Google is desperate about the nexus because they don't building devices with external storage and they want others to follow them.they know Samsung galaxy devices more popular then nexus and Google makes more difficult changes on android so Samsung can lose more customers, first attempt to galaxy s3 killing external storage on the devise but Samsung repair that issue on 4.3 next stage is s4 and note 3 android planning to cancel external storage on latest Samsung devices so customer's start to following their stupid nexus

But one think they don't know..... if android so powerful right now because of galaxy devices.

Google one think i want to tell you that i use Samsung devices last 10 year because it's Samsung. Don't trying to change Samsung customers try to change yourselfs and follow samsung, remember if you're number one mobile software developer in the world that's is because samsung galaxy devices
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pikwan80:
This thread freaks me out, My suggestion, if anyone already gots a good kitkat version, please don't attempt to upgrade to the next version of firmware coz sometimes it could be worse than the old version. My deepest regret was I upgraded my GT-I9200 XSE version from XXUBMJ4 into XSE-XXUCNA5, when trying to root, two factory app MAPS and YOUTUBE cannot be started and the security system was tightened and need to be tricky, I hate this new system with F*CKING KNOX.

About cannot write external SD on Note 3, My note 3 was SM-N900 XSE ( Indonesian ) version, I upgraded to KitKat XXUDNA6-SER ( Russia ), I didn't experience this case, I could write data on My external SD and copy everything from Internal SD to External Sd without any Issue, could anyone explain to me how to find this issue?? I want to know. Until Now when I upgrade again into UBUDNA6 TTT ( Trinidad ) version, I still didn't experience this write to external Issue, and I haven't touch anything but inject CWM and Super Su. My N900 using UBUDNA6 works fine until now, never error or shows anything bad, stable and low battery consumption.

Thank You for Sharing.

I will look forward to hear all of your opinion.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] denski101:
I first learnt my lesson when I updated a game about two years ago. A game I paid 8 bucks for, went free to play. I can't remember the name but it was a fighter jet game, think it was called F.A.S.T. In the original all the jets and maps were unlocked, and once updated, one level and one jet, and a **** ton of IAP. Anyway after that I take a careful look at the update changelog. Wether it be apps or the firmware. If something works I'll generally leave it be, most of my apps are outdated. But redesigns or new features I'll update.

I will admit I was caught off guard with the permission changes. If you want to test an app try this:

Youtube Downloader

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2137743

This was the first app that I noticed the external SD changes on. I think most of your apps have either been updated or are stock, that work with extsd.

Tell us if you can download to the extsd with the above app.

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pikwan80:
Thank You,

I'll try this app, all my app were original stock I haven't try other app, for moving and copying files I always use My Files or Root Explorer 2.2.11. My stock camera app write to extsd works fine when take photos.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] altimax98:
This is so wrong on so many levels... the reason this was done was for system security. Please do your research before posting rubbish like this
[Galaxy Note 3 General] denski101:
It's as I suspected. You'll have no dramas with the stock apps. Other popular apps are getting updates aswell(e.g Poweramp), it will be the apps that aren't getting updated or never will, which will require root to fix. Extremely frustrating in the meantime for apps that aren't fixed yet, that is, if your unrooted of course??
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pete4k:
I'm not a big fan of all those crazy conspiracy theories popping around just about every day, but in this case I don't believe in this security claim for a second. For starters I read somewhere Google stopped actively supporting new SD card development around Android version 2.2 or something, so how come the only development in the area breaks most 3rd party apps access to the card? Secondly, I want one, just one sample of malicious software available on the Google Play store messing up the cards which this "security" update supposedly fixes to justify breaking hundreds of 3rd party applications which use SD cards. And if their Nexus devices don't use SD cards at all, why all of a sudden such a big concern? There is simple fix for this, but you need to be rooted, why? Isn't rooting itself an invitation for trouble and security risk all by itself? I totally agree Google messed SD card on purpose to sell their useless cloud services and push people away from physical storage. What they did instead, is stopped me from updating to KK at least for now.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] pikwan80:
For me, this is a reasonable case.

Maybe I'm just stopped at my first kitkat upgrade and not to follow future updates.

For one problem, My N900 XSE-UBUDNA6 about the candy crush save data ( Rooted Only ), when I still use XSE-XXUCMJ7 ( JB 4.3 ) I still could move or copy paste save.dat from candy crush save data folder and play my latest progress, and I moved save.dat from my another rooted XSE- GT-I9200 ( JB 4.2.2 ). Nothing Wrong I did, this time I move or copy paste save.dat into my upgraded N900 from 4.3 to 4.4 and I couldn't restore my progress and have to start from beginning, really painful, My N8000 still success to restore candy crush data, poorly my note N900 UBUDNA6-TTT couldn't. What's wrong with it??? only candy crush the problem. For bubble shoot, Minion rush, no problem, I still could restore my progress.
[Galaxy Note 3 General] 1980aksoy:
I agree with you,,,The only intention to sell their products

samsung previously repaired same issue on galaxy s3, Why now they can not do the same thing on note 3 or s4 I think these two enterprises is taking joint decisions togather who knows What's going on

Some people do not understand they think that's for security purposes, What about the old ones ARE THEY NOT SAFE TO USE, I use android since the first one and I did not encounter problems

Here you guys go- http://d-h.st/7Ln

This will boot directly in recovery instead of normal booting. If someone just wants to get a taste, you can flash it. Touch is buggy/not-working and this won't boot into system. I know exactly how to fix that but my internet speed is capped. So it'll take sometime for me to fix it but I'm sure of getting this work ;)

Cheers,

AJ
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kobalto07:
works but must repeatedly pressing the touch menús to access them.

PD: and sometimes this take owned by itself and enter to menu backups jeje
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
Yes this problem with touch also happens in XGo, XP(don't know about xsola, never tried for it but it will be in it.) But its secondary problem. First thing should be getting this booted correctly. I've made a build which will most probably boot in recovery and normally but I need someone to PM me if they want to try since this could be dangerous. If someone wants PM me but I shouldn't be blamed if something goes wrong. Know how to fix your device.

Cheers,

AJ
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
Here it is(tested and working)- d-h.st/p2b

It will boot perfectly boot into system.

Will also boot in recovery when power button is pressed.

Added both vibration and led to indicate when power button has to be pressed(LED not tested)

Touch is a complete mess don't complain about it I know about that.

Completely changed the ramdisk structure to make it boot. The original ramdisk has been shrinked to lowest possible size(and recovery has been removed from it instead is triggered differently) and both the original recovery and recovery-ramdisk have been triggered separately with a init script to control the boot and all of that is then packed as the master recovery.

Cleaner way and easier to change recoveries with it. Just replace ramdisk-recovery.cpio with any of your recovery in the same format from any kernel to do so.

Somethings I would appreciate if users can do-

Give the logs in /cache/recovery/

Since touch event logging is not yet enabled yet(I'll enable it later in the source) so I think it'll be hard to fix it for now but I'll do my best.

Check if ADB works in recovery. -> OK not working. Will check it.

If you could help me solve the bugs with touch in any way it'll be nice :)

Thanks everyone.

the device starts well :good: ,and goes well in recovery, but it is a problem that goes by itself to backup menu ( must repeatedly pressing the touch menús to access them too)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
I said I'll work on it :) And actually it doesn't goes into backup menu but if you observe it closely it keeps on touching the center part of the screen. So it is to be fixed :)

recovery.log from xperia go

here are recovery.log taken from xperia go twrp (compiled by me). hope it could help
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
Thanks for log. I'm glad to see that you added touch logging event flag. I had such log from my XP. I'll try to debug it :) Also I think you are trying the elf extract method the one with FOTA partition. Most probably because your kernel isn't booting to recovery if I'm not wrong. I can help you with that if not already solved. I have the boorec-device and basic structure for kernel ready. Just use the kernel I shared for Xperia U with XGo. Extract the ramdisk and got recovery ramdisk from sbin of your compiled kernel. Extract my kernel and replace ramdisk-recovery.cpio with the one from your kernel(it'll be in gz format. Just extract it to cpio and rename accordingly). Next you can edit bootrec from ramdisk in sbin folder and remove the vibration triggering lines and recovery extracting since I added already in init script and both normal ramdisk and recovery ramdisk will work separately. The lines would look something like this-

