[Verizon LG G2] ECrispy:
I am going to give my beloved G2 to a relative who will run it on GSM networks only, since the VS980 is GSM unlocked it should be no problem.

I have been using this phone for 2 years with no problems and running stock or xdabbeb, currently happens to be on MicroMod - all of these are stock Lollilop roms. I'd be ok with trying AOSP or CM but the stability doesn't seem to be there as well as the camera is not as good.

I am considering either xdabbeb 3.1.2 or CloudyG3 3.3 and would like opinions - both of these have very good reviews, I will use xdabbeb's XCam with both of course.
[Redmi Note 2 General] morningster:
I wanted to post in the Android Dev section to get the direct attention of the devs but I'm too inexperienced and thick to qualify apparently... :silly:

My question is this: is it possible for an enterprising person to take bits from a MIUI 7 China Dev ROM (CDR) and use them to tweak the Global Dev ROM (GDR) to make a pre-rooted GDR?

Lots of folk are desperate for a rooted GDR which preserves OTA update functionality without messing around with custom recovery booting/flashing. (In my case, I would use the "fastboot boot twrp.img" method of temp recovery but I get an "remote: unknown command" error; possibly locked bootloader?)

In the China Dev ROM, you just go to the Security app and turn on (or off) "Root Access". Should be possible to take binaries, config files, signatures or whatnot (clearly I'm not an expert!) from the CDR and modify the Global ROM with that? (Someone might propose that I just go and use the Chinese ROM for simplicity - installing GApps etc separately - but I'm based in Europe and I want the structure and features/ functionality of the Global ROM.)

I'm not sure how any such tweak would be affected by incremental updates, but I'm sure some clever dev could address that point.

Your help, interest, consideration and possibly even legal advice very much appreciated! :cool:
[Redmi Note 2 General] morningster:
Cannibalising (cont'd)

I should make it clear that although my question is general, I'm referring specifically to these ROMs at the present time:

China Dev ROM 5.11.26 (file miui_HMNote2_5.11.26_fcc06e3390_5.0.zip)

Global Dev ROM 5.11.12 (file miui_HMNote2Global_5.11.12_3eeec798f4_5.0.zip)
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sas46:
Can it be that the gyroscope is IN the phone but disabled by Motorola? I can't believe that they didn't inserted it

I can't take a good panorama photo, Motorola app do the worse panorama photos I've ever done, resolution is simply ridiculous and Google camera can't make it beacause of the lack of the gyroscope

I really love my phone but sometimes I'm really disappointed
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgolder:
Why are some so obsessed over the need for it?! I'm pretty sure we were all takimg panoramic photos before 'gyroscopes' were in phones as well with no issues.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] artesanoastur:
Believe me, you don't need gyroscope. Don't worry about it.

Enviado desde mi XT1562 mediante Tapatalk
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] u42671:
Why should Motorola include a Gyroscope an then disable it? This would only make sense when selling multiple devices with a different feature set based on the same hardware platform.

That's not the case with the X Play (X Style has a quite different hardware layout).
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lurdy:
Well, LG included a LTE chip on the Nexus 4 but disabled it, so... Y'never know :D
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sas46:
That's why I suppose that...they could have make the perfect phone
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fillonov:
The great reason to have Gyroscope is google VR program for cardboard. I use it on nexus 5 its fantastic! So we need it!
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgolder:
That is not a reason 'we need it'. The vast vast majority of users and phone owners out there do not give a damn about cardboard or vr in general on their phones. Peoplr on sites like this may care about it, but the general public at large really couldn't care less right now about it.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sas46:
It's a 360€ phone, why should not I deserve a gyroscope? It's very useful for panoramas, photosphere, cardboard and also for chop chop flashlightì, a very useful feature
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Trainwreck33:
This is for any musicians who moonlight as android developers, or vice versa.

I searched for an answer to this question, but I haven't yet found an answer. Since this website has always been the best for model-specific android development, I thought I'd run this up the ol' flagpole and see who salutes.

I have long avoided joining the hipster ipad/iphone crowd for numerous reasons, including reasons that are purely emotional. That said, I have run into an issue that might send me over the edge to iOS. The issue has to do with MIDI implementation. Apparently, iOS has fully implemented MIDI into its operating system and device USB ports, which is something that Android did not do until version 3.1. Even though 3.1 has been out for some time, the hardware has taken a while to catch up because of latency problems and other frustrations.

Finally, current smartphones and tablets are capable of implementing real-time midi control through the USB port; however, it requires that MIDI is properly configured in the kernel. Since I am so unfortunate as to be a Verizon customer, I have my doubts whether Verizion has bothered to unlock the midi capabilities of the S6 via an OTG cable (if ever there was a stupid name for a host cable, but that is another topic).

Does anyone know if the Verizon version of the Galaxy S6 has fully implemented midi capabilities through the USB port? Until recently, I never had the need for midi control through my phone, but now I need to do just that. I would rather not have to buy an ipad to do what I want to do, but that might be my last resort. I had just upgraded my phone before the clowns at Guitar Center told me that only iOS has implemented midi, which I later found out was not true (sort of). The only people I trust less than the staff at most Guitar Centers are the truly lost individuals you typically find at a Verizon store, so I am posting this on the only board that has never steered me wrong when it comes to all things android.

Thanks for any help in this area anyone might be able to offer.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Scott:
Im on 5.1.1 and there is no option for it like my Nexus 7.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Trainwreck33:
You might not see anything that is obvious unless you install an application that uses it and have an external USB-to-midi port connected. it isn't like the USB port that provides bi-directional communication. Midi is strictly 1-way and although midi information is digital, it is an analog signal that requires translation from USB via an external port. These are fairly common and are relatively cheap. BUT, by my understanding, in order for android to even see the port requires that midi is turned on in the kernel properly. I just ordered an OTG cable (actually an external OTG adapter) so I intend to give it a try as soon as Amazon delivers it. I have seen other people that have used midi with a Nexus phone, but not with a Verizon S6. From my past experience with Verizon, I am pessimistic about my chances. The only other option would be if I could root the phone and then install a new kernel that has midi turned on, but apparently Verizon has made that problematic as well. I will hold off on cursing Verizon much more until I confirm that they are the user-unfriendly company I know them to be. :)

it is not worse but it heating more as compared to DU and others...

[MENTION=5065706]pirej[/MENTION], just installed your ROM.

all 4 cores of the cpu are running. even i set min speed to 400 mhz it wont change.

i think this will cause battery drain.

tried to connect to android wear last night but it wont connect. will try again today and see.

YAS sensor is working. but any idea what is ltr553-pocket?

great rom btw. just some minor items to fix
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] pirej:
Thank you for reporting about YAS, my device doesn't have "yas" sensor so i couldn't know..

After all seems that GCC 4.9 beak's it, that's why i tried with GCC 4.8.

Thanks again.

About minimal frequency.. it was set to 800 by CAF, not by me, i lowered it to 400 a couple of day's ago, but its not using it properly, ill have to do some other tweaks.

Also "adaptive LMK" was not activated because of the wrong product name.

ltr553-pocket its a sensor for pocket, to make sure its full of money.. hahahah

But its not for our device, "It detects if the phone is inside pocket"

For android wear.. i dont have a clue, im not using that, if you take a logcat maybe i will(not) see something usefull.

You can try the test kernel with 400mhz enabled.
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] saurabh1234:
i ported BeansTALK rom from Moto G3...

I used CM-13 By Kuma as base and then Used Beanstalk as port...

then i ported beanstalk with old method...

and then used updater script from Pirej's Caf-AOSP rom..

and see rom booted and come to setup wizard...

now i got two fc's

1. Music app fc

2. CM actions Fc (this occurs and device reboots and continues fc and then again reboot..)

Please help me...
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] pirej:
My CAF rom and CM13 are different in other things too, not just by android tweaks and themes/features, so the update script its not 100% compatible between them.

It would be better if you find update script from some CM13 based rom.. and that would probable be every other rom excerpt "caf" and "du"(its based on caf)

Anyway.. pull a logcat and examine it, without logcat.. nothing..
[Xiaomi Redmi 2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] DecaPix:
Pirej, your test kernel didnt work.

I followed this guide to get 400 mhz.

but all 4 cores are up. in CM, some cores will go offline when CPU load is low.

Managed to get android wear to connect after i restart the phone and the watch.

When i click settings>mobile networks then error of com.android.phone has stopped will appear.

think it's the modem bug?

Yes , all 4 cores are up, its not a bug, its caf feature, different power management, not a bug

Yes.

I didn't even try to fix it, sorry.. i gave the phone to my wife, so i cant use it full-time for taking logs, fixing, flashing all the time.

If you can provide a logcat from the time FC occurs.. maybe i could find a fix.

About the heating... no games here.. try it your self.

Im not using all of those stuff in my main kernel, but just for testing.

You have to flash the latest rom build to have all frequencies working, then flash this new kernel to get those extra features.

I changed some of the "target_loads" and i think it uses the lower frequencies better if you change it to
