You can just test the kernel if you want, but make sure you have make a backup of the kernel in CWM / TWRP. (Just in case you have problems).

NOTE: Most kernels are based to ROMS from the developer. Always read the thread if your ROM works with the kernel you want to install, or you will get bootloops :silly:

I use the AK kernel (AK.311.OP1.CM.zip) --> Link

Alot of users prefare AK kernel over Franco kernel, but you have to try it for yourself.

Do not attempt to install Franco Kernel. The last version he made is compatible with COS12. Right now there's only one kernel made specifically for COS12.1.1 and its Boeffla (4.2 Beta 2). You can try AK cause it's using a special format that makes it compatible with almost any 5.1.1 based CM ROM (311)

This seemingly small embellishment is just so darn useful it would be great if Xioami got around to incorporating it. I was using my old LG phone the other day to keep track of time while working on a dirty project, and the ability to double-tap to wake the screen with whatever portion of my fingers/knuckles which were clean at the moment was a real lifesaver. I forgot how truly useful it is, and I definitely miss it on the RN2!

[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] verbage:
Thanks, socolino, for the suggestion about the Knockr app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tecnology.angs.knockr). I've taken a look, and, of course, while this app does its best to mimic DT2W, it is pretty much a kludge. It basically just turns the screen black to simulate it being shut off, but it actually keeps the phone awake. So this means a massive hit on battery life. And there is other collateral, too, because the phone doesn't actually go to sleep. For example, the notification LED does not get activated because the phone is not actually sleeping. And supposedly the power button doesn't turn the screen on as expected (i.e. get rid of the black mask).

Anyway, thanks again for the suggestion.

[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kusala:
As a workaround, I use the WakeUp Touch L Free app. With the correct settings, it wakes the screen virtually every time by double tapping the proximity sensor. I haven't noticed any battery drain using it. Here are screenshots of the WakeUp Touch settings I use. Another couple of settings that are useful to modify: long press on WakeUp Touch in Notifications & assign it High Priority; lock WakeUp Touch in Recent Apps by dragging it down.

To turn the screen off via double tap, I use the Screen Off and Lock app in conjunction with Apex Launcher's double tap gesture [Nova & other launchers also have this gesture].

Hi.

After rooting the phone (with CMWR) I flashed TWRP recovery to the HTC Desire S (TWRP-saga-2.8.7.0-unofficial.img)

After booting in recovery I installed CM 11 (cm-11-20150702-UNOFFICIAL-XNG3C-saga.zip)

Due to the limited space on the HTC Desire S I installed only a reduced set of GAPPS afterwards (gapps-444-base-20150818-1-signed.zip plus some Gapps afterwards).

Hi, I bought a tablet from a online retailer. I have had issues with the tablet apps in the Android store not working or not compatible I also get a error message "E: fopen error /data/CustomInitLog". I have reached out to the store I have bought it from they are no help Just just tell me to "root" the device. I did some searching and found out it is a chinesse made tablet. I message the company and they are no help either. After doing somemore research on the tablet I found out it was rooted with a program called Kingo Root by the store I bought it from or company not sure on that one. Can someone help me get this tablet updated and running so I can use the apps in the Android market and not just some of them. Help me figure out this error "E: fopen error /data/CustomInitLog" and how to fix it. This is my first tablet I am a noob when it comes to this stuff and have no idea on how to "root" a device please help me.

Yes I am a newbie and have read all the tutorials and feel confidant in flashing a new OS, but what I can't figure out is how to save the OS on my Wizard before I flash so I have it to revert back to. Any help would be appreciated. TIA.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] starkwong:
If you are using a G3 Wizard, first unlock it, then get a >=128MB MiniSD and use mtty for a complete backup.

If that is a G4, use Wizard Service Tool to backup or restore OS ROM.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] sdl:
Great, thanks so much for your help! Will that backup the OS and radio files?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] starkwong:
The mtty methods backup the whole thing (IPL, SPL, Radio, OS and ExtROM, depends on what parameter you passes to r2sd command)

Actually, backing up Radio is not that vital because you can always flash any Radio ROM for Wizard.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeeXii:
Question...

A couple people have compared the stock "T3" DOK2 and "T" DOK2 stock FW and have concluded they are not exactly the same.

So my question is this...

Does it matter that the Stock "T" DOK2 firmware is different then the Stock "T3" DOK2 firmware?

What if someone bases a ROM from the "T3" but has a "T" phone or vice versa?

Tmobile and Samsung have confirmed that there was a "production line change" with the T3 version.

This happened with the Note 3 too. Usually this happens when components of the device have changed manufacturers.

This is either done because of a cost reason or perhaps to resolve an issue...

(or because of cost which inadvertently resolves an issue lol...)

Either way this could mean that the stock T3 ROM contains software intended for T3 hardware.

Since the specifics of the hardware changes are not fully known and are only speculation we do not know how important this is.

However as I said before the "T3" stock DOK2 firmware is for sure different then the "T" stock DOK2 firmware.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thefanum:
It was a hardware change due to defective GPS on the original.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeeXii:
That is pure speculation. Sammy or Tmobile has not confirmed that.

If that is the case though perhaps one would need a proper ROM for their phone.

Does anyone know if this is the case? I ask because again the two DOK2(s) are indeed different.

I made my SD to internal

When I connect my phone to PC, I can only see the internal memory.

How could I see the SD or the sum of both storages

This happen to me in all ROMs with marshmallow.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vicioxis:
Are you sure you are seeing the internal memory? When you format your SD Card as internal and you connect it to the PC you should see only the SD card. It works this way, you lose access to your internal memory. Try rebooting to see if it works, this happened to me some times.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sonrics1993:
I tried everything, but in which ROM are you?
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zeitkind:
Have the same problem. Upgraded to CM13, formatted SD as internal and now I only see the internal storage via USB/MTG. In settings/storage & USB I see both storages (8/3GB and 32/31 GB total/free), but neither on a Mac nor Windows I see the SD storage, only the smaller internal. Kinda bad, because there is not much space left on my internal and I can't copy music, pictures, files onto my phone.

Edit: Latest nightly ROM
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crisagler:
I tried that storage option earlier, I think, if I remember well, you have to move your files to the SD card, through the 3 dot menu at storage settings, then it will set the SD card as your main storage. Hope it helps

Sorry for my english :p

Need some help. I flashed the recovery from the CM site, and now it only boots to recovery, even after side-loading the CM13 zip for acclaim. Any ideas how to get out of recovery?!?!

Edit: I also tried to "adb sideload" a different recovery (CWM) but it fails to install, saying "E: footer is wrong, E: signature verification failed"

I can only get into adb sideload mode, as "adb devices" says my device is "UNAUTHORIZED", and can't boot to CM at all.

Edit #2: Anything (other than CM zip) I try to flash from ADB sideload within CM recovery fails due to signature verification. Seems like its checking for updates signed by CM. Ugh, not seeing a way out of this.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Juanito216:
Thank you, it runs well in account to the specs and age of this old tablet. This experience is better than the CM12 experience, more stable.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
Most likely the bootcounter reached max number of boots. So when booting, the bootloader sends you to recovery.

I'll try to see if the bootcounter reset doesn't work anymore in cm13 recovery.

Anyway, to get you out of this, can't you hold the nook key during boot to go in cyanoboot menu, start fastboot and flash twrp or old recovery with fastboot?

Chris
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Demetris:
I Confirm, experience is much better than CM12.1.

Chris you are a legend.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
The bootcounter reset indeed doesn't work anymore.

To get out of here:

- Let the device go to recovery

- adb to the device

- run the following commands:

mount /system

/sbin/clearbootdata.sh

Reboot

I'll try to fix this ASAP.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:

Chris
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] srgibbs99:
Thanks for the reply Chris!

The boot counter does increment (top left corner of cyanoboot, goes from 0-9 then starts over) however no matter what I press on that screen it immediately loads recovery.

Also, I can't get shell access with ADB. When I do "adb devices" it says this device is "UNAUTHORIZED". I can, however, choose "Apply update via ADB" in recovery and it changes to "sideload" but it still won't give me shell access.

Without shell access, what are my options? Seems like i can only flash official CM builds. Will the next nightly help me if your fix is in it? Does it affect the boot.img or or does that only affect the recovery?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Zippy Dufus:
First boot time? ... working now!

How long does the initial flash take to boot up for the first time?

I built this ROM (cm-13.0-20160116-UNOFFICIAL-acclaim.zip) and gave up after 45 minutes on the bootanimation.

Right now, I am flashing the cm-13.0-20150117-NIGHTLY-acclaim.zip and it is still booting after 30 minutes.

I flashed with TWRP 2.8.7. Is this OK?

BTW - great work on this ROM!

== // ==

Never mind. I built another (completely Linaro) ROM and it flashed and booted OK. The only thing that I did differently was that I did not flash SuperSu-v2.46 after I flashed the ROM.

