[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] Norcalz71:
This appears to be a different issue as clearing data/cache has no affect, and it mostly refers to the a-gps locking location. It is equally slow with gps, but I never turn gps on and in the previous versions of maps and on previous phones, a gps worked very fast to lock a rough location. It still does with other location based programs, but the new maps is the issue I am 99% sure

How can I flash my coby kyros mid1125? It's got a weird screen display and is permanent. It covers three quarters of the screen when its switched on. I have tried quick img program but it keeps asking for fast boot mode. I have tried holding the volume up and down buttons but it doesnt work. also have several times done reset. I have also tried FWDN program but it gives an error. I have the .img file. Can someone point me in the right direction please. Tell me what to do and provide download links for working .img file flashing uploaders etc.

Thank you.

When I tried to turn the device on, it only displays the version information before rebooting itself again and again ... and again. I finally put it in the cradle and it booted all the way up to the setup screen and was running properly (sans all the data and the applications I've installed, of course). The backup battery was down to 20% at the time.

Now, the battery screen shows Main battery at 0%, AC Only, and the backup battery at 100%. It doesn't show any charging activity to the main battery.

The battery on it right now was fully charged through the aux battery charger, and the backup battery is also fully charged. I've tried another fully charged battery with no luck.

I slapped in a freshly charged battery last night before going to bed. Everything was working just fine then. The phone was sitting inside a leather case all night and never moved.

Thanks for any help.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] qgyu:
I updated the ROM to 1.40.00 and Radio to 1.13.00. But since EXT ROM update takes too many reboots and after each reboot, the directory would be hidden again, so it's still at 1.33.110 for Cingular.

[Moto X Q&A] corywf:
lol yeah that's what I was hoping too. I'd like to get rid of the pin lock.
[Moto X Q&A] amoamare:
You have to deodex the apk. I had to re-install windows and don't really feel like doing anything right now.

Make sure adb is working test using adb devices. If you see a device your good. Also make sure you have Java installed.

Create new dir in your C:\ name it what ever in this case MotoX

Create two more dir's inside the MotoX dir

Framework

Apps

So you should have;

C:\MotoX

C:\MotoX\Framework

C:\MotoX\Apps

run these two commands using adb.

adb pull /system/framework C:\MotoX\Framework
adb pull /system/apps C:\MotoX\Apps

Download these two files attached.

baksmali.jar

smali.jar

Place them in C:\MotoX so like

C:\MotoX\baksmali.jar

C:\MotoX\smali.jar

In cmd prompt run these commands.

cd C:\MotoX
baksmali.jar -a 15 -x C:\MotoX\Apps\filename.odex -d C:\MotoX\Framework

This will create a folder called "out" so you will see this

C:\MotoX\out

THIS OUTPUT IS SMALI, YOU CAN MAKE CHANGES BEFORE COMPILING TO DEX.

To make this into a dex you run this in cmd

cd C:\MotoX
smali.jar out -o classes.dex

Copy C:\MotoX\Apps\filename.apk to C:\MotoX

Open filename.apk with 7-Zip, drag and drop classes.dex into the main dir of the 7zip apk.

You have a deodex apk.

[MENTION=2548163]corywf[/MENTION] - Will this post help you create the hacked .apk?
[Moto X Q&A] amoamare:
Also I didn't really spell check any of this so make sure you manually type it out and that your dir references are correct.
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
so I have accomplished all of this. I am currently working on the email.apk. there is also the exchange2.apk that i believe will need to be edited as well.

When I edited the email apk a couple of years ago I just went to these lines and returned true and false. These lines check to see if the policies are enabled I believe.

.method public isActive(Lcom/android/emailcommon/provider/Policy;)Z
.registers 1
.parameter "policy"

.prologue
const/4 v0, 0x1

return v0
.end method

.method public isActiveAdmin()Z
.registers 1

.prologue
const/4 v0, 0x0

return v0
.end method

I then tried to recompile it and i got an error stating that two registers were required for one of the two changes. I haven't looked at which line yet because I know I don't know enough to figure out why it needs to registers. Here is the error.

c:\MotoX>java -Xmx512M -jar smali.jar out -o classes.dex
out\com\android\email\SecurityPolicy.smali[1659,4] This method requires at least
2 registers, for the method parameters

so this is where i am and this is what im stuck on. Ill attach the entire smali file so anyone that can help can take a look at the entire code. Ill also attach the security admin smali in case that matters.

Ill also begin working on the exchange apk, but this apk didn't exist the last time i did this so I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it. Like I said, Im not good at this stuff I just really want an exchange security bypass for my Moto X.

edit: Verizon Moto X
[Moto X Q&A] icase81:
If your exchange server only checks for pin on setup, try this:

adb shell

sqlite3 /data/system/locksettings.db

update locksettings set value=0 where name='lockscreen.password_type';

.exit

exit

That will set the lock to slide.
[Moto X Q&A] paulo_cv:
There's already an email apk in xda but you must be rooted
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
Ill try that later in the week when I have more time. I don't have the accounts set-up yet. But that workaround seems like it would still cripple some of the touchless control functionality. Appreciate the help though. It will be better than nothing when I finally decide to install these stupid exchange accounts.

which apk's are you talking about? i tried two that I found on xda. The thread had 3 apk variants for 4.1 4.2 and 4,3. I tried the 4.2 and 4.3 apk's but they both crashed immediately on boot.

steps taken:

1.renamed email.apk, email.odex, exchange2.apk, exchange2.dex with ".bk" at the end instead of deleting them so i could undo what i did as easy as possible.

2. moved the new Email.apk and Exchnage2.apk from sd card to system/app

3. chmodd 755 both apk's

4. rebooted

RESULT: got constant failures notifications that exchange server had failed an email had failed. the email app would not open into anything.

link to the apk's I used: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1749921

The apk's are located in the zip files so I just pulled them from there.
[Moto X Q&A] icase81:
It should have no affect on the touchless. Essentially, if you have it set to slide lock screen anyway (the default out of the box), you set up your account, set a pin/pattern/password/whatever. Once the account is setup and synching, you can run the above commands, which merely sets the value in the DB back to slide without actually turning off 'pin' in the settings. Apparently, the app only looks at the settings, not in the DB. I had to do this because I work for a certain 3 letter company (Think Watson), and we use Lotus Notes. To use them on a phone, they have ridiculous 8 character password requirements with a 30 second timeout as well as making them device administrators despite it being MY phone. I set it up, run the above commands, and its back to just being how I like it with no password to unlock. Their software thinks I'm in compliance, and I can do my job all the more easily.
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
i see what you did there. will work on it right now. I was thinking you were changing the pin lock to just a swipe unlock but the phone would still assume it was a lock (which is why i was thinking touchless controls would still think that it was locked) but the way you explained it makes clears it up. Thanks for the quick response and easy workaround. Ill be needing to ask you for the correct code once 4.3 comes out though...
[Moto X Q&A] paulo_cv:
This is the one I use. You must remove exchange accounts before flashing and download the appropriate one for your android version

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1749921

I've been using it for a while with different devices/ROMs
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
yup yup. those are the ones i tried already. Ran the 4.2 variant and the 4.3. I ran the 4.3 because the apk's are named the same as the apk's on our 4.2.2 where as the hacked 4.2 apk's are not the same name. But neither worked anyway so it didn't really matter. They wouldn't even run. It could be because "chmod 755" didn't do the correct permissions??? I didn't go in and check to see what permissions were actually given to the apk's after i moved them from the sd card to the system/app directory and ran chmod 755.
[Moto X Q&A] paulo_cv:
If you flash them through a custom recovery the installer takes care of the permissions. I've never tried to push them manually so not sure if that works
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
that forum is long but i saw others that said they pushed them manually. I'm just on a rooted verizon so I can't flash it I don't believe. But I could be wrong. [MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION] might know this better. I just assumed i couldn't until bootstrap came out but I could be wrong and most likely am lol. I was also nervous even trying to flash it because I don't have a back up i can' revert back to. I would have to rsdlite back to the stock system which setting up all my stuff is a PITA
[Moto X Q&A] icon123:
After you guys reboot you will have to clear cache and data for email and exchange service.
[Moto X Q&A] icase81:
4.3 is the same. I've used it on AOKP and CM 10.1 and 10.2 with no ill affects.
[Moto X Q&A] thepolishguy:
You are not wrong. We don't have a custom recovery yet. We can write to system. But we can't flash zips in recovery.
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
You are referencing using the hacked apks from the other thread?

Where can I find the adb cmds to perform this? Or can it just be done by going to settings apps and clicking on the app?

I'd probably prefer adb because it pushes so many errors on the screen that I can't really click on stuff because a new error message pops up too fast.
[Moto X Q&A] corywf:
I got it to work. You need to be rooted (obviously) :)

1. Remove exchange account from your Moto X

2. Remove the pin lock

3. Use root browser, es file, or whatever to rename the 4 Email files (Email.apk, Email.odex, Exchange2.apk, Exchange2.odex) to "filename".bak

4. Copy attached files to /system/app/

5. Change permissions to rw,r,r

6. Reboot

7. Set up your email account and enjoy no password/pin code

I only tested this on my Moto X but it is working so let me know if it doesn't.
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
when i first started to try and do that es file wouldn't let me rename files or move files to system even though i had write permissions on. Couldn't figure out why which is why i used adb. but I must have messed something up when changing the permissions after i copied the files from the sd card to the system folder.

I checked the root explorer option in es file fyi. verified i had write permissions with adb. still didn't work. But maybe ill try again
[Moto X Q&A] corywf:
Disconnect your phone from your computer then use ES File. Seems like /system/ gets write protected when the phone is plugged into USB.
[Moto X Q&A] icon123:
I had no problem with my phone plugged into my laptop using es. The key here is you have to boot into "recovery mode" first for this to work.
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
i toyed with this when i was originally trying to get es to work. I think depending on how the phone was connected whether mtp or ptp changed the write protections but i could be wrong.

Update: Already set-up email accounts and one needed files to be encrypted. On my last device i could decrypt after i encrypted so i didn't care. Didn't read anything when encrypting I just needed my email this week so I did it. Realized later that the only way to decrypt your device after encryption is to reflash stock firmware. So i had to do that. Currently update=ing everything in TIBU. Hopefully will get everything to work after I get my phone back to my original set-up.

I was going to use [MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION] work around for pin lock but now knowing I can't remove encryption I think I will use the hacked apk's.

Thanks to everyone for the assistance and advice.

edit: everything working flawlessly. I realized when I clicked on root explorer in es file the first time i didn't see the options to set the system to write permissions. Saw it this time and it all worked out. Don't have to set-up encryption on the device either.
[Moto X Q&A] corywf:
I lose write permissions to system every time I connect the phone even when I'm booted into recovery. I cannot do an adb remount either. I have to disconnect, reboot into recovery then make my changes.

Also, you have to reflash stock firmware to decrypt the X? That's nuts.
[Moto X Q&A] jayboyyyy:
I don't have that issue at all. Wonder what is causing it on your phone. I plug my phone in to reboot to recovery because its faster than manually doing it on the phone.

Also, don't know if you have to flash stock firmware or you might be able to do factory reset through the bootloader but factory reset of data didn't do it for me (perhaps because after rooting the standard factory reset for android doesn't work anymore). So I think if you are rooted and encrypt the device then you have to flash stock firmware to remove the encryption.
[Moto X Q&A] corywf:
I'm not sure. Now that I figured out how to work around it I can deal with it.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostlobster:
I'm probably going to go back to stock 4.3 from CM 10.2 due to a few small annoyances that are not germane to this question. The one thing that's stopping me, however, is tethering. I'm on T-Mo, $30 pre-paid. With CM 10.2 tethering my Nexus 7 to it just plain works using the integrated tethering app. No need for PDANet, or anything like that. I don't consume that much data with my N7 like that, just for Google Maps and streaming my music in the car now and then. I've got my N7 mounted using a surprisingly good $40 CD-slot mounting bracket in my car and it makes a great GPS and audio center in my car.

So, all that being said, if I revert back to rooted stock, will the small amount of tethering I do with my N7 be transparent to T-Mo, as it appears to be with CM 10.2?

Thanks a bunch!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THEindian:
I might be wrong on this but i am pretty sure T-Mobile can't tell if you are tethering to a Nexus 7. Both show up as mobile devices on their network when they look at traffic and both show up as Androids. When you tether to a laptop, then they can tell because you use a windows version of chrome.

I have tried this twice already...

I have spent ages trying everything, like copying it to a generic titled folder, which it stays there fine, but as soon as I change the name using the ES file explorer app to .semc-fullbackup, it no longer appears..

its like its automatically deleting the 2013-08-27-183118 folder... I cant get my head around this

any help?
