[Moto G General] Gambler_3:
I went back to stock Rom and while the volume is almost the same as CM M6 but I noticed that the sound "quality" is better on stock Rom, there is just more meat to the sound. With gravity box I have most of the things I look for in a custom Rom so I am really happy with this now. :D

The Moto G is indeed one of the best sounding phones and it seemed like a crime running those crippled custom Roms.
[Moto G General] OldYellowBricks:
Yea from MOST of the reviews Ive read of the moto g all of them praise both the loudness and the quality of the moto g's audio and its really a BIG downer that on custom roms the audio is dumbed down...hmm

Thank you, it was really helpful
[Moto G General] UncannyValley:
i tried this on my moto g running CM13 ... 20 first, gave me a much lower volume than default (11), 17, 15 as well, 14 seems a bit louder, 30 seems to be just like default, 13 as well...

dafuq is going on?

P.S. got it much louder now by increasing RX1, RX2 and RX3 Digital Volume to 90 in the initial mixer section. (because on cm13 these values are not set in the headphone section)
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iAlec:
So I was fooling around trying out OtterX on my fire, and it works fine, but is too slow and lags too much for my taste. Is there any way to revert back from OtterX to Otter so I can install roms built for that?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
These steps should work.

Be sure that Kindle Drivers are installed and working.

Beware that Window 8.1 does not like Kindle Drivers

1. Download a recovery image from http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/blaze

If otterx-twrp-2.7.1.0-recovery is installed suggest flashing openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-otter.img so that it is easier to verify flashing worked.

If you are giong to flash Stock Rom use openrecovery-twrp-2.2.2.1-blaze.img

2. Verify recovery's md5 checksum openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-otter.img = md5: 9544a5bfea7d000e5203912efd2b9766 see https://sites.google.com/site/sdshadowscollection/home/hash-checksums

3. In bootloader change partitions from OtterX back to Amazon

4. Using abd/Fastboot.exe with Kindle in bootloader/Fastboot mode

fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-otter.img
fastboot reboot

5. When you see bootloader again, select recovery

6. In TWRP>Wipe.Advanced Wipe>Check cache>swipe to wipe>back to Main Menu>Reboot>Recovery

7. In Twrp>wipe>Factory reset>back>Advanced>check all boxes>swipe to Wipe>back to Main Menu>Reboot>Recovery

8. In TWRP>mount>check sdcard>Mount USB Storage

9. Copy a Rom and Gapps to sd card>unmount>install rom and Gapps>wipe caches

10. Reboot

Not bashing CM but why is everyone so inclined to use it when it's not stable compared to other custom roms?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kraatus90:
because most other roms use cm as base , and if cm isn't stable other roms will be unstable too .

The exception being Moto G stock android + (Xposed + modules), which isn't based off CM. It is extremely stable and bang up to date!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juliatan:
I will never ever ignorantly buy again a Droid which is not (enough) stock Android first and formost. I had several Samsungs (S1,3,4) and a LG Opt.G Pro. Hate hate hate factory UI's since Nexus an now Moto G Lte. It is like raping Android with those UI's not to mention über-bloated unnessary battery drain and lag.

In perspective of this one know's if full CM (or better Slim Roms) support one has good alternatives for a Droid. Official CM support often means open drivers thus decent/good custom rom quality. If custom roms are dependent on blobs for lack of open source drivers their custom roms will be most of the time full of bugs and be crap.

Another perspective of full CM (or better Slim Roms) support is good quality of newest Android versions when for instance a Moto G is end of support and will not receive updates anymore.

So when a Droid has no official CM support (and aviabilty open source drivers) I will never buy it. No matter how cheap. Official CM support will also mean a big choice of good different custom roms.

Miracast screen-mirroring is fully functional in CM, but not in Stock. So to fully realize the capability of Moto G's hardware a custom ROM is currently required.

CM Miracast might be one good reason its true. However I have been getting perfect results using an Airplay app on a standard Moto G. Airplay is a well engineered cross platform system which works equally well with Apple, Android and Blackberry devices.

[XDA Assist] beeyatchslapp:
soo i dont even know what todo or even where to ask... everything i search on multiple websites is irrelevant.. im probably looking in the wrong places.. any help or a finger in the right direction would be amazing..

i have a boost branded htc one sv that ive had rooted for over a year. havent done much with my root capabilities other then enable my wifi tether and install useful apps that require root.. havent really messed with to many roms or anything too crazy.

well i soon relized that after i rooted it when i lost battery power the phone would boot into my teamwin recovery mod and freeze... it would still charge however just wouldnt respond. after a bit i would just pull that battery to get out of the frozen screen, boot into the bootloader and select recovery. then the TWRP would actually respond when it booted! just selected reboot system and off i went until the next time i completely wore out the battery. this was annoying but didnt bother me too much because everything still worked fine..

now about month or two ago while trying out some new apps my phone randomly shut off.. then after that everytime it started back up it has about enough time to load everything up and shuts off again.. and again and again stuck in a reboot loop.. ive tried deleteing temp files and checking what logs i can find but nothing helped.. the only way i can get out of this loop is to do a factory restore/wipe using the recovery mod. then the phone works normally again and i still have root.

but now wether or not i install anything after the reset, if i have a power loss i go through the same thing as normal starting it up as i always have done and it goes right back into the reboot loop.. here i go with yet another reset.... ive pushed this issue to the back of my todo list many times due to a very busy schedule recently but its very aggravating and i dont know how to go about fixing..

