[Zuk Z1 Original Android Development] Breadcrust:
You must boot into recovery instantly after flash to avoid it being overwritten. Power + VOL UP + VOL DOWN on boot to get into recovery maybe you're doing it wrong
[Zuk Z1 Original Android Development] SiperX:
First of all a huge THANK YOU to Breadcrust for the amazing job!

I just received my ZUK Z1 (Cyanogen OS version 12.1-YOG4PAS3OH) and before flashing TWRP, tinkering and whatnot I would like to backup the stock recovery... Just in case ;)

The plan I have is to:

- Root (using Kingo or similar);

- Install Flashify <<-- will this enable me to backup the stock recovery?

- Via Flashify flash Breadcrust's TWRP .img file <<-- this should work, right?

Any suggestion/tip?

I have tried via the excellent tutorial provided on this thread but, no matter what, I don't manage to get the device mounted for ADB grrrrrrr.

Thanks :D
[Zuk Z1 Original Android Development] gerstavros:
No. I couldn't even boot it, neither flash, because newer ZUI bootloader is blocking anything even if you unlock it and gives these errors. You must first downgrade to ZUI_1.0.050_ST_150910

Here is the solution: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64241771&postcount=18
[Zuk Z1 Original Android Development] Kontex:
Flashify uses an already installed TWRP so it wouldn't work. If you want to keep the original recovery loader just use "boot" instead of "flash" with adb like "fastboot -i 0x2b4c boot ...". If you use flash and want to restore the original recovery later you can use one of the original images offered here in the forum. I don't see a reason to make a personal backup.
[Zuk Z1 Original Android Development] SiperX:
Thanks for your feedback :D

I seem to understand that Flashify can be used to install twrp http://www.technoxide.com/2013/11/install-cwm-twrp-recovery-without-pc.html so why are you saying that it is not possible?

I prefer to backup EXACTLY the stock ROM that it's now running on my device, hence I prefer to take the image of that particular one.
[Zuk Z1 Original Android Development] Kontex:
Because Flashify is a frontend for TWRP or CWM. It can't do the magic without TWRP so it can not make a backup of the original Recovery. The app is called flashify not backify. - Anyway stay on topic. It's the thread about the TWRP from Breadcrust and not Flashify or the general use of TWRP.
[Zuk Z1 Original Android Development] SiperX:
I am trying to install Breadcrust's TWRP on my ZUK Z1 (Cyanogen OS version 12.1-YOG4PAS3OH) and apparently Flashify is NOT a workable alternative to accomplish that.

Can someone suggest another way since I don't manage to get the device mounted for ADB?

Thanks :D

I think that the only possible way is with fastboot, download the proper drivers and set up your PC correctly, it's really simple!

Hi there... I got a 'stupid' question...

I boot the TWRP recovery by Breadcrust and then sideloaded the newest CM 13 NIGHTLY ROM in my ZUK.. I was amazed by how easy it was to use the TWRP

However after the reboot of my ZUK the recovery menu kind of changed from the TWRP on to the NIGHTLY of stock recovery.. It still worked fine and let me

install GAPPS for Android 6.0.1

SO what's happened to TWRP recovery? Was it replaced or not??

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] wilzard:
I got this SM-P600 last year for my birthday, I shortly rooted it then installed a ROM and went on my merry way.

There have always been a couple nagging issues with the rom, infrequent random restarting and blanking out my lockscreen and homescreen wallpapers.

Its on the ND2 bootloader but the "fingerprint" says NH3 release-keys, so NH3 firmware I assume.

It is rooted, twrp 2.5 or 2.6 I think.

I just want to get the firmware updated and install a stable rom on it since the restarting and wiping away wallpaper is really getting on my nerves lately.

I have been out of the tweaking and modding environment for almost a year now and I don't know where to pick up again.

So I am looking for advice and opinions.

I need to find a firmware only page, or a way to update the firmware easily, or am I missing something here?

I'd like to hear about a couple roms people out there are using, why you use it and how long?

I'd like to know if I need to have the bootloader and firmware be the same version and if that might be why I am having issues.

Can anyone point me to the right place?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] karthikrr:
Hmm, I only root and run stock roms with some minor housekeeping, so cannot help you with your ROM issues. I would imagine though that anybody who could will need to know WHAT ROM you installed.

In the meantime, the best thread I know of for you to gather information is the one at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2723420 ... Its an ALL-IN-ONE thread for the Note 10.1 (2014 edition). Please not though that the forum rules stipulate it is only for information sharing, not for questions, so you may want to visit there, catch up as best you can and then come back here with more specific questions...

Is there any reason you don't want to use stock? I ask because based on what you are saying, it doesn't appear that you chose a custom ROM with any particular intentions, but rather because ... well, apparently custom is awesome :) If you don't need anything particular, you will be much better off just running a rooted stock with some debloating to keep things spiffy. As of now, I believe the P600 is still on 4.4.4, for which root should be available. The LTE versions started receiving 5.1.1 updates last week and while it is quite awesome to run the latest lollipop, no root as of yet.

Cheers,

Karthik

My wife's LG G4 is having an issue with bluetooth connectivity. It seems to go in and out of service with her car phone audio somewhat randomly. Her phone is the only phone paired with the car - all others had been deleted. She didn't have any trouble at all with the car (2006 Lexus RX330) and her Galaxy S4.

Additionally, her Jawbone Up24 band seems to lose it's connectivity, but this has been harder to document.

Anyway, anybody else seeing this? Any thoughts, ideas out there? Thanks!

[General Questions and Answers] dmk1984:
I just started getting into rooting and such. I'm experimenting with kingroot at the moment and it seems to be working but I still can't seem to uninstall things.

I have a Samsung illusion and a moto G .I'd like to do custom roms but really all I want is to free up space. Please help
[General Questions and Answers] Ciprum:
I can tell you are new here. It might be a bit confusing to you for now, but deleting system apps does NOT increase available space for games.

On the phone memory there usually around 5 or so paritions. Partition is basicly a part of a hard drive/SD Card. It is used for organizing files into volumes. Android phones usually have the following partitions: /data /system /sd-ext /sdcard /cache /boot and a few others depending on the brand.

The apps you download are stored on the /data partition and system apps are stored on the /system partition.

So deleting apps from the /system partition will free space in that partition only and the /data partition will stay exactly the same size so you won't get any additional space.

You could however resize /system partition and add that to the /data partition which is not only very dangerous, but might actually break your phone forever.

The best solution is using an external sd card.

Or even better, mounting the internal sd card to a folder on the external card. This means that the phone will think it's putting files on the internal sd card, but actually it's putting them on the external card.

Some apps that can do this:

Link2SD - Very nice UI, a lot of features ; Requires advenced partitioning of the external sd to work.

GL to SD - Very simple, almost always works ; to open apps that are moved you have to run them from gl to sd app

FolderMount - Works very well, just mount the apps and never need to think about it again ; A bit complex to use for an average user, outdated UI

NOTE: All of the apps may cause app loading problems and files in weird places. They may also corrupt data files but that hapends extremely rarely and only if the user did something wrong.
[General Questions and Answers] dmk1984:
Well geez that's a bummer. And the moto g unfortunately doesn't have an sd slot. Even IF I can't increase download space, I still want the phone to run faster and as we both know there are junk apps that run in the background needlessly. Can you still guide me through the process to optimize functionality etc.

Thanks so much for responding
[General Questions and Answers] dmk1984:
The motoG is actually running slower. I'm not seeing the point in going through all this trouble if I can't free up space and have a smooth running device.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ssgferrell:
Like a month ago, my S5 home button started to act up. Verizon said they had to send me another phone. So, I unrooted that phone and sent it back. When I received the replacement phone, it was on 5.0 B0G5. At the time, there was nothing out to root it. I checked and found a page on here by jrkruse with the steps.

Long story short, the phone is bricked, I have been killing myself all day trying to find the stock firmware so I can flash it with Odin. I cannot find it NOWHERE!!!! Cannot use Kies because I do not have a recovery code. And for some reason, my s/n is not working when I enter it in kies to have it redownload 5.0..

So, I need the .tar for this firmware of if someone knows of a way that I can get it on the right track to continue to root it, I would appreciate it. In the meantime, I wll be using my backup..

[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
Hello all,

My phone (Doogee DG700) with Android 5.0 Lollipop has gotten very slow over time and I suspect encryption. It doesn't have anything about encryption in the security settings (Cannot decrypt phone from there) however I know it is encrypted. I read that a factory reset from the Bakcup & Restore menu will remove the encryption, but I have no idea if that actually worked or not with my specific phone.

I tried searching on Google for a few days now on methods to check if a phone is encrypted via adb or any other methods, but any google search about "how to check if phone is encrypted" leads to "How to encrypt your phone" results.

Even if this is not what's causing the major slowdowns, it is still slowing down my phone and I don't need it as I don't lock my screen anwyays.

Anybody knows anything about that?
[General Questions and Answers] Ciprum:
By default encryption is enabled on Lollipop so if you didn't do any advenced changes, the cahnces are, it's still on.
[General Questions and Answers] NaturalBornCamper:
I did the steps to decrypt, that's why I need a way to verify if it worked. Also, I believe encryption is not enabled by default on Lollipop:

I still have my Vzw note 2 and can run GSM or CDMA sim cards and have test and used it.

With the Bootloader unlocked and right ROM and change the Apn Settings.

But with the note 4 the ROMs are not made for multiple carriers anymore.

AT&T will work on here and I still had to updated APN settings a little.

I removed all others to keep it form dropping call because its jumping around to other settings.

Also turned off Lte so data will stay locked in on H and H+.

I have seen it drop data connection jumping back and forth form H,H+ and Lte.

When i place my wife VZW sim card in my Tmobile note 4 LTE kicks in and I can use it.

Signal jump on but will not connect to make a call and texting will not work.

Q::: Is there anyone already running a VZW CDMA sim card on a T-mobile note 4??

Q::: Will a sim card unlock work??

Q::: What unlocking site did use??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
LTE should theoretically work, but you still would not be able to call or text because most places still rely on CDMA for the talk, text, and 3g. The Tmobile phones do not have the hardware to support it. Plus any time you would not have an LTE service, you would be out of luck since there would be nothing available for the phone to fall back to. You would also run into trouble if you needed to register the phone with VZW for any type of service as the IMEI won't be in their database and they won't allow any phones that aren't there to be officially registered with them. Not to mention other problems like being unable to update PRLs and profiles.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] PeterHJS:
Hello guys, I'm new.

I have decided to reuse my old Note 1 as a video surveillance device to output to a monitor using TinyCam Pro.

I already flashed this with the latest Quincyatt and got it all working great, EXCEPT that MHL does not work on this build it seems.

From what I can gather from reading the forums so far, only ROMs based on STOCK have MHL working?

If this is the case, can anyone recommend me the leanest, most battery optimized ROM that has MHL working and which I can have Play Store enabled to download and get TinyCam Pro working?

Thanks a million.

~Peter
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] developweb:
If you are only using MHL then I would probably go back to a lite gingerbread (Saurom) or ice cream sandwich (Only One Goldie) rather then Jelly Bean (Custom Canadian or Blackstar Blackjelly). Also my mhl adapter has pass through charging which you will likely need anyway so battery life isn't a big deal.

Unfortunately after a bit of searching it looks like the Saurom mod is no longer supported and the official thread's download links do not work.

I also could not find a reference for Goldie except the Beta 5? version which looked dubious after I read toward the end that the developer tried to jack someone else's mod and claim it for himself.

Ah well, I guess I'll try some stock mods and see if that will do.

Running a stock based rom you don't need any mod. Just an mhl adapter. Just be wary of roms that say they have removed all the Samsung bloat. Mhl apparently needs some of it.
