[General Questions and Answers] diper07:
As we all know android is open source everything in android can be customized. Miui and many other roms have proved this by making roms in which notification bars, menus etc are way so much customized and different from AOSP rom.

Why dont developers make ditto copy of iOS 7 custom rom with all the visuals animations same as like iOS 7 ?

They dont make it because its illegal? or no one got time to make this kind of rom?
[General Questions and Answers] Kemcy:
I think it's too hard to make a dedicated ROM than just some of the themes or launchers.
[General Questions and Answers] LabBoy97:
Yeah been trying to find iOS custom ROM but it always a launcher
[General Questions and Answers] Shinkumara:
Because IOS was closed source, it's hard to port or copy perfectly into android
[General Questions and Answers] |>/\nte:
I think it's because the ios isn't an open source operating system, and apple wouldn't support something like this, so it's very hard to extract the necessary files. Because of these 2 reasons, no one is even trying to get a system dump from iphones. At least that's what I believe....still, the android is much better.
[General Questions and Answers] AlfasMP:
I am sure Ios is not a free rom . It is developed and controllable by apple .

It is not an open source project . So copying is illeagel .

Apple is more strict than other providers .

Click thanks if I helped
[General Questions and Answers] Darkne255:
Because IOS is not open source so every attemp to copy what they do in IOS7 is illegal

Any working TWRP or CWM recovery for KK?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinninbsod:
Nope might not be for awhile
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AyDee:
You can flash one of the stock rooted Kk custom roms with the patched kernel that keeps recovery, but you can't root or install recovery over already installed Kk. Kk? :laugh:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thackoon:
Wonder how long it will be.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JRJ442:
Long time. Possibly never for custom recoveries. LG is supposedly using the same security as Samsung now to block the Loki exploit. They barely have Safestrap and still no ability to flash custom AOSP ROMs 6 months later. The only way will more than likely be the workaround we have now.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinninbsod:
Are you serious Knox you've got to be kidding me why is this a popular thing with android phone manufacturers its sad android is becoming as locked down as iOS I get the feeling that soon very few phones will be Rootable except for very few devices they really are using Knox or some variant or something similar
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JRJ442:
I'm not sure exactly what it is. Not Knox but maybe something similar. I read that somewhere anyway. I agree that soon there's going to be very few phones that can be rooted. Nexus devices and that's it I think. People these days want their devices secure. Root is essentially a flaw in the devices security. A backdoor if you will. I guess the thought process is that if there's a vulnerability, it'll be easier for hackers to get ahold of your vital information. Companies don't want the bad press of their devices being easily hacked into via a fake hot spot at Starbucks or whatever. So they lock them down. Try to patch up every possible security vulnerability there is. Sucks for power users like us, who want root, custom recoveries and all. In the end, sadly we're in the minority. We're gonna be forced to buy Google Play Edition or Nexus devices within the next few years. That's my take on it anyway.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinninbsod:
Couldn't agree more
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gnarfsan:
If that is the case, then the Android adventure is over for me. At least theres usually a jailbreak for every iOS version and there is only one security system to attack there as opposed to Samsungs, LGs, HTCs etc. security system on Android.

Sad.

[MENTION=5268115]spinninbsod[/MENTION] I'm hoping that since VZW now sells the N7 in store, maybe we'll have a chance at getting the next Nexus phone as well. If we do, its going to be an instabuy for me. All this locked down stuff is too much. We're just lucky we can downgrade and get back to the JB aboot, so we can still have custom recovery. Samsung won't allow downgrades, so that option is out the window for them. I'm glad LG didn't do that to us at least.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinninbsod:
I know how the Samsung users feel I had an s4 before my g2 I hated it great hardware but to locked down I refuse to buy any Samsung or non developer friendly product hopefully the next nexus device will have better battery life
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toss3:
I don't see how Knox would in any way keep you from flashing a custom recovery + rom on the S4? Plenty of AOSP roms available.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] spinninbsod:
That is for mdk firmware before Knox the only custom ROM available for mj7/mk2 builds with knox, firmwares is hyperdrive ROM a stock based touchwhiz ROMs trust me I know this there is no recovery other than safestrap
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zilberlex:
So back when i got my nexus 4 with a stock 4.2(or 4.2.x) The first thing I did was to root it with, im pretty sure i used this guide

Now im pretty sure that after 4.3 came out i didnt do the steps to root it back, I might have though, and i wasnt sure on the status of my custom recovery either(nor the bootloader), now please forgive my ignorance for forgetting what exactly the bootloader is and what does unlocking it provide on the technical level.

