Hi thanks to you all yet again going in for a details.....you guys must be spending awful lot of time in replying to queries....while at pub too ;)... Sorry for the belated reply as I was tearing apart my 910--a typical hardware monkey. I found the hw neatly laid out but I wonder why it did not click like v3i or Defy. Moto tried v8/9 marketing but not this to that extent.

Yes, the razrbalde and Matt's utils did not work as rightly pointed as they are exclusive 912. Hence I use the VirtualBox method. The guys have done a great job at that.

I would have stuck with stock JB but for the curse of JB I have faced like certain modded jb giving touch sound unless touch sound is turned off in settings. Besides on stock JB on my 910 I had annoying crackle while only on wifi call. I know CM11 will never let me down. Used to it on Defy. And it did not let me down.

Please forget about 2nd init as that's for Defy but SafeStrap functionally seems to be the same to me.

Now that you gents have confirmed out of your experience that it works neatly in stock slot I will stick to that.

I just noticed that someone on this forum has posted "not enough mem" on installing apps issue! My first idea on that would be due to Slot X use. No, I do not want to go into details of loop device!

drkahughes mentioned that I would one day be in 'you guys' position to help people out.... I see that myself say say in million years to grow to that level.

And thanks to ohmster saying that I am a decent guy :D

On the side, I used ubuntu on my android tab quite sometime back. Probably even before Rel 12. I am not sure. It was on a miserly mem tablet. And yes, I am more of an experimenter. Experimentation helps to help others like you guys do. Hats off gents.

Since you gents take turns to help please note my thanks go to each of you individually and hope I have answered each of you. And hope "low mem" problem is resolved soon for the one who needs help.

Download Cm11 rom zip in your computer/laptop

Open it with Winzip,Winrar,7zip,it doesn´t matter

Open my zip (I attached it for you)

Drag META-INF folder from my zip to CM11 zip and replace it

Happy flashing ;)

Hey kayyappan, that was an awful nice thing to say about the group and the individuals that help you and make you feel welcome. Sure, if you hang out, read, learn, experiment, you have as much opportunity to sit at the help desk as all the rest of us do. But that is strictly voluntary.

Since you are new here at XDA, I should give you "The Thanks Button" heads up, we have an "Official Thanks System" here at XDA. *If you already know this stuff, excuse me, and just skip it please. The URL in orange will explain it but, what it really means is that when you ask for help or see any post that you believe is helpful and worthwhile, you tap the big "Thanks" button on the bottom left of that person's post that you found to be helpful. This will raise that member's Thanks count by 1. It is a nice thing to do for someone that helps because it is a small, tangible "badge" that is displayed by the member's name. The more Thanks they have, the more respect they get (In general) and it is a nice treat you can give out. Plus, you make friends that way by rewarding the person that you found to be helpful. You get 8 of them per day to use or discard as you see fit.

Wow, you really are an experimenter and tear right into the guts of your device without fear and pretty much know what you are doing. Good for you, kayyappan. See, you are new but you have already sat at the help desk by posting your thoughts on the "not enough mem" issue. I have never seen that issue and did not get a chance to address it. Since you did volunteer to try and help the mem issue, I will give you a Thanks tap right now.

Ubuntu on a tablet, that is pretty cool. So make yourself at home, buddy. You are very welcome here, friend. ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Wow, [MENTION=5057697]welder73[/MENTION] I saw this post, do not use BMM, found your original post with instructions, was going to post it to help X0LARIUM and refer him to you for instructions. Before I could hit the post button, you had already "been there, done that". Way to go, Welder! You are really Johnny on the spot today. This is great, man. You have experience with BMM and XT910 phones so you have a lot of good information to help others with. Great job buddy. Thanks for helping him out. :good:

EDIT:

Oh man, I used up all 8 of my Thanks cookies but I will give it when they refresh at midnight. Great job, thanks for helping him, Welder!

A quick "off-topic"..

Haha, I'm glad you "visited" my side of the world! You're not the only one with that mentality (wild animals running the streets - just visit a game reserve. The Kruger National Park is a place I really love, but far away from me. I like animals and nature somewhat). I don't know where it comes from, guess it's just Africa... Ebola also now coming from Africa (lol). No cases here though!

A very good description of South Africa is that it's both the best country in the world, and the worst country in the world. Really! ;)

I also like to "walk-around" the US on Google Maps - so awesome! In fact I was really there like donkey's years ago, back in 1993, but I was still young.. Went to Miami and Disney World - I think that's Florida (?). I just remember eating shredded wheat and drinking 7-Up and a very hot day at DW (and splash mountain).

Just to quickly get on track so I'm not just "spamming"..

I must say that 10/27 has been working very well for me.

