If I'm right, RAM isn't included in the /system partition, since they're totally different.

And, if I'm right again, /system got a whole ammount of hidden folders and files, so they're here, eating your space, but you don't see them. They're hidden obviously for safety :good:

Been searching for a little while (or maybe I'm just blind), but I'm running the latest CM11 M8 so there isn't any advanced options.

Anyone know an app that can adjust the colors of the screen, similar to in preview CM versions?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
I'm wondering what these "gamma controls" commits are referring to as well. I just don't get how a user is to manipulate them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Leraeniesh:
If you ever handle a device with a really good display, you'll find the S3 to be rather lacking in accuracy (especially in whites) and tough on the eyes.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Before this week, I was using the "cold" display temperature setting in SlimKat but that's gone in favor of gamma controls. I don't really understand how to enable it though. I agree, the S3 display is aight but I haven't had the misfortune of looking at a better display yet .

Hi

I have some questionable images on my Nexus 7 2013 saved from the internet that I'd rather prefer not to be found by parents or friends. I need to put a protection on them like a password and, most important, I can't let the default Gallery app to view them. How can I do this?

So about a month ago I managed to acquire a Dell Axim X50 low at a garage sale. It is in great running shape and has Windows Mobile 2003 SE on it. I like having little electronics to take to work with me (I am not able to have anything more than a smart phone).

I have been doing a few internet searches, and I cannot seem to find any links anywhere to download the upgrade to Windows Mobile 5. Is there anywhere that anyone knows of where I would be able to acquire it online? I have searched Dell's support website and cannot find any downloads for it anywhere, and support for it has long been dropped. Thanks!

Have you tried this?

http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/DriverDetails?driverId=X4F0F

It's an update to WinMo 5.0 but it might work.

Depends whether the installer bothers to look at what's on the device first.

The 33 MB size of the package looks like its a complete WinMo 5.0 ROM

Good Luck!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Validfoxhound:
I apologize in advance for positing here about this but i am unbelievably frustrated, and there is a forum rule where I must post 10 times before i post in the developer threads. I decided instead of flooding the forum with useless posts that I would post what I need here. I have had 19.6.3 for quite some time and decided to downgrade to 19.5.3 to root again and attempt to keep the root for 19.6.3. Which is what i'm told is necessary. I'm trying to use the method on the bottom androdmods keep root 19.6.3. If you can't find it using that in google will quickly get you to it ( I can't post links, again I'm "new"). Basically I'm using Jcase's(Thank you) Pie tool. Now i have been using his methods for awhile now but this one which seems to be the easiest is giving me the most trouble. After using the Pie tool i have achieved root. However, I cannot update SuperSu's binarys to fully install it and use survival mode, or even access the app at all. I get this error "installation failed! Please reboot and try again". Of course that doesn't work. Rootchecker however says that I have root access. So I'm trying to use MotoWpNoMo. However, every time i use this it restarts the phone and is breaking the Pie Tool's root because SuperSu never worked anyway so it's not fully installing. What am i doing wrong? What am I missing? You have no idea how grateful I would be for information that could fix my issues.
[General Questions and Answers] jtgr94:
Hey guys, I have a simple question to ask.

In regards to CyanogenMod FOTA, I'm just wondering, if I update my firmware via the CM updates available on my device(image below), will my phone factory reset, or delete apps or app data?

And if it doesn't, will the firmware upgrade consume more space on on my device than what it would if I flash the ROM manually?

Thanks a lot!

(Also, if this thread is in an incorrect forum, please, move it to its appropriate area. I personally have not been able to find any info on this particular subject, or a CM related area.)

I'm currently running CM11 on my hercules (T989D Galaxy S2) with KitKat 4.4.4.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moppusan:
Is there any etiquette I should follow with ROM feature requests? Is this frowned upon at all, or does it vary by ROM maker? :angel:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcnbama:
No. There is no real way to ask. Most developers do this because they enjoy it. User feedback is valuable. Suggestions are valuable. The real question is what NOT to do. 1. Don't expect every suggestion or recommendation you ask for to be incorporated into the next version or even incorporated at all. The developers may either not find it valuable or there may be other restrictions that prevent your suggestions from being incorporated.

2. Never ask for ETA. The majority of developers here on XDA do other things for a living and this is just either a hobby or for their own use.

3. Don't demand anything or be insulting. Just because your suggestions or ideas don't make it into a rom, don't take it personally. Be nice and professional. Don't be upset if someone like Cloudyfa doesn't respond via PM. Recognized developers like Cloudyfa, NRGZ28, Dorimanx, Dr87, Xdabbeb, Rovo89 and etc have tons of volume of PMs. Some of them even turn off PMs just because of the volume of posts coming through their boxes.

So that's it. Remember the Golden Rule. Enjoy and good luck! :thumbup:
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moppusan:
Cool, thanks for the feedback. :good: I'm assuming it would be better to post in the ROM thread instead of PMing the author? I use Mahdi ROM and I wouldn't even know to PM Dr87 or Mahdi786. Heck, I donated to Dr87 not knowing that Mahdi786 made the ROM. Maybe Dr87 keeps updating it. I've noticed he can program just about anything.

Hello,

I have an LG Mach. Today it has started running really slow and now it will not even let me use it. When powered on about every 3 - 6 seconds it locks up then after it unlocks it has closed all programs and it is back at the home screen with no data or wifi connection. Just like it just turned on.

I have tried soft reset and safe mode but it still does the lock up.

