[Moto X General] legato89:
Before I do this, why would reflashing to stock fix everything? Are there any alternative solutions? I am basically on a stock ROM straight from RW, and am curious why it doesn't work for me but works for you guys.
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
If you read this thread from the beginning, you would have seen that I had to flash the RW firmware before it worked for me. Afterwards, it worked perfectly and it still does today. As long as you flash the correct RW 4.4.2 firmware, it is the exact same stock firmware pre-installed on all RW devices. It is signed with Motorola release keys.

Basically, re-flashing the stock firmware can fix a damaged or corrupted file system. It didn't work for me at all until I did this. For some reason, it worked for Cyphir without flashing anything. My only guess is that something was out of place in my filesystem. I don't have any other explanations.

Save what is important to you and give it a shot if you are interested in being able to tether. I don't have any other advice or options for you otherwise. Follow all the instructions exactly.
[Moto X General] legato89:
It's really annoying how you assume I haven't read over and tried everything except for reflashing several times now, and just want more information before I h have to spend the time backing up and restoring. It's not unreasonable for someone to expect things to work the first time being on a clean stock build.
[Moto X General] samwathegreat:
Annoying?

It looks quite clear to me. It *worked* out of the box for Cyphir. It didn't for me.

I stated very clearly that *I have absolutely no idea what the problem was*

My expectation was that it would work out of the box for me as well. It didn't. Why? Heck if I know!?

Moral of the story: "Whatever the problem is, RSD to stock fixed it".

That seems cut-and-dry to me. And all of that was outlined here already.

I'm done. Especially after the "annoying" comment you made. Someone else can help you. I've been more than clear that there is nothing else that will get this to work for you.

What is annoying is your unwillingness to do what both Cyphir AND myself suggested. If you are using Titanium Backup, you can backup AND restore in the matter of a few minutes. *FAR* less time than you have no doubt spent "reading over and trying everything except for reflashing".

My last suggestion is **DO NOT** backup the WiFi Tether APK. Install it from scratch from Cyphir's link. Do this before you restore ANYTHING. I bet it works immediately. And you had better save your backups to your PC, otherwise it will all get erased when you flash the SBF (flashing erases internal memory as well). Aside from that, Good Luck.

I agree that " It's not unreasonable for someone to expect things to work the first time being on a clean stock build". That's the same situation *I* was in. I just wasn't too "unreasonable" to try the only possible way of getting it to work -- flashing the stock firmware.

You and I wouldn't be the first people to have something not function correctly on unmodified, stock firmware. I can't tell you how many different individuals, with countless different issues, 100% *FIXED* their issues by simply re-flashing the stock firmware....

What I can tell you is that their issues would have never been fixed if they were too stubborn to do it.
[Moto X General] Topsnake:
Wanted to jump in and say you are amazing for finding these settings. I tried months ago but couldn't get it. Then i saw your post today and it works again. Great!
[Moto X General] Cyphir:
Not a problem. It is actually an app that I found early on in the Apps and Themes section of this forum. It worked for me where nothing else did and when I saw [MENTION=2509024]samwathegreat[/MENTION] needed a tether option, I shared what had worked for me.
[Moto X General] Topsnake:
Yeah i used to use the same app back on the bionic and razr maxx then the maxx hd but when I jumped to the XT1080 maxx couldn't get it to work. Couldn't get the combo right. However you did, salute to you.

[HTC Droid DNA] mulhiny:
Now, as a long time XDA user, I know these types of threads are frowned upon...oh well.

Anyway, I just picked up a DNA as I'm seriously sick of Samsung and decided to get back to my roots and the company I loved for so long. The DNA has been out for quite some time and hence the reason I ask the question.

For the long time DNA users, what Sense rom gave you the best overall performance and battery life? You know...that old favorite of yours that you compare all new roms to. Android version and Sense version is not important to me. I'm just curious the rom name and maybe a kernel you used, if at all.

I want to play around with this device, so just looking for some input by those who have been with the DNA since the beginning.

Also, I'm on TWRP 2.7 if that matters. So, if it is suggest I change recovery before flashing your suggested rom, please say so.

Thanks in advance to anyone who may reply!
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
I always run viper DNA it's a very good sense Rom and is always stable. Use twrp 2.7 to flash it.
[HTC Droid DNA] mulhiny:
Thanks for the reply. I did flash the latest viper. Good roms. Always used viper on my Evo LTE back when I was on Sprint.

Any suggestions for a Sense 4+ rom? Can I even flash one since my DNA came with KitKat on it?
[HTC Droid DNA] Jaggar345:
Yes you can flash one. The only one that I really liked on sense 4+ was viper. The old Rom is still around it's just way down there in the development thread or original dev thread I can't remember what one it's in. But it's around and it was very good when I used to run it.
[HTC Droid DNA] mulhiny:
Awesome. I'll take a look for it. I do enjoy Sense 6 (current Viper), but I'm having a urge to relive my EvoLTE glory days with some Sense 4+..

Thanks for the replies, Jaggar. I do appreciate.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jungsoowu:
I think battery life is also related to kernel. You can test some other kernel on your phone then some kernel may be good at battery life.
[HTC Droid DNA] mulhiny:
I actually ended up flashing the Viper Rom that still has the Sense 4+ and battery life had been awesome. I tried the latest, but just wasn't as good..maybe tonight I will try Sense 6 again with a kernel. Any suggestions?

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Big__ed:
Hey guys, I recently received a new s4 via warranty. Phone came with 4.4 m919uvufnb4 and NB4 boot loader.

I followed the CF root technique to get root, but for the life of me not a single rom I have tried gets working call audio. It seems all solutions posted on the forum are for people with the same issue but on an MDL boot loader.

