I would still love to see PA's Halo as part of this most awesome ROM. Are there any plans to include it in the future?

Same goes for PA's per-app dpi scaling (tablet mode for settings / gmail / etc.)... or is this currently possible and I just don't realize it?

I tried PA but I like my setup in SlimROMs so much better, but I am torn because I really want those 2 features.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD1056:
Hello all,

I have a lighting fixture for my aquarium that has built in wifi connectivity via an Ad Hoc connection and an Android app. I can see the SSID on my Galaxy S3 (Cm 10.2) but it won't connect. I cannot even see the SSID on my Nexus 7 (2012 - stock Android 4.4.2). Both devices are rooted. I understand Google removed support for Ad Hoc connections, but with a rooted device it's supposed to be easy to enable? Haha, easy!

The frustrating thing is I borrowed a friends iPad and it connects without issue!

So how do I get my Nexus 7 to see and connect to the Ad Hoc device???

The thing is that when i receive a call and the nicestart prog is enable it just rings but i cant see who is calling because of the password login...

Is there a way to solve this problem?

Thanks in advance :)
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] zerimar:
I've never used NiceStart but I guess that this piece of software is putting your unit into some sort of sleep mode and the only way to wake it up is by typing in the password.

Try disabling it first and see if PhotoContacts works probperly. I've been using PhotoContacts Pro now for about a year without any problems.

Can't say that I agree here. Maybe because I'm running fOmey's awesome rom, but the last thing I'm thinking of is how "bad" the batt life is.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Brendo:
Easily get 2 days. You'll see plenty of others around here reporting similar. Even with stock. Battery life increased with more recent versions of firmware and especially gear manager. And last longer with motion setting disabled
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] maximus96:
Are you using custom faces with watch styler or one of the stock faces? I think WS eats more battery but I find the many faces worth it. I plug in my phone every night so I have no issues with charging the watch
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Brendo:
watchstyler - especially if using second hand drains battery

Yeah, can easily get two days, and the watch charges extremely fast so that isnt an issue for me:)

people are complaining about gear's battery life and tells us about how great 'pebble' is. truth is, it sucks balls. either you are getting a smartwatch (gear) or a watch with smart extensions (pebble).

i don't see an issue with the gear's battery life, as the things i can do on it out beats any other "smart"watch.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] gingerdude:
The problem is most of the"professional" reviewers have probably only used it for a few hours and then only when it first came out, it's a shame they aren't more diligent.

That's a fair question. No, I'm not using any custom faces.

I just installed Cyanogenmod 11 on my Xoom Stingray 4G. The Xoom is running great, but I have no data service. After setting up the new partition , I tried installing OmniRom and Cyanogenmod 10.1 and EOS4. With EOS4 I had 3G service, but no 4G. With everything else, I have had no service at all. What am I missing? I had perfectly functional 4G before the change, but on a barely operational tablet.

Radio Help, Por favor...

Update to that last post... I've had a very stable Omnirom and Cyanogenmod 11 running on my Xoom Stingray, but have never been able to get 4G/LTE to operate. I've done just about all of the reading up on flashing radios and such that I can handle, but I still can't figure out what I need to do. Is there someone who is familiar with Bigpart Roms that can give me some insight? Does a radio just need to be flashed in recovery? Why did I get 3G with EOS4 but nothing else?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TechFiend22:
Yikes! I have SGS3 Sgh-T999 model, rooted with TWRP and clockwork mod. Running a JB Liquid Smooth ROM at 4.2.2. I was updating to get the 4.4.2 OS. I backed everything up thoroughly then proceeded to enter TWRP recovery mode. I factory reset (succeeded), wiped cache (succeeded)m wiped Dalvik (succeeded). I then flashed the exact ROM and gapps for my device (cm-11-20140105-NIGHTLY-d2tmo.zip and gapps-kk-20131119.zip) with both attempts failing. I tried to reboot and a message came up saying TWRP needed to repair my super user permissions or soething like that. I opted 'yes" and thus began the endless loop that goes like this: vibrate-SGS3 splash screen with the white letters-TWRP splash screen-black screen-2 vibrates-SGS3 splash and so on.

I cannot enter recovery mode. I

can get into download mode

only if I am hooked up to the computer with Odin open and phone off. Then I can step into download mode. I cannot however get anything helpful to occur after that. I have tried flashing the stock ROM file using Odin. That is all I know to do at this point. Odin does not give any indication it is flashing in the colored boxes on top (green, pass/fail, etc...). When trying to flash it checks MD5 successfully then gives a "Leave CS" message followed by a "All Threads Completed (succeed 0/failed 0)" message

I am totally stuck. I think my original mistake was not updating TWRP and Clockwork to the freshest version prior to flashing. My second was trying to flash gapps after ROM failed. Then rebooting after both failed. I need help desperately as I am heavy looking for a job and that is my connection to the world.

