[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willcor:
hi,

if you are unsure about flashing with Odin look on YouTube /XDA or else for an example for Note 4. flashing with Odin.

Dirty flash is only a term to describe that before /after flashing with eg. Odin you did not "factory reset" your device. You juzt flashed over old software.,thus not needing to most likely re install any apps.

Problem is if you had any errors etc in previous Rom you could experience similar issues iin the new Rom. It's your choice

just to give you an example of dirty flash. When i upgraded from Android v 4.4.4 to lollipop BOB4 i did a dirty flash as i was to lazy to re install my apps. and my device was working 100% battery was fine etc. But yes flashing to... BOC3 i felt.. no i had more time on hand and didn't mind re installing

my 168 app i have on device. Used Titanium.. root

So i flashed.. lollipop .. BOC3.. Hard reset device.. flashed Cf autoroot to root.. checked if it was working and then flashed custom recovery Cwm

Downloaded Titanium again.. i have the paid Titanium version (as all 3rd party apps are wiped when hard resetting ) from market and restored all my apps.. from ext sd card i had backed up. before when flashing when i still was on ...BOB4

(Just remember to fix old Android Ext Sd card issue.. i used NextApp sd fix from Play market to get "write permission" as Titanium could not find it on my ext sd

good luck
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cybrg4life:
Thank you for the info !

Did all those things , and everything looks fine , restore all my apps with titanium.

Have a nice day!!!!!
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] willcor:
hi ,

glad you sorted it out..!!!

just to clearify / elaborate my preferred order of "flashing "( above post )

It is still a "dirty flash " ,as you flash over all your apps from old ROM ,

but you correct it, by doing a "factory reset " (etc etc.) straight afterwards .

Other members prefer to factory reset before "flashing " and then again factory reset it again just after flashing . new Rom.. ..

i prefer either a straight "dirty flash" ( no factory reset afterwards ) or method/order i descibed in post above ..!

Reason i don't factory reset, before flashing is that if you factory reset and then flash and your flash goes wrong eg ..errors, corrupt download ,etc etc

you can hopefully , flash old ROM back and still have your old apps working ....but i don't think you are going to be happy reinstalling all your old apps on old ROM .i know i won't with all my apps !!!

good luck

[Google Chromecast] vincentcox:
Hello there,

When I plug my chromecast in my TV (chromecast is already configurated with the wifi network etc), and I boot it up, I see the boot logo, then black screen.

I already tested the chromecast on my external screen: it's working sweet on my external screen.

Lots of people have the same issue: this is related due unable to specify the output resolution of the chromecast.

My TV supports 1080i, but not 1080p. Chromecast thinks it supports 1080p, so it sends an unsupported signal to the tv, in technical terms we call it a HDMI EDID fail.

This can be fixed if they make an option for it to select the output signal. Unfortunately this is unavailable in the menu.

There MUST be a way to manually set the output signal. I know you can send commands via CURL;

For example: to force update the chromecast instead of the lame wait-timespan of 2 weeks to receive the update:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"params": "ota foreground"}' http : // <chromecastIp>:8008/setup/reboot -v

So I guess there is also a setting for the output? What is the command for that?

FAQ:

TV model: 32PF9531/10

Kind regards,

Vincent
[Google Chromecast] Markyzz:
I always thought it was a HDCP issue. I've had this problem on my Sony Plasma for about 9 months now. Happens on both rooted and non rooted Chromecasts. My solution was to buy a Hdmi to rgb converter.
[Google Chromecast] vincentcox:
Hi there,

Thank you for your reply! :)

I haven't discovered the area of the rooted chromecasts (yet).

Can you place the model/product name of your converter?

If it doesn't cost much, I will buy the same one and end this endless search.

I already bought an hdmi to VGA adapter from ebay, but that didn't worked.

Kind regards,

vincent

[One (M9) General] :
There's no risk in flashing. If it doesn't work just reflash my boot.img.
[One (M9) General] hgoldner:
I think I did it, based upon instructions here.