I thought it was just me. I got the same warning. I noticed that they all updated out of the blue later on. Oh well, I picked up a Droid Turbo today. I am outta here!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] scottgti:
I was able to OTA with the warning, just couldn't download apps.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Oh wow, this is really something different. I didn't get memory warnings with OTA, it just didn't work. I got the memory message with installing apps. When does this message appear, like what are you doing when it shows up, Scott? Oh, and is it on any build or just lately or certain roms when it happens?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] scottgti:
For me, it happened when trying to update apps. It's a toast message.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Tom is saying that it has been happening for the past few roms he installed. I think it could possibly be a rom issue. Something in the current roms do not agree with your device setups. You both have XT912, Verizon US?

Any similarities between Scott and Tom would be a good lead to track down. Do you both run Xposed Modules? Chance of each having the same module, something that could affect the system like GravityBox, Trickster, or any system tuner modules? Both running the same service or app perhaps? Are any or both of you running some app, module, or service that is not normally included in CM11 like music, apps that synch and phone home? Just trying to determine if you both have some common item that is not normally included in CM11. Did this start on a particular build date that you both have in common? A link like that could be a valuable clue, boys.

Ohhh, Scott got a new phone. I guess never mind the dual experiment. Scott, remember who your friends are and tell us how you like the new phone when you get it "hooked up", will ya?

Hmmm, I just took the 10/29 update a couple of hours ago, seems nice but 10/30 is now out, has a performance boost and fixed the audio HAL again. Might just take that leap to finish testing. Knock on wood, I have been having a great run since The Big One, 10/16. I run 12 Xposed Modules and have had no issues to speak of since then. Wow, this is a really good run so far.

Thanks for reporting, guys. Tom if anything changes can you let us know, might just be a new rom to fix you up or something in your system. I am just installing 10/30 and will let all know how it is. :good:

Low on mem

"Low on memory" usually refers to application memory. Unless so many applications are loaded one should not be getting low memory message. There are different opinions about how low it can be. Some have found above 300MB for 4.4.4. I am not sure if it is correct. Some users have faced problem with Chrome Browser in the past reporting that each tab starts a process thus occupying more mem. Moving all media files to external sd and clearing application cache can be tried. To clear app cache go to settings - storage - internal storage - Touch Cached Data to clear it. Hope that helps.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
What...? 272meg isn't enough application memory to sneeze in! And you say you created a super-sized SafeStrap slot for this. How about you load up Titanium Backup (download the free version if you have to) and snap a screen shot of the main screen. (The one that shows memory use, see below) and we'll try to see what's going on...

Build Test - NIGHTLY Build 10/30 Flunks out

Build 10/30 Flunks out

As you can see, I did install CM11 NIGHTLY build 10/29 and within ½ hour, decided to jump up to NIGHTLY build 10/30. All seemed well. The past 10 builds or more were ALL good, since the long awaited 10/16 NIGHTLY release. But I have now run 10/30 for just about 24 hours and had 3 issues with it so far.

Black screen, took a bit of screen and button tapping to light up again. Hard buttons lit.

Trebuchet does an FC while updating apps at the Play Store.

Total BSOD (Black Screen Of Death) when I called mom. Dialer came up screen went dark, could hear mom on other end saying hello. Could not get screen lit in any manor. Lost the call, had to hold Power+Vol Down to shut down device.

Okay, that is like WAY too much issue with one build. None of the previous 10 builds had any issues like this. For the most part, it performed well, but losing calls to a BSOD is never acceptable. I downgraded to 10/29 to finish testing that build. Changelog does show a couple items to come that might fix the launcher and black screen. I am avoiding NIGHTLY build 10/30.

For some of you, this build might work out quite well. All I can do is report my own testing results and that is it.

Happy Halloween folks!

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
What are you doing, Tom? Give up and wait for the new phone or just taking the Halloween night off?

Just asking because I got a lot of time in you now, which I don't mind of course, that's why I am here. But if you are just going to scrap it for a new phone, then I can kick back and move on.

So, taking a break or throwing in the towel, buddy? :confused:

Cheers man. :cool:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SimpTheChimp:
Nah, not quitting yet ;) Just had to do the Halloween thing and pass out the candy to the kiddies!

Seriously though, it will be most likely a couple of weeks before we switch - I hate to, to be honest, but I gotta get my wife a new phone cause the Bionic is on it's last legs. And if I have to switch plans, I may as well get myself something fast and fancy!:cool: And you have to admit the specs for the Turbo are awesome!!

But in the meantime, I'll get this DiskUsage app and see what it tells me. Irregardless, I know others are having this same issue, so if I/we can figure out what is going on it will help anyone else with the same problem.

I got a lot on my plate today, so it may be awhile before I can try this - but I'll get back with the results!

Update: I just went ahead and flashed 11/01.... I'll see how this new update works.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] my2cents:
I'm in the same boat. My wife just complains about her razr maxx and I am getting to the point of wanting new hardware too. Verizon is running a deal where they will give you $100 bill credit for a working smartphone when you upgrade to the turbo. We are going to Verizon in about 3 hours. On edge, with my data plan, the phone really doesn't cost anything and then they are going to give me $100 for each of our razrs, I have to do it... ;)

I'll look for you guys over in the turbo forums. The only problem is that it doesn't have root yet and it sounds like it might be a little while. It comes with 4.4.4, so I think there is a good chance!

Ohmster, thanks for being the community organizer around here - keeping people active and the discussion going. I loved that this forum still hasn't died! :good:

11-1-14 nightly

So far the 11-1-14 nightly seems to be running well for me. I did also start having issues with the 10-30-14 nightly, specifically the slow wake up and the black screen where i had to reboot the phone.

On the space issue, i believe that 300mb free internal storage is what is recommended to keep things running smooth. It has been a long time since i have had that problem. I usually run a 'cache cleaner' app every few days to help free up space. But the cache cleaner app's only do so much. So about once a week or so when i notice my storage is getting more, i go into 'manage apps' and i check the biggest offenders, the main one is Facebook which can easily keep 100mb of data stored from just one week of use. Then i check email, gmail, chrome, etc and clear out any that have too much data stored.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] scottgti:
I traded my old HTC Droid Incredible in for $100. They also waive the $30 activation fee for the Turbo. The Turbo is a beast. I have gotten more screen on time than I could get with my Maxx. Everything works really fast. I was having having the low memory notification when upgrading apps. But after a while they upgraded on their own.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SimpTheChimp:
Oooooo... so where did you see this deal on the $100 off? I know I saw it somewhere myself, but for the life of me I can't find it now. I (like Scottgi) have an old Droid Incredible I would LOVE to part with to get a $100 bill credit. That is, if I can reflash the stupid Incredible back to stock! (it was rooted and had CM 7 on it!)

I wonder how long this 'deal' will last?

---------- Post added at 04:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:14 PM ----------

Anyone else flashed the 11/01 release? I did this morning... and am starting to regret it. Lots of orange bars... but most importantly everything seems to be running really slow, with lots of crashes. In fact, I lost a phone call because I couldn't get the phone to respond; then it took me three tries to enter my PIN because the keyboard and screen were so slow.

So far this is a bum build for me - thinking about going back to 10/29. Just curious if anyone else experienced bad stuff with 11/01?

---------- Post added at 04:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 PM ----------

Scottgti... Did you ever have your Droid Incredible rooted? And another ROM on it? Curious because I did (rooted + CM 7).... I'm trying to install the old last 'stock' build they had - I found it on the web, I flashed it (by putting it on my SD card and going into recovery) but the phone will never boot after that.

Just curious what you had on the phone when you turned it in, and if you had to go back to stock as well.

-Tom
[Motorola Droid RAZR] scottgti:
I had CM on it. I pulled/kept the SD card and did a factory reset from settings. Still rooted and CM when I turned it in. They wanted it to power on and no cracks in the screen.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] SimpTheChimp:
Hey Ohmster! Give the Turbo a quick Google - the specs are impressive:

KitKat 4.4.4, 2.7 GHz quad-core CPU, 3 GB (LPDDR3 with 64-bit access), 32/64GB, 5.2” 1440p Quad HD 2560x1440 AMOLED, 565 ppi, LTE (of course), 3900 mAh BATTERY (!), 21 MP Rear Camera, BT 4.0, along with all the 'normal' stuff.

That battery is what makes it, they say it will go for 2 days, but I figure one day with heavy use - but that's a lot better than my RAZR which is lucky to go thru noon before needing a charge!! :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] my2cents:
I found it in an email. It has to be a working "stock" smartphone. The incredible would work, if you could get it back to stock. I traded in 2 razr maxx phones (one even had a crack) and they gave me 200 dollars in bill credit. If I had older smartphones, I would have done that! If memory serves me, the deal ends on Nov 27th or something like that. You have a couple weeks anyway.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Thanks all of you guys! :o

I really spent a LOT of time on the one post I wrote, but wanted to get the story out to anyone who cares. And some of you, actually *do* care. :D

I wanted to write back to more of you and then, I finally got my email from stargo and we, ...TALK. A LOT,

for a long time

. So there went the rest of my afternoon and now dinner is going to be really late. :(

I will be back, I have some Thanks to give and want to see what all this Turbo is all about.

Stargo is not gone, he is really busy with other work besides Android. But he did push hundreds of commits to the cm11 tree and that, in part, is how we got such really good builds. He is trying to do something

really nice

for us with the Razrs, but they guy has all the odds stacked against him. I know Michael, he will get it done. Sorry I am not at liberty to say what it is just yet, but trust me, you want this, BAD. :angel:

I guess super late dinner is better than none at all, right? ;)

-Paul

EDIT:

WOW! Now I see why you are all hopped up on this Turbo! The specs blow these Razr phones out of the water. Speaker is not too good though. Uh, I see the phone but I want to know how "big" it is. Hmm, I can use a ruler against my own phone to find out. I really want something with a bigger screen like that Galaxy phone, but the specs on this Turbo really are high. I need to compare it to the Galaxy to see, using Galaxy as a reference because I have seen them, they are super fast, BIG screen, and nice to use. Not quite too big for the pocket.

Lets see how bit it is compared to a Razr:

Dimensions	143.5 x 73.3 x 8.3 - 11.2

That is about 5/8" longer, 1/8" wider, and as thick and some models a little thicker than our Razrs. Must be model with a bigger battery. Oh, here is a side by side with the big Galaxy that I love!

Motorola DROID Turbo vs Samsung Galaxy Note 4

Wow, it is not "as huge" as the Galaxy, but still bigger than what we have. Easier to put in pocket than Galaxy. Comes with Kit Kat and plans for Lollipop. Nice. No root on something this new, no doubt. That irks me a bit but it is sure to be rooted once out in the field. Ohmster cannot have a non-rooted phone. That is sacrilegious man.

For sure a drooler. But I am super broke. Verizon with their darned $150 phone bill makes sure of it. Hey, is this an expensive upgrade or what? I am past due to update and Verizon will "give me something nice" if I sign on again. Man I cannot scrape up $200-300 to get this with a contract. Retail is $700. Please guys, tell me that Verizon is "giving them away" to good customers? :fingers-crossed:

Oh man there is just SO much stuff to read here. I have to really go over this but before I set myself up for heartbreak, can you guys out there that have already contacted Verizon about this phone give me an idea of what it will cost to upgrade to this new device? What are they offering? :eek:

Christ! 7:30 and I have not even

started

dinner yet! Dam! Now I am excited and I have to cook, eat, and eventually will get back here. Anyone? The Verizon offer? What is it?

Thank you very much.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sherri:
I don't usually eat dinner before 9:00 pm anyway, so this isn't late!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
LOL! I know, honey.

But I cook real dinners. With fresh meat, vegetables, salad, preparation, cook time, eating dinner, and cleanup. That will be at lease an hour and a half. Probably 2 hours. All of this is not an issue and perfectly normal, except for one thing...

...YOU guys and that darned Turbo! Now I cannot get it out of my head. The CPU, sdcard, and memory are 3X (4 and 8X for the sdcard) what is in the Razr. Now the Razr on Kit Kat is pretty fast, pretty good. But not one of us can say, "It is FAST". No, it really isn't, but it's okay and all the features of Kit Kat do have us amazed.

I can't get the thing out of my head and what would normally be a wonderful home cooked dinner is suddenly a chore that I can't wait to be done with so I can get back to this, "Turbo Thing". :silly:

You know what, [MENTION=838017]sherri[/MENTION] wins the "Not only good looking but wise and intelligent thing to do" award. Sherri is right. I eat after 9:00 myself and the phone is not going anywhere tonight. It is a psychological thing now. I must put it aside, and go

enjoy

a good dinner. Yeah. That is the sensible thing to do. Gosh, I really need a "sherri" around here. Oh that would be... . ...so nice! :)

Alright, I am outta here for real. Hopefully some members will have the goods on what Verizon is offering in the way of a deal on these new devices. Merci beaucoup, "Mademoiselle Cheri", mon ami! :angel:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sherri:
I cook real dinners as well. I work either 8-5:30 or 9-5:30, chasing after and educating 15 month old children. Then I go to the gym, run at least 6 miles, work my arms (although I started using diaper changes as a chance to get extra arm work in there...) and then come home to cook. Usually 2 meals, as oldest daughter is vegan. Sometimes I have to run out and buy fresh ingredients in between, as fresh produce doesn't keep to long.

If I am lucky, I have a chance to read a newspaper or catch up here...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] SimpTheChimp:
COOL! And I just got the Incredible back to stock and working! So I'll charge up the battery and make good use of it. Thanks !
[Motorola Droid RAZR] scottgti:
[MENTION=4245858]Ohmster[/MENTION] The 32g Turbo is $199. Turn in any old working smartphone for a $100 credit. And they waive the $30 activation fee. For reference-
