[Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkb_always4u:
I searched as much I could but there is no proper way for HTC 826ds.:(

But HTC 820ds matches exactly 826ds but full hd screen.

So, if any developer or experienced user can tell me if its safe to use the CWM/TWRP + rooting method here described for 820ds.:confused:
[Desire 820 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolmmk07:
there is no proper twrp for d82 also. It's with some errors. But still it does the work. As there is no separate thread on d826, you can't even ask about experience. Try the same TWRP 2.8.7.0 for your d826. (You must be knowing the procedure of rooting, right?)

***Take required backup before proceeding***

Hi guys! I made a video tutorial recently because a lot of people asked for it! Please let me know if you would like to see some other video's! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZnb3DhRA3Q
[Nexus 6P General] mr.dj26:
Please correct me if i'm wrong..

This method you(side load) is for locked bootloaders

If the devices has an unlocked bootloader you can flash the imgs (bootloader,radio,boot,etc) vie fastboot right?
[Nexus 6P General] superstephan:
Well those two methods can both be done when your bootloader is locked. This method i showed was sideloading an ota update. You won't lose your data this way. Flashing the full system images wipes your phone.
[Nexus 6P General] mr.dj26:
you're right, but you can just flash the bootloader, radio, and the firmware without wiping the user data.

Thanks for the info
[Nexus 6P General] fury683:
Sideloading the OTA will work for both locked and unlocked bootloaders. Flashing the factory image requires an unlocked bootloader. You can flash the images individually as you described, or modify the batch file (remove the -w flag near the end) to keep user date from being wiped as well.
[Nexus 6P General] superstephan:
Well that clears things up! Thanks man!
[Nexus 6P General] nahuelarg86:
Thanks a lot man! This was very useful! I was able to sideload 6.0.1! :D
[Nexus 6P General] ultyrunner:
Quick question, and I suspect I know the answer. While not your method, if I have a unlocked bootloader, custom recovery and a kernel with no forced encryption/verity, would I be able to sideload OTA updates via custom recovery or will they simply fail?
[Nexus 6P General] superstephan:
No problem mate! glad i could help!
[Nexus 6P General] superstephan:
not entirelly sure but i suspect you need a stock recovery to flash an ota
[Nexus 6P General] grimez:
Is there a way to accomplish this without ADB? I can wait and get this done, but I've got the OTA zip sitting on my internal storage (just no option in the stock recovery to install from internal storage)...

So, I got the great idea to try to install the Galaxy s6 launcher, but failed along the way. I rooted my phone using 'CF auto root', so far, so good. And then I downloaded the Galaxy s6 touchwiz launcher and replaced it with my default launcher (Galaxy s5, touchwizhome_k). After I restarded my phone it just looks like it's set to the simple mode even though it is not. I tried factory reseting it hopeing it would go back to normal, but I didn't. Anyone that knows how to fix it?

So this is what my phone currently looks like...

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bauerat02:
I have had this issue on my stock/non-rooted N6 for a while - both on 6.0 and 6.0.1, and probably Lollipop as well. I have it set to sleep after 1 minute of inactivity, but very often it will never turn off. It will be sitting on the homescreen and stay on forever. Usually a reboot fixes it, but then it will go back to staying on. I assume it is some app running in the background that is causing the screen to stay on, but was wondering if anyone else has experienced this, or knows what app might be causing it?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Face_Plant:
Do you use any screen brightness apps like Lux? Try booting into safe mode and see if it goes away.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeprius:

You have to reflash a stock ROM using odin yes.

I can't post links to anything because I'm a newbie but ita fairly simple to do.

Search for the stock firmware for your phone, download it and odin, run Odin, put your phone in download mode (home, volume down and power) select your firmware in Ap, let it verify then hit start.

Make sure all your drivers are installed and up to date and it should recover fine

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZenithDK:
Hi,

I dropped my LG G3 D855 and the screen broke about half-way up on the phone. Touch didn't work on that lower part of the phone, and I had an LG prompt stating something along the lines of "Seems like your screen is broken, we've enabled some settings to make it easier for you to keep on using your phone".

I ordered this replacement screen + digitizer off ebay: ebay. co.uk/itm/131612105638?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Remove the space between "ebay" and ".co" to have it work.

I replaced the screen without major issues, but for some reason, only the top half of the phone has working touch.

It seems to me like the bottom half, where the crack was - is not working. I am wondering if the LG software in any way could have disabled part of the screen?

I already tried to do a factory reset, no luck.

Any ideas?

