[Sony Xperia ZL] AkaMod:
Sorry for bumping this thread, but I got exactly the same problem described by OP. But I simply can't get into the flashmode.

When I hold the volume (-) button and plug the cable at the phone, I got nothing more than the Windows USB sound and a red led of death on my ZL (C6503).

What I've already did:

1) Pressed the "Off" button beside the SD card slot a lot of times (holding it for a few seconds of course) before trying to get into the flashmode;

2) Tried SUS, PC Companion and Flashtool but couldn't get the flashmode or detected by any of them;

3) Keep it charging for more than 12 hours and all I got is this red led of Death!

Any help is welcome.

Cheers.

Edit:

Got the flashmode holding at the following way.

1) Pressed the "off" button beside the SD card slot for a few seconds and instead the 3 vibrations the red led blinked 3 times;

2) Hold the volume (-) button, connected the USB cable and keep holding for a lot of seconds, you will hear the Windows USB sound disconnecting and connecting a few times, wait until Flashtool recognize it and start flashing.

Is this downgrading from ME7 to MDK possible? If so please guide me in the right direction.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] scottgalit61:
Its not possible... Once you take the update theres no going back...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hondabomdc5:
So I am new to the s4 and rooting. I really want to install the Hyperdrive ROM. I have been researching and researching what to do and I think i have found my answer for now and im not happy about it.

From what i gathered, since i installed the update and I am now on ME7, there is no root method bc they locked the phone down. Is this correct?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] magneticzero:
Use the search button...this has been posted about a 1000 times...but yes you can root it but no custom recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bfmetcalf:
You can root, but cant install custom recoveries or roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] hondabomdc5:
Thanks for being kind and thanks for the info. I did state that I was new and have been looking. I could have started a whole new thread but instead asked the question in here. I do want to install the Hyperdrive rom but since with ME7 you cant install roms...looks like i wont be rooting until somebody gets this figured out. Again, thanks for being cool and answering my question.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Stauf99:
y can't we just odin back to mdk?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] magneticzero:
because of the bootloader will only allow signed packages to be installed on the phone and checks against older firmware and will not allow it. Unless you have the signed key you ain't flashing anything unless we find a workaround.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Slimfast35:
So why is there ROMs for the ME7 build if they can't be flashed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMGetwired:
This f@cking sucks!

So, I'm stuck on ME7 as well (32GB S4, otherwise I'd just go down to the store and swap it, complaining about something -- seems they don't stock them at any local corporate stores).

I'm coming from a Samsung Galaxy Nexus, and we have OMAP-Flash, which is like a low-level PROM flashing tool from the Samsung R&D team, and I could fix even a DEAD, or bricked phone with that. Is there something like that here to get back the original bootloader? I cant believe we're stuck on this crap... How 'bout a 2nd-init like my Droid-x days, or something slick like SafeStrap on the RAZR family?

...Just thinkin' "out loud".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] AliceBToklas:
Short answer is 'no' - you're currently stuck with root as your best option. Hopefully this will change in the not-too-distant future.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IMGetwired:
Yeah, this does suck.

Seems like we need someone to pick up the Dragonboard 8074 development kit to help us figure this out...even then, I'm sure Samsung has so many mods in there it'd be nuts to reverse engineer... Ugh, I'm so impatient! :silly:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] matt1733:
Because there for people that didn't get robbed by Samsung and update through the evil over the air update lol:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] najaboy:
You're not quite understanding what a rom is and is not. There is no such thing as a rom for ME7. There are roms that use the ME7 base. They are flashable only by those who have the MDK bootloader. When a build number is listed for a rom, it is the build that the rom is based from.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RaptorMD:
The ROM's that the devs based on MDK have been updated with the ME7 code just like any good developer does. But the bootloader those users have is still from their MDK (original) install. Once you go ME7 you can never go back, downgrade, crossgrade or get beyond the bootloader, for now anyways. Someone will find a way.

