Off to a good start with the K1-T

Hi

I just ordered a K1-T last week and am waiting for it to get hear and I want to I guess get off on the right foot, so ware do I start ? Root it, put on recovery and back it up ?

And then move on to a custom ROM ?

I have never had grate luck backing up phones in the past seems that once you wipe it there never the same. and on one S4 I had I did not know that if I updated it that I could not us a custom Roms

and it was realty tough to UN-update it.

and I it looks like on (Need-ROM) a lot of Roms are pre-rooted and recovery I don't know how that works? You need root and recovery to install any thing don't you?

my last PH was a note 3 and it went for a ride on the roof of my truck.

I have been wanting a K1 scene it first came out, and now I just don't want to brick it

my wife is not to understanding about that sort of thing.

So can you please get me on the right track with it thanks –Rick

I have been following all the threads I can about the K1-T on XDA but I don't know my way around

and of if I need to contact any one else. hake, i don't even know ware to look for this reply.

( i am clueless i guess ) :eek:

Sorry I am a vary poor speller

and if you can email me that this not got though.

Do not update to KitKat, do not flash a custom ROM. Just root. Phone runs best as is. You may miss XPosed at first, but there's a lot can be done with root alone. Just clean China apps.
[Android General] alpastor:
OK , so you are saying if it is not broke don't fix it, :o once it is rooted uninstall the bloatware ?

what about auto on-line updates, shoud i prevent it from updating its self ?

from what i have seen i looks like a nice OS out of the box, a little plain maybe but nice.
[Android General] Poppeye0:
If it comes with JB it will not update itself to KK. Run any updates from OTA, though.
[Android General] eben80:
Yes OTA updates are the last thing to worry about when it comes to kingzone [emoji16]

[Android General] bmg002:
I recently put a custom recovery on (recovery.img which is a TWRP based recovery which was available on the Cyanogen Mod thread for this phone) and was about to install xposed on the Kingzone K1 Turbo. But I had a question: will it work if I am running with the ART runtime? or am I about to brick my phone?
[Android General] eben80:
If you install the Xposed meant for lollipop then it will work.
[Android General] Poppeye0:
Xposed will switch to Dalvik if appropriate.
[Android General] eben80:
Correction it depends on which ROM you use. With cm12.1 you can use lollipop with art and xposed no problem. I'm using it right now.

Hello, I have tried disabling the weather apps (as the weather app is listed as the main battery life killer) - forcing deactivation, disabling, but it's automatically re-starting itself (whenever I check back, it's activated again).

Do you know how I could remove it forever?

(In the battery display, a few miliseconds before the "Weather" caption and icon pops up, there's "org.chivin.weather" caption - I haven't found this package or string anywhere else though, including Google.)

Thanks in advance...
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] cyberkeeper1:
Using ifconfig Android to enable or disable a network device will effectively control it's powered state. I know this because I am an advanced Linux user. The basic function of ifconfig is the same between devices/architectures, and since all Android devices are based on Linux, i see no reason why this cannot be done.

Currently, when you shut off your wifi or mobile data, its never really off. To confirm this, I shut off my wifi, turned my phone to airplane mode to make sure I wasn't connected, but when I arrived home again later, I still received a couple of new messages from my yahoo mail and kik. My first though was "... The heck?" I knew I wasn't supposed to be able to receive anything. I even had autosync turned off also for good measure. I couldn't explain it at first... Upon checking the timestamp, it revealed to me that I received the notifications the exact moment I arrived home, but the original Sent time from the source is when I was not home. Remember, all data was turned off by me and I did not receive anything the entire time i was out. (airplane mode, and i have no active phone service)

I double-checked and surely enough, my settings were still all off according to what I could see and verify. That tells me it's not really off and it knew I was home and connected to wifi anyway briefly, even though I had it off. That tells me that even though I turned off the wifi and mobile data and set the advanced settings to never "always allow scanning even while turned off" for location services, its STILL on!! Unacceptable. Deceitful. Wrong. When I tell it to turn off I expect it to stay off, dang it...

Talk about unexpected battery drain. Imagine being comfortable in knowing you've shut off all these things, to then find out later that these settings are present just to trick you in to letting your guard down! The question is, why would Google put in place these settings if only to be overridden anyway? There is no reason except their own sneaky one.

My goal here is to recruit someone to build an app or widget for rooted users to physically disable the device via push-button widget or app, not just disassociate from any given wifi AP or mobile data service. (wifi_dassoc kernel command) Anyone with some spare time and knowledge of Android programming and use of ifconfig is welcome. I welcome more than one person also. A team even... Haha. You guys converse and figure it out. I'll be watching, and Thanks! Hope you find this to your liking and interest.

My phone was ok. I installed cwm recovery by mtk dorid tool. But , I wanted to install TWRP recovery by a pc software- during installation a warning message appeared and I clicked ok (something formatted – I did not remember). Then I lost my mobile network signal, null imei and null baseband. Then I install N9500_MTK6589_Miui_Revolution_4.5.23_Cwm via CWM recovery (2 times, but system closed automatically. But, third time after installation phone totally bricked ). Basically phone starts with startup sound, but with crushing screen. I was able to connect mtk dorid tool and it says Model: N9500- null baseband-null imei, then I tried to Install CWM recovery. Then phone totally bricked without starting. I tried everything from google to solve. Then I was able to firmware upgrade – stock rom (Only one time). Now, stock rom is not downloading. I used all sp flash tools. All the times one error appears –Brom Error: S_FT_Enable_DARM_Fail (4032).

Please anyone help me. (My Pc Detect My Phone as preloader usb vcom port, I am using windows 8.1 64 bit, no issue with driver software and sp flash tool)

Device Name: Symphony w 92, MTK 6589 , 1.2 GHz ,Quad Core , 4 GB rom . 512 Ram, 5 inch Capacitive Full Touch, (854*480),8MP Primary (Flash light) + 2MP Secondary.

Hi guys, I recently bought a Moto G from Flipkart. After one week of use the phone has killed my sd card. My sd card no longer works and I am planning to buy a new one. I have a few questions

1) Which SD Card should I buy? Are class 10 cards supported? Any bugs? I read somewhere that Moto G has compatibility issues with Samsung Evo microsd cards. Is that true?

2) I read on a lot of online forums that Moto G LTE (1st gen) has a serious issue with sd cards. People are reporting dead sd cards or sd cards don't work on their device (especially class 10). Does Moto G suffer from this issue ?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KrishnaSagar:
I'm using a Transcend Class 10 32GB in my device (Also purchased from Flipkart). No issues so far. Been using it for more than a month now.

Also if you are experiencing issues with class 10, try lower classes, you won't notice that big of a difference in speeds till Class 6.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeknight11:
No, I was using a Class 6 card, but I read somewhere that Moto G has some issues with Class 10 cards. Btw, how much did you pay for the card? If you could provide a link, that would be very helpful

Hello Forum,

Since last week I've been searching how to recover Alcatel OT900 (AV 2.3.4) which is now stuck (i assume semi brick) phone after hard reset.

Below is the status of the phone

*FIRST ///PHONE IS NOT DEAD :angel:

* have no recovery but recently rooted (cannot go to recovery mode)

* when going setup (after boot)

error the setup wizard

(process com.jrdcom.jrdsetupwizard) has stopped unexpectedly.

FORCE CLOSE

* OTU upgrade fail (network connection error)

* by pressing vol - & power & home keys computer (Win7) detects

ALCATEL HS-USB QsBLoader 9002 (comm port)

*When OTU loads and tries to connect to the server then the above driver details vanish from the device manager.

* When powering on as normal Computer tries to install driver but soon shows disconnected

* On Fastboot - vibrates only

Tried several tools but no result there any proper solution for this ? I mean through Windows ? Your step wise guide is highly appreciated.

PS Same problem as : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1597847

But can't access fastboot. I came to know that SP flash tool can address this, but what to use in scatterloading? Since there is no scatter .txt files for factory FW or most of the custom FW. I have tried to create the scatter file from MTKDroid tools. but device not connected. I figure out that device is connected only through comm.port but not as usb device (while booting normal startup and pluging in usb the phone is blank /OFF) :confused: Did anybody else having same problem? Any alternate solution?

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johann_London:

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johann_London:
I'm sure you can buy the flaps from a supplier somewhere, but it's a new phone and that is definitely covered under warranty.

Just go to www.sonymobile.com choose country and your model and then go to contact us. Choose chat support and explain to an agent. They will arrange for the phone to be repaired.

It takes about a week - that is the worst part.
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nobby00900:
Or less you want to return it to Sony I would buy a new flap off the Internet. Or maybe you could glue the metal back on.

[Samsung Gear S] Dagaz:
After having a few issues with my Gear S I thought I would share some tips in case others have an issue. Please add your own tips to help others.

Set up email on phone (S4) but Gear S does not vibrate on email, but does pop up. Other notifications vibrate ok.

Turns out that if you set the notification on the phone to none (in samsung native email client) the Gear S will not vibrate. Even if phone is silent and you have chosen a melody the Gear S will then vibrate.

If you have a BT headset connected to the Gear S it will only work when the phone is connected remotely not by BT.

If the Gear S is connected by BT and you answer on the Gear S the audio will route through the Gear S and you cannot use the BT headset. If you answer on the phone the audio will route through the phone.

Two Possible work arounds

1. Buy a multipoint headset and connect to phone and Gear S (I havent tested this but should have a new headset arrive today so will update)

2. Permanently forward calls to the Gear S phone number but does mean you have to have the GSM from auto on and off to always on. (So far no noticeable battery drain from this)

Hope this helps out a few others.

Thanks

Dagaz
[Samsung Gear S] nk7com:
Thanks you for the notification tip.

Regarding the BT headset case, there is also a scenario where the BT headset is connected only to mobile device and the the device is connected by BT to Gear. Then if you opt to reply or initiate a call from your Gear, you just tap the small icon on the bottom left corner and you keep on using the BT headset although you originated or answered the call from Gear.
[Samsung Gear S] richierich118:
How do you do this scenario. Every time I try to answer a call thru the watch the audio goes thru the watch and not the bluetooth headset. LG tone pro 750 is multi point
[Samsung Gear S] nk7com:
I use a "single" point BT Sony BT headset (MBH20)

I have paired it only to the mobile device (Samsung Note 3 Neo)

The mobile device is paired to the Gear S through BT 90% of my day

When I either answer or initiate a call using the Gear S (through the Note 3 Neo SIM), I get a small icon, at the lower left screen of Gear S, depicting a headset.

If and when I press this icon, the voice which you correctly state that "...goes thru the watch..." is transfered to the BT Headset. So I do not have either to reach for the mobile device or to go on with the "audio which goes thru the watch".

I have not tried to use a multipoint BT headset. I will do it later and tell you how it behaves.

The only, very annoying, situation that I have not managed to sort out with this watch, is how to terminate a call either initiated or answered through the watch. The initially available phone screen, making available the green (CALL) and red (END CALL) icons, disappears a few seconds after I initiate (or answer) the call through the watch! There is no watch gesture to make it again available. I need to reach for the mobile device to terminate the call. Any tips on that?
