You cannot just change the kernel and software number to use the MOD, as of this post the RUU will downgrade you to the proper version needed for this ROM though.

I am working on updating the ROM to work with the latest kernel and software version. Stay tuned.
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
New Download is up, for anyone running firmware version 1.23.155.0.3 and up, the new download *should* fix wifi, just install via TWRP using the same instructions as previous version.
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
Am I able?

Will I be able to do this now? Also how would I get TWRP I have Cyanogen Recovery, but not TWRP.
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Check the other 626 sub Forums.
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
Alright, thank you will do, also will this work on the most recent kernel version? :D

Post #43: "New Download is up, for anyone running firmware version 1.23.155.0.3 and up, the new download *should* fix wifi, just install via TWRP using the same instructions as previous version." yes ;)
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
Thank you for all the answers to my questions, one more thing can I flash the TWRP img with Cyanogen Recovery to be able tgechange the recovery to TWRP?
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Errrr, CWM might not have the option to flash, use Fastboot: (Boot phone into download mode, then on the PC fastboot flash boot boot.img)
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
Installing TWRP is not going well I tried to flash it through Factbook, but it's not working. Do I have to rename the file? Or is it possible that you could provide a step by step guide on flashing TWRP.?
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Where did you get twrp?

Make sure you are in download (black background in boot loader) not boot loader mode (white background)

Fastboot flash recovery name-of-recovery.img
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
I got TWRP from here http://xdaforums.com/desire-626/development/desire-626s-root-t3249254

And I was on the one with the black background.
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Boot loader oem unlocked?
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
Yes, I forgot what the command that I had to put into command prompt to Fastboot TWRP.
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
I was able to get TWRP to flash, but when I go to Aparted and try to unmount it says unmount failed. So I went to settings and unmounted from there, but when I flash the .img file it doesn't go through, it brings me to a screen that says enter password to start Android.
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Then you partitioned the scdard incorrectly.
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Follow the instructions again and be sure to leave at least 100MB for the fat32 partition.
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
I did, I left a good amount of MBs.
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
I would still redo the instructions from start to finish, when that message pops up it means the partition table on the sdcard is corrupt. Easy fix is repartition it.
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
Okay, I'm going to retry it, but when I'm on Aparted and it says failed to unmount what do I do?
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Before using apart you need to manually unmount the sdcard in the settings.
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
Ohhhh okay I'm going to try now, but what about when I press apply changes and it says unmount ingredients will it go through?
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
As long as the SD card is unmounted before you press apply changes it will work. To test further, after it applies changes, take the SD card out of the phone and put it back in. If the phone says "Unsupported SD card" or similar sparred failed. If no error message. Flash the modded boot.img and reboot.
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
Thank you soo much for the help I was able to get the MOD working. Keep up the great work!
[Desire 626 Android Development] Smdh:
I need some help. I installed your advanced stock rom, did my backups, using twrp. However, this mod is giving me hell. I was wondering if you could tell me how to restore my backup from a copied file on my pc back into extra SD card in twrp so I can flash it and be back to the restored rom, etc.
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Well, if you need to flash the original bootloader (should be in the OP if needed)

Then reformat the sd card in android and then put your backup back.
[Desire 626 Android Development] Smdh:
um..

well, I cant locate the bootloader info in the OP. But, I did go to a different website to gain more knowledge and info in order to simply flash the original bootloader and reformat the sd card in android and then put my backup back.

What I ended up doing was relocking my bootloader, installing the custom recovery...and now I'm on the download screen without an operating system or so it indicates...

I cant seem to find out how to put my back up back on my sd card so that my recovery can SEE and IDENTIFY it so I can flash it back... AND.... I did everything you said to do with the partitioning app on this mod..and I believe I had it down perfect and working..but I decided the storage space split I did was way too short, being new to this part of android and I wanted to change it to give it more space...and thats when I screwed up.

I went back into the app you said to download and i plus signed twice...did the fat 32 and the ext4 partitions..and set the storage space. Because it only set in MB, I asked google and was told 1 GB = 1000 MB. So I set it at 1100 mb in fat 32 and 2100 mb in ext 4 and flash into recovery again and wiped...and was put into bootloop.

I should have asked but didnt want to be belittled, shamed, or given a pretty smug and not really an answer answer like I seem to get pretty regularly here. I'm new. I'm trying to learn. And now I'm frustrated and dont even want to know how to do anything at all anymore pretaining to any mobile device. Except, correcting my issues now and getting my phone back...without root. I went in over my head. Shame on me.

Thank you for all that you do...I idolized you.

If you can help me, I appriciate it. I think it has something to do with the partition settings causing me to stay in boot loop and not seeing my rom on my sd card.

I had to format my sd card through my pc after I messed with this mod just to see the damn things again. Then I redownloaded the rom and moved it to sd card. but its not showing... =(

again..thank you.
[Desire 626 Android Development] Smdh:
My apologies..

Frustrated.

I found the original bootloader link on your rom op thread this was linked in.

I will first flash that as you said.

I've already formatted the SD card using my pc. Since my wifi broke, I flashed UR version in twrp, so I'll try that, if that doesn't work, I'll try the original ruu for my version. I just learned that I will have to flash original before flashing anything else...

What can I say except you definitely deserve a donate or two from me... :D.

I started working on a HTC desire 626s and a Galaxy Light which are both in bootloop. But, I've come in and out of bootloop and flashing just trying to learn, like always...the hard way.

Hugs? I'm not a guy so.... :)
[Desire 626 Android Development] Jir0nimo35:
Thank you!!!

Haven't done it yet, but I just want to say thank you for breaking this down. I couldn't try any other mods because I didn't understand what some things meant and just didn't have the time to search back and forth. But you put everything all together in one place. Finally I have more than 2 apps on my phone!!! You're The best.
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
No problem! Glad my thread helped. Good to seen another Doctor Who fan here in the Android Forums.
[Desire 626 Android Development] Jir0nimo35:
Im so lost.

Is there a video tutorial by chance?
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
There is not, and I unfortunately do not plan on making one, I am getting a new phone soon as an upgrade.
[Desire 626 Android Development] kdayyy:
What is the modded kernel for? Does it format SD card if I flash it?
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Read the OP
[Desire 626 Android Development] kdayyy:
Will it work for 1.23.53.0.3 kernel?
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Read the OP.
[Desire 626 Android Development] Smdh:
my issues..

I was unable to run the RUU on my PC because I needed to download Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Resist rib u table Package (X86) onto my PC. Once I did that, I was able to run the RUU and reset my phone to the original OS and kernel it came with, no problems at all!!

Thought I would share my solution if anyone runs into the same problem I did. Back to working as if I just bought it.

Now...to gain root again and see what else I can reek havoc on so I can fix again. Lol! Love the Rom and the Mod. I just need to figure out how to set my partition space the way I want it. 32gb card is a lot of space to play with..

Any suggestions to setting that up? I don't know if the phone has a particular amount of space it cannot exceed as far as internet memory goes. An equal amount would be awesome for me.. as the clouds I use are perfect for my music, videos, pics, etc..

Thanks to everyone for your help and posts...but especially to Sandi for taking time out of your day to pm me with additional support. You are my hero! We won't mention the costume here though... (Rotf!!! I had too... Humor does the body good)..
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
For the SD card partitioning, anything will work as long as the ext4 partition is the SECOND partition. ;)
[Desire 626 Android Development] LuciferEx:
Hi, Ived tried to install the .img file (htc626s_extData.img) in TWRP after I partitioned the SD card, but that IMG file is all what I installed and I guess I did something wrong. Everything looked fine when it first booted, it took long to boot but then the rectangle poped up saying it was optimizing the apps, like 177 apps I think, then after that it said something about contact database, then it said "finishing boot" and thats where the phone restarted and all the problems happen, also in download mode, its very slow. Now my phone boots up with the Metro-PCS boot screen then it goes to the HTC boot screen, but It stays there, after sometime the screen will go black, then I press the power button and it will show like the UI of the first setup screen, but with no text and nothing, so I can't do nothing. I think touch screen is not working aswell. I can still go to TWRP by restarting the phone using Power button + Volume Up, but I don't know how to fix the problem, I tried wiping the data from TWRP, it does the same thing but know it does not show the first setup UI, it shows the Metro PCS wallpaper, thats all. If I press the volume buttons or the power button, the screen will go black, but I can still hear the sounds of the volume going up and down. How can I fix the phone? I just bought it like 3 days ago, it still has guarantee but im afraid that metro might not change the phone becuase they might see that it has custom recovery and that stuff. Please help me fix it :s Thank you

I don't know if this helps, but I had Xposed framework before I did all that stuff, I don't know if maybe thats what caused the phone to glitch out.
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Xposed and this mod do not play nicely with each other.

It is also recommended that you use my advanced stock ROM with this mod. :)
[Desire 626 Android Development] LuciferEx:
Thank you for answering! I really prefer having xposed framework because there is modules that make my life easier, how can I revert back everything I did and fix the phone? Do I just try and install the rom? Sorry for taking your time :(
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
If you are metropcs, cricket, or T-Mobile you can restore my twrp backup of advanced stock found in these subforums.

Then flash the modded kernel again and it should work.

Xposed works with this mod, but this mod was made for my advanced stock ROM. AdvancedStock has xposed preinstalled too so no worries ;)
[Desire 626 Android Development] LuciferEx:
Aight thank you! I will install the rom. I am on MetroPCS.
[Desire 626 Android Development] LuciferEx:
How did you get the module to work? Ived downloaded it, ived made the partitions and it does not work, it keeps showing 7.51GB/8.00GB, I also tried it without making partitions and it also does not work. What are your settings? Thank you
[Desire 626 Android Development] Qujuan:
No Wifi

Well It worked for me but after final reboot and when i went to setup phone i had no wifi and now i can't turn it on...Can someone help me get my wifi back
[Desire 626 Android Development] 1equals2:
This has happened to a lot of people (myself included) if their kernel was newer than the version specified in the first post. If that is the case, you need to "restore" that version of the kernel as well. I can't tell if that was one of the links on the first page or not (it is getting a little messy and unclear what is what). I do know there is a link for it in the AdvancedStock thread (http://xdaforums.com/desire-626/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-12-1-htc-626s-t3261367), but it is also messy and hard to tell what is what there. The relevant line on that page (which is somewhat easy to spot) is this:

If you download what's at that link and use TWRP to restore it over your boot partition you should get your wi-fi back.
[Desire 626 Android Development] Qujuan:
Yea I did that and when Replaced the Data Kernel with the 1 from that link when my phone rebooted I had my wifi back but my data had reverted back to how it was before ....I may try it again when i get home from work
[Desire 626 Android Development] 1equals2:
Oh yeah :silly:

I forgot this data mod is in the kernel, so doing that would completely remove this mod. Sorry.
[Desire 626 Android Development] Qujuan:
Do you know a another way to install/Store data on sd or even write to the sd.....
[Desire 626 Android Development] 1equals2:
There were a couple mentioned earlier in the thread, but they seemed to be a little unreliable. Did you try this kernel mod in combination with the AdvancedStock rom? Maybe you are using this older kernel but the standard, newer stock rom. These two do roms work together with wi-fi working.
[Desire 626 Android Development] Qujuan:
Im just going to wait till some make a better way....Untill then ill just live with root and ill use Gl to sd for game data backup....I found a app that let me download my utorrent files to my sd
[Desire 626 Android Development] Surj138:
I'm using this Xposed module to allow R/W to external sdcard, if it helps
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
So just to clarify can both this MOD and the advanced stock rom work together?
[Desire 626 Android Development] wilbigdaddy2000:
Yea it does. I have them on mine right now. Works 100%.
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
So a class 10 Samsung 32 gb SD card would be the best? If not what would be?
[Desire 626 Android Development] xBeastyboyx:
Can you help me get both of them to work because when I have the advanced stock rom loaded and then flash the SD card MOD I loose access to Wifi and when I try to fix it I loose access to the SD card MOD.
[Desire 626 Android Development] wilbigdaddy2000:
You have to reboot the phone after each flash. You can't flash the mod with other flashes at the same time. Like after you flash super su zip, reboot. Then go back to recovery and flash the mod,reboot. This process works for me.

---------- Post added at 01:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:07 AM ----------

Trying to partition my newly bought 64gb SanDisk sdcard. I broke one using aparted for whatever reason when the process starts the sdcard come up as emptier and it the phone says the sdcard is empty or has an invalid file system before the process can complete. Then when I reboot. It says the card is broken. Exchanged for a new one and I am afraid of the same happening. I can do it no problem with my 32gb sdcard but I need more space. Can somebody help me please.
[Desire 626 Android Development] rfoster2009:
This mod is pretty cool, but I found after using it for a few months my overall phone performance tanked, not to mention the noticeably longer start time. That's with me using a Samsung class 10 64 GB card.

I did find an app in the play store that moves not only the apk, but also the oob, lib, and other related items to the SD, thereby freeing up space. If I like it, I may get the pro version. I may cook it up too in honor of [MENTION=3100103]sandix[/MENTION].
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Yeah, using the External SD Card is unfortunately slow, even more so when you have a lot of apps running in the background reading and writing to the SD Card :( But I did what I could with what I had at the time.

Now that I have a new phone I may be able to hardware mod a larger nand onto the device, but I'd rather not have anybody risk a hard brick.

One thing you can try is using USB OTG as the external data source. USB is much faster than the sd card.
[Desire 626 Android Development] 31ken31:
Is there a reason that after installing mod my wifi quits?
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
You are on the wrong baseband/kernel and were too updated before running this. Read the OP before flashing non-OEM kernels.

