fail (size) means some of the files will not fit on the partitions your device has - flash a rom from the same country as it had when it was shipped

Hi,

my sony xperia active was running Cyanogen Mod9, I wanted to install PacMan Rom. I downloaded pac_satsuma_4.4.3.Beta-1.0_20140608-215837.zip to /sdcard, booted into recovery mode, wiped the partitions and installed the zip. After the reboot, I am stuck in the "free xperia" bootscreen. After recovery to Cyanogen9 backup, I see the "free xperia" screen, which changes to the Cyanogen9 bootscreen, where I am stuck, too.

What went wrong? :eek:
[PAC Q&A] Langes:
You need to follow the below instructions as the partition layout of kk ROMs for your device is different to stock.

flash stock ftf

flash the kernel in the 443 Beta zip (boot.img)

reboot to recovery

goto mounts and storage and format:

/system

/data

/cache

flash the ROM

flash gapps (optional)

reboot

enjoy

btw recovery is touch enabled, so you can use swipe gestures instead of volume keys :)
[PAC Q&A] mootin:
boot.img was the issue. Flashed, but flashed the wrong one. Thanks for your assistance :)

I also flashed GApps 4.4.3 micro, now my keyboard (which is active in settings and the only one installed) is not working (can't see a keyboard when activating a text-entry (like play store login, texting, ...)

So my friend asked me if i could help him with his Android phone (HTC Desire Z) bicuse he could not call or use the internet on it.

so i said sure ok, then when i had a look on it i saw that it were rooted and had a Costum Rom installed, so i told him i could fix the phone for him then when i got hom i reseted the phone but it didnt work, sill the same problem, so then i held down, down+menu+power to open the cwm boot loader and installed a costum Rom called ViperZ_2.0 it instaled good but when i rebooted the phone it got suck in a bootloop, it starts then i see the cwm boot loader menu :,(

So how do i restore the original rom/fix the phone from the boot loop?

I could understand swiftkey or swype or something, but google's keyboard, if you're a swyper, is horrible. LG's is decent, not as good as swype, but about as good as swiftkey and it has some nice features. I enjoy the lg keyboard, although this one handed thing is a bit of an oversight.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] David464H:
Ok if you say so guys.

Also, can you please explain me how the words

Enabled, but when ever i swipe up, from bottom to top, the

I will try to write the word success:

Any idea what is the problem?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] screwyluie:
perhaps you're running over the spacebar? I tried to reproduce but I got 'success' every time... so I'm not sure what you've got going on there.

also make sure in the setting you've 'update word suggestions' makes a huge difference

Hi

My Wacth Sumsung Galaxy Gear model SM-V700

I've just watch the firmware update Tizen OS

I want to connect the iPhone 5s

IPhone 5s bluetooth turned on, and I find the GEAR and Connected .

But when I turn on the time I'm confronted with the following Welcome screen:

How can I connect my iPhone to watch this case?

Color ID only works ?

Is there a way to enable iPhone Notifications on your Galaxy Gear SMV700 ?

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] bballengphd:
Have a look through this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2578416

Something to note:

1. your iphone needs to be jailbroken, if your phone cannot be jailbroken or if you have no idea what I am talking then you have to stop here.

2. you will need to down grade you gear to android 4.2.2, search on this forum, there is a thread on this. Then flash null rom according to the instructions both in the thread above, as well as in the null rom thread here on this forum.

3. most importantly, make sure you read and understand what you are getting into. Just like many of the other things on this forum, it is a work in progress.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the help you

According to your post in the thread that I did have a question for you.

My iphone is jailbreak IOS 7.1.1

Gear Android first time back, right?

What should i do next? I did not realize the next stage!

I appreciate all your help. I'm a newbie
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] bballengphd:
As you indicated that your gear is on Tizen, use info from this thread to downgrade to android:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2776157

After that then follow this thread to flash null rom on your gear:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2562997

then you can follow the instruction on the gear connecting to iphone thread I posted earlier. Sorry I do not have an iphone so I am not sure how much help I can be, hence i asked you to read and understand everything in that thread before doing anything. But if you still have questions, don't hesitate to post them here, I am sure others who have an iphone may help.

Nope, the only options have been named already.

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] jason.T:
I have mine working with my LG G3. You need to find a way to sideload the Gearmanagerstub.apk, change the permissions to rw-r-r, then install the Gearmanager.APK Version 2.1, set the permissions the same, then install. Open Gear manager, install all the files it wants to install, and follow instructions on how to sync the gear. I haven't ever done an iPhone, but that is how you will get all the notifications.

I understand you haven't done an iPhone so you don't know. Let me teach you this. Android applications won't install on ios devices. And vice versa. An app dev has to recode the app entirely.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saltorio:
I normally use Google Drive apps (Docs and Sheets) on my tablet (an original Galaxy Note 10.1 running Revolution HD), but have found occasions to use those apps on my Note 3 lately.

