[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] Kongslien:
If it's stuck on obtaining IP, how do yout expect the app to work when it's not even connected? I know i'm not helpful, but i thought i'd give you something to think about. OR is the router stuck on obtaining IP via your modem?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] dunker56:
Actually that's a good point. I always thought the the tablet could still see the wifi modem, just not gain access to the internet, but now u've made me think...

When it does the 'im stuck obtaining ip' thing there are zero bars on the wifi icon, so I'm guessing it can't communicate with the modem at all :(

Shame, looks like I'll have to keep getting out of bed to manually reboot lol.

Wonder if you can get a reboot remote controllers for modems these days?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] Kongslien:
You can get a remote controlled power socket, controlled with an app or a designated remote.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] dunker56:
Yes I was just thinking about something like this. I have a 4 point power board in my house that is controlled by a mini remote that came with the board, you can turn on/off 4 different power points. Of course doing this via the actual device like a tablet or phone would be better in this circumstance, so basically I'm looking at this like it's an expensive app.

One thing, is cutting power to the modem suddenly in a non reboot fashion (via this app/power point method) likely to 'hurt' the modem? Akin to hitting the big power button on yer pc suddenly, it's not recommended is it, generally yer advised to shutdown computers properly, is it the same with modems? Or can they handle that abuse much better?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] scream4cheese:
Perhaps you should get a new router..
[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] dunker56:
There is that.. perhaps a new modem may fix the obtaining ip stuff. But then again it might be shelling out $100-200 for lols.

I just got my D851 G3. Loving it so far, but the browser is driving me nuts. Has anyone been able to make quick controls (from the now missing Labs section) appear in it?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wooba99:
I'm rooted and I've tried several different browser APK files trying to get this to work but they all force close. So far I've managed to get bookmark syncing working, but not a different browser with Quick Controls as an option. If anyone else has better luck, please less us know.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Penguyen:
Hey guys, whenever I'm in a call with the Dialer app/Skype and switch to speakers, why does it use the mic at the top of the phone (the one for noise cancellation I believe) and not the one at the bottom?

I'm using the latest OMNI rom version.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeepankarS:
Well maybe because the speaker is quite near to the lower mic and the person on the video call will get to hear his own voice too while you enable speaker mode.

Thank me if I helped :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JimmyVanZandt:
Hi All,

Great forum............if I had a clue what the h@ll you guys were talking about ;)

Seriously though I have a Telus S4 running 4.4.2 and Build number I337MVLUFNE1. I want to root the device only to be able to remove the Country restriction for some apps I want to load and delete some of the bloatware. Other than that, I don't have the knowledge to do much more.

I hate to ask such a basic question but there are so many versions, downloads etc and I'd hate to brick my phone.

Any help or advice is truly appreciated.

Thanks!

Jimmy

I flashed a rom and then this problem started happening since. My phone tries to go to the samsung boot animation screen but never goes through it, it vibrates and then reboot, i tried installing stock rom, etc, i can now go to recovery and download mode.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fburgos:
You might need a jtag
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] errusdan:

I Can install firmware through download mode.!""
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] errusdan:
Me too, i tried installing stock firmware and all that. Even i am able to use the aroma filemanager from recovery, to see all my files, and when i delete system, preload, data, cache, etc i can see that in fact the device deletes them correctly.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fburgos:
Sorry I miss understand, you can go in download and recovery, my bad.

Have you tried factory reset, Flash original firmware, factory reset, let it boot

What was your original firmware which file(s) did you use?
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bezalel321:
When the thing you said happened i went on the store and Luckly they replaced my phone. Your phone probably ruined thats what happens when you play with it:cyclops:
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] errusdan:
Yeah i know that there are risks when you install another roms and such. I've read that it can corrupt your internal sd card, maybe that is what happened to me? because i tried installing different firmwares, kernels, recoveries, wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, wipe system, wipe preload, etc, even i tried installing boot animations, and it stucks at the boot animation screen samsung galaxy, it tries to load but then it vibrates and restart like a loop.

I am now with the russian 4.4.2 rom, and yes i know that i cannot downgrade because of the bootloader version. But i tried installing modified roms with zip (like cm 11) in recovery, and it installs correctly without errors, the problem is with the bootloop.

