Astraman, I don't think you are getting the point of all this. We all know that the roms will have bugs. The problem is that any rom as of AK3 is not and will not come for the Universal. Not now and not ever.

The only way there is to get a better OS on you Universal is by having various individuals such as Helmi. Midget and Indra to work with whatever they have from the base WM6 rom, and to constantly improve upons this until the rom is solid and usable. We, the users, provide them with feedback on the bugs and I bow in awe for everyone's efforts in all of this.

Anyway, these quirks and bugs are what I myself and many others accept. We install the rom, and signal back what works and what does not work.

If you don't accept this, then don't upgrade, stick to the original releases and wait until something comes out that works well enough to venture into "unsupported territory".

I for one do not miss the Video calling though, my Media Player (PDAVIET ROM) works fine, and for my purpose it is more than stable enough.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] vijay555:
lol Astraman, no one made anyone use the roms.

We expressly did not want the roms released, and no one ever made any promises about the roms... come on. You're using a questionably aquired, illegally distributed, incomplete, pre-release rom on an unauthorised device, and you're surprised it has issues?

​

The roms aren't running on a final device in a final form. You are doing the right thing by waiting and using a proper rom that you're supposed to use.

DO NOT USE CROSSBOW

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] astraman:
OK guys....i just have one point of view from this post....why a develpoer add a ROM to the forum which has bugs....for example...all the CrossBow ROMs has no Video Calling but no one of the developer mention that...also the Media Player is not working....so what i mean why do not you wait until you fix these bugs first....and you know that a lot of people are waiting for any new ROM to flash....i do appreciate you jobs...but we have to go step by step...there are alot of ONLY USERS her and we do not want them to miss with there devices.....keep the good work guys...regards

Maybe this quote from the the front page of this site will enlighten you a bit...

Back on topic..... I think vijay's reply here just about sums it.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] captainsensible2002:
astraman, the release of crossbow for the universal will never be official and as such, should only ever be considered a beta or work in progress. When microsoft releases beta versions of software for testing, they expect people to find bugs - why should the WM6 roms for the universal, being developed by a small number of people, in a VERY unofficial capacity be any different?

What you'll find here is maybe some concensus on aspects that don't work correctly, also some concensus on what fixes can be used to make some of those aspects work better (which may then be incorporated into future releases). You may, if you're lucky and know what you're doing, end up with a rom that is stable and works (mostly) in the way you wish.

What you WON'T get is a guarantee that things will be perfect, and that goes for any cooked rom, not just the WM6 ones. As such, you should consider your viewpoint again, and maybe ask yourself whether you should be playing with roms that are not necessarily going to do what you want them to do 'out of the box'.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] hanmin:
Considered that you done the following,

(a) paid a lot of $$ for a Microsoft Windows that are full of bugs

(b) paid nothing for a hardwork of the others

(c) complained like a baby for buggy ROMs

Action (b) is a very smart move for a crying baby like you.

Good question, why don't you wait until the official release for your phone (which I don't think is to be bug free) then? Oh yeah, did any of the developers point a gun on your head to try it out, huh? :mad:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] CWKJ:
@Astra

My 1st guess is you are not very technical person.

Well, for the start, the 2 official ROMs from my phone maker are full of bugs too.

Many of the bugs of those ROMs done by the forumers here are not introduce by them, it is inherit from the ROM which they have got from the "SOURCE", normally the latest test version release by M$ for its supplier of hardwares. The developers here has no source code, but only binarys to work on and playing around with parameters that they or we can work on to remove some removal bugs and improvements.

In all, my honest opinion is that all the ROMs (official & unofficial) have different bugs. And I personally find that the unofficial ROMs seems to be better. (maybe it is the wife & mistress mentality, LOL)

And I can bet that M$ is watching this site and other sites, and improve on their work.

Lastly, Hanmin is right, nobody uses gun here. The people with the brains put up the ROMs, we have also to use our brain to think if we want to use it. Even if you think your brain make a wrong decision, the ROM upgrade is reversible, you can always use your brain to decide to switch back to whatever you like.

My 0.2 cents worth of input using 0.2% of my brain.

Guys...i am just comparing ROMs posted here....WM5 vs WM6

i am using Indra 3.3 Beta6 now....very stable...work very good for me

then suddenly every one is talking about WM6....alot of bugs...REAL BUGS...we can say that essentially function are not working....so why is the hurry...as i said before i do appreciate the work of the people here....and there is alot of good cooked ROMs here.....why don't we keep working on the good WM5 ROMs until we get the best from before we think about WM6....we don't have any advantage switching to WM6....just the apperance....nothing else....we can do as we did in WM5 to reach the apperance of WM6 using the good ROMs of WM5 we have here.

i don't want any one to be made of me.......

we are disscussing here.....just tell me one single advantage of WM6 vs WM5

i just want to know...i am learning from you guys....NO HARD FEELINGS
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] sruthika:
Astraman,

Its just personal choice. I flashed my device with Midget's vanilla ROM, the PDAVIET ROM and now on PDA VEIT final ROM. I found all the 3 to be stable. Not even once has my device hanged.