I have tried playing with the different modems/diff. LTE modems from 4.3 and 4.2 but no luck.

Tried 4.4 GE rom, and Cynogen/AOSP roms - no luck

Any help is appreciated guys - Really want to get his working if at all possible and haven't been able to find anything. Thank you :good:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Have you tried flashing the NB4 firmware?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Big__ed:
No my friend didn't try that. But shouldn't the phone already come with nb4 firmware being that it came with nb4 out the box vs an upgraded phone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
Yes it should, but those symptoms sound like maybe something didn't flash right, if that doesn't work I would contact T-Mobile for a replacement.. Looks for Fenny's 4.4.2 firmware
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Big__ed:
Now that i think about it, i have flashed original 4.4 back on it but never tested call audio.

But just to further describe my issue. On custom roms audio does initially work but eventually stops working after a call or two.

I wi definitely flash nb4 firmware back on and test. Ill paot results shortly.

Thx!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Big__ed:
Just wanted to thank you kind sir - issue ended up being a hardware one. Got a new replacement and all is good.

Thanks again.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Trigz671:
hardware?

how did you figure out it was a hardware problem.... I'm goin thru the same thing. took me forever to finally do a Nb4 update with working sounds and wifi. but i still dont have call audio. anyone? sgh-m919 on nb4 bootloader nb4 baseband nb4 pda nb4 everything. stock rom.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] Big__ed:
Honestly im not the best reource to answer your question, being this happened to me so long ago. I do remember the struggle of dif. Roms, and flashing the correct baseband didnt work. Last avail was flashing back to stock via odin and still no sound.

At that point i contacted my phone carrier who was responsible for sending me the defective phone. Since then my new exchange was all good.

Hope that was some assistance, i know this is a real headache. Goodluck!

Hi,

irun in many problems with my new THL T100S - Iron man (4.2.2):

After at least getting root i want to change the recovery. So i got the CWM-recovery from NeedRom.

But all ways to flash the recovery.img run into errors:

bede@jupp ~/android2 $ fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (5912 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.200s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote:
partition 'recovery' not support flash)
finished. total time: 0.208s

so i want to kknow if there is a recovery partition.

See:

bede@jupp ~/android2 $ adb shell
shell@Android:/ $ cat /proc/emmc
partno: start_sect nr_sects partition_name
emmc_p1: 00000400 00000002 "ebr1"
emmc_p2: 00004800 00005000 "protect_f"

emmc_p7: 001f8000 00c34000 "usrdata"
emmc_p8: 00e2c000 02c09800 "fat"

what shows that there is no "recovery" partition.

So: Is there any chance to get a new recovery, and at least a custom rom??

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sruf:
Hi there,

i am a big fan of HTC sense in general but one thing that prevents me from using htc sense contacts app is the slow loading time of contacts pictures.

If you scroll down the contacts list fast you will see a black default picture for each contact though there is a picture assigned. it just takes about 1 sec to load the custom pictures assigned to each contact.

my question: is it possible to change the cache settings for contacts app so all contacts pictures are loaded at startup when using this app?

there are several other contacts app (like EX Dialer) which do it better but i would like to use almost every app of HTC Sense because it is a persistent ecosystem with almost same look and feel for each app.

(i hope this was not too complicated)

Anyone got an idea?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] AarSyl:
Hello, everyone. I'm new around these forums, but I have been following for quite some time. I have rooted my HK M8, and I flashed the CHECKM* kernel (both RLS3 & 4). I have been experiencing sporadic reboots, and I wanted to know if someone could pull the stock kernel from the latest OTA for me. I'm running official software, version 1.54.654.13. It seems as there are no S-Off exploits for the HK model as yet, so I'm being very wary of what I do.

Thanks.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackhawk_LA:
Hi, I have a very strange problem on my DHD. I started to have a lot of FC, making the phone unusable. I tried to make a factory reset from settings but the phone got stucked at HTC logo, and nothing was wiped. I made a factory reset from bootloader, but the phone vibrated three times and also got stucked at logo. I made a factory reset from recovery and the process was completed, but with some errors. Then I rebooted and nothing was wipe, and the FC's were still there.

So I decided to flash an RUU, the process was completed and now I have exactly the same! Same ROM, same data, nothing wiped, nothing flashed.

So it seems like the memory is corrupted and not writable at all or something like that?

[IDEs, Libraries, & Programming Tools] mkmatlock:
I just wanted to let the XDA community know that I've started a bitbucket project to port PDFBox to android. The repository is available at bitbucket.org/mkmatlock/android-pdfbox

Currently, I've ported a subset of java.awt to support geometry and ICC color management classes (using apache Sanselan and the sun awt source code), and trimmed out unsupported functionality from PDFBox that depends on BufferedImage and other awt native classes.

I have tested some features including:

-Text Extraction

-Annotation Parsing

I assume that other features still work, but I have not been focusing my efforts anywhere else.

I would be very happy if people wanted to contribute to the effort by forking and submitting pull requests to the project.

I hope that this library becomes useful to the community. Currently, it is buggy, it is missing many PDFBox features, and it likely won't compile correctly when you first clone the repository, but I think we can put together a nearly feature complete port without killing ourselves over it.

Thanks for your interest.

No, it's not a problem. The Android ID is a randomly generated thing when you first boot the device. Normally, apps do not care about this ID, but some paid ones do lock onto a single ID so it cannot be shared by posting the APK.

This is an insanely outdated copy protection method though, as many people has more than one device (tablets), so you can just ignore it. Either press yes or no, it does not matter. If you're afraid to break anything, just say no to the restore.
