Hi all,

I used to be able to log onto VPN without any issues. However recently I am having trouble connecting to the VPN network. I tried different VPN apps but none of it works. I have also installed Tun.Ko installer but there isn't any tun.Ko module which is compatible to my phone. Do you know how to resolve this issue? I really do hope to be able to use VPN again without having to do a factory reset. I have attached screenshots of the diagnostic report by DroidVPN for your reference.

My phone is Samsung Galaxy Note 4 International Qualcomm Snapdragon variant. Model no. SM-N910G running on Android 4.4.4.

Hi guys, I flashed on my S3 a rom based on porting 4.4.2 of Note2. With this rom have also installed the emoji's Galaxy S5 (first attachment), I don't like and I'd rather get back those that were base on my S3 (second attachment).

You know if i can take off and put those S3 original?

I do not want other, I like those S3.

Solutions ?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KeTuRr74:
Try emoji switcher from PS and choose Black/White Emoji's
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mozz89:
I tried with emoji switcher, but there aren't those who I say :(

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashankps:
Try emoji switchr from PS as [MENTION=5305791]KeTuRr74[/MENTION] said. Busybox installer is recommended.

The emojis you want (black and white) are available on any 4.3 TW based rom for s3.

[General Questions and Answers] fstarocka:
Hi all, so my haipai mtk6589 phone had terrible internal storage.. I made a cm backup (using v 5.5 <- is that an issue?), ran the app, selected 2.5gb because I have 780 phone and internal sd was app 2gb..

anyway - after that i tried wiping the data and cache partitions, fact reset and then when tried to restore my backup, i got cant mount cache errors etc. Ive been trying to crack this all day and my brain hurts.

thankfully i can still get into cwm.. I followed this guide https://www.google.co.za/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CB4QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fxdaforums.com%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D534714&ei=a6fPVOaJAYqxUYisg4gC&usg=AFQjCNGX6v2QMIwE5_W8TtpgCY0a4sUyqg&sig2=zfKe1mIOaBJsOWhRJpyGMg&bvm=bv.85076809,d.d24

and after getting countless errors, finally managed to get my mmcblk0 setup like his. I kept getting no disk label errors, and stuff like "you cant have a partition outside the disk" etc -whats odd is when using parted - the partition show as 3.8gb, which is odd because i always only had about 780mb internal and 1.9 on internal sd card -

ANyway - im still getting the errors:

E: cant mount /cache/recovery/command

E: cant mount /cache/recovery/log

E: cant mount /cache/recovery/log

E: cant mount /cache/recovery/last_log

im not totally sussed on exactly how the android fs works, but i am able to access phone via adb..

Parted shows this:

Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of com

Any ideas? im stuck and can go no further, ive tried countless things but going in circles..

fyi the backup rom i have installed/worked fine 2 days ago when i tested another rom - so im sure i dont have external sdcard issues or corruption...

I have the same question as you, were you able to find the answer? or how to root RIW Android 4.4.2?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zivan56:
I worked on this last year, hoping to have a proper TWRP build created. Instead, I've had no time, and just hacked up the Nexus 5 recovery image instead and integrated a skin with the right resolution. This only works with the v1 as far as I'm aware, but may work on v2 if they use the same partition layout.

I would recommend you test it first before flashing it.

To test:

1. Shut off phone

2. Hold down volume up + power until the Linux logo appears

3. Plug in to USB cable

4. Run: fastboot boot riv-r55-v1.img

5. Wait aboue 20-30 seconds until TWRP appears

I have attached riv-r55-v1.img as a .tar file..make sure to untar it first!

Works

- Backup and restore to bootable state

- MTP connection to transfer files

- Most things

Known Issues

- Reboot doesn't work most of the time, you have to take out the battery instead

- Some fonts too big and not readable, can view recovery.log to view it via ADB instead

- Can only backup to fixed location

Hopefully someone can port Cyanogenmod to this device. However, I am very skeptical, as they have ignored my GPL code requests (they have modified kernel modules that have the company name in them).

Q & A

Q: Where is the backup saveD?

A: Data is saved in /data/media/TWRP/

Q: Can i use this to install a root installer

A: Yes, you can install supersu, etc, as long as they have a flashable zip

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] philg2000:
Could I please be so greedy as to have a Orange-UK only thread? :)

I am been reading and searching in earnest to see what other peoples experiences are with the various Radio ROMs. It seems most people are happy with 1.38.00.10, although seems to be a few instances of people sticking with older versions because of battery life/drop outs/data freezes. But I am unable to establish what other people are experiencing in the UK on Orange's network.

I am well familiar with the Radio ROM 1.38 + WM6 - good or bad? thread, but not many people in there commenting on Orange UK.

If you are on Orange UK, please can you share you experiences here?

My own experience has been thus.

