[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] datallboy:
I'm on Straight Talk with an AT&T SIM card. I have a few questions

1) How do I know if I can get LTE speeds? Anything that tells me if it is working, but not available in my area? I'm in between cities which have LTE, but I'm in the 4G area. APN settings are correct (I believe, although MMS doesn't work) and my preferred network type is set to LTE/GSM/CDMA auto (PRL).

2) In the Phone Info (*#*#4636#*#*) options, I press "Select Radio Band" and android.phone crashes. Doing research I found it's an issue since 4.2 or so. I'm wondering if I can force a 850mhz frequency so I can get better signal inside buildings (if this makes sense, I don't fully understand cell frequency, etc). I went to a restaurant the other day and couldn't get any bars at all.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Can I extract the kernel.elf from a stock .tft rom ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] St.Jimmy90:
If you want to flash just the kernel you can exclude anything but the kernel in flashtool
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] carminedev:
Hi mate , to root my Xperia V normally I followed these steps so :

first install the stock android 4.3 FTF Once this is done I disconnect my phone, put it into fastboot mode and install the Doomkernel. Now upon boot, I go into recovery, and install the SuperSU zip normally. Once this is done, I power off my V. Go into Fastboot mode again, and install the stock Sony 4.3 Kernel (provvided into the xda forum' s post)....

so about your "quote" I can use the stock kernel from the rom...

flashtool -> flashmode -> select KERNEL and exclude everything else

is it right ? Have I to wipe APPSLOG, CACHE, DATA. In Misc : No Final Verificatio , Reset Customization ?

Hi:

My galaxy dont work anymore! DONT TURN ON! and it freezes the screen everytime i turn on...

Its a long story, but i throw my phone against the cement, and a few minutes later, when i mount the battery and the housing again, the screen it was frozen in the boot logo, and its scare me more later, because i try tu access to the recovery mode, but the screen again it was frozen in the screen logo, and when i turn on in download recovery it doesnt have any problem, but the phone cant not enter to recover y mode...SO, i go home and i try to flash in ODIN, and after many attemps, the phone still frozen in boot logo...

PD: When i charge the phone, the screen freezes in the battery logo, and when i turn on the screen freezes in the boot logo, just one time after flash with odin i see the boot animation ("SAMSUNG" logo winking), but nothing more...and just a few times access to the recovery mode (doing a restore of a backup and a wipe of everything)...BUT DIDNT WORK!

Thanks

Alright, finally we have CIFS support on MJO.

Cross compiled on ArchLinux from the sources posted by Rich, config pulled from /proc/config.gz and just compiled the CIFS+md4 module.

Works great here:

//10.0.0.11/vault 3.6T 2.9T 709.1G 81% /mnt/shell/emulated/0/vault

Make sure you have root, insmod md4.ko, insmod cifs.ko and enjoy! I'm using this to access my MP3s for aMPD so that my Mojo can act as my stereo too.

*edit* also make sure you have busybox installed in order to mount, and pass a username option. ie:

busybox mount -ousername=guest //1.1.1.1/share /sdcard/share
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] gwaldo:
That's a good idea.. just updating the modules rather then the actual kernel.

By any chance, would you know how to approach updating the kernel on the mojo?
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] paulatz:
Thank you! These modules worked for me. However I was getting an "invalid parameter" error message. Finally I had to work around it as:

busybox mount -o unc=\\\\192.168.0.2\\share name,username=myself,password=password1 -t cifs none /mnt/point

It may depend on the version of busybox..

Replace

./kernel/boot.img-zImage

with a new built kernel, repack the boot image, and you can try to boot it with fastboot without killing anything:

fastboot boot newboot.img

Should work. I will experiment in a few days when I get more time, perhaps.
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] gwaldo:
Hi vostok4, thanks for the reply.

I used the zip config from the mojo and use my kernel with the extracted initramfs from the boot.img in mojo-signed-ota-MO0202-WW.zip firmware update.

It boots fine and can confirm it booted the kernel via google's setting.

