Hi all

Just got myself an Asus TF103C and have been looking at other posts here like http://xdaforums.com/android/help/asus-transformer-pad-tf103c-tablet-root-t2802995/page5

which helped me to root it.

However I have been reading elsewhere that perhaps a custom Lollipop ROM would help things work a bit smoother.

I have found a couple of pages which claim to outline a method taken from the pages of XDA (although I am so far unable to find it on here) and linking to file downloads that seem a bit suspect:

http://www.rom-lollipop.org/mp3-0/asus-transformer-pad-tf103c-6409.html

and here:

http://lollipop500.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/upgradeupdate-transformer-pad-tf103c-to.html

Can anyone please advise me if these are likely to be legitimate or otherwise?

Many Thanks!
[XDA Assist] Darth:
Hi,

I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your device and Lollipop. You can ask about it here,

> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I won't comment on files you found on other sites, other than saying flashing anything is always a risk that will be on your shoulders , on XDA or other sites.... And no one will take responsibility for your device. Flash at your own risk. If it makes you uncomfortable, then don't do it. That's all I can say. ?

Good luck!
[XDA Assist] Northwinds:
Many thanks for the advice!

I will repost in your suggested section.

Cheers!

Hi Everybody!

Looking around for a soulution to BT PAN with Toshiba BT Stack on my Dell I played a while with the USB connection.

I'm using TomTom with BT GPS quite often the same time I'm online, so I tried to disable BT on PPC, Internet Sharing with USB, IP assigned, online - then reactivated BT and it works great both together - even phone calls meanwhile connected via UMTS to the internet.

So, using the build in function in WinXP and set up alternative options for your IP/DNS/etc works even (takes 3 - 5 seconds more to obtain IP) fine.

So no need any more to deactivate BT on the PCC before using internet.

Regards,

Alex
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Al-Dazzlez:
Hi All!

I had recently bought my mother an S4 i9506, and recently she has switched to a flip cover (with a magnet - what I think to have caused the problem)

Now what happens is if anyone's finger or any object for that matter covers any one of the two sensors next to the earpiece (the 2 that are directly next to each other with the right one of bigger size) the screen turns black until the object is taken away.

[EDIT] its the proximity/gesture sensor

Now this is really annoying and internet searching has turned up nothing of use to me, So any help is welcome.

It just renders the phone useless practically as the sensor seems super sensitive and I have no Idea of how to at least switch it off.

Thanks in advance

Hi everybody,

I try to get notification on my lockscreen (as everybody).

My phone is rooted and I installed xPosed framework with the xBlast module.

I would like to get the same result as this guy

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zoM-63mle4

Unfortunatly it doesn't work, the CM11S lockscreen is impossible to edit :/

I tried a lot of things like acDisplay ,nils etc... but when I wake up the phone this kind of 'external' lockscreen software appears 5 seconds after the classical lockscreen :/

If someone got an idea ? :)

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] maged rifaat:
There is an app that i use makes something only one time per device. I wanted to know what cause this to happen so i formatted my entire phone and flashed stock ROM by Odin then tried the app and found it didn't change.Thought it is about the ip so tried on another network and nothing changes.Tried on another device and it made that thing for one time only as usual and doesn't make it again so i thought it is about something in the mobile itself that is saved in the app server as used. something that doesn't change by changing ROM or data or kernel or anything like this. all what i know is the mac address and the imei of the mobile. i changed the mac address nothing changes. i then searched about changing imei i found it is illegal and have a big risk.

i wnated to know what are the other constants that doesnt change by changing the entire system and kernel?

and is there a way that a beginner like me can find out what the application read and save?

thanks in advance
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] TheFixItMan:
You haven't said what the app is or what you a trying to achieve - you have only said it will only allow you to do something once

More information is needed

Mac addresses cannot be changed - they are burnt onto the network card & are unique - you can spoof a mac address with Linux but I'm not going to say how or go into any details as that's not what xda is about

Your ip address can be fixed or varied - normally your phone will always get the same internal ip address & you will normally get the same external ip address from your default gateway under dhcp unless you turn off or reset your router

Without knowing what the app is & what you are trying to achieve I can't support you

And even if I did chances are you are trying to do something which is against XDA rules
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] maged rifaat:
About the app i didnt say its name because i thought of it being against the rules and because i wanted general information about how can any app track or guess that this is the same device after the changes i made.

The app name is whaff and the thing i am trying to do is inputting an invitation code in two different accounts on the same device which as i know is not against their terms&policies.

About the mac address i followed a procedure that changes the mac address in a file called .nvmac.info and after reboot the mac really changed in the advanced settings of wifi.

