Thanks a lot for the how to. I'm just "syncing" (don't know if this is how it is said, just entered the command that downloads 10Gb) and it is doing the job! Don't know why this has only 5 "thanks", I found it very useful!!

JUST ONE QUESTION!! If I type breakfast tapioca it gives me "no such file or directory" error. If I type "tapioca_ss" it gives me no problems. Is it right?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NSDCars5:
In your home folder, look in cm11/devices. If there's a folder called tapioca_ss, then you need to use tapioca_ss. If there's a folder called tapioca, then you need to use tapioca.

Yes, this guide is very useful, but unfortunately, you can only thank a post once (I did)! :D
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] phn1993:
Yes, I noticed!! Thanks!!

One last question (new it's true lol): I get "make" errors (ERROR 1) when compiling audio drivers. I don't know why, but I'm trying to repeat the how to as root!
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NSDCars5:
I don't think you should do this as root; I've seen some guides that say doing so might deter the building process.

And you're welcome. :)
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] phn1993:
I finally decided to repeat all the guide! I think I've just found the problem!! Thanks again :D

I recently bought a Holox BT GPS receiver from Ebay. I also bought Medion mapping software. My main problem is the bluetooth connection. They both recognise each other but after I put in the pin number the GPS receiver stops blinking and seems to lose the connection. This also happens after I tick the serial port box.

My phone is an XDA Mini S. IF anyone can offer any help I would be most grateful.

Many thanks in advance

Had this problem with mine as well. Turned out to be a bad GPS unit. I hooked up a friend's Rikalne and it paired perfectly. I took it back to the store I bought it from and after about 30 minutes of them trying to make it work, they finally just gave me a new one.
[Sony Xperia L] Trompipan:
Hi everyone!

I've just bought my Xperia L and I'm very happy with it.

I rooted it but I have 3 problems:

1) There isn't a reboot option. Or is it only in my phone? The only option that gives when long pressing the power button is to power off, plane mode and cap. screen.

2) When I start the phone after turning off, some app icons disappear, is this because I moved the apps to the internal memory?

3) I use the app "Clean Master" to keep my phone fine... but when it suggests me to move an app to the SD and I click on the option, the only option that appears is for moving it to the internal memory. Is it impossible to install apps in the SD?

Thank youuuu!
[Sony Xperia L] uremytoy:
AD 1, no its not only for you, its for everyone that there is no reboot option

AD 2 try upgrading to 4.2.2

AD 3 unfortunatelly nope u can only do that using link2sd or u can use trick that will make think that ur sd card is ur internal storage

Root your phone and install Xposed & Gravitybox.
[Sony Xperia L] Macmol:
1 -> that's normal. Root your phone and install Xposed and 'Advanced Reboot Menu'

2 -> That's a bug in the 4.2.2 Firmware 0.26. Update to 1.12.

3 -> read the last post ;)
[Sony Xperia L] Trompipan:
How can I update to 1.12? Everytime I enter the update section, the phone searches for new updates and keeps telling me that I have the latest software. :(
[Sony Xperia L] Trompipan:
Gravitybox does not exist in the play store!

The only "Gravity box" app is a game that seems to have the periodic table of elements.

Xposed additions do you mean? I installed it and it hasn't got any option referred to the power button... :eek:

Then download the module within the app. Gravitybox or 'advanced reboot menu'. Activate it and reboot.

Its not available in Play Store. Google 'Xposed' and download the 'Xposed Installer' (apk, root req.) On the same site look for 'Browse modules' and search for 'GravityBox [JB]' Install it too and activate it in the Xposed Installer app. After an reboot open Gravitybox and click on 'Power Tweaks' there's an option for 'Advanced power menu'. There are a lot of other tweaks in the app to try.

[Sony Xperia L] Trompipan:
I tried using PC Companion and it also tells me that I have the latest software... maybe it's because of my location.

I'm from Argentina and my XL knows it... that might be the reason, I believe... but I bought it without any carrier.

