Bro dont update stuff after i reply as it make me look bad unless you posted at the same time as me of course :laugh:

If you want me to do any thing thats cool with me as long as i am not flashing the stuff I have already tried :crying:

Believe me I have flashed more recoveries than anyone could think of :laugh:

adb cmd's are the way to go if we can get a response from them then there is no need for guessing :good: [MENTION=4893922]codelover[/MENTION] I flashed your recovery bro (3e) but adb is very very limited getevent can not function too :(

Touch still no still no sign of life. :laugh:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] codelover:
Opss sorry, my bad! I didn't mean to make you look bad, was adding extra info to the original post so i thought i could just update there, sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Ok, back to topic, i supposed most command didn't work as i just noticed i made a really stupid mistake in the test recovery,

anyway, the getevent was added for your convenience only, i don't even use/need that tool, at least for now.

I am more interested with the kernel log (dmesg) as well as the files in /sys/board_properties/, if there is any.

The earlier dmesg posted on this thread pretty much give me some clue where did it failed, but not why did it failed.

Now i noticed something interesting, it's 'meta_tst' that only exists in boot image, strings cmd on it shows something more interesting.

So here ya go for another test recovery, feel free to test it when you (or someone else) have some free time.

If anyone of you tested, please provide me dmesg log.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bigrammy:
Hi bro,

I flashed the recovery and all adb functions are working great :good:

I use getevent because it force loads any "available" input modules ;)

Like you say dmesg does not say why it failed :(

Ok, to recap what has been done behind the scene on my side, all doesn't work . . . :o

Built TWRP with . . .

TW_WHITELIST_INPUT := "mtk-tpd"
TW_INPUT_BLACKLIST := "gsensor\x0aalp_ps\x0aBMA222\x0aAP3426"

Built kernel with . . .

CUSTOM_KERNEL_ACCELEROMETER =[B][COLOR=Red]#[/COLOR][/B] da213 bma222E-new
CUSTOM_KERNEL_ALSPS =[B][COLOR=Red]#[/COLOR][/B] ap3xx6_mtk

CUSTOM_KERNEL_TOUCHPANEL = GT9XX
CUSTOM_KERNEL_TOUCHPANEL = GT9XX_hotknot
CUSTOM_KERNEL_TOUCHPANEL = GT9XX_hotknot_fpga
CUSTOM_KERNEL_TOUCHPANEL = GT9XXTB_hotknot

So i think we can rule out interference from sensors that causes Touch not to work on P6000 . . .

TWRP V2

Just flashed TWRP V2 as my recovery. Not convinced that backup is working properly. It reports only 40MB backed up and completes in 6 Seconds. Seems a tad ambitious given that CWM created backups of over 1GB and took about 2.5 minutes to complete.

Anybody else got any comments on backup?

But it's great to see touch recovery working AT LAST! Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this. Verily a tough nut to crack
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ac0935p:
Wow, that's scary. Tech getting efficient...

Gone back to CWM and doing a backup of my current config - just because I am ultra careful about this stuff. ;) Then I will reinstall TWRP and give backup and restore a whirl.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bigrammy:
Copy the <Name>custom.ext4.win to your desktop rename to custom.tar and open with winrar if you need any further proof all files are present :cool:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
For CWM it needs to be built in lollipop environment for the new functions (the new encryptions, etc), but there is no CWM for lollipop. Cyanogenmod ditched the CWM for CM12, and there is no more clockworkmod development. So, that means PhilZ too.

I built that twrp in cm11 and maybe if Santosh M will build it in CM12 it will be better, I don't know.

I don't have time now to look into this because I'm very busy with my own projects.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] HypoTurtle:
Thanks, for that - I see they've decided to go in house with recovery then...

From the recovery-log yea we thought we'd need a recompile (Use_Userdata_Encryption; needs to be Use_Metadata_encryption or something).

CWM/Carliv works fine on the L system regardless (only issue being data of course). Any suggestion as why the KK(touch) kernel won't boot; missing kernel config, hidden kernel sig. etc...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bigrammy:
First we should give feedback on mass to Elephone that we want a working touch in recovery eg fix the gt9xx driver as I don't think the Just5 used it and also to have the option to encrypt data and not force it on us ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] HypoTurtle:
If the final OTA is carried out correctly I believe the encryption will be user reversible - the default encryption is an android issue not an elephone one.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xenonism:
Hi, I installed TWRP (great job guys! :)) and tried to run the standard boot, system and data backup. It appears to work fine, but the data partition is for all purposes skipped (it goes straight to MD5 calculation) and not backed up. If I run a backup of data alone, it works. Am I missing something or could it be a bug? I'd obviously be happy to provide detailed information and help debugging if needed, this is just a quick heads-up.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] greekfragma:
Just wanted to let you know that I have succesfully ported Philz Touch recovery with the instructions provided by [MENTION=4478781]yuweng[/MENTION] :good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bayad:
Thank you for your work bro but where is the link to download it ? :confused:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] HypoTurtle:
[MENTION=4478781]yuweng[/MENTION]'s Auto Installer can be found here http://d-h.st/ZS7d - don't think there's an xda post for this version yet.

Automatic works properly and creates a bootable PhilZ (for KK).

[MENTION=4478781]yuweng[/MENTION]; apologies thought you may have released it somewhere - at the very least you'll get some beta testers --- just to confirm; I've only used it while on L (force-encrypted data); and the PhilZ recovery bootloops after about 20 seconds (just like it does with TWRP). It'll be a day or 2 before I can remove the encrypted data to confirm this is the problem.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] yuweng:
Hmm, its beta & i don't plan to public it yet but since you already post the link then appreciate all feedbacks pm to me as i don't want it to be OT for this thread, TIA . . . :cowboy:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bayad:
Ok, thank you bro :good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bigrammy:
Are you sure data was mounted and selected when you run the backup? Did you have enough storage space on your backup location eg sdcard?

Worked fine for me but a pretty large backup. :eek:

Is your data encrypted ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xenonism:
1) I didn't actively "mount" data, but it certainly was selected. The total size and partion count numbers were consistent with backing up boot, system and data; I got a data.info file, a data.ext4.win000.md5 file and a data.ex4.win000 file, but the win000 file is 39KB.

2) SD card space is not an issue, I have 50+GB free and data files take less than 2.

3) My data is currently not encrypted.

4) Immediately after the "failed" backup process, I tried again without rebooting or anything, just unchecking boot and system, and it worked.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bigrammy:
Ok not sure what happened but there will be a log file with the backup so have a look through that.

Just Toggle the switches before doing a backup to ensure all is awake as it were. ;)

I would also unmount from the PC during a full backup as your data partitions is mounted to the PC so you can view your internel_sd which of course is really data partition and not a physical sdcard. :good:

I also disable the screen sleep function as said in my OP.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] xenonism:
Thanks for the tips. I tried again, only including boot and data, it still failed. Data alone worked, again. The thing is TWRP thinks it's backing up data, but for some reason it's missing 99.9% of its content. See the relevant portion of the log here:

Anyone else have this problem :confused:

Ok I have managed to reproduce the error. :eek:

Can you try deselect everything else then retry just backing up data on it's own :confused:

Ok tests run and as you said it seems we must backup data or system on their Own.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dean.lev:
Hi guys,

So I have an Xperia Z2 running the rooted stock 4.4.4 firmware. I just did a Nandroid backup and am feeling adventurous. My bootloader is locked, as it's possible to root the Z2 without unlocking it. I found out about the CM12 nightly 5.0 ROM and was wondering, if I flash that through TWRP (which I currently have installed), do I have to unlock my bootloader? Or do I not since I'm already this far in without unlocking it? And I'm correct to assume if I restore my Nandroid backup that restores my old ROM right?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Geko-x:
Which is in your opinion the best rom to flash on the nexus 6 having stability no bugs and features????

Opinions pls
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eggydrums:
I think you'll find that for the most part, the majority of the ROMs here are pretty stable, but in the end it's up to you to decide which one you'll stay on. It's a very subjective choice :)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
At that my friend, answers this question perfectly.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JustusIV:
Liquid smooth :)

Or as stated any.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
There is no best Rom like what eggydrums said. Asking this question is like going into a car store and asking what's the best car. One rom doesn't fit everybody's needs. Some people look for minimalism, or features, or whatever. There is no best Rom. Every rom has its own unique features, pros, cons.

But if you're looking for opinions, obviously I'd say my rom chroma. I provide support and literally reply to every reply in the rom thread. But it contains the essentials, nothing more and nothing less. Doesn't fit everybody's needs.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Takuapina:
There're several ROMs which you can flash in order to see which one do you like the most:p
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I usually just post this from evernotes :)

"Best" ROM.

There is no such thing as a best ROM. The question itself is ambiguous. "Best" is obviously a subjective term.

What I want from a ROM may well differ from what you want from a ROM, ergo - what is best for me could be worst for you.

If you are asking what the most popular ROMs are, or which ROMs people are using, you can see which threads stay around on the first few pages (and have the most posts) in the Android Development or Original Android Development forums. You can also see what other people are running by reading the What are you running on your Nexus 5 thread.

If you are asking which is the most stable, being a Nexus device - they're all pretty stable.

If you are asking which is best on Battery, ROMs only affect battery if they have a feature that is badly coded. You will likely be able to read about this in the ROM threads. ROMs do not impact battery life. The only impact to battery life are your apps, your settings, how you use the phone and mostly, environmental issues such as Phone Signal.

For tips about improving battery life, please read [Battery Life Help] Troubleshoot battery issues here!

"Best" Kernel

There is no such thing as the "Best" kernel. What we all want from a kernel is different. Again, many people have the misconception that Kernels affect battery life. Let's get this cleared up. Although Kernel devs will build in optimisations and efficiencies that will improve battery life, these are very, VERY tiny...and if 1 kernel has these optimisations, they likely all have.

People will often say "Kernel x is better than kernel y for battery life". This is actually wrong. Kernels respond to user settings. Setting up the governor to favour either battery life or performance is simple enough to do, you just have to do some learning. The reason people think Kernel x is better than y is because developers set their kernels up with their preferred governor settings. This is what we refer to as out-of-the-box settings. The out-of-the-box settings for kernel x may well produce better battery results than the out-of-the-box settings for kernel y, which favour performance. The fact is, you as the user have the ability to tune kernel x or y to perform the same, be that battery or performance - so start learning how to do this yourselves - that way, you can choose the kernel based on the FEATURES you want, and not the fictional performance benefits of one kernel over another.

Hope this helps

I know this is 5 months old but I figure I haven't seen an answer anywhere so... with the last update to Windows 10 moving to Home Insider Preview build 10074 my Genymotion stopped functioning. I got it working again using the following steps:

1. Download VirtualBox version 4.3.12 from the archive site.

2. Uninstall whatever version you currently have.

3. Install 4.3.12 version.

4. Open it and then start Genymotion. (I am using 2.40)

5. I got the same engine error. Go in to Virtualbox and remove all the adapters under host-only networks (the main program preferences) except the first one. Edit it to have the correct IP and DHCP settings. Typically this:

IP Address/Subnet: 192.168.56.1/24

DHCP Server/Subnet: 192.168.56.100/24

Set the lower and upper ranges to .56.101 to .56.254

5. Start Genymotion again and bam it should start working. At least it did for me.

I have this strange issue with the light sensor, the reported lux oscillate to often, it can go from 40lux to 1lux for a split second then jump back to 40lux.

Sometime the sensor remain locked to 0 or 1lux, leading the screen to dim way to much with auto brightness on to a point it become unreadable, so I have to point the light sensor toward the window to unlock the reading, very annoying.

Best solution I found until now is disable auto-brightness, but it's also annoying to have to consistently adjust it manually.

Have the same issue with CM11 and CM12, didn't tested stock firmware though.
