[General Questions and Answers] mililani:
Hi,

Since I can't post to the massive Schizoid ROM thread, I will post here. I just upgraded to the latest ROM image, and for some reason, I can no longer access Google Play. It says there is no network connection. In fact, my wifi connection symbol is grey now (it used to be blue). Other network apps work, like the browser, but google play and voice no longer respond.

Has this happened to anyone else? I am reverting to a previous backup. Thanks.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlwaysDroid:
I know this is a silly question. But I cracked the back of my nexus 4 from a 1 foot drop, (out of my pocket while I was crouched down spray painting in the garage). Just before I did this I was starting to have battery issues, basically under 20% the phone doesn't charge unless its off. Even on the stock charger, it just loses power and then dies and turns off again. Its frustrating now because I lost my warranty due to cracking it.

So My question is, if I go on (Ebay) and buy that glass, will I be able to do a clean enough install that they will take it as warranty and not notice? I don't want to buy the whole back assembly because its rather expensive with all the antennas to keep everything working.

I'd like to hear your opinions, or from people who have replaced just the glass before. Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lopezk38:
You can do it, you just have to take off the entire back cover, peel off the NFC and charging coils, and gently pry out the glass. Look up the thread where someone put in a second battery (total of 4200 mah) in his Nexus. He has removed the (shattered) back glass off of his phone, and replaced it with a plastic housing for the 2nd battery. You could see how he got the glass off without damaging the cover. The hardest part I would think would be getting the glass to stick on while keeping the stock look. I don't know what kind of adhesive LG uses to glue on the glass, but ideally you would want to use the same kind.

[LG Optimus G Pro] Dancingrock:
Good afternoon everyone, I was at work today and I went to reset my phone and when it was booting everything looked normal and then my phone went straight to TWRP. I tried rebooting and it kept on going to TWRP. I tried to flash my backup and that didn't resove the issue either. When I power on the phone I get "Secure boot error" in the upper left corner. I have been using this phone with out any issues for the past month and now all of a sudden I can't do anything. I need some guidance on what I can do to get this phone just back to working order. thank you in advance.
[LG Optimus G Pro] ReggieSmith:
Have you been ignoring the OTA update? Funny how after a certain number of times it will just run.

From where you are, flashing back to stock is your only option. Then grab the OTA update, install tarp & root.

This is what I ended up doing it sucks but at least I have the OTA update.

Hi there you guys, I need some serious help here. Has anyone managed to copy his contacts from wm2003se to wm2005 after upgrading it to the latests release by BUZZ.... Hey BUZZ THANKS !!!!

Problem is that xBackup does not work properly under wm2005. I use xBackup and Sprite Backup to backup my contacts and restore them at a later time. But now I'm stuck, how the hell am I gonna copy my old contacts from the wm2003se to the new wm2005 without using xBackup or Sprite Backup. Any suggestions would help and your quick responce would be highly appreciated. Thanks.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] monee:
dyuring the time you using the wm03 se)i think to make easy for you is first have a conection between the outlook on your pc and ppc then when you do find out tha all your contacts (beside tasks and calender) have been sync then you will see all your infos transfert to outlook ( check it out first) once that done perfectly,

then you can install the wm05 and syn again all you infos will be back again.

remember dont delete the infos of your membership with the activesyn of the older nickname that you used before,.

i hope it will work out very well with u.

[Android Apps and Games] muneebrocks:
which phone do you have?

alot of alarm clocks or even calander like one in htc default one gives you an option to set recurring reminders

like you set it for 7 pm and recurring everyday monday-saturday

hence you only need to set it for just one time period like 7 pm 5 am etc and it will take care for the rest of the month by itself

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Hello

I'm kinda new to all of this as I didn't experience it before on my iPhone, but now on my HTC ONE while setting up my college email (exchange activesync) and reading the manual on doing it there were information on accepting device administration and to be honest I don't want that thing to happen to my phone or even a thing of my phone to be shared with my college. Is there a way to disable it or is it even applied?

If I have to remove the account from my phone I have no problem doing so.

My phone is HTC One running the latest 4.2.2 android version.

Really appreciate all the help I can get.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] yazyazoo:
I was wondering if there were any ROMS that have patched up the security hole as described here. http://www.latimes.com/business/tec...oted-apps-master-key-20130717,0,7213340.story

Also what ROM would be best for the EVO LTE that would allow me to tether with WiFi Tether. I have tried MeanBean MeanICS, Ourboros, Viper but these seem to slow down due to the customizations they have. Is there a rom that is lighter than stock on resources, tethers with wifi tether and doesn't slow down over time? I tried Ourboros which is promising but has a few quirks that I would wait for before using it for a daily driver.

Thanks.

DOWNLOAD AND INSTALLATION:

GooManager:

The fastest and easiest way to install TWRP is to use the GooManager app:

Play Store Link

Direct Download

1) Install GooManager from the Play Store

2) Open GooManager and provide root permissions

3) Hit Menu (or the button with the 3 dots on your screen) and then Install OpenRecovery

ZIP file

Flash the ZIP file in your existing recovery to install TWRP.

You can find ZIP files here, choose the version you want, the file has to end with .zip.

http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/p500/

Recovery Image

Use fastboot or flash_image to install this image.