[Xperia Z2 General] sgtmedeiros:
If this is T-Mobile branded does that mean I will get WiFi calling?
[Xperia Z2 General] compuguy1088:
Your thinking of the wrong t-mobile (USA). This rom is for the European T-Mobile.
[Xperia Z2 General] mcmaddcatt:
Honestly I have no idea. If WiFi calling is a Tmo USA feature like compuguy1088 mentioned then I doubt this ftf will be of much use to you. It comes with a branded bootloader screen and some preloaded T-Mobile apps written in Dutch.

I posted this mainly for the sake of having it out there. I got burned once with an Xperia Z suffering from the dreaded backpanel issue and had to send it in for warranty repairs. Luckily someone had posted the ftf for T-Mobile and I was able to restore to the firmware delivered by the carrier en relock the bootloader. The phone was fixed under warranty, no questions asked.

Hopefully this will be someone's lucky break.
[Moto X Q&A] seishuku:
Ok, I need a few extra kernel modules... So I figure I'll just rebuild the kernel, like I've done a billion times before on other devices.

Well, I must be missing something, because the kernel will NOT boot. My xt1060 just sits at the bootloader unlocked screen and eventually reboots (I'm assuming some kind of watchdog timeout?).

So what am I missing?

I've tried unpacking and repacking the original CM11 kernel boot.img (using the info from the unpack) and that doesn't boot either, it's also about 1mb smaller than the original as well.

After some reading I caught something on DTB images, so I'm guessing that's why the repack was smaller, but is that why it won't boot?

My mkbootimg came out of the CM11 sources and my XT1060 is running whatever the last nightly of CM11 (which is really old).

I'm not building the full CM11 source, just the kernel... I don't have the time for the full build (and shouldn't have to!)

Can anyone help?

Thanks!
[Moto X Q&A] seishuku:
I just tried again with some boot img tools that support DTBs and same result, no boot.

I tried using mkboot to unpack and repack and it puts out a file close to the original image, but still no boot.

What am I missing, is there a checksum that the moto bootloader needs?

What is CyanogenMod or TWRP doing to their boot.img that I'm not?
[Moto X Q&A] ram1443:
Hi seishuku,

I am also getting same issues while flasing with custom boot.img . I unpacked and packed using mkboot unable to boot my MotoX(XT1052).

If you got solution how to boot with custom zImage and devicetree please help????

Thanks

[General Questions and Answers] __gir:
Hi i'm developing a little project and I need to limit the user access to only one app. I based my project on the Nexus 7 but I rather use a cheap chinese tablet to lower the overall cost.

This is a list of the requirements of the kiosk mode:

- Only my app can be accessed by the user

- An administrator can go to app settings/system settings

- Remove the status bar completely

- Hide navigation bar on my app but show it on settings

- Custom update backend since play store update will be disabled

- Hide system notifications

- Anything needed to keep the end user inside my app....

I choosed to develop a custom rom based on AOSP. I know there are other possible solutions but I choosed this so i can release the code at some point. I think this rom could be usefull for some projects.

At this point I downloaded this brach "android-4.4.4_r1" and I made my app the default launcher for the system. I tested the rom image on the AVD emulator and it worked.

Any advice, help, guidelines, tips would be appreciated. Thanks!!

PD: I think I'll name this project AKOSP (Android Kiosk Open Source Project)

PD2: Sorry for my english skills :D

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] thewebsiteisdown:
New firmware for the stock version then? Thank you by the way!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] harrytery:
Welcome to the S5 sir! Seeing how you did a port for the Note I figured it was a matter of time you'd have this out.

Will check it out shortly and report back!!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
Yes, upgrade to rooted+ G900VVRU1ANE9 OTA & Odexed/DeOdexed bases for other ROMs including JasmineROM.

Thanks! This is just bases for the latest NE9 firmware. You'll enjoy v2.2 for both S5 & Note 3 soon ;)

I'll need 2 testers for the S5 ROMs: one for the Retail Edition & the second for the Developer Edition.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] harrytery:
Let me know if you need one for retail!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] trueagle:
I'll test dev for you

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] thewebsiteisdown:
I downloaded the NE9 firmware and verified the MD5 and made sure I have odin working. I just need the rom now which says uploading still.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
cuz it's still uploading! I've just restarted the upload for some reason; the deodexed version is 30% now...

