Looks like I'm going back to my M8 tonight, which had Lollipop back in November of last year.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] bigv5150:
Ok David Schuster just posted on G+ that the turbo is still in the lab test cycle. And it is 5.1 but there is no release date. However it is going very well in regards to testing. For what it's worth.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Martingitdave:
I'm betting on mid July. Glad to hear they are still testing 5.1. I was worried they couldn't integrate their AC in 5.1, got pressured by VZW, and dropped back to their OEM solution with 5.02. What a relief. Now, we will have less three letter acronyms to remember.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] johnathon.wion:
All the blame

Everyone keeps blaming Verizon and Motorola but the whole reason anyone thought we were getting this on the 10th was because David Ruddock – ‏@RDR0b11 said so. People posting dates when they have no real proof is the real problem. We get it when we get it... But people need to stop stirring the pot.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Technogen:
For the date being wrong yeah that's all on David, but the fact that it's not even out of testing that's all on Moto and VZW.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Wynnded:
He said that he was just passing the info on to the general public, He said that it may not be bang on. He said it could get delayed. He said that because he wasn't confident enough in the information that it wasn't going to be posted on Android Police. It's Verizon requiring that the device is doing what they want it to in the way they want it to do it. It must be up to their standard. This is not unusual. Companies that don't make their own product do it all the time. We do it when when we shop for phones, cars, food, homes, friends, and mates.

With that said, there's no need to weed out a scapegoat for our frustrations. It's our responsibility to find some sort of distraction to pass the time productively.

/rant, sorry 'bout that.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Slartibartfast_:
We're not blaming them for not giving it to us on 6/10, we're blaming them for not giving it to us 3 months ago. Yesterday was only a rumor we were trying to hang on to.

The same guy who tweeted the supposed 6/10/15 release date later tweeted that it would now be 6/12/15... Should we have any hope for a possible OTA tomorrow?

No, none.

Sorry.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Skrilax_CZ:
So well, I see there are still Droid Turbo users still with stinking Kitkat; and Moto MAXX / Turbo users with either stock 5.0.2 or 5.1.1 with CM12.1. What a pity :p

No ownership

The #droidturbo will be the last carrier flagship for me. I'm fact, this experience is making me second guess everyone involved... Verizon, Motorola and Android (well, google). Too much confusion, no clear messaging, no one in charge of the end to end upgrade process. I hate to say it but the Apple ecosystem on AT&T is look pretty good to me right now.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TechSavvy2:
Thanks for the good laugh :good:

You're aware that they do have a VERY solid system in place. The only problem that occurred is that you latched onto some leaks. If you just went on with life, accepted the update when it happens, you'd realize its the same as Apple and every other OEM. Apple just doesn't let **** leak because they have fewer hands in the cookie jar by the time you get to the jar. There are people who are in charge of the update end to end. The same way as they are in charge of the Apple update end to end. It all goes through the same cycle, lol.

Bye.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] terroh8er:
Personally, I'm glad people have woken up and are pissed off. It was apparently enough for Motorola (David Schuster) to issue a response -- something they've been unwilling to do until now.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ariaz09:
Motorola's David Schuster Says Lollipop For The DROID Turbo Is Still In Lab Testing

According to Schuster, the Android 5.1 update for this device is in the "lab test cycle." He adds that the update is looking good, but there's no launch date planned yet. This could mean that the update was "ready" at one point, but Verizon found some issue with it and sent Motorola back to the drawing board to modify and retest. This is all pretty ironic for a device called the "Turbo."

So bottom line, it's coming, but it won't be right away. Hopefully it'll still launch before Android M starts rolling out. That sure would be embarrassing if it didn't.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Galaxo60:
Meanwhile, the Verizon Moto E is receiving Android 5.1 Lollipop.

:cyclops:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Right. That's what the "no big deal" or "what's wrong with keeping KitKat forever?" people keep missing. Not only does every other flagship phone have Lollipop, so do all other Motorola smartphones. What did Motorola screw up so badly with the Droid Turbo they can't put Lollipop on it, on Verizon?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] hotrodwinston:
It's probably what did vzw screw up so bad that moto can't get lollipop on it.

Hello there, My name is Danilo and Im from Colombia.

Recently, I bought a data plan from a normal company in my country, but, the problem is that after three days of use, I saw that a process called "Removed apps and users" is taking like 100MB of data with unnecessary actions. It has an android robot as icon and it doesn't have the option to restrict background data.

Help me please, what is using my data in that way?

I think it would be cool to run other operating systems besides Android on my phone. I know that such a task as porting an OS takes a lot of work, I was just curious as to what others thought, and to pique interest if anyone sees demand and wants to make this a reality. I would love to run a GNU/Linux OS such as Jolla Sailfish or Ubuntu Touch on my phone :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Karim9495:
I am sorry if this post is in the wrong section but i am new here and i don't really know where to post this so feel free to move it where ever you want.

My problem is that after rooting my galaxy s4 gt-i9505 with odin and it was successful when i got in i found that nearly all the apps have been wiped and that is the minor problem but the main issue that nearly all the system apps is not working, including play store , messages and many others and every time i restart the phone when it opens up it gives me the "certain" app has stoped working .. MANY masseges of this type like 5-10.

Also even after i installed FB it don't want to pass the login screen and it shuts down.

Again, i am sorry if this is in the wrong place but i know if someone is going to be able to help it is going to be you guys.

Thanks in advance.

Can you attach that image here, to take a look? It sounds like there is no ramdisk in it. There are some phones that doesn't have ramdisks in boot images.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HappyRoms:
Sure thing, just remove .zip from the file name, had to do that as it only allows 8Mb img uploads

I'm trying to edit the boot so that I might be able to make the external SD into the data drive, is this even possible or am I wasting my time?

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Ok, I see... Your image is "lokified". In order to use my tool you need to "de-lokify" it first, then after modding you need to "re-lokify" it back. Some infos here and here. It may be many other infos but I didn't have time to do a full search; you have to do it for yourself.

Some LG and Samsung devices have that "Loki" thing and you need to deal with it. Maybe when I'll have a phone like that I'll make an automated process for it, but now I haven't and I can't work "in blind".

I don't know what to say about your last question... I'm not even sure what you're talking about.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HappyRoms:
Awesome, thanks!

basically, the LG Optimus F3 comes with too little memory built in, there's a program that mounts an external SD's second partition as a data folder, but even still it runs out of internal memory or won't install apps larger than the internal memory because the "System" partition still has little room.

so the goal was to edit the boot so it will boot using an external SD directly as the system drive, it would read it's maximum memory available as whatever the external SD's maximum is.

this would solve the problem, if it works, if not then it'll probably just brick the phone :good:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HappyRoms:
I just wanted to update and say thanks. This helped out great! I was able to successfully boot /data from my external SD card as desired, however, my card is only a class 2 so it won't be a good idea until I upgrade it to a class 10.

Lg Optimus F3 comes with very little internal storage, which was giving me a headache, so I wanted to make the phone boot using an external SD as the /data partition.

after following your tip, I unloki'd the boot image and used your Carliv Image Kitchen to extract the contents, edited the fstab and edited out the original code: "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata /data" telling it to mount /data on the /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 instead.

after repacking and re-loking and flashing the .img it had some problems, for some reason it was just booting to a black screen, so I used dd from the team win terminal to copy the /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/userdata over to the /dev/block/mmcblk1p2, and it worked!

being a class 2, it booted slowly and responded slowly but works none the less.

to be sure there was no problem with partition size, being how I used dd to mirror userdata over to the sdcard, I ran gparted in linux and resized the partition smaller, then larger to full size (just in case)

thanks for your wonderful tool and for pointing me in the right direction.

help sir carliv please

I was trying to install cm12 using carliv touch recovery 3.3 for kit kat on my alcatel pop d3 but it failed now my phone is stuck and wont turn on

what version of cm can that recovery install??????
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
The answer is already in your question:

As I already posted in recovery's thread, it will work with kitkat kernels. Some people port it to lollipop but I never recommended that.

So to answer clearly cm11 because cm12 means lollipop, or it will work with any other kitkat based ROM if your phone has any kitkat kernel released.

You need to ask the one who released that cm12 for your phone to provide a matching recovery along.

Now you probably need to reflash the phone with SPFlashTools.

Since main Carlive Image Kitchen thread has been closed in 2017 all the util builds have been lost for some unknown reason. Dev claimed he have personal problems and adviced users to help each other.

I've found latest official version 1.3 builds and publish them here for practical and historic reasons. This util mentioned in a various manuals so people will look for it for a long time then. Old Linux modded version by yuweng is also added for completeness.

Furthermore user FOV5 @ 4pda.ru forums have modded latest 1.3 version a few times so I do publish here his latest modded version 1.5B3 (12-Jan-2018)

Changes history:

- v1.4: Support for some non-standard kernel images (e.g. LibreELEC and similar).

- v1.5B1:

- Removed 'Boot' and 'Recovery' prefixes from file names while unpacking Boot/Recovery images. This is due to ability to easily compare whole Boot and Recovery folders after unpacking.

- Added optional experimental AmLogic core unpacking. This could be helpful to patch storage media layout when device partition build into the core.

- v1.5B2: Fixed 32 bit app crash after core unpacking. A few other small non critical fixes.

- v1.5B3:

- New while core slitting, parameters like Name, Load Address and Entry Point are preserved.

- Fixed: New app will try to pack core only when all the 4 kernel parts are found in the unpacking folder. If core unpacking process some kind failed, one or more kernel.* files will be missing, so repack process will use original core instead of trying to assemble broken one.

View attachment 4420577

If you have any questions related to this modded app version look for FOV5 user at 4pda.ru forums and ask him (I don't know does he speak any langs except Russian, online translators available anyway. There is also Russian numeric captcha problem for non-Russian speakers when loggin in to that forums, sorry guys). I do not often use this app and occasionally visit XDA, so I can't support this product in a professional manner. Help each other guys!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Restola:
I dial into half a dozen conference calls a day, and I'm pretty good at punching the 8 digit codes into the dialer. The stock phone app on the nexus 6 requires that I punch in the codes VERY slowly, as in at *least* a full second or more between each digit or else it will only register a few numbers. The hangouts dialer I can punch in the digits as fast as my thumbs can type though.

Although clearly not the end if the world I've never had this issue before and it gets old. Any ideas to fix it?

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrgoodpaul:
I have the carrier unlocked m9 straight from HTC. I was wondering if you could flash something like the dev edition RUU or say the T-Mobile RUU on it with out any failure? If so what would be the pros and cons of each one? I have been led to understand that the only difference between the Dev and the Unlocked is that the bootloader is unlocked which is no big deal bc I'm unlocked and s-off.

The only reason I would be interested in flashing the T-mobile RUU is for the wifi calling and texting capabilities.

(I am aware that you can change both the CID and the MID through fastboot.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Brian_svc:
Hello everyone,

Let me preface this by saying that I have googled this extensively and used the search feature on XDA but so far I have come up with no clear results. Apologize if this has been asked before (it probably has). I hope you guys can help me by providing me with some definite answers.

Background:

I've been researching about getting Lollipop on my device (I had it on my rooted sprint s4 and I miss it dearly). I've heard that the MetroPCS S5 is the exact phone as the T-Mobile S5. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to confirm whether that's the case or not. I have a MetroPCS S5 (SM-G900T1), and I would greatly appreciate it if you guys took the time to answer these questions for me:

1) Are they really the same phone?

AFTER SIM-UNLOCKING THE PHONE

2) Can I put T-Mobile S5 custom recoveries on the Metro Version?

3) Can I put T-Mobile S5 custom ROMs on the Metro version?

If the answers to question 2 and 3 is "NO" then where can I find a place where people are developing for the MetroPCS S5 or that place doesn't exist?

Thank you all for reading and for any help.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] esjames:
1) They are mostly the same as they do use the same network.

2) Any KLTE recovery will work.

3) Any KLTE rom SHOULD work, check the OP of the roms developer. Any KLTE AOSP rom will work.

Here is a site showing the recoveries are the same. -->HERE<--
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] ShinySide:
You can actually flash the stock firmware and have the new modem and everything.(won't have metro bloat anymore but will have tmo which you can delete all that and grab metro bloat if you wanted it) But yes firmware, recoveries, roms, etc
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] Brian_svc:
Thank you very much for your answer and your time.

Thank you for your reply. It's cool to hear everything is compatible although I'm still very nervous about trying it lol

Can you expect in the distant future a way to install a custom recovery without tripping the knox count (I believe that's what it's called)? As far as I know there's no way to reset that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] gspears:
Doubtful that Knox will be figured out anytime in the near future. And you are correct, you cannot reset it once it's tripped.

But if you look around at the Knox threads, the vast majority of users that have tripped Knox have not had any problem getting service or warranty work. So for the most part it's a non issue.

Of course YMMV
[AT&T LG G3] skeevydude:
If someone running the latest AT&T update, IIRC 21p, could take a nandroid and upload the system, boot, and modem partitions it would help me out a lot.

Don't have a PC at the moment so I can't go back to stock to take the OTA for fear of losing root and custom recovery.

Preferably with no debloat or changes other than root (or Viper :p)

Thanks.
