Not really...

Although I've been a significant advocate for this, I plan on deactivating my account by March 16th and am currently in the process of gutting it. After they flagged a post intended for one person on their timeline, I tried to reach out via secure message and got nothing. They also signed me off all devices and sync adapters...in the end, I'll focus on G+ as an ambassador for social networking privacy.

pleased update the module with high resolution photo sync.
[Xposed Framework Modules] estapagu:
Can someone check if this is working with v26 of facebook app? It's strange but it's working here with paranoid android 5.0 alpha lollipop and facebook 26.0.0.22.16. (First I have been testing with v 14 then I uninstalled and I installed the v26, to my surprise sync contacts option still appears on settings and works, so I wonder if anyone can verify)

?
[Xposed Framework Modules] THEVAN3D:
I have 29 version on lollipop 5.0.1 and it works like a charm..
[Xposed Framework Modules] estapagu:
:cool: cool!! So I guess facebook fixed the bug in the app.

It's a facebook bug. For high res pictures sync try haxsync on play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mots.haxsync
[Xposed Framework Modules] THEVAN3D:
yeah but if it is not possible then how do they do it in haxsync?

btw i am using ubersync for highres pics, back in one or two years ago i decided ubersync over haxsync.. now i cant remember what was the reason but since then j use ubersync.. but id love to see it here.. just sync and all.. no other app to do it.. thatd be great..
[Xposed Framework Modules] agentdr8:
Facebook could easily change this. The app uses the profile_pic_url, which is this tiny, low-res photo. If they switched to huge_picture_url, and then scaled it to something reasonable, pictures would look a lot better. To add insult to injury, there's some code already in the app for high-res photo syncing as an option, but none of the methods seem to be complete.

I'm guessing Haxsync/Ubersync/Sync.Me/etc are using the latter url, and then modifying the picture in the contacts database directly.
[Xposed Framework Modules] THEVAN3D:
okay, now I get it. anyway thanks for this amazing module. installing this module is one of the first things I do after flashing a rom.
[Xposed Framework Modules] minibootsmann:
For me, this doesn't fully work. I installed v14 and got the sync option. Then my system did an update of the facebook-app by itself and in the first time the sync option was still there. Now it's gone, but the facebook-contacts are still in my address book. New facebook contacts won't be added to the address book. Strange...

Btw. I am running KitKat 4.4.2 on a Mediatek-Device.

Guys, Facebook will not bow down to share its code and will continue to buy out innovators who stand in their way.

If they were any more ignorant they could teach Dolores Umbridge a thing or two...

By the way, I'm eviscerating and deactivating my Facebook account by March 15th anyway, and I've already told my connections to add me on G+ where I will continue my work with friends and Team Murkrow, a multifaceted community of my own creation, or connect the old-fashioned way - using your phone as a PHONE.

Hi Team,

Reaching out to the experts to kindly help me in pointing to the right thread for solving my issue. I am quite new to trying to installations using multiloader and understanding the overall technical stuff around(2 long days old). I have a Samsung wave GT-S8500 cell phone on which I am trying to get Badadroid 4.4 loaded. I carefully researched n checked this forum to get the steps and pretty much followed them. I could flash FOTA and boot files successfully, however CWM recovery keeps on giving this error(can't open E:/cache/recovery/last_log) and simply doesn't respond to any option I select. I formatted the SD card, got the phone to reset to factory settings and done pretty much as much as I could from You tube videos. But failing to get Android installed. I wouldn't mind cleaning the cell phone again and start afresh but need some guidance on the same. Your quick help will really help me get over this huge challenge. Do kindly let me know if I need to provide more info.Thank you.

Regards,

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jonny:
Manufacturers of clone devices almost never release their factory ROM's, or even their kernel source which breaks the GN GPLv2 license. Therefore you won't be able to find the stock ROM for your phone.

In addition to that we don't usually support cloned devices on XDA in terms of custom ROM's because the developers of custom ROM's buy the real phones, not clones.

