One second. I am trying something else real quick. Using ODIN to flash back to stock firmware. Was stuck in a recovery bootloop. Will report back in a few.

---------- Post added at 11:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:01 AM ----------

Nope nothing. I flashed back to stock with ODIN and was able to get it to boot. went through the initial setup and logged into the home screen. Rebooting into Download mode. Flashed CWM Recovery via odin. Did a factory reset then flashed the files in your OP. everything installed but when device reboots it keeps booting into recovery.

---------- Post added at 11:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------

Seems like the CM12.1Kernel.zip is the one causing it to reboot into recovery.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] DarkFrenzy:
Flash stock boot.img and check if it shows blankscreen, if yes than cm12.1 kernel is bad

I think I a bad kernel zip file. I will check tomorrow now I m on phone and going to sleep.

Of u want do this.

Unpack cm12.1 boot.img and cm11 boot.img then delete zImage of cm12.1 and copy cm11 zImage to cm12.1 boot folder,than pack cm12.1 boot.img and flash that
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] GuestK00202:
:( don't have the ability to unpack .img's

---------- Post added at 02:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------

Yup, black screen with stock Kernel. Flasked CM12.Kernel and goes right to recovery bootloop
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] DarkFrenzy:
i have attached the boot img zip file. flash it
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] lilferraro:
I am wondering if it worked or not before I try. It would be nice to see some roms for this variant. Also the MEGA download link says that download is corrupted.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] DarkFrenzy:
i am trying to get a fast internet package to upload the rom. DO YOU USE SIM CARD WITH THIS TABLET ? THIS TAB IS LOCKED SO CAN USE SIM CARD, THATS WHY DONT KNOW IF SIM IS WORKING
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] lilferraro:
I don't use the sim on my tablet and from what I've been reading, most ppl with this device don't use 4g, only WiFi. Keep up the good work man. I'll test if u need someone. I was about to start building from source but found no available source to start from
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] DarkFrenzy:
Do u know how to build a kernel? This tab3 has only Cm10 and Cm11 kernel (boot.img) cm10 kernel don't have flickering issue, but cm11 has. I use cm11 kernel when I need Wi-Fi and to play game that need sensor like temple run.but for movies I flash cm10 kernel.

If u build a kernel for this device than it will be very nice.

I saw a kernel source in github.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] lilferraro:
I only know the basics. I'll see what sources they have on GitHub, fork it, Download source(slow cuz I only have 3mb connection), borrow some commits(from s4 mini?), setup the defconfig, and compile on old machine(Celeron dual core 1.7ghz with 4gb of ram). That could take a while... and I'm not familiar with decompiling an already built kernel for different roms. It sounds like u have cm12 working with wifi? Could you upload it or any rom for us while I try to work on finding source? I know [MENTION=593681]negamann303[/MENTION] has 3 kernels built, a rom, and 3 different recoveries on android file host.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] DarkFrenzy:
yes, i will try to upload it. Now i have made the zip ready. i dumped the system image and converted to .dat so the rom will have google play store installed and xposed install u need to install the apk only to get xposed.

Sim card is also working as i see Invalid SimCard - no service it means sim card work but no service becasue sim card is not sprint.

only the major bug i see is screen flickering and lightening (flashes) which can be stopped u sing CM10 zImage.

So if u know to play with zImage , can u extract it and see why the flickering is happening

u can try to fix flickering when u get the rom. i can't fix that as i have no linux system and no knowledge of it.
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] lilferraro:
Sometimes a quick fix for screen flickering is disabling hw overlays option in developer settings.... As For an update on sources, I have all the device files/proprietary files but I was looking through the sources on github and it seems that the kernels for our device have been crammed together with source from the serrano (s4mini?)and it looked messy. No wonder why they couldn't get wifi to work. Leaving me with [MENTION=593681]negamann303[/MENTION] kernel but that's close to stock and if not careful and have the same firmware base that he's using (nk1?), then i could be left with something not working, usually wifi, or sound. I'll try to find something better suited for cyanogenmod before i just try to slap something together. But anyways, that's good news that everything seems to be working on your end. When/where will u upload the rom for testing?
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] DarkFrenzy:
upload is in progress.. withing 8 hours i will post.

disabling hw overley option fixes the small flickering, but the other flickering (some light flashed i dont know what it is) remains.You will get to know that when u get the rom. i m going to sleep and will getup after 7 hours and will post.

