roms have to be 100% custom made for a surden device for it to work

some people have been porting roms (well parts of roms really)

from 1 device type to another but it takes up to many months to do

and require them to have the device in question

and may end up being impossible

so if you cant find anything from google or this sites search function

it's not likely ever to happen

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brummbeere:
Hello,

I'm trying to prevent Google Play/Android Market from updating itself because my phone is really low on space and the newer versions of Google Play are so big that they constantly make it impossible to update any other apps because I'm running out of space (Galaxy Ace S5830).

I'm aware of the

touch /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk
chattr +i /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk

solution, however it doesn't work for me because chattr is telling me:

Inappropriate ioctl for device

I would think that means the underlying filesystem simply doesn't support the immutable option (Android version is Gingerbread.XWKTQ 2.3.6). Is there any other way I can prevent Google Play automatically updating itself? Is there maybe a patched version that I can put on the phone to replace the original one? Or can you think of any other hacks, like would it be possible to mount /data/app as readonly?

Edit:

It seems like this could do the trick (tried it with another file at least and I couldn't rm it as root)

mount -o bind /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk
mount -o remount,bind,ro /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk

Where would I best put these commands so that they are executed automatically on startup?

thanks!

I have a wallet case with a magnet in it and when I wrap one side to the back of the phone I get this annoying sound.

youtube link: /watch?v=Whl31v7fKIo

I thought it was a docking sound because of the magnet in the case, but i removed all the suspected sounds from system/media/ui, but I still keep getting it :(

If anyone knows what this sound is and where it is so I can remove it, I will be eternally grateful.

No idea but for information purposes, the wireless charging sound (which is different to this) if you remove it, still plays. You have to replace it with a silent .ogg file.

[Android Apps and Games] Side Effect:
Hello,

I am a game developer from Poland. I would like to present Globe Master, a geography game with simple concept and (correct me if I am wrong) good playability. I made the game in Unity3D and you play on the 3D Globe, seeing the Earth as it really is - not a simple flat map everyone is accustomed to.

The game is about finding various places on Earth (capitals, cities, UNESCO world heritage sites, mountains etc). You start with 1000km error buffer and you play as long the buffer is not empty (each mistake is deducted from this buffer). After every round (5 locations), you get extra distance to the buffer, to keep you alive. The places to find get more and more difficult.

I hope some players from other continents (America, Australia, Asia) may let me know if the difficulty of various places is not skewed by my European viewpoint!. I hope you like it!

You will find GLOBE MASTER on PLAY STORE

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xphunt3r:
My brother purchased Samsung Galaxy Tab S (SM-CTC705) from Dubai and it is still in warranty for upto Feb 2017. I lived in India and he gave it to me. During playing online multiplayer game, the tab suddenly get hanged and does not get switch off. So I did soft reset by using Power + Volume Down button, then it restarted. Since then it is hanging a lot and get restart time to time. I tried almost all possible method and they are:

1. Power off for 20 sec.

2. Power + Volume volume.

3. Clear cache

4. Factory reset.

5. Reset via recovery mode.

6. Update to lollypop OS.

None of the above method worked for me.

There is another unique problem I have that when going into recovery mode (Home+Volume Up + Power), the option for recovery does not show but using volume bottom I can reset cache and format it. This unique problem I am facing. During formatting, I am getting one more error while wiping all data using recovery mode:

formatting /sbfs...

E: unknown volume for path [/sbfs]

E: unknown volume "/sbfs"

Data wipe complete.

As I am in India so I visit Samsung service center to repair it but they refuse to take it and told that they won't support the device purchased from foreign country. Now I have only one option is to send device back to Dubai to my brother. I am no idea what to do now. I am if you guys can help me to solve this problem.

Thanks
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
There is no option called recovery. Recovery is what the mode is called when you boot using POWER + VOL UP + HOME.

The sbfs error is normal and can be ignored.

Your issue is usually related to a loose battery connector.

1. how to delete all contacts in one go? as I am going to pass my XDA orbit to someone else after removing all my personal contact. But i want to keep all the installed program. therefore, i want to know is there any way without hard reset?

2. how to reset call duration statistic each month? as i want to keep track of my bill.

thx in advance!
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eagle 1:
1) Rename pim.vol and then soft reset. then delete the renamed pim.vol..unless your contacts are on sim.

