To flash a custom ROM, use Odin to flash TWRP from here: https://dl.twrp.me/d2tmo/

Once TWRP has been installed, you can boot into TWRP to flash a custom ROM and Gapps.

If you just want root, flash supersi from TWRP: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] david_Vi:
Hi, i've had my Z2 two years now and I've rooted, UB and installed roms on it many times but for some reason I can't get into recovery anymore. I flashed a different ROM a few months ago to try get it back to stock but since then, no recovery!

I've flashed the TWRP 1 click installer (only seems to work on laptop, on PC I get waiting for device but it says it worked on laptop) but still I can't get into a recovery to flash a custom rom.

Any ideas? How do I get recovery back? Please be a bit simple with me, i've googled it and just get overwhelmed by the info so figure I should ask and find out what actually applies to me..

Thanks.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ashuparla:
If you have flashed a stock rom, you probably have locked your bootloader, try this (hope you have done a TA backup the first time you unlocked the BL...):

Download the Androplus kernel in development section, unzip it.

Then, download and use flashtool (install the drivers if need them) to unlock your BL again (BLU button).

Once you have unlocked it, disconnect the phone from the computer BUT DON'T BOOT IT.

Close and reopen flashtool, and select fastboot mode from flashtool and use the kernel flash option.

Select the boot.img you have unzipped from androplus (change the file extension to .img), and your are done.

Disconnect, reboot and you will be able to access the TWRP recovery from the kernel when you see the led, then flash a stock based custom ROM (with recovery), or CM one, try to have one of them downloaded and placed into your ext-sdcard.

PLEASE! My English is not good enough to explain this in a better way, if you don't are familiar with flashtool, fastboot mode or you don't understand any of the steps, wait for a better explanation or read a lot about it BEFORE doing nothing.

PS. Your internal data probably will be lost, make a copy of all your photos, docs, etc. You can relock your BL if you choose a stock based custom rom like eXistenZ, just restoring your TA backup after flashing it.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zulkifli364:
have u try flash via adb fastboot? it's easier when u have UB, try erase it first, "fastboot erase recovery" then flash the img (the latest twrp img is available on their site) "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] icugotit2:
So I sold my note 4 and got an s7 edge with bogo promo. I felt like i have dumped my wife for a flashy one night stand; who isn't as experienced around the bushes . . . I regret selling and feel like a part of me is gone. In all fairness the s7 edge is a nice phone(sd card, water res, flashy. But the n4 offers a more mature experience. Although my edge antutu was 149k v 51k on my n4.

My n4 had a more fluid experience. Marshmallow on the edge is underwhelming and feels unfinished. I get random slow downs and lag. The stock sound is horrible compared to the n4 and I miss v4a so much. No root, so community and dev seen is dead.

The only triumph the edge has is the camera. If it wasn't for all the free cash Sammy threw at me I wouldn't have jumped.

update 4/14/16

After the lastest update APC8 I have no more gripes with the phone. Battery live is great and performance is really fluid.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] r3xx3r:
Yea, I upgraded from my old Galaxy S4 to the Note 5 at the end of last year, and regretted it so much I bought a Note 4. I can't live without the removable battery (yay for ZeroLemon!), SD card slot and IR blaster. Let's hope Samsung learns and puts all 3 back in the Note 6.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] glensta:
I'm a big upgrade guy, get the newest device as soon as it's out, sometimes to my detriment lol. I had the note 4, then the S5, then the note 5, then the S6, sold the Sold the S6 - didn't like it, went back to the note 5. Then the S7 came out, bought it hoping root would show up soon after, never did, returned it along with a $50 restock fee. Now I'm left with the Note 5 and Note 4. Thinking I'll sell the note 5 since I can get more money for it and the Note 4 still holds up very nicely. Might have to go w/ Nexus later in the year if bootloaders continue to be locked.

FWIW

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] naruto.ninjakid:
Note 4 was the longest phone i ever had. I moved on over to the Nexus 6P (to try the Stock Android everyone is always raving about). It is smoother than touchwiz and so far im liking it. Really not liking this new direction Samsung is going in with no root on the S7 and Edge even on T-mobile. If they will continue to do so i will be moving to another Brand and So far its most likely the Nexus's since its no BS and guaranteed root-ability and development. The nexus devices might not have every bell and whistle but they are pretty solid. I'm waiting next for the Note 6 and if its not up to my specifications/no root ill go with the Nexus 7P ( or whatever they call it) my devices need at least a 5.7 inch scree though.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] vision33r:
OnePlus 3 is the best option besides Samsung and Nexus phones. I'm tired of waiting for updates all the time from Samsung.