[Other SmartWatches] dproldan:
I have found a way to record audio with the MOTOACTV (using a headset with microphone):

download the attached amixer and aplay executables.

copy them to the /system/bin/ folder in your MotoACTV

adb remount
adb push amixer /system/bin/
adb push aplay /system/bin/
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/amixer
adb shell chmod 755 /system/bin/aplay
adb shell ln -s /system/bin/aplay /system/bin/arecord

Now we need to configure the audio input, this is the trick:

adb shell
amixer sset 'PGA Mux Right' 'MIC2'
amixer sset 'Audio Source' 'Mic2'
amixer sset 'XSP-IP Attenuation' 63

Now, we can use arecord and aplay to test:

adb shell
arecord -f cd -d 5 /sdcard/test.wav

will record for 5 seconds

aplay /sdcard/test.wav

Now, we now that there's nothing wrong with the hardware or the kernel, but I'm not sure if the problem lies in libaudio.so, libasound.so or in one of the android configurations.

Any ideas?
[Other SmartWatches] willfck4beer:
You sick son of a *****. Nice. Very nice
[Other SmartWatches] |SavageD|:
Wow, ingenius. Using alsa utils to perform recording. Sometimes I forget how close android is to linux. Great Find.
[Other SmartWatches] willfck4beer:
Any progress?

Got to be a library thing right?
[Other SmartWatches] willfck4beer:
Just curious if anyone's had any progress in this? I dusted the motoactv off yesterday and started playing with it again.

Do we still have a community? Ours is waaay better than that Samsung one - if we could just get audio working right.

I thought up kind of a neat idea on how to give vibrator support to motoactv:

we could open up a sony liveview (scrap out the screen and housing and just encase it in electrical tape or something small) and pair it with motoactv via bluetooth (running liveview on moto)... notifications would result in the liveview vibrating. :)))))) bit crazy but I think it'll work.
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
I've got one of those... a little scared to try though lol!
[Other SmartWatches] willfck4beer:
Well we could test to see if we can even pair liveview to actv first... do we have support for serial bluetooth profile?

I got Torque to download and install on the actv and I went to connect to my obd2 bluetooth dongle... but have to pre-pair them... and my actv only seems to find bluetooth headset/a2dp type things... I'm a bit foggy but I thought I downloaded some .zip add on/mod that was supposed to allow more profiles to function. Can't remember the details though. What is the extent of people's success with bluetooth beyond headset devices?
[Other SmartWatches] ronfurro:
Been able to bluetooth tether devices via a third part app. But, like you said, My Motoactv only recogines audio devices in the stock bluetooth settings.

PS. The Sony Liveview vibration is so weak, it is hardly worth the effort, even though the idea was most certainly thinking outside the "motoactv" box!

Hello. I am new in Android developing. I want to start from somethink "easy".

I just downloaded 2.3.6 JWB firemware with Semaphore kernel and i want to edit is.

I need help with this. My first think to edit is lockscreen. I want to Change font and center the clock but i dont know which files to edit.

Also in "MesoROM" i saw that lockscreen circle is changed to animated one (like s3 mini and other samsung devices with ICS/JB).

Anyone can help me to make this or to PORT this lockscreen from jw8 rom to jwb?

Also i want to make theme 'like s4' but also i dont know how to do it. Edit images isnt problem, XML is harder (i dont know which file to edit). I know HTML, CSS, PHP. I even used to "touch" C++, Java Sccript and XML so i can teach everythink verry fast. Just need some tutorial or a person who can be my "MASTER" :]

Please anserw this thread or message me :]
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baciany:
I have few questions. If anyone could anserw would be great.

1. How to change "auto rotation" togfle to "mobile data"

2. How to move "clear" button from carrier laber bar to the notification bar like in newest galaxy s series devices. I saw this in saurom and ana rom and cant make myself :(

3. Wchich file is the lockscreen xml file to change font etc.

Thanks :)

Hi there,

Please i need help,

I succesfully unlocked bootloader, install CWM and flash file, but i forgot to copy second file to phone. Now i can boot only too CWM or Fastboot and i need to copy rom file to phone ( One X).

Mounting in CWM not working

Thanks for help.
[HTC One X] desmond1303:
That is fairly easy...

Go into recovery, then select mount and from there mount mass storage, plug it in and there you go.

EDIT: OK now I saw that you said "Mounting in CWM not working"...

Could you please describe the problem... is there an error or it just doesn't pop up on the pc

I REALLY HOPE that you made a backup first so if nothing helps restore your nandroid and try again.

