[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Username375:
I have an Acer Liquid Z500 I want to know if the STOCK ROM downloaded from the official Acer site can be installed using the STOCK recovery. I searched over and over and i couldn't find anything about this so I posted it here.

I don't want to flash a custom recovery, I still a "noob" in this domain knowing that this phone is an MTK65xx based (there is no Liquid Z500 tutorials on the whole XDA forum LOL) so "normal installation ways" such as ODIN (not compatible and google is FILLED with ODIN ODIN ODIN ODIN ODIN ODIN ODIN ODIN. and that makes it difficult to me to find the appropriate guide) can brick it.

In the recovery there is an "install update.zip from SDcard" so I don't know if someday I bricked my phone I could install the STOCK ROM using this option or no so a will have a Plan B if this ocurrs.

Yes, my phone is rooted.

AND!!! I don't want a guide of how to install the custom recovery, because I find it too risky for me, if something went wrong I cannot solve it (it has an integrated battery so I can't remove it).

And thank you for your answers :laugh:

PS: It's my first post after a deep desesperation not being able to find an answer for my question :crying:
[HTC One Mini] JanCl:
Hello,

I'm using this rom, and like it very much..

Just one thing, my phone keeps asking me to update software to android 5.0.1

It keeps poping up. I tried it once (wich I think isn't a great idea) but my phone just reboots into recovery (TWRP). The only thing I can do at that point is to reboot system, nothing is changed after the reboot, I'm just back to 4.4.4. Then later the phone starts asking for the update again...

Does someone have a solution for this?

Thanks,

Jan
[HTC One Mini] deiwiux:
I've installed this rom recently and as far as I can say the update is useless because it's for htc one m7. On the update screen it says that they want to update the one m7 and it happens in my opinion because this rom is ported from one m7 or something, idk ;) I think the best solution would be to sumply ignore the update notification and live life as usual. If I come up with any solution I'll notify as soon as possible :good:

Playback pause

Hey, I've came up one more problem using this rom - my music playback pauses randomly. On the rom forum some guys said they have the same issue and as a solution they use poweramp music player where the issue is gone for them. The problem is that my poweramp is also broken as other music players :( my in-call audio is fully working because I have applied fix zip mentioned in the main forum. Maybe the problem occurs with music playback because of the fix zip? I'll try to re-flash rom and see if the problem still exist.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] fanfic65:
Hello, today i tried to setup remote shares that you can find under storage in settings i read tutorial on this website http://unsolicitedbutoffered.blogspot.com/2015/01/unsolicited-question-can-sony-xperia.html

So first of all, my remote shares setup menu is different (see screenshots and if possible upload screenshots of your menu so i can see if its maybe because i run android 4.3)

and when i click add host it dosent ask me if i want to setup windows or sftp, it just opens menu where i have to enter host info (this how it should ask me windows or sftp https://sasapetrovicblog.files.wordpress.com/2014/11/39.jpg?w=168&h=300 but it never asks me)

I tired to setup using both windows and freesshd software but both failed so i need help with two things:

1 can someone explain me how to make remote share on windows and then set it up to work with my Z Ultra

2 can someone help me to setup freesshd to work with my phone, i created user in software and entered all info in my phone but it always gives "could not connect to 192.168.1.2 please make sure that you have entered correct information for this host", i was able to connect to mini sftp server (http://www.coreftp.com/server/) but i want to use freesshd

Here are my screenshots because XDA developers forum is changing size of my screenshots https://drive.google.com/folderview...RIWUYwTlRVNHh6OWFTb3VFN2VRY2Q3cE0&usp=sharing

please help, im trying to make it work for about 3 or 4 hours already and it wont work, im so frustrated now and im about to throw everything trough the windows, please help.

Sorry for my bad English.

Hi. I just got an OTA notification for software update 5.1 Version 23.16.3.en.US for my rooted TWRP recovery XT1095. The phone currently has 5.1 version23.11.14.victara_tmo.tmo.en.US.

What is the best way for me to take the update? I tried to revert to stock recovery with multitool, but nothing happened when I pressed 3. Should I find another way to flash back to stock recovery and take the OTA update?

Thanks.

Mini's Magic World is a small platformer game with gamepad support and local multiplayer mode (similar to what you can do in Rayman and Mario - a few people jumping and running on the same level, whoever collects more things wins).

It took me several months to make. In the end I've started hating it a bit, but I am quite content with the end result.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] buckeyestargazer:
I maintain several phones (2 Sprint GS4 and 2 Verizon GS4) for my parents, wife and myself. All of them have been rooted etc. Because updating to Android 5.0 would more than likely just confuse my parents who can barely understand it as is, I'd like to avoid taking the update on these phones. Is there a way to turn off the update so that no notifications come etc?

So far the only phone that has received a notification is my wife's phone, but there is a message that there is insufficient space for the update.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
Long click on the notification hit App Info, then uncheck Show Notifications. That's the easiest way.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] buckeyestargazer:
That seems easy enough, but since this is Google Play Services will I miss any other important notifications if I turn notifications off?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
Well if you don't want to do that I just remembered you can simply change the build.prop. On the Sprint version you would change everything to OD2, system thinks you're on OD2, no notification. I don't know what the build numbers are on Verizon. There are other methods too such as FOTAkill.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] buckeyestargazer:
I'm not saying I don't want to disable the notification as you suggested, I just want to know that I won't miss other important notifications besides the OTA.

I tried FOTAKill and it didn't work.

Changing the build.prop is a bit out of my league. I could probably figure it out...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
I can't think of any other notifications Play Services gives... Play Store notifications are through the Play Store so those won't be effected. Like I said there are a bunch of ways to skin this cat.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] bilgerryan:
The build.prop method is rather easy, navigate to /system/build.prop with a Root Browser and open up the text file. Near the top there will be lines with the build name and details, etc. (These lines will look different than mine on KitKat, but are just as easy to spot, I think there is a three letter one somewhere too that says NG2). Simply change them all to what the Lollipop build is called, save, sand reboot. When it checks for OTAs it will see you already have it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] buckeyestargazer:
Well that's easy enough. I'll give it a shot!

Thanks for the comprehensive guide. For some reason step 11) Getting my D6653 into recovery is not working (Also tried ADB reboot recovery)

Any ideas?

EDIT: After updating BusyBox, and then re-installing the Recovery, it re-started and is now stuck in a bootloop..

EDIT2: The bootloop is very likely related to this (from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2261606):

"@vaisakh7 found a busybox updater which seems to be compatible with XZDualRecovery: Busybox On Rails, which installs a version of busybox created by stericson, which leads me to believe his Busybox installer should also install a version which works together with XZDualRecovery.

Either case, be careful with updating busybox as there still is a possibility it will break your ability to enter recovery or even break full root, which means you might not be able to recover from the broken situation. Your best bet is the installer version, using that to break the lock on the system partition and reinstall the correct busybox."

With so many full car kits plus the new style visor mounted kits I was looking for some advice.

From What I see I have 4 Choices

1) Fully hardwired Kit (expensive)

2) visor mounted or cigarette socket plug and go style kits.(are they any good)

3) Headset style (not a big fan of these as keep falling out)

4) Lose my licence (not a good Idea)

[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] MaskedMarauder:
You can buy a hardwire kit for about £35 for a second hand Nokia C7K, wiring it is easy, it is only 3 or 4 wires. Less if your car has a car kit plug on the loom, but you will need the adaptor kit for that.

They won't charge the phone though, or provide a cradle.

That means that my Siemens wired kit is going spare - I'm going to put it on ebay soon, but if anyone wants to contect me first... just a three wire conenct, and I've got an ISO through connector to connect at the back of the car stereo, so you don't need to cut any car wires, then stick the display on your dash, route the microphone to near your sunvisor and leave the little but very clear speaker inthe footwell or under the glovebox...

We've got Nokia CK7W's in our cars at work, and myself and other orbit users have no problems with them at all.

[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] TangerineTractor:
It's as good as any car kit I've ever had - and that included professionally fitted kits and factory fitted car kits.

Because the mic's in the front of the unit rathe rthan up by the top of the windscreen, you get far less issues at speed with wind noise etc too. Highly recommended.

I use a £59 Parrott CK3000 with my HTC Himalaya and my new P3300 in my Audi A3 and its great. Connected it into the back of my radio with just three (Tel+ Tel- & Tel Mute) connections and it mutes the radio and plays through the speakers just like a factory fitted unit.

When I used the same unit in my previous Alfa 156, you could even adjust the call volume using the steering wheel audio controls (but my Audi doesn't have that feature).

For the A3 and other vehicles with "multi-function steering wheels", Parrott even do adapters so that you can use the steering wheel buttins to answer & close a call, rather than having to have a separate non-standard button showing on the dash....

Parrot is excellent

The Parrot CK3000 is nice if you don't need a screen. It's very stealth - just a small controller with "talk" and "end" buttons and a volume dial in the middle. (I have an Audi A4 and don't have space for a screen) Very easy to install (like the CK3100) because it uses the ISO connectors. Even if you car doesn't use ISO standard, you can always splice the wires or buy adapers if you don't want to splice. The sound quality is excellent, the functions are very basic but very reliable (however, I've only used the kit as a headset - never added additional voice tags and all that). It just works and it works well. You can get them from Amazon.com for less than $100 USD. Even less in eruos.
[P3300, MDA Compact III  Accessories] rkde:
Got the P3300 and I can't fault it. The quality of the system is excellent, sound and mic work very well and the system is easy to use. Easy to wire in and I have my steering wheel controls connected.

I have seen some with problems, the soldering for the display has been a little thin on some models but nothing I couldn't fix.

I have noticed that sometimes when I answer with the phone button (on the phone) the parrot goes into mute, my advice would be either auto answer or pick up using the parrot. Could just be my setup...
