[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Corkerman:
Alright, I think I have the latest version of cwm. Can I just install it then or do I need to clear the external card's kitkat OS first? And I can remove the SD card before rebooting and the KitKat OS will run without the card, right? One more thing: will it wipe my device if I install it on the emmc, and will I still need to install the GAPPS add on once again? Sorry for the noob questions \:

[A3000 General] Olivier:
Hey,

I've created this thread to ask everyone who owns this device (be it the H, the F or just the A3000 variants) for help.

Long story short: Lenovo did publish the kernel source, but it's incomplete and therefore not compilable.

Using a prebuilt zImage, I have managed to build an (actually) fully working CWM. But that's of no use if we have nothing to flash. :D

Now, what can you do?

a) Prove me wrong and point me to a complete kernel ☺

b) "Force" Lenovo to publish complete sources by spamming them with Emails or something similar on social networks. Believe me or not - this could seriously work.

c) If you're a developer willing to collaborate - PM me.

Thanks.

Current state (as of 25/11/2014)

It boots!
[A3000 General] zipperklooder:
I don't think CM has been ported over to the A3000. I hope there will be a custom ROM available for this device soon, as there are currently none...
[A3000 General] faissl:
What the point of publishing incomplete source code?
[A3000 General] Olivier:
Good question. Ask MediaTek and/or Lenovo.

I knew that MediaTek did not want to release driver updates (for Android 4.3/4.4) of its mobile SoC, MediaTek MT8389 (I do not know for what strange reasons).

This problem is well known to the owners of ASUS MemoPad HD 7, that has similar SoC (MT8125)!
[A3000 General] faissl:
So our target will be Mediatek not Lenovo?
[A3000 General] brunix86:
ASUS has replied to different users that could not update Android for this reason.

I suppose then that MediaTek is our target... and its not a good thing...

Hi. As I know, working kernel sources exsists. Luckasfb has been built kernel for chinese firmware. We just need to ask him for sources.
[A3000 General] Olivier:
I know... And I have asked him to share them with me or upload them somewhere, but he doesn't want to.
[A3000 General] medved_100500:
He has been post changes on 4pda. We can do the same and get kernel work.

however he must replay me:confused:
[A3000 General] Karamvir Singh:
One little problem is that he doesn't update the OP much....though he keeps on pushing updates to his build server.....this gives the illusion he has stopped working.....but still he just recently pushed out an update to OP in that thread....fixing a few bugs.....which makes it clear that he has not gone.....
[A3000 General] Olivier:
Are you for real? I don't have to reply to anyone. I ignore most of the posts because they have already been answered multiple times.

So you guys think I'm inactive? Fine, but keep it for yourselves and stop spreading conspiracy theories. I don't want to sound rude, but it really makes me angry that you seem to unable to appreciate my efforts. The guys at HubDroid were nice enough to provide me with a server that allows us all to get automated nightly builds, just like the devices officially supported in CM.

Do you want to demotivate me or make me angry? I'm a student with a real life, I don't have time to answer questions that have already been answered.
[A3000 General] Karamvir Singh:
Hey [MENTION=4329876]Olivier[/MENTION], you took me wrong man.....I had no plans on spreading conspiracy theories.....or make u angry in any way.....I am really sorry if I said anything that hurt you.....really really sorry....(idk why but my browser is not letting me put an emoji over here)

Plus I was rather just trying to explain him that you are working on this project and have not gone anywhere....so he shouldn't ask stuff like that.....but I think you misinterpreted my word.......but that doesn't matter

All that matters is that you shouldn't be angry....we poor fellas can't afford to make you angry.....you are like an angel for us puny A3000 users......so just stay calm.....stay happy.....and	keep doing your awesome job......

[A3000 General] Hans_Werner:
Hi everybody,

I am interesting to get cyanogenmod on my S6000-H.

As i know the A3000-h is very similar to the S6000-h. The only different is the screen.

I know that this is a A3000 thread, but i want to ask if it is very difficult to port cm11 on S6000.

Cyanogenmod on A3000-h and wiko stairway are the only devices I know were cm is booting.

Are there any chances?

Thank in advanced for all advises.

