[Moto X Q&A] thedosbox:
What are those of you with a Rogers Moto X doing given they still haven't released KitKat?

I know their forum has a post indicating it's "coming soon", but attempts to get more information in the Moto X section just result in nonsense responses from someone who doesn't even own a Moto X.

My concern with flashing the developer edition ROM is the loss of warranty and lack of Band 7 LTE support. However, I'd be tempted if the latter is not an issue.
[Moto X Q&A] Steve-x:
I'm not with Rogers but I am using Rogers Moto X's. I have unlocked the bootloaders on all of my phones and flashed the 4.4 dev edition/retail/tmobile firmware and then flashed the kitkat 4.4 Brazil modem file(this will give you the newest modem file and enable band 7 LTE). Performance is excellent, if you don't mind the warranty issue then I'd highly recommend it.
[Moto X Q&A] thedosbox:
Hmm, interesting. Wouldn't flashing the Brazil modem affect future DE OTA updates?

[edit] Ugh, it seems that the Brazilian model doesn't support LTE Band 1 (which Rogers uses):

Rogers uses LTE bands 4 and 7 which will work prefect with the Brazil modem.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vla3d:
Hi everyone - I actually don't know who else to ask but this issue has been driving me mental for the last couple of months. After days and nights of investigating and looking through various forums and articles, I think I can find (or try at least) the words to describe my problem more...technically))

So OK, first off the device is Huawei Ascend G510-0100 running KitKat under the Cyanogenmod platform but the issue was already present with the factory's 4.1 ROM. I thought rooting the phone, installing just brand-new everything and having a bloatware/clutter-free Android OS would rectify all the causes of this nightmare but no. I'm not the only one with this problem: Google-search the issue and you'll find numerous forum threads where users seek for a solution to this "software loophole" as well as one of my friends (Galaxy S2) and another one with the HTC One X+ so I rule out my phone's model, OS version or just my device being faulty from the list of potential causes.

So - every time I turn my WiFi off on purpose or when I go out of my house (where logically my phone looses home's wireless signal) - the location services and the app synchronization processes stumble, mess up, run into and furthermore cause internal system mess-ups from such "unexpected" losts of internet. After that I can't make a phone call, send SMS or run USSD codes (checking credit balance etc) but I can still receive calls and texts - basically I fail to reach my cellular services but the service can still reach me. Turning Airplane Mode on and then off or simply restarting the phone altogether temporary fixes the cellular problem until the next time the internet becomes unreachable to Play Services. I tried turning location and sync off, tried different location/sync options...I wish I could disable Play Services but then I wouldn't be able to use the Play Store - | tried messing around with probably every single option available and possible but the Play Services still failed me and.......I honestly don't know what am I missing and where to look next

Edit: (I never use the mobile data btw)

Any suggestions? Anybody? I'm hopeless at this point :crying: :eek: :(

Thank you all...

[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
No but it's best to just factory reset before you do it to avoid any issues that may arise.
[HTC Droid DNA] .torrented:
Unlocking the bootloader will fully wipe the device, I don't know how rumrunner works but I do know that if you unlock it will wipe everything
[HTC Droid DNA] detonation:
Rumrunner unlocks the bootloader via an exploit rather than the normal dev unlock (which is unavailable for the DNA), so it doesn't erase the device.

I just recently got my xperia Z1s and it's also my first Sony phone period. I'm really enjoying it but all of a sudden my YouTube videos play about half way through then stop and go back to the beginning again? It never makes it past that half point. I've only noticed this with YouTube so it could be an app issue, vevo plays fine, but idk cause YouTube was working fine until yesterday and today as well. My other devices are playing videos from YouTube fine so I'm puzzled as to wether this is an app problem specific to the Z1s or if it's my phone itself maybe?? I don't have too much longer to make a return. If anyone has this issue as well please let me know, or any suggestions? I already tried clearing cache and data as well. That's about all I can do since I'm not rooted of course.

Hello , my name is Hendra

sorry to ask a noob question , as I've searched internet but I didn't have the answer ...

my android phone is	Alps MITOT300

I tried to format my mini sdcard to ext4 type using MiniTools Partition Wizard on windows 7 , but when I put it back to my smartphone it keep saying "Damaged SD Card" , I format it using different phone but it keep saying the same thing over and over ...

The real problem is , it doesn't detected on my Windows (even using MiniTools Partition Wizard) , some Forum says to format it on PC , but how could I format it if my micro Sd card undetectable on my PC ?

