[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patt2k:
Not sure but US vpn should do the job?

if spotify requires US IP then just get a cheap VPN.

if 500 MB is enough for you for "1" day you could download music offline then http://securitykiss.com gives 500MB/day free VPN.

Hi all,

I have rooted the china 9100 and also installed Google play into the China phone. But I cannot find a way to add Google contact and sync my contact in.

Can anyone advise? Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:
Do you mean import your contacts to your device?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obeydatdog:
Hi,

Yes. When I go into the call function, there is no Google account for me to chose for importing and syncing my contact.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zsnh_khy:
It seems to me,you must install all Google service package because It doesnt work in china(network).so they uninstall all Google service package.

First: you must download the package.

http://pan.baidu.com/s/1o6JoIT0

then you rename it in English.

Second: put them on your SD card.

Third: power off your phone,and then enter Recovery Mode(volume up+home+power key)

Fourth: select the ZIP file that you renamed It.

OK,PLZ waiting for install them!

Hope that will help you:)

Not what I did.

I did the CF-Auto root through ODIN,

then I did the recovery through ODIN (mine is the N9108v)

then flashed the GAPPS 4.4.* through that recovery.

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Android Development] TheFixItMan:
Of course not - its a themed cm7

[MENTION=5198436]NajuAynr[/MENTION] - you must also provide the link to bieltv3 cm7 kernel thread which contains the source code else this thread will be closed for breaking the kernel rules

You also need to state it's a themed rom and by looks of it its based on bieltv3 cm7 so provide link to that thread & give credits

[Motorola Droid 4] ferviverus:
Welcome!

My proposal is to create modifications (patch or a separate system) based on the Stock ROM, but that part of the application have been converted from the Cyanogenmod 10.0 (install with no problem), part of the application removed (Verizon applications, third-party unnecessary applications, apps, Google [install from ZIP ])

Why is that?

Stock ROM is probably the best ROM including the Droid 4, stable, fast (if there is no application Verizon), fully supports add-ons for Droid (like Lapdock), which does not support Cyanogenmod 11/12, No need to waste space on the / sdcard to another system (/sdcard has only 8GB)

My plan

1) For additional ROM-slot clone Stock Rom

2) Replace AOSP/Moto apps for Cyanogenmod [Settings.apk almost brick my Droid - rapid intervention saved him, but Trebuchet.apk works very well]

3) Remove unnecessary applications to achieve as far as pure Stock ROM (like Nuance speech recognition)

4) Extract the Google applications - not everyone wants Google Apps

5) Other options?

I have no knowledge of how to make the patch (usually did Backup -> Restore), maybe someone knows and wants to help

I would like to know do you think?

[Motorola Droid 4] v8amg:
Sounds like a great idea.
[Motorola Droid 4] ferviverus:
I have some solutions have already been developed

http://speedy.sh/4aVMm/CMAppsStock.zip

Here you have Cyanogenmod programs that run on the Stock ROM (not all full)

I use at home Trebutchet Launcher and SMS / MMS application

http://gmclan.org/up6184_0_backuplist.html

If you have Root and Busybox - you can run my script

It is a program (recommended for people who have used Mentor's ROM), which excludes many unnecessary (in my opinion) function, Google Play or [you then turn 3 modules and have the shop back]

Be sure to have installed Trebutchet because it disables the built-Stock Launcher.

In fact, my script should not destroy your phone (factory reset should restore apps off my script, so you will regain the initial state) [However, you should have a backup system]

You can run the script in a terminal emulator spending (you can download it from F-Droid) - "busybox sh <script name>"

http://gmclan.org/uploader/6184/Screenshot_2014_12_29_21_38_54.png

I cannot replace all of Stock Software to Cyanogenmod, because my Stock ROM start bricking, so i replace only some sure software

Hey guys. I have been using PA for about a week now and the only thing i don't like about it is the battery drain compared to stock MiUI 36.

Here are my stats:

I haven't even used the phone much. Just couple minutes of COC on wifi. And in between i didn't even use it for a bit as you can see from the 2nd screenshot, I use greenify and have it underclocked at 1306 GHz and the brightness is low.

Is this normal because in MiUI i had been getting a lot more juice.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Logic717:
I posted this in the forum for the ROM I was using with no response so hopefully I can get one here. I'm currently running candy 5 with stock kernel and gapps.

Ok, let me start by saying I don't think my issue is rom specific as I've seen this behavior on all cm 12 roms. So if I need to send this to Q&A I'd be happy to so.

So I use the app gps status which places a satellite icon on the top left of my status bar when gps (true gps sensor) is in use. Via gps status I get a lock in under 5seconds. Now my issue is this. When I open Google maps, the location indicator comes up but NOT the satellite symbol. In Google maps, it finds my cell tower but NOT my actual location. I let the phone sit for 10 minutes and it never locked. Now when I enter a different address in the search bar and start to navigate, the satellite logo shows up and I have a lock on my starting spot within seconds.

So I decided to try waze just to see if the satellite icon shows up and sure enough it does and gps lock is within seconds. Again you need the app GPS Status and the setting that puts the satellite symbol in the status bar when actual gps sensor is in use.

I tested this with the nexus 10 also on stock rooted lollipop and both the location and satellite symbol appear. I've attached a screen from the GPS status app as well as Google maps so you can see the status bar symbols I'm referring to. Thanks to anyone who takes the time to validate what I'm saying. This time I also installed the app cool too since it shows how man satellites are connected.

Again I want to reiterate gps locks fine when in use, and navigation works just fine as well.... It's just on the main screen of Google maps and only with Google maps that I'm having the issue.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ek69:
I am so frustrated with this same exact issue! Any other map app find me in seconds. Google maps doesn't find me at all.

Tried faster gps app fix - no change

Uninstall Google maps using TiBU then reinstall - no change
