Great job! It seems Active is going to have more roms to choose from :). I assume with dirty porting it could be possible to run quite a alot of Qualcom S4 roms :)

[MENTION=5150212]mythi[/MENTION] [MENTION=3876105]spegelius[/MENTION]: i love you guys :D

Edit: Just installed and here are the results:

i was on spegelius slimrom 4.3.1. Formated the system partition, cache and dalvik and installed kitkat.

EVERYTHING is working. I had no need to reinstall and reconfigure the phone.

Working: WLAN, LTE, 3G, Phone, Camera, Bluetooth, Deep Sleep, Xposed, greenify experimental features, play store, network location

(Had a fc in the Clock App. I think its because of using the profile function that is not existing anymore. After clearing clock data everything is fine now)

Christmas ;)

Thanks again both of you. Great work!!!
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] carmatic:
so similar... much confusion!

downloading now... finally kitkat for the sgs4a!

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] rumms:
wow cool dude.

One Question:

Can I reinstall apps (like Whatsapp etc.) without getting problems, which I backuped with Titanium Backup in 4.3.1 (10.2-20131219-UNOFFICIAL-jactiveltexx)?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] mythi:
Yes you can ...i did a dirty flash from 4.3.1 to SlimKat and wiped cache and dalvik it booted :p and everything is working :p
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] rumms:
Hi mythi. I did the same. Runs without problems by using these gapps... :good:
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] mythi:
thanks ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] karlmx:
many thx it works like a charm !

the bug of the video recording is simply during recording no ?

The resulted video is not pixelised, no ?

[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] mythi:
Yes sir
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] rumms:
Just found out, that the clock-app isn´t working. Can you confirm?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] 6783:
Same for, clock at statusbar and lockscreen always freezed and don't show real time. How i can fix it?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] rumms:
Try this, it worked for me:

Go to Settings -> SlimCenter -> SlimSizer -> Delete Deskclock.apk

Download this clock and install it. Reboot.

Maybe you should backup with CWM first.

Please give Feedback.
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] mythi:
i think that slim gapps (if you guys installed it) has something to do with clock app :silly:
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] alirey:
Did you try cleaning your clock data?
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] mythi:
ya ... i experinced it on my phone too ..thanks;)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] rumms:
Found next error: Can´t open Settings -> Security. Who can confirm?

This has of course nothing to do with gapps ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] alirey:
Is working for me...
[Galaxy S 4 Active Android Development] rumms:
Is security maybe an apk? Can I find it anywhere? Maybe I need the settings-apk, because it says: Settings stopped after clicking on security.
[General Questions and Answers] kidd.Rage:
Dont really know where to put this question.

I cant download any file (even in android market) because I uninstalled ( with root) the preload app called Downloads.

Is a basic app and I couldnt find it on the web. I uninstalled it because I thought it was unnecesary, (ES File Explorer)

So its a noob error. What can I do? I was thinking if anybody can share the APK

thx !

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gingerneil:
Afternoon all.

I love my N5 and am keen to stick with it - however I have an issue with Bluetooth.

I am a keen runner and user a Garmin Forerunner 220 GPS. This has the ability to pair with a Garmin app using BTLE to transfer run data. However, Garmin are saying that there are underlying issues with the N5 implementation of BTLE that makes this unreliable - resulting in a need to re-pair the devices in the app everytime I turn BT off, or reboot the phone. Due to where I work, I have to do this every day and its a pain!

More details here: https://forums.garmin.com/showthread.php?75976-Compatible-Devices

and some of the reasons for the issues here (I was pointed to this link by Garmin in the thread above): http://au.ibtimes.com/articles/533189/20140107/nexus-5-7-android-4-kitkat.htm#.UxCieF5yFvY

So my question.... is there a ROM available that would give me the same underlying bluetooth stack as the Samsung phones that Garmin declare as compatible (S3/S4, Note2/Note3) ? Would this mean trying to put a pre-KitKat ROM onto the N5 (is this even possible?), or is there a KitKat based ROM that has the same underlying bluetooth stack as the Samsung devices ?

(ps I'm happy flashing ROMs etc. The Samsung devices I have had in the past had a different ROM most weeks! N5 is currently stock but unlocked and rooted).

