Hi I wanted to ask about how to root and unlock the bootloader for this Huawei? I'd like to try CM9 or 10 or whatever. Increase the storage saying 1.95GB yet it's supposed to be 4GB storage?

It would be nice to increase picture quality and that's about it... Great phone btw incredible battery life. Had it on for over 4 days and it's at like 50%.

Recovery error Z00A

Hello, I am new to this forum. I have the Asus Z00A Zenfone 2 and I have a problem with him ... I made a root and after this operation, I jumped out the OTA update, I downloaded and when you try to install jumped out error in the recovery. The system gets up normally, I do unroot and re-root but when you enter the recovery phone still tries to install the downloaded software and still pops up an error ... I suspect that simply delete the file you downloaded the update but do not know where he is. It will help anyone? :)

[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shawly:
Hi guys,

I'm interested in downgrading my Thor which is currently on firmware 4.5.5, because some apps have problems with the FireOS and the customization features of FireOS are pretty much.. uh, nonexistent.

I once had rooted my Thor and installed HDX Nexus, but back then the battery life was pretty bad, so I switched back to stock 3.* and because the battery life was still bad I didn't care about the root anymore and upgraded to 4.*.

Currently my battery life is about 7-12 days in standby with FireOS 4.5.5, I mostly use it to read manga, so if I read for 2-3 hours in the evening the battery lasts for about 4-5 days depending on how high I set the brightness.

Can I achieve similar or better results with HDX Nexus or CM-11? Because if not there would be no need for me to do all the downgrading stuff etc.

Or can I install a second 4.5.5 stock rom with safestrap?

Edit: Oh well, since nobody answered I just downgraded my Kindle and tried it out myself, HDX Nexus had a problem where I couldn't activate wifi, so I just switched to CM-11 and the batterylife is horrible...

In just one night my HDX lost 30% battery where I just lose about 3-5% with stock FireOS... I mean I know that, when you install a new custom rom, that the battery has to adjust first, but 30% in one night?! Come on..

Seems I have to use stock until the custom roms get better.. :(
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
I responded to your observation in another forum. Short answer is both Nexus v4 and CM11 equal or exceed FireOS in terms of power efficiency when installed natively. Safestrap *may* add a dimension that increases power consumption. However, the 5-10x you observed seems excessive. Hard to believe others wouldn't be complaining if that was the norm.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shawly:
So installing it natively "could" fix my heavy drain problem? Would it be possible to backup my current CM11 rom-slot and restore it on the stock rom-slot, so I don't have to set everything up again?
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DB126:
Moving your existing install to the stock slot may help with battery drain. Use backup & restore within safestrap recovery. Don't forget to backup and store your existing stock slot if important.

You can't install Nexus v4 or CM11 natively as the bootloader is locked on your device and can't be unlocked using any known exploit.
[Kindle Fire HDX 7" & 8.9" Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shawly:
Alright, it worked thank you! The battery drain is back to normal now. :)

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windsor1959:
I just bought a Tab S 8.4 and rooted it. I've had other Android devices before, like the Nexus 7. I tried to uninstall some bloatware but the system reinstalled it all. I'm looking for a custom ROM like CleanROM for the Nexus 7 - with less bloatware or at least the ability to choose which apps I want to keep.

Thanks for any suggestions .
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
You will find them in the development section
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windsor1959:
Yeah, I know that this is more of a DIY project. Besides, devs get the same questions all the time. Still, I was hoping to get a hint or two. But, I've had time to do some exploring, and I'm finding lots of useful info.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rookie12:
What will you using your device with the rom for and i can suggest some
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] koimr:
I've used several ROMs and it really comes down to your preferences.

You generally have the really-custom ROMs based off Cyanogenmod OR heavily-modified stock Touchwiz ROMs.

For the former, I can say that BlissPop is pretty nice: BlissPop. I've been using this for the past month without any problems until I switched a few days ago.

I do find that most ROMs based off Cyanogenmod really perform very similarly to each other and have mostly the same features.

For stock, I am currently using this: IronROM.

It's pretty nice, has the benefit of things like the fingerprint sensor and such whereas CM stuff will not. A lot of the bloat from the stock ROM has been removed. I'm also trying out [MENTION=3511708]UpInTheAir[/MENTION] 's custom kernel with it although it's not strictly necessary to do so. Touchwiz has come a long way from the horrible monster it used to be, especially with ROMs like these. :)

One thing to note is that the CM stuff will likely be based off AOSP and on Android 5.1.1 whereas the stock stuff is still 5.0.2. Quite honestly, I don't see much of a difference in day-to-day use.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windsor1959:
Thanks for the info. From what you are saying, IronROM looks like a good choice for me. Basically stock, but debloated. In the meantime, I have found some threads on debloating and on freezing some unnecessary apps. I have been carefully experimenting with that, and so far I'm happy with the results. The odd thing is this: if I uninstall some app like Dropbox or Samsung Apps, my device just reinstalls it right away. So, it's either freeze the unneeded apps or go to a ROM that doesn't have them.

Uninstaling unneeded apps would help with storage space on my 16GB S, but I also have a 64gb SD card and I know about Link2SD. So storage isn't a deal-breaker.

Thanks also for the kernel suggestion. When I had a Nexus 7, I used a custom kernel (Elemental X) and it worked very well.

