[Nook Touch General] MRXIII:
Thank you Renate.

I had never had an android device before (Don't even know what kitchen sink is) but my aim would be to achieve Lock screen and back button (I have both now) with minimal rooting.

So could I do what is listed below ?

1) Remove NookManager with all the extra things installed, and put back the backup I took

2) Then perform the minimal root explained here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2122046

3) Get the lock screen via ADB: C:>adb shell am start -n com.android.settings/.ChooseLockPin

4) Install an app to re-assign the button's actions to get a back button (Is Nook Mod Manager an app on its own?)

Thank you
[Nook Touch General] ApokrifX:
I recall, you did the latter actually. That's why you had drilled a hole in it, right? ;)
[Nook Touch General] MRXIII:
:)

How about the 4 steps I listed? Would they enable me to achieve what I want?

Thanks
[Nook Touch General] MRXIII:
Anyone?
[Nook Touch General] Renate:
Yes, to set the lock number, that am start will work fine.

To make one of the side keys a BACK key, look here:

[Moto X Q&A] Darth:
I had issues too... I ended up using the 4.2.2 version of cwm... And it worked. I'm on 4.2.2 obviously... Use the 4.4 version of cwm if you're on 4.4.

I did get the twrp for 4.4 to flash, but trying to restore my nandroid backup failed. Don't know if that's cause I'm on 4.2.2 or not though. I couldn't flash the 4.2.2 twrp. I prefer twrp, but cwm is working fine anyway.

Just my experience.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] BuQQzz:
So, I rooted, took out ads, and sideloaded some apps on my gf's kindle hdx 7" ... Its been running good for about 2 weeks . this morning she sent a text and a picture of her hdx complaining about her screen turned blue and she can't do anything. I told her to do a hard reboot. (Hold power button until everything shuts down). It worked but when she tries to play a game it'll go back into this blue screen. No words just a blank blue screen . kind of like a blue screen error on windows. Anyone else has had an experience like this ? I'll post a picture soon.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Mineturtle33:
This only happens when she tries to play games?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] GSLEON3:
That looks like an app issue. Check to see what game it is & if it recently updated. GTA San Andreas for instance turns the screen a solid black. I have had another game, don't remember which, that turns the screen solid white. Another did a yellow-ish hue. So, I don't think it is the device or anything you did.

Hello Everyone.

I have had the Samsung Galaxy Pro running rooted gingerbread for some time now and have waited for some development but it seems there is not much interest in this device. I want to try and give it a go myself. What i need is some help in creating or porting a custom recovery first. Any help is appreciated. I need someone to point me in the right direction.

Here is a step by step guide for all the newbies out there on how to use Flashtool to update or debrand their Xperia Z1

[YOUTUBE]ZfD9kT1DVz0[/YOUTUBE]
[Xperia Z1 General] adamo86:
Hi shem.

I wanted to know when I downgrade from 4.3 do I need to exclude kernel I know you have to exclude baseband to keep imei number. Also do I tick every thing in flashtool in the section where it says system,TA, baseband,kernel etc.and lastly do I need to tick no final verification?.

Can I downgrade straight to 534 or do I need to downgrade to 257 first.thanks
[Xperia Z1 General] Mohanned85:
Will check looks promising
[Xperia Z1 General] TechPurist:
Does this wipe your device?
[Xperia Z1 General] shem2409:
Not if you exclude DATA in wipe options.
[Xperia Z1 General] TechPurist:
Thanks. Do you need to be rooted to do this?
[Xperia Z1 General] shem2409:
As it says in the video... NO you don't need to be rooted. You do NOT need an unlocked bootloader either and this will NOT void the warranty :)

All you are doing is flashing stock firmware from Sony without modifications that some other user has extracted. You don't need to flash region specific firmware. This is a great way to remove carrier bloatware in your phone as well.

If you want to keep your data make sure you exclude DATA in wipe options.
[Xperia Z1 General] rpcherrera:
How can I backup my current fw? Im on. .257fw, and to root my z1, I need to downgrade to .543fw to be able to root and backup my phones TA partition.

Btw my phone is carrier locked. So if I flash a generic fw, will it be unlock?
[Xperia Z1 General] furballz:
when you downgrade on the right panel exclude wipe data. your phone is simlock-ed so i dont think it will be unlocked
[Xperia Z1 General] goldsmit409:
hi

i am new to flashing and all i want to update my z1 as of now i dont want to root it coz it seems a little complicated to me so i was updating it through pc companion no OTA yet, but its taking forever to download the firmware form the pc companion i thought of flashing ftf what i want to know is it ok to flash it n get the exact same experience as in pc companion also do i need to make backup of nytn? like TA partition and all those stuff???

right now i am on .257 wanted to root but dont wanna downgrade so i will wait a while root for 4.3

thanx in advance
[Xperia Z1 General] shem2409:
You don't need to root, unlock the bootloader or backup TA. Just go to the general section, find a list with ftf. 's, find the one you like and use Flashtool to put it on your phone. Everything is explained in the video.

Downloaded and installed MiniN3 rom. One thing I am missing is the the Voice function to snooze/stop the alarm.

I added the newest Note 3 S Voice APK through another thread but it doesn't work. I've also searched for Voice Control to make sure it was on in the settings. One thing I found odd is that the Voice Control can only be pulled up through the Search function.

