I don't go out and criticize people just because they do what they love.

I am getting jobs offers because of things I do here and on github.

I am grown up and trying to turn my hobby into a job.

Question for you. Are you really that sensitive that you have to write an essay, when you see things which you don't like?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] Grarak:
So giving people choices is a bad thing? Nobody forced or asked you to install a custom roms. It's your choice.

Stay on stock, nobody said it's bad. Let people do what they want. In the end it's their phone.

Fwiw, I and a lot of others totally appreciate the work you put into development.

And anyone who's done anything like it generally understands that development tends to get done in "free time" like weekends or late nights rather than because of not having a job and wanting to play around.

Sure, it'd be great to be independently wealthy and jobless and be able to completely devote time to development, rather than taking time that significant others consider better spent on chores or work to follow our hobbies.

Sharing source and binaries is what keeps the software world from turning into a closed source blob, and independent developers like you are key to that movement.

Thanks for your contributions.

Don't let opinionated rants throw you off. Everybody's got an opinion, but the personally offensive ones should really be kept quiet or directed to individuals rather than flaming in open forum.

Require TWRP recovery

Someone please tell me how can I get TWRP recovery for my htc desire 816 dual sim (a5dwg)??? In the TWRP site the recovery is available for htc desire 816 single sim (a5). I don't want to use cyanogen recovery, please someone give me TWRP recovery img for my dual sim variant.

Can I use the recovery for A5 variant on my A5dwg variant???:(:(:(:(:(
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] bigsupersquid:
You should be able to use it. The devices are very similar. Small changes in radio and stuff that shouldn't break twrp.

If you're nervous about losing the working-if-unwanted recovery you've got, fastboot boot twrp instead of fastboot flash it and it'll only run once, until you exit it.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] theandroidguy:
I know flashing the recovery img using Mobile uncle tools or flashify, I dont know how to use fastboot method, so I want to be 100% sure that A5 recovery will work with A5dwg or not:)

usb otg problem

Last night when I tried to paste downloaded nightly on my USB, it seems that my a5dug stopped recognize it.

When I plug it in, screen goes on, but usb icon in status bar doesn't show and any of installed file explorers with root access can't "see" it.

Very the same usb otg and flash works well on my tablet and pc. So, right now I am stuck with updating because of this usb situation and the old problem with recovery that can't access/find dir with downloaded OTA. Anybody had this problem? Any idea how to solve this?

P.S.: Charging process goes normally...

Edit: Tried with formatting flash drive, pasting OTA file in internal memory, no luck... Can't install OTA update, since TWRP doesn't see sdcard or somehow doesn't have privilege to do so; can't backup since internal memory is not big enough... Totally stuck without USB OTG. Any help/hint would be highly appreciated.

EDIT: OTA solution 1 - When OTA arrives, new path is to be as follows:- "data\media\0\cmupdater ". Place a copy of the latest nightly here (make "cmupdater" dir in data\media\0). tnx [MENTION=7251016]chrisled[/MENTION]2

OTA solution 2 - adb sideload ("15 seconds ADB Installer v1.4.3" worked for me). tnx [MENTION=4638083]Snoop05[/MENTION]

Hi. Great work on the build. Everything seems to work great. But i'm always face this one gps bug. Tried 3 nightlys till now. All of them had it. Gps seems to work fine at first with normal maps application but as soon as i start navigation, it gets stuck on "searching for gps" with a greyed gps icon on map. Anyone else faced this? If yes, please let me know if there's a fix :)

Hello,

I installed CM13 to my HTC D816 A5_DUG CID: 622 using the latest TWRP recovery.

I did a complete wipe including internal storage.

Flashed the CM zip file, cleaned cache - then I flashed GApps.

Got the CM logo, then installing GApps - then seen the "Welcome Screen" to select language.

Now, Everytime I tap the NEXT button, it hangs for 3 secs and restarts automatically. Tried many times.

Tried clearing cache after GApps installation - no go, same result.

Tried doing a factory reset after CM and GApps installation - same result.

Anyone can help me figure this out? Thanks in advance!
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] phamtlsoft:
Try with another Gapps. Download here then select ARM platform,android 6.0 .
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] emompong:
Thanks for your reply. You think that's on GApps?

I already tried micro and nano at same result.

Also, tried flashing using fastboot, getting error that there's no adroid info.text if I can remember.

EDIT: Also, tried to reboot without flashing the Gapps, same result happens. So can anyone help with this? I did a back read for 22 pages of conversation here, seen that others have the same problem too.

Tried the other reply to backup after installation of CM and restore it. - same problem for me.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] bigsupersquid:
Delete /system/priv-app/SetupWizard after a clean flash with no gapps, or delete that file and /system/priv-app/GoogleSetupWizard after flashing gapps, in recovery, then reboot
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] emompong:
Thanks for your idea.

I did tried this and in fact, after flashing CM Zip and before or after GApps, TWRP File manager shows only an empty "bin" folder in /system folder. I did tried to look further and seen the /data/data folder.

Inside it, I've seen folders for:

com.google.android.setupwizard

com.google.android.onetimeinitializer

and com.cyanogenmod.setupwizard

everyone of them is empty, so I attempted to delete them and restart - same result.

