How, do I install Chinese Language on a t805? I know one way is to add a custom ROM with the Chinese Language option. But where do I find that ROM and is there any other way to make the Samsung Tab s T805 fully in Chinese?
[Galaxy Tab S General] Alta1r:
If you don't have Chinese in the available languages you will need to add it yourself (requires root).

Go to /System/csc/language.xml and with a text editor add zh_CN between 'Display' and '/Display'.

You can use apps as Root Explorer, ES File Explorer, Root Browser, etc. to do this.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Verbato:
Simply put, this is (as of now) the latest TWRP (with F2FS, without multirom - sorry).

https://www.mediafire.com/?mj5885q1x5lamzv

Either install it normally or by using fastboot:

fastboot flash recovery fota.img

If you head over to AndroPlus' thread and download his latest kernel (as of writing, that is Z3_AndroPlusKernel_F2FS_v26a.zip) you could format /system and /cache as F2FS and it will boot and run fine, /data will however, sadly, not format or work as F2FS. But so far, /system and /cache does.

* Goal: get /data to work with F2FS as well
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] panzerscope:
Thanks for contributing ! Will Multirom ever get integrated by any chance ?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Verbato:
I didn't think anybody was interested. :P

But sure, I'll see what I can do!

You do need to wait a few days though.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] panzerscope:
Sure I think there would be a good amount of interest considering it would mean that no matter what happened to the Kernel/recovery we would still be able to fall back on Fota for Multirom. :)

Sure take your time, would be great if possible.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] panzerscope:
I don't suppose we are any closer to having MultiRom integrated into this ?

Thanks bud
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] kjames2001:
Sorry if i should know this, but do we need a supported kernel or something to boot into FOTA recoveries?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] panzerscope:
No, Fota Recovery is independent from the Kernel
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] kjames2001:
so you mean i can just flash this into fota and boot into it? Thanks.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] panzerscope:
Correct !
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] kjames2001:
I flashed it via fastboot, but i couldnt enter any recovery. no led indication or vibration. pressed vol up and down and not working. runing lollipop tho, maybe that's the problem?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] kjames2001:
Lol, just Remembered, you need Cm to use it.

[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Verbato:
You need something that, in the init, at boot, waits to check and see if you hit a set key.

"If set key is pushed - load "kernel" (or really ramdisk) from FOTA-partition"

Or more correctly, as [MENTION=5169444]AndroPlus[/MENTION] has coded it:

if [ -n "$POWRKEYCHECK" ]
then
#load FOTA ramdisk
busybox mknod -m 600 ${BOOTREC_FOTA_NODE}
busybox mount -o remount,rw /
busybox ln -sf /sbin/busybox /sbin/sh
extract_elf_ramdisk -i ${BOOTREC_FOTA} -o /sbin/ramdisk-recovery-fota.cpio -t / -c
busybox rm /sbin/sh
load_image=/sbin/ramdisk-recovery-fota.cpio
busybox echo 'Selected FOTA recovery' >>boot.txt
fi

If you want to do that yourself I can attach the original Sony LP kernel, dt.img and ramdisk for you.

Stock ROM

Hi. Just flashed your TWRP on my Z3, but I can't boot into it. What could be a problem? I am using latest CM12. Everytime I press vol + button during boot and lila light I get into CM recovery. :(
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Verbato:
Well, to put it easy:

On boot the phone has a script that tells it to look for certain keys to be pushed.

1. If volume up is pushed then go to CM Recovery

2. If volume down is pushed then go to TWRP Recovery

3. If camera button is pushed then go to...

And so on. If there is no script telling the phone to do so (original Sony kernel/ramdisk) then the phone will just simply boot in to android. Nothing tells it to do otherwise.

If there is a script that only tells the phone to boot in to CM recovery or what ever, then that's the only options the phone has.

The kernel (or rather, the ramdisk with the kernel) you use has to have support for booting from the FOTAKernel-partition. If there is no support for it in the kernel then the installed FOTAKernel will just exist there. Not hurting anything, but not doing any good either.

TL;DR - ask the creator/developer of your kernel to add booting from the FOTAKernel as a feature.
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] cmeeren:
Is there any automated or hassle-free way of replacing the nightly CM12 installer script with the script required for this recovery? Or do I have to download the zip manually, unzip, replace the sript manually, rezip, transfer the zip to my Z3, and then flash - every day?
[Xperia Z3 Android Development] Entropy512:
Wrong. On Sony devices, once the bootloader is locked, the device will NOT boot the contents of the FOTAKernel partition.

This is similar to older Samsung devices.

The problem with this, of course, is that you normally can't change recovery without changing the kernel.

The workaround developed (IIRC by Dees_Troy of TWRP) was to have the boot kernel extract its recovery ramdisk from the FOTAKernel partition if present, allowing a person to switch recoveries without switching kernels - but they still need a kernel that will read the ramdisk. Also, the recovery ramdisk present needs to "play nice" with the kernel itself, which can lead to problems when Qualcomm or Sony do things that break display compatibility. For example, I'm fairly certain most current Z3 FOTAKernel builds use RGBX_8888, which Qualcomm dropped support for in vanilla framebuffers (like what recovery uses) in newer kernels. So any FOTAKernel ramdisk that tries to use RGBX_8888 will fail, for example, with Sony AOSP (due to it using a newer 3.10 kernel)

Hello forum,

I am having a strange issue with my LG G2 (D802) , Software version D80220h , not rooted. One day iv plugged my phone to the PC and suddenly there was an error (Usb device not recognized), iv tried several things: using another usb cable , using another pc , installing the official LG USB drivers , hard reset on the phone , usb debbuging , switching pc connection modes (MTP , etc.) , nothing helped. Found some similar problems on the forum , but no solutions . The interesting thing is that when iv plugged my LG to the phone charge is saying that is slowly charging TA/USB , i`v tried another phone charger , but the same TA/USB slow charging message appear.

Thanks in advance and sorry for my English

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] abovenbeyond:
Hello all,

With all the awesome chef's in the kitchen it is hard to ask this question... but I will.

I would like to know what the most stable WM6 rom is, In your opinion.

I have used Black 2.0... for 2 weeks (seemed flawless)

Then I tried Tried 2.5 then LVSW, and even Custel's ROM but get random freezes, I grab the phone and its froze, missed how many calls?? I can't have this.

Something I might be doing you say, possible but I have even installed no additional apps, and only sync to exchange. I see others having some various issues with differnet roms. So this prompted me to ask the question I have.

So whats the most stable ROM?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] donsaxena:
i use black 2.5 with his new memory.cab and works great no problems. what programs are you using b/c it may be related to them. maybe use sktools to delete some unneccesary programs from starting on boot and go from there.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ronfin44:
Black 1.2 with a weeks+ of working it to perfection. No need to flash anything else for me until WM7 comes out. lol :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] ChaoticDruid:
Coming back to a froze device sounds like you have the sd card lockups, and not rom related, but if you dont have a card installed, dismiss my post.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] noop:
I was using Black 2.5, I have a lot of freezes in particular when I activeSync and I do activeSync A LOT, (freeze about every 3rd time I activeSync). A few miss call, and call which I have no audio.

I switch to LVSW 4/23 (FULL version), currently with the same applications installed on Black 2.5, my phone seems to be running well, no freezes yet for half a day already. (ActiveSync more than 10 times already)

I am not saying there is any problem with Black 2.5 rom. A lot of people are very happy with Black 2.5. What I am simply saying is that with the set of applications that I need (a few of them are beta apps), LVSW seems more compatibility than Black.

P.S. Using PhoneAlarm, PocketInformat, CEStar, ISilo, Cyberon Voic Speed Dial, and SplashID
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] CUSTEL:
I've had no freezing issues, only app I install is im+
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] jpeterson99:
I am running Black 2.5 and I too am having similar ActiveSync problems. And it freezes every third time as well. Strange....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] newbro:
Previously I was using Black 2.0 and never had one freeze. But since I upgraded to 2.5 I get random freezes like couple times a day, I suspect this could be due to the new OS build? Once I have time I would probably reflash it back to 2.0 cuz it's rock stable for me.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] 4bc:
Black 2.5 is working sweet as for me.

Couple of freezes with LVSW and XDA Live, but nothing major, i had freezes with the OEM rom, its just what phones and computers seem to do these days!!

I;ll stay Black, but at the end of the day, use the rom, which you think you will get the best community support, has the best community friendliness and if you ever do have troubles, you shouldnt be troubles trying to fix them!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] SkyyBoy:
keep in mind that these ROMs are essentially beta (even if based upon the "final" WM6). they do not undergo the rigorous testing that a carrier would provide.

if you are unwilling to deal with this (and RTFW for answers), then you might be better sticking with the factory shipping WM5 roms...
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] honzy:
I like Custel's rom, support is there, and rom is quick n smooth
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] dma1965:
LVSW 4/23

The full version of LVSW 4/23 is the most stable so far for me. This is the first of the WM6 ROMS I can open and run Netfront, Newsbreak, Pocket IE, Messaging, Camera, Resco Explorer, get a phone call at the same time and still have no freezing. I did a little tweaking to it, but out of the gate it is just fine. All I really needed to install in the Keyboard fix and the Cingular settings.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] hankit:
noop, the reason you freeze alot or crashes alot is becoz of CE-Star..all i know is LVSW does not have the problem, but all other rom does...

Don't use the one from WM5, i remember there is a lite version on this fourm (topic x01ht showing chinese or sth)

Why i know, coz i just install ce-star on black, it will never work..it will crash almost anything...The guy who made the lite has a re-edit version of Ce-star for crossbow, that you have to try your own..since all i need is viewing~
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] JasenR:
They are all good!

We are all one big happy community here at XDA Developers!:)

For me with the earlier round of ROMS LVSW 4/23 worked the best. Zero problems. Haven't finished trying out the latest batch yet so I can't say. The bottom line is that with these ROMS you really do have to try them all and make your decision on which one best meets your needs when coupled with the software that you use.

All of these cooks are turning out some nice ROMs, the problems are more frequently caused by programs that are not yet certified for WM6 and the cooks, of course, have no control over this.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] leochan2005:
I would also suggest not to use any program to clean your OS, e.g. memory maid as it seems become unstable for all rom after cleaning the system with this kind of software.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] abovenbeyond:
Hi all,

Thanks for all your responses. I agree support from this forum family is awesome. I also agree with trying several roms to find the one that best fits my needs (but I don't yet know what they are, I just moved from a treo 650, and prior was a treo 600)

I am on LVSW now, I will try it for a bit and see how it goes. I do like Custels as well... Hmmm decisions, decisions. lol

Well thanks again for your responses and thant you Chefs for all your diligent work. You're the Kings in my book.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] papakeithjenkins:
Comparison Page???

Would it be posible for the creators of the roms to tell us ALL of the bells and whistles that each of them has on it, and someone could compile a chart or page to compare them all? Obviously, the Voice Dial function is important to me, and I dig the Space Invaders, but there is so much more. I would be glad to do it if I could get the info on each with which to begin. As for Stability; is there a way to do a survey that would allow us to rate them according to the opinion of the users here regarding speed of boot/reset and stability and whatever anyone else can think of?

I recently moved to the Dutty Premier Windows Mobile 6 - Full Edition - Version 1 and So far I am very happy with it. And it appears to have all the tools and toys I want and need . . . so far.

Custel Cingular 1.2

The only WM6 ROM I have upgraded to is Custel's Cingular 1.2. It was a problem free upgrade and I have not experienced a single freeze and the only soft resets I have done were those required to install other applications. Unless someone, including HTC or Cingular, comes out with a version that adds features that I can't live without (and are not added to these cooked ROM's on this forum as CABs), I will be happy to stay with my current version.

You can flash it in TWRP, the first setup screen is in Chinese but you can change the language to English pretty easily.

If you need the Play store or any Google apps, you can flash one of the 4.4.4 Gapps package as explained in this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2397942

You need a full wipe after installing the Gapps package, otherwise you will get a force close on the initial Setup Wizard.
