[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlo1024:
I've been reading forums in XDA and reddit almost the whole day and was not able to find any definite guide about my inquiries so i started this new thread..

Here's my Story, i bought a brand new nexus 6 6.0.1 with build MMB29Q, i wanted to adjust the saturation because its too high, and of course i have to root to do that. i have already unlock boot loader. PS I'm very new in roooting, as in Zero experience, i'm reading about it right now but i need some help from you guys for me to not brick my new phone. 'Im planning on doing Systemless Root BTW.

My questions are:

1. What SuperSu version and TWRP version is compatible with MMB29Q? (i know the newest version is 2.67 for SuperSU and 2.8.5.0 for TWRP) I'm having second thought in using them because MMB29Q came to my device just February. Can someone tell me which version si compatible?

2. [/B] If i would be successful in rooting my device, i plan on flashing custom kernel (I'm Planning on Using Franco Kernel because it is the one the i have read which is compatible in color saturation control and temperature. Any suggestion for other kernel will be very helpful.) My question is after i root my device can i just directly flash it (franco kernel zip file) using TWRP in my device? or are there any requisites before flashing the franco kernel?

Please anyone can give a definitive guide on this, or atleast give me forum threads that i can read about this. Will really appreciate for your help guys, i really love my nexus 6, saturation and warm temp is my only concern. Thank you Guys!!!:)

2.67 for SuperSU is compatible. 2.8.5.0 TWRP is also compatible.

(Kernel - I don't know)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
1. SuperSU 2.65 or 2.67, TWRP 3.0.0. Keep in mind that SuperSU 2.67 is the beta version so you might want to use 2.65 instead. There are alternative superuser binaries available but those require a bit more work to use.

2. No suggestion for an alternate kernel, as I don't use one. As long as a flashable zip file is available for the chosen kernel, you can flash it via TWRP.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeltdownSpectre:
I used SuperSU v2.67, TWRP 3.0.0-0 and the ElementalX (3.09) kernel.

Rooted right now on stock MMB29Q.

I'm using SuperSU 2.66 on 29Q without issue. TWRP has been updated to 3.0.0-1 link: https://dl.twrp.me/shamu/

Read the OP for the kernel that you want. In there it will state if any special requirements are needed to flash before and/or after.

You'd want to flash the kernel first then flash SuperSU.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seabro01:
No issues with SuperSU 2.67 and TWRP 3.0.0 ElementalX is a great custom kernel. It supports screen color control (manually or pick in Aroma installer) and has a bunch of other features.

You should check out the N6 all in one beginners guide.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dopamin3:
On the phone make sure you have USB debugging enabled, and also allow the bootloader to be unlocked.

Get the Android SDK and ADB setup on your MAC. I don't have a MAC and this guide may or may not be correct, I can't confirm. Boot your phone into bootloader mode (hold volume up + volume down + power when the phone is turned off). Connect the phone to your MAC and run the command "fastboot oem unlock" to unlock your bootloader. Then "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.0-1-shamu.img" this will put on TWRP recovery.

Now using your volume rockers to boot into recovery. Now flash the version of SuperSu you want to use- 2.67 for Systemless or 2.65 for System. If you use systemless, TWRP will probably warn you you are not rooted and to swipe to install SuperSu. Don't do this!

that's what I've been through: kernel crash due to connecting the battery when the phone was connected to pc with usb cable. than after many times I tried flashing through download mode with lg flashtool it worked for almost half a day and then suddenly it crashed again (when I tried to install spotify on my phone). all through the process when I tried to flash a stock rom with LGUP it wasn't possible because of unknown model error. right now I re-flashed the marshmallow version (because for some reason that's the only stock rom which I can flash and it would work from time to time), and it crashes all the time after a few seconds of using it and getting back to boot loop. Mods I can enter: Only download mode (no recovery and crashes when try to turn it on)... Any ideas what my next move should be?
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dexter1759:
Hi All,

Not sure where to post for help, so apologies if this isn't the correct place.

A few days ago I dropped a padlock on my Xperia Z2 screen and it shattered completely. The display still works fine but obviously, doesn't respond to touch, I can see notifications still popping up. Luckily, I was due an upgrade and so am replacing the phone.

However, I want to make sure I get everything I can off my phone (ideally photos, videos and backing up Whatsapp messages (I thought this setting was enabled, but using my "backup phone", I see I've lost about a year of conversations/media) and wipe it.

I'm quite techy (I work in IT) but have minimal experience "hacking around" with Android and just wondered if anyone could help or even just point me in the right direction.

For me the ideal solution would be to do something like along the line of "How to Remote View and Control Your Android Phone" from HowToGeek (can't post URL sorry), but it requires root, so I'm open to suggestions.

FYI - It's an Xperia Z2 on EE (UK) and, I believe (from memory) that the bootloader is locked.

Many thanks in advance,

Dex

What size of Paging Pool choose to make our PDA faster as it is possible? This question grown up to the highest range so I decided to check it for myself and figure it what is the truth. Here it is my long test results:

As you can see there is no difference between 4/4.5 and 8MB PPS. The numbers are insignificant. In face of this fact I decided to use 4MB PPS in my ROM to increase available RAM. Maybe different tests will show advantage of bigger PPS, but not these above.

Feel free to comments.

Oh,GREAT!!!

But how to edit the pagepool size to 4 MB

I know for WM6 the 8 MB is

@Block 3EDDD0

64 B0 00 00 64 00 00 00 74 9A 1F 80 00 00 48 00

Change 48 00 to 80 00 for 8mb

Isn't it?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Umpal:
You have to find following string: XX 00 08 27 1D 80 94 7B 1D 80, where instead two X are:

00 - 0 MB

10 - 1 MB

20 - 2 MB

40 - 4 MB

48 - 4.5 MB

80 - 8 MB

And so on.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bundleofjoy:
hi,

this is my understanding:

the pagepool is just a reserved piece of RAM that is used to hold code (not data) of programs that are currently executing. It's size becomes more important the more programs are being simultaneously executed.

If the limit is reached, segments of currently not used code must be removed from the pool, to make room for code that is currently required. Any code that has been moved out of the pagepool and is later recalled for, must be reloaded (either from ROM or from memory card) - which may manifest in delayed response time to the user.

Software that executes straight from rom (XIP-execute in place) does not use the pagepool, but these are limited to whatever software came with the flash image - and even then I'm not sure which ones do XIP and which ones do not.

Would be great to have some tool available that can give this information.

So as long as the size of the pagepool is not too small (1 or 2 MB is obviously too small) there will be no real effect when benchmarking boot times or memory read/write times, unless you fire up a number of other programs - to make sure that the pagepool actually gets filled - and then switch backwards and forwards between them.

Jan
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Umpal:
Sure, feel free to use it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Umpal:
Theoretically - yes. To be sure I have to do some new experiental tests and will see. Now I have filled up RAM a lots of apps and nothing unusual happend, no compaction or other "slow motion" feeling (CPU load increased to 20%, but it is understandable). After quitted from all the apps CPU load returned to 7%. Only memory have not released to the state before. Oxios Hibernate (v 1.4) released it some. But as I know it is the problem all of WM5/6, even 2003SE.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] HappyMM:
With some data, another myth was made.

If you have only 64M RAM, you can not set PP too large because the RAM for system and program are necessary. 4M or 8M make little difference.

But when you have 128M RAM, the RAM above 64M cannot be used by the WM5 and WM6 system. These free RAM is wasted.

If 128M RAM, you can set PP to 48M. This will make you to open big files smooth and rapidly. For example, when you open a ppt file (20M), 48M PP will make the whole file loaded into RAM. When you move the pages, it is very fast and smooth. If only 4M PP, you will find the system is slow when you move to next page.