Does anyone have any sage advice or tutorials on how to get things running again? Thanks in advance for your help!

[MENTION=983303]hhp_211[/MENTION]. Can you marry a Devil kernel with a cwm 6046 to try on the cm11 1/09 ROM? Is it a big project or is it pretty easy?
[Fascinate General] hhp_211:
I hope in the near future to be able to these type of things,,, still learning it.

What issues are you having?

Switching the recovery portion out to be cwm with devil will have no effect on how a kernel portion operates.

They do work independent of each other but have to be installed together on the fascinate ( which is different from most every other phone)

.
[Fascinate General] kb8no:
It took me a long time to figure out how the kernel and recovery worked on this device and re-learned it several times til it sunk in but now I get it.

I got all those media errors with twrp/Devil. Maybe the SD card trick you proposed will fix that. Then I got some crashes and no sounds worked so I bailed.

My assumption was that it was twrp and not Devil. The dev in his OP is very particular about using cwm on his ROM. I don't know why they both shouldn't work as long as you have the right ones. Seems that is how it works in other ROMs. Dev called the recovery issue a "debacle" I believe and sounded frustrated. There should be a story here. Why wouldn't twrp flash ROM?

So that's why I'm thinking Devil/twrp is an issue. Have you tried it?
[Fascinate General] hhp_211:
My understanding of the "recovery debacle" is the fact up having to go through the exact process is to get the partitioning set correctly.

Much of the the same reason why on [MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] cm11 that you had to switch over to a certain TWRP recovery 1st, because he compiled his cm11 with the TWRP.
[Fascinate General] kb8no:
I can get that. Are you saying first flash is about correct partitioning and not correct recovery? That's a reoccurring Fassy theme! So once it is flashed and partitioned correctly and then the ROM flashed, shouldn't we then be able to use any recovery, like a 4.4 compatible twrp?
[Fascinate General] Unjustified Dev:
You can expect to to change recovery by flashing boot.img we don't have a recovery partition.

Boot image break down

Boot.img contains

* ramdisk

*zImage/Kernel

* recovery ramdisk

We load recovery from boot due to samsung old partition layout

Kernel is inside boot.img this isn't the issue

The issue is the ramdisk.

Some roms contain their own init.blahblah.rc and without it you will get soft-bricked due to certain things not getting initialized and not everything might work and two your ramdisk also contains your init files flashing an incompatible version will soft brick your device due to some things not correctly getting permission . This is the best I can explain it not really a kernel dev or what not so this is the best info I can provide from knowledge .

Newer phones layout

Recovery Partition is separate meaning you can load any recovery in theory without having to be forced to change the Kernel and all ramdisk files which is not good for this reason I always provided zips for my roms with the option to have twrp or cwm because we can't change recovery separately

Boot partition is separate boot.img and kernel never get touched by recovery which is great because you can have no recovery and it still will boot up.

In theory we can flash just recovery such as that twrp zip but it fails for some odd reason I can't understand . TWRP inject script should allow us to flash recovery ramdisk into boot.img so we can have any recovery we want. I may work on getting it to work but for now my fascinate is soft bricked. Also our boot partition is small twrp isn't always fitting in some roms for this reason I build cwm
[Fascinate General] kb8no:
Its so complicated. Thanks so much for taking the time to explain. So how do we get Devil kernel into 1/9 cm ROM with all that confusion? I like twrp but I want Devil so I can get some extra settings.
[Fascinate General] hhp_211:
by flashing this:

3.0-kernel-Devil_TWRP_4.4.2_12-29-2013-fassy.zip

http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319202534
[Fascinate General] kb8no:
I flashed it and as I said I had to revert as did the other guy. Have you used it yourself? Should I try again?
[Fascinate General] ztotherad:
the only problem with that kernel is getting twrp also. i think it'd be better to be able to flash the recovery/kernel separately, but like UDev said, the kernel/recovery/ramdisk makes it difficult because we don't have a separate recovery partition. unless we do more partitioning of the system/data/cache/datadata and create a separate recovery, but i don't think we can without some major work.. which sucks. we pretty much need to copy from another phone, if it's been done anyway. i know the Nexus s can flash recoveries separately, but i don't know how their partitions are laid out exactly.
[Fascinate General] Unjustified Dev:
It's only compatible for so long I mentioned why. These boot.img aren't really the the best solution due to changes that make it not compatible please guys go read on what a ramdisk is and what all this stuff is like init and stuff so you can understand why

Part of ramdisk is in system/core/rootdir in source code other parts come from your device tree . It's not like this code stays the same not even in the device tree it needs to be changed to fix things or give permission to new things or initialize things like sensors snd it runs more like wifi , bluetooth , etc. This boot.img was only made to allow you to get on 4.4 since recovery is in boot.img you had no choice due to recovery being incapable of installing new 4.4 since set permission is gone it's set metadata now . Compatibility with this boot.img is broken now and I wouldn't install it.