Again, thanks for bringing Marshmallow to this device!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
I am afraid that you are now in trouble, but it is not fatal.

Options:

a) You can flash with "adb sideload" a zip that installs another recovery. I'll try to create that for CM13 now, as there's only some really old stuff available.

b) You can prepare a SDCARD that flashes recovery like if you would come from stock.

Hang on a bit until I provide a).

Chris
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] srgibbs99:
Sounds good and thanks.

I actually tried dropping the TWRP recovery.img inside the official CM13 zip and flashing that, but again, it failed due to signature verification. I wonder if you could have access to add a build that includes TWRP (or a fixed recovery image) to the "experimental" channel for CM? Or maybe a boot.img that gives me a second or two to press N and load something other than EMMC recovery.

Maybe that way it would be signed by CM and the current recovery would accept it.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] srgibbs99:
I had some time today so I tried b) and it finally got some results. I was able to boot to another recovery and flash twrp. Installing CM13 now! I'll update once im done.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Juanito216:
Yep, this tablet is usable on CM13.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] srgibbs99:
Finally got it up and running on CM13. Runs great, and as others have said its much more stable than CM12.

Also, based on my experience, I would advise against installing the CM custom recovery. Much safer to stick with TWRP.

Thanks for all your help Chris.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
The new nightlies should have the boot counter fixed, but it's true that cm recovery doesn't support open gapps flash right now as busy box support was dropped.

So it's maybe best to stick with twrp until further notice.

Updated to the latest nightly last night (20160119) and upon reboot got "Google Play Services has stopped", and a notification that Play services wont run until you update,.

am unable to go into apps setting to attempt to clear app storage . Crashes when trying the "manage space" option for Google Play Services

ignore , sorry I thought I was in the CM 12 thread duh...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] GuestD2035:
I never posted on this site but a google now card mentioned cm13 on the ole nook tablet so I gave it a whirl.

Clean flashed the 1/18 nightly the other night. Flashed the smallest gapps I could find because the other kept giving me error that not enough space. Was up and running and though bit slow all seemed well.

Tried running cm updater to get the 1/19 nightly but I got a md5 error. So I ended up downloading the nightly. Then I had to move it to the external sd card. Then I dirty flashed it. Everything still worked and no errors except there were no quick tiles when I pulled down from the top. This was fixed by holding the gear icon for a few seconds until it was spinning. After that there were several options that popped up and then the quick tiles were back.

Lastly and the main reason I am here. Is the home screen supposed to be stuck in landscape mode? The lock screen rotates but the home screen does not. Also the clock is not correct and I am unable to change it.

I use ClockWorkMod 6.0.4.5 to flash the roms btw if that matters.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] chrmhoffmann:
You must change the auto rotate settings for the home screen.

Chris
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] GuestD2035:
Auto rotate is on as is 0, 90, and 270 degrees. Also have rotate on lock screen on. Not sure if there is another rotate setting I am not seeing. I will clean flash the next update and see if this fixes it.

Edit: fixed. I did not know about the cm13 menu by holding the screen then swiping up. Rookie mistake.

Just loaded aosp for acclaim built by [MENTION=4473900]amaces[/MENTION]. Similar to the aosp build for NookHD+, it feels faster than cm13. Netflix seems to have started playing videos again; that may be related to the stale cache/data being wiped. But, regular Hulu now plays commercials., lol.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Zippy Dufus:

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mac4rfree:
I downloaded the same 20160505-nightly, and open gapps pico 20160426. I deleted the following partitions, Dalvik cache, cache, system and Data.

I flashed the ROM , rebooted to system and then boot back to recovery and flashed gapps. When i did this, i got the same FC's

So, i again did a full wipe, flashed ROM and Gapps together and rebooted. Again i am getting the same FC's.

Can somebody point out as what i did wrong.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mikeataol:
I have found recently that when I wipe in recovery, I get errors flashing if I dont wipe everything, then reboot to recovery before flashing. The newer TWRP recoveries just feel like they arent 100% reliable refreshing partition data, so I just have gotten in the habit of wiping everything, system/data/cache , then rebooting into recovery before flashing. (ignoring the prompts that no OS is installed and to flash SU), which is what I did on the 20160505 reinstall above.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] mac4rfree:
Well i did a factory reset after i flashed ROM and gapps and booted in. After the factory reset, no more FC's and registration is complete. Still i am not sure whats going though.
