[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Did you ever get the layers you wanted applied correctly on this ROM?

I'm testing SlimLP right now and I'd be happy to create a list for you. What exactly is CMHW?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
CM-HW is essentially CM's implementation of the various technologies around Doze in LP. Samsung has its own, Google has one and so on. Effectively, this is a way to reduce battery consumption in standby mode.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] m1batt1:
I don't know if it is part of CMHW but I have found a feature on Pacroms that I love and wonder if you guys might implement. They call it live display and it changes the color temperature from day to night. You can set it manually to each setting or have it set automatically based on time of day. You can also customize color temp. It's similar to f.lux if you've ever heard of that
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cLogic:
that feature is also in cm12 .. I think LiveDisplay is simply part of lollipop
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Yep I believe it is. I too am waiting to see the extent it goes to. Or how much our hardware does support it.. Other devices have reported hotplugged cores being shut down on standby and frequency throttle.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
I don't know if these are considered to be "Slim Features" but these are the options (and fixes) I'd like to see added to this ROM (if possible):

Fixes

1. Reduce the extra large gap that is created in the Status Bar by choosing text instead of a battery icon

2. Screen casting is delayed and buggy

Features/Options

1. Add a way to determine number of contacts stored on phone and/or per account. CM added an additional “Groups” tab to the Contacts app which displays this information.

2. Long press volume keys when screen is off to seek music tracks.

3. Add In-app Search as an option to be set to one of the hardware buttons in addition to Search/GoogleNow. (see Cyanide L ROM)

4. Vibrate when connecting or disconnecting a power source

5. Configurable vibration intensity

6. Configurable fill color for battery icons

7. Add the option to completely disable the notification/charging led during downtime

8. Configurable toast animations

[MENTION=3639717]Perseus[/MENTION], thanks for bringing back the ability to fully configure the Back, Power, and Menu buttons. Most ROMs totally neglect the Back button. I truly appreciate all of the work you've put into this ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Thanks. I have passed the Fixes to Core Team along with a request for customizable colors for Battery. I do think Vibration intensity would come with CMHW. I am having issues with its integration. Remond me about it after I post CMHW.

Personally I hated #1. I effectively manage via Favorites and Speed Dial.

I think #3 is unlikely. Slim doesn't go there as its deviating from core principle. For #7, See https://review.slimroms.eu/#/c/3770/

#8 is waay down priority list as that's mostly AOSP.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Thanks for your help as usual, my friend. :)

Just curious, why do you hate CM's additional Groups tab? For me it is helpful because it lets me know if *all* of my contacts synced properly. I use CompanionLink to sync contacts from different sources. If you have another way to display contact counts, that will work for me.

#3 is not a deal breaker for me because I am able to set long press Menu to In-app Search using Nova Launcher. Having that option built into the ROM would be nice.

Customizable toast animations is also a nice-to-have feature but certainly not required.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] LambdaStrider:
Enabling the Navigation Bar doesn't disable the HW Overlay Buttons; is there any other setting I need to change to disable the Overlay buttons?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
CMHW Coming your Way in the form of Live Display. Combines Previously known Gamma Control with Color Calibration and Temperature.

I will be uploading the build shortly.There's an easter egg in this build somewhere. It has nothing to do with Live Display. One Cookie for the first one to find it. :D

Disclaimer/Clue - The Egg isn't like Google's egg where you fast click on About to open minigame. Its just a fact buried someplace you'll have to find out. :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MetalHead66:
Cool, gives me something to do on my S3 tonight while I wait for my hard drive to decrypt. Busted my MBR somehow.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] critikality:
Flashed the latest Unofficial today and i must say i am really impressed so much, the hardwork put into this Rom. Thanks so much [MENTION=3639717]Perseus[/MENTION]. I think i have everything i need in the rom now, so it's gonna be my DD.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
Do please note, I took out RRO Overlays as a Precusor to TRDS
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sjamie:
Are you saying this build already contains TRDS or that's coming in the future?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] critikality:
I am really not fancy of themes or overlays, but i do love TRDS cos' of its smooth transition between Day & Night. Looking forward to seeing it implemented.... Keep it Slim.

