[MENTION=5186178]carliv[/MENTION]

Hi, I'm confused at editing default.prop. Do I need to replace only highlighted by you or I can replace everything relevant fromstock recovery to carliv?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
I advice for what I mentioned in my guide (highlighted). You can try other things if you want.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Mellow4767:
Ok thanks. Also if my device is running Lollipop 5.0.2 then will this porting work?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Well, my guide is for porting cwm based recoveries and cwm has stopped at kitkat. You can try to port for lollipop but I don't know how it will work. Also you can port a twrp for lollipop and that will work, but few things are different (fstab, init.rc) and you need to figure out what to do by yourself.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BouyaPK:
carliv Touch v3.3 can be used on a lollipop.

To cancel or deletel /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.0/mmc_host/mmc0 auto auto defaults voldmanaged=sdcard0:8,nonremovable,noemulatedsd Which is in ramdisk/etc/recover.sftab
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Yes, a cwm based recovery can be used with a lollipop kernel if encryption is not used, but there are few other things that need to be take care of. Anyway a twrp will be much better.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BouyaPK:
[MENTION=5186178]carliv[/MENTION] Thank you very much for the advice

Hello. Please i need help.

I have a Mediatek device with MT8382 Processor

Lollipop 5.0 Screen Size 800 x 1280 with a secured boot.img i have been trying to make it unsecured by changing ro.secure in default.prop

I managed to do this successfully with this tool and have made the kernel adbd insecure.

but tuto TWRP and CWM installers do not work for the device so if anyone can assist me with building a custom recovery for it i'll be grateful

this is a link to the boot.img, recovery.img and scatter file:

error

When I repack the recovery it says " ./.bin/mtkbootimg: No such file or directory". Help ....
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
You don't say much so I can only guess that you are using my kitchen, but there is something wrong: mtkbootimg was part of version 1.0 and 0.5 before but it is not in version 1.1 (current)... Are you using the old scripts with the new bin folder? Try to download the new version and unpack it in a clean folder.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] firephoenix3:
error again

I downloaded v1.1 but still when I try unpack the recovery image it says " line115: ./.bin/unpack booting: no such file or directory "
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Ok then you need to be more specific because I can't reproduce your error. I downloaded the kitchen from xda, from androidfilehost and even from github, unzip it in a new folder each and test it with a recovery image and all three unziped folders worked the same as you can see in attachments.

So, you have to tell me what linux are you using, where did you get the kitchen from, where did you unzip it and how did you unzip it. Also a screenshot with the error can help a bit.

Sir the folder RAMDISK is empty in the stock recovery and boot images. Please help. Here I have attached my files.

Excuse me dude, Could I you for my cause the files that I must marge in the carliv recovery? I've tried with many combinations...

My rom is Lollipop 5.1, and my device is a azumi a50c+

I am beginner in this....

check my images please:

could I replace the "carliv files" with the files following files of my recovery?

Files of my recovery for replace in carliv:

default.prop

factory_init.project.rc
factory_init.rc
enableswap.sh

If your device is LP, CTR 3.3 will not work. You will need CTR 5.7 recovery.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Milor123:
Thanks dude, I'll download the ctr 5.7.... but I've learned that I need a replace the "recovery.img-kernel" out of ramdisk folder, then my ctr works nice (in a kitkat rom)

Glad you got it working :good:

TWRP SDcard not recognized

Hey dude, I've ported a twrp 3.0.2 to my device (kitkat 4.4), all works nice, but when I try press backup, and select store, only shows the internal store...

NOTE: this works fine in twrp 2.7 but then try change to 3.0.2 the sdcard cant be select in the options

My partition is:

=================

Phone store: 8GB

Internal store >> 4.2GB

ext sd card (this is a internal partition of phone store) >> 2.33

System rom.......

=================

=================

SDCARD: 16 GB

THIS IS THE PROBLEM, In the recovery sdcard 16gb is detected in this partition in mmcblk1p1 but cant see the sdcard in "select store" option of twrp 3.0.2.

=================

What files of ramdisk should I modify?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kirito9:
Open the etc folder and edit the recovery.fstab and also edit the fstab file from the ramdisk folder of TWRP 3.x. Compare those files of TWRP 3.x with your stock recovery.fstab and stock fstab from the stock boot.img. Look at the sdcard lines.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Milor123:
Thank you dude, I've solved it

Note: this process require extract files of recovery.img, you can use CarlivImageKitchen

Device description: Azumi a50c + with a kitkat rom 4.4, mt6582.