I'll send the link(s) to testers 1st & release it in a few minutes after receiving their test results. OR if you wish, I'll directly release this initial version for everyone to test. It should work perfect though.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] thewebsiteisdown:
I'm ready to test it for you right now for sure. You're awesome thank you again seriously though.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] G2sws:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
Ok, this initial release ONLY will be released for everyone to test. If you're hesitated, just wait for reports from others!

The deodexed version is 64%...

JasmineROM v1.0 Deodex

The deodexed release of JasmineROM v1.0 is available for download. Testers only are welcome for now. Please wait for testing reports; it won't take long.

I can test for the dev edition if you still need more testers.

The deodexed version is available in OP; go ahead & test it!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] thewebsiteisdown:
Setting it up right now! Seems to be working fine. Thanks man!

Edit:

I have root and I'm now on NE9 which I wasn't before and I installed root explorer and it was granted read write access... Everything appears to be working perfect to me so far that I would care about.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
Great! The Odexed version (fully working + Private Mode) is 60%...

Enjoy this base until 2.2 will be released for N3/S5 ASAP with many features/updates & performance optimizations!

Let me get this straight. I am on ricks rom now {ncg}. so can I flash this in safestrap or do I odin back to stock {ncg}-take the update-ota- then root and safestrap- then this rom per your instructions? Sorry just want to make sure besides I want to try your rom.... Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
Just follow OP instructions! Flash in Safestrap & reboot to Download Mode to flash NE9 firmware via Odin.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] tttuning:
Ok so this is NOT v2.2 for the N3 correct? ??

Does this have the S5 look??? also will I need to flash this to flash V2.2 later??
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
Don't flash this on N3! It's S5 base for the latest VZW OTA. 2.2 will be released soon for both S5 & N3.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] tttuning:
Ahhh ok..sorry im using tapatalk and its harder to tell what forum im in lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
So this is just the newer s5 firmware.. i assume with these being bases i can use them to make my rom so long as i give you creds correct?

also, i found it impossible to get data working but if you can, over on the g900f forums theyve posted i believe ANG firmwares from Samsung which would b the newest update for an s5
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
Yes, it's the latest NE9 firmware for G900V. Feel free to use the 1.0 base(s) !

I've already ported NG2 from G900F & NG3 from G900T to N900V/G900V; everything including data is working as it should be. However, as far as NE9 is a new release by VZW, it should be the best (it has some updates/patches for the telephony/RIL codes). I can share the ported ROMs from other devices or make a hybrid ROM with the latest features/updates from all. However, this'd be a future update for JasmineROM.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
if u could pm me how u got data working thatd b great!

---------- Post added at 11:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 AM ----------

i misread your comment lol. i didnt know tmo was on ang3.. i guess all id like to know is how you got data working.. from the tmo firmware you just change apns?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] mobyj:
Download booster don't seem to be working. Can anyone else confirm this or have a fix... Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
The apns xml isn't enough especially when porting from GSM to CDMA & VZW network needs special MODs in apps, framework & libs. I'll create a guide for Porting To VZW on KK when possible. For now, I'll release a ported ROM soon with all international features including some from N3. This should be released very soon since N3 users are already waiting for it.

1.0 is just ~untouched NE9 base for Jasmine & any other ROMs. The forthcoming update will include many new features, updates & performance tweaks. Just be patient & follow the thread!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
awesome.. ill be using the ne9 base then for my next build.. hopefully itll fix my first call after reboot lag
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
you're welcome! It should fix it; it's a stock untouched NE9 (= the coming factory images, except the main features in OP: root, init.d, busybox, ... etc). If the problem persists, let me know & I'd be glad to help.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] timeToy:
Can we get some zip flashable version of the Kernel and Modem for us Dev. Ed. users? Or a version of the Firmware without the bootloader and recovery?

