TIPS: Amazon Streaming Video (Prime Video) & Turning Debugging on

.

TIP no.1: Amazon Streaming Video (especially for Amazon Prime members):

If you have trouble streaming Amazon video (as I did), and you don't want to mess with build.prop, a quick easy fix for me was to uninstall the Amazon APK's (store, etc), then:

install the Amazon APK Store/Market at http://Links.PJR.bz/Amazon-Prime-Video (Play analog for distribution of Apps), which is marketed to some other country (Germany I think). Don't worry, it's still in english if your Android is set to that as default language.

Next, open that, search for 'Amazon Instant Video', install THAT one and then install the Amazon market (all from within the Amazon App Store on your tablet)

Now you can stream video without fiddling with Dophin or other browsers (via buggy flash).

BUG: Note that the video player doesn't have all the controls visible. You can't even pause as far as I can tell (initial test).

... AND IN COMPLETELY UNRELATED NEWS...

TIP no.2: USB DEBUGGING TIP: (for those attempting to root with Purple Drake)

For anyone else who (like me) forgot how to turn on USB Debugging, go into Settings > About Phone > then scroll down and tap on 'Build number' until it says you are now a developer (to enable Developer Options, which is where you must turn on USB Debugging). I'm seeing lots of people just RANT at Noobs to turn on USB Debugging, without explaining that (and frankly, it makes YOU, the more senior person, look stupid, when you don't provide critical info like that for those who often won't know it).

It just keeps saying waiting for device i have drivers up to date USB debug enabled and still nothing i have been rooting phones and tablets for years including to lgs what am i doing wrong
[LG G Pad 7 Questions & Answers] LeighR:
Not sure. I had trouble with purple drake - it simply wouldn't do anything. I updated the drivers from the LG site and it worked.

Do you have "Unknown Sources" checked?
[LG G Pad 7 Questions & Answers] zoomzoom9:
Try running purple Drake first, then connect your device when it says waiting for device.

[LG G Pad 7 Questions & Answers] jpjust:
I will check this. What I have done was to get the same binaries required by v400 port (some of them were not found in my tablet). Maybe if I get as many libs as possible to try.

Also, I couldn't get logcat because I plugged my USB cable while the screen was like "Red LG logo" and nothing happened. dmesg returned nothing.

Anyway, yesterday I compiled my changes in CM12.1 source and tried it. I got the LG logo screen and the text "ERROR : boot certification verify"
[LG G Pad 7 Questions & Answers] jason2678:
You need to bump the boot image. Also make sure you're on a kitkat generation bootloader. It is pretty easy to do it manually if you already have a box that can build android. All you need is linux and python.

You should be able to get this worked into the build process. Check out mkbootimg.mk, there should be some path to bump stuff set in there. TARGET_REQUIRES_BUMP needs to be set to true too. If you started with the V400 then the scripts and makefiles should be set up to output a bumped boot image; you might just need to tweak it for the new build target.
[LG G Pad 7 Questions & Answers] jpjust:
Many thanks for this information :good: I didn't know I had to do such thing. I'll try this when I get home at night and post any results here.

[LG G Pad 7 Questions & Answers] jason2678:
Here you go.

I pulled this off my V410 (not 20C - I never took any of the OTAs). It is probably the same. As long as you aren't totally bricked and only have fastboot I don't think it can hurt to try. If it happens to fail just boot back to system and nuke it with /dev/zero again.

I restored it this way one time just to see if fastboot actually worked because fastboot seems a little wonky on this tab when you give it reboot commands. Brought back download mode just like it should.

I got my vk410 rooted and the bootloader unlocked is there anything I can do to help get a custom from or recovery working? I can explain how if anyone is interested. I flashed the AT and T kdz and used the oem unlock through adb to get my bootloader unlocked I then flashed back to the Verizon kdz so that my tablet would run (it kept crashing Imguessing because I don't have sa sim card or am not with atandt or w/e). I also got Xposed working and running just by using flashfire to install it. I had to do a factory reset after getting xposed installed because it wouldn't let me install any module or any app for that matter after initially installing xposed. After doing the reset though it seems to work well. I had to reflash the Verizon stock once because one or more of the modules I was using seemed to leave me bricked in some form and I couldn't get the tablet to turn back on but after reinstalling and not using so many modules I'm up and running again with no problems.

