http://www.tinhte.vn/threads/htc-on...covery-tong-hop-rom-s-off-nang-cap-fw.1955976. This is the page which I unlock, root, and recovery. Because I couldn't have downloaded the TWRP, I used the CWM (from the link of that page) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2173863. Also, I just used that page to do those things, so I pretty sure about this. Also, every comment that you gave me, you always say check MD5 but I don't really know what is that mean ><
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
I'm gonna do some research later on about the "active commandline overflow", and I'll get back to you...

about MD5, (too lazy to type it here), just go to my guide, post #1 and check:

"Not so FAQ:"

* Q: What is this MD5 people keep talking about
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EvanLe:
Ok, thank you. I will be waiting for you. Also, I have never checked MD5 so far because I don't know what that is. I just want to let you know, and maybe it will help you to figure out for me. Thank you, again
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
Hi guys, [MENTION=5742173]EvanLe[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5746161]shanewilliamson[/MENTION]

so you both, have the same problem "Active cmdline overflow" on the M7.

The things we know:

1- it's usually due to a bad kernel

2- you're both s-on, so you are not supposed to be able to mess with low-level partitions

The things we don't know:

1- why was it corrupted

2- why did a (signed) firmware.zip not fix it

so who's online? and let's merge those threads

I'm sure you guys have googled enough to see there's no real useful intel out there, so this will be trial and error

(and I'm not responsible for anything going wrong!! it's already bad enough, and nobody with more knowledge has chipped in)

Has somebody found an answer on this already?

I'm having the same issues!

Please, anybody?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antrophogus:
Sadly this thread does not work for me. The first step seems to be working, till I have to go to the recovery.

I then go into bootloader / hboot again and select recovery.

Phone tries to start recovery, but again "Active cmdline overlow! (1027 bytes)" pops up and no recovery is entered ..

Guess this is due the fact that it is "S-on" currently with apparently no root access.

And it seems to me that you need the one to adust the other ..

So no luck yet, any other ideas please?

hi is any rom which can offer installing apps from google play by default to sdcard ???

my daughter installing lots of apps :(

Regards
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] ShapesBlue:
I've seen where apps can be moved to the sd card but normally it's not by default. But as far as roms go some have things which are similar which have the ability to move to sd but samsung in general seems to be a bit weary on having them there by default
[Galaxy Tab 2 General] blackangel82:
I was see some movie on youtube how to swap memory sd as internal memory and internal memory as sd but this work with 4.1 :/

[Galaxy Tab 2 General] ShapesBlue:
Some roms do include that option, I've found personally on my own tab 2 that the swap still somehow manages to not completely work like it should.

Yes, you can downgrade from NAE model to MDC model without go from MJK or what so ever. But setting is big headache.. pain in the butt.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] neswii:
I'm pretty sure that unlocking phones is legal now in the US and therefore Sprint must unlock their device for you if you terminate the contract with them. You just need to give em a call after the contract ends. At any rate, give em a call before downgrading or messing with your phone.

Since many users have the bug that turns off the phone when charging has reached 100%, here is a little Workaround until Sony will fix this.

You just need to install a little app from Google Play called "Safe Charge" and enable it. Done. No root needed.

Get it here

Press thanks when it helped ;)
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Crescendo Xenomorph:
Since I dont have that much money to buy overpriced S-View cover ($60), I decided to make it myself.

Thanks to Rovo89 and MohammadAG for the xposed module so I can make use the cover with only magnet and no ID chip.

This will need ROOT for the Xposed.

Note the silver part inside the white small square stuff in the right lower part is magnet.

And make sure its shielded by metal sheet outside so it wont activate the SView when you flip it under the back of the phone.

You only need small weak magnet to activate the SView (2mm x 2mm).

Dont use strong magnet as it will damage the screen.

The magnet will rest over the lower left of the screen when the cover is closed.

The rest is mica, glue, and cheap flip cover.

OFFICIAL FXZ IS AVAILABLE: http://motofirmware.com/files/category/9-ghost/

note: all you really need are boot, system, modem, and fsg. epecially if you're coming from 4.4. everything else is optional.

note: unlocked devices can downgrade to 4.4, most likely 4.2.2 also; just be sure not to flash downgraded motoboot/gpt if you've upgraded to 4.4.2 motoboot/gpt.

----------

rsd lite notes:

two processes you may want to comment out or delete are the recovery flashing and the wiping of userdata.

to comment out an operation, add "!--" to the beginning, and "--" to the end of an operation.

examples:

<step operation="flash" partition="recovery" filename="recovery.img" MD5="9A3EA0D90080200826EE7B50164012BF" />

<step operation="erase" partition="userdata" />

<!--step operation="flash" partition="recovery" filename="recovery.img" MD5="9A3EA0D90080200826EE7B50164012BF" /-->

<!--step operation="erase" partition="userdata" /-->

you can comment out other processes in this way as well.

or you can just use fastboot and flash what you want.

----------

fastboot notes:

you can look at the xml file to determine fastboot commands to use:

fastboot <operation> <partition> <filename>

examples:

xml:

<step operation="flash" partition="system" filename="system.img" MD5="" />

fastboot command:

fastboot <operation> <partition> <filename>

fastboot flash system system.img

xml:

<step operation="erase" partition="cache" />

fastboot command:

fastboot <operation> <partition>

fastboot erase cache

Way to go Q9Nap
[Moto X Android Development] jumperalex:
OH THE HUMANITY!!!!!!!!!!!!

So out of curiosity, while waiting for your fix or the official release ...

As someone who used to have a Nexus, why exactly does this process take so long? Is it just because we lack google release of full images?

For that matter I want to make sure this fxz (a new term to me) is what I think it is: This will let me flash my current XT1060, with unlocked bootloader, frozen bloat, and Xposed Framework, and what? My data will be retained? I'll still have to rebuild my whole phone?

I promise I won't clutter the thread with back and forth Q&A. If there is a better thread explaining it that I haven't found please just point me there, or give me enough tid-bits for me to perform better searches. Like I said, I'm used to dealing with and playing with my GNex so dealing with a non-nexus while wanting to retain motorola's extra's is a new to me. If it weren't for those I'd be AOSP by now :)
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
fxz: Fastboot Xml Zip

fxz contains full images of device partitions and is used to restore to out-of-the-box condition. it is similar to factory images for nexus devices. depending on how you flash, either with fastboot or rsd lite, you can choose whether or not to wipe data

fastboot: the command "fastboot erase userdata" will wipe data; don't use the command if you want to keep data

rsd lite: the xml may contain the following line: <step operation="erase" partition="userdata" />

if it does, you can disable it by changing it to: <!--step operation="erase" partition="userdata" /-->

or just deleting the line altogether.
[Moto X Android Development] jumperalex:
OK last two questions for clarity then ban me if I ask another:

so you said don't issue "fastboot erase userdata" to keep my data. That is functionally then like when I would flash a new AOSP release without doing a factory reset. All the other partitions get written and userdata is left untouched. Right?

Does that mean when I flash gpt it isn't touching the userdata partition? That was the bit that I think had me squinting. If I understood what was being said in other threads about the problems with trying to flash back and forth between 4.2.2, 4.4, 4.4.2, pre-camera, post-camera, etc it is playing with partitions sizes. That got me worried it was also going to muck about with the userdata partition ... read: erase it.
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
gpt.bin has nothing to do with userdata.

you can read this post and further in the thread for more clarification: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50555443&postcount=16
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
link is back up, please read the op FULLY before flashing.
[Moto X Android Development] StATicxTW0T:
Worked great even without erasing userdata. I can't speak as for root or rw protection as i flashed twrp and a new bootlogo immediately after flashing. Thanks for the hard work :) Also, does anyone know if the entitlement hack for wifi hotspot that worked on 4.4 works on 4.4.2?

