No issue with Dopod official ROM

Haven't had any SOD since running the official Dopod WM 6.0 since about a month ago. My ActiveSync settings are "As items arrive" always.

I did have it on a number of xda-forum builds previously on the same hardware and same microSD card ... so the official WM 6.0 seems to have fixed it.

But my Weather home plugin perhaps is trying to update its data. Now I'm testing the settings to update it manually. (no hangs since I write this post)

What's annoy me is that I can be months without this and then it begin to happens frequently : o /

SOD issues

Strangely enough, I didnt start experiencing SOD issues UNTIL I switched to the newer roms based on the "official" WM6 Rom...I had it with VP3G and eventually loaded Satin and the problems continued. Most of my problems seemed to be centered around shortcuts I had on my today screen for programs loaded on my sd card. After "waking" and trying to run some of the shortcuts it would take several tries or it would cause lockups or SODs. Boz pointed me to the following patch which has seemed to fix all the sd card shortcuts problems as well as the SODs I was experiencing. The only thing that seems to still cause SODs for me is if I am trying to download a large file directly to the sd card via the internet and the phone goes into standby it will still cause the SOD. But realistically I wouldnt be downloading large files like that very often, and if I have to I can just connect my usb charger or ac charger to make sure it doesnt go into standby.

I use 3g's WM6 and never had the SOD until I installed a podcast collector (smart-rss). Then, every morning when I woke up I had to play the game to get the phone working. Finally found it was easier to just hard reset and reload from the nightly backup that seems to still work. About a week ago I uninstalled SmartRSS and it hasn't had the SOD since. Certinly seems like the common thread here is for the phone to be doing data transferes while it is asleep.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Olioaglio:
Had a SOD once with Schaps 3.57a and it turned out that it was a

corrupted cemail.vol file which caused the trouble. After SR it started

first fine and than hung everytime when accessed the Messagin file

cemail.vol. After I created a new one on storage card and pointed

to it in registry and SR, deleted the old corrupted one the problem

did never occur since today. Puuuhhh...

I am absolutely sure that all SODs come from any corrupted databases

or incompatible programs which cause wakeup issues. The trick is to

find out what application is the culprit :rolleyes:

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Patrickkkkk:
Hi people,

Well. Without the possibility to move apps to the sd card i am trying to find other ways to make the most of my 128 gb so that i can make the system rom as light and spacey as i can.

I'm rooted and using a custom kernel at the moment. Bloatware not useful to me is being removed but still there's little improvement on the system rom space where i now have 599 mb free space left. In my noobish mind more space is a faster phone but maybe i'm wrong.... since i had phones the lack of space on the system rom always bothered me.

So maybe there are more ways to get the space free on the system rom? Somebody there in s6 world that knows something and can help? Or must i not be bothered of the system rom space?

Would appreciate it!

Thanks

Patrick
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phrostbite:
Do you have tons of music and videos saved to your phone? There is an app called SD maid that can help clean out any extra random crap you have laying around. How in the world do you fill up that much space on a phone. ;) did you somehow mess up a partition?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Patrickkkkk:
Hi Phrostbite, thanks for taking time for my question.

I have no problems with the S6. It's running smooth.

the partition i did not disturb that in any way.

Don't have any music or video's on the phone.

system ram> 3.78 gb. 599mb free space

Intern storage, rom> 122gb. 119 free space

Maybe i should do more reading about how the s uses the ram in combination with the intern storage but in my humble opinion more space is better so i'm looking tot get more free space on that 3.78 gb system ram.

Getting rid of adds/bloatware does not seem to change anything/much??

Hey guys,

lately i am having some trouble with my Phone.

Story:

I was surfing the world wide web and than turned the phone in standby (with 30% battery). Next morning i tried starting it but it didnt react. So i plugged it in and tried to start it. Everything seemed normal but then animation of the motorola logo lasted like 15 min until i got a blackscreen (phone is still on). I got curious and turned it off by holding the power button for serveral seconds. I tried again turning it on but every time the same thing happened. So i tried to reset my device with the factory reset. But nothing changed. After that i went into recoverymode (Teamwin) and tried to install a ROM and there i got always the same error:

E:Unable to stat '/data/dalvik-cache/arm/data@app@com.android.vending-2@base.apk@classes.dex'

E:Unable to stat '/data/system/packages.xml'

E:Unable to stat 'data/system/packages.list'

and sometimes:

Unable to mount '/data'

So i googled it and found some solutions:

Factory reset

Wiping data

Format Data

I tried all of this solutions but it didnt seem that something has changed.

Does someone know how to fix this?

Phone details:

Motorola

Model: XT1068

Type: M0FB9
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heeiiigoz:
ok i think i found something out.

The wipe tries to delete those files but they are only readable so they cant be removed.

If i try to delete them manually it gives exactly the same error. " unable to state....".

So the whole dalvik-cache is Read-only. Is that why the TWRP cant wipe it?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oliverrlh:
Yes I think so. Welcome to the club of emmc (all partitions) are read-only mode....

I cant wipe, format or install anything on my XT1063 and nobody seems to be the solution... So there is my phone (and others too) useless...
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heeiiigoz:
But it had to be writeable before because the files from my apps are all there. So there happened anything that changed this. But what would make a change like that without a userinput?

If i delete the data partition and create a new one it should work theoretically or are there any files in /data that are important for bootloader,recovery,...?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tel864:
Normally you would want to wipe data and the cache before flashing.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Oliverrlh:
The problem is that since we have a read-only partitions all the changes we made are not saved, so we cant wipe or format or install anything. We need a tool or way that change the permissions for the entire emmc memory. I have search without success
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Heeiiigoz:
That doesnt sound well...,

So since my phone is rooted i have no warranty (or should i try it? i am from germany) and my phone broke after 8 month...

I was seeing similar "Unable to stat '/data/.....' errors in the TWRP log which was causing a slow bootup as well as battery drain. I flashed the stock 5.02 ROM as given in reefuge's post, re-rooted and restored TWRP and the problem seemed to have gone away.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reefuge:
Just as a side note here I've bought a 2nd very bricked xt1068 from ebay to play with, this has a corrupted emmc but still boots to a semi working AP Fastboot mode (but NOT recovery) it's permantly stuck in a bootloader cycle - never boots - I figured its missing vital bootloader info and has deleted or corrupt partitons that cant be written to.

via windows 10 pc

So far I have tried my Easy Installer (based loosely on RSDlite) - NO luck

RSDlite 6.2.4 flashing stock roms (4.4.4/5.0.2/stagefright) with and without a fastboot cable (its supplies power even if fone is dead) this is different to a standard USB cable - NO LUCK

again repeated on my GOOD xt1068 and both methods work fine on that but not the corrupted xt1068

LINUX ubuntu 15.04

from my good xt1068 with my LINUX pc I have extracted a FULL Nandroid copy of my emmc to study (again I haven't used LINUX since Red Hat SuSe 7 days - so a big learning curve - Hence time required)

I am planing on restoring just the vital partions to allow a rom flash via fastboot and or recovery.

THIS may not be possible. it may be a specalist JTAG repair (and nobody does Moto g 2nd gens -yet)

I will keep you updated but its been 3 days so far and NO easy fix

Looking for a donations of dead or better still half dead xt1068 or any xt106x I'm UK based to experiment on

[MeMO Pad 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klausstoertebeker:
Hello,

I'm running a rooted Lollipop 5.0.1 ("LRX22C.WW_epad-V12.14.1.17_20150713 044030454_201502120108") on my ASUS MemoPad 7 (ME572C) (WiFi + LTE) and I'd like to install the "Xpose for Lollipop" framework to it.

Therefore I downloaded the necessary files ("XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk" and "xposed-v72-sdk-x86.zip"). Installation of the apk was no problem, but I ran into problems when trying to install the zip. It seems that I only can install it via a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP. And to install one of this it's presupposed to have an unlocked bootloader. But I learned that it is currently impossible to unlock the bootloader officialy.

So I tried the following to install the zip without having a custom recovery:

tried the apps "Flashify (for root users)" and "[ROOT] Rashr - Flash Tool" without success. Flashify reports to have installed the zip but when I opened a file browser to check if the files were copied into the system folder or its subfolders they were not copied. And Rashr just installs zips when a custom recovery is installed

tried to copy the zip contents manually to the system folder and its subfolders with my "TotalCommander" file browser without success because writing access to that folder were denied

tried to copy the zip contents manually to the system folder and its subfolders with the root file browser of my "ROM Toolbox Pro". I was able to copy the files, but after restart it seems that the Memo Pad is stuck in a boot loop AFTER displaying the INTEL logo

Now I'm of the opinion, that I need to install a custom recovery. But how do I do that without unlocking the bootloader? There must be a way because I saw articles in the internet saying that they have flashed such a recovery but don't telling how.

Is there someone who can tell me how I do that?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mika83AC:
Hey XDA Community,

after 3 1/2 years i'll retire my Galaxy S3 and get a new phone. So far so easy.

But as a Android enthusiast, i can't just buy a new phone, it has to be a phone which offers a good hardware base for using custom roms. And what i learned in the last 3 1/2 years is that, for example, Samsungs Exynos processors are NOT a good hardware base and rom developers hate Exynos processors.

So here we come to the magic question: Which is, from a developer view, the best, and what are acceptable processor brands which allow developers to develop a rom (more precisely the "device tree") which can make use of all of the processors features and its performance?

I think the following two brands are well known among all custom rom users and don't need to be commented:

Exynos -> as described above, "the Antichrist"

Qualcomm Snapdragon -> as far as i know the Holy Grail for developers

But what about the "underdogs"? How developer friendly are the following processor brands which now appear more and more in (flagship) phones from Huawei, Xiaomi and many other smaller phone manufacturers:

MediaTek (currently used by some Acer phones)

Hisilicon Kirin (for example used by the Huawei Ascend Mate 7, Huawei Honor 6 ...)

Nvidia Tegra (for example used by the new Google Pixel C tablet)

Intel Atom (for example used by the Asus ZenFone 2)

I'm excited about your experience with and recommendations for these "underdogs", especially if you are a developer! :)

Best regards,

Mika
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
Mediatek - Not developer friendly. Not easy to create custom ROMs for this brand of SoC.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mika83AC:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] codeworkx:

Hisilicon is a no go. No sources.

Sony + Qualcomm is the best choice.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mika83AC:
I added the "Intel Atom" processors to the list of choice. Perhaps a little late, but i think it's not unimportant.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
Intel is a no go as well since it's pretty new. As for your choice of SoC, it really depends on your needs. If you want to use a custom ROM, you're best off with Qualcomm. Otherwise most SoC will work fine for you. I own a Galaxy S6(Exynos SoC), unknown China phone(MediaTek SoC) and a HTC M8 HK edition(Qualcomm SoC). I can use them all just fine in my daily life.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crpalmer:
If you want the most development, nexus devices will always have the best open source support. If not a nexus, stick with qualcomm . all the other socs have less open source support and therefore fewer developers willing to work on them. That doesn't mean you won't get custom ROMs (zenfone 2 is going well), but the pool of people able to do real development on it is tiny...

What do you say about this: http://xdaforums.com/z3-compact/general/loss-drm-keys-t2890936

If Sony offers you good conditions / sources / binarys and whatever to develop a custom rom, but kills or at minumum downgrades many of the phones features when unlocking the bootloader (camera quality, screen quality, sound quality ...) would you buy this devices at all?

Or is there a way arround this bootloader mess which just isn't known in the thread linked above?

Sometimes when i accept a call, I can't hear anything but the caller can hear my voice perfectly, that is the mic is still working.

This occurs only once or twice during the day and only when somebody calls me. Unfortunately the 30 day return/replacement period is over so I can't return the phone and my network receptions seems to be ok.

Theses are the steps I have taken to try to resolve the issue on my own but without any fruitful result:

1.Tried factory resetting the phone.

2.Wiping cache partition

3. Rebooted the phone

4.When this issue occurred tried plugging in the headphone, switched to the loudspeaker,

placed the in-call volume to the maximum but none of this produced any audio output.

5. Tried testing the earpiece using the service mode *#*#2486#*#*, worked OK.

When I faced this problem I wasn't listening to music or using any apps(like if the audio was routed to the headphone port and not switching back to the earpiece).

6.This happened before and after the recent stage fright update.

7.Disabled OK Google detection.

8. Moto assist was also off.

I could get the phone to boot into recovery mode however when I do a wipe cache or even data/factory reset I get the following :