Anyway my phone works well, with 4.4.2 installed, problem is i need it rooted, now i try to launch SU but it tells me there was a problem and it might have something with 4.3 . So before going here i tried to to launch custom recovery, but it says "no command" there, now im a little worried.

I might be left without a recovery.

The phone launches normally though.

As it stands the issue might be a little over my head, and I not sure on how to approach the whole situation as it seems a little complicated.

So an explanation on what have might have happened with all the nexus updates, and a clarification if its safe to flash a custom recovery the normal way? And how do i proceed to reroot the device from there(since im aware its a different matter than rooting from scratch).

Thanks in advance and hope I didnt miss anything i could do for myself before asking here.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weston109:
I have rooted my Samsung Note 3 with a custom rom running Jellybean 4.3 with clockwork mod recovery. I have tripped knox due to rooting it. When Kitkat came out March 17th 2014, I wanted to upgrade and go back to official firmware with Kitkat to try it out. Since I have rooted my phone to run viper4android audio kernel I am unable to do an official OTA or Kies update. That said I went about downloading the new Bell Canada Note 3 firmware 4.4.2. I was told to flash a Jellybean Bell Firmware first before flashing the Kitkat version to avoid boot loops or other problems. Trying to do so with Odin in download mode ended in failure just trying to flash jellybean stock. Didnt get that far really. It showed a fail in the Note 3 screen to this effect in read this message (sw rev check fail : sbl1 fused 2 binary 1) . Odin didnt load like I am usually use to seeing by unzipping the firmware into a folder and adding it to the PDA field. After I loaded the .tar file (md5) file into pda it checked it and then told me its finished successfully but the next line it said CS Fail. After hitting start it said fail instantly in the odin window and on the Note 3 I did see a bar showing me the progress of install for 1 second until odin told me of the fail. Now my Note is in download mode and can't get past this problem to get it running again! Please any help would be greatfull to getting me past this problem and onto Kitkat or even back to Jellybean. Any other questions you may have I will supply you the info.

Thanks

you cant flash back to 4.3 when you on 4.4.2 and did you succeed when flashing 4.4.2?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] weston109:
Flashing

I havent been able to do anything. I was on Jellybean 4.3.2 custom rom with a custom recovery and tried to flash it back to a stock version of Jellybean before the update to Kitkat. I didnt get that far to even try flashing Kitkat because flashing Jellybean Canadian stock rom was unsuccessful with the errors I mentioned in my earlier post. Now I am stuck in download mode and unable to flash using odin.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anhtn5991:
I think you can power if off by pressing the power button for a few seconds. And then flash a custom recovery, reboot and flash a Kit Kat custom rom via Odin or Custom recovery. Hope it helps.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nexxusty:
Knox was tripped. You said it yourself. Go and read up on Knox.

The answer will be very clear afterwards. It's quite clear to me.

Also, don't take this the wrong way.... but you probably should not have done any of this my friend. Your skill level makes this obvious.

I suggest not getting a Samsung phone next time as Knox is hard to get around (it's possible, I was rooted on 4.3 and I am now on 4.4.2 stock flashed with Odin and Knox is still 0x0).

Hello!

I am new on this forum and i have a few questions. I bought Mda compact from German T-mobile and I changed the language to English with I-mate Jam rom from XDA-wiki.

The problem now is that all the time zones and units in the jam are American and I live in Europe. So AM and PM time in no god for me because I am used to 0-24 hours and so on and on.

Which Rom would be best for me???