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WildcatPhan:
I have given up on this POS tablet from Asus. I would like to root it and load a custom ROM. Mostly as an exercise in the process, but also as the ONLY possibility of making it useful. It has the much reported problem of not loading the touch screen drivers about 99.9% of the time.

I couldn't determine the exact model that I have. So I called Asus and, finally after a long process, gave them the serial number and was told this is an Asus Transformer TF0310C. I have been searching and searching and can't find a custom ROM for this model. Can anyone point me to a source for a reliable ROM I can install on this POS?

Thank you very, very much.

I can also test. I have xt1541, official cm13.1 nightly and my bootlogo is the official Motorola stitch logo. I'd really like the stitch boot animation. Thanks
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] SenorChang:
Unfortunately I don't have time to work on this right now. In case you'd like to test this on your own, I'll post what I've got so far. If anyone figures it out I can update my flashable zip files.

First off, as you probably already know flashing the logo is pretty much the same no matter what ROM you're using, so that doesn't change.

Changing the boot animation is trickier. The boot animation is stored in /system/media/bootanimation.zip and is played by a binary file located at /system/bin/bootanimation.

If you look at the bootanimation.zip file from most Android ROMs, it contains a bunch of images. Motorola, however, uses MP4 video files. In order to allow these, they've made their own custom bootanimation binary that plays the video files.

On a Motorola ROM, all you have to change is /system/media/bootanimation.zip. But on other ROMs, you'll also need to change /system/bin/bootanimation. I tried this, however, and it hasn't seemed to work yet. I'm not sure what the problem is. My first thought was it relies on a dynamic library, but it appears to be a static binary:

$ ldd bootanimation
not a dynamic executable

So my guess at the moment is either I'm not successfully copying the bootanimation binary, or it isn't compatible for some other reason.

If you want to play around, I put my progress in a separate branch here:

https://github.com/bmaupin/motorola-boot-animations/tree/custom-roms

The Motorola bootanimation binary that needs to be copied is here (just click RAW to download it):

https://github.com/bmaupin/motorola-boot-animations/blob/custom-roms/bootanimation

You can get the stitch bootanimation.zip from here:

https://github.com/bmaupin/motorola-boot-animations/tree/custom-roms/boot-animations/stitch

And last but not least, the script I was working on to update the boot animation is here:

https://github.com/bmaupin/motorola...ms/META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script

Good luck, and let me know if I can be of any help.
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] tzzeri:
People have gotten this working on kk and LP, there's multiple threads about it, though not on mm. However, I've found most of the Motorola boot animations converted to regular ones (images from the mp4), however I haven't found that for the stitch animation
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] SenorChang:
I looked into converting the stitch animation to the AOSP format (with images). The problem is the resulting files are huge because the stitch animation has a textured background. The resulting file would be > 60 MB and the quality still isn't very good.

Looking further into getting the bootanimation binary file working, one issue could be SELinux. Here's something you could try:

Connect to your device

adb shell
su

Remount /system as read-write

mount -o remount,rw /system

List the security context and permissions of /system/bin/bootanimation and copy the result somewhere

ls -Z /system/bin/bootanimation

Back up /system/bin/bootanimation

cp -p /system/bin/bootanimation /system/bin/bootanimation.bak

Copy the Motorola bootanimation binary over (get it from https://github.com/bmaupin/motorola-boot-animations/blob/custom-roms/bootanimation)

adb push bootanimation /sdcard
cp /sdcard/bootanimation /system/bin/bootanimation
chmod 775 /system/bin/bootanimation

List the security context and permissions of /system/bin/bootanimation

ls -Z /system/bin/bootanimation

If it isn't the same as before, you may need to fix it. For example (this is from a Motorola stock ROM, yours may be different):

chown root:shell /system/bin/bootanimation
chcon u:object_r:bootanim_exec:s0 /system/bin/bootanimation

Lastly, copy the stitch bootanimation.zip file (get it from here: https://github.com/bmaupin/motorola-boot-animations/tree/custom-roms/boot-animations/stitch) to /system/media/bootanimation.zip and reboot.

I'm still not expecting it to work, but if you want to be my guinea pig you can try.

After rebooting, if it doesn't work, you can check to see if it's an SELinux issue like this:

adb shell su -c dmesg | grep 'avc: '

You could also try to run the bootanimation binary directly:

adb shell su /system/bin/bootanimation

I'm guessing that won't work either, but it may provide valuable feedback.
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] SenorChang:
Somehow I missed this before. Added to compatibility list. Thanks!
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] SenorChang:
The boot animations should be compatible with all variants of the Moto G, although only with the stock ROM right now.