[Desire 626 Android Development] someshet:
after following the steps on the latest firmware, it is still stuck on the htc boot screen for 30+ minutes...
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Read OP, this mod requires SPECIFIC firmware, which itself is pretty old.
[Desire 626 Android Development] Cleon I:
I'm trying to revert back to before executing this MOD. I'm on the latest firmware which I got OTA before trying this, which I am back on now (I didn't see the download meant for my firmware. ) I restored a backup but I can't download any apps, it gives me an error in Playstore. I formatted the external card from the normal menu under Storage.
[Desire 626 Android Development] ninja1972:
Which ap are you speaking of if you don't mind me asking ?
[Desire 626 Android Development] rfoster2009:
Search for App2SD in the Play Store. It moves the lib, data, oob, etc., to the external then makes a symbolic link to the folders on the internal memory.
[Desire 626 Android Development] kinjatt:
hey great tut, I wonder if the partition couls be made with the twpr partition option, if so how could it be made?
[Desire 626 Android Development] kinjatt:
I just bricked my phone after hours of trying to expand the memory :(

Please help!!!!! I have just bricked my phone. I followed everything but I didnt know where to put the img file I couldnt find the internal sd card file location. And I couldn't do it with aparted so I did it with Mini tool Partition Wizard. Today is my birthday and this happens please help. I did the back up and I copied it on my PC only after the date folder.

Please help me it'd be a good bday present :(
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
Just restore the backup:

Boot into TWRP

Plug into computer

Copy backup to internal SD cards TWRP/backups folder

Then restore.
[Desire 626 Android Development] i2andog:
Last night I reverted back to stock to receive the MM update. Which I did then I flashed twrp via fastboot and rooted phone. At that point the phone worded perfectly, but me being myself was far from content with only twrp and a rooted MM update that probably most ppl would love to be able to have but cant figure out how to do it. Anyways I wanted all of the storage I was accustom to thanks to this mod. In hind sight everything is 20/20 and I can only blame my lack of common sense on being very tired. I attempted the mod around 3am not even thinking anything about the boot partition mod. Looking back I can see how retarded it was. Either way my problem remains the same. For some reason only known to god my metro pcs ruu is failing everytime. I am quite certain that all I need is a boot partition for MM. Can someone please create a backup of an unmodified boot partition and send it my way.... That would be t!tt!es. Thank you in advance.
[Desire 626 Android Development] f1tzg3r4ld:
I would be willing to make the backup. What boot partition do you need and where would I find it.
[Desire 626 Android Development] i2andog:
Thank you for your willingness in helping me with an old problem. I do not own the desire anymore and to be honest I can't remember if I ever was able to get that phone working again or not. But again thank you... I really appreciate your willingness to help me even if now it's obsolete.
[Desire 626 Android Development] fischerms:
I have done some thing like with my now dead Moto E 2015 3g. Verizon HTC 626 has the ability to put apps out on the SD card natively. Problem is after a month or so the SD card dismounts it self then remounts it self. This has occurred on both HTC 626 and the old MOTO E (partion card setup). Test 1 app at time as some apps are more suitable of being move to the SD card then others.
[Desire 626 Android Development] sandix:
yea... this mod is *not* apps2sd. It is DATA2SD meaning the whole phones /userdata (apps, settings, and MORE) are on the SDCard, as an example run this mod, setup the phone, REMOVE the SDCARD and restore stock kernel and you have to setup the phone again.

[Verizon LG G3] mean_liar:
I've managed to take a stock Verizon 35B phone, and:

...downgrade it to 10B

...root it

...install TWRP

At this point, the SIM still works, I connect to the Verizon network, things seem good, but I'm trying to get to a Skydragon v6.0.2 install.

So, I then proceed to:

...grab the 35B modem from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=56005257

(I've also tried the 35B bootstack from http://xdaforums.com/verizon-lg-g3/development/xdabbeb-s-vs980-2-0-0-t3231279 )

...install Skydragon v6.0.2 from http://xdaforums.com/verizon-lg-g3/development/dec-9-skydragon-g3-vs985-kvt49l-vs98512b-t2967868

(I've tried both the stock and custom kernal)

I'm flashing the 35B modem then the ROM via TWRP. On reboot, while the system seems to work, the SIM card simply isn't ever recognized and I can't get on the Verizon network.

The Status lists "unknown" for my phone number, IMEI, and basically all settings, and under Software Info by Baseband version is also unknown. So I think that means there's something wrong with the modem, yes?

How can I get to a functional Skydragon ROM?
[Verizon LG G3] bweN diorD:
looks to me like your imei got wiped at some point. hopefully you made an efs backup, then you can restore it simply. if not, search down through this help forum for the thread describing the fix.
