[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clayleviathan:
Could someone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong when I try to root my nexus 5?

I've followed the many similar cf-autoroot instructions I've found online, but to be honest, I think that there must be some prerequisite steps I need to do before I can actually root.

Here's what I've done so far: I've downloaded the ADT bundle and installed the 4.4 SDK and recommended tools. I've also downloaded the cf auto root files and have them saved on my desktop. However, when I enter chmod +x root-mac.sh into terminal it says command not found. When I simply try to open the file from finder it opens the script in text editor, which obviously does nothing. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Everything i have seen online make it look so easy, but I'm getting nowhere... Could someone please help me figure this out?

Using a toolkit my be useful if you're not sure of things, but obviously caution is still advised if you aren't sure what you are doing.

I used this with absolutely no problems. I was originally looking forward to manually inputting the commands in terminal just to get familiar with it but saw the Android icon. in my curiosity I clicked it and it started the process for me. Took a couple of minutes.

It's done on Mac just like it's done on ANY os.

You need fastboot and adb in your PATH or you need to have all the files in the same directory.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OdeeanRDeathshead:
I have never used gapi, I was looking for a solution to a problem. When you have used GXOpenDisplay to take over the screen dose this mean that what other programs/os write to the screen will no longer happen until you give up controll of the screen? Or dose it just mean that you have power to write anywhere and if new data gets written you just write over it again?

I also see that GXOpenDisplay need a handle of a window to be full screen mode. What I want to do is read in whats on the screen so if I make a full screen window it would defeat the purpose. Can it work with an invisible full screen window so that I can provide a valid hwnd of the top full screen window but still actually see the next window. I have no need for writing to the buffer only reading from it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ku3vw:
MS recomends get rid of GAPI and use frame buffer access

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/dpi_awareness.asp

(100% for VGA devices)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OdeeanRDeathshead:
Thankyou very much ku3vw. That looks more usefull. I have not started yet so this will lead me in a different direction. Sometimes it pays to ask :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OdeeanRDeathshead:
I just finished testing the ExtEscape way and it works well for my newer devices. I didn't try and read yet but I did manage to draw a few lines at various locations and colour on my screen. No window needed!

The big problem is that this is not impemented by the oem's on any of my older devices. Part of the purpose was to grab some images from a cammera card that plugs into an old ipaq expantion jacket. Still this was a help.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OdeeanRDeathshead:
Out of curiosity dose anyone know if there is some logical order for the progression of colours from 0-65535. RGB() works properly with the buffer but I was playing arround with straight numbers to see if there is any pattern. eg 255 is white but 65535 is the same white, and even small increments can result in vastly different colours.

There is a lot of bad stuff this writing to the screen could be used for. It surprizes me that it is this easy. There is realy no give away that the image that results was generated not by a window, eg no flicker.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
OdeeanRDeathshead: I've never done any GAPI work, so can't help on your immediate issue, but offtopic, I had a possible idea about how to get better screen captures - read of my woes here.

Now this is possibly all poo, and forgive my ignorance because I have never used it, but I understand that using GAPI, it's possible to get the memory address for the screen buffer in a painless fashion. So, one starts GAPI, gets the screen buffer address, and then closes GAPI. Now, I don't know if that address is the same as the normal non GAPI screen buffer, but one way or the other, we get the screen buffer address, okee dokee..

Next step, create the equivalent of a memory mapped file in the space of the screen buffer.

Next, write a background app, interrupt or timer driven, to continuously append the contents of the memory mapped file to a file saved in local storage. Thus, we should have a continous dump of the screen buffer - ie continuous screen capture. The file needn't append, it can overwrite the locally stored file, and use it for streaming...

Subject to storage speeds, we can store this "file" on a network drive, eg through USB or WIFI, or otherwise access the file remotely. In this manner, we can then stream the PDA's screen buffer (in)directly to a non local device, permitting us to have relatively high speed remote displays eg for powerpoint presentations etc.

Now, again, I have no idea if any of this is possible, but I know that most apps currently just continuously screen grab, create a compatible bitmap and then save the bitmap. However, if we directly stream the screen buffer, there's no processing required by the local device (the PDA), and the remote device (a PC?) can translate the buffer into a displayable image using its own CPU.

However, this might all be the gibberings of an in-experienced coder. Wibble.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OdeeanRDeathshead:
You are getting a bit more complex than I had in mind. The "other end" for me is another pocket pc. Because of the cost of data transmition I do not want to stream the data to reproduce video on the other side. Instead my monitoring app will ask the user some questions regarding the environment and then on a regular basis (say once every 30 seconds) perform a comparison between the new image and an older one stored in file. If it determines that a significant change has occured it will sms a notification to the remote end. Once the sms is received the user will then connect (via gsm) and veiw the image history around the change.

