Hi.. thanks for your time..

I Have been reading many topics an thought maybe the issue i have is with android-x86-4.4-RC1 an my desktop hardware and after accepting that thought i gave up on it...a week ago i found out android-x86-4.4-RC2 comes out an now i am a bit confuse...help me out please.

1.when i install android-x86-4.4-RC1 to the hard drive the system was smooth..i could run most of the default apps anything i install mainly give me

[unfortunately app has stopped]..running it on desktop with on board intel 945 chip..i check settings an the drivers are mentioned on the android.

enter my desktop pc bios an switch to pci-e,an nvidia card i then load up android check for driver info an it shows null..

I am not able to run just about everything,default apps included.

After time pass,giving it another go i a running [android-x86-4.4-RC2]..Same problem as above but i am able to run some minor games..

jungle heat an so on...

also if i use the onboard intel chip, i can play zombie tsunami but the road does not show.[missing graphics] but

if i switch to the nvidia card everything shows but runs at a slow speed..

2.Can someone tell me how does the zoom in/out for games work running a keyboard an mouse..

i searched google but i am getting results for browser ,camera an so on i even tried installing a few apps but nothing..

I installed GLTools_Graphics but it stays on the check box section,may i need to install xda framework..i aslo tried installing chain fire but when i run it i get [unfortunately app has stopped]..

Can i install a custon version of android?

Also i tried a few generic androids an i think it detected my nvidia card but the system itself was to slow...

my pc specs...[HP a1620n] dual 3.0ghz cpu/2 gigs ram/nvidia 430.. a very old desktop i am using for now while i visit folks.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenchinito:
What's up guys, I've always wondered about it. You can get technical on me.

Now, I'm not saying it is an easy task. I know it is quite time consuming and I appreciate all the developers out there that invest their time in ROM Cooking. I just don't understand why.

As far as I understand, android is just a virtual machine, that's why it's so easy to install into anything (even some windows phones) and that's why we need huge processing power to get a smooth interface in comparison to an iPhone 4.

If it's just a virtual machine, shouldn't it be easy to port ROMs? you know, like how I would install MAC OS on my Windows computer without much trouble with a virtual machine. I know we have drivers to take into account and all that stuff, but drivers are already available.

For example, there is NexSense (a Sense 6 port for the Nexus 5) and the camera doesn't work (I would assume because of driver issues). Can't I just take the camera driver from my stock ROM and shove it into the Sense ROM and call it a day? I know it's not that easy, but why isn't it?

I feel like I'm debating the meaning of life here hahaha...

Thank you for all your answers in advance
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
This is because most apps are connected to the main frameworks files. Like your camera apk. The app is not completely self contained. It requires HTC framework files which is built to run on only HTC devices. Then you add in the needed kernels which are device dependent. And that is just the beginning. Not to mention a lot of this stuff is closed sourced so porting is not easy.

[HTC One Max] misterk267:
Hi all! I'm looking at getting on Verizon with their One Max. I understand that in order to get permanent root or unlocked bootloader you need s-off first with this variant. I also understand that the latest software for the VZW model is build 2.16.605.2 with hboot 2.49. What I'd like to know is, has anybody had any success getting s-off using the method with weaksauce and firewater with this firmware and hboot without already being rooted/unlocked? Or any other method? I'd appreciate your input. Thanks!
[HTC One Max] waco2hot33:
If I understand you correctly you need those 2 methods to get rooted / unlocked if your on build 2.16 hoot 2.49 ..I mean theres other Ways if you didn't take the ota or if your phone came with a older build but for latest Verizon build that's the only way I know of ..

Okay, thanks. I was having trouble finding info about the 2.16 build and just wanted to make sure that method worked. My phone gets here soon and I want to root it right away.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haemon:
So a local carrier here in Alaska decided to buy International phones for the purpose of reselling them. It looks like they go through a 3rd party to develop the firmwares and pump them out, a company called UltiMobile from Orlando Florida. I'd like to get this phone up and running, and the ultimate goal is to get it to work on AT&T's network. So here is what I've gather about this phone.

1.) Does NOT boot into an existing ROM, stuck at the Samsung screen.

2.) Able to boot into download mode just fine.

3.) ODIN does recognize it when plugging it in.