Before upgrading to WM6, was on stock M3100, which had Radio 1.06 I beleive. This worked flawlessy with push email (Exch 2003), and never had any problems at all with it. This was also the case when I upgraded to LVSW 20070315, leaving Radio Rom as was.

Then I upgraded to Black 2.0 last week, and did the Radio to 1.34 with it. I didnt notice any problems at first, or rather didnt take much notice of not getting email notifications whilst at work. But on Friday I realised the Data connections were freezing.

I have tried going to 1.38.00.10, to 1.35, back to 1.06, even 1.27. Have also tried going back to LVSW 20070315, and am now on LVSW 20070408

I have narrowed it all down to the "common" problem in swicthing between GSM and 3G. At home I seem to be between 3 transmitters, and swicthing is common. Hence the problems I was having Friday.

The Excellent commmgrpro has helped here. Also Bandswitch.

Anyway, with Phone set to GSM only I have no problems. Odd thing is, driving to Sheffield and back yesterday (dont mention the football!!), with phoen set to Auto, I had no problems at all.

Yet at home, and at work, on auto the data connection freezes. :mad:

So.... Whats everyone else using on Orange?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] freben:
i've been using rom 3.23.0.2 with radio 1.38.00.10 on a spv m3100. this device is been freezing like you described in your post, thing is, it's become unuseable since you have to reboot after the freeze and it happens almost continiously... driving me insane.

if anyone knows of a way how to get back wm5, i'd appreciate it!

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] crazyC:
When I upgraded a while ago I was wondering the same thing. The only negatives re 1.38 at the time seemed to come from orange UK customers so I went for the 1.27 radio and it seems fine.

Have not yet stepped up further, and at the moment, see no reason to.

Especially as I can even get the H now and then. (If it aint broke...)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Mark Crouch:
@Phil, I've "gone black" (v 2.0) with Radio 1.38.00.10 - only since Saturday, so it may be too early to tell. I've got a push email account with Mail2Web, which I don't tend to use that regularly - it's good for aggregating lots of mail stuff when I go away on business, but my data package ain't up to much (don't get me started :) ) so I only switch it on when required.

Since installing the new ROM/Radio/SPL, my M3100 seems to be much better than it was prior to the update. I've reinstalled all my apps (apart from PPCProfilesPRO - I'll do that tonight) and the phone seems really stable - no more random lockups when taking it off charge and only a couple of "slowdowns" when ending calls, or if Activesync'ing....can't really complain if I'm honest :)

I'll keep an eye on things - and maybe switch on the Exchange push email for a couple of days - and I'll post again if the situation changes.

Cheers,

Mark.

Yep...1.27 for me. No real radio problems to report.

Spent a couple of weeks with WMXL 2.0 and the last two weeks with Black 2.0. Both work fine with Orange with 3g (inc HSDPA) and voice. Direct push/web/pop email all fine.

One freeze this morning (first one in two weeks) but dont know if it was radio or os or an app?

Can;t compare with other radios but simply can say am happy with 1.27 (hence why I havent tried 1.38 etc)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sheep_head:
Having no problems with set up in sig.

had the freezing with the stock set up.

Could/should we be more scientific here and use one of the many web2.0 survey sites to do a ROM/OS survey to find the right mix?

with a little effort we could then find the most reliable Radio ROM and view by Country/OS/carrier/etc.

just a suggestion..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sheep_head:
@Mark,

try Orange World Browsing, 8ukp for unlimited data access 24/7

Give O a call on 150 and then the billing option, 4

Orange World Browsing is what is what the O rep told me it was listed as. I think one of the key points is the cost, it’s 6.81 exc VAT or 8 inc VAT, that’s the way to check you have the right package.

And you need to be on a 35ukp per month tarif or more to get it.

apologies for off topic post!!

(I was told it was Orange World Unlimited)

Sheep_Head - Well, I am definetely up for using a survey site - any recommendations?

I gave re-flashed my phone back to Black 2.0. Seems to be what most people are using here (IMHO). Have tried Radio 1.27, 1.38.00, and right back to 1.07.

With a totally clean device (i.e. straight after flashing), setting up the orangeinternet connection manually, the thing just wont connect to 3G. Only when I have Band set to GSM will it connect.

Jeez!

I am now in the process of going back to an Orange WM5 rom, to see if it makes any difference, (albeit the Romanian one, so will have to reset the internet connection).

Getting mildly frustrated now.:confused:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] philg2000:

Entered Orange Internet settings. And have gained nothing. COnnects via GSM, but not via 3G.

Grrrrrr....

Spoke to Orange CS - no reported 3G problems in my area (well, what about me???).

What's the panel's opinion on sending a phone back to O with OliPro's bootloader on it? (well, and the Romanian Rom, but they prob wouldnt spot that).

I have insurance etc, so would get a replacement in advance....

Hey guys - mega useful thread.

