[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwertius:
Hello,

This is my first post here. I hope this is the right forum - new users are not allowed to post everywhere so I didn't have much choice.

I have LK bootloader source code which I need to build and flash to a Nexus 5 device.

* I got the source code from the Code Aurora website

* I made a guess which branch is the stable branch I need, because I found no mention of it anywhere (I took "kk_2.7-stable", where kk means kitkat)

* On a Debian 7 stable machine, I installed a GCC cross compiler from Deb packages built using Emdebian tools

* I made a guess which target to compile, because the exact chip name didn't have its own: I use msm8960

* I created some symlinks to the cross-building tools because the makefile and the debian cross-building tool names are different

* I ran 'make msm8960' and the build was successful (I also tried earlier with NDK prebuilt GCC but it failed)

* I got a bunch of files with no idea what to do with them

* I attached the device to the computer and re-flashed the stock bootloader to make sure it works

* I checked the fastboot screen: Bootloader unlocked, secure boot is on

* I tried flashing the 'lk' binary file I got from the build process, but fastboot says:

sending 'bootloader' (1702 KB)...

OKAY [ 0.239s]

writing 'bootloader'...

FAILED (remote: invalid bootloader image

)

The size of the file is much smaller than the size of the stock bootloader, but I don't know if it matters or what exactly I need to flash. I did a lot of web search, including here on XDA, but found no evidence of anyone struggling with flashing the bootloader.

What am I missing? How do I flash the bootloader after I build it?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
https://www.codeaurora.org/blogs/little-kernel-based-android-bootloader

I don't see any evidence of support for the Nexus 5 here. Playing with your bootloader like that is potentially very dangerous and could easily result in bricking your device, possibly beyond normal repair. What do you hope to accomplish with this? It seems like it would only be useful for older devices. I don't believe our devices have any bootloader weaknesses that really need to be addressed.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
What about flashing the well-known bootloader for hammerhead??? HHZ11k
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Isn't that just the newest stock one?

Off-Topic: I rock the Reborn theme too often.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Primokorn:
Yes it is, so I don't understand why someone would like to flash something else.

:cool:

LoL Thought so. Seems like he knows just enough to get himself into trouble. ;)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qwertius:
I'm trying to flash a modified bootloader, so I needed something I can edit on source code level, compile and flash. But it seems people use the freedom given by the MIT license to take away other people's freedoms: The source code of the Nexus 5 bootloader (although probably LK based, judging by the output of `strings`) is not available online.

I guess I'll need an older device which does have a bootloader with source code available, which I can modify. Somehow I got the impression Nexus 5 had such a bootloader. My mistake.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] (dylanger):
Hi qwertius,

Did you end up getting far with this? It looks like the only way to modify the LK Bootloader is to load it into IDA / a debugging and patch your way.

I have a OnePlus One that I'm trying to patch, I doubt any vendor would release their bootloader source.

Just rooted and sim unlocked my lg g2 ls980

but when i get to this step:

"Replace /etc/apns-conf.xml with this file and delete /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db to make APNs stick automatically.

once i get to that step and delete telephony.db and restart the phone, telephony.db is still there! and i cant add apns!!

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Liquorsicc92:
Hey guys! I've been playing a PSP emulator on my note 3 and it runs pretty hot. I was wondering if anyone had any idea of how hot is too hot for the cpu. The battery stays pretty cool so I'm not worried about the battery temp, only the cpu. Thanks in advance!﻿
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Lorettaa:
The cpu's in these things will produce some heat when fully ramped up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Liquorsicc92:
Yes I am aware of that lol My concern is if i should worry about it and what temperatures should I watch out for. Thank you for your reply.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] xda23:
Anything over 100 f I would be concerned about. Enjoy!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Eric214:
The phones have a thermal throttle, so you should be fine unless you adjusted the throttle. In that case you should already know what's safe and not. And just an fyi, 100 degrees f is not hot for a cpu. Just when you feel something warm to the touch, that item is already at about 100 degrees f.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Liquorsicc92:
Thanks for your replies guys I really appreciate it!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Lorettaa:
I saw in a forum, 90 degrees for note 3 is still normal
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] pete4k:
Do you mean 90 C? Because I expect 90F ambient temperature whole summer and the phone has to be at least that much, even when shutdown. Add a little bit sun exposure and it can easily hit 120-130F without doing anything and I'm not talking Death Valley, Phoenix or Vegas, up there with outside temperatures hovering around 110 F or more, unless you don't come out from AC cooled room at all whole summer, the phone will be hot. If I remember correctly my computer CPU would start throttling somewhere around 80C, but my computer's GPU could go close to 100C. I would think phone is similar, except without active cooling, it probably starts to throttle sooner.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bobbyphoenix:
I use Battery Monitor Pro, and it keeps track of daily temps for the week. My lowest is 97.2F, and highest is 104.2F. It gets hottest playing games, but nothing so hot that I have to stop. As previously said the phone has a built in throttle. You can even know when it kicks in as the screen will dim a bit even if you don't have automatic brightness on.

EDIT - And by lowest of 97.2F I mean that is the highest for the day it recorded, not the lowest my phone runs at. Sitting idle with the screen off it's around 86F right now. I've seen it as low as 76F.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] krelvinaz:
My droid incredible would hit 118F on a regular basis. My GN3 so far has stayed below 95F. Live in Phoenix, but it it's just now starting to warm up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Lorettaa:
My bad, 90F I mean, thanks for correcting, it's like about 32c.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] jacqueline robert:
Are you sure about that?:confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Lorettaa:
yes, google it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Liquorsicc92:
Is Touchwiz DVFS what controls the throttling?

Hi,

It seemed you had a bit of trouble when reading the rules of the forum, so helpful mod is helpful and will help you out:

6. Do not post warez.

If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, then pay for it. We do not accept warez and nor do we permit any member to request, promote or describe ways in which warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained. This is a site of developers, i.e. the sort of people who create such software. When you cheat a software developer, you cheat us as a community.

It must be awful to have to take surveys when trying to download ways to avoid paying for things. :crying:

[Lenovo K900] mikey199:
Yup sounds about right though I believed it to be closer to 10 or 11. That's just formatting and android taking up the space. All phones computers etcetera list the size that way even though you never get the true size they advertise. Check your /sdfuse folder might be a rom taking up space. You can delete it but should back it up to pc. But it's only gonna get you around 700mb extra.

And can you tell me more about rooting unlocking bl etc...Thanks in advice...
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PloniAlmoni:
You can never unlock the bootloader technically but you can bypass its security using Loki though you have to downgrade from kitkat stock in order to do so. As you can see there's a thriving custom ROM community so this doesn't stop anyone, it just makes it more of a hassle initially if you're on KitKat.

---------- Post added at 06:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 AM ----------

Rooting can be done on any ROM but will trigger root detection if you root all the way. Flashing stock will cure that though.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mohitgalaxy3:
Root is available for Kitkat on g2, just root your phone and install autorec app on your phone it will do everything for you.

It will unlock your bootloader, and replace it with old bootloader and also flashed a patched kernel and flash twrp recovery.

With the new KitKat update, Android uses black color as System background. In JellyBean,it used to be a png image which reside in framework/drawable folder. But in KitKat, png has been removed and now it uses solid black color. Here's a method to use custom image instead of black color.

1.Decompile framework-res.apk

2.Open drawable folder and find this xml file-

Replace this line-

with this-

[COLOR="Red"][/COLOR]

3.Now navigate to res\drawable-sw360dp-xhdpi (it may be xxhdpi for high-res devices)

4.Paste your custom png here and rename it to tw_background_holo_dark.png

5.Now recompile

6.Finally push META-INF and Android Manifest.xml in your compiled apk and then zip align it.

My Xperia Play's intenal memory is starting to get lower day by day. I currently have 91mb free available and i've already uninstalled many apps that i don't use daily. I've heard of the link2sd partitioning method but whenever i try i get the error "Mount script cannot be created" and i've tried all the options e.g ex2,3,4 and FAT32. I've gave up on that so now i'm wondering is there any way to get my internal memory go up since apps take up more and more space.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
Do you have enough space on sd card? in my case, link2sd made ext2 partition with 1.4GB size on 16GB card (it didn't even ask me how much space it needed). Since i click it just for curiousity, i had to format that sd card in windows to get that space back. I don't need it because link2sd can move apps to sd even without that partition. Just don't move apps like widgets or launcher, all other is safe to move...

Or if you are using GB stock based rom (and you have unlocked bootloader) you can use kernel with 700MB data partition
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xplay21:
I have 6GB space left (i think that's enough) and i only tried to make a 1GB partition. Although you can move apps to the sd, not all of the app goes to the sd, a part of it still remains in the internal storage By partitioning, you can xfer all of the apps data (aka link) to the partitioned part of the sd card. Have an unlocked bootloader, currently using xperia Z final rom by markpython (ICS)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
Well, you can try to repartition sdcard manualy with minitool partition wizard
