If you are in M-preview-1 and don't want to lose your dat/apps you can follow this guide, after that, you'll havw M-preview-2 installed and a rooted device.

Firstly, you need to have a pc with adb working. There are several wyas to achive that, but I presume that if you are already in M preview V1, you have it.

Then, you need to have an unlocked bootloader, again I assume that you have it.

======Skip this is you have adb and unlocker bootloader===========

In any case, in linux there is a very trivial way to get both things (probably in windows and mac is more or less the same):

In a terminal:

sudo apt-get install android-tools*

Then plug your N5 to your computer with a usb cable (depuration mode enable), check that everything is working fine:

sudo adb devices

Then;

sudo adb reboot bootloader

sudo fastboot oem unlock

Then reboot

========================================================

Again, if you are not coming from M-preview-1 I do not recommend this method

1. Download M-preview-2 from this page.

2. Download twrp from here.

3. Create a folder, move twrp to that folder and extract M-preview-2 to the same folder (no sudir, all the files in the same folder), extract again image-hammerhead-MPZ79M.zip in the same folder.

4. Download Despair kernel in your device.

5. Download SuperSU beta 2.49 in your device.

Now, we are ready to flash everything:

6. Open a terminal and cd to the folder where you keep everything from previous steps.

7. Plug your device using a usb cable

8. Type the following commands in the terminal (if you are not in Linux, use the same commands but without "sudo"):

sudo device (just to check that adb ·see your device)

sudo adb reboot bootloader

sudo fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-hammerhead-HHZ12h.img

sudo fastboot flash boot boot.img

sudo fastboot flash radio radio-hammerhead-M8974A-2.0.50.2.26.img

sudo fastboot flash system system.img (this step takes a while)

sudo fastboot flash cache cache.img

sudo fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.1-hammerhead.img

9. Reboot in recovery (just using the vol up or down and the on buttom).

10. Flash Despair kernel

11. Flash SuperSU

12 Wipe Dalvik and cahe (just in case)

13. Reboot

Flashing over preview 1 won't bring additional issues?
[Nexus 5 General] xdaalmar:
Of course II'm still testing, but it seems that there is not new bugs (yet).
[Nexus 5 General] TonyHoyle:
All I did was edit flash-all.sh, removed the '-w', then run it Anyone who has flashed the first version will already have the tools installed.

I wouldn't recommend using alternate kernels as they won't be designed for preview 2.
[Nexus 5 General] tugler:
does your guys system app crash if you open data usage (set language to something except english) ?
[Nexus 5 General] xdaalmar:
Yes
[Nexus 5 General] SketchyStunts:
I just did a clean flash via fastboot manually. Booting now. I ain't got time for issues.
[Nexus 5 General] vaindil:
Is there a reason the OP links to TWRP 2.8.6.1 instead of the latest version (2.8.7.1)?
[Nexus 5 General] 6spdsc4:
Anyone else having trouble flashing the despair kernel? I'm getting assert failed: getprop("ro.product.devices") (Status 7) when trying to flash. I tried sideloading and got the same errors followed by E: Error in /tmp/update.zip. Clearly I'm doing something wrong. Any ideas?
[Nexus 5 General] vaindil:
I'm still transferring my nandroid backup to my PC and haven't tried yet, but it's possible that the kernel won't flash on preview 2 because it's not yet updated for preview 2. As [MENTION=1608898]TonyHoyle[/MENTION] said, it's probably not a great idea to use one until they've specifically been updated for preview 2.
[Nexus 5 General] mosd:
can u explain more detailed?
[Nexus 5 General] xsaxsaxsa:
Flashable zip for multirom

flashable zip to use with multirom, please ? :D
[Nexus 5 General] NPS_CA:
As TonyHole suggested, just remove the -w; basically this will do: (you can do below on a command line as long as you are in the extracted TGZ file and in the hammerhead-MPZ79M folder/directory)

fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-hammerhead-HHZ12h.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot flash radio radio-hammerhead-M8974A-2.0.50.2.26.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

fastboot update image-hammerhead-MPZ79M.zip

This works for me no issues as data is left intact but everything else is updated ; suggesting NOT to do this from an Android L to Android M Preview 2 and do a proper wipe

This will rebuild the ART app optimize on reboot

OP: Next time make a guide for doing STOCK update FIRST ; save the kernel and root for a SEPERATE post or a seperate section in the post
[Nexus 5 General] piperx:
Hellscore kernel works great ;)

Clean flash

I don't understand why any one would do a dirty dirty install with a preview no less

Sent from my Nexus 5 xda-dev app
[Nexus 5 General] NPS_CA:
The OTA is out and it will do the same process end result as the dirty flash method I did, keeps Data and app rebuild on reboot.

Yeah I was asking about the official OTA. Since only the link for Shamu was captured so far.

Surely if you go about phone. System update. Then you'll either have it or not if it's been pushed out to your device?

[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nuukee:
Hi,

Monday my wife cracked her Z1 compact display, so I bought a new one and replaced it, phone is working fine again.