2) not sure there is a way to reset call duration with native app. Some third party apps, track specific time frames..but you do know that the call duration times will not match your bill, right? Bills usually round up for each call.. Some companies round up to the next minute, some to next 30 second or 15 second mark..so it really won't match anyway

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] apd:
This one was dealt with qiute a few times in the Uni forum. Basically, the answer is (a) it's very difficult and (b) noone should show you how to do it. Although you want it for legitimate purposes, most people don't (i.e. passing a used phone off as new).

The simple answer is to take a note of the stats every month or check online if your provider allows it.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Techno79:
I purchased a Nexus 5 32GB mobile in November 2014 from Expedite Electronics. It has recently stopped charging via wireless charging and wired charging is occasionally temperamental. I contacted LG directly to enquire about a repair under warranty. They informed me that all 32GB Nexus 5 devices sold in the UK (regardless of who or where they were sold from) are not UK spec. I was told the particular one I have is a United Arab Emirates model. He then said that it's not a problem and that I was still covered under warranty but if the main board was found to be at fault and needed replacing then they would only be able to repair this with the 16GB model as this is the only UK spec version they offer.

I asked them what about 32GB devices sold through Amazon and Google Play and was told that they would have the same issue. I was also told that it wasn't specific for the Nexus 5 either and it was the same for the LG G2 and LG G3 devices as well.

It feels very wrong to me. Does this seem right to anyone else?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kirmr:

Help Needed!

Recently read some tutorials on XDA about setting up a build environment. I've got all that set up, repos synced, correct java version, required packages, device trees, kernel, etc, but I always run into errors while building. The most frustrating thing is that it's always different errors. Everytime I resolve one, a different one occurs. I've been googling for days but it's pretty difficult finding any answers for such specific errors. To clarify, I'm trying to build SlimLP and LiquidSmoothLP for the N7105. My build system is Ubuntu 15.04 x64 bit (Not a VM). At least three times I've started over from scratch (redownloading source, device trees, etc) and it's so time consuming, but I don't wanna give up. So if someone could help me I'd greatly appreciate it.

I recently purchased an SM-T900 and I'm a little confused about what voids the warranty and prevents updates from Samsung.

Is this correct?

But thanks for your answer. If 5.1.1 didn't appear imminent, I'd try it your way.

Hi.

I want to playback sound from my Nexus 7 2013 (Flo) in a fixed install environment on a Mutli Channel USB Audio DAC. It is a 7.1 Channel device and has a CMedia CM6206 chip. I currently use the stock Android 5.1.1 build LMY47V.

From what I've read a multi channel source, e.g. a movie, should play fine, but the difficult part seems to be the spreading of stereo sound onto multiple channels. After reading through different articles related to ALSA I finally found an example configuration which does exactly what I need:

http://drona.csa.iisc.ernet.in/~uday/alsamch.shtml

Sadly it is for Linux Desktop Editions and Android seems to be quite different (Driver Layer, Configuration ...). After figuring that out I came across this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/themes-apps/mod-surround-sound-t2964809/post57310487

Where I finaly found the place the mixer configuration would probably go to. But now I'm stuck on translating the .acoundrc file into the right XML statements. This is where I want to ask the experts here on XDA Developers...

What I got so far:

- Device is rooted

- Alsa Mixer is installed

- Example .asoundrc

The USB DAC enumerats (with alsa_aplay -L) as "default:CARD=Device" or as (with alsa_aplay -l) "card 1".

Hello guys,

I have just flashed CM12.1 on my note 4 and so far so good. Now I wanted to install the Gapps meant for CM12.1 that are provided on the cyanogen website.

First question: there are three versions offered: ARM, ARM64, and X86. Which one do I need to use on the Note 4 snapdragon?

Anyways, not knowing which one to use I downloaded all three and tried to flash then over TWRP. For all three versions I get a Failed message.

"Check for MD5... MD5 not found... Error flashing zip"

Do you guys know how to install it? And also, are the gapps provided by CM special in any way? Maybe more tailored for CM12.1?

I did install Gapps from CM12 has they have only one version and it flashed. But I keep getting those nasty app crashes that make the phone unusable.

Thanks in advance for the help.
