Hmmm, how am I going to make custom ROM without boot.img if it is needed(or is it?).

I can't get any other custom kernel because I want to make ROM for locked bootloader phone.

Do you know what should I do to complete ROM if i can't have stock boot.img?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sahaab:
For roms built on stock Rom, u shouldnt have any kernel inside the flashable zip

Sent from my LT18i
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_B_E_D:
Yeah, that's what I though after someguyfromhell wrote a post and I made a new zip without boot.img and deleted write_raw_image line from update-script.

Right now I am searching for solution to other problem(some folders and files are not showing up on my sdcard while viewing it in Windows, so I have no space to drop ROM in there, will try when I fix this).

Thank you both for replies, will try to fix this soon.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
If you are going to do a ROM for locked bootloaders, then there is no boot.img needed at all. Locked bootloader means stock kernel, means no boot.img.

Also, it is not needed. Some ROM developers supply their own kernels together with the ROM, however it is not a requirement.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] HansPsy:
HELLO XDA FELLOWS

My Nexus 7 gets warmer when I launch the camera and take a series of photos .

I checked the CPU temperature and found it would get close to 60 celsius degrees.

Is it OK ? or devices in your hands are similar?

Once I read a news that reported it would get overheated when taking photos in darkness cuz the CPU had to provide higher voltages to maintain the camera brightness.

How is your Nexus 7??

Thank U!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Asus_USA:
How many photos do you take before it begins to get hot? Under usage, it's quite normal for the tablet to get a little warm. However, it really shouldn't be getting hot to the touch. It would really depend how many photos are in your "series" of photos, though. If anything, give it a cold-boot and close out any other processes that might be running in the background.
[Windows 8 General] FrostyWolf:
I have found this guide:

http://furycomputing.wordpress.com/...-it-easier-to-see-contents-of-an-application/

About resizing the live preview windows, but I was wondering, is it possible to do more with these? Besides resizing, I would like to be able to move them around the screen, mark them as "always on top", keep them open even if they are not being moused over, etc. I find them insanely useful. I have a secondary monitor (a TV) in another room, and they do wonder for me being able to change things on it with the keyboard and what not. The same thing goes if I have something minimized, I can use it to check the status of it.

Another possible solution would be a oversized taskbar that just used the live previews for icons, that would be amazing as well.

Any tweaks/hacks like this? Anyway to play with them?
[HTC Sensation] yhuty:
Hey guys, I just saw a post containing the official ICS update for HTC Sensation (pyramid) online and before I download it (about 200mb), I just wanna know how to install it on my phone after downloading the file. thanks

I'm using a Sensation XE by the way.
[HTC Sensation] astar26:
To flash firmware manually you have to be S-OFF. And I highly recommend getting SuperCID. It maked things a lot easier.

If you don't want to S-OFF, use an RUU to flash the firmware, it's a lot safer.

As for the firmware itself - It usually comes inside a PG58IMG.zip file, which you put on the root of your SDcard. Then you boot to your bootloader (press and hold vol-down + power key until it boots). It will find the file and ask you to flash it.

Remember to check md5sum, as if the file is corrupt you will be left with an expensive paperweight.

My device is already on S-OFF. Please give me a step-by-step guide on what to do. Thanks in advance

It doesn't even look or feel like a case is on to be honest. I used to always take by bionic case off at home because it was to bulky not this one it's just perfect and at 10 bucks it's a steal.

I have had diztronic cases on my last 4 phones and now my maxx and I love them. They fit so tight that no dirt gets under the case. I never liked cases on my phones in the past but these ones seem like part of the phone.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jughead75:
I also ordered the Otterbox through Verizon. Got it a couple days ago. Surprisingly it did not add much bulk to the phone. Only complaint, I'd like the back to be less smooth and a little more textured. Other than that its a great case.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raichur0xx0rz:
Otterbox would be for if you want more protection on the phone.

If you want to go minimal, get the Diztronic TPU case like bigv5150 mentioned.

The Otterbox Defender will give you an integrated screen protector. I'm just using the overpriced ones from Verizon, which I'm not a huge fan of, but I did also order some cheapy "Supershields" screen protectors from Amazon. I haven't used one yet, but I am not expecting much from $2 protectors. They come in a 6-pack, however, so even if they are crap, at least I can switch it out whenever one of them gets scratched up.

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlmesq:
I really liked the Diztronic case for my Bionic, but I think the new bumper is the way to go with the Maxx. It apparently isn't available for the Ultra or Mini, at least for now.

Shown in red below to make it more visible, but mine is dark gray. I like the way the carbon/Kevlar back shows through.

[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jfriend33:
The new defenders are a lot better than what my galaxy nexus had. The reinforcement on the belt clip is different, less fragile in appearance. Same for the snaps around the case. Easy to remove too. And the rubber doesn't pull off either without opening a port! Needs colors though.

A google search revealed Trident cases specifically for maxx. Not listed on company website but available for purchase from online retailer.

[HTC Desire X] ShadowCodeGaming:
So I've been trying to get viper4android to work with my Desire X, only to find out it'll work with every player BUT the stock one. I also notice the Music Effects option is missing in the settings (I'm running mySENSEdx+ if that matters). Does anyone know a fix for both problems?
[HTC Desire X] RishiChhikkara:
1.Open up /system/build.prop in text editor.

2.Change the line Ipa.decode=true to lpa.decode=false

& there won't be any music effects options in Settings, All you'll need to do is open up Viper app & Make changes there...
[HTC Desire X] ShadowCodeGaming:
There's no such 'lpa.decode' line in the build.prop :confused:
[HTC Desire X] RishiChhikkara:
ofcourse there is,,just scroll to bottom of build.prop & you'll found it, or else you can use 'find' , I was facing same provlem, but after editing build.prop it was solved..
[HTC Desire X] ReSkid:
lpa decode is the issue there, It needs to be set to false in all HTC devices, Atleast the ones with Beats Audio. If it is not there in the build.prop, Add that line and restart the phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dcunited08:
I went to bed last night and the phone worked fine, CM 10.1 nightly. Overnight it must have crashed and I woke up to find it off. I started it up and it asked for a password for encrypted storage (I don't have encrypted storage). I rebooted it again and found it stuck on the GS2 screen and left it for 10 min or so. I tried rebooting again and same action.

I then put it in download mode and it is on the screen but I am not able to see the device on my computer. Ubuntu 13.04.

fastboot devices shows nothing.

Ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
Do you have SGH-I777? There is no fastboot on this phone. You would have to use download mode with Odin on a windows machine, or with Heimdall on Linux. You would have to have the correct USB driver installed, but I don't know Linux or what you need there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dcunited08:
After Ging around I found the Heimdall for my Mac and have been trying without luck to get a kernal to install. I am running this command:

sudo ./heimdall flash --kernel zImage --no-reboot --verbose

This error:

ERROR: libusb error -7 whilst receiving packet. Retrying...

Ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
It's a little out of my experience, since I don't use Mac, and have used Heimdall only with windows. Some have reported having issues getting Heimdall to work with some versions of Mac OS, but I couldn't tell you the specifics. You might have to search out the answers.

Or, maybe it would be easier to borrow a windows machine and use Odin which definitely has less issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dcunited08:
I am using your one-click stock+root on a Win7 machine, I will let you know how it goes. It appears to be taking awhile on factoryfs.img (10 min or so).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Try to use one of the USB ports in the back of your machine. I had to restore using creepy's file a few months ago and had trouble at first, was taking way too long for Odin to recognize.

Just like your problem.

Once I moved to the rear port the Odin process worked perfectly, so maybe it will for you.

One other thing - make sure you have an i777 before using the files; Creepy asked you but I don't see where you've replied to that.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] dcunited08:
I have tried two different ones in three different usb ports on two different computers.

I tried running as administrator, compatibility mode, leaving it for hours. It is definitely seeing the phone and attempting to push it but failing without giving an error message.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Then it sounds like you need to try another file, for whatever reason creepy's isn't working for you.

Try Entropy's UCKH7 PDA/tar files in the stickies in the development thread. If that doesn't work I don't know what will.

I tried using different roms / 4.0.4 / 4.1.2 / and even tried CM10.1 RC version and still doesn't work on other carrier (which he was using before)

so far I've tried

- I9100XWLSW_I9100XXMS2_I9100XEULS5_HOME.tar

I've download Google calendar app from Play and its widgets do the same. My Desire S running Sense 4.1 custom rom on 4.0.4 calendar widget and Legend didn't do this... Any ideas ? Seems odd you can resize but the widget doesn't use the additional space.

using ADB, not fastboot ;)

adb push C:\Users\User\Downloads\rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip

(replace the C:\Users\User\Downloads with where the zip is and rom.zip to the actual zip name)

you should be able access adb through recovery, maybe in bootloader/fastboot mode too but I'm not too sure
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluetint:
Can you boot into recovery? If so you should be able to push a rom zip file over adb with this command: adb push name_of_rom_file.zip /sdcard/
