[General Questions and Answers] TateWayman:
Hello again!

Hi I have a few questions

1.What os would you use to make the custom android? (I have a iMac running mac OSX)

2.What programs would you use to develop the custom android?

3.What version of android? (My kindle has only 2gb of storage and no microsd slot:(

Also it only has one hardware button which is the power button so how could you use a version older from ICS that doesn't emulate buttons?

4.The drivers I need are Display,Touch,Wifi and power button. so how would I get them?

5.I think my kindle could be rooted because it runs a custom distro.

6.How could I delete Kindle os and install android?

7.Would the linux 2.6 kernel work with android?

8.You can get the kindle os on the internet in a bin file. Would it have drivers that would work with android?

How should I start?

Thanks

I am sorry to beat a dead horse, but where else should I see more of it?
[General Questions and Answers] Nicknackpaddywack101:
I found the website at kdroid.org but it seems that the project has been abandoned for like 4 years. I tried flashing it on my kindle paperwhite 2 but after it boots it shows me a screen saying

"android is updating"

then it gets me to this blank white page with 3 Chinese buttons. I figured out that the left one will reboot the device, then go to this screen again. The center one will connect you to wifi and the right one will do nothing but show some loading signs and then do nothing. The version of Android seems to be ancient(4.x).

Anyone interested in trying to resupport this project and fixing these problems?

Prehaps android 6 or 5 will be enough.

More instructions here https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=341198&highlight=boot+kindle+android (although this seems to be abandoned as well)
[General Questions and Answers] Nicknackpaddywack101:
OOPS,

It seems that this thread has been abandoned (did not check dates lol)

but just in case, here is some more useful info: if you are interested in resupporting such project

The original project is OLD and it runs on VERY OLD devices (typical with the Chinese lol)

The newest devices supported are the kindle voyage and kindle oasis

make sure you are good at using translators (lol, again)

the android system is in the esystem.bin file

you could build your own android system from the code amazon provides if you wanted to on a newer device

to ensure you can read(or translate the chinese) and for the sake of correctly rendering the chinese characters I reccomend you to do so in a chinese version of windows or other os(VM or hardware, whatever is good for you) and if you cannot read chinese there are tutorials for changing display language on the web.

Linux is reccomended for editing the esystem.bin file BUT

you can ONLY use windows to install the android system using the installer(from the mobilereads link above)

I got two for mine, one from PDAir, which is a belt/clip case, and one from tuff as nuts, which is a belt case. The tuff as nuts is great for me because you actually slip it onto the belt - no way it can come off.

Both are leather and excellent quality.

I switch my cases quite a bit. the best for me imo are the Nillkin brand from china. they look very chic and nice. I have the white leather with front screen protector. I had dropped a few of my phones and damaged the screens due to no front protection. Yeah any case will protect majority of the phone, but not the most important part...the screen. ever since I started using thin hybrid covers, never had a broke screen again. The cover I have is thin without the bulk and yet very nice. I get compliments and others want the same for their model phones. Check them out. you can buy almost anywhere ...ebay, amazon. I buy off ebay all the time. even though most come from china, it takes less than two weeks to arrive.

[One (M7) Accessories] AndrewAmazed:
I have to agree with this...

I preordered the HTC One and I have yet to see any cases that I really like. I've kind of settled with the Diztronic Matte case and an aluminum Devilcase bumper. I mean they get the job done as I just need a case that is sturdy enough to take a drop every so often but still be thin/lightweight.

I have to say this is one of my main gripes about the phone... the case selection. (especially compared to like an iPhone)
[One (M7) Accessories] iksiksiks:
Received yesterday this one, the Ballistic Aspira in black-lime.

Adds a little more bulk to the One but if you have fear of dropping it accidentally this may be damping well.

Found for 14€ on ebay.

I bought a Body Glove DropSuit and a commuter series otterbox for my htc one. I pretty much use the otterbox all the time, but if I didn't have it, I wouldn't mind the dropsuit. It has easy nice grips and is pretty rugged. I'm not quite sure what kind of bells and whistles you're looking for, but I wanted something that didn't add much size to the phone and would protect it when i drop it.

Wow, I haven't post here in years.

Here is the case that I find looks the best:

ebay /itm/290979521108

It follows the design of the back of the phone itself and is really thin. It may not offer much in drop protection, but if you're looking to for something sleek that will keep you from scratching the hell out of your phone, this is it. It's made of a stiff TPU and is well textured for grip. Feels more plasticy than rubbery but still flexible. Fits as good as it does in the ebay pic too. A really well formed and cut case for dirt cheap. Ships from China but I got mine sent to Illinois in week's time.
[One (M7) Accessories] thevuman:
The best was the poetic atmosphere but that got discontinued and now impossible to find. I wanted a second one too :( a blue one
[One (M7) Accessories] Janderson88:
I just picked up a Body Glove DropSuit at Wal-mMart for $16, best case I've had for this phone yet. I got it in Grey, I'm actually gonna go back and get one in black, too. Fits absolutely PERFECTLY, pretty much snaps on over the phone, being a lightly-flexible TPU. I've already dropped it once today, and it bounced once and landed flat. Only thing I haven't liked so far is the volume buttons are hard to push, but that's it. I LOVE it. Super grippy, and the ribbed back and grip blocks down the sides make it totally solid to hold.

Same symptoms, but no water damage

Hey man,

Thanks a ton for your post. I have the same issue, as in it won't stop booting at all. However, mine didn't happen because of water damage, but when I tried to do a factory reset (the phone was only on 5% charge so I'm not sure if that screwed it up). Do you think it could still be solved with a flex cable? I tried holding just the volume button down, and it does go into the bootloader so it seems pretty much exactly like what you have described!

Cheers
[HTC One X] de4life:
My only experience with replacing the flex cable comes from water damage, I'm not sure whether a software fault (as this appears to be) could have any effect on the cable itself!

When you get into the bootloader screen, does it just cycle all the way through to fastboot without allowing you to select any other options before rebooting? If so it would suggest your phone thinks the power button is constantly pushed down, which is suggestive of a power flex cable fault.

These cables are very cheap to buy, so if you aren't able to do anything else with the phone it's definitely worth a shot, even if it doesn't work. Just remember that opening the phone voids your warranty, and be careful if you do attempt it, as the insides of the One X are quite delicate. It would be very easy to break something!
[HTC One X] Kahun:
I had to replace my power flex cable when I was changing my battery as I accidentally snapped it.
[HTC One X] de4life:
It's very easy to do, the flex cable is a fragile piece. There are quite a few parts inside the HOX which could easily snap, which is why I always urge a lot of caution when opening the phone up!
[HTC One X] chemistrylab:
Thanks. I've already taken the back off and noticed some broken bits of plastic...from the back....but I did notice a bit of ribbon that looked a bit screwed up....I'm gonna take it to the gizmo wizard to fix once I buy a new power flex cable.

:)
[HTC One X] de4life:
Good luck!
[HTC One X] RogerL:
Another thing to try

Old thread I know but thought it was worth adding that with a water damaged phone the issues can result from the fact that tap water contains minerals which can leave a conductive residue when it dries - can change resistances, cause shorts etc. What I've done previously is used isopropyl alcohol (tape head cleaning fluid) with a toothbrush on the motherboard. Brought a phone back to life. This removes the mineral deposits and cleans everything. Had to remove the metal covers from the mobo first though. If a phone is basically dead or not working right after water damage then it's worth a go. As de4life says, just need to be super careful on the HOX with all the delicate ribbon cables.
[HTC One X] de4life:
Indeed, the phone should be thoroughly clensed if possible to wipe out any corrosive liquids left behind from the water (especially if it's dropped in an ocean). The effects of corrosion can be very slow and potentially last for months.
[HTC One X] Hiaham:
M8 please reply to this all the flex cables that I found are 40$+ can you give me a link for one as you stated that would cost 5 pounds
[HTC One X] Vihrenkasabov:

Thank you!

Thank you very much for typing this out! My Google Pixel OG (2016), which was made by HTC, experienced the exact same problem. I have just fixed it by replacing the power flex cable like you suggested.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmagritte:
I just got a replacement Nexus 5 which is fine except for 1 stuck green pixel just about at the centre of the screen. It's a bit annoying. I don't know if they would send me a new phone over this or if it's worth the hassle.

There are a number of apps that claim to fix stuck pixels by cycling through colours. I've tried a few for a few minutes. People in the comments have said running it overnight fixed their stuck pixels.

Does this really work? What's the principle that would allow a stuck pixel to become unstuck?

If I want to try this should the screen be set to maximum brightness or not? I'm a little concerned that leaving the phone plugged in with the screen on at max brightness may cause damage to the phone or screen due to overheating. Is this something I should be worried about?

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee2012:
Usualy its hardware (screen itself) related so software cannot fix that.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmagritte:
So what's going on with people who claim it's worked for them?

In any case, I think I'll call Google and see if I can get another replacement. Maybe third time will be the charm...
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alex240188:
Because it can work.

Think of each pixel as 3 switches.

One red. One blue. B one green.

In your case one pixel has the green switch stuck on.

These apps are designed to force the switches to keep turning on and off.

Sometimes you can get lucky and the switch will eventually free itself after so many tries.

Sometimes it will not work no matter what.

These apps just try to get it unstuck.

Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't

There is an Xposed module that hides the fact that you're rooted from apps that check, it's called RootCloak. I've never used it so I can't vouch for it, but I'd at least look into it.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] titotito1983:
Hi!

I'm using it and everything is working great.

The apps open faster, the UI is more fluid. Regarding the battery, everybody say that the battery performance is better but I haven't experience this, I mean the battery was great before 4.4.2 and now is as good as it used to be.

One problem I have, but is not related to ART I think, is that when you pull down the notifications menu when the phone is blocked, the animation laggs a lot. But as I said, this happens when you are using Dalvik too I think.
