Greetings!

I literally had no part of this bringup.

The razrqcom dev team, are responsible for this code. I am merely building off of their tree...

https://github.com/razrqcom-dev-team/android_local_razrqcom

I just booted this, and first impressions are good! I need to give it some more time :)

Pre-Requisites

Unlocked bootloader

Custom Recovery (TWRP, CWM (untested), OpenRecovery)

Desire to run aftermarket Android! You do realize your warranty is beyond void now, right?!

For your convenience, there is a changelog post and a buglist post below.

TAKE A BACKUP IN RECOVERY BEFORE FLASHING​

​

Then, you will likely need to change your recovery - I needed to flash the latest OpenRecovery in order to flash this. I am working to sort out what TWRP is missing... Try TWRPrecovery_SELinuxtest.img - seems successful.

I have not tested CWM! If you use TWRP or OR, you should be able to keep this version, no issues with older versions of Android so far :)

Nightlies!

For Gapps, try PA's

Enjoy!

cmda or gsm version ? if it is gsm, i could test it here
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Ah, I forgot to build GSM... Give me a few.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] niko99:
THANK YOU ! for all your work !

downloading and testing.... in few min. :D

ps. gsm build or cdma build it not that same ? only diffrents is in build.prop right ?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I think there might be some APK differences - like STK... but I'm not sure, especially for AOSP.

It won't cause any issues I don't think, you can probably just change the mobile network... GSM build is done, uploading now ;)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] b3bluesman:
This is fantastic!!! Please let me know when the TWRP update is available!!!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] huatz84:
These GAPPS should be working. Got it from dhacker's KitKat for Razr HD.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] turkbot:
Warning no file_contexts

Running newest open recovery
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] huatz84:
Same here. I'm also using Open Recovery 2.07.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
I flashed the CDMA version using OpenRecovery no problem....

Although it was a 'special' version of OpenRecovery.

See this post
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] turkbot:
Maybe need to throw it on the computer and flash recovery thru fastboot, got the same thing again
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] niko99:
For me (gsm build) work , but without Gapps, i try a lot diffrent apps but non of them work, so i dont have possiblity to create a google account and use this rom, but its work very good :)

again, nice work, now waiting for fix and new build :D ( ps. android is also dont see sdcard)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] stevie13.xo:
Man I can not get openrecovery to open up the internal sdcard without freezing up.. Is there any other recoveries I could try?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
T'was the only one I tested that works... there's only three for our device that I am aware of.

Working on fixing TWRP, but it doesn't seem simple/straightforward.

Edit - well, that was odd. I need to do some more testing with the last official TWRP, but I just tested - and I was able to get this to flash... I had to wipe all the partitions manually, including system - and then UNmount system manually. The .zip was able to flash, but TWRP gave me an error that I had no OS. I ignored the error, and was able to boot. Interesting.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] stevie13.xo:
Alright sweet if you get it to work that'd be awesome
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
The gapps I posted on the OP work fine for me...

Confirmed on the external SD not being seen. Also front&rear cams are busted... Keyboard backlight is a nogo. Updating buglist, keep 'em coming!

Yep, check the TWRP thread. Not sure if those steps were required, but I was having issues without doing those steps...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
arrrghhh, for TWRP, make sure you use SELinux enabled kernel (take the one from the latest OR for example). Oh btw., if you get time to browse through the necessary keyboard patches, can you outline them here (Skrilax = lazy (and plays with Droid MAXX atm.)).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] huatz84:
Droid Maxx is such a great device. Great build quality with all the features of Moto X. :good:

Does it work fine in GSM network? No ussd bug or weak signal?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] niko99:
i reinstall all once again , and now Gapps working wery well, GSM working also without any issues :D

so.. for the moment bug list for me look like below :

- keyboard back light

- camera

- SD card

- looking for more ;)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] huatz84:
What recovery did you use? I got no file_context using the latest Open Recovery.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] niko99:
i have lastes recovery 2.07 ( and i also have this information about file_context but waiting and instalationg go forward )

- first i wipe all with factory reset

- second install ROM

- install Gapps from first post

- reboot

and all work
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Yep, I was able to get TWRP working (I updated the TWRP thread).

Still took a few hoops to jump through, although I'm not sure if they were necessary... I will talk to Dees_Troy to see about getting the new TWRP official.

As for keyboard patches, you don't mean these do you?

I imagine it will need moar, but I haven't looked into the detail yet on the keyboard backlight issue.

I was able to flash using the latest OR as well, and now TWRP works too ;)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Skrilax_CZ:
These should be enough for keyboard backlight, there are patches after that, but those involve setting for the timeout (inside CM).
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] CornholioGSM:
soooo....

...i have tested this kk build and is reallty stable and much speeder as stock jb rom :)

i will am monday test two photons - one on latest cm and 2nd on kk....and then let you know.

all was tested with antutu.

....BTW i have tested GTA Vice City...and it has approx +5 frames per sec :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Wow, that's really great!

