[Nexus 6  General] fury683:
Yeah I've never relocked any bootloaders, but I'm pretty sure the Nexus Factory Image page explicitly says that unlocking will wipe data, and it is recommended to relock when you're done flashing, but relocking does not wipe.

Wonder if that is a new thing...
[Nexus 6  General] phekno:
I just re-locked my N5 running Lollipop and it did NOT wipe data. It did wipe data when I un-locked it. Could be a "feature" in the new bootloader on the N6 (assuming it HAS a new bootloader).
[Nexus 6  General] pep_dj:
I've just relocked my Nexus 6 bootloader and... yes, it wiped data
[Nexus 6  General] xdatastic:
I just did the same thing :(

Must be a Motorola thing, cos my old wingray Xoom did the same thing. None of my previous Nexus phones have wiped data on locking.
[Nexus 6  General] VivaErBetis:
The Google Factory Images page:

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images

currently states that:

"Locking bootloader will wipe the data on some devices."

But it was changed recently, in February. It previously stated:

"Locking the bootloader does not wipe any data"

Here is the proof:

So I can understand your frustration.

[Nexus 6  General] npjohnson:
Worthwhile note:

The following Nexus's don't wipe upon relock:

- Nexus One

- Nexus S

- Nexus 10

- Nexus 7 2012
[Nexus 6  General] efrant:
Actually the only Nexus devices that wipe upon relock are the Nexus 6 and Nexus 9. All the others don't. Your list is missing the Galaxy Nexus, the Nexus 4, Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 (2013).

And as an aside: the Nexus One did not have a relockabke bootloader. Once unlocked you couldn't relock it (unless you had S-OFF).
[Nexus 6  General] npjohnson:
I was speaking from personal experience with that list.

Ah. The days of the Nexus One. You're right, Re-Locking required S-OFF, but back with the Nexus One, who didn't have S-OFF? XD
[Nexus 6  General] efrant:
From the users who posted here on XDA, almost no one... :) The only way to get S-OFF on the Nexus One (aside from a select few that ended up buying their device with S-OFF) was with an XTC Clip, and not too many wanted to spend the $30 or so to buy one just for the ability to relock the bootloader. I bought one just for the sake of playing around with it. :D
[Nexus 6  General] npjohnson:
Well, with BlackRose its S-OFF on everything except radio.

EDIT: Badly Stated. Bootloader isn't technically *S-OFF* , but in actuality, you can flash a custom bootloader, and everything else, can't flash a radio though.
[Nexus 6  General] wietse1988:
When I'd saw it could be relocked without data being wiped, I'd did do a relock. And it wiped data.... So now setting up the phone again..
[Nexus Q Android Development] McHearty:
This is my first port so there may be some issues but would love for any help squashing bugs once it gets going. I've built this similarly to how Android TV was ported to the OUYA in this thread.

Similarly I am using the following for this port:

His ADT-1 System dump from this post.

His Android L port to the 2012 Nexus 7 from here.

and last but not least

His CM11 Amp Build from here.

[Nexus Q Android Development] Lifetrip718:
I've installed this just now ... unfortunately it doesn't look like its going to boot.

Followed all instructions ... bootscreen is moving but no load after 20 mins.

EDIT:

It did not boot and I am not sure why at this time.
[Nexus Q Android Development] hhairplane:
Hopefully there will be some kind of fix. Nexus Q is the dream AndroidTV.
[Nexus Q Android Development] wollac11:
Still no progress past the boot animation sadly - even with the updated build. Does it matter which audio output version of CM11 you have flashed first? (edit: tried several & no joy)

Also, I tried to take a logcat to see if I could indentify where it was getting stuck during the boot proccess but sadly it would not let me as it is showing as "offline" which suggests that Android has actually booted and is therefore requiring an RSA key but has not made it as far as displaying any kind of interface.

