Thanks for this thread!

It is really sad to see PA Gapps to be gone, because it was really THE best gapps I came across.

When I searched for alternatives I came across your thread and also these gapps.

I would like to share it with everyone and maybe the [MENTION=6309748]TheXGX[/MENTION] can add it in the OP and the users who made it can be credited.

WHat apps are exaclty included in this? Hard to tell in zip. I see in priv-app it has messenger whihc I surely do not want. How would I modify the package? Do I just delete the apps from the priv-app folder, or is there more to it? I really only want the core app, including play store, play services, and google search app. that is it. I am minimal. lol
[Android Software Development] phil_greg2001:
Yes this is minimal Gapps and you can delete messenger... and add others apps

Great Idea

I am wondering how you will organize the GAPPS packages and providers? Thank You for stepping up!
[Android Software Development] ziggyke:
Maybe organize by using a matrix like overview, otherwise it can indeed be overwhelming for users new to gapp packages.

Should use my brain a little bit more to investigate how I can help the OP user with organizing the available gapp packages.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seigard:
Hello everyone.

I have been using my phone for almost 3 years with no issues but recently found out it has the insane chip. After that my phone started going mental with all the reboots and freezes but the worst of all is that suddenly it changed into ''modified'' even though I never rooted. And at the same time with that I got a ''no service''.

I can not call or message or use 4g, only wifi works.

I tried manually entering APN, didnt work

I tried bunch of video instructions on youtube, didnt work

I have no experience in things like rooting or flashing or roms but I went ahead and tried rooting with some automatic program called

Kingoroot. Then I used bunch of different programs like gs2 repair and busybox to see if its about my imei being blocked or something.

Still didnt work.

Weird thing is, my sim card works on other phones but other sim cards still dont work on my phone so I'm guessing its completely on the phone.

Are there any solutions to this because I dont want to buy a new phone while this one is still working? Also since I have no idea about what roms are and all, would be awesome if you told it more detailed.

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seigard:

Just rolled back to no root but weird thing is, even after unrooting it still shows modified.

Some of the solutions I've heard require me to do some software update and delete cache but cant because of the modified state.

hi there,

have you tried using your s pen on another note 3?

i have a note 3 sm-n900 and i am having a similar issue. In my case however, the difference is that although the s pen is working, the button on the side of the pen doesn't work. I tried my pen on another note 3 and the button worked. I guess it's a software related issue. I even tried reflashing the firmware with no luck.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vicecitymetal:
Hi guys!

I hope you can help me, After trying to install the official LG G2 ROM 5.0 bassed on the korean model (with twrp) I had a hard brick.

Had quite a hard time trying to get my phone back to life, finally was able to go back to stock with lg flash tool. I downloaded the TOT file for EUR INT.

Kernel: 3.4.0

Compilation: JDQ39B

Software: D80210b-214-07

Now the phone is working perfect but I´m back to 4.2.2 which sucks as I was trying to get to 5.01 :cyclops:

I can´t update with LG PC suit as it won´t recognise my phone, and the update sofware app in the phone says I have the latest software available....

I´ve been checking and it turns out that the correct orignial software for my phone was the version D802 V20B.

Can it be that the reason that I can´t update the software from LG, or is not possible to do this after flashing a custom rom and back to "stock"??

Thanks guys for your help!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
Are you expecting to get an OTA update to LP? Lollipop hasn't even been released yet for the International variant.

If you're trying to get back to KK just use a site like LG Firmware ROM to download a KDZ file based on your IMEI and flash it with the LG Flash Tool. If you have a D802 you don't need to bother with using TOT files. Using the site I mentioned should download you the latest KK released for your phone.

Note: Just wait a few months for Lollipop, honestly.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vicecitymetal:
Thanks for the fast reply! No I just want KK

iI do that will I be able to get the official lollipop from Lg pc suit or is there no going back? ;)

I suppose I'd better do a fresh install? Or will it be ok just to install on top so I wont lose all the apps etc again?

Thanks !
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
Once Lollipop is released officially then yes, you will be able to update to it via the suite or over the air.

