Check the other s4 forums dopey. And take a chill pill while you're there. No need for needless childlike hostilities. I'm just trying to open up a discussion about something I'm sure I'm not the only one wondering about.

Thanks for the input dubbsy, I was assuming it was something like that. I was wondering if there was working network on it. I just wanted to get it running to convince my friend with his nexus 4 to root hahaha.

I currently run your ge build, but would love a working 4.3 even just for the SS hahaha. But performance wise I'm sure currently something with all the tw firmware would probably perform better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
For benchmarks the TW framework should bench higher every time. But I haven't ran benchs on 4.3. I don't know why it would be any different than the rest of the pure aosp builds. I would think any gains with 4.3 would have to be compared to a similar build of 4.2.2 and not TW-based. The biggest differences I've seen from AOSP to TW based roms were in the cpu category and by huge differences. Presumably due to samsung drivers.

I did not get network working yet, didn't really try. Probably won't because I'm too busy with other things. Random FCs also due to not having a kernel specific for the device. If I took the time to actually build my own kernel for it I could get it working at least as well as my ge build. But when I say that, any person with a working knowledge of android and using a kitchen could do the same.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Elvis_Marmaduke:
Thanks for the input, that's pretty close to what I was guessing. Did you notice any increase in touch response? I read there is on the nexus 4 but no other devices.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
No more than I get by tweaking any install. :shrug:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
I shouldn't have even posted this because my "whythehellnot" thought process got the best of me. So I have the 4.3 ramdisk, I have the CM 4.2.2 boot.img from the nightly, and I have my kitchen all set to build a vzw 4.3 kernel. Now I just need to do it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Elvis_Marmaduke:
Lol! Well don't overwhelm yourself haha I know you've got like 3 other gs4 things going right now hahaha but I'll be supporting you either way ;)

Just need the kernel now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
You are absolutely right. stock untweaked.

For pure aosp with no TW framework this is pretty amazing. Highest I've gotten on an aosp 4.2.2 quadrant was 8,8xx

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
Which is TW. You won't get anywhere near 12k on 4.2.2 aosp. Comparing apples and puppies doesn't really work out too well..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hexitnow:
Yeah I know its tw, dont really care for aosp personally just wanted to chime in with my scores is all.

SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Metallice:
Seriously? You just had to throw your irrelevant scores into the discussion knowing full well it was irrelevant due to the scoring differences between TW and AOSP which was previously mentioned as being irrelevant in this very thread? Is that really what youre saying?

Anyway...Stock basically cheats anyway when it comes to benchmarks. Open up quadrant or antutu on TW and it will automatically turn on all cores and run at max speed, no matter how little the CPU is being used. ASFAIK this doesn't happen on an aosp ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
I was shocked by the 4.3 numbers to be honest. I knew it felt smoother and faster... But thought it was placebo. And I was wrong.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Elvis_Marmaduke:
So are you working on a ROM now? Lol those are awesome scores for stock aosp. Can't wait till we start seeing some custom kernels :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
Kind of. If the kernel builds and installs, I'll release it. If it doesn't build I'm not going to fight it. I'm not a kernel Dev. Just giving it a shot.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Elvis_Marmaduke:
If it doesn't we should send a psa towards ktoonz haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dubbsy:
Well, my kernel was good. But there are still issues. It's stubborn as hell and refuses to NOT point to GSM only.

Project on hold because I want to actually end the week with accomplishing something :good: :eek: :silly:

I think I have all the files KT would need to build a 4.3 kernel. But he'd probably still prefer to wait until 4.3 source was released.

When I logged the errors they weren't specifically kernel related so I need to track down all the references to GSM and change them/remove them. Since I don't have a CDMA/VZW/Sprint 4.3 build to reference it's pretty much educated guess work. :silly:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] DocteurN:
I'm looking for a small .exe file that can switch to Today screen without closing applications (like 'Today' option in SBP Pocket +)

Why, you'll ask me ?