But, after the fact, I thought.......might it be possible to use a display from the z3 compact instead? They should have the same size, but the z3 display provides much more screen space.

Anyone tried this?

I am sure she will crack it again so I could try it next time
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iamdude:
Compare detailed photos of z1c/z3c displays. I think, they have a different connection wires.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hifiaudio2:
I have an unlocked Nexus 6 64gb from Ebay that I activated on Verizon. I rooted it, installed 5.1 and did the build.prop and settings.db changes and have tethering, etc (unlimited).

A few questions:

Will the OTA update show up on my phone since it is rooted and/or since it was not purchased from Verizon?

If it does show up and I let it update to 5.1.1, will I need to do the build.prop and settings.db changes again?

If it does not show up and I install from Google's image, do I need to do the build.prop and settings.db changes again?

I am sure these are basic questions... sorry... this was my first phone root and will be my first update to apply since doing that.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
an update will show up whether you have root or not, BUT.. you can not take or apply an ota if any system files have been changed. and guess what rooting your device did, change system files.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hifiaudio2:
Ok thanks. So that means I update with the Google Image if I want to. I think there is an option to do that without a wipe. Is that recommended / OK? If so, I wont have to change any files again, right?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
factory image, or any custom rom. and yes, you can update via factory image and do it a certain way to not lose data. you dont ever "have to" change any files. if you keep it stock, completely, you get an update ota, and you keep goung after that. if you root, tou have choices. i keep my choices simple. i root and use custom kernels btw. i also use custom roms. so, for me, updating is just flashing the latest custom rom(be it stock/rooted or real cutom rom).
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hifiaudio2:
Thanks again for the help. So my wife has the exact phone and same root with hotspot enabled as I do. I forgot to tell her to ignore the update, so when the OTA verizon update showed up this morning, she installed it. Her phone still says 5.1, so I assume it just tried to install but didnt work, but the Hotspot icon was removed (I just went into settings and selected it again, and it seemed to work still), but I dont know what error it might have given when she tried to install or what settings or files that I had changed, like build.prop, etc, might be changed back. Is it likely that the system trying to install the OTA update would have changed my modified settings?

Going forward, I plan to fire up Wug's rootkit and just flash the 5.1.1 image with no wipe. SO everything I did on both phones should already be ready to go when the flash finishes, right? No settings for me to change all over again?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prdog1:
Will have to redo the build.prop edits. Full image flash will replace the build.prop with new one. :cool:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hifiaudio2:
Cool, all done, thanks.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddyo1993:
Does anyone know if the developer edition note 4 has its downloadbooster unblocked? I'm planning on buying it soon
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nahoku:
That's a curious question. Why would download booster be blocked on a dev edition? Download booster is just an option on the phone that allows large files to be downloaded faster by using both Wifi and LTE networks at the same time. I wouldn't imagine they would block it for any reason on the dev edition.

Are you perhaps wondering if the dev edition has an unlocked bootloader?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddyo1993:
No I know the bootloader is unlocked it's that I heard Verizon hid download booster on note 4 as well , unless I was misinformed, so I was curious to know if dev edition would be the same
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] outcasted2003:

Hello guys,

My port where the pins are on the board is broken somehow when i dropped my xperia Z

And now i can't connect the battery in its original way

Is there anyway that i can fix it ? or maybe connect the battery straight to the board?

I noticed on the battery 4 ports covered with yellow stripes , and on the main board, i can notice 4 silver circles that i would say they are related to the battery. Is there anyway that i can connect them directly using a cable ( each pin to a circle ) and how?

I need it working because i have alot of data and im afraid i'll lose them

Thanks :o

.::TouchWiz Launchers [SE Version]::.

.::Intro ::.

I have love& hate relationship with Samsung TouchWiz launchers. I like it because most of Samsung apps, widgets plays quite nicely, I hate it when it sluggish, heavy, and not much customization (Finally Samsung realized theming option, so they are bringing themes to newest devices). I tried to make every effort to increase smoothness of these launchers, and faster when moving once screen to another. However, the more apps you have, the more widgets you have, means when you open widgets, it takes a few sec. It is also no brainier that more apps you have, the slowest sluggish tablet gets, so don't blame the launchers nor ROM itself.

The ROM comes with TouchWiz MagazineUX Launcher installed as default, however you will have flexibility and options to use different version of TouchWiz Launchers listed here below in this ROM.

Don't think that all Samsung TouchWiz launcher works out of box; all these TouchWiz Launchers listed here below specially moded/edited/ported by me to work on this ROM. Keep in mind that these TouchWiz launcher DPI dependent, means moded/resized to work 160 DPI as this ROM based on - Do NOT ask me to re-mode it for different DPI.

.::Install Instruction ::.

When you want to switch to different TouchWiz launcher, you need to follow these instruction very carefully as this requires manually copying files..etc. Also, ROM has Asus ZenUI launcher as backup, in case you screw up, there's launcher, so you won't get crashed the tablet!

If you want to use different TouchWiz launcher, first download the one you want to your tablet, and follow these steps below;

First make sure, you do NOT uninstall Asus ZenUI launcher, if you did, make sure you have 3rd party launcher (such Nova, Apex) on your system as backup

Go to your tablet's root system\priv-app, and delete current TouchWiz Launcher apk

Copy TouchWiz launcher you want to try, back to system\priv-app and give permission 644.

Reboot your tablet. Once it reboots, you may get TouchWiz stopped error,

this is NORMAL behaviour!

, so fix that, follow next step;

Go to Settings --> General --> Application Manager--> All --> and locate TouchWiz home, and click "Clear Data and Clear cache"

Reboot your tablet!, now you should be good go.

*Read!: Each time you switch to different TouchWiz launcher, you need to re-do these steps!, plus if you want to come back to Magazine UX launcher, you also need to clear data and cache for MagazineWidget, MagazineHome, and MagazineBriefingWidget apps too*
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
.::Accuweather Apps & Widgets for [SE Version]::.

.::Please read this first ::.

Please know that Accuweather Widgets are all depend on TouchWiz launcher's screen resolution, dpi..etc...also remember that Accuweather Widgets are not re-sizable (like other apps), go blame Samsung for that. Our TouchWiz launchers uses 8x6 - thus 8 columns and 6 rows, this is optimum setup for 160 DPI. Following Accuweather Widgets apps re-sized/moded to fit the screen nicely, and providing different size of Accuweather Widgets from different Samsung Tablets (Tab 4, Tab S, TabPro..etc) to pick.

.::Install Instruction ::.

If you want to switch to different Accuweather Widget apps below, you need to follow these instruction very carefully as this requires manually copying files..etc.

If you want to use different Accuweather Widget and diffrent size, first download the one you want to your tablet, and follow these steps below;

Go to your tablet's root system\app, and delete current Accuweather apk (search for "accuweather"),

do NOT delete WeatherDaemon2014!

Copy Accuweather app you want to try, back to system\app and give permission 644.

Reboot your tablet. Once it reboots, you may get Accuweather stopped error,

this is NORMAL behaviour!

, so fix that, follow next step (even if yo don't get error, do next step anyway to be safe);

Go to Settings --> General --> Application Manager--> All --> and locate Weather/or may called weather and briefing, and click "Clear Data and Clear cache"

Reboot your tablet!, once it reboots, go back to widgets screen and look for your new Accuweather widget.

*Read!: Each time you switch to different Accuweather app, you need to re-do these steps!*

.

.

...maybe I may have more Accuweather widgets stuff to post here, but what you guys got so far above is good enough to make you most of you happy!. .

.::Q&A::.

.::How can I improve battery life: Battery Saving Tips :::.

What I manage to save battery is to prevent wastage rather than restrict some services. Here are some suggestions;

As soon as you enter google account Click on google account again and select cancel Sync. Now select only option which you really need to sync.

Open wifi settings - advanced - uncheck 'Always scanning'

If not require (usually we do need high accuracy while navigation only) turn location access to Power Saving. (long press location in Quick panel to access it)

Open Settings - Permission manager - Location - Now look for applications mentioned under this tab and think really you needs to give location permission to all these app? If you find no location permission requires for any application just open and turn off location permission.

Again Settings-Permission manager - Device -- Now look each application and turn off Auto Run option if you think that application needs not to run at every boot. Here be careful and leave it as it if you are not sure what that app/service for what.

Check out this thread for optimizing your batter life even more: Extreme Battery Life Thread(Greenify+Amplify+Power Nap)

.::How can I improve windows animation and make it more smooth :::.

Go to Settings --> Developer Options, under Drawing, set these to, 0.5x

Window animation scale 0.5x

Transition animation scale 0.5x

Animator duration scale 0.5x

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
ROM comes with stock Note 8 camera - now, what you need to do is open it and see if its rotation looks OK, if it is not, try this fix (but skip the first step, since stock Note 8 camera is already in ROM), just do xposed step, once you did that, open it again and see if it looks all good..

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] glockman4519:
This is one awesome rom build. I had absolutely 0 issues on install and set up. Everything worked right out of the gate from the side widow for mufti widow use to the "S" pen air commands. I am an AOSP fan and have been running lollipop for some time now but when I saw that Gnabo was ported to the n5110 I had to give it a try. I am going to to keep it on for a while, at least on one of my n5110s.

My advice to anyone installing this rom is to follow the instructions in the OP and do not deviate from it. It wasn't that hard. I also left the rom sit for about 10 to 15 minutes before I even picked it up on the initial or very first boot after flashing the rom.

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] glockman4519:
The only thing I don't care for but can definitely work with it is the very small fonts. I don't want to mess the the dpi settings until I am comfortable with the way this runs and get a little more familiar with the UI and how a lot of my apps behave on this rom. Them I will play around with them and see if I can get it a bit more "older eyes friendly" lol...

"Chance Favors the Pepared"
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Android Development] jazzespresso:
yeah small fonts, I agreed...but it is DPI, which original Gnabo comes with 160 DPI, because ROM is depend on (work) 160DPI- considering Gnabo's 10.1 inch, and ours 8.0 inch....like I mentioned in OP, there's always something...
