[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] se1000:
I think you're very confused. The "Google Edition" phones are almost pure AOSP with very few changes. There is nothing touchwiz about the GS4 GE.

TW Kernels will not work (correctly) on a GE ROM.

GE Ports will work, so will the straight GE Rom itself on the TMO S4, this does not make it touchwiz in any way.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Bunny24:
Thanks for the explanation. I stand corrected. I guess I assumed since it's not pure AOSP it had more similarities than not. I haven't been keeping up too much with the Google phone since I have no interest in buying it. Just picked up my S4 a couple of weeks ago.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Gunkk:
Well if Google "fixes" the Bluetooth connectivity issues then I'll be buying one.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] lordcheeto03:
If that's the case, how come the GE ports (in our dev section and other variant's dev sections) require a TouchWiz, not AOSP kernel to function? Everything I read about the GE ports from day 1 was that it is still TW, just extremely debloated and with an AOSP look/feel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] se1000:
It may be certain ROM's are including TW features, which may require a TW kernel, but stock GE is not TW at all.

"The Google edition is not AOSP. It is Samsung frameworks without the TW bloat."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] se1000:
It still doesn't change the fact that it is absolutely in no way TW.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
No. You are wrong. It absolutely IS Touchwiz at the framework level.

You just don't see the Touchwiz UI elements, which are basically just overlays anyway.

Touchwiz is not just a user interface. It's an embedded part of the framework of the ROM. It's no different that HTC's Sense UI. You can 'de-sense' an HTC phone by taking out the Rosie.apk that makes it LOOK like Sense. But you can't remove Sense entirely because it's too deeply embedded in the code. Same with Touchwiz. Neither one is pure AOSP.

At it's core the GE ROM is very very Touchwiz.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] se1000:
I disagree. What makes TW and Sense is the UI and or user experience. In your example, even if you remove the Rosie.apk, you still have Sense elements everywhere (dialer, sms, settings, etc), the sense experience still exists. The experience of the GE phones are absolutely geared toward AOSP. I admit the underlying framework is still there but the point of these devices was to provide a stock experience. I never said GE was pure AOSP, but I disagree that it can be called Touchwiz.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Skipjacks:
You can disagree all you want.

It doesn't make you right.

There is a lot more to TW or Sense than just the UI. This is not up for debate. This is absolute fact.

The fundamental way the framework operates is Touchwiz specific.

Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.

Hi,

[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] TheBoegl:
Thanks for your work!

For those who want to try this beta-build:

download the newest odin-flashable build from here - thanks to [MENTION=5336070]flxo[/MENTION]

start Odin >= 3.07

select the downloaded CMW in the PDA section

unselect autoreboot if you would like to test it after flashing immediately

plug your XCover2 in

flash it

let it reboot/if you want to test cwm now:

power off by holding the power button

hold Volume +, Home and Power button simultaneous

you should see cwm

done :)

BTW: no one should just follow me by doing a reboot recovery, though I have created an odin-flashable restore - build 12.07.2013 for getting out of the "boot to recovery" loop without loosing data.
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Lum_Os:
I'll try this out. Oh and if this works, I'll see if I can start porting any roms to this device now :)

[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Lum_Os:

I changed the recovery.fstab to mount the external SD on /sdcard. Storing backups on the real SD is IMHO more convenient.

The updated image is: 20130606_recovery.img

[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] TheBoegl:
I have reupped the previous recoveries because they were unflashable with odin.

I really apologize for that mistake my Finnish, Slovenian and Bulgarian members ;) if Odin is stuck, just unplug your phone and select the new image, plug it in again and flash.

This double post is to inform the few of you who have downloaded the file already.

I created an Odin flashable .tar.md5 of the 20130606_1_ version. I tried it myself, works fine.

One nitpicky question: flxo, shouldn't it be 20130706? It's July after all ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] HeavyMoertel:
20130606_1_ fixed that for me, the device froze for half a minute and then rebooted into recovery.

