[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nrgtic:
Dear all,

I got a Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 with a German Telecom Branding which I wanted to get rid of.

I chose Cyanogenmod and followed an online instruction to install it.

At first, everything seemed to work out fine, Cyanogenmod started, but then the keypad stopped working and I got this message that I cannot even recall (something like "..had to be closed down").

After reading some threads, I decided to do the whole process again, and (don´t ask me in detail what I did, but) now my notebook does not recognize my phone anymore and I cannot re-install Cyanogenmod.

I guess I will not be the first to ask this, but I could not find a thread that matched exactly my situation.

I am starting to get really exhausted.

Here is what information I can give - please forgive any ridiculous naming or expressions, I am not so familiar with this all:

I used CF-Root-SGS2_ZS_OZS_KG2-v4.1-CWM4.tar as a kernel.

I used Odin 3.07 for getting it onto my phone.

For Gapps I used gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip and on ClockwordMod Recovery v4.0.0.2 this can be installed without a problem.

For Cyanogenmod I used cm-10.1.3-i9100.zip

As Cyanogenmod would not install, I tried to:

-wipe factory/data reset

-wipe cache partition

-wipe Dalvik Cache

-format system/data/cache (I guess I acidentally formatted the sd-card, as this, since, does not contain any data)

-toggle signature verification

-even tried toggle script asserts

I re-flashed the Kernel, and used an external SD-card to get Gapps and Cyanogenmod back into the phone.

I erased the necessary lines in the cm-zip to get over Status 7 which then had appeared.

But still the installation of Cyanogenmod does not work.

It now states:

E:signature verification failed

Installation aborted

and I cannot find any advise that I did not already try.

Can anyone help?

Greets and thanks!

[HTC One S] WhiteThanatos:
It's been a very long time since I last updated my HTC One S, and recently I was going to do an update. I'm not quite sure where to start because I still have my old roms and recovery flashed. I tried searching through various forums but it seems like most of the posts are at least updated to a more recent HBoot. I'm a complete noob when it comes to custom flashing roms and whatnot and was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction of what order to update my phone in.

As for my phone's versions:

HBoot 1.06.0000

Android Version 4.0.3

HTC Sense 4.0

ROM: LeeDrOiD One Supreve V2.0.0

Recovery: ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.1.5

Kernel: Stock as far as I know

Any help is appreciated! And please let me know if additional information is required.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clyde909:
Tried to change to the desire-z hboot to add extra space when running kitkat 4.4.2. Used the PC10IMG.zip file in developer forum.

It replaced the hboot and the radio, plus the recovery.img. The recovery.img was from 3.0.2.4. Before running the PC10IMG.zip I was using

the latest Clockwork Recovery file. Needles to say the phone won't boot. I need to make a PC10IMG.file that will replace the files

that were in the in the original files on the phone. Needless to say I can't us ADB because that fastboot is not working. I tried update files

form earlier versions(PC10IMG.Zip), they didn't work because hboot was different and I got a version error. Got any suggestions where I can

some later .img files to restore the bad ones.

Thanks,

Clyde

This might be a plan for those who can't get anything to work.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ofaring:
Phone: Koodo Moto G with Motorola Android 4.3

I've seen a post or two about not being able to install Android APK files on the Moto G, and I've seen some solutions. As far as I'm aware, on this particular release of Android this is to prevent malicious apps from installing from SD memory, which makes a lot of sense given the amount of malware, etc. targeting Android. Anyway, conjecture aside, here is my preferred route to installing apk files (like f-droid), since I don't like ES File Manager, and I don't like random hacks which in all probability are just going to introduce another security hole anyway.

First, be sure you have enabled the proper settings under Settings --> Security --> Unknown sources.

Get root. This is mandatory, and why do you want to muck about away from the relative safety of the Play Store if you aren't getting root anyway?

Install a file manager built for accessing protected partitions. My fave is Root Explorer (purchased).

Open your "Download" folder on the SD memory (where your web browser will have saved the apk) and select your apk for copying or moving. Now open the root folder, and here you have a choice. You will need to create a folder in the phone's protected storage. (Delete/Move random files anywhere in here at your own peril!) For simplicity and security, I used

/data

. I then created a folder named

APKs

(/data/APKs) and moved my apk files to that location. Now your files are somewhere the operating system considers "safe".

Click, install, enjoy!

this is the best firmware (mine is a IMATE)

UNI_QTEK_13077_176_10900_WWE_Ship.exe

Was this the best ROM to choose and also what is this strippped version of WM5 i heard that is pure WM5 and its a little faster??

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Frankenbiker:
Due to popular demand, I'm moving my CM11 builds out to a new thread.

#include <standard_disclaimer.h>

Coming from CM10.x (or JB/ICS 4.3 and previous), this cannot be dirty-flashed. Factory reset and wipe /cache, /system, and /data.

Can be dirty-flashed from CM11.

TWRP won't work. Requires CWM 6.0.4.3 or higher

This is a plain-vanilla CM11. No extra commits on this build. If you dirty-flash on top of one of Jamie's P-builds, you'll lose all the Uber-Kernel functionality.

Use the Skyrocket changelog for information on what's changed on these builds:

http://www.cmxlog.com/11/skyrocket/

Right now, the big issues are common with ALL CM builds:

Video recording not working

LTE not working on SOME carriers

Trebuchet launcher was re-integrated into the main CM build tree, but it's not working on this build yet.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Frankenbiker:
I'm building these on a weekly basis. I'm trying for Fridays, but that may not be set in stone.

Besides not having time to do nightlies, the sheer number of changes going in on a daily basis is astonishing. As with CM10.0 and CM10.1, the volume of changes at this early stage in the game means that stability is not a priority. Weekly builds give a little more time to figure out exactly where the bugs are (true problems versus problematic flashes and downloads), and my laptop a rest.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crutzulee:
This is very cool...So far this build has been running very well for me today...I even have camcorder working with JB+ camera...

