something is definitely different. even after re-editing my vold.fstab file the root hack to do that still doesn't work.

Have not tested yet

I stopped auto update as I already had something like this working I am thinking they may enable it for us soon

Help needed with the playstore it's a general android issue not with installing it on ouya had no problems with that
[HTC Desire C] me4488:
I know most of you don't expect me starting a thread in the Q&A but I am out of ideas. I googled, searched, duh, but found nothing that could be useful to me.

The problem is that the file attached is giving me an error.

I tried editing it in several ways for about 2 hours but it doesn't work.

I would really appreciate if someone would either link me to a working one/tell me where the error is/fix it and point out the error.

Im curious as to what causes the error.

Thanks :3
[HTC Desire C] cybojenix:
which rom are you building?

best if you do a repo sync
[HTC Desire C] me4488:
I am building Cyanogenmod 9.

I tried deleting the frameworks folder, where the error is and then re-repo sync, but to no avail. :T

And yeah, to my surprise I did try repo syncing. o.o

You are missing an } sine the compiler passes by the typedef thing. Also you are misssing an ; but most of the errors are from }. I'll look over the code and I'll chech for the misssing/wrong }.
[HTC Desire C] me4488:
That's what it says but I reviewed the file and did not find any errors. So any help would be appreciated :3
[HTC Desire C] SignOfTheShadow:
Bump

I hate reviving a dead thread, but I'm going through the same problem right now, building CM9, and I got the same Acodec.cpp errors. I also checked the file and it was written correctly. I'm not sure how to fix this, and could use some help from the community.
[HTC Desire C] bugkillr:
Looks like there was something missing in the struct typedef thing.

Try removing //QCOM_HARDWARE from line #172
[HTC Desire C] SignOfTheShadow:
I can't access PasteBin from work (they consider the text there to be "Personal Storage & Backup"), so the file in it's entirety is attached after pasting into a .txt file.

This is Line 176, mentioned in the error code, with 5 lines before and after:

#endif
#endif //QCOM_HARDWARE

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

struct ACodec::BaseState : public AState {
BaseState(ACodec *codec, const sp<AState> &parentState = NULL);

protected:
enum PortMode {
KEEP_BUFFERS,

and this is line 3041, with 5 before (3041 is the last line):

LOGV("FlushingOutputState Change state to port settings changed");
mCodec->changeState(mCodec->mOutputPortSettingsChangedState);
}
}
#endif
} // namespace android

I'm totally lost as far as this file goes. I'm no good with C++... Thank you for taking an interest, I really do appreciate it. I messaged Nick Bacon (OP) and he gave me some suggestions, but nothing really panned out.
[HTC Desire C] SignOfTheShadow:
I removed "//QCOM_HARDWARE" from line 172 and am brunching as we speak. I'll edit with the results in a few.

EDIT: No good. Same error.

2nd EDIT: I added a ";" and two carriage returns before "struct" on line 176, and that seemed to just give me more errors:

[HTC Desire C] bugkillr:
Well, I don't even have the libraries used in this code and its a large piece of code. So what I can suggest you is setting breakpoints and debugging in Eclipse or a good IDE. OR alternatively you can use gdb or valgrind to see extended flaws in the code. Because just rectifying the bugs in the code would definitely solve the issue.
[HTC Desire C] SignOfTheShadow:
I ended up adding:

to line 175 of the original file. It worked. Thanks for helping.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] ruffneckZeVo:
I said I wasn't going to get the s4 but here I am with it. So I'm sure I'll end up with the g2 and note 3. Its a bad addiction always having to get the newest device.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] bajasur:
All in all. I am very pleased with this phone...however I do tend to agree with the CEO of Motorola though..

What can the S4 do that the S3 can't? (That really matters)...

Most of the upgrades are gimmicky and will be applied to the S3 with 4.2 update.

For me the note 3 is really going to have to be a game changer to move to that device.

Truth is I'm clueless at which manufacturer is the right direction to move in after this phone... :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] IamPro:
I know right :laugh:

I think bigger screen, better processor and spen make sense to upgrade at least for me. After Note 3 tho i don't think I will change phones for a while. It would be nice to have the Moto X features with the next gen specs but who knows when that will happen.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] roc_vader:
Verizon tried locking the S3 down and failed. They are successful till now, but who knows. However, with AT&T going the same path as Verizon, wouldn't blocking off the developers be the death of the Samsung brand (eventually)? The only thing people would be able to do effectively would be developing apps, and we know that this has not worked very well for other platforms (oranges and doors)

True that I can get a developer S4, but I do like the Samsung bloatware :D for some new apps and the gestures (And the saving $$$)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] all3rd:
I actually wouldn't hate the bloatware if it wasn't 9gb; I didn't care to spend an extra 25 dollars for a sandisk microsd card.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RaptorMD:
I was prepared to send my GS4 back to Verizon and wait it out a few months and pick up a used GS3 on off eBay. Well GS3 16GB are going for nearly the same price as my on contract S4, so in the end I am keeping it . . . for now. If the GN3 turns out to be a real WOW device I will sell and move on, but 3GB of RAM is not the big motivator, it must be available in 32GB or 64GB on Verizon and have at least 23+GB of usable space or else why bother.

The G2, just doesn't hold much interest, no expansion card so you get what you got internal and that is never enough for me. Plus that .2 of extra screen is really the soft keys at the bottom so its not an upgrade over the S4, sure S800 processor but so what the GN3 will have an S800 and 3GB of RAM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] brycekerr:
I'd gladly switch to the moto x if I could find a straight up trade... the processor might be older but I like the idea of it being optimized. Honestly a device shouldn't need to have these work horse processors to run smoothly (see any Windows Phone), but that's the nature of the OS. Plus this thing is huge...I have little hands and I feel like I'm in one of those burger King commercials

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] andybones:
It's tough for me to say this, as I was a longgg time HTC user,

Eris, Inc1, Inc2, Inc4, Rezound, DNA, (I'm even apart of the HTC Elevate) then I got the SG3, then SG4, and I love both the SG3 and SG4, but I won't be selling this SG4 and paying the difference for the same phone but with an unlocked bootloader.

I would rather use HTC dev unlock even than have just root and no option to flash ROMs.

We will have to see, it's hard to say if anyone is even close on the bootloader because you'd think that

1) they would want to wait for the bounty to get as high as possible but

2) what if another team is doing the same and the one above has no idea?

I hope that's not the case, and if it is the teams team up and crack the code.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xs11e:
I prefer HTC's Sense to Samsung's TouchWiz. All my previous experience has been with HTC phones and I like them but......

No Micro SD card?

Non-replaceable battery?

Not if it were free! The above "features" make the phone totally useless to me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 1454:
I was a long time HTC user. I had the XV6800, TP2, ThunderTurd, and the Rezound. But the lack of software updates and just generally bad customer service and QC on their later devices really turned me off. That and they seem to refuse to listen to their customers when it comes to batteries and SD cards. (IMO). I mean what does it hurt to include them even if they don't get used? That, to me, was the straw that broke the camels back. I don't like paying HTC/Samsung/etc a premium just for them adding memory. Just the same as I don't like paying Asus, or whomever a premium for adding a few extra gig of ram or HDD space(or in my case SDD space). I'll add it myself and save the money. But don't force me to do it your way or you won't get my business.

and its locked again,
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RaptorMD:
I had the GS4 but without an unlocked bootloader I could not risk wasting my upgrade. If it gets there I will be glad to consider it again, if I can get a 32GB with MDK I would consider it again. For now I am looking at the GN3 which to me is a great well rounded device that will likely get root, but also may have issues with bootloader.

For once I could not see me keeping a phone for 3 months only to pay the difference to upgrade and since I was late the GS4 party I could get out before it was too late.

The HTC One is an awesome phone, but Verizon again likes to offer only 16GB & 32GB phones so I don't think the 64GB will ever arrive and if it does it will be months later.