EDIT:

Bad news: Somehow, the phone exclusively reboots into recovery now. I don't know if it's due to choosing "reboot recovery" or something else...
[Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] TheBoegl:
I guess you found my fix for that in the second post :good:

Have you ever flashed teenybin or stock 4.1 with lgnpst or accepted the 4.1 OTA update? If not, and you are attempting to flash current 4.2 releases, that is your problem. You need to update to the current TZ. Read the teenybin thread.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Misterowl:
Alright so theres a thread of some random "noob" asking for a port on the new HTC one google edition Rom. In the thread every one is telling this person that theres cyanogen mod and theres no need for a stock rom. But I see on XDA news that its actually Android 4.3 leaked and not 4.2. So my question is that is it Android 4.2 or Android 4.3 cause I'm confused due to the responses given in that thread. (Note I am not requesting a Rom because that would be silly of me to do so)

I'm pretty sure there are some differences between Android 4.2 and Android 4.3 (also adding)
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
It is 4.3

Will someone port it I wonder? There are some cool improvements it seems though I wonder how much it will affect our phone since the radio drivers for AOSP are functional but ****ty for our device. Maybe I'll try porting it. I haven't started on any roms yet and I really should.... hmmmm... any other thoughts?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Misterowl:
Isn't it harder to port from those devices than the nexus 4?

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
Just a heads up, I PM'd the dev about permission to port. So hopefully I get the go ahead and I can start this weekend.

*Edit* May not be possible to port until official release as there's no source and hardware is QUITE different to say the least. :(

I'm not sure yet if that will stop me from trying.....
[General Questions and Answers] planegenius:
I recently installed cyanogenmod 10 on my HTC Vivid (via the Holiday ROM here- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2026675) and I have very quiet call volume and when i press the speakerphone button, nothing happens.

I was unable to post in the ROM's thread, so I'm wondering if I can get some help here. Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thfreedumb:
Hello,

I have the t-mobile unlimited everything and it says that I have 500mb of tethering. I'm not trying to go stealth or anything.

I have used the default tethering app on android and it sets up fine. My nexus 10 even connects to it but the indicator bars stay gray, which means that there is no data (or at least i'm not able to do anything online with my n10).

Has anyone had a problem like this before and know a solution? Does tethering require a good connection? I average 1 or 2 bars.

N4 is AOKP and i've tried thru LTE and their regular HSPA.

thanks
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
have you tried other apps to make sure that your phone is tethering properly, have you tried it with or without a security password. Have you rebooted both devices and tried fresh? Also have tried connecting to a pc or another phone

Please let us know what steps you have taken already
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thfreedumb:
I have rebooted both devices.

I tried foxfi for the heck of it and that only seems to work on verizon. Barnacle says that it cant find WAN interface?

I have tried it with no security code, with WPA, with WPA2.

I have not tried connecting to a PC or a phone. will try that later and report back.

Does only a certain APN work for tethering?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playya:
I use LiquidSmooth and I have not had an issue. I also used CM without a hitch in that dept. Next suggestion is try a different rom
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pwc realtor:
Are you using a custom Kernel? Only ask because I had and issue with tethering on my Galaxy Nexus when I had one and the Kernel I was using was then issue.

Franco Kernel M3.

You're a genius! that was it.

Sadly I was a big fan of franco kernel (M3). Has anyone else been able to get it working or can recommend a similar kernel for me to check out? I mostly used the battery saving mode, custom color profiles, and voltage changes.

thanks in advance!

Installed a new ROM, trying to install titanium backup, says unknown error -24 on the market. Deleted everything in data/data, all other apps installed fine but Titanium won't install. I NEED to restore my files ASAP! Thanks!
[HTC One X] ll_r1d0_ll:
This is a common error that occurs with the Play Store sometimes after flashing ROMs without wiping data, or with an incomplete un-installation (apk corruption, etc.)

Simple to fix:

(I'm assuming you're rooted, chances are you are if you get this error)

- YOU'LL LOSE YOUR DATA FOR THAT APP (You would have done anyway, if it was uninstalled properly) -

1.) Using a root file manager, go to /data/data

2.) Find the package name of the app you're wanting to install

(Don't know the package name? Find the app you're wanting to install on the Play Store online and it's in the URL)

3.) Delete that folder. All of it.

4.) Try to install your app again, it should work now

5.) If you like, hit the thanks button

Already done that mate.. but still get the error with titanoum, data/data is empty now
