How different is it for a recovery image file please?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] skulldreamz:
Is the same, just put your recovery.img in the ARM folder and you might want to call your project folder something different than bootfolder (ex; recoveryfolder) so you don't get confused or forget
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] image45:
Oh yes, however ramdisk folder is empty when you use only a recovery image. Less content of course.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] skulldreamz:
When i use twrp everything is working perfect. Your ramdisk is probably in a lzma format I'm guessing

As you can see im inside of my ramdisk folder, which is inside my recoveryfolder

Hi my friend, do you still want to learn about scripts.

Please go to telegram app. :)

Thanks ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SHM:
[MENTION=6166281]image45[/MENTION] can you sendme your image that uses a lzma compressed ramdisk. The project supports lzma so there should be no need to decompress it manually however, if the project is not doing what it should already be doing then I need to debug the script, find the culprit, make my fix, and push the changes to my github. Would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

app

Hy,

I use this app for long time to open boot.img and extract ramdisk.

The app asked then if you want open the ramdisk also.

Only click on your boot.img and in 4 sec its open.

Second function is to pack a boot.img.

Very simple to use, also for beginners.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SHM:
It only decompresses gzip ramdisks. Doesn't support other types unless you modify the ramdisk.sh script used inside the apk. It also doesn't support images with dt binaries which is more common nowadays. I use to use this a long time ago but to say it simple, it is outdated and lacks support.

However, if it works then I say use it. Especially if the person isn't comfortable with command lines.

I see this is an older thread but tried it on my Nexus 6p. When I repacked boot it was significantly smaller in size. It also has the warning of non standard address. Anything I should do or be aware of?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] The Sickness:
Try using mkboot....

https://github.com/xiaolu/mkbootimg_tools
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Fe Mike:
Thank you, bare with me as Im fairly new to this. Just to be clear, when i go to link there is the ARM folder that has all the same stuff in it or the single mkboot file thats 9.46mb in size? Not sure how to download just the mkboot file. When i click it, it just opens up the code. Do i copy and paste the code?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] The Sickness:
You have to clone the source using "git clone" in your terminal. Which means you need to be on Linux
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Fe Mike:
Ok, I was able to clone using cygwin. But i was reading in the forums that the size of extracted boot from phone will not be the same as it being repacked. So I used original files from this post and and just extracted, unpacked, and repacked. Then just flashed img thru twrp and everthing went well. Thank you for your response.

[LG Optimus G (International)] PharrellVP:
Hey, guys. I just got bricked my phone and I can not find any solution. My vol + buttno seems not to be working and the vol- button is working from time to time. The phone was with CM 12 Lillipop and I git update but I didn't like it. So I did not wiped everything before to flash it back with the original ROM (CM12) so I got bootloop of android logo. Is there any way to put it into recovery mode or something without vol + /I could make vol- to work somehow/? Please, I heed help!
[LG Optimus G (International)] MZO:
Can you go to fast boot? (Vol up plus power) if yes then flash SOLID KERNEL V1.6 GPROJ through fastboot... It might work, else flash a stock kdz

Sent from my LG-E975 powered by my OWN CyanogenMod 11 port
[LG Optimus G (International)] PharrellVP:
No, it's just volume up is not working anymore. Volume down works sometimes though.

Thank you anyway. If there's other way...
[LG Optimus G (International)] PharrellVP:
Come on guys, I am begging you. If someone know a tool or something to fix my phone, I would be very thankful...
[LG Optimus G (International)] MZO:
Bro calm down! Just download tools and flash stock kdz

First hold both volume down buttons and connect your phone to PC with cable while holding both volume buttons. Does download mode appear? If it does then flashing stock kdz will get your phone back!

Sent from my LG-E975 powered by my OWN CyanogenMod 11 port
[LG Optimus G (International)] PharrellVP:
As I said before, my volume buttons are not working properly. That's the reason I made this thread- to find out if I can save my phone or not. I already tried flashing with kdz, but I can not boot the phone in any mode but bootloop CM lollipop logo. Also I can not install MTP on PC as it seems to be the problem when I tried with adb command prompt.

