What Is An AKU

Microsoft creates updated builds of the Windows Mobile operation system called Adaptation Kit Updates (AKU). These releases are rarely intended directly for consumers, and are usually a result of some extra features or fixes required by a particular Windows Mobile device. For example, if an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) decides to add a new kind of external keyboard to a Windows Mobile Pocket PC, then some extra driver code will be required - in that case, Microsoft creates an AKU to drive the hardware.

Developer impact

It is rarely the case that developers need to know which device is running which AKU. The goal is that every device running Windows Mobile 5 runs every application. When a developer takes into account different screen sizes and orientations, either by design or programmatically, then the application should run on all Windows Mobile hardware.

End user impact

The end user of a device doesn't need to know anything about AKU builds. Perhaps a particular model of device will be updated to have new features (for example, push email) but that depends on whether the OEM and the operators decide to implement those features.

This question prompted me to add a thread to the encyclopedia section, but then I noticed that those nifty auto links no longer work.

Now far be it for me to argue with Channel9 but:

So far there have been no AKU releases intended directly for the consumers nor can there be given the current format which requires flashing the whole image.

I also disagree with their assessment of the end user impact.

Not all but most people care if the brand new device they bought can do push mail, is secure or has the newest messenger version.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] warriorsorochilu:
Sorry for my bad English.

Does anybody know how to convert a Sprint One to an internation Htc One? My phone has already been s-off and supercid.

Thanks everyone.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] StormyNight:
Sadly, no. It's not possible since Sprint is CDMA.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] shawndoc:
You can unlock the SIM card slot which will let you use SIMs from international carriers. See the thread in the main Sprint HTC One forum.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] warriorsorochilu:
I've already unlocked. Anyway, thanks.I also have a little problem about Data icon, my Sprint HTC One show GSM instead of H or 3G. The internet speed is quite slow.:crying:
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] StormyNight:
Go to default.xml, and find sku_id (which is somewhere near the bottom) change the value 10 to 42, and you should be getting H/3G icons again.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] resinis:
!!

Ive been through hell with this, this past week.

Sprint m7

You would think once you root, rom, s-off, cid unlock, sim unlock and bake a cherry pi for it the damn thing would work with ATT compatible sim cards.

NOPE. well, sure, you can SOMETIMES trick it to get onto the network, but it doesnt stick, its not fast, and theres no data.

WHAT A PAIN.

I want to sell this now, but Im not even confident it will work on international GSM networks, even though the sim is unlocked (and cid unlocked!)

i dont think ill ever buy a non-international phone again. Well, my one X+ att flavor worked out ok, but there are so few roms for it... oh well...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] StormyNight:
Have you seen this thread?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] resinis:
no i havent. i will try this. thank you
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] StormyNight:
You might have to downgrade to an older version of android though, because when I tried it, it didn't work. I believe I was on viperone at the time of testing.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] resinis:
i am fully vested in bringing this model phone back from whatever hell its been through now. stayed up till 2am last night reverting this thing back to stock after it went through all the OTA updates. I am an HTC one m7-wls master now ;)

i wont be home until tomorrow, but i will be trying the fix in that link. i really hope it works.... i made a crystal clear call yesterday before i lost the network, so i KNOW this phone can talk to the towers near me on H2O plan... i just have to get the stupid software right.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] resinis:
OK, so I am done.

Recap (without getting boring)

I did the sim unlock, and also the "fix". FINALLY got the phone to register on H20. And I do have data too, but its GSM only (very slow). The only way I got any of this to work is be fully 4.1.2 stock.

It is set to WCDMA preferred.

also, even though I did the "fix" it still loses the network after a reboot.

I am so done with this phone. I am updating it fully and throwing it on ebay. F this thing! No more sprint phones for me, thank you.

I have a weird problem. I have been sent some mx2 clone boxes from hong kong. Normally i would install cronic corey brilliant linux xbmc but i have a weird issue.

I install matricom 1.1.5 and then mx linux for 1.1.5 old mtd. The system boots and xbmc works as it should but the leds and power buttons don't work on the remote on all of them?.

I have opened one up and have learned that the boards are rev 1.1, am I right in saying most boards are now 2.1 or 2.2

The rest of the specs are Meson M6, g18 REF & Platform g02 Ref.

I have been trying to connect via putty but i keep getting error connection refused.

Is there anyway someone with little experience can sort this issue to make this compatible as I say it seem to be that the Led when on linux are in reverse. Blue when off and red when on and no power on or off from remote control.

I am at a loss with what to with these.

But firmware is different with JDQ39.20140605

Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated. I notice there is a rom guide in the cronic corey's posts, I am willing to try this. Got to learn sometime and I have a linux machine

m in india n got s4 i9505 from uk but its motherboard got damaged by mistake .. so went to samsung ppl n they said the motherboard will cost 13000 rupees for i9505 model but when they repaired they gave me i9500 :| which i realised after a month :|

so wanted to know if i got into a loss ??

like m planning to complain about them ...

according to me 9505 is better but needed expert opinion like if 9500 is also 4g then no prob
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FPSUsername:
I see here that it is market dependent:

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_i9500_galaxy_s4-5125.php

But I think the i9500 is a 3G version.