So I dont know if a similiar thread like this exists but I wanted to know if theres any way to find out how many amperes are going into my Nexus 7 during charging through an AC source. I did find alot of apps that tell me what voltage the battery is putting out but I wanted to know how many amperes does my nexus charge at. It isnt always 2A so thats what I wanted to see. It isnt as easy as checking the charger with a multimeter so dont suggest that. :D

backup everything. full wipe and reflash just the rom and gapps. boot in, setup and make sure everything is working. then, if you want to stick with faux, download the latest release (005) and flash in recovery. report back.

and you've done nothing to your device? has it always not recorded video or did it just stop working recently?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] George_Mn:
I'm rooted. Actually I don't know wether it was capable of recording video, because it's a replacement device and I haven't tried recording video before updating to 4.4.2.

But since recording video is not a big deal for me, I don't know if i'm willed to go through the backup-flash-restore procedure. Propably I'll do it when PA is available.

did u test it?
[Samsung Galaxy Star] Doc_cheilvenerdi.org:
Pleas Hold on and read carefully!

Please Hold on!

No Release yet!

Releasing software is a long and hard process...

...actually my Phone is on Jellybean 4.1.2 but I don't have yet a local copy of my european archive due to hotfile.com shutdown...

...so I'm still waiting for a mirror to back it up:

it's a strong option to recover a phone from a soft brick...

So what I'm doing here now?

I build Cyanogenmod from long time ago... starting with Gingerbread 7.2 up to KitKat 11.0 (for me it's really a different beast from older ones...)...

Now i prepared a device Skeleton for my mintss phone, I populated it looking online (many thanks to Ankur850, Batman38102, Requisite0, Sakindia123, TeamRegular and many others) and followed the Cyanogenmod guidelines to build a CWm recovery...

And I built a 6.0.2.8 (tuned to Cyanogenmod 10.0) with a working Kernel, a simple ramdisk, and so on...

...But I didn't test it yet...

...I'm still waiting due to my lack of a full firmware archive...

I also tried - for fun - to build the CWM 6.0.4.5 for Cyanogenmod 11.0 (beware: just a Blind Shot)

...using the 10.0 Kernel... working kernel but wrong configuration: it lacks Selinux capabilities (Working on it right now)...

...using a ramdisk tuned to JellyBean...

...filesystem nor permissive neither enforced...

..etc...

All things which can lead to a disaster while testing...

So, please, hold on until I'll test it on my own phone...

...if everything will be fine I'll be really happy to share it for the community...

See you soon on this thread then...

...news scheduled on incoming new year...

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rom1n:
A few weeks ago my phone Samsung S4 4G (Factory unlocked) rebooted by itself, once it started all the icons which I had arranged were moved around. But the most worse problem was that the language had

changed

to some weird Russian language. After navigation with icons I finally changed the language back to English, now, since then all the websites I visit (Google, Youtube, Live.com, Facebook) go straight to that Russian language, in Mozilla, Chrome & the default browser.

My question is, is there a way that I can change the location back to English as default or something, its really getting on my nerves.

I tried turning on the GPS so it detects my locaiton, even allowed Google+ to access my location, I cleared Google Play Data/Cache, I even deleted Chrome/Mozilla/Default browser's cookies, histories and everything.

What you need do is.

Install titanium backup.

Make a backup of the search app.

Install nova launcher.

Find the search app with root explorer and delete it

After that if you're on 4.4 your stock launcher won't work coz search app is somehow connected with the launcher.

Download Google search 2.6 and install, and now you will have the Google now cards.

Make a backup of the search app, and uninstall it.

Now restore the first google search, and restore the data from the 2.6 version.

Or you can just use the 2.6 version.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vonuzu:
It seems like that if you turn on Google now on the 2.6 version, and then install the new playstore version of the Google search app, you will have the settings for Google now..
[Zooper Widget General] aejazhaq:
Hi. I had a few questions before I bought tasker. any help is appreciated.

1) will it drain battery? I need simple tasks such as notification counts for zooper and was wondering if it was hard on the battery life?

2) IS it possible and if so what would be the tasker variables/value if I wanted to display the total number of missed calls and his caller ID in a zooper widget? Can this also be done for other apps like whatsapp where I can get the sender ID and perhaps the first line of the message that they sent?

So in concrete if my friend jack called me and then sent me a text how can I create a variable that I can use in Zooper to display it as:

1 missed call from Jack

and for the text to output as:

JACK says "Where movie is playing at the club tonight?"

with the text in quotations being the message text.

[Nexus 5 General] mfenske:
So it looks like pretty much every other prepaid carrier has its own thread so I thought I'd start one for the Straight Talk folks. I picked up my N5 a little over a week ago and switched both my wife and I (also has an N5) from Sprint. We'd been with them for a little over 9 years but in their LTE migration here in Portland their coverage went from decent to terrible. Thus far I'm very happy with the AT&T service, speed is good, cost is AWESOME, and I can tether without root so I retain work email functionality. I'm very pleased with the decision to dump Sprint and couldn't be happier with the N5!
[Nexus 5 General] rochrunner:
With my ATT phone I could not tether unless I went to the high Gb plan. The unlocked Nexus, as you found, lets you do it out of the box.
