[LG Optimus G Pro] Perry2547:
If only it were just simply the root process.

Every time I'm in recovery, if I happen to forget to flash superuser zip, root is temporarily lost until I can get back into recovery and flash it. Every single time.

And each and every change I make any little change with this phone itresults in problems.

For example, if I were to change out a rom, then something like the phone won't get LTE signal and remains on HSPA. Then with much much effort and energy expenditure and TIME, I can set the phone preference to LTE in network settings. It will stick for a while but every so often, several times through out the day, I have to reset the LTE.

Then there's the gps problem. I had this with the Note 2 as well. I have to go through this ridiculous process to get the gps to just freakin' work.

Then there's google maps. Now I know that google maps is not a problem that LG created....but its in there with the whole lovely androidian experience. I'm driving through Boston daily and the map reroutes even when I haven't gotten off course.

In recovery, I can't get the external SD card to mount. This is a problem as I like to store zips on there.

The storage of my internal shows that I have 3 gb left. Something mysterious happened to the remaining free 20 gb.

The battery is laughable. I don't even know where to begin.

And what's up with all the new terminology? KDZ and tot files?? Really?

But the real problem for me is that I really do like what I believe Android can be. Its just that we need Android on some quality hardware such as the kind Nokia puts out.

And the operating system has got to be slimmed down so that there aren't a hundred different processes going on in the background draining the battery life.

What you may not know is that for several years, LG, HTC, and Samsung were putting out such junk that they kept the customer service calls centers busy. And now we're just supposed to forget about the past?

Android's next release should have a name that is honest about the experience; Android 5.0 Half BAKED. Because that is what Android/Google is all about. Never putting out something they can be proud of.

When is voice recognition finally going to work the way it is supposed to?? The year is 2014 for the love of all things holy!!
[LG Optimus G Pro] dylanraga:
Tough luck, eh? Luckily I'm one of the (seemingly) few that has absolutely none of these problems, with a battery life avg of just above 15 hours with quite a bit of on-screen time.

Unfortunately, I cracked the screen. Heh.

Main thread: OpenPDroid patches for CyanogenMod 11

WARNING: OpenPDroid is not compatible with ART for now. disable ART before flashing. enabling ART will cause the device to fail to boot. if you enabled ART and are unable to boot, flash official CyanogenMod temporarily to be able to fix (will cause privacy leaks). or if you have ADB access in android or recovery, you can disable ART by using setprop or editing a file.

these are i9100 builds of CyanogenMod 11 patched with OpenPDroid. find them here.

update: releases will now be distributed as overlays to the official CyanogenMod snapshots. first flash the official "M" snapshot corresponding to the OpenPDroid overlay you want to flash, then flash the overlay.

update: i have published an OpenPDroid overlay for the i9100 build of CM 10.1.3 here (made with old Auto-Patcher).

update: device-specific builds are being phased out in favor of the generic overlays. please refer to this post.

note: OpenPDroid does not affect the recovery nor the kernel, you can use whatever you want.

CM11-M6 broke OpenPDroid patches, so i forked OpenPDroid to restore compatibility, fix several bugs and clean up the code. sources are here.

rom is uploading now, please wait a bit...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] george_shudi:
Features and screenshots mate :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
lol :)

google openpdroid and pdroid
[Galaxy S II Android Development] danielk68:
Some screenshots and battery life will be welcome.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Troubadour666:
Thanks, will try soon .
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
sorry! i just found out that Dropbox suspended my public links due to too much traffic, i didn't know this could happen. i'll arrange an alternative asap.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
this is just nightly CM11 with openpdroid! screenshots and battery are exactly like CM's.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] george_shudi:
mate your roms are not working ,, even ur links are not working anymore.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
lol did you even read my previous to last post?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] george_shudi:
yes i did .. i have downloaded ur roms since today morning and i've flashed them but none of them are working.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
ok thanks. i only posted one rom for the i9100. are you sure you didnt flash one of the nexus 5 images? they have hammerhead on the filename.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] george_shudi:
no hammerhead won't accept to flash ... i've flashed the one one with the date 16/7/2014 and done flashing then reboot but nothing happened just black screen.. i'm using Biftor slim rom now ... i just want to report ur rom to u.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
ok thank you. i dont have an i9100 so i can't test. that's why this rom is not in ALPHA but TESTING stage. i pulled the blobs from a non-local friend's phone over VPN and built. but i am running the hammerhead version and it works just fine (and so does openpdroid). i don't know why it may not be working. maybe that CM's nightly is bad. maybe there's something bad with my building (i strongly suppose nothing's wrong with openpdroid). maybe you didn't wipe or the download was busted. (there is *no* need to wipe coming from CM11.) if someone else confirms i will sync and rebuild and maybe build without patching to see if the output works. thank you!