I 'thought' I had solved all of my woes and was feeling bloody smug with myself as I thought I had managed to keep the stupid questions down to a minimum. After reading this obviously not :confused: .

I am running Black v2.0 (happily) and the rest of the handset is as per my sig block but I have removed spb pocketbooks and replaced it with shell. I thought it was all working correctly but I am suffering the same connectivity issues as yourself (gprs and not 3G).

Also - and I have read the threads but still not working (was going to try again after a re-re-re build :D I still have no VM notifications.

Are you having any specific issues with it?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wberesford:
CrazyC,

I am struggling with the whole copying over of the .dll file in the widows directory. Like I said I have done a search of the wiki on VM notifications etc and followed the directions. I have attempted using Activesync but keep getting a response saying that the destination is in use. I have tried directly on the handset (not expecting it to work) and it doesn't and finally I tried by using Total Commander. Still no joy. I will keep going with it though as I was thinking about building again from fresh anyways, and then attempting the vm notification from clean.

Gonna wait out for black v2.5 before I do that however.

I'd really like to hear from anyone who has returned a flashed M3100 to Orange.;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] philg2000:
The only way I have done this recently is using Resco File Explorer. You need to go into the Options menu to ensure you can see all files, then copy the sms_providers.dll into the \Windows directory. It warns you, but if you say yes it lets it happen. I have done this numerous times (have flashed my phone about 10 times recently!) without any problems!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] crazyC:
First few times I did this, it just copied OK with the file explorer. Most recently tho it gave me the same error - so I went to the zip file on my ppc and told it to extract directly to the windows folder, said yes to overwrite and it did. Maybe worth a try. (install the certs first incase it makes a difference.)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] forza:
SMS Providers CAB

To make my life easier I put the sms_providers.dll from WM5 into a CAB. To install make sure you've installed the sdk certificates (http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=35814&d=1174572298) first and then install this cab - a soft reset is requested at the end of installation and is required.

I've tested this on the latest LVSW ROM and it works perfectly, hopefully will overcome peoples issues with copying this file.

So any Orange UK customers used the 1.40 radio - feedback looks good apart from something called MobiTV (Never heard of and don't use).

Just wondered as things seem to work differently on Orange sometimes.

Still fearfully keeping to 1.27 unless there is some positive feedback.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] wberesford:
CrazyC

I am not on 1.40 but I can confirm 1.38.11 is stable as you like and sig strength seems to be one hell of a lot more favourable since I upgraded from the Orange supplied 1.06!

As for mobitiv (www.mobitv.com) I know some people use it for checking the traffic and that sort of thing and that seemingly it is only in the UK supported by Orange - don't quote me on that though.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mrvanx:
from the feedback ive read and my own testing (in the last couple of hours) the 1.40.30.00 radio is good stuff. You can try it out and flash back to an earlier Radio if you wish dude
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] falum:
went from 1.06-->1.27 a few weeks ago and then 1.38.10 last thursday, to date no problems and since 1.27 better reception. A good test for a radio is my commute home since I always lose signal in a valley. Last radio just made it through without losing signal so sticking with it for now.

I have my "problem" sorted now....

Was suffering from serious problems with 3G connectivitey, but only for Data. Voice & SMS were fine.

In any case, long story short, I am now on a different phone, but still an Orange M3100.

Using 1.40.olipro, and Black 2.0, but have left Radio as stock Orange 1.06.00.00

No disconnection issues with data, voice, etc, working fine.

I do have a nagging feeling tho that my orginal problems were down to the Orange Network in my area, and would quite like to upgrade to 1.27 or even 1.38, to try and improve battery life a little, (maybe even 1.40 !!).

But I am understandably very nervous about doing so.

At risk of getting flamed, I am slightly confused at how I could go back to the stock 1.06.00.00 Radio Rom if I wanted to. WIKI seems to indicate can only use SPL or Custom RUU to go back to 1.07.03.10, and need Bootloader 1.04 to go to 1.06. Even then seems that 1.06.00.00 is not available as a download, only 1.06.00.10 which is not HSDPA, or 1.06.04.00 which has?

Help!

Can anyone reassure me that I can go back to the Stock Orange Radio ROM, and give me a pointer as to how & where?

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] rabdo:
This is not really an issue as I cannot think of any reason to go back to 1.06.00.00. I am using 1.40 (previously 1.38) which I upgraded from 1.06 - no problems. Just make sure you follow mrvanx's step by step guide to flashing your phone.

ps. your signature shows that you are already using radio 1.38
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] philg2000:
Thanks for that. Thing is, whilst most people seem to be ok with 1.38, or indeed 1.40, there are odd instances of problems.

In fact I am itching to try 1.40, but as I have already had problems in my area previsouly I would like to be sure of how to go back if need be.

Thanks for the reminder about my sig - updated now.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] crazyC:
