[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChorizoBlanco:
I just bought a S5 and it came with Lolipop. I've read somewhere that Marshmellow is available for this version, how can I update it ? Also, I'd like to know how to remove the "This sim card is not from Verizon" message that pops up when I turn on the phone. Thanks !
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] B4oE:
This morning I flashed through bootloader the new TWRP that was available for my ZTE Axon 7. After flashing it, I did a backup of Boot, Data and System, which is the default backup. Then I flashed SuperSU. When I tried testing my backup by restoring it through TWRP, it simply bootlooped after I restarted. I am frustrated because I have no idea what to do next. I cannot find a stock firmware for my US version Axon 7. PLEASE HELP!!!

Try Wipe Cache - Dalvik - Data on TWRP

I know you'll need to reinstall everything but hey may fix your bootloop problem
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TeutonJon78:
And so it begins...

[MENTION=3044858]DrakenFX[/MENTION], did you have a typo in your instructions? I assume you meant Data rather than Daproblem.

LoL, so dislike auto-correct , Thanks for the mention :D
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TeutonJon78:
My early morning phone typing always look like I've had a stroke.

I wonder if we really need to wipe "Cache" anymore. I haven't seen any phone even using it lately. It just sits there basically empty since they moved everything to be stored in the Davlik one on the Data partition. I know on my Nexus 4 it basically just takes up 560 MB doing nothing but storing one recovery log file. Does TWRP use it for something during install?

You are gonna have to wait until someone provides a working (flashable) backup of B20_boot, I'm guessing yours is corrupted or had user error, here I summon:

Does anyone has a clean flashable B20_boot from your TWRP backups? This guy bootlooped after trying to restore his. I would give him mine, but will probably not get my Axon 7 Gray shipped until wednesday from B&H.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] daneoleary:
Is "system.img" the stock, out-of-the-box OS?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jkuczera:
No, it would be based on B20. And if B20-boot modified the system partition, those modifications would be in there as well.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] B4oE:
I apologize for not responding sooner. I was busy at work. Someone sent me a zip to flash through TWRP, which I will upload later, and then my bootloop issue was resolved. Apparently, the problem is with TWRP. Hopefully, everything will get ironed out soon. Other than that, I'm still having a good time (although frustrating at times) tinkering with my Axon 7.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] rczrider:

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] B4oE:
I honestly do not remember their name. Someone I spoke to through Freenode (http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=twrp) simply told me to flash that zip. I just renamed it before flashing because I have a huge collection of zips for various devices. Hopefully, the one that has it can respond to my post. He/She was very helpful too!
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TeutonJon78:
No, it modifies system:

From the updater script:

ui_print("Patching system image after verification.");
show_progress(0.550000, 0);
block_image_update("/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system", package_extract_file("system.transfer.list"), "system.new.dat", "system.patch.dat") ||
abort("Failed to update system image.");
show_progress(0.050000, 10);
ui_print("Patching fastboot.img image...");
package_extract_file("fastboot.img", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/fbop");
ui_print("Patching boot image...");
apply_patch("EMMC:/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot:45946154:b5154bbd9bf32de3d1e2a287df025a483bf3c50f:45942058:c31f24136f92263b578c19356df513650a12befc",
"-", c31f24136f92263b578c19356df513650a12befc, 45942058,
b5154bbd9bf32de3d1e2a287df025a483bf3c50f, package_extract_file("patch/boot.img.p"));
ui_print("Patching recovery image...");
apply_patch("EMMC:/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/recovery:44545326:5ce0d08c1e4efdaf65879574d74611d569fa036f:44541230:a13824adb7464c22637b70ddb8b0991ff365ab4c",
"-", a13824adb7464c22637b70ddb8b0991ff365ab4c, 44541230,
5ce0d08c1e4efdaf65879574d74611d569fa036f, package_extract_file("patch/recovery.img.p"));
set_progress(1.000000);

It alters system.img, fastboot.img, boot.img, and recovery.img. By the looks of it, it modifies system.img a fair amount. Just fixing fastboot wouldn't be a 50+ MB patch.

I'm blind. I stand corrected. :p
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jcadduono:
it might have been me that linked it (i'm the maker of the zip as it shows you in the console flash ;)) but yeah that's our go-to when someone says they flashed twrp and their system won't boot. it means they swiped to enable system modifications. we should probably go about extending the warning on the swipe to enable modifications page since devices that come with marshmallow out of factory will bootloop after swiping if you don't flash supersu or the no-verity-opt-encrypt zip. (the zip disables system integrity verification in your boot image, allowing you to boot after making modifications)

you can find the original, and updates if/when i make them at https://idlekernel.com/fun-stuff-trust-me/no-verity-opt-encrypt/

how to get lte working?i really need this
[Nexus 9 Android Development] borxnx:
I am not sure it supports LTE. I only have a WiFi Nexus 9, and have no way to test it.