Edit: The Stock Slim Kernel is so awesome, i don't normally use stock kernels but this is very hard to let go. Have not even installed xposed and greenify and it's flying....LOL
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Perseus:
No it does not. I will include TRDS in the next build.Kind of sitting on the fence with Popcorn while it shapes out.

You've got the other half of the Cookie from @sixgunmojo

On a serious note, can either of you please let me know how's LTE and Signal Strength for you ?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] critikality:
my network provider is not on LTE but AFAIK signal strength on 3g or 2g works great.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaxHoss:
Hello Note 4 Friends (:

So I recently rooted my Mom's Galaxy S4 for fun, and installed a Lollipop ROM. It's Cool AF and I want stock Lollipop on my Note 4!

Before I go on with rooting my device and installing the custom rom, I have questions! (:

1. What will I lose if I go on with rooting then installing a stock Lollipop ROM? Will my S Pen literally not do a thing? Will the IR Blaster on the top of the device not work even with apps from the play store that control the IR blaster? Basically, what will I lose and not be able to replace or find very similar alternatives to? (IE: I can easily replace S Health)

2. How safe is it to root and install roms on the Note 4? I've rooted several devices in the past and installed custom ROMS, but it was well after their original release date. With the Note 4 being somewhat, recent, how safe is it, and are the ROMs *perfect* (Nothing Broken)?

3. Can I essentially "Save" my device completely before I install a custom ROM? If I really dislike the rom for some reason, is there someway I can have an exact save of my device with Stock Samsung Touchwiz, etc etc? All my apps and everything saved?

4. Are you rooted? Using a custom ROM? Lollipop? I'm curious as to how your phone is set up, and let me know why!

5. Do you recommend a certain thread on here/way for me to root my device, and also do you recommend a current Lollipop ROM that is very stable and very.. "stock Lollipop?"

Thanks everyone, XDA is always awesome d:

Have a great day and smile if you're reading this because it would make me happy ^_^
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] llawen:
Rooting is very safe. As for saving your stock rom, instal TWRP. Make a backup. You can always restore backup and be back to normal. As for spen, not sure. Never flashed lollipop rom.

Phones nowdays are near impossible to totally brick. Soft brick yes. But you can flash stock firmware and recover quickly.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LaxHoss:
Is there a certain reason you've never flashed a Lollipop ROM?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millerboy3:
its not officially lollipop is likely the culprit there, I flashed a CM12 (lollipop) rom for about 2 hours. Lost tw spen functionalities and couldn't use it as a DD because of that. Others have different reasons.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XDA Visitor:
I am not technically astute and am not sure what you require in "software configuration" but the device is pretty much as factory supplied and is only a week old- I am not really familiar with it and was exploring a bit when the line appeared. Does this mean it is faulty ?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hkk1644:
I have read about a number of different solutions to achieve a live tv feel to the television when using an android set top box. What is the experiences of the people who own a nexus player or a android set top box when it comes to live tv? I would like to be able to turn my tv and nexus player or android set top box on and see live tv streaming whether its in combination with an additional device, hdhomerun, tune n view, another ip tv service, some way to accomplish hdmi pass through? The box has been out for quite some time now and I am surprised that there is no clear solution to this problem(#firstworldproblem lol) . Any suggestions and or input would be appreciated. I bought and returned the nexus player and would like to give it a shot again.

Thanks in advance
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] michaelpgarcia308:
A week ago, my 2 year old daughter was using my HDX7 under her profile. It was set up using Amazon protocol and she did not have administrator access. When my wife looked a few minutes later, she saw a gray Kindle Fire logo and the word 'erasing'. It was stuck in that mode for about 2.5-3 hours. Finally, my wife called Amazon 'tech support' who gave her a bunch of instructions about holding down the power button and volume button. She followed their instructions, and a gray logo appeared with the word '[fastboot]' on the screen. It has been like that ever since. Upon numerous calls to Amazon, they have accused us of rooting the Kindle. It has never been rooted before. No one in our family knows how to do this. Also, this just happened 35 days after the warranty. There seems to be nothing Amazon can do. Apparently, I can't even send it in to Amazon for them to repair. They claim they don't fix them (even though they sell refurbished ones).