The biggest difference is that the i9500 has 2 cpus (not working both at the same time) and a different gpu

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironclad1911:
its rooted ...... it was fine yesterday and it suddenly switched off and since then its off.......it turns on when i connect to charger but it starts rebooting at google logo and i tried to enter bootloader...but it immediately reboots so i am not able to flash any factory image or lock the bootloader.......i cnt take it to LG without locking the bootloader......plz help....i googled it and found stuck power button but i can hear a click sound when i press it.......plz suggest some solution asap!!!!!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitdomo:
1: abuse the power key maybe it will unstick after numerous tries.

2: disassemble your phone, but you will lose your warranty. Check the power key and check it. If the power key still act like it is stucked then you have to buy a new power key and then you have to remove the old and solder the new one or ask someone who will do it for you, or buy a new motherboard.

3: take it to LG. Atleast you should try. you will not lose anything. This is google's phone and not LG's phone. The android, the bootloader and everything belongs to google. If they refuse to repair your phone under warranty they will just tell: oh sorry we cant do that under warranty, but if you pay xxxx amount of money we will. Anyway, none of the LG phone's bootloader can be unlocked like the nexus 5's bootloader, moreover there are LG phones which has unlocked bootloader officaly, so now what? They can't even run the tool which determines do you have root or not, because nexus 5 lacks of that feature like other lg phones to commincate with that tool.

---------- Post added at 03:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:35 PM ----------

One more thing. For nexus devices locked bootloader means that you cant use fastboot, but you still able to flash custom roms kernels etc even if have locked bl. While for other non-nexus devices it means that you cant boot custom kernels therefore you can use custom roms and custom recoveries and custom kernels.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironclad1911:
thanks.....useful information i must say..........i tried method 1........wasnt successful .......2 nd method is risky(im scared XD)......so i think i will take it to LG....
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keplenk:
I have the same problem now :(

Is it confirmed that once you open it, I will lose warranty?

The thing is my bootloader is unlocked so when Google/LG see's it - they will just void the warranty anyway.

It just loops and loops to the bootloader and when I try to even attempt to go to recovery/bootloader etc - it reboots right away.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bitdomo:
If your phone from google then rma it. Dont worry about unlocked bl. If your phone not from google then claim your warranty from LG. It depends on your country and/or luck will LG void your warranty or not. You will not lose anything the worst thing that could happen is that you get back your phone in the same state from LG if you decide not to pay for LG if they charge you bace you have unlocked bl.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dexterable:
I am also facing same problem. Did you take it to LG? What happened??
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ironclad1911:
well yes its a hardware issue.......i tried all possible software fixes but none worked then i finally took it to lg service center and they replaced my Nexus 5 plz take it to a service center ASAP!!!

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] wmw301:
Hi.

I have a backup of the B125 stock rom made wuth TWRP 2.6.3.3 .

And have flashed the omni rom 4.4.4, which also made backup with twrp 2.7.1.0.

Can I use twrp 2.7.1.0 to restore the B125 backup to return to stock? And then use it again to return to omni?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] FutureIntelligence:
First you must flash stock recovery.

After that you will be able to install stock ROM.

Like a lot of people in here, we got that problem where our phone stucks in bootloader and there is no way to fix it..So in this post if someone has fixed that issue then it would be awesome to post how he did it..As far as i know, the only way is to give the phone to HTC..**(phones that were not even rooted got that kind of issue..)

Thanks in advance..
[Samsung Galaxy Star] Hnk1:
As stated before I am working on this device and I need testers.

You will need to flash the zip via latest cmw and report back.

The file would be around 200-230 Mb max for the complete rom.

Quote/Mention me if you are interested.

NO ETA, I might finish it by tomorrow or might take two weeks. It just depends on if I have time!

Remember I have a LIFE apart from xda so don't PM me or ask for ETA.

The time wasted in checking useless PM/Quotes could be used in development and thus saving alot of time.

DO IT ON YOUR OWN RISK

I would not be responsible for world war 3, pregnant girlfriend,UFO, dead phone so DON'T BLAME ME if you don't know what you are doing!

Instructions if you want to flash the zip

-Rooted phone with CWM latest for your device

-STOCK ROM

-clean dalvik/cache/ factory reset

-flash update.zip

-clean dalvik/cache/factory reset

I am uploading the file on my dev-host!

Once done, i would share the link with you!

It is basically deodex stock rom with some modifications.

Tweaks havenot been done, neither i have tried to change anything in build.pro!

If confirmed, this is working, I would start with next step..

Basically I am going to go systematically step by step, it might take a bit of time.

My plans for rom are simple

FAST, MINIMAL, BATTERY OPTIMIZATION, SMOOTH

Other Custom tweaks would be solely on the user
[Samsung Galaxy Star] Pikachu:
me and my friend both tested this rom

i flashed last night and got some errors and installation got aborted

did you gave us other device rom

i noticed it in updater script :silly:
[Samsung Galaxy Star] Hnk1:
The ROM and everything is right, I accidentally copied the wrong updater script in Meta-inf as I was looking into someone's ROM as well so they got mixed.

There's a safety feature added in updater script and thus, flashing would be aborted if the device does not match.

I am working on it and I'd hopefully give you good news soon.

I have borrowed the device as well so I'll test it myself before I release the ROM
[Samsung Galaxy Star] Pikachu:
Best of luck bro

anyways can you do something for battery optimisation coz it drains a lot due to radio or even in standby makes one insane..

if you can then please add some features for the same

- I have given back the device which I borrowed from my mate so nothing till I get it back. I am not sure when I can borrow again!

-I have managed to get some progress but I am still ending up in a bootloop. I need to check logs once I have the device again. He may or he may not give me the device again so let's see.

-there's no ETA. I have honestly lost the heart that over two days of very little sleep and hardwork has yielded nothing productive as I hoped.

-I shared the ROM with two testers but I managed to test myself and found problems with updater script which have been fixed but still bootloop.

- I am extremely busy and I need to look into schedule well ahead to give time to a particular project so I can't tell you what will happen to this project in future.

- I only develop/contribute to XDA as a hobby and I'm a doctor by profession so I hope you understand how less time I have for myself.

- please understand I am a human and I have a life and I'm not paid to work at XDA so its my choice how I progress with this!

I hope you can all understand and kindly DON'T pm me asking about this or anything at all.

However if you have anything productive/suggestions apart from this ROM, you are welcome!

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General] newbiePDA:
Hi everybody,

I had a problem with my Qtek 2020i xdaIIi, the amber led light just wont turn off, even when unplugged to the charger, even it's not in charging mode, the battery discharge very quickly, only one night! (I use 2400 mAh battery!).

If I do a soft reset and don't turn off the PDA, the amber led is not turned on, so looks like normal, but if I turn off and turn on again, the ambed led will turn on in 4s approximately.

I have this problem since the day I unplugged my 2020i from USB cable on PC (usb mode with CARD EXPORT) without desactivate usb connection on PC side.

I've tried everything but still not working, flash rom, activesync & usb mode, unscrew and open the pda completely...

Can anyone help?

Hey Guys :)

So my friend gave me a Note 2 with 4.1.1 that's stuck in safe mode.

So i tried installing TWRP to install a KitKat rom, but i forgot to format data "stupid me :\"

anyways at first it booted till the part where it's "optimizing apps"

after it got to "finishing boot" it rebooted and, well, it's stuck in a bootloop.

so i tried getting into recovery by pressing the 3 buttons, it just continues with booting into the bootloop.

then i tried getting in download mode, it gets to the warning screen, but it refuses to continue when i press the volume up button :|

any help?? thank you :D
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dabenaute:

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobfbaby:
if you could get the phone to be recognized by adb then you could use:

adb reboot download​

to get to download mode.

Just a reminder:

TWRP :Vol Up + Home + Power (Release Power Button when samsung logo appears, keep holidn Vol Up + Home untill you see TWRP )

Download Mode: Vol Down + Home + Power, then press up when warning appears.

Hope this helps.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taha_elfeituri:
tried that, with no success :(

that was how i used to get the phone in download/recovery back when it was in safe mode.

but now, adb can recognize the phone, but it's "unauthorized" and stuck in a bootloop so i'm screwed :\

Anyways i think i should just take it to a repair shop :D but thanks so much for ur help guys ^^

Hi all.

My android phone keeps opening apps by itself, like someone its touching the screen.

Thanks for your time.

Much appreciated. :)
[G2 General] Zalmoxis12:
There's this terrible fashion going around in the UK of official apps from certain companies not working on rooted devices.

Then here comes ioroot which gracefully roots your device and guess what, does it in such a way that it isn't detected by any app, right out of the box.

I installed CM11 and unfortunately, CM11 does it wrong. I can't run any of the apps now, and some of them are quite important. For example, the Three network has an app called Three inTouch which lets you make calls over Wi-Fi (but through your normal number) in places where there is no mobile reception. It's kind of like your own personal femtocel. The app doesn't work with root.

Tried all the ways out there to hide root, it would seem none work on CM11.

This was just a heads-up. If hiding root is important for you, go with stock and ioroot and NOT CM11.
[G2 General] khaytsus:
Voted #1 thread for 100% nonsense.

Seriously, this is utter complete nonsense. The root detection is done on the STOCK ROM. There's no "root detection" happening when CM11 is installed. Period.
