For what it's worth, I'm using WM6 Black 2.5 on a Hermes (Cing 8525) and I'm able to use WM6 Internet Sharing via BT to connect my laptop to the internet and I am able to use my Cisco VPN client on my laptop to connect to my company's intranet. No problems here so I don't think it's a WM6 problem.... rather a configuration problem... either on your company's VPN concentrator side or your client side.You may want to chat with your IT/Ops dept for configuration settings.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Tadeusz:
No problems here nither. I use Vista on PC. I need to connect to several networks and just have made some tests. I could reach all of them. The fact is that most of them are built on Draytek routers not Cisco, but they also use IPSec and so on.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] an0key:
Yep I'm having the same problem, my VPN's worked fine with WM5, but went to Black 2.5 and now when I VPN, it connects, assignes me an IP, but wont let me ping the network.

I _think_ it's becuase now the fone shows up as a network rather than a modem, and assigns me a 192.168.0.x address, and the home network is in this too... any suggestions?

[XDA Assist] BIG_BADASS:
I have an Android device that has been infected with some sort of RAT or trojan horse (I suspect AndroRAT or Adwind, but I'm not too sure). I have tried resetting it back to factory settings, but the malware is still there. Will re-flashing the stock firmware get rid of it? Even if it is embedded deep into the system or into the kernel? If this is the case, how can I get rid of it? There seems to be no powerful Android Antiviruses at the moment. I want to make sure it is 100% completely removed. All input will be greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone,

is it possible to put stock rom from european version of S5 Active to AT&T S5 Active? Do I have to change kernell as well, or just simply flash stock rom from G870F? Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
you cant flash stock G870F to your device, the bootloader is locked (research goes along way towards answering your question) the only way you would get the 870F is via a custom rom based on that device, and you cant flash any kernels no matter what.

so in short NO you cant do whatyou want,

you need to root your device, install safestrap and flash a custom rom if you want anything outside of stock.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] prakashkashyap:
Hi,

I am using unlocked samsung galaxy s5 active g870a at&t but i live in india and using the device here, so i have rooted the device and unlocked the bootloader with EZ-unlock succesfully. Can now i flash stock G870F to my G870a or new 5.1 official lollipop firmwere by samsung just relesed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cstayton:
NO YOU DID NOT UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER, you only SIM unlocked the device for use on other carriers, you still cannot flash the stock G870F odin firmware to your device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Sgt.CM:
I'm not sure if that is 100% true. I think you can flash another but only if it is the same kernell. So if you are on 4.4.4 you can flash the same but you can't upgrade from there since the bootloader is locked. You can only upgrade an AT&T stock Rom.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] prakashkashyap:
Thanks for your reply. .....But i unlocked my bootloader with App called EZ-UNLOCK, is there any possibility that I still have locked bootloader....my android is 4.4.2.....Both G870A and G870F are similar in every Headwear. ....... do i need to flash kernel first......

Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] prakashkashyap:
THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY, EZ-UNLOCK app for locking/unlocking the bootloader and it said I did it successfully,

(1). My device is rooted.

(2). 4.4.2 Stock.

(3). No AT&T firmware Support

(4). Bootloader is unlocked. (if EZ-UNLOCK did it)

So what I need to do to flash G870F stock Firmware and Kernell or official 5.1 lollipop to my S5 ACTIVE G870A At&t, plz tell me Which KERNELL do i need and where can i download it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Sgt.CM:
If you truly have a SM-G870A then I highly doubt the app worked or we would all be using it. You can flash with Odin to any G870 with 4.4.2 or upgrade to 4.4.4 and flash that equivalent. But I wouldn't mess with it if you don't know what you are doing. 5 will be out soon. AT&T is just taking it's time and we are being very impatient.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Rakuu:
I did a quick search of that app youve used there and it says IN THE TITLE its for the verizon S3, not only that the thread for this app says its not only not been updated since 2012 but will hardbrick your device if you use it on the later firmwares. That app is most likely lying about the bootloader being unlocked. At the end of the day it is locked and we just have to deal with it and work around it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] prakashkashyap:
Today I tried to flash stock S870F 4.4.2 rom to my S5 ACTIVE G870A.... .....and i went into downloading mode But...when I clicked the start button of odin my device refused to be flashed, and the green bar stopped by some kind of security checked. But my device didn't brick.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] s8freak:
One more time you're 870A is NOT BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED it CANNOT be unlocked you CANNOT flash 870F stock firmware.