I'll ask [MENTION=7226752]RemixOS_Jason[/MENTION] to check on it for you.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] brightjh01:
I have been using it from when I got N9 from swappa. Tried other custom and stock ROMs. I keep coming back. Been the best so far. The last stock was dp5 haven't tried 7.0

We have the LTE one ready. I'll share in this thread the download link within 24-48 hours. Thanks!
[Nexus 9 Android Development] mangomonkey00:
its nice but i was able to get lte working on this after the whole installation had to manually flash vendor.img from latest google image
[Nexus 9 Android Development] borxnx:
From latest Google image, as in from Nougat? Wouldn't any 6.0.1 vendor image work, so long as it was more recent than the ROM build?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:
Would love another update for WiFi version as well, but I have two questions.

1. Is there any way we can be given the choice of using our own launcher? It's really frustrating.

2. If we can't, can the option be added back to not have all apps on the home screen? It was present I believe in the previous build, but it's gone again. I could have two apps on the screen, and everything else in the app drawer. Prefer that.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] RemixOS_Jason:
Hey dictionary,

I talked to migration team and, as of my writing, there is no schedule for another update for the the Wi-Fi version.

1) Currently, Remix OS doesn't support other launchers.

2) Putting this feature back into Remix OS for N9's can be done if we gather enough feedback from the community for it. Personally, I totally get the reason you'd rather have clean desktop option, but we have limited resources here and I need for the feature to be asked by many users first.

Thanks and I do hope you understand. Btw, have you tried any of our other products (ie. Remix OS for PC or Remix OS Player?) They both have the clean desktop feature.

Thanks!
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:
1) yeah, was just hoping they'd allow it.

2) I don't know why it'd be an issue, as it was there before. Shouldn't it be the same as remix for PC? I tried remix player, but it didn't run that great on my PC. I currently also run Remix for PC dual booting on my laptop. Runs great
[Nexus 9 Android Development] RemixOS_Jason:
You may want to try Remix OS Player again if you're still interested as we made some optimizations and now allow you to use all your CPU cores rather than leave at least one core for your host OS and PC.

http://www.jide.com/remixos-player#download

For tablets like N9, our product managers made a call that for touchscreen devices, there is minimal need for the Desktop mode since it's more intuitive for PC environments and keyboard and mouse input.

I'll give player another shot later today.

No disrespect to the PM's, but I vehemently disagree. There is no easy way to sort them, and putting all things in folders isn't very aesthetically pleasing. I have well over 60 apps installed, and it's just a jumbled mess. I always run a clean desktop on my devices. I find it much more intuitive having all apps right by my thumb.

If they refuse to, that's fine. I'll try to find a way to just move the launcher and file manager from my Remix OS for PC over to the n9
[Nexus 9 Android Development] RemixOS_Jason:

Decrypt the device to use TWRP, or use CF Auto Root to root without TWRP
[Nexus 9 Android Development] ins5736:
I just installed and I'm liking the launcher. It seems to be the defining characteristic so far so I get why they don't allow it to be changed. I would like to be able to have a cleaner desktop. Having all of my apps strewn about reminds me of iOS (eeeewww).
[Nexus 9 Android Development] borxnx:
I just dumped any apps I didn't want cluttering my desktop into a single folder. It works well enough for me.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:
The beauty of what I'm talking about, is that it was just a simple option. You could do how you're doing, or the other way. I liked it, because I didn't have to have anything on my desktop at all except the few apps I wanted, and everything else tucked away nicely. Not a fan of an ugly folder on my desktop that overlaps with the app drawer. Almost seems redundant. Have an app drawer with all your apps, and then force you to keep them all on the homescreen, one way or the other.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] ins5736:
I can't seem to decrypt with TWRP as its asking for a password. I tried "default_password" as that suggested in a few forums. Any ideas?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:
Only way to decrypt now will be by wiping your entire device, sadly. You'll lose all information. If you can boot into Remix, then do it. Attach to a computer, and transfer over absolutely everything that ypou want to keep. Now reboot to twrp. When of asks for a password just leave it blank and continue. Now go to Wipe, and select the data option button down below. It'll ask if you're sure and to type yes. Do it. Your entire device will be wiped, and you'll be decrypted once more. Now, reflash Remix OS. While you're doing that, search online for FedPatcher v8. It's a flashable zip that will patch your boot IMG, so you won't automatically encrypt on boot. BEFORE YOU REBOOT, reboot to recovery. Press the volume down button to select Hboot, and from there, select recovery. This will bring you back to TWRP. Flash FedPatcher v8. NOW you can reboot. From there on you'll be able to access twrp. Several ROMs I've found encrypt on first boot without even letting you know. Very annoying. I've gotten in the habit of flashing fed patcher whenever I flash a new ROM now, just to ensure this issue doesn't happen again. It's very annoying
[Nexus 9 Android Development] vincenzo697:
Did you had time for the LTE easy install package? And if we are on stock nougat can we flash it safely?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] glockman4519:
You are absolutely correct about the use of FED patch for stopping encryption. I use it on every rom test that I do, just to be safe, and it has saved my bacon on more than one occasion.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] borxnx:
I will not be making an easy install package for the LTE version, as this ROM will likely not be updated by Jide and I am not even using it on my N9 anymore.

Just download the files from RemixOS and flash using fastboot commands. They have a tutorial for you if you need.

http://www.jide.com/remixos/devices/nexus9

Then flash the Vendor image from the volantisg stock MM firmware. LTE should work.