Thanks anyway! Now I'm going to try the Xposed thing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] chocodough:
I still have a MDL bootloader and have been running clean GE ROMs since they came out. I really want to try out AT&T's latest MK2 4.3 official ROM, but it seems no one has just released a clean flashable in CWM rom like I have seen in past releases.

Is it because most people have to use Safestrap now with the newer bootloaders and have no use for flashable MK2 ROMs anymore?

I don't want to upgrade my bootloader by just putting on MK2 the normal way, I want to keep the ability to flash ROMS, but really want to try out a stock MK2 so I can try out the Samsung stuff again.

Sure there are a ton of MK2 ROMs in the forums here, but they are heavily modded with stuff I really don't want. I just want a clean ROM without anyone's MODs except for the usual of removal of the protections that would prevent me from reflashing a different ROM in the future.

Can anyone please point me in the right direction?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
It's mostly because we already got a root method, so nobody's seen a purpose in putting together a flashable one to experiment on. I'm sure it can be done using the same method which the MF3 stock ROM was made, but someone just has to be willing to flash back to completely stock and run some terminal commands.

EDIT: Found a system dump, just nobody has compiled it into a flashable zip. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47943805&postcount=760

Maybe someone could look at it.

EDIT2: StockUp has a rebloat addon if you want AT&T apps, and comes with all the normal Samsung things. It's probably your best bet. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2498244
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] chocodough:
Hopefully a DEV has their original laying around somewhere. :)

Of course I would prefer to have the KNOX stuff removed. I'm not sure what files to remove to do it myself.

I've seen some ROMs similar to what I am looking for in the Tmobile section here, but they still have stuff like modded or replaced kernels and of course all the Tmobile stuff in them. Would be nice to have the actual AT&T version without KNOX.

Hopefully that wouldn't be asking too much. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] chocodough:
Ok thanks, I'll look into that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
StockUp has KNOX removed and is based off the AT&T version, and like i said has that rebloat zip with AT&T apps. All you have to do from there is get a 4.3 kernel
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] gb.sn:
This one? have you read it?

MF3 system and boot images, no bootloader so you are safe. Need custom kernels, due to mf3 rom expecting mf3 bootloader and kernel.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2378946

Personal suggestion, don't try the MF3 and stay with GE, update it to 4.3 or 4.4 if you want, because you won't be losing anything going touchwiz and instead will be adding a ton of crap. Even after debloating you will still end up with a ton of crap.

ps. lovely edit system the forum has...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] crash822:
Upgrade bootloader? It seems like a downgrade if it restricts what you can flash. Have you tried the international roms? Sure it won't have the at&t stuff which most people don't want but it'll have the samsung stuff you seem to want. Make sure to flash lokidoki after installing international rom or install an at&t kernal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
He was looking for MK2, not MF3.

He said he doesn't want to upgrade bootloader, that's why he's looking for a loki 4.3 stock.

Hey everyone, need some help and been searching for hours for an answer. I have a rooted Galaxy s4. I have apps that are installed to my external SD through the system options and I also have used folder mount to transfer some apps to external SD. I'm guessing that these are hidden files on my external SD card. I want to swap my current 32GB card for a newer 64GB card. How can I create an exact copy of my external card? I tried copying and pasting all my contents from my external sd but it didn't transfer everything because my apps weren't there upon installing the new SD. How to I copy the entire contents of the old 32GB external SD to the new 64 GB external sd? Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] DeadlySin9:
How did you copy them? If you plug in the phone over USB then it won't show all files on the SD card in the phone, you either have to put it in it's own USB reader or get the USB Mass Storage app to mount it

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] helpiscrewedup:
Hey guys,

I screwed up big time. I used a chinese application to root my phone, and it worked, but everything was in chinese. As this is a new XDA account I can't link the tutorial I followed, but it was from youtube by Andre Hebra. The app worked and rootchecker worked as well. I then installed the English superuser app and attempted to replace the chinese one with it by deleting the original and renaming the english one in system/app. After this i realized I screwed up and attempted to restore using odin and a 4.2.2 stock md5 file for my phone. Odin recognized the device, then failed. Now when I boot up I get the screen that tells me to try to recover with kies. I tried that but the phone is said to be "unsupported". I realize I'm an idiot, but I would really appreciate some help. I tried to find a 4.3 firmware and update with that but I couldnt find one. Thanks!

