[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mahasamatman:
I've had a look in the forums and can't find anything that covers this specific question so am hoping someone can help.

I'm currently running the latest CM12 highly build on a Tab S 8.4 and it's flying along. But there's a nagging annoyance that there are still a load of additional apps there that I don't want, mainly stuff like Play Games,Movies and Music and now I've switched to Outlook and the Gmail App, I don't need the standard email app (although this seems to be built into the CM12 package). But I do want things like the Kindle App, Chrome and, if possible, Maps.

Over the weekend I tried to run with just the CM12 build and then add applications from APKMirror. This worked OK with Kindle but Chrome wouldn't install and my tablet seemed unstable so I reverted to the latest nightly plus the gapps package,

So my question is, has anyone done this - just install the CM11 or CM12 build and then get everything else they want through downloading APKs individually?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mahasamatman:
Answering my own question I found this Minimal GAPPS which gives you a build that includes pretty much only the App Store from which you can then download the additional Apps you want.

It's not what I really wanted to do but is as close as makes no difference.

Hi,

Can anyone upload a stock framework-res.apk for me?

Thank you! :)
[LG G2 Mini] Vagelis1608:
Did you delete it?

Besides, you will also need framework-res.odex

[LG Optimus G Pro] Ponder Stibbons:
Hi all,

help is needed.

I want to install Cyanogenmod nightly ([Official Android 5.0.2] [CM 12 - Nightly]) on my LG Optimus G Pro E986.

Currently I am using CM11-M12 with CWM v6.0.4.7 as recovery and I think I must switch to a newer CWM to install gapps 5.0x. Please correct me if I am wrong.

What is the preferred recovery (CWM, TWRP, Philz Touch) for me?

Many thanks in advance,

Ponder

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superjoe:
I just bought a used Nexus 6 and when I have the camera app open the image jerks back and forth with a physical click/clack. It pretty much does it back and forth once time, every two seconds. I can only assume it is the OIS malfunctioning. Does that sound right? Has anybody else experienced this?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucke:
OIS is fubar'ed... Return it/RMA it

this happened with my first one, and now my second one is perfect.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superjoe:
Okay thanks, thats about what I figured.

Did they RMA it for you with no issues. I'm having this issue now on a refurbished unit I got from Motorola.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dywerd:
Hi everyone!

I need help! I have a Philips PI3900B2/58 7" tablet with android 4.1. I supercharge it and then I patched the service.jar wit Ultimatic Jar Patcher Tool, but after a reboot it stuck in a bootloop :(. Now I think I upgrade my tablet software for the pi3900b2_93_fus_aen version but no luck. I grab a 2GB sd card and format it (FAT3), and then copy over the unzipped files over the root of the sd card. I shut down the tab and insert the sd card and hold the on/off button while its start upgrading, but at half its stops and says that:

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

Installing update...

assert failed: !less_than_int(1397813208, getprop("ro.build.date.utc"))

Installation aborted.

I try factory reset, wipe cache, wipe media partition without any luck. I try modify the build.prop file with notepad++ but when I try to flash it gave me error.

Any other idea?

I write on the Philips support forum but no replay :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dywerd:
Anyone? Please help!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dywerd:
Solved!

I search the net for other firmeware for my tablet, but none of them working (pi3900b2_58/93), so I combined them. I copied the udate.zip from the 58 to 93 and than flash it. And the update process go on, really slow, but go on, and the tablet restart! It take so much time, but it started!

Now it's download from the google play....

Thx for helping!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] francoivan:
So, we can say you have a working firmware for the tablet? There's nothing out there!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dywerd:
Yes. I have.

You can find it on Philips web site.

Hi guys just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction to a guide or tools to create a cab file.

Never done this before so not sure how easy or hard it is so no flameing please ;)

Want to create a cab file for my operator settings.

Thanks, Chris.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Andy Phillips:
Use WinCE Cab Manager

As above!

You can find the demo version here;

http://www.ocpsoftware.com/products.php?nm=cecabmgr

and the full version but it ain't cheap!

