[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] pigeon:
Hi all,

I'm trying to create my own system.img for the Nexus 7 2013 Wifi from the stock system.img from https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images 5.0.2 LRX22G. Basically I did it the common way using the android repack tools http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2600364 and I'm also using branch android-5.0.2_r1 from the git repo.

I'm flashing with the simple:

fastboot flash system mysystem.img

The problem I'm having is, even with an unmodified tree from system.img, the image I created always get the device stuck at the boot Google logo screen. If I flash the original system.img, then it is fine, so I think my flashing part is working.

The command line I used to create the image is:

./mkuser.img.sh -s /path/to/loop_mounted_system/ mysystem.img ext4 system 880803840

which will run:

make_ext4fs -s -T -1 -l 880803840 -a system mysystem.img /path/to/loop_mounted_system/

Has anyone here actually managed to create a working system.img?

Any suggestions would be much appreciated, thanks!

UPDATE: Using ext2simg instead of mkuserimg.sh/make_ext4fs fixes the problem!

Hi Chamelion any possibility to put a link for this rom, in another friendly site like megaupload, I also don't like rapidshare at all. Thanks

So far great ROM..

Thanks for not including cyberon vc it makes it much easier to get ms vc going.

Everything else seems to work just fine, but voice dialling ain't working (Error opening the short cut). This same happened with lvsw's version (and with Black 3.0).

How do I fix this?

Never mind, just installed Cyberion Voice Dialer.cab

I found another problem, that I never had before :eek: When I change anything via control panel Today, then nothing really happend, only after SR.This is odd, because if I want to use SPB products, then I must SR device each time, I make any changes. Till now I did not read or search on forum about this problem (or if somebody actually have same problem as I), I going to flash device again only if problem did not dissapear, then I start looking for answers.

PS: with original LVSW last version this problem was not. :D

/update\

now I find some posts about this prob here till now, no sollution.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] MrDSL:
For those of you who want ms vc over headset.

Its probably best to not have the headset paired so unpair it and just add it after all the steps.

1.) Install MS VC 1.6

2.) Install attached .cab

3.) In programs launch BT Voice Command Config

4.) Check enable

5.) Click save

6.) Click Exit

7.) Turn off phone

8.) Turn on phone

9.) Pair bt headset

I take no credit for this program it was done by XCSdM and later modified by ZaJules..

This works perfect for me no other tricks or reg edits zilch, nada, nothing. You might want to set voice command to button 5 though.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kipe:
Is the x-button works like it should with elf version? I mean does the exclusive click working & what build is in this ROM version? thanks in advance
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] sinmae:
today not refreshing only after SR

For those who have problem with Today settings, this is reply and solution from LegolasTheElf copied from his forum - thank you

"It's looking like that today screen issue is caused by the X-Button. To remove it, go to the Remove Programs settings applet and remove it. Because of the way this ROM is built, you can remove my additions I'm actually going to be building my ROM's in a different way than anyone else--by using mostly CABs to do the customization rather than imbedding into the ROM itself. IMHO, this is a better design as it allows people to customize their device, and reclaim storage space if they don't like the items I've included in the ROM "

Can I make the Windows Live Search bar for "Transparency" background from today screen?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] kipe:
u can't ..my way of doing it is to uninstall the apps, go to settings/remove programs ..and then install the one here http://rapidshare.com/files/32749891/WLM.rar.html

or another way, is to use sleuth developers variation of this LVSW ROM.. (it is pre-installed with the transparent windows live search bar)

I just got the galaxy s6 two days ago and I am already having wifi issues. The phone tells me that the signal is very strong but it cannot load pages and tabs keep crashing. I have to turn off wifi and then turn it back on multiple times to fix the issue. After about 15 minutes it goes right back and continues with the same issue. I know this is not a modem or router issue because all of my other devices are connected and have no issues of loading anything work perfect. Just posting to see if anybody else has this same issue. Please keep me informed if you have found a fix. Thank you!