You can find IMG files here, choose the version you want, the file has to end with .img.

http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/p500/

OLD UPDATE-BINARY (error executing updater binary in ZIP)

P500 is fairly old device, so it is quite possible that some ROMs use old update-binary in their ZIP files, which is not compatible with TWRP. This is not a bug, rather a design feature - TWRP simply does not use such old parts anymore.

You can fix the ZIP by yourself. Download correct update-binary and put it to folder META-INF/com/google/android/ in the ZIP file. You should see previous update-binary in there, just overwrite it.

The binary affects only the ZIP file, nothing else - it is used only to install the contents of the ZIP file.

[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] engr_exxi:
Let me thank the OP first for creating twrp.

Since I have a hard-to-press power button this recovery really helps a lot.

No more pressing down hard on hardware buttons!

update:

hmm.. somehow just replacing the updater-binary doesn't fix the problem

update 2:

@OP

after a couple of research i stumbled upon this one that uses a twrp 2.6 too.

he stated that

what does he mean by format takes 2: format("MTD", "boot").?

if i found this line at updater-script of CM10.1.3 (line 11)

format("yaffs2", "MTD", "system", "0", "/system");

should i change it to?

format("yaffs2", "MTD");
format("system", "0");
format("/system");

If I remove all the code, as I flash the new zip, the old files are kept in system, its just like its being factory reseted.

Thanks

Update 3:

With a little bit of experiments leading to slight mind disturbances at the middle of the night...

I managed to successfully flash a kernel.

I used cm10.1.3 by armv6.

Added this binary (see attachments)

and modified the updater-script on the line 11 to

format("yaffs2", "MTD", "system", "0");

[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
2.6.1.2 released, it fixes crash when restoring /sd-ext. Unfortunatelly, the change conflicts with other devices, so it's rather difficult to get it to mainline :/ Sorry it tooks so long, I had some stuff to do.
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] ikunalgautam:
thanks tass, is 2.6.1.2 stable build now?
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
What do you mean, stable? I did not encounter any more crashes and none are reported, but it still is not in official goo.im directory, because the crash fixes conflict with other devices :/
[Optimus One, P500 Original Android Development] Tasssadar:
TWRP 2.6.3.0 was released. I managed to fix the crashes during restore, hopefully without breaking all other devices in the process. It is now available on usual goo.im address, http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/p500/. The goo manager still tries to install 2.6.1.0 for me, but that should fix itself after a while(?), the files are there.

What kitkat ROM? I don't see any here. Also, I think there is literally nothing I can do about set_metadata failing on p500, it doesn't even have filesystem which supports extended atrributes. The update-binary (which is part of the ZIP) must be hacked to disable xattrs.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Babanker:
Hey guys-

I've read the FAQs but wanted to get a fresh opinion in case any of the new ROMs out are better suited to my needs. I just got a new Galaxy S3 in from Asurion (broke the screen on my existing GS3), and I want to get a good, fresh start.

I hate the Verizon bloatware and seemingly slow default firmware. Before I go ahead and load all of my files (pictures, videos, contacts, texts, etc.) onto the new phone, I wanted to get a "fresh" or "clean" ROM in place. I don't really need anything uber fancy, but something that's got the functional basics and is free of bloatware.

Before I broke my old phone, it got somewhat laggy (typing delayed) and I feel it was due to the Verizon stock ROM. What do you all feel is the cleanest, safest, and easist to load ROM?

Also, what's the best way to backup my old phone? I've still got both on handy and can boot my Mac into Windows if needed.

Sorry ahead of time for improper lingo leading to confusion. Also appreciate any help.

Cheers!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
All the roms are free of bloatware and have the functional basics. You ask for the safest, cleanest and easiest to load rom when all roms are safe, clean and easy to load otherwise none of the roms would be posted. Lastly no rom is the best as all have a flaw or 2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobAbooE:
I agree. Just get to flashing.

Backup your imei and make sure you are unlocked.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KennyG123:
First...kudos for asking in the right section

Second...it is impossible for anyone to give you a good recommendation as they are not you and what you may think is best will not necessarily be what others think is best. So before you load anything on the new phone try a few..give them a day or two each before you decide. Then load it up.

We will keep this thread open instead of closing as a "what's the best rom" thread as you had other questions about backing up you wanted answered.

Happy Flashing

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] droidx2.3.3:
Ive looked though the development section but can find anything. Basically what im looking for is a "lean" kernal. When I was on the gs3 (I think) there was a kernal that was called lean kernal and it was basically a minimal profile that got great battery life. I almost never do anything that requires alot of cpu usage.

Most of my time is spent on forums and YouTube/ Netflix. I dont think those are cpu hogs. And when ibdo play games they are like angry birds, candy crush, and coin dozer. That about it. I can see the games being a little on the higher usage side. But I still have yet to get these awesome battery stats that I see.

I am connected to strong wifi almost all the time and screen set to auto. Also I dont use gps, nfc, or any of that. Thanks for any tips. I can post one of those battery usage logs but I cant remember the name of the app off the top of my head. Haha.

Also im on beans build 19 and the stock kernal. All other kernals ive tried (ones under his aroma setting) have yeilded the same if not worse battery life. Thanks again.
