Safestrap

If you wipe system when installing a new rom then it deletes safestrap. So rom slots don't work or is there something I'm missing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] dm1105:
Safestrap compatible ROMs *should* already come preloaded with Safestrap. Also, I know that if you flash (for example) the NC5 modules, it contains safestrap and it'll flash it into the system. So go ahead and mount system in Safestrap and wipe system. Then flash your favorite Safestrap compatible ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
No, you're not missing anything. There is no supported version of Safestrap on our phones. One of the reasons why is that slots aren't working.

You can use Safestrap's recovery to flash over the stock slot, but that's it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Haligan:
Ok, can you help me out? I moved my roms to my sd card and rebooted to install them. After I did the wipe it would not mount the sd card (i guess it is corrupted). Now the the phone will not boot because I wiped it. Can someone point me to the thread to wipe it with ODIN and install stock rom?

Thanks,

After well over a year with my unrooted S4 I've finally decided it's time to root. I come from the Incredible rooting days, but it's been a while. I'm not sure exactly what this step means:

7. Flash http://download.chainfire.eu/448/Sup...SU-v1.99r5.zip, this step is NOT OPTIONAL, without this file, your SU Binaries will not update!!! (This is important!)

What exactly is meant by flashing this? I downloaded it, I see it has SuperUser.apk in it. What to do?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Haligan:
I don't believe you have to do this, I think the SuperSU on the Play Store will work.

I did not flash that file and mine works fine.

Good luck and Happy Rooting
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] thekidkid32:
I tried it and the SU binaries are failing to install like it says.

Hey guys been awhile since I posted on XDA but I just ordered a Moto X and waiting for it to come and I have check the forums for other things to do with my Moto X when i get it. Besides the Active Notifications and Always on voice feature is there anything else I Can do to Moto X Root or other features that probably wasnt mention or lesser known features

Did you get the Dev edition ? I heard they have a 64GB ver out now. what carrier did you order with ?

[Moto X Q&A] ilovechi23:
no I didn't ..... I got the 32 gig moto maker from Verizon..... There's no root for the latest firmware is it?
[Moto X Q&A] XAlexander_AlexanderX:
I believe so and no boot loader unlock unfortunately... The phone is amazing either way. i'm on rooted stock because its amazing like that. I love touch less control, assist, and alert. I am a flashaholic but this.. this phone is just amazing. my friends are jealous of my phone lol.

MOTO X
[Moto X Q&A] ilovechi23:
Yeah I heard great reviews about it ...I used to be a flashaholic till i started staying with samsung phones .... This my first phone that's not a samsung in 4 years ...... Imma look around for a root method for the latest firmware and see what I find
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
to have a "complete" root solution you need to things.. 1. Root and 2. Disable Write Protection.

Starting with 4.4.2, the past exploits used to disable write protection were patched. i.e. no way to disable write protection on 4.4.2 and 4.4.3 when you have a locked bootloader.

If your Verizon X ships with 4.4.2, you can use Jcase's PIE root process to root, but it doesn't address write protection, so root is lost at power off/on. Also, since write protection is enabled, you can't write to /system and the like.

With 4.4.3, the vulnerability used with the PIE process is/was patched, so you'd need to wait on a new exploit and process.

If you are lucky enough to receive your X with 4.4 or below, you can use SlapMyMoto and MotoWpNoMo to root and disable write protection. Just don't upgrade, or write protection will get re-enabled.

If you had purchased the Dev Edition X, you could unlock you boot loader which does disable write protection and allows root no matter what ROM is on your phone. Moto supplies the unlock code for Dev Editions, and unlocking the bootloader doesn't void the warranty on the Dev Edition.

Unfortunately, for the retail and Moto Maker X for Verizon, Moto doesn't give out the bootloader unlock codes (same for ATT, Republic Wireless, and a few others). But there are threads discussing using a Chinese Website/Middleman to get an unlock code. If you get the code from this 3rd party, you're phone will be just like the Dev Edition X, only your warranty is voided (if they see the bootloader unlock status).
[Moto X Q&A] ilovechi23:
Well it will be tomorrow so ill see what version it has ... heres to hoping it ships 4.4..... Anything else I should know?

