[Moto E General] nilanko:
A possible root cause of the system not booting and stuck at boot logo after flashing 5.1 stock firmware has been found. 5.1 stock firmware contains system image divided into

4

parts (0,1,2,3) whereas 4.4.4 firmware had only 3 (0,1,2).

If the 4th part (system.img_sparsechunk.3) isn't flashed then the system partition won't be complete and hence system won't boot for obvious reasons

. It's pretty much self explanatory that if you have a 4th part of the system image, you have to flash that too in order to complete the system partition. Anyways, hope this helps someone out there.

So the commands would be:

----------------

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2

mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3

----------------

Anybody know if the Jabra BT350 supports MS Voice Command? Thanks in advance.
[General Accessories] anothersmith:
I have a Jabra BT150...picked up on Woot a couple weeks ago. It works with VC using my wizard. I can initiate the VC from the earpiece and it works fine.

However, for some reason my Hermes (8525) the BT150 will initiate the VC but not play it through the earphone, It play through the speaker, when the call rings then you can hear it in the earpiece...Must be something with the bluetooth stacks? Both are WM6.

The only way is to flash any .ftf of any Android version for your phone. Be sure to select all the 3 wipes and the other 2 options (no final verification and reset customizations) That will clear everything. The microSD will not be touched in any way nor the micro SIM card.

Hi, Glad to help!! :)

The file you need will be mirrored for your convenience

Flashable Version Here : https://www.dropbox.com/s/3e1glbph00y6vfs/Z2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.21-RELEASE.flashable.zip?dl=0

Installer Version (You need a PC for this (this can be used if you cannot flash the above file)) <<<<<<< I recommend this one

https://www.dropbox.com/s/5jnx1dswl1idcry/Z2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.21-RELEASE.installer.zip?dl=0

1. There is no egypt version so. it doesnt matter it will still work so download this after you have recovery installed. rom file :https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5DlGMq6XYFWYzZVemdjcHdkVW8/view

when your phone boots up and you see the led colours press volume down(repeatadly) for twrp recovery press install and locate the rom file and swipe to confirm flash.

after the rom zip is installed flash the nut recovery *zip* so you can read/write to the system for proper root

There u go bud

[Chromebooks] exdiei:
I just got a new Chromebook and I was reading about the Smart Lock feature which can only be used with a Lollipop phone, which I don't have. I only have CM 11, and don't want to flash Lollipop yet on it. Is there any way to make Chromebook's Smart Lock work with a KitKat CM ROM?

I've only found about apps that lock your phone when in diferent enviroments or when connected to trusted devices, but don't know i it will work with a Chromebook's smart Lock feature.

Anybody knows a workaround or a port of the Smart Lock Lollippop's version but works on KitKat?.

Am I really wrong to assume that these Smart Lock apps on XDA or Google play will work with a Chromebook?

I had tried it a looong time ago, but when you have a 2mp cam compared to the 1.3mp on the front I think it is, its not really prudent to even mess with taking pics with it.

I could be wrong on the name of the app, and even the specs on the front cam.

you`ll need a torx and a philips.

Use of camera in WM6

Hi,

Has anybody else solved that problem with camera? When I make a video call I can see the other party but my camera is "dead". I'm not able to switch to the back camera... the window is black. If I start the "camera" for pictures immediately after the video failed, the photo camera does not work. Then I close and restart the photo camera and then it works.

So the video calls work only in one direction - incoming.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

the cable is connected to the from camera, it sits next to the explorer button on the top.

how can you not find it?(turn the device over and find the camera, then turn it over again and find the cable and the camera from the inside)

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] KakunaRattata:
Sorry if this is basic knowledge here, I'm just incredibly new to the kindle fire scene and don't know a thing about it. What I do know is that I have a kindle fire HDX (3rd generation) that's on 4.5.4 . The thing is that I want to root it, but there's no root out for it, so I'd rather just downgrade to 3.2.8 and upgrade to 4.5.2. I just have 1 more question: is the root tethered? That may not be the right terminology, but what I meant was, if the device dies, do I need to connect it to a pc to boot it?

I'm sure these things have been asked many times, I'm sorry, I just really would appreciate some direct help. Thanks in advance!!
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
7" HDX = Thor

8.9" HDX w/2.2 GHz processor = Apollo

8.9" HDX w 2.5 GHz processor = Saturn (can not be rolled back)

Rolling back to 3.2.8 is risky. A misstep can lead to a hard brick (non-recoverable). You can find more info here. I suggest you wait for an exploit that will allow rooting 4.5.4+. HDX devices are unlike most other 'android devices'. Tough to tame and easy to brick. Standard recovery techniques don't work (eg: so called 'factory cables'). If you pursue tweaking be mentally prepared to toss your device in the trash if something goes wrong. A quick glance through the forums will provide further evidence. Good luck.

Asus ZenPad S 8.0 (Z580C) Rooted...Now looking for latest stock Android

After several attempts, and several failures (all following directions (given by different people, I might add), I was finally able to root the recently-released Asus ZenPad S 8.0 (Z580C, not the yet-to-be-released Z580CA-C). I have also pre-ordered the higher-end (ie. Z580CA-C version), but that one I am not planning on rooting. The purpose for rooting the Z580C is so that I can use it as a dedicated tablet for controlling my Phantom 3 Professional (replacing the Nexus 7 LTE, which I've been using).

Now comes the next step...and next problem...with this, which is where I'm looking for help. I'd prefer to not use the Android OS, ZenUI launcher, etc, as installed by Asus. What I want is pure Android...essentially turning the ZenPad S 8.0 into an Asus version of a Nexus tablet (considering Asus manufactured the Nexus 7 tablets, this isn't much of a stretch). The last time I rooted an Android tablet was in rooting my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition), and only so I could pair a PS3 controller with it. The only other time I've rooted (and, in this case, installed a custom OS) an Android device was when I rooted, and then installed CyanogenMod, on my HTC Hero...and only because HTC, after promising the next version of Android would be coming to the Hero, they revoked that, forcing most people into purchasing a new phone.

Has anyone come up with a way to install...preferably stock Android...the latest version of Android on the Asus ZenPad S 8.0 Z580C? If so, any assistance in helping me get it installed on my ZenPad S would be greatly appreciated.

Caution to Z580CA Users

If you're on the Z580CA, DO NOT attempt to install the Xposed framework for x86. Doing so causes the device to think its storage is full and requires "upgrade" on every boot. I attempted to wipe my cache and now I'm stuck in a bootloop...ughh

UPDATE: Woo! Going nearly insane here! It's been a weird chain of events but somehow I got Xposed running.

1. Root Z580CA using the method on the main part of this thread

2. Download and install the Xposed Installer (v71, SDK21).

3. Download Xposed Framework for x86 and flash using CWM.

4. Wipe Cache (WAIT, even if it looks like it's frozen).
