[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roymental:
hey there, it's the first post I'm doing here...

so I try to be as precise as possible :)

The history:

- first I unlocked bootloader, thanks to help by TheRazrGuy, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEmem7VhnlQ

- then installed TWRP recovery with the help of recovery installer by lebobo, see here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2281224

- installed rom kernel by Omar-Avelar, see here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2174731

- installed all apps and system data with titanium. Titanium tells me to reboot, I obey and get stuck in a reboot loop (google color-balls flying around....)

- I reboot recovery and make TWRP Wipe (that was probably stupid). TWRP wipes for hours, I am very very tired, midnight now, and impatiently turn off phone in despair (by pressing Power, vol up and down simoultaniously. That was probably very stupid, cause I get stuck in a "Warning Bootloader unlocked" screen, can't turn off or manipulate anything.

- I get suicidal now.

- At 3am I give up. Next day I find out how to get back in recovery mode (press vol and power, release vol when green light turns off)

- then installed CWM touch recovery (again with the help of recovery installer by lebobo)

- then again installed rom kernel by Omar-Avelar

- now I have no sound at all

- I was rebooting, checking everything...

- I reinstalled some of my apps with titanium

- Still no sound at all (no notification, alarm, nor on headset or speaker, can't talk to anyone on phone, can't hear anything on phone). Vibration works.

I couldn't find the same problem in a thread...

How to get back back sound on my phone? Do I have to start from beginning again? Could it be the Rom-Kernel?

Thanks & Cheers!
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazou:
This problem has been resolved in hundreds of threads here. Remove the alsa folder in the data partition and reboot if I am correct.

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roymental:
Nice, that helped, sound is back. Thank you very much!

Sorry I didn't find the answer myself. Will try to search deeper next time!
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roymental:
hmmm....in what kind of world do we live where removing a little folder in a folder will bring back communication?

let's imagine I had crashed in a tree, I'm bleeding but I can't call emergency because I didn't remove a folder in my phone. I'm dying because my research wasn't deep enough and the folder I've never heard of before was still there. probably moto was right with it's "WARNING BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED". Because unlocking, that's the culprit. :eek:
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rodrigoauditore:
There's worse things that can happen to your phone. That's why they warn you.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazou:
That are just all those little things that change a ROM or official firmware. It works when it works, if u alter just a small thing all hell can break lose.

That's also why unlocking the boot loader is at your own risk. If something goes wrong and u can't do anything, it totally your problem.

That's why modding isn't for the faint of heart, or something like that. For the persons that dunno how those things work. I always say, do your research before doing anything and make a backup before changing things u don't know anything about.

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roymental:
Hey Hazou & Rodrigo, thanks for your answers!

Probably due to my bad english, I guess I was misunderstood. I'm very aware of the risk I take whenever manipulating the system areas of any modern device. I have great respect for the people here, respect for your authority and knowledge. I would not have shed one thought of guilt to anyone if my razr was bricked forever - i know, it's my problem, my risk, my fault.

Maybe it doesn't seem like this, but I really invested a lot of time in research, reading, trying out. If I had more time besides job, family, music I definitely would learn to code. So my joy, since I was a kid, is to rely on the people who fulfilled my dreams in building machines and coding and do whatever I can to have one feet in the technical world.

What I wanted to say at first was more a philosophical question not at all a critique against the world of bootloaders and application engineers: We depend so much on our technology that the lack of removing a folder can decide about live or die...isn't that ironic?

It was probably totally inappropriate to post that thought in here, but I couldn't withstand... :D
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazou:
Yep, it is indeed ironic than. Based on a small little thing that u chance and it goes wrong at million places.

It was totally not inappropriate, maybe just a little miscommunicated. But so, we all learn :)

Hi there.

Anybody who have an url for DL Original N7105XXDLK7 Samsung ROM.

Running now CyanogenMod 11, but need to go back to the Samsung ROM.

Best regards

Jan
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soralz:
Why don't go search for google first?

http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-N7105
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAKIV:
Well of course i did that.

samsung-updates was on of my first side to look in, but it don't contain the ROM for N7105XXDLK7

Traveled the net for 3 hours.

