[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mertonv:
Hi..

Im planning on upgading to omni kitkat, but im guessing omni is kinda like aosp and wont have the apps and widgets that came with my tablet...

Some roms based on stock, as grimlock or cromi, have some installer to flash them back, but dont know if there is a generic one to flash the apps to an aosp or aokp based rom...

While most of the included apps are bloatware, there are a few i do would like to keep...

File Manager

Movie studio

Mynet

Polaris Office

The asus keyboard

Asus task manager widget

Asus battery widget

And possibly the asus quick settings

Anyone knows if there is a package, something like an aroma installer with all that?

I would ask for the features on the omni rom for tf300 on the thread, but im 1 post short to post on developer threads...

Thanks!

Most of the Asus stock apps require the Asus stock framework that the AOSP doesn't have. There are replacement Apps for all of those you have listed with similar functionality, but it wont be the same.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ztaxas:
Hey guys! A soon to be newcomer to the Android world! I plan to buy a Nexus 7 Gen 2 LTE to install in my dash (I have a Cruze), right now, my car can control my iPhone through the radio (I can browse, play, etc...) and it'll also display my song title, artist, etc... I can also do this with Flash Drives and I want it available through the Nexus 7, I've read many post and all the information is scattered and I need a concrete answer before I buy the Nexus 7 and what I need, as far as I can tell is:

1) Nexus 7 (derp)

2) USB OTG Cable

3) USB Y Cable (usb port is 0.5 amps and wont charge, plan to use a 2 amp charger and the other output for the music)

I need to know which Kernel and OS to use (please use full names :P) and if you could recommend me a good audio player, please do.

I also want to make a custom GUI to mimic an OEM headunit, with a Chevy bowtie background and buttons for NAV, Music, Browser, etc...

Also, I've made custom GUI's for Blackberries, I can't remember the name of the tool you used to create them, but it was really easy to use, is there a program like that one?

Hey guys

I was just playing gta san andreas (best game) and the phone was getting really warm to the touch. The back part of the phone where my fingers are resting getting seriously warm (nearly hot) and i was getting worried so i closed the game. I checked the temp of the battery and it was 43 degrees celcius. (109.4 fahrenheit). Is this ok?

note: the phone is naked (no case + screen protector). :p
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
you do realize that the average human body temp is 37C, a little under your cpu temp? its quite normal for the phone to get even warmer than yours when playing games, especially gpu intensive games. the phones safety shutdown temp is 100C, so youve got some ways to go.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheShadowFaller:
jeez thanks bud. :cool: this is actually my first andriod phone so i was just a little curious. thanks for the clarification.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
cool.

its a quad core phone, so when all four cores are active, and the gpu is being pushed, heat is expected. if your not rooted with thermal throttle off, then at 70C(if i remember right) the phone will automatically throttle because of the temp. itll reduce cpu speed to cool off the phone. if you do have root, disabling thermel throttle is always an option. then it wont reduce cpu speed. but if tou do hit the safety shutdown temp of 100C, the phone will shut diwn automatically. this is very rare. really, you need to try to get to 100C to reach it, otherwise its very rare.

Is 46 degrees dangerous? My phone goes to around 43-46 degrees while playing asphalt 8.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dop3KinG:
no
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhilipL:
Hi

It isn't dangerous, no.

It isn't ideal as lithium batteries hate the warm. Think of lithium batteries being perishable foods, they prefer the cold, in fact for long term storage they are kept in refrigerators.

If the phone was at these temperatures 24/7 then the battery would quickly deteriorate and run-times would take a dive, but for a few hours a day it is unlikely to make much difference considering most people replace these phones after a couple of years anyway.

I'm new to DNA, coming from TB. The ROM flashing / install process seems a bit different.

Please provide me a quick tutorial, or guide me to the link on the steps to installing / flashing a ROM, once it has been d/l to the PC

I am S-Off and rooted, and have TWRP installed.

I am looking at the most-recent Venom ROM, but within the OP, there doesn't seem to be specific instructions.

Thank you.
[HTC Droid DNA] .torrented:
Well, for starters "(11.26.13) Team Venom Presents ViperDNA Sense5" is the thread title which has ViperDNA (what you want)

Find the downloads and download the latest release 2.0.3, put it on the sdcard partition, boot into recovery like any other device and flash, making sure to wipe system, cache, dalvik cache, and data (not internal), then flash away...

also for future questions please post them in the Q/A section to avoid potential flames from users who get disgruntled when people post in the wrong section

ps: ViperDNA downloads are in second post.

