[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianmay27:
Hey guys.

First off I have an AT&T Samsung note 2. Im using a custom ROM and Bluetooth is not working as hoped. It works except for G Now does not receive audio input from my headset. Ive tried on other phones and it works so I am thinking it is something with the hardware to software interface (kernel if I am not mistaken)

I am a senior in Computer engineering so I have knowledge in hardware and software but never got into kernel development and not too much knowledge in android beyond app development.

The note has an Broadcom BCM4334 chipset which I am thinking the firmware is outdated or the kernel does not have the latest sources. Beyond from that I have no idea what to do. I have found the firmware images online that were updated in February but don't know what I do with them. I also don't know if it is the kernel what I would have to do to get it to work.

I understand I am trying to get into something way above my head but I am and have been very interested in development on mobile devices as I already am very proficient with embedded development.

I would like to ask what you all believe may the problem and hopefully some resources on how I can begin to better understand where to start.

Thanks for the time.

Trying clearing cache and dalvik, if you didn't do that during the flashing process. When I dirty flashed my most recent version of ARHD, I had terrible battery drain attributed to the Android system until doing so.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dodgexander:
Does anyone notice a difference between their desire signal reception compared to other phones?

I had been having difficulty with my reception for a while, in fact on a recent trip to the city I logged only 50% uptime on signal, with 80% of that time being poor reception.

At home I live in a poor received area, but I thought id get my sister to compare on the same network. She has a Moto G and has full bars, where's my desire next to it only has 0-1 bars.

Perhaps I broke the desire by flashing the latest radio from here? I didn't make a note of which one I was running before, so I can't easily downgrade.

I've also tried using the latest RIL package that people reported to have good signal with (ported from the Z I think).

Or could this just be the time to say goodbye to my desire and accept its probably just a damaged antenna?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dodgexander:
Turns out the antenna of the phone is integrated into the very bottom of the rear, beneath the battery. My desire had dropped and the brittle plastic shattered.

I tried to repair the antenna using a paperclip, but even when I was getting 5 bars, the signal just kept dropping to nothing again.

I did think about buying a replacement housing or replacement antenna module, which may have fixed it, but thought it wasn't worth the risk for such an old phone. Instead I'm going to ship it to envirophone to see if I get anything for it. I was lucky enough to find a good deal for a Nexus 5, so have upgraded to that.

Then test the card and not the phone, did you formatted the card? Which card do you have?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xneo70:
The kard worked well, untill i rooted the sony.

Now there is no way to format it. I tried it on phone, on linux, and on windows. But on remount, all is back as it was before format.

The pc does format, even with linux i tried fdisk and mkfs.ext4, and it tells of no errors, all ok. But on remount all back again, extFat again and all the files are back again.

The sd kard is a SanDisk Ultra 64gb.

I have a Samsung 64Gb SDXC class 10 and it works perfectly with KK firmware

Your SDCard is maybe damaged:confused:

OR

You said you're rooted, you have (maybe) write permission to the SDCard that can cause many troubles actually when 3rd app try to access to it.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prabu33:
Manual Root Method

Download and extract the latest IOroot.zip

Enable USB Debugging. VZW users must also enable ethernet mode.

Open terminal/command prompt. windows/linux users: cd into /ioroot folder. mac users cd into /ioroot/mac

(windows users can hold shift key, right click in ioroot folder. Select "open command window" option.

1. adb devices

2. adb reboot recovery

(when booted in recovery, select: 'apply update from adb' with power button)

3. adb sideload kk_root.zip

reboot when zip finishes flashing. done.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drachenminister:
Because loki is patched in 4.4.2 to use a custom recovery you would need to use the old bootloader and a patched kernel as well, flashing itself can be done with dd command in adb shell
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SNaReX:
what about recovery? Can we install via adb?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Drachenminister:
Yes, you could flash it the same way but it won't work because of the new bootloader, and instead only nuke stock recovery.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grem135:
I am unable to boot into recovery on my tf300t. I can get to the menu with 3 icons I select RCK and it shows installing system then Error!

I still was able to unlock and root the device but I still can't get past error or figure out how to install a new recovery.

Any help?

Thanks
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
The error triangle means you have to install a recovery (before you use it).

Make sure the recovery you will install is compatible before flashing it.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grem135:
All instructions I find for flashing a recovery have you booting into RCK to flash it. Is there another way?
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmendonc2:
You can use Terminal Emulator to flash it if you are rooted correctly.

su

dd if=/sdcard/twrp.blob of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p4

Make sure you install the -42 version.
[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grem135:
Thanks for the help. I finally can boot into recovery. It took a bit to realize sdcard meant internal memory not the microsd like on my phone.:o

Hi Here is the KitKat BIOS BOOT ANIMATION. Original ICS version by frysee ( HERE). I just touched up to make it KitKat BIOS Screen. Hope you guys like it...

NOTE: This is NOT a flashable zip. Just copy the "bootanimation.zip" to /system/media using file explorer. and set Permission to -rw-r--r-- (click and hold click properties>>permission see attached picture if not sure).

;);)

Boot Animation Removed for further investigation Its Working fine....

Have you tried to set proper permissions. And use the new file and see....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AGoogleUser:
I can't believe how stupid I can be sometimes. Totally forgot the permissions. :facepalm:

*EDIT* Even with current permission I still get black screen. I can hear my volume adjust, my screen won't "shut off" cause I can hit the power button and right afterwards hear the volume adjust tone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Danzanzio:
I installed this and it's definitely not the right boot animation. All I see is the blue word "android" with a reflection scrolling across it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] namtombout:
It definitely works, been using it over a week. Find a flashable boot animation zip, unpack it and replace the old boot animation with this one. Flash and enjoy

Thanks OP for this. Best boot animation next to the original galaxy nexus ics boot animation
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Danzanzio:
Can I use TWRP?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nexusaurus:
For all the people with issues.

I really dont know why the OP's in all these boot animation screens point to place the file in system/media as that will rewrite your bootanimation with no chance to undo the changes.

Better, place the file in data/local, not -rw permissions or something. Just place it and delete it if you want to revert to the stock bootanimation or replace it with another bootanimation.zip if you want try another one.

This is more secure as you dont modify the original bootanimation.zip in system/media.

Hi

was just wondering why isnt the site using bittorrent to distribute the huge ROM files instead of FTP? it would cut down on their bandwidth and/or queue and i would think the download speeds would be faster with several/more seeds

just a thought.

:)
[General Topics] dimushor:
that is a good idea you know.
[General Topics] raskal:
i agree with you, ideea is great, i will ask my friend to make one :)
[General Topics] HDuser:
In a year of being one this site and who knows how many Roms I have downloaded and up loaded I fail to see the problem with FTP.

Even if the conection breaks a good FTP client will resume.

Bittorrent has its merits I agree but how many times do we change roms and are the roms real that BIG.

This is not RomWood.
[General Topics] dimushor:
i'll tell you what might be the problem with FTP. for instance, at home I have unlimited internal traffic and limited external traffic. if i download the rom from ftp, i will use my external traffic, but if i will use the torrents, the torrent client is configured so, that it uses only interbal traffic. so, the advantage is obvious
[General Topics] moyofalaye:
It really would be a great idea. But with m$ and mp@@ and ri@@ and also frudulent peeps out there you might get a bricker. Trust me when it comes to apps espescially these types, bittorrent might not be the best idea.

I remember with the psp, firmware hacks, some people released brickers so this could happen here too.
[General Topics] bola:
umm with the bricker ROMs, isnt the FTP site exposed to that too? I mean, the FTP site doesnt stop anyone from uploading files. (i could be wrong)

i think the issue is verification of file integrity rather than the mode of distribution.

perhaps only those with proven track record of working ROMs are allowed to submit seeds?

:)
[General Topics] mlts22:
This may take some work if you are not familar with the program, but perhaps PGP or gpg sign the ROMs, and have the torrent be a ZIP file, with the ROM, and a PGP/gpg signature file in it?

Just make sure either a copy of the public key, or the key ID and fingerprint is printed on the website, and have the key available on a keyserver.

PGP is the commercial version (www.pgp.com), gpg, or gnupg (www.gnupg.org) is the OSS version, both are interchangable, and both are highly secure.
[General Topics] SubZero5:
The bittorrent protocol is not illegal. The shared files could be illegal. mp@@ or ri@@ will not say anything to the rom files afaik.. :p Because the ROM files are free to download.. :)
[General Topics] yoda_143:
Correct. Since the ROMs that'd be distributed over the tracker are neither music nor movies the people from the riaa and mpaa would not say anything against it. The only ones who could say anything against it are HTC, or I-Mate or Dopod, or whatever company is the author of the ROMs. But I guess they would've shut down the FTP by now if they'd have anything against it.

Bittorrent is a great way to distribute software and would have several advantages over the ftp like cost of running the server, security of data (anyone remember the time a lot of stuff was deleted from the ftp for example?), etc. A lot of (legal) software distribution is done in the Linux and open source community.

In conclusion I see no reason not to switch to Bittorrent. If you decide to do it and need help setting up the software I'd be happy to assist.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] chriskader:
Good day all,

I was able to modify a GPE ROM to work on the Verizon M8. I would love help from more knowledgeable members to maybe get this thing to take off. But I have a few questions:

1. What forum should it go in?

2. Would it be worth posting?

Working:

Boots

Bluetooth

Not Working:

Wifi

3G/4G/LTE

Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] krazie1:
It would go into Android development, you could add WIP to the title name if you post it. Maybe some of the devs can help getting data to work, does calls/sms work?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] chriskader:
Calls and SMS do not work. I currently have no cellular connectivity.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] krazie1:
Ok you would add that to the not working list, how is GPS?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] myn:
Love to see threads like this :)

For the data/cell, move over the libril* file(s) in /system/lib from our Verizon stock ROM to the GPE ROM (do one at a time) and see if that fixes the issue with data. Also may want to verify the build.prop references the appropriate RIL ffilename if different from in GPE build.prop.

For SMS/MMS, try moving the *apns* files from /system/etc on our Verizon stock rom to GPE and again see if that fixes the SMS/MMS issue. If that doesn't resolve it, it's probably buried in the framework-res.apk under /xml/. You could try extracting the contents of the Verizon framework-res.apk and simply copy over the /xml/apns.xml into the GPE framework-res.apk.

Biggest advice I can give you is only move and test 1 file at a time. Sounds Tedious but it will save you sooo much time in the long run.

Good to see you working on this :)
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] krazie1:
Awesome to see you here myn, the WIP thread has been posted in Android Development but if you don't mind I copied this post and pasted it in the other thread. Thanks for the advice really am looking forward to this awesome rom

I've got Verizon Galaxy Nexus, rooted but running stock 4.2.2. I now use it on wifi or as a backup.

My biggest complaint is battery life. If it hadn't been for the battery life, I wouldn't have gone to the Moto X (which I really like, BTW).

Will a 4.4.2 rom, CM11 or similar, make a difference in battery life? Will it bring me some other magical benefits?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] TheMan0790:
I would have to disagree. I have had my GNex for 2 years now and it is still running extremely well. Your best bet would be to take some time looking over all the potential custom ROMs and Kernels and coming to a combination you would like. Battery life will be different for every user and will depend on what you do on your phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ashclepdia:
to get good battery life on Gnex, turn on airplane mode, and toggle on WiFi.

that's what I do, and I removed bip.apk cuz I was tired of seeing it under running apps along with mms apk, I can get over 3hrs screen on time on my gnex doing this(toro though not on any network just using Wi-Fi with airplane mode on)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] seandarcy:
Yes, that's what I do now. I was hoping kitkat would get me up to 4 or 5 hours. But it seems kitkat doesn't make a difference. I'll just stick with 4.2.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Larzzzz82:
I am presently running playful gods unofficial cm 11 and love it! This phone has never run so good and the battery life is very very good compared to jb or ICS ROMs.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stalag:
Yes, CM11 makes the phone useable and by far better than any of the previous releases or even stock. CM10.2 is unfixed bugs with airplane mode and 3g/4g hand offs. It constantly drops the data connections and frequently requires reboots to get it back. Interestingly enough, it will be in 4g mode but there will but no IPs will be assigned. It is cm10.x bugs, it never worked properly. CM9 was rock solid, but CM11 makes it faster and has better battery life, but not much. Most of the battery problems are from screen and the 4g radio, they are battery hogs and no software can fix that. Turn you brightness down as far as possible and use wifi as much as possible (also disable bluetooth, nfc and 4g if you can do without).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] islandak:
Yeppers

I was on a stock rooted 4.2 forever. When my GNex started really bogging down I decided to try a some new roms.

I'm on C-Rom 4.4.2 and performance has been significantly better. I've had a few hiccups, but it's been a very solid daily driver.

So, my opinion is, "Yes. Big improvement."