-Edit-

Was on wifi so i didn't realize, no data connection (or mobile connection at all) after flashing. Solution ideas?
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
you can flash the vzw removal package in the same folder as the fxz. it removes all vzw bloat and branding and unlocks tethering. if you want' to unlock tethering only, you can copy the framework-res.apk from that zip to your framework on device and make sure permissions are set to rw-r-r.

as for dymmeh's xposed module, which i used to modify the framework-res.apk, not sure whether it is updated for use on 4.4.2 or not.

*edit*

btw, were you on full 4.4 before flashing? also what partitions did you flash?
[Moto X Android Development] stanrc:
Thanks for this, I'll try this out later once I have a better grasp on what I'm doing. I've got a Dev edition with TWRP.
[Moto X Android Development] StATicxTW0T:
I was on eclipse 3.1.2, and i flashed whatever was in the zip, so boot, modem, and system

-Edit- I restored from a nandroid from before i flashed this, and no signal on that either, should i try flashing gpt?
[Moto X Android Development] jjlangen:
I got a little carried away and deleted a system app I shouldn't have without backing it up. Version from 4.4 wouldn't work. Thought I'd have to wait until the SBF came out, but then I saw this... Flashed system.img and I'm back in business! On a Developer Edition.

Thanks much!!
[Moto X Android Development] jumperalex:
HA! yeah i read that the yesterday, but your comments put it into perspective. Thanks so much for the help.
[Moto X Android Development] StATicxTW0T:
-edit- my bad, had to flash fsg.mbn as well, sorry about that :) You should edit the zip to flash that, i'm pretty sure it's part of the modem so i don't think data will work without it
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
yeah, good idea. i deleted the previous one and am uploading the new one now. the op has changed, so please read carefully before flashing, especially if you plan to use rsd lite.
[Moto X Android Development] jumperalex:
OK so I did it. I used the rsd script as a guide but also, as now recommended, flashed fsg.mbn. I also flashed the verizon debloat script I was coming from an OTA'd 4.4 install that was pushed on my first boot of the phone. So a "stock" 4.4 all be it with unlocked bootloader, SuperSU, Xposed framework, and TiBU killed bloat. As you can guess I had to reinstall SuperSU binary (and clear out SuperUser), and reinstall Xposed. After that my phone was back up and running as if I never did a thing. But now I'm on 4.4.2 Oh yes and Gravity Box seems to be working just fine on 4.4.2, but I haven't checked out every single option, just the mod I personally used.

Thanks for your work Q9
[Moto X Android Development] edthesped:
okay, I'm paranoid. If I install this I can easily revert to the official 4.4 without issue if for some reason I don't way to stay on 4.4.2? my goal is to not update anything that will prevent me from downgrading to 4.4 or 4.2.2 camera fix like I currently can.

thanks.

edit: I think I got it, I'll be able to safely down grade as long as I don't install motoboot or gpt.bin? and in this case motoboot isn't an issue because it's not included?
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
correct, i was on the initial release gpt and motoboot when i first flashed this, and active notifications didn't work. that may not be an issue with the 4.4 gpt and motoboot. stay away from gpt i you can, but if you have weird issues like with active notifications, might as well flash it, especially if you're on an unlocked bootloader.

i finally gave in and did full fxz to 4.4 and flashed the update. i'll probably be able to downgrade to 4.4 or 4.2.2 if i ever want to, as long as i don't try to flash the downgraded gpt or motoboot. but 4.4.2 runs noticeably quicker, and i don't think i'll ever want to downgrade anyway.
[Moto X Android Development] edthesped:
Success! I installed everything but gpt.bin and successfully upgraded to 4.4.2, All seems to be running well. At one point I even reverted to 4.4 with a nandroid and all went well.

This is the first time I used fastboot to flash and came across an error that didn't appear to effect the flash but am curious as to what it is...

Error:

(bootloader) Variable not supported!

Is this normal or did I do something wrong during the flash process?