[Moto X Q&A] jco23:
is that what she said?!?! j/k

great phone, lost the desire to flash as this phone stays strong even without reboots. I and other folks have gone weeks in between reboots, and no notice of lag.

otherwise, take the time to read, reread, and reread the root threads. its worth it with closed, gravitybox, and adaway.
[Moto X Q&A] doitinthedirt:
Are they still shipping with 4.4 and not 4.4.2? I ordered two moto maker x in april and both shipped with 4.4 and rooted both with slapmymoto from jcase.

If its on 4.4 You can root and get write and make it your phone instead of verizons. if it has 4.4 make sure you DONT let it take the 4.4.2 update.. it will start downloading as soon as it finds the www.. wifi or network.you wont be able to hard root if you do
[Moto X Q&A] devilsdouble:
I am ordering mine tomorrow. After having a huge dilemma which to get I am choosing the X over S5 (no not because of money!).

Anyway, what I was wondering by reading the GSMArena review, they said the you won't be able to delete single entry from the call log? Is it still same with 4.4.3? Also, as I have never used AOSP before, how does the call log work? I mean with Samsung, one thing is very good (for me at least) that when I tap on an entry it shows the details of it rather than calling, but with hTC M7 I saw that by tapping an entry once it directly calls that number, which is really frustrating for me. How is it with the X? Call history with one tap or direct call?
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
The 4.4.3 update isn't pushing to the Verizon X yet, but on 4.4.2, I can delete entries one at a time, from history, by going into each, and hitting the 3dot menu button and select Remove From Call Log.

If I tap on an entry on the history, it gives me a pop up with the number, name (if person is in my contacts), the time of the call and if it was in/outbound or missed. I can then call back.
[Moto X Q&A] devilsdouble:
Thanks mate. So how can you see the history? I mean how many times you have called a particular number, or received calls from the same number etc?
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
It seems to group them within a few days... So like if my wife called me yesterday and today, they are grouped together, but if she called me on Monday too, it will show Monday as separate.
[Moto X Q&A] devilsdouble:
Thanks, it's alright then, just like the M7 was.

Ordered the White 16 GB version, I suppose I have made the right choice going for the X over the S5.

Since using the Moto X and G I've stopped rooting, this is coming from a flashaholic (see sig).

How do you live without Gravitybox? The stock ROM has great performance and battery life, but the UI customization is nonexistent. Why subject yourself to a terrible UI?
[Moto X Q&A] devilsdouble:
Got mine, loving it, as I said on another topic. First time in my life I am liking Android to be honest (I liked it a bit with S2 and Siyah but that was way back in '11-12). I bet you don't say it's a Moto X and compare it with S5 or M8 or Z2, and even a nerd will say it's running on SD 801 or whatever ridiculously high spec those phones have.

Anyway, I though don't understand this dialer! When I am tapping on it it's supposed to show me the number pad right? But it doesn't, it shows me the favourite contact list! Then I need to tap on that small 8 box type thing to get the dial pad, that's really time wastng and annoying! Could anything be done?
[Moto X Q&A] killerb777:
xposed and gravity box has the dialer mod.
[Moto X Q&A] eksasol:
I think too complicated UI is terrible too. I find that with flashing, I always have to spend too much time customizing. I am really happy with ART and Google Now Launcher.

The apps I currently use are:

Notification Toggle - It allow all the quick toggles I need.

Greenify - It can't do automatic hibernation without root, but with the widget, I can tap it once to auto force close all running apps.

Helium - Root not required to back up.

App Ops is really the only thing I feel missing since it's important for security.

Root also can give issues when upgrading. Some phones you can update with root, but Nexus devices OTAs are extremely picky, if you change anything (anything) in /system partition the OTA can fail.
[Moto X Q&A] devilsdouble:
Thanks. Will try that.

I am noticing a crazy and weird issue though! I am on my home's WiFi and I turn off data when I am home, but something is keeping the data enabled somehow! I have turned it off, even made the network mode to 2G! Ultimately I had to delete the APN! What could be going on here?

This pop up came at least a dozen times, every time consuming some data, and deducting a tiny amount from my current balance! I don't care about the deduction but in this rate it will suck up all my balance in no time it seems!!!