4.) Did not like trying to take a firmware via ODIN, failed with an error to read specific files (Line 1993)

5.) Firmware for this phone/carrier is not readily available if at all.

android4.0.4

baseband i9300uble6

Kernal 3.0.15-679767-user

SMP PREEMPT WED JUN 6 15:43:48 kst

ULTIMOBILE-SGS3-4.0.4-GCI-071112-3.0

The above information was taken from another post by an XDA member "AcerSnowman" who posted his phone that is also from this same carrier. Note the GCI in the name along with Ultimobile. I would assume that this information is close to the same, so hopefully it will help to find the proper firmware. At this point I'd imagine the best route is to find the stock firmware or a stock firmware that will work on this phone currently enough to get it up and running. Then I should be able to root it, install CWM/TWRP and worry about custom ROM and radio firmware? Does this sound correct?

Any assistance with this very specific phone would be worlds of help, thanks guys.

Recently got a Moto G off local classifieds, an XT1034 16gb running stock. Stuck in a WIND SIM card and it would show that it was connected to the network, data and all. However, I cannot send/receive texts or calls, and the data only works intermittently, even though it says it's connected to the network with full bars and 3G/H+. I have tried flashing full stock, flashing CM11, flashing retail-CA kernels and radios, event ried a couple other SIMs I had working in other phones...nothing so far has worked. The funny thing is, when I had a Rogers SIM in the phone (with just a texting plan), it worked just fine. Any idea what might be wrong and how to fix it?

Hi i need to find a kernal with usb debugging and adb setting in developer settings automatically ticked because my phone screen is completely broken and im using a program that requires the two settings to be on. Please help if you can thank you!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] serio22:
I don't think a kernel can enable those, only the user can.. You can probably flash a ROM that has them enabled or a script
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] brokenchains:
I also broke my screen and was looking for this exact thing. It's Android Control and I need adb enabled. I tried various ways I found while searching to try to enable adb through TWRP and an adb shell on my PC, but it wouldn't work ( kept getting a "~ # ?[6n" prompt and "not found" when entering "su" ).

Then I found this kernel kitchen. In that thread the dev says you can make the ramdisk insecure and make adb mode persistent. Anybody able to help me out?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ShinySide:
What version? Mdl mk2 or nb4? Probably already insecure boot.img unless you're running stock tho

Debugging in dev options would be a different story tho. I might be able to figure out how to enable it thru command line tho

And now that I think about it, I don't even know what would work since you're dual booting.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] brokenchains:
I figured out how to get adb shell working, but I had to switch TWRP out for CWM non-touch. That let me use adb correctly through recovery and I found a way to enable adb in the ROM that way by pulling settings.db and editing the "adb_enabled" setting there. Now I'm just caught because I can't see the screen to authorize my PC to use adb... I tried to manually put the adb key from my PC's file into the adb_keys file on the phone but that didn't work and I'm pretty sure I did it right. That process is described here for anyone curious.

You need S Off then you can flash that Rom

Install custom Rom then use firewater S Off

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Flashing the ROM is flashing the Operating System. Once you've flashed TWRP recovery and sideloaded the ROM, you will have Android OS with Sense (a Sense ROM is required for S-OFF).

TWRP is the custom recovery where you can install the OS by flashing the ROM

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerimiahbaldwin:
I've had my Verizon Galaxy Note 2 for nearly 2 years and have not rooted. Several days ago I received the OTA update 4.4.2. Today, I wanted to root but I'm afraid I screwed up the boot loader. Presently, when I try to boot the phone I receive "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." Neither Kies nor Kies 3 recognize the device connected via USB. I can boot into odin mode and odin can talk to the device.

History:

I followed the guide found here:

<link blocked: search for "How to Unlock Bootloader and Root Verizon Galaxy Note 2 on VRAMC3!" in google>

However, I overlooked the build number. The guide suggests that the build number should be VRALJB but my build number was VRUFND7 (i.e. KOT49H.I605VRUFND7).

Otherwise, I followed the guide down to step 8 and then received the following results:

<ID:0/006> Added!!

<ID:0/006> Odin v.3 engine (ID:6)..

<ID:0/006> File analysis..

<ID:0/006> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/006> Initialzation..

<ID:0/006> Set PIT file..

<ID:0/006> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!

<ID:0/006> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/006> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/006> boot.img

<ID:0/006> NAND Write Start!!

<ID:0/006> recovery.img

<ID:0/006> tz.img

<ID:0/006> sboot.bin

<ID:0/006> FAIL!

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)

Do I need to flash a bootloader that is compatible with KOT49H.I605VRUFND7. Else what should I do to complete the root process or revert?

Other details:

I've noticed in other attempts that every time Odin tries to write sboot.bin, the process fails. Is that because the boot loader is locked?

Any insights into helping me fix my bricked device are appreciated. I searched for many hours for more information but I'm afraid this is pretty new territory since the OTA came out only a few days ago.
