Thank you for the help! I am not at all opposed to a custom rom (I thought going backward might be easier than forward). But that goes beyond what I've read so far. I know I could Google it, but would appreciate any links, pointers, or other primers.

Stock + root is what I was trying to achieve.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Here's a version of stock rooted rom from the international version (no AT&T bloatware - yay!):

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51779967&postcount=294

You need either the odexed or deodexed version from this post since you are on hboot 2.22. Odexed is fine if you aren't planning on trying to theme anything though there really isn't that much difference between them. Odexed used to be preferred for smoothness but with phones as powerful as they are now, you would be very hard pressed to tell them apart. Basically you just need to make sure you are on the right recovery, flash the rom, then use the boot.img to flash via the bootloader and you should be good to go.

Because you do not have an SD card slot, you will need to use adb while in recovery to push the rom zip from the computer to the phone. Like so:

adb push rom.zip /sdcard/ (replace rom.zip with the name of the rom you downloaded - Hint: you can name it whateveryouwant.zip to make it easier).

If you need adb/fastboot: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

Just make sure you have the right drivers and ^ and the rom zip in that folder ^ and use the Command Prompt (make sure you change directories to the adb/fastboot folder) to enter the commands.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chilort:
The version of TWRP on my phone is 2.6.0.0. This is not version listed in the link you posted. They list 2.7.0.5. Will this be problematic?

I went ahead and gave it a try. I loaded TWRP and went into the adb sideload feature. The screen for sideload listed the following:

Updating partition details...

E: Unable to mount '/cache'

E: Unable to mount '/cache'

Running boot script ...

Finished running boot script.

E: TWFunc::Copy_Log -- Can't open destination log

E: Unable to mount '/cache'

Starting ADB sideload feature ...

I saved the rom as rom.zip to make things easier as suggested. In my terminal window I typed the command as listed (ADP and the rom are in the same folder). In the terminal window I received:

error: closed

error: closed
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
You will definitely need the newer TWRP before it will work. But you don't use adb sideload. As long as the PC recognizes the phone correctly, then you just need to open the Command Prompt, change directories to the folder where adb and rom.zip are store and then copy and paste the command into it and hit enter. It should start to send. It will take awhile and there is no timer so just go grab a sandwich or drink or something and be patient.

You can use this video for reference:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hn4E3fKX7WM

It's a different device, but the same exact steps. He does state that he puts the name of the rom after /sdcard/ in the command, but it's not necessary. Won't make a difference for this.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chilort:
Okay. That was somewhat helpful. I couldn't find TWRP 2.7.0.5, but I did get 2.7.1.1 and I got it loaded.

I've tried the adb command. It sits there for a long time, then the phone reboots into TWRP. I get no messages back in the terminal window and nothing is loaded into the /sdcard directory (or anywhere else as far as I can tell).

Edit: wait. Formatted it and am going to try again.

Edit 2: loading rom!!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Don't forget to fastboot the boot.img or it won't boot. If it is still stuck in a bootloop after the rom and boot.img are installed, then reboot to recovery and perform another factory reset. Should work. If not, then you might need the other TWRP. The link for it is right on the same post as the rom. Not sure how you missed it...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chilort:
I missed it because I didn't read carefully and am doing this in bits and spurts. :(

The good news is that I have a running phone again. Thank you so much for the help!:good:

[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sensboston:
After enrolling my Lumia 920 to the corporate Exchange email, new MDM (mobile device management) policies are applied to my phone. It's OK but company administrator(s) set the unlock password (pin) expiration time too short. Every damn month I should choose and remember a new pin... And I can not use the old pins (or I don't know what is the time for "clearing" my old passwords).

Do you know/could you suggest any tricks/hacks to get around this situation? I want to reuse my old pins.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarkD1988:
Hey Dude,

I don't think that you can do anything. And this is not the correct thread for such questions.

In the MS World the recommended value for reusing old passwords is 24 so after 2 years

(if 4 weeks was choosen) you can use the first one again.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sensboston:
Why do you think it's an incorrect forum? This forum is about "hacking", and I need a hack. It's definitely not a "Q&A" or "General" forums question...
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snickler:
Hmmm this WOULD fall under the Q&A because it is technically asking a how-to although it involves hacking. Typically the threads under the Development and Hacking are threads that start projects with the hopes of hacking instead of asking how to. With that said, I'll move that over there for now and if there is some development that comes out of this, it can be renamed and moved back to Development and Hacking.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
If you have a registry editor, it's pretty easy to tweak those settings. Unfortunately, you're on a Lumia so right now that's not possible (we're working on it!)

The only other option I can think of right now is to try intercepting the communication between the phone and the corporate server. Exchange ActiveSync uses HTTPS, so any standard HTTPS proxy (like Fiddler or Burp Suite) should work. You may need to set the proxy to use a client certificate (if one was provided for your phone), and you definitely need to install the proxy's certificate on the phone (so the phone trusts it to spoof the corporate server). Anyhow, once you have interception set up, it should be pretty easy to modify the policy rules that get pushed down.

In either case, though, the changes will only last until the next time the phone checks its policy rules. I don't know how often that happens - it *might* even be only at initial enrollment, in which case if you un-enroll and then re-enroll you should be fine - but it could be a problem.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sensboston:
GoodDayToDie, thanks for reply. Could you remind me: is it possible to just read values from registry on the Lumia handsets? At least I want to know value of the DevicePasswordHistory settings (according to this article).

[UPDATE] I installed Fiddler's root certificate on the phone, and able to catch & decode https traffic; however there is nothing about provisioning xml in the content, account synchronization produces 3 https requests, first response is a short binary data, second contains an email body (or header) etc. , no xml at all. Looks like MDM policies are applied only on service discovery (I should google for that). Will try to remove this Exchange account and add it again. By the way, I'm not very familiar with the Fiddler: can I change https XML response on the fly?

[General Questions and Answers] Crusher21:
Hello,

First off, I would like to apologize if I am posting this in the wrong thread as I am new to this site. I have always searched this site for answers to questions I have had in the past, but have never had the need to ask for help. However, today is an exception. Every time I try to install this app, I get the error "App not installed". I have read up on this issue and it is caused by a previous installation of the application leaving leftovers behind (the weird thing is that sometimes I get this error for apps that I have never installed before). For the majority of the apps I have had this problem with, I was able to simply navigate to /data/data on my rooted HTC One M8 and delete the folder associated with the app. However, this didn't work with a few apps I have tried recently. I then installed "ZipSigner" and signed the application and tried installing it that way, this way only worked for one of my apps. I'm stuck with this one app though that I can't seem to install. I have already tried making it a system app; however when I reboot and try to load the app, it gives me the application crashed error every time. I have luckypatcher installed also and I tried to install the app from luckypatcher but it also hints that there are leftovers (but I have never installed this app before lol). So idk what to do. I will not do a factory reset because this app isn't worth the time, but I really would like to find out how to solve this error. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Thank you!

EDIT: I have also tried adb installing it but that failed also. Another thing I tried was modifying the AndroidManifest.xml to change the name of the App when it installs, but I couldn't find the right code to modify.

[General Questions and Answers] zarkotom:
Hello.

I am using a galaxy trend plus, rooted with Solaris tend v6(The only ROM for it so far)(Its a touchwiz ROM BTW). So, I found out about HKTheme manager, which would allow me to use cm themes on my phone. Sadly, no matter what theme I'm installing, it won't show up in the app. When I go into settings>applications>manage applications the theme icon shows up, so that means the app is understood by my phone. Which could be the source of the problem? If you can, I'd be happy if you could also tell of an alternative to this app.

Thanks

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bzowk:
Hey Guys -

I've had a Shield Tablet for a couple of weeks and overall like it a bit better than the Portable I have. The worst thing about mine is that when powering on sometimes, Wi-Fi is greyed to where I can't even turn it on or off. Restarting fixes it sometimes, but up until recently x15 restarts in a row had it greyed out. I contacted Nvidia Support yesterday and they basically said it seemed like a bad unit. Long story short, before returning it, I wanted to try to update to the newest version, but had to do so via fastboot as OTA updating threw an error (it's rooted.)

Before doing this, I used Titanium to backup. As I have a 64gb SD which was 3/4 full, I configured Titanium to only back up each application's data. I also had previously had Google backup via my account - just the default stuff which may only get system configurations. I didn't have too much I wanted to keep except for my XCOM save games which I had worked on for 3 weeks. XCOM was installed to the tablet, but had been moved to the SD card.

After applying the update, the tablet was obviously completely clean except for the SD. I re-rooted, re-installed everything, then used Titanium to restore app data.

Upon opening XCOM, the initial "Resume Game" wasn't lit :(. I tried restoring it again, but no go. HOURS potentially wasted!

I'm trying to find any way to possibly get them back. Below is all I can think of so far:

- When setting tablet back up, I choose NOT to have it backup / restore. I know in iCloud, you can browse old OEM Online backups and download files with 3rd party tools. Is there a way to do this with Android - if it even would have backed it up in the first place?

- I still have the Titanium Backup - Is it possible the saves are still there, but not restoring correctly for whatever reason? The backed up app was moved to the SD card, but I also moved the newly installed one

Any ideas would really be helpful. Thanks!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gaúcho comedor:
I've been reading for a while now and I am still confused about all the different models available. It looks like all international models are bundled together here and I find it difficult to tell what's for what model. This is what I am trying to accomplish: buy an unlocked, non-carrier Note 3 that runs CM 11 to use with AT&T. These are my concerns/remarks:

1 - I am fine without LTE on AT&T;

I realize that The T-mobile version would be ideal for me, but it's way too expensive to buy new and I am tired of hearing stories of people buying it used just to find out afterwards that the phone is not fully paid for and it gets blocked. Also, I haven't been able to find a used one that wasn't damaged or worn out in some way.

2 - I don't want any carrier version of the phone;

All locked and there's no way around it. And not the T-Mobile one because of #1.

3 - It needs to have an unlocked/unlockable bootloader and run CM 11;

This is an absolute requirement.

4 - I'd rather have a Snapdragon version;

I always hear better comments about the Snapdragon version over the Exynos one since way back when. I'm not really sure this belief is true.

5 - If there are more AOSP ROMs for it, great, but it's not necessary;

If CM runs fine, I don't really need anything else.

6 - I don't care at all about KNOX or warranty stuff;

7 - I'd like to take advantage of lower pricing now that the Note 4 is coming out.

I see lots or ROMs here and even CM itself, but because they are all jumbled together here, I can never tell which model they are for specifically. If you can help me with that, it would be absolutely awesome. Thank you.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regoarrarr:
So I flashed a Boost Mobile Moto G a few months ago to use on Selectel. All was going well, until a day or so ago when all of a sudden my wi-fi stopped working.

At home, I (sometimes) see the connection listed under Settings, but if I click it I never connect. Sometimes even if I'm sitting right next to the wireless router (as I am right now), it is listed as "not in range". Meanwhile all other devices in the home work fine.

At work, we have a wireless network that is open but requires a browser sign in (like you see with free hotel wi-fi). It will show up either as "Not in Range" or "Saved", but if I try to connect to it, it just does nothing. Rarely I was able to get the "Sign into wi-fi" alert, but when I click that and go to the browser, I'm never able to connect.

I have tried the obvious steps of disabling and enabling the wi-fi / powering on and off, etc. I reset my home wireless router a few times as well though I don't think it's that since it is happening in other locations as well

I've seen a lot of posts about boot loaders,and TA partitions, and I don't really know what it means. So my question is this:

If I root my device, without unlocking the bootloader, will this have any adverse effects on my phone? So will I lose the ability to use the Sony stuff, or will my camera app stop working?

If any one could answer these questions it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance guys!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BanziBaby:
Rooting wont have any bad effects on your phone, it just means that apps that need root access can get it, you need root to backup the TA partition which is only lost if you unlock your bootloader, rooting means you will lose the OTA system updates but not OTA app updates in the update centre app. It wont affect the camera AFAIK.
