Hopefully....

this. ht tps: //copy .com /MWW6G8mEuvGtawGu is the tit backup of the systems applications (less the bloatware that I deleted before I decided it was a neverending task better left until we had a custom recovery available) Btw I have absolutely no idea of whether there are any limits (volume or otherwise) to the public access to that folder. Blast it won't allow me to post the url so piece it together!

I would point out the uploading it is really slow and keeps crashing, at present about 413Mb out of 475Mb has been uploaded and the brest is uploading at a rate of around 40kB/s. STOP PRESS .... now finished all 475mb is there

I tried the archive.

Unfortunately TB tends to freeze while restoring system apps (at 0% - even with other app processing option still the same) - i extracted all included apps and installed them manually.

The error still remains - last possibility in my point of view is to create an update.zip, boot into recovery as shown in the rooting thread and trying to install update.zip with CWM. After that the only chance remaining is to contact the support and get a replacement. :(

Nevertheless thx for your support.

Best regards

Sorry it didn't work. My suspicion is that it will be something in one of the various configuration files that don't get copied by titanium.

I will try to find the drivers for the camera and the entries in the configuration files for it and if I find them post the details so you can check yours against mine. Should get it done tonight so cross your fingers and hope.

Until we get an installable custom recovery solving things like this is going to be difficult. If you find such a beast let me know. I am in the process of installing apktool (h ttps://github.com/pqy330/apktool/tree/master/Apktool) which can unpack the boot.IMG and recovery.IMG but don't hold your breath

Someone as posted a cwm backup of his device on the root thread .... At http://acer.shreps.fr/dls/storage/A1-840FHD/A1-840FHD_1.042_AV0K1_RV0MRC02_WW_GEN1.zip

That might help .... Don't think you can flash it but it should give all the files.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] webwude:
I already sent it back to Acer. Now an official image is available on the support site... unfortunately too late. Let's see what Acer will say about the camera...
[Moto 360] NUGZZ420:
Well all and all this kinda bums me out but i'm kinda happy in the end because when I fist seen it I was thinking it was the watch its self but after looking at others watches with other bands on them. it appears my watch band is cracked (chipped). Not sure if I want to try and swap it at Best Buy, Add the 2 year warranty (Witch I usually feel is a rip off) , try and take the plastic pieces out, Leave it alone (but I still might add the warranty?)???? What do you guys think? Did anyone else get their extended 2 year warranty for 50$? I just have a hard time coughing that up when 299$ was allot for me to come off of in the fist place. In all reality I don't want to return it I love the watch and I'am really happy to watch Android wear grow through its early stages just as i did Android. but this is all a bit frustrating for a Device in some ways i'm so happy with.

P.S. On another note can't wait to see the New watch Faces I have herd about that we might see this week and Lollipop 5.0 but I know we have been hearing that for some time now but ill keep my fingers crossed.

Sorry not the best pics its late and not very easy to get a good pic at that angle.
[Moto 360] hush66:
I think you should try to have it swapped for a new one. The crack might have an impact on water resistance, especially when it's as significant as the one you have.
[Moto 360] vansmack:
This is super disappointing. I was hoping the plastic spacers would be the solution to the problem....
[Moto 360] wrichards:
i bought the watch thinking Hey its Motorola, the best design etc. only to find this VERY VERY flimsy cheap plastic back cover which flex and bends on any presure.. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!?! I waited untill they released the metal band version , paid BOOCOO for it only to find this weak spot on the back. Now I am paranoid about having anything including the band touch the plastic backing. Im expecting any day to have cracks in the back with normal usage. Motorola better replace this thing imediatly when I find ANY cracks, this better be a no brainer exchange at least up to a year after purch. I will not except any excuse for NOT replacing this thing with type of fatal flaw in the design. they knew about the backing. Im sure its fixed in moto2 coming soon.... this seems like the samsung 1 gen watch all over again....

Moto should fix the back ASAP and offer replacement backings or watches to anyone who has paid primi pricing for this first gen watch.
[Moto 360] hush66:
I was contemplating on buying the official metal band, as I thought that the spacers would prevent back cracks. Seems like I just have to wait for my Steelconnect adaptors to arrive.
[Moto 360] MrGorillaNoodles:
If you do submit it for RMA, make sure you do the option where you pay for your new watch up front then receive the refund once your watch reaches Motorola.

