[Nexus 7 General] urbanman2004:
I want to manually flash the Kit Kat update by downloading it the zip file and installing it through TWRP. I'm fairly new to the Android customization side, but I have caught up pretty easily knowledge-wise. My device is rooted with Scott's Cool Rom and Faux123 Kernel installed which I plan on removing and going back to Stock because I keep getting random restarts for no apparent reason while using my Nexus. Before I start the process of flashing 4.4, I need some advice from the community to reassure that I am going about my objective the right way.

List of Steps

1) I will create a nandroid backup of my device (just in case something goes wrong).

2) I will do a factory reset (wiping data, cache, and dalvik only) to remove Scott’s Rom. This should also remove root.

3) I will then set my device to developer mode.

4) I will copy 4.4 update to my SD.

5) I will log into recovery mode and flash install the update from there.

If there is anything I am missing, please let me know. Also if you have a recommendation for rom or kernels I can try please let me know. I'm thinking about flashing the USB Rom that enables charge while using other USB devices thru OTG simultaneously.

Any helpful advice is welcomed and encouraged.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 7 General] andrew9292:
I dont think many can visualize what you are trying to do starting from step 2...

See, you cant remove a rom without wiping system.

Yet after removing rom you wanna go boot up android and enter developer mode? What rom will be left?

Maybe what u meant was resetting rom?

Basically to return to stock or flash a stock image, this is a well known method as it's a complete clean flash:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1907796

1.If you dont have the intention of deleting your rom(dirty flash), then you can just execute steps 1,2,4,5.

2.If you have the intention of removing your current rom(clean flash), you have to follow the link above.

Also, is your USB ROM timur's usb rom? Afaik the latest release of that is 4.2.2 base...

For 4.4 i'd recommend Purity rom + franco r76 as of today. I dont think it has usb host charging mode tho. Good luck!

Hello everyone :)

I've got p5110 with new 4.2.2 rom (xeo). I have installed also root and cwm. That wasn't problem. But the main problem was looking for kernel cos i want to overclock cpu on gpu on stock rom :D So i found this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2302663 but there are few questions...

Which files I install? :eek: I know that zip file in cwm but there is the second one called proprietary-vendor-samsung.zip for JB >= 4.2 (stock 4.2.2, CM 10.2) . I dont understand which file i should install first... :/ I want single boot on stock rom.

Thanks for all :) !
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kt-Froggy:
Just read the OP carefully, it has the instructions, and they are very simple:

1. Boot into the recovery.

2. Flash the kernel (blackhawk-next-kernel-x.y.z-p51xx.zip) -- replace "x.y.z" with the version you need.

3. Immediately after that (do NOT reboot!) flash the proprietary Samsung binaries (proprietary-vendor-samsung.zip).

4. Reboot.

You don't need to worry about all the dual-boot stuff.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Qosmio46:
I think I understand now :) there is a main file with kernel and with this zip comes some binary files in catalogue (that's what i saw) i need to install this in cwm after this install this second zip with no re booting. In this second zip are files which are managed these from first zip with kernel? Thats way i need to install these both one by one. Seems legit :D thank you very much :) i hope that will work :)
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kt-Froggy:
It will, don't worry. :) I have been using this kernel for quite a while on my P3113, went through many version upgrades. The best kernel for this tablet, hands down!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
that would be because in your area there is a better hspa+ connection than a lte connection. if you try forcing lte in that kind of situation, it could lower your battery life due to bad signal.

[HTC Wildfire S] thehacka1:
Preamble

I've been working on a AOSP port for the HTC Wildfire S. After 5 month of work this is the first release of the ROM. Neither AOSP is stable yet nor the HTC Wildfire S (Marvel) port is complete. Most of the features are working but it still needs bugfixing and polishing. We would like to improve the code and get as much as possible upstream.

I have to thank alquez who ported CM7 for the HTC Wildfire S. His work was a good starting point for CM9. Also thanks to Kevinjoa who was working with me on this ROM. Kevin we finally made it!

I also have to thank MoltenMotherBoard and MaclawStudio working on CM9 for the Liberty. We worked together with those guys to get CM9 going. We will continue our collaboration in future.

Information

This ROM has been developed on a HTC Wildfire S A510e (European version). I suggest to use baseband version 47.23a.35.3035H_7.53.39.03M or newer. Others should work too.

Reporting Bugs

If you want to report bugs please read THIS HOWTO first. Please try to provide logs if you see errors (logcat and dmesg). If you don't know how to do that check google or ask people here to help you. Don't contact me directly.

I know I asked this before but every since I updated to 4.4 my gmail sync has been painfully slow. Once in a while I'll get an instant notification other times I'll have to wait upwards of 5 minutes for it to come through. I didn't have this issue on 4.3. All I noticed when I checked the sync settings is that the sync icon was stuck on gmail and I had to manually refresh it. Does anyone have any suggestions. I already cleared the data and rebooted but there is no change.

Mine Is Just Slow To Sync

My issue is similar, but different. My Gmail app on my phone is not syncing (or at least it takes forever) to sync with the Gmail itself.

If I delete 10 messages from my phone (Gmail) then go to a computer and visit my Gmail account via a web browser, the messages are still there.

I'm running HTC One. 4.4 Kit Kat Seems to have started around the time I upgraded. I also have a Google Apps domain, not straight Gmail. But we all know Google Apps mail is just Gmail with your own domain name.