If you google hard enough I'm sure you can find the full version for less...if you now what I mean!!:D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] se4me:
Thanks ill take a look, and do some searching ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] se4me:
found it in 30 seconds ;) now to have a play around with it, cheers
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Andy Phillips:
Tips

Here's some tips for using WinCe Cab Manager;

If you want to import reg files make sure the file has REGEDIT4 at the first line.

You cant export reg files unless you you highlight the registry tree in cab manager

When creating a new cab select 'allow the application to be installed on any device' and on the next page 'All/CEF'.

Read the help file....it's not too bad!;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Antzzz:
A little bit late, but how about this (free!) installation creator:

http://www.aperitto.com/content/view/14/28/

Works very well, and the developer is quite responsive to requests for bug fixes/features. Very powerful program as well, as far as I can see it does everything that the commercial installation creators can do.

It is based on/uses the very popular Inno Setup PC installation creation program.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumit77seo:
My device is new model in my country named 'Infocus M2'. I rooted this phone few days ago via a Chinese desktop software. Everything was working fine until today when software update came. I downloaded the update and phone stock recovery opened and then android with exclamation mark came. I restarted phone but it stuck on boot loop. I didn't install any recovery like CWM/TWRP or didnt flash any rom. Just rooted the phone. Any help guys?? My device is MediaTek 6582 and now recovery is also not opening.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DbzMihir:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumit77seo:
I visited the service center today. They are telling that Rom is corrupted, so we have to change the motherboard. They were saying that they will possibly deliver in 4-5 days.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DbzMihir:
They told me may be a software issue if resolved then will give by 2-3 days.

What I feel is the Chinese rooting software curropted the recovery and thus its not going to recovery also. So that may be the issue however unless someone posts how to flash the recovery we are helpless :(

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E-Chan42:
I just aquired a z3 after my note 3 got stolen, and up to now I'm loving it.

right away I rooted my phone to change the navbar buttons around since I became too acustomed to the "back, home, menu" layout, and while I was at it I was thinking on flashing some custom ROM, but since SONY's stock is pretty neat I thought I'd give it a shot.

Would I be losing any important exclusive features by flashing Cyanogen? I'm not really worried about Dualshok 3 pairing and sony's wakman app, but I'm wondering if there's any indispensable feature I'm sacrificing.

All together I'm really happy with this phone but I want to make the most of it, what do veteran z3 users have to say on the matter?

Thanks
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rozamar:
Using stock for half an year now and loving it.

Welcome to the club!

I never saw a reason to use cyanogen...
[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] E-Chan42:
Well I really enjoy the minimalistic, clean and simple look and feel of most custom ROMs like Cyano and Paranoid Android, but Xperia Stock leaves a pretty small footprint on your phone since most stuff is optional, hardly annoying and hardly ever gets in the way

Notice:

These links are all tested by at least someone. Nothing here will be completely untested. Most stuff I flash to my own phone. Exceptions might be some carrier zips which would require me to do a full backup and conversion and then restore, which is time consuming, so, simply put: 401's are always tested by me, the others sometimes but mostly by others.​

[One (M9) Android Development] fearomoon:
Does it work with TMOB101 CID too or only HTC xxx CID?
[One (M9) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
TMUS has had different Radio requirements on the M8. This is still open to investigation. My buddy [MENTION=4174733]Behold_this[/MENTION] is getting his M9 shortly though and he is TMUS. We will work it out in no time.

Other than that, you are aware you will need S-OFF to flash any non-TMUS firmware, right?
[One (M9) Android Development] fearomoon:
Ja but there is no soff yet for m9 isnt it
[One (M9) Android Development] Behold_this:
Hey guys, just chiming in here. That is actually not T-Mobile USA. Going by his CID, that is T-Mobile Deutschland. T-Mobile USA's CID is T-MOB010. The two CID are very similar so easy mistake to make. Unfortunately I have no access to any firmware for T-Mobile Deutschland.
[One (M9) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
I expect it to arrive shortly. SunShine has already tweeted they managed to find a vulnerability and create an exploit, so all they have to do now is automate the process enough for Eejits. Guess it won't be long.

Oops! Thanks for the correction. Looking into my sheet reveals you are spot-on once again. Eagle Eye friend!

In this case, fearomoon, you can flash 401 (WWE) firmware no problem. TmoDE uses international frequencies for GSM, UMTS, LTE and WiFi. But you will still need S-OFF.
[One (M9) Android Development] herwegan:
Apart from not having s-off at the moment i'd really recommend you to wait with firmware flashing until we made some testing (which also depends on when we will get s-off).
[One (M9) Android Development] Behold_this:
Wise words!

@ everyone

Soon all aspects of hima development will take off. We just need to all practice a little patience and caution at the moment.
[One (M9) Android Development] HolyAngel:
here's dev edition 1.32.617.30 firmware zip, no signature on it. was able to extract in linux from the ota and rezip

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934550601
[One (M9) Android Development] herwegan:
thanks mate.

this is not adressed to [MENTION=1211160]HolyAngel[/MENTION]; he provides those files to us to be worked on. I just want to state it clear for all you guys right from the beginning:

Do NOT(!) post any other (modified) Firmware files in my thread meant for general public to be downloaded! Except you provide those files for me to work with them (not meant to be downloaded by public and declared like that!). Thank you.
[One (M9) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
I might need to add (because that statement wasn't entirely clear to me when i read it):

Files from the first post have undergone flash tests and can be considered reasonably safe. Files posted along the line of this thread can be anything. Only files moved to the first post and the Link Sheet can be considered safe.

Any other file - since it is public here in this thread - can of course be flashed but we do NOT take any blame for issues arising from flashing such.

There is an exception currently though: the files available for download on Post 1 at this time are "In Waiting" for being tested. There is no S-OFF yet. So, these files cannot be flashed and cannot be tested either. Once S-OFF is available to me or Herwegan or both of us, we will get on it and see if its possible and safe to flash stuff like we used to on the M7 and M8.

Things will slowly evolve.

Also, everybody scouring the forums for input is warmly invited to contribute knowledge. We all know things have changed with the M9. Stuff works slightly different now. To establish a "safe flashing" hub, we need to find out as much as possible.

I expect Error Codes to (maybe) change, methods to change, just basically anything we know from before is in question. The first page posts will be updated along the way. Up until now, most stuff has been taken from my M8 thread and is not automatically valid for the M9 just because it says it in this thread. Things WILL change. The posts WILL be altered. So come back and read occasionally.

Whenever there are important news to share about anything, we will also post about it and keep you updated. Not only change the first page ;)

[MENTION=1211160]HolyAngel[/MENTION] do you by chance have the base RUU.zip that goes before this OTA firmware? Its incomplete, so in order to create our FullWipe and NoWipe stuff for Dev, we'd need a complete base that can be updated by this OTA.

HTC ROM Downloads doesn't cater for M9 yet.
[One (M9) Android Development] HolyAngel:
[MENTION=1102297]Sneakyghost[/MENTION]

I unfortunately do not have any RUU for dev edition, I wish I did :crying:

There's a ton of RUU's on ir-files but none for dev there either.. I do have stock system.emmc.win nand from 617.6 that is confirmed to work from [MENTION=4182302]Nemeth27[/MENTION] to ota up to .30 with and what I just used myself to ota up not 10 minutes ago, but thats about it at the moment :/
[One (M9) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
Yea ok thanks mate. That'll be cool for people just wanting to update the stock way but not for creating full RUU like firmware packages unfortunately, as you might have guessed :D
[One (M9) Android Development] clsA:
Not sure where I found it but I have the Developer Edition RUU.zip here >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934550733

[One (M9) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
617 isn't De as far as I know. At least I don't even have it in my list. Can you post the CID's from the RUU? I'm mobile the next few days.

[EDIT]

DE as in dev edition sorry didn't get that... Thought you meant DE as in country code.

So that's the new dev edition SKU then?
[One (M9) Android Development] Behold_this:
Yup.