Hoping to clean up a few issues and release another build of this ;)

Edit - put all the keyboard patches (and then some) into the source, finally got it to build... still missing something, I still have no kb backlight...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] niko99:
i have one more bug

notification led doesn't works
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] CornholioGSM:
...cannot adjust display brightness

...bluetooth cannot accept files
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Heh, I'm still struggling with the keyboard folks ;)

Thanks for the reports tho, I will add them to the buglist! If you find any fixes, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Edit - going through testing things, it seems the camera issue is fixed :). I will upload this build after all... It has many keyboard patches, none of which seem to work...

Edit 2 - can you GSM folks try the latest 11/15 "CDMA" build? I wonder if it will work for you - I would appreciate only having to build one version, if possible. Thanks!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ericcire:
Keep up the good work guys! Many of us are early awaiting!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] niko99:
Confirmed camera work and CDMA build working well for GSM users :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Ah, this is excellent - I was hoping this was the case.

I will continue to build one, hopefully I can keep this up and GSM folks can use the build without issues.

Thanks!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ZenInsight:
This would be great once the bugs are worked out. They are hacking away at the Nexus 7 2012 for KitKat. Just got Miracast (it's kind of laggy, but wokrs) working and someone is looking into USB OTG.

Did anyone try the Google GEL search update or launcher update?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] CornholioGSM:
...i want to test camera too....but i need gsm version !!! :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] niko99:
You make instal cdma version, i test it with gsm networks and work perfect
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Indeed, please see my post here ;)

This will allow me to only make one build. I've got one confirmation, assuming I have two... I will rework the OP so there's only one build.

Thanks!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] hfase:
Just thought I should chime in (even though I gave my Photon to my GF and got a d2spr)...

TWRP will give errors with 4.4 ATM.

Might need to use CWM 6.0.4.3+
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Hey buddy, see the OP. I have a test build of TWRP which works. OpenRecovery works too...
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] pujdo1:
i have 2 questions:

1. when can we expect a official twrp build with selinux ?

2. why is the cdma version working for gsm too ? is there any difference ? i mean the cm10.2 cdma builds didnt worked for gsm users.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
1. Official? Not sure.

2. Why fight it? It works, right? :p

I think some things changed in 4.4 which allows unified builds. I can tell you I didn't do anything specific to make this work.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] pujdo1:
anything new ? because last build is from 15th
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Nope. I can't really sort out why SD card isn't mounting, and the keyboard backlight & caps/FN are going to be a serious undertaking.

Hoping to at least get the SD card fixed... I think most of the other major bugs are fixed, although I did seem to have issues getting data after using wifi.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] CornholioGSM:
...razr m users have working external sd :)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Yep, all the other msm8960 moto's seem to on AOSP. I talked to dhacker about it, he said there were no overlays changed for the Q.

I'm kind of at a loss. I'm not even sure how to troubleshoot it - in logcat, the system seems to think there's no filesystem on the SD.

Any ideas are welcome.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] mrvek:
See storage config details at http://source.android.com/tech/storage/

This might help
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Yep, you can see the msm8960-common tree I use for AOSP here.

https://github.com/razrqcom-dev-team/android_device_motorola_msm8960-common/commits/kk/rootdir/etc

This is the manifest I am using for AOSP

https://github.com/razrqcom-dev-team/android_local_razrqcom
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] kabaldan:
Add

android:primary="true"

here https://github.com/razrqcom-dev-tea...ks/base/core/res/res/xml/storage_list.xml#L40 (add new line between lines 40 and 41)
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
Interesting, trying a new build with this now...

Any reason the Q was the only device which requires this setting? Seems xt907, and possibly others, do not need this...

Thanks regardless, I hope this works!

Edit - unfortunately that did not make a difference.

Here is the logcat snippet... let me know if you want more. Thanks again.

Thanks for trying it! I hope you guys find luck with this device!
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ZenInsight:
So, keyboard and SD card are the remaining issues for 4.4. Is the data ok still. It sounds glitchy. Oh...and I guess bluetooth transfer doesn't work.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] stevie13.xo:
Sdcard and keyboard works.. Try cm11
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] gehstock:

Thank you.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paperllanterns:
I have the Verizon G2 and I was so excited to root and get custom recovery that I forgot to see if I was on the latest update... and I'm not. So of course I can't take the OTA with a custom recovery. So is there a way to get to the latest firmware with TWRP? Or a way to install stock recovery? Either of those would work I suppose.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Deses:
Hello everyone, I'm trying to update my device (Nexus 7 2013 16 Gb Wifi only) to 4.4, but I'm stuck at the verify process... this is the output:

...
Verifying update package...
Installing update...
Verifying current system...
"/system/app/Books.apk" has unexpected contents.
E:Error in /tmp/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

I guess that it's because I deleted some apps that I didn't need from /system/apps, like Google Books, Movies, and some other stuff...

Can I force the update or is it best to download the 4.3 update, extract de apks and restore them?

