[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkennison:
You can get wallet on there no problem even with a mostly stock Android.( Yes ATT and some others block tap to pay with it. However, look around, it works and you can get it working fairly easy. I have it running now and used it a Home Depot in Atlanta earlier today ). PA and CM11 as well as some others will work with it just fine as well. Wallet does NOT require a secure element on any phone since KK. It's now done via card emulation at the server side by google.

I use Power User Edition ROM and it works just fine on it. Based on an international rom I belive where it IS available.

ISIS works fine on the ATT phone. You just need to get a newer SIM from them if you haven't already.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Keithgordon:
I am not familiar with Isis, I have Sprint and we dont even get PC Suite to back up our phones, we have to root our phones and use a custom recovery to backup and restore, we don't have a choice. Paranoid Android is one that I was looking for, the problem is I don't think its available for the Sprint variant yet. With the galaxy S4, I was reading that the roms were interchangeable because of the GSM capabilities on Sprint variants now, but I tried installing a vzw rom to get PC Suite working to no avail, I guess I'll keep trying the Sprint thread, now that we have our own, I appreciate all the info

I feel so lsot not knowing what Isis is, I'm new to the LG G2, there isn't much for software on the Sprint variant, I just checked out the Power User Edition thread, it looks awesome like exactly what I'm looking for, I'll have to keep checking the Sprint Original Thread looking for it, thanks for the info
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxxrichievxxx:
Isis is just like Google wallet although it s a little bit more restrictive to what types of Cards you can use. For example I think it's only American Express and Wells fargo cards that you are able to add to the program in order to pay. I'd choose Google wallet over that any time
[Android Apps and Games] superht:
Guys, I want to introduce a new app I just developed called Quick Tip to you, I believe this app is very convenient for you to do any kind of tip calculation. If you have any opinion for me, it's very welcome. Now let me start introducing this awesome app.

When launch this app, you could adjust about the rate of TIP and TAX here.

And there're 3 buttons in upper: SHARE, ADD and MENU.

By clicking the ADD button, it would launch a digit input panel for you to enter the amount, you could add the items on the receipt that you're going to pay item by item.

For example, you had ordered an $10 dish, you could enter $10 for your part.

Then press done, you would see there is an item with $10 appeared.

Of course if you want to divide the bill equally, you could use the divide function in the digit input panel. For example, your order costs $38 and 3 people are going to share, you could enter 38/3 in the digit input panel.

Then press done, you would see there are 3 items added with the result of 38/3.

If you want to share the calculating result to your friends who share the cost with you, you could simply use the share button.

Eventually, if you want to delete a specific item in the list, you could simply swipe it left or right, or there is a "Clear" option in menu, it will clear all items in the list.

Now you see there is another option called "Add on start", by checking it, the digit input panel will be launched automatically when you launch Quick Tip.

Now, don't wait to try it, you could download Quick Tip from Play Store now!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] treffer:
All kernels support swap, you just don't have a swap partition by default....

You can use a swap file. Simple create a non-sparse file of size x (dd if=/dev/zero of=/location/of/swap bs=4096 count=65536 # will create a 256MB swap file). You can then mount it as "mount -t swap -o loop /location/of/swap swap".

Note that it is not recommended as the writes may kill your flash storage. You may, alternatly, look for a kernel that has zRAM support. This is basically a compressed swap space in memory. But this will reduce your available RAM.

Give that the GNex has 1GB of RAM I would not recommend using swap space.

Try wiping cache and Dalvik cache, that maybe will help you.

I'm on MK2.

Has the bootloader been unlocked yet or is it unlocked by default?

My phone needs some AOSP in its life. Bad.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Surge1223:
Not sure anyone can help you if your not sure you want to try the method in the first place. The thread Naddict refers to says its roots MK2 in the title. The bootloader Is locked so no AOSP. Theres a sticky that most people refer users to when they ask this question (which is at least 4 times a day) I trust you'll be able to find it though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RBarnett09:
The only reason I wasn't sure if I wanted to try it is because I'm strictly wanting AOSP ROMs... I hate Touchwiz with a passion. So if I can't use any AOSP ROMs, I won't bother rooting it.

Hopefully they get the bootloader unlocked soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] RBarnett09:
Would it be possible to Odin to a previous build that has an unlockable bootloader, root and then flash?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
No that's not possible sorry. Wish it were that easy.

Look into SafeStrap compatible ROMs for the Verizon s4... There's a list on here of them. Some pretty cool ones that have the feel of aosp.

Or... Go on swappa and buy an MDK build which you can run aosp on.

Ah.