Hans_Werner
[A3000 General] Olivier:
I no longer support (or maintain, if you will) the A3000-H. However, if you have a working kernel source for S6000-H, it shouldn't be very hard to get CM11 booting. If I remember correctly, [MENTION=5771814]gwhite5[/MENTION] was also working on the S6000-H - maybe you two could team up?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rsdhillon:
Okay guys I've kinda messed up my phone. I'm gunna try and keep this brief , but I need to relock and unroot my phone mainly for warranty purposes. My phone is In a reboot loop, i turn it on and it stays on for about a minute but then it turns off by itself (might be to do with a sunken in lock button I'm not sure). I want to send it back to htc so that they can sort out the lock button, but as it is rooted and unlocked , and simply not working i think my warranty is void.

I've watched various you tube videos and want to use an RUU to restore it , but I'm not too sure which one too use , (does it really matter?) . I am UK orange EE carrier . I've attached my phones details. Can anyone assist me further please , I am hopeless lol . Thank you if you've read this far.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
if your power button is screwed up it's going to be pretty hard to get into the bootloader and recovery. I don't know of any RUU for your carrier (doesn't mean it don't exist just means I don't know about it)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
anyway, forget the warranty even if you ruu the phone. the phone must be locked (not relocked) and tampered flag removed for the warranty to be valid. Setting the bootloader back to locked and removing the tampered flag require s-off, which will be impossible to achieve with a power button stuck (if this is really the case)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nateboi81:
If you really think it's that you're better off getting some tiny jewlers screwdrivers and see if you can pop it back up because otherwise your warranty is void
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rsdhillon:
That's the thing I'm not sure whether my phone constantly rebooting is a hardware problem or a software one. Also say if I was to use an RUU that wasn't 100% like what I needed what would be the risks ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rsdhillon:
Say I was to send my phone to HTC in its current state do you think they'd send it back or charge me for the repair ?

Also when I hold down the power and volume buttons I can enter the boot loader and use it normally, I'm beginning to think that I don't have a hardware problem at all. Once in the boot loader it all works fine , is there anyway I can do a system restore to set back to default (I know it'll still be rooted) . But I would just like to get my phone functional again.

I'm using TWRP and believe there is a backup file on my phone. But the whole using a backup to restore always confused me.

Say hypothetical I have no button problem at all what would you do ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
From the way you explained your first post it sounded like it was bootlooping even in bootloader mode.

If the bootloader is ok, then put TWRP recovery 2.6.3.3 on your phone, push this to your phone sd card and flash it in recovery, during install, select wipe data, flash stock recovery but don't flash stock radio.

http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_3-62-401-1-zip/

However, with TAMPERED and UNLOCKED in your bootloader, HTC will charge you for any repairs, the only way you can get rid of those flags is to S-OFF.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rsdhillon:
Thanks for that so that will get me to exactly how I had the phone when it came out the box , but just unlocked and tampered.

Does it have to be that version of twrp?

One thing that always confused me was the wipe data , doesn't that remove everything on the phone ? But does it not matter as we're pushing it onto the phone?

Is the link you posted for an RUU?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
first you mention TWRP 2.6.3.0 update it to 2.6.3.3

if you have a TWRP backup restore it

if you use the guru reset you flash it from twrp
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rsdhillon:
i've got TWRP 2.6.3.3. And i can use it perfectly fine , is it just a case of using the guru reset file to get me back to stock. im abit unsure on how to do this, do i put the zip file onto the phone and then run it in twrp?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rsdhillon:
Also guys how can i get the zip file onto the phone seeing as using the USB isn't working. Do i need to push it onto the phone? if so how?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] clsA:
what happened to the backup option ?

The Guru Reset is very simple .. it's a rom you install in TWRP

theirs even a video of it here >> http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/stock-rom-downloads/

To install busybox on a rooted gear 2, turn root on (sdb root on) and then push this package (download.tizen.org/snapshots/2.3-wearable/common/tizen-2.3-wearable_20140605.1/repos/tizen/armv7l/packages/armv7l/busybox-1.17.1-2.3.armv7l.rpm) to the device. Install the package (from a sdb shell on the watch) by typing "rpm -i busybox-1.17.1-2.3.armv7l.rpm".

I said this in my initial post. It provides VI. Without VI (or another text editor), there's no way to edit files on the device without a push/pull. Maybe you don't need that, but it's very helpful to me, and I assume to others.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] krash183:
*Build Quality/Performance*

Let me go ahead and mention that this thing is the biggest and baddest of all external battery packs! Rated at 32000 is a true juggernaut. This is meant for warriors on the go. It has ability to charge any laptop laptop, tablet, phone and everything under the sun. It’s about the size of my Nexus 7 (7 inch tablet) in length and width but undoubtedly thicker.

A three toned appearance in silver faux metal, glossy black and glossy white.

It definitely feels solid in the hand with nothing bending or creaking. It has a nice little lcd screen telling you the exact percentage of charge left and the output voltage. The voltage is more specifically if you’re charging a laptop that has very specific needs. 9V/12V/16V/19V/20V are all selectable output voltages. It pretty much has all the connectors for ever type of laptop you can think of, 10 in total.

It also has 2 usb ports, a 1 amp and a 2.1 amp output. To connect phones, tablets, cameras, portable gaming systems etc etc.

The one thing I never liked about smaller battery packs is that you'd still end up charging them a couple times a week.

I was able to charge my Nexus 7 and Nexus 5 at the same time with no problems. I also charged many different combinations of phones and tablets comprising of Ipad 4 Retina, Nexus 7, Iphone 5, Nexus 5, Samsung Galaxy s2, S3 and Ipad mini.

It take 2 whole days to pretty much go from 100% to 0% charging various devices.

Total MAH actually charged via devices = 24297

24297/32000 = 76% efficiency of the battery to charge other devices.

Basically 76% of 32000 is actually useable. Which is a really good % compared to other external battery packs.

Also, it was able to charge my Lenovo Y510p laptop no problem but I didn’t use it in the testing as I mostly used it when I was out and about.

*Conclusion*

If you’re looking for something that small and portable to use around the city this probably isn’t for you but if you fly all across the country and don’t want to worry about any of your devices running out of juice or having to find a wall socket then this would be. It is a monster of a battery pack meant to do serious work. For the price, having the ability to charge me laptop and every other device is a no brainer. Especially not having to worry if the battery is charged all the time.

WARNING: I am not responsible for any bricked devices caused by attempting this howto. If you haven't read this how to twice, and fully understand the requirements, then please don't attempt it.

Introduction (not important):

First, this may not be the best way to do this, and if someone knows a better way, I'll be happy to listen.

I kinda stumbled across this solution after trying the many other ways to solve the problem, but all the other ways seemed to have something incomplete with them and ended with no ADS, but no something else, like rotating lock screens or something.

I started with the assumption that the ADS program (dtcp) can be disabled through a flag somewhere on the system, for if you pay the extra $20 you get a kindle with no ADS, but same Android build. After looking through lots of sqlite databases I found it in the com.android.providers.settings/settings.db file.

Prerequisites:

Basic knowledge of databases

SQLite Editor Pro (Free on 1Mobile Market)

DroidWall

Steps:

Open SQLite Editor

Open "Settings Storage" (com.android.providers.settings)

Open settings.db

open "global" table

Highlight entry "IS_DTCP_ENABLED"

Click the Edit Record button at the top

Change the value from a 1 to a 0

Click Save

Go back

Make same change on the "secure" table

Reboot kindle for new options to take effect.

Other Thoughts:

This just changes the value temporarily until the device checks back in with Amazon and then the value will get overridden again with the correct value. To prevent that install DroidWall and whitelist only the applications you need to access the internet. DroidWall requires root, which is why root is in the subject. But you should be doing this anyways to prevent OTA updates.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" General] jimyv:
cool

Does this mean that you will now get the rotating native wallpapers that you would have if you paid for the dismissal of the ads? Currently I use adaway on my s4 hotspot and the only one I blacklist is (spectrum.s3.amazonaws.com) this has blocked updates because I am still on old software with no other blocking in place and I have noticed it also has blocked rotateing ads accept I have the same 1 at all times.

Edit: YAY !!!! and yes I now have rotating native wallpapers

This mod works fine. No ads, rotating wallpapers appear every time. No reversion to black screen. No need for Droidwall. Use of Droidwall is impractical for this purpose. Who knows what not to include in some giant white list?

It appears that the wallpapers will continue to appear without reversion if you have blocked updates using the root kit.

First link in this post:

I assume the block update action from the rootkit is responsible for the lack of reversion to ads since I haven't done anything else except the steps I outlined in the post and the data base tweaks explained above. My kindle has been running for 5 days now without ads and with the startup wallpaper.
