[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] npjohnson:
Whilst I've never done kexec hardboot stuff, I did get a kexec port running for chipset 3 model Intel series laptops (E6420 in specific), and got the trackpad working again after softboot (just a matter of inserting correct device ID's and their related calls, easily found on ALPS code repository). But that was all x86 stuff, never messed with ARM implementations, if you'd be willing to help catch me up to speed on ARM specifics, I'd love to help. I took a look at your Kexec source for the S4, but when I laid eyes on it, it was way beyond me by that point XD.

Also, what exactly are the perks of using softboot/regular kexec as opposed to hardboot? It seems easier to implement, and equally as successful (based on my limited knowledge).

On the subject of LED, if your interested in how to communicate with it, I'd contact either Franco or the Light Flow developer, both seem to have the correct idea in progress.

The screen issues are a wide variation of problems from my understanding, one being that adaptive brightness dims the pixels, and changes the RGB profile, causing the green hue many users are seeing (the most common problem, and the one I have on my device), so it seems like something that /should/ be as simple as editing kernel sources and disabling the change in RGB profile. Though, this would be way easier if we still had XPosed, which honestly, was perfect for situations just like this edit.

Nice to see an actual central starting place for Nexus 6 development. :p
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Surge1223:
Hey thanks, I was able to fix LEDs, testing latest edits for last_kmsg now...

About soft vs hard Kexec, its not a difference in functionality, its just principle I guess lol. Bringing the drivers back in a coherent state has to be possible....also for hardboot I'm having a hell of a time determining where to set the hardboot page address...I guess I've been on locked down devices too long.
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] ryanbg:
I'm working on getting Motorola's fastboot ramdump working, it should be pretty useful for this.
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Surge1223:
As an update I have reserved space for ram console. And natively added kexec in...next is to test kexec hardboot and hopefully get some sort of multirom/safestrap solution going (I'm more familiar with building safestrap)
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] ryanbg:
Great work, glad to see you found the right range to dial in for memory reservation.
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Tasssadar:
You do realize that ram_console has been replaced by pstore filesystem and you can find the kmsg from last boot in /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops (or wherever you mount the pstore fs), right?
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Surge1223:
Yeah, I'm not a fan of pstore, I care about more than oops. Last kmsg was much better (especially for android). It's unfortunate so much of persistent ram code was moved to pstore, I see you have multirom going.. Did you post the hardboot patch yet? Id be interested in seeing how you did it.
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Tasssadar:
What *more* are you talking about? As far as I can tell, pstore contains exactly the same information as ram_console did - kmesg from previous boot. In addition to that, I think I also seen it have another file specifically for last *failed* boot (like after kernel panic), can't confirm that right now though.

I will release the kexec-hardboot patch once MultiROM for shamu goes stable, I don't want kernel devs to merge potentially buggy versions of the patch.
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Surge1223:
My pstore console-ramoops certainly doesn't show as much information as the last kmsg I'm used to, and even with early printk I still don't see the boot chain execution from last boot.

This could be on me missing some parameters or such but I thought I had read the documentation on pstore thoroughly .. Maybe I'll give it another read though. So since your testing kexec, do you see kexec execution info/debug messages from previous boot in your console-ramoops currently?
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] r3pwn:
I'm pretty sure (on the Nexus 7 2013, at least) there is a "fastboot oem uart-on" command. Does this not work with the Nexus 6?
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] Tasssadar:
Oh, there is "fastboot oem config console true" (and bunch of other options, see "fastboot oem config"), thanks. Didn't know about "fastboot oem help", gonna remember that for next time. Still don't think bootloader should even do this kind of stuff though.
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] r3pwn:
I don't even have a Nexus 6. :P

If you get me an aboot dump, I'll check to see if there are any other relatively interesting commands (if you want, that is).
[Nexus 6 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]] calebcabob:
Hey, I hope you don't mind me asking about this here. I owned Samsung devices for years, so I sorta recognized the OP;)

I'm just wondering if anyone here might be able to tell me why my ROM/kernel won't generate a last_kmsg. No matter what, it's just never created. HTC M9 - CM12.1 based.

Is it possible that I'm missing a module in the kernel?

I haven't used skype on my cell phone in a while. But now I want to use it, Skype required an update, so I updated it and now it simply crashes. Is it just me, or is it broken for the last update of the stock rom, meaning that I need to upgrade Android if I want to use Skype on the Xperia Play?

As of today (local date:Saturday March 31st, 2007), the program Windows Live Messenger could not start.

I uninstalled it and then reinstalled and said: Installation of installation of windowslive.ppc2005_arm.cab was unsuccessful.

Is the program expired ??

I am running WM6 (LSVW)(20-3-2007) with Dopod 838 Pro.

Anyone experiencing the same problem? Thanks for any comments.

Best regards.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] arluckett2002:
I can't start it either. Don't know what the problem is.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ecips:
Same Problem

Same problem here.

WM 1.2 Black

SPL 1.40

Radio 1.38.30.10

I get a small popup that says "Error" and thats it.

:confused:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jasjamming:
guys,

WMLIVE beta I beleive has expired, as do all betas.

Also, MS track how many people log into from one beta install, so if it exceeds more than their predetermined amount then your account will be deactived through WMLIVE mobile.

just a thought.

wait for black 2.0, no beta here
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jac33au:
Didnt know it was still beta. this sucks i use it many times every day.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Murcielago:
Too bad, I've been playing with this for 2 days and it's closed now :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jasjamming:
too bad its expired,

for some reason mine still works :) oh yeh no beta.

just wait for black 2.0 in a couple days or so.........
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] alphonso:
same for me. I've been using it for a couple of months on my cingular 8125 wm5. It was a great app. hopefully microsoft will bring it out of beta for free download for wm5 devices. but I doubt it since the windows live app is a decisive feature between wm5 & wm6. But I stiil am hopefull!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jac33au:
I might have missed it somewhere earlier, is black 2 based on release wm6?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] mushroomphoto:
Guess we'll have to wait for Black 2.0 :rolleyes:

1.2 --> 2.0, no 1.3, 1.4, 1.5,.., ??

Thanks,

Mushroom.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jasjamming:
Yes thats right because BLack 2.0 is based on a NEW AKU and BUILD, hence Black 2.0

And there's me thinking it was just black 1.2 screwing up my device as i literally just flashed it about an hour ago.

Good to hear Black v2 is on the way :) I'm thinking of replacing different sections of my housing to turn my hermes completely black to match :D If anybody has any spare BLACK housing parts PLEASE PM me :P

I'm after:

M3100 battery cover, front fascia, back to front fascia (the bit that slide over the top of the keyboard)

TyTN keyboard surround with buttons etc, camera surround :)

Anyway enough of my rantings and back to the topic(ish)...

Any date in mind or are you going to keep us hanging on with 'a few days'? ;)

[Moto X Q&A] slimdizzy:
Long story short, got a brand new Dev Edition at work. Unlocked the bootloader from Moto. Downloaded all the latest TWRP img and SUperSU zip for rooting but TWRP never installs. Here is what the output from fastboot says:

C:\Users\***********\Downloads>mfastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-ghost.img
(bootloader) Variable not supported!
target max-download-size: 768MB
sending 'recovery' (9184 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.005s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.998s]
finished. total time: 2.006s

I then select to boot into recovery right from the bootloader menu and it just boots to the system. If I "adb reboot recovery" I get stock recovery and not TWRP. I undertsand the system is overwriting my TWRP but thats due to not booting into TWRP first after flashing so it can disable it.

I have read and read and read and found numerous people with no answers other that just keep flashing it. I have flash CWM/Older TWRPs/PHiLz multiple times with the same result.

Thoughts/help/anything? (yes i have tried different ports/cables/etc, same results)

[Moto X Q&A] slimdizzy:
UPDATE:

So I got a little bit closer, flash the recovery and then unplugged from computer, selected to boot into recovery from fastboot menu but now it just boots to black.

WTF is going on. I've had easier times with Samsung and LG products.
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
Sounds like you're using the power button instead of volume up to select an option in the bootloader. Reflash the recovery then select boot into recovery using volume up.
[Moto X Q&A] slimdizzy:
Ahhh FFS. That's it. Forgot about that. Been a while.

Cheers!
[Moto X Q&A] KidJoe:
I know you said using the right keys fixed it... But I'm just adding this tip in case others come across this thread...

We've also seen where some have had to reboot-bootloader and go into recovery IMMEDIATELY after flashing recovery or it wont stick. example:

mfastboot flash recovery twrp.img

mfastboot reboot-bootloader

{then use the phone's on screen instructions to select recovery}

This has happened when flashing back to stock recovery too.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zenrage:
My parents just got a new Unlocked US Edition Moto G 2014, and it is on Kit Kat out of the box. I was assuming it would just update to Lollipop during the first boot. But nothing, and checking for System Updates is not working.

