LMAO... dude your a flashaholic for sure... you can't flash the ROM with Madmacks TWRP... I had to use CWM from freegee to flash just the ROM. If you followed the instructions step by step, it takes all of 10 minutes assuming you have the modified TWRP, Kernel and SU zips.

All you have to do is install CWM via Freegee, wipe, flash rom, load MM's TWRP, then reboot into recovery, then using TWRP, load the Kernel and SU Zips and reboot.

It's not the same as the F240K rom, this one is bloat free and works better.

The only thing extra you have to do with this is to configure the APN which I got from here:

seriously... it takes 10 minutes once you do the prep.

hello Logic and everyone,

how long is your battery life in spinx kitkat rom compare to e980 JB stock rom ?

Note: This question may not apply to those who use Zerolemon battery packs.
[LG Optimus G Pro] thugmafia:
ok i flashed the latest build pro #6 and set my T-mobile APN but dont get LTE i only get 3G,H,and 4G BTW i live in a 4G LTE area and used to get it on my Note2

So is this juz a T-mobile thing cause your on AT&T saying your have LTE
[LG Optimus G Pro] hatrole27:
Problem solved... Thanks everyone.. The ROM is really smooth. No issue so far...
[LG Optimus G Pro] Neroga:
4G is LTE. The icons are different. Stock AT&T shows 4G LTE for LTE and 4G for H+, this shows 4G for LTE and H+.

Hey soul, the only change I made to settings was in advanced wifi options where I disabled wifi scanning and wifi staying on for location accuracy. Those 2 options kept wifi on all the time and was my worst wake lock.

After that this ROM was as good as the jb e980 stock rom for battery life and just as smooth for performance. . Other than the speakerphone on calls issue which is a know issue, I can't find anything wrong with this rom.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggyb21:
To anyone reading this it's probably old news, but this is my first Sony device ever, and I didn't do my homework. Knowing that unlocking the bootloader erases the entire phone it's usually the first thing I do when I get a new phone. Having said that I obviously lost my DRM when I didn't back up my TA Partition. Everything I find by searching has to do with either avoiding loss in the first place or it's an older post regarding the Z. Does anyone know exactly what I've lost. My understanding from old posts is this:

-you lose over the air updates

-you lose use of Sony digital services that require DRM

-you lose x-reality display functionality

Do these still hold true with the Z2 and KitKat?

Thanks
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KyleSforza:
Well, you're the one to tell! Since you're among the first few to get this device.

I think Z1 had camera issues after unlocking the boot loader, do you have those? Is camera taking pictures as good as before?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggyb21:
I ran the camera through its paces. Very quick and very nice results. Also, I tested the video and 4K recording, all seems fine. I am able to toggle the X-reality mobile engine on and off but can't tell if it does anything. I'm not familiar with its purpose but generally opt out of visual software enhancements anyway so maybe I'll luck out.

I'm pissed at myself... I don't use Sony services really so renting movies and such should pose an issue. I was able to connect to my PS4 remotely and download a game so that doesn't seem effected.

What else can I check?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krabman:
If you can or care you might wish to see if video output at HD is still possible, I know you can't try 4k yet till the cable becomes available.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggyb21:
Via MHL you mean?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krabman:
By whatever means, you have lost your dmca keys so the phone should refuse to output video at HD or above.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggyb21:
MHL adapter is the only physical output I'm aware of.....I don't have one of those. I can use HD chromecast no problem but that's 3rd party content, not Z2 created video. I'm trying to come up with another way to test it and drawing a blank.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krabman:
As I said that connector is not available yet but I wasn't sure if you could output HD video via another means as my phone is on backorder like most folks. I'm thinking you wont be able to because that's situation normal but you would be the first person I've read of that could confirm it.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiggyb21:
I understand what you are saying. MHL 3.0 cable isn't available. You said the phone should not be able to output HD, which I took to mean 1080. That test would be possible using MHL 1.0 or 2.0, and that's what I was referring to when I said I don't have one. I'd buy one for the purpose of testing this out unless there is some other way I can accomplish this testing. I don't know of any other way and it seems like you don't either.....am I understanding all this correctly. I should buy an MHL 2.0 and see if I can output some 1080 video?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krabman:
Yeah I did mean 1080P, it should not be possible after the loss of the keys and it's the only HD or higher resolution you can output without the mhl3 connector. I myself would just wait for the phone to release globally and soon enough I'd get my answer rather than buying. But if ya gots to know...
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
For those of you who ordered a GPE M8, when is it's estimated shipping date? Google says by April 15th, but that "by" makes me hope they could ship sooner.
[One (M8) General] gwstmar:
Got mine today.
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
Cool! How do you like it? Also, if you've had a Nexus 5, what do you think in contrast to that?
[One (M8) General] gwstmar:
I love it. They kept the screen tap wake feature. I did have the nexus 5 and the M7. This phone is like they knocked boots. Totally worth it to me.
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
Damn. If it has the tap to wake feature, I'm seriously considering changing my N5 order to the M8. That and the lack of wireless charging we're pretty much the only things holding me back.
[One (M8) General] gwstmar:
Yeah, it definitely didn't wirelessly charge but here's a screenshot of the gesture controls setting menu. And the boom sound on/off in sound settings.
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
Awesome! Was it hard to lock it though? I'd expect it to still be difficult to lock with the button on the top. Also, when did you order it? Were you one of the first?
[One (M8) General] gwstmar:
Yeah, looking it could be easier, but that doesn't bother me. I'm more concerned with unlocking it. Ordered it 2 days after it was announced.
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
Ah thanks! :D

But how come you're concerned about unlocking if the motion gestures are there?

