[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TofClock:
i've a question fot you :

Have you read the posts about wm2005 rom in this forum ?

the 1.60 rom have 180 Mb of ram (volatile) and 14.5 Mb of Storage (persistant)

The Extended rom is NOT used by wm2005 , you can totally erase the extended rom and install all you want ....

You can install ramdisk on 1.60 rom but it's non-persistant .

persistant = : if you remove battery , content of persistant memory stay ....

non-persistant = : if you remove battery , content of non-persistant memory don't stay !!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dreamtheater39:
thanks for your inputs TofClock.

I am aware of the fact that the ram disk is not persistent...the word "ram"disk is clear enough!

But i need the ram disk "just in case"...i thought it would make better sense to start using 1.60a only when i'm sure i can get more space in case i need it sometime later...for now 32 megs seems good enough though...

TofClock, by any chance could you mail me the ramdisk cab file ?? Heres my mail address...

sandeep@raptorentertainment.com

Thanks again!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] buzz_lightyear:
hmm...

well 1.60a has:

128MB Program memory

14.5MB Storage memory as system root

16MB ExtendedROM usable as storage

You cannot install RAMDisk on this version of ROM.

Well you can, but it will cause conflicts in the OS.

If you need more storage space, get yourself 1.50i.xx, where xx stands for amount of Program memory.

buzz
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dreamtheater39:
Thanks for your reply Buzz!

when I use 1.60a, I'd totally have 16MB+16MB of persistent storage right?

the question is, where do all the common files (DLLs etc.), contacts, messages etc. get installed/saved onto? One of the 16meg partitions right? My main worry is that all these common files, contacts etc. might exceed the 16meg partition that the OS is using...correct or would it??

I'd want persistent storage mainly, and as long as I can install a couple hundred megs of apps onto my storage card, I'm just fine!

thanks again big time :-)

Very nice guide, but i was wondering if this is working for other phones too? Which i think it does but i was kind of wondering about this part "Now comes the fun part: Building", i want to do this on samsung galaxy s2 (gt-i9100), will i write the same things (execpt from bunch mako)?
[Nexus 4 General] Cheerpipe:
You missed the "repo sync" command after creating roomservice.xml file, it is necessary to download the device specific files. (sorry my english)
[Nexus 4 General] klvnhng:
You are absolutely correct. Thanks for that :)

[Nexus 4 General] klvnhng:
You'd also need the correct proprietary (device-specific) files. I'm not sure that TheMuppets has the files for the i9100. You may need to extract them from a working build of CM yourself.

You can check out CM's guide for your device here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_i9100

[Nexus 4 General] klvnhng:
You probably didn't get the device blobs correctly. I did a search for the i9100 and it turns out that TheMuppets repo does have it.

So for roomservice.xml:

<manifest>
<project name="TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_samsung" path="vendor/samsung" remote="github" revision="cm-10.2" />
</manifest>

And when building:

brunch i9100
[Nexus 4 General] obtained:
TheMuppets does have i9100 proprietary files.

Edit: looks like I'm 1 minute late. :)

Also: make clobber and make clean are the same for cm. "make clobber" actually does a "make clean".

[MENTION=4983400]klvnhng[/MENTION]

Are you sure we can make this with Java 7?. I tried some days ago to build AOSP and some other ROM´s, and I had so much problems becasue of the Java version when building. I had Java 7, but specifically the build asked for Java 6, so I had to downgrade.

Another question would be if it is necessary to download the code for all the devices, instead of downloading the code just for Mako.

Thanks.

:D
[Nexus 4 General] klvnhng:
Hmm...you may be correct. I have both 6 and 7 installed, so it could be that I'm actually using 6.

Edit: JDK 6 is required (http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html). I have a mixed environment.

And yes, in order to build CM, you need to have the entire source repo synced. Sorry :P

Noob's question ; what are the differences between a home compiled rom and the rom you can download on the CM website ?
[Nexus 4 General] VoiD_Dweller:
Got the build done.. flashed it, flashed gapps, everything works excellent!

One thing though, I noticed the build size of the zip is 9 mb larger than the official nightly for yesterday. Whats up with that?

Also what are the perks of building on ubuntu 13.04 vs the recommended 12.04 I always see in the other guides? are the tools more optimized or something? I'm a linux newb so excuse me if it's a lame question ;)

---------- Post added at 08:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 AM ----------

You built it, and you don't have to wait for their build server. Also after you learn more about it, you can customize and add things of your own.. basically.
[Nexus 4 General] klvnhng:
To be honest, I'm not quite sure. My builds average 206 MB.