Thanks a lot.

Cheers.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] heat361:
You will have to either replace those apps back in system/apps or you can use the factory image to flash it back to stock. You might not need to flash the whole factory image if all that was modified was in the /system directory. All you would have to do is

fastboot flash system system.img
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] bostonfaninPA:
Same problem

I am having the same error appear but I did not alter the files at all.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] heat361:
You have to flash the stock image to go back to stock. Then you can use adb sideload to update.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] oupavoc:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] BCSC:
Stay away from local retailers. They screw you. Bestbuy, Futureshop, and the carriers in Canada are selling the lowest quality available. Mostly the 's-line' style found on ebay for $2. Yet they think they should charge 30. I highly recommend Ebay or Amazon. Same cases just not exorbitant prices.

I recently installed Cyanogen Mod 10 on my HTC Sensation. Today I flashed sultan kernel and WiFi stopped working. Did I do something wrong while flashing kernel or what? I've been searching for the solution on this forum but I can't find anything :/

Thanks for helping me out ..
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
Could be a bad flash. Could have been a bad download of Sultan.

Flash another kernel back and see if it fixes it. Then try Sultan again. See if you get differnet results. Download a new copy of Sultan as well to rule out a bad download as a possibility.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Kilo__:
Here's the short and sweet of it. I am on an i747, running TWRP 2.4.4.0, and PACMAN ROM current nightly. Then I updated to 4.6.3.0 TWRP. Recently my phone lost power ( I forgot to charge it). Then it would boot. I tried to do a restore in TWRP and it would fail at data. I tried flashing a ROM, fail at running updater. I tried to restore, again it would fail at data. Nothing would install or restore. Finally, in desparation, I formatted data. Then, after all of internal was wiped, I could restore from a backup.

Problem fixed right? No.

If I reboot, shutdown, crash, lose power, or in anyway power cycle, the phone fails to boot until I completely format data and do restore. WTF is going on? I'm currently trying to downgrade TWRP to see if TWRP is the issue but I doubt it is.

EDIT: 16:23 The problem is in DATA. I used TWRP backup to restore JUST system and boot and it didn't fix the issue. Something is messing up stuff somewhere in /Data. When attempting to restore data, I sometimes get an error about data/lost+found but I can't reproduce the error right now
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gigsaw:
I found a concept on uservoice (not in the first ranks lol). I doubt that Microsoft will ever consider that, but do you think it is possibile to realize it in alternative way? Take a look and tell me what do you think about that (it's a poor quality image)

http://it.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=fmt5i1&s=5

I find it very simple and effective..so sorry that Microsoft will never realize those very good ideas..and instead of it, there will probably come a notification center As a separate app :s :s
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
Is it possible? Yes, of course (no offense, but this is a silly question; there's nothing technically difficult about it). Is it possible for homebrew (as opposed to Microsoft) developers to implement? Not at this time, but in concept, not hard. We just don't have the ability to replace the system binaries yet, or a few other pieces that we need. But assuming the existence of a unified notification system, and knowing where the switches for toggleable services are in the OS, we could combine those pieces easily enough.

One issue with that image: putting it on the Start button is kind of a stupid suggestion. For one thing, Start already does things on both normal press and press-and-hold. For another thing, the app switcher is already displayed when the user presses-and-holds the Back button. Changing that around now would just be confusing. I could imagine (but do not ever expect to see, at least not officially) a setting that lets the user choose what to do with each button... but for the mean time, they should keep the defaults as-is. They already screwed over the Search button...
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gigsaw:
No offense, don't worry :D your answers are always welcome because I can understand a lot from them. Anyway I suppose (and it's only mu tought) that this concept is concentrated on windows button because Microsoft in next releases will kill the back button (probably it will be replaced by an on-screen button)..or at least there are rumors about that. To be honest I find a clean phone more elegant than the ones with soft touch buttons..of course is only an estethical consideration :)
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greenboxal:
I'd like this concept, one of the best things of WP8 is that it's almost all C#. And C# code can be easily patched/decompiled/recreated. We just need to find a way to replace system binaries.

In any case, considering we have interop-unlock and can access some registry entries, I will not get surprised if we could replace the application that manages the home screen(which also manages the task manager) just by changing registry entries.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liamm7:
Hi All,

New to the forums and have been doing a bit of modifications to my Settings.apk and settings.db files thanks to all the very helpful people in the forum but I'm stuck in changing the default setting for the screen lock.

Essentially I want to stop the Swipe to unlock screen from appearing after a device restart. I have stopped the display from sleeping by modifying the "screen_off_timeout" value in the settings.db file, but that doesn't stop the lock screen from appearing after a restart.

Does anyone know where this setting would be stored? I tried changing "lockscreen.disabled" in the "secure" table to "1" but it seemed to default back to "0" after a reboot. Is this what I should be changing but am doing something wrong?

I am using a generic chinese Allwinner A31s tablet with Android 4.2.2.

Thanks in advance for any help offered.