It has fewer features than Note 4 but it has enough of what I need.

The Capacitive buttons are better than the Note 4, the fingerprint sensor works faster compared to Note 4's. The volume and power button is exactly like the Note 4's positions.

Unlocked bootloader, easy root, and custom roms already available.

It is so fast and quick, that I rarely have to wait for any app to launch. It has lots of customizations that are built within Android stock like UI and the only issue will be no removeable storage and battery.

Probably the most stupidest question out there but just wondering..

Since a lot of people are saying that the headphone quality is meh will a portable amp improve the quality?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] dazzer1975:
crap in, crap out

amplifying a crap headphone out (if it is crap to you where you think a seperate amp should be used) will result in a crap result

if the usb has a line out, that might be of some use....does it? I'd be interested to know
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jbpf77:
An amp with its own DAC, like the Fiio E18 for example, would improve the sound quality. I've not used mine since I got my Exynos S7 though, the sound quality sounds good enough.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] andiedee:
Yeah i have no idea, some people have said that getting a portable amp and plugging it to your phone will increase the audio quality :\ but your saying of "crap in, crap out" makes a lot of sense.. haha

Cheers for that, yeah i'll be getting the exynos as well is it as bad as everyone saying it is ? (sound quality)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] lazard:
portable amps don't utilize the 3.5mm jack. And yes, a portable amp will improve the quality. If you have the snapdragon version, then you'd want a portable dac/amp combo.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jbpf77:
For me, listening at my desk at work in a fairly quiet environment, the sound quality and volume levels are absolutely fine. I used to have to use my E18 with my Note 4 all the time as the sound quality was really bad, especially noticeable as I had an M8 before that, but I've not used the E18 at all since I got the S7.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] andiedee:

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Darkseth:
Which headphones are you Using??

I'm using a Pair of UE 900 (UVP 399€ quad-driver in-ear-monitors), and i have no problems, of deficites. I used an htc one m8 before, and i dont really notice a worse soundquality.

Sure, if you really try hard enough and compare then like you want to dissect it, you might find differences.

But like i said, i have no Problems there. The Output impedance is low enough with almost 2 Ohm, soundquality, and output Power is really enough (i can not listen to 100% Volume, it's just way too loud for me).

Of course, you'll ha ve to decide that yourself, maybe you have much better in-ears / headphones, and have much higher, more audiophile standards.

(but, if you dont dissect your music, but just want to enjoy listening, it's totally fine)
[General Topics] jerrychan:
Oh. I eventually got TouchPal work on one of my friend's device. Very special way...

(if you don't know what is TouchPal, please go to http://www.cootek.com)

Step A> Common steps:

1. Install TouchPal

2. Soft-reset your device

Step B>Check with your device version:

1. Make sure you can find "\Program Files\TouchPal" folder. If it exists, go to Step C directly.

2. If not, try to find another folder named "Programme". If you can find it, copy TouchPal folder, create a folder under root directory named "Program Files" and then paste TouchPal folder into it.

3. Soft-reset and try again.

Step C> If it doesn't work, try the following steps:

1. Install a workable SIP (PocketCM in my case)

2. Install a registry editor (http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml)

3. Find the registry key of that SIP under:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\

if it is PocketCM, it is HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\BB25F2EB-688C-4698-ADFC-F422A148AD4F

4. Go to InprocServer32 key, change the "default" value to:

"\Program Files\TouchPal\touchpal.dll"

5. Save and exit

6. Soft-reset your device, TouchPal works now!

Caution: After Step C, your PocketCM doesn't work anymore. You need to change that value back and reboot to make PCM work again. But actually, I don't really need it anymore, do you? :p

Hope more and more people could use this really cool SIP just like me~:)
[General Topics] nanoflower:
Nice going there.

I assume you are from Germany as you refer to your Program Files folder as being "Programme" - How did you get around the missing dictionary and special characters used in your language (äöß)?
[General Topics] joval:
Tried to perfrom your approach on a Dutch Mio PDA I have here, just for testing. Did not manage to get it to work. I will wait for my Touch to arrive in 2 days and give it a go again then. To me all of this sound like a badly written installer for the SIP. But must say the Sip itself looks promising, would even buy it I think.

Found another workaround, based on JerryChan's workaround, so credit goes to him:

This is when installing on anther CE OS then English !!!!!

1. Install TouchPal

2. Install a registry editor (http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities...ryeditor.shtml)

3. Find the registry key of that SIP under:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{802C691C-EB46-442c-BC54-DC2C42B156C3}

4. Go to InprocServer32 key, change the "default" value to:

"\<your program files folder name>\TouchPal\touchpal.dll"

5. Save and exit

6. Soft-reset your device, TouchPal works now!

Regards,

John
[General Topics] jerrychan:
I am not sure whether it is the bug in SIP or in Windows Mobile. Actually it is quite common that a third-party SIP couldn't run on some Windows Mobile. I actually bet "SIP cannot load on some devices" must be a windows bug. But I think at least, the "Programme" issue must be a setup bug in that SIP. Going to report to CooTek! Hope they can fix this issue in coming release. Overall, TouchPal is still the best!

BTW, I didn't find the way to type those characters. Cannot wait to see international version of TouchPal.
[General Topics] jerrychan:
Sorry, John. Seems this approach will kill customized word feature. That is, you cannot add customized word anymore. :p

I suggest you just use my solution on "Programme" like device.

Thank you so much - I finally got TouchPal working on my HTC Touch !
[General Topics] Trekvogel:
Now it works! Thanks jerrychan.
[General Topics] joval:
@jerrychan,

You are right noticed that also, probably due to hardcoding the path to the dictionary also.

So if you combine both our suggestions, you no longer need to install PocketCM. :)

[General Topics] Sian:
Hi there

I really would like to use TouchPal as my default SIP but it is rather 'unstable'. Maybe I've installed other SIPs, such as CE Star, Phonepad etc.

Anyway, the steps mentioned here by the two gentlemen seems to be for those who didn't have TouchPal installed in the correct place. For my Trinity Asian ROM (official from HTC), the installation is as per what's being described here, so no changes are needed. But still, TouchPal refused to run sometimes.

Last night I tried installing some XT9 cab files which doesn't seem to work. After that TouchPal didn't run properly anymore. I've to delete it. Sigh..

Not sure what's wrong..

If you are interested in native Android game development, you may take a look at this:

https://sitoberger.de/wiki/doku.php?id=getting_started

I wrote a little game for android and as I had a lot of problems with the gradle build system, the OpenGl and jni stuff I decided to share my work and experiences with you.

This little 2D game engine is designed to be very easy to use. You do not have to deal with any OpenGl or android specific stuff.

It supports all the basic functions a game needs (displaying graphics, motion, sound, the google play games services...)

Of course your can also take a look at the build system set up and so on to use it for other projects. I managed to get Android Studio to interpret native code but still using the Android.mk and Application.mk file with all of it's possibilities.

Feel fee to use this project for any kind of non profit projects. It is absolutely free!

If you have questions or any other comments/suggestions, feel free to ask them.

I am very excited what you will build up on my work :D

[Mogul, XV6800 General] mstevens:
I've got a new Sprint Mogul that I'm syncing with Windows Vista Home Premium. I have "Mobile Favorites" checked under Change Content Sync Settings. During synchronization, sometimes all or nearly all of my favorites from the Mogul disappear on both the desktop and the handheld.

This occurs often enough that I regularly copy a backup of the folder on both sides since I have to restore it a couple of times per day. It's pretty annoying, since I really do want to be able to edit, add, and maintain mobile favorites on my desktop.

The behavior is thus far unpredictable and inconsistent. Often I can go several syncs without it happening, then favorites suddenly vaporize. One consistent feature is that only favorites in folders disappear - the 2 that are in the root favorites folder never do. Often, the most recently-used, added, or edited on the Mogul will survive, while the rest disappear. Typically, favorites are safe until I use PIE then are liable to vanish, but sometimes I can use it without this happening.

Does anyone have any ideas what's going on and how I can stop it?