I'm not quite sure of the context of your other 2nd question.

Note: It's nice to hit the "thanks" button if you are thankful of a reply. Saying thank you and not hitting the thanks button is like a slap in the face :p.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vicecitymetal:
In the second question I ment, would you recomend normal flash or CSE?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d00lz:
Try Normal Flash first to keep your data. Sometimes Normal Flash will constantly fail. In that case, do a Full Wipe/Fresh Install (CSE).

NOTE: BACKUP YOUR DATA/PICTURES/MUSIC BEFORE DOING ANYTHING, IN THE CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mirekluza:
I have just one issue after switching to Windows Mobile 6 (at first "Faria real thing", now "Crossbow Reloaded"). Sometimes the phone behaves as if the sound was switched off.

I read various discussions about which radio ROM is better etc. for not missing calls, but I guess it is not that problem. The call gets through (so I guess radio rom is ok). When having the phone in such state, I checked it by calling from the fixed phone on my desk - the call got through, there was message on the display that somebody is calling (just the ring was silent).

Once in such situation I tried to switch on/off the phone application - no change. The one thing which seems to cure it reliably is to go to the phone settings (I usually try the ringing tone I use - it works ok - and press ok). Afterwards it is normal (the phone rings).

I have not found yet any pattern when this happens... Is it possible that the phone somehow loses setting (about the set ringing tone, or about volume) and it is fixed by going to phone settings?

Has anybody else such experiences?

Othewise I am happy with WM 6 (especially I like "Internet Sharing", quicker booting and the fact that when running "Opera Mini" in "Midlet Manager" it no longer ignores hardware soft keys). Just this think is a bit of nuisance.

Mirek
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mfrazzz:
I've seen this a few times myself, and yes, just playing your ringtone via the Phone Settings will fix this issue. I can say that I haven't seen this issue in some time, and thats since I stopped using the press & Hold of the CommManager button (upper left side of the phone) to switch my phone in and out of Vibrate mode. I used to use that to do a quick switch and it seemed sometimes after coming back out of vibrate mode, this issue would happen (not always, but a few times). I've now quit using that button that way and I don't think I've had the non-ring issue since.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development] mirekluza:
Thanks you for the information, I will try it. It may have been the problem with that button - I mapped there task manager which I use often and pressed it sometimes a bit longer...

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pamarakos:
Hi all

Can I find somewhere the stock kernel of xxu1ane2 official firmware (I already have it downloaded from sammobile) or extract it and flash via odin (is it the boot.img if I extract the fw? Can I flash it via odin straight away?) because I need to make smart view app from samsung to work and it only works with stock kernel? I managed to make mirrorlink work ok with help of a member on custom kernel, but smart view app denies either on lollipop or kitkat!!

If I install it, will it overwrite the cwm I have now installed?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sp3d00:
First of all: flashing a kernel will override the kernel, not the recovery.

Original kernels will mostly only work with Sammy Roms! Otherwise you could run into bootloop.

If you r using CM vor any other NOT Sammy based Rom you should not try to flash the stock kernel because it is not build for AOSP/CM.

You're giving too few details. Android 4.x.x covers three different releases of Android (Ice Cream Sandwich, Jelly Bean, Kitkat) what is the exact OS version?

Every vendor and Android version handles this differently. There may be a item in system settings to alter this behavior, if not, you almost certainly need root (and then Xposed/Link2SD/FolderMount)
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silac_8:
Hello, xiaomi users!

I bought my MI3 phone last year in July. Since then, I've been taking care of battery. I've been keeping it from 30 to 70 percent all the time. But it became hard for me to take care of the battery, because I don't want to be tied to outlet all the time.

Now I have few questions for you.

Has anyone actually tried to take out and replace the battery? Was the process hard? Did you damage anything? There is some tutorial on ifixit.com. Did you follow it?

Did you buy those $15 batteries from eBay? Are they comparable to original one?

Thank you in advance for your answers!

