[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaskaran498:
Hi

I am trying to build a rom from PA sources using this guide->

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1863547

the first error occured while downloading repo using-

curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo

(+some other commands according to tutorial)

but it always came out to be corrupted and when i opened file there was error like "404 not found".

So i downloaded repo using ->

mkdir ~/bin && curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo && chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

as told in this guide-> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2464683 and it worked fine and i succesfully installed repo.

Then second problem came while creating local_manifest.xml

Since my phone is galaxy s3 i9300, i directly copied and pasted this code as OP said in first tutorial->

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project name="ParanoidAndroid/android_device_samsung_i9300" path="device/samsung/i9300" remote="github" revision="cm-10.2" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412" path="kernel/samsung/smdk4412" remote="github" revision="cm-10.2" />
<project name="ParanoidAndroid/android_device_samsung_smdk4412-common" path="device/samsung/smdk4412-common" remote="github" revision="cm-10.2" />
<project name="TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_samsung" path="vendor/samsung" remote="github" revision="cm-10.2" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_SamsungServiceMode" path="packages/apps/SamsungServiceMode" remote="github" revision="cm-10.2" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_hardware_samsung" path="hardware/samsung" remote="github" revision="cm-10.2" />
</manifest>

I put this file in .repo/

but when running repo sync, it gave error-> warning: local_manifest.xml is deprecated; put local manifests in local_manifests instead

So i deleted it for time being.

Then I ran repo sync again and this time i got following errors->

fatal: Not a Git repository: "path to my repo"/bionic.git

fatal: Not a Git repository: "path to my repo"/recovery.git

So i also deleted these two files and ran repo sync again. This time it was ok.

But I know I am in serious trouble.

I am trying to get PA 4.2.2 version using->

repo init -u git://github.com/ParanoidAndroid/manifest.git -b jellybean-legacy

Also, the tutorial by gokussjx says->

I never found any such things in manifest.xml

(Maybe because I am downloading one from 4.2.2 instead of 4.3?)

And the final array of errors I am getting->

error: RPC failed; result=56, HTTP code = 200
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: early EOF
fatal: index-pack failed

and

ror: Cannot fetch ParanoidAndroid/android_build

I have also tried deleting the whole directory and starting over again, but results are same.

Please help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edge-Case:
Are you using ethernet?

I had issues with repo stalling to a stand-still, but not crashing when using ethernet, I switched to wifi and I was able to synce. Something about tcp windowing.

Also, XML is notoriously finicky. Sometimes a cut and paste of the whole page has fixed bugs and errors for me. I didn't even have to change a single character. I think XML is crap but thats my opinion based on my experience with it. Sorry, not much help. Look around, I know the repo init command needs to be right to.

If the devs are asking you o remove code from a script, forget that sh*t, they are lazy.

What ever you do, don't keep trying the same thing over and over.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaskaran498:
Thanks for reply.

I am actually using vmware workstation 10 for this work.

Yeah i use ethernet, but how could that be problem i wonder... it just provides Internet access....

And btw there are a lot bunch of errors.....

What should i do about local_manifest.xml?? It's main device structure right?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Edge-Case:
hmm

I dont use vmware if I don't have to.

For me, the ethernet had something to do with Linux kernel and tcp windowing, not sure, but using wifi for syncing works.

Start fresh, try CyanogenMod

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_i9300

if that recipe works, then PA's recipe is probably broken or the guide you read was wrong. Otherwise, if CM fails, it is probably your set-up. I have an easy time building on 64bit Kali Linux, it comes with the SDK and a lot of tools to test your builds against or to reverse engineer proprietary drivers.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaskaran498:
well... CM worked well, though I had to install some dependencies that were not mentioned in guide before. Maybe i will be able to get PA to work also.

Currently I changed my mind and I'll be trying out to cm10.1 .

So far no errors.

I'll see how it goes and then try PA too.

thanks for help so far
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thecrazyskull:
Can i ask wich dependencies because i use same tut with same error (git repository not found error) for the Galaxy ace 2x i used local_manifest.xml from my cm10.2 device tree.

