Just got this phone today from Vodafone and its a phone they said was contract but moved it over to pay as you go.

its the black one.

I got it home and placed my three sim in it and its unlocked, but has the Vodafone boot screen.

After updating it to kitkat it wiped the apn settings for all of it, but able to enter them again.

Seems a Bargain and if it was locked its still only £2 on ebay.

6633 on quadrant standard edition.

[Verizon LG G2] transtang z28:
My wife woke me up in the middle of the night because my G2 was making a clicking noise. I got up and it was at a screen asking me to enter a pin/password and i had 0/10 attempts remaining. i didnt do anything abnormal with this phone before i went to bed, same routine as always. it must have been around 2 or 3 am when this happened. i restarted it a few times but it keeps going back to the screen with password prompt. it does mention it found a global sim card when first starting back up. also if i dont touch the screen for a while it really does start to make a consistently timed "click" sound. tried plugging into a windows 7 computer to at least get my family photos off but no dice there either.

this is my work phone and it is connected to an exchange 2010 server but the policy does not require password or encryption. Also the only other person i work with who has an android connected to that server has not had anything like this happen. no changes have been made to the policy either.

anyone ever seen this before? i can do a wipe if i have to but id really like to save those pictures and understand how and why this happened.
[Verizon LG G2] transtang z28:
I went to do the factory reset and it takes me into the stock recovery. Whether I try to wipe cache or do the factory wipe I keep getting unknown error 150. It says it can't mount it open cache or some cache logs. Any thoughts?

Thanks but I keep getting a fail error at 15 seconds using that guide. I'm wondering if my memory is totally corrupt.
[Verizon LG G2] transtang z28:
so the lg flash tool fails almost right away because the erase command fails, the only way i can get adb to talk to the phone is when i choose to sideload from adb in the stock recovery options, no other adb command will even run, they all say closed. sideloading fails because it cant mount anything.

is it possibly this is actual hardware failure?

i know im a noob here, but responses arent as frequent as i had hoped. would it be wrong to repost this in the general g2 q&a section instead of here in the verizon q&a? at this point its less about saving my data and more about not being beaten if it isnt actually a hardware failure.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reflekt:
New Nexus 5 (2 weeks old) and currently running Stock / Rooted. I have successfully connected my phone to my work VPN, and other VPN networks that I use but the issue is when tethering with USB (may be the same with wifi) my IP address is still my cell providers network. Everyone else at work has an app they use to tether with their blackberry and I had to be cool and switch to Android first with the Nexus.

Is it possible to route the VPN traffic on the phone through USB tethering to mac or pc?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
Yes, run VPN client on your MAC/PC, it goes through the tether to use you phone as modem, VPN layered begins in the PC through the tether.

The only thing I've ever had to worry about is Android and windows has different encryption defaults, you might have to toggle options til it works.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reflekt:
Thanks. Yeah, I was hoping it was possible on the phone itself. Our PC's get reimaged everyday (stupidly strict with the work computers) and have to start fresh and input the settings again.. and again.. and again. It would have just been one less thing to worry about.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
What exactly are you trying to accomplish?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reflekt:
Connect to my work network over VPN through the phone (which works) & then tether that connection to my work pc (which has some crazy restrictions).

- I connected to my work VPN on my phone using the built in Android VPN.

- Everything on the phone acts like it is suppose to, I can get on the INTRAnet, browse network drives, etc...

- I can tether the phone through USB with no issue however none of the traffic is routed through the VPN connection.

I don't really care about any tethering limits with networks as we have unlimited (including tethering) with Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile. I tried a couple of the tricks I am finding out but noting is letting me route my phones VPN traffic over the tether.

- Made sure changed the settings to IPv4/IPv6

- Tried out the tether hack by adding tether_dun_required 0 to the SQL

No luck so far I will keep hunting around this weekend. If nothing works I will just have to get the IT people to install some VPN app into the PC Image for me which will probably take a month or so.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
Idea 1:

Bootable USB stick running Ubuntu 14.04, you put all your setting to your heart's content into that image, you can then use the desktop device just as a big keyboard/mouse/screen and bypass any software restrictions and leave no footprint. Ubuntu does VPN.

Then its just the F key to press, F12 say on a Lenovo and anything you save is in the USB stick so any re-imaging is irrelevant as you never use that re-imaged at all.

Idea 2:

Remote desktop capability, your remote end runs Remote Desktop servers (e.g.Citriix) then from the local PC you connect to the gateway.

Idea 3:

Try different VPN software in Android. So sounds like the VPN on the Android device is layered only ontop for the Android apps not the whole device, so you need to put the VPN layer lower down. Try instead of Android's builtin VPN capability (Settings, ....VPN) try the VPNRoot app

Idea 4:

(I got plenty more... probably you'll like Idea 3 as its easiest for you)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reflekt:
Thats exactly what I was thinking but I run into the issue of needing to use the proprietary work software on the PC. I might do this just for the hell of it anyway because its always fun but it will probably just add in another step not needed.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nigelhealy:
Hit refresh I was mid-edit oops send, put in more ideas..... you reminded me of a related problem with PPP Widget and USB 4G dongle which is an Android issue with VPN I got a workaround.