What is the problem? : Twrp 3.0.2 not recognize the micro sdcard of 16GB

What is the solution? :

Add this line with the

flags

to the

/etc/recovery.fstab

files, change the mount point of

/sdcard to /external_sd

The mmcblk1p1 is the block of my sdcard:

/external_sd vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /dev/block/mmcblk1 flags=display="Micro SDcard";storage;wipeingui;removable

Problem Solved!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kirito9:
Great! :good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xdarthanonx:
It may be safer to explicitly specify device2 (a second block device the system attempts to mount if mounting the primary device fails):

/external_sd vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 [HIGHLIGHT]/dev/block/mmcblk1[/HIGHLIGHT] flags=display="Micro SDcard";storage;wipeingui;removable

With multiple external storage devices (internal storage + micro SD card), EXTERNAL_STORAGE should be the internal storage, so leave it as export EXTERNAL_STORAGE [HIGHLIGHT]/sdcard[/HIGHLIGHT] .
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Milor123:
Thank you very much dude, Maybe the most important was "flags=display="Micro SDcard";storage;wipeingui;removable"... I'll change the code like sugget you to me...

PD: How could I add a Xposed Framework in the twrp for automatically asks for install when flash a new rom? like Supersu that asks for "Do you want install supersu?"
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ThatKawaiiGuy:
Hey, I have this device, and I'm S-On. 25 bucks is a bit too much for me to spend on something I won't do very often like update firmware, so is there a way to go back to stock to update firmware with S-On? Im already running the stock the phone came with, rooted and modified with xposed tho.

Thanks.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Riff76:
Look for modified firmware and flash it in the bootloader. Hold on for the link

---------- Post added at 09:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 AM ----------

Flash the modified firmware for your phone (HKE or standard m8). See post one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ThatKawaiiGuy:
And I can do this S-On? Do I have to flash the RUU first then flash teh full firmware?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] pmacevad:
I too was under the impression that you had to be s-off to do this. I purchased the h/k edition but haven't done s-off cause of the 25 dollar charge to s-off. Got the same result for Firewater fit me when trying to run the exploit, which I'm guessing for those of us with the original firmware it may have worked. To bad the support was stopped. Feel like I'm being forced to pay for something that I've been able to do for free on every other phone I've owned with sunshine. Just my 2 cents and my own opinion. I'll probably pay for it but it seems steep.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Riff76:
Sorry my bad I thought you said you were s-off. My previous posts are for s-off. Good luck
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] ThatKawaiiGuy:
Yeah, 25 bucks is a lot, sell to a couple hundred phones, you already got 7500 bucks. Wish it was cheaper at least, like 10, or maybe even 15.

I actually managed to go back to stock with a RUU :D

I'll put instructions so anyone else who needs it doesn't need to look for 300 years.

This Instructions are for S-On only, I do not know what to do if you're S-Off, so don't follow these if you are.

This WILL wipe your phone completely. Not your external sd card though. Make sure you properly back up any data you wish to keep. And I am NOT responsible for any damage done to your device

1. Make sure you're S-On

2.. Go to your about phone in settings, check your phone version, should be like 3.123.2.434 (not same numbers, but same #.###.#.### format)

3. Get the proper RUU from the thread posted above.

4. If you're on windows set up fastboot, don't look here for that, find it somewhere else. If you're on other OS do the same

5. Plug your phone in, boot into bootloader, select "fastboot"

6. with your phone plugged in, type "fastboot devices" or "sudo fastboot devices" (yes, sudo) on Linux. If your device is detected, run "fastboot oem lock" or "sudo fastboot oem lock" on Linux. If it isn't detected, try USB 2.0 or making sure HTC Sync and PDANET are uninstalled and you have properly installed the drivers.

7. Once it completes, you might get an error sign on the command prompt or terminal, happened to me, don't worry if your phone is still on, just select "reboot fastboot" to make sure its actually relocked, it'll say it on the top.

8. Extract the RUU you downloaded to the External SD Card. Needs to be external.

9. Reboot back into your bootloader, it should see the file and ask if you want to flash it. Say yes.

10. Let it do its thing, it takes a while. When its done, you can reboot back.

P.S. Your recovery is now a Red Triangle with an Exclamation Point. Do not worry, it is the stock "recovery".
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Riff76:
Thanks for sharing your solution. As for sunshine s-off. It's a little steep however it worked out for me. My first m8bhad a defect and needed to be replaced. When I returned it to a sprint store, they checked the bootloader. Good thing I was s-off and was able to use the faux hboot to hide this info from them. My replacement was free when it otherwise should have been $650. Just food for thought

Dear all!