The problem is, that any time I hover my stylus over the screen while in those apps, I get unending haptic feedback vibrations. I've looked at the system settings, and haven't been able to find anything that will disable this, but it's quite distracting.

Has anyone experienced this and maybe know of a solution?

[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
Hi - I've tried a thorough search through the forums and haven't found what I needed; my apologies if this question has already been answered. I have firmware 10B and I successfully rooted using IROOT.

I borked up my stock camera app (short version: I tried to install a modded camera; it didn't work and when I went back to the original stock files they didn't work either). I downloaded the original camera apk from another post and tried that as well. No luck. When I download the apk, it shows up with the proper icon in my downloads file. But when I move it to system/priv-app, the icon is replaced with a generic "apk" icon. When I double-click on it, it gives me a parsing error. I've tried setting permissions but the outcome doesn't change. When I click on other apk files in priv-app, an update window appears.

Depending on what specific actions I take, I generally run into one of two problems - either the camera app doesn't show up at all in the app drawer, or it does show up but when I click on it I get an FC.

I've run out of ideas to try, so I'm hoping that I can get some help. Here's what I'm thinking I might need:

1) Original stock versions of lgcameraapp.apk, lgcameraapp.odex (both from system/priv-app), camera_config.xml, meda_profiles.xml (both xml files are in system/etc)

2) Tips on any other camera-related files that I might need to replace

3) Suggestions on how to correctly add lgcamera.apk and lgcamera.odex into system/priv-app (i.e., do I need to delete something first; when should I reboot; any other settings besides permissions; clear cache or dalvik - which I haven't figured out how to do; special reinstall script, etc.)

4) Any other helpful tips or suggestions

I definitely have earned a slap on the wrist for failing to backup first so any criticism or judgment will be humbly acknowledged.

Thanks in advance. I'm hoping that even though this is sort of a cluster, maybe someone else will benefit from any solutions that turn up.

[Verizon LG G3] phobos512:
What app did you use to try to replace the files? Did the app ask to remount the /system partition as R/W (default is R/O)?

What permissions were you using (should be 0644 HEX or rw-r--r--)...?

Should always append .bak to files being replaced, do NOT delete ANYTHING. 32GB should be plenty able to support this...

You should .bak the original apps, add the new apps, change their permissions. Then, .bak the .xml files, add the new files, change their permissions. THEN you can reboot. If all the permissions are right you should be good to go at that point. You don't need to do anything with clearing caches, dalvik, etc.
[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
Thanks for your help! I am using ES File Explorer to move the files around; I had renamed the original .apk and .odex files as .bak, but I didn't think to do that with the .xml files.

I tried it again, double-checking that I used the permissions you suggested but it still didn't work. Then on a whim I renamed the .xml files as .bak and tried once more. The camera app successfully launched this time - and it took pictures - but there is still one small problem; the preview does not fill the whole screen. So I'm making progress but not 100% there.

Can anyone post copies of system/etc/camera_config.xml and system/etc/media_profiles.xml? I'd love to get the camera app working correctly again, but at least now I can take some pictures!

Thanks, helpfulstan

There you go

---------- Post added at 05:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:09 PM ----------

What do you mean the preview doesn't fill the whole screen? At max resolution it won't.
[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
Thanks for the files. Unfortunately it still isn't working. There is something else going on here and darned if I know what.

What I meant by doesn't fill the whole screen is that it doesn't fill the WIDTH of the screen (when the phone is held portrait) at full resolution. You are right that it doesn't fill the whole screen top to bottom at max resolution. On my phone, though, even the 10M mode doesn't fill the whole screen top to bottom.

I'm also noticing that tap to shoot isn't matching up with what I see in the preview. When I tap, it focuses and shoots, but the focus point is not where I actually tapped. It's like the tap to shoot thinks the preview is filling the whole screen even though it's not (it's focusing on the place that my finger WOULD have tapped if the preview were the right size).

The other thing that I've just noticed is that I can't shoot videos. The app FC's.

I'm wondering if maybe there's another .xml that got crudded up somehow. I now am using your stock versions of all the files you sent me - so clearly the camera app is using at least one other file to determine the screen size, preview size, etc.

Another oddity - Google camera is working almost perfectly. I can shoot pictures and videos and the previews are the correct size. However, when I try to use the settings in the Google camera to change the resolution, it FC's. So my guess is that Google camera is accessing the same messed-up file (or files), in addition to it's own configuration files.

Anyway - I really appreciate your willingness to help with this. This is kind of an interesting (but inconvenient) mystery to me. Thanks again, helpfulstan
[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
Ok, I figured it out. More later. Thanks for your help, it did the trick.
[Verizon LG G3] phobos512:
Good deal. Curious to know what happened.
[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
In summary: although I knew I needed to change permissions, and thought I was changing them correctly, I wasn't.