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS

https://github.com/xInterlopeRx/android_kernel_samsung_msm8930-common/tree/cm-11.0/kernel
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] lilferraro:
Yea thats the kernel i seen that had s4mini code in it. Now thats okay, but only for things like the processor (cuz its th same i think) but its not so good for things like the camera or wifi or Bluetooth drivers, if theyre not the exact same. But I cant wait to check it out! I didnt know you were in another country. Im in the U.S. and just woke up like 2 hrs ago. Get some rest and ill be looking for the upload in like 8hrs or so. Thanks again.

also i can and will be able to mess around with the zimage .
[Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 Android Development] DarkFrenzy:
HERE IS THE ROM. TEST IT

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-3/development-7/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-t3285401

If u can play with zImage plz try to find what is that causes lightening type of flickering. In Cm10 zImage it doesnt happen, but if i use cm10 zImage , no wifi and sensor will not work.

So I have noticed over the past few weeks that my Bluetooth is the biggest user of power on my phone. Today I haven't gone anywhere or connected to Bluetooth at all. Last night I transferred some pictures using Bluetooth, but that only took a few minutes. I am attaching a screen shot of the Bluetooth usage and one of my SOT. SOT is nearly two hours yet its used less battery. Can anyone explain this? Is anyone else seeing similar usage on their device? Thanks.View attachment 3594090View attachment 3594091
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zepman_us01:
I'm having the same issue.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
Interesting. Lets see if anyone else chimes in on this one. Mine is very consistently using the most power of anything on my phone. Almost like its always searching for BT connections or something. I would really like to hear what others are experiencing with BT power usage. Just put mine on the charger and it had used 851 mAh and was 21% of my batteries drain. The only usage it got today was during a trip out much earlier today when it was connected to my vehicles BT for phone calls only, no media streaming. Total driving was about 50 minutes.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrMeeseeks:
I have this problem as well. There is a thread about it in the Nexus 6p forum and another on Reddit. Most of them are blaming the GasBuddy app, but I don't use that app so I'm not convinced that it is just app related. I only keep Bluetooth on in the car or when I'm wearing my 360 but it shoots to the top of my battery stats when I do.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
Wow that's really interesting since I have the Gas Buddy app installed. Gonna remove it and see what happens. Thanks for the input, and I'll report back later today on my findings.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
No joy, Gas Buddy app is not causing the issue on my phone. Bluetooth is still using the most battery. Furthermore the battery life seems to be terrible in general. Went to bed with a full charge and woke up and phone was down to 90%. To me that seems like way too much drain with MM and the supposed doze feature. Not so sure about this build of MM on the Moto X Pure, it doesn't seem that Motorola did their homework properly before releasing this update. Still would like to hear from more people and if they are having this issue as well.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eregev:
Try better battery stats. It'll tell you very very specifically what's sucking your juice the most.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
So I bought the app but I'm going to need a little help in figuring out how it is supposed to help me, or what I should be looking for exactly to narrow down the massive Bluetooth drain. I see there are tons of settings and I'm sure there is a tutorial somewhere, but if you could point me in the right direction that would be much appreciated. Thanks.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eregev:
Charge up one night, and then unplug and use the phone normally the next day. As you near 20% battery, go to BBS and check the different pages (switched with the top dropdown menu). Focus on partial wakelocks, kernel wakelocks, and alarms. If some app or services pops out to you and looks like an obvious drain, try removing it and seeing if you drain is resolved. Otherwise, post screenshots and let's see if I or anyone else here can figure out what's taking so much battery through bluetooth.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mademan420:
This is what i'm seeing on my end and I never turn off BT using my moto 360(daily), car's BT(daily), and LG BT headset(most days). Stock rooted here.