So its all personal choice. If it works for you, keep it. Otherwise, go for a ROM that works for you
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] vijay555:
Guys. Be nice now, it wasn't fair to pick on astraman...

Much of the stuff we do on this website is fairly dodgy, risky or cutting edge.

No one forces you to do it anything here, but to quote a post by Sleuth255,

Guys put their expensive devices at risk for the betterment of this brother/sisterhood. You don't have to follow... but you reap the rewards for their efforts.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] nuclear:
My device has never been bricked although i have been through a lot of problems with the help of a few people on this forum.

Regarding Crossbow ROM's they are still unstable and I agree with Vijay that they should not be used yet.

1. They might brick your device.

2. They might brick your SD Card as you have seen before with me.

Stick to the WM5 ROM's. I find that Ivan's AKU 3.5 is the best in WM5 series. He has done a couple of public and developer tests and I fully credit him with making the best WM5 ROM.

Thanks Ivan once again!

And astraman take a chill pill. There are too many noobs on the forum who will "pick" on you/me/others. A suggested thing to do is "ignore" them.

As for AlanJC I remember him being a better person, different character. Now he is just too awkward, I dont feel the real AlanJC's presence on the forum anymore. Its like someone else is pretending to be AlanJC. Like I used to look forward to AlanJC's enlighting posts in the past but nowadays I fear to see his posts.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] astraman:
Thanks man for your good way of disscution....this is what i was seeking from my post....brain stoarming......i am really satisfied with Indra 3.3 Beta6...he has done a very good job.....THANKS INDRA......i think with a little tweaks for this ROM we can get the same apperance ( good looking )of WM6 but with the good functionality of WM5.....

thanks everyone

Well I love AlanJC (platonically, of course) who pretty much echos exactly what I'm thinking as I go through this forum. Saves me from posting a lot of my own little brain-dumps too. Alan, keep it up!

Basically, the answer to the original question is no we don't need a faser device with no functionality, but the bugs in a very unofficial WM6 will only be ironed out with the help of testers. If you're here to help out with the development of a new, more cutting edge OS, try out the WM6 ROM's and give your feedback so that the whole experience can be enhanced.

If you're here to look for a stable ROM, then stick to the tried and tested WM5 ROM's and give feedback on your experiences with those, it can only help to make those even better...
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZillaGreen:
Hello fellow Sony "lovers"! :)

I have a simple (but hard to explain) problem.

The problem is, when i use the Xperia Z2 sometimes it produces strange "clicking/ cracking" sounds. I didnt know what cause it (and i still dont know exactly), but i went to "explore" and found out its doing that sound if you try to "twist" the phone. Yeah, i know you shouldnt be twisting your phone, but if you just do the thing people started to do with bend tests (grab it at the top and bottom, and start twisting/ pushing), you dont even have to use much force, it starts to click immediately... Does anyone have similar problems? I mean, i was looking at it, it doesnt have any gaps, scratches... Nothing. It looks flawless so i would just like to know whats causing it and should it be serviced/ replaced...

Thanks!
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
Its probably a loose part

It shouldent be anything too bad but if the vibrator stops working then atleast that gives you a better reason to service

ive had a botched attempt at updating the firmware and installing venomone.

i tried installing these via the all in one kit but it didnt work, it had me try relocking my bootloader and still didnt work.

so now im stuck with a relocked bootloader, and cant figure out how to get back to stock =/

Ditch the toolkit, brother. It has been a point of failure in itself for at least a few folks, so better to just remove it from the equation and flash things manually by adb/fastboot.

yeah very likely a good idea. i ended up manually flashing it and it seemed to have actually worked.

i finally managed to get venomone to work

for some reason every time i wipe (either in twrp and or in aroma ) it wont work correctly,

but i dirty flashed it over the failed attempt (with wipe) and it works for some reason :eek: weird
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
I never wipe in AROMA. Might just be an old habit from One X (EVITA) days (where AROMA wipes caused some major problems) and those bugs might not exist on this phone. But wipes in TWRP have never caused issues for me.

Make sure you are on the latest TWRP. Maybe wipe cache in fastboot and re-install TWRP to see if its just not a faulty TWRP install.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] The_Zodiac:
I ended up figuring out what the problem was, one of the apps I was removing was causing the problem.