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glitchbit:
So I have spent the last couple of days researching this topic as I am extremely interested in making a Wii Controller with sensor bar work with the FireTV.

Here is what I know.

Amazon FireTV is running on Fire OS Mojito 3.0 which equates to a base Android OS 4.2.2. This does not mean, however, that the bluetooth stack is running on BlueDroid (Broadcom's bluetooth stack driver, which USB BT Joystick Center indicates that it breaks native compatibility with Wii and PS3 controllers, thus the app recommends a physical USB BT CSR device to work.). Supposedly FireTV is still using the BlueZ stack which ought to make things work normally, but Joystick Center does not detect the Wii remote natively still and of the 2 bluetooth dongles I already own they do not appear to be compatible for whatever reason. I have ordered a new one that may work with Joystick Center and I will report back.

There is every indication that Joystick Center should be capable of allowing Wiimotes IR pointers to work, but we need to figure out how to make it work and preferably natively.

http://www.pocketables.com/2012/03/usbbt-joystick-center-now-does-wii-motion-controls.html

I also ran into this interesting video of someone implementing CWiiD directly into the firmware of their device (in the video the guy launches as an app, but trust me it is not a simple app or one that you can find to download).

www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyAowQRkfto

This is the CWiiD project that I believe the folks at Ouya are using to allow Wiimotes to sync with their device and likely other apps in the marketplace both free and commercial (despite whatever gpl license that may be involved).

http://cvpcs.org/projects/android/cwiid4android

If we can start making custom FireTV roms then we need to integrate CWiiD imo, because if we can use 1 or 2 controllers as a replacement for a touch interface it would open up a wealth of cheap gaming via any app in the Google Play marketplace.

What currently works.

Wiimote Controllers v0.65

This does not allow for IR pointers, but it does allow for normal button presses of a remote control.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ccpcreations.android.WiiUseAndroid&hl=en

A Place to Start

If we want true Wiimote support then I think we need to start focusing our efforts on updating cwiid-android on github. This package is 4 years out of date as gingerbread was the last OS it was compiled for and it had IR support back then. Why no other developer finds this important boggles my mind.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] papperlapapp:
Hi there,

I installed the latest SONY firmware 14.4.A.0.108 on my Z1 and I tried to enable device encryption. But the device only reboots, no encryption. I tried several times, no success.

I searched the web and found a ton of tips, but none of them worked (e.g. unplug from power, kill all tasks and apps, boot to safe mode etc.).

I even did a factory reset and this did not help either. This can only mean, this is not caused by 3rd party apps, which are not there after factory reset.

Anyone here who has some hint about that issue?

Oh, the Z1 is not rooted, just plain Sony firmware 14.4.A.0.108

Thanks!

As the title says?

The only phones that are under 300 € are this phone, Z ultra, Huawei ascend p6, huawei G750, acer liquid e700.

I really, really like the design of this phone and I dont play games. I havent used a case on my previous phone and dont want to use one.

What is really making me think is some reports on self cracking screens, as I want to keep this phone on my pocket.

As for updates, I am interested to strap a CM rom ASAP.

I dont use google services. I know that the Zultra is a powerhouse, but its size is kinda a problem.

So, is it worth to pay 280 € for this phone or 290 for the z ultra? I kinda dont want a Huawei phone because of CM. I really really want a custom rom.

Hi guys, i wanna perform a downgrade back to jellybean because kit kat really gets on my nerves for multiple reasons..

The reason i have not done this yet is purely because i dont want to lose anything i have on my phone, basically I'm looking for a backup programme which backs up absolutely everything i have on my internal storage, including 3rd party apps I've installed and set up, downloaded videos which are stored within apps and everything else pretty much THEN once I have performed the downgrade, to be able to just restore the backup and have my phone identical to how it is now only with jellybean instead of kitkat.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
Very true, using the non pro version will work but it's a mundane task to have to allow and then install each and every app one after another, very useful if you plan on testing different roms with your apps, the automated process is so much quicker and it'll save you time.

Half way through installing 300+ apps you'll be thinking of that pro key.

Plus the do deserve your cash, amazing app titanium.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] originaltanksta:
When looking into these backup apps including titanium it says I need to be rooted to use the features i want. I'm not rooted and dont really plan to be. It's a shame really because i moved over to android so i had more freedom and control over my device and at first I had as much control as i needed with jellybean (more is better obviously) but the kitkat update pretty much made every sd enabled phone into a poor device. Plus I find the wifi range is really bad on kitkat but jellybean had so much better range. My point is that it's annoying that i should have to root my phone to make it as i want it and be able to toy with the settings when really it should already either have these features or be better optimised. Now I'm wondering if i should just root my phone rather than downgrading it? If i root it can i tweak the wifi range? And can I allow my apps to have better access to my sd card? Also if i upgrade to 4.4.4 can i still root the phone after? Cheers
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:

Fantastic help from you guys, much appreciated. It's good to actually be on a forum without morons! Lol

Ok so im now possibly leaning toward the rooting route.. Would you advise getting it done by someone in a shop or doing it myself? I'm pretty competent but if it's a risky process then I'd rather it be done properly! Are there any good tutorials for rooting from 4.4.4? Also does rooting wipe the phone memory? Cheers

And any app recommendations for rooted phones that allow me to sort out the sd access problems, also apps that allow me to tinker with my wifi range etc.. Just any good full customisation apps really so i can really get this phone as it should be!
