Use Twrp and make a nandroid backup.

So you can easily restore back.

You just have to flash rom then gapps for it. That's all
[Nokia X] TranceMusic2014:
Please do you know how to instal TWRP boot for Nokia X? (URL for a manual)

I used Nokia X Toolkit and they only offered CWM recovery...

Also, what is Nandroid backup? I reckon it's something similar like full backup in CWM, only in TWRP, right?

Thanks.

Twrp link...

Yes nandroid backup means backup of full nand, the process is same lik in CWM.
[Nokia X] TranceMusic2014:
Thanks.

What do you think is the best current ROM for Nokia X? With the minimal number of bugs?

I've browsed the whole forum for Nokia X and found LineageOS by Sofiane omega. Do you think it's the best one?
[Nokia X] RAZR-93:
The last time I used my Nokia XL was a year or two ago

Nonetheless, CM11 was pretty stable.

And the LOS port of it is basically the same, so same great result.

If you'd like, you could try out CM10 as well.
[Nokia X] TranceMusic2014:
I am hesitating between LineageOS and Lovi OS. Lovi OS is new and is official.

Which of these would you recommend? Or any other (most stable) ROM?

By the way, my Nokia is not XL, but X!
[Nokia X] RAZR-93:
Yeah I know you have Nokia X, lol.

Here's the thing, I'd suggest you try both roms and see which you like better. In the end, it's all about your satisfaction. ?✌
[Nokia X] TranceMusic2014:
Deffo, thanks.

One more thing. The LineageOS works correctly. However, only in English. When I switch to Czech (my language), I can't even type. "The Keyboard application (AOSP) stopped working", it says.

Czech language has got some special characters. Would you know how to solve this? Is is very serious? I like the LineageOS, but I cannot use Czech keyboard (and language) because of this :(
[Nokia X] RAZR-93:
Use gboard app from play store.
[Nokia X] TranceMusic2014:
OK thanks :)

I now try to install the second, Lovi OS.

But when adding Open Gapps in TWRP, it says:

this gapps package is for android 4.4 x only

and ends.

Which gapps to use?
[Nokia X] RAZR-93:
Idk why it doesn't work.

In that thread there are no gapps links as well. I'm afraid I'm not capable of helping you on this.

Just in case, try using 4.1.2 gapps.
[Nokia X] abhijit1998:
open gapps is for android 4.4.4 and up... Lovi OS is 4.4.3... so open gapps will not work...

there is more Variety of ROMs like PAC ROM, Nameless ROM, Nexus X ROM etc. These ROMs are KitKat.
[Nokia X] rony raj:

hit thumbs up if i helped you

Hehe I don't use them anymore lol it wasn't for me ??

Does anyone have or can make CyanogenMod11 for Nokia X Flasher?

Does anyone have or can make CyanogenMod 11 for Nokia X Flasher, as I tried to install CyanogenMod11 to my Nokia X, but looks like some updates of the system are missing from my devices and it is not longer possible to get them from Nokia, while image prepared for Nokia X Flasher (https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2744881) would be a universal solution.

[Nokia X] zogoibi:
Thank you. Does this mean that CM can NOT "officially" be installed with Nowa recovery?
[Nokia X] safio990:
yes nokia xl still rebooting after flashing the patch
[Nokia X] symbuzzer:
Maybe it is from another issue. Can you provide logcat?

Maybe it is a good idea to porting cm 10.x.x (which is based aosp 4.1.2, I dont know detailed versioning) firstly. We already have working kernels for both models.

I think we need aosp notification drawer more than kitkat.
[Nokia X] bangdes:

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AZBoomer:
I have been noticing that when I am looking at darker solid colors they sometimes appear to have a slight gradient to them. I know this is an AMOLED panel, so when a true black pixel is displayed, that AMOLED display pixel should appear completely black (as in, NO light is emitted). This is one advantage to AMOLED panels. So even at 100% display brightness, a true black screen should appear OFF.

So I created some test images in Photoshop to see to see how different shades of black and near black appear on the screen (I tested tones from 100% black to dark gray).

From my test, I found that my tablet does in fact turn completely OFF when 100% black is displayed. BUT my panel actually appears to have a slight backlight bleeding problem (Edit: Mura Effect).This is only noticeable when I am viewing colors that are very dark (but not completely black) and consistent. Also, It it's only visible in pretty dark rooms. I am not sure if I am going to return/exchange my tablet out yet.

I thought I would share my process for others to try to see if this is a common problem first...

Here is a Dropbox link to the files I made to test the problem:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wtfuazfn7i7z09o/AABvbRuA7-MUx_tF7xmmGSfAa

Method:

1: Open link up in the Dropbox app on your tablet (file sizes are full screen). Or feel free to download the files to your tablet and view them in the gallery app.

2. Turn screen brightness to 100%.

3. Make sure you're in a DARK room.

3. View files on your tablet at full screen.

Image 1 should appear 100% black (your screen should appear OFF). Image 1 is NOT going to be the image that will make Mura noticeable. Image 2, 3, 4 and 5 should start to appear slightly lighter as you scroll through the images. Watch out for inconsistent shade gradients like you see on my examples below (this is what tells you if you have Mura effect problems).

Here are what my results unfortunately look like. As you can see, image 1 does appear completely black (don't mind the reflections in the pictures). But the effect is pretty obvious on images 2 and 3 :(

What are your results?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fletch33:
well first of all seeing my screen on full bright but appearing to look off was pretty cool. also on mine i did not have a bleeding problem and they all seemed to have a solid difference with nothing visible to my eye.

i have the 10.5 and had to put in portrait mode to gett full screen.

thanks
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mitchellvii:
Well technically your super amoled panel cannot have backlight bleed because there is no backlight. What you are seeing is referred to as a mura effect and should not be happening with this advanced of a panel. It has been confirmed that some of the 8.4 units have defective screens. On my 10.5 unit all dark colors look solid with no mura effect at all. Here is one of your sample images on my screen. Of course if you view this on your tablet you may see the mura effect. View it on your PC.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ThE_SoUrCe:
No 'bleeding' here either.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockbastard:
I have a T700 (8.4) and have just testet you pictures, - mine also have some Mura Effect, however not as dominant as the ones you posted here.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BarryH_GEG:
Even if there is a problem if the only way to realize is to create conditions no one would ever encounter (100% brightness in a dark room on only specific backgrounds) is it really a problem?

I would get an exchange if you still can. Never know what the ramifications in the future to the display may be.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SteveYorks:
Exactly this. Some people have waayyyy too much time on their hands, I don't know how they manage to live their lives if this sort of nothingness is enough to trouble them. What exactly are you intending to do with this tablet, color time a Hollywood movie?

Must be a real killer for some people every time they have to change channel on their tv, I have to wait 0.4 seconds for the next station to come on. It's terrible.

:D
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DAvid_B:
Nobody can see this with their naked eyes.

Everyone that posts about this use ultra high iso pictures to show it.

Its a non problem.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AZBoomer:
It actually is pretty noticeable even at 25% brightness when you're just using the tablet normally. Now it doesn't show up everywhere. You can see it pretty easily in the notification shade and in the settings menu. Or when you open up Chrome with no tabs, that background is not perfectly solid and I notice it every time. You can also see it on darker full screen photos too.

Still not sure if I care enough to exchange it. Although, I am very picky about image color representation as I am a photographer and this panel on AMOLED Photo mode matches my calibrated monitors pretty well, but that dark gradient just bothers me sometimes!
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rockbastard:
Is yours also the 8.4 version?

3 I work with all have the 8.4 (T700) version myself included. All have visible Mura effect at normal settings. Samsung run an ad campaign here in Denmark, where you can buy and try for 30 days one did an exchange - but same result, visible Mura effect - however under normal working conditions is not a big issue.. Bur as a still photo viewer I understand your point.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LoVeRice:
Mine has dark mura at top right corner with dark banding at the lower screen :(
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AZBoomer:
Yes, I have the 8.4 inch version. If it really is that common, I may just keep it. It does bother me, but overall I am happy with the tablet and am happy with the battery life. Not sure I want to chance getting a new one it it not being any better...We'll see though.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ukael:
These are the conditions to make it easily noticeable. I on my hand did notice the issue on regular use of the tablet:

- First noticed it while reading an e-book, the tint of the background was not homogenous.

- Then I noticed it while browsing the tablet options: "huh, the gradient on the background is not regular.. oh wait, it's not supposed to be a gradient".

- And now I notice it while playing movies, when the scenes are dark.

100% brightness is not a requirement for it to be visible. Actually, minimal brightness while in the darkness works very well at revealing the issue.

However, it is extremely unlikely that someone ever notice the issue while using the tab in daylight. In my case, I use it mainly in the darkness, and often get to see it.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheGoD:
Damn you OP, mine got it too...anyway, it isn't really noticeable with most content so I just keep mine since it seems very common anyway.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inkedadrenaline:
That's defective. You guys should not be satisfied at keeping it like that. I have no such effect. I'd take it back if it were mine. I didn't pay $600 for a tablet to have a defect like that
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ukael:
I don't know if it's defective, but if it is it's a defect that affects most AMOLED screens and all of the Tab S 8.4 I could test it for (3 of them). My Galaxy SII is affected as well, so is my PS Vita. And my friend's. And his Note II.

I returned my unit twice, once through the online store and once through the physical one, all of them suffered from Mura effects. Either I am utterly unlucky, or a large amount of the tabs are affected.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Inkedadrenaline:
I don't know.... In another thread someone had pics to download and test and I don't suffer from this screen defect. Just me personally I wouldn't be happy if mine were like that, I'd have to exchange it or get a different tab.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Canadoc:
Mine has it too. But more like a single band about 1 inch wide 2 inches from the edge of the tablet going lengthwise.

Don't really notice it unless a dark background like the notification shade.

Might buy another one to see if is better though to be honest browsing the web and watching videos i do not notice it.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] touchwiziscute:
I have it pretty bad. It takes half of my screen. I can see it at any brightness on most dark colors. A dark photo will be displayed with a very obvious gradient. This problem was not apparent when I purchased the tablet. I am now past my return date and have rooted. I am very disappointed.
