news brief 11-30-13

ok guys.... i think im going to close shop.. i really appreciate the feedback ... the problem lies with the new bootloader for some .. yet not others.. at this point instead of me chasing my tail .. im gonna close the thread.. American devices are not having this issue .. again its ur bootloader..

for example im using an old bootloader . due to att in america forcing those who want to be able to flash roms to stay on an older ones .. you guys have an unlocked bootloader so some of u updated and were still able to root and flash a custom recovery etc.. but at the same time took away the ability to downgrade etc

to those that beta tested thank you .. for those that tried to give feed back that was helpful thank u .. but there were some here i was very surprised about!! , a little tip for those who were rude ..

if any dev takes there time to try to help you guys .. not asking for money or sending u to a link that earns them money for downloading a rom .. maybe u should try to be a bit more grateful .. being kind to some1 that is trying to help u * for free* is the least u can do ... we are not entitled to custom roms and we are not entitled to some1 helping us

for those that have zero issues im sorry i have to close this thread .. also again to those of u who were helpful thank u very very much!!! .. I hope u guys can find a work around for what samsung has caused !!

mods sorry to be a pain .. but please close this thread!!!

Thanks for your effort mate. Using your base along with Faux not countered any issues yet on old bootloader.

I'm assuming the KNOX bootloaders are playing havoc, unfortunately without users not posting any logcats it's hard to determine what the problem is. But thanks for your time and effort in trying to get this to work :good:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Buff52:
Noticed in the last day or two several missed calls - turns out something had caused my phone to lose its ringtone setting - when attempting to reset am presented with only one option under "settings/sound settings/ phone ringtone" , and that is "silent" - same is true under "notification ringtone". Both custom and default multiple ringtones/notification are in their correct default folders (i.e. defaults are in : system/media/audio/ringtones etc) , so I presume its the path that is causing the problem. I am running stock 2.3 rom (rooted) with "voidstab" mod to reverse int. sd/ext.sd. Maybe I could correct the path in a T.A.(J android hacker) if I knew how to! Any help or advice would be much appeciated asap (as my phone - and hence my life - is gonna be pretty quiet until then!) Thanks folks and i love y`all for current and previous help given.:fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] Buff52:
OK -- sorted! - Noticed on booting, usb & sd storage was being "prepared" but not "scanned" , thus neither inbuilt nor custom sounds for ringtones/notifications were being made available hence only silent mode available.

Wasnt long before culprit discovered - "Rescan media . root" which enables : on demand scanning / disabling/ re-enabling . Seems like it had caused the problem which disappeared upon freezing app in TB.. (This app faultless for 2 years, suddenly gives probs eh? Who`d have a smartphone eh? (dont answer that!)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venuz-Planeta:
Hi, so here I am S-OFF, and I install a RUU that I've updated to the latest version. Then I installed the Superboot (r2-HTC One-Superboot) from the Bootloader, it strikes me OKAY, and the window closes quickly. Then the phone gets stuck on the bootloader in fastboot mode. Is this normal?

I still supported ten seconds and reboot it.

Will I have the root each OTA update?

Can I put a custom Recovery?

Thank you.

French :

Bonsoir, alors voilà, je suis S-OFF, et j'ai installer une RUU que j'ai mis à jour jusqu'à la dernière version. Ensuite, j'ai installé le SuperBoot (r2-htcone-superboot) à partir du Bootloader, ça me marque OKAY, et la fenêtre se ferme rapidement. Puis le téléphone reste bloqué sur le Bootloader en mode fastboot. Est-ce normal ?

Je reste appuyé une dizaine de secondes et ça reboot.

Vais-je avoir le root a chaque mise à jour OTA ?

Puis-je mettre un Recovery custom ?

Merci.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] sd_matto:
Built in tethering?

Loving the build so far; very smooth. Too bad Morfic never made a Trinity ROM for KitKat for this unit; it would complement rastakat well.

One thing I am missing using this ROM (updated from CM 10.1.3 - based on 4.2.2) is built-in tethering. It does not appear to be present as a menu item with SIM out, or with SIM inserted (could be due to ATT messing with stuff, as I have an ATT SIM card). If it is present, but being hidden by my insertion of ATT SIM, then please consider build ROM with ATT Tethering fix as described generally in this link - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2452336&page=3 - and more specifically in post 30 of that link.

