[Omni Q&A] kl3:
If your device is rooted try to manually apply the charging currency using terminal emulator, adb shell, or so:

echo "1800" > /sys/devices/platform/samsung-battery/dcp_ac_input_curr
echo "1700" > /sys/devices/platform/samsung-battery/dcp_ac_chrg_curr

dcp_ac_input_curr defines the maximum input, dcp_ac_chrg_curr defines the currency at which your battery will be loaded. If this loads your device faster, some app or OmniROM sets lower values for those variables. If not, I don't know. Make sure you are executing these commands as root.

Hey klenamenis, thanks for that. Is there a noob way to check whatever you mentioned here? I have the same problem and i can't really understand what is it i could do.
[Omni Q&A] kl3:
Install this app, open it and type in the following commands and post both outputs here:

echo /sys/devices/platform/samsung-battery/dcp_ac_input_curr
echo /sys/devices/platform/samsung-battery/dcp_ac_chrg_curr
[Omni Q&A] Ancientsthe:
Just out of curiosity I enter the commands in a Android terminal emulator ,

su -

echo /sys/devices/platform/samsung-battery/dcp_ac_input_curr

and got nothing in return... no value only the echo...

When i do the echo "1800" > /sys/....

command

I get a file not found error.

what's doing this noob wrong?

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Black6spdZ:
just d/l the ext rom tools, unlock and unhide the ext rom partition, then use the doc repartitioning tool to format it to is smallest size of 128k and you can reclaim that space in the storage

Does anyone have a clear answer to this ?

Thanks
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Black6spdZ:
cons are that you will not have that space available as normal storage as it is permantly allocated for the ext rom.. also most of the times it installs program, utilities, and configurations that aren't what you want in the end and that you usually can't uninstall afterwards. I like the pros of having a nice clean OS after a hard reset and install just the utilities I want and also have that space for normal storage... you can take the time to make your custom ext rom but honestly how often do you expect to hard reset your BA? do one xBackup after you get your programs,config,utilities installed and you can restore that in the event of a hard reset and all is well along with having that space available.. just my opinion anyway

[Sprint LG G2] brockzilla:
Hello. I've spent about the past 2 hours trying to figure this out. So, how this started was, a while back when I first got the phone, I wanted 4.4, so I rooted my phone, and tried to flashify a recovery like CWM and TWRP. Both of these failed. I tried many times, and no matter what I tried, flashing always failed. But guess what, my stock recovery was erased in the process. I forgot about it until today, where I found the OTA update to 4.4 was released, and attempted to do it. To my dismay, I forgot I had no recovery mode, and instantly got the "boot certification verify" error screen. Now All I can access is download mode, to my knowledge. So I've been trying to fix this, either by installing stock recovery, or another way to install a custom. All to no avail. When I use the lg flash tool for the stock recovery, it fails at "BIN CRC Check". Every.... Single.... Time. Despite downloading multiple replacement files. I would be perfectly content with installing a customer recovery, but the ways I see require the phone to be on, and use the built in recovery mode. At this point, my phone is bricked, and I am looking for any and all ways to either A) boot back up normally without installing a recovery and fix it later, or B) install a recovery, even if it's the hard way.

Update:

I followed this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2582142

It looked like it was going to work. I am using a Xubuntu virtual machine. I was copying the files over, and every time it finished copying a file, it unmounted and remounted my phone (I don't know if that was suppose to happen, just worth mentioning if it wasn't suppose to). I was super excited to do it. Hard rebooted my phone. And now it's just a blank screen. I have no logo, no error, and no download mode like I had before. Seriously need some help here.

Update#2:

I have the flash tool correctly working. Awesome! But..... I still have no download mode here.... So I can't use the tool....

For this to work you will need to be rooted with twrp installed.

This is for people who are on the stock rom or a rom without init.d support.

1. Download the wp_mod.ko file from [MENTION=4684315]flar2[/MENTION]'s thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2701816

and copy it over to your SD card (either internal or external)

2. Boot into twrp

3. Select the "Mount" option on the main menu and tick system

4. Go back to the main menu and then go into the "Advanced" option. There will be a "File Manager" option

5. Navigate to the folder you saved the .ko file in and copy it (just touch the file and it will bring up the menu)

6. now navigate to /system/lib/modules and copy the file there by hitting the "select" button on the bottom right.

7. Navigate to /system/lib/modules and insure the file is there. Now touch it to bring up the menu. select "Chmod" option and enter in 644

8. reboot the device

9. Once booted fully open up Terminal emulator and type:

su

insmod /system/lib/modules/wp_mod.ko

10. Once that's done open up a file manager app with root access and mount as r/w and navigate to /system/etc and look for the file install-recovery.sh

11. edit the file using a text editor, adding the line insmod /system/lib/modules/wp_mod.ko towards the bottom of the file

12. reboot and enjoy r/w on boot without running the command every time

13. profit

However after final rebott (several in fact) /system is still r/o

I took a TRWP backup before I started so I restored and followed your instructions again , still same result, should this work immediately or will it take several reboots before it is operative? Other discussions on this and other sites indicate the latter.

I have an HTC One_M8 Dual Sim (Adroid 4.4.4) could it be because of that?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
If the kernel is different on the Dual SIM, it probably won't work.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] s8vuoto:
Hallo people.

This is similar to the s-off?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
No

, this is not similar to s-off in any way.

This just allows the system to be writable. On this device, even with root, if you try to make changes to system files (for instance, delete bloatware) the changes will just be reversed back to stock (bloat will reappear) when you reboot.

This mod fixes that, so system changes will stick. Its just a kernel module.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] s8vuoto:
But with the root you cannot r/w the system memory? I had understood than with the root you gain access to some system partition and not for all, and than with the s-off you gain also for the other, right? So what's the 'plus' with this mod? Can you tell me?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
I'm not aware of any part of the /system partition (specifically) that is accessed with s-off. S-off will give you access to hboot, radio, and some other partitions, not accessible with s-on. But nothing that is part of /system. But maybe there's something I'm not aware of.

More importantly, what are you trying to do?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] s8vuoto:
Now I'm stock, but I don't like this, normally I root after one week no more, but I want to be sure can I restore warranty. Unfortunately mine m8 is too upgraded and firewater/sunshine seems don't work. Before starting rooting process (htcdev &co) I want to be more informated possible. Just for that I'm interested for this module
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Your language is a bit broken, and I understand English is probably not your native language. I'll try to answer as best I can understand.

This is just a kernel module, it won't change anything that isn't already allowed under s-on. You have the same write permissions simply by installing a custom ROM.

If you are talking about modifying hboot to read LOCKED, this module won't allow you to do it. You need s-off for that, no exceptions or workarounds.

You can backup your stock ROM, that is the most you can do to return to stock under s-on. Under 4.4.4, you can't even backup your stock recovery (was previously possible before 4.4.3).
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] s8vuoto:
??yes, have you correctly understood?.

Thank for reply, now I've clarify my mind. This is only 'for completing' the root access on stock/very similar stock ROM. Right?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Yes, that is a good way of looking at it.

I did everything as you explained and it worked + I added init.d support too but I have a question :

this line "insmod /system/lib/modules/wp_mod.ko" should be in "install-recovery.sh" and never to be modified or deleted, right?

because I did an update for superSU and it said I should update the binaries which I updated via cwm recovery and in the recovery there was a question that I might have lost my root access and if I would like to fix or not. I choose to fix it "which I shouldn't :) i know that now"

and checked the system and found out that the system write protection is enabled again..

the question is : is there any other way to avoid this, I mean to make the write protection disabled permanently without the need for this line "insmod /system/lib/modules/wp_mod.ko" to be there in "install-recovery.sh" forever? if I had just another accident like what i din while updating the superSU binaries I'll lose it again and I'll have to repeat the steps all over?

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
It applies a kernel mod specific to the M8, so I'd say no.

You should check around with your fellow M7 users. But at least on the M8, applying a compatible kernel from a custom ROM will already have the required kernel mod (to disable system write protection). Back up your current setup (via nandroid) before changing the kernel, just in case you have any issues.