Thanks in advance.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaskaran498:
Thats an old rhing and i dont remember precisly, but i remember installing all dependencies that were listed in how to build cm tutorial (just look for it, its common) and also the ones that were listed in how to build your own ubuntu touch on ut wiki page (i just selected and installed all, missing ones got automatically installed). In the end, i remember updating my repo too.

Flash a 3.17-based ROM. If you're S-off you can also upgrade your firmware to the latest version. Then you'll be updated:thumbup:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] KK43:
I've got an MDA Vario with T-Mobile, and when I first joined T-Mobile I was given a temporary number until my old number (then with O2) switched over to T-Mobile. This was all ages ago and went well, but when I look at received text messages, it still displays the old temporary number in the 'To' field. Although it's not a big deal (when I send messages or call the correct number displays), is there a way to change / update this? Is the old temporary number somehow written into the chip? Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] lozzd:
Well, thats because the texts were "sent" to your temporary number. It really isn't an issue or something you can change, because the text was sent to THAT number, not your real one.

I guess if it bothers you that much you could get the txts re-sent to you now you have your real number back..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] KK43:
No they weren't. They were sent, and are being sent to my current number, and the phone still displays the temp one that was initially issued with my new sim. No one ever knew the temp number or sent anything to it, it's a display issue.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] lozzd:
Ah sorry I misunderstood. You could try going to Programs -> "Sim Manager" and choosing Tools -> List of own numbers

That could be the problem.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] s.gibbs:
I had exactly the same issue...I spoke to TMob customer services and they said the only way to fix this is to send a new SIM coded with the ported number. They then said that this would cost £10 as there was nothing actually wrong with the old SIM. I argued the toss and they sent me a new SIM for free which fixed the problem.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] KK43:
check my programs, don't have a sim manager, is it standard?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] lozzd:
Ah, it came with my O2 XDA Mini S.

I don't know how to change it without that. Most normal phones have an "own number" change option, (Sony Ericsson, Nokia) so if you have one of those hanging around try using that to change it and seeing if that helps. However, the other poster may be correct in saying its hard-coded for T-Mobile users.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] KK43:
Thanks guys. ran a search for sim in help, and it actually mentions sim manager, so find it weird that it's not included!! I guess I'll just have to live with it, or maybe I'll contact T-Mobile...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] KK43:
Resolved

Checked the manual, sim manager can be accessed by going into programs, contacts (you get the choice of conacts or sim manager). Surely enough, it can che changed from there, and texts now arrive with the correct number displayed. Thanks lozzd
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] lozzd:
No problems :) glad you found it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cjmcsw87:
Currently I'm on 4.1.2, Hyperdrive RLS16, Base MB1, and build number is MF1.. So am I actually on the wrong base right now ?

I'm wanting to flash one of the latest PAC nightly, so I'm thinking I need to flash the MF1 base.

Do I flash that FIRST, and then the Rom/Gapps, or how do I go about this ?

any info is appreciated, thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] deuce237bblock:
If your baseband version in about phone says I535VRBMF1 then you should be good to flash PAC. I don't think it really matters. I will find the link for the MF1 firmware.

Edit: http://invisiblek.org/d2firmware.html or

http://invisiblek.org/sch-i535/firmware/
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cjmcsw87:
No, my baseband version is I535VRBMB1

"Build number" is JZO54K.I535VRBMF1

that's kind of confusing.. after looking at the hyperdrive forum it says mb1 + Parts of MF1 so I'm guessing Its still based on mb1.