Still putting the ROM through its paces, and will report any additional issues on here.

Thanks again for having built this for this N7 2012; now I can use rastakat on all my devices (N5, N7 2012, N7 2013).
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] RBMacGregor:
Hey sd_matto I will look into the tethering issue as soon as I get the chance. I appreciate the information. I don't have the device so without the heads up I would never have known.

This seems to be the first KitKat ROM running ART without any com... related errors, even Cover is working for me. Flashed this with slimkat gapps v1.6 and SuperSU v1.8, booted up and changed to ART. Used TB to restore backup apps and data. So far so good, running fine, smooth and fast. BTW, running Xposed Framework and some modules too. Great ROM! Thanks for the ROM.

[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] rickbosch:
Thanks so much for this build, really appreciate it. Could I be cheeky though and ask a favour? I'd love to not have to edit the build.prop as I don't run it rooted because some apps don't work if the device is rooted. But the model/manufacturer name is stopping me using a few apps, could you maybe update it to ASUS Nexus 7 instead of "AOSP On Tilapia"?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] RBMacGregor:
This should do it. Changed name to ASUS Nexus 7. It's also synced to rascarlo's repository as of today. http://d-h.st/GLt
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] rickbosch:
Thanks for this, unfortunately I think you changed the wrong ones, it's these two that need changing.

ro.product.model = Nexus 7

ro.product.manufacturer = ASUS

Cheers again man, ART on Tilapia was sorely needed, still weird that it's not available on the factory images.

I take a better look at it. I just swapped the aosp on tilapia in the full_tilapia.mk

How does region lock impact the Note 3?

[HTC Sensation] silentbob2003:
Hey all,

I recently sold a Sensation on ebay, and had it returned to me due to trouble unlocking it. I'm curious if you all have any thoughts.

It's running CM7 and was locked to Cincinnati Bell. The person who bought it wanted to use it on T-Mobile.

I gave him the unlock code, and when he tried to unlock it, as he described it, "the phone is still not receiving a network connection." Is there something more that needs to be done with this phone/CM7? My intuition tells me that all that needed to happen was for him to go into the settings and manually select the network. Any alternative thoughts?

Thanks!

[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
Isn't there anyone one here who would be willing to make a rom for the ME301t besides the stock ones? If we were willing to donate money to get it done? :(
[Transformer TF300T General] DaringDomino3s:
No offense, but i don't think this is the section for requests. FAQ and general discussion would be more appropriate.
[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
Oops, sorry

Sorry didn't know.
[Transformer TF300T General] DaringDomino3s:
I assumed, that's why i said something as soon as i saw it. I'm new to the posting rules here too, and i have seen that the development section is taken seriously.

Sorry about your device scenario. Im sure something will come along start a thread campaigning in a place where it wont get deleted and you may find more people that know someone wlling.
[Transformer TF300T General] Antineutrino:
Cromi-x and Geimlock are already compatible with ME301T... :good::good::victory:
[Transformer TF300T General] hardslog:
Since the ME301T is so close to the TF300 in terms of specs and because of how easy it was to make the ME301 work on CROMI or GRIMLOCK, its possible that there might only be a few minor things that need to change to make a ME301 work on a CM rom. Since there are no devs who own an ME301T we would needs some help from the community to get it to work.

Mainly we would need for someone with an ME301T to install a CM based rom and see if it will boot. From there you would need to get a logcat and send it to us so we can see if we can fix the issues that are preventing it from working.
[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
Someone tried it here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48077047#post48077047

It didn't work for me yet. Maybe you could take a look and see if I'm doing something wrong or if there's something wrong with the file. Am more than willing to help in anyway I can.
[Transformer TF300T General] hardslog:
Sounds like it isn't too far off. What I need is for someone to try and flash a CM rom and send me logs of when it is booting up etc. As a suggestion, I would try this rom: GRIMLOCK_CM_3.0 as it is the rom I am working on. It would be easiest for me to help on that.
[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
Okay, will do. I'll download and it and give it a shot. I'm not very good with the logcat stuff, lol, but I will do my best.