The longer version is that for some reason (entirely my fault) no matter how much I looked at rw-r--r--, when I went to set permissions in ES File Explorer I kept leaving out the last "r". In the permissions window, the different settings are laid out in a table rather than with letters and dashes. So I would select Read and Write for the first option, Read for the second option, and it just escaped me that I needed to select Read for the third option as well.

After all your help yesterday I did a search for recently edited files (to see if there was some other mysterious settings file that had been edited). In order to do that, I had to modify the view in ES File Explorer to show file details, which showed permissions in addition to the dates. As soon as all the permissions were showing up in the file browser, it was obvious that the permissions for the files I changed wasn't the same as the permissions for the existing system files.

I have no idea how long I would have struggled with this particular user error if you hadn't posted the correct permissions in the format that matched my browser!

Once I got the permissions set correctly for all four files, I rebooted, and everything has worked perfectly from then on.

If anyone else makes the same error I hope they find this thread because it might save them a lot of grief.

Thanks again, helpfulstan
[Verizon LG G3] phobos512:
Glad to hear it. I use Root Explorer, that's why I asked about your permissions. RE displays the permissions in the rwxrwxrwx format natively in the directory displays. But, when you go to change them it looks like this in a little popup with checkboxes and then it tells you at the bottom what the CHMOD code would be and the rwxrwxrwx looks like.

Read Write Execute
Owner [] [] []
Group [] [] []
Others [] [] []

Set UID [] Set GID [] Sticky []

Enter Octal #### rwxrwxrwx
[Verizon LG G3] droidBolt:
Glad you figured it out!! Now is there any way you can post screenshots of what you changed the permissions too and which ones you changed. I am in the same boat you were...not sure what I did but I am getting the forces close like you described when trying to open the camera....ugh! Do I need to download the stock files posted earlier?? I am also using root explorer but will download ES file mgr is that will help fix this.

Any further help would greatly be appreciated!!

Thanks
[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
It can't hurt to download the stock files since those worked for me. Just make sure to rename, not delete, the old files. The .apk and .odex files go in system/priv-app and the .xml files go in system/etc. I'll post some screenshots of permissions in the morning; gotta get my kids to bed before things fall apart! Stand by ...
[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
Ok, here's what it looks like from ES file explorer. For me, as soon as I had the permissions right and the files in the right folder, all I had to do was reboot. Good luck! helpfulstan
[Verizon LG G3] droidBolt:
Thanks!! Will let you know how it goes

Hey, when i hit the LGCameraApp.apk it opens up as a package installer.....did you have the same thing happen? Wasn't sure if I should proceed with any installation?
[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
I would avoid that. I'm not sure if it actually changes anything (ultimately it will tell you that the installation was unsuccessful) but it doesn't get you anywhere either.

To select the file without launching the installer, long-press (at least in ES file explorer). Then click on the overflow menu (three vertical dots) and choose properties. That will bring up the dialog box that shows permissions and allows you to make changes. h.s.
[Verizon LG G3] droidBolt:
Sigh, still not working. This thing about to make me delete the camera and start over from the downloaded files lol.
[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
If you post some screenshots I'll see if I can spot anything you might have missed.
[Verizon LG G3] droidBolt:
this is what I have...not sure what im missing.
[Verizon LG G3] droidBolt:
And I have the permissions set the same for all 4 files
[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
Hm. It sure looks right. Did you try the posted files above? One other thing to look at is if you have any of the files in another system folder accidentally (like system/apps). I know in my saga I ended up somehow installing the camera app as a downloaded file and had to uninstall it through application manager. I'm assuming you have the media_profiles file in the right place and with the right permissions. I'll let you know if I can think of anything else. h.s.
[Verizon LG G3] droidBolt:
I still have all the old files but renamed them all .bak...at least i thought i did. I will go back thru to make sure. I have moved them all to another folder i.e downloads or whatever. should i just uninstall those? right now im just using a camera app and thats working but just want everything right.
[Verizon LG G3] droidBolt:
update!! So this morning I basically deleted all the files and downloaded the stock ones from the earlier post again. (Thanks again to Phobos512 for posting that link). Reinstalled, renamed and fixed permissions and rebooted.....and that still didnt work! So i basically gave up for the day and just went on with my work day. For some reason I decided to open the camera again a min a go and low and behold....IT WORKS!! I dont know what changed from this morning but hopefully it stays working. Video camera is working also.:good::good:

Thanks man for all the help I really appreciate it!!
[Verizon LG G3] helpfulstan:
That's terrific. I wonder what clicked to make it all work? My guess would be cache or data (clearing data from the app is always a good trick to remember) but whatever it was, I'm glad things are working for you! h.s.

Hello forumers,

I hope you will help me with this as I am creating my first ever app!

Right so, the major questions that I have are these: my application is map based. I need to gather big numbers (10+k) of data of specific locations and implement them into the map somehow.

What is the best way to collect data about specific locations?

What is the best way to implement that gathered data into the map?