help for lg glad 7 v410 att 5.0.2 bootloader

hello this is my first time posting so i hope that its in the right spot and is seen. i need help unlocking my boot loader for my lg g pad 7.0 att v410.i have a mac laptop and i tried to root it with purple drake lite and it said that my phone wasn't vulnerable. the only thing i was able to do was to download king root from (edited)and it rooted device no problem. then i tried to install a custom recovery (twrs) 2.8.5.0 and i used flashily to try to flash it but it goes to reboot and when the lg logo pops up in the upper right corner it says error and freezes until i restart it again then it just boots normal. it is still rooted but i can't install custom recovery i think its cause the boot loader is locked and i can't find any ways to unlock it. I'm running lollipop 5.0.2 on my lg glad 7.0 v410 the late version. can someone please help me? also android file transfer doesn't work with my mac even tho i dl the lg drivers and put tablet into map and pop mode. purple drake reads it but nothing else.

p.s. the twos was bumped and still didn't work.

again i hope this is in the right place and it finds someone tat can help me. I'm new to android.

i jailbroke all my iPhones and installed siri on iphone4 not 4s so i understand a lil about mobile devices but android is way different.
[LG G Pad 7 Questions & Answers] fernandodojo:
Bro, the custom recovery only works with KitKat. So, u have to downgrade first. Only then u flash the recovery.

As far as i know there's no way to flash a custom recovery on lollipop on this particular tablet.

Logcat at boot

Hello, folks.

I have compiled CM12.1 for v480 and I could make it boot (I get CM boot animation). But the device is in bootloop.

I tried using 'adb logcat', but adb keeps 'waiting for device'. 'adb devices' shows me no device. How can I enable adb at boot? Is there any option or setup in source files?

Also, I am building an userdebug flavor.

TIA.
[LG G Pad 7 Questions & Answers] jason2678:
Try this. Examine /default.prop and /system/build.prop. Look for the following values and set them as listed here:

persist.service.adb.enable=1
persist.service.debuggable=1
persist.sys.usb.config=mtp,adb
ro.adb.secure=0
ro.secure=0

This should force enable adb, bypass debugging authorization since you can't give it when you're not fully booted, and enable root access. Not at all a secure setup, but if you're getting booted up far enough to get adbd running this should force it to on for troubleshooting.

I had to get v480 kernel source from LG and copied some stuff from there to v4xx kernel source. What took a long time to realize were the DTS files. The panel DTS file from LG didn't work. So, I just tried using the DTS file (only panel) from v400 and it worked.

The touchscreen driver for v480 is different from v400, so I had to copy some stuff for it too. The problem is that I took too much time to realize some little stuff, that's why it took so long.

LG V410 LTE Bricked

I used PurpleDrake to root my LG V410 LTE, then flashed the current Cyanogenmod recovery and ROM.

I never could get into any sort of recovery except for the factory hard reset.

When I booted up the tablet, I would get the LG logo, then it would go to a smeared screen... it looked like something was displayed, then displayed again down a few pixels, and so on down the screen. If I waited long enough, Cyanogenmod ROM would appear.

I figured I had messed up the boot.img, so I searched and found one for the V410. This morning, I flashed it using Flashify.

Bad move... now upon boot, it shows the LG logo, goes to the smeared screen for a bit, then shuts off, and shows the battery charging logo (while plugged in to USB).

The other weird part is that I can no longer connect to the tablet via USB and my Windows 7 machine. It says "USB Device Not Recognized".

You experienced folks have probably been past this stuff a long time ago, but I would appreciate some help to get this tablet working again. I've flashed several phones, but this is the first tablet for me. Thanks in advance.
[LG G Pad 7 Questions & Answers] jpjust:
Try entering recovery mode. In v480 (LG G Pad 8), you must hold POWER+VOL DOWN until LG logo appears. When the logo appears, release the buttons, then press and hold them again (POWER+VOL DOWN). A factory reset screen will show up. Choose "Yes" in this screen and in the next one. Recovery should load. This is how I do on v480, maybe it will work on v410 too.

After entering recovery mode, you can reinstall CyanogenMod.

This happens when you try entering recovery? If yes, seems that you have flashed a buggy recovery too.