Thread closed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Ryven:
Hi folks,

I'm new around here and did some research but maybe it is my lack of skill tho I wasn't able to find an appropriate fix yet. To the problem:

-as mentioned in the title my phone (stock not rooted) takes up to 1% battery each minute round about even while writing this text. Background apps currently active are

•Facebook

•my magazin

•tap talk

•gallery

•clock

•google play music

Band is currently LTE all other connection are disabled.

I already fixed the wifi always on issue but that wasn't that much of an advance.

Took a Screenshot of battery information and added as to be seen 36 minutes took 10% battery.

Is this common and I'm to needy if it comes to battery life or is this in fact not usual.

Thanks reading this wall of text.

Ryven

Ps.: seems I can't post the Screenshot sorry

Is there any way around this? I'm setting it for a double-pass with the highest video quality, and it's still unwatchable. I haven't overclocked it, because I didn't know if it would make a difference at all. Are there any better programs out there to make content clearer? It's incredibly pixelized. Thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] freeyayo50:
I use PocketdivxEncoder and i dont have pixelation issues at all. I dont even have to use double pass mode. I also use TCPMP.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Andy@Contacta:
In TCPMP ->

Options -> Video -> Quality -> Normal

That should fix it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] FESCSteve:
What is the source file you are starting with? If it's an already compressed file, you may wind up with this because you are recompressing a file with compression artifacts that already exist.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] DeniaL:
also, check to make sure that the video file you are using it set on the right resolution. 320x240. If its not that tcpmp might try to resize it to fit the screen which will cause some pixelation.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vwnut13:
I have an LG Optimus Fuel (LG L34C) from Straightalk running Android 4.4. This phone is (as far as I know) the same as the LG Optimus Zone 2 from Verizon Prepaid.

I couldn't find a halfway decent manual for the LG L34C so I followed the LG Optimus Zone 2 Manual to enter Recovery mode. When I held the buttons on the L34C, it would boot, show the LG logo, then shut off, show the LG logo, and do it again. As long as the buttons were held in would loop.

So I downloaded the ADB and tried to do it from there.

"adb reboot recovery" brings up the classic "No Command".

"adb reboot bootloader" just reboots it.

"adb reboot download" just reboots it.

"adb reboot fastboot" just reboots it.

What the heck is going on! I'm going crazy trying to figure this out. Why can't I access any of the special menus?

Oh, and TowelRoot didn't work to root the phone either.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vwnut13:
I tried to enter Recovery Mode on my Nexus 7 (2012) and noticed that I also get the "No Command" prompt. I was then able to hold 'Power' and press 'Volume Up' to enter Recovery mode.

I tried this, and every other imaginable button combination, on the LG Optimus Fuel and had no luck whatsoever.

Is it possible that this stuff has been disabled by LG?

---------- Post added at 07:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 AM ----------

now that i think about it my device was bricked.... maybe this is a special recovery designed to act only when problems are detected in the boot sequence?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyline247:
:o Well, looks like I'm in the same boat now, lol. Going against everything I've learned in the 5 years messing with Android, I had a non-thinking DOH! moment and changed the screen density. After reboot, I just have a bootlooping cheap paperweight for the time being. I can get into recovery, but there's no menu options. I am going to try to push the backed-up build.prop.

They really have this one locked down. I haven't found an OTA zip in my searches yackaro, but I'll keep an eye out for you.

root for lg fule kinda works

I got an lg fule from walmart and decided to root it(never done it befor on any thing)I tried for at least 6 hrs and tied poot z4 all kinds of apks and finely I get towelroot to work but I cant get full acces its says setuid attribute is NOT present BUT root user ownership is present. root access is NOT correctly configured for this file! what is wrong and what do I need to do? I have been using the phone for a week downloading apps from blackmarket and googls app sometimes its kinda slow but It wont let me move systems apps to sd,can delet but not movei have titanium bu supersu busybox pro force2sd esfx and rommaneger how or can I gain full root for kitkat 4.4 lg fuel?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ColtonDRG:
It is possible that TracFone (StraightTalk is a subsidiary of TracFone) is using special bootloader code to lock users out of recovery mode. I know that T-Mobile did something like that with some lower-to-mid-range LG phones.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyline247:
I can't (well, couldn't - I'm soft bricked right now) even boot into bootloader. To get full root, I think we need an unlocked boot loader. However, "ADB reboot bootloader" doesn't work, right now, as well as most of all the other commands.

I was able to reboot into recovery, but there wasn't any text. I'm working on getting the fuel booting again, but I haven't found anything that works yet. The hard key combo that LG describes to hard reset doesn't work. And I've tried many other hard key combinations, but nothing works so far. [emoji20]
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ColtonDRG:
Yes, what I meant is they might be blocking both recovery, and boot loader mode...

Sent from my HTC One (M8)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skyline247:
True. They probably are. I don't know why they would block at least hard factory reset, though. But then again, since we paid for our device (albeit only $30) seems like we could have more freedom with it. :confused: Oh well. :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlyingPoo:
LG has fastboot locked out. I was browsing the LG G2 forums when I found that people are able to get to fastboot by zeroing out their 'laf' partition and forcing the phone into fastboot (because aboot can't find it) where we can then flash a custom recovery.img hopefully. I have the recovery partition extracted and replaced /sbin/recovery with CWM and repacked. I just need to get into fastboot to test it. I will get a second phone from walmart to dev with, they're only $30. if anyone has a dev phone to test it on, read on...

This is theory and hasen't been tested. We may not even be able to run custom recovery or fastboot.

If anyone wants to pick up here be sure you have fastboot and adb installed and have some dev knowledge, not for noobs like me.

backup your laf partition to an external SD card (insert a micro SD)

dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf of=/storage/external_SD/laf.img

pull laf.img to your computer as a backup and to use later in fastboot

wipe your laf partition [I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU KILL YOUR PHONE]

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf

reboot your phone and connect it to your computer.

your phone SHOULD (I have not tested this) boot into fastboot as a failsafe.

on your computer

fastboot flash laf laf.img

fastboot reboot

phone should reboot back to normal.

This will test that we can in fact get to fastboot.

STOCK laf, boot & recovery files to look at. The included repacker does not repack the images properly. I use linux tools for repacking.

Sounds like we are a little closer, however you can push a .img thru adb already I know some people that did a mako build only problem is it bricked it.

Some things that I noticed that were missing (besides /sbin/recovery). There is no flash_image, dump_ image, or erase_ image in /system/ bin. Usually use flash_ image in terminal or in fastboot. Don't know if these binaries are generic, or device specific (partitions). Could copy from other device, but don't know if they will work properly. Glad I'm not alone in this. :)

What cwm are you going to use? Optimus Zone? Or did you compile it for the fuel?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlyingPoo:
I pulled the one in the Zone since that phone is most similar to ours, However I have a feeling the key bindings won't be correct, so I may still have to compile from source. I pulled the git for TWRP but haven't made changes to it yet. Its been a busy week at work and its only monday.

---------- Post added at 08:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 PM ----------

Those also don't exist in the stock recovery for the Optimus Zone. It looks as if busy box was added to the Zone CWM recovery now that I have looked at it closer. Its been a WHILE (Samsung Vibrant with Team Whiskey) since I built a recovery image.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibub:
Yeah, we might only get one shot at success (before jtag ), so it's probably best to compile from our recovery and source. I used Apktool to decompile recovery (dd if =dev/ block/ mmcblk0p17 of =/cache/ testrecovery/recovery.img). Ramdisk has./ sbin/recovery. Copied that to /Sbin/ . Disappears after reboot. Haven't yet decompiled boot.img. Hoping to find "boot", and fastboot. More later. ;)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibub:
Hot reboot is not fastboot. It is a partial boot of only the user interface. Fastboot is a bootloader mode from which you can issue fastboot commands (similar to adb). Be careful with the toolbox.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ibub:
I've posted this before:

http://source.android.com/devices/tech/security/dm-verity.html

but I think that it is more than just a coincidence that the article describes 4kb blocks used for verification, and virtually all of the files in /sys are 4kb. If we could figure out the structure, possibly we could calculate the checksum equivalents, and then maybe customize any modded blocks to have the same checksums. This may be extremely difficult..if not impossible. [emoji4]

Also, writers of FreeGee are talking about downgrade of bootloader because of loss of loki support in kitkat. Maybe we could use different bootloader from similar phone.
