[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
Unable to mount is a twrp issue. I've seen it many times before.

I have solved it on a custom rom by flashing an official clockworkmod recovery.

I have solved it on a stock firmware by flashing a stock recovery

I have solved it by flashing back to stock completely.

*I have read that some people cannot recover their phone from that state.*

If someone has ETEN X500 or M700 device I ask him/her to extract and post PREI_ETMERGEEX_ENG.CAB (it's in Extended ROM) and post here.

This cab installs the Phone Service for ETEN PDAs that is quite an useful program with zoom-sms, Scenarios and call-blacklist. I use an extracted version in my Artemis, downloaded from our forum, but it is from the previous line of ETEN PDAs (M600, I think) and not perfectly stable.

Thanks, in advance!

cheers,

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] TraJet:
I know i guy with X700 & maybe he'll agree on that. How this could be done?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ctibor:
With Total Commander or Resco Explorer you should write to the command line: "\Extended_ROM" (without quotation marks) and it becomes visible. Than you can copy any files of the hidden folder to another 'normal' one.

At least I hope it works in case of ETEN devices too, because for HTC devices this is the easiest procedure. But I do know that the preistalled apps of ETEN PDAs can be extracted, because they are on the net freely downloadable (eten-users forum), but, unfortunatelly only the German version is avaible there. :-(

Unfortunately, no. That thread is about the old, extracted version of the prog (which I also currently use). My aim would be to replace this with the original and more advanced version of the app, preinstalled to all new ETEN PDA.

I had found that link before but my guess is the GER in the title means its in german - probably need the equivalent with ENG in the title.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ctibor:
Thanks man, I have long discovered that site. If you want e.g. Quicklink (Today plugin for start apps directly from Today) you can download from there and run it in any WM5 device without problem.

But the specific cab I need is only available in GERMAN there! I gave it a try: installed the German version and it worked like charm, but I cannot speak German, and - to tell the truth - don't want to use a non-English (or non-Hungarian) program in my PDA. But I do encourage all our German-speaking mates to try it out!

So, that's my problem!

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ggmask:
I've seen a handful of messages both here and on reddit lamenting the fact that the Nexus 6 is a 32-bit device. What all of these posts have in common is a lack of information: what does 32-bit vs 64-bit actually mean for day-to-day use and what are the practical implications?

Will the lack of 64-bit turn out to be a big deal within 2 years? How?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucke:
there's no way of telling. the first 64-bit Android device is the Nexus 9 and it's too new to tell any implications for the next year, let alone two.

as far as we know, it's schrodinger's cat... until there are 64-bit phones in the market, we'll neither know, nor not know, what we actually get.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lude219:
It took apple a year (since the release of 64bit on the iPhone 5) to enforce 64bit code change for all apps... So likely you won't be hearing about 64 bit android apps probably until early 2016. Even then, the adoption rate will be gradual and slow until the majority of 32 bit handsets are phased out.

Is there anything I can do to roll back to MDK BASEBAND so I can actually unlock the bootloader? I am currently on MK2 stock ROM.

Is it even possible to unlock the bootloader on MDK? I have spend over 6 hours researching and trying to figure this thing out. I really want to stay away from safestrap...

Can someone point me to a thread or explain this to me? I can't seem to find anything relevant to this question.

No way to rollback to MDK my friend - the only ones on MDK are us lucky sods that got it that way and kept it. The bootloader is not unlocked on MDK - workaround is available using Loki exploit.

[XDA Assist] caramba2654:
Hello! This is my first post on this forum, but I'll try to be helpful.

Well, I got my hands on a tablet. Which tablet? I have no idea. The "About page" on the settings only says that the Model number is M1706. And nothing else. (Besides that it's running on Android 4.2.2)

Since Android Lollipop is out, I've been dying to try it. Unfortunately, I don't have a device that supports it, so I though I'd try to install it on this random tablet that I have.

And here's where the problems start.

I tried flashing a AOSP Lollipop build to the tablet, but it always aborted. (From this thread)

Then I tried to install a custom recovery to see if that would help.

Managed to find the TWRP apk and install it. Unfortunately the app crashes when I open it.

So I tried downloading it from the App Store. The thing is that my tablet doesn't have the App Store app.

I tried many different versions, but none of them were able to be opened. It's like a process was killing the app, I think. I have no idea, though.

I then installed Clockworkmod ROM Manager to see if that would work.

It installed and opened, but it can't flash ROMS unless my tabled is rooted.

Since this is a mistery tablet, I don't think there are any root methods for it.

That's my situation right now.

Any suggestions on what I can do to achieve my goal of installing Android Lollipop on my tablet?
[XDA Assist] Darth:
Hi,

I have to say, you're swimming in dangerous waters here.... And so far you've been extremely lucky. You can't flash anything to just about any device, unless it's made specifically for your device. Many times trying to do so can brick (destroy) your device.

So you'd be best to stop trying to install things made for other devices.

As far as your device getting Lollipop, that seems doubtful. I say that because it's on Jelly Bean.... Not even kit Kat. Of course that's an educated guess though. And until you find out what actual device you have, There's not much we can do for you. Also, you won't know if there's anything out there for your device... Cause you don't know what device you have.

I'd work on solving that mystery... And go from there. ?