[Moto X Q&A] AbstractXart:
So one of my buddies took the OTA update for 4.4.2 while being rooted on 4.4 with TWRP as his recovery. Now he is stuck in an endless bootloop. Any idea what we could do to bring his phone back to life?

By the way, he is on Sprint and has his bootloader unlocked

Any advice would help!

Thanks.
[Moto X Q&A] patspdaphone:
This happened to me too.

Just flash the latest firmware for your device at http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0

Then accept the OTA.

Re-install TWRP.

Hope this works for you too.
[Moto X Q&A] AbstractXart:
So to accept the OTA, did you go through the bootloader/recovery and flash it, or were you able to turn on your phone and accept it? Sorry I don't have his phone on me right now otherwise I would have done it :P.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
Don't flash the full SBF..

boot the phone into fastboot mode... mfastboot erase cache... the reboot the phone. that will remove the OTA zip file from chache and stop the boot loop.

The bootloop is because the phone has TWRP on it rather than stock recovery.

To take the OTA properly, use mfastboot to reflash stock recovery only. Also have him undo any hacks that might have touched system files or the OTA will fail, (mfastboot system will also get /system back to normal)...
[Moto X Q&A] AbstractXart:
We actually just ended up clearing the system cache and that seemed to do the trick o.O.

I incredibly appreciate all the info! If anyone makes this silly mistake, all you need to do is clear the cache and everything works as intended.
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
until the next time the OTA downloads and tries to install ;)
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
KangKat wtih Faux kernel? So you are not running the stock rom? I'm suprised the actually OTA installed.

I don't know anything about that rom, or kernel to begin to tell you how to fix this situation, short of reflashing your rom
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
He probably flashed the "Flashable 4.4.2 ZIP" that is flashable through TWRP.

[MENTION=360376]Globalrebel[/MENTION] :

You need to try to get into bootloader (AP Fastboot) mode. Try holding the VOL DOWN while the phone reboots (vibrates). Make sure the phone is unplugged from USB. If you can access fastboot, your best best would probably to flash the entire SBF back to stock.

Always check here first before you do something like trying to flash a stock update on a custom rom. We would have quickly informed you that this is ill-advised.

Good Luck
[Moto X Q&A] Globalrebel:
Ok, so I have held down the power button, and then when vibrating starts, I hold down vol down button. Then, it vibrates 2 times. What now? (Sorry, I'm freaked out as this is my only phones :) )

How can i check to see if it is actually in Fastboot mode? Since my screen doesn't show ANYTHING at all?

I started up an ADB server and connected my phone and tried "adb devices" but my phone isn't listed.

---------- Post added at 08:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 AM ----------

any ideas?

I just checked device manager and it shows "ADB Interface" and then MOT Single ADB Interface.

But its not showing up under devices when running command "ADB Devices" in CMD
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Fastboot getvar all

If you get a response with that, proceed with the entire Sbf manual method as listed in the return to stock thread.
[Moto X Q&A] Globalrebel:
I got it to show some info after running the command. Now, I have the following guide open . .

[GUIDE][VIDEO] Moto X - Return to 100% stock (using RSD Lite OR manual flash)

But I don't see anything in RSDLite after running it and clicking "Show Device"

Can I just to the manual method?

For manual method, should I copy all the files into the same folder as my mfastboot.exe?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Yes,I suggested manual method in last post. Faster and easier.

Yes extract the sbf to the folder containing mfastboot and fastboot.

The only thing you will do differently is one of the last lines that says carrier vzw, change it to carrier sprint.

Make sure u are using the 4.4.2 sprint sbf.

Good luck

No water damage, and the phone was literally working perfectly fine 15 minutes ago. Just all of a sudden stopped showing the screen :(
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
Bummer. You appear to have used the correct procedure.

This looks to be a hardware failure :/

Sorry, I don't have any further troubleshooting techniques for you...
[Moto X Q&A] Globalrebel:
Its all good. I think the screen just decided to die on me?!?! Which REALLY SUCKS! I'm still in my 1 year warranty policy. After fastbooting the original 4.4.2, will motorola know I did anything to the phone? IE, can they know I flashed anything?
[Moto X Q&A] samwathegreat:
If you unlocked the bootloader they know it. Technically your warranty is void... But they might replace/fix it anyways. Don't mention it and see what happens. Let us know.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] biglunn:
Hello guys!

I got my MDA Vario last week, and I am very much impressed with it!

I got the MDA Vario brand new without a contract and my intention is to use it with one of those O2 Genie PAYG SIM cards. So.... after much reading this excellent forum I figured out that I would need to unlock the SIMlock on the Vario. Got hold of the Lokiwiz utility, followed the advice on these forums, and tested it with the Orange SIM in my regular phone, and hey presto.... MY PY PHONE IS UNLOCKED! :D

Next step - to remove all T-Mobile customisations. Again, I had a simple bit of advice from one of you good folk - hard reset, then soft reset when the phone starts to install customisations and now all the pink girlie stuff has gone! Only reminant of T-Mobile left on the phone is the logo on the phone dial keypad.

My thoughts are now with upgrading the ROM. T-Mobile have been very slow with updating their ROM package -a new one is apparently due very soon. Now.... in preparation of installing a new ROM, Ive CID unlocked my phone. I would really like to know which ROM I should upgrade to - there are so many out there! As the phone has been CID & Sim Unlocked, does the phone remained unlocked irrespective of what ROM I install? Can I install a T-Mobile ROM after changing it to another?

As I intend to mostly use an O2 PAYG SIM in it, would it be better to use a new 02 update? If so, which one? Or do I go for another ROM? All very confusing! Finally, Ive heard that I cannot browse the net via GPRS on an 02 PAYG SIM. Is that true? Do I need to flash an ExtROM too?

I know Im asking a lot here and am being a bit of a pain in the backside, but I would really appreciate any and as much advice as possible as I realy dont want to end up with a dead phone! Many thanks in advance!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] meschle:
Hi, yes you could wait for the new rom and i am a believer in sticking with your manufacturer roms because many of the posts here seem to people experimenting with different roms and it all going wrong - lol.

But if you do upgrade proberly the commonest choice is the aku2 qtek rom that i use

download here ftp://xda:xda@xda-developers.com/Wi...digy_2170702_21707102_20710_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe

and the o2 aku2rom not a bad idea too, but without the o2 extras.

Yes you could then upgrade to the t-mobile rom then but often you need to unlock again with lockiwiz 0.3a.

PAYG o2 will browse internet but msn etc.. does not work.

btw yes you are a pain in the arse but then most people here are!! :lol:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] biglunn:
Cheers Mark! Nice to have some basic advice - very reassuring for a thicko newbie like me! :oops:

Well... I couldnt wait for the new T-Mobile ROM and went ahead with the upgrade with the Qtek upgrade you suggested.

Was a little tricky at first because the upgrade wouldnt happen (port failing to open) but I had a few programs running in the background on my desktop PC and shut them all down so that I had a `Clean` PC. The upgrade process was then as smooth as a babys bottom.

MDA Vario is running really well - well worth the upgrade IMO. Everything seems quicker and generally better. Only problem I have is with wifi - it seems to take ages to make a connection with my PC (ad-hoc peer to peer) whereas on the original T-Mob ROM it was very quick. Any ideas here?

I read that you say I would need Lokiwiz 0.3a to install the AKU2 T-Mob ROM when it is eventually released. I was under the impression that once the PDA was unlocked (lokiwiz 0.2b) I wouldnt need to unlock it again. Is it different with the very latest T-Mob ROM? Can I not revert (downgrade) to the original T-Mob and then upgrade to the new T-Mob ROM? Ive not heard of lokiwiz 0.3a being out yet - would it be as simple as unlocking with lokiwiz 0.2b?

Finally, how on earth do I get the latest 02 ROM? I need to enter my 02 mobile number and IMEI to download it. Do I need lokiwiz 0.3a to install that or any other current ROM?

Cheers for your friendly advice. :D

Al.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] meschle:
Hi, no problem - glad to help. :)

Lokiwiz 0.3a is out see here http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=50768

For some reason when upgrading (in think it renews cid/spl) to aku2 rom seems to lock again - i had to unlock my qtek with above tool.

Yes you can go back to original rom - but if does not work use farias method of unlocking and downgrading rom (post is in this forum)

Most of the roms are in the wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard_Upgrades

including the o2 roms, but i would refrain from too much chopping and changing because you can destory the bootloader and then has to go back to the manufacturer.

Many reported problems with the wifi setting up - i would read some of the threads in the wizard forum if i was you. First thing to try is tweak wifi on device to wlan g and it may work better.

see registry tweaks here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard_Upgrades

btw good to hang out in the wizard forum too - you will learn alot of tips from there.

hi

i just got my mda vario and manage to unlocked the phone with lokiwiz03. i know my phone is now sim unlocked, but how do i check if it is cid unlock as well?

i am eager to flash the rom with the qtek version but i have no idea how to do it.

i know i must have my phone cid unlock in order to install a different rom, so do i just download the latest qtek rom, connect my device to usb and activesync it, and then just run the RUU?

i am really noob here.

cheers.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] snakeybidder:
Hi mate if i was you i would use MR CLEANS ROM i flashed with that and its excellent, tottaly clean with no tmobile crap and i didnt do anything with the cid so dont worry.

ftp://xda:xda@xda-developers.com/Uploads/Wizard/ROMS/MrClean_RUU_WIZARD_224_AKU23_WWE.zip

Just download this and run follow instructions, real easy. Good luck mate.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] praetorion:
thanks for the advice...i took a bold move and flash it with a qtek rom. works like a charm. before that i did cid unlock using lokiwiz02a, not lokiwiz03.

i will take a look at mr.clean rom at a later stage.

i notice that my imei number is different from the one in my box. does flashing the rom change it?

now my next task would be update to a better radio rom and check out the extension rom.

cheers.

Hi there, I'm about to flash my UK MDA Vario too.

I'm not sure to use the Mr clean one or the Qtek 2.17 version.

Before I do anything, which is better of the two?

Also, what settings to I need backed up? I have my txt msg service numbers, as well as voicemail. And all of my MMS & GPRS settings.

Am I to assume that all I have to do is input the settings into the device once it's been flashed?

Thanks
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] meschle:
The mr clean rom is a more advanced rom and has no extras. The qtek official rom is probably a safer install because its an official rom and many good reports of success and users pleased with the outcome.

Yes when you have flashed just input all those settings again.

Plus you can backup your voice tag database between hard resets by copying the file CommandModel1.bin found under the windows folder to your pc or to the memory card. After rom upgrade copy it back to your windows folder and all your voice tags are back!

Create backup of windows\start menu - most programs that are on the storage card dont need a reinstall.

Create copy of pim.vol in the root directory of the device - contains contact and appt information. After flash change the new pim.vol to pim.vo and copy and paste old pim.vol (use total commander or gsfinder file explorers for this) and soft reset and you will have info back.

Create backup of windows\favorites - for all your internet favorites.

That will make restore a bit quicker than otherwise.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Scottland:
Cheers for the info. I was actually thinking of trying the Mr. Clean one first, is there anything missing from this one, or is it just less stable?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] meschle:
Mr clean is just a clean rom without any of the manufacturers addons. It will probably run very well - its the flashing process with it that may not be as safe as an original rom and may possibly destroy your bootloader etc.. so you have a brick phone. I would always go for the safest option and would not suggest chopping and changing roms. Read the many users stories where everything goes wrong and the forum needs to help them out.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Scottland:
True, I didn't think about that. Thanks again. :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] snakeybidder:
Ive been using Mr clean rom for 1 week now and its excellent from my experience. Its tottaly clean and runs so fast!

By clean i mean it has no customizations as you will find on official roms. It flashed just like any other rom too. Easy as pie. Just my info as people would like to know.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Scottland:
I've just upped to the QTEK ROM, and I've a couple of problems, nothing too serious though I don't think?

Firstly, when making my GRPS connection - I can't seem to find anywhere to input the WAP Proxy settings?

Edit, sorted this one now

Secondly, when settinp up my MMS - I can't select connect via Picture Message in the settings, it's not there?

I'm guessing this is some other connection I have to make up?

Any idea guys?