So do I need to flash MF1 before the rom, or after ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
Seems like you already on MF1, but your radio(modem) is still MB1, you could just flash the MF1 radio and you should be up to date.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cjmcsw87:
Ok. I already have the MF1 zip.. Would it be worth it to find just the radio, or should I just flash the zip I already have ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
Only full blown firmware come with modem. an upgrade only for the rom. If you flash a full firmware the down side is it going to wipe all your data/settings, the good side is you have a clean install. If you feel that your phone is running well then just flash the modem which is VRLF2 can be found here http://invisiblek.org/sch-i535/modems/VRLF2.modem.tar.md5 . An other point is sometime the newer modem is not necessary better.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
VRALF2 and VRBMF1 are not the same thing. VRALF2 is 4.0.3 ICS. VRBMF1 is 4.1.2 JB. Invisiblek stopped making modem-only zips once we moved onto 4.1.2. So VRBMB1 (4.1.2) VRBMF1 (4.1.2) firmware update about five partitions which you can easily see if you unzip the files. VRUCML1 (4.3) firmware only updates one partition because, well Invisiblek explained it best in his firmware thread. What you linked is an ICS modem-only zip. Flashing these 20 MB zips does not wipe you data. You're confusing that with an Odin flashable stock image which is at minimum 1 GB, these do wipe /sdcard.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cjmcsw87:
So now I'm confused ? do I not need to flash any of them then ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] landshark68:
You don't NEED to, but you can. Different modems/radios (baseband) seem to work to varying degrees on different devices. People have had mismatched build and baseband numbers with no ill effects. You can flash the MF1 file and see if your reception improves, stays the same, or gets worse. If your reception improves with the MF1 radios, then stick with them. If your reception gets worse, flash back to MB1. It's going to depend on which radio works best on your phone. The only thing I have read recently that seems to be a must is anyone who flashes a 4.3 (ML1) ROM seems to need the ML1 radios to get good reception.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
Just flash thid MF1 full rom with Odin and you all set. http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23134718111254196
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cjmcsw87:
Okay. Thank you all I appreciate the info

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
You don't need to flash that entire rom, it'll unroot you and put you at risk for being updated to the 4.3 base. You're only looking to update the firmware which is much easier.

Go to this link, click the latest firmware AIO link, download the mf1 firmware and flash in recovery.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1788313
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cjmcsw87:
Thanks. I have the MF1 zip already just haven't flashed it yet - I didn't know if I need to flash it before, or after the rom ? or if it even matters ? Me going to one of the latest PAC Nightlies which is a 4.3 I will need the ML1 baseband after the MF1 AIO, Correct ?

I'm a little hesitant to flash any of these before i

know

that it's exactly what I need because the phone is Verizon, but my carrier is PagePlus. From what I've read and been told flashing these sort of things has the potential to screw up my PPlus flash.

Again, Thank you for the info It's much appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
I'm not completely sure about page plus, but in this case I wouldn't even worry about the ml1 modem. It's only really needed for the 4.3 Touchwiz rom. AOSP shouldn't make too much of a difference.
[One (M7) Accessories] Ghengis042:
What's a good charger to connect to the One without putting stress on the USB port?

It might be a silly question, but I have a Samsung GS2 right now with a totally broken USB port from very frequent connection/disconnection of the charger. It *probably* won't happen on my replacement phone, but just to be on the safe side I was looking for either wireless charging or a dock of some sort, for my next device.

A lot of phones are starting to support Qi charging out of the box, but I know that can't be done on the One thanks to the metal housing. The Xperia Z series has a nice solution with (waterproof!) external contact pads that attach to a magnetic cable or desktop dock.

Does anybody make something like this for the One? Even if it has to connect through USB (and it sounds like it does...) a good dock would make sure the USB plug connects squarely to the socket and would minimize any lateral stress on the port.
[One (M7) Accessories] cannonofcourse:
Great point, I've always came close to ruining my port and ended up melting an old one (on purpose) so that it was almost a fish hook going into the port with the cable going around the back.

The only thing the iPhone got right. The charge plug that snaps in good.

What rom would people recommend for the htc one mini? I have also rooted my mini but have left it stock. Thinking of the magio rom but might wait for the 4.3 update to be incorporated into it first.
[HTC One Mini] RuffBuster:
I personally haven't tried out 4.3 yet, but I'm not impressed by reports so far, that and it seems to be in it's early stages, like when 4.2 first came out it was full of bugs for a lot of phones.

Personally Magio R3 JB 4.22 and JMZ kernel have worked pretty much flawlessly for me. With a few extra tweaks and mods it does everything i could want it to and I do a lot with my phone. 4.3 is still buggy with a lot of apps, although app devs are updating quickly. And with all that said 4.4 may be around the corner.

Hey all. I am new to xml editing and am aware that this can be done via xposed framework and such but I want to learn to do things on my own.

I was trying to simply center the status bar clock and after multiple attempts with the clock location not changing via the xml edits, I decompiled, changed only the clock text hex color value, recompiled, installed, and even that didn't change. What could be causing this, and where is SystemUI.apk reading from if not from the edited /res/layout/status_bar.xml?

The device, for reference, is a Galaxy S4 rooted running Safe Strap, but I have tried modding the SystemUI.apk on the stock/rooted slot as well as a rom on a safestrap slot.

[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phlize:
I'm trying to view photos stored on my PC with my newly acquired 16GB Tablet Z.

I already have a PS3 Media Server installed for using music & photo files on the TV via the PS3.

The tablet has connected to the PC with WiFi ok & the PS3 Media Server is showing in the My Albums option in the 'Album'

app. When I explore the folders - there are up to 5 levels for photos - the tablet only shows up to 16 sub folders and within those only a max of 16 photos.

I thought maybe it's a memory issue but it can take up to 30 seconds to load the 16 photos (say 70MB) so it is clearly accessing the pc storage.

How can I get to view all the folders & their contents on the Tablet??

I spent 20 minutes with the Sony support team & they had no solution.... hmmm, not impressed.

I hope you guys can do better!

Thanks,

Phil.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phlize:
Hmmm - OK, surely I'm not the only one trying to view photo files held on my PC with the tablet, am I??

I thought I'd try a different route.

I'm now trying to set up Windows Media Player as the server, all looks ok but the only photo file it can pick up has a sort of 'mountain' icon rather than a photo. Really weird as everything appears to be set up ok.

Any ideas out there??

thanks,

Phil.
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phlize:
Now all sorted!!

The answer is... install 'Serviio' software on the PC which is a decent server app in contrast to Windows Media Player and install 'BubbleUpnP' software on the tablet.

From their website....

BubbleUPnP is a full featured UPnP/DLNA Control Point, UPnP Media Renderer and UPnP Media Server. Play easily your music, videos and images on your phone and devices on your network (DLNA TVs, XBMC, WMP, ...), from your external UPnP Media Servers. Play your phone/tablet media to those devices.

Browse and play your local phone/tablet and cloud media from other devices (PS3, ...).

It is brilliant. Now everything works a treat.

Hi guys,

Keep in mind: I don't know what I'm doing. I only know what tutorials say, and I don't really understand the mechanics of flashing ROMs.

Problem: I'm in a boot loop. I want to go to stock, or CM11 4.4.2 . I was recovering data after flashing CM 11 4.3 (CM installer) successfully.

I have TWRP installed, but my recovery caused my phone to enter a boot loop state. I can't access the internal storage, and I don't have a micro-sd. What is the next step? I have Odin, but I don't understand what to do. As far as I know I need to boot an image file using the phone's download function?

I have these files on my desktop, but they aren't .tar:

CM11 For T-Mobile Galaxy S3 SGH-T999 [Filename: cm-11-20131217-NIGHTLY-d2tmo.zip]

Google Apps [Filename: gapps-kk-20131119.zip]

So once I'm able to acccess my sd card I'll be a able to put those files back onto my SD and install those zips using TWRP?

I'm really out of my depth and am scared of hard bricking my phone, so please be kind!

Thanks in advance!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Hellfireworks:
Don't panic! Does your phone enter Download mode and it's recognized by Odin? if so, flash the stock image via Odin, you can find the links here, read the second post on this link, it gives you detailed instructions how to flash via Odin

Make sure you're choosing the correct model, otherwise you will brick your phone!

I flashed the .tar file for the 4.1.2 JB, let Odin finishes, after that your device will be restarted, let it there for about 5-10 minutes, if it doesn't get past the samsung screen, enter to the stock recovery (vol up + menu +power), and do a factory reset, after that restart, and you should be good to go.

Hope this helps, best of luck!