After I didn't select the "remove apps" option it booted no problem

Hi all,

so me and a friend got our t-mobile Samsung Note 3 within a week of each-other at the same T-mobile store about 8 months ago, so just the other day we were siting around and ran Antunto to see how our phones would ring up, we both have stock phones, he ran 36??? on Antutu and I got 42742, so we started to look at our specs and he has an Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8974 and I had a Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8974AB even our dpi are different he has I think 340 and I have 480 dpi...

Any info on this would be appreciated.

Thanks

Did you guys have the same version of Antutu?

Yes Antutu 5, but even other benchmarks there always was at least a 10 to 12% difference...

The Note 3 uses and Snapdragon 800 - 8974AA SOC

I agree

Don't think im complaining, Sh*&t , I love my phone its fast and vibrant, was just wondering if any one had this happen to them...I feel bad is for my friend who thinks his phone sucks...

but even the screen ppi of 480 is above norm....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] siralsmooth:
480 is stock DPI. I use app settings to maximize real estate on my screen, usually end up using 400/420 DPI myself so it doesn't look like something a 3yr old would use. As for the antutu, installed apps, and apps running in the background, and time since last reboot all contribute to your overall score. Even having a case that restricts heat dissipation will cause you to hit the thermal throttle easier as well.

BTW, same model number with the ab and DPI on my device, 44053 over here.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] Mattheus100:
Good day guys, I need some help. I've got a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition (SM-P601)

I am from South Africa, which means that most of the times we don't get updates as it comes out. So what I did is that I flashed a stock Android version onto my tab. I got the firmware from Sammobile, but this is India's version that I downloaded.

The details for the version I have on my tab now is: (This is the flashed KK version)

PDA: P601XXUCND6

CSC: P601ODDCND6

MODEM: P601DDUCNB3

The version that was installed before the update is:

PDA: P601XXUBMJB

CSC: P601OJVBMK1

MODEM: P601XXUBMJ8

Everything is fine, except for the fact that my Google Play doesn't want to work anymore since I updated. Is there any way that I can revert back to JB or just fix the Google Play issue? If needed, I will root the device, but then I will need some help probably.

Just some more details. I updated with Odin 3.0.9. So, when I saw that Google Play doesn't want to work, I tried to install the previous version again through Odin, but it keeps on failing.

Can someone please help me?

A Google Play error after flashing means, that there's currently an outdated version installed. It should then auto-update invisibly and soon.

Google Play Services errors mean, that most Google stuff incl Play is inoperable. Just yesterday I read about the cure as mentioned in the post before.

Play Services Errors happened to me after flashing, with formatting the system partition before. Which I considered a FAIL until yesterday. Is the play services issue the only one in such a case? Then the method would be fine to clean up a bit.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] katsrevenge:
Hello,

I have an Asus Memo 10 tablet. It is completely stock, not rooted or anything. It's used mostly to play video games (Sims and Majong) and to read comic books through the Marvel app. We have two user profiles on it, mine (owner) and a user B. I mention this in case it is important.

Last night I noticed that the tablet was extremely hot. It even smelled a bit odd, like hot plastic. It had been used to read comic books before this. I'm pretty sure B ran the battery all the way down; he said that it had shut itself off. After I plugged it in (while still very hot) a screen popped up, it had no battery power and then it actually turned itself off and cooled right off. It charged fine and seems to be holding a charge/working fine. There is no more smell.

We charge it with the charger it came with and we don't let it overcharge.

What happened? Is it going to happen again? Is the battery going?

Hi guys !

First sorry for my poor english !

I bought a HTC One M7 on Ebay in France. I knew that it was bricked. I said to me : thanks to XDA-DEV, no problems.

One week later, the phone was at home. I began to search what's the problem, I can go in fastboot and recovery (TWRP).

I tried to flash ROM, no one works. "ADB DEVICES" doesn't work in fastboot but work in recovery. Other ADB and FASTBOOT command seems to work in fastboot.

OH ! This a sprint HTC One, hope can use it in France !

Try ViperOne ROM : work but stay on locked screen and when I try to unlock I got white page with green HTC logo.

I tried a lot of things : Format data partition, RUU ...

I realized too that thre is no baseband (see before) so I think I need to S-Off the phone and flash firmware but is there any problem to S-Off the phone without a functionnaly ROM ? Actually, there is a SPRINT HTC ONE ROM (m7wls_Stock_Rooted_5.03.651.3_DeOdex_Full) which work like ViperOne ROM. The other problem is HBOOT 1.57 .

I just need an idea to make phone back to life. Someone got one ?

Thank you to read me.