I'm just going to resell this thing.

Theres no way to get away from Touchwiz.

Hi CyberianIce and thanks for this tutorial, but BitDefender detected a Trojan in MTKDroid_Tools...

With Virustotal (scan of rar archive) : 17 / 51

EDIT : After verification, the same problem is in MTKDroid_Tools official link too but I'm not sure it's a false positive...
[Android General] CyberianIce:
One must turn A/V off when using MTK Droid Root & Tool and SP Flash Tool because they recognize common android exploits (faramir, boromir, etc) as

potentially

threat. However, that is false alarm, because it is harmless when used for this purpose and absolutely needed for rooting.

Can you upload somewhere a full backup with all partitions for sp flash tool ?

[Android General] CyberianIce:
It is possible you ruined your GSM calibration data which are located in NAND chip NVRAM. They contains unit-specific GSM radio calibration data and IMEI? How could you format all without preloader? Such operation is hardly possible because if you uncheck any part of emmc, format become regular update of selected partitions.
[Android General] dfani511:
No that isn't from the last write without preloader , because that problem I had it in the past and for that I tried to re-write the fw

You don't know that partitions are flashed, which are affected and which are not, and what is for what. How you expect from me to help? You don't know what is problem, and what they did in service. Sorry, this thread is for backup/restore OT-6012 with SP Flash Tool, not for general phone help.

There is no TWRP for dual SIM mode. You tried to flash TWRP from 6012X into 6012D, what for Christ sake you thinked?

[Android General] CyberianIce:
This tutorial can't be used with any other phone than OT-6012X (not even on 6012D or 6012W).

I told You scatter files generated with MK Droid Root & Tools are bad and can't be used for downloading (they are only for readback). You need to extract scatter from your manufacturer OTA update.zip and format+download all partitions with your own set of hex lenghts.
[Android General] Copro:
Tried to download the MTKDroid_Tools.rar archive but Google Drive does not allow me to download because only the owner is allowed to download infected content. I know that they probably just detect the Android exploits but downloading then is not possible.
[Android General] CyberianIce:
Try downloading from this URL:

MTKDroid_Tools (zippyshare mirror). Maybe your antivirus block /files/pwn as it is exploit for rooting but not a virus. Try disabling antivirus or add an exception.
[Android General] sudeshkmr:
PMT is partition mapping table.

"PMT changed" means you are trying to flash the wrong/incompatible ROM OR you are using wrong scatter file. Because the PMT on your phone is different from the PMT in the scatter file.

Do not flash such ROM. Find a compatible ROM for your device.
[Android General] CyberianIce:
Yes, they all have differently scattered nand layouts and spetialy dont try this guide with 6012D, this is only for 6012X!!! You may brick your device beyond repair.

[Android General] ranchu-panchu:
Hi,

Can someone please advise with the following:

It seems that there is a limitation in sp flash data when backing userdata , when partition is above 4G,

This is my case:

I try to backup and restore userdata but it keeps failing.

I use micrower h5 mt6737M, in text faile userdata is:

- partition_index: SYS23

partition_name: userdata

file_name: userdata.img

is_download: true

type: EXT4_IMG

linear_start_addr: 0x84000000

physical_start_addr: 0x84000000

partition_size: 0x60000000

region: EMMC_USER

storage: HW_STORAGE_EMMC

boundary_check: true

is_reserved: false

operation_type: UPDATE

empty_boot_needed: false

reserve: 0x00

On trying to readback from 0x84000000 to E4000000 , and restore the file does not work.

The interesting thing is that the content of cat /proc/partitions shows that the size is 5.5G not 1.6G (0x60000000) as the text file shows.

But it fails even on trying to backup and restore that size.

But I suspect that maybe sp flash has some limitations with backup and restore above 4G ?

I also don't understand why there is mismatch between the size in text file to real size of userdata partition.

Thank for any advise,

ranran

[Android General] codeasm:
Did you make a backup of your preloader? did you NOT format the preloader? if you did... like a format all then... your screwed?

...

I have YET to use the SPtool as I want to have a full backup of my phone before I do any modding. Full formatting a device is NEVER a smart thing, UNLESS a tutorial tells you why, and you have a recovery method at hand (like a full backup and method of putting that backup back in place). As this is kinda an older thread, you might need to make your own and state wich parts you have a backup off and what you still can do with the phone (no preloader sounds like no booting, but maybe you can recover from that)

I have no idea how hard Jtag reprogramming is on mediatek chipsets, but if its a 9 wire solderjob to testpoints and a generic programmer, could be done, just be sure you can solder.