I have tried following numerous forums with failure. ADB gives me a 'device not found' error and any other attempts have said, 'flashing not allowed on hw." I would be happy just to have it working again. If anyone knows how to fix this, it would be greatly appreciated.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] MinerBoy004:
Oh snap. Since ADB doesn't work and Amazon won't help you, I am not sure what you can do. Try using fastboot on Android SDK, make sure the device is on the [fastboot] screen, or try holding done the power button in till the device turns black, then wait a minute then hold down the power button or press it and it should show the kindle fire screen, then wait for it to load. Hope this helps!

[Nexus 6 Accessories] baudi11:
I've been looking for a Qi charger that I could use in an alarm clock configuration with my N6. The Gripzila, the Choe Charger, and a non-slip mat like this one do the trick.

Here's how it works:

1. Put the mat on your nightstand.

2. Clip the Gripzila to the Choe charger so that the Choe is held almost but not quite in a vertical landscape configuration.

3. Put the Choe/Gripzila on the mat.

4. Lean the N6 against the Choe.

Works very well.

I've also ordered a sheet of suction cup tape that I intend to put on the Choe to see if I can eliminate the non-slip mat and maybe even the Gripzila. I'll report back.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] aiiee:
For a lot less trouble I just use a tilted Qi charger like the itian, nillkin, Google N4 charger, or the Tylt. Why go thru all that?
[Nexus 6 Accessories] sully112277:
Or you could just use this. Dropped from $100 down to $25.

[Nexus 6 Accessories] baudi11:
That doesn't look like it would work with the N6 curved back.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] LuckyHermit:
It probably wouldn't. The nexus 6 doesn't stick to the magnets in qi chargers well at all.

Sent from my Nexus 6
[Nexus 6 Accessories] Philip:
I think that I would take that US$100 price tag with a very large grain of salt. Even at US$25 it looks overpriced compared with similar items on eBay.
[Nexus 6 Accessories] aiiee:
Or you could use a free app like DockClock... And if you are too lazy to turn it on, like me, use an NFC tag in or nearby your charger.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakegriplingph:
Has any one of you guys here successfully compiled and booted up a kernel for the A31s? I downloaded and installed the toolchain already, and decided to cobble up one out of curiosity (and partly to get a Dragonrise USB joystick to work on my device), but I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to build one. I know there are instructions at Linux-Sunxi, but there doesn't seem to be a specific guide on the 32, only for A23, A20 and the A1x.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsktr:
I made some progress on this but got stuck

I was able to make a little more progress. I was able to download the sdk, whose link I cannot post because I am a new user, and successfully downloaded and built a stock image but when I use the pheonix suite to update the tablet it just hangs.

I suspect that hardware is different from what is available with the stock SDK and tried to build my own target but that did not work either. Any help or pointers would be great. Even an explanation as to why the pheonix suite update too hangs at the beginning of the update process.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakegriplingph:
I made some progress with the SDK too, and in my case I used the Fiber-3G target for Android along with the a31s kernel config. Both SDKs work, but my probs with the aforementioned SDKs is that they're riddled with issues - RTC isn't persistent in SDK 3.3, besides the LCD displaying funky coloured spots in some high-contrast areas. SDK 4.5 could've been perfect if it wasn't for the screen turning white whenever I put the tab to sleep.

I'd like to extract the kernel config on the one that came with my tab, but the problem here is that it didn't came with config.gz support, and my question here is that will extract-ikconfig work on those kernels?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsktr:
Could you share how you got the SDK to work? Did you just do a stock build of fiber-3g. What compiled did you use? Did you use the pheonix suite to install the image?

