Bootloaders are locked to BOD3 after upgrading, meaning all the BOA6 stock images are now unusable. I've been stuck using the MOAR rom since the update came out and can't go back to stock, along with a ton of other people. Now I guess we wait for someone to post a BOD3 stock image.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ej72:
Many aplogies for my ignorance but I am running out of ideas. I wanted to try out Cyanogenmod 12.1 so I flashed philztouch recovery using ODIN and installed the latest CM 12.1 zip from official cyanogenmod download. I did take a backup prior to flashing CM however now I am unable to restore from the backup, it says it is not valid (!!!???).

Can someone please tell me how to get the my sprint GS5 back to completely stock; I don't need root anymore or custom recovery or any of that, I just want it back to how it was when I opened the box. I have all my pics/messages backed up so I am not afraid to wipe it completely. If someone can point me to a file to download and flash in ODIN or whatever needs to be done I will do it. If you need any information from my phone I will gladly provide it.

Please help, thanks!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdunham:
You will need one of the full factory tars available from the development thread.

And I've read somewhere that you may need to wipe internal storage coming from CM so backup what you want to save.

Just a warning, if you flash anything newer than OA6, you will not be able to flash back to older firmwares.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] szilamer:
Hi,

I found it very annoying to always close PIE after changing home page to opera.exe.

I don't know if somebody has already done it,(haven't found anything with searching) so here it is :)

And I am planning to rewrite my PIE button-> Ctrl remapper to WM6 so this was a great practice.

This program patches the already loaded keybddr.dll in memory by writing HKLM\Software\KeybPatch, PIEButton(string) value to keybddr.dll at 0x17120D4 adress.

Install :

--------

1. unzip kbpatch.zip and copy kbpatch.exe to Universal's \Windows\Startup

directory

2. Open your favourite registry editor and make KeybPatch key under

HKLM\Software.

3. Make PIEButton string value under HKLM\Software\KeybPatch with the path and executable to your new PIE button program.

For example on my Universal:

PIEButton(string) = \Program Files\Opera\opera.exe

LImitation : the length of the string must be smaller 55.

kbpatch.exe will warn you if you exceed this limit.

4. start kbpatch.exe. If everything is okay, this won't show you any notification.

5. Press PIE button

Your favourite program should start instead of PIE :)

Update ( PIE button --> Ctrl reassign howto)

---------------------------------------------------

1. Follow the above steps to install kbpatch.exe until point 2.

2. unzip simkey.zip and copy simkey.exe to Universal's

\Windows\StartUp directory

3. Make a new string value under HKLM\Software\KeybPatch.

PIEButton(string) = \Windows\StartUp\simkeys.exe

4. Change PieHomePage value under HKLM\HARDWARE\OEM\KEYBD to

the string "Ctrl"

5. Tap on kbpatch.exe

Tap on simkeys.exe (You will never have to do this again )

6. Try your new Ctrl button :D

Ctrl is sticky of course.

You can also try piectrl.cab. Just install and soft reset.

You can change PIEButton later, but to accept changes, you have to do a soft reset.

Envelope button reassign is coming soon :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] shlomki:
COOL! thanx!

hmm, makes me wonder, maybe now there's a way we could take control over the PIE button to map it as ALT key? (with PQz)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] szilamer:
Yes, It can be done.

The solution is very keybddr.dll dependant, but it's possible.

You can't do this with PQZ unless the author modify its code.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] szilamer:
Source code

Okay, here is the source code :

( dedicated to g0dspeed , but I paste it here, so anybody who interested can see it )

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
WCHAR string[55];
WCHAR origstring[]=L"\\windows\\iexplore.exe";
HRESULT res;
if((res=RegistryGetString(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,L"Software\\KeybPatch",L"PIEButton",string,54))==S_OK)
{
int size=wcslen(string);
string[size+1]=(WCHAR)L"\0";
DWORD *pointer = ((DWORD *)0x17120D4);
HINSTANCE hInst =LoadLibrary(L"keybddr.dll");
if(memcmp(pointer,origstring,21*2)==0)
{
DWORD oldProtect,old1;
VirtualProtect(pointer,size*2+1,PAGE_READWRITE,&oldProtect);
memcpy(pointer,string,size*2+1);
VirtualProtect(pointer,size*2+1,oldProtect,&old1);
}
else
{
MessageBox(NULL,L"I won't do anything :)\nYou are running this thingie on a wrong OS version or keybddr.dll is already patched.",L"Error",MB_OK);
}
FreeLibrary(hInst);
}
else
{
if(res==E_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER)
MessageBox(NULL,L"Error copying registry string value to keybddr.dll\nThe string value is too long.(Max 49 chars)",L"Error",MB_OK);
else
MessageBox(NULL,L"Error copying registry string value to keybddr.dll\nMaybe the reg.value doesn't exists or type error occured.",L"Error",MB_OK);
}
return 0;
}
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] g0dspeed:
thanks a lot.

I think if kbpatch.exe could find 'windows\iexplore.exe' (by itself) start from where keybddr.dll loaded address (in keybddr.dll's file size), it worked well in any environment.