So where else to go ?

Best regards.

Jan
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KagerouXD:
did you try www . sammobile.com/firmwares/2/
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JAKIV:
Hello

Maybe I misunderstood something.

When I look under "Settings" - "About Phone" and look under the Baseband version I read: N7105XXDLK7

Now when I want Samsung Original Software back at it again it might be a completely different ROM I should be looking for.

ROM must support Danish.

The phone is a Samsung (GT-N7105) LTE

The phone is Rooted and there's Team Win Recovery Project v. 2.7.0.2 installed on it.

Yes, I'm a little rookie in this area :(

Best regards

[Galaxy Ace II General] Ryccardo:
I was going to release this as a ROM, but as you may know Rox is pretty busy these days so he hasn't replied to me yet to my request for permission to fork CM11 (if you're reading this, don't feel offended and take your time!) so I chose to reward the DIYers by releasing the differences from it... and of course devs that share my view of the ideal ROM will hopefully reuse them ~

So yes, this is basically an expansion pack for CM11. After downloading the sources, just before `brunch codina` you extract the zip over them.

What does this do anyway? What's included?

The main feature is that partitions 8 and 9 (sdcard/UMS and preload/HIDDEN) are ignored. You can completely delete them and get a 3 GB /data partition for ART or whatever. Unlike swapping storages (or not swapping them!), this doesn't confuse apps written with only one media partition available.

Camera photos, your songs, OBBs and ASECs from apps that use them, archived apps, ... all go to the card you can always remove from the phone if you want to sell it or need service (keep in mind though it's not 100% sure that nothing on it never ends up on NAND), likely formatted in FAT32 with loads of multiplatform undelete tools available, easy to swallow if you feel the CIA is nearby... (do not try this at home)

There are also some other minor tweaks that I consider a core part of my Android experience, see the text file in the zip for more details or just read this box ↓

External SD only (on sdcard0) with [STRIKE]ASEC, apps2sd,[/STRIKE] OBB, camera, card hotswap, mass storage all working
/preload disabled
device/samsung/codina/overlay/frameworks/base/core/res/res/xml/storage_list.xml

device/samsung/u8500-common/common.mk
packages/apps/DeviceSettings/src/com/teamcanjica/settings/device/fragments/AdvancedFragmentActivity.java
packages/apps/DeviceSettings/res/xml/advanced_preferences.xml
BUG: Mass storage mode creates an empty drive, I suspect this can be fixed by playing with the LUN setting in u8500 boardconfig

"battery saving" profile limits clock to 800MHz
device/samsung/codina/rootdir/*

200dpi default resolution

Default screensaver after 2 minutes
device/samsung/u8500-common/overlay/frameworks/base/packages/SettingsProvider/res/values/defaults.xml

Browser autocomplete window size increased
packages/apps/Browser/res/values/integers.xml

So if you want to have a look you can grab it there!
[Galaxy Ace II General] judas1977:
Good job!

However i have two suggestions:

1. You should separate "storage" part from other tweaks... It's great that we have somebody with creativity but not everyone wants to apply all that tweaks (and even less will want to separate that tweaks from storage part (considering that potentially interested in your patch are very few in count;))

2. Do you have github account? is "githubish" version of your tweaks?

I played a bit with storages in that overlay (storage list) some time ago, but no success on that time... so i'm really interested in those changes.

When i try to compile stock OC kernel - i had to repartition my long time used custom partition scheme. And then i tried to recreate it without UMS partition but it ended with "no sd card" issue (you cannot take pictures for example) after memory swap... So i need something like your patch, but i don't have time to separate it from other tweaks...
[Galaxy Ace II General] Ryccardo:
1- Just remove all the unrelated files, I listed the names for a reason ;) (to leave maximum clock at 1 GHz, in device/samsung/codina/rootdir/init.samsungcodina.rc you can see 2 pairs of lines near the end with "scaling_max_freq" to be removed)

storage_list.xml → the highest level part, basically defines the functionality of settings/storage