About the ip i think i am aware of what you say. I connected to another router of another wifi lan to get different internal and external ip.

thanks for fast reply and I hope i am not against xda rules
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] TheFixItMan:
I haven't heard of that app

If the app is not designed to allow multiple accounts you will not be able to do this

You could wipe data of the app & this will reset the app & you might be able to sign in with a different account but if you sign in via mobile number than this is pointless

These types of apps probably are setup using your phone number & it sends a confirmation code to your phone - no matter what you do unless you change your phone number you will not be able to create a 2nd account
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 and Duos 6102 Q&A, Help & Troubl] maged rifaat:
in this app i sign in using my facebook account and doesnt send any verification code to my mobile i made many tests and i deduced that the only thing that the app recognizes my mobile with is a thing that doesnt change by wiping everything in the phone and is saved to their server not my mobile so as i said all i know that could be it are the mac adress and the imei . they are constant by changing roms or wiping so i think when i open the app it compares one of the constant things in the phone with the saved things on their server. the app allows multiple account and i can use it with two accounts on the same device but cant input two invitation codes on the same device.

Edit: it is also not about the facebook account because i tried the same account on another device and it worked.(note:the app also accepts one invitation code per account)

i want to know how the heck can that app recognize my device although i wiped every thing and flashed new rom and signed in with different google and facebook account

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordGrahf:
Hello everyone,

I'm back to a nexus 6 after a very short stint with a 6+.

A little background for my questions: This is the very first time that I rooted a phone. I'm rooting to only install these 3 apps:

adaway

titanium backup

greenify

I do not plan on using any custom ROMs or kernels.

I see from all the guides and tutorials that people also create a custom recovery whenever they root. I haven't done that yet and wasn't sure if I had to. I would like to maintain the stock recovery that I have currently so that I can go back to stock if I unRoot. My questions are:

1. Am I wrong in thinking that I can still use the stock recovery if I unRoot?

2. When a new OTA comes out and I flash it (since I'm rooted an no longer can install them automatically), will that also upgrade my still stock recovery properly?

3. Following up on the previous question, when I upgrade manually because I'm rooted, would that be a fresh install where I have to go in and configure things the way I like them again (system settings, apps and their settings, root the phone again, etc)?

Thanks in advance!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
1. No, you're not wrong. Recovery will stay stock and can be used normally

2. You can't simply flash the new OTA. This will not work manually nor automatically.

3. All you need to do is not flash the user data image and you will not loose your data, settings etc. You will loose root however. See bellow.

Google posts android stock images for each device typically before OTA hits your phone. That's what you want to grab and use for the update. Just make sure you don't run the automatic scripts that come with those images because you need to avoid flashing user data image.

OTA zip file does you no good unless you get your system back to unmodified stock.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordGrahf:
Thank you sir!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crowbarman:
Based on the OP, it sounds like he has only rooted. Thus, the OTA will work fine. No need to flash image files.

Edit: I see that at least one other member has stated that an unroot still did not allow OTAs to function. That's a bit strange and unique. Not sure what root is modifying to prevent the OTA.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w4itg:
I'm kinda curious myself. I had no idea root killed OTA's. Maybe I wouldn't have done that if I knew that. I'm very new to the Nexus device. It's my 1st. I unlocked the bootloader and rooted already.

Sent from Mark's Nexus 6
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordGrahf:
This is pretty scary. So you can unroot and GI back to stock and still can't update in anyway?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kjnangre:
I have always side-loaded OTAs, I have never flashed anything.

After installing an OTA, on the next reboot, Android takes some time to optimize all your apps. Does this also happen after flashing a new system image? Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crowbarman:
not sure what you mean by GI, but according to some others, after uninstalling root via SuperSU an OTA will still not install. This should not be the case unless the boot or recovery images are modified. Easily fixed by following the procedures above to fastboot the stock images on your phone.

Yes, it behaves exactly the same.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
Root on Lollipop is not what it used to be. There are files that need to be modified in order to allow root. That's why this time OTA will fail if you are rooted.

Un-rooting however, will allow OTA as long as it is done properly and all traces are covered up and returned to stock. If it does fail after you have un-rooted, go back to the developer of that un-root method and let the know they missed something.

Here is the best way to un-root. Flash all of the old stock images besides user data image.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crowbarman:
That makes sense. Is there a manual root procedure or list of required modifications for root out there? I did some precursors searches but Came up empty. Can't tell what's missing in SuperSU unroot without those details.