I changed value 0x17120d4 -> 0x148135c and worked at WM5-Uni O2 1.30.162 cooked ROM.

#I have only EVC4 and couldn't build new executable file so I patched oridinal kbpatch.exe...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] airya:
szilamer, Thanks.

Is it possible also to remap MessageCenter and OK button?

Now i have "Ctrl" key with kbpatch + PQz_KEY(http://www.nicque.com/PQz/PQz_KEY.htm)

Any possible to have "Alt" key and "ESC" key at the same time?

:)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] kdskamal:
Yeah..count my request too for remapping the messaging button :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] szilamer:
That's a good idea. I think I will make it, maybe in next version :)

Evc4 is not a problem, only you have to change RegistryGetString, I think.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] szilamer:
Hmm, can you write me exactly how did you call pqz_key ?

( what parameters, what's your PIEButton value ? )

I haven't heard about this version of Pqz before ..
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] szilamer:
OK, messaging button is not a problem :)

I think I can make a new version at the end of this week.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] szilamer:
I've tried that pqz_keys but I think it's not good for this job.

You cannot make it to send a keyup message, so you will have a stuck ctrl button. Try simkey instead :)

Or do you know a trick for pqz_keys, that I don't know ? :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] grayme:
I've set the IE button up to Opera as instructed which works great thanks. :)

However, am I missing something in wishing that clicking a link in a message would open up Opera rather than PIE as it still does? :o
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] airya:
Yes, I got same problem with "key up" after my post. :(

I never heard about "simkey", any link?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] szilamer:
Simkey is my program :)

You can download it from the first post.

It currently accepts two type of parameters: Ctrl and Alt.

( Compiled directly for this task :) )
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] szilamer:
I don't know a good answer for this. :(

Maybe I would try to modify file associations in the registry...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] airya:
Cool! thanks.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] tsoifun:
Done as per the instructions on first page with "kbpatch". No errors, warnings but PIE button does not work at all now. Tried to put both - way to LNK file of Opera and full route to opera.exe - same result. Neither Opera starts now nor PIE. Anu suggestions?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] szilamer:
Which ROM do you have ? WM5 or WM6 ?

Same here - seems to be worse since the update to 5.0
[Sony Smartwatch 3] tu3218:
Yeah I only have used the watch during lollipop so I can't comment on how it was before. Wonder if its just a Sony SM3 thing or all wear devices running 5.0. Hopefully a fix in the process.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] nobunnysapro:
I'm fairly certain whatever was done to the kernel coming to 5.0 ruined the wake up time. It was so much faster on KitKat. If we really cared, we would start poking around in the kernel sources.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] tu3218:
Possibly underclocked the device? Reason people saw improved battery life after 5.0? Just a guess.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] dersie:
Same for me in LG-R. It is not a watch problem but an other wear bug. Wear seem hang some time because it lost it connexion with phone and take awhile before silent reconnect.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] tu3218:
Good to know its wear and not device dependent.

So, flashed cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-evita onto the wifes One X via recovery, then the google apps.

At reboot the phone goes to a black screen. When pushing and holding the power button the phone will blink the soft buttons 15 times and then reboot.

I restored a nandroid in the meantime, but would anyone have any idea what could have failed?

It's a HTC One X from Rogers Wireless in Canada, rooted via HTC Dev tool, TWRP recovery.

I flashed cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-evita because, as far as I know, the Rogers One X is actually a One XL. Would I actually have to flash cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-endeavoru?

i have noticed that, sense roms are not to loud, you can try to install a pure android rom like cyanogenmod, liquidsmooth, carbon rom.

honestly i love sense and would like to see a sound mod to gain the perfect loudness on my M8
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] styku468:
This only work on headphones, not on speaker, Ofc if U have set minimal loudness 1/15 in your UI and apply the gain in V4A then u will notice volume boost even on speaker, but if ur on Max in UI 15/15 then the volume wont boost. See for yourself i have checked it all already.

Cheers.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] youniqueg33k:
Hey, you have to go into the init.d tweaks and in several areas, change a few settings from false to true, and so on. If V4A is installed, it will contradict the pre-installed "Soundboost" software and cause distortion. I think the tweak is to turn LPA decode off., or to false. I'm in the middle of firmware updates otherwise I would post a screenshot or more particular answer. I will update the specifics soon for you.

Help please guys...

I am recovering from uploading a ROM not intended for my MDA Compact II. I have managed to get it to boot while plugged into the mains but it won't work off the battery (that works!).

i had once a Wizard that wouldn't pass boot and wouldn't charge. After a few unsuccessful rom installations the battery almost died and i could not proceed.

good luck

Any ideas to cheat the phone into thinking it's charged to fix the problem?
[MDA Compact II Software Upgrading] dave106:
if you perform the rom update package while the phone is in the bootloader it will bypass the battery check but you can only do this over a usb connection.

the problem is when the battery check is bypassed but there isn't enough power to complete the setup :p

I have an XDA Orbit coming next week as my work phone. Is it going to use the same battery?

If so then I should be able to get bootloader will using a charged battery from the XDA, or my phones battery charged in the XDA, so that would be good news :D

If not I still need to find a way to charge the battery. Best bet is another MDA II user I suppose.
