[LG G Stylo Guides, News, & Discussion] MrObvious:
FYI, I created a custom flashable update.zip if anyone wants to flash from TWRP.

Note: You'll have to flash the two return to stock files: http://xdaforums.com/android/development/rom-lg-g-stylo-h631-ms631-v10j-stock-t3211563

Steps:

1) Go to TWRP

2) Flash bootstack ZIP from XDA

3) Flash return to stock

4) flash custom update.zip attached below (or post 39 from thread http://androidforums.com/threads/ne...e-lg-stylo-h63110l.996880/page-2#post-7234560)

Thanx for your reply,but it's not happening.Definitely not apps like Cover,Radio,Music or even Splendid.They can't be installed as apk,neither.As flashable .zip won't run afterwards(and the annoying notification "the app has stopped"pop up all the time)

This would fit better in Q&A or General. But, to answer you anyway, CM doesn't have the proper framework or libs to run these apps. I'm sure people have tried to port it, but there's a reason it hasn't happened yet.

[Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Paddy32810:
I'm using a Samsung Gear S2 Classic on a Huawei Honor 6 phone, which is compatible, and since I've been using it (2 days) I've never recieved once a text message notification on my watch, or email. I recieve facebook messenger push notifications, so I can reply to the messages, but no way of going back to the application.

The real problem is that in the Tizen app menu of the watch, there is no "Messages" application, nor email for that matter. It's like they don't exist, they were deleted in the OS. But I know that they are there because I've seen the icons on video reviews on youtube. It's extremely frustrating to not recieve text notifications, it makes the watch useless. I've factory resetted twice, played with the options, sent hundreds of text with my phone in vibrate mode, silent mode, screen on, screen off, mixing combinations, but nothing works. I've tried looking on internet for this particular problem of notifications not working but have had no success in finding a fix.

This morning at work I factory resetted the Samsung Gear S2 once more and connected it to a friend's Samsung Galaxy S6, and when everything was synchronised I was shocked to see in the app menu on the watch the Messages and Email apps. I couldn't believe it ! So there must be some sort of compatibily issue with non-samsung (or non-galaxy ?) phones.

I've now synchronised it back to my Honor 6, the Messages app has dissapeard... furthermore I'm not recieving any notifications at all (no push notifications from FB messenger for example). I then discovered that in the gear manager, in the notifications manager, I haven't ticked the "messaging" app because... there isn't one. Honor 6 has no dedicated messaging app, it's condensed in the "phone" app. How can we fix this ?

Thank you for your feedback.

Due to that Baidu scandal , and several past bad stolen credit experiences with a certain country, rom devs should declare where are they are based..just saying..I see a trend of info spying from a lot of Chinese and Indian based apps..
[Off-topic] Trafalgar Square:
Hey,

if there is an issue with a ROM you can press the report button next to the post. A Moderator will look at it then. If there are spying tools or paid Apps in a ROM, it's against XDA rules and will be handled by mods.

Maybe a Moderator can answer to this thread too? [MENTION=3367108]justmpm[/MENTION] maybe ;)

[Off-topic] orangekid:
You pretty much just answered it...

if there is spyware/malware/brickware then report the thread and it will be handled.

I don't see where the OP's "bad credit experiences" should introduce some crazy wave of forced location policy.

I live in the US right now, and I could easily use Chinese, Indian, French, Mexican, or Martian sources to build my ROM and include any crapware I wanted to, so my country of origin means nothing in this wise.

How about users just read up and be careful what they flash, and report anything dubious?

Hi,

I've just bought the w90 watch and try to flash it. I follow the steps for flash a mtk 6260a but I have some problem:

-first I have a empty backup folder so I can't replace it with the original one :-/

- when I flash the watch, I've sound, the watch vibrate, making a sound when i plug on the usb, with some firmware i've sound when i click the menu button, with other I can power off and have the sound too, the only problem is that I have a black screen with all the firmware I tested.

When I flash it, I've the green circle at the end (with 95% of the firmware i've tested).

I try to flash mine because I see on internet these watch with a better menu (more colorfull, background, more theme, more watch face).

I've spend my day searching how to fix my w90 watch.

And finally, i found the original firmware here: downloads.tinydeal.com/Tools_to_write_IMEI.rar (the firmware is in the archive with SN write tool)

I hope that'll help some people with this watch.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Talabis:
Hey all,

I've been looking for a while now but I'm not having much luck. From what I have seen, both Slimrom and Liquidsmooth dev's have either stopped/have not creating/created their respective roms for the Galaxy S5 klte. I managed to find an unofficial LS KitKat 4.4 rom for my S5 a while back now (maybe 8-10 months give or take), but its a tad unstable and buggy. However, I have not been able to find any roms like it thus far. Carbon ROM seemed like it may have potential, but again I could not find a KitKat variant for my S5.

So I am asking the community. Does anyone have any suggestions as to a light weight, clean, stable and smooth KitKat 4.4.x ROM that has similar features to LS and/or Slimkat?

I am still continuing my search. Hoping some one here has some suggestions that I could give a try.

P.S. Sorry if this has been asked already. I'm looking in XDA but haven't found any threads related to my question. If there is one, my bad. Still looking through the forum...

Thanks as always!

[Shield Android TV Android Development] IamSonoma:
Hi Zulu.

Thank you for this.

It has been a while since my flashing (Captivate and Atrix 2, well any phone before boot loaders LOL) days but I have to ask.

Will Fastboot wipe my user data or does it do a dirty flash?

I am unlocked, rooted, and on stock 3.0.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
you need to wipe data if you switch to full Android.

fastboot -w

otherwise you have old data with bad Android Tv things inside.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
you can install and try what you want.

SuperSu link is this: http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133

the + sign mean that you can install supersu versions >= 2.67. In reality are working all SuperSu system less that patch automatically the boot image.

In Marshmallow you need a patched boot image that Supersu do automatically, this is the difference from the previous Lollipop firmwares.

If TWRP recovery ask, not install the old supersu, not mount the system, and not inject multirom stuff.

i used this twrp recovery: twrp-multirom-20151112-UNOFFICIAL-foster.img

http://xdaforums.com/shield-tv/general/recovery-twrp-2-8-6-0-shield-tv-variants-t3140926

Yes the L version. I not tested the newer version, but i assume should work.

I not install the TWRP recovery, i only boot it with the command:

All the videos HEVC H.265 4K that i have tested work very well. And this is related to the firmware.

I not have a 4k Netflix account, i can't test, but if works or not work 4k on netflix can be only for a protection reason of Netflix and this is not of my interest.

For Netflix and 4k, my suggestion is run the Netflix TV app, use app settings xposed module and set immersive and 320 dpi. So the app have the same values of the stock firmware. Instead if the protection is in another place, i don't have the 4k account to test.

4K videos work wonderful on this firmware.

BUt many thanks for your test and suggestion.

the default value is:

If you have it on Auto, the device automatically set the best range deriving the settings from your TV / Monitor. And by default is Auto.

Have full RGB on a TV is completly unuseful. You request this because you have a pc monitor, but ......

Why, in the stock firmware, some users try to write files on usb disks formatted exFat and NTFS with FTP ?

Here, on full Android, with es file explorer and root, we can write very well disks formatted in exFat and NTFS.

And we can access read and write also from a PC in mtp.

If you need to write on exFAT and NTFS from all apps, not only es file explorer, you can install StickMount. Unmount the disk from Android and mount with StickMount.

Who know what is the problem on stock ?

Today I bought a Xbox 360 wireless controller for PC.

I connected it to the Shield and it worked as expected.

But there is one problem. All 4 segments of the Xbox button in the middle are continuously blinking all the time. It's very annoying.

Is this normal behaviour?

For me it looks like some driver is missing.

When i connect the controller to the PC blinking stops immediately and only one of the 4 segments lights up.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
is normal in android.

if i remember well there is an app in android that can stop the blinking, but i not remember the name.
[Shield Android TV Android Development] socksi:
Ok, thanks.

Couldn't find the app. The only solution I found is this.

I'm not sure if this applies to the wired or the wireless controller. Unfortunately it requires compiling a new kernel for the Shield with an updated driver.

There are also reports that multiplayer gaming with more than one Xbox 360 wireless controller does not work because of this issue.

Can you confirm that?

I just realized that Nvidia only has a recovery Image for the 3.0 firmware on their website.

Does anyone have the Recovery Image of 2.1 and could upload it including the flashing instructions?

Or are these the same as in 3.0:

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash staging blob

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot reboot

adb wait-for-device

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

fastboot reboot

That would be really great!

[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
you can swap the system.img inside the stock 2.1 firmware linked in second post of full android 5.1 after flash_all.bat

but i not suggest to turn back, because if you do that, to turn back on marshmallow you can only flash the OTA via TWRP. Not others way are possible. Also if you flash the stock 3.0 recovery image your device will freeze on first setup screen.

is not necessary now turn back. full Android 6 is wondeful. I updated also my second Shield TV to full Android 6

[Shield Android TV Android Development] justkidding2009:
The problem is I am still running your Rom with full android 5.1. And if I understood you correctly the best way to switch to your full android 6.0 is to install the original recovery image 2.1 of Nvidia in this case and receive the Ota to 3.0 afterwards.

That's why I need this recovery image first. So I will just use the one from your second link in the 5.1 android thread right? Just to be sure can I use the same commands as when I flashed your Android 5.1 full firmware? What is flash_all.bat?
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
All correct, bur you can use just one command

flash_all.bat that is inside every stock recovery firmware
[Shield Android TV Android Development] zulu99:
StickMount is for usb disks, not for SD. And work very well in case some apps can't write to your preexistent ntfs / exfat disks. Instead, with es file explorer, if you have root, you can write to ntfs / exfat disks mounted as portable by Android without problems. This is just a trick to avoid native Marshmallow restrictions. Everything is possible and in easy and fast way.

From window PC, in MTP you can also see every usb ntfs / exfat disks mounted as portable by Android and write what you want.

Just for info, i also tested mirroring of SATV to Chromecast and seem that also audio now work.

You need only select the root folder where you want install apps at first start. All others things as usual.

So you can move apps to external sd having the disk mounted as portable storage. Without encryption, and every app work because Android think that the app is in the internal storage. You can have a backup if you reinstall the firmware and the sd card can be used also in custom recovery.

Personally i mount all drives as portable storage, so this is useful for me.

But you can do what you want also use the native expanded storage of Marshmallow if you don't have special needs.

With full Android you can do everything, with Android TV no :)

Multiple USB Drives?

I apologize if this question has been asked already, but I searched for it through this entire thread. Many people are having a lot of trouble with USB drives after the upgrade of the stock ROM. Many say they can only use one drive at a time when they were able to use two before the upgrade. I have postponed upgrading so far because of all the trouble users are reporting. Does this problem appear in this ROM?
