[X Style (Pure) General] SenK9:
Hi all,

I combined the default installed packages on most of the popular ROMs for this phone in an easy to read spreadsheet. Now you can see what differences each ROM has in stock installed packages, for me it was useful to check if a particular system app was available on another ROM without having to install that ROM. All the ROM maintainers do a great job, it was hard to decide.

Included is the stock Motorola 24.49.18.3 (Marshmallow) ROM, compared to TrupureXMM, Temasek, Vanilla CM13, AICP, Bliss, Dirty Unicorns and the Nexus 5X CM13 ROM (as it uses the SD808 as well, some of the system and radio packages will be the same).

The motivation for this was noticing a few unrecognised system apps in the ROM I was using, then I wondered if they existed on other ROMs, or the stock ROM as well. I built the list by extracting the system .dat images and pulling the package names from the manifest XMLs to make comparing easier. It's now all scripted so adding more ROMs is quick.

Hopefully this will help some people decide on ROMs or raise some questions as to what different packages are. For example, what is com.motorola.motocit or com.verizon.omadm or com.android.sprint.lifetimedata doing on AOSP and is it required?

Full Spreadsheet can be viewed/downloaded here:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YRD2NDWg9JPvOy6WMytF3HXQu69fTX-OlJfWT4MRJjg/edit?usp=sharing

Screenshot (partial):

Note:

* These are just packages only, does not correlate to features, or performance/reliability, etc. Just for reference/curiosity only. Any questions about the ROMs themselves please go to the ROM thread, the maintainers have put in alot of hard work on their ROMs.

* Removing pre-installed apps may have adverse effects, also will not free up space as the /system partition has a pre-set size.

* If there are other ROMs you want added, let me know. Depending on public interest, I might add human-friendly names, or more information like permissions required / file size.
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OOPMan:
Hi guys

I just got a Redmi Note 2 a few days ago. I'm already tired of MIUI again so I decided to install TWRP and flash a custom ROM. I downloaded three roms:

AICP Unofficial Port: http://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-2/orig-development/rom-android-ice-cold-project-10-0-t3288971

CM 12.1 Nightly Unofficial Port: http://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-2/development/rom-unofficial-t3310551

MoKee CM 12.1 Unofficial Port: http://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-2/orig-development/rom-cm-12-1-mokee-bule-mokee-blue-t3328382

Unfortunately I discovered I was only able to install the AICP roms. With the other ROMS when I attempted to install I received a message of the form:

"This rom is for device hermes. You device is."

If I hadn't been able to install AICP I would have been left with a very new brick :mad:

I want to know if anyone else has encountered this issue before. If so, what was the cause and were you able to solve it?
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarthJabba9:
There is something in /system/build.prop that is not identifying the device as "hermes".

Either edit the build.prop, so that:

ro.product.device=hermes

ro.build.product=hermes

Or edit the updater-script files in the ROM packages, to comment out the line that looks for ro.product.device or ro.build.product being "hermes".
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OOPMan:
I see. Does build.prop persist if I perform a wipe of system?
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DarthJabba9:
If you wipe system, then nothing

should

persist (ie, nothing

should

be there at all). How the scripts that look for "hermes" in build.prop will then react to that situation is anyone's guess. I would imagine that they would still fail, because the variables that they are querying would not exist, and an undefined value might be returned (unless they are searching for it elsewhere - eg, in TWRP itself). The best solution, in my opinion is to edit the updater-scripts in the zip install packages to comment out the line that searches for "hermes".

---------- Post added at 12:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:01 PM ----------

I have just examined the ramdisk of the latest TWRP from jajk, (see http://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-2/general/twrp2-8-7-0-light-materialized-theme-t3308492) and the embedded default.prop has an "ro.product.device=hermes" entry. So it seems that the updater scripts might be querying TWRP rather than /system/build.prop.

You might want to install jajk's TWRP. This should solve your problem without your needing to do anything drastic.
[Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tonydeli7:
Yeap, DarthJabba9 is right.

Also, I would like to add that, most updater-scripts run the format /system command, so you could just wipe the other partitions and let the script format your system partition.

Hi Manuel.

While T-Mobile has agreed to enable FM in their devices, they are not yet selling devices with NextRadio support. We expect this will happen later this year, but we don't have a definite date from them yet.

If you like, you can subscribe to our email alerts from our website at http://nextradioapp.com/.

I have a N7 2013 LTE running 4.4.4 (KTU84P). I bought it about a year ago, but haven't really used it. I now plan on using it, and want the Stagefright et al. security vulnerabilities taken care of. To that end I want to upgrade to the most current release of stock ROM.

My question is, if it turns out that the newest ROM is the suck, is it possible to downgrade to something else perhaps as far back as what is currently on the device (4.4.4 KTU84P)? Any 'gotchas?'

I bought a new canvas a1 for one of my family member . it's not booting up and currently running on mm 6.0.1 .

Here's from which problem started -

I updated Android system web view app after which it took optimising app at every reboot (more than 80 apps) .

I went to stock recovery and wiped data , phone stuck in bootloop , after trying 3-4 times I again went to stock recovery and factory reseted phone ....now also it's not booting up ....what to do ????

Condition: never rooted

Never installed custom recovery

Bootloader locked.

Hey, just try to unlock its bootloader and flash a custom recovery, then get official zip of 6.0 from the thread, and do Clean wipe flash it! It'll works :D

[Android One (First-Generation) Cross-Device Genera] Utkarsh Tiwari:
Firstly connect your phone to PC and update device drivers. Then PC should be able to recognize your phone and you should be able to unlock bootloader of your A1 via cmd or ANDROID ONE TOOLKIT.

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

It will install adb & fastboot on your PC and also google usb drivers.

Just connnect your phone and update the drivers from Device Manager.

After that you can try all that stuff

This is really weird, but reinstalled the PDAVIET rom the other day, and now I've noticed that whenever I soft reset the phone, and I go into my messaging ... I've lost messages.

Even my gmail account that's setup via pop3 on the phone loses like the last couple messages, and then re-downloads them and they show up as new.

With SMS or MMS, it seems the last couple of txts or mms I received dissappear... it's really strange and that's never happened to me before

Anyone have any ideas as to why and how to fix that?

This is not a rant thread, this just a discussion. I don't understand why samsung doesn't produce such a high quality tablet like the s7.

Except that it doesn't.

Whichever way you cut it, Windows 10 isn't a tablet OS. I have a Surface Pro 3, and before that had a Surface 3, 2, and RT.

Whilst they are all very good machines, I can count on one hand the number of times I used them without a keyboard as a tablet - I'd almost invariably pick up an Android tablet instead.

I can't see the TabPro being any different.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Abelu:
For a tablet with the brilliant quality as S7, the tablet price will be expensive than S7. For a small market with a expensive price, that is not a good strategy.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Toss3:
That's just because you are used to using Windows a certain way. Tab Pro S with Windows 10 is infinitely better than Android, because now it can actually run decent applications and you don't have to worry about it not getting updates. The hardware isn't the best though, and would have wished for something larger and faster (surface pro 4 competitor with amoled screen).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] foxmeister:
Have to disagree. Most of the touch optimised W10 apps aren't a patch on their iOS or Android equivalents, or simply don't exist.

Yes, you can run "real" apps, but that isn't giving you a tablet experience.

Don't get me wrong, I like Windows 10, but a tablet OS it is not.

You can run anew app that let's you run android in a window so you can have windows and Android!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] foxmeister:
I know you can run Android on Windows via apps like Bluestacks, but why bother?

The other thing about using W10 as a tablet OS is generally lousy standby time. I can pick up any of my Android tablets after a few days of non use and there will still be a decent amount of battery left - not iPad levels but good enough.

My Surface Pro 3 (and Surface 3, 2, and RT before) would generally have discharged itself completely long before the Android tablets.

Maybe a lot of G5 maybe returned but I doubt the S7/Edge as they have a lot more advantage over the HTC 10 such like water/dust proofing, fast wireless charging, much better re-sale value, screen quality, potentially a faster and reliable camera to name but a few. The G5 was just a rushed prototype, perhaps they'll get it right next flagship as I like the modular concept.

I used jump on demand for lg g5 from s7 edge and now i think i will jump again to htc 10. Only reason i jumped from s7 edge was hifi plus module but it looks like it will take a long time to come to us. In the meantime, the idea of buying module kinda died on me and now i am thinking why should i spend extra 200 bucks for module if htc 10 comes with a great audio? So yes as soon as htc 10 becomes available i am jumping again. I have to say if i have to choose between s7 edge and g5, i will pick s7 edge fast. I regretted jumpimg to g5 and that was the first time i felt regretted while in jump on demand program lol. S7 edge is that good, it has most of things right and i only wished they had an extra good audio. Only the idea of getting module resisted my thought of returning.