Explanation from Chainfire:

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crowbarman:
Thanks for this. A good read, but I'm surprised nobody has demanded more details than 'patched the policies in SELinux'. Not that I don't trust Chain fire (I do) , but who really knows what has been done to our phones?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
That's the problem with Chainfire's work... he does not release source.

Again, best un-root method is to flash original images less user data.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordGrahf:
Thanks for sharing this info. Its a bit concerning tbh. Is there a cleaner way to root other than using superSU?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsanity:
I'm afraid not but Chainfire's is probably the cleanest possible. Koush was the one with an open source solution but he hasn't updated his to 5.0 yet.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crowbarman:
There is an argument that publishing the method would allow Google to close it that much quicker, I suppose.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chainfire:
The base changes and reasoning for those changes are actually documented on my website. Specific policy adjustments are present in plain text in the supolicy executable, as any hex editor will show you. Those who really wanted to know rather than whine about OSS, know.

By far most policy adjustments just drop audit log output for contexts that are already permissive, though.

All that information is still completely useless unless you understand SELinux in detail and how it's implemented on Android, though.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Taomyn:
I assume that the encryption doesn't get in the way of being able to flash the images?

When I went from 5.0 to 5.0.1 on my old Nexus 5 all I did was flash the two new 5.0.1 images I extracted from the full factory image, then re-rooted. This is far cleaner than reverting back to the previous image then doing an OTA. I've not had to update my N6 yet so I don't know if my method will work still, but I hope it does.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crowbarman:
Thanks for the additional information.

I did spend a fair amount of time reading your documentation but failed to utilize a hex editor. I am not 'whining' about the lack of open source, rather, simply mildly surprised, but your website aptly describes the challenges with 5.0. Many are used to various root methods being available.

Your solution is fine with me.. I love your work.

Edit: I thought I'd add that the discussion has devolved from the OP, which was whether an OTA can be applied after uninstalling root. The answer was no, due to the unknowns about what still might be modified following the uninstall via SuperSU.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evancg:
I got a good deal on an open box WiFI only Galaxy Tab S 10.5 at Best Buy. I've been trying to put it through it's paces to make sure there wasn't a good reason it was an open box unit. So far all is well, but I can't tell if I'm getting a shorter battery life than I should. I read reviews with people talking about 8 - 10 hours of local video, but it's so hard to know what else they did since they don't detail exactly what they did very often (brightness level? Video used? Airplane mode? Task killer preventing anything else from running much? etc...)

Anyway, just to get a ballpark, I charged mine to 100%, left it charging for a little while once it hit the 100%, and I've been watching Netflix on 50-70% brightness since I took it off the charger (and a brief 10 minute period when the WiFi slowed down). It looks like it's going to manage about 4 and a half hours of streaming Netflix over WiFi after a fresh system restore (so, some Gmail and Google Sync activity in the background, but nothing else extra installed).

Does that seem low or similar to what others would expect with non-stop Netflix streaming?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
Well I stream on YouTube with 30 percent brightness and get around 8 hours as this tablet is really bright for me. No mods are any changes. When I tweaked the kernel settings I got 9 hours screen on time. I measured these by watching/looping a YouTube video continuously. You'll start to get more after a few charging cycles since your tablet is still new.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evancg:
Unfortunately it seems like something else is up with this tablet. As soon as I install any form of battery monitoring widget or app, it starts randomly rebooting and the battery life remaining percentage jumps up after each boot. It may not be the battery monitoring app actually causing it - but it seems to only happen when one is installed (and I've tried a few).

Seems there probably IS a reason this was a returned open box unit. Oh well, guess I'll exchange it for a new one tomorrow when the supposed one year free Netflix deal starts so I can get in on that promo.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evancg:
Just in case anyone sees this and wonders the same thing - after returning the above mentioned open box unit and buying one new, I conducted a similar test under similar conditions (good WiFi connection streaming Netflix around 50% brightness with a recently factory restored Galaxy Tab S 10.5).

After 5 hours, I was down to about 60% battery - so clearly the open box unit had severe battery issues.

I wrote an Android application that control an RC car. The phone and the car communicates by bluetooth. I have tested the application with several Android based phones. The Os version was 5.0 and lower. I had problem with only one phone. That was a Nexus 5 with the newer version of Android. After the new update arrived to my phone, i just updated my phone. I changed 4.4.2 to 5.0, I have an LG G3. Unfortunatly after the update the problem occured on my phone too. The problem is that after the phone connected to the car the data send is getting laggy and slowing down and the car cannot be controlled, sometimes it work fine for few seconds. On every other phone I have tested the application it worked fine.

Anybody knows anything about that problem?
