[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
The holdup for all you impatient people is for Alcatel to release the source code on sourceforge. If you go back through the thread you can find the link where you can go to that sourceforge page and request the source under the issues section. Another user stated they appeared to have a past history of eventually filling these requests. Having the source will allow someone to compile a boot.img which would be used in custom recoveries...that's one way to get root on the phone..via flashing supersu with a custom recovery....the other is to compile a rom with supersu present which the source code will also enable....after all that then folks can begin to work on custom rom's that work around issues and add features.

It amazes me the sheer amount of people demanding updates and stating they are no longer recommending the phone based on the complaints here...the vocal minority who have issues will always be the ones posting...folks who have phones that "just work" for the most part never even join a forum like xda let alone make posts. I'm impatient for root just as much as anyone else but realistically 5 weeks or so is NOT a long time to be waiting on updates..especially given that one update was already waiting when the phone first went out.

If you disabled all the animations and use an alternative launcher like apex or nova the "lag" is much less noticeable. Other apps that may help are:

Adguard - Creates local vpn to enable ad blocking on non root phones. I own the pro version.

Autorun Manager - Can be used to kill SOME apps that auto run at startup. Does not work well with apps that auto restart after being killed but it clears out some of the dead weight.

Helium - with access to pc can be used even on non rooted phone to backup/restore apps AND their data.

Greenpower Free - Battery saver that can do things such as turn on wifi periodically then turn back off if no available hotspots found. It can also enable bluetooth when charging and disable when not. It cuts down on app autosync's. Has alot worth looking at. I own the pro version

Hangar - Add your recent apps to bottom of notification drop down.

Lightning browser - Light and fast with built in ad blocking.

Lux Lite - Adjusts background brightness based on surroundings. (I own the pro)

MoboClean - This is a big one...uses a wrapper to add fine tuned privacy settings to many apps...allows you to disable autostart/background running...prevent an app from accessing contact data, phone number, location etc.....

Rocketdialer - my preferred dialer.

Screen Off - used with nova or apex launcher to enable double tap to sleep since the "native version" only works with the default launcher.

Swiftkey Keyboard - My personal choice for keyboard.

Truecaller - Identifies many incoming callers and allows option to add to contacts.

Wefi Pro - Keeps a database of public open wifi spots and will auto connect to them if you are in their vicinity.

Hope some of that is useful.

I totally agree with you. The phone's been out for 5 weeks and they expect another update so soon. Be patient. Changing animation settings and using Nova Prime has worked great for me. I am enjoying this phone more than any other I have owned before. Some people have bigger issues that need more direct and immediate support but for most people it will be the general lag issue. Love the addition of the list of apps. I use a couple of them but I will be checking out many of the ones I do not. Thanks.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gecko702:
couldnt agree more i have apex launcher and the lag is less noticeable either way im still waiting for a root for this phone untill they release the source code

Also recommend deleting Anti Virus software that comes installed on phone. This was a BIG improvement for me.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
I don't know about that as a general rule. I didn't find the antivirus to be all that invasive...but then again I got the pro version of avg free from amazon appstore (I posted about it in alcatel apps section of forum). There are now a few worm/virus's that DO specifically target android and even linux...congrats..we've reached the big leagues. AVG also provides "find my phone" features if you for some reason are not using alcatel's.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjketchen:
Excellent post! Don't understand the impatience? The phone out of the box works very well, especially for the $199 I got it during the April pre-order sale. I can live with the glitches like DTTW being almost unusable and the lag here and there. In many ways it is an improvement over my OnePlus One which had a worse screen and lousy LTE Band support. Not as fast but the dual front speakers are excellent and near stock Lollipop without a horrid bloatware packed skin like a Samsung or the Asus Zenfone 2 makes it nice. Cyanogen 11S on the OnePlus One was glitchy and unstable with every update breaking something. I had to survive on Custom ROMs till COS12 rolled out on the One. Just be thankful we have overall a really good phone at a phenomenal price. We'll get root eventually. It could be a lot worse than it is.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luminouche:
Still no root ?

I won't buy it if not.

Alcatel sales will also suffers from this. I can't understand this policy.

Idol 3 is a great device, but sales figures will stay low. Sad.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
There is no "policy" to prevent root. What there is, is the normal delay for source code when the phone is still being released to parts of the world such as Canada as recently as june 30th. This may or may not involve changes for the service providers in that region. We've already seen that at least one person with the "international version" had different software on the phone. As for it's sales...it seems to be doing just fine as is.

Some folks need a reality check.

I have succefully ported TWRP on Alcatel Idol 3 (6039Y), here is a proof:

So i have root on my device:

[IMG="Root on Alcatel Idol 3"]http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-VMzmfm0jk30/VZr76mbjtAI/AAAAAAAAHGY/BlQgk6vhGPE/s320/Screenshot_2015-07-07-00-41-14.png[/IMG]

All needed files is in my blog article: Alcatel Idol 3 (4.7") 6039Y. Взгляд со стороны. Blog is in russian, but you can use Google Translate if needed.

Installation of TWRP is very simple, you just need to activate USB Debug in developer options, than run the following commands:

1. adb reboot bootloader

2. fastboot -i 0x1bbb flash recovery twrp_recovery_alcatel_6039y.img

After you have installed TWRP - you can install UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip to get root.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] neilownz:
Not to be a buzzkill, but does anyone even have the 4.7?
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DallasCZ:
nice post, but how do you build the TWRP recovery (you call it sometime CWM recovery, even the archove has name CWM recovery)? Anyone here can flash a custom recovery...i personally also, but i wouldnt do it, becouse if something go wrong i dont have the stock recovery to reflash.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeckerSU:
This is TWRP 2.8.6.0 as you can see (do not pay attention to archive name). Also archive includes original stock recovery. Regarding the second question - is not necessarily to flash TWRP. You can test it without flash. To boot in TWRP without flashing simple execute the following:

fastboot -i 0x1bbb boot twrp_recovery_alcatel_6039y.img

If you want to flash it:

fastboot -i 0x1bbb flash recovery twrp_recovery_alcatel_6039y.img

Also, if you want to flash stock recovery - replace in the above command twrp_recovery_alcatel_6039y.img to recovery_original_6039y.img.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DallasCZ:
i understand, but how you get the stock recovery and how you build the TWRP? i want to do the same for 5.5 version.

Asi know:

1-you have to have stock recovery to get partition table of mmcblk

2-you have to have at least partial root to get stock recovery

3-then you can build custom recovery

so without a stock recovery we are stuck , same as without the kernel (boot) image which will help to do the root other way (patch the kernel and flash the kernel instead of stock one).
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeckerSU:
DallasCZ, unfortunatelly i haven't stock recovery to a 5.5" Idol 3.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DallasCZ:
i know, but where you get the stock recovery and how you build the twrp recovery then, if you say yo uhave ported it?
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] famewolf:
Be a neat trick since you need to have a valid boot.img to build TWRP or CWM and alcatel hasn't released the source to do so.
[Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DallasCZ:
can be true, you can obtain boot.img for example from friend who works in certified alcatel service center or by getting an update packagefrom service center...

The Bluetooth control panel applet doesnt easily turn it off or on, I think Bram87 is looking for basically a toggle, with the Bluetooth icon in the tray, and Bram87..correct me if I am wrong

I am not familiar if the commmgr links to something else, or controls the bluetooth alone, but if it does it alone, I think you will need to find a toggle app, to stick in the tray launch, I was looking into this just a little while back, seen some crap for the today screen etc..but never really what I was looking for, I could have completely missed it also, Im sure someone else has more useful info on all of this than I do.

Naa, I wouldnt call it useless, Im sure there are plenty who didnt know that .zip existed, and might find it handy, not everyone knows the search button very well.

Also back on the topic, I think a toggle app is going to have to be made, unless somemone else can find one aleady wrote, also if someone cares to do a custom one, we wouldnt have to use traylaunch.

Thanks Hiimcliff

I installed batterystatus to check it out, but it shows a little box with like settings, on/off, and another which I forget.

Im really picky about stuff on my today screen, and just decided to ditch it, but it has made me curious as to how its controlling the bluetooth, it almost looks as though its working through the bluetooth cpl, and I almost think the bluetooth cpl .lnk in the files that Mablan posted could be defined to turn it on of off, for example the .lnk opens to "devices" but I know it could be set to open to "mode" and possibly even directly toggle it on/off, I dunno..its not really important to me, it just has me curious, and figured Id post about it, incase someone else knows better.

Hi, first I want state that I am not a dev, so I want to thank all the devs out there for making things possible for us reg users.

I am running TWRP v2.5.0.0, rooted.

HTC One M7 (AT&T)

Android 4.1.2

HTC Sense 5.0

Software # 1.26.502.15

HTC SDK API level 5.12

(currently backed up incase I brick)

I have 2 things I am seeking to solve. Any comments/feed back is greatly appreciated. If you provide me the steps that would make it easier.

1) updating app issue.

I am having an issue with updating apps. my HTC one M7 keeps telling me I don't have enough storage space. I checked i have total of 32 gigs cap with 18 gigs used.

I cleared my delvik/cache already. Every time i try to update google maps or youtube or anything, keeps bringing me to manage apps to uninstall to free up space

2) How to get rid of AT&T bloatware that is pre installed? (not too important issue, but wanted to know)

I use Titanium back up to uninstall hem, but they show up after refresh. Seems to be part of the phone and can't get rid of them.

If there is a rom out there without the bloatware, please link me to it and I will recover using twrp.

Complete Data Wipe.

HP Touchpad 32GB.

Just about when Google begins to download Apps and Settings during the prompted welcome setup the Touchpad rebooted. The ROM came back up with the WiFi disabled and message about Camera stopped.

[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shumash:
Find the file moboot.default in /boot. Using a root file editor, change the contents from TWRP to:

(note capitalization):

CyanogenMod

Editing files in /boot is tricky. It may not save it, in which case you'll need to save your file under a different name, delete the original moboot.default file, then rename your saved file as moboot.default.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luvmyi:
Thanks for quick reply. I tried to change permission using Android Browser and ESplorer with no luck. It won't let me delete boot.default or modify the file. Do I need to delete the file connecting to my PC or using toolbox to delete the boot.default. I was trying to install your version of LP 5.1 with tool box but it didnt like the zero gapp file from op. So I install with TWRP. Now the boot.default read what is left from previous build of LP "everVolv".
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashenn:
I don't know if it's still the case, but in the past you often needed to wipe going between AOSP builds and not. That it says EverVolv seems to indicate it's not been cleaned. In any case, make sure you have root. Hit the build number in "about" 5 times to get developer options and turn on root in the developer options. The root apps should let you modify after that.
[TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luvmyi:
I was not able to install PacMan LPGA 5.1 with toolbox. It said something wrong with the gapps file. How did you install it? With toolbox? I tried with several different gapps in the Op but fail to install with toolbox. So I download the Rom and move to external card intt folder that was created with tool box from evervolv then use twrp wipe system data delvik and cache then install. Will that consist of clean install or do I need to install with toolbox?

Anyway I got the problem fixed using your advise to to turn on root access to App in developer option and install SuperSu then with root browser to change permission and delete old moboot.default and past a new one that I previously copied to a different folder.

Thanks for all the help. Still can not figure out how to install PacMan LPGA 5.1 WITH toolbox?