Seedy
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakegriplingph:
Yeah, all I did was to use fiber-3g, provided that you already cooked up a kernel, and yes I did use Phoenixsuit for flashing it. The tutorial at https://olimex.wordpress.com/2014/0...d-4-2-2-for-a20-olinuxino-micro-from-scratch/ should work, though since it's for the A20 you do need to change some specific parts in it. Let me know if you come across some hurdles, dude, I'll see what I can do with it.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] obsktr:
Thanks for the link. It is very similar to the PDF file that came with the SDK, but did not work at all. I have tried building with 3 different combos: fiber_3g, fiber_w02 and fiber_a31st with the same problem. I do get an image file after the build which is placed in the lichee/tools/pack_brandy/, but when I use phoenixsuite to flash it, it just says it will take 0 minutes and then hangs there.

Pheonix suite detects my board with the following model: fiber_wifibt_mtk and I cannot find this model when I run lunch. I tried creating a spec for it and changing the target name to match but that did not work. My rational was that perhaps pheonix suite saw a model mismatch and then stopped but I guess something else is wrong.

Any help or tips would be grate
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blakegriplingph:
Hmm, are the drivers for Phoenix properly installed? Can you flash a stock image, or at least a known working image to your device?
[Dell Venue] jumpup:
UPDATE (02 Apr 2016): The Dell Venue 7840 Android 4.4.4 NAndroid image has been posted should anyone need it. It is around 920MB in size. You can flash this using the tethered Clockworkmod Recovery procedure.

CLICK HERE

ROM image has been found. A thread will be created so others can have access

I have a very weird situation that could usually be resolved by performing a full reflash of the ROM. However, Dell doesn't make this available anywhere.

While I was installing new apps via Google Play, a handful of apps would not install. Google Play through up the Insufficient storage error. Confirmed that plenty of space was available all around. I researched the issue and carried out a few steps (clean Dalvik cache, Services->Apps->Google Framework data clear, Google Play data clear and uninstall update, manual review of /data/app and /data/app-lib regarding filenames). The issue still persisted. Using Lucky Patcher, I ran the option to manually install the latest stock Google Play (5.1.11). Afterward, I used Dell's built-in recovery to perform a factory reset and wipe the cache partition.

After all of that, I rebooted and received the usual New User screen. However, Google Keyboard keeps crashing. I connected a keyboard via USB-OTG, but since Google Keyboard is still the default input, the crash will not allow the hardware keyboard to work.

By some luck, I was able to bring up the Settings while in New User mode. Once in to Android proper, a handful of Google-related apps continued to crash (Chrome, Pinyin input, Keyboard). For some apps, I could uninstall via Titanium Backup and then perform a fresh install via Google Play. Even this wasn't a guarantee that the apps wouldn't crash. Reviewed logcat and app logs, and I found some Java exceptions and issues with certain /data/app /data/app-lib files/objects not being available.

I tried installing a few GApps packages from recovery, but they didn't work citing incompatibility with the existing version.

I had a CWM NANDROID backup of the system taken just as soon as I unboxed the unit and installed SuperSU. Irony: the drive containing the backup was formatted by mistake - used as a bootable recovery drive for another computer. :(

I also have a week's worth of full Titanium Backup jobs, but no manner of system app restores fixed the problem.

So, now, when you perform a factory reset, the system is still plagued with the Google app-related crashes.

With past devices, of course, you could download the ROM for a nice, clean reinstall. Dell has nothing on their support site. If I had a NANDROID (or similar) of the factory image, I should be able to fix the issue. My system received two Dell OTA updates and was at OS 4.4.4.

From DroidBoot recovery:

IFWI Version: 0004.F271

DroidBoot Version: 2.0

Product: Blackburn

If anyone has a copy of the factory ROM image or can suggest any tricks with the errant Google Apps/framework, please let me know. I'd be happy to send a PayPal donation for an official NANDROID of the factory image.

Thanks in advance for your help.
