[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] larsuck:
Well, Doug is probably coming from some other forum where a new "Which is the best ROM?" kind of post is started each week. It is a natural question, but it gets old after a while.

In the Hermes thread for example, there are multiple kitchens for making ROMs, so everyone and his brother are putting out new ROMs constantly that suit their needs. Asking which is the best is kind of like asking which restaurant is best in San Francisco. There are good ones and bad ones, cheap ones and expensive ones, it is all a matter of taste.

At this point though, with three or so cooked ROMs out for the Kaiser, I think it might be a valid question. Most knowledgable people will have tried all three and come to some sort of conclusion.

Yeah really ! why would this piss anybody off ?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] hackmania:
o man so grinch for a response I know is a dumb question but since i bought the phone today just want to know from the experts

I'm no newbie since I own a tytn,treo 750,mda vario and a kaiser but i will respect all people on the forum
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] TaurusBullba R.I.P.:
Really, a good way to find out what's best (for you) is to try them out. I know, everyone says that. But they say it for a reason. ;)

A great place to find out before flashing is to hop into the individual threads for the specific ROMS and read what's included in each and what comments (good and bad) have been posted. There's only a few ROMs out at the moment, so that won't be hard at all.

Usually when anyone starts a thread like this they just want someone to throw out an easy "The best ROM is...". I am personally using the HTC stock at the moment. I like it for now, others don't. So, you'll have to decide for yourself.

Have fun finding out! :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jomo25:
My issue with the question is that if there truly was a "best ROM so far" available, it would be posted as such and probably stickied. The point is that there is no BEST, even with only 3 of them out there. Each is different.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] vasquja:
I've tried all three ROMs and seem to be about the same. Only differences are the apps included, and storage space. Check them out and see for yourself.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] SAppie:
Kaiser Roms, which is best?

I spent the last two days testing out all the variants of the ROMS out there, and there are pretty much only 4 English versions available.

Here you go, a nice summary of the results in one quick read, but i've not included the links to the files, some work for you :)

1. the stock HTC one - RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.exe (uses WM6 CE OS 5.2.1620)

and then 3 or so (because he has sub versions to remove unnecessary programs) variants of the same ROM by Helmi:

2. helmi_Kaiser_1.57.000.1_AKU.0.7.0.Cooked.exe - a cooked version based on HTC WWE version but has newer WM6 CE base code (WM6 CE OS 5.2.1908)

3. Helmi_Kaiser_1.57.00.02_AKU.0.7.0.Cooked.exe - another cooked version of HTC_WWE version but has selectable "activator" directory of cabs that the user can install as desired. Also uses same WM6 CE OS 5.2.1908 as above.

4. Helmi_Kaiser_1.57.00.03_AKU.0.7.0.Cooked.exe - yet another flavour, but this one has virtually all extra programs removed in a good attempt at freeing up as much memory as possible, it also uses a newer version of WM6 CE OS 5.2.1921.

see Helmi's link for all the info. My hats off to you Helmi.

In the end, I decided to go with the standard version as released by HTC, as I didn't notice much of a difference myself. I have naturally upgraded various cabs and installed my ideal base set of apps to get the machine setup as I prefer. My decision to go this way was based on what I prefer and you should really try the ROMS yourself to make the correct decision, I didn't try every program with each version so perhaps i missed things.

I upgraded the Radio to version 1.27.12.17. -(this doesn't appear to make any difference to my terrible radio reception or the random dropping off of the radio link to GSM, neither does selecting the gsm option under band instead of auto). Thank god that I don't use 3G as there seems to be a real problem with the UMTS radio code. I just hope that I don't have a hardware fault, but I doubt it as numerous other people and links reflect similar issues to mine. We can only hope that HTC will release new RADIO code soon.

So, I wish you well in your endeavor to find "the perfect ROM".....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] silkshadow:
While I wouldn't have posted "best rom" question (as I agree, that is so subjective), that is a great help SAppie! Thanks!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] anagarika:
Agree and Disagree

Not wanting to piss everyone off :o

I think the OP was requesting ROM test result and comparison, like SAppie comment, as I also agree there's no such thing as 'best ROM'.

Now, there're release with WM6.5 and others. Anyone can update this with newer ROM's comparison?

As a newbie in WM myself, some of the thread has 1000 pages .. to read all will be tough, but sometimes that's the only way. The FAQ and sticky is helpful as starting point for me ..

Ok, I have got G900F and I know EXACTLY what I want, but cant find the threads of reference cause this has become ridiculous, so many versions of the phone, so many topics, so many threads that are basically the same ..

I have G900F with android 5.0, baseband version G900FXXU1BOJ3

1. I want to root it, is this thread ok ? >> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2699648

question number 2 is unanswerable using search. both XDA search and google. You only get tangled in unneeded information and chaos. Please help me as I have lost 2 hours clicking links that I dont need ..
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
1.) Recommended way to root is to flash TWRP 3.0.2.0 (Custom recovery), then flash SuperSU from TWRP

You can also try flashing CF Auto Root with ODIN 3.10.7

http://download.chainfire.eu/397/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-klte-kltexx-smg900f.zip

But that doesn't always work and can cause a soft brick, needing the stock ROM flashed again to fix

Or if you don't want to trip KNOX, downgrade to KitKat, root with an app called TowelRoot, then upgrade using an app called FlashFire iirc

2.) No, you need to root Marshmallow yourself, using the TWRP & SuperSU method

You can OTA upgrade to Marshmallow, Flash TWRP 3.0.2.0, then Flash SuperSU Systemless 2.72 beta (Or whichever beta is the latest atm)

If you're not bothered about KNOX, just flash TWRP and SuperSU

You can download the latest MarshMallow stock ROM for the G900F using a tool called SamFirm

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/general/tool-samfirm-samsung-firmware-t2988647

Flash with ODIN
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Igoritza:
Ok, found out some other stuff in the meantime

1. I obviously dont have OTA option, and now I see that the version people flash via odin is not official, but Shri Lanka .. ? is there an actual oficial international version of 6.0 ?

2. I started following mega-thread for S5 and downloaded ODIN and started downloading CWM but I guess I should listen to you - I would root it with TWRP, I mean the version I am on now

I will wait for better reactions for 6.0 as I have read a lot of 6.0 feedback thread and people are complaining .. maybe noobs, but still.

thanks again man, you simplified it for me

will report once I root current version
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
If you are stock (Not rooted or custom recovery) you have OTA option

Otherwise set SamFirm tool up like this, and you'll get the United Kingdom Unbranded 6.0.1 (Change the region to whichever one you want)

---------- Post added at 00:22 ---------- Previous post was at 00:19 ----------

I've been running 6.0.1 for a while now on my G900F, and I get better battery life (6-8 hours SoT) and much better performance

Easy enough to flash back to whichever ROM you want, the G900F is unlocked

Make a nandroid backup in TWRP, then you can restore that to exactly the way the phone was when you created the backup

[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] Kamikaze62:
Hi, I'm trying to simulate a long press of the home button in order to launch 'Google now on tap' as my phone (elephone p9000, stock 6.0, rooted) has got rid of the navigation bar in favour of a single capacitive button, which uses the long press function to launch recent apps instead of Google now on tap and I can't find any other way to launch this service. You can bring the navigation bar back but this interferes with other functionality I have set up now. Can anyone please tell me either an app that can run a script to simulate the home key long press or alternatively another way to create a shortcut to launch Google now on tap as right now I'm having to go into settings reactivate the navigation bar, long press home and then deactivate it after. Not exactly streamlined! Thanks for any advice.
[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] mrks01:
Would be great to be able to assign Google now on tap to the fast access Button on the left. I miss it myself and dont want to use one Screen Navigation.
[Elephone P9000 Questions & Answers] Kamikaze62:
There's actually 2 very straightforward ways of doing this, one of which is I thought I'd tried but obviously not very well. You can launch the Now on Tap feature by assigning it to a gesture in either LMT pie control or another 3rd party app called All In 1 Gestures. If this isn't clear just ask.

my phone felt accidentally in water , it was misbehaving so i decided to put it in a bag of rice, in the night. Took it back the next morning , and thank God it is working. But it's still misbehaving.The phone enables and disables car mode randomly as soon as i connect it to the PC using the USB Cable. And it doesnt even charge with that cable (nor does it with a different USB cable) . i have to restart the phone.After the reboot, it starts charging (but doesnt show up on the computer).

For one second i thought it was a software problem. Hence, i installed a custom ROM but still facing the same problem.

Any help will be appreciated.

Is this device rooted? I can provide possible fixes if you have root and less successful ones for non-root.

---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:47 AM ----------

That being said, the non-root procedure would be to try to force stop all Google services. Also, try clearing data on them. Check if the play store has updates for them.
[General Questions and Answers] samuhang:
Hi TechGuyAnthony yes it is rooted
[General Questions and Answers] TechGuyAnthony:
Ok. That makes things a bit easier. You could try and get a gapps package like one from

http://opengapps.org

Though you can get one anywhere. I can kinda tell that your home screen is pretty new so I'd think out of the architecture options you have it might be Arm64. But I'd make sure with CPU-Z or something like that.

Once downloaded place on either internal or external storage. Reboot into recovery (custom recovery needed such as, TWRP, CWM, etc) and install the package. As far as I know this is a google apps issue but if it still doesn't work then you are gonna need to factory reset or something.

[General Questions and Answers] TechGuyAnthony:
Stock comes with every google app that is usually shipped with Samsung devices. You can choose that if you want but if you really want to squeeze a little extra storage into your phone then go with Mini

Like I said above, Mini is good for getting that little extra space out of your phone without loosing google features (I.e., Play store, YouTube, etc

hi i've just followed your above mentioned method but unfortunately i'm still having same issue. I think the only option left for me is to do factory reset :(

Finally after so many attempts i was able to figure it out what was causing my settings to crash whenever i clicked on the Google icon.

Cleared its cache and data. Now its working fine. I have also hidden that nasty app so that i dont click it by accident again. ?. Gosh i'll always remain a noob ?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalewb:
Hello,

I'm new to much of this. I want to flash Android M to my Nexus 4 but I am heeding many people's warnings to backup my device. However, nothing I've tried has allowed me to do so. In my searches, I discovered this thread that enables OTG flash drive support for Nexus 4 phones:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66226991&postcount=48

But when I installed it over the stock TWRP 3.0.2.0, it showed an external slot with 0MB and would not allow me to select it. I've tried various flash drives, all formatted to FAT 32, I've tried a powered external USB 3.0 drive enclosure (NTFS formatted) - nothing works. The cable I'm using is not a "Y" cable, which is why I tried using my external backup drive, which is powered but NTFS. Is that the issue?

Finally I decided, to heck with it, I'll just create a nandroid backup to my phone's storage and then drag it onto my PC, but it only has 4.5GB free space left. I could go and uninstall most of my apps, but what is the point of backing it up then? I need almost 9GB of space on a device that has just 16GB.

This crap is so frustrating. I expect installing Marshmallow would be hard, but I did not expect a backup, which should be a simple operation, to be so challenging :( Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] audit13:
Did you try twrp 2.8.7?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalewb:
Thanks for the suggestion - I just tried it. Using all the methods listed in my post (using straight non-Y cable) I get not OTG option when specifying storage location - just internal storage. I've ordered a OTG Y cable and will post back here if that helps.

Also, I purchased the "Live" option, thinking that would back my phone up to the cloud. After reading a bit, it appears that premium feature allows you to create a nandroid backup without booting to recovery mode. It's just about useless though because it requires selinux to be set to permissive - AFAICT, selinux is always set to something else and the process to get it set to permissive is pretty advanced and looks like a PITA. I guess the live option would be really cool for you advanced users...

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalewb:
Thanks and solution

Thanks to those of you who suggested different things. The solution ended up being a combination of things - needed the Y cable (that allows power and USB flash drive to be plugged into phone at same time) and the TWRP build for Nexus 4 with OTG support. Once those two things were in place, I was able to select my flash storage device. The backup was right at 9GB - pretty big!

I just purchased what I believe to be a Tonghai unit based on specs (it has not arrived yet) - LINK - and would really like to add a dash cam into the mix. I would prefer to use USB over RCA to keep quality as high as possible and resource usage as low as possible.

I don't want to end up with a 32gb sd card that's useless because my phone just got rooted. Please answer soon! :)
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MobileHD:
To my knowledge rooting your phone doesn't format it, however that being said; in order to root your phone you must first unlock your bootloader

which will indeed format your phone

(take out your memory card as a precaution) there is a guide as to how to unlock your bootloader here in case you haven't already.

Once that's done the next step is to flash TWRP (custom recovery) to your device, get the latest version here then copy the .img file to where you have installed Minimal ADB and Fastboot then follow these instructions:

1. Switch off the phone, press & hold "Volume Down" & "Power" & release after 4-5 seconds to enter fastboot mode.

2. Connect phone to PC . You will see "USB Connected" on the phone screen.

3. Type "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-titan.img" & press "Enter" Key.

4. After flashing is complete, disconnect your phone.

5. Use Volume Down to scroll to Recovery Option & then press Volume Up to Select Recovery to boot into TWRP.

6. Inside TWRP, Select "Mount", uncheck everything & select "System" only & go back.

7. Select "Advanced", select "File Manager" & go to the following directories & delete the following files

- /system/etc/install-recovery.cfg & install-recovery.sh (if present)

- /system/recovery-from-boot.p or recovery-from-boot.bak (if present)

Now your device is ready to be rooted, follow the guide here and that's it!
