[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I've been using the latest GApps ("stock" experience) from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2397942 and it works great. It will error out some apps the first time with a notification that you must update Google Play Services to continue. Sign in and update Google Play Services through the store and everything works like a champ.

A bonus of using the PA GApps package (if you want all those apps at all) is that they install to /system and don't use up as much /data space. Maybe not an issue for many, but every little bit helps right?

Keep in mind that the "stock" (i.e. Nexus-esque) package will remove the AOSP Browser, Messaging, and Keyboard. As long as you're good with Chrome, Hangouts, and Google Keyboard, this (again) saves you storage. If you prefer the AOSP apps, read the thread for how to keep them or install one of the other packages from the thread.

It turns out the issue is unrelated to Google apps, ANY application i use and try to download with will crash.

Try to grab an attachment from Gmail, crash

Try to download a file via Chrome, crash

Try to download via Play store, crash

I have no idea what the hell is causing this ive checked my Download and Downloader apps they are both running, ive tried restarting them, disabling them, and many other things...

At this point how do i return my Kindle to a "Stock" Kindle Fire HD as if i bought it from the store?

I may need to return it, im wondering if this is a hardware issue? Doesnt make sense though because everything else seems to work, i can go view internet stuff so the wifi isnt bad, and i can copy files to it via USB so the storage isnt bad...

Dolphin USED to do zooming and reflow nicely. Now most pages I need to zoom to see, just pop up a message saying "This page does not support zooming." So once again, they've fixed what ain't broke, and broke what used to work! :mad:

Could some one point me to a stock zvc KitKat rom. I'm completely stock and rooted right now on zvc but when I changed my DPI it somehow made my quick remote stop working and my stock keyboard. Both kept force closing. I tried replacing both in system and apps and changing permissions and flashing the remote flashable zip. I figured if someone had a flash able zip I could just flash without downgrading and doing a lot of unnecessary steps to fix things. I don't see any custom or stock lg ROMs for this phone.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kustomknk:
I am (was) running a HD+ with N2A 4.4 . This unit had a damaged digitizer replaced from a parts donor with a broken chassis. Everything was running no problems until a few day ago. I put the nook down before bed and in the morning the display will not work. I get back light, but a blank screen. i tried all the various button pressing combinations to no avail.

I plugged the unit into a PC and can view the nook drive and SD card memory.

I called B&N support and they suggested letting the battery run dead, and then charging it.

After all this I tried to swap out the main board hoping that this was the part that died because I have two of them and all etc.

anyway no luck with the black screen. In the parts of the cracked screen that still work I get full boot on both boards, that leads me to believe that the screen has died, is there any other potential causes or is it just a good old hardware failure?

or does the Mega on Telus display H+ instead of 4G
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Frezi Evan:
ok.. just wait please...
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PMikeP:
Wow, I spent a lot of time chasing this problem, thinking it was some setting in my HD+. (Since I tinker a lot disabling services.)

I have USBHost Switcher installed and it has worked fine. (With a gender changer of course.)

So I tried a brand new 32 GB Kingston USB 3.0 thumb drive I just got. (Supposedly compatible with USB 2.0.)

Nothing. I get a warning that the USB drive was "unexpectedly disconnected." (A race condition? Too fast?)

It's formatted FAT32, with 16kb clusters from the factory. (If cluster size matters to the Nook.) But I can mount a 32 GB FAT32 card with 32 KB clusters, and I can mount an old 256 MB USB 1.0 thumb drive. So the problem seems to be following the USB 3.0 drive. Any thoughts about this and what I can do to get it to play?

Before I concluded that the problem is with the USB 3.0 flash drive, I had tried my Passport WD 1TB external drive as another test of USBHost Switcher. That drive had worked before, but in the meantime I had reformatted it to exFAT. Can't see it on the Nook HD+ anymore. (Bad experimenting. Changing too many variables at once.) I'm guessing not seeing exFAT is a kernel problem?

Sigh. I'm not doing too well here with external storage. I thought I was being smart when androidpolice announced an Amazon sale on this Kingston flash drive. But maybe there's a reason it was on sale?

[LG G Flex] oscar786:
I have at&t LG Flex, rooted and than updated to kitkat, surprised was when it updated to Kikat and root was retained, I used all applications that require supersu and work like charm.

Follow this, If you did not upgraded root it with ioroot and don't unroot it, take OTA update and you will keep the root.