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livelysins96:
I was wondering if it would be possible to utilize all four cores in the snap dragon 800 all of the time. I know that multi core processors only utilize what they need, and each core will only process one thing at a time. Without getting into Amdahl's Law, and getting super complex. It could be impossible, because you would almost have to break the law or something.

I just want to hear your guy's thoughts on this.

I suppose this could have gone into a different section as it is not directly related to the G2 itself, but oh well. :P
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
sure, its possible. youll need s custom kernel that exposes the files for hotplugging. then you neex to set 4 cores as minimum on. thats how im using my nexus 5, no hotplugging/4 cores always on. in theory, its better for battery life as well, since the cpu doesnt waste time turning cores on and off constantly while hotplugging.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livelysins96:
Where would I get that custom kernel for a d800?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
now that i cant help with. check out the development sections to see if there are any available. but you need a total of 10 posts to see those sections, and youre almost there!

I think If you are rooted you can try to turn off mpdecision,use trickster mod app.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
disabling mpdecision doesnt disable hotplugging
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gm007:
What i know that disabling mpdecision will turn all cores on.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
wrong again. mpdecision keeps the cpu away from 300mhz, closer to 1100mhz(i dont know what it has been set to for the g2). this provides a boost when starting apps. custom kernels generally disable mpdecision.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1_enthusiast:
1036mhz for G2

U can disable MPdecision in system/bin, just rename the files with a .bak
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livelysins96:
After disabling 2 cores still seem to be offline. Idk.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
right, you disabled the cores, you didnt disable hotplugging. but, you are a dual core for the time being :)

you would need to set 4 cores as minimum used, and 4 cores as a maximum. this, for all intensive purpose, will set 4 cores as a minimum being used, and make hotplugging not available.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livelysins96:
How do I do that within trickster?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] livelysins96:
Here are my current settings I believe I figured it out?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hammer_Of_The_Gods:
Hi,

Disabling MpDecision in Trickster Mod makes the four cores always online, I've just tested (and I continue to test)... Compared to MpDecision ON, with two cores online mainly then one core then three cores online (according to what you are doing obviously)...

So I confirm that with MpDecision OFF, all cores are always online whatever the load of the CPU (since 10 minutes with screen ON/OFF, browsing, settings, etc...).

EDIT: with g.lewarne kernel, but he kept MpDecison stuff like stock, so... But I remember tested with the stock kernel and it was the same thing, maybe something related to LG kernel especially?

:)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gm007:
That's what i know,but simms has more knowledge than me.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
nobody is perfect, i make mistakes as well :angel:

i dont use trickster, nor have a g2. ive always disabled mpdecision with my nexus 4 and nexus 5 by script, and that never ever disabled hotplugging. but, then again, g2 kernel code could be different :)

btw, on the nexus, disabling mpdecision is easy with the terminal emulator..

su(press enter)

stop mpdecision(press enter)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hammer_Of_The_Gods:
I never said you're wrong, just stated that with the G2 it works to have all cores online all the time disabling MpDecision do the trick ;)

I remember read that g.lewarne and whootever (2 kernel devs for the G2) have said that LG have some weird things about the kernel, maybe it's that... :confused:

LG messed up with some stuff in their kernel according to their sources, but maybe nothing directly related to MpDecision stuff..., ow well I don't know. But for sure I will run with MpDecison OFF to see if there is some good/weird behaviors (performance/battery life). I run with all cores online all the time on my N5 without any issues about battery life and great performance, maybe with the G2 it could be great too...