Because we have only 64M physical RAM, the PP had better be set at 4M to 8M.

For Chinese and Japanese, some files are biger than english version. Big PP makes us happier.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] escamillo_del_hierro:
But how can i do to change the PP to 48 Mb? What's stand for 48 in HEX?

Can i do the same thing to my hx2755 ROM WM6?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Umpal:
1024*1024*48=50331648 bytes, in Hex 3000000 - then it should look following: 74 9A 1F 80 00 00 00 03 08 27 1D 80 94 7B 1D 80

Well, if you will find the above string (except 00 03 in red, what depends of ROM release) I think it will work.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] HappyMM:
48M PP in hex is 48 00 -> 00 03 not 03 00

4.8M -> 48 00

8.0M -> 80 00

16M -> 00 01

32M -> 00 02

48M -> 00 03

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] lyger:
the size of the pagepool during normal use doesn't matter, it's when compaction is actively running and then you need to pageout code to ROM, busy with compaction, that's when you notice lag. having a larger pagepool means less paging out to ROM busy with compaction.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Umpal:
I've added the results of 0 MB PPS. I ran at this size of PP so far. It is probably the best settings for use, but keep in mind that you will often use Oxios Hibernate to free some RAM. Now the system is almost free compaction (or very quick) and fast enought. Decision is yours :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] grayme:
but it doesn't work on the hx4700?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] HappyMM:
If you set PP=0, the system is fast but with a big problem. That is when you open a big file, like ppt or doc. This program will use all ram to load the file. You cannot launch other programs.

I donnot think it is wise to set PP=0.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bundleofjoy:
setting the PP to 0 is useless - unless you don't mind resetting the device very often.

Above all, the setting of the PP size does not affect compaction. Regular compaction occurs if you allow your applications to write their temporary data to flash.

Jan
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Umpal:
You're right, but it depends from how you use your PDA. I try not to use many programs simultaneously so the problem doesn't exist. Probably after some time I will go back to 4 MB PPS, but for now I would like to test battery run with this setting.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] HappyMM:
You can try this.

After soft reset, launch media player to play some mp3 files. You will find your ram eaten by mediaplayer quickly. In the worst situiation, you have to soft reset your PPC to solve the problem.

This is turning into a 'my dad's car is better than your dad's car' thread.

If someone prefers to have a 0mb page pool and someone else finds it best to have a 786378324.33343mb page pool then good for them.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] LordDeath:
there are several things, which should be considered, too:

for example should i decrease the pagepool about 2mb and raise the filecache to 2mb? this would mean the same free ram, but which one is faster?

in sktools there are several settings, which consume more ram, but should improve the device's performance. this is the font cache, tcp windows size and the file system cache.

this seems to be an endless testing ^^

Hi. This is my first time owning an Android phone so please bear with me. Also, English isn't my first language.

I got this phone as a gift, an SM-G920F. And it already has SuperSU in it when I got it. Which means it's already rooted if I'm not mistaken. I'm liking the phone and hoping to know more about it.

Anyway I discovered that you can only change the media volume with the rockers when a video or music is playing. And it defaults to ringtone otherwise. Same thing happens when the media pauses in the middle of playback. But I never change my ringtone volume. It's either on, off, or vibrate.

So I browsed the web for fixes. And found this app called Rocker Locker. I tried it but it was a huge battery drain, so it wasn't a permanent fix. I also found out that this behavior was changed in Marshmallow. Having the rockers change media volume by default.

Tried to check for OTA updates. But it said something about phone being modified. Which was lucky, because I've also read not to take OTA updates while rooted.

Long story short. How do I update from Lollipop to Marshmallow in a rooted phone?

Thanks so much guys!
[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bhargav Hegde:
You can update it using Smart switch, even if your device is rooted smart switch helps you to upgrade the same, google it by typing Smart switch, you will get it and also note that if your device gets updated to Marshmallow, you will be unrooted.