So, is there any other way except repair service for the volume buttons?
[LG Optimus G (International)] MZO:
Aah I got your problem. You have bootloader unlocked? To flash kdz you need a locked bootloader. Try locking it somehow (kinda impossible if you can't boot :/ ). Once you flash stock recovery and lock bootloader then you'll be able to flash kdz! I think you need to go to repair shop to fix buttons

Sent from my LG-E975 powered by my OWN CyanogenMod 11 port
[LG Optimus G (International)] PharrellVP:
By the way, I did installed a custom recovery via FreeGee. Since then when I reboot the phone, it shows Google and a locked locker at the bottom. It could mean locked bootloader, right? Also I have backup and all the files i need in there, but the problem is I can not reach them. Tomorrow I am going to talk to the service. I hope there's a hope :)

Anyway, thank you again, @MZ_

If anyone else has something in mind, please - I am opened for suggestions :)
[LG Optimus G (International)] MZO:
Well yes it means a locked bootloader. If you could go to fastboot you could try fastboot oem unlock command. As the mako boot loader is nexus based :o ... Just a thought. Can you get a temp fix your vol up button? Any hard thing which presses button? :/

Press THANKS if I help
[LG Optimus G (International)] akahroba:
locked or unlocked BL has nothing to do with the download mode. You have to take your device to download mode using some commands from PC. search for this. I think this sould work: adb reboot download
[LG Optimus G (International)] MZO:
Dude he can't connect with ADB! Please readout the post first! He is in a softbricked state. He has recovery but his keys are damaged. I think the bootloader is locked that's why it isn't booting up (maybe) ... Or the ROM is damaged. Anyways he can't do anything till he fixes both the volume buttons!

Sent from my LG-E975 powered by my OWN CyanogenMod 11 port

/EDIT: adb reboot download isn't anything

Press THANKS if I help
[LG Optimus G (International)] PharrellVP:
Yeah, [MENTION=6304619]MZ_.[/MENTION] I am not able to do anything like this. I tried adb, but it said no device found. I took the phone to the service today so I am waiting for respond. Once again, thank you all for the suggestions. ROM is not corrupted. It is cm 12 working perfect, but when I updated it there was lots of lagg. So I did the mistake just to wipe cache and dalvik before to reflash the original ROM. So that's how I got bricked my phone. So now I am gonna wait hopefully for good ):
[LG Optimus G (International)] MZO:
Well, it can't be bricked like that btw, and yeah! You need to fix your buttons in order to continue. Else use a hard thing to press them tightly so it work! Sorry :(

Press THANKS if I helped
[LG Optimus G (International)] PharrellVP:
Guys, I have news. The service fixed the buttons so now works like charm. So back to the business-can I do a full wipe then install the rom or I have to use kdz or so? I mean it boots into download and recovery mode.

Thanks.
[LG Optimus G (International)] MZO:
Well, yes you can now... I'd recommend you go for CM11 :D ... I'm really happy that it worked out :>

Hit THANKS if I help, or you like my post!
[LG Optimus G (International)] PharrellVP:
Hm, I thought the recovery is OK, but it is not. Only the download mode is working. What's now? Please, I need it urgently...
[LG Optimus G (International)] PharrellVP:
I flashes stock with kdz then I did reboot into recovery. Then I just wiped everything, flashed back cm12 with gapps and now it works perfect. (:
[LG Optimus G (International)] Mr.MEX:
Along the way you need to flash through the programming (via JTAG), died loader ...
[LG Optimus G (International)] MZO:
It is already solved. Please do not bump old threads.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeny2010:
I'm going to flash the new ROM over my 4.4.2 S4 LTE. After flashing this new ROM, what are the necessary steps I should do to get my phone rooted?

Which are the compatible flashing/rooting programs to use for this new ROM?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
You're talking about official 5.0.1?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeny2010:
Yes. That's the ROM I'm talking about. I've just flashed Philipz recovery using Odin and everything looking fine. However, I still get the default recovery and not the PhilipZ version.

Is the 5.0.1 not ready for the present recover like Chainfire or Philipz?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
I had problems flashing recovery on stock kitkat. Used a workaround with Nandroid manager from play. But you need root for that..

Maybe try a different recovery. I don't see why PhilZ would be the only one to work with the 5.0 rooting method presented somewhere around the forum.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lennyz1988:
A recovery has nothing to do with the version of the rom you have flashed.

Uncheck auto-reboot before flashing the rom with Odin.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greeny2010:
Will give this a try.

