Hello,

I have a Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime (SM-5308W) from China, and I have just successfully rooted it using CF-Auto-Root and ODIN.

I cannot though, install any of the Google Apps and downloading and running Gapps.APK doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

I would like someone to confirm, but from reading bits and pieces over XDA I think I understand how to root and install cm12.. So I'm on the updated stock lollipop. I understand that you can root with the one click program and install twrp through something like flashify. Once in recovery I need to flash the 20g bootstack and the JB bootloader, then I can proceed to flash cm12 and gapps...if that's right, someone please let me know.

I've just wasted a lot of time flashing 5.1.1, rooting it and installing xposed framework, and testing it only to find (like many others already had) that 5.1.1 is so laggy that I'm going back to 4.4.4.

Experience with android m

I installed android m on my nexus 5 and I think it is worth it.

For example

- you can change the volume seamless with your finger but with

The buttons change it with 15 steps (like on I phone I think)

- the app drawer is now vertical and alphabetical and on top

Are the 4 recent apps

- you can activate multi window mode which is working but a bit

To battery life I would say that it is a little better but the is no

Big difference.

But you have not much opportunities to modify your system

Because xposed or other things are not working.

I'm using M on N5 since its release. The only major problem I had with it was fixed yesterday. Evernote was crashing, but all is good now after an update.

As for the interface changes, I can't say much as I'm a Nova fanboy and slap it on every device right away.

Battery life is a dream. This Doze thing is almost black magic. Right now, after a few hours of Spotify listening over Wifi, it's reporting 76% with "approximately" 1 day and 6 hors left. This isn't even close to what I was getting on 5.0.1

I don't plan to root so I can get the OTAs when they become available. Right now, there's only 1 rooting method for M, which involves flashing a rooted kernel through a custom recovery.

M could stand for:

Moonpie

M&M

Milky Way

Marshmellow

Hello guys I'd like to share my experience, I've sold my xperia Z but left MHL adapter.

I've just bought my second Huawei P7 and without any expectation I connected it via HDMI MHL to my HD Toshiba TV and that's it, works straight away, also you need micro usb charger to plug in to mhl adapter and HDMI-HDMI cable to make it works (I used my wife's pink portable charger :D)

My Huawei P7 is running official kitkat B123 Emotion UI 2.3, no root, no mods at all.

MHL bought from PCWorld store UK £13.99 including 11-pin and 5-pin connector

[P3300, MDA Compact III General] edwardlican:
format with help of Pocket Mechanic

You can format it with the help of Pocket Mechanic. It will do a god job but it just take quite a bit of time since the Artemis is much slower than the PC.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] dannyoneill:
Anyone know which format works best in the Artemis. I mean FAT16 or FAT32. Also best cluster size.

I know the theory but the speed really depends on the device more than anything else and what it prefers.

At the moment my Sandisk Ultra II is FAT16 and performs ok.

Anyone else have an opinion?

I followed this and partitioned my card, mainly as TOMTOM seemed to have to be in the root of the storage card and I didn't like my stuff being with it as it was messy.

So I now have a 1GB card split as follows 400MB partition (storage card) just for TOMTOM and about 548MB (storage card2) for my stuff.

The main partition need to be the one you use for TOMTOM and 400MB was good for me as I just have the UK maps.

[Xperia Z1 General] optimumpro:
When you put a kernel from one rom to another, you have to keep in mind the following:

Most custom roms rename the secondary init.cm.rc file with their custom name. That file is called by the main init.rc during boot and is responsible for several vital functions, such as sysinit/init.d; cpu frequencies; ril, dalvik and adb functions. So, if you put DU kernel in CM rom, the main init would call for init.cm.rc, but your boot image has no such file. Instead, you have init.du.rc. Your device will still boot, but permissions won't be set, services won't start and some functions won't work.

The proper way to change kernels is to decompile the new boot image and replace ramdisk,cpio with that from your rom where init.rc calls the proper file.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kasvinda:
I was on stock lollipop before flashing the CloudyG2 3.1 and i got stuck at the LG logo (looping). I wish this guide will help you in case. :)

Download the bootstrack (lollipop) from http://blastagator.ddns.net/bootloader.php

and place it on the phone storage (you can transfer files while your on the recovery TWRP)

Do the wiping mentioned in the cloudy's thread and install the rom followed by the bootsrack.

**To go to recovery use this button combination

Hold the power button till it fully shuts down. The press vol down and power till the lg logo appears. Release them and repress. Use keys to factory reset and it will direct you to the recovery.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikkowus:
so I broke the tab in the usb port in my nexus 4. I bought an induction charger but it doesn't seem to be charging the thing very well. It will sometimes turn on and I can see the battery is at 0% and it shuts down. do you think there is a chance there is a short in the port itself making it so that the battery drains itself? I left it charging overnight with no luck. What to do next? remove the port entirely while I wait for the new usb daughter board to come in the mail?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
I think it's more likely that the broken USB tab is causing either a short or has broken a connection the phone expects, which fools the circuitry into thinking the phone is plugged in to USB, which won't allow it to charge via Qi. You could try charging it with the daughterboard removed, but I'd be surprised if it works. Hopefully you have a back-up phone while you wait for the part, even if it's a RAZR V3 or Nokia 3310. SIM won't match, obviously, but you can probably pick up an adapter locally.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikkowus:
That makes sense. I do have an old samsung tmobile phone that lasts about 4 hours on its battery. I guess I might be using that for a few days. I'ts at home though and I'm at work. It would be nice if this thing would just work. I need to find a t5 torx wrench and scew it up more......
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Planterz:
Some advice for someone who hasn't taken this phone apart yet:

First, go to ifixit and familiarize yourself with the teardown guide. There are also some youtube videos that are helpful (if you can't find them immediately, look for screen replacement guides.

Second, you'll need something thin and flat, and hopefully not with sharp edges. They make tools for this, but I doubt you'll be willing to order them and wait. Myself, I used the nail file from a keychain Swiss Army Knife. It's possible, even likely you'll cosmetically damage the plastic up a bit. If you have a hair drier (or even a heat gun), this can aid in softening up the adhesive. In any case, go slowly.

Do the disassembly over a fluffy towel. There are many tiny screws, and a fluffy towel will trap them rather than having them bounce away and disappear.

As I write this, another thought occurs to me. If you can, wait a few more days, but order yourself a new battery off eBay. Many sellers include the needed disassembly tools (including a T5 TORX, small Philips, and the plastic separating tools). Your Nexus 4 is probably 1.5-2.5 years old by now, which means your battery has had well over 500 cycles. At this point, you've lost upwards of 20% your battery's original capacity. Or don't wait, but order a new battery anyway and reopen the phone when you get it. The degradation of a battery is slow and one really doesn't notice it until that day you think to yourself "it seems like it used to last longer". Indeed, you may open up your phone to discover a puffed-out battery in desperate need of replacement anyway.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikkowus:
Cool. I did end up ordering a new battery because of just that thought. It will be coming Friday though so I might not want to wait. I'll probably end up opening it up twice.. I also happened to open the phone about a 3 weeks after I bought it as somehow the screen cracked. I also have a heatgun. :P The phone is pretty old. I got it on release.
