[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] N4styN1ghtm4r3:
Alright, so I have a Verizon Galaxy S4, with 4.4.2 and an NC5 bootloader, I have it safestrapped, running Hypedrive 20. I was all excited when I saw that there was a Lollipop ROM released, because I have been anxious to try it. I downloaded everything in the tutorial, only to see Does not work with safestrap! That is when I started searching frantically how to get CWM or TWRP running on my device, finding disappointment after disappointment :(

So, my question is, has there been any way found to downgrade the NC5 bootloader to MDK? I see some posts/articles on downgrading to MK2, but would that allow me to get a CWM/TWRP up and running? Or has there been any way found to unlock the bootloader for the NC5?

If all else fails, maybe somebody could chime in about making a safestrapable Lollipop rom?

Thanks for any and all help, I'm so anxious for Lollipop its ridiculous!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hightower24:
We are stuck using Safestrap. There is no way to go from nc5 to mdk. There are some hybrids roms and a few gpe roms that are Safestrap compatible. But that's it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] riker147:
As of right now, there is absolutely no way to downgrade to MDK. Safestrap, and its limitations, is your only option. Believe me, if there was a way to Downgrade, you would, have found very easily.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] N4styN1ghtm4r3:
Now I'm thoroughly disappointed. :(

I guess I'll have to wait for a lollipop safestrap rom, which will likely be months away...

Would it be hard to port the Lollipop AOSP rom to a safestrap rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Raymondlikesroot:
It would probably be difficult.

First of all, at this point, we don't even know if aosp 5.0 could run with safestrap with stock kernel. Andriod 4.4 and 4.2 could, but 4.3 couldn't. And also, a lot of the devs for the s4 have already left so there are fewer people to work on any potential rom. Its pretty depressing, no lie.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Hightower24:
The problem is we can only flash TW based roms through Safestrap. As I had mentioned before there are a couple of Google Play Edition roms that will flash bit are a bit buggy. The closest we'll probably come are hybrid roms that have some lollipop features to go with TW
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] N4styN1ghtm4r3:
Well, I guess we'll have to wait for the official upgrade, then go from there.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karlipl:
Hi,

I want to use the Asus Xtion Sensor with my Nexus 10 and stock android 4.4.4 on it. The device is rooted.

When I try to run an example app in the shell as normal user, the app is not working. When I run it as root user it works an I get values from the camera. So I got the hint to run

mount -o devmode=0666 -t usbfs none /proc/bus/usb

in the shell as root.

When I run this command i get mount: No such file or directory.

Can somebody tell me why this is not working? May it be, that my kernel does not support the usbfs?

Regards

Karl

I've read alot of threads and for every question there's alot of them not answer. So I need a sugestion of which rom to use. The WM6 roms need patching and fixes so I trying to wait off before trying one of those. Is there any roms I should try or just say screw it and go for a WM6 rom? I don't want to have to apply a bunch of patches and fixes, just load the rom, install a fiew apps and be on my way. I just need a rom that is stable and fast.

[General Questions and Answers] Antagonist42:
I take it his phone is rooted? If so does either of you know how to use the command tools adb and fastboot on windows (I'm guessing you have windows PC?).

Firstly, search your devices Forum, it will probably already be covered there ;)

Second, ensure you know which partition in the handset the recovery resides.

Third, there is more than one way to copy/extract the recovery, ensure you read about which is available and which maybe the easiest to do.
[General Questions and Answers] sirantonycartwright:
The solution is to get the phone with the wanted recovery to install and app called "Back up & Flash boot recovery" by Gokshare. This will backup the recovery to the phone's SD. Move that img to a PC, then use ADB tools to fastboot flash recovery to the other phone. Voila!

[MX Player] martinkleinaustria:
Have an external USB harddrive connected via the "Paragon USB stick plugin" for Total commander.

Mplayer plays all movies with one exception: Recorded TV in wtv format files.

The same files play fine when I copy them to the SD card, they play fine also via the "LAN plugin" for Total commander.

They even play with VLC player even via this "Paragon USB stick plugin" for Total commander.

So the problem is only the combination of MX-Player and this specific plugin. I will report this problem also to them if you suggest this.

I attached a zip with the log files.

With kind regards

[MX Player] CDB-Man:
Wow, that is a unique issue. [MENTION=3850543]bleu8888[/MENTION] if you have any insight into this.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
Look like a network related issue

Total commander forwards a local host address to mx player i.e video url is like http://127.0.01:port/****

According to the logs, H/W decoder reverted with error since it's unsupported format. But, I can't find any error from ffmpeg (which will appear when S/W fails to decode).

So, in my view logs look like incomplete. But, developer may get some clue from your logs

Can you reproduce the issue & collect the logs again?
[MX Player] martinkleinaustria:
Yes sure. I attached again a log. But it will not make much difference. MX Player - after asking if the file should be started from begin or where I left it off - is just showing the round hour glass - and this forever. However I can click on the screen, I see that the SW Decoder is running. Then I click to create the LOG file. HW decoder is not available for these "wtv" files.

I uploaded such a wtv file to my google drive. Here is the link for you:

I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device and issue, so you can ask for help here,

You will want to include more details, like anything you did just before this happened? You will likely need to try flashing your stock firmware again, but I can't find anything on that on XDA. You could try contacting LG for firmware and flashing instructions.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=289197

it certainly doesn't look easy or simple to me though.

to add to the start menu, use file explorer, go to /windows/start menu/ in here you can add 7 items (excluding the programs and settings folder) (you can also add another folder, eg for your favourite progs, etc) just copy a link from the main windows folder list or from the ppc control panel applets.

you can simply add running programs to a hardware button the standard way - settings - buttons - and select memory

Hello...

I am trying to customize my (new) sony xpereia z2, (got it for waterproof), to as close as possible to a Galaxy note or tab, as far as it can go feature wise.

I already have a few floating apps:

-floating stickies-becomes complicated with too many stickies, swiping them to the side, it becomes (almost) impossible to find the one you want, needs a single view interface, for organized viewing/editing , as well along with the float feature.

-floating browser, and cobra - crashes with only 2 tabs, doesn't remember my websites.

-G-player - my floating window will not resize, pretty sure have gone through all the options in settings, it is stuck,

I am aware of xhalofloatingwindow and xmultiwindow.

- is the only difference between the two that halo floats and multi divides the screen in fixed way? or are there other differences in the two that I am missing...

- (also when people refer to 'halo', this is the same thing as 'xhalofloatingwindow', right? or is it different...)

- are these considered 'custom roms', or not bc only partial change..

- also TouchWiz... I have read that TouchWiz mimicking apps exist, and to look here, but I haven't found any names, thus far.

the features I want are: quick screenshot, and editing, and note taking next to the screenshot, in a logged/organized manner. I would buy a stylus too, if found if could find apps or roms that mimick the galaxy note.

I do like xperia's interface, lockscreen, homescreen editor set up, and buttons. It is not so much the interface that I am trying to change, but to get a few more features. but I would change the interface if that's the only way to do it.

another subject - copying images from web browser, (not saving them), this is impossible on android but have read with a custom rom (not sure which ones, all or only some?) it is possible.

also closing tabs in chrome. you have to close each one manually, obviously annoying, plus the fact that they all reopen if you just wait the program. which Roms (all or only some) can help this...?

please advise if you can ...

Thank you for any advice ....