I'll ask my question from the previous thread. Has anyone been able to get long press of the home button to display the app switcher? If so How?

Thanks again Frankenbiker!!!

I use that feature all the time. Not sure why it won't work for you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] rschwarzwalder:
please excuse the stupid question!

Is this a new rom for us or a continuation of Jaimie's? Just wondering if a dirty flash is possible from his p15?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Frankenbiker:
This is a plain-vanilla CM11 build.

I don't believe there's any reason why you could not dirty flash over Jamie's builds.

However, I'm not building his UberKernel so you'll lose all that functionality.

Wow thanks for the quick reply and doing what you do for us! LOL dirty flashed while you responded, so far so good!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crutzulee:
Hmmm..that's odd...I completely wiped before flashing the ROM twice and this feature was not working from the beginning for me..I couldn't get it to work even after loading gravity box in exposed..

Maybe I'll have to try downloading the ROM again. Although I doubt its a bad download as everything else is working so well..I may wait a few days to test as I can use an app switcher app from the market.

Can anyone else confirm that the default android app switcher is working for them?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] edamigo:
I did dirty flash as well and did not encounter any problems. Pretty nice build.

CM11 camera recoding does not work as stated but external apps do work. I use "A Better Camera" and it works. It has several seconds delay before starting recording but after that everything is fine and recording is playable. Tried 720p and 1080p. Read that JB Camera + worked as well but did not try myself.

As for LTE it just does not stick for me after *#*#4636#*#* LTE/GSM selection. Others do not have this problem. May be modem related. In CM10.2 LTE/GSM/WCDMA was available in settings and I did not have to do dialer trick. In CM11 only 3G and 2G options are available. Still works fine with LTE after dialer trick. And without it it defaults to HSPA+ which is pretty fine for most usages.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] elheffe:
You can try flashing uber kernel and see if that helps. I've been running it on this rom all week with only the occasional reboot.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] crutzulee:
NFC seems to work fine. I can send and receive photos to and from my wife's S3.

Has tap to pay worked with our phone on any ROM? I thought there was some security feature missing that precluded this...or at least made it something you wouldn't want to try.

Most build guides are still on 12.04. Only one that I could find is on 13.10. In any case, the last I saw was that Google is still on 12.04 to build AOSP.

Given that 12.04 is sticking around for a while, I'll play in this sandbox for a while. Stability is good for learning. :)

I don't know if we're going to get all the way back to "official" status. But given that there are several other MSM8660 devices still in "official" status, and at least two that are "substantially similar" to ours, it doesn't seem to be a big stretch that we could be the recipient of some high-level "unofficial" love. Especially in light of the platform-commonized builds that CM is trending towards, such as the G-Note-2, the S-3, the S-4, and several others.

In any case, it makes MY job quite a bit easier. ;)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] edamigo:
Tap-Tap-Tap: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.maicas.android.wsleep

I used it before. You can set it to lock/unlock with 2 or 3 taps on proximity sensor. Modify settings to your taste and practice a little bit. It consumes some battery (if I remember correctly about 7% per day). But it is small price to pay in your case.

You may want to check play store. It has many applications that may do exactly what you need (use volume buttons to wake/unlock) : "Auto Screen On", "Wake All", "Anyunlock" ....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Assbutter:
Sorry to be unclear. My bad. :). I have tried using the app but I dont like the idea of my phone never being able to deep sleep. I feel i lost about %20 battery when using the app. Right now I am using AOKP as it has the volume rocker wake feature baked into the system.

I've been looking around for a patch that can enable it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] :
Can you explain in more detail how laggy the video is (YouTube, Gallery playback,etc)? Also, what's speakerphone mute? I'm really keen to dirty flash, is that possible? And does 'PURE' CM11 mean removal of the blue Holo and completely replacing it with white? Do I have to change anything if I dirty flash, or anything I have to note? Thanks!

P.S. Statusbar (SystemUI) restarting bug still present, by any chance I found this article describing how some memory leaks in 'Frameworks' has been fixed: http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...droid-4-4-m6-snapshot-builds-now-rolling-out/

EDIT: Apparently 3 April's kernel made the crashes not so severe (new kernel froze the phone without any reboot)

EDIT 1: It's getting worse, could be caused by Theme Engine, will try disabling it and seeing what happens.

EDIT 2: It's almost un-usable, will switch back to April 3 build.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Frankenbiker:
Video started recording after about a 3-second lag; played fine in gallery. Previous builds have always had garbled video in the gallery player, using the stock camera. Other camera apps didn't seem to be affected.

You can always dirty flash, although since there were so many code changes in the background, I'd suggest doing a clean flash on this one.

Speakerphone Mute is where you try to use the mute function when on speakerphone. Mute doesn't work. People (and in my case, voice-response computers) can still hear you (and thus mis-interpret your keypad inputs).

If you're still seeing blue in the status bar, for instance, you're still running CM10.2. CM11 went to white, even on my builds, from the beginning.

Dirty flashing rarely gives problems on true nightlies. But on these weekly/bi-weekly builds, if you start having major issues, it's usually best to start from scratch. Set your personal data up such that it's an easy backup from your backup app of choice (I prefer JRummy's ROMToolbox over TiBu), as well as backing up your call logs and text messages. Restoration of apps over WiFi takes all of 30 minutes, and a data restore takes half that.

(Yeah, I hate rebuilding a working phone from a factory reset, too. But I learned a while back that sometimes it saves a lot of grief down the road to spend the extra hour doing it right. You were only watching TV during that hour, right??? ;) )