If you leave it up to Motorola to exchange your watch after they receive it you're going to have a bad time. I don't wish that 26 day experience upon anyone.
[Moto 360] NUGZZ420:
From what I can see after taking the band off its only the plastic pieces for the band that are cracked the back of the watch is fine.
[Moto 360] apallohadas:
Same. I already bought an aftermarket brand metal band and was about to spend the full $80 on the motorola band just to get that plastic spacer. Glad I saw this post first!
[Moto 360] vansmack:
This is good advice. I called over the weekend and chose the pay up front option. The replacement watch was at my house by Wednesday, and I am a happy camper. Save for my new fear of the plastic spacers not preventing more cracking....
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raonizal:
Hi guys!

I bought the Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910T), and it did not come with Portuguese language ('m from Brazil).

I've tried to translate app's (morelocale2) already replaced the ROM for the newest, but it worked!

Is there any way to put the language?

Is there any custom ROM or not, that works for my model?

Thank you!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ionut.arama:
Additional language added for Note 4 SM-N9100G without root

Hi,

I face the same problem with a Note 4 SM-N9100G trying to install a additional local language without to root the phone and to affect the warranty. The solution found on Internet is given below:

1. On Windows PC download and install the latest Android SDK Manager (Google for it).

2. Unlock the "Developer Option" on your Note 4 device.

3. Install MoreLocale 2 from Google Play on your Note 4 device.

4. On your PC go on the <Platform - Tools> subfolder from SDK Manager folder and launch a command prompt window here (press simultaneously shift and right click then select from drop menu).

5. Connect the Note 4 to PC though the USB cable on USB debugging mode (accept the debugging action from your PC on the popping window from your phone).

6. To ensure that the devices are properly communicating type <adb devices> on the Command Prompt window from your PC and you shall see your device listed.

7. Launch the adb shell from same Command Prompt window with the command <adb shell> then enter

Note: the top of the command prompt window shall indicate "adb shell" mode upon command input.

8. Input the following command line exactly as is given in the Command Prompt window then press enter (take care on CAPS LOCK):

pm grant jp.co.c_lis.ccl.morelocale android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION

9. If you don't receive any error on the command prompt window then you manage to unlock the MoreLocale 2 application on your phone.

10. Go to your Note 4 launch MoreLocale 2 and select the language you want to load, set it as default then you are done.

Hope that this will help.

Well... I did it for Hermes, tomorrow I'm doing it for Trinity, this is just here to make sure I get round to it... and to let you folks know it's in the pipeline :)
[P3600 Software Upgrading] garydempsy:
I was going to ask you if you had any plans for us. Thanks for the hard work :)
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Benzin:
Olipro: this will take you to the hall of fame together with Des, Pof, Lvsw, Dutty and some others.

Looking forward for your news. Thanks.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Des:
According to hermes thread this is simple rip of SSPL bootloader (my appologies to Olipro if it is not). Shuch tool exist for a long time but there are some reasons why it is not released to public. However now I'm forced to do so, use at your own risk. Development of better tool was in progress but now I'm not shure if I wish to continue with it.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] snorlax:
Hi, what's the difference between this SPL and the SSPL-TRIN.exe available in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=293632 ?
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Matterhorn:
Thanks for your contributions :) . I hope that you are not getting put off by the whole "pay for services" thing that seems to be going on. You are the one that came up with the SSPL utility and we are very grateful. You were the first to make a Trinity ROM change possible without a CID unlock. Keep up the great work it is appreciated.

Matt
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Des:
This one is bootloader image for flashing in to device, SSPL is the same image wrapped with stuff needed to start it from WinCE.

This is for those users who want SSPL functionality in flashed-in bootloader. Most average users (don't playing dangerous games with flashing probable crap to radio) won't need this.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] pof:
Technically it is half a rip off: Olipro "backported" your bypass-signature patch to hermes SPL-1.04, but he had to reimplement the "show itself as SuperCID" patch because this on 1.09 just requires a NOP, but the default on 1.04 is to assume CID (remember the CID checking bug in that bootloader?), so implementation is different. The good thing of having it on 1.04 is that it allows to access the radio bootloader and 1.09 doesn't.

I think Olipro released the SPL in the aim of helping, and also because he learned from you and had fun extracting it... this doesn't force you to release the Trin SPL, but I see it as a good thing... can you be more specific on these reasons why this has not to be released?

err... I hope you continue with it, don't want to discourage you on that... you made it possible the best it could ever happen to Hermes & Trinity, and you have all the support and respect of xda-dev community for that. Hope you continue with the development whenever you have time to do it, as you are a very valuable piece of the puzzle here :)
[P3600 Software Upgrading] saminegm:
Matterhorn is absolutely right. Great work! We all are very thankful. Keep it up!
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Olipro:
well, I'd just ripped the Trinity ROM to upload it...

but it's identical to Des's (except the version number) so no worries...

on another note; I think you'll find that I haven't actually released your SPL Des, I still have that on my computer; currently I've only sent it to pof and some guy who intends to play around with it... it's a shame someone has to be so petty as to decide to up and stop development of something just because someone ported their work to an earlier ROM, but if that's the way it's going to be then I guess it means that development will be slower as others are left to pick up the gauntlet :(
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Cr7pt0r:
I dont understand Des behavior... what's the deal of Olipro rip/port/transform Des's code to an earlier version ?!

Isn't this supposed to happen in an open minded/source community ?!

I thought you were all here because you share the same interests... This new "wave of paid services" is really messing up things among you all and specially the free open source filosophy.

We're very thankful for all your hard work so all you can expect from us is a deep respect. I really hope that you can cut the crap of your divergences to continue providing your amazing solutions.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] stepw:
Des's not hyping up his contribution to the community and is trying to be cautious with releasing something potentially harmful. Nobody wants more bricks here...

Rip-off or not, if it's likely to cause problems (and Des probably knows better than others), it's not safe to make it public.

There's a lot of buzz lately in Trinity WM6 thread and now with patched SPL here. A lot is yet to be done, probably more than already done, why the buzz?
[P3600 Software Upgrading] pof:
I do see your point here, obviously it is a double edge knife because it allows to easily brick the device if the flashed file is not well formated, but on the other side it also prevents the device to completely brick because of a bad radio flash which seems to be the most common brick for hermes devices, and it is starting to happen on trinity too. That's why first thing I asked was if it is possible to implement something to prevent bad blocks in NAND.

That's amazing, I hope you reconsider your decision as I (and sure a lot of other individuals too) would really like to see something like this happen.

We are curious by nature, I must admit second thing I did after you released SSPL was loading it on IDA (first was trying it on my hermes) and try to see exactly what you did. I just did it out of curiosity and trying to learn something from your impressive work. I was a bit disappointed because you didn't release the patches so I "had to" reverse what you did in order to understand it, but this was also challenging and fun for me. I for sure learned something on the process and finally I left it because there where some sections I couldn't re-base correctly on IDA.

I think Olipro just had the same feeling as I had, and he didn't release the Hard-SPL in the aim of ripping your work, but in the aim of helping the community reduce the number of bricks because of a bad radio flash, and he also gave you credit for your work, so I see this as a team work and not as ripping. I hope you can see my point too and forgive Olipro's audacity, and of course continue the development of such universal bootloader tool... in the end we're all here because we love to squeeze the devices and we all do this for fun and learning, don't you think?
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Des:
I is perfectly normal. Moreover if I were you that would be the first thing I'l done (to look what piece of s**t I'm going to run on my hermes) ;)

Why don't you asked me then ? I rarely refuse to explain how things works. But of course I'll ask you for some sort of NDA for a while :)

Rather strange. SSPL is ordinary executable produced by VS 2005. No disasm/debug protection. Loaders code is packed mainly to save 100kB of space and to hide code from too curious but unexpirenced eyes for their own sake as a second task.

Look... I'm not a DMCA, software patents, etc fan at all. But things should be called by their real names. Derivative work is something that utilises somebodys code but brings many very own features to it. I hardly could avowe hermes 1.04 bl as derivative work because it contain at least single additional bit of patch. But bit-to bit exact copy (except the version number) announced as

is no more then a rip.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Cr7pt0r:
Well now everyone knows that Olipro isn't the master mind behind the solution (because you're).

So, now we all know that the copyright is yours and we're thankful for that. And you've the respect of alot of other users as well ;).
[P3600 Software Upgrading] pof:
Because I prefered to have some basic understanding of it before asking, and wanted to find out by myself... I tend to learn more by looking than by just asking :) and of corse i feared the NDA :eek:

Yes, that was not the problem... if I recall correctly I managed to extract IPL and SPL with PE explorer, but then I wanted to compare the extracted SPL with an unmodified SPL, I set the base address to 0x8c080000 and found something around 0x8c040000 which I did not know how to interpret correctly... probably I was one of those curious but unexperienced eyes ;)
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Des:
then you should be glad to find it bit scrambled - there is no fun in reversing easy things :)

Dealing with sensitivity material require some level of conspiracy :) I wonder how long security bypass patch would work now (not closed in future roms). Of course there are many other ways to bypass [almost any] sec check but that was realy funny like a good joke :)
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Olipro:
Sorry, that's out of context; I'm not inferring anything more than that I extracted your patch, which might I add consists of a single NOP and two address deletions (although of course, identifying them is the kicker).

