You are correct, you do need to be rooted, and that's it. No need for a second bootloader and TWRP. However, if you aim to have wallpapers enabled, you will need to use this fix here to enable wallpapers. Amazon, just to spite us, added this string to the bools.xml file in the Kindle's framework-res.apk:

<bool name="disable_system_wallpapers">true</bool>

...so you'll need to run the script to set the value to "false" and re-enable wallpapers.

Good luck!

Thank you for the response. I'm not sure how to run this script? Also what is the advantages of boot loader and TWRP? After running the script above, will the KF automatically boot on with the wall paper?
[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ph0enix_216:
To run the script, simply download it, extract it to somewhere where you can find it, and double-click the Runme.bat file, and the script will run itself. After one or two reboots, you should have wallpapers back. If you need help, read the thread I linked to in the KFHD 7" Q&A section.

A second bootloader and TWRP are nice to have because they let you backup & restore Android partitions on the go; as well as install tweaks, mods, themes, and ROMs in the form of flash-able .zip files. If you want to give it a try, use this thread here. I've used it twice now, and it's been successful both times.

If you put 2nd boot loader and twrp on and you are on a newer version of amazon os then you will boot loop into recovery unless u flash the included freedom boot in kinology, and I believe that only works with 7.4.6 and I heard 7.4.7 ota is out so you would need to disable ota's. This is assuming you are on a 7" device otherwise don't use kinology's freedom boot.

However, with any charger/cable, it gives me the "slow charging" notification. I'm not too concerned about this as with "slow charging", Wifi, BT and streaming a 50min video, I loose about 4% of battery which is acceptable to me.

How about your powernoend? Did ya check if it charges well?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sketchy_Whiskers:
Good Evening XDA,

I recently converted back to Android after being with an iPhone for about 6 months. I purchased a Note 3 and seem to have issues with metadata not streaming over to my car deck (JVC KW-AV60BT). The Samsung stock music player streams it but no other player does as well Slacker Radio does not seem to stream anything either other than the audio. The iPhone worked fine with everything so I know its not the deck.

I am curious if anyone has had similar problems and if they figured out a fix or am I just missing a setting. The phone is all up to date as well.

Any help is appreciated.

Verizon Note II, yeah, the right place.

Known as a Global GSM phone, it should work with T-Mobile SIM card without any setting, right? At least for Voice.

However, when I inserted the SIM and turn it on, the phone shows "No SIM Card", exactly same as when it has no SIM card inside.

I suspect 1) the SIM card slot broken? or 2) BAD ESN?

Please advise! Thanks!!

I personally prefer the functionality of the Sense camera (which I use a good amount) and a few other more minor things on Sense. But as mentioned, AOSP just feels smoother and snappier. Both have their merits (again, as timmaaa mentioned), and its just a matter of personal preference and taste.

Same here, since Venom 4 landed,Ii stayed on it.Now, I started using Beanstalk w/ Torched kernel and I must say i'm pretty impress with the result.

I used to love Sense.

I first tried out, and didn't like, either Cyanogenmod or MIUI. Then I loved ViperXL (Sense based).

After that I found Illusion ROM and haven't gone back to a Sense ROM since.

Other than Sense camera, I don't really miss anything from Sense.

I've noticed that AOSP ROMs "feel snappier" and my phone has stopped overheating since I flashed Illusion. My phone used to constantly overheat while on any Sense based ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Wonton Soup:
Viper is the the only reason I go to sense. But I am strictly aosp because the Roms are way more customizable and and I had a gnex before I got this phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Black!Jack:
I personally have always preferred sense Roms. I really like the camera, as already mentioned above. However, I am leaning on trying some AOSP. Haven't run AOSP since Gingerbeast on my retired Inspire 4G. If any of the AOSP Roms for this device are half as good as that Rom I will definitely be swayed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Madcat8686:
This is a tough one. I ran with CM 10.2 for a few weeks and liked it quite a bit once I resolved the issues. I kept looking at the CleanRom page over and over ("It's a Sense Rom, are you crazy, you left that to move on to AOSP???" I kept telling myself.)

Well....I made the jump and I love Sense 5 JB 4.2.2. Now I look longingly at the Beanstalk page every other day (what is wrong with me??)

Most of my best Nandroids are AOSP. But I tell you I love Sense and have spent more time driving a Sense Rom than anything else.

One thing I can say is for me is to use Sense I require Xposed framework for Sense toolbox, Greenify, and Advanced power menu. And the fact that I'm a sucker for transparency on the launcher dock. I feel the solid launcher dock looks dated (thanks AOSP.) Cosmetic pickiness!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] fezzawinkle:
For me, AOSP is not an option until they fix the Exchange client. It trashes the battery and sometimes data. Downloaded over 3 Gigs of data when I was asleep one night. I am looking forward to trying ExchangeServices 6.0 in KitKat to see if the problems have been fixed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SOpsMattW:

The biggest difference I've seen with them is the business integration. For non-business users, it doesn't matter. But Sense's email client integrates with Exchange much better. Contact lookups, thread viewing, etc.. Other than that, it's a personal preference.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] NexusS4gFreak:
Im using a stock sense 5 rom with all the latest official goodies including full 2.15 firmware, radios, etc. I love it personally but i wanna try out aosp again, first time on this phone. Is there an aosp rom i can freely switch back and forth between sense nandroid and aosp nandroid without problems caused by the 2.15? if u can understand my question please let me know.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Madcat8686:
Well, I am currently on CleanRom 7 with S-Off and 2.15 and it is rock solid after two weeks now but I have several Nandroids built with AOSP Roms. The one that worked best was Beanstalk with the Boosted kernel. I had recurring issues with CM 10.2 (I think it needs a little longer to bake and it will be better.) 2.15 HBoot didn't seem to make much difference when I tried out several 4.3 Roms but if you are S-Off you can always flash back to a previous HBoot.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Flashing the hboot doesn't do the job correctly, all it does is change the hboot, it doesn't give you any of the other firmware components that are required. The correct way to do it is to run the 3.18 RUU which gives you the 2.14 as well as other firmware components (for aosp ROMs), or flash the 2.15 firmware package which gives you the 2.15 hboot as well as other more critical firmware components (for Sense 5 ROMs).

The common misconception that all that's required is the hboot is being fueled by posts like this.

Okayy so timmaaa can u answer my question? And i was 3.18 (2.14) and flashed the hboot and radio update for 2.15.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Madcat8686:
You are absolutely right. I did run the appropriate RUU package not just an HBoot flash. Thanks for pointing that out. I can see how the verbage I used can lead to some poor decisions.

Im only asking can i freely switch between aosp and stock nandroids without issue

Some aosp ROMs are 2.15 compatible, some are not. The best way to find out is to check in the ROM thread of the ROM you want to flash.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
As long as the AOSP ROM is compatible with hboot 2.15, there should be no issue switching back and forth from AOSP and Sense nandroids.

The more recently updated AOSP ROMs tend to be 2.15 compatible, but to be sure you should check the thread from the particular ROM(s) you are considering (as timmaaa suggested).
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Black!Jack:
One option (correct me if I'm wrong guys) would be to run the 3.18 RUU, and instead of installing the new Firmware package, just install the Beastmode Kernel along side your custom Sense 5 rom of choice. Do your Sense Nandroid from there. Then, you should be able to "Bounce" back and forth with no issues. But, as timmaaaaa and Redpoint both pointed out, it is still wise to check the individual rom threads to ensure compatibility. I personally have not done the firmware upgrade because I prefer AOSP. But running the Beastmode kernel with Sense 5 resolved any signal drops I had.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Heisenberg:
Yeah that's definitely one way you could do it. Some people have had issues installing Beastmode though (phones with slow SoC's I believe), so for them it might be troublesome.

I have just bought an XDA Mini in German and it has a german langguage software (of course). Since its a new device for me, I dont really have much experience in XDA. I ever heard something like flash and ROM but not really am sure what it actually is.

My question is:

1. Is it possible to convert or to upgrade the software and change it into an english version?

2. If it is possible, what should I do to get this english version? Cause I dont really like using it in German.

3. What are the consequences if I change my software into an english version?

you should be able to do a factory reset, that should solve your problem but you will lose all data and apps that you had installed In order to save your contacts, messages etc, its best to make backup first, you can download My Phone explorer to your PC and client to phone from google play store to backup everything before factory reset or flashing stock ROM

Factory reset is normally done by going into settings> privacy > factory reset. or it may be located in an another location in settings.

or you can follow this and flash a stock kernel to solve your problem

I always go 1 up from the bottom on min to 384

I set my max to 1512 usually, just because I don't want to redline my rpm's (car reference)

on liquid smooth, I had set my governor to Userspace to get rid of my wake problem.

my scheduler, I left it alone. I haven't noticed it do anything for me.

I am not hardcore user. I barely game or call. mostly text and my music along with XDA and Facebook. I will get all day with about 40% battery left. cause I charge every night, that's all I am worried about getting.

[Galaxy S 4 Active General] wolverine2k:
Dear All,

It looks like the AT&T version of Galaxy S4 Active (i537) is NOT attracting any hackers/developers for unlocking the bootloader even though there is a bounty already in progress. This device is such a nice locked down piece of HW which does not allow us to exploit the full potential of the device.

EDIT: Thanks my-blue-snog-box. I have removed that reference. Lets start collecting what we can in this thread.

I also have been a regular follower of the GS3 Verizon bootloader hack and I guess it is about time, we start something similar for the AT&T GS4A bootloader hack.

Lets start discussions, put down what we know, throw around ideas and knowledge and get help from people who already have been involved with unlocking bootloaders in an attempt to get this beast free.

I am not doing this for the bounty or anything. I just want my bootloader unlocked and start using its full potential. I request the admins to please keep this thread alive. I also request everybody else to thrown in whatever the hell they have information on. In the meantime, I will start by collecting what I have and put it up here for analysis.

I would also suggest interested people to look at how the Verizon GS3 bootloader discussions went and how some of the ideas were applied (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1769411). We have to start thinking out of the box here.

One thing confirmed is that Samsung is NOT changing the boot mechanisms, etc. while going from one device to another. So we might be able to tweak minor differences to get to our goal.

Please do read everything about rooting and how to recover your i537 from soft bricking. Also make sure you have the 1-click odin installer (with MF1) ready just in case.

Last and not the least, avoid any updates on your GS4A if you really want to see some action and provide help in this area.