fstab.samsungcodina → remove internal SD, change voldmanaged= part of external to match mount name in storage_list.xml, if you didn't rename it just change "sdcard1:auto" to "sdcard0:auto"

init.samsungcodina.rc → remove 3-line block related to internal SD, edit name and paths to fit previous configurations

u8500_common → remove swap option from build.prop

AdvancedFragmentActivity.java → remove swap feature from NovaThor Settings

advanced_preferences.java → remove swap option from NovaThor Settings

2- Nope, I don't know how to use git (or any equivalent) and if I was to add the extreme confusion of configuration files assembled from multiple places and quite illogical arrangement of stuff in the sources to a friendlier but completely different system as seen in the repos... :mad:

(and github doesn't seem to offer what I would be most interested in - highlighting differences from a previous version)
[Galaxy Ace II General] tofueatsbread:
Hmm.. Im thinking the author whom you said stopped working on oc stock kernel is you :/
[Galaxy Ace II General] judas1977:
github is quite logical and well organized :). Beside of this, it would be easier to manage your patch when files that you modified will be modified by [MENTION=4947931]Rox[/MENTION] or other TC member: You will have to make your patches again or accept that their changes will be overwritten by your patch...

When you click on last (or any) commit you'll see the difference in code it made, btw.

And I try to implement your changes to github code as a commit (should be easy if the sources weren't changed in the meantime).

Well, I never lied on that subject, never :).

UPDATE:

https://github.com/judas77/android_...mmit/139b9d446ea13299b311a82c1973c177d24256e2
[Galaxy Ace II General] judas1977:
OI just compiled new carbon build using your tweaks...

Everything seems to work good (i was really happy), but then...

It seems you cannot install (from google play, from Titanium backup) apps that write additional data on SD(1?):
[Galaxy Ace II General] Ryccardo:
Just checked a little better, there is a problem with ASEC creation (vold doesn't create disk images claiming something is mounted read only), cheap workaround is to use Link2SD or `pm` to force everything to install to internal storage
[Galaxy Ace II General] Ryccardo:
[MENTION=3841151]judas1977[/MENTION] I think I found the problem, I should have confirmation in 5-6 hours :)
[Galaxy Ace II General] judas1977:
Ok, I'll wait for the info...
[Galaxy Ace II General] Ryccardo:
keeping all other changes I sent you, in fstab try changing the microSD line (sdi0[...]mmc1) so that it ends with noemulatedsd

#<src> <mnt_point> <type> <mnt_flags and options> <fs_mgr_flags>
/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /system ext4 ro,noatime,errors=panic wait

# Recovery only
/dev/block/mmcblk0p15 /boot emmc defaults recoveryonly

# ZRAM
/dev/block/zram0 none swap defaults zramsize=104857600

I haven't managed to try it on last evening's Omni or CM11 as they both got stuck on bootanimation and I can't say if it's this mod or something from 4.4.3 still unpolished...
[Galaxy Ace II General] Ryccardo:
:good: :good: :good:

That did it. with "noemulatedsd", everything works fine including ASEC (and thus apps2sd)... the job is done :highfive:
[Galaxy Ace II General] judas1977:
So this should do the job?

https://github.com/judas77/android_...mmit/63aa54bd7e0465f8b3881184fd237188657c30ab
[Galaxy Ace II General] Ryccardo:
Nope, noemulatedsd goes at the end (after voldmanaged=sdcard0:auto) :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy Ace II General] judas1977:
Of course, that's because of that long lines :)

[Galaxy Ace II General] nikolas1274:
So if i install that patch, i will not see again the error "could not install on usb storage or sd card" ?

There is patch only for disabling internal sdcard or i have to apply patch with tweaks?

Thanks
[Galaxy Ace II General] Ryccardo:
You mean the bug where you swap storages but Google Play still checks the free space from the internal memory?

No problem with this method :good:
[Galaxy Ace II General] nikolas1274:
Yes i am talking for this.

Thanks
[Galaxy Ace II General] szentesb:
Hi!