Because I'd like to switch to today screen with my voice using Microsoft "Voice Command"

I'm already able to :

- Power off

- suspend

- soft reset

- Rotate screen

my Magician with some little applications command by voice but I can't find an exe file to switch to today screen... :(

Thanks in advance ;)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] DocteurN:
I find what I was looking for :D

I post it there if it interests somebody...

I use PHM Keys for Pocket PC a freeware developed by Philippe Majerus

I extract PHMKeys.exe (34 Ko) and put it in \Program Files\Today (but you can put it wherever you want)

After this I create a shortcut in \Windows\Starting Menu\Programs to PHMKeys.exe with this Target :

"\Program Files\Today\PHMKeys.exe" Today?"\Program Files\Today\PHMKeys.exe",-117

I name it Today.lnk

That way when I pronounce "Launch Today" the today screen appears :D
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Chatty:
Very interesting because I also use VC. And I do want to use it for more, than the built-in abilities.

1. How to create a shortcut and what do its elements mean?

2. How to switch between full volume/no volume + vibra? Built in command only changes telephone volume.

3. How do your other named shortcuts look like? (Power off and so on)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] ioneng:
I think u can just say "start today" on voice command without any extra addon. I just tried it and it worked.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] FOSA:
RE

Hi DocteurN

Can share how to use VC to

- Power off

- suspend

- soft reset

- Rotate screen

and what programs are required?

Thanks
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] Heimiko:
I would realy REALY like to add skype ability to VC.

Much like as the call command works, but instead of a regular, using SkypeOut.

Like saying:

say: Skype <conctact name>

VC response: home or mobile

say: Mobile

I know it's like: offering a finger and trying to take the whole arm, but this would be realy convenient.

Anyone an idea if this could be accomplished?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] DocteurN:
Chatty > to create shortcut I use Resco Explorer : I Tap and Hold on PHMKeys.exe then Copy. Second Tap and Hold then Paste Shortcut.

A file named PHMKeys.lnk is created.

Rename it Today.lnk for example

Make a tap and hold on this file then Properties > Shortcut

That where you copy :

"\Program Files\Today\PHMKeys.exe" Today?"\Program Files\Today\PHMKeys.exe",-117

Copy the link in \Windows\Starting Menu\Programs and that's all

ioneng > Yes you're right !

but I'm using the french version of VC and I made a wrong translation of what I said ;)

FOSA > I'm using little exe files (freewares) I've found on the net and that extracted from packages

Here they are :
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] DocteurN:
Heimiko > Sorry for Skype I've got no idea...
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] DocteurN:
Seeking deeply in 'PHM Keys' I find that you can use PHMKey.exe for a lot of interesting things just by creating shortcuts :D

Here are what you can do (text is from PHM site) :

Today - Returns to Today screen

My Documents - Opens My Documents folder

Close - Closes active program

Task Switch - Toggles between running programs

Next Window - Cycle through open programs forward

Prev. Window - Cycle through open programs backward

Undo - Cancels previous action

Redo - Cancels previous undo action

Cut - Cuts the selected item

Copy - Copies the selected item

Paste - Pastes the selected item

Page Up - Move one page up / to previous page

Page Down - Move one page down / to next page

Volume +/- Changes Volume

Lock - Shows the system password screen

Suspend - Turns off your Pocket PC

Rotate - Next display orientation clockwise

Rotate Left - Toggle display between 0° and 270°

Rotate Right - Toggle display between 0° and 90°

Rotate Reverse - Toggle display between 0° and 180°

I make a zip of all this shortcuts.

You just have to copy PHMKeys.exe in \Windows and the lnk files in \Windows\Starting Menu\Programs (you'd better create a folder before copy)

You can rename lnk files the way you want and it would work with VC :D
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] DocteurN:
Now I'm looking for an exe file that can mute/unmute the volume.

You launch it one time => mute

A second time => unmute

I only find this utility : AutoMute (11 Ko)

But it intended to turn the volume down for a specific interval of time...

Anybody knows an application that does that ?
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] FOSA:
RE

Hi DocteurN,

Thanks for the files.

