[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SK4G:
I want to build cm11 for the T-Mobile Sidekick 4g primarily for compatibility with newer apps, but before that I was told that I'd first need to build a kitkat compatible kernel. I have read on how to build kernels, apply patches, tweaks, and modules, but I haven't seen anything about what makes a kernel android version specific. I have an HTC HD2 flashed with Tytung's nexushd2 cm based roms and on his list of roms he has used his same custom kernel on both jelly bean and kitkat roms. So my questions are;

1. is there any other way to make newer apps like hangouts and stock nexus 5 dialer (because of native sip integration) compatible with older versions of android (froyo)?

2. what makes a kernel android version specific?

3. what would I have to do to make a sidekick kernel compatible with cm11?

4. would the cm guide here automatically build a cm11 compatible kernel? http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro

5. is there any way to update sidekick 4g stock rom source?

6. if I build using Google AOSP source would the rom that is built be a nexus-like rom?

I am talking about the feature where if you swipe in from the top right corner, it can shrink the window or minimize it to a small dot on the screen. Does not seem to be working for me. Is it linked to a specific service or is it an options setting to turn on?

Thanks!

It's typical Samsung style - a half-assed gimmicky feature. I have the multi window enabled, but I almost always end up pulling the notification bar. Bad implementation of the feature.

I used the toolkit to flash the stock CM image as phone is stuck at one plus one logo . Flashing the stock worked without any errors after phone rebooted it's still stuck in bootloop. Is that means phone needs RMA, I can get into fastboot and recovery ..

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ImjuzCY:
I cant wait til the ota comes out to try out lollipop. I've read some articles that it can be flashed via the "official" way a.k.a. the fastboot way but i need to wipe all data. I already have a unlocked boot loader so maybe theres a way to skip the formatting? I found an article that i can edit the fastboot flash script to not wipe my device but its noted that its not guaranteed to work. Have anyone tried this yet? Maybe just like updating roms that dont need wiping the device?

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] divadkha:
Just did the update to Lollipop dev preview from the last "L" preview without wipe (via editing out the -w from the script). Haven't had a problem doing this before, aside from having to unfreeze stock Chrome (I use Chrome Beta) and uninstalling CF.Lumen drivers. So far, it's working fine for me. However, the boot animation stayed on quite a bit longer than usual before it reached the "Android is upgrading" screen. It was on the boot animation for a good 3-5 minutes, so don't consider hard resetting it so soon.

Update: I ended up having to do the "SetupWizard" fix to restore notification pull-down functions, and possibly Google syncing related features.

http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...at-refuses-to-pull-down-after-android-update/

Good luck with the upgrade without wipe.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ImjuzCY:
Thank you for your information. But in your case its android l to android l which is not quite a huge jump. But I'm from kitkat to lollipop. Will that be any difference?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] wantabe:
You don't HAVE to wipe data before updating to a new OS version but from my personal experience I very strongly believe that wiping the data will give a more reliable update in the long term and have less chance of buggy user installed apps. One thing to think about is the fact that an OTA will NOT ever wipe data. With "minor" updates (like 4.4.3 to 4.4.4) I just fastboot flash the system image and whatever else is necessary which will keep all of the user apps installed and all the settings intact. With "major" OS updates I sometimes but not always do a factory reset from inside TWRP which will not wipe the storage then use TWRP to go into the bootloader and flash whatever from there. With the flash_all batch file modified you could flash the factory image (L preview) and have a clean install and not have your storage wiped. If you instead fastboot flash the bootloader, boot and system images separately instead of using the flash_all batch file you don't replace the custom recovery (TWRP) with the stock recovery. If you don't have a custom recovery installed and want a clean install you have no choice but to wipe everything. Save what you want from your storage to your computer. If you do have a custom recovery make a backup (nandroid) first. But... my personal opinion is that an OTA will not be as reliable as a clean install, again, not that I always do a clean install. Another thing to think about is how important is a clean install now anyway, the official 5.0 update isn't too far down the road. Do what feels comfortable for you, you have multiple choices. ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ImjuzCY:
Thanks for your detailed explanation. But I have a question. You said you sometimes do a factory reset from TWRP *which will not wipe storage*. But according to TWRP's website, factory reset means wiping everything. Isn't it? Or you mean the sdcard partition?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] wantabe:
Yes and no! Doing a factory reset from your device settings "Settings/Backup & reset" will absolutely wipe Everything on your device. If you do a factory reset from inside TWRP it will Not wipe your device storage. When you open TWRP and tap on "Wipe" the screenshot shows what you will see. Excuse the screenshot, it's hard to get the camera to focus on a shiny screen. The only way to do a factory reset/wipe data that I know of without wiping the storage is with a custom recovery. ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] ImjuzCY:
Oh! Thank you very much for the explanation. Wiping data partition means clearing all user installed apps right? If its true then I rather wait for the ota. I don't wanna waste too much time on backing up and restoring apps. Thanks anyway :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] wantabe:
Correct! Wiping the data will always remove the user installed apps. Wiping from inside your device settings or from inside TWRP will determine if your storage gets wiped. Don't forget... there is more than one way to flash a factory image, in this case the Android L preview, without wiping any data.

