[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Joseph9876:
Thank you for all your hard work on this and your other ROMs specially like the OC and I see you have added in a new governor.

But I have to ask can we get pie controls like SOKP has? :):D

If u can make good tweeks for sound just like inserting Dolby ROM will be much better:)
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Joseph9876:
Also it has this bug where it doesn't keep CPU clock when you turn the screen on and off or even back out of settings it does it as well. 1350mhz clock speed makes my tab to hot for my liking

No Further Updates !

It seem that no one is interested in PAC-ROM.

The thread is deserted.

Even the Zip ROMs have hardly few downloads.

This project was just waste of time and resources for me.

So finally stopping the project:(

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] takaki:
I don't know why changing IMEI means the machine is stolen from someone.

I live in Hong Kong. The official product at the area is Dopod 838pro. It cost around HK$5700.

We can also buy Softbank X01HT here at only HK$3000(black) or $3400(white). At this price, the shop already help you unlock the machine and flasth the rom to the dopod rom.

The problem is...... when I get the machine, the IMEI of the label and the IMEI I get from *#06# are not the same while the "void" label is still there.

My friends get 2 more machine from shop, same problem happen, IMEI not match, label still perfect =.="

The shop claim that they have use a special way to flash the rom so all machine have the same IMEI =.="

That why I wanna change the IMEI.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Bram87:
Lets start by saying, changing your IMEI is illegal. And second; I dont know what your problem is, because what you are looking for, can be find by using "search" or just surf to google and search there.

just google it out, you will get it..
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] liquidsilver:
You need to find a new, honest shop that sells products that are not modified illegally. Maybe there is a reason their phones are available at such a good price....Hmmmmmm

You also have the option of searching this forum and answering your question using the knowledge and wisdom that has already been documented here.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] hanmin:
It is like buying a car, from a shop, which the car's car-body serial number (eg. the number stamped on a plate on the car's body) is scratched off. Does it mean that the car is stolen? You tell me the answer.

ANYWAY, if HK law is to be still inline with UK's, you can report to police regarding the modified IMEI as it is definately illegal. Again, as above example, you can report the car you've just bought to the police if you've noticed that the serial number has been scratched off.

Flashing the ROM in whatever ways, does not modify the IMEI. AND, chances are, once you had your IMEI changed back to the originals stated in the label, your phone might not be usagable (e.g. if the phone has been reported lost, and the IMEI blocked).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] johnburn:
One of the reasons why changing the IMEI is illegal is that multiple devices on the same network with the same IMEI can cause major technical problems for the network operator. An IMEI is just like a MAC address in the IP world, it is used for location registers and other routing information. Definitely not a good idea to change this if you want to stay in your network operator's good books.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Black6spdZ:
probably not to hard to swap mainboards and obtain new void stickers
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] takaki:
in fact it is not a really problem to me

the machine woks fine. I can upgrade rom/ radio as I like......

If the IMEI matched, it will be perfect

but now it isn't, I still ok with that lol
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Zzan:
Your unit is most likely a refurbished unit that has had a mainboard replacement. The internal IMEI is the one that matters. I would write it down since it doesn't match the externally printed one in case you have any issues and need the # for something. As long as the phone works on the network and you can make and receive calls there isn't any reason to worry.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] abubasim:
I have sold two such phones as trade-ins. These were the JAMin and JASJAM. Both had mainboard replacements due to mishaps during ROM flashing. And both got the replacements done under warranty :D

With my current phone, the concept of ROM cooking doesn't really exist so life has become safe, but a bit dull. :o
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] wan8_kln:
i'm HK mobilephone sales.

haha....

the IMIE doesn't match with the IMEI label

but the void sticker still have.

becoz they can make the void sticker non- borken

and change your mother board from can't unlock one

to a second hand(someone will got some problems...) unlocked one.

and then re-stick the sticker on the phone

so...the *#06# number dosen't match with the IMEI label...

so...becareful when u buy the mobilephone...!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxy3pt:
Hello!

I'm noob in these kind of things (root, flashing...),

I would like to know if there's a way to cook the last available stock SGS2 ROM (4.1.2) and add some Nexus and LG G2/3 tweaks?

The tweaks are:

- Old TV lockscreen effect (Nexus/LG2/LG3...)

- Horizontal Scrollable wallpaper (like it was before on SGS2)

- Tap twice to wake up the screen (LG2/LG3)

- Tap twice to turn off/lock the screen (LG2/LG3)

There, these are the tweaks that I really would enjoy on my SGS2.