USB bootable sticks are cool, they cost nothing really an old 2GB stick, and lets you turn any borrowed x86 device into what YOU want. Handy for if laptops have a bad boot drive or bad OS issue. Lifesafer, part of your kit. I mentioned 14.04 as it has out-the-box MMTP and knows Nexus without tweaks and it Bluetooth tethers well to Android. I'm running it :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reflekt:
Ugh yeah, I should have tried a different VPN app as that might fix my issue. I will give VPNRoot a shot later tonight. Not that it matters for what I need done but the "hacks" I used actually shows all data I used was coming from the phone, nice to know if I ever have to pay for my own service again.

If I want to change it from com.xviper.settings

to com.modded.app.something

??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Xtreme.Ornob:
[MENTION=5336161]Shahzeb5444[/MENTION]

Then You'll have to make a Folder named "something" and put your activities (.smali) in there :)

For Example Create a folder like this /com/modded/app/*something*

Then Go Back to /app and Cut everything from there and paste into /something

Then Follow the guide from the top :) :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] barth2:
Excellent tutorial. Thanks.

I like to add a couple of things

1) in some cases, you also need to change the package name in all *.xml under res/ not just in AndroidManifest.xml, because there may be layouts that refer to the package. In above example, you want to replace

com.xvipre.settings

with

com.modded.app

in all *.xml files under res/

2) You probably want to give the app a different name, too. In AndroidManifest.xml find

<application blahblahblah. android:label="xxxx" blahblahblah.>

xxxx may be something like My Awesome App or [MENTION=936943]string[/MENTION]/app_name. Just replace that with what name you want. This is the user friendly name that will appear in the home screen, app drawer, etc.

Someone coming across this may wonder what are concrete, LEGITIMATELY reasons to want to do this. I can tell you why /I/ did it.

a/ I have an app that does not support multiple accounts. I asked the dev to add it, and of course he was like okay I'll think about it, which meant like never :) So I decompiled the app, made a new package name, and now I have a cloned app that has its own separate set of account and settings.

b/ I have another app that I made some mods to, for my own education and use. But I want to keep the original app for reference. Also, in case something funky happens in the modded app, I want to make sure I can reproduce the bug in the original app before I report it to the dev.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Matrixie:
I've tried to do this for Snapchat - I have two different accounts, and I want to be able to have two versions of Snapchat installed so that I can use both accounts simultaneously. Currently my only work around is to use a 3rd party app, as there is no other way round it. However third party apps for Snapchat mostly suck balls, and are not up to date. When I tried following this guide, everyt time I ran the new APK it just quit. Any suggestions on how to achieve getting two Snapchat accounts running simultaneously?

hi

i changed secssefully pkg name and compiling sucss and after sing installed apps on my phone

when i opened app showing unfortunaty has stoped how to solve

?????????

[ example ]

1) original apk name is on mainfast.xml > com.tengo

2) im changed name = com.tengocharli

3) and smali Lcom/tengo to Lcom/tengocharli

4) app_name tengo to tengocharli

5) and in smali/com inside tengo folder to tengocharli

wher is that problem can you tell me plz

thats it
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
You don't have to rename folders, they are created by apktool and not used when compiling the code into the classes.dex file. Also keep in mind that you have .so libraries which may point to the original smali locations. You can avoid it by adding some strings to intern() method in each smali.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] outlyer:
This guide helped me a lot and I managed to get a working app for one of those cases where the main app can't handle more than one account. Thank You!

My own suggestion:

Don't overlook this step, look for the package name everywhere, e.g. the smali files may contain references to the dotted package name (com.xvipre.settings in the example) for paths, content-URIs and such.

Also, if the app crashes, adb's logcat is extremely useful to pinpoint the problem (although a bit harder to handle).

2) I also replace all "com/xxx/yyy" in any smali files with "com/xxx/zzz" not only those inside zzz folder (that renamed from yyy folder)

[Miscellaneous Android Development] xfive420:
Can you explain what you mean by "You can avoid it by adding some strings to intern() method in each smali."?

I was able to get the apk to install and run using the new package name without renaming the folders. The process name is changed in the list of running processes. But this app launches a service, and when it tries to do so, it fails and the app closes. Not seeing any errors in logcat. Could this be because I need to edit the intern() method?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fluffi444:
[MENTION=5169719]Xtreme.Ornob[/MENTION]: First of all - great job! this is what I needed! Tried it recently for my own but forgot the Lcom stuff..

[MENTION=919962]drgkt[/MENTION]: Mine too - Just change the apkFileName to yours and thats all in apktool.yml . Bisides this in AndroidManifest.xml are two locations to be changed:

package="com.old.name"

android:name="com.old.name.PackageActivity"

I just searched the whole apk folder for "com.old.name" and change what is quite obvious to be changed.... Works!

Sorry for reply to quite old questions but maybe usefull for new users... Was running into the same question first....

In addition search for this and change it also - Must be 2x in strings.xml

<string name="app_name">Old App Name</string>

If the app is a system app, then it can be a very touchy/sensitive area since some modified system apps will install and some either need much more work or can't be done to a point where it can do more harm than good if forced. It all depends on how deeply it's tied into the system as well as its dependencies.

If it's not a Firmware oriented apk file, then you don't need to load the framework file.

I've also got Apktool jar v2.2.4 but, earlier today, iBotPeaches just released Apktool jar v2.3.0. This jar file is very important to keep up to date and is announced/released within the following thread.