A while back... I asked you about it and was stonewalled by you; you offered me nothing, just some info that you were working on something or other further to it... I can only guess you assumed I'd be unable to extract the clean bootloader image and thus discounted me.

resultantly, I recently got tired of waiting and dumped the SPL. I suggest you head over to the Hermes forum where you will find that I haven't secretly ripped off your work and then called it my own.

I ripped the SPL out for myself, spoke to pof about it, and then decided that it'd be a good idea to port it back to the old SPL and release that, which I did.

I never got a chance to release this one, but all I was going to do to it was remove the button press patch... I did not plan to take any credit for this Trinity ROM whatsoever.

anyway enough of the *****ing and ranting. I hope we can move on; I appreciate you're clearly pissed that it got released as a regular NB Image but I only hope you'll get over it.

Also... I've made a modification to the SPL to ignore bad NAND blocks... not a clue if it works, need someone who's bollocked up their NAND to test it... obviously you need a way to get it on your phone first.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Des:
I've intentionaly quoted whole topic-starting post to not to be out of context.

the smaller is patch - the better it is. And those are not addresses btw.

You've got the point.

ps: Same things can be done in different ways. And I can't say that I respect ways you choose to help the comunity (this relates not only to ripping sspl). I do believe that you have good intentions in your mind but hell is paved with them. This is only my own opinion wich is not subject to discussion.

pps:

surely.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Olipro:
yes... I have no morals :P

ok, but seriously, I'm of that mindset where I feel it's better to have than have-not, thats all, nothing personal. but anyway... it's good to know you're still with us.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] ausdim:
So is this safe for flash on trinity's??

Or whait for a new version??

I say that cause i read that on readme:

And why you dont recommend?

What problem can be??

Thank's for all. :D
[P3600 Software Upgrading] forcedalias:
I agree, you're awesome Des.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Des:
It is rather safe while you are not trying to flash total crap. But if you would... :(

Version that was supposed to be released is much more safe but need an additional toolchain to prepare roms. And I was not intended to release it as patched htc bl (see post #13 for deitals). But now development of universal sspl is at least slowed down: really who need a fuzzy patcher while a human porter would do the same job as good or maybe even better ? :)

So use it, but don't rely on it crashproofness: there is no totaly foolproof things in this world, but this one have none fool protection at all.

Hey all, I have been flashing ROMs for a while now. Somehow, I created another partition (i think) in my phones internal SD. Its about 1.2 gigs, and some other space hidden. Some folders lead to others and right back around to the same folder. Can't find anything to help me out. Even Google couldn't help. My apps are somewhere buried in the phone, along with my backups. Now, I CAN get all stuff off no problem and am ready to fully TOT this thing. Will it totally redo my partitions? If not how do i format them to get back to out of the box? I tried the KDZ method, and i got back to stock, but the partitions were still messed up. Phone runs fine, it just drives me crazy with these looping folders. Oh yeah, on CM 12. Hope someone can shed some light.
[Verizon LG G3] dfogelstrom:
I have folders in /emulated (/0, /legacy) and each one respectively has a copy of /sdcard, and I have a copy of the EXACT FILES in sdcard0. Look at my permissions in /storage. (Middle screenshot, above)

Here are a few more...what did I do???
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
I'm not going to be much help unfortunately, but it is normal for those directories to point to the same files. I don't know if its the exact files or a mirror, but either way, that's normal as far as I know.

There are a few directory paths that appear to point to the same files.

[Verizon LG G3] dfogelstrom:
Yeah...I knew that from my S3...I was just comparing files, and the /sdcard0 is empty on it. I must have forced a copy somehow. I'm going to TOT, hopefully that fixes it...if not, my phone might have to get stolen...lol jk
[Verizon LG G3] dfogelstrom:
What does your /storage look like??
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
On this phone the sdcard 0 is not empty, I just looked. Appears to be a link or mirror of internal storage I believe.

Why do you think something is wrong? It would depend what you have stored there. I didn't realize but just looked and I have over 3g of files downloaded. That would explain why mine is much bigger than yours.

Okay, when I backup it doesn't go to my CWM or TWRP folder....it goes deep inside my phone, and I can't restore from either of them...no files found.

I have done every kind of format in TWRP and PhilZ CWM to no avail. I was figuring to TOT and start from scratch, that should wipe all my partitions clean but I'm not sure. I might have created a permanent partition. I'm not sure. I KDZ a few nights ago and that did not work either....