Ok sooo... last post on this bootloader issue was a while ago,

So I am asking is there a way to get around or unlock the att bootloader issue for the g870a on the OF3 kernal so that I can downgrade and root? Or even a way to root from this kernal? I dont have any warranty left so im not sure that I mind if Knox is triggered, that being said maybe theres more than warranty to be concerned than I know, if so please enlighten me, forgive me if this has been answered somewhere else more recently, I am new to this site and thanks in advance for any help.:good:

Thanks

Great, amazing that I can't have the freedom I want with a phone that I paid 700 dollars for. Anyway thanks for responding, and is there no way for a Debelover to manipulate the code somehow to be the skeleton key to unlocking it. Just being in to the basics of code so sorry if there is some ignorance there. I'm assuming the answer is no or they are still trying to Crack it, but was wanting to know if I should have any how at all in that. Is that code in the system.iMG itself? And if so why is that code so hard to open up considering it's on so many devices.? Again thanks in advance for taking any time to answer my ignorant questions
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Rakuu:
The images are signed with a private key, and then the phone checks the signature, so it's a matter of knowing the private signing key which is effectively a needle in a haystack in a hay factory to guess.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] DragnSin:
Thanks

Wonderful! Thanks for responding, somehow that doesn't seem legal unless the someone was making money off of there patented merchandise. Bit for me to unlock the full potential of my own device,, hmmm. Anyways topic for a different thread in sure. Thanks guys for the info.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PlutoDelic:
Greetings people,

As TW Lollipop has landed, most of the devs have been trying to brew ROMs for the people, and unfortunately there is no control as what MODS should be included, i have found it terribly difficult to choose a ROM as it didnt feel normal to use mods that made no sense (or at least have a minority audience).

Particularly,what annoys me a lot, is dealing with the mods that change the visual space available, now there is no need to blame devs here at all, but rather Sammy should be here to blame for just trying to make a normal UI into a complex useless UI in to their own, and they have effed it up with the new Notifications Drawer.

While i noticed a lot of devs have found options/parameters to change the view of the notification drawer, a lot of ROMs include a very annoying feature called Quicklaunch, however im pretty sure a lot of people like it. While Quicklaunch in my personal opinion sucks, it looks way better compared to S-Finder and Quick Launch buttons. I personally lack any kind programming/scripting skills, but luckily, thanks to a nice dev called [MENTION=4638206]alfaroolg[/MENTION] with a similar taste, he brewed it for me straight away.

This is what i planned on seeing:

Remove S-Finder and Quick Connect

Remove 3minit Quicklaunch

Remove the Brightness Bar

Currently, im on [MENTION=2229782]g00h[/MENTION] s Note 4 Port, which makes me believe that the Brightness Bar is not removable anymore as i could not find the setting on either the Display settings or Notification Panel editor, HOWEVER,

the brightness bar disappears if under 5% battery

so you cant push the brightness up, and to my surprise, found out sammy screwed up adopting to the Lollipop rules.

This is how it looks without S-Finder/QuickConnect and Quicklaunch: First Pic

This is what happens with the same configuration, under 5% battery after the Brightness Bar disappears: Second Pic

And to my surprise, if there are any Notifications going on, things return well: Third Pic

Is this a general issue Sammy mustve skipped? quite an eye catcher. Also, the area where the brightness bar disappears, usually Notifications get the place, and the first Notification is not Swipeable, i end up clicking the notification rather then removing it, and it can result in very unpleasant moments.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace 3] csery:
Hi All,

I have a SamsungAce3 with some carriers boot animation.

I would change it back to the stock one.

Can anyone share with me these files :"samsungboot.qmg" and "samsungloop.qmg"

I need the original non carrier branded version.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Ace 3] bmcosier:
Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 GT-S7275T generic qmg files

Attached, worked fine changing my Telstra 7275 to generic. I had to rename them to get them to upload to the forum, so just change the extension to .qmg. These came from a Samsung Galaxy Ace 3 GT-S7275T, and I have successfully put them on my Telstra version, the GT-S7275Y. I can't guarantee that it will work for you, so no warranty, sorry.

Any problems PM me. Your phone will need to be rooted to allow you to put these in, if using ADB be sure to delete the old files, change the folder permissions, then push the new files.

And be sure to double check the files are there and valid (double check you renamed them to .qmg) before rebooting your phone. I can't help you if you brick it, sorry.
[Samsung Galaxy Ace 3] csery:
Thanks,

I will try out today ...

Everything went smoothly, "T" branding gone! So thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Ace 3] Aussie_Dude:
Note to anybody else trying this the files "samsungboot.qmg", "samsungloop.qmg" and "shutdown.qmg" go in the system/media folder. A second copy of the "shutdown.qmg" file needs to go in the system/media/video/shutdown folder if it exists. This depends on the customisation by your phones provider, mine was Telstra Australia and the second copy was necessary on mine.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P650SE:
Hey,

I encountered a problem the other day where my photos randomly changed from sorting by alphabetical order to date order in all my gallery apps (QuickPic, Cyanogen Gallery, Piktures). Not sure why this randomly happened because my pictures have sorted by alphabetical order ever since i've had the phone!

Of course i could change the order back to alphabetical for each album in QuickPic, but this isn't really a solution because i have something like 500 albums and to do every one it would take forever! There doesn't seem to be any universal option which affects all the albums either.

I upgraded my phone this morning to 05Q, but rather than using the OTA i completely wiped the phone with userdata, and then flashed the update zip onto a clean installation. Even after this though i still have the same problem! :(

Anyone know why this has randomly happened and how i could sort it out? Really frustrating because all my pictures are in the wrong order and it takes me a while to find the ones i want.