I'll be using my S for reading, videos, light gaming, email, and some Internet browsing. My usage could increase if I find myself preferring my S to my other options!
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
Those apps that come back can be deleted. They are contained in the hidden partition. The folder is called preload. Delete anything in there and they won't come back.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windsor1959:
Thanks. That solves that mystery. Is the preload folder typical of Samsung devices?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windsor1959:
The only Preload folder I have found so far contains only some images and sound samples, and possibly a screen saver. Maybe I can't access the hidden partition from Root Explorer or ES File Explorer?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashyx:
In the stock rom there are 2 images that contain loads of crap, cache.img and hidden.img

Between the 2 is why you end up with preinstalled stuff that isn't in the system.img

I will have to check when I get chance to see which one of those has the apks and where it puts it.

Usually it's only the carrier branded roms that have this bloat.

Install a non carrier rom and it shouldn't have it.

Anyway if you download system app remover (ROOT) it should list these apps and let you get shut of them.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Windsor1959:
I tried system app remover before I started this thread, but the apps would get reinstalled. But I found a solution. I used TiBu to convert some system app bloatware to user apps. I rebooted and then uninstalled them. They stayed uninstalled. That appears to be my answer!

I learned this hard way - by going to Europe with my SM-T707A.

If you're out of 3g/4g area (2100Mhz), and need EDGE/GPRS coverage - you're out of luck, AT&T version is only tri-band, 900MHz is left out!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rossbeck:
So when 5.0.1 first came out, I upgraded my Verizon S4 and immediately noticed that AVRCP (bluetooth metadata) was completely broken. Luckily I didn't flash the new bootloader so I downgraded to 4.4.2 and it's working again.

Just to clarify, bluetooth connected and played audio for me on 5.0.1 OC1 but would not display song/artist/etc info on my car's bluetooth display. Works fine on 4.4.2 NC5.

Is anyone on the new build OF1 that can confirm if AVRCP is working for them or not? Since I listen to podcasts/etc 99% of the time in my car this is kind of a dealbreaker for me if it's not fixed.

Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
I have a pebble smartwatch and also use the metadata feature for some apps (music playback particularly)

I'm on the oc1 build still and, by using Poweramp, I was able to get it working great.

I feel like it depends on what apps you're using and their settings. What app do you use to manage your podcasts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rossbeck:
Hmm... good point. I use PocketCasts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rossbeck:
Maybe I'll just get brave and update to OF1 but make sure I can downgrade if necessary :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scottchy014:
I'm having the same exact issue! Iheart radio won't display the song info on OC1. Amazon music and Play music are the same way. I've even flashed a custom OC1 ROM with the same results.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rossbeck:
I'm going to try out OF1... I'll let you know if it works!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rossbeck:
Well, it's still completely broken in OF1... but everything is running faster for me so I might just try to live without it. This is the best example I've ever found to NEVER buy a device with a locked bootloader again! We can't count on these stupid carriers to properly make kernels and they won't even let us fix it. *growl*
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
hey

idk if you wanna try something for me

Poweramp has a trial on google play. there's a setting in there for Bluetooth metachanged intent. Check that, then go and play some music in your car and try that out.

or, go into pocket casts and enable the option for allowing other music apps to access the files. and listen to one of your podcasts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rossbeck:
Sure, I'll give it a whirl.... but I've seen this before and it's almost always a bug in the kernel. Both Google Music and PocketCasts are broken for me (but that's all I've tried so far). Both worked fine in 4.4.2 (NC5)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
poweramp was written by a crazy russian dude who like replaced all of the code that the AOSP music implementation with his own. it's crazy. and because of that it doesnt work properly sometimes.

i've had the hardest time with gapless playback ever since i've owned this phone

until discovering that turning off MPDecision in a kernel management app fixed it.

the AOSP gapless playback implementation is now better than Poweramp's, so I decided to switch to----oh i just realized my anecdote has nothing to do with your question. sorry dude lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rossbeck:
Well, i'm 100% convinced it's a problem with the Verizon 5.0.1 (both OC1 and OF1) kernels. AVRCP metadata is not enabled at all and doesn't work on any of my apps which all work fine on 4.4.2 (NC5). Tested on: PocketCasts, Google Music, PowerAMP, BeyondPod. We basically have 2 options: Use 5.0.1 and live without BT metadata, or go back to 4.4.1 IF you are able to (if you flashed stock/OTA 5.0.1 you are stuck with it).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
vanilla music doesnt display metadata on my pebble, google play music does. proof: https://i.imgur.com/71RM9gq.jpg
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rossbeck:
Crazy.... using verizon 5.0.1 OC1 or OF1?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] skepticmisfit:
rooted of1. I think it worked on oc1 too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] rossbeck:
Weird. I've never seen any sort of metadata out of either. Granted, I'm only testing it with my Honda Civic display, not a pebble... but it shouldn't matter if AVRCP is working properly. I think i might downgrade to 4.4.2 (NC5) and play around with safestrap.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] MysticCobra:
I'm running rooted OC1 on my S4 and using Google Play Music or the RadioParadise widget, I see artist / song title on my car's display as it plays through BT. Is that different from what you guys are talking about?

same here but on first boot zzmoove shows, the next boot it disappears.. may need to disable it. On other news, new hotplugs Alucard, Mako and Bricked have been implemented. Will include in next update with some thermal and cpu freq tweaks...
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] davtse:
Great! I come from the i9505 so I'm familiar with Alucard. Anyway just a question. My Big cores seem to come online more often then the little cores do, even when just doing UI stuff. Is this how the 615 behaves normally? I'm using alucard for both sets of CPUs and autosmp.
[Xiaomi Mi 4i] haikalizz:
I think it's how the governor handles it... The big cores aren't always online using the settings provided, most of the time the little cores handles most of the UI, Games and stuff. I will try using alucard and see.