We do not yet have a SIM in this new phone for several more days.

Since I am not there in town, I do not want to try and drag my parents thru the awesomeness that is sideloading an OTA.

So basically - Can Android OS Updates like Lollipop be downloaded strictly via a wifi connection (using the System Updates feature) on a SIM enabled device like a phone. Obviously it is possible on wifi only devices like tablets.

Does anyone have any official proof/documentation of how this is handled? Or even users posts showing it not working until a SIM is installed? I don't want to waste any more time trying to get the update if a SIM is required on a phone. Which is odd because my phone is Unlocked - so there is no "Official Carrier", so who provides my OTA? The carrier I choose to use? Motorola? Or Google?

Thanks in advance!

But with Recovery Mod I don't know how to do that.

Introducing ClickLight:

ClickLight provides the fastest way to turn on your device's flashlight. There's no need to unlock the phone, open the app, or find a widget. Simply triple click the power button at any time to toggle the light on or off. Please make sure the double click actually turns the screen from off to on, then back to off (or vice versa).

It may not work reliably on all devices but we are working to include as many devices as possible. If you have an issue, please email teqtic@gmail.com, or use the contact menu option from the app before leaving a negative review!

Options explained

• Except while in-call: Choose this if you have problems with the light coming on during calls due to the screen turning on and off quickly.

• Keep in memory: Shows a notification to make the service less likely to randomly kill the service. You may also toggle the light from the notification!

The premium unlock allows you to access all locked options on all of your devices, forever. The camera permission is required to access your device's flashlight.<br><br>

Common problems

• You are double clicking the power button too quickly, it is not causing the screen to turn from off to on and back to off (or from on to off and back to on).

• The time interval you have selected is too short. Your device's screen cannot physically turn on and off and back off that quickly. The speed at which your screen can cycle may depend on what app is on your screen at the time!

What happens? Does the light come on when you tap the light bulb or does it not work at all?
[Android Apps and Games] ExTrEmEe:

[Android Apps and Games] Magicman500:
Great app, but few bugs, at least on Note 4. If I start with the screen off and then press the home button and the power button (For instance, checking notifications on lockscreen and then turning the screen off), the light turns on. The home button on the lockscreen seems to be acting like the power button (in terms of this app) in a lot of different situations, but that's the most noticeable, and bothersome. There are also times when the power button double tap is just ignored, leaving me hitting my power button like an idiot with my flash light shining all around.
[Android Apps and Games] Flyview:
Hey, sorry about that. Yes, actually, the power button can't be accessed directly, it's using an interval from screen ON/OFF events to detect the "double click". If you turn the screen on/off too quickly (no matter with what button does that for your device), the light will toggle. As for it not registering the double click, it's possible that on that device double clicking too fast, doesn't actually cycle the screen. Can you check please?

That's good. Is the screen cycling ON/OFF or OFF/ON from the double click? If it is, how quickly is it happening (how quickly can it cycle the screen)?
[Android Apps and Games] tameracingdriver:
On mine a double tap on the power button does not turn the flashlight on IF the screen is already on. I got the impression it should work at any time. Works fine IF screen is off. HTC One M8 with Sense Lollipop.
[Android Apps and Games] Flyview:
Yes it should work both ways. Is the screen actually turning OFF and back ON after the double click? How quickly does it take to do so?
[Android Apps and Games] tameracingdriver:
Screen turns off, does not turn back on.
[Android Apps and Games] Flyview:
Right, so that's the problem. Can you try double clicking a little slower until the screen does come back on? Right now the critical time frame within which the screen cycling needs to happen is set at 800ms. I may have to increase this time, or put in an option, without confusing people.
[Android Apps and Games] tameracingdriver:
Hard to time it but I'd say the screen comes back on in less than half a second. When double clicking it'd definitely be less than half a second.

After further testing, sometimes it takes 3 clicks of the power button. Depends on if it on the home screen or lock screen.

But you just said the screen does not come back on after a double click, if it was already on. Please email me at teqtic@gmail.com and we'll continue the discussion there to fix the problem.
[Android Apps and Games] Magicman500:
I understand. I figured that was the case, just wanted to point it out in case it was actually fixable. I tried clicking at a variety of different speeds, none seemed to turn it off. That only happened once, however.

Also, a suggestion: How about having a notification when the light is on, that you can tap to turn the light off? That's how it works with the Note 4's stock system flashlight toggle.