UPDATE: Forgot to mention that I'm using Greenify with aggressive doze plus shallow hibernation and Naptime with aggressive doze enabled.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
That looks total normal. I'm about to post mine again here in a moment but you will see my BT usage is way more than that. I only took a 15 minute drive today so that should be the only BT usage that occurred. But even when I was sleeping last night the phone drained 10%, that can't be right. As soon as I woke up I looked at the battery stat's and wouldn't you know BT was at the top! Something is not right. I might try a reset to see if that fixes it. Before doing that I was trying to get others to weigh in and see if they are seeing the same things. Thanks.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
Here is my new screen shots. If someone notices something glaringly bad, let me know. Thanks.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mademan420:
Have you tried deleting any BT pairings then repairing them:confused:
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
I just deleted two of the 3 pairings I had. Don't want to delete my vehicle pairing so I left that one. I'm going to charge the phone and see what I get through the end of work tomorrow. My phone will be used minimally the rest of this evening and I can't take it into my building at work so it will sit in the car for 8 hours. So the only BT usage will be the 20 minute drive to work in the morning. We will see what happens. Thanks for the input and if anyone sees anything wrong with the screen shots I posted, let me know.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eregev:
I see it says no signal, no data connection 100%. That'll definitely kill your battery trying to get service. Now in other scree shots it seems you have plenty of wifi and cell, so why does BBS think you're out of range?? Interesting.

Also, weather bug seems to be very very high usage. Try uninstalling it. I know that Google Play services location scanning sometimes utilizes Bluetooth to try to determine location. That might be the major drain since WeatherBug is always checking for location.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
I was thinking the No Signal thing might have been because I was on WiFi. Although I know my cell signal is still active just not the LTE data connection. I noticed it to but just didn't know how to correctly analyze it properly. I guess I will check in again tomorrow and report my results. If it's still bad I think I will do a factory reset and install only the essential app's to start and then the others to see if it's an app that is causing the problem. Could be quite a painstaking process.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eregev:
Ahh, the LTE/WIFI thing makes a lot of sense: I agree with your assumption. I really think that weatherbug should be eliminated for your test tomorrow. Best case it's the culprit, worst case you're still going to wipe/add apps one by one as your next step.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
So here are my results from the last 21+ hours. I have not used the phone much at all. I think one call has been placed during this time period. My SOT is minimal but still after deleting two of my three paired Bluetooth devices, things are looking much better. Still a fair amount of Bluetooth usage but not 20% like before. I think it may have been my computer that was causing the problem. Phone might have been continually trying to negotiate a connection with it even though I wasn't transferring files or anything. Here are the screen shots.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eregev:
Well, that's a dramatic difference. Didn't know you had it paired to a computer. I don't know about Mac, but windows has historically always tried staying connected to my phone just in case I wanted to us it as a modem. It also didn't use any low power Bluetooth like the 360 does. I agree, I think the pc was your battery thief.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robn30:
I think it certainly wasn't helping the situation that's for sure. I am still seeing quite a large battery drain from Bluetooth. I am still on the charge from nearly two days ago but the BT is still number 2 on the usage list. So I must have an app that is doing something. Is there an easy way that I could track down that app? I hate to perform a factory reset and have to re-setup my phone all over again. Here the few screen shots I took earlier. Shows my BT usage compared to SOT over nearly 2 days on a single charge.

Seem to have missed Kindle from title!

I have followed the various processes suggested on XDA and other rooting sites including 15 second root tool.

my issue is that when trying to update the drivers to the latest ADB versions in Windows 10 via device manager it states that the files do not contain a driver, and I should check they are x64 compatible. I have already disabled the signature verification requirement and in have downloaded the drivers from various sources including the actual verified Google ones.

What am I missing? The device manager always comes up with an MTP driver listed and and then when I go to "have disk" it fails as already described.

I'm not a techie so apologies if I have this soooo wrong, I am enjoying the foray into your world however, thanks in advance and pls be gentle!!

Has anyone tried to upload 4K resolution video to YouTube? Every time I try to do so, it says "Failed (Can't process file)." It seems this has something to do with a wrong codec or something. I'd really like to upload 4K videos. It would be neat to see what a 4K video looks like from this phone.

[AT&T LG G4] tsmith154:
I have a new AT&T Lg G4 with the latest updates. I have not activated it yet. I am using my Samsung GS4 with a custom rom on it. This rom allows me to use my hot spot free. I have a grand father unlimited data plan. I have been doing this for about 6 plus months. I use about 60 gig a month.

I have not found away to get my LG G4 to use the hot spot free (via. what I have read and tried nothing yet. since I have not activated it yet and don't want to until I have a plan). But I always found while reading there is no good way to do it reliably.

This is my question: Do you think if I connect my phones via usb and use the (now activated) LG G4 as my data source then turn on my (now deactivated) GS4 wifi hot spot. Would I in the end have a usable wi fi hot spot.
[AT&T LG G4] NexusFan9219:
I have an AT&T unlocked, using it on MetroPCS with an unlimited plan. Unless you're using the phone on AT&T, the wifi hotspot will not work but I was able to enable it by modifying the settings.db with a SQ editor, and with some changes in the APN, it's now working. The data I use doesn't show on the hotspot usage, so I guess it's possible to use as much as you want.
[AT&T LG G4] tsmith154:
Thank you, I will look more into how you did that. I don't know the details but with some work searching... When I was searching before I just never found someone saying it worked on the version I have.

LG G4 AT&T android version 5.1 Build number LMY47D Software version H81010o and finally Security software version MDF v1.1 Release 5.

I read some where that If I can't get the wi fi hot spot to work I could use the usb cable to connect to another device to share the internet. Well I know my GS4 can broadcast wi fi so I thought I would plug the lg g4 to the GS4 and create a hot spot that way.

I will look into what you talked about more. Thanks for your feed back. Greatly appreciate it.
[AT&T LG G4] tsmith154:
Searching a lot tonight and I found this from another post; does this look like what you did or close to it?

https://pmf.silvrback.com/fixing-tethering-on-android-kitkat

1. Enable developer mode (Go to Settings -> About phone, and click on the build number until the developer mode is enabled).

2. Enable USB debugging under Settings -> Developer options

3. Connect the device with a USB cable to a computer with the Android SDK platform tools installed

4. Start an adb shell: adb shell

5. In the adb shell, run these commands one by one:

settings put global tether_dun_required 0

settings put system tether_entitlement_check_state 0

reboot

The computer I am using at the moment is not a Windows OS so I can't try this yet. I am nervous about rooting this phone because I see so many posts about un-rooting. It looks like there are a lot of people who wished they did not root. Using the computer looks like I do not need to root to attempt this.

Anymore thoughts anyone?
[AT&T LG G4] NexusFan9219:
Yeah, basically I changed the tether_entitlement_check_state value to 0 using a sq editor, but you do have to be rooted to do it directly through the phone. Rooting was fairly easy for me to do, I just flashed a rooted system.img over my stock system.img. If you follow all the steps you should have no issues. I really recommend rooting, since we have a locked bootloader we can't flash custom roms yet but with root you can at least install xposed framework.
[AT&T LG G4] tsmith154:
That is good news. Thanks for helping me out.
[AT&T LG G4] tsmith154:
It has been awhile. I finally connected my phone ADB shell and verified that my phone was recognized. It showed it but also said it is unauthorized. I wonder if that is why when I run the commands I get back that "settings" is not a recognized and an internal or external command. So this method failed so far. I am trying to avoid rooting my phone. I don't mind but right now I am holding off for an easier, less dramatic method. At least I hope one will be developed.
[AT&T LG G4] tsmith154:
So far no luck with rooting or flashing any type of rom onto my LG G4.

But I have been taking the sim chip out of my LG G4 phone and sticking it into my GS4 phone (with the custom rom with hotspot working). I just connect my LG G4 to the internet with the wi/fi on it to the GS4. The original goal was to get both phones working at the same time so I can use one for a gps (without leaving that screen) and the other for msc. things while in the car. Play music, take calls through the car blue tooth, and other msc. stuff.
[AT&T LG G4] Gladpants:
This no longer works after one of the updates for MM i think it was 1021 that disabled this work around. It may have just been MM itself. If you had done this before updating to MM it stuck but after installing MM it will not allow this to be entered. Source - Had this done on JB before updating to MM and it stuck. Got boot loop phone replaced came with MM on it and was unable to enable the hotspot. If you are on 1021 you can not downgrade to JB to enable it before updating back. You are SOL sorry. I really miss this feature.
