Multiplatform: not Hermes only

Discussion about PP=0 is, of course, interesting-helpful-productiv...

But: for me is more interesting thing - is the algorithm I'd realised Hermes-specific or can be applied to other platforms too?

I tried to find/change PP in some ROMs. Results:

Platform/File/Result/Note

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

Artemis/RUU_signed.nbh/Found (8 Mb)/xdaorbit-windows-update.exe

Elf/RUU_signed.nbh/Found (8 Mb)/RUU_Elf_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.11.707.1B_4.1.13.42_02.93.90_Ship.exe

Prophet/nk.nba/Found (8 Mb)/Prophet_WM6_17913_TrueNeytral_1_4MS.rar

Trinity/RUU_signed.nbh/Found (6 Mb)/img-38311-RUU_Trinity_mUn_2_01_TE_WWE.exe

Wizard/nk.nbf/Not found/Stable_Ground.zip

Seems like the PagePool Changer can be used by ROM cooking not for Hermes only. I checked (here and on 4pda.ru) - PP-change algorithm for Elf, Trinity and Prophet is the same as for Hermes. In Wizard's case I need to find clear description of PP-change algorithm... can someone point me to right post?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] starlit:
does this works with htc touch/ELF?

thanks!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] om-by:
Must do. The pagepool search/find/change algorithm is the same as for Hermes: description.

ROM file has the same extension (.nbh) as Hermes and can be processed by PagePool Changer easy.

Unfortunately, I don't own the Elf and cannot flash/test ROM myself.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ratcom:
Thank You!

Great tool "om-by" much better than poking around with hex editor ;)

.... why do I see the wrong in what Ive just said :D
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Dr Puttingham:
OMG! This is absolutely amazing!

Thanks SO much! You're right, why keep downloading the same ROM just for a different pagepool.

Cewl beans!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] starlit:
hi! thanks for this tool. I dont have the ELF (yet) ;)

But if the files from the RRU can be updated using the tool, it should be ok right?

Appreciate if someone who have a touch who test this let us know the results. This is a very simple and excellent tool! Just update the file can do the normal update right?

I hope it works as I am going to get a touch soon!

Thanks again!

Version 1.2 released

Version 1.2 released.

1.2 - Supported platforms:

Artemis, Athena, Herald, Hermes, Touch, Trinity (.nbh and OS.nb files)

Charmer, Wizard (OS nb files only - not .nbf!)

Prophet (.nba files)

It 'll be last last version of "pre-flash" PagePool Changer. If I'll have time next month (now I don't have), I'll think about "inside" variant of it.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
Ok just got replacement S6 edge had D0l1 firmware on it out the box...flashed unikernel in ODIN on it for root....booted just fine and had root...then flashed latest TWRP through ODIN tried to reboot into recovery Now phone won't boot. if I force a restart it does Sammy logo then a white flash real quick to black screen followed by a vibrate then just stays black. Only thing I can do is get it in DL mode.

Now I have tried to DL the D0l1 Firmware from 2 different sources on here at XDA so I can ODIN back to stock but can't get Odin to recongize the zip.....so I extracted the files but says something is corrupt?. I am not a noobie when it comes to rooting and flashing and this is the deepest of trouble I have ever been in as far as Bricking a device. I have no clue what to do now???? Any help please!

Honestly, all I need is the D0l1 firmware which I cannot somehow get without it being a corrupt file
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
I just don't get it.....Odin will not recongize the D0l1 firmware for me to flash? I just Odin'd back my other S6 edge with broken screen to send back for insurance claim no problem with c09 firmware or the # before this D0l1. 3 different download sources same thing Odin will not see the zip file after clicking on AP.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
I can' boot into recovery..does anybody have the stock recovery for tmobile that I can flash in ODIN??
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Sickness:
Did you unlock the bootloader yet?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
How can I do it if I can't boot the phone?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Sickness:
Then you need to flash the stock ob1 firmware.

Can you get into dl mode?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
Yes DL mode is the only thing I can get into...can you link me or get the file I need to flash in ODIN? bro I really need to have a working phone by tomorrow as I work from it! SMH....

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
Ok I tried to DL the D0l1 firmware from couple other places on here and when I unzipp it Winrar is popping up message saying the the file is corrupt but it unzips anyway then when I flash in ODIn it says Fail....not sure if that's because of the file or this new bootloader from Sammy is ****ing things up for people like us? I'm staring to get nervous....this DL from Sammy is gonna be a long time.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
Also, I just noticed they have ODIN 3.10.7 out.....gonna DL that also as I have 3.10.6 still. see if that helps at all.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Sickness:
Yes...the dl will take a minute. If possible just leave your pc alone while it downloads.

If Winrar says its corrupted then it is. No sense in trying to flash it
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
OK, so I downloaded the file but like I said earlier (this is weird) When I unzip this file.....Winrar pops up and says the (archive is corrupt) but it unzips anyway but takes longer than your average file to unzip.....load it up in ODIN and when I start it goes through process and just fails? what can I do now?

How can the file be corrupted straight from Sammy???

Is there anyway you can get me the file already unzipped not saying it was corrupted?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Sickness:
I can upload the file. But it will take a while
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
Bro....I think I might be ****ed honestly, I hope not but it seems like if you get stuck in a BL with this new loader....it will not let you flash a stock image. My phone says in red at top when I force a restart (Recovery is not seadroid) I tried extracting just the recovery out of the D0l1 firmware and packed it up as a TAR and flashed but it just hangs and never completes the process. I have searched google to the end of the earth about trying to recover after this new firmware update but can't anything or anybody successful....just people stuck like me. Wish I would have just let it go and rolled stock cause I was gonna jump to the nexus probley.....but you and some others showed you were rooted and good....it all went downhill after odin'd TWRP
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Sickness:
Your fine....my upload will take awhile. Its the tar file. So all you will have to do is flash in Odin

Your stuck because you didn't unlock the bootloader. If you get into download mode then your going to be ok. So just kick back for a few hours until my upload us done
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
Mannnnnnnn, I hope your right....I have got myself out of these jams a bunch of times but this one seems lost.

You're using AP slot right?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
yes....I know how to use ODIN correctly. I just sent back my other phone and completely returned it to stock with ODIN first shot. IDK what is up with this....all I did was flash Unikernel...booted right up checked had SuperSU then I flashed latest TWRP tar file. still booted right up. so then I'm like gravy let's make a backup....DL'd quick boot app opened it up and clicked boot to recovery and BOOM here I am.

Also FAP lock is OFF
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Sickness:
Well shizzzz.....idk then bro. There must be a hardware issue somewhere that doesn't play nice with the kernel, recovery, etc....

Have you tried to Odin a different kernel?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Kid Cassidy:
No, do you have any suggestions as to which one?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] The Sickness:
Try stock first. Just pull it out of the tar

ok, gonna give it a go....report back.

Ok once it gets to boot.img ODIN just hangs.....been a while now bout 20min....Sammy got this **** on lock right now till someone figures it out. Orrrrrrr it's a hardware issue which I have trouble beliving phone was brand new like 3 days...not that it can't happen but more than likely not.

So hi people. I have (or will soon have) a Nexus 6P. But I had a little free time and noticed TWRP was available for this device. So I decided to make a flashable version of the Nexus 5X's latest official factory image.

Downloads:

6.0.0 - MDB08I: LINK

Instructions:

Bro, it's a Nexus device. Nobody needs any instructions...Just flash to your hearts desire. :)

NOTE:

I do not own the device so I haven't tested it. BUT I am 80% sure it should work. Can some one confirm.

THIS ROM IS AN UNMODIFIED VERSION OF THE STOCK SYSTEM.IMG!!!

What i meant was, is it just the system? nothing more nothing less. essentially just the system.img made into a fashable zip?

Oh that's what you meant...The yes. It is purely stock unmodified :)
[Nexus 5X Android Development] k.s.deviate:

I'm doing so right now. So far it is stuck on the Google emblem. I was already on this build and rooted. I am unfamiliar with anything but Samsung devices so please bear with me. TWRP asked if I wanted to root again before I rebooted and I said yes.

You don't need anything fancy to flash system.img, just boot to bootloader, and do a:

Should I try it again? Is there anyone that can deodex this zip?

im downloading and will try after.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] shawnanastasio:
You can download the factory images directly from google: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en

You want build MDB08I under Nexus 5x "bullhead". After downloading, unzip, and there will be another zip file. That will contain the stock system.img.
[Nexus 5X Android Development] gerg004:
I was able to get a boot by flashing the Radio, Modified Boot Image in Fastboot, then flashing the ROM and SuperSU in recovery.