With the gapi, if the pointer obtained was directly to the screen buffer it would be great. I could create a full screen window and pass that hwnd in then save the pointer then get rid of the window. The ExtEscape dose work well, but tonight I will try doing what you suggested to see if I can get the same result on an older device.

***I just had a thought, I will try using HWND_DESKTOP as the handle, its really just 0 I think but cast to hwnd. The only other time I used it was in mapwindowpoints, but I got some strange results there so I normally stay clear of the desktop window.***
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OdeeanRDeathshead:
Ok. I did what I said. The behaviour is strange. Using the ExtEscape the pointer I got allowed me to write a colour to the buffer sequentialy, ie I know the start so write this many values of colour into that many bytes and the screen is full. When I try the same idea using gapi, when I copy the memory to the buffer it is not alway contigous. Also the pitch * the x * y may give the correct amount of bytes in the buffer (?) but thery are not arranged in the same layout as the screen, so If I write what I think is the correct amount the screen fillw in a narrow column going off the bottom. The handle I used to open gapi was HWND_DESKTOP, but I do not think this is the problem. It could be that the memory I get from GXBeginDraw is not the actual buffer but is some kind of logical memory that gapi later tries to put in the buffer.

I will next try addressing each pixcel induvidually when writing the colour values.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] OdeeanRDeathshead:
directly addressing each pixcel worked and now I can set any pixcel on the screen. For example, to make a line 120 pixcels long in the direction of the x axis, starting half way(hard coded to 160) down the screen....

unsigned char* gapiPointer;

void * buf2=NULL;

//prepare gapi

GXOpenDisplay(HWND_DESKTOP,/*GX_FULLSCREEN|kfDirect*/NULL);

//get dimensions

GXDisplayProperties memStat=GXGetDisplayProperties();

long size=1;

buf2=malloc( size );

//set the colour for just one pixcel, ie size is 1 (byte)

memset(buf2,RGB(0,255,255),size);

//get pointer

gapiPointer=(unsigned char*)GXBeginDraw();

if(gapiPointer==NULL)

{

MessageBox(NULL,_T("gapi error"),NULL,MB_OK);

}

else

{

//draw a line

for(int k=0;k<120;k++)

{

memcpy((gapiPointer+(k * memStat.cbxPitch) + (160 * memStat.cbyPitch)),buf2,size);

}

}

//end drawing to free memory

GXEndDraw();

//close gapi

GXCloseDisplay();

free(buf2);

buf2=NULL;

This could realy slow down opperations where a whole block of memory needs to be written. Copying one pixcel at a time is the only way I could get it to work. If there is someone who can show how to copy a whole screen at one time using gapi I would appreciate it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
OdeeanRDeathshead: I may be thinking wrong again (btw, the idea I posted was more for a generic streaming app...) but are you trying to get a screenshot of the main display, or specifically trying to grab the gapi output/overlay?

[HTC One X+] thisaint:
Hello everyone.

First of all, sorry about my English because I'm not a native speaker.

I have a phone model - HTC One X+ Plus PM63100 for AT&T 64GB - with cracked screen.

I found out that my phone has SONY display version ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2164760 )

Wanted to replace digitizer with front panel and order it from here http://www.etradesupply.com/oem-htc...embly-with-front-housing-and-light-guide.html but person who answered my question about compatibility said that it is not compatible with my phone model.

However, there is a one customer review under that replacement part which says that "it turned out to be uncompatible with my HTC One X+ international version. I do not know why this is the case but it is what it is."

In wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTC_One_X it seem international X+ and AT&T version are same size.

I'm very confused and desperate, searching more than 2 months and can't find which replacement part fits my phone.

Please advice what to do or purchase.

Also, are both X+ models - S728e?

Thank you beforehand.
[HTC One X+] nrshastri:
cracked screen

I was in a similar situation some time back, when my Telus unlocked HOX+ 64 Gb dropped and the screen cracked.

I gave it to a local repair guy, he ordered a HOX screen first and then realised that HOX+ has a little different hardware (some screws were in different places). hence, HOX and HOX+ are slightly different builds. Also, the international HOX+ and AT&T/Telus HOX+ are also different I suppose. Firstly the they have red coloured capacitive buttons at the bottom (also there is no red ring around the camera at the back).