:)
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
do me an experiment. download and install perfmon from the play store, open it, press cpu. then do whatever you do(but watch the perfmon floating window. tell me if you see cores disable and enable with your use. make sure mpdecision is disabled. now im just curious. btw, perfmon is a cool app that enables a floating window so you can watch it while doing your normal stuff.

[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] tomosensei:
On a whim, I picked up a USB charging adapter for a Samsung P1000 Galaxy Tab and tried it with my Nook HD. It allows my Nook HD to charge from USB batteries that it refused to acknowledge previously.

The adapter is basically a USB Plug/Socket with a couple of resistors on the inside to emulate the correct voltages on the D+/D- lines. When in use, the Nook HD sees my batteries as AC input. I picked mine up on eBay for around $5 from a seller in CA. DealExtreme has one that is slightly different but should work the same. dx.com/p/usb-2-0-male-to-female-extension-cable-w-data-charger-switch-for-samsung-p7510-more-black-258964

Here is the listing on eBay for the one that I bought. ebay.com/itm/190702898352?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

This will possibly help many like myself who have batteries already that the Nook HD/HD+ just doesn't like.

Hope it helps!!
[Nook HD, HD+ Accessories] jeober:
Just FYI

For those inclined to modify a USB charger or to create a charger cable jumper adapter by modding a spare USB extension cable;

If the Nook sees the two USB data wires tied together and not tied to a voltage through a resistor (i.e., leave floating), the Nook will go to full charge mode.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] 440bro:
Unfortunately I think you're only reading what you want to hear. The Note 1 is no longer supported. It will not receive an official update anymore. The page you link to is referring to a custom rom based on android 4.4 kit kat. Check out this link. It says what samsung devices will be getting the update and when.

Here's the gist of it:

First Batch of Recipients

Samsung Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3 are expected to get Android 4.4 KitKat firsthand and will directly benefit from various new system enhancements and improvements.

Second Batch of Recipients

After Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3 received their updates, two former flagship devices will follow - the Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2

Excluded Devices

Sadly, there are several popular devices too excluded from Android 4.4 KitKat update and it includes Galaxy S2, Galaxy S, Galaxy Note 1, Galaxy S2 Mini and Galaxy Minis. Due to the 18-month update window strictly followed by manufacturers, Galaxy S2, Galaxy S and Galaxy Note 1 are unable to receive any further updates but owners may resort to custom ROMs to get latest features. Galaxy Minis are unable to receive such upgrades due to hardware issues or incompatibility to the upcoming version of TouchWiz UI.

Sorry for the bad news.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
Hey folks!

Been a long user of Xperia Arc S (2011, official updates never got past crappy 4.0.4), now it is time to upgrade. I was looking at something in medium price range, Note 2 caught my eye. The Development section appears to have great activity as well, so guess this phone does sure have some after-market worthness. Still I thought to ask you, how happy are you with your devices.

First, if I am actually going to buy this phone, is there any difference between the colors? Do the materials differ? Is the grey one also more fingerprint and dirt prone than the white one?

How powerful are the CPU and GPU on the phone? Can these take some stress or are they under continuous pressure by the firmware? By that I mean, how well is the firmware optimized? How many user apps can the phone run in addition to system apps before I should start rooting and throwing out some unnecessary crap? Or should I directly move to a custom ROM (might want to explain regarding the counters and official firmware issues)?

Looking in the General section, I see the Android 4.3 update has brought many negative emotions to the forum due to missing features and worse user experience. As I checked from my operator, the phone is sold with 4.1.2 on it. Is it worth to upgrade to 4.3 (I wonder if the update has any major positive sides as well)?

I have played around a lot with ROMs and kernels and basebands and stuff on Xperia models, but I am completely new to the Samsung world of smartphones, thereby any kind of feedback (I won't mind critism either :D) is certainly welcome.

That's it for now, I will shoot more questions once I get some! :)