At least I believe I have a boot.img. Filesize is 65,536KB, was block p065. Note, ROM version currently is 1.33.90605.315 on Verizon, not Mr_Bartek's version.
[One (M9) General] :
Don't flash my version on Verizon. That is a large partition for just boot.img. What command did you use?
[One (M9) General] hgoldner:
From the thread, I did the following:

1. I figured out that the mountpoints were located in /dev/block/f9824900.sdhci

2. From that I concluded that boot was mmcblk0p65

3. Based upon that I did the following in a DOS box on a Win7 system with the M9 connected via USB with debugging enabled:

adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p65 of=/sdcard/boot.img

I then pulled the boot.img off the sdcard to my PC

Note that the problem right now is that the internal drive is encrypted (they asked me to test encryption) and I can't turn encryption OFF on the internal sdcard. I've turned it on and off repeatedly on the removable sdcard (and that's not operating properly either). As a result, when I boot to recovery, TWRP can't read the internal sdcard. It asks me (repeatedly) to decrypt, but it doesn't accept the password. I was able to run a Nandroid onto the removable sdcard and backed up boot that way, too.
[One (M9) General] DroidShift79:
there just was an OTA for german O2 variant

Maybe one wanna try to use that boot.img ?

//EDIT:

was able to extract the kernel out of that boot.img with [MENTION=6304619]MZ_.[/MENTION] img tool.

But from here on I can't do nothing. If one could get an M9 for [MENTION=947981]Lord Boeffla[/MENTION], I'm sure he would have a look :)

Hello All,

I ve been spending the weekend customizing my Home screen . I am using Nova launchers , icon packs , xposed Gravity Box,playing with widgets etc.

I wanted to know if there was a app/Shortcut/workaround applied to the leftmost homescreen such that when i swipe right it opens an app or google now ( similar to the feature in action launcher to open goolenow).

Also is xfloatingwindows working on Lollipop and are there any good apps that I could apply only on the Leftmost and Rightmost Home Screen.

Thanks for all the Help

Guys please help i really am desperate and i have tried everything.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StanEzio:

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
The lines are due to the fact that you have a lollipop bootloader with a Kit Kat ROM. Upgrade to stock 5.02 or the latest CM12 and the lines will go away, except possibly in custom recovery. No lines if running stock recovery.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StanEzio:
Thanks for the tip though it stoped on its own
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
If you're running Kit Kat, it will stop if you lock and unlock the phone using the power button. If you restart the phone or your boot into recovery, the lines will reappear until your lock and re-lock again.

Hi paziusss,

I am on the case of recovery bootloop after flashing CWM.

Thanks for this work but how does it work ? How to use the files on the link ?

Many thanks for your answer.

1. flash cmw with odin

2. reboot into recovery and flash twrp.zip

3. reboot recovery

4. Flash root zip

5. reboot system ..... no more bootloop

[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] paziusss:
I'm glad it worked for you :D

I just noticed some non-critical errors:

- it doesn't backup boot.img

- wipe preload partition does not work because of Selinux

- screen timeout (sometimes) puts the system in unresponsive state -> Disable it!

- Missconfigured "screen_brightness"

Everything else should work as expected.

In the next days I'll upload a new version to fix above errors and make an odin installable tar.md5

Next version will be shipped without SELinux, because we don't need that until samsung releases 4.4 for the Tab3 lite (or someone ported CM11 with Selinux support)

[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] mai77:

this recov does not simply install via stock ASR on my T110 (reboot, "missing signature").

[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] mai77:
brief install how-to much appreciated

people would have more fun if you dropped 1 or 2 lines about how to install the NON-ODIN version.

does one have to flash CWM with ODIN prior to using that ?

So that stock users should go for the ODIN version straight away cuz it saves install time?

---------- Post added at 04:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

Also:

is this TWRP permanent and does not exhibit the dreaded bootloop? re-edit : YES this TWRP exhibits NO bootl loop acc. to DEV.

i.e. T110-users finally do indeed have a WORKING CUSTOM RECOV ? re-edit: YES ! FINALLY THE BREAK THROUGH IS THERE !!

that would make you the KING DEV of planet-T110 ! :good:
