[Droid X Android Development] Oggie7797:
My droidx finally died after 10d 2h. Wifi was off but bluetooth was on and I listened to music for probably 4h so if it was JUST screen off idle it'd probably push 10d 12h. I'll zip up and post a media only build Monday (give or take) it won't have many changes but if you can't wait then in build.prop remove my 3g hacks and add ro.radio.noril=yes and remove bootanimation.zip from /system/media (fixes the bootanimation derp) and also change screen density to 210 (in settings) because 240 looks bad on the x while running this rom.....reboot and enjoy. That's what I'm gonna do in the media build. But if you can wait then just wait and flash it predone in a few days.
[Droid X Android Development] Oggie7797:
LS-Kanged v1.2_Media v1.0 is now up on my Gdrive. It's obviously 1.2 based so the only real changes is what's in my last post. A quick warning for anywho who needs me to specifically say this *clears throat* RADIO IS DISABLED AND YOU CAN'T MAKE PHONE CALLS INCLUDING 911 CALLS AND I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOU NOT HAVING AN ACTIVATED DEVICE TO USE! With that said, enjoy the update.

Next build will include my aero control tweaks along with some other build.prop and init.d tweaks. BTW for anyone who gets confused, the LS-Kanged folder in gdrive now has two sub folders: one for media only and one with working phone so we can avoid any mixups.
[Droid X Android Development] sabrosolatino:
Hi Oggie, thanks a lot for share this mediaplayer exclusive ROM.

¿Do you still need the aerocontrol.apk? I have aerocontrol from the m.ksy CM11 ROM. Or this next long holy weekend i will flash this ROM and install aerocontrol. Thanks again.
[Droid X Android Development] Oggie7797:
You still need aero control for kernel management since we use the modified aero kernel for defy. I have it included in /system/app already but it may need to be updated using the playstore after flashing. Regardkess of whether or not the apk needs to be updated, all functionality of the included one remains since the kernel hasn't had any updates and the included apk functions fine.
[Droid X Android Development] ultrasuper:
One missing piece

I really prefer LS over CM now.

Although I just noticed when bringing up Terminal, ssh is missing, whereas it seems to be an included binary in CM (or maybe it's something you added Oggie)

Is there a apk I can extract from the CM build to install here in LS?

ssh is a must for me.
[Droid X Android Development] Oggie7797:
Executable commands via terminal (or rooted apks) come from busybox which is stored in /system/bin or /system/xbin. Look at cm11 and see if there's one for ssh, just remember to fix permissions accordingly. I prefer busybox from....I forget the devs name...go to playstore and lookup busybox and download the one with a box looking icon with a cd. Install busybox from that and then reboot.
[Droid X Android Development] ultrasuper:
busybox makes sense... I used to use ConnectBot also, but prefer simpler now.. one less app.
[Droid X Android Development] Oggie7797:
Open playstore and search "busybox" tap first apk (by stephenson or something) and install. Open apk and hit "install busybox" then reboot. After reboot remove apk. :P
[Droid X Android Development] ultrasuper:
OK. Two things.

1) While busybox installer was starting up (before I told it to install), it was prepping for "smart" install (or something like that). SO, I was watching as it checked all the existing binaries on my system alphabetically-- I didn't notice ssh in the list and I was at "T" already. I decided to let it go on and I was about to tell it to install and the DX froze/rebooted. Perfect.

In the meantime, while the system was coming back up, I decided to check out busybox.net and ssh is NOT a part of busybox (at least that I can tell).

OK.

So I said "F- it." I'll restore a nandroid of CM-Kang 2.7 and just check out/grab the binary from there.

Now this part (which is OT to this thread) makes no sense.

2) I've got 2 nandroids of CM. One is the last CM 27 I used before moving to LS. It's got about 10-15 apps of my own installed in it.

I do TWRP, Advanced Wipe all (but SD card), restore, reboot.

It stays on the boot logo (Kang animated logo that is) for like 20-25 minutes. (Before I moved to LS, I'd switched between Kangs and regular CMs and it never took anywhere near this long to boot.) I power off, TWRP, rename bootanimation to .bak (I recall that it could cause issues) and reboot.

Same.

I try to restore a nandroid of another previous CM (I think maybe 2.4)..

Same $hit. Just hangs on the boot logo.

???WTF?? IDK

I restore the nandroid of LS12.

No problem. It's up in 5 minutes.

Ever heard of anything like this?

What are the odds 2 backups stored on the SD card got corrupted?

I haven't really modified any contents on the SD card much since those backups..