# trigger vibration
echo '200' > /sys/class/timed_output/vibrator/enable

# disable button-backlight
echo '0' > /sys/devices/platform/nmk-i2c.2/i2c-2/2-0040/leds/button-backlight/brightness

# disable LEDs
echo '0' > /sys/devices/platform/nmk-i2c.2/i2c-2/2-0040/leds/red/brightness
echo '0' > /sys/devices/platform/nmk-i2c.2/i2c-2/2-0040/leds/green/brightness
echo '0' > /sys/devices/platform/nmk-i2c.2/i2c-2/2-0040/leds/blue/brightness

cat /dev/input/event2 > /dev/keycheck &
sleep 3

kill -9 $!

if [ -s /dev/keycheck -o -e /cache/recovery/boot ]
then

rm -r /cache/recovery/boot

stop ta_rmt_service
stop rmt_storage
stop tad
stop cspsa

mount -o remount,rw rootfs /
umount -l /system
umount -l /data
umount -l /cache
umount -l /storage
rm -r *.rc
rm -r /etc
rm -r /tmp
mkdir /etc
mkdir /tmp

cd / && gunzip < /sbin/recovery_ramdisk.gz | cpio -i -d
chroot / /init

fi

Optional step for slimming the kernel- Also you can remove recovery_ramdisk.gz from sbin and recovery binary. Then you must also remove everything symlinking to it directly or indirectly as it'll all become useless. If you want I can do that stuff for u :)

AJ

Do you mind to share your device tree?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
https://github.com/LegacySlimXperia/

Here you can find device tree of slimkat for kumquat(prepared by Gava) and for nypon(prepared by me which DroidModderXtreme used to release ROM without permission of either of us). You can go through the commits. But the tree is not yet prepared according to way it boots. I change it manually but will soon the source according to it. If possible upload your kernel which boots in recovery and I can help you with it :)

Hello, I am building and using for my personal use omnirom for our tf101's it is straight forward omnirom with a few bits added.

I will be making a few changes here and there but really just wanting to keep it a pure omnirom.

Links here

Omnirom changelog

Should be updated nightly but having a few probs with my build box.

Let me know if you have any problems guys, the usual I am not responsible if anything goes wrong with your tab so take a nandroid if you need to, the builds are tested by me unless you beat me to it.

Installation instructions

Wipe everything if coming from another ROM

Wipe Cache, System and Dalvik if updating

Install ROM and GAPPS

Wipe Cache and Dalvik

Reboot

Thanks to Google, omnirom, sidneyk, timduru and anyone else I have missed.

Everything seems to be working that I have come across, there are a few things which I know sindneyk has been working on in the other thread like the dock battery is there are working but there is no notification at the top.

As I said it is just keeping up to date with omnirom and a few changes here and there like clearing out some of the screen savers and that kind of thing.

Will get a bit more detail up soon.

I agree, but why two OMNI-rom threats. It is a legitimate question why he is not joining [MENTION=244701]Sydney[/MENTION]k but instead is starting his own.

[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] pops106:
In all honesty, I have only been building ROM's for about 6 months AOKP for the nexus4 and i9300, Omni for the tf300t and the tf101.

I basically wanted to make a ROM the way I wanted them slightly slimmed few bits added and as up to date as possible as I am a update addict...

Just sharing the ROM really, it is 99% not my work just put together and built by my nearly working build box.

Adding consists of;

DSP Manager - Already in Omni so no need on this

Android File Manager, just so something is there from a clean flash, I usually add es file explorer later

ClockLock from CM as I like that widget

SuperSU - Not working in this build yet

Removing consists of;

Screen savers

Wallpapers

Others to follow just to keep it clean
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
There is a basic file manager with Omni but I always put es file explorer on real quick, too.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] pops106:
If you have any problem at all however small with this second omni thread let me know and I will get rid...

Thank you very much though for your hard work, I assume the omni tf101 bits on github have a lot to do with your work, I am currently just stealing your vendor files.
[Eee Pad Transformer Android Development] sidneyk:
No problem so long as you aren't actively discouraging folks from giving mine a try. If you make some changes somewhere that I find useful I may want to incorporate them or you could submit through gerrit for approval. I won't be able to use anything that depends on Linaro presently as Omnirom doesn't support Linaro at this time. I see it as a another choice, that with a sharing attitude, could only help make things better for our device on Omni. I'm sure no coding expert and will seek out help wherever I can find it. Good luck.
