Ok i'll try turning the 3G off (seeing as my SIM doesnt have 3G capability anyway! lol) How do i go about doing that?!

I do get full signal in places yes, its just the signal is utter crap on this phone compared to all of my past ones! Compared to an SPV C500 & C600 its rubbish!

either way, I must say I have no problem with phone, but acknowledge many report poor phone performance.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamessuperfun:
Sorry if this is the wrong section, I figured ROMs would be better but I can't post there, I was told to post here.

I'm new to all this ROM stuff, but I *REALLY* like the look of some of them. I'm good with technology, but when it comes down to (what seems like) a million terms and such to learn and install (what seems like) a hundred things to get it in here, I get confused.

For this reason, Cyanogenmod's One-Click installer appeals to me. I'd love to use Cyanogenmod when it's stable on my Moto G, but I can't wrap my head around some of this stuff, and I'm terrified something will go wrong. I couldn't seem to find an answer though, will the One-Click Installer support the Moto G when it's stable? Do all devices (assuming they officially support Cyanogenmod)?

Thanks :)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eemgee:
I've never done it on moto g yet but have on other phones and on tables and trust me it's very easy to install the old way.

You can't really go wrong, once you are rooted and backed up. And there is good tools for that on here.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamessuperfun:
Still read about the risks of bricking the device, would rather not go down that route. I'm just not confident enough.

Plus rooting requires doing a fair bit just on the moto G when I last Googled it, otherwise I would have. On my Huawei Ascend G510 (last phone) it was literally 'Plug in USB cable, run program, click 'Root', '
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mokkami:
In my opinion it is the better way to get first confident with those things.

A one click installer is nice, sure.

But i think it is always better to understand what is really happening behind a one click installer by learning doing the unlocking, rooting and flashing steps manually. If something goes wrong, then you have learned what to do in case of a bad flash or if you wanna go back to stock.

Sure many devices got easy installers which made life much more simple. But the more the tools made it simplier the more helpless the people got when something went wrong.

Sure you can brick your device in one or the other way. And i had also a few hours in the last years when the sweat was on my forehead. But i could always come out of these situations. My expereience says, correct me somebody if i am wrong, that only by flashing roms you will hardly brick your device.

I think many people do just something, whitout reading really about that what they are doing. They first do something and then they start reading. Often also steps are described in the OP and people are still asking the same questions. That shows, that there are people but they do not really read carefully what is writte in a guide/tutorial/howto. It is not really neccessary to go too deep into theory for flashing devices. But the basic steps, are e.g. how fastboot or adb works. What a recovery is, how it can be used and so on...

If i am not wrong then this was also a reason why the CyanogenMod installer was removed vom Google Play Store.

If you don't know how to help yourself, then this is only a one way direction. And here we have 5 millions users at XDA. I guess other 100 of millions do not even now about XDA or similar sites where they can find help.

Just my 5 cents......
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamessuperfun:
From knowing computers, I agree to some extent. I do want to learn this, but it feels like a load to learn at once, and I would say the same thing had someone said the same thing about computers. (Well no, I wouldn't, because by installing an OS it's pretty difficult to 'brick' a computer- but it's good to understand anyway.)

I have learned a fair amount about the ROMs, but when you start talking about unlocking the bootloader, flashing recovery and the works then dangle a one click installer under my nose... You see my point?

The one-click seems better.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mokkami:
I think this is exactly the point. Installing an operating system is much easier than flashing a rom. Actually the only thing what can happen on a pc is that you install the os on the wrong partition and you could loose your data or you delete the wrong partition. Okay you have to know how t bring your pc to the point to start from a CD or usb stick. As you said, you can not brick your pc in that way. But that is the point i think.

As i said before. In my knowledge the Cyanogenmod installer is a one way direction. Once the normal user want to go back he is in trouble. And that is the thing what the most users will not understand. But when the trouble is there then.... then, then they understand .... :) they are f**ked if they do not know to find help.

Yeah, but two different persons, two different point of views.

I accept yours. But i don't share the same opinion. At least not yet.

Maybe when the day comes and all that flashing stuff is made for the public. (What i doubt.)

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jamessuperfun:
I don't mean to sound, I don't know, like I'm taking the community for granted, but I know of XDA and some other websites, so wouldn't I (highly likely) find help if I had a problem? (I'm a little worried how that'll come across, I mean it as a praise for places like this)

I think however the one-click installer is to target the average person.

I did see the list of supported devices, but the Moto G is still in nightly builds, so I figured it would come in stable (if it does), which I mentioned in my first post- do most (or all) supported devices get support for the installer?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jtj1825:
So I was jumping from Viper to MMuzzy's Carbon build and all of a sudden I am now Voice Roaming. I know I wiped all partitions including formatting the system and I've flashed a multitude of roms and never had this occur before.

I could use some advice on how to repair this. My IMEI has a specific number but my IMEI SV and phone number both show all zeros. I tried doing an RUU and even taking an OTA but still no luck.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
Flash stock rooted ROM and stock recovery.

While on stock ROM and recovery, perform a factory reset from settings.

Backup anything important first.

Its the factory reset from stock recovery that will restore the Vzw NV partitions for the radio to function properly again.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jtj1825:
Will do, will update in a few

UPDATE: Thank you so much SantoD, you the man, worked perfectly and it looks like it may have fixed the constant 4G drops I was having beforehand as well.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
No problem, glad to help.

Yeah this is always the best thing to perform if you are having data drop issues, going to 3G often when you know you should have 4G, stuck in roaming with no data, etc..