I add more FS (NTSF/exfat write) support in the kernel but I'm not familiar with androids permissions.

Just cautious with it.

It would be nice if there was a system recovery image so if we made a mistake we can reset it to factory.

I kinda left it there for a while.. not sure what else to add
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] vostok4:
From a recovery standpoint with the kernel, you already have the boot.img from the update, so you can always boot that... And the device auto goes into fastboot for you, so I think a recovery from every brick should be possible.

Words are cheap though :)
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] gwaldo:
Oh I meant doing something wrong on the filesystem, there's no rom/image for it , NAND I think it's called, the Android OS partition.

Like the guy that changed his permissions and made his entire MOJO readonly.. I think the only fix is the reflashing.

I did post about a guy who found the recovery menu on the MOJO

http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?12075-FOUND-MAD-CATZ-M-O-J-O-RECOVERY-MENU

So, that could work, haven't tried..
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] vostok4:
I think working with similar key combinations to enable nvidia recovery mode is more important. That way with nvflash we can make a copy of a clean install, and always be able to flash it back. My mojo always goes to this mode when I try the fastboot method, but it might be a special unit :)

I rooted mojo whit MMM MoDaCo Mod.

but I dont have any idea how use the cifs-module-kernel-3.4.35.zip file

Thanks in advance
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] vostok4:
You need to put the archive somewhere on your MOJO, and run the following as root:

insmod md4.ko

insmod cifs.ko

Then you can mount using either mine or gwaldo's mount line.

I can write up how I got it to automount later, in order for the mount to be accessible to every application it has to be outside of /sdcard, I did mine in /mnt/share, and have it mounting on boot (in an ugly method).
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] gwaldo:
You need to extract the content of the zip file onto a usb drive/MICROSD and copy the files to the MOJO.

Then follow vostok4's instructions

in busybox (with root permission)

cd to-where-you-put your .ko files (you need to know linux command line)

then run

insmod md4.ko

insmod insmod cifs.ko

Then you need to mount it as below:

PS: you'll need to do this EVERYTIME you reboot/restart MOJO.

PS2: I haven't done this my self but that's my understanding.
[M.O.J.O. Android Development] vostok4:
OK, in order to not do it everytime manually, I have something like this (note the sleep 30 is ugly but I didn't bother writing a method to trigger on network connectivity). This requires busybox installed (I use this one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox)

If you aren't comfortable with manually mucking around, then I'm not sure what to tell you to :) This is assuming you have root and busybox installed.

In order to create files under /system and /etc you need to mount /system as read-write:

$ su
# mount -orw,remount /system
# cp /sdcard/install-recovery.sh /etc/
# chmod 777 /etc/install-recovery.sh
# mount -oro,remount /system

That would copy install-recovery.sh from the sdcard (we need to do this because we have a secure boot and can't adb push to /etc). It also sets the file as executable (we want that). SO, these are the files you need:

/etc/install-recovery.sh (needs chmod 777)

#!/system/bin/sh
# fake init.d support

/system/bin/sysinit

/system/bin/sysinit (needs chmod 777)

#!/system/bin/sh
# fake init.d support

# the script below is what i use to mount my cifs share
/system/bin/sh '/system/etc/init.d/99vault'

# these are commented out, but run-parts would be the proper way to use the init.d folder
# however I couldn't get it to work on my mojo, so i just call the script directly
#export PATH=/sbin:/system/sbin:/system/bin:/system/xbin
#run-parts /system/etc/init.d

/etc/init.d/99vault (or /system/etc/init.d/99vault if you expand the symlink) (needs chmod 777)

#!/system/bin/sh

/system/xbin/busybox mount -orw,remount /
# sometimes disappears on reboot, lets just create the mount folder to be safe
/system/xbin/busybox mkdir /mnt/vault
/system/xbin/busybox mount -oro,remount /
# mount our cifs module
/system/xbin/busybox insmod /system/etc/cifs/md4.ko
/system/xbin/busybox insmod /system/etc/cifs/cifs.ko

# wait for network to come online
sleep 30

# mount the actual share
/system/xbin/busybox mount -ousername=guest //10.0.0.11/vault /mnt/vault

That will get you mounted after each reboot without fail, at least in my experience.