Apparently, the 3.8 kernel included in 13.04 handles tasks more efficiently. There are other optimizations as well, I'm sure. Most people recommend 12.04 because it is a LTS version and therefore will have bug fix and security updates for for 5 years, as opposed to 9 months. But I like to keep up-to-date :good:
[Nexus 10 General] moeduss:
Are there any touch wiz roms out for the Google nexus 10 Android 4.3 or other?

Thanks for your replies.
[Nexus 10 General] wireroid:
Nope. The hardware of the Nexus 10 is too different from any of Samsung's other tablets for a port to be worth the effort. Why would you want TouchWiz on a tablet anyway? It works okay on phones but the tablet versions are all a laggy unoptimized mess; scrolling on the home screen stutters even with nothing on it.
[Nexus 10 General] Rirere:
To be fair, there are a few nice things (Samsung's got some nice floating widgets built in and multi-window is apparently nice, though my Galaxy Tab 10.1 never saw it), and SAmsung was first to realize how nice power controls would be on a mainstream device. But back on topic, wireoid's right: you're not going to see enough interest to justify the enormous amount of work it would take to port a proprietary framework.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SlyMaelstrom:
I got my Galaxy S4 about 10 days ago and now as the outlook on unlocking the ME7 firmware is looking bleak, I'm inclined to see if I can get a return to Verizon on my 30 day warranty to hope I get a device with the original firmware. I had upgraded to the ME7 OTA shortly after I got it... I didn't really think twice about it when I was doing it and ended up regretting it that very night when I checked XDA for the first time about my new phone.

So I'm posting to ask for some opinions and ideas about this process... I assume I'm going to have to have some good excuse for the exchange and I'm sure I'm going to have to incur at least the $35.00 restocking fee. So, does anyone with experience with Verizon know the process well? What kind of fees am I looking at? It is worth it to attempt this? Does anyone have any ideas for reasons to tell them for the exchange? I want to just tell them that I updated system software and I'm unsatisfied with the responsiveness of the device after I did this and I'd like to exchange it, but I'm not sure if that'd be good enough for them. What do you all think?

Thanks.

EDIT: By the way, I didn't buy any insurance, if that matters.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Erisnoob:
If you are under 14 days you can exchange for another phone for $35 or return completely. No excuse needed. You can be unsatisfied changed your mind whatever. Doesn't matter. So yes your reason of not being satisfied is good enough.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SO_dank:
Just tell them im either returning it or you can swap it with a new phone. . Either way I'm not keeping this phone. . Nothing wrong with it I just want an older firmware. . Under 14 days your good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Phoenix_Boston:
I was in the exact same boat you were in about two weeks ago. I brought my phone in and claimed that I wanted to exchange it for a white version (I had the black one). The sales rep who was doing the exchange was the same guy who sold it to me, (whom I had told of my plans to root it and flash CM10 onto it), and asked if that was really the reason why I wanted to exchange it. I told him that the phone had downloaded ME7, and I was hoping to get a new phone with MDK on it. He brought out another black S4 to me, and charged me nothing. He put it in the system as a failed update. Good guy saved the day!

My take: Go in, tell them your phone updated itself without prompting you, and you'd like a new phone. Don't mention anything about rooting/bootloaders, and if they ask for a better reason, ask to switch to a different color. Chances are you'll end up footing the $35 restocking fee.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SlyMaelstrom:
Thanks, guys.

I went into a Verizon store today to try to get the exchange and got hassled... the guy insisted that there must be something wrong with the phone in order to exchange the device for an identical model or they would have to charge me the full, unsubsidized price. Of course, if I wanted to get the same phone with the other color it would only cost a restocking fee... go figure. I went on a rant about how that made no sense and that I wouldn't sit there trying to make it crash in front of them because it could take hours. He told me it was impossible, but I could call the Verizon help line and if they think that's a sufficient reason maybe they'd do the exchange.

So I went home, called the help line, got a guy in a minute and five minutes after that they are shipping my replacement device at absolutely no cost. No restocking fee or anything as he said it was a swap-out and the restocking fee doesn't apply. Of course, my only worry is with what the guy at the store said where they might charge me the full price if they find nothing wrong with it. However, the guy on the phone didn't make any mention of that possibility and I told him no lies... I said I updated system software and the phone has been much less stable, it crashed a few times (which is true), and I got advice from others stating they had similar issues with the new system software and that they got a replacement from Verizon. All that considered, is there any chance they might charge my account?