Do they not function very well?
[One (M8) General] Chad_Petree:
What about the camera app? Could you post some screenshots? Is the same awful camera app from all nexus devices? :'(

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[One (M8) General] gwstmar:
I didn't mean that I was concerned about it, I meant that it's more important to me. And with the tap feature, it's super easy. :)
[One (M8) General] gwstmar:
I'm not real big in to photography, but I like the camera fine. Here's a pic of my cat, LOL.
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
It seems like a great device!

But another thing:

Is there a noticeable difference in speed/quickness between this and your Nexus?
[One (M8) General] gwstmar:
It boots up a whole lot quicker, and I notice the boot animation is much smoother.
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
That's all good, but how about in the OS? Speed is a big deal to me, and if there is even a slightly noticeable difference I'd notice :P

And what about your aforementioned concerns about unlocking the device?
[One (M8) General] gwstmar:
Like I said before, I didn't mean that I was concerned. I meant that the ease in which it unlocks is more important to me than locking it, and with the double tap feature it's very very easy to unlock it. As far as speed goes, other than the boot up speed, I don't notice any difference. Doesn't mean that you wouldn't, but I didn't.
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
Yeah I think on the quickness front we've reached a pinnacle of performance :P

Thanks for all your help!
[One (M8) General] gwstmar:
No problem. I have 4 benchmark screen shots for you. The first 2 are from my M8, the last 2 are from my N5.
[One (M8) General] SolarTrans:
Looks like about a 30% increase. HTC said that they have a "feature" in the Developer Settings on the skinned version (and maybe this one) that increases performance in benchmarks. Did you check this? It comes enabled by default.
[One (M8) General] dsymbol:
Would the double-tap-to-wake feature accidently wake the phone while it's in the pocket?

The phone could move around & wakes itself up, i.e. wasting battery?

thanks.

No doubt they can be that type, with their default solution being "have you tried doing a factory reset of your device?"

Now as a minor suggestion, would you mind changing the thread title just a tad to make it less, uhm, jaded towards the carrier we're using? I empathize with it, but I think you could convey similar meaning with a slight shift in tone, and the body of your first post would still get your point across.

Hi man great tutorial.

I followed your tutorial exactly and it compiles very good and everything works great with flashing it to device to.

I start the rom and everything is working but then if i reboot i get wrong date and time for 20sec and it goes back to current time and date.

but i get like 10 notifications from all my google apps and it very anoying. and google now dont work till it gets synced.

i thougt it was my build that had issues but i flashed your rom that you had compiled and it has the same issues.

Did y have that issue?
[Nexus 5 General] KedarWolf:
No, I've never had that issue. Did you wipe/reset data in recovery. If you never you need to do that. If you did I would try and do it again, it might fix the issue. You'll have to re-install all your apps etc. when you do though.

Also you can try to flash the zip I have to download in the OP, it is a completely unaltered stock AOSP build. DO wipe/reset in recovery before you do and you'll have to install the recovery in the guide to flash the zip.

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0ByOOg6Qw8gHZZjZXTmRXU05Ed1E/edit

If you want to install a custom recovery download TWRP http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/hammerhead

Rename the file in Downloads to recovery.img

Then in Terminal with your phone connected by USB to your PC: adb root

And: adb reboot bootloader

Then: cd ~/Downloads

And: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Use the volume buttons on your phone to scroll onto "Restart Bootloader" and hit the powerbutton to select it. After the bootloader reloads, use the volume buttons to scroll to "Recovery Mode" and hit power button again to select it. You should then be in your custom recovery.

If for any reason you get a red android and no recovery just boot into fastboot mode again and reinstall the recovery.img.

Edit: Sorry, just now saw you flashed my ROM. The wipe data should fix it though.
[Nexus 5 General] bariz143:
Of course i wiped before flashing. The thing is it works on first boot. time and everything no notifications from google apps but as soon as i reboot time and date resets and i get 10 notifications from my google apps sayin time and date error and syncing problem.

I decided to make a clean repo sync again by removing everything and start from the begining. Let ypu know how it goes.
[Nexus 5 General] KedarWolf:
I'd try wipe data again and I checked the Date/Time settings, I have 'Automatic date & time' and 'Automatic time zone' enabled. If it does it with my zip and your sync I doubt it is the build that is the trouble. You also might want to try disabling the auto time and date and setting it manually, it might be it is taking a minute to sync with your cell provider, hence the errors. Manually setting the auto time zone as well.

Also you might want to try a different Google Apps package from the link I provided. I use the micro one then if I have to add anything I just do it by Google Play.

Found this link, I'd try the flashable zip a few posts down or manually editing like one guy suggests.