As I see, TeamCanjica has changed the structure of the init scripts recently, so the changes you've made in "init.samsungcodina.rc" have to be applied in "u8500-common/rootdir/init.u8500.rc"

[Lenovo A850] AroPL:
Hi guys,

1:

2 weeks ago I ordered this:

Original Lenovo A850+ s MTK6592 Octa Core 1.9Ghz 2GB RAM 5.5'' 1920x1080px 13MP dual SIM Android 4.4 mobile phone free shipping

aliexpress/snapshot/6095479197.html

My happiness was short.

After I connected the phone to USB and noticed battery at 78% I tried to start my phone.

So I pressed Power on, wait, wait...wait..nothing. Nothing for 4 hours of frustration.

I connected it to my PC and for a few seconds MT65xx preloader appeared. I managed to install USB drivers, hoping to

get my hands on this phone other way than by powering it on by a button.

Unfortunately nothing works beside short battery status on the screen of this phone after I connect it to PC or a charger.

The battery is at 100% but the phone never starts.

Has anyone seen something like this?

Is it possible to bring this phone to life or should I forget about it and throw it to the trash bin?

2:

When I connected my phone to charge it and it showed the percentage for a moment, it never reacted to any button to turn on the LCD again

and show battery status. Looks somehow to me like power on button is damaged/not connected internally or whatever.

3:

I also wonder if it is really 1080p ips screen. From battery status its hard to tell. They claim its 1080p. Possible?

Cheers
[Lenovo A850] licklick:
your phone is original phone or clone phone? :confused: A850+ has only 1gb ram http://www.devicespecifications.com/en/model/e3a02b7a
[Lenovo A850] giorgoslouk:
@ aroPL:

If you bought it from AliExpress with those specs, it is obviously a clone.

Genuine A850+ does not have these specs, not even 4.4, only 4.2.
[Lenovo A850] AroPL:
It is a clone with upgraded specs.

I managed to get into "factory mode" but no key works to set some chinese test or reset it.

Held power for long on each item, but still without success.

Anyone has an idea what combination of buttons works in factory mode to select

menu item? Volume up/down works as item change. Where is "enter" ?
[Lenovo A850] AroPL:
At this moment I am convinced that Power On button is faulty. Does not work at all.

I connect this phone to PC via USB, hold Volume Up or Down, different recovery/boot menus appear.

I can navigate through them, but confirmation with Power On does not work.

It seems the reason this phone does not work is trivial - power on button.
[Lenovo A850] facundorico:
Sorry, but your phone is a clone, not is a original Lenovo a850+, the original have android 4.2, the processor is 1.4 or 1.7 not 1.9, sorry!
[Lenovo A850] irfanadli97:
I have no experience with A850+, but surely I (may) know what you are facing.

I will try solving your prob via theory. Satisfaction not guaranteed.

FIRST THING FIRST...

-You stated that you charged your phone till 100%. I assume you saw a big

blue

battery icon on screen. Did you press the power button while it's plugged? If no reaction, probability of ONE that your hardware buttons dead and you have to go to the phone dealer...

...oh wait, you ordered it online.....uh :p

Sorry to say that you are officially a victim of mobile phone fraud. And I assume that site, or vendor, or host is CHINESE, the country that's nothing original.

If that's the case even Obama can't help you. I'm very sorry and I know your feelings.

Looking forward to your reply if something works.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nicofars:
Can you recomend any local Sim card to buy once I arrive to Brazil,

I want to avoid expensive roaming specially as I will have to call Brazil-to-Brazil landline and to Brazil-mobiles to,

thanks for any tip.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] samaron:
Try teleco.com.br, onze you are there.

You can find it in every shops or minstores.