Just one question though. When you use VC to activate the files (like reset, poweroff, screensave etc) is there a pop up message box which says "Are you sure you want to xxxxx...Yes..No" upon which you manually tap either YES or NO action or that it'll execute the program stratightway without any pop up message box?

BTW, where to install all the mentioned files?

Thanks again
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] DocteurN:
No, there is no popup, the program is execute straightway :D

Where to install the files ?

Hi!

I think your Reset has a problem.

When I click on it it pops up a message "Are you sure you want to rest your Pocket PC? Any unsaved data will be lost."
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] DocteurN:
No, Why ?

That what does a soft reset... If you haven't saved your data (a Word document for exemple you'll lost it)

If you're afraid it does a hard reset, that not the case ;)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] FOSA:
RE

Hi DocteurN,

There's another soft reset freeware utility which soft resets immediately WITHOUT a pop-up message. I managed to find on the net which does the job nicely.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] FOSA:
RE

Hi noviur,

VC cannot read email to you.

What you need is a TTS (text-to-speech) 3rd party program. I think one of the Toshiba's PPC has a simple TTS engine built-in

:)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] noviur:
Thank you, Fosa

I know that it can not... but thought may be somebody tweak it :)

I was looking for any TTS application for PPC... Found something called Fonix Voice Central - they described it as app, which is doing it - i tried - no way :(

any suggestions would be appreciated

[Micromax A110] CM Punk:
Please help..

Hello Jatin, I have followed all the above steps carefully but still I'm unable to root my device. Please refer the following screenshots and help me as early as possible. Thanks in advance.
[Micromax A110] jatin@1:
First thing that please do not quote the whole post especially the main one....as it simply makes the thread ugly.

when you ask any question in a particular thread it is obvious that you will be asking question related to that only...:cyclops:

AND REGARDING THE ERROR.....IT LOOKS AS THERE ARE MORE THAN ONE EMULATORS RUNNING AND IT IS GIVING ERROR BECAUSE OF IT.

DISCONNECT ALL OTHER REMOVABLE DEVICES CONNECTED WITH YOUR PC...

HAVE YOU FOLLOWED ALL THE STEPS AS DESCRIBED IN THE THREAD? AND DOWNLOADED ALL THE FILES FROM THIS THREAD ONLY??IF NOT SIMPLY DOWNLOAD THEM FROM HERE AND PLS FOLLOW ALL THE STEPS STRICTLY AS GIVEN IN THE POST..

TRY AND REPORT.:)

BEST OF LUCK.:good:
[Micromax A110] CM Punk:
Thanks for the quick response.

What does more than one emulator means?

I don't have any other removable device connected to my pc, and yes, I downloaded all the files from this thread only. What else can I do? Where am I missing out?
[Micromax A110] jatin@1:
Emulator is a hardware or software used for duplication of behavior of main system to host system.

In short your pc is main system here and device is emulated system.

I think you should than turn on usb debugging and set device as media storage and try.

IF YOU ARE STILL UNABLE TO ROOT THEN TELL ME AND I HAVE ANOTHER METHOD FOR YOU.:beer: cheers.
[Micromax A110] CM Punk:
I was trying with usb debugging all the way through with media storage as default but still no success. What's the other method?
[Micromax A110] icoolguy1995:
No just on usb debugging

And are you trying to run it as administrator?
[Micromax A110] CM Punk:
Nope. I'm doing exactly as mentioned above.I even tried it on another os of windows 7 and another laptop too, but to no avail.
[Micromax A110] jatin@1:
So here comes the second method.

FIRST DOWNLOAD THE FOLLOWING FILES:

1.Sp flash tools

link: http://db.tt/3JhQmUWh

Password of sp flash tools-jatin@1

2.recovery image

link: www.mediafire.com/download/2j9rlu41ksnz83z/recovery.zip

3.superuser binaries

link: download.chainfire.eu/310/SuperSU-v1.04.zip

Extract sp flash tools and recovery.zip to get recovery.img( .img is the file type)

open sp flash tools(run as administrator)

.

click on scatter loading option and browse for the file in that folder

where you have extracted flash tools.you will find a text file...select it.

now a list of files will be shown in the flash tools

check RECOVERY file

now select RECOVERY FILE by single clicking on it

browse for the location where u have placed the downloaded recovery image and select the extracted recovery image.

