OK. But where does the stock recovery have an option to wipe cache? When I boot to recovery it just shows the screen with an android opened up in the middle and nothing else.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
Sorry for this but I have to say something!!!

As for the others on here installing adaway or other ad block apps or mods for ad blocking they will not work as you or me do not have full access to /SYSTEM you and me do not have full root!! That is why I baked in the HOST file from ad-away in to the IMG. Please do not post on this forum that you are running / installed adaway and stuff you are making others confused and they pm me asking how to install adaway. There is no install just flash the IMG 1.5.2a with ad blocking and your DONE.

The host file in 1.5.2a works very well and is blocking 99% of all ads.

I got up today ready to work on some new stuff for this img and I had 10 pm's asking how to install adaway !!! Come on guys Read !!!

I do not mind PM's but when it has been clear from DAY 1 on mofo site and videos out there that you do not have full root.

On top of it when you use adaway and it patches the host file it is doing so in a temp RW to your ram and making your phone slow and unstable !!!

Sorry for the rant.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] savagebunny:
That's why I baked the hosts in myself. I used the MoAB colab hosts and it blocks everything. Any time I've ran a hosts on any of my android phones, my web browsing, app loading has been quicker hands down. If you're experiencing slow downs, you're doing something wrong. I haven't seen slow downs in the past 5 years of modding androids with a new hosts file
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
Yes go watch this video will show you how to get past that screen. VIDEO
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] LeoD:
When you get to that screen press and hold the up volume for about 5 seconds then hit power it will bring up recovery
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] Butcher98:
So if I have Xposed setup with another image and decide to flash this one do I need to put the jar file back again or will it stay? Just curious. Want some ad blocking! Lol
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] janitorjohnson:
Thanks guys. You rock! Glad there's no flaming replies.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
Lol ... Just keep your /data/xposed folder and .JAR and you will be good to go with any IMG with or without xposed.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] LeoD:
Agreed no process crashes, nice and smooth.

I would like to also again thank you for everything you have been doing here
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] Butcher98:
I flashed, could not get into recovery before or after, I got the Android with the red triangle. Wanted to wipe cache but oh well, running great so far.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] KaneD20:
How long to clear the cache?

In the past when I've cleared the cache it took only seconds. Now when I try to clear the cache it seems to take a while. How long is it taking everyone else? Right now it's just in recovery mode with a blue "progress bar" at the bottom (with the blue orb spinning in the Android's chest). It has been doing this for several minutes now.

Edit: Well, it just finished. Strange though, it took several minutes (5 - 7) whereas TWRP or ClockWork only ever took seconds. I know they are different recoveries and all, just thought it strange.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] trikotret:
it can take anywhere between 5 min to even 30 min. Depends how often you used to clean cache.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] KaneD20:
Thanks for the reply. It must have finished right when you were responding. I'm just not used to it taking so long. Oh well, all is good (so far).
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] NessLookAlike:
Ah, I figured it out. I looked around in /data for any mention of "xposed" and didn't see anything, but after following this guy's instructions everything worked, so I'm happy! :) I started with 1.4 and flashed 1.5 on top. I thought there was supposed to be an "xposed" folder in /data, which led to my confusion.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] Metfanant:
Anyone else having the issue I've been having with losing root access? I was hoping flashing 1.5 would help, but it has not...

-after flashing I have root, everything works fine...

- after some time I just "lose" root...root checker fails...titanium says I don't have root, greenify won't hibernate apps...and SuperSU tells me that there is no SU binary installed...

If I reboot the phone everything functions as normal for awhile, and then it happens all over again...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] kitcostantino:
tell me if this sounds weird. everytime I try to clear my cache in stock recovery it takes forever. literally, the last two times, I have given up after 5-10 min, powered down, then booted. the phone had the same behavior prior to mofo.

mind you, fastboot erase cache works pretty much instantly, but afterwards it does not (as I suspect it should) boot up with the " Android is Upgrading" dialogue.

The only thing I can imagine is when I downgraded back to my original firmware via FXZ, something could have gotten stuck. Some apps (especially ones that have data that changes frequently like XDA) will load for way longer than they should. I haven't killed my data, though, so maybe its factory reset/fxz time. ;)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] KaneD20:
If you look like two posts up I had the same issue. After about 5 - 7 minutes my phone finished clearing the cache and rebooted. Another user said that the cache clear can take up to 30 minutes (I'm guessing this is from prior experience). I would just make sure the phone has plenty of juice, clear the cache and let it be until it reboots automatically.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] kitcostantino:
well, no "Android is upgrading", etc, but it did finish this time. thank you
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] KaneD20:
Yeah, it definitely threw me off too.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] KevTN:
everytime I tried to download 1.5 w/o ad and no matter what mirror I try to download I keep getting a 405 error

Thanks...

Never mind...was getting error in explorer but np with chrome
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] kitcostantino:
I actually think that dialogue only shows when dalvik-cache is wiped.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] KevTN:
Which xposed framework app are ypou using from the playstore? Thanks...never used exposed before..
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] LeoD:
I wouldn't say weird, I would expect mileage to vary with the cache depending what you do with your phone. I *think* this has more to do with how the dt formats. I'm thinking like with a pc you can simply delete to get rid of files verses formatting which of course takes longer. At least this is my thoughts.

BTW - it usually takes me about 2 minutes to clear my cache I'm not getting what I see others saying they get. However I think nothing of going back to 21.21.15 and starting all over with a clean image

With that said If it was me, yeah I would FXZ back to 21.21.15 and take my updates then mofo to root
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] CoreyWillWhat:
It isn't in the play store but heres the link to xposed website with the apk. I used the experimental release on that page. Ive had no issues at all.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] crashcarstar:
Thanks a lot for putting this together. I'm trying to switch the default emojis with Emoji Switcher. I've moved it to /system/app on my own and flashed it over, but after trying to switch them I don't have any emojis at all anymore. Any ideas on what I could try?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] crashcarstar:
Nevermind, it was easy enough to do it manually than to worry about an app not working. Thanks again!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] Coronado is dead:
Does this (1.5.2a) disable OTA updates automatically? if not, what should I do to disable that?

Thanks!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] LeoD:
Not sure if it's disabled in the img but this will work

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57436867&postcount=26

With everything removed from this img I'd be surprised if it allowed a OTA
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] usopen:
I hate to sound stupid but I have never owned anything other than HTC and this being my first Motorola Phone I have a newb question. Do I need to Root using Jcase & Beaups method first before trying to flash this ?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] LeoD:
You need to go here first to root

Quick update regarding V4A. Me and computer having been messaging back and forth trying to get V4A to work in his image. It works, but it doesn't work meaning maintence free. Both him and I believe in making sure the image is 100%. I personally don't like releasing stuff that isn't complete, and will cause a hassle to the end user. I've sent him the files I've used, and what files I've modified. Hopefully soon, he will have it baked in his image for release for the community.

I know how much V4A makes a difference to our audio systems. It was my #1 request for myself when we finally got root.

Anyways, hang in there. Gotta make sure it works the first time, and the end user doesn't have audio driver issues with the application.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] newskate9:
I used Coreywallen's quick xposed install recap and have it up and running with no issues. Good Lord, you guys are good. I haven't used viper with success in the past but can't wait to try that too.

I have to think of something for you guys to add, that is at least a challenge for you! ;) You all have made this phone a TON of fun!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
I updated the OP. Soon we will have an IMG up for you guys with V4A. This IMG with V4A the man hours [MENTION=3376265]savagebunny[/MENTION] and I have into it is crazy. So please read up on V4A be for you flash this IMG. If you need help on what music player to use with it and so on. Please just search around XDA or Google and you will find that info. I will help when I can but there is so much info on V4A there is no need to blowup this forum with stuff like that.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] mikera67:
Can't wait! Thanks for the hard work, f5 time!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] ahaynes42:
I had this issue as well. I was about to post the [Q] thread about it, but I see you joined in over there. Clearing the cache seems to have solved it for me. I haven't lost root in a few days.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
I have posted this If any of my IMG or any IMG for the droid with root or even without strat to give you trouble the best thing you can try is Clearing the cache if it is still doing crazy things then wipe the phone clean data and all then a fresh flash. I have tested the IMG's 100% for this kind of stuff I have in the last week I have been flashing IMG after IMG. Try this 1st and see if it helps also please be running 1.5.2a or newer. Hope this helps.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] newskate9:
OK, since flashing this 1.5.a, the ONLY problem I've had is being to get into recovery to clear cache. I haven't needed to - just seeing if I could do it!.

