reflashed ROM with 1.72.187. XDA2 did not work.

Prayed & removed screen protector & it WORKED. Dont ask, no idea.

Rebuild put back all that O2 crap but Orange SIM works; it phones.

BUT no contacts no nothing.

Have tried to restore ALL DATA 3x from backup of 10th October. Why wont the data backed up under 1.03 restore under 1.72.187 ?

Says it works but get grey screen & have to hard reset.

NO restored data.

Shall I go back and reflash with 1.03 and THEN restore data ?

Am V pissed off.

Richard
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] dcs:
Don't know what to say about the screen protector :? Spooky :shock:

I would think that given the vast differences in versions between 1.03 and 1.72, that doing a restore will cause problems. The operating system itself has had two service packs after 1.03.

Best bet is to leave 1.72 on and re-install all your applications, etc after a hard reset. However, if you have data that you need from the backup, then try going back to 1.03, restoring from backup, then synchronising/saving your important data (assuming you will then re-upgrade to 1.72).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] richardhsm:
the saga continues

O2 Data Support seemed somewhat irritated/amused that anyone should try and use xBackup at all. It was inferred that it was an industry joke

( "not our responsibility Sir...its from that Microsoft " ). Apparently the world apart from me use activsync to backup data & cut and paste to restore....progess ?

I indicated going back to the original supplied firmware. This was closely followed by

" No Sir, we no longer supply or are able to supply firmware Version 1.03, we only supply the current release "

I will send XDA2 off to Norwich to the PDA repair people and they can reinstall 1.03 & maybe reconstitute my Contacts ( forget the Appointments ) from the backup.

What a waste of time ( and money ).

[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kfire21:
Home button doesnt work because you need to Trim your rom before you flash it so files don't get overwritten when flashing gapps with it.

If you can't access recovery then go into developer settings and tick advanced boot menu

then click & hold your power button and click reboot

then it will give you options

recovery

bootloader

reboot

just tick recovery and it'll automatically go into cwm

I recommend you the plantronics backbeat 903+, better sound, better battery life, better look ( IMO ). Those backbeat go are lighter and small indeed but they seem to fall off pretty easily from your ears and they lack good sound and proper volume.

BT IEMs seem like a terrible idea, either you are going to have a bullky dongle(s) or short battery life and either way the audio quality is going to be average at best (fault of bluetooth especially since the n4 doesn't support aptx.) I guess cords just don't bother me that much.

I've gone through a number of Bluetooth headphones. Cordless is definitely the way to go.

http://www.amazon.com/Jaybird-Freedom-Bluetooth-Earbuds-Fit-Bluetooth/dp/B005B28DOM

I currently use these for working out. They're great; good sound quality, very lightweight, and they come with a company lifetime guarantee against sweat. I can get about 8 hours of "music" time with them, which is expected given their size. You can't fit that big of a battery in there. I particularly love these for working out because they never fall out of my ears when I move a lot, like when running. They have these little option "anchors" that go inside your ears that work really well. Phone and music controls are on the right ear piece, and are minimal. Center button to answer/hang up a call or play/pause music. Volume up and down buttons, and hold them to skip tracks forward and back.

http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10827&cs_id=1082702&p_id=8582&seq=1&format=2

I currently use these at work to listen to music, podcasts, calls, Skype sessions, etc. Very good sound quality for the price, though I think my Jaybirds sound a little better. They're very comfortable, easy to pair, and have great battery life. I can usually go 3 days on a single charge, 20ish hours. Play/pause and track controls on the left earpiece, volume on the right. I probably wouldn't use them for working out as the ear pieces have a faux leather padding that would probably start to smell when exposed to a lot of sweat.

http://www.amazon.com/Jabra-HALO-Bluetooth-Stereo-Headset/dp/B002PY7P2K

These are probably the most "stylish" of the headphones I own. Sound quality is good, they're very comfortable, and compact because you can fold them up. Controls on the right ear piece, and volume and track controls are actually touch controlled, and not by buttons. However, they are very prone to fall off your head so I wouldn't recommend them unless you're pretty stationary, like desk work. Battery life isn't spectacular either, 10ish hours. I currently use them as a headset for my PS3 because they're not noise canceling, so I can chat and still hear the game.

http://www.amazon.com/Rocketfish-High-Definition-Headphones-Bluetooth-Enabled-RF-MAB2/dp/B002V5OYHC

Similar to the Monoprice headphones but not as comfortable. However, I felt they did offer better sound quality.

http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...10823&cs_id=1082708&p_id=10245&seq=1&format=2

I would advise against using Xtheme just for changing battery icons. What if you want to use a theme but with a different battery?

My module will let you use a different battery OVER the Xtheme, this is the main reason i created it. Hopefully it will help try and stop many people from requesting many different batteries when someone releases a theme.

I have also posted a guide in my thread for modifying the module package.

The reason why xtheme works so well with xperias is because I created redirection xmls for semc images, you need to find someone to create redirections for touchwiz, likewise for HTC's.