Also, after going back to recovery - file manager, those folder were there again. I think the permission for those folder are set and so far, that's what I can report. Can't bypass the "welcome screen"

any other suggestions?
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] bigsupersquid:
You have to mount system in recovery before you can manipulate it.

Delete any folder in priv-app that says SetupWizard.

Then try again.

If you're not seeing etc, xbin, and so on in system it's not mounted correctly.

And you may have to grant system rw permission in recovery, it could be on ro if you swiped the slider without realizing the first time twrp was run.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] emompong:
Thanks. Im not seeing anything inside /system folder aside from /bin(which is empty)

I was mounted to system under twrp settings.

Tho im not sure how to set permission to rw. Can you help me with the code for adb or fastboot?

Also.. forgot to mention that im on S-ON.. so i think thats the reason why whenever I delete /data/data/com.cyanogenmod.setupwizard.. it re-appears again after boot.

... EDIT: I figured how to mount system as rw using adb shell.

Deleted cyanogen and google setupwizard. Booted to homescreen. Thanks!

Now.. whenever I turn on wifi.. it automatically restarts.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] bigsupersquid:
mine is s-on, I don't wanna pay $25 for sunshine s-off.

if system only has /bin directory something isn't right. That's after flashing the rom/gapps? I guess you could try with adb, but twrp file manager should see /system fine.

with adb running with twrp, you can type

mount | grep system

and it should have some output if /system is actually mounted. You can type the same in twrp shell.

if it is mounted according to that command, and you only see the bin subfolder in /system, I don't know how it boots. In which case I admit total confusion.

some /data/data stuff gets regenerated at boot by the android system. the setupwizard showing itself there just means it's not removed from /system/priv-app.
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] emompong:
As I edited my previous note:

I figured how to mount system as rw using adb shell. I used mount -o rw,remount,rw /system

Deleted cyanogen and google setupwizard. Booted to homescreen. Thanks!

Now.. whenever I turn on wifi.. it automatically restarts

Also.. when i swipe down from notif bar, it wont allow me to see toggles? Is this normal?

Cyanogen Logo Blinks only when i start the phone. i cant to go recovery mode and anything else.

Please help me to recover my phone...
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] nageswarswain:
I think the problem must be because of the gapps you choose. Full gapps need more space but that has nothing to deal with the recovery. What is happening when you power on your device?

pretty sure he's busy with the OnePlus2.

no a5 activity on his github for a while.

I can't even afford the time and bandwidth for the single sim variant to get nightlies... Dwg/dug are getting updates as fast as the single sim versions. Everything N for a5 is alpha right now, N hasn't been out that long and lots of other devices are getting alphas instead of betas or stable releases too.

Still, you're asking the right developer, if anybody could get the dwg up to speed it'd be grarak.

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] theandroidguy:
Okk so I've figured out a cumbersome way to switch between 2G and 3G in CM13.

(Note: You can either use 2G or 3G)

Flash your stock rom, change SIM 1 network setting to GSM ONLY.

Now open keypad, dial *#*#4636#*#*, engineering mode will open, go to phone information, and change 'preffered network type' to "GSM only". Now restore or flash CM13. You will get 2G speed.

For restoring back to 3G, flash stock rom once again, change sim 1 network settings to GLOBAL MODE, go to engineering mode nd change network type to "Lte, WCDMA". Now again restore CM13, you will get 3G speed:)

[Desire 816 Original Android Development] bigsupersquid:
Latest nightly is here

https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=a5dwg

10/15/2016. That one has problems with camera and music player? Did you try backup and then clean flash? (Wipe system cache and data in twrp>wipe>advanced wipe)

That way you can see if it's other settings or software messing up those two functions. If they work with clean flash it's not a rom issue. The backup lets you go back to your current setup if you don't want to reinstall apps and fix settings after the clean flash

This boot.img is not fixing the otg problem, so I restored back my original boot.img. I'm using stick mount to mount my usb drive and the drive is accessible only through ES file explorer, cm explorer nd htc file manager is not detecting. TWRP and mx player are detecting them. When I plug in my otg, a notification appears that corrupted usb drive detected nd needs to be formatted, so when I try to format, it shows errors nd fails. Can u plz tell me how can I format the otg using the terminal app of cm ROM
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] bigsupersquid:
I was afraid of that.

I wouldn't format it in terminal, I'd try formatting it in twrp since it sees the drive OK. If cm still won't automatically mount the drive after that, there's a more hidden problem.

Twrp has a different kernel and rootfs than cm13, that's probably why it can read the drive while cm can't.

You could pastebin dmesg after cm fails to mount the drive, and after it fails to format the drive, if you want, more clues there

In terminal

su
dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.text
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] theandroidguy:
Ohh then I must open cm terminal and type these codes
[Desire 816 Original Android Development] bigsupersquid:

not yet but better odds getting cm14 working than pure aosp. I'd like pure aosp better myself but haven't nailed down all the source changes needed to build more than a generic version without hardware drivers.

it'd help if my pc didn't keep shutting down during building from a weak power supply. i can probably afford to replace it by March or so... if lucky sooner. but building any rom is slow going right now, much less debugging.

ot for thread though, cm14 questions should go in cm14 thread.
