If you download Avast Cleanup from the play store it will clean garbage files off your phone. When I installed it, it cleaned 2GB off of my phone that I am free to use now. I love it! It doesn't erase anything like music or app data, just stuff nothing on your phone uses!

Hi friends !

I have a serious problem with my sister's desire 816 dual sim. when we got the phone the bootloader was unlocked and i try to re-lock the bootloader but when i do this the device can not turn on, it stucks in bootloader , can not factory reset can not restart the device can not do anything just stuck in bootloader all the time.

please help me please and sorry for my english
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seekfind:
If you bought it new, with bootloader unlocked ( usually comes together with S-OFF), I suggest not relocking the bootloader. those devices are modded; so they won't act like normally unlocked phones.

to restart, connect to cpmputer and type "fastboot reboot-bootloader"
[Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dj_muncher:
I did this but the phone doesnt turn on. When restart after re-lockiing the bootloader it directly enters to bootloader..I bougt it new but S-ON. The phone is Chinese and the carrier did this i think because some chinise programs on the device. I think I need stock rom zip and upgrade from bootloader but i could find it any where. I did this to my m8 and worked perfectly.

Hello everyone .

This morning I was working as normal on my Note n7000 with official stock rom JB 4.1.2 UAE , I was taking some photos , the battery was low , and then he just stopped working , I plug it into charger until 100 % then tried to start it but stays on the Samsung's logo !

I tried to pass the official rom again using odin but the same problem it stays on the Samsung's logo .

only download mode is working , recovery mode shows the green android logo and after that restart to the 1st situation again.

I felt tired and just removed the battery from the phone and let it like that ( did not mean to do that ) and after about 1 hour I turned on the phone and the problem was solved by itself ! But how ?

and what that means ? is that going to happen again ?

what should I do ?

Android bug: MMS attack affects 'one billion' phones - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-33689399

Can the patch be manually downloaded from somewhere and manually installed in rooted phones? Where?

Prefer to not go the OTA route because I am rooted and use xposed framework.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doitda:
Is the patch issued out and available by Google yet?

Running Cataclysm, but don't see an update for it yet for the MMS bug.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chdloc:
Patched stagefright libraries for AOSP 5.1.1

For those who are interested: I patched AOSP 5.1.1 (LMY48B) with the code changes that were submitted to CM by the researcher who detected the flaw, see e.g. here. The attached archive contains the 17 (!) modified libraries. I just pushed the files to my device running stock 5.1.1 and it boots fine. I do not not have any information on whether the patch actually does what it is supposed to do or whether the new libs result in breakage somewhere else.

Update: added three additional patches to libstagefright submitted to CM by the same security researcher (jduck) as detailed here.

Update (August 14): added latest stagefright vulnerability patch as described here
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wangdaning:
From what I have read this should not really affect our devices. It is more older devices that have issues.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chdloc:
Well, from what I've read/seen it appears that the Nexus 5 on 5.1.1 is fully exploitable. However, sandboxing and "address space layout randomization" make it a lot more difficult to actually achieve anything with the exploit, but the probability is not zero. We will probably know more after the hacker conference next week.

Note that I have updated the patched libraries that I attached to my previous post. In the update I added three additional patches to libstagefright that have been submitted to CM by the security researcher who has found the exploit back in April, see here
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
Added the patched libs and my phone didn't blow up so that's a good sign. Too bad there isn't a good way to test it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
Is the rooted nexus 5 on 4.4.4 (with xposed) any safer?

How to sandbox? Is there an app for that?

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
A rooted device is less secure than a non-rooted device. A device with Xposed is theoretically less secure than that.

Application sandboxing is done by default in Android.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
Just an fyi; if you're waiting for your rom to be updated, swapping in these patched libs will close the hole (at least according to zImperium's Stagefright check app).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chdloc:
FYI, added latest stagefright vulnerability patch as described here to post #3.

As before, you need to push the libraries manually to /system/lib/, followed by an adjustment of permissions (644), if required.