How long you are staying there?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vicobh:
There try Claro or TIM (telecon italia mobile), depends where are you going...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jubanet:
TIM - www.tim.com.br (I think the best option)

CLARO - www.claro.com.br
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] nicofars:
am going for 3 weeks

in Rio Grande du Sul, then Salvador,

I know I may get 2 different ones as the cost between region is a lot.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vicobh:
I don't know if Claro is present in Salvador. You can use TIM in the whole country.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] jubanet:
the best choice is TIM

Salvador http://www.timmaxitel.com.br/

Rio Grande do Sul http://www.timbrasil.com.br/portaltim/home/0,1606,20O0O5,00.html

Coverage Map

http://www.timbrasil.com.br/portaltim/home/0,1606,20O0O10O1230,00.html

for Salvador, choose BA in ESTADO

for Rio Grande do Sul, choose RS in ESTADO

then you get the cities

Claro coverage (in english)

I had no trouble with Vivo but the big problem for me was finding someone with a Brazilian national ID number to register the numbers for me. Also the prepaid was pretty expensive something like 2 Rias per minute. I would recommend getting a monthly agreement for prepaid.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] gatekpr:
If you want the newest version of Color OS v2, you'll have to use the x9007 version. It does have English as an option and all the menu items are in English. However, there are a lot of Chinese apps pre-installed on the phone as well now. It's probably best only to use this if you want a lot better performance, but don't run anything mission critical on your Find 7a.

Here is the ROM: http://pan.baidu.com/s/1gdHxnZd to be flashed only with Oppo Recovery.

You will need the latest version of Google Apps for 4.3, here. Which has to be installed with TWRP.

I did re-root my phone using the standard root afterwards (from the TWRP recovery) and all went well! Titanium Backup still doesn't restore, but Nandroid Manager does, if you need your text messages and WiFi hotspot settings back. Simply backup with TWRP first, then you can restore them!

Have fun!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] tasar:
Ok, but what is with LTE (4G), ?? The X9007 has other frequencies then the X9006. The 9007 has no Band 20 (800Mhz)
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] gatekpr:
Hmm. The X9006 is the US variant of this phone. Unfortunately, the US version of the Find 7a isn't getting ColorOS updates as quickly. All we are doing is using the newer iterations of ColorOS, which have no problem addressing the X9006 hardware. Does that answer the question?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Bronyr:
Can anyone post a mirror? Getting errors while downloading..
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] launton:
I think most stuff is in here?

http://mirror.lucky.li/android/oppo/

and here

http://mirror.lucky.li/android/oppo/x9007/firmware/
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Bronyr:
Hmm, hmm those mirrors do not have that same firmware. The one is find7rom_12_ota_011_all_r0001_wipe.zip

I'm currently downloading it from baidu but it's slow...
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] BG64:
I've just made the switch, and right now I'm really, really happy with it. Other then the first startup, where EVERYTHING is Chinese, and the lack of alphabetically sorting apps on the default launcher, things are working perfectly. Battery life and performance are easily the best this phone has had thus far with this rom.

IMO, this is exactly how Oppo should have shipped the phone in the first place, albeit with Google Apps and the plethora of stuff us NA users like.

I can post a GDrive mirror asap, and exactly how I transitioned from the International Beta to Chinese Beta. Done.

~EDIT~

Link to the ROM: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzFsQizh49FUVkM3QTk2V0tkNzg/edit?usp=sharing (This will only work with THE DEFAULT RECOVERY. Custom recoveries WILL NOT WORK. I have tried converting this package to one that will work with custom recoveries, but it didn't completely work. If anyone can help with this, that'd be appreciated.)

Link to the Root Package (Same as the default root package, just putting it in here for ease of use): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzFsQizh49FUcEE1ZDFBUHFuUFk/edit?usp=sharing (This will only work with THE DEFAULT RECOVERY.)

Link to the GApps Package that I have confirmed working, though I'm sure everything else will work too: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzFsQizh49FURi1VQmY1UlBzVEE/edit?usp=sharing (This will only work with CUSTOM RECOVERIES. The stock recovery WILL NOT WORK)

Link to the Original, Stock ROM: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BzFsQizh49FUbTN1SHNEU0h1SU0/edit?usp=sharing (Again, will only work with the default recovery. You won't need this to flash the Chinese beta, but it might be good to have on hand in case the Chinese Beta fails or something. [I just like to have a backup plan] )
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] zulugod:
Thanks for the great summary. Works great!

Anyone got release notes for 2.0.11? I can't seem to translate them from the Oppo site.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] justin654:
So does this beta(chinese beta) have 4g lte support?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] BG64:
Yes, it does.
