[Motorola Droid RAZR] dbs179:
Hi all,

I recently helped out a friend who was having issues with their RAZR being unresponsive. I used SafeStrap to install SlimKat, but they had so much stuff on their Phone that I ended up putting in place of the stock rom. Almost everything works fine and the phone is much more responsive and useful. The only issue is that they can not send or receive MMS Messages. With the stock Messaging App they were getting APN not specified. I tried to set up a new APN under settings but the option is greyed out. I tried to replace the apns-conf.xml with one I found searching, which didn't work and I even tried to go to 8SMS and that still didn't work. I'm not totally new to Flashing ROM's, XML or moving data to and from Android, either via PC or with Root Explorer, but I'm used to working on my Galaxy not this RAZR so any help would be awesome. If there is a good fix for this I would really appreciate anyone helping me through it.

Thanks in advance.

Dave
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Draxin:
Are we talking xt910 or xt912?

SlimKat has the APN option greyed out... you would have to search how to modify the build.prop successfully to keep using it... have a back, if a xt910, proper firmware and RSD, or mattlgrof's utility if it is a xt912 ready prior, so you can flash back in case of mistakes.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dbs179:
Sorry, Verzion RAZR MAXX, I was distracted last night when I made this post. From what I understand it is exactly the same as a RAZR with a different body and bigger battery, so xt912 correct?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Draxin:
Yeah, a Verizon razr, be it regular or maxx is xt912.

One thing you can try is to wipe dalvik and cache in recovery and see if that works. I have had issues wiht MMS on SlimKat before, that worked for me.

After that, it is either modify the build.prop or find another ROM.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dbs179:
Draxin, what would I modify in the build.prop? I did a search, but didn't come up with anything that looked like what I needed. I haven't tried the wipe yet, but want to be sure I have everything before I try again.

Thanks,

Dave

This is the closest I have found to an answer... and it is for a razr M. It is supposed to work for xt912 too, but I personally could only find two of the four fields in my build.prop to modify, and it didn't work. Wiping the Dalvik Cache works for me, just annoying I have to do it every three or four days.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dbs179:
Cool, I found that thread yesterday, but didn't know if it applied or not. Thanks again for the help!

I'll post the required build.prop edits as soon as I get home tonight.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Hubris Khan:
Try using Hangouts.

I've had the same issue before using Mokee. A solution that worked for me was to set Hangouts as my default text message app and allowed Hangouts to automatically set the APN. Within the app, there is an option to manual set APN's. I haven't had any problems since. Hopefully that is an option that can work for you as well.

I just switched from verizon to t mobile and bought a note II off a guy, it has a rom already on it and it's glitchy.

Can someone tell me what's a good cool rom and tell me what I need to do to make sure I don't brick it.

I had the galaxy s 1,2, and 3 I put roms on.

Install the app from the thread below and let us know which bootloader and baseband you are running. That can help us understand what the best advice is for you.

Do you prefer AOSP vs Touchwiz? What are you looking for in a ROM? Rock solid and reliable while remaining well appointed would take you in one direction for mature TW ROM options complete with Wi-Fi calling.

Feature packed with the latest versions and bleeding edge development (usually bringing *quirks*) is another.

Bootloader and baseband are important. They tell us about the path to be taken to the next steps especially since a lot of the info from the app is derived from the ROM being run.

Bootloader is hard to fake as is baseband. They are not individually identifiable numbers like an imei.

i think slimkat would be a tricky one. afaik it's based on AOSP, not CM, and we don't have an AOSP based 4.4 release for the p930/su640. you might run into quite a few problems there, but give it a shot ^^

You would have to wait until it's rooted, and the bootloader is unlocked for recovery but it should not be difficult to build from source for it. I believe Ubuntu targets the Krait SOC.
[Fire TV General] robclark:
it looks pretty similar to inforce ifc6410 single board computer.. fedora w/ custom kernel and rebuild of latest mesa for gfx drivers, and you should be good to go:

https://github.com/freedreno/freedreno/wiki/Fedora

I guess same should work for ubuntu/debian/whatever.. basically all you need, if the distro doesn't already have it, is mesa 10.1 (or later preferred for more fps and features), xf86-video-freedreno, libdrm.. and of course a rebuilt kernel ;)

Hey all,

After flashing Loki's EnSec I cannot access my Omate as an ADB device via my Win7 command prompt. Also, I cannot flash Dee's Bluetooth ROM through any method. I simply get the Installation Aborted screen in recovery when I try and Goo Manager fails also.

I'm sure it is me, but I cannot figure it out.

Watch: Omate 1/8/1900

Laptop: Win7, SP1

Thoughts?
[Ornate TrueSmart] kp12584:
ADB found...still can't flash.

After resetting some SDK stuff, I can now execute some ADB commands from the command prompt. However, I cannot flash anything. I simply get the 'waiting for device' prompt...and I wait...and wait...and wait.

Thoughts on this new problem?

Can you transfer files to and from the device while connected to the PC?

Installing the SDK is not needed. Only Universal ADB Drivers.

EnSec 20140302 ? That version was pulled the day it was released and is five releases old. The current release is EnSec + Operative 20140318. I would suggest you flash stock (20140120 firmware only) and start over.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustRootDontCustomRomIt:
8 months ago I got my Sprint S4 i9505. I installed CyanogeMod when they released that "1-Click Root" app. So here I am today about 8 months of using cyanogenmod and I've went back to stock. I used Odin and installed the original stock firmware 4.2. Odin said everything was successful.

I'm trying to update to 4.4 KitKat then have it rooted but I have a problem. I'm on stock 4.2.2 right now but the Wi-Fi isn't turning on. "Prevention Information" is keeping it from turning on.

I don't know where to go from here because I have a feeling that something else is wrong. Maybe the "baseband" or "kernal" version is wrong? I have no idea and anything I do further will either mess things up further or brick it. Should I install KitKat using Odin and hope everything gets fixed?

I am a complete noob! I do not feel like going thru hours of research and understanding definitions in hopes of finding out my problem. I beg someone knowledgeable to get me out of this situation ASAP. I have paypal money, whatever it takes.

Yes, yes you should.

Go to Sammobile.com and download latest 4.4 KitKat firmware.

Boot to your custom recovery and format system, Cache and Data.

Then POWER OFF your device.

Boot back up into download mode.

Flash 4.4 firmware with Odin (lots of info online to do this)

Once flashed boot into stock recovery and perform a factory reset.

You should be good to go.
