[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jim40216:
I downloaded an older spiraling galaxy to my phone and love it....but its no longer on the market. Im trying to find the apk to export it to my Nexus 7. both are rooted and custom roms and have root explorer. I cannot locate the apk for the live wallpaper anywhere on the phone yet it runs perfectly so I know its there somewhere. found folders that even say" live wallpaper.apk and live wallpaper picker.apk but no galaxy.apk. done searches and much reading to no avail. any help would be appreciated. -Jim
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] issak42:
If you downloaded it from the market, it's not in /system/app but /data/app, you don't need root for that.

apk file should be there.

So for a little while now I've noticed Google now is no longer doing the things it use to:

1. It use to notify me how many minutes home is from my current location. It no longer does.

2. It use to notify me how many minutes an appointment was and when I should leave to be on time. It no longer does

3. Listen to/play <song title> use to play music on my device or YouTube. This no longer works.

Anybody know why these stopped working?

I'm on stock (Rogers ) ROM with all apps up to date.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MechanicalMecca:
Just an idea, maybe you did this but if not its worth a try. Go into settings/application manager/google and hit force stop. Now clear cache, data, and defaults. Now hit uninstall updates, and when done re-install the updates and run app. This should give you a fresh start I believe and this could allow you to set all your options over and give you the origional operation you had before. Im not a pro so I cant guarentee this but it cant hurt, its not a dangerous operation anyway. Good luck! :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Jamolah:
Thanks mechanical. I'll try it

Tried it still not working.

Is there any way to turn off or disable all WiFi network notifications? I'm constantly clearing things about available open networks, and also when I connect to WiFi.

The only option I found is in the WiFi settings as "Notify Me - Tell me if Wi-Fi is available when I open an app", which I've turned off.

I would also love to hear a solution to this. It's super annoying.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bos1:
Did you ever find a solution to this? It's driving me crazy on the Verizon model.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surfacinglove:
Nope. Still can't find a solution.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whittikins:
What's wrong with that solution? I go into wifi, menu, advanced, and unchecked wifi notifications. Am I missing something?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] surfacinglove:
I don't see any notifications setting in WiFi advanced menu, just the one in the main WiFi settings about if an app is open. Screenshot?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bos1:
Which version do you have? On the Verizon version unchecking wifi notifications in settings doesn't get rid of the notification. It only gets rid of an extra irritating popup every time you open an app.

The only way I've found to get rid of the notification is to leave wifi turned off. Not sure if that's what Verizon intended to encourage me to do, but since I'm on unlimited data I'm guessing probably not. I won't feel too bad about staying off of wifi and eating up their data until they fix it though. There's no excuse for cluttering up the notification area with constant notifications about nothing, with no way to disable them.

edit - Oh I see. You have AT&T and they're more sensible about it than Verizon.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brownel02:
So, no answer to this on the Verizon phone?? I am hoping a custom ROM will fix this annoying issue. Yes, Verizon, I know I am connected to my wireless network. That thing drives me crazy!! As noted above I have also been leaving my wifi off and just using my Unlimited data. Max to date is 23 Gig in a month!! Eat it VZW!!

what about moding we have root here change software .. come oon guys .. is it so hard ? this is xda with so many options .. get custom rom then jeezz or just root and check build.prop editor
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Steamer86:
No one's offered an alternative through modding as far as I've seen. How about this, if it's not that hard, YOU fix it and hand over the mod. Not everyone wants a custom ROM with how well stock runs. They never work 100%. So give up IR (ect) for no Wi-Fi notification bug? No thank you. If it was easy as build.prop, would be done. Stop talking out of your ass batterystats.bin guy.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GalaxySIIII:
mmaan chill ouut .. just saying .. how else u wanna do it if not custom rom or just root and install relevant apps for it .. ar u sure there is nothing out there?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bos1:
After being annoyed for months I finally got serious about finding a solution. It's actually really easy.

