Run it twice and it will downgrade to the 1.xx on both ipl and spl. I did this yesterday. if your going up to the 3.3 eventually make sure you flash to a 2.XX before going full fledged 3.3. I thought I bricked my **** yesterday too, but luckily with the help of a few nice people on here, i got it worked out.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hksmr2:
Hi,

I ran it 3 times with no luck. I don't know what I'm missing the IPL is at 1.01 but the SPL is still 2.26. Now when I ran Lokiwiz 2b for the Super CID unlock I get error message, file too big. Help. This is driving me nuts
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] eightysixfilms:
try reflashing the 1.xx twice, then doing lokiwiz, are you using the right lokiwiz? I'm no pro, but maybe that will help?

and did you copy the enablerapi file?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] hksmr2:
which lokiwiz version u are using I used 2b and 3
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] eightysixfilms:
I used 2b, did you copy enablerapi?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] productof82:
I emailed Carved to see if they'd be producing cases for the Nexus 6 since they currently make cases for the N5 and this is what I got back:

"We are continuing to add new products to the Nexus line. Please keep checking our site for updates!"

That sounds like a yes to me! Not sure how many people like/use these cases but their N5 cases look great in person. I got a buddy with a cedar case for his N5 and it's great looking plus feels good in the hand. They're wooden backed with a snap on hard plastic rubber edge and you can choose from a variety of design/wood types. They're not the most durable cases but if you're into cases that are borderline art, these are for you. I can't post links yet, this is actually my first post, but if you visit carved.com and click 'shop' you'll see a link to their current N5 case selection.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] sailindawg:
Sweet cases! How bulky are they? Is hard to tell from the pictures on their site.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] productof82:
They're pretty low profile. I didn't have another N5 case to compare it to but the carved case didn't add a lot of extra bulk.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] EniGmA1987:
I have never heard of these cases before, but now I must have one. I really hope they add the Nexus 6 to their line.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] lensgrabber:
Oh very nice! I'll get bamboo on my N6 after all. and they take bitcoin!!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] nathanotis:
That huge phone with a real wood back, or one of those puzzles... Sweet. I'm glad I swung in here today and found out about Carved.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] kusuriurikun:
Of a particularly relevant note here--they apparently do base what phones they offer cases for based on user demand, so it's actually kind of important to leave them a comment at http://www.carved.com/contact-us explaining why it would be a Good Idea to make a case for the Nexus 6. (One thing I did note to them is that--with a difference in scale, of course--the same template would be usable on the Moto X 2nd Gen AND the new Droid Turbo as pretty much all the Motorola phones are on the same rough body build. It does help in my case that I've built tooled leather cases for non-phone stuff, so I do kind of know what is involved in making a good case design. :D)
[Nexus 6 Accessories] nathanotis:
I did that as well... I plan to have my wife leave something, too. They sent me a $1 off coupon for my interest.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] pychobj2001:
E-mail sent

and a facebook post also on the facebook fan page! I want an Ironside full wood case..that would be so awesome! love their work! their art! the skateboard one and the live ones also look cool...the ebony ones too..the full ones..i don't want no inlay one...i want that full wood look!! ha...yeah...love the art!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] GCahill:
I've never been one to use cases on my phones but these are really nice. I've been intrigued about these wood finishes since I've seen the bamboo back option for the Moto X. Might have to pick one of these up. I'll shoot them an email to help them gauge demand.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] iomthd:
looks like it may not be happening right away...
[Nexus 6 Accessories] marper123:
I bought 2 solid wood cases for me and my wifes Note 3's and both cases broke within 2 weeks really bummed me out because that case always got people's attention. It was not from carved.com so i don't know if there solid wood offering would be more durable.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] melgibson666:
Man I hope they come out with some soon.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] rlh445:
So I submitted a request through Carved's website. My submission is in bold. Their response is in italics.

First, why are you contacting us?: Are you going to make a case for...

What device do you want us to make a case for?: Nexus 6

In your most convincing voice, tell us why we should make a case for your device??: This device is awesome and is very popular! So popular in fact, that it's been pretty much sold out since its release! It's being sold on all four major carriers and I would love to see one of your beautiful cases surrounding my device. If you make it, I will buy a lot.

Hi Robert,

Thank you for your interest in Carved! At this time, we do not make a case for the Nexus 6. It may be an avenue we pursue in the near future! Please keep checking our website and Instagram for updates.

Please let me know if I can help you with anything else.

Thanks!