Being on stock Nougat doesn't make any difference.

Thanks for the info, but i went back to stock Nougat as it felt awkward after i tried it on the jide ultra tablet .

Not working for 7.1.1?

Hi! First of all, thanks for writing up this guide, however I ran into a problem:

I followed this tutorial but it didn't work. Coming from stock (unlocked) device running 7.1.1.

First I unlocked, successfully, then I ran the batch file. It ran for a few minutes and ended with:

checking version-bootloader...
FAILED

Device version-bootloader is '3.50.0.0143'.
Update requires '3.48.0.0135'

finished. total time: 0.039s
Press any key to exit...

After this, I pressed space to exit, but the device still shows the same fastboot screen. The top now says:

*** Device State - UNLOCKED ***
FLOUNDER PVT SHIP

I waited for about an hour just to make sure there's nothing else running, and since nothing happened, I just rebooted.

Now it just shows "Google" with the old font (as opposed to the new font Google uses now). I can still boot into the fastboot mode, but nothing else. What should I do now?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:
Are you prepared to lose all your data on the device?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dollarside:
Yup, I already backed up all my data prior. What do you suggest is the problem?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:
Okay. Not sure if you'll need to do it my exact way, but this is what I always do whenever I come back to this ROM, and it works every time without fail.

I place everything I'll need into one folder. I don't use the method that the OP uses, and instead fastboot flash everything. I'm going to assume that you've downloaded the file, and extracted all of the contents to the folder where your adb and fastboot are. Once done, look for another zip (I forget the exact name, but it won't be unzipped once you do the first extraction. Inside that zip, you'll have your system.img, boot.img, etc. Once you have everything (bootloader-xxxxx.img, boot.img, cache.img, vendor.img, system.img), start up fastboot. Boot the phone into bootloader (volume down + power and hold). Fastboot flash TWRP.

On the phone, press volume down (I think twice) until you see Recovery Mode. Press the power button once. Wait for TWRP to load. If it doesn't ask for a password, you're already unencrypted. Go to Wipe, then Advanced Wipe, and wipe Data, Cache, System, and Dalvik. Go back to the main screen, and press Reboot. Select Bootloader. Don't worry when it says no OS installed. If it asks for a password, ignore. Go to Wipe, and then Wipe Data. It'll prompt you to type Yes. Do it. It'll wipe your device. Now repeat steps about with wiping (probably irrelevant, but why not). Do the same and reboot bootloader.

Fastboot flash the bootloader that's provided. fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-xxxx.img. Once that's completed, on your device, select reboot fastboot. You should now be on the old bootloader. Next, fastboot flash boot boot.img. fastboot flash cache cache.img. fastboot flash vendor vendor.img. fastboot flash system system.img. Once all of those are done, success. You can select reboot, and press power. It may take a while, but you'll be booting up into Remix. If you want to retain TWRP, and stay decrypted, you'll have to select hboot, then reboot recovery. Once you're back in TWRP, you'll need to transfer a kernel to the device which won't force encrypt.
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dollarside:
Thanks for the reply! Okay, I will try this later next week. One question though, you said

Do I type in "fastboot flash TWRP"?
[Nexus 9 Android Development] dictionary:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img. Essentially whatever name your TWRP file is. If it's TWRP311 then type that

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] ctibor:
IMO it would be useful to compare the new WM6 ROMs regarding the memory leaking. I mean mainly the ROMs with Home Plugin and/or Cube, because they proved to be quite memory hungry.

I think the latest versions should be counted: Tom's B&B 4.3, Meschle's Touch 3.0 and/or 3.01, and Vanilla 2.0, Bepe's build 0.53, maybe Fracoon's 2.2 too. But every experience on any rom regarding RAM decrease can be interesting.

I launch this thread because, as I see, this problem is the weakest point of many cooked rom (and maybe of the official versions too). So, let's say: after a half-day-long usage, without soft reset but running e.g. Tomtom, Windows Messenger, Ms Office, any music player etc. how much free Program memory (RAM) do you have? (Before measuring close all programs and run Hibernate once.)

I konow it's impossible to have an exact picture since every PDA is different, some owner-installed programs can be a big memory-consumer, but anyhow, sharing our experience might show some tendencies and help us to choose the ROM nearest to our needs.

So I begin:

Currently using Tom's 4.3, after half a day of normal usage it's around 18-19 M (from 25). -- IMO it's not bad, I've heard about far bigger leakage.

My previous rom was HTC official WM6 (3.13.405.1 WWE) it also started with around 25 M and 'ended' with 20 M. (but it doesn't have Cube).

cheers,
[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] crash98:
I've tried with meschel artemis touch 2.1 lite with cube and 3.0 lite with cube.

[P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development] shawndh:
I had Meschle's Premium Plus w/o cube and it averaged about 16-17Meg. Now I've got the Touch 3.01 and I get as low as 13Meg but I'm also running MS Voice Command which is a huge memory hog. If I didn't have MSVC I would prob still be at 16-17Meg with the programs I have running. The official WM5 P3300 ROM left about 18-19Meg avail on average.