NOTE-IF YOU FIND ALL THE FILES INCLUDING RECOVERY FILE ALSO SELECTED THEN MAKE SURE TO DESELECT ALL EXCEPT RECOVERY.

NOW SWITCH OFF YOUR PHONE AND REMOVE THE BATTERY

now click on download option in flash tools.....

connect your phone in 'BATTERY REMOVED' state

wait till the process completes....

after the process has been completed it will show DOWNLOAD OK

close sp flash tools and disconnect ur fone from ur pc and put the battery back.

WITH THIS U HAVE FLASHED CLOCKWORK RECOVERY ON YOUR CANVAS 2.

place the superuser.zip file in your phone's sd card(prefferably internal)

but do not extract it.

now BOOT INTO CLOCKWORK RECOVERY MODE by holding power key+vol.up key+vol.down key.

select install zip from sd card

then choose zip from internal sd card(if you have placed it in internal sd or otherwise select choose zip from sd card)

select the above placed zip and flash it.....

go back and reboot system

AFTER REBOOTING YOU WILL FIND A SUPERUSER APP IN YOUR PHONE

THIS MEANS THAT YOUR PHONE HAS BEEN ROOTED

Hit thx...it wont cost u;)
[Micromax A110] CM Punk:
I'm stuck at the point where I'm supposed to click the download option in the flash tool coz nothing is happening after that. A dialogue box pops up which reads "Not all images are correctly loaded which may cause boot up issue! Do you still want to go on downloading anyway?" And when I'm clicking on Yes, the download progress is remaining unmoved at 0%. plz help. Screenshot included.

EDIT : Looks like this method is for jellybean. I'm using stock ics.
[Micromax A110] icoolguy1995:
I prefer you use binary4u method i think you are getting these error because when you were rooting a another device was connected or try to as admin
[Micromax A110] jatin@1:
Ya i also thought that this could be the reason but he told me that only one device is connected...that why i asked him to follow the method of rooting jellybean because it also works on ics.:D
[Micromax A110] jatin@1:
YOUR PROBLEM IS SIMPLY THIS THAT PRE- LOADER DRIVERS FOR YOUR PHONE ARE NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED IN YOUR PC. That's why sp flash tools is unable to connect to your phone and flash recovery.and so there is no progress.

TO INSTALL PROPER DRIVERS GO TO THIS THREAD.

Link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2370906

And i know that the method i suggested is to root jellybean but it works fine on ics also ( but you cannot root jellybean via ics method)

**After installing proper drivers try again the above mentioned method and it should work.

And regarding that message... it will always come because all the images required to flash a new firmware are not properly loaded.

Ignore it because you are after all not flashing a whole new firmware but simply recovery in your phone.

Best if luck.:)
[Micromax A110] CM Punk:
I have already been into that link since even I thought that I'm having driver issues but my device is included under adb in device manager and when I tried to update the drivers, it said that the best drivers are already installed.

I'm lost in a limbo, don't know what to do.
[Micromax A110] icoolguy1995:
Did you tried to run as admin
[Micromax A110] CM Punk:
Yes.
[Micromax A110] icoolguy1995:
Ok My last suggestion.

Remove all the connected device(dongles, bluetooth device) from your comp except your mobile with Usb debugging on.

restart your comp.

now place it in C drive(just for caution) or if it was on C drive move it to another drive.

Now try to root if it doesn't root.

Try frameroot.

Try with a different port or with different cable.

CWM Recovery crashed.

My CWM Recovery suddenly crashed today. I tried to get it back using mobile uncle tools as well as sp flash tools (it even showed download complete) but still couldn't get it back. I even tried different versions of cwm but still no success. And to make things worse, whenever I try to boot into recovery, the device gets a factory reset. Tried TWRP but even that formatted the phone. Please help.