Any help would be appreciated! Cheers! :)

Android Ice Cold Project​

​

AICP is known by everyone as Ice Cold Project that started on Desire HD and since then evolved into a mature ROM with the BEST community you can find!!!

Until Lollipop, Rom has always been AOKP based. Unfortunately, since AOKP either stopped development or will make a comeback later this year, we changed our base to CM when it comes to hardware, drivers and some features.

If there are any bugs, either we will sort them or CM team if it concerns their modifications. This rom isn't CM supported so no need to report errors or bugs to them!!

Don't disable Heads-Up. You wont be able to answer phone calls otherwise.

You tell... :P

​

ROMS should contain everything you need to enjoy Lollipop. You are not required to install any Add Ons, simply download the latest ROM, gapps, flash it, and go!

You are STRONGLY recommended to fully wipe your device before flashing, and if possible avoid restoring system apps and system data with Titanium Backup - these can cause stability issues that are very hard to debug. If you believe you know what you're doing - then fine, go ahead, but please don't complain if you experience strange behavior.

How to flash:

Don't do it if you don't know it

ROM has gapps persistance in between dirty flashes

KERNEL:

Kernel in this rom follows CM source with custom additions.

PREREQUISITE FOR OTA:

To be able to flash over OTA app, TWRP recovery is needed.

You can still use CWM and OTA app, but only to download zip file and flash it manually from within recovery. Zip gets saved under AICP_ota folder on your internal SDcard.

If you want to contribute to the AICP or wanna see what is being worked on/merge feel free to visit our gerrit, link is at the bottom!!!

Good work KidJoe :laugh::good:
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
I guess this will be more relevant as Soaks start heading out for the 2013 X...
[Moto X General] ks73417:
Good post. Can I use the same process on MotoX 2014 pure? I have turned Moto OTA to get rid of constant "update available" notification, if I turn that back on, do you know where the OTA zip file is downloaded (i'm thinking cache )
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
Yes, the OTA zip is usually stored in /cache (at least is is on the 2013 X, and my past Moto phones). it is usually named for the rom it is upgrading, not what the upgrade takes you to.

I don't see why this wont work on the 2014 X, as it did on older motos too.
[Moto X General] ajsonofgod:
Brother i got Motorola updates services update today. I will try your method once there will be available ota. And can you tell me how to backup my whole rom?
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
In TWRP you can make a nandroid backup. I've never done it. I haven't had need because I run stock. If I need to reflash, I just reflash the same SBF I've been running.
[Moto X General] ejlmd:
I followed the instructions in the OP to return to stock recovery, then applied the OTA update Blur_Version.213.44.1.ghost_row.Retail.en.US, but am failing with this message

/system/etc/install-recovery.sh has unexpected contents

I haven't knowingly modified any system files, although I am rooted. Any thoughts about what this error might mean and how to resolve it?
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
What ROM is on you phone to start with? On your phone go App Drawer -> Settings -> About.. tell me the Android Version, System Version and Build Number. Also what model X do you have?

213.44.1.ghost_row.Retail.en.US is an XT1053 4.4.4 update file for the XT1053 if I'm not mistaken. It is meant to be applied to a 4.4.3 stock rom, and it might apply to a 4.4.2 stock rom..

The OTA file will fail its pre-flash validation checks if you are not on the intended stock rom.
[Moto X General] ejlmd:
Thank you. I'm embarrassed that I didn't perform sufficient due diligence. I am already on the same system version as the update (213.44.1.ghost_row.Retail.en.US ), which I mistakenly thought was to get to Lollipop from 4.4.4.
[Moto X General] tazlooney89:
there any way to make a dump the stock recovery in Lollipop, without the need root?
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
Yeah, OTA Update files are often named including the version the phone must be on, not the version it takes the phone to.
[Moto X General] ks73417:
Do I need to uninstall xPosed & GravityBox before I sideload L ? I guess, Kitkat version of xposed worn't work in L anyway.
[Moto X General] Smash2Bash:
It's ABSOLUTELY BEST you avoid the update............but....

If you can't, it is highly recommended that you clean flash it...kind of the only choice. Flash the 4.4.4 Brazilian stock ROM. And install the update from recovery. You can reroot after adding TWRP back.
[Moto X General] ajsonofgod:
I am also on stock rom 4.4.4. But i dont have this rom on my pc for reflashing. Please provide link for download or some info related to it
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
Please see the LINK in my signature for sites to download stock SBF files
[Moto X General] KidJoe:
As explained elsewhere... Xposed makes changes to /system which cause OTA updates to fail their pre-flash validation checks.

It is recommended to boot to TWRP and install /SDcard/Android/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/files/Xposed-Disable-Recovery.zip then uninstall XPosed.

You will also need to undo any changes to /system or other parts the the OTA tries to validate before installing, or else it will fail.

You are correct that a newer version of Xposed is needed.

You may also want to wait on trying the 5.0.2 Leaks because if they are an early limited early test version, rather than a soak which is nearly ready to be pushed to all, you could be stuck on this version until an SBF leaks.
