[G Pad 8.3 General] xekon:
Is there any method that I can use to remove root from my VK815 tablet. I have spent the last three days trying to use the Marshmallow KDZ with LGFlashTool2014(because I cannot find the original VK81511A_21.kdz, it appears to have disappeared from the internet) I also tried using LGUP, but it will not work because you need a device specific dll for LGUP and i cannot find the vk815 dll.

I have read that the reason that LGFlashTool2014 dont work is because my KDZ file is marshmallow which flash tool does not like.

So I figure I either need a lollipop kdz file to use with flash tool, or I need the dll file for the vk815 to use with LGUP. I cannot find either on the internet, or maybe there is another way that I can remove root, I really would appreciate any help I can get.

I will use any method whatsoever if it can just remove the root, any help is greatly appreciated.
[G Pad 8.3 General] xekon:
EDIT: OK to follow up, LG Flash tool 2014 will NOT work with a marshmallow image(which is all that is online at 99% of sites) I did FINALLY manage to find the original VK81511A_21.kdz file, and it DOES work with LG Flash tool 2014, I think the only way to install a marshmallow kdz is with LGUP but it requires a device specific dll, in our case the dll for VK815, which I was unable to find.

The place that I managed to find VK81511a_21.kdz was on a chinesse site wangpan114 which redirects to baidu also a chinesse site, and you have to download their download manager, and also manage to figure out how to register on a site that is not in english.

If anyone needs this kdz file just send me a private message, I plan on keep a copy on my drive.
[G Pad 8.3 General] sn1499:
Can I have a copy of VK81511a_21.kdz. Thanks.
[G Pad 8.3 General] Xdisastermfx:
i have the dll if you have the kdz

Hey there I came across your post on the hunt for a LG VK81511A_21.kdz, I believe I have the DLL file you referenced, I'm hoping you have that kdz still? I would be extremely grateful for any assistance, thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tiwipiwi08:
Hello Guys,

I really hope there is someone who can help me out, because I think i've screwed up.

So, I tried my hand at rooting and flashing my old phone (the samsung galaxy s plus), but turns out, I'm more of a noob than I originally thought.

Okay, so here the problem: I tried installing Cyanogenmod 12.0 on my phone using TWRP. Eventually I thought I got it right when my phone finally started installing Cyanogenmod, but then after a while the installing broke of and there came a message saying: Encryption Unsuccessfull. Before I went ahead en pressed the reset phone button I researched what it meant, and there were threads saying, don't push that button and that I should try and re-install the original firmware using Odin. But when I tried to re-install the firmware Odin couldn't find my phone. And everytime I connect my phone to my pc it says that it can't connect because the thing is damaged. I also tried to connect with my phone using Kies, which also didn't work. I tried researching what to do, but nothing works.

So please someone help me!! I can't, for the life of me figure out what to do. And like I said I'm a complete and utter noob concerning this type of thing.
[Project Ara General] kmon706:
Yes. A modular phone is awesome and futuristic. No doubt people will be using it. Even though google says it comes with security, it still can be bypassed. I mean nobody ever thought about xposed framework or the things that it could do before it.

Let's imagine if someone wanted to bug your device. It's virtually impossible in traditional phones. But it's pretty simple in a modular phone. And yes, there are security protocols. But having the sheer power to modify the hardware makes the software security protocols look puny.

If the NSA or the CIA wanted to bug someone, they can create a Wi-Fi module, add a tiny processor to it and program it to send a cloned copy of data to another server. The bug will be independent from the phone OS. It will only draw power from the phone. If they wanted mass surveillance, they could sell the module for a take away price.

The power to play with hardware is a scary ability. The possibilities are endless. I'm just running by some new thoughts. Thats all.

Thanks.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+] Czotie:
Hello all, this is my first post on XDA so I hope it isn't too convoluted.

I just got the Galaxy s6 Edge + and I want to change the ui sounds of the phone to custom one's; specifically the unlock sound. "unlock_none_effect.ogg"

I'd like to change these with out rooting. The default location for ui sounds are Device>System>Media>Audio>ui. I cannot replace any of the files because they are "Read Only." I just swapped my phone into Dev mode, but Dev mode doesn't have a setting for "read only" admin power.

Anyone know the best way to do this with out rooting? I'm tech savvy as hell, I just don't work on phones that often. Anything you throw at me I'll be able to do with a limited explanation.

Thanks!

Yes factory reset will delete all of your data.

What you mean with "settings stopped"? Tell more.

You can backup your data any cloud system like Google Drive. Also you can buy an OTG Cable too.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] d8n0g:
This phone should be arriving soon but I had some questions if someone would be kind enough to help. I'm a little confused: when reading on XDA, are mods, roots, etc the same for 850+? I'm planning on rooting then upgrading to lollipop. Is there a lollipop rom already rooted? Last question is regarding kernels. Are there any custom kernel to where I can tweak sound volume such as faux or franco?

All your answers and help are appreciated in advance
[Palm Treo 750] irv777:
Hi, does anyone know the workaround or a fix for the pocketbreeze and keyguard issue?......basically when pocketbreeze is on my today screen the keyguard function does not work/activate......but when i disable or take off pocketbreeze from the today screen then the keyguard works as normal.......i know its the pocketbreeze issue coz i have tested all my third party apps and this is the only program thats stuffing up the keyguard function.....the issue is in both WM5 and WM6 roms by the way.....

if there is no workaround or fix to this.....what is another app that works just like pocketbreeze.......thanks in advance
[Palm Treo 750] irv777:
nevermind, i actually found the solution as per link below.....all i need to do was to put the gsget.dll on the windows directory and reset.....also need to install the most recent version of pocketbreeze for the dll file to work......as it doesn't work on old version of pocketbreeze

>So he have made it clear for us that this is 32bit (We may be doubted whether this kernel is 32bit or 64bit, since it is for lollipop. So he made it clear before having questioned..)

:p:p Not only your redmi 2 prime... Every redmi 2 & redmi 2 prime is a 64bit device only..

64bit capable devices can run 32bit ROMs & apps

but 32bit devices/ROMs are compatible with 32bit kernels & apps only..

So he have mentioned that this kernel is 32bit..

[Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] nicknitewolf:
zwliew source bugs:

- barely working proximity sensor

- black screen & freeze due to some mmc (fixed in kumajaya's source)

- CPU stuck at some value for first five minutes

- painful screeching sound first five seconds of .wav recording

kumajaya source bugs:

- painful screeching sound first five seconds of .wav recording

- worse camera quality and I suspect something to do with autofocus

Mostly, I think both kernels are build on the same base but with different commits and device names.

cm-12.1-amss-2.1

However, kumajaya's rom is compatible with zwliew's kernel base but zwliew's rom is not compatible with kumajaya's kernel base

Redmi 2 hm2014813

Hello, I am using Cm12 on my redmi 2 and would like to flash your kernel, specially in order to get rid of that awful voice recording sound.

Though I am not able to flash it.. Recovery says that my device is not compatible.. It should be REDMI 2 HM2014811 but mine is HM2014813.

Any idea what I should do please.

Thank you!
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Lennoard:
Be careful

First, you need t know if it's compatible with ....... 13

If it is, should flash uh?

But it not flashed so here goes the geek part I guess...

WARNING this may cause bootloop or soft brick

Be sure you know how to get a way from this

Make a copy of the kernel's zip and open that copy with winrar without extracting

Go to META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script and open this with a text editor like notepad++ (if you dont have np++) I should sugest you dont try any other one

Find the assert comand right on begining I guess.... find the getprop ro.product.xxxxx blabla and change to yours

Close and save. Winrar will update and get courage to flash :)

just focus on kumajaya's build for now. zwliew haven't updated his source for a while. Back when he temporarily stopped the development for his exam, kumajaya fixed a few things(some things related to the camera, proximity sensors etc), so zwliew's build have a few things to catch up to. They used to be very similar(no major differences, except for the naming, optimization etc). I'm sure zwliew will update his work some time later, but for now, no need to stress on the differences.

I tried the kernel on the Nexus Experience and it works just fine.

Kumajaya's kernel used in AICP already fixed the noise in recording. I wanted to report a bug concerning the headphones controls. The Vol+ and Middle work as intended, but Vol- makes some kind of touch in the screen. I've tried to download some apps to modify the behavior, but it seems that Vol- button pressing doesn't throw the right event, so those apps don't have any effect.

My headphones don't have any issue, I've tried them on my Redmi 2 with MIUI and work as intended, and I've also tried them on other phone with CM12.1 and they also work as expected.

Many thanks for your attention.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Lennoard:
Is it really fixed?

If yes, cool :cool: but AICP has a bit Chinese things so I am feeling a few Discouraged
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] proudh0n:
Yes, no scratchy noise on recording. Working like a charm. I've tried the last AICP and i didn't seem to notice any chinese string. In fact it was translated as well as Nexus Experience ROM, which is the one I'm using currently.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] nitheeshas:
I have been trying RR ROM latest build, which doesn't seem to include any hotplugs with it. So i flashed this kernel. It works, but found a weird problem. At times, the CPU tends to be locked at single core, min freq(in my case, only core 1 active with 400MHz clock speed) which makes it lag like hell. It however recovers from this state after a few mins. I've checked the thermal restriction and its set to control clock speed at 65 degree celsius but the core temperature at the time when it gets slow, is way less than that(right now, its slow and temp is 39 degrees). I think this happens mostly after a call, but not restricted to just that. Any idea why this happens?
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] proudh0n:
[MENTION=5102570]Tarun93[/MENTION] The issue with the headphones doesn't have anything with the kernel itself, it can be fixed editing the generic.kl file and adding VOLUME_DOWN to the key 260.

If you could integrate the scratchy sound and yas573 fixes of kumajaya into this kernel it would be awesome. Otherwise, this kernel works very well.
