Status 0 is where there is a problem with your update- binary. Replace the one you had with one from a different 4.4.2 ROM that you know works.

By the way, do you mind uploading the original ota as well as yours? ;) let's see if we can get Silent OS on other devices too :D

Upload of new OS

Thank you for the quick reply!

Again, I am very new to all of this and reading a vast amount of forums to try and understand all of this being a non-developer.

Can I assume that I should upload the files to something like spideroak or mega.nz and post the link here?

Appericate the assistance.
[Android General] Qiangong2:
Sure, mega or spideroak will work fine :)
[Android General] new2016:
Upload of OS

Sorry for the late reply. I have just started back at university and have two major assignments to finish by the end of the week.

I'll upload the files either today or tomorrow and post a link on here.

Again, thank you for help.

***for other new people to flashing etc***

As an update, got through process of using flashboot and sideload for the fist time which I am thinking of uploading a YouTube video on this which may explain a few things which has taken me a long time figure out by myself - or it could be just me???

I did get to a stage where I was stuck on the HTC logo and was still able to get into the recovery boot screen etc. I found out that I had at somestage while trying clockwork mod or cynogen, had deleted / formatted the system (sorry for the laymans terms). Anyway, managed to install an old stable cynogen mod rom on to the mobile which was fun for awhile until I wanted to update and the path / directories for the update weren't valid, giving me a status 6 error.

I thought it was a bit strange as the updater script was the same.

So I went back and reformatted the mobile through cynogen, wiping the cache / data etc and then used the ADB sideload to install the latest 2016 nightly cynogen mod which works. I will also say that it is a very good and basic version without all the Google rubbish.

The link for Silent Circle Source Code

Just go to the support.blackphone.ch website and search for "Where is Blackphone's source code"

This will take you to a github silent circle page

OTA Link Update

Sorry again for the late reply. Trying to finish off the assignments for university this weekend.

Re: Link (https) ota-update.blackphone.ch/blackphone-4.4.2-1449161691.zip

I received confirmation from Silent Circle that this is the latest - (I have an account with them)

Hoping the Mega file link works - let me know.

Blackphone OTA 4.4.2-1449161691.zip

Have a great weekend.

Mega link does not work as it asks for a decryption key.

i have a g2 mini and i wanna try this out so i just do a normal port ? right ? and which base i can use ,, u'd suggest the cm11 ??
[Android General] Qiangong2:
Yes, it would be the best base. Blackphone may have put other proprietary feautures within PrivatOS that are incompatible with other phones (like in the kernel). Don't get your hopes up :) good luck though

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paing97:
I backed up my note 3 on july 11 via kies 3. Yesterday my phone was water damaged and not able to turn on anymore. I want to know if i can restore my note 3 back up files to galaxy s5 via kies 3. If so can it restore all the app data like Whatsapp and instagmessage? I backed up all the app data and it's worth like 2GB. Pls answer me. Ty!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] soumen.sam:
Humm bad thing happened. I’ve never faced anything like this before and never tried to anything such. I love my phone and love its data so always keep it safe side.

Kies and Kies 3 are very confusing, I don’t know if Kies 3 supports S5 but I think S5 doesn’t support Kies 3, its only for note 2 and 3.

But if Kies 3 supports S5 and if you have taken the note 3 backup by Kies then it would be easy. From C:\Users\USER_NAME\Documents\samsung\Kies3\backup\SM-N900 copy the folder with the date name paste it on the S5 folder. If you connected two phone by Kies 3 there should be two folder by their model name. Like SM-N900 = Note 3. Then connect the S5 and see what appears in restore list. Hopefully this would work fine.

But even if it supports there is concerns, as when I was trying to transfer data from my old galaxy phone to new Note 3 by Kies, it rejected few data like call logs etc.

Now, If Kies 3 doesn’t works with S5, then you can try this thing. Install Kies 2 for S5, take a backup once of the S5 and see the backup folder there you will see the folder structure (if its different from note 3 folder structure). For note 3 there will be folder like SM-N900_20140412111134 and backups files inside its like Contacts.spb, Calllog.scl check all files and their extensions.

If you get the folder structure and if both kies 2 and 3 backup file formats are same then this will work fine. If you don’t understand anything, ask me.

---------- Post added at 12:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 AM ----------

Also in future use automated backups like Avast backup for all, it helped me a lot when changing the phone. Kies couldn’t restore all from my previous galaxy to note 3. Also it takes daily backups. Look for a good cloud backup apps.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paing97:
Thank you!

Omg! Thank you very much. Even though i haven't try your method yet, i found all of my recent note 3 back ups in the kies 3 folder. i can see all of my whatsapp msg, media and backups. Other app datas too! I can just move it to my sd card and I can put back to my s5 without restoring it. I hope that will work! :D

:

1. There is no demo/trial.

2. It is actually possible to go an buy it (hint,hint), I have, and I am happy with the small amount of money I spent on it.

3. Microsoft have made all of this, and they deserve all the credit, whether they included it in the rom or not.

And fwiw, I've been using it for a few days now. The reading thing actually gets annoying and I turned it off. If someone sends you a long ass message it reads it out... in far longer time then it'd take to just open and read it anyway.

As far as running program mem usage, It uses the same as 1.5 does.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] d0ug:
Mine appears to be working with the mic on my Jabra BT250V headset. Unless the mic on the wizard itself is just that sensitive? It reads out SMSs that are sent to me though the headset, however received emails are not read out at all. I thought that emails were supposed to also be read out? It also announces the caller when you receive a call. According to the setting it should be announcing that though the headset, but it only does it though the speakers on the Wizard for me. The call button on the BT250V works to activate Voice Command, and I am able to say for example “what time is it” and it will say the time back to me though the headset.

The thing that bothers me the most is the incoming call alert. I wished it would go though the BT headset, that way I can privately hear who is calling me. Does anyone else have this same problem?

I did follow the instructions that you provided, but the notifications are not coming through the bluetooth headset.

First I did uncheck the high priority messages only.

Second Check the announce notifications using bluetooth hands free if available.

Third delete and re-pair my headset.

Fourth Check the settings if they are what I wanted, and still I'm hearing from phone and not from headset.

Is there anything else that I might be missing?

I was under the impression that it could not announce the name on a call via bluetooth. I thought it was only notifications, like email or SMS that worked.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] robpet2:
voice over bluetooth

im able to get the voice prompt for incoming call and the number - just that the chick talks so fast(maybe cause im overclocking ) that i can barely understand it... but mine is not always letting me know when i have a email come in
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] d0ug:
At least i'm not the only one with this problem. I would like to also know if incoming call announcing works though your BT headset. I would perfer it to notify me privately whos calling, rather then everone around me know whos calling.

The other problem with it only annoucing from the phone speakers is while im driving. I usually keep the phone in my pocket, so with it being in my pocket, the road noise and radio i would probably never be able to make out what it is saying. That wouldnt be a problem over the BT headset.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] d0ug:
I'm wondering if the speed and pitch of the voice can be controlled via the registry? Im sure its using very simmlar voice technology as whats in the XP and Office screen readers, and i know the pitch and speed of the voice can be changed in those.

If they are simmlar or the same voice APIs as used in XP/Office, then maybe figuring out what registry keys control that on a windows PC, will also control that on a windows mobile device?

Aku 3.2 Rom

Does VC 1.6 work with any of the 3.2 AKU ROMs?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] d0ug:
.

Yay i get to quote myself. The speed of the voice CAN be changed.

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Speech\Voices

Change DefaultTTSRate to 1 through 10 decimal (DWORD). 5 is the default.

All of the speech registry settings on Windows Mobile appear identical to Desktop Windows. I dont see why it shouldn't also be possible to copy the Michael voice DAT file from a desktop and have it work on Windows Mobile. I am going to try that right now.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] d0ug:
Well i tried changing the actual voice by both changing registry settings, and renaming the michelle.dat file and replacing it with micahel.dat.

I am unable to determine much of a difference. on the PC the michael.dat gives a deeper voice. The speakers on the Phone may not be able to reproduce, which is why im not noticing a difference.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] Videonut:
Wow this program sounds awesome, can't wait to save up my pennies for it or maybe find it 1st, you know try before you buy.

Does anyone know if the program has been optimized for headsets. What I mean is the 1.5 version had problems with accuracy over bluetooth because I believe it used 16 bit( or something like that) and the bluetooth of the wizards and Apaches and probably most other phones are 8 bit. I'm sure someone here knows what I mean and can answer.

Small problem with VC 1.5 and 1.6

I noticed that the command "Ringer - Vibrate" or "Ringer - High / Medium / Low" operates the Phone Volume and not the Device Volume.

Anything I can do to get it to work for the Device Volume????

Because it plays with the Phone Voume, when I use the "Ringer - Vibrate" Command, it just reduces the Phone Volume completely. As a result of this I can't get the phone to switch between Ringer and Vibrate or adjust the Device Volume.

I bought VC 1.6 from Handango. When I attempt to install it via ActiveSync, the cab gets loaded to the phone, then I have to choose on the phone where to install.

Even though I appear to have plenty of available memory on the device and even more on the miniSD card, attempting to install to either fails and I am told there is not enough available memory.

Ideas?

Disregard

Moving more files to the card apparently freed up enough room on the device. Then it installed. Apparently needed some extra room to do install.

Now working ok.

What is the difference between the UK and US versions?

Will the US version work for a UK native i.e. the difference between the US and UK versions is nothing to do with the different way words are pronounced between the two cultures.