The part shown in your link seems to be the same one that I have, so i think it should be compatible.
[HTC One X+] thisaint:
Thank you for response.

I don't care about button colors, even logo. I just want to purchase match display. Could you please (if it is possible of course) ask your local repair guy what was the model he replaced for your phone? Even link will be very helpful for me.

Thanks againt
[HTC One X+] AndroHero:
I've been using my phone since i quite badly cracked it last month. Touch screen is still working fine and i may not even get the screen fixed.

Only thing i'm worried about is if the device is less waterproof now i have large cracks in it....:/
[HTC One X+] nindo:
hi thisaint,

i checked with my local guy, but sorry, he doesn't seem to have any clue regarding the model number or the actual source of the panel. most these repair guys here have a trader/distributor from whom they get all kinds of accessories required for repair and they hesitate to give out the details fearing loss of business.!

Dear friend,

thank you for response.

I'll be happy to be in Mumbai or even in USA to repair my phone but unfortunately I live in another country. :))

I had a hope to see my phone repaired before this christmas but it seem I'll meet holidays without it :)
[HTC One X+] thisaint:
Solved :)

Hello everyone.

Finally I have found a replacement lcd screen digitizer frame assembly at ebay/com.

Seller assure me that his SHARP screen is interchangeable with my previous SONY screen and I risked and purchased his item for 65 USD.

(insert ebay com) /itm/LCD-Display-Touch-Screen-Digitizer-Frame-Front-Cover-For-HTC-ONE-X-Plus-S728E-/251348208725?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item3a85854c55

I'm using it without any issues, however screen buttons are red :), that's all difference with original.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techno79:
I have the Nexus 4 and I'm getting a really annoying error. I had the latest pre-KitKat stock ROM on it yesterday. I received the KitKat OTA update and proceeded to install it. It installed fine and went through the application optimisation steps and once it did it's final reboot it came up with an "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped". I've got options to Report or click Ok. Clicking Ok will just bring the message back often immediately but sometimes with a few seconds gap. I could interact with the UI between dialogs but literally have split seconds so made navigation extremely slow (i.e. takes a dozen attempts sometimes to click on something behind the dialog).

I've tried a full factory resetting from the phone menu and from the recovery menu, both have done nothing. The phone continues to display the error as soon as the phone boots up after the reset (i.e. before I even go through the phone setup).

I've managed to Report the issue and Preview the details which reveal the following:

Hi Guys!

I'm sorry if this question has been asked a gazillion times, but I want to know what I'm getting into first as I am new to rooting.

Build Number is:

6.2.B.0.211

Therefore since it appears to be the most recent firmware, I can simply skip to the rooting portion of the guide correct?

Thanks, I've been hoping to get my phone rooted to get rid of all the bloatware.

You guys are awesome!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] WGuitar:
I have attempted to root the device to no avail. Does the firmware have to be flashed over? Or can I use the firmware currently on it. If it has to be flashed over, my phone does not appear to have drivers in the flash tool. Can I flash without installing a driver?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Dark Wraith:
u have an unlocked bootloader or locked???
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] WGuitar:
I believe it is locked as I have not done anything to the phone besides upgrading to JB from ICS. I used the Sony PC Companion to do so as well.

Edit: Bootloader is locked and apparently cannot be unlocked. (According to System info)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Dark Wraith:
It doesnt matter...can you tell me the steps that you did briefly and where you faced the problem?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] WGuitar:
It tells me to use the display system check but it just gets stuck hanging at a white screen on my phone and the program does not continue from there. If you could tell me the version of the root program and which option to use, I might be able to do it, but I've tried a few different versions of it with different options. Not exactly sure what I can do.

Edit: Do I have to flash my firmware before trying to root? It doesn't say anywhere that I have to, however could that be what's not allowing me to root?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlackIce21:
I've been facing these problems for over a week now and it's extremely frustrating. I get these random shutdowns when I'm just opening an app or using my phone longer than a certain amount of time. The phone will have 100% charge in the morning then shuts down and if I try restarting the Google splash screen shows up and shuts down again. Then the battery level will be at 70% and the whole thing happens again till I have no charge.

So when 4.4 came out I thought I'd update and these problems will go away and they didn't. Now the same thing happens I've done a data wipe/factory reset, cleared cache but still nothing. I thought some apps were causing problems so I uninstalled everything but still no use. I'm currently on stock 4.4 using the stock kernel. I was also on stock 4.2.1 when these problems started. Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be?

Thanks.