Phone: Unlocked (AT&T) rooted Galaxy S3 running Cyanogenmod 10

My phone will not recognize my 64gb external SD card. If I take it out and put it back in, it'll say "preparing SD" for about 5 seconds and then do nothing. If I try and mount it through the settings the mount sd option is greyed out. I've tried every combination of restarting and putting it back in possible.

I'm scared I might have fried it for good while messing around trying to get it to mount as a USB. Through some miraculous kludgy combination of apps and scripts, I managed to do it, but after I disconnected it from my computer the phone would not recognize it, and now my computer (a mac if that matters) won't either. The phone recognized it fine before all this.

Again, not sure exactly how I got it to mount as USB but it was some combination of these:

Few days ago I bought the Swiftkey keyboard and even after selecting it as default keyboard, it keeps reverting to stock keyboard after sometime without even booting. Is there a solution for this?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AndyYan:
You might want to try removing the stock keyboard using TiBu/RootExplorer/etc. and leave SwiftKey as the only keyboard present.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Amtip:
Similar to this, you could also go into the Apps in the settings, and find and disable the stock keyboard. I've been using SwiftKey for around 4 years, I've faced this issue multiple times.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xygan1:
It's been a while since I last did any Android development, but it used to work fine. Now I haven't changed anything I can remember on my computer since then, but suddenly eclipse has stopped exporting Android .apk files correctly. I still have one of the old files that was exported correctly, but now when I export a file (even if it's just a blank new project) it is missing all resources and the AndroidManifest file. I have tried deleting and reinstalling eclipse and the Android SDK, but this hasn't helped.

If I change the APK to .zip and open it, the files I have now are classes.dex, and a folder called META-INF with CERT.RSA, CERT.SF, and MANIFEST.MF inside. If I do the same with my old .apk, I have these as well as resources.arsc, AndroidManifest.XML, a res folder, and an assets folder.

Any advice would be appreciated, as I've been staring at this trying to fix it for a few days now. Thanks!

Hi, I just bought two nook hd+ one for me and one for my parents as a christmas present.

Beautiful devices, the only problem is that it does not provide italian as interface language,also all the appdownloaded from the play store are in english and I can't find a way to change that. My parents reallyneed the italian language sadly they don'tspeak a word of english....

So now I'm here wondering if this cyanogenmods have the italian language.

Saluti

Luca
[Nook HD, HD+ General] felacio:
Well, I looked in the Language+input section under settings and Italiano (Italia) and Italiano (Svizzera) are in there. I was able to switch to them and then...not be able to read anything so I'm assuming it's right. haha. Going into the Play Store all of the app names are still english but their descriptions changed so, it seems like it mostly works. I believe language support is an app-to-app basis though, so if the app developer didn't include Italian tranlations then it's going to be in English or whatever native language the App is in. I'm not totally sure how the language support works. Maybe someone else with more info can fill in my blanks.

On to this ROM as a whole, I've been playing with it, coming from CarbonRom 10.2 and haven't noticed much difference but I dig it none-the-less. I've tested Bluetooth headphones and my HDMI adapter and both work just fine. If anyone is wanting me to test anything let me know.

Flashing CWM

Sorry for the bit of a newb question, but how are you getting the CWM update in there? My prior ROM flashing, I had just used the bootable SD card image that verygreen had setup. I don't know how to update the version of CWM on that image currently.

When I put CWM on my phone, I had used fastboot to install it, but I can't get fastboot to recognize my nook for some reason (adb works fine). Did you use this method (from cwm site)?:

EDIT: This doesn't work... flash_image seems to be scanning for some partition that's not available:

"error scanning partitions: No such file or directory"

adb push c:\flash_image /sdcard/
adb push c:\recovery.img /sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o remount, rw /system
cp /sdcard/flash_image /system/bin
cd /system/bin
chmod 777 flash_image
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img

I placed the files on my internal SDCard/Download and TWRP could see them and I installed.

Went here to get the zip file http://www.mediafire.com/download/c32pw4qf1l9a0mu/flash_recovery_TWRP_2.6.3.0_internal.zip

After installing the new TWRP and reboot I reset the old ROM then installed the new ROM and GAPPS.

Flashed TWRP 2.6.3, rebooted then tried to install 4.4 and got a mount/data1 error.

I'll guess I'll try with the new CWM.

Does anyone know if the new CWM can read and restore TWRP back-ups?