I cannot - I get the green guy on his back with the red triangle and exclamation point. I've tried going in through Quick Reboot app, xposed power key to recovery, and the volume down / power method. None of them get me to a recovery menu. I get into the menu that START, Bootloader Restart, QCOM, etc. but not in the set of menus that I can wipe cache, etc. Am I a dope and missing something? Or is there a problem I should try to correct?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] JakeDHS07:
Its volume up/power. Not volume down/power
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
Here is V4A https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934551700 I will update op soon when I get home.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] newskate9:
Not to start a fight......... but I found the volume DOWN/pwr from another post on this forum. AND, I can get to the "menu" as stated using the volume down. I tried volume up / pwr and all it does is restart the phone.

I want to flash the newest viper version - but would like to wipe cache first. Any other thoughts?

EDIT: I'm a dope. The vol up/pwr is after the green guy shows up.............. D'OH! Sorry all. I'm old.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] savagebunny:
You can flash it without wiping cache IMO. I haven't cleared cache for any of my builds. If I'm guessing correctly, the App Cache app on the stores wipes system cache, but I would be wrong.

EDIT: THe app I use is App Cache Cleaner. It cleans system cache.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] mikera67:
downloading now, thanks again!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
On my OP under help in a video someone made showing how to get into recovery. Please see the help info I posted.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] newskate9:
I did. Got it now. Thank you. BTW the download and install of new VIPER version was as smooooooooooth as silk.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] aFancyTickler:
As far as V4A goes , is it the highest quality install or just standard ?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] savagebunny:
EDIT: I was wrong, It's HQ. In my own image I'm using SQ
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
This is the HQ One right now in this ver I tested it all day. I will do an SQ Just give me time. I am setting up a better way to keep track of my IMG's on my end. But I have to say HQ sounds great and are CPU has the power for it. I have a few test builds I am working on with other audio mods and tweaks. I am setting up a website with better HELP links and videos. Links to all the builds and Test builds. I hope HQ is good for all of you right now battery has also been fine today. This is also using an tad bit of an older ver as the new ver keeps giving me an driver error if you wipe the phone clean. From what I was reading this ver is still the best one to use to keep it stable.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] mikera67:
Wow, just wow! Forgot how great v4a makes my mazda! Thank you works great!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] aFancyTickler:
isnt there a super quality version too ? as long as its the highest quality lol , gotta love tunes :P
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] savagebunny:
There are 3

Super High Quality (SQ)

High Quality (HQ)

Power Saving Mode( crap tier)
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] JakeDHS07:
Flashed the new IMG. Very happy to see V4A included. Though idk if you guys knew this but that isn't the current version of the app or driver.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
Everyone must like the V4A ver of 1.5.2 as there was 36 Downloads in 3 hours on it. I am still testing it just in case but it so far has been very stable. I put a Vote up on OP. If you all can take a look and vote.

As for OTA updates I did not remove update service as of yet. So please search or look a few pages back and block OTA updates. I have removed the service on my test build So the new set of my IMG's will have this.

I am also testing Google Now Launcher 5.0 Lollipop Check it out on YouTube if you have not seen it. I may put this build up later.

