[TouchPad General] BuffMcBigHuge:
So I had quite the experience upgrading to lollipop.

Started with:

CM11 4.4.4 Nightly

600mb system

Philz Touch

1) I flashed Flintman TWRP within Philz Touch 6.0.4.9.

2) Downloaded Milaq's CM12 and PA Gapps 5.0.2. Pico.

3) Booted into TWRP, and created a backup.

4) Ran a factory reset in TWRP, and attempted to flash CM12. I had no idea where the /Downloads/ folder was, and I ended up finding it by going to /Internal Storage/data/media/0/Downloads

5) Encountered an error in mounting system, nothing was flashing.

6) Booted the touchpad into Web OS Recovery, and ran TPToolbox. An error was detected in the system partition, and 'Repair Partition' failed.

7) I then booted into WebOS and ran Preware 'Tailor'. Tailor also failed on 'Check Filesystem'. I then proceeded to delete the Android system partition. I never figured out why my system became corrupted.

8) I removed 400 mb from Android Data, and created Android System with 1000mb.

9) I booted back into TWRP, and successfully flashed CM12, and gapps.

10) After booting, I then proceeded to download Xposed for lollipop. I activated root in developer settings,.

11) I booted in to TWRP, and flashed Xposed, and rebooted the tablet.

12) All subsequent apps resulted in a -504 error when installing. It was discovered that Xposed was the culprit.

13) I then reflashed cm12, without xposed.

14) I downloaded Trickster MOD and set my CPU to 1782 Mhz and performance governor.

15) I experienced odd slowdowns and crashes when any audio played (include keyboard taps). I then proceeded to flash Viper4Android. I installed the driver, rebooted, and now my Touchpad audio sounds great! Make sure to select the best audio quality, and play with the Viper settings!

I now have a blazingly fast lollipop tablet. I tried 5.1.1, but I find it too unstable for daily use. The next step is to figure out how to get Xposed working.

Thanks to the devs for the hard work in development!
[TouchPad General] EricBlade:
fwiw, all 4.4.4 and 5.x roms that I have tried excepting the Evervolv 5.0.2 last nightly have problems with the sound locking up the system, unless you turn off "OK Google" detection completely.
[TouchPad General] rfoster2009:
I had similar issues with the exception of Evervolv. Their 5.1.1 is even pretty solid now at this point; they're setting their sights on Marshmallow next!
[TouchPad General] EricBlade:
I still gget that lockup in 511.. hoping 6 kills the weird bugs ;)
[TouchPad General] deafasheck:
Interesting yet annoying

I have been hving fun running Milaq 4.4 and i seen this post but Milaq's link and the link to the gapps and Exposed all are well i have no Idea how to download from those sites. IE can't find a link, only more info into what they are. can you check this out? repost if needed , thanks for sharing.. I hope i can get these files downloaded...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sansari123:
I downloaded the source from opensource.samsung.com, and seem to be able to get a zImage. But I am not sure if I am doing everything correctly. Here have a couple of questions as follows:

Question 1- I don't see a system.img and / or a ramdisk in .../out/target/product/generic/ folder. Shouldn't I see a system.img and or a ramdisk.img there? I know I can get a ramdisk from a stock firmware. I like to know why I see some tutorials where the person has their own ram disk generated. Further is initramfs and ramdisk.img the same file? I am sure I'll find this out very soon, but if you can clear it up for me, I would certainly appreciate it.

Question 2- Also when I issue the command:

make VARIANT_DEFCONFIG=msm8974_sec_hlte_spr_defconfig msm8974_sec_defconfig SELINUX_DEFCONFIG=selinux_defconfig modules

I get the following error ( Error 1) :

I just dread going through make config so I use this command:

make VARIANT_DEFCONFIG=msm8974_sec_hlte_spr_defconfig msm8974_sec_defconfig SELINUX_DEFCONFIG=selinux_defconfig menuconfig

But it seems like the changes I make are not saved since I get the same error l labeled as error 1 above. I am sure I saved my config when I exit the menuconfig option. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong. Is there some way to quickly activate the loadable modules option?