If, by any chance, there's a way to cook a Stock Samsung ROM with these features, it would be awesome.

cheers.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_MKay:
Hi,

a friend of mine has a (stock, bootloader-locked) Nexus 4 with a cracked display. It still shows the screen but touches doesn't work anymore. We want to backup the files, for example photos. But unfortunately "USB debugging" is disabled so that ADB doesn't work. We can still get into the recovery mode. But unlocking the bootloader would wipe all data. Since it already has Android 4.4.4 I think there is no workaround to unlock the bootloader without losing data.

Do you have any ideas on how we could backup the data from the phone?

Best regards,

The_MKay
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bla_laber:
Isn't possible to pull all data via adb in stock recovery?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_MKay:
Nope, adb does not find the device while being in bootloader/stock recovery :(
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blacksmith5:
a simple solution

In order to get your files backed up you will need to be able to click on the screen to all you to unlock root the device.

To do this you will need to get a "Micro UB OTG" Cable, see here .

https://www.google.com/search?q=otg...v&sa=X&ei=eftlVduZHoKXsAWvo4CYDg&ved=0CEsQsAQ

Then you can attach a mouse to it. This will allow you to move around and set up the phone to unlock and root. You do this by going to the settings screen, the scroll down to "About Phone" Tap or click on the build number till it says "You are now a developer. The scroll back and you will see Developer options. You will then need to turn the USB switch. You may need to switch from "MTP" to to "camera' Mode so that your pc can read the files and back up your pictures etc.

The other and best option is to Buy on ebay a new "LCD/Digitizer with Frame" and replace the smashed screen with the new one. Be sure to buy the "LCD/Digitizer with Frame" spend the extra dollars fo the frame to be included. as it will reduce the risk of doing further damage. You can view an excellent video on youtube at "LE55ONS" Here is the link

https://youtu.be/AZDAIgwbXk4

I hope this helps you out...

Let us know how you do
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The_MKay:
Thanks for your idea. :good:

I googled around and found out that the Nexus 4 stock kernel does not support USB OTG. :( I could flash another kernel which supports USB OTG. But therefore I need to unlock the bootloader first which would result in data loss :crying:

Can anyone guide or direct me please?

To get a newer Rom, should I wipe and then install it from twrp after the firmware update?

You can but the chances of something going wrong are higher. Flash TWRP with fastboot, then firmware with fastboot, then ROM with TWRP is your best bet.

Weird quirk when opening any SMS the message opens to the bottom of the SMS. I have to scroll up to actually read the message. I have noticed this on ELF, LSVW & BLACK WM6.

You can flash a stock pre rooted 270 through your current recovery and wipe dalvik cache and cache partition. This way you get to keep your data and apps. If you have any problems just use the recovery of your choice to go back to 242.

Using PC companion or OTA updates will make you lose root.

---------- Post added at 01:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 PM ----------

No..... if you use nandroid backup it's a system image and will replace whatever you have installed so you'll effectively downgrade ..... if i understand you correctly you simply want to update to 270 and keep all your apps and data so when you reboot the device it looks the same but it's running 270 instead of 242...?

have a look at the link I sent you above.... you should take another nandroid sys image backup once you have 270 in place and running how you want..... if you have a nandroid 242 and a nandroid 270 you can effectively swap between firmware versions really easily by restoring either one..... and you can see for yourself exactly what the changes have done in the update... BTW... here is the changelog for 270

Xperia Z1c update (14.5.A.0.270) changelog

– Ensured the lock screen / notification bar doesn’t indicate “no service” when the device has coverage

– Added a Sony feature; bringing back the “close-all-button” in the activity menu, so you can easily close all apps at once

– Unblocked devices with server policies (such as Exchange Active Sync for e-mail), to enable the new Lollipop lock-screen notifications

– Ensured the LED light is lit across all sound modes – and no longer offset by “silent”

– Made the necessary fixes to enable the easy movement of content from internal memory to external microSD card (something we saw affecting a few devices)

– Improved messaging functionality in Ultra stamina mode – some conversations could not be opened before in Ultra stamina mode

Most of the time it's better to explain what you want to achieve and detail your device status... rather than ask if you do abc will you get xyz...? English can be a very ambiguous language in written form.

I reckon it might be good in this thread to have a standard format for OP which gets the all the status info about your device and then whether it's an issue and what you've tried to do so far to fix it.... OR.... as in your case a mod task/firmware update that you want to achieve with the results you's like to get.