It doesn't fix any ROM related issues or problems with a Roms ril, etc but it will restore the device to fully functional radios.

Then when you flash back to a known working ROM, you should continue to keep a stable connection, unless as mentioned above, the ROM has its own issues.

Anyhow, glad that sorted you out.

Hi All,

I was trying to root Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S6102. However, I got an error "failed to mount /sdcard" when trying to click the option "Install from SDCARD".

Afterwards, I started the devices and gone to root(/) directory of my phone using ES File Explorer I saw that /sdcard is actually a shortcut to /mnt/sdcard. Can anyone tell me what can I do to resolve the issue and root the device. So that I can remove bloatwares?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XSPatches:
In preparation for the update 4.3 I would like to ask a few questions. The Xperia SP is my first android phone, first android device for that matter; And being someone who always enjoys to tinker with things I quickly delved into the world of rooting and custom kernals.

But there are a few things I'm unsure about and would like to ask a few questions:

1) When I update to 4.3 will it erase many settings? Such as contacts, apps, root and bootloader? If so, can I use the CWM backup I have to restore all my previous settings whilst keep the 4.3 update?

The reasoning behind this is I had actually managed to root my phone without unlocking the bootloader. I had not known this at the time, I didn't understand the steps fully and thought I had unlocked the bootloader, which led my trying to install a custom kernal. (Of coarse this softbricked my phone, but it was easily fixable). So off I go to unlock the bootloader. I did not realise that doing so would wipe all settings on my phone. I panicked. It was 4am, my phone was back to being as fresh as a new born and I needed my phone for work in 3 hours. So I restored a backup I made with CWM and lo and behold, all my settings where back. Wallpaper and all. Even better, the bootloader and stayed unlocked.

2) What will happen to my custom kernal if I upgrade? I'm currently using Doomlords custom kernal and I really need to increase the sound levels on my phone (The xperia has some god awful sound levels, always so quiet). If it does remove the update will I be able to instal the custom Kernal again or will I have to search for a new one specifically for my phone and version?
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teddy74eva:
1. Things like settings, apps and contacts will remain the same after update, but you will lose root (and your bootloader WILL BE unlocked coz you unlocked it before, right?)

2. Your custom kernel will be overwritten by the stock kernel from the update and you have to search for custom kernel made for 4.3

---------- Post added at 09:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 PM ----------

Ad.1 I dont think you can restore CWM backup from your previous rom, it can cause bootloops or FCs, but you can try :)

Hello,

I am posting about an android app I made and I am looking for feedback and thoughts on the app. It is a children's game so if you have kids I am sure they will love it.

You can download it here

Kids get to match their favorite toys and match the alphabet. Hopefully they discover exciting new things and will be entertained for hours. If you get a chance to sit down with them and play it, please tell me your thoughts and their reaction to the game. How old are they? Did they get stuck anywhere and could not back out? Do they like the voices and the music?

This will give me some valuable feedback and information for improvement.

Thanks!

Hello to all,

I'm having an issue on the latest 4.3 update from Sony, as well as on all of the roms based on it.

When I get into my car (FORD), I get the notification that SYNC (the FORD in-car bluetooth system) is trying to access my messages (this is normal as it is supposed to). Every time, I tick the "always allow" box but the phone doesn't remember this and the notifiaction comes every time I start the car.

For info, I do not have this issue on any of the 4.4 based roms.

Does anyone have a solution for this?

[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Original Android De] crpalmer:
The cwmr that I am using is the one that gets built by running a full CM build using the repos I pointed toward. If you can build CM then you should be able to build a recovery that works on at least my tablet. However, I am definitely not sharing a build because of the fact that it is based on the hlte kernel and could be causing serious problems.

I'm going to try to merge the official source into the hlte kernel and see if I can get that working. If so, it will be a fair bit less risky (although it is still risky because random people like me are playing with how the hardware gets used including voltages, current, etc.).

If you were trying to build a recovery yourself, yeah, you probably ran into problems because the bootloader requires a boot.img with a device tree and the DT needs to be version 2 format which is quite new.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Original Android De] crpalmer:
Updated the kernel link. It is a merge of the KK_NA source released by samsung into the hlte kernel from cyanogenmod. It builds but the display is still borked (the left hand of the screen now turns back on, but the right does not...).

OpenVPN

Hi,

Open VPN does work in Android but not with stock software. You have to use an app like OpenVPN for Android (search for it on the Google Play). I use it to connect home through Tomato firmware on a Netgear router. Works flawlessly. You have to notice that only TUN mode is working on Android.

Regards,

gmag11
[Networking] calc:
Not sure what you're talking about "stock'"... but openVPN app does NOT work.

The open vpn on the nighthawk is TAP based, android only supports TUN. This is the whole purpose of my post. Perhaps i should have made that more clear. Any nighthawk owners want to chime in?
[Networking] gmag11:
With "stock" I mean default Android VPN service.

It it possible to use TAP on Android but there is some (expert) work to do. It is not easy, at least I've tried several times on my SGSII with CM11 without success. The default on Android (and recommended for remote access) is TUN. With TAP routing is easier but it generates more traffic as it is a layer 2 protocol and all broadcast messages (such as ARP) will flow throug VPN.

Here in XDA you can find some info about configuring TAP. But there is not much threads because it is recommended to use TUN.

I'm using a NetGear WNR3500Lv2 router with TOMATO firmware, what is far better than NetGear firmware. You can try it. Search "Tomato by Shibby" on Google to see if you router is supported.