First, I am sorry if I am creating this thread in the wrong forum.

I just got my Rogers branded HTC TyTN!!!! The first thing I would like to do is upgrade to WM6. I flashed my Moto V3, but that has been my only experience modding a phone to date. I realize the Rom Archive has been taken down, but I am still hoping to get help here.

I have a friend who bought a Cingular 8525 off eBay, and he used this software update obtained direct from HTC. Can I use this?

http://www.america.htc.com/support/8525/software-downloads.html

I would rather use an unbranded ROM if opossible, but I haven't had much luck hunting them down on public torrent trackers, or any other p2p programs.

I know I am a relative newb, so I hope you guys can be patiant with me.

Thanks in advance to all those who help! :)

SEARCH THE FORUM!!!!!!!! My GOD WASTE OF SPACE!!!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Madcap180:
I wouldnt suggest using an official update not made for your particular device.. you would be better off finding a custom rom that works with ur TyTn.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] malibublue:
Do you feel more important now asshole?

I lead with an apology.

I spent all night searching the forums, and didn't find what I'm looking for.

If you really want to help, link me to a relevant thread.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] mrvanx:
ok first off, swearing isnt going to help you in this thread sir.

Secondly I suggest taking a look at 'The Hermes Guide', by reading the announcement on the top of EVERY hermes forum (read this before posting) you would have found the thread about my guides, also you would have found all the info you need in the wiki.

By starting a new thread you have shown us you didnt follow these small steps and have tried to jump in 'at the deep end'. These devices are worth ALOT of money so you REALLY do need to read,read and read some more before following the path you wish to take. Its a likely situation that if you dont quite understand everything you will join the MANY MANY members who have a bricked device in THIS THREAD (alot of which now have very pricey paperweights).

Both yourself and I do not wish this to happen so please take some time to read through the wiki, threads and guides and your device should be working as you want it to in no time. ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] malibublue:
Thanks for your response.

For what it's worth, I did spend a signifigant amount of time in the wiki, and didn't find what I was looking for. I will look again this evening.

I apologise for swearing, but I really can't stand these guys who wait for the first opportunity to post a "search function" response with the typical condecending attitude.

Likewise, I'm sure they can't stand me.

Thanks again for your assistance.

You're actually getting some excellent advice here:

Madcap180: I wouldnt suggest using an official update not made for your particular device.. you would be better off finding a custom rom that works with ur TyTn.

austinsnyc: SEARCH THE FORUM

With that said, I'd strongly advise you to first upgrade to your vendor's (Rogers) latest wm5 rom & get to know the device under those conditions. When you do upgrade to wm6, this wm5 Rogers knowledge/experience will help you. You'll have an idea of what your Tytn can do. remember, your Tytn is NOT a Cingular 8525. Roms for Tytn are different from 8525 in a few ways, but identical in many.

HTC will release an official wm6 rom in near future. Wait for that. It's my understanding that Rogers has not announced the Rogers wm6 upgrade will be available for their branded Tytn. It may happen..it may not. Meanwhile, a customized HTC Tytn wm6 from this forum will eventually be a great choice. However, cut your teeth on the Rogers wm5 latest & HTC wm6 when it arives. What you do after that will mean so much more.

OK, I have 1 question I cant find the answer to anywhere.

I have flashed HardSPL, then I launched the installer as per the instructions, then clicked Autodetect

This is when I get an error

Is this normal? I cant find this anywhere!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Johnston411:
Caution recommended

If youve done everything explained in this guide "http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/" and you get that error do as it says. Worked for me, Still jumping in at the deep end is a bad idea. I would ask whats lacking from your current rom before upgrading o something you may not need.