Thanks for starting to work on this anyway. I would love to get Android TV working on this device.
[Nexus Q Android Development] wollac11:
I think I may know what the issue is with this. For the Ouya, using a 5.0 build for the N7 2012 made sense because they both use the Tegra 3. However the Nexus Q does not use the Tegra 3, internally it is almost exactly the same as the Galaxy Nexus and they both use the OMAP 4460, therefore using the Nexus 7 2012 base will not work.

If you use the latest Android 5.0 port for the Galaxy Nexus instead then things should (hopefully) work just fine. The CM12 port for the Gnex also includes some updated GPU drivers from Texas Instruments which give better performance and provide better compatibility with newer Android versions.

I hope this may help you create a working Android TV port. I may try and build something myself during late January if I get the time but I can't make any promises. I've only just got the Nexus Q so I'm just starting to play around with it.
[Nexus Q Android Development] Kovs:
I am excited to see the progress on this. If this works, the possabilities are endless. Thank you every in advance for their support. If we can get this up and going, I am definalty donating to the cause for someones hard work (i wish i knew how to do this!)
[Nexus Q Android Development] Unjustified Dev:
To the developer of this rom if you want help just pm me. I'm thinking of starting a hangout group for porting Android TV.
[Nexus Q Android Development] jjessew:
I am very interested in this project and would be interested in helping out. I have never done anything like this, and I would like to see the nexus q live on.

If the full android-tv functionality is not possible, it would still be interesting to me to turn it into a 'cast ready speaker' for cast audio. (obviously I would need to hook my own speakers to it)

It has an amp, the ability to hook up to wifi, and volume control. In my mind, it would need no other functionality other than the ability to cast to it.

If there are any suggestions or guidance, please throw them out there. I will do my best to run with it.
[Nexus Q Android Development] nexus15:
Really hoping to see this go somewhere.
[Nexus Q Android Development] Kovs:
So is development for this dead?
[Nexus Q Android Development] Kovs:
Is there anyway to get development spurred back up for this? I would gladly donate some $$$ for someone to put some time into it.....If I new how too, I would help in development. This would be the ULTIMATE Android TV player!!!!!
[Nexus Q Android Development] Unjustified Dev:
The developers need to first get android L running on the device. The port is nearly impossible if your device doesn't have a fully function 5.0 port. The graphics HAL is the main thing I think will fail.
[Nexus Q Android Development] jyeley5:
You all are welcome to give my AOSP 5.1 ROM a try, with the understanding it is in an extreme ALPHA state (first build, no 3rd party features implemented yet), and can tolerate restoring a backup if you encounter issues. I'm not sure how many still are actively using these on XDA, but the more testers the better so development can be expedited.

Hey guys. I recently picked up a 10.1 refurb for $250 off slickdeals. This thing is in perfect condition, however I've noticed if I squeeze the right side a little firmly, the back makes a somewhat silent pop and creak sound. Is this normal behavior due to build quality materials or is there a space between the back of the internals and the back cover?

Yup it's build quality, took mine in to Samsung repair shop for that reason it came back a little bit less creaky for a day then started again. I have now accepted it and use a cover that has stopped the irritation

[Sony Xperia ZL] NaminatoR1254jaime.sier:
Hi guys.

Im new to the Xperia ZL. Had it since four days, at most. I got one with a modified rom from Movistar (Chile; south america) and it came with 4.4.2 kitkat. The 3 big companies in my country that sold the phone, had all updated just to 4.4.2

So, at first, I flashed a Generic/Customized LATAM (latin-american) rom. I felt the battery was kinda the same, but problems arose.

I was using using Whatsapp, and then started to use Chrome, web-browsing and everything, and suddenly the phone starts heating up a lot. And I mean a real lot. The maximum CPU-Z marked was 49°C (120 F) (If Im not wrong, CPU-Z marks battery temp). I stopped using it and shutted it down. I was, in a very heated area though. And my ZL has one of those cases that is composed of a rubber case and a metal case (think of it as a rubber case, and a ""metal"" case covering that). Still, I dont know if that had anything to do (dont think so); I mean, the comments I read about Chrome were bad haha. "Power hungry, resource hungry", "can cause overheat".

Searching, googling, whatever, I decided to use AOSP Browser (not the root app on the Play Store, but the "Vanilla Browser"). Still, though, mistrusted, in the end I replaced the Generic LATAM rom with the Customized MY (Malaysian) rom.

Now Im using the "Vanilla Browser". But Im kind of paranoid with this. I even installed CPU Temperature.

So the question is: is any of the above that happened to me, like, "normal" on a ZL? Was the LATAM firmware maybe "wrong" or anything? Im thinking of downgrading to 4.4.2. But I dont want to abandon latest, Settings-lag-free 4.4.4 :/

Thanks in advance :)

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] elesbb:
OEM camera apps never work on other OEM devices. Your force close is most likely caused by a framework file or even worse parts of a file missing. It would take days to find all the missing components. Even then, you can't guarantee the binary files would communicate with the kernel.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brain@war:
Hi Everyone,

What is up... Seems like in 10 years ago I got my droid X... then a bit after I went apple. Last weekend I traded in and got a note 4. Love so far, it got me addicted. Now the problems arise with open source type equipment. I have a BT Keyboard, which works great, however I must be able to map virtual controls (on screen d pads and such) to the keyboard. Many apps will do this but they ALL require ROOT access.

I have tried different PC's, cables, Odin 3.4 to 3.10 and two different CF AUTO root packages. Each Time I get a failure, and the phone reads some error about ": recovery". Z4 root used to be the jam, what is making this so hard? I can donate to anyone that teaches me or informs me how to root this phone so I can play in peace. First person to get me up and running wins.

I just completed a factory reset, tested again and no go. Odin starts to write and then Fails. Yes I have USB Debugging on. I have followed all the steps. Is Samsung winning? Please any information helps. I have 7 days left or I have to return to iLand, where there is no hope.. but it is peaceful bc you even care to try. lol. Thanks

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brittoking:
Do you have the developer edition. My educated guess is NO if you were able to trade in your iPhone and get the Note in store. There is NO root for either the Att or Verizon variant phones. Only the developer edition for Verizon has the necessary unlocked bootloader. There's a couple people working on root but there's no eta or even a guarantee in the slightest. It's ALL over these forums.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brain@war:
So what you are saying is leave vzw and get a note 4 elsewhere... I guess I can do that. Seems silly but understandable.

So go to t-mobile and get the note 4? I can then use the SM-N910T from CA autoroot? Please let me know if this would work. I'd hate to port over and be in the same boat. Thank you for confirming the vzw version is a lesser phone though.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YankInDaSouth:
Verizon and AT&T lock their devices down whereas T-Mobile doesn't. With T-Mo you can unlock the bootloader, install a custom recovery and root. So, if you were to leave Verizon and port to T-Mo you could easily root your Note 4 and install the apps needed to achieve what you want/need. (T-Mobile also has that promo where they'll pay up $350 (I think it's $350) towards your early termination fee if you switch)

[Droid X General] argentwarrior20:
This is my first attempt at making a substantial post so don't crucify me if I seem noobish or if I'm somehow wrong.

I'm using CM11, which supports swap. Nice. However, it does not turn it on at boot. I tried a few apps from the Play store and most worked. But I don't like having to use a third party app just to use a feature in my ROM. So I decided to make a guide on how to swapon at boot time. It's rather easy.

(I would've made a flashable zip but couldn't find a tool to do it. Does anyone know of a tool for Windows?)

Make a swap partition on your sd card in AParted or using a Linux desktop (unless you already have one).

Open the CM File Manager in root mode and navigate to /system/etc/

Open fstab in the editor

Add the following to your fstab, where "X" is your sd card's swap partition:

/dev/block/mmclk0pX swap swap

Then reboot. Confirm that it's working by doing "free" in the terminal or via ADB. It worked for me and therefore should work for anyone using CM11.

NOTE: I take no responsibility for soft-bricked devices, bootloops, dead sd cards, nuclear war, apocalyptic events, or any other bad things that might happen. Make a backup in TWRP first.
