Yea near stock is good for me as im used to touchwiz, so id like to learn the sense system before switching around, i just dont want to make a stupid move that could have been avoided with research, but im also a very impatient person lol ok well i guess ill be flashing that tomorrow after i run sunshine. I used App2Zip to backup apps on my gs4, will this work on my m8 aas well? I find titanium backup a bit flashy for me, i need a simple user apps backup and that app works perfect

Ok so i will be using the sunshine app today (around 12-1 o'clock) to S-Off my m8. Ive noticed talk off WWE, and ppl discusing changing their HBOOT, and im curious if this is important? After i S-Off my device i will be flashing ARHD ROM (later tonight) as this will be my first ROM flash on this phone, im extreamly nervous. Ive made a nandroid backuo in TWRP. I just want to make sure ive covered everything, nobody like a $600 brick and considering i owe my mother-in-law for this phone, id like all to go smooth as i dont want to die lol. So guys any more advice? And other than a nandroid backup, is there any other way to cover my butt just in case?

WWE = world wide English

Changing hboot is often not needed just to flash ROMs. However Android 4.4.3 (HTC software 2.22) based ROMs (ARHD 10.2 is one) happens to be an excepton; as you will need to flash what is known around here as the "firmware package" which includes hboot, radio, and other things. If you don't flash the firmware, you will likely get some serious bugs on 2.22 ROMs, including long boot times, as well as broken WiFi and Bluetooth.

You can find the process for flashing firmware below. I used this one:

http://xdaforums.com/att-htc-one-m8/development/att-4-4-3-2-22-1540-3-debloated-sense-6-t2837365

And specifically in the ARHD thread here also (note that for the AT&T version, firmware 2.22.1540 is recommended as you might get NO SERVICE on the international firmware): http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54408500&postcount=9592

Be very careful you understand the process, as flashing hboot or radio is one of the few ways to

actually

brick the phone.

---------- Post added at 01:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 PM ----------

Just flashing a ROM is actually not that risky (although flashing hboot or radio can be, as mentioned). Its actually pretty hard to brick this phone just flashing a ROM, as long as you make sure to only flash ROMs or other mods only meant for the M8 (GSM).

Just be sure not to flash anything meant for other devices (including the Verizon or Spring M8) as you can actually brick the phone this way if the partitioning is different, and you overwrite any critical partitions such as hboot, radio, or the partition table.

If you stick to the correct ROMs, usually the worst that can happen is a boot loop or failure to boot into the OS (phone stuck at boot screen). But if that happens, its usually not that hard to recover. There can be various reasons and different corresponding solutions. But usually reverting to nandroid, flashing a different ROM, or re-installing recovery (and flashing the ROM again) will fix you up.

Although,

nervous

is a good thing to be; as it will also mean you will be

careful

. Which is really half the battle.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LiLPurP:
Ok guys i have gained S-Off on my device, just a quick rundown, and correct me where needed

1. S-Off is not required for rom changing, but helps

2. I have 4.4.2, any rom that has a different version than this you must first flash the firmware package first, and this can only be done in fastbootusb (if step is skipped can expect lots of errors or bootloops)

3. WWE just means roms from america? (Doesnt seem correct)

4. Changing HBOOT is not required for changing roms, unless the rom calls for it

5. Other than the android version, there is a htc version on the phone as well?

This is kind of overwhelming so far, and im not the best at instruction manuals, im more of a visual learner. And it helps when things are explained in detail, for example, explaining that i need a firmware package helps, but why do i need it, the more i understand the better i can make my decisions. And thanks guys, this is huge help, ive always come to xda for help, this free community works better and quicker than anything ive tried

Downloaded the unmodified 2.22.1540.3.zip firmware, this is the correct firmware for my AT&T M8 right?

And if im right ill:

1. adb and flash the firmware twice to be safe, then reboot the phone

2. adb flash TWRP recovery, then reflash supersu in TWRP to regain root access

3. Then flash the ARHD 10.1 ROM?

Hi all,

I'm building some Zooper Widgets, that will work with Tasker to get some information from OpenVehicles about my car, a Tesla Roadster, which will be connected to OVMS(hardware+software to get data about the car). So far I've made the following, before putting some data in it.

It contains the same information as the cars' on-board computer, showing temperatures of some crucial parts, as well as the current battery load and status. I might include more data.

I'm posting here because I could use some design/usability feedback, please give me some ;)

The following is from OVMS itself. Not my work nor screenshot:

Possibly

It might be possible if the devices are the same model for example both are the international p6-u06 and if the new device also has the same twrp installed,also remember if you do try it, first format cache/dalvik/internal mem/data/cust then try to restore backup.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] zeusakatkm:
I had an AT&T S4, and I know someone had ported the Google Play Edition ROM to work on that phone which also requires Safestrap. How possible would it be for someone with more skills than myself to follow the same procedure to possibly get a Cyanogenmod ROM working with safestrap on our S5?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Greycloak42:
With safestrap you can only use roms that are based on the stock kernel. Unless the bootloader gets unlocked we will be sick with touchwiz roms.

Until someone figures out how to unlock the bootloader, the best I have been able to do is use the Dynamic Kat ROM and the GPE theme. Plenty good enough for me.

Dear all,

maybe someone can help me:

i am using lg g2 d802 with latest philz touch and cm11 snapshot m9

I dont know why there are still random reboots on latest cm11 snapshot... Is this only a LTE Issue? At cyanogenwiki there is mentioned a kernel panic issue which let the phone reboot in some cases...

I am using cyanogenmod since the lg,g2 was released and from the very beginning i had these kind of reboots...approx 5 times a day

So please can someone tell my how to solve this reboot problem? Maybe another Kernel? I have never done a full wipe while updating another nightly.. Maybe that is the point?

Many thanks in advance!

You appear to have posted this in an number of forums. That's bad form, you should stick to one thread. The same amount of time put into a straightforward search would have seen your question answered already. The answer can be found in the S5 manual, myriad search results or on Youtube. Long press on the message balloon instead of the unopened message. Then select forward from the popup menu.

Google search: forward text message s5

Or even better, upgrade to a better third party SMS app.

If you still have problems, post a .PNG screen shot and provide details of your firmware version, app version, what you have tried, et cetera.

You didn't tell us what SMS app version you have or anything about your SMS or APN configuration, so there is no way to discern what might be amiss on your phone.

At a guess, try installing the stock SMS app here

Rename the old SMS app and the corresponding odex file if your system is odexed. Clear your cache and move the new SMS app to /system/priv-app per the directions in the post (do not install via the package manager).

Hi I had this same problem but it appears you may have set your phone to EasyMode. In Easy mode your Samsung S5 collapses your phones functions for specified applications to the bare essentials.

The solution:

1. Find the EasyMode option and set your phone to "Standard Mode"

2. Remain in EasyMode and uncheck Messaging.

Worked for me. Hope it works for you too.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdinoz:
Ok,

GT-N8000 was on stock Samsung 4.1.2 Rom. Rooted using Chainfire, installed CWM 6.0.3.6 and then flashed a CM11 rom from here on XDA.

Rebooted happily, logged in, set-up the tablet and happily worked for about 24 hours.

Tablet at some point rebooted, got only as far as the first "Samsung Note 10.1" white text on the screen and the tablet refused to do anything else.

Can boot into CWM recovery

Can boot into Odin Mode "Downloading"

When booting into Recovery, I can browse all the options, but when selecting any action, the tablet reboots.

Have tried downloading a fresh stock rom (4.4.2 from Vietnam from Samfirmware), and flashing via ODIN. Odin seems to flash OK, but when the device reboots, straight back into "Samsung Note 10.1" screen.

After that flash, when trying to boot into recovery, it still goes to CWM and not the stock Recovery.

Have tried downloading a new PIT and flashing that when flashing the new stock ROM.

Have tried Googling several items, and here on XDA, but not entirely sure where to try next. Suggestions would be welcome.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filchi756:
Have you tried full erase(factory reset) via recovery mate including the internal SD? And remove the external SD just to make sure, then reinstall the stock 4.4.2 firmware. Can I ask why did you install vietnam version when you are in Australia? Where did you get the pit file? Is it for 4.4.2?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdinoz:
When in CWM and trying to full reset, the tablet reboots a few seconds after selecting the option. Have removed sim and sd card prior to flashing.

Vietnam was one of three roms I was d/l from Sam mobile. I was trying to grab various roms, but they were getting to 70/75% and then failing. I have also tried flashing now a Singapore rom and a German rom. Cannot find an Aussie stock rom on that site anywhere, or anywhere else for that matter, which will download.

Have successfully flashed other region roms on other Samsung devices, so assumed this model would be no different.

PIT file was a last resort effort, found here....http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2730188

After flashing any stock rom, the tablet continues to not restart, but still let's me boot into CWM oddly (should flashing a stock rom via Odin reinstall stock Recovery?).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filchi756:
Suppose to be when you install full rom the custom recovery is erased and back to stock recovery. What version of pc Odin are you using? Try ver.1.85 or 3.07 if you haven't yet. And just to be sure have you installed any other 4.4.2 rom prior to stock 4.4.2?And maybe you can try philz recovery for custom recovery.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdinoz:
Odin - have tried 1.85, 3.07 and 3.09

Rom - When the tablet was on stock 4.1.2, was rooted following method (2) here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1831152 and had installed CWM 6.0.3.6. After gaining root, copied zip files for this rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2550308 to the externalSD and performed a factory reset, wiped data etc and flashed OminRom 4.4. This booted happily, and worked for about 24 / 36 hours (ish) when it's owner claimed it rebooted at some point, and came back only the the "Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1" white text boot screen, and went no further

Recovery - Since the issue first started, have tried various flavours of re-flashing CWM (both Touch and Non Touch), TWRP mostly from here: https://goo.im/devs/Darkman/Recoverys/ and a Philz Touch recovery sourced from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2202714

Each time have been flashed using Odin and using the .tar.md5 file types (as the CWM simply crashes and the tablet reboots now when trying to flash a zip via recovery). Have set Odin NOT to auto-reboot, however whilst Odin reported no obvious sign of error, upon reboot to Recovery, went straight to the previous CWM 6.0.3.6 recovery.

And now my head hurts......:confused:

Note: I did say in the opening post was a CM11 based rom, but it actually was an AOSP based rom,
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filchi756:
So that means you can't even install custom rom?Can I ask what version is written in download mode is it still N8000?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdinoz:
Correct. If I try to flash via CWM, the tablet goes thru the motion of flashing the rom (the bit where the developers ascii logo appears) followed by the little blue line telling you the custom rom is installing, and after a few seconds tells you that the flash is complete.

The giveaway is that this entire process takes about 15 seconds - and you just know that the rom has not flashed. The second is that immediately when it completes, the tablet (yes you've guessed what happens next...) just reboots back to the Samsung logo.

But yes, when in download mode, the tablet is definitely reporting as still as a GT-N8000. Its also has some other text (sorry the thing is not in front of me right now) about the binary counter of 3...?

Cheers
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filchi756:
About the binary thats not a problem. So your problem now is error flashing via CWM right? Try Philz recovery mate in custom rom installing. And make sure your custom rom is fully working and tested mate. Try to open the zip in pc if it had any error. And how about installing a custom recovery any luck with it installing too?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdinoz:
But there lies the problem.

I have tried flashing Philz both via Odin and via CWM.

It "appears" to flash in Odin, but when the tablet starts, its still CWM.

When flashing in CWM, it fails to flash. (I'll get you the error message when I'm back in front of the tablet).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdinoz:
So, here is Philz Recovery flashing in CWM, showing a successful flash:

Hello, sorry if this has been answered, i did a search for black screen and didn't find the same thing.

Basically my nook hd+ is about 2 months out of warranty. When i try to power it on, i can see the screen light up but nothing is displayed (its all black and dims slightly). When i was messing with it trying to reset it, it started to read aloud the applications i touched on or button i pressed. So the touch screen is still working even though it's not displaying anything. I tried to hard reset it, by holding down the buttons and pressing the n twice, but that didn't seem to work either. Anyone got ideas?
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 2092952:
Don't know what that is -> "holding down the buttons and pressing the n twice".

But if I had this problem I would...

Hold down the power button for >10 seconds as this completely turns off the device, then attempt to turn it back on.

And if that failed to work... let it sit and run out of battery, then plug it in to the wall usb adapter, let it charge for an hour, then try powering it on with the power button.

And if that failed to work, since its outta warranty, buy something that works.

But that's only what I would do ;)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] levenum:
Ok.

C++ is an extension of C to include object oriented programming. The language is not specific for mobile devices, so any book / article on the subject will do for starters.

I taught my self C++ after learning Pascal (Delphi is for Pascal right?) in school and it was quite easy because the languages have similar structure.

Your second stop is to learn WIN32 programming. I don't know how Delphi deals with APIs and function exports (that's what you need for DLLs).

Basically WM programming is very similar to desktop windows programming, except for a few miner difference (like all APIs using only Unicode).

You can download a free development tool called eVC 4 from MS. It looks exactly like Visual Studio 6 if you have any experience with that.

Unfortunately system DLLs like plugins can not be written using .NET but if you search MSDN (I really don't remember the link), there is an article on how to use a basic C++ DLL for the plugin and delegate all the real functionality to a .NET DLL.

Good luck.