Well, it boots into the rom and I get a little circle which is a mouse I guess. I can get around and I can get into settings but I can't figure out how to get down to about tablet so I can get to usb debugging. If I try to adb while it's booting up adb just says waiting for device... So I can't do the logcat. Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong or a way to get adb working?
[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
Okay, I messed around and finally got usb debugging turned on. Rebooted and did this logcat. I can't get wifi turned on at all.

BTW: I love this rom without all the google crap on it. I have always hated having to run through all the setup wizard crap too. Thank you for helping with this. I'm very excited about getting this rom for my tablet.
[Transformer TF300T General] hardslog:
Try to flash THIS after flashing the rom and see what happens.
[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
Okay, I wasn't sure if you meant to flash both files one right after the other, so I flashed the rom, then the test. Sticks me at CyanogenMod animation. Then I did a clean flash of just the rom, rebooted and flashed the test, it booted, said Android is updating apps and then gets stuck at starting apps. So then I rebooted just to see if maybe that would do it but that just sticks at CM animation once again.
[Transformer TF300T General] hardslog:
I meant to flash the rom then the test.

Can you get my any logs?
[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
I don't know how to get log during boot. I tried turning on usb debugging first and then flashing the test and then tried to logcat but it just says waiting for device. Is there a specific way to get adb to work during boot?
[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
I wasn't doing adb devices first then the logcat command. Duh. Here's the logcat.
[Transformer TF300T General] hardslog:
Test # 2

[MENTION=5475940]krash1256[/MENTION]

Ok here is another one to try. Again Flash GRIMLOCK_CM first and then try flashing this one. According to the logs its possible that the wifi got fixed but the extra files I put in borked other stuff.
[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
Okay, it now boots into the rom but you still have to use the little circle as a mouse and I can now turn wifi on but it just sticks at turning on wifi.

Turned wifi off and back on now it says To see available networks, turn on wifi.
[Transformer TF300T General] hardslog:
Ok so wifi still doesn't work, but it is a step in the right direction.

I don't really understand what you mean by a little circle as a mouse though?

and again, the more logs the merrier :P
[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
Instead of being able to just touch the screen and make choices, this little round circle pops up when you touch the screen and you have to move that little circle around and tap on the circle twice to make choices. It's like using a touch pad for the mouse on a laptop. For instance, if you want to open settings you have to position the little circle on the settings button, tap twice, it opens settings, then you have to position the circle on say wifi and tap the circle again. To scroll, you have to position the little circle at the very bottom of settings, and it's a hit or miss type of thing, tap it and then move it upwards to get to the bottom, like about tablet and tap the little circle again. Does that make since? The rom is basically mouse driven instead of touch driven.
[Transformer TF300T General] krash1256:
This logcat is while it's booting and also once I'm in the rom.

Bluetooth is definitely working. I connected a bluetooth mouse and I can navigate with that instead of having to navigate with the little circle.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CorePrideX8:
I recently got the XPERIA SP(C5303) and I've been wondering whether I should root it or not.

From the information I've gathered currently, I can see a lot of people are having issues.

My main question is..

Is it worth rooting?

What are the pro's and con's of rooting this specific device (Xperia Sp)?

For example, will rooting disable the offline charging features?

What other aspect of the phone will be unavailable if I root..?

I really want to root but these problems are holding me back.

Can anyone reassure me?

The last 3 days i kept changing and trying roms and flashing kernels(i relocked and unlocked my bootloader 2 times) (most used program in my PC was flashtool :P )

But thats just extreme so i slowed down. Overall as zolaisugly said rooting helps you :D and dont mind about the small bugs that can be repaired easily :D

Also to make your decision easier you can use these apps : Titanium Backup , Greenify , Light Flow (helped me a lot) , Folder Mount , Link 2 SD !!!!

It just worth it !!!!

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] headache59:
Mere rooting of the phone does NOT give problems.

Unfortunately, with the advent of 4.3, "mere' rooting is not possible unless you install pre-rooted "custom" roms.

A few roms are simply "re-engineered" stock to allow root and recoveries - these give the least problems.

Other roms are modified, and thus have more chances of problems.

I installed this "near stock" rom: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2704312 and had no problem

Because I wanted more than stock, I am now on this (the longest I have been on one rom): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2658043

If you have your own stock in hand, try the above roms. If you encounter problems, it is easy to re-flash your stock.

Your greatest challenge would be to downgrade to 4.1.2 to root before you can install these roms.