Also add insult to injury, HTC Dev after 1 day NO LONGER UNLOCKS the HTC One on Verizon. They got that door closed pretty F'n fast.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Dobrah:
how come it has to have a microSD slot? what benefit does that provide?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] R4NDR01D:
Too many. I like to watch HD movies on HD tablets, which consume lots of valuable space. My 16GB iPad has to be dumped constantly of pictures and music just to make room for ONE movie. With a 64GB microSD I can save the on board storage for apps, app cache, and pictures and use my microSD for movies and music. Plus I find transferring files onto a microSD is more convenient and faster than having to hook up your phone via USB.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] whitesides:
You can purchase an external disk from 500 GB - 1 TB to save your videos and 1 connect port to connect it with your phone or tablet. I think that's better idea than microSD
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] fillyo:
While that is true, that eliminates the portability, streaming from cloud while on wifi may be better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] joshm.1219:
Well the whole point to microSD is the fact it's inside of your device, if you take out the portability factor you're open to a ton of alternatives. :p

Yeah, I gree with you.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Eric214:
I sold my S4 MDK VZW phone and took Tmobile up on their offer to pay off my contract ($270) and went to the Note 3. The Tmobile Note 3 comes with an unlocked bootloader (NOT an exploit) and with unlimited 4g LTE data for $70 a month it was a no-brainer. Just check out the service in your area. For me the signal strength is about the same as VZW -85 to -90dbm and i get faster speeds. VZW was around 15-20mbps down compared to 25-30mbps down with Tmo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thecrunked:
i am thinking about switching carriers too. i currently have VZW, unfortunately for me tmobile isn't too great in my area as far as im aware. do you know if att locks down the bootloader like vzw does?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Eric214:
As far as locking crap down, the biggest offenders are VZW and AT&T. I don't know about each device but they are both about the same in general. You'd have to look at each device that you're interested in to be certain unless someone can chime in.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
At&T is just like Verizon. The service on sprint isn't that great either but they don't lock down their phones. Check em out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
How about T-Mobile, How are they about locking down their phones or not since they merged with AT&T? I had them many years ago though and the service (signal) sucked. :eek:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
AFAIK TMobile is the way to go.

Unlocked bootloaders and Better service than sprint I hear.

Version for me and a lot of others is the only way to go because of their service.. But TMobile is claiming to be faster now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thecrunked:
I would switch to tmob in a heartbeat if the signal in my area wasn't significantly worse than att or vzw. Sprint might as well be 2 tin cups attached with a string out here lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lazer9:
Yea, I switched from Big Red for a brief stint a little over a year ago to Sprint and they absolutely sucked. I was lucky to get 1 bar of service both at work and home and that was always on roaming. I got off of them real fast in the 30day or whatever period... I like T-Mobiles offerings and there thing about paying the ETFs to switch (if that's even still going on), I'm just terrified that there service won't be close to what I get with Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] JavaManRules-GS4:
Is the GS4 bootloader unlocked on T-Mobiles phones?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Sure is. Sprints are too but their service is god awful. I don't know how TMobiles is but I think its better.

My girls s4 is sprint and let me tell you... I think two cans with a string going between them would get better service
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xs11e:
One of those "What should I do" posts, sorry!

My much loved S4 is un-repairable, it's too badly smashed. So...

I activated my S3 but I'm interested in a new phone and I have almost forever before I'm due for a new one, I was only about 5 months into my contract when I disasterized my S4.

What I want/need:

1. I'm sticking with Verizon.

2. I want a removable SD card and

3. a removable battery.

4. must be rootable and flashable with an unlocked bootloader.

I know I've eliminated a lot of phones... is there any help for me?

Ideas please?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xs11e:
Thanks for the correction, I didn't stay on the site long enough to see that, sorry.

I wonder if the battery would be a deal killer? I leave my phone on 24/7, in the evenings, before I go out, I'll swap the battery with the spare that's sitting in the charger so I'll have a fresh one, I really doubt the battery would last long enough to make it to bed time when I charge it again and what about when the battery is two years old, that seems to be when the life goes way down....

I do like Sense MUCH more than TouchWiz, could I live with an unrooted, unflashed phone? Nah.....

One more thing; you might want to Google battery life history with the HTC phones. I just read an article regarding the teardown score (2/10) on the new HTC One. Apparently the build quality is so good that replacing a battery will be a difficult task indeed. Good luck on whatever choice you make.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] s44:
GSM Arena put the M8 just under the Note 3. But note that the S5 has been rumored to have ridiculous battery life of its own, and is replaceable.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] tech_head:
yea, but the S5 will have "KNOX Pox".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] xs11e:
I suspect the time is coming when NO phones will be able to be modded in any way, Samsung has been very successful in locking down the S4, I believe other manufacturer's will do the same eventually. I think in two years or less you'll run any mobile phone exactly as issued and that's not something any of us want to see.

I hope I'm wrong.....