1) Be rooted

2) Install Notifications Off from Play Store (free)

3) Open Notifications Off, scroll down to LGSystemServer, and uncheck it

4) Save

VS980 wifi notifications gone!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brownel02:
Does that kill any other notifications or just the WIFI BS message? Thanks for the find.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martindar:
settings,press wifi,hit menu button in nav bar,press advanced wifi and then you can switch off wifi notifications

i see that its already been discussed,sorted
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bos1:
It only got rid of the wifi notifications. I suppose it would also suppress any other notifications that are generated by LGSystemServer, but the wifi ones are the only ones I ever saw coming from LGSystemServer.

Unfortunately, this method no longer worked for me after updating to kitkat. In the app settings for LGSystemServer you can see that the Notifications Off app is successfully unchecking the Show Notifications checkbox, but LGSystemServer ignores the notification setting and generates the wifi notifications anyway. Very annoying, LG and Verizon.

I ended up switching to this ROM, which works great and disables the wifi notifications by default:

[Sony Xperia ZL] Crash338:
Here is the FTF for the C6506. Flashed it on my own ZL so I'm sure it works.

Part 1: http://d-h.st/CQG

Part 2: http://d-h.st/0J7

Enjoy!

:cool:
[Sony Xperia ZL] s0x247:
Thanks
[Sony Xperia ZL] scooter421:
Crash338,

I just want to be clear on the steps for rooting with the files you provided:

open FlashTool and flash the part 1 file

now once flashing is done reboot device and connect to PC in usb debuggin mode

CLOSE FLASHTOOL <<< VVVIMP STEP

extract the file DooMLoRD_Easy-Rooting-Toolkit_v18_perf-event-exploit.zip to root directory on c:\

execute runme_ file corresponding to your OS on desktop PC, this will execute a SPECIAL version of easy rooting toolkit <<< VVVIMP STEP

after rooting is over the device will restart

you can verify if device is rooted by checking for SuperSU app (it is the newest version)

once thats done now power down device and open FlashTool again

now flash part 2 file

thats it after flashing is done just disconnect and power on device and enjoy rooted phone!
[Sony Xperia ZL] spamam1:
!!! Please don't flash part1 on its own !!!

(Probably can't, anyways, but don't try =p)

We flash .ftf files. The OP could not post the file directly, due to size limitations on the fileserver. Please download the 2 parts, then *decompress* using, for example, 7-Zip (www.7zip.org)

You will get 1 large .ftf file.

Then flash via flashtool, etc.

Cheers

Edit: typos
[Sony Xperia ZL] scooter421:
Thank you for clearing that up. Next question is what is the second file I flash? According to doomlord's "how to" you have to flash a second file

Edit: my problem was I was using wrong flashtool. I went to sony website and dl their flashtool which kept asking me to ul bl. Now I have a new question as I figured this out but still didn't get root. Did you flash the whole file or did you just check the kernal box during flashing. I checked the kernal only box and got no root. Was afraid of losing data
[Sony Xperia ZL] spamam1:
Hello,

The instructions from the thread below should be pretty self-explanatory.

link here

The idea: old kernel has exploit, but newer ones closed the exploit.

Fortunately, even on locked bootloader, can re-flash older kernel only.. get root.. then re-flash new kernel, and keep the root.

To be clear:

- flash full new ROM (which includes new, no exploit kernel)

- flash old kernel only

- get root

- re-flash new kernel only

(Note: my terminology may be off; the gist shoukd be ok)

Edit: typos, clarification
[Sony Xperia ZL] scooter421:
Thank you, I think I may have done it backwards and flashed all BUT the kernal. DOH!

I'm assuming you are trying to root your phone so just unselect everything apart from the kernel when flashing.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] stunts513:
First and foremost I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY HARD BRICKS,etc ,etc(Really hard to hard brick a kindle doing this unless you flash a weird rom package)

Now that thats cleared up, I have been seeing too many recovery bootloop bricks lately because I think the main tutorials people use haven't been updated(to mention you need to put a rom on the kindle beforehand now), so I thought why not write a tutorial that explains how to fix this problem since there are so many posts, that way we can just put a link to the tutorial in the peoples threads. So here we go!

