[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kristwi:
Section A would be for me but on MAC i dont know how to open a command prompt.. i have the renamed zip file in my platform-tools location as ordered but how do i get "adb reboot recovery" working?

My phone is connected to the MAC with an USB and Debugging is enabled through the developer - options...

Im new in this forum but i havent found any thread like this so would be aweseome if you could help here?

Would it be easier to root my device on a mac and then flash it on my nexus directly? just read too much forum stuff but im just a beginner!

so lets see what this forum got :D

Section A: adb sideload

NOTE:Make sure you have the latest version of adb. It seems people are having issues with older versions. It's attached at the bottom of this post.

1) Download the OTA.zip on your PC, rename the file update.zip, then place file in the same directory as adb.

2) Make sure you have USB Debugging checking in the Developer Options, then connect your phone.

3) Open the command prompt from the directory above on your PC and type the command: 'adb reboot recovery'

4) When in recovery, you’ll see an android laying down. Press volume up and release. The menu will appear. Select “apply update from adb”

5) Using the command prompt type: 'adb sideload update.zip' The file will load and the update will begin.

6) When completed, select reboot.

ok i had this then already running but "adb reboot recovery" doesnt do anything then!

will i have to put another phrase in front? im stuck on 4.4.4....
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethantarheels123:
I believe you have to type ./adb or whatever command you want to use. That's just how Unix works. So ./adb sideload update.zip. Try that.

I have Not found a good tutorial for Mac so I haven't been able to upgrade. This is the best video I found. Except it does not show how to setup android Sdk or what I'm supposed to use it for. Check it out it might be helpful

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ethantarheels123:
first, it may be easier to cd to your platform-tools directory. So is the adb command being accepted by terminal? As I said earlier, I am pretty sure you have to type ./adb for the adb command, unless you changed that in your bash_profile

So, type:

cd /Users/kristofgervautz/Desktop/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20140702\ 2/sdk/platform-tools

then:

./adb sideload update.zip

while making sure you are in STOCK recovery and selected "apply update from adb"

oh thx it worked tried it again today and yes i forgot the "./" in front and now when i wrote ./ adb devices it recognized my device!

Hello folks

What do members recommend when it comes to a theme engine for a Google edition rom on the M7. Quite a few of our GPE roms come with HKthemere pre-installed, but it seems Xthemes has more of a selection of themes available?

Do both pretty much have the same limitations when it comes to theming the rom?

Thanks.

I want to flash the lollipop factory image. My phone is on 4.4.4 as an unlocked bootloader and is rooted. Do i have to return to stock to flash the image?

Thanks in advance
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
when flashing a factory img, you wipe out your partitions. why would you have to flash stock for that? also, you would have to reroot. why not just flash a flashable zip of lollipop stock or aosp? found in the android development section for the n5.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] chickyd:
any of you guys come across this app.. it's for getting push e-mail without an ms exchange server.

question: has anyone got a way round applying this to hotmail? i think the trick is to get outlook to accept hotmail and then use this app.

also, i'm running on vista so this isn't yet compatible.. anyone aware of a similar app - i can use with my hotmail - that'll do the trick?

thanks guys..

Free push email

Hello, I've been using mail2web.com it's free and you don't have yo use outlook.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] chickyd:
But this doesn't support Hotmail does it?

I'm looking for a Hotmail solution... anyone?
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] xaoc:
:)

Just forward you emails from hotmail to mail2web ..
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] chickyd:
sorry to be a pain... don't think i can forward my hotmail messages... can i?

are you able to explain how to do this and any implications?

cheers...
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] twisted-pixel:
I have had a quick look at this app and it seems like a good thing to me - bearing in mind I've seen other push email accounts charging £15 a month.

I have a couple of questions though, someone here might know the answer.

AIUI the email is delivered over GPRS so you need to be connected all the time.

so the first question is what sort of data gets transferred if you are connected all the time but not actually downloading anything? for example if you look at your broadband connection, even when you are not using it, small amounts of data are sent/received periodically. over the course of the day this could quite easily add up!!

next question is, although I have an O2 Orbit, I'm not actually on O2. I have a temporary T-Mobile sim card while I wait to start my new job and they give me my new phone (I'll just take the sim out and put it in my orbit). I have only seen an option to set up the configuration for O2. Can the GPRS settings for other networks be entered manually? or will I have to remove all the O2 settings that are installed after a hard reset to enable me to do this? (not something I really want to do)

In answer to the other comments about mail2web and mail2wap. I have been using this site for years and years, the only thing is you have to connect to the web and then check your mail....you might not have any but you still have to pay to connect and transfer data. Hence the push email is a better idea as you KNOW you have mail as opposed to checking in case you MIGHT have some with mail2web.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] flamingcrumb:
My understanding is that the free Mail2Web Live product uses the older Always Up To Date technology. i.e. it sends you a silent text message when new email arrives which triggers Pocket Outlook to connect by POP or IMAP and get your mail.

That is not a push mail product. It is a triggered pull. Not bad for free, but one should be clear it does not include Direct Push... unless something has recently changed (please feel free to correct me)

Mail2Web also offer Personal Exchange, a paid hosted exchange service which has Direct Push. I personally did not like their service as I was unhappy with the Junk mail filtering they use, but their most basic hosted exchange service with Direct Push is extremely cheap... though not free.:)
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] twisted-pixel:
so, let me just make sure that I understand this correctly....

the mail2web live product whilst not being a true push service does advise me that I have received an email by sending a silent SMS which tells my device to connect to the net and sync with the mail2web server to get my emails yes? (assuming I am somewhere where I have wifi or internet access)

that doesn't sound too bad....as basically what I am after is something that tells me I have an email when it arrives in my inbox. All I need is a text message telling me who it's from and the subject. That way I can decide whether I want to connect to the net and pick up the email or whether it's something that can wait.

is there anyone who offers a service like that? (I think hotmail do but I don't want to use hotmail)

many thanks
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] flamingcrumb:
Sorry to the Mods if this is getting off-topic (realize this is an Artemis - Emoze thread... please move if appropriate!)

Goota be honest, it is a few months since I used any Mail2Web service so I can only report on my past experience. I recall they had fairly responsive/informative support by email and recommend you ask them directly.

I think Always Up To Date (AUTD) doesn't work quite the way you describe... not that it is bad at all, and it may well do what you need. Anyway, how it works is you would be installing a little application on your device which can recognize a special hidden/silent text message from the Exchange Server (you cannot see or read this message). It just tells you device that there is new email, that is all, Then your device switches on (screen goes on, comes out of suspend) and does a an email logon as if you had opened the relevant Pocket Outlook email account and hit the send/receive choice. It then logs on from scratch and retrieves your email (just headers or everything will based on your settings).

The good is this is may be free and can work on a pre-WM5 device. The downside is that it is much slower than true Direct Push and uses more battery. With Direct Push a handshake is already established with the Exchange Server and when you new mail arrives it drops into you mailbox within seconds without your device even needing to come out of standby. You just hear the audio alert of email arriving (depending on your prefered settings).

I tried the least expensive paid Exchange Service from mail2web. It was only about 2 USD a month with no contract so I am not complaining. I personally didn't like that, for me, it incorrectly marked almost every single message as Spam and I could not adjust this adequately unless I upgraded to their most expensive Exchange offering... which costs about the same as other similar services.

I am trying out the 1 and 1 Exchange service at present. OK, not fantastic. Probably we should have a thread specially for a good email round up... likely there is one already and I should probably be posting there....

HTH:D
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] TangerineTractor:
What you need is WM6 with Windows Live!

I have a Wizard running WM6... just got my XDA Orbit on O2, WM5 :-(

On WM6, the MSN service is replaced with Windows Live, and that allows you to configure a hotmail account to sync up automatically or at specific intervals.

You can do it in WM5 using the MSN messageger with an ID linked to your hotmail acocunt, but you have to be logged in to messgencger for it to work.

If anyone can extract the Windows Live component form a WM6 rom....
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] twisted-pixel:
I recently tried another application from qore.

The idea is that you get your emails forwarded to a service that texts you when you get an email (in my case T-Mobile offers this service). The application intercepts this text (you receive no notification, it's all done in the background) and triggers a send/receive on the email account specified on your unit. In my case connecting via GPRS and downloading my emails.

sadly, it seemed to interrupt random texts and since it's done in the background, you don't even know that the text has been intercepted. I was getting angry phone calls from my mates asking why I hadn't replied to texts, that I hadn't even seen!!
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] pebsuk:
Push Email

1. Register a Hotmail account and use the included Microsoft Pocket MSN software it works!

2. Register an account with http://www.consilient.com it's free and allows push mail from many services...

Hope this helps..
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackWilfred:
So, I tried to update my Nexus 7 2012 to Android 5.0, I tried the OTA and everything but it didn't work, so I made the foolish error of flashing a 5.0 factory image over my 4.4.4 tablet, and now it says booting failed in the top right of the screen whenever I try to boot it.

I tried finding the device with ADB, nothing. I tried with fastboot, it found it (explains why my tablet is in Fastboot Mode). My question is, what do I do now? I think fastboot means I have a chance of saving it, but I have no idea really. I'm a complete amateur.
