I didnt say anything about using safestrap the second time. There should have been no safestrap after you flashed the restore zip in twrp so how did you get to safestrap. What zip did redownload. Check the md5 of the safestrap updater zip

Your need to do what I ask you. If you were using the wrong safestrap zip before I fixed it flashing the wrong kernel it dont matter what you do it ain't going to work.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Andresakapaco04:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Reboot to twrp mount system. Use file manager got system/etc/safestrap. Is there a file in there called 1boot.img
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jtann30:
Sorry, I meant I wiped everything with Safestrap before flashing PD1 restore zip. After that used only TWRP to wipe data and still no luck. Never used Safestrap the second time. I was on Resurection Remix 6.01 with PB1 bootloader. I did the following:

Flashed lollipop downgrader, rebooted to safestrap

Wiped data, cache, system, installed PB1 restore zip, rebooted

PB1 loaded fine, rooted stock with PB1 baseband and bootloader

rebooted to TWRP and flashed safestrap MM upgrader, rebooted to safestrap

wiped data, cache, system, flashed PD1 restore zip, rebooted.....Verizon red logo bootloop. close to an hour waiting

rebooted to TWRP, wiped data, installed PD1 restore zip again, rebooted....Verizon red logo bootloop. close to an hour waiting

I downloaded the files after you fixed them. I will double check the md5's and files when I am home in a bit..
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Andresakapaco04:
what should i mount? im lost and no there no safestrap folder or boot.img i just cheked
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Ok you should be good to try flashfire method. Good luck

Ok I downloaded the restore pd1 zip and even though md5 checks i cat get it to install either but my original does so their is obviously a problem with my upload so I will re-upload the file when i get home. Sorry for the failed attempts.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Andresakapaco04:
anddd Sucess, phone booted faster than i expected 13 min to be exact , wifi and haptic keys are working, no bugs, im guessing my bootloader should be on PD1 but ill check anyways, thanks for the flashfire method it was way better i been trying to update for a week and it was really frustrating but thanks i can safely say that it was a success
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ruokuo:
Jrkruse,

I redownload the restore_pd1 file and verified the md5 value. I am sorry to say that it still couldn't get past the Verizon screen for 1hr. Here is what I did:

1. Flashed SafeStrap MM Updater in Twrp.

2. Wipe cache, system, data, delvik cache in SS.

3. Install the restore_pd1 (new one) in SS.

4. Reboot to System in SS

5. Stuck on the Samsung splash screen.

6. Go to Twrp and wipe data, install Restore_pd1(new) for the 2nd time. Reboot to system.

7. Get past the splash screen, didn't notice any Seandroid message.

8. Stuck on Verizon logo for 1 hr.

I then give up and tried the ff method. Worked like a charm. Now I am finally on MM now. Thanks.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] hicks:
The keyboard has a little light sensor and will only come on if it deems it necessary. This can be changed in the control panel somewhere.. I don't have my phone on me at the moment.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] mrdo:
i'm assuming that if the light came on initially then the light sensor deemed it necessary. i'm assuming that it should come back on again a few seconds later when i start typing again.

Are you running the Google Fit app on your paired phone? If not, install the Google Fit app on your phone, and it should handle the syncing to the web site.

[K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kabel441:
Hi,

I rooted my Lenovo K3 Note yesterday, and I am now running the Limonchelo NovaMod 5.0 custom ROM, Android 5.0.

Everything was running very smoothly. I installed all the apps I needed, set the launcher settings as per my liking, changed the ringtone to a custom one ( a song stored on my SD card). But suddenly, today when my phone rang (this is the first time it rang since I rooted the phone), I realised that the ringtone was still set to the default system ringtone. So, I tried to change it once again to a custom one.

Just as I had done numerous times before, I went to Settings-->Ringtones and volumes-->Call Alert Tone-->More Ringtones.., but this time, instead of being transferred to a new browser screen from where I can select any song on my device (even on SD card) as my ringtone, I got a small message at the bottom of my screen-- "No such application".

I have tried googling everything but it seems like no one has ever encountered a similar problem before.

Just before this problem appeared, I was messing around with the folders in my Internal Storage. I found many of them were obsolete (folders related to apps I had before rooting, which I don't need any more). So, I deleted many of them as I wanted to free some storage space. I'm afraid I have deleted some important system folder which has led to this issue. I read somewhere that the app "Theme Center" is probably required to browse for "More Ringtones...", but I can't find the app on my phone. Maybe this is what is causing the problem.