EDIT: rebooted then booted back into TWRP 2.6.3.

So far so good, flashing GAPPS now.

All good.
[Nook HD, HD+ General] webdroidmt:
Decided to put some extra notes here for those that only read the last page. :D Also put this in the OP.

Just a reminder regarding the newer recoveries, CWM 6.0.4.5 and TWRP 2.6.3.0, they are in flashable zip form on succulent's blogsite linked above. You should be reading his blog info anyway, so just scroll untill you see the links for those recoveries. If you run into a problem flashing the zip, one of the simplest ways to get the job done is with Flashify. Just unzip the recovery zip to get the image file. Put the image file on your device and flash it with Flashify right from within you current OS, ie; CM10.2 etc.

Regarding ART runtime: Since it's still "experimental", YMMV with the results you get. Also, Google may decide ART isn't feasible and dump it going forward.

A couple of things to note, not all gapps packages are ART compatible, the gapps I linked from 1209 do work, I'm not sure about the ones linked on succulent's blogsite from 1208. I believe the PA zero day gapps are also ART compatible.

With ART runtime, it is generally better to initiate it on a fresh rom install and before you install all of your user apps. Btw, it's normal for it to take a long time to initialize on the first reboot. I found that it generally takes a while to "settle in" and should become more fluid/speedier overtime.

Always be sure to have a nandroid backup so you can easily go back to dalvik if ART isn't your thing.

One last thing about ART, Xposed Framework does not yet support it. It will appear to work but it does not. Matter of fact, with Xposed installed on your device, it will revert ART runtime back to Dalvik. Since I love using Xposed, this has kept me from using ART except to test it.

CWM and TWRP backups are not compatible, probably never will be unless some third party dev figures something out. :)

Unlocking your sim mode is very easy in HTC Sprint One

Steps To Follow:

1- Unlock Your Bootloader (Google around)

2- Open your dialpad and dial " *#*#4636#*#*

3- Tap on Phone Information

4- You will see a black screen with lots of things. Scroll down and find " Set Preferred network type "

5- You will possibly see CDMA+evdo or something like this.

6- Click on it and scroll down or up to find GSM only.

7- Turn off the radio and turn the radio on after 30 secs.

8- Restart your device and you are DONE!

I am having problems installing the 4.4.2 update via OTA. I am on rooted 4.4 android KRT16S build.

I have rooted.

I have installed xposed framework.

I have installed twrp recovery.

OTA update stucks on twrp and nothing happens.

I have tried the following things :

1) Uninstalled xposed framework and tried installing 4.4.2

2) flashed the zip instead of OTA, twrp says failed.

3) enabled survival mode in superuser app.

4) I have also tried flashing KRT16S first which installs successfully on twrp and then 4.4.2 which again fails.

My point is starting this thread is to know exactly what to do when an OTA updates comes so that you can successfully update to the latest android version and also retain your data back.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
OTAs are meant only for 100% stock.

The fact that they can occasionally be installed on a non-stock ROM (or when using a non-stock recovery) is purely happenstance - not evidence that anyone should have an expectation of a similar success on a device with arbitrary modifications.

It really is just that simple.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neo1691:
Which means, no matter what, I'll have to start from scratch again? Install 4.4 images with data wipe and then install 4.4.2 via OTA or flashable zip, followed by all customization and data restore by TB??

Only solution?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
There is no need for a wipe, you can also install boot.img and system.img by fastboot and root your device again afterwards. In that case you will keep your data.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bftb0:
Hmmm. By that do you mean a nandroid restore of /data only on top of a fresh (full wipe) install and OTA update? That's a bit unusual - if any changes occurred in the total count or naming of pre-installed system .apks, that could lead to UID mismatch problems. Also, sometimes OTAs do removal/cleanup of things in /data ... you ought to look in the updater-script (OTA .zip file META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script) to see if any of that is going on. That's why both AnDiSa and I suggested methods that leave the data in place during the OTA update.

I guess what I am saying is that what you are proposing *might* succeed but it's a little bit nonstandard. (It prevents the OTA process from cleaning anything up in /data. Admittedly, that's a little unusual, but I think I have observed it in the past.)

Whatever you do, take a full Nandroid of where you are now; if things get screwed up you can always go back to your current setup and try a different approach.

Thanks a lot for all your invaluable inputs. Too much for me to work on now. I'll report what happens.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
There should be Bootloader.IMG and another tgz. If you extract this tgz you will find boot.img, system.img, data.img.
