[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etnpnys:
I didn't know that there were difficulties with 5.1.1. I used Wugfresh's tool to install 5.1.1 with the "no wipe" option and I had 5.1.1 just fine - but can't figure out how to get root back!! And I need root to expand the storage!! Right now I have a fresh, clean, 5.1.1 install on my NP.

I tried Wugfresh's tool, I sure wish it told me that it didn't work with the firmware that it had already detected!!

I also tried the Chainfire root.img that I used back on 5.0 and it seems to work until I tell SuperSU to update the binaries. At that point it basically times out and asks me to reboot.

What next?! Wait for Wugfresh? Is there another way to root?

I flashed the cm recovery from dhacker and used it to flash the newest beta of supersu. After that the app didn't show up until I installed it from the store but now it works fine

Why don't you locate the save data in es file explorer and copy it to the cloud. Reimage nexus player and set up es file explorer, cloud and copy the saved data back to where you stored it.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] king_dani:
would anyone be so kind to point me to one of the guides on how to use factory image/OTA to update from 5.0 rooted to 5.1.1? I don't care about keeping my settings, and I don't care about root. just want the latest and greatest.

thanks in advance
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
The Nexus Player is a Nexus device, and you can always upgrade to the latest version by using the factory images found here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images. The procedure to flash a factory image on any Nexus device has not changed since the Nexus One was released, so you can look at any of the guides for Nexus devices.

Essentially it boils down to this: The factory image contains a few files in an archive format. There are a few images within that you need: bootloader (I can't remember what the name of the file is but it's something like xxxxbootloaderxxx.img), system.img, boot.img, recovery.img). Extract those images from within the archive and flash them. You do this by booting into the bootloader, opening a command prompt in the same folder that you downloaded the image files) on your PC and type the following commands:

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot format cache

If you also want to start fresh and wipe all your data, execute the following command: fastboot format userdata

Then execute: fastboot reboot

Done.

Notes:

1) You need to extract these files in the same directory as where you downloaded the images before proceeding.

2) if you are using Windows, you need to install the the driver (found here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html)

3) The procedure above assumes your bootloader is unlocked. If not, you will need to unlock it (using: fastboot oem unlock) and it will wipe all your data.

Ok - whew! I know that I went through the process but I couldn't be 100% sure because I have tried so many things to get expanded storage working to no avail that I've kinda given up for the time being...
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toneman07:
It's a nexus - use custom recovery to flash supersu and your rooted.... Done :D
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etnpnys:
Not necessarily... You still need a modified boot.img to get the whole thing working...

Hello everyone!

Recently I rooted my phone and begun to tweak it. So I decided to integrate all updated system app to system partition . After that the camera wasnt working so I restored a nandroid backup. Everything was good until I tried to open the SMS app. It crashed imidiately. I wiped its data, cache and dalvik but it didn't work. Then using root explorer I navigated to priv - apps and see if was anything wrong with the permisions. Everything was ok so i decided to delete the odex File and reboot. But after the reboot the SMS app was missing although the APK was still there. I am on stock kitkat locked bootloader. Any help please?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DorianX:
Delete .odex files without deodex? You need to deodex first, also some apps need libs... You need to extract it from apk and copy to "system/lib"

That is bad...

I have see it before, and noting works :(

The last time the guy try to turn on his phone every day, one day he get it...

But from the process that he describe the phone just stuck like yours and it need to completed empty the battery or unplugged it.

If open the phone is not a option, is need to let the phone that way and every day, he try this:

Plug in the charger, after 2 minutes he try turn it on by holding the power button for 2 min.

after that no success, he unplugged the charger and, try the next day.

And after 2 - 3 days he turn it on... i don't remember if was only 2 min maybe try 5 min on charger.

Is very slow and not completed a solution because it may not work, but for now is the only option after what you tell me.

don't leave the charger on for more then 5 min if is really need to empty your battery will take time and every charge minute will take longer.

:good:
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lucariel:
Is there a link to that "solution"?

I think its really strange i mean everything i have read about this topic of people having the same issue, it happened when their battery hit the 0%, and most of them got a solution, but mine was fully charged.

Im scared right now, the phone has...1 month, 2 at the most.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fgl27:
no link i read too many thing, i remember it but don't have the link. and it was in Portuguese. just search unplug the battery of moto g and moto g stuck black screen thing like that. that is a thing that happens a lot not just to you. with other devices too that have a non removable battery.

the guy that had that problem was too with charged battery, that is the way i answer this tread.

Ofcourse changed to 4mb pagepool all i can saw is this rom is fast!! I'll post some screen shots up later for you but here is the download link.

_.:Kept:._

Bubble Breaker / Solitare

RegEdit

Reset PPC

Suspend PPC

Task Manager

TM Minimized

ActiveSync

Calculator / Camera / Calender / Contacts / Notes / Tasks / Etc

File Explorer

HTC Voice Recorder

Internet Sharing

MIDLet Manager

Pictures and Videos

Steaming Media

Windows Media

Zip

Office Mobile - Excel / OneNote / Powerpoint / Word

Cleartype Tuner

_.:Removed:._

Live Messenger

Remote Desktop

SAPSettings

SIM Manager

Windows Live

BTW It looks like JJ might release a light version himself at some point, but read up on the 4winmobile forum for that.

Incredible big storage! Could you make a rom as lite as you can, for example:

no Bubble Breaker / Solitare, RegEdit, Task Manager,Calculator ,File Explorer, HTC Voice Recorder,Internet Sharing, Pictures and Videos, Search, Steaming Media ,Windows Media, Zip, Office Mobile - Excel / OneNote / Powerpoint / Word, and ( Live Messenger, Remote Desktop, SAPSettings, SIM Manager and Windows Live).

We can choose ourselves other sharewares or freewares or option of installers of these apps whatever we like to use.

Hi and thanks for your reply.

That's what I used to unhide it but it is still invisible.

Bear in mind that I flashed my device somethink like 10 times yesterday trying out the different roms that have appeared in the scene, and decided to use this one (maybe this makes a difference?).

*edit*

I reapplied the CAB and soft-reset, still ext_rom invisible in file explorer, or as an "destination" folder during installation of software.

I then used pimp my black 0.2, to HIDE it, soft-reset, then again used pimp my black to UNLOCK it and soft-reset. Still ext_rom invisible....

I didnt check this when I flashed with the normal black 3.5 so I can't say whether it is a "feature" of this "lite" version or a black "feature" in general.

Any help anyone?

Thanks and congrats on what seems to be an excellent rom :)

you cannot unlock using registry hack because yours is not SuperCID.

My best effort is 61.03MB free storage, even removed Media Player, and UPXed some stuff as well!

64.21MB - Total / 3.37MB - In Use... which I knew what that in use was.

Interesting to see that after UPXing the system still runs fast and stable.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] austinsnyc:
why such little free Ram on boot looks to me like something is messed up. that would be like having a 12MB pagepool with a 4MB you should have a total of 50.?? and 31.?? free on the first boot. compressing the exe's has been tested lots in the past and works fine but when you start compressing the dll's they get ****ed up. that might be your issue

Yes file explorer was taken out for space saving. I dont know about you guys but i always have around 30MB of program memory and 63MB of program storage after install my apps I have 55.64MB of program storage.

I would say the first one to download is the best one for normal users since it still has all the important apps like file explorer and caculator lol.. the second was just a test rom as i stated to see how much program storage i could get. I just made one with Farias clean rom and now have 67.04MB of program storage!!!!!! and i set the page pool to 2MB so i have 52.69 of program memory with 32MB free
