Hallo there everybody!

I've recently bought a Lenovo A396 (Spreadtrum SC8830A) Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread.

I've rooted it, installed lync2SD, removed bloatware, changed launcher to Hola.

I'm pretty happy with this little guy but I'm still missing a custom recovery...

I've follow the tips on this page:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2527663

Installed all the recoveries available on the page via Mobileuncle MTK Tools but still no joy...

Is there any chance you can help me finding a custom recovery that would work on my lenovo A396 (Spreadtrum SC8830A)?

Thank you very much in advance!

I wish you all a nice day!

Tittilvero.

Bought my htc one m7 (sense 5.0) on amazon. It is a At&t unlocked phone which I'm using on T-mobile. I heard that AT&T rolled out lollipop OTA updates. However, I get a message "No update is available for your device." I'm attaching screen shots for the details. I'm really looking forward to updating to Lollipop. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure why it does this or how to fix/change it, but I'm hoping maybe somebody here can provide me with some help. The notifications in the drawer are all in white boxes. I'm providing a picture to help illustrate what I mean. I'm rooted, twrp, running JasmineROM 6.0 unmodified. I have tried using tweaksbox but still cannot figure out how to change this. Thanks in advance for any help.
[Verizon LG G3] RMarkwald:
That's how it is on Lollipop. Otherwise you'd need to theme the background color and text color for the status bar pull-down area in SystemUI.

Is there a way to network/Sim unlock the Samsung galaxy tab 4 8.0 on 4.4.2 kit Kat at&t. I was just curious because at&t claims to have never had my device in their records so I can't request and unlock code and I need to use it on on other carrier. Also I AM ROOTED

I am considering buying this phone on Orange in the UK with the main use of Web browsing on the go.

Does anyone know if;

HSDPA coverage is good on orange UK?

What kind of speeds are available?

Also I read a while ago that Orange were due to bring out unlimited data taffifs (like t-mobile web and walk) for £8 a month. I cant find it anywhere on Oranges website does it exhist?

I want a phone with HSDPA and GPS so should I get this or wait for the very cool looking HTC Wings?
[P3600 General] pinkllama:
check out orange's web site for coverage. max speeds are approx 1.5mbit/s.

the £8 a month plan(and others) are being released in june.

So Like Many of You I upgraded from the Note 4, and the gear vr 1. I was hoping they would atleast have a date out for the vr 2 but it doesnt seem to be the case. So now im looking for sometype of vr function to hold me out in the mean time before i decide on a occulus or some alternative. anyway to my question , what is the best cardboard headset for the s6 edge? and will the curve screen mess up the vr effect?
[Google Cardboard] nick.XIII:
I've got the kit from dodocase.com, it's essentially the cardboard kit. It works pretty well imho, the curved edges aren't noticeable, I think they're slightly outside of the field of view.
[Google Cardboard] mrmenace:
well it seems the Vr 2 launch is imminent the gods have heard my prayers :D pre orders start tommarow!
[Google Cardboard] Slaughter59:
A bit expensive for what it is imao, it's just a phone holder (pretty sexy I know). Anyway I'm pretty interested on your feedback w/ this one! Maybe someday it'll cost half the price and start to be interesting for me :)
[Google Cardboard] mrmenace:
well based on my experience with the Gear Vr for My note 4 , i have high hopes for the Vr 2
[Google Cardboard] Slaughter59:
What about VR apps? Most users complain about a poor app store...

Istill have great hopes on this VR2, since S6 is gonna be a great succes, the amount of potential users is superior, so dev will gain interest on that market.

[Google Cardboard] mrmenace:
$250 !? this makes me wish the vr 1 wasnt so popular why the price bump up? is a added fan really worth $250 bucks?
[Google Cardboard] Lil B Rules All:
I felt the same way... But it's supposed to be lighter, have the fan and the charging port. And it's supposed to be more comfortable.

I'm really on the fence lol
[Google Cardboard] mrmenace:
indeed, i was a day 1 buyer of the Vr 1 but it looks like i might have to pick this one up on EBAY lol
[Google Cardboard] Lil B Rules All:
Over in the VR headset thread there is a guy that said that he has the Oculous headset right now and said the the samsung VR is going to be well worth the money. This pushes me more towards buying it in may haha

[Google Cardboard] FutureBSD:
I owned a Note 4 with a Gear VR as well. Saw some great potential in it but 99% of the available content is crap. That's an area where the Oculus Rift will definitely be the better option. As long as there is no similar content for the Gear VR I'm holding my money back.

How to uninstall?
[Sony Xperia M2] Dzepar:
Flash it in recovery.

Xperia M2 D2303 on K.K. 4.4.4
[Sony Xperia M2] Miche1asso:
/etc/init.d support is already enabled in Xperia phones rooted with rootkitXperia (and I suppose the other rooting methods as well). The rootkit enables it because it is needed to disable the RIC at boot time. Also SuperSU uses it.

It's better to specify it because it may not be safe to run twice some init.d scripts.
[Sony Xperia M2] Dzepar:
^^^ I got that second time I flashed these tweaks. :D

Thanks

Xperia M2 D2303 on K.K. 4.4.4
[Sony Xperia M2] Lovenish Singh Panwar:
Sometimes it dont.. I have faced that problem and probably others too.. So i just quoted the way.. I guess its not creating any problem right..??
[Sony Xperia M2] Lovenish Singh Panwar:
:D:cool:
[Sony Xperia M2] Miche1asso:
I know, it's confusing because each rooting method does it on its own way.

Let's say that it would be better to advise to check if /etc/init.d is already running before installing a second script which runs it. We never know what one is going to put in /etc/init.d , and some poorly made additional scripts are not made to be run twice. Also it keeps the system cleaner.
[Sony Xperia M2] Lovenish Singh Panwar:
Ok.. Quoted it in the OP.. :D

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sruba209:
my phone was rooted and had cwm recovery. The OTA failed twice . Then I unrooted the phone and did a wipe. After that, I was able to install lollipop
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wiltron:
OTA will always fail when you're rooted, as signature checks will fail. You need to flash a pre-rooted 157 after wiping system and caches (not data).

Install a non-rooted, fresh copy of 157. Close Sony Updater tool(s).

Flash the 108 kernel using Flashtool. Close Flashtool.

Root using XperiaRoot. Close XperiaRoot.

Flash the 157 kernel using Flashtool. Close Flashtool.

Install XZDR Dual Recovery, and use TWRP from now on. CWM is old and should be killed with fire.

Send me $50 and a large pepperoni pizza.

Files are available here.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yoorie016:
are you already in the Lollipop? or rather, have you installed lollipop and you want to root it?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wascalwabbit:
I was playing around with some ROMs yesterday, since i was not happy with CM11 anymore. after installing a couple of different ROMs i decided to stick with slimkat. so i made a nandriod of slimkat and tried to go back to CM11 to get my apps all figured out for the switch. This is where the trouble started. when trying to restore CM11 I would get to "writing data" and at some point (always a different percentage) the phone would crash and reboot and get stuck in a boot loop. it would then do the same thing when trying to restore the slim ROM, always crashing before the restore finished. I always wiped data/sys/cache, i tried to fix permissions, install different version of twrp (2.6.x.x vs 2.8.6.0). I've since restored the phone back to factory and installed twrp again. I'm at my wits end as to what the problem could be. one thing that's odd is I get a splash screen before the twrp splash which still shows the little cyanogenmod guy at the bottom, even though there should be no remnants of CM on my s3 at this point.

I have slimkat installed at the moment and it's running fine. i'd still like to boot back into my old CM11. if i can't it's no tragic loss.

I will be travelling and i wont have access to odin for a little while, so i'm less inclined to go breaking things till i get back home. I thought maybe someone here has run into this or knows how to fix this.

Thanks for the help

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dawgdoc:
Was the original CM11 nandroid made with the same recovery make and version which would not install it? I am pretty sure TWRP will not install a CWM or Philz nandroid. I don't know if there are issues installing a 2.6.x.x TWRP nandroid with the 2.8.x.x version of TWRP.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wascalwabbit:
Thanks for you're reply. The backup was made with twrp, I'm not sure which version it was, so I downgraded to see if it would help, then I installed the latest version again. There was no difference in the results no matter the twpr version. Twrp nandroids are in fact incompatible with CWM, not sure about philz
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dawgdoc:
Since Philz was originally based on CWM I wouldn't expect it to work with TWRP nandroids either.

Have you tried installing only specific partitions of the nandroid, such as the /data/data partition where the user installed apps are stored. As opposed to restoring the entire nandroid. I have heard mention of this, but in your case it may be problematic since your nandroid is of CM11 and the ROM you are running is SlimKat.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] wascalwabbit:
Oh that's a great idea, thanks, that may work. I i'll just flash CM and then restore data. I'm literally heading into the jungle right now, so in not sure if I'll be able to try this out for few days, but I will as soon as I get a chance.

Thanks for tour help