People root their phones so they can customise their systems extensively and I can't even set a custom ringtone. :crying:

Can anyone please help?

P.S.- I'm just a beginner and this is the first time I've rooted my phone. So, please give a detailed solution if possible.
[Remix OS for PC] matiaspar:
Hi, I open this thread because I mounted system.img (unpack it), maque some changes and repack it. Does not work, but the concept do (the rmxroot script I found in the web use this concept)

To do that I follow these steps:

1) Copy system.img to a folder in my ubuntu partition.

2) Make a backup.

3) Mount the system.img with:

sudo chmod 0644 system.img (giving permisions)

and

sudo mount -o loop,rw -t ext4 system.img tmp/

4) Make than changes (the rmxroot copi the su binaries and do other stuff)

The changes and adds can be made it graphically with nautilus.

5) Repack the system.img again with:

umount tmp

Please, if someone do something like that coment, so all can learn about.
[Repurposing Old Devices] XDARoni:
Dedicated WiFi Home Phone​

Can you believe people still pay for a home phone service? Well they do and they're getting ripped off. Phone companies will shamelessly sell your grandparents a dedicated home phone and charge up to $50 a month for the service! That is outrageous. The reason this still happens is because many people like to stick with what they're familiar with. Convincing someone to give up their landline can be more trouble than it's worth. Instead, I'm going to show you how to take an old Android phone or tablet and set it up as a landline replacement. This will cost you nothing since we are going to be using Google Voice via WiFi.

Step 1: Get a Retro Phone Handset

You can get either a Bluetooth handset or a regular corded option. If you are going to be setting this up for someone who is technically challenged, then just go with the corded phone. No need to add the complication of Bluetooth pairing to the mix.

​

Step 2: Setup Google Voice With Hangouts

Use this guide here to setup a Google voice account that can make and receive calls over WiFi.

Then just delete anything that is unneeded off of the phone. Set it somewhere that will be convenient for phonecalls and you're all set! You don't need a recent phone to do this. Any old android device will work.

[Android Studio] New2Studio:
I just downloaded the Android Studio. I am running windows 7 64 bit with 4 GBs of Ram. When I open the application it takes a few minutes to load the studio. It then loads to an error that says there was a rendering problem which I fix by changing the API from the drop down. I put 3 labels on the app and just wanted to see what that looked like so I tried running it. I ran it through the Emulator and after basically freezing my computer up and taking up to 5 minutes to build it works but then I see a blank screen. I don't even see my labels. So I tried running it from my phone and after a few hours I finally got it to where it would even recognize my phone as authorized. However, every time I try to run it it says the app has crashed before it even loads. I am using a Samsung Galaxy s3 so I tried it with API 17. So here are my questions.

#1:

Why is this program soooooooo slow? I have changed the gradle to be offline. I have also added this line to the properties org.gradle.daemon=true and still it takes forever and almost freezes up my computer.

#2:

Why aren't my labels showing when I run it through the emulator? I mean that's about as simple as you can get and it isn't even working.

#3:

Why does my phone crash before even loading the app? I have 32 GB of memory on my phone via an SD card if that even matters.

#4:

Can this program really be as bad as it seems? I've been "working with it" about 3 days now and I can't get it to function properly in any way.
[Android Studio] stickin:
4GB is barely enough for comfortable work. Especially on 64-bit OS and especially with emulator (and maybe browser tabs and some other stuff) running.

Although I used to launch it with 2GB somehow :)

And if your app doesn't work properly and even crashes, it's most likely bugged. Read the log.

You can then use supersu me to replace the kingroot with official supersu

First you need ADB and fastboot

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=48915118#post48915118

Install this. This will create a folder on your HDD in "program files" called "minimal ADB and fastboot"

Download stock filmware and the msfastboot (OP first comment) Unzip both then place all of the files in the minimal ADB and fastboot folder.

Open CMD in the ADB folder, holding shift and right clicking then select "open command here"

Then just put the commands in as stated in the OP (with the phone connected in fastboot). It does take about 10-15 for the first boot so just be patient.

If you need more help PM me and we will get it working for you.