Things you need to do this:

a micro-usb cable

patience

minimal command prompt experience

Instructions:

Boot your kindle into twrp (it should do this on its own at this point)

Make sure you have the adb drivers installed(they will need to be installed again if you flashed an older version of twrp), if not, update your drivers in the device manager with the ones in my signature.(See below if you don't know how to update your drivers)

Download the attached file and extract it somewhere

Put the rom and gapps in the folder you extracted the files to

Open a command prompt with admin privileges(start>all programs>accessories right click command prompt, hit run as admin)

CD into the directory where the extracted files are

Type this into the command prompt: adb push rom-or-gapps-name-goes-here.zip /sdcard/

As I said in the filename put either the rom or the gapps, but send both in two commands

At this point once the transfer is done unplug your kindle

If you are going from amazon to a cm based rom, at this point you should wipe system, cache, dalvik cache, and do a factory reset. If not just goto step 11.

Hit install, browse to the /sdcard folder and choose the rom and gapps files and flash them

Reboot and profit!

For people with driver issues that don't know how to install my driver:

Open the device manager

Find the device with a triangle next to it

Right click it and hit update driver

Choose the option that lets you search a folder for drivers by browsing

Choose the folder you extracted my drivers to

Let it search and install the drivers

Profit!

Note: If adb isn't picking up the kindle in recovery, try uninstalling the current kindle devices it detects first and then updating the drivers

[7" Kindle Fire HD General] nicolaCapitano:
rom and gapps

sry for my ignorance, but what do you mean with "rom and gapps"?

i explain what i've done:

i did everything in the guide to install twrp and 2nd bootloader.

i can acces in the twrp, but if i enter the reboot menu, if i push the botton "System", i had the boot loop problem (Kindle logo became orange and then blue forever)

Now the question is: where i find the rom and the gapps you're talking about?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] stunts513:
You choose a ROM from the android development section for your model kindle, usually it tells what version of gapps(google apps) you need to flash with it. If it doesn't tell what gapps you need its pretty easy to tell, goo.im has the gapps posted for all versions of android, and have a chart telling which version goes with what os.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] c_hader:
*cannot read

When I go to push the file to the kindle I get a message in the command prompt saying *cannot stat 'rom.zip': no such file or directory.

I have the zip in the same folder as the adb file

Any suggestions?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] stunts513:
Check the ROM name to make sure its not a typo? It should work. Make sure you didn't rename the ROM and add .zip because windows by default doesn't show extensions, so the filename might actually be ROM.zip.zip now if you did that.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] typographie:
Sigh, I was hoping my first post on XDA wouldn't be a help request, but here I am..

I agonized for hours over the directions in this tutorial, checked all the right boxes, but I ended up in the bootloop as described in the OP. I can get to TWRP fine, but nothing else. My ADB drivers along with the Android SDK package were installed and previously working fine. Now, of course, the device no longer has a driver in Windows. I followed the instructions here, carefully selecting the extracted folder containing the ADB files, and Device Manager tells me—

I tried a number of times to reboot both systems, uninstall the Kindle, try to pick it up again, etc., to no avail. :eek:

My device is a Kindle Fire HD 7" originally version 7.4.6. I made backups before I started as per the directions in the linked thread and I have my desired ROM and Gapp .zips all ready to go, I just can't get anything to the device. I'd prefer to avoid needing to get a factory cable, if possible.

Thanks for any help!

Edit: I've managed to get my .zip files to the /sdcard/ directory. For anyone stuck on the same problem I was, the instructions in this thread got my ADB drivers up and running again. The rest of the steps here worked fine at that point.

Extract the file in the first post to somewhere on your C drive. (I put it in the C drive directly so it was just c:\adb\.)

Check this: ht tp://coweb.cc.gatec h.edu/ice-gt/339 - remove the spaces.

That should help.

Do

cd..

until you have just c:/. Then type cd:/adb and it should put you in the right place. Then you can do adb push.