I was wondering if this is really the original standard email app (NOT the Gmail app!) for the Moto X 2014 after updating to Lollipop. It looks so weird...the header is orange, the font is black and the compose button is red...

Does anyone own a XT1095 Pure Edition with Android 5.0 and can confirm that it really looks that way and I didn´t install a version that has been tampered with?

Thanks in advance!

I have recently bought Vodafone Smart 4 Turbo (Coolpad 8865U) with Android system KitKat 4.4.2 . I rooted my device via towelroot without any problems and I would like to know If it is possible to flash ClockWorkMod (CWM) or any other reliable custom recovery mod in order to port a Custom ROM. I have been searching for weeks but I still haven't come up with any result, as my 8865U is not listed at ROM Manager application. My device is not listed at xdadevelopers forum too, so i can't seek for any solutions. Is there any way to port manually or I will end up "bricking" my device?

Well you're right about there being no support for your device. Not all devices here are supported. Your only chance is to try to build it yourself. here's a tutorial you can try if you're skilled.

[Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact Accessories] kandelai:
The Xperia Z3 line comes with the Playstation Connect to stream games to your Xperia device, and that is fine if you have a PlayStation. If you have a computer or gaming/media center with local games or running Steam, or both, and a Nvidia graphics card, you can create the same streaming experience as the PlayStation Connect setup. Here is what I have found that works.

You will need;

1. Xperia Z3 device

2. Gaming/media box or computer with an Nvidia graphics card and drivers with the Nvidia's GameStream software installed (included in Nvidia driver download.)

3. Gaming controller attached to the gaming box. (I use a wireless Xbox 360 controller.)

4. Limelight Game Streaming app installed (found in the Google Play App Store.) This allows you to connect to GameStream without having an Nvidia Shield Tablet.

5. Optional: mount for your controller and Xperia device; UtorCase (Search for your controller and Xperia device, they have them all.)

Use the Limelight app to connect to gaming box via your wifi network and instantly see all your local and Steam games.

That is it!

Surely the solution to your problem, is to remove the dots from your phone numbers ! Convert your contacts in Outlook to Numbers and Spaces only, as they should be, and everything will work fine.

Guys

I had this setup since late August and it was fairly stable until (I guess) some plugins were updated. Now I have 3-4 crashes/day from Genesis and Yahoo plugins (could be others, but I use these 90%).

Nothing in the logs or any indication whatsoever, but I did notice that if I power cycle the device (I have it on a remote controlled switch) it lats a lot longer.

I'm on the last rootable stock ROM 51.1.1.0_user_51107022

Anyone else seeing this?

SPMC 13.4.0

[MENTION=397727]Koying[/MENTION] released SPMC version 13.4.0 yesterday. Might want to try it out and see if it helps with any issues.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navigates:
I spent a long time over this weekend trying to figure out the perfect configuration that works for me.

Why not move to Helix. My recommendation is try that out as elmerohueso has fixed all the confluence ++ skins along with the root script to check for the power options.

As a recommendation, if moving to helix, go with the nightlies of November 28th as the latest and the release candidate has a recent playback to not work right. I've seen the following fixes by moving to helix.

1. kodi does not crash at all. SPMC was good but used to crash about 2 times a day.

2. Confluence ++ skin is now fixed to work perfectly with kodi.

3. Power options for root script has been fixed.

4. .ts file playback is no longer choppy. I had to disable either lightscribe or media. I can't remember and reboot.

New Features

I slapped 13.4.0 onto it...let's see how it fares. It was fine for 4hrs yesterday. I really wouldnt' give up Confluence++

Question for others here: how do I go about restoring FTV launcher? Do I just reset the defaults in Settings/Apps? Maybe having SPMC as a launcher is not the best idea.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] assumption:
I'll give 13.r a try
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ipse_Tase:
Well...the worst happened: SPMC stopped loading up, and as it was set as launcher, I found myself stuck.

The only solution I found was to load Kodi from adbFIRE and it became the default launcher, thus allowing me to get in and delete cache (which fixed SPMC).

The question remains: how does one restore FTV launcher as default?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ipse_Tase:
No one cares to help a fellow user?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjbxx:
I believe the best way to revert back to the Fire TV Launcher would be to uninstall any and all launchers.

Back up your SPMC settings→ Uninstall SPMC Launcher

Install non-launcher SPMC 13.4 APK → Restore SPMC settings.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ipse_Tase:
Thanks mjbxx...my concern was that if I don't restore the original launcher I will find myself unable to boot. On a regular Android box I can go and change the default program, but that's not the case here. Any file I can edit to make the FTV launcher default?