Anyone else having this issue?

DISREGARD, I RESOLVED BY: FORCE STOPPING MAIL APP, CLEAR DATA. THEN RECONFIG CLIENT/APP.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] cynicwithin:
This is kind of last ditch effort to return my phone back to it's stock firmware (i545 verizon). I successfully rooted my phone after first receiving it and had no problems. The OTA update to 4.2.2 came out and I accidentally pushed install as the prompt just showed up a split second before I was about to press a button. Now it won't update to 4.3 OTA and it constantly driving me crazy with messages to update.

I tried to use odin to flash the stock firmware and it keeps telling me that the PIT partition failed. I found the appropriate pit file and it still failed. I'm looking to see if you guys have any ideas before I just throw the phone in the garbage and buy a new one. Thanks.

I just got the MDA Vario, and when I tried to connect it to the PC for the first time (after installing ActiveSync and being prompted to connect the device) I got the blue screen of death. Ever since, as soon as I connect I get the screen and there’s nothing I can do.

When you say stock, are you talking Sense-stock or Google-stock? That will definitely make a big difference. GPE won't have sense stuff in it.

Google Stock
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Th3Bill:
Unfortunately, only option with that would be the Nocturnal if you're looking for "pre-done". You could always download both, diff them and see what was changed and undo whatever you don't like with the ROM. I often do that so that I can have all the features I want but with the base that I want. Currently I'm running SuperOneK that I played around with a little.

Hey MIME owners

it seems like wherever i read everyone only got the ghost and i was wondering why?

i thought the Feather was lighter, thinner and protects as well (which is why it costs more)

is that not the case? because i prefer a-bit thicker if it protects better (the ghost that is)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] fascinate:
I would say this: If you'll be using a case, go with the feather. I just put the Diztronic case on my Nexus 5 with ghost and the corners immediately started to lift. If you aren't planning on using a case, go with the ghost. It has rounded edges which will help prevent chipping.

[edit]Although I haven't confirmed that the feather works with cases. I believe I read it in one of the Mime main threads.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] gadget_lova:
Cruzerlite TPU cases can work with mime ghost without lifting the corners:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2512135&page=17

It's strange, because my SGP steinheil, which is plastic screen protector, has it's corner lifted when using those cases. Other SGP cases work fine though.

I think it's actually correlated to how precise you installed the screen protector. Mine is a bit more inclined to the left, thus my bottom left corner is lifted when using cruzerlite tpu case.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] fascinate:
Oh ok. Then I think it depends on the tightness of the case. Since depending on which side I slip first into the case, the other side is where the corner starts to lift.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] psy_spy:
I have ordered MIME Ghost glass. I too had the same question before buying. I sent them an email. this is their reply:

[Nexus 5 Accessories] obi1jabroni:
Xposted from diff thread:

Got my Mime Feather to replace the defective, Glas.tr. Early impressions:

Feather is much thinner, easier to apply, seems more oleophobic and has no bubbles (when naked). Can't compare the smoothness bw the two but it seems the Feather is just slightly better, maybe its because of being more oleophoic.

When i put the Cruzerlite bugdroid case on, the Feather right corner does have a bubble. IMO, the Feather is much better and cheaper than the Glas.tr
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Caniv:
well it seems like some people also said they put the Feather on perfectly, because u can actually pull the Diztronics a-bit to be ABOVE the ghost.

also im wondering what if u got the Diztronics and you put it on and THEN put the mime on, and align it using that?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] buzzmcfly:
i used feather and its a perfect fit with the official bumper case, if Diztronics is the same as the official one maybe that would work:fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 5 Accessories] netsyd:
I would say this -- if you're at all (and I mean even the slightest bit) rough with your device, don't even consider the feather.

First off I was trying to push out some corner bubbles I had when installing the protector, I pushed with my thumbnail, not stupidly hard ... and cracked the edge. I thought it was a fluke, ended up doing the same dammed thing on another corner knowing I couldn't press hard. I sent an email to Mime, explained exactly what happened and they sent me a code for the Ghost glass. As I was waiting for the new glass to arrive I somehow chipped the glass again, this time about 1/2 inch from the top of the screen. I have no idea what caused that one.

For the record I've had 2 other devices with Mime Ghost, and an iPad Mini with a BodyGuardz Glass screen protector that have no issues. Personally I think the feather is just to thin for its own good.

See attached. That's one week with the feather glass. I have the Ghost on there now. I'll definitely buy from Mime again .. but I know better than to get the feather next time!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] prateek2888:
Pardon my ignorance, I ordered a ghost. I just wanted to know if these glass protectors provide any other advantage over plastic ones except the touch feel that they give
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Philly Jim:
I'll just leave it at this. Once you go glass you can never go back
[Nexus 5 Accessories] netsyd:
This a thousand times over.

The benefits are a bit hard to put in to words. It's more than just the touch feel. There's a solidity to a glass protector that you can't get with plastic. There's an "invisibility" that comes with glass - even with the clearest plastic protector, you still know it's there. The glass protectors also stick better in my experience. You can toss the phone in your pocket without worrying about an edge lifting up.

Again, it's really hard to explain how big a difference it is, but as Philly Jim said ... once you go glass you can never go back. The first time I bought one, I really questioned my sanity. Now, I don't even consider the other options and I factor the glass into my device cost.