The latest Zimperium Stagefright Detector app, updated today, returns "not vulnerable" to the (as of today) seven known security vulnerabilities of stagefright.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
Works like a charm... until the next hole is discovered. :p
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eris170:
Thanks so much for doing this! I've unzipped these to Dirty Unicorns OFFICIAL-v9.5 (5.1.1) and things appear to be booting/running OK. Zimperium detector also says everything is now good.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] persianrisk:
I am on rooted nexus 5, version 5.1.1

By manually pushing it do you mean through custom recovery or for example by using flashify app to flash the file, or directly copy pasting it?

And by adjusting permission if required, can you explain how that is done?

Thank you
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
+1

Are they the same patches for 4.4.4?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chdloc:
To be safe, backup your device before proceeding.

By "pushing files to phone" I mean unpack the archive attached to the third post in this thread and manually copy the resulting files to your device by either using

adb push [...]

or (assuming you use Windows on your host machine)

Explorer

to copy all files to the "sdcard" on your phone.

Then use a file explorer on your phone, such as Root Explorer, to copy the files into place, i.e. /system/lib/

To adjust permissions, again, use the file explorer on your device to verify the "permissions" property of each of the new files. If you don't see rw-r--r, or 644, adjust the permissions appropriately.

No, the patched files posted in the third post of this thread were built on Android (AOSP) 5.1.1. They will not work on KitKat.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
Are there similar patched files for 4.4.4?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
Unless patches are forthcoming from Google, I don't think there will be. KK development is essentially dead.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] persianrisk:
Thank you very much. I followed your steps (used Root Explorer as ES File Manager did not work).

When I run Stage fright detector App by Zimperium INC. and the one by Michael Kohl it says that I am not vulnerable.

But, when I run the one by LookOut Security says I am vulnerable. Any thoughts?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Anderson2:
OK, I guess I will move to 5.1.1. May sound easy to pros like you but it's a scary step to users like me. ?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0087:
Sounds like using Titanium backup is the cause of this. You may need to flash your stock firmware, if this is even an option yet for this new device. Did you not make a backup of stock? Or is custom recovery even available yet? Anyway, you could ask for further assistance in your device's specific help forum here:

Hi guys,

Looking to buy HAM7...why in your opinions are major good and bad points?

I've read the reviews but you know there are always kinks here and there that don show up on reviews?

My biggest concern is: Battery life and snappy flow of OS without stutter, each stutter makes.my heart skip a beat...wht is your feedback on it?

I'm coming from zenfone6, I liked it but lost it.

There aren't any other 6 inch phones, nexus 6 is bit expensive and ive heard bad stuff about its battery.

Thanks for your feedback
[Ascend Mate 7 General] phrozenflame:
Oh and also browisng, how is that?

Yes the phone is awesome. It's got an awesome built in battery monitoring app, backup app as good as titanium and its fluid. If you want more power you could set it to a "high performance mode".

Just bought one, screen of my LG g3 broken. It beats g3 on every point; great battery life (actually my first handheld that goes - much more- than a day with a charge, much faster than g3, browsing gaming is much better.

And as for updates; I really don't miss the lollipop of the g3 at all.

As prices are quite affordable now, I should say, go and get it!

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] wokmichel:
Hello all, your forum is very useful and full of dedicated people.

I am sorry if my question is redundant, I know there has been threads about this topic already (like here) but I can't get the things described to work for me so my last resort is to start a thread of my own. Plus I think it might help others trying to get their M600/Prophet back on tracks.

Here is what happened with mine : an flash went wrong (error on the computer, stuck at 80% for a long long time (i mean long, not the usual few minutes we all know of)). So I had to unplug the whole thing and reset it. It went into the bootloader (3 colors screen) ok after the reset with USB written in the bottom left corner when plugged in. But (for no real l reason) I tried to reforce it in bootloader mode with Camera + Reset and from this point on, it never booted again, never reacted to any manpipulation (Power + Reset, Power long, Camera + Reset), it doesnt even has the LED on when the wall charger is plugged in.