I hope I can get answer here , I'm sorry if my English Language isn't good enough ...

Conclusion :

- Micro Sd Card Fully formated to Ext4 using MiniTools Partition Wizard

- Keep saying "Damaged SD Card" on many Different Android Smartphone

- microSD Card is Undetectable on windows 7 (using Card Reader or USB Cable)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ericcue:
I should start by saying I am by no means experienced with unlocking bootloaders or hacking firmware, so if this is a completely noob idea then forgive me but I thought I might as well see if I could help. Anyways, on to my idea; as we all know, the 4.3 bootloader is locked for good. So what if one was to corrupt the bootloader, like brick it on purpose to a point where the bootloader doesn't recognize any update being pushed, and then unbrick the phone with an older unlockable bootloader. Am I losing my mind due to having the locked 4.3 or is this plausible?

And while I have a thread open, could someone explain a few questions I have about knox? If knox is what is causing the bootloader to be locked and there's ways to disable knox, then wouldn't disabling knox make the bootloader unlockable? :confused:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
This won't work.

The new update changes the keys on the entire bootloader, it's impossible to corrupt the bootloader to a point of failure because the entire thing is hard coded into the board itself. The processor is specifically able recognize the vrucml1 bootchain, and it won't boot without it, unless someone finds a way to bypass that entire mechanism (which I would consider nearly impossible.

Knox is not causing the bootloader to be locked. Verizon patched our work around for unlocking the bootloader and pushed it. Knox is simply a non reversible flash counter for rooting your device. It's coded in the bootloader and system apps to detect this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ericcue:
Ah I see. I guess I had trouble understanding that an OTA could completely and irreversibly lock a bootloader. There's got to be some kind of exploit for this at some point right? I'm not sure I can handle this 4.3 nonsense anymore!

And thanks for the knox explanation, I used to hate sprint for the things they did (like booting me for roaming) and now verizon is starting to tick me off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
There is probably no chance for an exploit to completely unlock a bootloader.

Hardware hacking is almost impossible because of the type of encryption it takes to make the processor and bootchain recognize each other. It's sensitive, and you need to match the numbers specifically to perform a boot. Everyone is familiar with an md5 code, this is a fairly simple algorithm, and we all know that the slightest change in a bad download will generate a completely different md5 sum. In this case, the algorithm is much more complex, and pretty much impossible to match and trick the phone into booting an incorrect bootloader. This is why straight up hacking a bootloader an impossible feat, so we mostly make work arounds.

All our unlocked bootloader was is a very early aboot block. The bootchain trusts the aboot file, and the aboot file trusts anything you put in the recovery and system partitions. Since the new bootchain requires a signed aboot file for ML1, it makes this exploit insignificant and the aboot file doesn't trust anything else you stick in the recovery or system partition.

Loki was another exploit that was patched. Kexec is an example of a work around, and so is safestrap, but these types of workarounds won't unlock the bootloader and allow aosp Rom flashing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
You are a bundle of endless info. Thank you for breaking it down like this!

Edit: I have been curious for awhile about the technical aspect of everything you detailed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ericcue:
That was amazing lol thanks for clearing all that up. Now I guess the race is on to find safestrap compatible roms. I'm running wicked sensations right now through safestrap and it seems pretty good but I was looking for a rom that could force 4g
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
I wish I knew more coding details, like what this stuff specifically looks like, but it's interesting researching all this material.

These are the kinds of questions I like, they really make you think about what's happening. I wish more users posted questions like these. One day someone might post something that might actually work. It's good creative thinking.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dadud:
Kexec will allow flashing of aosp roms in addition to safe strap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Kexec might be able to, but it depends of that exploit has been patched or not, that kernel mechanism can also be shut down to disallow booting of a 2nd kernel. If the modules are written a certain way you're stuck with that initial boot.

Safestrap can't, it relies on a stock kernel to run, so unless someone makes an aosp rom to run with a 4.3 touchwiz kernel it won't work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dadud:
How did hashcode get cm 10.2 on the droid 3 using kexec and safe strap?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] YevOmega:
I love this thread so much. Thanks BadUsername and everyone else! So why exactly can't we use Kexec?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Getting kexec functionality isn't the easiest process. The holes that allowed kexec on 4.0.4 may have been patched due to the new Linux 3.0 kernel updated in newer versions.

Some developer would have to work on finding that loophole and enabling a second kernel to run.

Hashcode was able to do this on Motorola devices by rewriting the kernel modules to run differently. The way he did it wouldn't work for us anyway because they used OMAP devices. We have a qualcom processor, the loophole he used to enable kexec is completely different then what we would need to enable.

Additionally, it may not even be possible to enable kexec. The whole idea of a locked bootloader is to prevent this from happening. Loopholes constantly get patched, making enabling these types of workarounds increasingly more difficult.

Eventually the loophole that allows safestrap to even run will likely get patched. It's just the nature of making phones increasingly more difficult to root and unlock.

I hope someone has the time and passion to work on kexec, but I wouldn't necessarily count on it. There's likely a reason why it was never implemented on the s4.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] YevOmega:
*Sigh*
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
It's not the worst thing. In my opinion this phone runs really well on touchwiz roms anyway. Give some time for more roms to come out. Tkrom, cleanrom and jellybeans will all be spectacular when they come out.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
You can gain root access on 4.3, but still can't unlock the bootloader.

The 4.3 OTA has truly downgraded the performance of my phone, so I'm not holding out much hope that 4.3 safestrapped ROMs will do much else - Samsung has rather let me down with this update (even outside of working with Verizon to lock the darn thing down much more tightly).

I used to say that custom ROMs were not needed, because the stock OS ran so well. Since the 4.3 OTA, it feels slower than when it first came with 4.0.4 (?) and has some of the old WiFi and Bluetooth issues back, again. On both of our Galaxy S III phones, btw. Not quite so fun, anymore.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XdrummerXboy:
Oh, I didn't catch that. Thanks for the info. And ooofest, were you over at overclockers.uk? I thought I recognized that name from there, maybe it was only here though.

I've honestly lost track of the rooting requirements for this phone after I rooted. Best decision I've made with this phone! But I was nervous to do so...

I agree, it wasn't too terrible when it had 4.0.4, but compared to Cyanogenmod there's no comparison on which is smoother!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
Not that I recall, sorry. I used to be more active here and about, but then decided to go back into stock for 2013 and ramp up the rooting, unlocking, optimization, etc. in 2014.

It would always be ready to re-root and unlock, yes?

Well, never say "always."

Indeed.

[LG Optimus G Pro] jrtancinco:
Hi guys, I don't know if this is supposed to be either a feature or a bug, but since I replaced the battery cover from the original Quick Cover folio case (CCF-210) to the non-folio one, everytime I charge the phone the Notifications LED becomes dim as if brightness setting was set to zero. I have the unlocked AT&T E980 model immediately flashed with Panama ROM (full stock, non rooted) since I bought it a month ago. I made a few tests to check if this is a hardware or software issue (if it's an issue at all) and so I did the following:

* Using the non-folio case, when phone is NOT charging, the LED brightness is NORMAL (i set it to 80% brightness)

* Using the non-folio case, when phone is charging, the LED brightness is DIM (as if 0% brightness). I check the settings it's still set at 80%

* Using the Quick Cover case (auto screen off is turned ON), when phone is either charging or not, the LED brightness is NORMAL

Is anybody else experiencing this? Is the phone supposed to do this or not? I'm thinking of hard resetting the phone, but I wanna make sure I'm the only one experiencing this before I do.
[LG Optimus G Pro] jrtancinco:
No response from anyone? I guess I'm alone on this one...
[LG Optimus G Pro] deadenz:
I do know that when charging your phone there is a setting for the LED to change the colors or disable it, on certain roms. that's the only thing I can say about it.. sorry I wasn't more help
[LG Optimus G Pro] jrtancinco:
Thanks for the response. Yeah, I tried changing the settings and then testing it again, but the LED keeps on dimming out (dropping to 0% brightness) when I connect the charger. LED works fine & normal when the charger isn't connected. It's nothing that affects performance though, it's just a really weird and annoying behavior.

Since it looks like I'm the only one experiencing this, I'd probably try to hard rest one of these days (when I'm not lazy anymore hehe) and hope it fixes the weird behavior.
[LG Optimus G Pro] xdax1:
how to make it brighter in general

i was gonna ask a similar question, are you saying the notification LED in home button right? Mine is so dim when charging, i can hardly see it, I have seen it much brighter when powering off phone and turning on phone, how can I make it brighter at all?

I am on ROOT E988 version by the way, stock ROM
[LG Optimus G Pro] jrtancinco:
Yes, that's exactly it. So it's not specific to just the E980 Panama ROM since your experiencing the same on your E988. Same here, I can hardly see the green notification or the red breathing light when the charger is plugged in, especially during daytime. So is this supposed to happen or is it a bug? Do anyone else notice this on your LG OGP?