If you upgraded, downgrade it via lgflashtool method, root with ioroot and update ota and you will keep the root..Good Luck

What did you do before hand? Cuz you're literally the only person so far i think. I tried everything and even went back to jelly bean 3 times trying to retain root with different programs. It would always error out on the update screen
[LG G Flex] Intub8:
Pictures or it didn't happen.....
[LG G Flex] oscar786:
Basically what I did was I rooted on JB and when KK update came, I removed root from superSu "unroot", I tried to upgrade to Kikkat and failed, so I did lgflashtool (you directed me by the way) and flashed it to JB, rooted again and kept the root and superSu..tried update from menu and went through and kept the root.
[LG G Flex] brittoking:
Wow? So the secret is to do nothing lol? Thanks. Gonna try tonight
[LG G Flex] oscar786:
Just as proof
[LG G Flex] oscar786:

[LG G Flex] kintwofan:
Brittoking have you tried the xposed module root cloak then try the ota? Never know it might work.
[LG G Flex] brittoking:
You know what...that's the one dang thing i didn't try lol. I even had it installed before upgrading. I will tonight
[LG G Flex] oscar786:
Hello, did you try and was it successful, If yes,Please let others know to get root access through this procedure. Thanks
[LG G Flex] brittoking:
I was unable to try it out last night, ever since upgrading to kit Kat i can no longer choose which mode to connect (usb only, mtp, etc) so after flashing back the problem followed me which prevented me from running ioroot successfully. Luckily i had ordered a new flex yesterday from AT&T after their service center confirmed something was borked during the update, it'll be here Monday. Can't do anything till then.
[LG G Flex] oscar786:
Look like i am the only one with rooted LG flex with kitkat..
[LG G Flex] brittoking:
hopefully not for long!
[LG G Flex] phillip_viado:
i can confirm that root on kitkat works. i flashed back to jellybean then rooted then took the kitkat update, and still obtained root access.

I click software update in phone and it is saying none is available im guessing its cause im not a at&t customer can someone upload the kit kat update thanks
[LG G Flex] brittoking:
So far it's only available for AT&T so that's nothing to "upload". Without recovery for these phones there's no way to create roms from kit Kat source
[LG G Flex] hands0m3:
Downgrade to 4.2.2 then root phone using ioroot then take the 4.4.2 update this is for att g flex only you should retain root
[LG G Flex] nooney299:
I rooted my flex. Then as i was rooting it, it was downloading. Kk. When my root rebooted, the update started. When i came atop, i had both. I used titanium this morning to remove the bloat ware. I got the flex around 5pm yesterday so i haven't had time to use a lot of root apps yet.

[LG G Flex] nooney299:
Nope. I thought so also. But it had 2 parts to the upgrade. It went smoothly through both.
[LG G Flex] aznrice2k4:
All right, I got the ota and rooted while it got the ota. I am going to see if I can pull the ota.

Damn still can't believe i actually forcibly tried to keep root with supersu, rootkeeper ota, and it still caught my root everytime lol. Everyone else just took the dang update no problem!

Look like you got the new phone, try going back to JB and root and upgrade, I think this will work.
[LG G Flex] aznrice2k4:
Here's the thing. Update to firmware L first coming from C without root. Then once upgraded, root and follow instructions. Confirm you have root and check for ota via changing the date to a day ahead.

[Verizon LG G2] jdsabin1:
After flasing to 4.4.2 (vzw LG G2) I cannot for the life of me get Google Search to work ('ok google') on my home screen. If I press the Google search widget, it opens up the Google Now search widget and then I have no problems with the 'ok google' feature.

Anyone know how to make that work on the home screen? Using Nova Launcher if that makes any difference.

Thanks,

Jeff
[Verizon LG G2] jdsabin1:
Found the answer via Nova's developer (the answer is no unfortunately):

----

Google Now integration, in the exact same way that Google does so, is not possible. This includes the swipe to the left for Google Now and the "Ok, Google" hotword. The Google Experience Launcher (GEL) is not a stand alone component, but actually a bundle of Google Search, Google Now, and GEL. With current APIs, it's not possible for Nova to access Google Now in the exact same way that the GEL does. However I am looking into ways to achieve similar functionality. Quick access to Google Now is already possible by swiping up from the home button (on devices with navigation bars), or by assigning a Nova Gesture to launch Google Now. Some users have suggested placing a full screen Google Now widget on the left most page. I'll be investigating further enhancements in this area, but it's important to note that the exact Google experience is not possible for non-Google apps.

-----

Hope this might help someone else.

Thx.