This was from the instructions on the other ROM in the development thread, so I'm not sure if the same applies here. Just a heads up
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratab:
Hi everyone!

I just bought the Redmi Note 2 phone and the Zeblaze Crystal watch and after connecting the watch to the phone I found out that the contacts can not be synchronized. I have my contacts synched with Google and Mi accounts and also on both SIM cards but for some reason the watch can not see them. Everything else is working - I can read my SMS, call cogs etc, but the contacts can not be seen by the watch.

Later on I tried to connect the phone to my car and it connects and works fine - I make and accept calls but again the contacts can not be synched. The car has a very good Bluetooth settings menu and a specific function for contacts downloading but when I try to download the contacts after a few seconds it stops and gives a "not possible" message. I can only download the call log... Just like with the watch...

So I am starting to believe that it is a problem with the phone - maybe something with the MIUI settings (MIUI ver. 66.77.33.00).

With my wife's Samsung phone everything connects just fine and the contacts are synchronized immediately to the car or the watch so its really a problem with the phone.

Any ideas what the problem could be? :(
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crim Soukyuu:
There is no such thing as MIUI ver. 66.77.33.00. You're probably running a bogus ROM filled with who knows what. Legit versions are something along the lines of 5.x.xx

But I've also read there is a bug that breaks contact synching via bluetooth and it doesn't seem to be fixed in the dev rom, yet. Can't really test it, don't have BT in a car or a smartwatch.

Please see the details on the screenshot and let me know what you understand out of it... I am really not too much in the MIUI/android versions...

Ive got no Problem with that
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crim Soukyuu:
[MENTION=5606350]ratab[/MENTION]: your version is rigged so that you will never get any official updates (simply because there won't likely be a MIUI v66 in the next decade). It might not behave weirdly on the surface, but you can never know what kind of spyware might be hiding in the background. Just flash a clean EU ROM and be done with it.
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Esp_McLee:
I had the exact same MIUI version on mine, so you're not alone. It was full of junk and a virus scan revealed two trojans. False positives, I assumed, but removed them nonetheless. The amount of junk on this phone beggars belief, so I'm glad I never hooked it up to my email or anything like that before getting a custom ROM.

It seemed like a completely legit version of MIUI, though. Got mine from gearbest.com.

EDIT: Oh and yeah, I haven't been able to sync contacts to my car either (Mazda 3). It seems to be audio only.

[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratab:
Need some help in choosing the correct ROM for that phone...

I followed the link that Crim Soukyuu gave for a clean EU ROM - Multilang Dev MIUI v7 ROM - v5.10.16 but when I followed the download link there are two options - MIUI 6 and MIUI 7. And inside there are number of different files for downloading and I do not know which one to take. Would someone please help me with choosing the correct one?

Thanks!
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crim Soukyuu:
You'd have to do something terribly wrong, like purposely pulling the battery mid-flash to hard brick the device. Even flashing a faulty ROM usually still allows you to boot into fastboot and flash a working ROM from there. I've had a few softbricked devices (recoverable from fastboot) and no hardbricked devices (not recoverable) so far.

edit: huh, sorry, didn't refresh the page before posting. You should get the newest release, namely 5.10.22 as it's reportedly has better battery life. So far it's been a good version for me.

As for MIUI6 vs MIUI7, take the 7 one. It has root built in and is the newest version of the ROM, while the 6 is the old stable one that doesn't have root, afaik.

edit2: oh and our device is codenamed "hermes", so you need the xiaomi.eu_multi_hermes_5.10.22_v7-5.0 one
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ratab:
Thanks for the prompt reply. I found it and already downloading...

Is there any how-to procedure to follow - I am really afraid of doing something wrong...

I also think the phone is not rooted and I will have to root it first and then flash the new ROM.

Then probably put it on the SD card and flash from there...
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crim Soukyuu:
If you're on windows, you can try using this tool to get TWRP installed on your phone (don't have to unlock the bootloader). Boot into it (press vol+ repeatedly after turning it on) and allow modification (otherwise the mi recovery will delete TWRP on reboot). Then just wipe the phone and flash the ROM you've put on your SD card. It has shown me an error the first time I tried flashing the ROM, but after rebooting into TWRP once more it worked just fine.