1. Modify the flash_all.bat that is inside the factory image with a text editor (notepad) removing the text -w. Takes like 5 seconds to modify the text.

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-flo-flo-04.04.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 >nul

fastboot -w update image-razor-lpx13d.zip

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-flo-flo-04.04.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 >nul

fastboot update image-razor-lpx13d.zip

2. Fastboot flash the bootloader, boot and system images.

Either way it takes longer for android L to boot up the first time than it does to flash the images. Just saying! :D
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Hannah Stern:
Backup it all! (Before execution of some operations that can cause data loss)

You just need to download this tool.

If your bootloader is really

un

locked, then they'll be

no problems

out there!

Make sure your Nexus Device is connected to your Computer with a MicroUSB-Cable!

But do never use a slack joint cable! They'll cause

many problems

there!

Launch the Toolkit and it should detect your Tablet!

Go to the Installation-Guide on the Main-Menu and then install the GoogleADB-Driver.

Go to the BackUp-Menu and execute a full-Android ADB-Backup

Make sure your device is connected to the Computer!

And after the backup then make sure the BackupFile is there to make sure that to avoid a Blank 0B-File or no file at all!

If you've got any questions left then ask me

anytime!

Anytime you ever want!

All the best!

U can only do it when u take the pictures with the selective focus mode only?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] p()()pypants:
Yes...

I was trying to figure out how it did this... the M8 actually has 2 lenses and takes a literal 3D shot and allows you to do a real focus after the fact...

Then I toggled between a couple shots where background elements were slightly moving and realized it actually takes two separate photos, one in the focus of your up close subject and one basically at infinity, then it blends the two using some quick software and transposes one image over the other and adds some bokah effect. It's actually pretty awesome how effective it is at doing this accurately, but take enough shots, especially selfies using this effect, you'll realize the short comings.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zzcool:
Soo where should i start, i've had my z1 since it was released oevr a year it's been through alot and it has alot of memories, i've taken it too the sea and in pool water on my vacation in thailand some months ago, it took alot of abuse back there and it emerged victorious.

Anyway every friday i clean my phone, a month ago or so i used too warm water it seems, the glass lifted due to this as i could feel my finger getting stabbed by the glass when moving from the side the waterproofing remained fine ever since untill today.

Today i did it again all flaps sealed tightly (i never open them as i have a dock) etc when done cleaning it using soup (i always use a little soup) i put it on a tshirt to dry, anyway a few hours later i tried turning it on it was entirely dead, so i put it in the charger tried turning it on again it made 3 quick vibrates showed the sony logo (the screen is completely undamaged) and then proceeded to die and go back to the battery status screen.

I was told by sony it might be a software fault i was unsure, a few hours later i saw that the camera lens was clouded it still is which confirms water damage, it can't be much though as the screen works perfectly fine and the phone charges.

So what should i do? i've put it in a sealed container of rice but i assume theres no use as this phone is waterproof meaning no water can escape from anywhere it's pointless now when i think about it, i plan on taking it to a repairshop and getting it repaired chances are the damage is highly minimal, atleast from my guess considering theres no visible damage apart from the clouded lens.

This phone means everything too me so i am not afraid to pay alot to have it repaired, it's worth more too me now than when it was brand new due to all the memories it has, anyway any advise on what i should do now? i am starting to realize that putting it in rice was pointless as theres no way for water to escape perhaps through the flaps as i've opened them.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zzcool:
so i tried turning it on today and it worked camera works fine everything works fine however it did random double vibrates and once it entered my "night view mode" indicating that it was put in the dock when it wasn't so i will put it back in the rice untill maybe monday

Hi all

I have been using my Orbit for about 2 weeks now and the 512mb card is beginning to look a little small, especially if I want to start putting some MP3s on it.

If I buy a larger card, say 2gig, can I simply copy the contents from the old one to the new one or will i need to re-install everything again?

Thanks for your help

Richard
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] towelie:
Hi Richard,

You can just copy all the data over and it should work no worries.

I would suggest you do this in your pc because you will haveto replace the memory card in the phone, and when you boot the phone it might crash as nothing will be on it.

The best idea would be to turn the phone off, remove the memory card, copy everything on it to a folder on your pc, then put your new card in the pc, copy it all back onto that and then finally put the card back in your phone and boot it.

This worked fine for me, but you will need to have a card reader in your pc to read the sd card, and you will also need an adapter for the microsd card to go into (microSD -> SD adapter). If you are buying a new microSD card they usually have this with them.

If it fails you can just put your old card back in to recover.

Cheers, Towelie.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] richiev4:
Thanks Towelie

The thing is that n8000 was not very good from the start, screen was not god at all, processor was good but not that much, battery was meh, plastic body was cheap as it gets. There is not much to do about the note 2014 though; pro tabs came up this year as the premium option for the tablet line and they are almost the same as our beloved tablet, only with amoled display. Maybe an amoled display instead of normal lcd, maybe 64 processor, and i find it difficult they will improve the pen technology; these are the only things i find possible to improve(apart from touchwiz of course).
