[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roshu10:
Hi all,

I have few questions in mind

1) How dev(XDA dev or others) release custom ROM's so soon before manufacture releasing the updates ?

2) How many developers work on cyanogenMod(or any other custom ROM) to a perticular device (say moto g)

3)How Dev get profit from releasing custom ROM's

4)Most importantly, whether cyanogenMod ROM containts the exact same code as google release( whether dev add any code to google release of Android code) ??

Thanx for any Answers !!﻿
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xavier102296:
1) Devs are able to release custom roms before actual release because they port an os from another phone in this case the Nexus 5 and the Moto X are the easiest to port since they are close to home. Then they modify to work for a certain phone . in this case our beloved moto g :)

2) Well it depends on the developer support some roms can have as many as 20 people working on it and a few brave souls take a crack at it solo. However a popular phone like the moto g has a lot of dev support so you wont see many solos trying to build a rom.

3) Actually people believe that devs make money off of the custom roms they make but this is not the case devs take out thier own business are personal lives to make these roms for us. However most devs have some sort of PayPal account that u can donate to to show your appreciation :)

4) Your right its the same code as google however its heavily modified that's why it's called a mod but if your looking for a rom that's close to stock CM is your best bet.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shabbypenguin:
1) QA isnt a thing for us. moto has millions of customers they need to pass certifications and do very in depth testing to make sure things dont just break. custom roms are community hacks of lets see what works and what doesnt.

2)Thats a tough question, out the gate, cm and teh like dont just work on devices or assign people to them unless they are big tickets like the s5/m8/g3 etc. usually someone who has the device steps forward and works on a rom and then submits it to be made official, or the owners pitch in and try to get someone who will do that for them a device. in my experience there tends to be a few people who do the device tree bringup and then all the other roms just use those files and run a few commands.

3) LOL. The only time i have seen teh likes of profit is if you are a kernel dev and people are chipping in money to help get you the latest device they own so you can work on their device and abandon the old one. Root people occasionally get bounties but even most of that is a sham, most bounties end up getting 35-60% of the total amount pledged. roms and recovery tend to net the least IMO, on average i get about 5-10 bucks a month depending on how many devices i port recovery to, make a custom kernel or give root to.

4) Nah CM is very different than AOSP, lots of hours worth of work have gone into making it what it is today.

[General Questions and Answers] probain:
Hi,

So I've recently got to enjoy the fruits of CM's latest stable release for my S4. However, there is one issue with the dialer that is really getting on my nerves. I humlbly accept any help in resolving this issue.

App Version: com.android.dialer 4.4.4-b2ebc9246e

When I enter phone numbers manually. The numbers are displayed with a grouping that isn't usually used in Sweden. I have tried changing the phones locale to everything imaginable, without any luck. Se below for an example:

Current grouping: "012 345 67 89"

Preffered grouping: "0123 456 789". OR "0123 45 67 89".

Even an option to disable the automatic insertions of spaces would be beneficial. e.g. "0123456789"

With stock, the number grouping would be correct if I used English UK. However, this new dialer doesn't seem to honor locale settings.

Last but not least: A humble answer to the sure to come question "why does it matter?".

I'm used to see numbers grouped in a certain way. Americans may be used to the "current" way of doing it. But alot of people aren't. And I'm really hoping that we can come to an understanding that options are ALWAYS good.

Thank you in advance!

Update:

So I've just determined that it's related to the automatic area code detector. e.g the number "0476- 22 22 22" shows correctly according to my wishes,. However, standard celnumbers are displayed as "070-322 22 22". With this in mind, I would very much like to disable this "feature" ;)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading] wotthefok:
Hello,

I have an Xda2s that has no service (no telephone signal reception) post an upgrade. I have since upgraded the radio stack (3 times upto to 15 and back down to 12) and have installed lots of different ROMs (including wm5 and wm2003) from different manufactures. All with the same result, no service.

Wireless LAN and bluetooth seem OK and I've treid 2 differnt sims, albeit both on o2. I also get all the correct information displayed on the boot screen - GSM looks ok.

Is it just spooky timing that the phone has broken? It has had a hard life and rattles a bit. Is there any final checks I can do before either sending it for repair or selling it on? Is there and aerial that can come loose?

Can anyone reconmend a repairer, should one be required?

Can I ask anymore questions in one thread.................

Thanks

Good Day.

Got my z1c a couple weeks ago and am loving it. Managed to root it. I have yet to pull the trigger on unlocking the bootloader. I have seen lots of AOKP and CM based roms but are there any Sony Based Modified Roms to keep the Camera processing intact? I am not the biggest fan of CM although I am sure its improved over the years but the camera and battery issues are of no interest to me that I keep reading in the majority of the roms posted. So can you please point me to some Sony Based Modified Roms (if they even exist)? Aslo, do I have to unlock the bootloader to put on another Sony based ROM? Lastly, I do have to unlock the bootloader if I want TWRP or CWM correct? TIA!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zxz0O0:
You can find some custom Sony Roms in original dev section. Usually you don't need unlocked bootloader for Sony roms.

You also don't need unlocked bootloader for recovery, see for example dualrecovery http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2261606

I've been using RomAur 9.1 for quite a while now without any issues, but with a locked bootloader you'd lose recovery if XZDualRecovery still isn't working. Somebody would have to try if a current version works, I'm using encryption which makes it a bit complicated for me otherwise I'd try it myself.

But you know it can't be done. Why are you asking for help with something you know can't be done?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
It's the Google syndrome. No matter how many time we say NO, there's tons of You Tube videos, blogs, and web pages out there from MDK phone users showing how to install CWM on MDK phones, back when there was only MDK. Even here on XDA, there's posts with stale data that people won't update. Those posts, videos, etc. get posted but never updated, and people view them and are convinced that we're all idiots and it's really easy to install TWRP/CWM on their NC5 phones. When you don't realize that those don't apply to your phone, you brick it.

Read the sticky threads here, and you'll be able to understand what's possible. Failure to do that will cause you to soft brick your phone.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] dimm0k:
Everything was fine and dandy for me with 4.3 MK2, but with towelroot out I figured now was a good time as any to update. Update to 4.4.2 NAE was fine using Odin, except now I'm having some audio related issues that I'm wondering if it's because of NAE or if it's because of an update gone wrong (corrupt piece somewhere). Basically experiencing two issues

one - audio skips every now and then even when I'm not actively using the phone. This is happening to me in Rocket Player, Spotify. I'll have music playing, screen off, and for no reason I can see the audio skips. Immediately after the skip I'll check CPU usage using CoolTool's graph and don't really see any big spikes.

two - while in Rocket Player, MX Player, VLC or Spotify if I press the volume up button the system freezes for about 6-8 seconds before the app is responsive again. during this I can switch back to the Home screen, but the app I was in is unresponsive. this is even when I'm in the app, but not actively using the app (no music/movie is being played). if I have music playing, but I switch to the Home screen, the button works fine.

anyone run into either of these two problems?

[MX Player] Mrpong:
Hi,

I tried to search and look around in this forum and still cannot resolve my problem.

I just installed MX Player pro. I ripped and made one MKV movie file from bluray with embedded subtitles in the file.

I tested the file with my TV and DUNE HD player and also tested this file on my computer with XBMC, VLC media play. The movie can be played smoothly and I can control, select, enable, or disable subtitles as usual.

However, when I loaded the file to my Samsung Note 8, MX player pro can play movie smoothly and fine. The only problem is that there is no subtitle shown, although I selected or enabled subtitles.

I also tried enable and disable in Setting > Subtitle > Enable Subtile and Setting > Subtitle > Enable Embeded Subtiles , but it doesn't help.

Please suggest.
[MX Player] bleu8888:
Did you check subtitle track button on the playback screen?

There may a speech balloon button on the upper right corner of the playback screen, if video have one or more subtitle tracks.
[MX Player] Mrpong:
Hi bleu8888, do you mean the mini button on the right corner? There are H/W, subtitles, audio.

Yes I checked it. I enabled one, two, or sometimes even all of them, but no subtitle is shown.

Note: I just tested the file with "VLC for android" and it works as expected. All subtitles work fine.

Thus, I guess there must be some missing or incorrect configuration in my MX Player Pro. Please help.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigred97:
Hi folks,

I need a stock/near stock kernel (for 900P NE5 firmware) with SE set to permissive. I need it to be able to run my Appradio.

I don't care about messing with the clock speeds or voltage or anything!

I was running the Governaa but that's ND2 and seems to not be getting revisions.

So can anyone help me out? Maybe change the stock kernel over or tell me exactly how (what programs I need and what lines to change)

I can upload what ever files needed, just tell me what and where they are.

All I need is permissive

Thanks
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
I can only assume that you didn't look at the Sprint forum at all. Or do a search, because everything you want is in clearly labeled threads near the top of the forums. It's a good habit to look first before posting. Often you can get an immediate answer and it lets you pose more informed questions.

Lots of firmware and kernels to choose from. You could simply keep your existing NE5 (if you want), root it and then add a custom kernel. You need a custom kernel to gain Permissive status.

It's unclear what you mean by seems to not be getting revisions.? That sounds like you might mean OTA updates. It's not smart to allow automatic updates if you have a rooted phone and custom kernel. An update is likely to remove your root and other grief. If you really feel that you need automatic updates, you should buy and use either Mobile Odin Pro or Super Su Pro, both of which have features that try to retain or restore root after an update. That is not a guarantee that you will keep root, but it works pretty well.

The thread below has links to the firmware and custom ROMs (if you wish) or just to the rooting guides and custom kernels.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigred97:
Actually I did/do look in the sprint section, all the time. I had just go done going through every available kernel before I posted this. So maybe I wasn't clear on what I'm after, or maybe you shouldnt be so quick to assume...

Clearly the phone is already rooted if I'm looking to change kernels.

What I meant by " seems to not be getting revisions" was in reference to the "Governaa" kernel I mentioned IN THE SAME SENTENCE. Sorry if that was not clear.

That kernel has not been revised for newer firmware so I cannot use it. Nothing I said has anything to do with OTA updates.

All of the available kernels are way more involved than I need/want.

So for anyone that would like to be helpful, and is unsure what I am looking for: I need a stock/near stock kernel with SE status set to permissive. I don't need/want any bells and whistles

Alternative: guidance on what files/code I would need to alter to get stock kernel to permissive (if that is even possible)

MODS feel free to move this to the sprint section if you feel it's better suited there
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fffft:
What you want is clear like mud. You are making lots of unstated assumptions. You did

not

say that your phone was already rooted, nor does it follow that it would already be rooted if you were looking to change kernels. You don't understand what or how permissive works.

And you (still) didn't explain what you meant by seems to not be getting revisions. You didn't even clarify that "Governaa" was the name of a kernel in your original post. And you assume that we are familiar with this specific kernel and how that might relate to "getting revisions", rather than simply stating what the issue is.

What is clear is that helping you further would be challenging, so I'll leave you to your own devices. Nevertheless, everything that you need is in the thread that I linked to. If you still don't want to read a few posts there in your own best interests.. well that's your choice.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] reinaldistic:
I'm getting annoyed that every time I turn off wifi the wifo callind feature keeps bugging me to connect to wifi even if I'm not at home or near any wifi... Any way to shut it up so I can still use it at home but it doeant bug me when im not on a wifi area?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sim-X:
There is no current way to do this as far as I know as I don't believe there is a tasker plugin for wifi calling. The only thing you could do is set up key presses in tasker so basically a macro to emulate what you want to do. I used this technique to set it up so when I connected to wifi, it would automatically detect that and switch the phone to CDMA only so the phone is not hanging on to a weaker LTE signal for no reason wasting battery. When wi-fi would drop it would go back and set it to LTE. It actually works fairly well and much better battery life especially since I have a repeater in my office.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] reinaldistic:
Found a way!

This breaks ALL notifications from wifi calling but it doesn't break the functionality of calling itself. So when you're on wifi you just gotta trust that wifi calling is connected (or go into settings to see if it's on). Also it DOES break address confirmation but since this should only be a one time deal for most people you can just reenable the service when you need to confirm your address if you're adding a new network or simply want to re-confirm it. You also wont be able to turn the service on and off in settings, but since it's not a radio itself turning of wifi will kill any battery usage by wifi calling:

1. Get ROMtoolbox (I have the pro version so idk if it works on the free version)

2. Go into app manager

3. Find and open wifi calling (make sure its NOT the one from htc)(also dont just select it, make sure you go into the menu)

4. Go right to the advanced section

5. Select advanced freeze

6. Find the service "vowifiservice"

7. Click on it to disable it and agree to the promt

8. *optional* Reboot the phone or refresh the setting to clear any notifications currently showing