See the attached screenshot.
[Moto X Q&A] jco23:
I just leave mobile data and WiFi on all the time. your mobile data goes dormant (for the most part ) when connected via WiFi. if you disable mobile data, then you cannot receive any picture messages (I believe).

in fact, I leave everything on all the time except GPS (battery saving mode), and get 3 hours on screen time easily.
[Moto X Q&A] devilsdouble:
Lol, it seems like your usage pattern is exactly opposite than mine. I don't use MMS, at all :laugh: However I receive some, that time I turn on data manually. I only use data when I am outside my home or office, as they both have WiFi. But I keep GPS on all time.

Don't know, I think it might have something to do with the Location reporting, have turned it off and since then haven't seen any data usage! Let's see though.
[Moto X Q&A] jco23:
you can restrict certain apps from Mobile data under Mobile data settings (or android firewall if rooted).

[Glass Q&A] jewnersey:
Lots about going Glass to PC but what about the other way around? Like TeamViewer etc?

Don't need input, just streaming display.

Thoughts ?
[Glass Q&A] tech.central:
I think; glass processing power, glass data streaming, and glass battery life while data streaming are the limiting factors. These may change with updated hardware.

However, small screen size, and the lag that comes with all RDP streaming would also make it impractical.

Lastly I don't see how it would be that useful (I'd love to hear what you have in mind though) and I still haven't addressed the other problem, which is is it sounds like a lot of work to code.
[Glass Q&A] jewnersey:
I'm doing my PhD (psychology) and will be using Glass throughout. Essentially, I need a computer to 'talk' to glass in real time and have a series of computer streams be available to the Glass wearer, either by swipeable cards, or some type of quad view layout. I was hoping that a direct video stream would be simpler than writing full software (especially since I've only just begun to learn java).

Battery can be dealt with (external battery pack).

Data over WiFi should be good enough.

I found this

https://developers.google.com/glass/develop/mirror/static-cards?hl=en#attaching_video

But we run into programming limitations at the moment.

And I saw someone had made an app that streamed from a Go PRO camera via a URL , with camera connected to PC, but I think updates have killed that option, for now. I have tried to sidleoad several VNC client apps but I can't access any of the fields to fill in server information.
[Glass Q&A] tech.central:
t

I think it is definitely possible with cards but I don't think streaming is. I have a GoPro hero 3 black edition and it is capable of streaming because it creates its own WiFi hotspot that a phone can connect to and stream from although it gets very hot while doing it and reduces battery quickly.

I think the cards option would work best, what type of data are you going to be displaying? Lastly I think once the newer model comes out with more RAM, a better processor, and a better battery that it will be much more possible to stream a live feed from the computer. It is definitely possible in terms of software, its just a matter of how difficult. I'm not sure if the current Glass software is going to be able to do the trick. But since glass is really an android phone you might be able to talk to th developer of an already-existing android phone app that streams from a computer (there are lots of them). They might give you a general idea of how to code for it.

I did look at the link but I know very little about Java (although that will change soon) and I only know some C++ so sadly I can't help you with the actual code.

Why has nobody ported HTC Dot View to HTC One X+ yet? I would have done so if i knew the relevant stuff.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] henderjr:
I doubt it has the magnetic sensor to detect when the case is closed?? As well as you'd need a case made for the phone too
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] asim.sidz:
The absence of the magnetic sensor could have been compensated by the proximity sensor and/or the amalgamation of the pseudo metal detector in HOX+. Also, it could have been implemented without the case as well. Just a notification screen with the bit pixels indicating the notifications.

I even tried forcefully installing the HTC Dot view apk on my hox+ but it responded ambiguously. Any mod that could achieve this would have been wonderful. HTC One looks great with it.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] asim.sidz:
The only healer for hox+ i found is "hovering controls". Still, very far from what i wanted.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] superchilpil:
You realize if you're asking for a port then you're in the wrong forum? Ask in the One X+ forums.

But I can bet the demand for such a mod isn't that great, so its not worth the effort from developers. Heck I remember the the One X+ and even in its prime the development for that device was minimal. Its a bastard device since it was released the same year as its predecessor.

Have you tried an AOSPA ROM? They have a feature called Peek that is similar to the dot view.
[One (M8) Themes and Apps] asim.sidz:
I came here because i coudn't find any relevant stuff regarding dot view. Most of the hox+ users don't even know that this feature exists on HTC One. But yes, my post does seem out of place here.

I'm currently on ARHD by Mike. Havn't heard about Peek but will check it out now that that you've mentioned it.

Thanks!