But thank you anyway.
[Mi 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SerjP:
Well, keeping the battery from 30% to 70% all the time is not necessary good idea. It may help, but I read articles about deep analyzis of Li-Ion battery tests. And the goal was to measure of the influence of discharge level on the battery life. The results actually shows that the depth of the battery discharge has almost no influence on the batttery life. It is because if you discharge battery until zero (and not until 20-30-40%), your phone works longer, so the count of charge/discharge cycles is lower over years.

Anyway I'm not going to provide so many details here. Just wanted to show you that you may not neccessary need to keep eyes on the battery so much. As it will not give you comparable longer battery life until replacement.

Sorry I have not saved the link to that article. If you unable to find it, please ping me.

Regarding replacement. I'm not going to do it during first 3 years of phone usage. So can't help you with suggestion on the Ebay good supplier. You can try to just order it from good rated sellers if you beleive your battery is already dead.

It is easy to replace battery if you have technical background. There are dissasembly instructions available on the Internet. Here is one of them http://en.miui.com/thread-29887-1-1.html

Also I have seen good video on youtube.

But it seems that battery replacement task isn't that hard to do. All you have to do is follow this tutorial:

https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Xiaomi+Mi3+Touchscreen+Replacement/31237

And if something isn't clear, you'd normally refer to this youtube video:

PLEASE NOTE:

Guy on youtube video doesn't have NFC sticker on the battery! If you have built-in NFC in your mobile (which probably you DO have), please refer to link on ifixit.com, because you could easily broke your NFC chip if you don't know how to remove it.

I haven't replaced my battery yet, but I think I figured it out. If there is something that needs clarification, please send me a PM.

Hey Guys, I just bought the 64GB OPO from Amazon India. As per the latest CM fiasco, Indian users aren't supposed to get official upgrade to CM12s in India. But, can I manually install CM12 (not CM12s) on my Indian OPO? Will that cause any problems?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aditya Srinidhi:
There is no problem, you can still update to CM12s because pepper are still continuing to receive OTA updates. There should be no issues, you can install a VPN and just change location in order to receive the OTA even for 12s.

And yes you can install CM12 for the opo, I've been running on cm12 on my opo since December, there are a ton of cm12 based ROMs in the development section, or you can choose to use the official nightlies from CM, but these are usually buggy.

It will not cause any problem, at the most if you screw up really bad, you can end up soft bricking the device, but it can still be fixed.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heisenberg:
You can indeed flash CM12 onto your device, and you can flash CM12S onto your device when it's released. You can flash any OnePlus One ROM. Check out my guide thread here:

Follow sections 1, 2, 3, and 5 to get CM12 (or any ROM) onto your phone. And make sure you make a backup of your EFS partition by following section 10 too.

Please note: unlocking the bootloader erases all user data from the phone so it's best to do this before you really start using the device.

[General Topics] Genericxx:
I'm writing this in General Section, beause it seems like this is related to Lollipop rather than device dependant. I am facing this issue since using 5.0, while there were never any problems on KitKat. The devices of some friends show similar behaviour. For your Interest: I'm running an OnePlus One with CM12 based Android 5.02 and latest Google Play Services.

Usually i switch on WiFi and disable mobile data manually while at home. It turns out that i don't receive any Push Notifications like WhatsApp, Threema, Facebook and GMail/Inbox (those who are using gcm) when the device is connected to WiFi only and goes into deep sleep. If i unlock the device after a certain amount of time, a bunch of notifications are popping up. This is reproducable and won't occur if only mobile data is enabled. In this case they arrive instantly. I've worked around this issue by setting "Keep WiFi on during sleep" to "never", so that WiFi is only active if the screen is turned on, but this isn't really a satisfying solution.

For me it seems like my device turns WiFi to sleep too if screen turns off, although this isn't visible through Battery Stats, where WiFi is shown as active the whole time, or at least disables any sync service meanwhile. I've tested this with a couple of AOSP and CM based ROMS and different Kernels. I've even tried older Google Play Services. Passing on denying "Wake up" and "Keep Awake" to Google Play Services, as i usually do to limit battery drain, won't change anything.

Anyone else got kinda issues and can enlighten me about what's the culprit or if this has been fixed with Android 5.1?
