Question just out of curiosity when you dial the 06 code you do not get the 15 digit code?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skipjacks:
I run AOSP roms. They don't use those codes. So I can't test that.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronny06:
[MENTION=4830053]MAX 404[/MENTION]

When I dial 06 code I see unknow application.

When I dial *#06# I see "IMEI /01"
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAX 404:
Hi

Skipjacks , i meant the question to ronny06 anyhow thanks for the info ,is useful, did not know that happen in AOSP roms

ronny06 as Skipjacks said , if is working do not touch it ....are you in stock rom?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronny06:
I want to sell my phone and I cannot sell it with this problem.

Now I'm in stock ROM
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAX 404:
Hi,

It has been always like this?

The only thing i can think of is to reflash a stock rom ( odin) and see if it helps, maybe is firmware related , BEFORE you do make sure you have a copy of your EFS folder
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronny06:
The problem was then I installed new 4.4.2.

I tried to install another stock rom but without success.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MAX 404:
Why ? what is the problem,,,

You can only install 4.4.2 rom not older .
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skipjacks:
Put another SIM card in it. See if it works. If it does, then sell it with confidence. (I bet it would work)

Past that what you are asking for now is how to change the IMEI, even if you are asking how to change it to the actual IMEI. It's the same steps as changing it to a stolen IMEI so we do not discuss that on XDA.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronny06:
It is not true. I do not want to change imei of my phone. I know very well that it is illegal!

I only want to solve the problem of IMEI / 01 because it does not seem right to me to sell with this issue.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skipjacks:
I will say this again....if you want to change it from UNKNOWN to a number, then that is changing it. Even if you are using a legitimate IMEI for the phone. The procedure to do that is the same procedure that is used for illegally changing it from a bad IMEI to a working IMEI from a donor phone.

I don't believe you are trying to do anything illegal, but the process to do what you are asking is the same process as doing it for illegal reasons. Therefor, we don't discuss it here.

Again though, your phone isn't broken. It's working fine. So you should be able to sell it without issue. You can confirm it's sellable by putting the buyer's sim card in the phone to test it for a connection to a tower. If it works, it's a good phone.

Also stop looking up the IMEI with the 06 code.

Look in SETTING -> ABOUT PHONE -> STATUS

That should show your IMEI there. If it shows it there, then stop worrying about it. It's just the text code that's being goofy, not the actual IMEI.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] knewbee4lyfe:
First and foremost I'd like to thank all the developers on working so hard on giving us amazing ROMs

I'm not going to ask which is best. That's like kicking myself in the testes. But... I have searched a few. Watched reviews . kinda did my hw.

But can anyone suggest a ROM close to stock, least issues, has the multi window function working for all apps. Better tweaks. Overally... What the touch wiz was throttled back for.

I'm currently on dirty unicorn, tried jelly bomb and ooooh man... I wanted the jedi x20 soooo bad. But they didn't port it to sprint. Just everyone else. I did hear someone had a sprint fix to it. But I couldn't find it. Nor can I really trust it.

But I'd love to play with the Jedi if possible.

Main problem is that since the sprint galaxy note 2's lifetime is nearly up. Half the developers have abandoned it for the note 3. The other half is completely giving up on it as soon as the note 4 comes out. Hence recently updated request. So... If anyone can suggest a few good ROMS, ILL CHECK THEM ALL OUT! But since there are so many, and half are just dead. I'd like live suggestions. Please.

If anyone knows how to get the Jedi x20 into sprint note 2 I'd be most appreciative.

but basically, what I'm looking for is, updated tether, better camera features... adjustable camera shutter sound. better GPS, (i believe theres a tom tom setup somewhere out there) Viper. etc... but it has to be sprint. and very minimal issues.

Thank you in advance.

Only three devs left working on tw. Chaz, rwilco, and me. Look at the op's and change logs. It will give you a run down on features. Usually the last few pages will let you know of issues people are having.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] knewbee4lyfe:
Thank you... I'll look into them.

Is there any 4.4 stable ROMs? Or you know about the Jedi x20 ported for sprint?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
All our current roms are 4.4.2 while I use the old naming scheme of alpha, beta, and release dont think of them as unstable.

Now porting a differnt n2 rom to sprint is not an easy process. Dont look for anyone to take the massive amount of time required to make it happen. Closest thing here to jedi would be the s5 feat I ported from verizon.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] fernando.j.leonard:
Odin will not load on Samsung galaxy note 2 l900

I really need some help from people much smarter with me.