(i'm guessing one of the roms on that link is what you're after)

Perfect Examples

MalibuBlue's thread seems to me a perfect example of what some of the Senior Members have long been advocating, that is, that if you don't like a question or feel it stupid, then ignore it--there's no requirement that one send negative/flaming replies. MalibuBlue could have done his homework better; Austinsync could have ignored his question (and that early question submitted from noobie austinsync was GREAT example of what it's like to be a noob!!); however, calmer heads prevailed, the best advice was given, Malibublue figured things out and is now less of a noob and more an experienced operator and will in all likelihood continue to learn and become a valuable contributor to the forum.

I still consider myself a noob although flashing ROMs is second nature now; eventually I want to put together a small section of info, gleaned from all the forum sources, that concisely and simply describes the first few steps a noob should do--written in straightforward English with the occasional reminder to READ, THINK, FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS, then READ SOME MORE; perhaps even use some PM's. My personal gratitude to those Senior Members/Mods who maintain a high standard and keep this forum enjoyable for everyone.

Sorry if these questions sound dumb, I'm coming from and HTC one M8 and when i owned it everything was already rooted and many ROMs out so it was fairly easy to gain information about that phone. I now have my phone rooted using PingPongRoot, does this mean I am now able to install custom recovery and get a custom ROM installed or is there something we're still waiting for with the at&t version?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] dave812:
Yes, absolutely, we can install touch wiz based roms, ala the att s5. We just need an interested developer. Anything non touch wiz requires a different kernel, which e cannot change due to the locked boot loader. I suspect since safestrap is dead, we'll have to use Flashfire. I've tried a couple roms from the general section already, but I couldn't get them to boot past the welcome sound.

My Acer Iconia B1_A71 was rooted according Toolkit Acer Iconia v0.9.4.

The system.img.gz was derived from RV05RC05 (RV05RC05 was also mentioned in the program during the rooting proces)

After rooting I got the message that the B1-A71 was rooted now.

But when I restarted the tablet only the Acer logo appeared.

As described in post #264 from Entonjackson I tried to reinstall the system.img.gz.

The system image was not recognized by the B1-A71 so I renamed it to system.img.zip.

It was recognized now but the reinstallation was aborted after a few seconds.

Can you suggest mee how to proceed?

Hi Guys,

I've done some searching of this forum, and can't find anything relating to Tom Tom Go 300's here - so I figure it's safe to post this ;)

I've upgraded to WM6, and everything works wonderfully, but for one thing...

I've a TomTomGo 300 Portable SatNav device, and it doesn't seem to want to work with WM6 - any reasons why? Anything I do to fix it?

When I try and pair the phone and the TTG, it finds the phone - but then comes up with something about there being no required services on the phone. Is this because we don't have DUN on WM6?

Any help/suggestions/abuse appreciated!

Which TomTom are you using?

Instead of starting a new thread, I'll keep using this regarding navigation options.

I have a Cingular 8525 with the VP3G LSVW rom. Since I've read other threads that the internal GPS chip in the TyTN is hopelessly disabled, I'm wondering what type of TomTom software + gps device is everyone else using? I'm thinking that there is something that can connect via BT or emu to my device that will provide the gps portion and then I can just install software.

Please post what you have and links to products would be even better! :D

Hey all!

So, here's the deal.

I want to turn my old note 2 into a tablet for my 4 year old daughter. So it doesn't need a sim card, phone abilities, etc. Just WiFi, maybe YouTube, snote app for drawing, Netflix, games, etc.

Can anyone give me insight into the best way to do this? My main goals are battery life and stability. Currently the phone is rooted, running kitkat of some sort. Already gets stellar battery life. Better than my note 4 if I'm honest. I believe I screwed something up and now it won't charge unless phone is on. So an Odin back to stock prior to further modification is probably best.

I've never done this before. Willing to disable whatever I don't need that won't render phone useless. Just as well to work with stock rom as base? Kernel suggestions?

General speaking phones choose which one to use based on the signal strength(by dBm not by bars). So if you are in an area with a strong 3g signal but it also has a weak 4g signal, it will try to hold on to that 3g signal.