As I mentioned in the first post, the installation instructions are here (including manual installation if you want to tinker):

https://github.com/bmaupin/motorola-boot-animations/wiki/Installation
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] tzzeri:
I haven't done the adb stuff yet, but I put the bootanimation file in system bin and the the boot animation zip in system media, set the right permissions, and then, when I set selinux as permissive, i get about half a second of the bootanimation, but then I just get a black screen. That's with a soft reboot, because I haven't found a way yet to set selinux as permissive without it being reset with a hard reboot. I'll hopefully try the advice stuff later.
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] SenorChang:
Okay, try this:

Connect to your device

adb shell
su

Remount /system as read-write

mount -o remount,rw /system

Run the following commands, and paste the output here

getenforce
restorecon -v /system/bin/bootanimation
restorecon -v /system/media/bootanimation.zip
grep /system/media/bootanimation.zip /file_contexts
grep /system/media /file_contexts
grep /system /file_contexts | head -n 1
ls -Z /system/media/bootanimation.zip
ls -l /system/media/bootanimation.zip
grep /system/bin/bootanimation /file_contexts
ls -Z /system/bin/bootanimation
ls -l /system/bin/bootanimation
ls -ld /data/local
ls -dZ /data/local/moodle
ls -ld /data/local/moodle

Leave SELinux enabled/enforcing and reboot the device normally and let me know what happens

If it fails:

Connect to your device again:

adb shell

Give me the output of this command:

dmesg | grep avc

And send me this file:

adb pull /sepolicy
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] tzzeri:
I renamed sepolicy to sepolicy.txt so it will be a supported file type to upload.

I've had selinux disabled, though this method is applied only after boot, though it still didn't work with a soft boot, and then it's stays permissive
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] tzzeri:
[MENTION=3084407]SenorChang[/MENTION]

I took a log while soft rebooting. Here's the few logs that relate to the bootanimation. It seems like the problem is the media player.

Ps, when I do a full reboot, it shows the SOL the whole time, and at the end it does the actual boot animation, though I think it's already booted by then as the screen can turn off in the middle, while with soft rebooting it shows the SOL for half a second as it should and then a black screen.

I can take a log of a full boot later
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] SenorChang:
Hmm, after doing some more research I think we'll need to try a different approach.

If I have any breakthroughs I'll let you know.
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] Alex Smith-Fanning:
Do you want the stitch boot animation that works with the Cyanogen Theme Engine? I ported it a few weeks ago and didn't know if anybody else would want it.
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] SenorChang:
I did quite a bit of testing and research, and as best as I can tell this simply won't work with the SELinux configuration that CM ships with. Rules would need to be added to SELinux for it to work, and in order for you to do this you'd have to modify the boot image and then reflash it to your device since it's a read-only filesystem.

So the alternative is to convert all the boot animations to the AOSP format, which CM uses. This will work, but the downside is the files are bigger and the quality isn't going to be as good. I've created one for the stitch animation you can try out if you want. First, you'll need to put your phone back the way it was:

Remount /system as read-write

su
mount -o remount,rw /system

Restore the original bootanimation binary. I've attached it (bootanimation.txt) in case you didn't back it up.

mv /sdcard/bootanimation.txt /system/bin/bootanimation
chmod 755 /system/bin/bootanimation
chown root:root /system/bin/bootanimation

Restore the original boot animation. I attached it as well (bootanimation.zip).

mv /sdcard/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
chmod 644 /system/media/bootanimation.zip
chown root:root /system/media/bootanimation.zip

Do a full reboot (not a soft reboot) and make sure the boot animation works

If everything seems to be working fine, boot to recovery and flash the zip file here:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24539867161559227

If that works, would you mind testing a couple more? I put them all here:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=45719

Thanks!
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] tzzeri:
Thanks a lot. It works perfectly. I'll test the others later, though they should probably work also, though a few of those animations are already on XDA
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] SenorChang:
Excellent, thanks.

Yeah, it was just easier for me to create all of them instead of just one.
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] SenorChang:
I've added the new Lenovo dots animation from the 2016 Moto G released yesterday and moved the custom ROM packages to github:

I like the new animation, though they're clearly pushing the Lenovo brand, but that's fine with me. It's the first deviation from a boot animation with an M in a large circle in the Moto g lineup
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] tzzeri:
[MENTION=3084407]SenorChang[/MENTION] where did you get the dots animation from?
[Moto G 2015 Themes and Apps] SenorChang:
