Q&A for [MOD] CyanogenMod 11 on Verizon S4 in GSM mode (AT&T/T-Mobile)

Has anyone had any luck using CM12 in gsm mode? I saw the fix for 10 & 11 but it doesn't seem to work for 12. I'm on AT&T now and I can't hang up or receive calls.

I am using Sony Xperia Z3​.

Hi Chefs,

I want to cook a BigStorage/Light Edition of the new O2 Germany Rom. What should i do?

My my first thoughts: I extract the os.nb of the exe file, load it in the Rom Koch...OK, now, it's getting difficult...I want to remove for example Feedback, ringtones, example pics and vids, old office, games, windows live, homezone plugin etc. I don't know, which files i have to delete. Is there a list, which files belong to which programms?

Can i brick my phone, if i delete a wrong file?

Is it dangerous to flash my hermes with a selfcoocked rom (BADBLOCKS)?

Is that the right way to create a big storage rom?

What shouldnt i forget?

thnx

PS: pleas don't flame me...

Pello
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pello:
Nobody can me help a little? :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] walshieau:
if you have HardSPL as the bootloader before you flash and are just flashing OS only upgrades you should be ok...

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Hermes
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pello:
jepp...ok, thats nice, so i can try without bricking my hermes.

can i just delete the files without changing user/default registry/flashinitfiles?

Is there a documentation for which files belong to which app, for example WindowsLive?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] philjohn:
Windows live stuff is normally in directories called "WindowsLive*" inside the SYS folder.

Just play about, it's a fun way to learn and with HardSPL you shouldn't brick your device (for example I messed up a splash screen creation by not adding the padding required for the hermes. Looked horrible, didn't boot, but put it into three color bootloader screen and was able to flash a fixed version easily).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] mattk_r:
sorry I didn't reply in the other thread.

the software is somewhat modular - in that if you remove all of the Windows Live folders or Entertainment folders, you should remove all of that component.

Under /SYS/SQM is a .rgu file. The first entry is "Enabled"=dword:00000001. Change that to 00000000 to disable feedback.

Note that some kitchens uses an options.xml to allow BuildOS to determine what gets installed. The one for the files in /SYS uses a single one in /SYS.

I'd suggest grabbing a kitchen and following the directions. If you got HardSPL installed, and are careful, you should do well.

I "bricked" my phone twice in the first hour I started because I tried flashing a Wizard formated extended rom to the Hermes... gotta learn somehow :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] pello:
thnx mattk...

can i use the bepes rom kitchen or pandoras rom kitchen only with the included WM6Rom or can i swap the OEM,SYS Folders and the os.nb with the included?

What should i do with the XIP Folder?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirAristocat:
I may have gotten a little too overzealous and tried flashing a custom recovery (TWRP) before really researching if I had a locked bootloader first.

I'm sure I can reflash in Odin but I need the official firmware to do it.

Unfortunately nobody seems to have uploaded it anywhere.

Would anyone be able to upload it here?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Soapm:
have you tried this site? http://live.samsung-updates.com/index.php?device=SM-T807T
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
You only need the recovery.

If you can get into download mode, get someone to pull the image and then tar it up.

In fact I have the recovery from a t805, you could try that.

However seeing as these images won't be signed they may not flash.

I'm surprised odin didn't fail to flash a non signed image or did you flash it some other way?

You could also try kies/smart switch it has a firmware recovery mode.

---------- Post added at 09:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 AM ----------

Unfortunately there are no t807a firmwares available.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SirAristocat:
Well I already tried flashing the T805 recovery which, unfortunately, failed.

I also tried Kies and Smart Switch; Kies kept asking to check my model name and enter it, Smart Switch crashes after entering my S/N.

I've called Samsung Support, and they told me to take it to Best Buy to reflash it.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godzilla8nj:
I'm in the same boat. Flashing TWRP recovery tripped Knox on my t807a, so Best Buy wouldn't reflash it for me. Any luck for you?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godzilla8nj:
I'm on Linux trying to use Heimdall rather than Odin, which isn't working for me. But you might try flashing the factory recovery.img I uploaded here.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Did twrp successfully flash with odin even though it wont boot and can you still get download mode?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godzilla8nj:
I initially flashed TWRP with Heimdall. Since then I have been unable to use Heimdall to try flashing the stock recovery I linked. Not sure if that's a Heimdall issue, related to tripping Knox, or something else.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Heimdall, Linux or Windows?

Not sure how you managed to flash twrp with it as it doesn't even work with the Tab S. :what:

Where is the recovery you posted?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godzilla8nj:
Linux. I used the TWRP posted here for T805/T807.

Here is the stock recovery image I uploaded.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
I mean Heimdall doesn't work with the Tab S.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godzilla8nj:
I don't recall having to do anything special to get Heimdall to work. Downloaded and installed the latest for Ubuntu off GitHub. All I did was

sudo heimdall flash --recovery recovery.img

And as simple as that :good: bricked T807a.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Didn't you know you can't flash an unsigned bootloader, kernel or recovery on a bootloader locked device?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] godzilla8nj:
Honestly it's the first time I've had to deal with a bootloader-locked device. Never again.

Overview:

I’m a newbie to rebuild and compile a custom kernel. I like to learn new things and share with you my modified version of 14.5.A.0.242-Kernel

[Xperia Z1 Android Development] tomascus:
Why on earth would you format boot partition as f2fs? It's for the /data and /cache partitions
[Xperia Z1 Android Development] Niflheim_:
Well, you dont understand me. I cant change the format to f2fs OBVIOUSLY of the cache and data partitions, but in search of the reason, i found a forum that says what i need to change is a parameter in the boot partition.

What do you mean that your boot partition doesn't let you? The recovery provided with the kernel should have an option to format as F2FS.

+cpu gov keeps 1 core as zzmove.

+unstable, kmsg and logcat pool out lot of errors.

+randomly reboot.

+cant disable zram, crashes phone.

In SystemTunerPro's log files are some errors when using your kernel on Barebone. Can you tell me if they are from kernel or some app, maybe exposed framework? If they are from kernel, is it possible to get rid of them with optimized settings in Kernel Aduitor?

Edit: There is one additional behaviour I recognized. When I try to restart I get into a bootloop at bootanimation. But when I wipe cache and dalvik before all is well. Except some error messages directly after boot (camera, launcher and some functions were stopped). But they do not harm the system afterwards.
