Hi cab13,

Z5 is already running mm, flashed it and now rooted and bl unlocked so not concerned about warranty.

Hey, I usually just use ADB to get rid of apps I don't want/need. The ADB shell commands are very similar to *nix commands.
[Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheTecXpert:
[MENTION=3949132]smiley.raver[/MENTION]

The simplest way that I went about removing all the excessive apps/bloatware was by using a program from the google play store called "System App Safe Remover" or "System App Uninstaller", anything that gives you direct access to ROOT SYSTEM APPS.. You can use ADB, for but for those not completely technically savvy in the "Command Shell" I would highly recommend not using ADB..

Anyway, Once you launch the APP (of your choice) , you will be in a menu with ALL APPS that you can remove.. they will be in categories and alphabetical order.. the App will specif things like "could remove", "should keep", "Key Module" etc etc...

From there you can just uninstall all the crap that is not need and anything else you dont want.. In an earlier post I have a long list of APPS and modules that I removed from my phone which gave me an OVERALL stable, clean, fast and Battery Life improvement on the device.. I'm happy with it.. And Warranty is never an Issue for me since i've always rooted ALL of my Sony Xperia devices and have never had any issues with them..

But everyone is different and has their own preferences on how they do things ..

HI everyone

I have an issue with my Nexus 6 where all of my sensors have stopped working when I tried to update to the latest version of marshmallow. The update resulted in a boot-loop. When tried to fix the boot-loop I followed the instructions on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/google-nexus-5/general/guide-to-fix-persist-partition-t2821576

To make a long story short I managed to format the persist partition which I believe has made all of the sensors to stop working. I would be deeply grateful if anyone with a rooted nexus 6 could make a dump of their persist partition and attach it here.

There is a guide on how to make a dump of the partition here: http://xdaforums.com/redmi-note/help/partition-persist-erased-dump-redmi-t3192255

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gonsoXDA:
Hello,

I'm a beginner lost in reading all the useful information on this forum.

I started with the idea to reduce the permissions of applications of my Razr I.

Google pointed to this http://www.xda-developers.com/protecting-your-privacy-app-ops-privacy-guard-and-xprivacy/

And I'm really happy and surprised about all information I can find here, thank you that much for

making this possible to all of you!

As today I feel ready to start playing around with my phone I wanted to ensure I understood the items right.

May be for you it takes only some seconds to verify my guess and can give a short notice

about Step 2 or 3 is easier to become implemented.

Step 1.) I wanted to do a full backup before I start, following this thread:

So I'll install ADB on my PC and run "adb backup -f FullBackup.ab -apk -all"

This works on a Razr I with 990.43.74.xt890.Retail.en.EU - of the shelf and is not risky at all - or?

Could you pls. tell whether it is really true I can switch back to my backup if I'm not happy with my System?

Step 2.) My first intention was to root my device and install Xposed framework

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2299428

http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer

And to use Permission Master out from google play store

First of all I wanted to ask you whether this is feasible technicaly and esp. for a beginner?

Alternative to Step 2 Step 3?

Step 3.) In general I'm happy with my Razr I Android 4.4.2	(990.43.74.xt890.Retail.en.EU)

But I'm wondering whether it would be easier or has less risk to use a custom ROM instead of implementing Step 2.

By reading in this forum I found out there is a planty of features FM-Radio, enhanced stand-by current ,

to get rid of preinstalled aps and so on.

I'm an embedded developer but do not have the overview about the architecture of Android devices, what I got so far is:

There is a bootloader which needs to be changed from OEM closed to open.

There is a boot partition I flash ROMs in.

I need some tools on my PC combined with SDK and Motorola drivers to allow a USB-Debuging and flashing.

And sure as always once your bootloader is damaged you are lost, so I understand even backup will not help here.

So I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Thanking you in anticipation and pls accept my excuses about my english and stupid beginners questions.

Best Regards

gonso

PS:

As I main entry point I used the

Hello,

always having a backup seems not to be that easy.

So I unlocked my boot loader and tried to install twrp2850 and twrp2860 via mfastboot.

The mfastboot with 533.353kB caused the following "(bootloader) Variable not supported!"

I rebooted into bootloader and tried recovery -> horizontal Android man with a red !-rectangle

After reboot to normal power up my phone seems to be in factory reset, all my data is gone :crying:

ok crying dosn't help so I looked around and tried with another mfastboot 186.178kB and recoverycwm6.0.5.1.4.img.zip

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2441224

The twrp I tooked from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2278483 seems not to work.

I did a backup with cwm is there a change to get back my data? :cowboy: I think I know the answer. :)

In the meanwhile I installed

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazou:
Than u know the answer, it is no I think.

Both twrp images should work just fine, but always chose the latest. The message "(bootloader) Variable not supported!" doesn't do anything ;) So don't worry about that one. There should be a lot more in you log that the message if twrp didn't install. U did extract it and flash it with the command: mFastboot flash recovery <recovery-image>. Where <recovery-image> could be C:/users/*/Downloads/recovery.img.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gonsoXDA:
Hello,

yes sure "The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future;)"

So I use CM11 now for about 2 days and I'm really impressed, so far everything works :good: THANK YOU!!!

As I asked already I installed XPosed and Permission Manager, but I found XPrivacy might be the better solution and switched to this.

(Today I do not have all the technical background to judge whether it is technically equivalent, but I'll investigate on it)

Esp. one thing I'm wondering, why XPrivacy is reading my Contacts once I check the permissions of an app?

But the more important thing I recognized differences between CM11 and the Stock ROM. One is the Entry

"Privacy" in the settings. It seems to be more or less the XPosed and XPrivacy, or?

But it seems the Restrictions are not shared, so I can restrict in the one and do not see the restriction in the other tool.

So first is there a risk to use both, is it useful or just doing the same twice.

Thank you

Gonso
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazou:
That's a sentence.

Why XPrivacy needs it i don't have a clue. For that sort of things u need to be by the dev of the app.

CM has a lot of features out of the box compared to stock, but stock is most of the time a bit more optimized in terms of proprietary stuff like camera.

So as u noticed, CM had an inbuilt security app. This app (CM) and XPrivacy don't share there settings, so that's the difference u see. But most likely if u disable something in one of the apps it is disabled even tho the other doesn't say it because it doesn't know of it.

I don't think it will be a risk. They both do the same thing, but they don't know about it. To be on the safe side, just use one and restore the other to default. U can always search on the web if they don't get along.

U can now make a full backup, so everything can be reverted and your data should be relative safe.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gonsoXDA:
Hello,

Most of the time I used the numbers to just put in the extension, so if I want to call 0049 9876 54 321 I put the numbers 321 the Motorola dialer will show a list of all contacts where the number contains 321.

Some Numbers of contacts are not shown as well, seems if a contact has more numbers only one or two are shown.

The CM11 dialer doesn't show the number, is there a setting to get this feature?

I tried to get my Stock dialer back, so I copied dialer.apk from stock into the /system/sec-app/ directory of the CM11 and restarted the phone -> doesn't change the dialer ....:rolleyes:

Any proposals? I'm terrible sorry for my stupid questions, I read several threads and still no idea about a possible solution:confused:

Gonso

PS: CM11 file manager shows a secure storage /storage/emulated/0/storage/secure - what is the algorithm used for the encryption.
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hazou:
Stock CM dialer doesn't have that function afaik. The moto one doesn't work because it needs the Moto framework to work. Just download a dialer U trust from the playstore.

I don't have any clue about the secure storage, sorry.

hey guys,

as we all know there are two speakers in phone, the bigger one (for songs or ringtone)

and the smaller one (for voice call - above the screen! )

I have cm12.1 and today when i was listening a song through speaker using ES file explorer media player, then suddenly I had to make a call, the media player stopped during the call, I just thought what if I press play during the call? and when I started the song during the call, the sound started to come through the small speaker!!

so I was thinking if there is an app from which we can intentionally use the small speaker to listen to anything like songs (or something you don't want other people around you to hear :P )

my second though is that, few years ago my friend had a Nokia phone (I don't remember the model no.) and he used to show me a cool thing during a call If he played a song, the song started playing in the recievers phone (from the small speaker) not like when you take your phone close to the tv speaker, but just like someone was singing into the speaker, I wonder if theres an app to do that?

also if I am wrong somewhere in this post please enlighten me..

[Oppo R7 Plus] ISEEYOU4-EVER:
Can I flash the ROM's made for the Plus version on the normal R7?
[Oppo R7 Plus] elsuzio:
Nope. They have different "internals" so you have to wait for a ROM made specifically for R7.
[Oppo R7 Plus] ISEEYOU4-EVER:
Different internals?

What Different internals do they have ?

As far as I can see only in the screen size is different.
[Oppo R7 Plus] elsuzio:
If that where the case, don't you think Oppo would had updated the ColorOS version of R7 to lollipop a little bit sooner ?

Even if they have similar internals, that doesn't mean they are identical, "some work" is required to make them work when you port a ROM to the other device.

The screen is different, for one, and that surely means not only changing the resolution but changing the driver in the kernel.

Also, R7 plus has fingerprint support, also a change in the kernel.

As far as I can see the wifi support is also different with more modes supported in R7 plus.

So no, a ROM made for R7 plus will not work on R7.

What it's even worse, a ROM made for R7 plusf variants (international version) may NOT work on R7 plusm (chinese version with international bands) !

From my experience (not on nexus, but i think it should be similar), "fastboot flash system/recovery " worked for me when bootloader is not unlocked. So, i don't see reasons why "fastboot erase" shouldn't work.
