[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akimity:
It fails to install Rom, when I go to reboot TWRP it says Kindle doesn't have root. Is there a way to check for root in TWRP. When I go to install Cyan nightly ROM i get stuck at; detected filesystem ext4 for /............ then Error; Error executing updater binary in zip

Then I downloaded a cyan release and it fails right away with Error executing updater binary in zip

I think it has something to do with not verifying root first.

If that's the case what steps should I take to get root?
[8.9" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] monster1612:
CM usually has root built in - the reason you're getting the "no root" error is likely because CM isn't flashing properly. This might be the case because your TWRP version is out of date. Download the latest TWRP zip from this thread, then flash it from TWRP, reboot back into TWRP when prompted, and then try flashing CM again.

try holding down the volume down and power buttons at the same time.

Assuming that works, hold down the same two keys while the phone is off and if it turns on, clear the cache from the menu.

I am talking about the G4 (VS986) Verizon Wireless variant with a May 2015 build date as ever since a few days ago, everytime I uninstall and reboot, it will go into a boot loop or even safe mode and one time, it just won't turn on no matter what until I did the above hard reset except this time it did the LG logo and then the Verizon Wireless logo like it was logo and was stuck there even after 2 hours which is the reason I did the wipe cache before it would work normally.

Hello @ALL

i have testet this nice rom with my charmer and it works.

it's great !!

then i buy a sdio wlan card 54 M (Ravonet / Pluscom) and it works.

I used the WM6Voip.cab, SipConfigTool_2_0_1.cab, Enchantsments.rar and a new rtcdll.dll to anable the sip-client in wm6.

it works, but there are some questions:

1. the sound works but it comes from the rear speaker. (bluetooth is ok)

2. the sound is quietly and the quality is poor.

Are there any hints about this ?

greets

This is how voip works, with rear speaker.

Possibly the internet connection wasnt good enough.

OpenVPN App

The openvpn app works fine on a my Fire-TV Gen 2 which I rooted yesterday. It shouldn't be a problem on a fire stick. The airport router lacks the ability to use openvpn.

That seems to be the quickest to to accomplish your goal & you could use vpn anywhere like when traveling in a hotel or whatever.

Can you give me a link to this app? Google link I am looking for a vpn to use on my AFTV2 but can it change my location so I can watch say USA programs in the UK Which would normally be blocked?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jbl0ggs:
Looks like there are two apps called "OpenVPN" for the FireTV/Stick...

https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_...d-keywords=openvpn&sprefix=open,undefined,148

EDIT: Nevermind...looks like not compatible with Fire TV/Stick...sorry
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C-Rooted:
Google search for openvpn APK (Site wouldn't let me post a link until I post more) this is what i found with a google search. I downloaded it from the play store on my Nexus 7 and used an apk extractor app.

2 notes.

1. It will require an openvpn config there are links within to private tunnel. I good choice for some because you pay by the data you use. not a good choice for me because I work on an offshore faucily where I live for a week at a time. The web is heavily monitored and blocks sites such as this one for some unknown reason. So I use VPN on all devices 24/7 while at work, it is more cost effective for me to pay for a service. There are also free vpn options seperate apps, not sure how they work on fire tv, you may have to experiment. popular choices are tunnel bear, vyprvpn & cyberghost.

2. The Netflix problem. Netflix put out an update a while back that causes Netflix not to work with some VPN. It has something to do with the DNS I'm still trying to find a solution for this myself. Maybe a pro can step in & fill us both in on that part of the equation. This is my 2nd time posting on this forum.

Hopefully something I said was helpful, and not to wordy. I am an XDA noob myself. playing with a rooted AFTV 2nd Gen trying to install youtube + playstore.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Y314K:
A single router VPN or double router (vpn/non-vpn) setup was the best option under Fire OS 3 (For all 1st Gen FireTV's & FireTV Sticks).

https://vpntips.com/fire-tv-vpn-install/

https://vpntips.com/how-to-unblock-any-digital-media-player/

Thanks for confirming this. I've been asking if Fire OS 5 fixed the VPN shortcomings in FireTV OS 3. Glad to know it has been resolved. Root shouldn't be a factor at all.

There won't be any FireTV listed app for OpenVPN. It's more of a universal device android app.

Found this link for the PlayStore version of one of the OpenVPN apk: http://plai.de/android/

(I would choose the latest non Pre version. Not sure why they charge for the exact same app on the Amazon Store when it's free on the PlayStore)

Here is a Amazon review with how to use a PIA setup on a Fire device with Fire OS 5 using the OpenVPN app above. Since PIA hasn't updated their PIA app in a long while. ( http://www.amazon.com/review/R29NVV...D=2350149011&store=mobile-apps#wasThisHelpful )

Hopefully someone with a FireTV Stick with voice remote that comes pre-loaded with Fire OS 5 can test a VPN setup to let us know if 1st Gen devices wont have problems with VPN anymore. My best guess is that it wont. Thanks for the confirmation.

Can someone please confirm that a PIA OpenVPN setup works on FireTV or FireTV Sticks on Fire OS 5 ???
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TuSpockShakur:
Running OpenVPN on the stick might not work, at least the way you hope. OpenVPN encryption is handled by the cpu which is really weak on the fire stick. Even if it does work you might not be able to get enough throughput to maintain a video stream.

Running OpenVPN on a router is a far better idea.

Sideload this:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.blinkt.openvpn

Works. (Tested with Kodi and other apps on 5.0.5.)

Also - this is an Open VPN client - so you have to get a VPN subscription elsewhere.

Also a thread full of people that have "heard things" but far and few between, that have actually tried out an app for themselves... Oh I'm sure the CPU is the issue here - not. *sigh*

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scoobysnack:
You can always do a double router setup. Running an APN through your router will slow your speeds but it will keep you safe. It will also give you the option on what devices to connect to what router.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ExaltedVanguard:
If you're running a VPN for privacy reasons, running it on the fire is a bad idea. There's simply too many ways for something to go wrong. If the app crashes or the VPN disconnects, your connection will leak - and you might not notice in time. Or if the power blipped in the middle of the night, the fire would just reboot and you'd never realize the vpn app had gone down unless you make it a habit of checking it every single time. Which is a PITA.

This isn't an issue if you're running it for geo-unblocking, since a connection leak just means your video pauses. Not the end of the world.

It's much better to do this upstream in the network on a device that can implement firewall rules and keep your connection 100% secure and give yourself peace of mind. If your router supports OpenVPN natively (few do), you can probably do this with no problem at all. If it doesn't, you might be able to install OpenWrt, which can 100% do exactly this. I know that for a fact because it's what I have set up right now. My old ISP throttled youtube traffic. (Yeah. Youtube. I could watch 1080p through the VPN, but without it I could only occasionally watch 720p without buffering. I was mostly stuck on 480p. That sucked.)

Placing the tunnel upstream also makes it a snap to add additional devices to the "VPN only" group.

If your main router doesn't support either option you can use a networking device as a man in the middle between your fire and your router. To do this you can use an old router in your closest or a $15 one from craigslist that supports OpenWrt. Another good option is to use a raspberry pi. Worst case, a regular old computer can do the job, although it's not power-efficient and isn't elegant or pretty.

[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] AlpineMan:
What adhesive did you use to secure the screen back to the housing? I see a lot of pre-cut adhesive stickers on ebay, and I bought a few of them. They're not as sticky as the original.
[Galaxy S 5 Accessories] Panamon:
I seem to remember purchasing one of the black ones. Mine went back on ok but you'll never get a perfect seal again so forget about water resistance. That's gone for good.

Luckily I have a Zero Lemon extended battery so the case serves to keep the glass pressed against the body of the phone. I don't think I would trust the screen to not eventually lift free if not for the overlap of the TPU cover that came with the battery.

I've replaced glass on my S3 and S4 and used TPU covers on them afterwards for the above reason. Again, once the glass or digitizer are changed, they never adhere back as well as they were from the factory.

When I unlocked the BL sunshine stayed on the unlocking part, after I paid, for almost an hour. So I hit exit and tried turning off the phone, and my phone hung up on the turning off. So I rebooted i, with vol down and power, and then the bootloader unlock warning poped up. So then I went about and got twrp through flashify, and everything seems to be working ok.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ashishcw:
Hello MedZik,

I don't think other root Programme would help as well. Since, this isn't the Problem of root app but rather the Display Firmware upgrade.

I was on 4.4.4 on xt1092, later, I had received official update for 5.0.

Recently, I had rooted my device to downgrade it to 4.4.4, all went good, but I faced moto/active Display issue. Screen randomly started flickering and no active Display.

I followed below steps, request you to try the same and see if it works.

1. Try to wipe out Cache Partition.(You can do it from fastboot menu as well.)

2. Go to the Play store and uninstall moto Display updates(if any).

3. Go to the application and there select moto Display, try Clearing the data. After a while System will Auto detect it and pop will appear to downgrade moto Display Firmware. Hit, uninstall and reboot.

This should fix your Problem.

Keep us posted.:fingers-crossed:

Hi,

I'm facing a serious issue with OPO's battery. Don't know exactly when this started to happen, but I'll give you as much details as I can.

Few days ago I was unplugging OPO from charger around 8PM with 100% battery, I felt asleep and in the morning, 12 hours later (around 8AM) the battery indicator still at 100%. I thought this is awesome battery because I turn on Wi-Fi and sync on, even though I don't touch the OPO even single time before 8AM. Few hours later battery drops normally, around 1% to 3% per hour. Until it reaches 50% to 60% when OPO turns off suddenly. When I plug the charger back, I read that battery level is too low so I can't turn on the device. But a few minutes later (still charging) I can turn on it again and strangely battery level is still at 60%. this cycle keeps happening when I charge it back to 100%, later it will turns off again around 50%-60%.

Yesterday I brought my OPO to a repair service branch in Jakarta, Indonesia and I specifically ask to replace the battery with a new one. But their representative rejects it and offer to take it around 3 weeks for repairs, with the risk of losing all my data (I guess because they want to factory reset my OPO). So I reject it (seriously 3 weeks?) and brought it back home.

I have this feeling that it's a hardware issue (the battery itself) rather than software issues. Because it's happen a long way after I upgraded OPO to Lollipop (forgot the codename) and still happen on the latest OTA release. OPO itself is not rooted and I use stock CM ROM.

Seriously need help. Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English.

You need to be rooted for this. Go to /data/system/batterystats.bin and delete the file. Turn off your phone and charge it uninterruptedly. Done!

You can use a battery calibration App, both of them work the same way. But you need to be rooted. Cheers!