The second question is: which application I should use to make my tasks show on homescreen in the same way than the calendar appointments are. I would like that at least 3 “duedate – today” tasks are always shown on the screen, like the three next appointments in calendar are.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stjake:
I love Cyanogenmod, very much so. I downloaded the stable 10.1 build for my phone and it was mostly rock solid. When 10.2.1 come around I was pumped. I downloaded it and immediately encountered force closes out the bum. I switched back and a month later tried again. It was a slightly better experience as I realized I forgot to flash the 4.3 Gapps with my original attempt, but force closes cluttered my screen daily. I want to be able to upgrade, but the ROM just seems completely unstable for my phone. Has anyone experienced these things on their phone? Has anyone fixed these problems? Can anyone recommend the most stable and most up-to-date ROM even though stable and up-to-date rarely go hand in hand.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CWGSM3VO:
Look in the CM11 thread, the nightlies are pretty stable for the most part and most us using it use it as a daily driver. You MUST perform a full wipe when installing a ROM, even when moving between point releases. If not, you'll encounter problems. GApps must also be flashed after the ROM has been flashed (assuming you want to use Google)
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stjake:
Yeah I figured that I need to wipe everything and install the proper GApps after my first attempt at 10.2 which to my credit I did do on my second try. Is there a particular nightly release that seems more stable than the rest? To put this in more context, I travel alone from college to various other places often a bit and my college is situated in almost a black hole of service for Verizon so I tend to take reliability over cutting edge even though I very badly want the newest and greatest. I'm on spring break so I'll try the newest nightly and back up my phone. Luckily I have a ton of space on my phone so I can always have a stable back up ready to be flashed on the fly.
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CWGSM3VO:
By their very nature, Nightlies are not considered stable in the strictest sense of the word. For most of us, they have been. But if you need reliability over cutting-edge, I'd stick with 10.2 or one of the CM11 Milestone builds (however, the RAZR HD only has one that I know of, CM11-M2).

My personal take is that given you're in an area with poor reception, choosing CM11 over CM10.2 (for example) wouldn't give you any better results over the other. Signal is signal.

My suggestion, given your circumstances and criteria, would be to stick with 10.2 but do a FULL backup via Recovery of your stock ROM (or whatever you're using instead of CyanognMod) and then do a FULL wipe of the following (and only these):

- user data

- /system partition

- /cache partition

- dalvik cache (usually found under Advanced in CWM recoveries)

Your phone will be in an unusable state after this. From here, still in Recovery, flash CM10.2 and then the appropriate GApps (make sure you choose the right one; a 4.4.2 GApps isn't suitable for a 4.3 OS) and reboot. If memory serves, CM10.2 is Android 4.3.1

If you're still having problems, you can restore your backup in Recovery or worst case, RSDLite the appropriate SBF for your phone to return to the carrier-stock ROM. But be aware if you chose the RSDLite path, you will lose everything. Basically it'll be like day-1 when you got the phone ;)

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] JBaxendale:
I just got a new Note 10.1 2014. I haven't yet rooted it though I plan to.

There must be a simple answer to this though I can't find it.* I have three Note 2s, a Note 3, and have been routing phones for many years going back to early HTC Windows phones. But alas I haven't found what must be a self evident to most.

How do I get rid of this persistent constant Samsung advertisement for the Note 10.1 features.* When I go into sleep (by this I mean push the power button briefly -- not power off) or close the lid so the screen goes dark, within a few seconds the screen starts up again with this never ending advertisement that begins with a helicopter flying and then proceeds with video of every feature of the device - at least from Samsung's perspective. So last night I put the device to sleep with a full battery charge and didn't realize the screen was reactivated by this b annoyance and was on all night even though the cover was closed. In the morning the device was off with zero battery.

I don't know if they consider this a screen saver or what but I can't find how to turn it off.

Can someone help?* Thank you very much.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schindler069:
Hey guys, I'm having some wakelock issues.

I run greenify on draining apps and have some unused apps/processes frozen, but still have these issues.

So my questions are:

1) Could my battery drain be wifi/3g related? sometime it seems so, sometimes not.

2) Are these immense amounts of wakelocks normal? Audiomix could possibly be because of broken mp3 songs, have them already checked but not deleted. but i didn't even listen to music on this battery cycle.

3) WLD seems to lack some processes. What could cause it to not display the missing ones?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JRJ442:
I highly doubt you have an issue here. Your battery doesn't look to be draining much at all. You're at 1 day and 3 hours according to BBS, 1 day and 18 hours according to your phone, and your highest wake lock is less than 30 minutes. That looks like Media, probably from music. That's pretty damn good for 27 hours or more I'd say. There's this misconception that all wake locks are bad. That's not the case. Wake locks are going to happen. Its unavoidable. If you had a wake lock that was at 3 hours or more I'd worry. But you don't, so I don't think you have an issue. Just enjoy your phone.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Schindler069:
Never said, that i think they are bad :P

I just wondered, because 3k+ is quite a high number and i didn't find something i could compare it too. So i didnt know if it was normal or not.