Anyway, I'm hoping they won't and I'm happy for the moment because I'm one step closer to getting a custom rom on my new phone. Hopefully... I still wouldn't know what to do if they actually send me a new device with ME7 on it. Maybe I shouldn't count my chickens until it arrives. I guess I'll know by the weekend if I'm a happy camper or not.

Thanks again for the advice.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlbertoWayfarer:
If you are rooted you can backup with TitaniumBackup (backup all system and user apps), then if you want a really clean phone you can copy everything from your sdcard (internal storage) to your pc. Download Google's factory image for mako (4.3 version) and restore to factory with fastboot.

If you copied everything from your sdcard, you can use the flash-all file in the .tar, if not you should flash everything manually.

[HTC Sensation] shadowx360:
Hi, on my HTC Sensation (S-OFF, CM 10.2, CWM Recovery), I am having issues related to battery and charging. My phone shows that the battery is 100% charged, I can take it out and measure the voltage as well as use the *#*#4636#*#* to see that voltage is at 4.215 V, very high. However, I can't get the phone to go past the HTC logo screen. It just dies right there. If I boot into bootloader using Volume Down + Power, the says something like "Battery too low".

The only way I can get it to boot is to plug it in when I see the HTC boot logo. Even then, it still restarts on its own, and gets stuck at boot. If I unplug it while charging and on, it instantly dies.

Any ideas on causes? I don't mind getting a new battery as long as that's the issue. I just hope it's not something like the voltage regulator or anything.

I'm likely upgrading soon to the new one, but I want to easily transfer all my stuff to the new one. I have over 500 apps, I use this thing every day, so I need a way to transfer Everything easily. Titanium Backup won't really work because I have used almost all the space on the device; and to make a full backup I'd have to use less than half the space. Unless you have an alternative solution.

Why would he/she have 300 notifications???

SwiftKey'ed from my '13 Nexus 7 FHD using XDA Premium HD
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] xbt-:
Exactly. In fact I have no notifications, except the ones I want, which are almost never. I use apps like Startup Auditor and Autorun Manager to prevent apps from running in the background and giving unwanted notifications.

I use apps like Ad Detector and Default App Manager to make sure none of my apps have pesky popup or notification ads, and easily remove them if they do.

I force close or disable apps I don't want running, like gmail and occasionally maildroid, gallery, and others.

The only somewhat annoying thing with having over 500 apps is that the Play store frequently tells me about all these updates that are ready. But I just turn off automatic updates for all apps and once a month or so I'll go in and manually update the apps I want to.

By the way, I went camping recently for 5 days and was very surprised and happy that I was still at 40% battery life by the end of the camping trip.

Sadly, however, during the camping trip I got a tiny scratch on the screen, because like a moron I procrastinated getting a screen protector :(

Hi there

I am facing a strange problem. I am decompiling resources.arsc using APK Multitool (from official site) with no problems. I then change a few colors in res\values\colors.xml. Then I recompile and delete the resources.arsc from the keep folder as instructed. The apk colpiles ok but to my surprise there is no change in the colors. I decompile it again only to find that the changes i made have been reverted.

Amusingly enough I tried APK Multitool Stable Release from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2341351 And it recompiles fine and even the resources.arsc is changes (via time stamp and size) but the framework-res when pushed through adb causes bootloop.

I am stuck at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't have S-OFF either as I have the latest T-Mobile update, but this is working and the thread claims that OTA can be downloaded and flashed with the stock boot (which is included) and stock recovery (which is linked to in the thread) with the odexed version.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2224752&highlight=stock

On the site it links to for downloads the download is mislabeled. You want the one that says Stock Jelly Bean 4.1.2 (the odexed one). It says 4.1.2 but it's really 4.2.2. Specifically quoted there it says: With odexed version you can download and flash OTA from HTC (you need stock boot.img and recovery.img as well)

It installs the boot.img with the flash automatically, and you'll also need to download the recovery.img and flash that with fastboot after it's all installed. (you flash the rom itself with TWRP)

I've seen that. Didn't know we could get ota with it. So after you installed it you got ota. To the updated 2.24? That would be cool.

I didn't get OTA yet, although I think the only difference between 2.17 and 2.24 is lockscreen widgets, and there's no guarantee that t-mobile's 4.2.2 will be based on 2.24 anyway. This is the best available stock rom with no modifications, so that's why I've installed it.