It does drop down to 300mhz when you are not touching the screen, I used SetCpu to confirm this. What you can do is use the Aroma installer version of ElementalX and set the cores max speed to 1.2ghz and then it shouldn't go above that when you're using your phone.

I have the same kernel and switched it off for the same reasons and have had no problems. It takes a second to put it on but I'd rather have my own personal settings not what qualcom wants.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] modma:
Hey everyone,

I'm new to these boards but have been a long time PDA/phone user. Last night, I downloaded and installed the 2.25 ROM for my Cingular 8125 device and setup my Exchange account.

I have an MS Exchange 2003 SP2 mailbox and setup Direct Push, but the e-mails still take a minute or two to get to me when a Blackberry or GoodLink take about 15 seconds. It seems that the Exchange server just pushes out an IP packet to my phone to make it go through the [seemingly wasteful] process of performing an ActiveSync operation. So constantly my connection arrows are alternating between "connected" and "ActiveSyncing." To me, it's almost as slow as the old SMS push-pull method.

Furthermore, it seems that (a) my ability to sync my subfolders is gone. Previously, I could select folders to sync to my device from my device. Now, I can select all my folders, but they are all empty (except my Inbox). If I go to Menu -> Tools, the "Manage Folders" option is greyed out. I cannot tap and hold a folder to sync it. And (b), the option to manually "send/receive" is also greyed out. If I turn DirectPush off (which I do at night to prevent receiving my emails), I have to open the ActiveSync application to get my e-mail instead of previously being able to tap Menu -> Send/Receive from the Messaging program.

Is this normal? Are these the results that others are seeing from MSFP? Finally, are there any other noteworthy improvements in this ROM other than MSFP? If this is the case, and there are no other improvements, wouldn't it behoove me to revert back to the previous ROM?

Thank you in advance for you help and insight!

-M-
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] foxbat121:
The messaging app can switch between SMS, Email and MMS. You can switch it by press Email button on top left corner or by changing accounts in menu. Sounds like all you issue is related to the fact that your messaging app is currently in other accounts like SMS or MMS.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] modma:
Foxbat,

Thank you, but I am in the Outlook E-mail account. I'm pretty savvy about these things to know at least that much! :-)

I'm still not able to manage my folders or manually send and receive and I still feel like there's a longer lag time than Blackberry or GoodLink.

Are you using the MSFP ROM with an Exchange 2003 SP2 account? If so, what are your experiences?

Thanks again!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] foxbat121:
Yes, I'm using MSFP on 2.17 ROM right now. I have none of your issues.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] bryanparke:
i can just say that it doesn't sound like the MSFP is actually working in your case. Once i switched to directpush, my messages are on my phone within 5 seconds, no activesync whatsoever. same for calendar, tasks and contacts.

i have a tmo blackberry and a tmo mda - i tested sending messages to both at the same time, on average the mda receives the message about 1 second later than the blackberry - an extrememly nice improvement.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Koksie:
The send/receive option in Outlook account is always greyed out, you can only receive email there by syncing or push mail. there is a thread on this on this forum, called Pocket Outlook Account is worthless or something like that.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] foxbat121:
Wrong. It works just fine all the time for me in 2.17 ROM and 2.24 ROM (I skipped the worthless 2.25 Cingular ROM). I don't know what's wrong with OP's issue. Maybe he should re-examine the settings or do a hard reset.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] peon:
I had a similar problem when I updated my ROM. Send/recieve and Manage Folders was greyed out. I fixed it by deleting the sync to my exchange and re-adding it through active sync on my PC. From active sync on the PC double click Exchange server. Click the "delete server" button. Wait for it to sync and remove all your emails from the phone. Then go Tools > Configure Server Source and add it back in. This worked for me.

If that doesn't work, you can select folders in active sync. That also worked for me before I deleted and re-added my exchange. Not as handy as being able to do it from the phone though.
