[Xperia Z General] boanoite:
HAHAHA,thanks,but all this was possible because of what people like NUT,and many others do,i am just a small,very small developer :)

Obrigado!
[Xperia Z General] asakurato:
Was hesitant to install any custom roms, because of such variety and here is the stock! Thank you very much.

P.S. Is data wipe needed or just flash?
[Xperia Z General] boanoite:
Just flash!!

Just follow the steps and everything should be ok!
[Xperia Z General] asakurato:
Just installed. Seems good, but there is too much bloatware, especially vodafone and google apps. Also, supersu version is old.
[Xperia Z General] boanoite:
If you just read post #1 you would know that there were bloatware,i said it!

You are rooted,install titanium backup and uninstall the apps you want.

Supersu,easy,just update it!

See very easy,what more can i do for you?

:)
[Xperia Z General] asakurato:
I don't say that this ROM is bad in any way or I can't delete those apps(actually I like to delete them myself). But won't be it easier to remove those stuff? Some people don't know what to delete. Just saying.

Sent from my C6603
[Xperia Z General] boanoite:
Let's not start a discussion here :)

I just point you in the right directions,i didnt said anything bad about your comment.

If people are flashing these roms and rooting and what not,they know what apps to delete,those are only apps,not anything weird.

BTW i already made everything very easy.

Wouldnt be easier if people choose what to delete?Like you?

P.S. Thanks for your comments and i am not a big developer,this is a STOCK rom,from portugal like i said.

Hello me too and to resolve he problem i used normal storage (3 GB for the application) and then split storage to see my SD-Card.

This means you didn't Unify your OPPO. Download UnifiedTool.zip and unpack to C:\ put your phone into fastboot mode, make sure you have drivers installed and run Install.bat

It will take 4 - 5 minutes and after that your phone will restart automatically

Before I start to experimant with the flashing the ROMS:

No matter what I flash (extended ROM, Radio, ROM), what do I need to backup to downgrade EVERYTHING to factory defaults?

Is all I need to do is run the April/Mai AKU 2.0 Update from T-Mobile? (it was an selfexecuting app) Would that also restore the T-Mobile splash screen?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] nuclear:
You dont need to backup anything. Once you flash the factory default ROM everything will return to its original state like nothing happened ;) unless you busted your device.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpufreak3:
I have an AT&T GS4 I'm planning on taking to India this winter. I will be buying a local SIM card there to use. Will the phone work, or do I need to unlock it? From my understanding, it's carrier locked in the US to AT&T, but does that apply internationally? Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpufreak3:
Bump. Any thoughts?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NJB12:
Handset locking applies both nationally and internationally, so yes, you'll definitely need to get your phone unlocked. Also, getting a local SIM in India may not be as straightforward as you were hoping - there are some fairly tight restrictions on SIM sales to foreigners, you'll need to provide proof of address in India, fill out a Customer Application Form (CAF) and give passport and visa information. I've no idea if this is a quick process and you'll be able to walk away with a working SIM shortly after providing these, or whether you have to send them off and wait for permission to come back via post. Either way, it sounds like a bit of a pain.

If it were me, I'd consider getting a cheap unlocked handset for travelling, and/or an international roaming SIM from someone like Telestial.com. The cheap handset will give you extended battery life that may not be available for a power-hungry smartphone, and will also deter thieves. You can get a goodly amount of free credit with the SIM card and they have some very decent rates and data options.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cpufreak3:
Thanks for the help. I will unlock it before traveling. Planning on having family buy the SIM card.
[Fire TV Themes and Apps] Norcal707:
Hello, everyone!! So this is my first post. Currently, I've owned my amazon fire tv for about a week. I've installed not rooted XBMC gotham 13.2. I'm a complete newbie to say the least. Also, i've never written files or anything before this file. I noticed that allot of the information being passed around out on the internet, is for people who have some tech skills. Even-though, I haven't had any prior experience writing files, I was able to put together an advancedsettings.xml file(I was able to push it through via adbFire). I was wondering if someone could tell me if the file is accurate and if I am doing damage in anyway? Another question I have is is there a way to keep track of what you watch via add-ons and have that information show up on the home-screen so that you can just go to the next episode? Furthermore, I was looking at my free memory and it went from 520 mb to 1003mb, I don't understand why. Maybe someone can fill me whats going on with this file setting. Thanks... And I apoligize for all the questions but I think they would be valuable to other newbies, once again thank you....:good:

[Fire TV Themes and Apps] KarlP:
The <to>/storage/emulated/0/usbstorage/sda1/xbmcthumbnails/</to> can be a network drive as well. Without needing root... Put MySQL (or MariaDB) on a server and get your library on the network too. I think my library DB files were almost 3/4 of a gig.

Can you put your Library from xbmc on Amazon fire tv on MySQL without issues? and do you have to download MySQL onto another computer?

[Google Chromecast] clocinnorcal:
Tried searching everywhere for a my problem. Just bought the CC over the weekend. Brought it home, set it up and everything worked great. However, after watching a few movies via Googel cast on Chrome using the yellow video player, I noticed the screen would dim down in low light scenes and brighten back up in brighter scenes. Same scenario with Plex, Youtube, and Netflix. Anyone else have this issue?
[Google Chromecast] peca89:
That's nothing to do with Chromecast. That's your TVs "feature" called Dynamic Contrast (or similar marketing name). It is probably enabled on HDMI input you are using Chromecast on.
[Google Chromecast] njw1979:
Re: Chromecast fluctuating Brightness

I have a brand new Chromecast device and I am having brightness issues myself but think it is the fact that I have a cheap import TV. overall casting is always much darker than on my pc on all 3 HDMI ports and my TV has no Dynamic Contrast setting. It does have a dynamic color setting but all that does is add vibrance and sharpness and I leave that off as it makes movies look unnatural.

Even when I cast from my Phone or Tablet the image is darker and there are blues in the darker areas making the image beyond ugly if I turn up the brightness/contrast on my TV.

I hope I can get the cash together for a more expensive TV as I think it is the only way to get a decent image when casting. It would be good if the chromecast extension and the chromecast app had a brightness/contrast/gamma settings in their options to counteract this glitch on cheaper TV's (and cheaper than a new TV)

P.s. Sorry for necroing but this post shows that brightness issues are still happening to this day.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mumonk:
I am very new at this, so I apologize in advance. I have the Virgin Mobile Galaxy S3 SPH-L710 running 4.3.

I simply wanted to root it so i could get rid of the bloatware and install Sixaxis and play emulators, but I didn't really know where to start, so I started looking around and found this

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2546505

So I basically did everything on there. I used Odin to install PhilZ Touch 6 Recovery (CWM 6.0.4.7) Did factory reset, wiped cache/dalvik. then installed the Odexed MK5 stock rooted zip, wifi fix zip, SuperSU update zip, and then the knox app remover zip.

Everything flashed just fine and it started right up. It had the Super Su app, but when I tried to install apps that need root permission it would say I don't have root access. I couldn't delete bloat apps and Super Su didn't show any apps and there isn't much I can do with it. So I guess it didn't work? Either way I wanted to try a different rom. Was gonna give Cyanogenmod a try. But every time I try to install it I get the little "Android bot laying on his back" thing and it says status 7. I tried to flash CM10, CM10.1, CM10.2, CM11. Nothing worked, same thing every time. Even tried different SD cards just in case of a mess up.

The phone itself works fine for now, calls and text work, wifi works. And it says there is an update, but when i hit accept, it reboots to recovery mode, does the "android fallen over" then boots back up.

Now here is my stupid part, I didn't backup the original cause the guide didn't say to. (Not blaming them, i should have know better) So I am assuming I have a messed up version of 4.3 and Cyanogenmod doesn't know what to do with me. I'm not sure. Here is where I am stumped.

I can get into Download mode, I can get into Recovery and the phone boots up just fine and I can use it like a normal phone, and I have a back up my current set up, so when something fails I can still revert back to a working phone, but I can't seem to get any other roms to install. Thank you very much in advance for any help.

Hi guys,

I'm completely new to modding so bear with me. I bought a ZTE V975 from China, everything was going well until the start up screen got stuck in a loop.

I thought everything would be fine if I entered recovery mode but turns out it's all in Chinese and I've no idea how to sort it out. So any ideas what any of this stuff means and how I might sort the problem out? I assume I need to first root the device, then flash a new rom to it using the micro sd card slot?

Recovery mode looks like this,

[General Questions and Answers] MattBooth:
I'm looking to upgrade my PC. I play videogames (seemingly on the odd occasion these days) and develop on Linux for various programming languages (University work - also probably some Windows too if I have to). I'm wondering if my current build can be feasibly upgraded to lower build times with AOSP.

My current PC

Intel i5-2500k @ 4.5GHz

12GB 1600MHz DDR3 RAM

The Ubuntu root is installed on an SSD, but the home folder is installed on a mechanical HDD. The SSD is only 128GB so not enough for compiler cache (ccache) as well as the AOSP/CM source (I have both). I've been considering an upgrade to and Intel i5-4690k under the illusion it would help me lower the build time. This new CPU would necessitate a new motherboard, and I'd probably get one of the new Z97 boards with am M.2 slot, and then grab a 256GB M.2 SSD. At this point I could have the source on an ssd and perhaps speed up compiling...

Or would it? I mean, would I get maybe ten minutes off my compile time, or would the benefits be significantly greater? If it's only ten minutes, I may just not bother.
[General Questions and Answers] KkdGab:
The motherboard will definitely speed up the compiling, assuming that u already have the source downloaded, you might as well do it. But I have compared those to boards and it appears to be quite faster. So if i were u, go for it.

My phone is a huawei g510 aka U8951...And i strongly suggest never buying these models,

So anyway i was trying to put a custom recovery and every time i did that was a failure, first off tried CWM it

doesnt show the supported list of my device so i went to choose other models, doesnt work.Tried it manually put and change in system folder with recovery doesnt work.TWRP ,used the goomanager through openscript doesnt work, the app is down and not in use anymore, tried manually same thing , got a pink screen in process.Tried for ages to make this work, searched google youtube everything doesnt work, cant get rid off the 3e recovery.Am i doing something wrong? The phone is rooted, the system is corrupted(No UI, missing gapps),

I just need any custom recovery for this phone to flash a custom rom , cant do anything

Any hackers/crackers/experts etc. with tips are helpful

Thanx in adv.