Developer edition ROMs for previous devices, like the M8, have been built off of the generic BrightstarUS World Wide English ROM base and used region/carrier code 1540, example:

BrightstarUS_WWE_4.16.1540.8 (from HTC One M8)

The developer edition ROM for the M9 is built off of the ATT North America ROM base and use region/carrier code 617, example:

ATT_NA_Gen_Unlock_1.32.617.30 (current HTC One M9 dev/unlocked)

There are many ROMs built off of the ATT_NA base. All Canadian ROMs for example, but for Dev edition, just remember:

1540=Brightstar Unlocked/Dev Edition (pre M9)

617=ATT North America Unlocked/Dev Edition (M9)

Anyway, that is the reason behind the change, but don't ever forget, you know HTC, sometimes they just change for change sake.?

Happy Easter everyone!

[One (M9) Android Development] scotty1223:
Cards can be legally obtained. Repair shops and resellers are able to purchase legitimate cards and diag files from HTC.

Unfortunately, they can be cloned so may not always be an actual HTC card. Diags are not leaked like they used to be,and are getting harder to come by. They are guarded pretty closely,and have to be purchased as new devices come out. Most of us are getting by without them.

Don't misunderstand, I'm not advocating java card s off or arguing that you should link to that or JTAG. Sunshine is the best and most user friendly way to s off the devices it works on. However,for carrier blocked devices(verizon) and devices that are non booting,it can be a solution.

Sent from my Nexus 9
[One (M9) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
Oh thanks for that info Scotty. I was under the impression HTC didn't sell those cards. Thought they're just being used in their service contractors places like Regenersis and Arvato here in Europe.

I'm pretty confident those Chinese cards on Ali Express and similar places are clones though. Couldn't imagine HTC selling those quantities to public places...
[One (M9) Android Development] scotty1223:
you can prolly tell a real card by the cost... lol ;) and the fact that the seller will be able to provide diags. just to be clear,the cards are not sold by htc to just anyone. when you buy a real card it will be from a legit reseller(hence the hihger cost),and those guys are harder to find. they would rather sell s off/unlock than sell the cards.
[One (M9) Android Development] vegetaleb:
Since the only S-OFF is a paying method for M9, only this method and relock unroot and flash the stock ROM that was in the phone for getting OTA will update the FW?

I have HTC_J15 which is HTC Middle East, I usually flashed the European GSM FW which were totally compatible with HTC_J15 back on M7 and M8 (no supercid).

So can we flash the FW using the SDcard method with S-ON?
[One (M9) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
1.32.617.30 Developer/Unlocked Firmware packages added.

It appears to be working to just flash an untouched, stock Firmware zip, just like before, but if you do that, you need to keep in mind that OTA firmware packages are incremental, so before flashing a newer one, you need to be on the correct previous version.

It will be better to S-OFF and use a RUU. Or my FULL zips. Or use a full RUU for your version, if available...

_______________________________________________

Added FullStock and NoWipe versions for Developer/Unlocked version 1.32.617.30 (617 now replaces the formerly used 1540 for Dev/Unl.)

Good to know, I can't get SOFF because I am in Lebanon and can't pay with Paypal (not working here)

Why on earth SOFF is a paid thingy? it was always free
[One (M9) Android Development] Sneakyghost:
We don't discuss that here. But you are free to join SunShine team on IRC and discuss payment methods with them. I know they have other customers from Lebanon. You can reach them here: SunShine IRC and their Ticket-System is here.
[One (M9) Android Development] darkenedpath:
I took my At&t my9 and converted to the developer edition. I then took the unlocked edition firmware that was posted. I assume since it was a at&t device is originally had, those radios worked the best. Unless you just want a developer editon m9 it really isn't too much useful to change firmware. I ran a stock rom on each firmware, then ran viper to see the difference. Unless you need to convert carriers "GSM", I didn't see too much difference in anything, atleast on my phone. I would try T-Mobile but I don't have a sim card to try at the moment. Unless [MENTION=1102297]Sneakyghost[/MENTION] has anything else he would like me to try, that all I can give ATM. Thanks for the firmware sir.