Mindy
[Nexus 6 Accessories] stumpy352:
The case they use for the nexus 5 appears to be a ringke slim.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Janewithcamera:
Such a shame that Carved still haven't brought out a case for the N6. Has anyone found a good alternative elsewhere?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] joshm.1219:
Have you checked out the natural wood skins from slickwraps?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] 98HTTR91:
Just received this from them.

Hi David,

Thank you for your interest in Carved! At this time, we are in the process of designing cases for the Nexus 6. I do not currently have an estimated time that they will be released.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] RaptorMD:
I wanted to let you know that Carved.com asked me to beta test a Nexus 6 case on the 25th, it should be here in the next day or two, not sure what the rules are about testing it so I will confirm if I can post pics and comment on it. But I wanted to share that it is making progress.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] gravitywell:
How did you get in on the beta test?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] RaptorMD:
I ran across it on their Instagram page and signed up. Got the case today and emailed how to send feedback. I have a few questions for them, like will they be offering fully wood cases like they do for other phone. That is what I am truly looking for and what caught my eye on their beta page.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] gravitywell:
I don't think all of their cases are completely wood. I think a number of them are bumper cases with a wooden back.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] CharlesXavier:
I got mine as well, and messaged them on facebook about letting others know about the progress. They said it's OK because they mentioned in some posts that they're in the process of making them. I hope they come out with one that has a flip cover. That would be nice.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Henroids:
Betatesters, any updates regarding the final product?? I've been waiting a while for a decent wood case and this one seems the most promising!

Are you guys allowed to post any pictures with the device?

Thanks
[Nexus 6 Accessories] buzzwyzr:
The cases are available on carved. Thanks to all you beta testers!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] crkdslider:
SWEET! Just ordered one. Thanks for the update!
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Trooper27:

[Nexus 6 Accessories] crkdslider:

[Nexus 6 Accessories] Jhvoorhies:
I contacted Carved.com about a promotional case to review. Yesterday, I got the aztec calendar design for my Nexus 6. Honestly, i have never seen a case with more design detail. The design is phenomenal! It provides a little bit of bulk and makes the nexus 6 less curvy, but it feels incredible in the hand. After using it for a few hours last night, I noticed that the bottom corner that should latch onto one of the nexus' bottom corners did not hold properly which resulted in the case being able to pop on and off only in the one corner on the phone. It was very very very annoying. I contacted my carved.com rep last night to see if I can get a replacement to review. I am hoping this is just a lemon of the batch, but if you have purchased from carved.com and have a case, please let me know if you have this same issue. Otherwise, this case would be the PERFECT option for me! I was using a ringke/rearth fusion case, but the fusion case was scuffed badly despite the anti-scratch claims.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] 1stloc:
Anyone have pictures with the case on the phone I'm interested but worry it might be to thick and a heavy case
[Nexus 6 Accessories] wolfen69:
I want the USS Constitution case made from 18th Century Naval timber. WOW that's sweet.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] crkdslider:
I am currently using one of their cases. I do NOT have this problem. In fact, it's more on the difficult side to get off the phone.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Smallsmx3:
I got mine two days ago and had this issue for about an hour then it went away. Wood can be warped. So maybe that's the issue. The case does add a little bulk but the phone has never felt better in hand. I like that the back is flat. I don't understand the need for phone companies having to make devices so thin..... Give us a bigger Bayer and cram more goodies into our phones
[Nexus 6 Accessories] crkdslider:
The ONLY thing I don't like about this case, is the way the case is formed around the buttons. It makes them hard to press with big fingers.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] LeeSta108:
Can you please post some pics?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] crkdslider:
Ya, I can. It won't be until tomorrow though. Currently at work.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] 1stloc:
Anyone have purchased these cases and can provide pictures
[Nexus 6 Accessories] NCtwin:
I'd love to see pics as well. I'm definitely interested in these, but I would like to see some real pics. How slim is the case?? Ringke Slim slim?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] crkdslider:
Hey guys, I've been extremely busy lately. I will be taking pictures of mine pretty soon. Sorry for the wait.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Nickchapstick:
So just so I'm correct... The case is a plastic piece that doesn't cover the top or bottom of the phone on the screen side edge that has a wood back?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] crkdslider:
Ok everyone, sorry that this took so long. I had been meaning to do this when I got the case, but I was either busy or I just forgot to do it. Anyways, had a slow moment at work, and was able to take some pictures for you all. This is the Chicago Skyline case. I also want to include that this case has been my daily for the past few weeks now, and I love it still. VERY solid case.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] NCtwin:
Thank you for the pics!! It looks great honestly. It doesn't look too bulky either, which I really like.

Now I have to figure out which one to get...
[Nexus 6 Accessories] crkdslider:
It adds more depth as opposed to bulk, so it makes the phone a little thicker, as opposed to wider. It makes for a comfortable feel in the hands.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] adil17:
Here's the Corporal design which I got. Have to say it looks very nice and doesn't add too much bulk or thickness at all.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Elfisher:
looks like it's hard to press wake/volume buttons with this case. am i right?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] crkdslider:
It's definitely not the same as most cases. This is almost as if you have to reach under the case with your finger, but not that bad.
[Micromax A26] xdroid1:
i rooted my device earlier, but it was good with no errors.

i changed my bootanimation.zip with custom animation file, yet it was fine.

but when i tried to change framework_res.apk with a custom framework file and then i rebooted and from there the problem started.

It is not booting it just shows the bolt logo and then the custom animation that i loaded but then it shows a blank screen turns off and again starts. this process goes on and on till i turn off the mobile.

specs of my mobile:

1. gingerbread 2.3.5

[General Topics] mjjcb:
I've never seen anyone explain why the iPhone continues to be the hand that rocks the cradle. I've heard reports in the last few months showing that over 80% of new phones shipped were Android devices. Also cited was that Android had 51% of the market, while AOS had 41%. I think those stats were from 2Q 2014.

So why does the world shake when they announce their new OS, the iPhone 6, and the same e-pay system that Google has had in place for a while? Either the stats aren't truly accurate of the entire market or it's just more of the same media hype & fascination with iAnything.

Can anyone confidently say if Android does own the market and why the iPhone phenomenon continues?
[General Topics] Planterz:
The iPhone wasn't the first smartphone, but it was the first one that implemented many things well for the common user.

A lot of the success of the iPhone can be traced to the success and popularity of the iPod before it, which was similarly not the first device of its kind, but a huge improvement over previous devices. People loved their iPods, so they also bought iPhones.

Because so many people adopted the iPhone early, many have stuck with it over the years. Brand loyalty is a very powerful thing, both to the customers and the companies. There's also the issue of familiarity. Although they all use Android, a person going from Motorola to Samsung to HTC could easily be confused by the different layouts, settings, and features used by different manufacturers.

Then you can also add the fact that these people have become "invested" in iOS, buying apps/games/iTunes etc. Of course, even someone who has spent a lot of money, say, $100 over the years on apps/games, could save way more than that by switching to a much less expensive Android phone and re-buying everything, but people don't think like that.

The iPhone is also a bit of a status symbol. Cool/rich/hip people often buy iPhones Personally, I think too much has been made of attributing the "status symbol" effect to iPhone's success, but it's still a factor, and one that can't be ignored (just like having an iPod vs something else).

While people like us might hate iOS and Apple for our various reasons, I still can't deny that an iPhone is a perfectly capable device that'd do pretty much everything I'd need a phone to. Of course, there's a lot of "advanced" things we like to do, but most people don't need to do those things, and the iPhone suffices in that regard, and does it fairly simply. And there's plenty of people that want just that.

I hope I don't sound like an apologist. I hate iOS, and hate Apple even more. But I can understand why some people like iPhones, and why the brand sees so much success.
[General Topics] mjjcb:
No doubt, everything you said was true. The point I was making was that from what I've heard, android has greater market share and even more dominance of new device starts. With that, why are businesses jumping to appease iPhone owners? I understand there will be a huge uptake of wireless payment devices to accommodate the iPhone, for example. Likewise, the media behaves like they are introducing a whole new technology.

I always wondered why Apple stuck with smaller devices while Android was gaining market share with bigger screens. It will be interesting to see what the larger iPhone 6 does to the trend lines. It is a beautiful phone, but I wouldn't think for one minute about buying one.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] AnttiV:
Hi xda! (been awhile since I last was here...)

I seem to have a problem with my Ultra (C6833), Android version 4.4.4 (official), not rooted, just plain stock Nordic rom via OTA. But using Google Now Launcher.

I can't seem to make "ok google" work with voice only. The settings -> input -> voice search -> "ok Google" detection -> From any screen -page doesn't register my voice *at all*, nothing happens on that screen. Also on any launcher screen or Google Now, saying "ok google" doesn't have any effects what so ever. When I manually click on the mic icon on any of these pages, Google now works perfectly and most of the time I don't have any trouble it understanding me (not native English speaker).

I tried installing OpenMic+ and tried that, but almost the same happens with that. It works when the actual OpenMic+ program is open, but NOT when it is in the background.

The same settings DO work on my Note 8.0 just fine, and the mic works on the Xperia when making calls (or after clicking the mic icon, voice search works fine). So what gives?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] techdeisel:
if you still need help with this first make sure your play services google (search or now whichever u decide to call it)play store an gmail are up-to-date last two may not be necessary not i an others have had issues when not once thats done clear cache an data in apps section under settings for Google an play services
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] AnttiV:
Oh, thanks and yeah, haven't gotten it to work. I forgot to clear the caches, silly me. I did check that everything is up to date. I'll try clearing caches.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] techdeisel:
Ok everything is up to date and clearing the cache still doesn't do it this should be magic goto Google now go to settings go go to voice go to offline speech recognition set auto update to always over data or WiFi go and download UK English language for offline once it's done go back to the installed tab press and hold English UK the selected close Google now open it back go back in that same section and press and hold English us language to select it now try your okay Google
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
I think what that says is use english US the language for OK Google
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] techdeisel:
hmmm?

yes i know but the switch to uk an then switching back is what works
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dark_skeleton:
EDIT: SOLUTION FOUND! SEE BELOW

I'm having the exact same problem with my Xperia Z2.

Any further advice would be amazing. I'm running Android 4.4.4 and read that some apps can interfere with 'ok google', but I can't track down this problem.

Changing languages doesn't seem to help (I tried Australian in the past). Can someone confirm the above worked? I'm running on limited data plan here and would like to avoid recklessly using it up ;(

EDIT: After browsing for a few hours a few days ago looking for a solution, just after writing this post, THAT article showed up. And 'ok google' works now!

http://ausdroid.net/2014/05/08/fix-google-now-voice-commands/

It was LastPass accessibility service running in background! After turning it off, 'ok google' works now :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] AnttiV:
For the record, to this day I haven't been able to make it work on my Xperia. It works perfectly on my Galaxy Note 8.0 and my HTC One M7, but for the life of me, I have not been able to get it to work on this Sony device. It keeps working the same as always - works perfectly with manual activation, but I cannot get the "Ok Google Detection" to do ANYTHING. (the page where it asks you to say "ok google" three times to "learn" your voice). It just does nothing, it does not register my voice at all on that page.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] PshAl:
So glad found this post!

dark_skeleton, you are my HERO!

I couldn't find a solution for this problem for around 4 month!

I was already thinking that there is a hardware problem in my phone,

and just for the chance of succession checked Google again, and SO GLAD I DID!

I used 'OK Google' detection on a daily basis!

In my case, the problem was the application "Informer for SmartWatch".

It was using an accessibility service and blocked the voice recognition.

AnttiV, try going to the accessibility menu and check what services there are external (not pre-installed by Sony).

Seems like it really helps!

Thanks again dark_sekeleton!!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] stemer:
Another app, which is making problems with "Ok Google" is Smart Extension - Hangouts.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] AnttiV:
Yeah, it was that for me. I've been testing a week or so now without it and everything seems to be working fine. Sadly there's now no way to have hangouts on my SW2, which sucks. But the extension doesn't work with Lollipop anyway, so...

Time to upgrade to Android Wear / Apple Watch? :D
[XDA Assist] robertb9657:
Not sure if I'm posting in the proper area, but here goes:

I recently upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy S3 to S5 (i have Verizon, if that matters), and on my S3 (Android 4.1.2 stock) I was able to root my device and convert Fake GPS to a system app, which allowed me to avoid having to check "Allow Mock Locations" anytime I open the app.

I have tried doing the same on my new S5 (Android 4.4.4 stock), and have successfully rooted the device, and converted it to a system app. But now it still forces me to check "Allow Mock Locations" even after rebooting. I have confirmed the Fake GPS apk file is in the /root/system/app folder but still can't find a solution. Do you have any suggestions?
[XDA Assist] Darth:
Hi,

Here is a thread I found... Not sure if this is what you are trying to use.... But it appears it doesn't function anymore.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donetus:
Hi.

I need help in figuring out an annoying issue on my Note 3. I noticed that whenever I access the Settings menu, my phone goes on mute mode. Once I exit the Settings menu, it goes back to the normal volume.

I can't figure out what's causing this? Anyone who had this problem? If I'm going to reset my phone to the factory settings, it'll be ok but after sometime, the same issue will go back.

Btw, I've rooted my phone (via this thread). The apps that require root which are installed on my phone are the following: Titanium Backup, DS Battery Saver Pro, Root Explorer, Saviour Button Pro.