I searched the forum and found links like the one reported earlier in this post or this one here

So I tried those but can't get it to work cus I don't really think i understand what to do :

Here is what i did :

I plugged the cut wall charger that now looks like this :

and this :

now when it's said to connect the charger direcly to the pins are we talking about those pins ? and if yes, which one are the 1 and 5 ? the red ones or the green ones ? I know the white wire (+) has to go on the 1st pin but I dont know which one is the 1st.

plus, do i have to connect the wires to those pins while the battery is also plugged in or when the battery is out ? Or even with another charger plugged in?

Once the manipulation is done, do I put the batter back in and it should start ok directly in bootloader mode ? Or do i need to plug it back into the wall so that it does.

Anyways, as you can see that shorting manipulation is really unclear to me and I did not manage to make it work.

If anyone could shed some light on this one, that would really help me out and I am sure it would help others as well.

Thx in advance for your answers.

Hi ,

I have been reading a lot on xda developers about how to root,back up and flash a custom rom. I Successfully rooted my phone and got the supersu app too . I downloaded a few apps like greenify and fullscreen to test the waters of rooting . I also downloaded rom manager , TWRP & helium . Everything was going smooth when i was trying to make a back up from rom manager it wasnt letting me and phone would just reboot when i tried .

Then i was getting a little restless and tried to work on TWRP to install a recovery and an option that was on top of install a recovery . It gave me few options to which i said yes ( something related to back up in sd card ) . Then it asked me to press yes to reboot and since then my phone gets stuck at the samsung logo screen and if i press volume down + power + home then it gives me a screen where it says " downloading... do not turn off target !!" . On this screen the current binary is custom and so is the system status .

No other key combination that i know of is working .

PLEASE HELP .

Hello everybody,

I made this account specifically for this one problem, and i don't belive i've seen it before on this site. Alright, let me cut to the chase:I've had a Galaxy Trend plus for about a year and a half now (an oldie but a goodie) and i use it as my daily driver, mostly for emulators and WiFi. With one of those two knocked out, i'm desperate for help.

Okay, so all of a sudden it displays the no connection icon like a crossed circle thingy, and whenever i turn on WiFi, it won't detect it even 10 inches from the router. I've never had this error and i'm pretty concerned. My SIM card works on my friends phone, however. I've looked everything there is to look up, and i've done everything software-wise , which makes me think it's a hardware problem. If it is, is it under the warranty or not?If I can't make phone calls or browse the Interwebs, the phone is pretty much useless. If you guys have any suggestions or ideas, please help out an old Android fanboy

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

I have a question about the best way to manage an Android software project that will involve modifying core Android code.

My question is not a normal "how to do this in Android", but rather, concerns the code management process and the build procedure. Has anyone any experience with this, or can point me somewhere?

We are starting a project to implement an audio application on Android phones, the various ARM architectural flavours. This will involve modifying and extending the C/C++ code in the Media Framework library, plus some supporting Java code. In other words, relative to the complete Android codebase, the amount of code that will be affected is quite small. We will need to support various Android versions and various phone manufacturers and models per manufacturer. Our development process concerns using the pure AOSP as a basis, and initially targeting the Google Nexus as a reference platform. After that, customisations needed for real-world phones will be done in cooperation with the phone manufacturers.

From a code management viewpoint, my idea was to maintain a git repository for our Media Framework files, that will be branched for each maintained version of Android. Separately, we will check out from the Google AOSP repository the code for each supported version of Android, and overlay/merge our Media Framework code onto this codebase. The resulting codebase for each version of Android will be built targeted to the range of Android phones that we support, initially the reference Google Nexus.

Some development approaches that come to mind:

- For each Android version, we could patch Android's Media Framework with our code, and then maintain the entire merged AOSP in a local git repository. This would be a huge undertaking, when branches are included, but would at least guarantee that the codebase is always up to date. Howoever, merging our code changes across difference Android versions would be difficult.

- Another option is to only maintain our Media Framework files in a local git repository, branched for each Android version. Before building a specific Android version,we could checkout the Android version from the Google repository (or keep it cached locally on our build system or on developers' machines) and then patch Android's Media Framework files with our files.

Many thanks,

polomora