Thanks again!
[Moto X Android Development] StATicxTW0T:
Completely normal, i've not idea what the hell it is but i've had it every time i've flashed anything in fastboot on this phone as well as on a droid 3 and razr maxx hd
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
i updated the fxz and the op again, probably for the last time. the fxz is now complete, meaning it includes all partitions an official fxz does, including motoboot parts and gpt. i've also included the latest moto fastboot binaries for linux, osx, and windows.

again, please read the op fully before proceeding to use this, especially if you're using rsd lite and don't want to upgrade motoboot and/or gpt.
[Moto X Android Development] stillthisguy:
You receive the "(bootloader) Variable not supported!" because you are using fastboot to flash instead of mfastboot.
[Moto X Android Development] StATicxTW0T:
That makes sense, always used fastboot with past three phones, thanks for the info :)
[Moto X Android Development] edthesped:
Now that you mention it I didn't get the message when I flashed system.img with msfastbot. FWIW I don't notice any real difference between this and 4.4 . Am I missing something?
[Moto X Android Development] mslam02:
So to clarify, I dont need to revert anything back to stock before flashing this through fastboot? (I can retain my tether hack, Xposed framework, Viper4andriod, etc. while flashing?) I'd like to flash while retaining user data and also not flashing the motoboot parts nor gpt.

So if all is well, can my commands look like this (lines striked out are commands i would NOT do):

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

fastboot flash logo logo.bin

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

fastboot erase modemst1

fastboot erase modemst2

fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase userdata

fastboot erase customize

fastboot erase clogo

fastboot oem fb_mode_clear

Does this look right? And, I'm wondering if I need to flash a new logo (3rd line) and i'm curious if the last 3 are needed as well?

Thanks in advance.
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
all you really need are boot, system, modem, and fsg. epecially if you're coming from 4.4. everything else is optional, but added for completeness.

you can look at the xml file to determine fastboot commands to use:

fastboot flash <partition> <filename>
[Moto X Android Development] edthesped:
.

Above is what I I did and all went well.

I discovered a few welcome fixes since instlalling. USB OTG now works and an issue I was having, popping sounds while streaming music via bluetooth headphones with wifi enabled seems to be fixed as well. Also, battery life seems to be much improved, granted the phone has pretty much been sitting on my desk but the battery life still far exceeds any smart phone I've owned to date.

edit: I see there is an updated fxz, is there any reason I should re install this? My thought is no but I'm not sure if critical changes have been made.
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
the new fxz includes the latest moto fastboot binaries, motoboot parts, and an unedited xml file. those are the only differences.
[Moto X Android Development] cvhovey:
I'm thinking to do the same. Just want to confirm that Active Display/Notifications working fine this way ... as I'd like to check out 4.4.2 before commiting to it by flashing OTA.
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
it turns out the reason i was having issues with active display was because i was still on the 4.2.2 motoboot/gpt. once i flashed to full 4.4 and applied the 4.4.2 update, everything worked fine.

if you're on 4.4 motoboot/gpt, you probably don't need to flash 4.4.2 motoboot/gpt. then again, if you're on an unlocked device, there's no harm in flashing motoboot/gpt, since you should be able to downgrade by just not flashing the downgraded motoboot/gpt.

upgrading motoboot/gpt really only affects locked devices.
[Moto X Android Development] rebretz000:
Thanks for this. Just made a huge mistake with my phone. I forgot I had side loaded the 4.4.2 leak on my phone then I flashed Nitro's Eclipse Blur 4.4 ROM to see if it would still work. Well I then completely erased everything and was going to RSD back to complete 4.4, start over and take the OTA. Oops can't downgrade.
[Moto X Android Development] Q9Nap:
exactly the kind of thing this is for :)

btw, if you're unlocked i think you can flash back to 4.4, just don't flash motoboot or gpt from 4.4.

if you feel like trying it out, please post your results...
[Moto X Android Development] rebretz000:
I'll try that tomorrow.

I originally tried to RSD the entire thing back to 4.4

I'll mess around a lot tomorrow.

I just fastbooted the new modem to my other Dev Edition running Eclipse 4.4, seems okay.