[General Questions and Answers] AB__CD:
Hi, I'm currently using the Galaxy S4 i9500 and I'm looking to change to new phone in less than a week. I'm currently deciding between the Nexus 6 and Galaxy S6 (normal, not edge) and while I like the stock build of Android, bigger screen, the promise of two years worth of consistent software updates and you know, no Samsung bloatware, the S6 offers me a much better camera and also a more pocketable size. Also, glass trumps plastic on the back and Samsung after-service can easily be found in my country, while Motorola is basically non-existent. (I'm not even sure there is one, I'm going abroad to buy it, but in my two years with the S4 I've never had to service it anyway).

You're probably saying the S6 is a clear winner, but there's one thing that makes me hesitant - my poor experience with the S4. In particular, lagginess, poor delivery of software updates and battery life. The S4 has just downright awful battery life (2:30 SOT, 8-9h overall) and lags a lot too. While I'm quite sure that lagginess has been fixed (I got to play around with a demo unit which was butter smooth), I'm still hesitant on software update speed and battery life. The fact that the battery can't be swapped out means that the battery life, if it's not good at first, will only continue to fall. GSMArena shows a higher rating on the S6, but I've heard more positive things about the N6 battery, and Pocketnow reports only 2.3h of SOT on the S6.

[General Questions and Answers] burduli:
I think you should buy Nexus 6. Why? Reason is simple. Why are you on XDA? Because you are interested in Android stuff, developing, etc. Nexus 6 have amazingly big support! That means, that you'll get updates first. Custom ROMs will release on your device more often. So, the final choice is on you, but if I were you, I would buy Nexus 6 (It's my dream smartphone right now).
[General Questions and Answers] AB__CD:
I don't really tinker much with custom ROMs, so it's not a high priority. I'd like to ask if the S6 has multiple user accounts though

My grand 2 G7102 took about 2and a half hour to full charge. but nowadays it takes more than 5 hours. i tried everything like unrooting , factory reset ect. but no luck. is this battery problem or motherboard problem? i have a plan to use a 2Amp charger. will it help me? any one had this problem? did you fix? please help.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cookiepuppy:
Hi

Are you on stock rom or custom rom?

If on custom it maybe some kernel issue.

If on stock rom then:

First check your charger, try another one see if there is a change on your device Or check your charger on another device.

Next how old is your battery? I guess about a year old. If all seems fine you can check the mini usb connector in the device, msybe its gone bad or too much dirt.

If all this didnt help much,then its time to service center
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ajeeva:
hi..thanks for your reply. i am on stock rom. i did reflash my stock rom some times but no luck.

my charger and data cable are good. i tried various chargers and cables but the result was same.

yeah my battery is old nearly 1 year. i am also doubt on battery but i dont know any methods to check it. i have not any spare batteries also. my battery keeps power as normal. its not over heating or critical power down. the problem is slow charging only. do you know any methods to test the battery using any tools like multi meter?
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cookiepuppy:
Sorry that i cannot help any further.

And maybe a multi meter woukd help help to check battery.

But you may consider checking the device usb connector itself.

Hi,

I have a colleague who has purchased a UT6700 from Embarq Wireless

(it's embarq, no sprint branding)

he's having trouble sending email, and since I'm a computer geek :)

he asked me to help...

he can receive (pop) from his mail server, but cannot send.

to me this sounds like an SMTP issue, he's off the network (his phone) and the server will not let him relay mail through the outside connection.

So, I call Embarq, to ask them for either the fqdn or ip address of the smtp server on their network...

The wireless support tech (not the tier 1 tech) said that he did not have that information, and even if he did, he could not give it out!

I've found really usefull info on this forum before...

can anyone here provide me with the FQDN or the IP address of the Embarq SMTP server for their wireless customers.

BTW, we're in the west coast (vegas to be exact) in case that does make a difference or not.

any help appreciated

thanks!

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goabunny:
I just ordered a part with frame and I am wondering if anyone have replaced and would like to share the experience in doing so. Any suggestions or tips before I start installing the part my self.

I found couple of good videos on YouTube how to install this part.

I really would like to use N5 and have a pure stock experience.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hevangel:
I just replaced my Nesux 5 screen yesterday, following this [YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPuCmfhzgbg[/YOUTUBE] instruction. The youtube is 30 minutes long and it took me 3 hours to finish the job.

One thing to keep in mind, you need a very good screw driver. One of the screws of the CPU board has metal sockets (instead of just plastic like the other screws), the top middle screw. My cheap screw driver comes with the screen+frame module stripped the screw head, so that screw is stcuk in the socket and can't be taken out. At the end, I used a x-acto knife cut out the plastic around the screw to remove the CPU board cover.

You also may want to get a replacement battery. It's easy to damage the battery when you take it out. (My battery is dying, so I have to change it anyways)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goabunny:
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience. I ordered the LCD digitizer with the frame on eBay. It'd coming with some tool kit. So not sure if it has necessary screw driver you are suggesting.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JonesL:
Never completely stripped it down but I hear it's easy enough. I was able to take the PCB, Battery out with ease.

https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Nexus_5

However be careful with the cables that run down the side of the phone (both sides) they are weak, so remove them at the socket instead of yanking the cable off http://cdn.makeuseof.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/wifi-cable-and-blue-tape.jpg?410b2a those little buggers, make sure you don't get them trapped either.

Battery is easy, don't use a screwdriver to pull off the tab at the top, otherwise it'll spark. Use something made of plastic.

[LG G Flex 2] PRao700:
my sprint g flex 2 just took a major dive. it keeps going to a black screen and then turning back on to the home screen, every few seconds. tried doing a factory reset and no help. think the update bricked it. I rooted it using the new method and it worked fine. no idea what the hell happened after last night lol

is there a way to go back to the stock firmware as if it just came out of the box?
[LG G Flex 2] isildursheir:
Not as of right now. As far as I have seen, there have been no stock firmware dumps from the Sprint version of the G Flex 2. Attempts to restore it back to factory settings have ended up in bootlooping phones. The only resolution I've seen so far is unfortunately getting Sprint to exchange the phone. Did you try installing the OTA after root, or did you root after the OTA?
[LG G Flex 2] PRao700:
Root then OTA. I work for Sprint so they made me the advocate of that phone. Not a huge fan of it so far. even before all this mess, the phone was lagging and getting way too hot.
[LG G Flex 2] _-Jay-_:
ZV5 update fixes a lot of the lag issues and greatly improves battery life. Phone still gets warm to the touch. I don't think that can be fixed via software update though.
[LG G Flex 2] Stank0:
HOW???
[LG G Flex 2] PRao700:
No clue Stank. Im just gonna hold out until I can get the TOT for the Sprint version. Hoping I can put it back to stock firmware and that will solve it.

What I meant was, so far everyone who tried the OTA update after root, they failed.

[LG G Flex 2] shuka325:
Unfortunately this phone seems crippled in many ways.... Getting frustrated with all the issues.
[LG G Flex 2] Stank0:
The only issue I really have with this phone is lack of patched native hotspot ;)

Other than that, the slight lag I'm experiencing here and there I can live with. No other issues for me and I consider it to be the best designed phone on the market except for Sharp Aquos, which is unfortunately too small and has mediocre components.

Does anyone have ubuntu touch running on the 2012 N7?

Yes, i know Canonical dropped support for the 2012 N7. I'm wondering if someone's ported it anyway, and if its working?

I have spent quite a chunk of time googling this, and all i've been able to find is the preview releases.

I;m no stranger to linux, or android flashing, so it doesnt matter to me if it's a procedure that's not for the faint of heart.

Canonical only seems to release it using their ubuntu-device-flash utility, which is ubuntu only. Elitists. I've got Fedora, Win7, and MacOSx at my disposal, i'd rather not have to install ubuntu somewhere too. Though I guess I could make this work on a live usb. I'm basically looking for two things. 1. manual flash instructions. 2. An image that might work with the N7.

Sorry if this has been asked to death, apparently the search isn't working (gives me a database error).

Thanks.