---------- Post added at 12:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 AM ----------

Actually we have one it's just not used due to how the device is made. I think it's a bootloader limitation based on how it was set up. I always imagined it was possible to load recovery there but I don't think the block is active or something to be used it just exists
[Fascinate General] ztotherad:
I wish there was a way to check to see if it's active without the possibility of bricking the phone. there's gotta be a workaround, but I don't know if that's even possible.
[Fascinate General] Unjustified Dev:
it's not made to be active this phone has a mtd partition I have no idea how it's set up but recovery is dead. Just kernel , cache , system , and datadata partitions are active.
[Fascinate General] ztotherad:
so really that recovery is only activated within the boot.img
[Fascinate General] Unjustified Dev:
Yep that's how it's read. Stock recover is different we had revovery .bin this was made to allow custom ones to work its how it loads it is different from stock. I think that was developed by kush. Brick your phone hard enough you will see cwm4 you installed on stock
[Fascinate General] ztotherad:
damn. that just goes with what Adam Outler created "the unbrickable mod" for the fassy. I'd love to do that with my phone and then try and flash a nexus s bootloader/kernel/etc and see if something loads. Hell, I'd even like to try it on my other fassy that is bricked/whatever to see if it fixes it. lol. I just don't know how to use a welder at all.
[Fascinate General] hhp_211:
Hey skepticmisfit and others too ,

I've seen you and a couple others prefer the aokp ics ms6 over other newer roms.

What do you feel it's doing that's hands down better?

Also...

What are its quirks?

What do you use your fassy for the most [surfing, gaming, music, mixture, other. ]

Can you list out what bugs you in newer Roms the most

I ask because I've been working hard on some tweaked settings in DU 4.4 that have reality improved the speed and stability for me and they should work for all the 4.4 Roms,,,

And I want to get some initial response to make sure I'm heading on the right path

Hopefully I'll have these tweaks in the next few days.

Whoever is ready or able to test let me know.

————— ————— —————

For me 4.4 has been good overall,,,

The hanging black screen on receiving a phone call has to be issue numero uno! drove me nuts!!!

and very slow at switching tasks ,

and slow looking up anything in the interweb,

Not to mention,, generally within a few hours from a fresh boot will cause a hang/reboot

[ or any semi heavy multi tasking it will happen faster]

So I've put a lot of hours into researching and finding out what certain settings effect and I've compared and made a spreadsheet if settings from ROM's that were popular or considered fast,,, and the results have been extremely positive

.
[Fascinate General] skepticmisfit:
oh man.. well... specifically with AOKP, it's really stable and really fast a lot of the time. scrolling and opening apps is way faster than in JB and KK roms. gaming is also a bit better too. benchmarks, though they don't usually matter on phones, actually do better with an ICS rom than in JB.

some quirks with AOKP are that built in Wi-Fi tethering doesn't work and that only like two flashlight apps work (I use tiny flashlight). stock torch is broken.

Hi there,

I bought a Sony Xperia Z1 from kijiji (like graiglist) and when I came to unlock it, I released I couldn't. After going to the service menu, I realized that there are no attempts left!

I called the carrier Bell and they said they cant unlock it since it has not been 90 days since the day of purchase.

Is there anything I can? If I unlock the bootloader, will it reset the counter?

Thanks!
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xasbo:
No, sim locking is unrelated to the bootloader lock. I would look in other forums and Google at large, this isn't an Xperia issue and someone else will have run into it.

As for your problem I'm not sure what you could do at this point. Best way is to contact Sony CC.

I recently got a C6606 T-Mobile branded Xperia Z. It is network unlocked though I am on T-Mobile. It is running the 10.3.1.E.0.191 Android 4.2.2 factory ROM.

Got a couple questions.

Firstly, I would love to root it. Nothing seems to be working. From my reading rooting this ROM is hit or miss. Any tips?

Second, I am assuming the stock ROM is odexed.

I would also like a camera app or addon that will give me full manual mode on the camera. Any out there that will work on a stock ROM?

If I change my customization to that of the international C6603 and install a 4.3 ROM will I lose the LTE and have to use the *#*#INFO#*#* menu to re-enable it or will I be SOL?

Any good guides on installing ROMs? Can I install a custom ROM with a locked bootloader?