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
new build is up!!!

this time i reproduced the official M8 snapshot, so it should be more stable. enjoy!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chuangdi:
the package is bad.:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
crap!!! can you please describe in more detail?

i don't have an i9100, so i havent tested this build.

EDIT: i had a friend with an i9100 remotely connect to to my VPN, then had him enable root adb over net, then i picked the blobs from his phone with the standard script. there were no errors reported. maybe something went wrong???

2ND EDIT:

i think i know what can have gone wrong. he's running CM but infected's CM10.2 modded build. maybe i need to pick the blobs from someone running standard CM11.

does anybody running "stock" CM11 want to help? i'd need brief remote adb access. i think root is required to pick the blobs, but not sure.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chuangdi:
in computer open this package show "error in packed file".....
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
you say that the ".zip" file is corrupted?? hmmm... interesting

i just verified the integrity of the zip files here and they are ok. could it be a problem with the file hosting then?

the MD5s of my files are:

$ md5sum *

could you please check if the MD5 of your file is different?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
dont check anything. YES ITS THE DAMNED FILE HOSTING!!!

the file host says my file is:

cm-11-20140727-SNAPSHOT-M8-lanchon-i9100-openpdroid.zip

download information

size: 199.1MB

md5: 6cc06c1069b77130e711cbc312ee1f25

but size is 203.1MB and MD5 is different:

a7d56c709b5e6b5ad26ae7786f8985de cm-11-20140727-M8-lanchon-i9100-openpdroid.zip

crap! i need to fin another hosting :(

thanks and sorry!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
issue solved. i moved away from the problematic hosting. download is ready now. sorry for the trouble, and thanks!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chuangdi:
although you do your best ,but i after install this package ,my phone is black screen after boot,i use dorimanx kernel,dual boot,another is carbon.carbon is first rom ,run normal,but second rom can't boot.i like openpdroid and find rom for it with cm11,hope you find reason,i will support you go on .

thanks.:good:
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
thank you. i'm sorry, there's nothing wrong with openpdroid, i must have incorrect proprietary blobs for the i9100. OPD works fine on my nexus 5. if you will, please read the update to the first post of this thread and decide if you can and want to help. thanks!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chuangdi:
how to do ,i install cm11 in second rom for dorimanx kernel ,isn't ok?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
that is not official CM-11 but i guess it could work. i think none of the blobs come from the kernel itself. if you want we can try it, install CM-11 M8 from here, i'll PM you my contact info.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chuangdi:
i got it install sucess,then?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
connect to the internet

enable developer options

there, enable root for ADB and apps

and enable ADB debugging

i sent you a PM with contact info, please contact me over some instant messaging, thanks!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] chuangdi:
I arrive home now ,contact info? no PM
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
thanks for trying friend! unfortunately the setup was unsuccessful. if somebody else can help, please message me, thank you!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
alpha tester?

i had problems with proprietary blob extraction and did a dud build. now i've built against the blob repos that official maintainers use (or so it seems). i don't want to publicly uplodad untested builds again (i don't have an i9100). is anybody willing to give this a try? please PM me then.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Conny84:
Great to see pdroid again! Hang in there and hopefully you'll find some people willing to test your rom!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
files are up for public testing.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
CM11 M9 snapshot is now available, enjoy!

NOTE: this is a TESTING release, i don't have an i9100 so i cannot test it myself. please try it and report.

EDIT: this release has now been tested to work. NOTE: someone reported ART causing a boot loop. to be on the safe side, do not enable ART unless you are able to solve the boot loop.

you do not need the kernel or recovery, use whichever you want!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
thank you very much for your offer! unfortunately i'm in argentina, where mail like that would disappear before reaching its destination. it's a shame.

my brother lives in miami and he could have it brought here when somebody comes, but it could take a month, maybe even two. i could only accept your phone if it has a cracked screen or some other disabling defect. but i appreciate the offer immensely!!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nickthegr8:
np bro... we're sad to what's happening in ur country .. hope things turn out in a better way... i can still test though if u want a tester .. just let me know here difference in time is 10.14 pm now ..
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
thank you!

this my local time.

you are welcome to test if openpdroid is useful to you! or you could also try this out :)

update: releases will now be distributed as overlays to the official CyanogenMod snapshots. first flash the official "M" snapshot corresponding to the OpenPDroid overlay you want to flash, then flash the overlay. full rom releases are unsupported as of now.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
i think i've solved the maintenance issues by releasing OPD as a small overlay to official CM. so hopefully i wont need a lot more testing for this.

but i've started another more interesting project to speed up CM on the i9100 here and here. unfortunately it requires a custom kernel and recovery. the project is a success on the speed front and some people are having no issues, but others have wifi outages and other weirdness. it's getting hard to keep it up without a test device.

in case you are still interested in sending me your S2, could you tell me its status? has it got a cracked screen, lost IMEI or other big defect? if not, how/when would i return it to you?

and where are you btw? im in argentina but i can provide an address in the states of someone that can bring it to me.

thank you!
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Nickthegr8:
Hi,

Yes no problem but let me check the shipping cost (will u bear some if thats a bit expensive?), the phone is working fine no cracked screen or anything else but the battery needs replacement as it lasts 4-5 hrs max due to long non usage ... I was using it just now before i switched to my one +

Edit: i work in riyadh saudi arabia

Edit 2: u can keep it bro ..that's the whole point of why i offered it in the first place.. I know it will be in safe hands ... Caus i luv my s2 alot..it has lots of memories :) i'll check tomorrow and inform u of the cost

Edit 3: which state in US?? And in venzuela also so that i check at the same time
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Lanchon:
thank you a lot really!! i think if the phone works ok you should sell it instead. but if you rather send it to me:

1) of course i'll gladly bare the full cost of shipping via a paypal transfer.

2) you should ship to my brother's in Miami Beach, FL, 33139, USA and a friend of his will bring it to argentina.

3) most shipments to argentina get lost, no dont bother finding out.

a friend of him is coming to argentina in August SEPTEMBER 5, so he can bring it then. otherwise, someone else will come in a couple more weeks.

thanks!!!

EDIT: i'll PM you his full address

EDIT: sorry!!! his friend is coming from the US in september 5! :)

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marknderm:
I have rooted my note 3 N900A with towelroot and installed safestrap v3.75 .

Everything seems to have installed correctly, when I check to see if I have root with root checker pro, it says I have root and that I have busybox installed as well.

When I go into safestraps/recovery and do a backup of my stock slot. Everything works for the backup. But then when I try to install a rom in any one of the slots it goes through the whole process just fine until the very end when it says in red fail.

It does the fail with every rom that I try to install. And if I try to do a restore in any slot with the backup that I made in the recovery it will fail as well.

So this just leaves me with having to use the stock slot with the original stock phone software.

Also when I try to install titanium backup on my phone that is saying it's rooted, The app won't work because it says that I don't have root. There was another app that would not work when I tried to instead it too because life the same reason. It said that I don't have root as well.

After trying to look for a solution to this, I found that there is an app that I could try to fix what has happened, called

SELinux Mode Changer

After I installed that app and tried to use it. The app made it look like it was working but really it was not doing anything. When I went into the phone info in settings, it still said that selinux was still enforcing.

Does anyone know if there is a solution to this? I would really like to be able to install a new rom on one of the other slots, heck ide settle for being able to put my stock backup on one of the other slots besides the stock slot.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Happylice:
I ran into a similar situation.. After wiping everything and then manually updating my stock to Kit Kat (MLG) I was then able to load custom roms in available slots. I used safestrap version 3.72 along with busy box. Also be sure to format the slot and wipe the cache and dalvik after installation.

The only ROM I am unable to install is Dynamic Kat xtreme. After loading that guy, the flash just fails.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marknderm:
UPDATE: I for unknown reasons to me, was able to successfully install one of my restore files to slot 1. Then after it reboots the phone acts as if it is restarting correctly, but ason as it gets past the safestrap logo with recovery/startup. It goes right into the phones recovery, and it keeps saying that it is installing "multiple csc or something.

Can someone help me with this?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Happylice:
After hitting rock bottom with many of the roms, I finally checked out my external sdcard and realized that it was having issues. After using a different card, I was then able to install all roms for testing.

How many times you dropped your phone without case ? What happened ? Did it survived ?

Can nexus get destroyed in single drop ?

Do you suggest other users to use case just to save it from an unfortunate drop ?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vin4yak:
I haven't dropped mine in the 6 months I've owned it. Yes, any phone;s screen for that matter can shatter with a single drop. Depends on the angle at which it fell. If you're clumsy, then I would certainly suggest you to get a case or at least a tempered glass screen protector!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
I'm usually very careful with my phones but for some weird reason I've dropped my Nexus 5 over 10 times. Twice on concrete, once in the shower when I was drunk and texting while shower and a few times on my hardwood floor.

So far I do not have any cracks on the screen. The only damage is 1 slight scuffing on the bottom, lefthand corner and its barely noticeable.

I'VE NEVER USED A CASE. ONLY CLEAR SCREEN PROTECTOR SINCE DAY ONE.

The second time it dropped from 1m+ on a wooden floor and the backcase opened a little bit but there I had nearly no dents ^^
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 350Rocket:
I dropped mine once without the case. About 3 feet onto hard tile. No damage but I felt pretty crappy about it. I usually have my ballistics SG? Case on it. Should be almost drop proof with that on, of course I never drop it with the case on.

Luckily though, on an unrelated matter, the USB port decided to play up and it was the first time I've ever returned a phone. The replacement, well - I've been very careful never to drop that one!