Thanks
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
Odin-flashable NE9/NCG firmware components/images (kernel/modem/recovery) are available from here.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] timeToy:
Just to be sure, how about I flash the modem in Odin? I try and it didn't stick.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
Did you extract the .tar.md5 image?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] timeToy:
Yes, of course, flashing seems to occur without errors both with "Phone" or "Pda" in Odin, but it still show Baseband version G9000VOYU1ANCG after reboot. Any idea?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
Which file have you flashed? Just make sure you've downloaded the NE9 modem,

G900VVRU1ANE9_modem.tar.md5.zip

not

G900VVRU1ANCG_modem.tar.md5.zip
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] timeToy:
Yes...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
What about the kernel?

Select file in PDA!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] timeToy:
Kernel Flashed fine, Kernel date is now Jul 17.

Yup, just tried again to be sure, the right file, unzipped, with Odin in Pda mode...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
If other users who flashed the NE9 firmware/modem have the same results, I'll recheck the modem.bin image.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
is there a changelog for the new firmware? i wonder what is different? kernel and modem i assume?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] BadKarma81:
Verizon has a changelog pdf somewhere, I don't think it's very useful because it only mentions apps that have been updated... one of the things I noticed is that it seems to include whatever "performance" enhancements were added to the European S5 a few weeks ago (available ram drops from 1.81 to 1.67 GB, looks like ram for the graphics chipset was more or less doubled). I think I found the pdf on sammobile if you're curious.

Here: http://www.sammobile.com/2014/08/01/samsung-galaxy-s5-gets-an-update-on-verizon-and-t-mobile/
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jaladhjin:
I've had a few different phones I've flashed roms on & this is the first mention I as a play it safe CM user has heard of flashing firmware in Odin..

For the uninformed uneducated like myself.

What does flashing this firmware do?

What happens if I flash the rom but not the firmware?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] donbudafuko:
Well flashing the ROM without the firmware will probably get you bootlooped..the firmware is an update to the phone it is vital for some Roms to run like this one...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] claytonjn:
I just tried flashing the NE9 modem in Odin 3.07 and I'm also still seeing NCG under baseband version. Perhaps a recovery flashable .zip would be more successful? I can put one together if someone can point me to a temple and the correct partition to push the modem.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
The firmware includes the following files from NE9 OTA:

NE9 primary bootloader: aboot.mbn
NE9 secondary bootloader: sbl1.mbn
NE9 trust zone: tz.mbn
NE9 RPM: rpm.mbn
NE9 kernel: boot.img
NE9 modem: modem.bin & NON-HLOS.bin

As for the changes in the above files, all I know is that they're patched/updated & the bootloader + kernel are required for running the latest VZW OTA. This includes patches for all system files & full updates for some.

For DevEd owners, DO NOT FLASH FIRMWARE/BOOTLOADER. IT WILL LOCK YOUR DEVICE !

OK, I'll re-patch the modem image from NE9 OTA. It isn't necessary for running NE9 ROMs (you can run NE9 update with any ––NCG or NE9–– modem), but it may be worth the update.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jaladhjin:
Sooo there's 2 downloads the ne9 zip & the ncg..

The ncg is the current build most roms are on amirite?

I also notice there's 2 places in the quote. The 1 .tar.md5.zip & that Odin flashable components right below.

Can a person not flash either of those via safestrap?

I've never used Odin either. If I do. Do I flash the rom via ss then while still in it before restarting load Odin or do I need to get to fastboot despite the loader locked tight like a tiger & all?

I do want to try.. Just don't want to **** it up.. Haha

Oh I see one answer you mention download mode for Odin use.

Is that different than fastboot?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] hsbadr:
I've uploaded a re-patched NE9 modem image. Let me know how it goes. If it does't work, I'll create a flashable zip for Safestrap from the OTA patches.

Yes, NCG is the stock build before VZW OTA. NE9 is the updated firmware.

You just need to flash the ROM via Safestrap & from there, reboot to Download Mode to flash the NE9 firmware via Odin (select file as PDA). The Odin-flashable components are for DevEd cuz they can't flash full firmware not to lock the bootloader.

Yes, I can provide a modified OTA update for the firmware only but it's NOT tested.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] lancem71:
Has anyone tried to Odin using the mobile odin?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jaladhjin:
Are download mode & fastboot the same thing?

---------- Post added at 07:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 AM ----------

Mobile Odin doesn't work with Verizon s5 as of my last install attempt a few weeks ago.

I'd be happy to be wrong now but I checked the play store info still no mention of Verizon s5 :(