Good luck.
[XDA Assist] caramba2654:
Eyyup. I know what I'm doing is very dangerous, but this tablet is basically useless without any form of Google apps. Besides, I think it's a prototype tablet, so even if I brick it, I won't be sad. I got it for free, after all.

I'm trying my best to figure out which device it is. Usually when you have Google apps in a device, Google Play store shows its type when you install an app using Google Play Store on a desktop. Since I can't get Google Play Store in it, though, it may be a lot harder. I still need to try installing Google+ to see if it works. Will come back with the results in a bit.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barleyman:
This was a bit unexpected. Lollipop is supposed to make using SDCARD (in this case there is NO sdcard) more sensible.

However now I can't copy any files to Nexus in MTP mode. I can do that in P2P mode but only to the picture folders. Any suggestions on that? Selinux setting?

And, yes, I did try making a new folder but no joy. I also noticed I can't see app-specific folders such as titaniumbackup. :confused:
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3DSammy:
I just upgraded my N10 to Lollipop yesterday. I'm rooted, have SELinux Mode Changer (set to permissive mode) and have USB OTG Helper [root]https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.shajul.usbotg&hl=en installed. That gives me full unfettered RW access to my OTG SDCard reader. USB OTG Helper expands the number of SDCard file formats that Android supports. I have mine formatted to ext4 to remove the 2GB file limit but thats just my requirement. I used ES File Explorer to access the SDCard and move/copy files, although I'm sure many other file managers would have worked.

I hope that info helps.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barleyman:
It's not an actual SDCARD but the internal emulated sdcard which is being difficult.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irieone:
I am in the same boat. I want to restore some apps I backed up in 4.4.4 and lollipop won't read the backup folders in the root directory. I can see and access them via pc, but not through Android. I tried using Titanium & MyBack Up Pro w/ SU access. No dice. Like you, I also tried moving the folders to my Desktop and back. Renaming, creating new folders, etc..., doesn't help.

I can't work around the issue. My current thinking is that we are dealing with a security feature. It seems like all my 4.4.4 folders with user info in them are walled off.

Grrrrr
[General Questions and Answers] froggie1930:
Hello all. My brother bought his lenovo A680 around a month ago and I decided to root it (as far as i remember, i used Framaroot).

Worked awesome after that. After some time, he told me he couldnt download anything from the google play. So this night i decided to use Lucky patcher to install a different (still original) GPlay. Still couldnt download apps. So i decided to simply make a Data reset (factory reset) and start again from the beginning. BUT - that was it! after the phone finished its procedure of deleting, it didnt load any Home launcher, i could only use the Taskbar (and go to options). I run android recovery (turned it off, then Power+volumeUP), deleted data + cache - but it got even worse... Now i cant even get to the main screen, can't even go to options, only in Recovery mode. THIS IS SO STRANGE, isn't it? And now i dont really know what happened. The phone is still with guarantee, but im sure my mobile operator wont accept it (since its rooted + busybox + etc... etc...).

I hope for any help i can find, thanks a lot, i hope i was clear enough ;/

Thanks...

I dont want to tell him his new phone is... f%ked up :/

Chipset	- Mediatek MT6582

If a stock Lollipop update was available (maybe in Poland, but I think that is the only place currently), then this might apply to you. It seems that you might be able to root the 5.0 ROM, but you would most definitely lose Bump and the ability to flash a custom recovery or ROM.

Decompile LGSystemUI.apk with apktool.

Search for: status_bar.xml

then search for:

</com.lge.systemui.widget.StatusBarLinearLayout>

add this after this line:

<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.KeyButtonView android:layout_gravity="right" android:id="@id/back" android:paddingRight="65.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:src="#00000000" android:layout_toRightOf="@id/recent_apps" android:contentDescription="@string/accessibility_back" systemui:keyCode="26" systemui:keyRepeat="false" systemui:glowBackground="@drawable/ic_sysbar_highlight" androidundefinedrientation="vertical" />

Some benchmarks

I can't post in the main thread, so maybe someone can post these findings up there?

All in all, it doesn't look like there's much overhead on the N9. I was actually hoping that there would be more of a difference to explain some of the baffling lag on the damn thing. My Nexus 6 saw HUGE differences once I ran it unencrypted.

(Encrypted results were snagged from AndroidPolice's article (whoops, can't post links either) on the N6. Because it didn't seem like it had much of an affect on performance, I restored the stock boot.img and ran the tests again after the encryption process completed. They're listed as Re-Encrypted below. Some odd results, but that can probably be attributed to the fact that I only ran the tests once (maybe twice).

4KB RW (MB/s)

AP - Encrypted - 3.14

Unencrypted - 3.12

Re-Encrypted - 4.33

256KB SR (MB/s)

AP - Encrypted - 39.4

Unencrypted - 40.55

Re-Encrypted - 39.48

4KB RR (MB/s)

AP - Encrypted - 18.41

Unencypted - 19.88

[Nexus 9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] atlharry:
At worst, you'll have to re-flash the original boot.img, adb sideload the update, then re-flash the no-encrypt boot.img. All without rebooting the device.

As far as i can tell though, since the N9 utilizes the HW cryptography module in the K1, it's not worth the effort since there really aren't any measurable gains. Not like it is with the N6.