DO NEVER ANYTHING before BACKUP
[HTC One X] minergamerr:
Thanks

Thanks , i reinstall CWM and it works, now i have another problem MIUI stuck on boot logo MI :/
[HTC One X] nogotaclue:
Flash the boot.img in fastboot again, if you haven't already. even if you have it won't do any harm to do it again
[HTC One X] desmond1303:
in fastboot flash the kernel again and clear the cache

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot erase cache

learning how to compile wont make u a dev..maybe some knowledge about how things work although :p
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] AndyFox2011:
Little correction you need to make, the 50gb should be /home not /root

/root is the main install partition and can be about 20gb ;)

Trust me I'm a Linux expert :P
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] A_U:
oh dint know that..thanks for correcting me :)

any more errors, suggest :) thnx

edit - corrected :) cheers..
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] AndyFox2011:
I'll let ya know, it's just so you don't confuse people when they go to install Ubuntu, it's complex enough as it is to insure :)

---------- Post added at 08:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

Looks like I confused you :P 20 gb for the / partition and then 50gb for the /home partition ;)

Then as much as can be spared for swap, swap is good
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] A_U:
done.. :p yea got confused..

but frankly i dint allocate this much while i compiled. maybe 20 to 30 should be more than enough.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] AndyFox2011:
I have 150 for /home cause I have 3 rom sources on my pc and I use ccache, which I recommend using ccache if you have space for it, it speeds up rebuilds a lot :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] A_U:
yea ccache makes builts a lot faster..maybe reduce 30min roughly or even more depending upon processor
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] AndyFox2011:
Without ccache I can do a full build (from scratch) in an hour, with ccache it's 30 minutes :) but I still need more ram! It's not fast enough, more ram and bigger had! ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] A_U:
well i dont have that much fast config..but it took slim bean to build 4 hours with ccache :/ and dint boot too on first build..had to rebuild 5 to 6 times.. :p but later got it working with some wifi errors etc..
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] AndyFox2011:
Thats not bad... That's what my old pc took to build cmx :P
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] vishal007:
Hey guys, after reading your advanced replies above, can i ask some thing of low level? I installed ubuntu via wubi in a 25 GB partition. Idk about /home and /root partition will use how much space of it and also idk how much wubi use for swap from that memory. So will you please tell what actually wubi did ??
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] A_U:
wubi slows down the whole system after gradual use..

create a separate partition and install a distro on that..google how to do that..many youtube videos are there for ur help.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] vishal007:
I created a seperate partition, already done googling and following videos on youtube for installation of linux without wubi.

The problem was, my full hard disk was shown as a partition instead of individual drives while installing distro directly. I also saw how to create seperate /root and swap memory but i was being forced to create partition of my full hard drive again, no C: D: even the new one was there. So last i used wubi. Will u tell me what actually happened ? I will try again if you say and this time i will provide screenshot :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] AndyFox2011:
In windows don't create it as a partition, leave it as free space, then when it gets to partition options in Ubuntu install choose the something else option and do it manually

Use the free space you left to create 4 partitions,

=/ (this is the root, format it to ext4)

-/boot (make this 256mb, and again ext4)

- /home (ext4,this needs to be the biggest for all your data to be stored on)

- swap (as much as you can spare for swap, in the formatting options is has a format as swap setting)
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] F4uzan:
Bootup to LiveUSB, open GParted and tell me if the partition is detected.

If GParted detect it, reformat the partition (the free space) to ext4, spare 1 GB for swap.

Then, install Ubuntu. Try it.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] Alajarvi84:
I am using CM-10.2-20130905 also and it seems to be the only build working nicely. Notable so far are -->

- iR not working, tested with touchsquid samsung

- Samsung dock made the device bonkers

- Mobile networks generally work OK, at least Finnish Sonera works. Not sure about 4G (LTE), because in Lapland we have only 3G

- camera not working at all, also includes the light app

- bluetooth seems to work ok, at least with sixaxis

- accounts sync seems to work ok, tested with google, facebook, skydrive, dropbox, outlook etc

- The UI seems to be a little odd, is this even tablet-ui ?

- Some settings in options crash to desktop, not many tough

Tried the 20130914 also, and it was completely broken. I mean the device eventually crippled itself. Wireless networks and everything just stopped working.

So, the 20130905 is the right way it seems :)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Android Development] smegg:
Thanks for the feedback, i have to agree with you. noted these problems on original i925 thread.