[Nexus 5 General] KedarWolf:
Guide Updated

The guide has been updated to the KTV49L build which has several bug fixes from the old build. I'm not sure if the date issue has been fixed but if you want to try to build AOSP again just letting you know it is an option.
[Nexus 5 General] bariz143:
Great news so if I followed your guide before the KVT update where do I start. Do I have to do all again from scratch?
[Nexus 5 General] KedarWolf:
You need to delete your /home/yourusername/AOSP and /home/yourusername/bin folders you made.

So do: rm -rf ~/AOSP

And: rm -rf ~/bin

Then just:

Make sure you install the repo tool, in Terminal: mkdir ~/bin

Then: curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo

And: curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo

Now: sudo chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

Now: mkdir ~/AOSP

Then: cd ~/AOSP

Now you get the source code etc: repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-4.4.2_r2

Followed by: repo sync -j12

Use repo sync -j12 for a quad core CPU or Intel I5 or if you have say an quad core I7 with 8 threads you can use repo sync -j24 to speed things up etc.

I have a I7 3930k with 12 threads so I used repo sync -j36. This gives you three threads per logical CPU and speeds things along quite well.

And the rest following that.

You do not need to do the other steps though, but the recompiling and build you do so it takes some time.
[Nexus 5 General] bariz143:
Thanks alot my friend. Just did as you said. And i can see in settings that it KVT build but the time issue is still there. I dont get it at all.

im pissed.

its like building a car and the wipers don't work.:(
[Nexus 5 General] KedarWolf:
Sorry, only fix I know is the patch in the link I provided earlier. I have read of other people with the AOSP build have that issue, it's in that link. I don't why it never affected me, might be the settings I use for Time/Date but I've had zero issues that way. :(

Yeah i would like to share the rom with friend and it would not be nice if the time resets and getting those notifications error all the time.

thanks
[Nexus 5 General] KedarWolf:
I'm not 100% sure t'll work in Xubuntu. I know when I removed the old java in Linux Mint KDE it really messed up the programs menu, even Terminal itself was removed from it. But if it doesn't mess anything up it should work I believe. or just install Linux Mint 16 Cinnamon or MATE in the virtual box instead of Xubuntu, then it'll work I'm sure. Might build much slower though running in a virtual box. You'd have to do everything from the start of the guide, the linux installed in a virtual box is just a clean fresh install of any linux just like a regular new install on any PC.

Hope that helps. :D
[Nexus 5 General] jv.batista:
when I had the galaxy s I tried to create a buildmachine but even following every step, there was always something missing, that's why i gave the vm sugestion.

i'll try with the vm but if it doesn't work i'll start from scratch...

thanks

ps: it's a virtual machine but it is running in a i7 with 4 cores and 8gb of ram dedicated to it(if needed i can go for 10gb) ;)
[Nexus 5 General] KedarWolf:
By start from scratch I mean you just do all the steps in the guide on the fresh virtual machine install. The only time you don't need to do all the steps is if you've done a build and need to do a second build like I did for my Nexus 7 after my Nexus 5 or when the repos update to a new version after you've done a build already. In post #13 it says what to do if you're doing a second build. If it's your first build or a new install of linux or a new virtual box install of linux do all the steps right from the beginning of the guide. Hope that clarifies things. :p

P.S. Should be pretty fast with your virtual machine but it takes me close to an hour to download the source from the repo then another hour to actually build AOSP with a 6 core 12 thread I7 3930k and 32 gigs of ram. :rolleyes:

P.P.S. Sorry for the late night responses, I get home from work around 11 p.m. EST and like to game and stuff a bit before I do other things. Really busy at work, not much time to check here very often. :(
[Nexus 5 General] jv.batista:
It builded ok with the vm :highfive:.

When I said start from scratch I was referring to a fresh vm install. the repo sync took something like one hour and the build I have no idea 'cause i left it during the night :P I started the build around 1AM and when I woke up @ 7 it was already finished :P(I passed out around the 1.5h mark).

Do you have an ssd on your machine? I think that could make a very big difference in the building times with that hardware... I'm running the vm on a i7 2630QM (just using 4 cores on the vm settings) and with 6gb of ram(had to bring it down from 8 'cause the first time I ran out of ram :eek:)

Today starts the process of modding the build but first I have to figure out if the source is on github and if it's not i need to send it before i start modifying the thing...

Thanks for the help

ps: and I don't have the code on git. something else went wrong when I took a snapshot of my vm. it is taking up 50gb of space. also, can you detail a little bit more the git part, assuming that everyone has an account and repo already done? how do we sync the local files with git, how to add the repository, etc

thanks again

I've never used GitHub so I'm not sure how it works. Sorry. :(

Change the repo command to: repo init -u git://github.com/SlimRoms/platform_manifest.git -b kk4.4 and the rest should be the same I believe. :D

Oh wait, you don't do the binaries part I think, but I'm not 100% sure. You can try without the binaries, see if the ROM works okay, if it doesn't, try with the binaries. SlimKats is AOSP based, just not sure if they include the Google binaries in the build or you add them like in my guide.