I tried to get the photos and contacts from usb but the constant resetting turns off the usb also.

Can anyone thing of a way that I can get the photos and contacts off the device before a do a hard reset?

[General Questions and Answers] Denots:
Let me start this by saying Its been awhile since i rooted or did anything on my phone. When i bought my S4 i came here and followed instructions to root it, i dont remember what they were but I do remember the chinese program vroot and changing whatever it was to MJ7. Then I installed or flashed (sorry dont know the lingo) hyperdrive 15.

A few days ago i noticed there was an update for hyperdrive to v17, found "Hyperdrive+RLS17.1+KK+S4+Final.zip" and downloaded it. Rebooted safestrap into recovery then messed up the order of installing from zip, data wipe/factory reset and clearing cache. It took a few tries but it finally booted up and i had to enter email again to activate the phone so i thought i was good to go.

I checked the "about phone" and it seems to me im on the same hyperdrive15.I keep running into a problem installing safestrap. It says im not rooted so I started going though the same walkthrough I think i did before. VRoot_1.7.0.3882_Setup was having trouble seeing my phone then never really completed, (Im guessing but it is in chinese) Still no root.

Heres a couple screenshot since i dont really know where exactly I am. What do i need to do to get back to rooted?

changed to ART this morning, haven't had any problems yet.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Howie Dub:
Switched over to ART and Jishnu's modded camera app won't work with it, so I switched back. Didn't notice any difference in battery life or speed while on ART.
[T-Mobile LG G2] mannequin:
ART is just a placebo as of now, there are no real benefits in using it.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Sfkn2:
Can you explain why you think this is? I read a few articles on Android Authority and Android Police, both of the sites confirmed that ART runs quicker and is more efficient on the battery than DALVIK.
[T-Mobile LG G2] spec4:
I switched back to Dalvik after I noticed a few problems with certain apps. Even had a little problems with the XDA app. ART isn't optimized for all apps yet. I wouldn't recommend using ART yet.
[T-Mobile LG G2] cvsolidx17:
Been using it for the past few days. The first boot with ART gave me mediocre battery results but I'm guessing everything had to settle because since that boot I've been able to observe a noticeable difference in longevity. As far as performance goes, I can't tell the difference between ART and Dalvik.

[HTC Droid DNA] welbinator:
So, awhile back I wanted to stay rooted and take the latest update, so I side loaded a rooted, stock ROM. It was completely stock, no features or anything, and it was rooted.

now, my phones trying to make me install the KitKat update. Obviously, I can't do that since my phone is rooted it will bork it.

Is there a stock kit kat ROM I could sideload? Also, is it a problem that my phone says **LOCKED**?

I was going to try and completely reset my phone to out of the box stock, and got as far as relocking my phone and realized the rest was a lot of work so I stopped. And now, I can't figure out how to unlock it again. the HTC method doesn't work. I think I did something called exposed last time? Will I need to do that before flashing any Kit Kat ROMs?

If there are no purely stock, rooted KitKat ROMs, what's the most stable rooted KitKat ROM available?

I would try going to sprint.com and login. Then click on manage this device and click on change on service add ons in drop down menus. On that next page there should be choice to enable wifi calling. If it is not there I would call sprint to push this so it shows up there.

Edit: Even after the icon for wifi calling was in my apps it would not enable for awhile. After about another 30 minutes when I clicked on it it opened and asked to register my wifi location and then was active. You need to register each new wifi connection to enable wifi calling there. However once it is learned you do not have to keep doing that.

The device is set up in there sections, the radio rom, the ce rom and the ext rom. Carriier information or apps are found in the ext rom. The process is called cooking or backing.

If you would like you x branded phone to look and feel like a y branded phone then you need to exchange the content of the ext rom.

Some settings can be changed on the system , sms number, voice mail others are loaded through the ext rom (splash screens, e-mail setup programs for carrier y).

Best thing is wiki, read the info in the kitchen, understand the ext rom, cook it and most of all have fun.

Hello everyone.

My phone: Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3

Today I decided to install CM11 on my phone. When I try to install recovery with Odin it was succesfully but when the phone restarts "set warranty bit recovery "

I researched this problem on the internet, someone writed If I reinstall the original ROM (from sammobile.com) the problem would be solved.

But it was worse. Because now the phone doesnt turn on. recovery mode and downloading mode doesnt working.

How can I recover the phone please help me. If you tell us step by step..
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] starmaster10:
Hi..what model is your mega and which recovery did you use and were did you get the recovery from as the yellow warranty means that knox security is on you phone and any custom recoveries or custon roms will show this..but first have to find what model your phone is and which recovery was used. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] harbiaslan:
My phone model is Galaxy Mega 6.3 GT-I9200.. I installed TWRP..

in addition, the screen remains black, boot animation does not even come
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Ntech02:
samething happened to me, but its not broken, something just happens to where you cant see the boot logo picture anymore but the backlight still comes on.

try this.

when turning on your phone go through the steps to get to download mode

then plug it into your computer you should hear it connect.

if not you dont hear the connection then either your computer volume isnt up or you

didnt follow all of the steps to enter download mode correctly.

once youve gotten to download mode flash PHILZ CWM recovery for the i9200

then reboot

when turning on your phone go through the steps to get to recovery, the phone will stay on a black screen until you reach recovery.

wipe data & factory reset.

you should be fine afterwards. although you'll still have a black screen on boot up. just install a custom/stock rom

hope this helped