Thank you all for your support.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] -Michael_:
Thank you for all you have done! I've downloaded the v4a ver. But will flash when i get home. Again man your really doing us a service and I'm grateful.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
Yeah I posted that a few pages back that with the new ver. when I was testing if I wiped phone clean I was getting driver needs to be install this is the only ver I got to stick after a full clean wipe of the phone. I am working on updating to the new ver soon. The ver is a very stable ver. It works great so enjoy it.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] mikera67:
Works great! Went to daughters high school softball game in the rain, Sat in the car watching and working on getting the right sound in the car, need to find a few ir files to test
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] -Michael_:
Could someone try using android beam to beam a file TO their turbo on this image, when I try, the gallery just opens, not giving me a "incoming beam" message, or any message. I want to be sure its just a me issue with gallery.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
Works with turbo to turbo on 1.5.2a. Did you try to shut beam of and back on ? Was your flash of the img clean or did you just flash without wiping anything from recovery ?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] -Michael_:
Clean flash of 1.5.2a

I'll try turning beam off/on

This is also turbo to turbo both on 1.5.2a (with wipe afterwards) without v4a (yet :) ).

---------- Post added at 04:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:28 PM ----------

Turned beam off on both phones, rebooted both phones and turned beam/nfc back on, same. Its soemthing to do with gallery as it launches immediately, going to wipe gallery cache. And tinker with it a bit more. Not a big deal, just annoying.

---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 PM ----------

Just successfully beamed a URL from chrome, map location from maps and a youtube link. All worked as expected, just the damn gallery malfunction. Cleared cache and defaults on gallery. No joy.

Again no big deal as i can use bluetooth instead. Just pointing out an oddity in case someone else has discovered it too.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
I have to look into it I am running 2 test builds on my phones but still 1.5.2 base and none of that stuff has been tuched in anyway when it comes to this stuff.

If you did not do this already and can you go clean the app data for just gallery.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] -Michael_:
No worries sir, I'm going to mess with gallery tonight/tomorrow and see if i can get it figured out. I'm sure its a gallery issue. Just wanted to bring a heads up in case someone else has seen it too.

Thanks again for the IMG's

It is there but you have tov flash 1.5.2.a with v4a...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] newskate9:
hmm, same problem. I cleared app data - no good. I cleared cache - no good. I removed updates to google search - no good. I stopped all services on google set up - no good.

When I say "ok google" [ actually, i have it set up to answer to "talk to me, Goose" a la Top Gun ] - the blue moto screen pops up for a split second, then disappears.

Anything else to try?

Yes, that is what I did. << Computerfreek274_Turbo_NoBloatPlusV4A_AdBlock1.5.2a.img >>
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
I can not try and even help you without you telling me what ver you are on and if you did a wipe in recovery after you flashed. Please give me ver like "1.5.2.a with v4a and ad blocking"
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] newskate9:
Sorry about that. I'm on the latest 1.5.a, with adblock ON, and VIPER ON. After flashing, I did NOT go into recovery and wipe. BUT, I did just now and that did not make it work. I still get the blue moto screen for an instant, then back to home screen. I can repeat this right away, and same thing happens.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
Mine is still working fine but my phones have had there /data wiped.

So go wipe google play service, google search, then do not restart them reboot right after that.

I like to help you more but I am out right now on a walk with the kids and dinner. So I will check into it more later.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] PerCompLLC:
My issue is that I don't even have the V4A control panel to launch. It isn't in my app drawer, and it isn't in my /system/app. Not sure where the apk is...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] mikera67:
Are you sure you downloaded the version with v4a? V4a should already be in your app list
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] PerCompLLC:
Pretty sure that I'm an idiot... I think I might have gotten images confused and reflashed the older image. I'm reflashing now and I'm certain that I am using the right one. Oops! We're all human, right? :D
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] mikera67:
No problem, we all have been there
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] PerCompLLC:
Yup... It was all user error. Works now! Thanks all!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
OK I just tested it on my sons phone and the only thing I can think is it something with the v4a. If wiping and resetting the moto software and google not working. Just use google now without the moto software and I will look into it maybe the new ver of v4a fixes it. As that is what I have runing that's why I do not get the blue moto screen .
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] diabl0w:
im having the same moto voice exiting immediately after launch problem with 1.5.2 viper... cleared cache in recovery immedoately after flash.. tried clearing data and cache of moto app and moto voice app... nothing. getting logcat errors involving audio monitor
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] diabl0w:
sorry for doublr post
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Android Development] computerfreek274:
Thank you. It is the v4a doing it. I will see if I can fix the audio profiles. So for not just pick what matters more to you moto voice or v4a. I will be working on it soon.