I am trying to root my phone and for some reason I can no longer get TWRP to load on my phone using any version of odin. I have tried v1.83 1.85 and like 3 others and every time I restart the phone it just loads the stock Sprint operating system. I had the phone rooted about a year ago but set it back to factory and since then can't seem to root it again. Can anyone assist please.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] knewbee4lyfe:
First of all... Your posting on a thread this belongs to a new thread. This really has nothing to do with the subject post.

Secondly to help u out. Use philz recovery. Your welcome.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] knewbee4lyfe:
What are their TW ROMs called? I checked yours out. And you have like 2... One isn't touch whiz. But I like the pie.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] jlmancuso:
I have 2? I will leave that one and you to have a good time.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] knewbee4lyfe:
hahaha... or you were responding quite frequently to 2 of them. i guess. ill double check it again. thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] knewbee4lyfe:
so... i saw rwilco's personal rom ported to the note2 but it seems like its still full of bugs.

basically I think that would be cool. something like that.

features I want again...

touchwhiz

vvm

unlocked multi window for all apps

usb/hotspot unlock

basically most of what rwilco has but actually working

it would be nice if it had something like

s5 features

viper4android

I don't know enough about this to actually make changes to its system itself. i feel its like going into the regedit in a windows OS. soooo scary.

I know you may know more about what is actually featured in most these roms since you are a mod. (or at least you have mod like qualities) and I would appreciate just 2 or maybe 3 suggestions into who might have something like most of what I like. and stable! lol

im testing the pacman nightlies but they don't have a listing of what they offer in it. for all i know. its not a tw program so I don't get the vvm mulitwindow and stuff like that.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dot Merix:
Hi -

I recently installed Cyanogenmod 11 on my Nexus 5 and many of my video playbacks are either crashing out to a black screen, however often I am finding a green flicker on video's.

I have tried using a few different video applications (avia, mxplayer, and the stock video player) with similar issues. When it goes black, I can hear the sound but no video.

Is this an issue with CM? Are there currently any work arounds if it is?

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
Why not ask in the Rom thread? Or read the last few pages of the thread....If it's an issue, it would be being discussed.

I'm considering buying this powerbank:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BQ5KHJW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A294P4X9EWVXLJ

Many people recommend Anker but what about this model? I plan to use this not every day but for short weekend trips. My father plans to use this for his Sony Xperia Z Ultra.

I hear good things about Ravpower and Xioami (though you have to make sure they're the genuine kind).

Any thoughts?
[ONE Accessories] jmp485:
I've become a bit of an Anker zealot lately and have bought batteries, a mouse, a keyboard and a bluetooth speaker from them. All work incredibly well and easy way beyond what the price suggests (sort of like the OPO).

As for the batteries I have the Astro slim 4500 and the 10k mAh bank and both work as advertised. The capacity on them seems to be lower if you're filling from empty (probably heat related) so if I NEED the batteries to stretch a short camping trip I'll try to do more topping off as time allows.
[ONE Accessories] tonu42:
I love my http://www.amazon.com/Jackery®-Bar-...8&qid=1412378909&sr=1-2&keywords=jackery+5600

I showed it to a friend who also bought the exact some one. Great size and fast charging with pass through.
[ONE Accessories] blaze0303:
I use this exact same one, I love it because they offer 3A charging, large mah and fair prices. Very hard to beat.
[ONE Accessories] osmosizzz:
It depends what you're looking for. The way physics works, you won't get the whole advertised mAh. You'll only get about 70% of it (rest is lost as heat) given that, a 10,000mah battery pack will only provide 7000 to charge which will only charge the one plus from 0-100% twice ONLY if you're charging the phone which while it's off. I'm looking at getting one that will harte the phone 3 times and that also has a a % indication on the battery pack. I've only found one for 15000mah and has the LED % indicator

[ONE Accessories] _Beni_:
OnePlus one and AutoPowerON feature seems to be not compatible.

Consider to buy one without AutoPowerOn on plug.
[ONE Accessories] kouss77550:
Actually, the OnePlus has a good battery life, and you surely can make it run for 2 days easily with only messaging and internet. Though, I think a 10k mAh should be more than enough for a couple of days. I actually have a 2000 mAh battery only in case when I'm out of home for more than 24h but I've never used it. I'm also using the power Quick Tile and I think with the "energy saving mode" enabled you can last one and a half day easily

Sorry for my approximative english, cheers !

Hey guys, my wife had a little accident with her phone and now the screen is in need of a replacement. I made a couple of calls and I'm getting crazy quotes to replace it. Does anyone in the USA have a recommendation where I can get this cheaper than replacing the phone? Thanks in advance
[Nokia Lumia 920] dxdy:
1. dont buy cheap replacement screens... buy original Nokia... many people had problems after use cheap Chinese screens replacements... look on Amazon for original Nokia screens

2. also amateur and bad job can cause problems. take phone and screen to official Nokia service...

sometimes cheaper is much more expensive in the end
[Nokia Lumia 920] mobi:
Thanks for that dxdy. Unfortunately, Nokia will charge more for it than it will cost for a factory refurbished phone so that's not going to work.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bucks5:
Hi all,

First post, hoping someone might be able to assist. I just received my international LG G2 and the wifi range is horrible. I have to be practically in the same room as the router to get a wifi signal. This is not an issue with any of the many other devices that we use around the house to connect including variius other samasung mobile phones and apple mobile phones or various tablets, laptops and game consoles.

Are there any settings I could try or is this most likely a faulty wifi adapter and will have to send back to the seller? I use wifi extensively so if this can not be rectified I can't/won't keep the phone.

Is this a common issue? Has anybody else encountered this?

Thanks

Which one will you prefer & why.

2) which phone will u prefer which i an buy under Rs 20,000.﻿

thank you

[Galaxy Grand 2 General] doda2007:

[Galaxy Grand 2 General] WaseemAlkurdi:
The Grand 2 is a good device, as in product quality.

Performance of the Xolo is WAY better, but the MediaTek is not as reliable as the Grand 2's Qualcomm.

If you want reliability, go for the Grand 2.

If you want performance, use the Xolo.

I usually don't take pictures with flash, but today I noticed that the flash doesn't work properly in the camera app. When I try to take a picture, the the flash lights up while the camera is focusing, but when the actual picture is being taken it remains off, resulting into a very dark picture.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtk19:
Why isn't it possible to port a rom from galaxy s5 to the nexus 4 or the g3 rom or things like that? All the roms are awesome but they are still the same look and everything only with extra options and features.. i'll be love to try something different if it is possible and if there is such ported rom of touchwiz or something like that can someone please share it with me?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tanmaynarang:
It is possible, it'd just take a long time and no dev who knows how to do so has done those specific roms.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The hardware in the phones are different which means different drivers, bootloaders, system images, recoveries, etc.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtk19:
So it is possible but it just hard?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
It is hard to port Samsung's Touchwiz to other phones because Touchwiz requires a Samsung kernel and a bug-free kernel may not be possible. Same goes for the lg ROM.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtk19:
So we can use the ported launcher from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2773621
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Sometimes, you can get your ROM to visually resemble Touchwiz by using custom launcher such as Nov and applying Nova-compatible themes. Theming is good but not always a perfect replica of the original interface.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rtk19:
So there's no hope?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
I doubt it. The developer would also need source code, preferably the original phone, and nexus 4.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Zteam-:
Just install CyanogenMod 11 on your device and apply this theme:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thomassafca.theme.touchwiz&hl=en

And this launcher:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.epic.launcher.tw&hl=en

Also you can look for some touchwiz or LG apps here

Hello guys i am in need of advice,

I'm a note 3 owner, i flashed my phone and rooted it from 4.2.2 and now im using a S5 ported rom.

Although it's a good rom i hate the menu's and i just really want the note 3 settings menu back, basicly i want the old KK back that was made for the note 3.

The problem is: i am constantly searching for a good rom that has download booster and the new battery saver added into it. i'm constantly searching throughout the forum but i just can't find the right one.

Which ones are you guys using on your note 3 with which kernel and do you maybe have an idea on which rom has these things beside a s5 ported rom?

Thanks in advance :good: :laugh:

Hi

I have XBMC in Madcatz MOJO but I have a problem.

In 13.2 Gothan and 14.0 KODI, MOJO can play smooth every MKV´s video (720p and 1080p), even 20 GB files. But it have frameskipping with SD AVI´s videos about 1 GB.

I don´t understand it.

If I install Beyond XBMC 3.4 (based 12.3 Frodo), then SD videos (AVI´s) works perfecty, but HD videos (MKV´s) doesn´t work.

Which XBMC version is the best on MOJO?
[M.O.J.O. General] gwaldo:
Sorry I dont use XBMC, better ask the ouya or shield forums, as I guess the issue would be the same ?

the SD issue could be slow media, maybe it buffs more in the older version, maybe look at your buffer settings?

Good luck.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mostafa.Alaa:
Hi everyone, I didn't find a full guide for unpacking & repacking new kernel.elf, they were somehow out-dated.

so I'm here to share with you my knowledge.

First Post : Unpack kernel

Second Post : Unpack ramdisk

Third Post : Repack ramdisk

Fourth Post : Repack kernel

1st : Requirements​

1) the kernel you want to unpack

2) 7z -->

sudo apt-get install p7zip

2nd : procedure​

lets assume our working directory is "~/kernel" and the kernels name is "kernel.elf".

now open terminal and write down the following code.

mkdir ~/kernel
cp /path/to/file ~/kernel/kernel.elf
cd ~/kernel
7z e kernel.elf

now you will get 0, 1, 2, 3.

0 --> zImage

1 --> ramdisk

2 --> cmdline

3 --> cert

mv 0 kernel.elf-zImage
mv 1 kernel.elf-ramdisk.gz
mv 2 kernel.elf-cmdline
mv 3 kernel.elf-cert

now you have successfully unpacked the kernel.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mostafa.Alaa:
[B]Second Post : Unpack ramdisk[/B]

1st : Requirements​

1) the ramdisk we got from the first post.

2) file -->

sudo apt-get install file

3) most probably gzip -->

sudo apt-get install gzip

2nd : procedure​

file -b kernel.elf-ramdisk.gz

most probably you will get "gzip compressed data".

if not read the notes at the end of this post then resume reading.

gzip -dk kernel.elf-ramdisk.gz

now you will get cpio archive "kernel.elf-ramdisk".

mkdir ramdisk
mv kernel.elf-ramdisk ramdisk
cd ramdisk
cpio -i < kernel.elf-ramdisk
rm kernel.elf-ramdisk
cd ..

now you successfully extracted the ramdisk.

3rd : notes​

it seems your ramdisk isn't gzip compressed.

if you got "LZMA compressed data" from file command

then it is "lzma" compressed

lzma -->

sudo apt-get install xz-utils

to uncompress use

mv kernel.elf-ramdisk.gz kernel.elf-ramdisk.lzma
xz -dk kernel.elf-ramdisk.lzma

now you chould resume unpacking process.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mostafa.Alaa:
Third Post : repack ramdisk

1st : Requirements​

1) the ramdisk folder we extracted from second post.

2) cpio

3) the tool we used for unpacking ramdisk (gzip) (check notes for other compression types)

2nd : procedure​

cd ramdisk
find|cpio -o -H newc|gzip >../kernel.elf-new_ramdisk.gz
cd ..

now you successfully repacked the ramdisk.

3rd : notes​

well it is recommended to repack the ramdisk with the original ramdisk format

because other formats maybe not supported

but no problem trying other formats as long as they are supported

for lzma :

cd ramdisk
find|cpio -o -H newc|xz --format=lzma >../kernel.elf-new_ramdisk.lzma
cd ..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mostafa.Alaa:
Fourth Post : repack kernel

1st : Requirements​

1) the files we unpacked from the kernel from first post (zImage, cmdline, we won't be needing the extracted cert).

2) the ramdisk folder we repacked from third post.

3) the original kernel.elf for injecting cert.

4) mkelf.py Sony's or Doomlord's

github.com/sonyxperiadev/device-sony-lt26/blob/master/tools/mkelf.py

github.com/DooMLoRD/build_tools/blob/master/bin/mkelf.py

2nd : procedure​

now we gonna repack kernel.elf (without cert yet).

mkelf.py -o kernel.elf-new kernel.elf-zImage@0x00008000 ramdisk.gz@0x01000000,ramdisk kernel.elf-cmdline@cmdline

now comes the tricky part.

printf "\x04"|dd of=kernel.elf-new bs=1 seek=44 count=1 conv=notrunc 2>/dev/null
dd if=kernel.elf of=kernel.elf-dumped_cert bs=1 skip=148 count=1106 2>/dev/null
cat kernel.elf-dumped_cert|dd of=kernel.elf-new bs=1 seek=148 count=1106 conv=notrunc 2>/dev/null
rm kernel.elf-dumped_cert

now you successfully repacked the kernel :D.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Hukanawa:
Hi, would this method work on the Xperia GO? Would I have to change the command line arguments in order for it to work for my Xperia GO?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mostafa.Alaa:
It would be great if you linked me to the kernel you want to unpack/repack.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mostafa.Alaa:
Should work for Xperia GO

I grabbed the kernel "in CM11 weekly 20 for Xperia GO by XperiaSTE Team", and found the kernel structure is similar to Xperia P/U.

So yeah this guide should work for Xperia GO.

I hope this was helpful.

Very nice and helpful guide. :)

Worked for ARM64 kernel.elf also.