/stumped

This is crazy.
[Droid X Android Development] Oggie7797:
[MENTION=3453588]ultrasuper[/MENTION] too much to quote and just woke up so I'll try to remember what you said lol. Smart install is dumb so just do the manual one. Also, the nandroid may be corrupt, no big deal just flash cm11 or dig around inside the zip with solid explorer. Also bootanimation can be deleted without issues, renaming to .bak only leaves bloat. I'm sure I forgot something lol
[Droid X Android Development] ultrasuper:
I know it was a long post, lol.

tldr;

busybox doesn't include ssh, so it comes (came) from somewhere else on CM, which is why I decided to restore one of two (2) CM nandroids I have.

Both just "hang" on the CM boot logo (whether yours or CM's). Deleting/renaming bootanimation doesn't help. I have restored them in the recent past with no issues.

What are odds BOTH of my CM backups got corrupted? There are two (2) LS backups which work fine to restore.

Is it possible restoring from LS to CM is an issue? Can't see why.. ?
[Droid X Android Development] ultrasuper:
As it turns out, "zero"

YES

One CANNOT restore a nandroid from LS to CM-- nor CM to LS (the Kangs at least)

I did a "fresh install" of CM Kang over my LS, rebooted to recovery, and had NO ISSUES restoring my nandroids of CM's I which were hanging above.

No corruptions on my nandroids. Just cannot restore to a diff ROM without first doing a "fresh", "base" install of that ROM first.

Is this known??
[Droid X Android Development] sd_shadow:
I haven't restored many backups since twrp

Could try wiping caches, Android secure, system and data then restore.
[Droid X Android Development] ultrasuper:
Yeah, did all that, see my post where I stated:

Crazy right?

But a fresh install completes (np), then I CAN restore the nandroids of that particular ROM.

i am on liquid smooth 4.4.4, what is the system version for this rom? is it .621, i can not find it in the status page.

[Droid X Android Development] cfli1688c1:
sorry, i dont understand. I want to know what system version my phone is in, so i know which rom i can flash, as i read that some rom can not be flash with .621
[Droid X Android Development] palmbeach05:
So basically you're telling us you did not read the OP's instructions, which ties into CM11 install instructions, which tells you everything you need to know, but you expect us to take time out of our day and re-type or copy and paste info and links to tell you what is already posted here on xda.
[Droid X Android Development] sd_shadow:
If you have liquid smooth 4.4.4, you have twrp recovery, install [KitKat] LS-Kanged in twrp. That's it.

If you don't have twrp recovery you don't have [KitKat] LiquidSmooth KitKat- 4.4.4 for Droid X
[Droid X Android Development] cfli1688c1:
Let me try again. I have LS KK 444 installed.

But now I would like to flash one of the 2.3 rom.

I read that some 2.3 ROM can not be install on system version..621

So is it possible to see the system version on LS KK?
[Droid X Android Development] ultrasuper:
If you're running LS KK, then your device has already "made the one-way trip" to vers 621, which means you cannot flash anything other than CM11 based (only 2) or LS KK based (only 2) ROMs.

Those threads are all at the top of this forum (of which this is one).
[Droid X Android Development] Oggie7797:
My Kang is nothing more than kitchen work where I extracted and tweaked the original LS for the droid x by [MENTION=4255826]roeblatt3[/MENTION]. If you are running his switching to mine is as simple as rebooting to recovery, wiping everything but sdcard, and flashing mine.

Thanks lol

Incorrect, KitKat will boot on the .605 kernel as well.
[Droid X Android Development] Bobcus Leper:
KitKat will boot on any stock kernel version because it does not use the stock Motorola kernel. Heck, CM11 can be flashed from Eclair!
[Droid X Android Development] Oggie7797:
Technically it boots stock bootloader and kernel and then bootstraps instantly into our new kernel which in turn loads the system. But yes, theoretically it *should* work on any stock system as long as you have root and working recovery to flash twrp.

Hi, Great community.

I'm here with an issue I was trying to install Lg G3 Cloudy Rom for Lg G2 on my G2 D802. But My bad I'm in trouble now.! My phone stuck on very start. Getting message Flash Mode Started and Udc Start. Seems like I have flashed it wrongly .. very confused:confused::confused:

I have connected it to usb Data cable got some other notifications on cell screen and nothing else.

I am unable to get in for download or recovery mode tried power + up and down buttons already.

Please help Experts.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bender_007:
Unfortunately no. Did autorec d802 work for you or not? Try entering download mode or recovery, it should work since the ROM flashes only the kernel.

Hi XDA Community and Happy New Year!

This is my first post after I came across your community on Google and I registered immediately when I saw the level of professionalism you guys hold yourself to here.

Here's the run down, I'm a layman at this. I barely have any technical knowledge of working with phones but I am good with computers so I guess the apprenticeship begins here.

My sister owns a Galaxy S4 from AT&T and for a few days prior to it ultimately shutting down for good (bricked?) the phone had been acting up and operating very slowly. I tried all options in an attempt to turn it on and nothing. I connected it to the OEM Samsung wall charger and nothing happens. I also attempted to connect it to my PC and there was no recognition from either the computer or the phone. This pretty much leaves me to think it's either an issue with the microUSB port or there is another hardware issue.

I've searched the forums and attempted what I could (powering on trouble-shooting methods) but because the phone won't even turn on, my troubleshooting options are extremely limited. What can I do from here?
[XDA Assist] :
Hi,

Yup, without any sign of life whatsoever, there will be nothing to do. Have you tried pulling the battery, waiting a bit and plugging back in? See if it will even try to boot. Or try another cable and charger to charge it?

Basically, it's either gone from software frying it, or its the phones port and it won't charge and is completely drained. Or power button could be dead.

Either way, you likely need a service center unfortunately.

You can ask for other opinions here if you wish,

[AT&T LG G3] Cadenjs:
Many people have reported issues with MMS and the Google Messenger app.

I've tried a multitude of things, and the only thing that fixed it was to do the following:

Update APNs to the correct ones (in most cases, it will be nxtgenphone)

Name: AT&T Nextgenphone
APN: nxtgenphone
Proxy/Port/Username/Password/Server: Not set
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net
MMS port: 80
MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: Not set
APN type: default,mms,supl,hipri,fota
APN protocol: IPv4
APN roaming protocol: IPv4
APN enable/disable: APN enabled
Bearer: Unspecified
MVNO type: none
MVNO value: Not set

Next - DELETE ALL UNUSED APNS. This is the part that fixed it for me, and a few others have reported it working as well. I'm not technically sure why it works, but deleting all unused APN's fixes MMS (sending + receiving) for Google Messenger.

I've tried new ROM's, APN settings, and even some resets, and this is the only fix I've found.

Google is aware of the MMS issue and it will likely be fixed soon, but this is an instant option to get MMS back!
[AT&T LG G3] JeffDC:
I have an AT&T G3, and Consumer Cellular is my sub-carrier. On initial setup the phone finds and uses an AT&T APN, but typically the full and correct Consumer Cellular settings are not there, though the APN does work for the general phone use, LTE, etc, MMS did not work.

During the initial setup the phone will setup about 8 different AT&T APNs. I manually create a new APN for Consumer Cellular, and enable it. My MMS works fine. I have not needed to delete the other APN's. Good find.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dp_alvarez:
Hey guys,

I've been playing around with the firmware on my Moto G and I didn't understand some things related to bootloader/partition table version and I hope someone more knowledgeable can explain me some things, in a more technical way if possible. Links to documentation are also appreciated!

So, apparently you have to keep an eye on bootloader, partition table, and OS versions so they match. You also cannot easily downgrade bootloader versions.

Also, I saw that you can brick your device if you try to flash 5.0.1 ota, then go back to 4.4.2 and flash 4.4.4 ota because of mismatched bootloader versions and will have to wait for official motorola 5.0.1 images.

My first question is why does this happen? If I get stuck on a particular bootloader version (in this case 5.0.1 GPE, right?) why can't I just boot the corresponding OS, why does the device brick (is it incompatible bootloader and partition table, so the bootloader can't find stage 2)?

Second question, apparently you CAN downgrade the bootloader versions, but have to follow some specific steps and use specific files. Why is that? What checks does the devices makes when upgrading bootloaders and what kind of files allow me to downgrade while passing those checks?

Third, why can't you boot older android versions with newer bootloaders? Doesn't the bootloader just initialize some devices and loads the kernel, can't you modify and older kernel to boot with the new bootloader or chainload and older kernel from a newer one? Also why does the boot processes change so frequently when it should be something very stable?

Fourth, what is the rationale behind not allowing you to freely switch bootloader versions?

Well, thats it. Sorry for the long post and thanks to anyone that can help me :D. Maybe I should post this in android development instead?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demir76:
I follow .
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lost101:
I believe on Nexus hardware changing Bootloader is an easier process as those devices are deliberately Developer friendly. Motorola are open enough to allow unlocking, but as you have discovered, flashing an older Bootloader is a messy and dangerous process. Perhaps if enough people petitioned for a change, things might be different.

The Bootloader and Kernel are interrelated and that is why newer Bootloader versions break compatibility with previous iterations of Android (each with a unique Kernel.)

It's possible Kernel DEVs could offer a solution, but I suspect the reality is so few people care. The majority of users will get OTA Updates and never go back.