Update - No go with what you have described. Stuck at the end of Odin flashing. Have to pull out the battery. Luckily, phone still can boot but with the default recovery.

[Sony Smartwatch 3] speedyg0nz:
Considering the Sony M4 has a cap-less USB port for charging (Link: http://developer.sonymobile.com/201...terproof-smartphone-with-octa-core-processor/), would you prefer to have a similar design on a smartwatch or would you go with tried and tested a magnetic charging port that exists on most of their phones?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] tu3218:
So with capless usb port, the port is just exposed? But still remains water proof? Just a little confused by that.

I'm torn about charging methods. I love that the Sony SW3 has usb charging because that means I can use any charger I want, charge it in the car, charge it wherever because usb chargers are everywhere. But it's not the most convenient method either. So I really wouldn't like another charger mechanism that I have to worry about bringing with me everywhere if I will need to charge my watch. Tough decision. But I want to know more about this capless USB.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] speedyg0nz:
The cap-less design is apparently water resistant even though the port is exposed. Sony does caveat by saying that the port should be completely dry before charging though.

From the press release: "Do note that the Xperia M4 Aqua has a capless USB port to connect and charge your smartphone. The USB port needs to be fully dried up before charging if the smartphone has been exposed to water."
[Sony Smartwatch 3] TheeDesecrator:
Fascinating. I definitely wouldn't want to lose Micro-USB. That was a huge selling point. I don't get my watch wet except by accident, so keeping it dry isn't an issue with me. I would like that, but I'm curious how many actually do use the watch for short swims.

[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehast:
My tablet is unrooted, untouched, unmolested, etc. Running 5.0.1 from the ota update.

My tablet's battery died while I was using it a few hours ago. I put it on the charger and wait a bit before turning it on. It boots up normally but I'm immediately greeted with the "power off" message box as soon as android loads. I've done fastboot and did the recovery boot (whatever that means in this case) and nothing I have tried has helped.

I'm afraid of tampering with it to install custom roms, because if that doesn't work the warranty would be void.

Anyone experience this problem before?
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FoxyDrew:
Sounds unusual but my only recommendation is to leave it on the charger overnight to get it fully powered up.

If not, you might have to boot into the stock recovery and perform a factory reset. At that point if it still doesn't work, if your tablet is completely unrooted with a locked bootloader, just send it to Nvidia.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehast:
Yeah it sounds like it's gonna get rma'd. It was charging the whole time, in the 4 or so seconds it was on the lockscreen before turning off it would show the battery percentage at something like 60%+, so it was definitely charging.

After enough tries it just wouldn't even give me the nvidia start up splash screen. I managed to do a factory reset (which seemed to take a really long time). The factory reset let it get back to the lockscreen but it immediately turned off again.

Other things for people who might have this problem as well:

It started after I put in a 32gb micro SD card I bought for it. I think the SD card is fine because it works in my phone.

Also this tablet was only about 4 days old when it broke.

The tablet is completely stock. I'm lucky it broke so soon as I was about to root it.

I have a weird camera bug on my phone.

Since a few days ago, every time I switch to the front camera, the camera app crashes and I have to force close and delete data to get it working againg.

This happens on multiple roms with multiple camera apps, so it has to be hardware related.

I opened up my phone to change the screen a few weeks again, but everything was working fine after that until now.

Now the thing is, I opened up the phone again to see if maybe the cable went loose, which it didn't, but when the back was removed the camera was working correctly.

Closed up the phone again, same thing as before, front camera does not work.

What could the reason for this be?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zerosum0:
It's software not hardware. Mine won't take screen photo's. It says not enough memory with 4gigs free. I use a widget with extensive reboot /recovery options and that has a screen grab that works. I've had the bugs you have and had to switch roms, providing it's software

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chad_Petree:
Is Ambient display supposed to keep "pulsating" until I check the notifications?

I don't fully understand ambient display, how is it supposed to work? When I receive a notification, the display is supposed to light up and then turn itself off a few seconds ago (kinda like the iphone does ) until I pick up the phone and then it automatically turns on the display and show me the black & white version of the lockscreen , right? But why is it that sometimes the display keeps "pulsating" every couple of seconds like it does when you get a notification but it doesn't stop until I check it? Is this behavior app independent? :confused:
