[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terrastormx:
Hi All,

I did a bit of searching and I haven't come across anyone in my situation, but I'm sure it's happened before. I dusted my nexus 7 (2012) wifi model off that I haven't used in a couple years and I was reading up on re-flashing stock and un-rooting. I'd used the NRT previously so I went back to that. I plugged the tablet into one of my USB3 slots and ran through the manual driver installation. Tested ADB and Fastboot and they both functioned.

I didn't care for retaining any data, I just wanted to upgrade to the newest from 4.2.1 which the tablet was running. When running the 'flash stock + unroot' to version 5.1.1 through the NRT, it ran into an error after wiping the partitions whereas it seemed to be an issue with USB3. The specific error:

"data transfer failure (too many open files in system)"

At this point it had wiped the device, but was unable to load anything back on. After looking into the issue, it appears that it was a result of having the device plugged into USB3... I've since plugged the device into USB2, however, I'm unable to get the drivers to recognize in Windows 8.1... I uninstalled the unrecognized device drivers for the USB2 device, rebooted, and attempted a clean install of both the default Google and Universal drivers (in separate install attempts). Neither of which appear to allow NRT to provide ADB access. The manual installation method was what I used for the USB3 ports, but AFAIK the ADB portion requires you to plug the device in with USB debugging enabled and install the drivers on that device. Since I can't load into anything other than the bootloader, I don't believe I can perform this step.

Am I SOL or is there potentially something I can do to breathe life back into this device? Any recommendations would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Nate

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WALIDSNAKE:
I need help from you guys, I have a D855 and it was working fine until one day i when i turned the screen off and turned it back on a while after i didn't see the wifi icon on the status bar for a second, then it appeared, i knew that the wifi was turned off, i tried to turn the screen off and send myself some messages on messenger and viber but i didn't get them until i turned the screan on again, same goes for all notifications that need wifi.....sometimes it stays on for 5 min, sometimes longer, but it will eventually turn off randomly.

i have the wifi setting to keep it always on when screen is off (in advanced wifi settings) , i have tried every possible solution i found online but not luck, I've flashed kdz file and restored the phone, I've flashed other roms and other kernels but no luck...

i don't know how to solve this, if anybody can help i would really appreciate it.
[General Questions and Answers] demonseedxp:
Hi guys,

I'm having the strangest issue that is currently effecting two of my devices.

One is an htc Glacier and the other a htc OneV

Both devices are running KitKat 4.4 and both are unofficial ports of the carbon rom by cyanogen.

Now to my problem, and as the title reads, it's to do with my login pages.

All of my apps and the OS also have a blacked out vale over sign-in pages.

The page it's self is properly loaded, but I cant see most of it, an example is the outlook app, on it's login page, I can see the top blue header saying to add this "type" account, but beneath that is complete black. If I tap around the screen I can randomly access a dialog box that opens the keyboard, but I still don't actually know what I clicked or what is typed.

Making it almost impossible to sign-in to anything.

The strange part is it came out of the blue, to both devices. Nether started out this way, but now both have it.

In my attempts to figure this out I completely crashed the OS of the Glacier to the point of not booting, so in frustration I wiped all the partitions and reflashed the rom and upon Booting into the OS for the first time, to my surprise, the setup wizard had a blacked out login page :eek:

I've googled this every way I can think of and haven't pulled a single useful result, so by now I'm totally and completely dumbfounded and have accepted I cant fix this on my own, so here I sit explaining this to you guys, hoping someone higher up the ladder of knowledge then my self can intervene before I go crazy!

Thanks in advance!
[General Questions and Answers] demonseedxp:
I have to admit, it's a tad alarming nobody has come forward with even an idea of what happened to my devices. starting to be really concerned I cant make it go away.

I realised way after I posted this question that I put it in the wrong section, could that be why I'm not finding the help I'm looking for?

If so could a Mod please move the thread, I hate creating dups in a forum.
[General Questions and Answers] demonseedxp:
I suppose by this point help is never coming so I'm throwing in the towel and starting from scratch on both devices.

It was without a doubt something I did that caused my issues. I suspect probably one of the sys apps I removed was being leveraged to display those pages, but I cant figure out which one it was.

Since the standard wipe reflash didnt fix it last time, I'm hoping that a full wipe of the system partition and remaining partitions then reflashing the os will restore what I so quickly destroyed.

Lots learned because of my own stupidity, mainly, dont be stupid, stupid.

Thanks.... oh wait, for nothing... see ya on my next blunder

I am trying to put twrp on my tablet so I can install cyanogenmod but I am running into problems.

Device: sgp311 on android 5.1.1 and bootloader is unlocked.

1. I open cmd terminal from the folder that contains the latest twrp img.

2. I boot into fastboot mode by the cmd command "adb reboot bootloader"

3. I use the command " fastboot flash boot twrp.img" and it's successful (had an image but cant link it)

4. I use the command "fastboot reboot" and nothing my device stays blank, nothing appears on screen even after holding the power and volume up buttons to do a regular reset and hard reset. When I flash android 5.1.1 back on to my device all my data is still there.

I am also trying to use flashtool to revert too android kitkat but after flashing the firmware and booting up it just stays in a bootloop at the sony logo.

Anyone have any suggestions on what to do?
[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rootk1t:
you're doing it right in general, but there are some issues, though.

Sony devices, like your SGP311 don't have recovery[*] partition, like nexus or other ones.

On Sony, you need to flash kernel with the integrated recovery.

On step 3, you're flashing presumably recovery image (without kernel) to boot partition. As it is not kernel, device is is not booting, which is expectable.

So you need to flash this with CM13 kernel + CM recovery. After flashing reboot device, press VOL- to enter recovery, make necessary wipes, and install CM13 Rom zip.

P.S: With Flashtool fastboot mode, flashing is done easier and faster.

Thank you, I flashed cyanogenmod recovery with adb commands and restarted it and it worked, I now have cyanogenmod on my tablet and it looks and feels way better than the stock rom.

As BrickedXperia, I am trying to put twrp on my tablet so I can install cyanogenmod but I am running into problems.

Device: sgp321 on android 5.1.1 and bootloader is unlocked.

No root (must I?)

1. I open cmd terminal from the platform-tools folder that contains the latest twrp img.

2. I boot into fastboot mode by the cmd command "adb reboot bootloader"

3. I use the command " fastboot flash boot twrp.img" but here it fails and gives an error.

I see from Rootk1t's reply that you have to do something with kernel. Would someone care to elaborate a bit? I am new to this stuff and it's not straight forward despite all the guides around. I would appreciate any help a lot.

[Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Svenni84:
Something like

if it says not allowed, check that bootloader state is really unlocked.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chrisd1a1:
Hi Folks, you are going to have to bear with a non-programmer, my question is with regard to album art and scrolling on WM. there are loads of threads on xda trying to emmulate the 'Apple' style scrolling media selector.

As most players do the same thing, (ie play music and video) creaing the scroll would seem to be a seperate issue. is there a plugin that allows thumnails to be visible on WM and combine this with touch control to allow the existing player to select and play the track/album/video?

this would give the element of selecting via the pics without the need to create a completely new player?

cheers for looking and would hope one of you folks could run with this idea

Chris
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] littld:
I agree completely. I just don't want a new player - wmp is fine for me and works well with Voice Command. I like the way it does album art and I think it syncs well with the desktop.

What we need is just something to launch the album or track in media player. The Library option in wmp needs fingers that are much smaller than mine!

The iContact application was perfect - a good scroller to find what you want and then go to the normal app.

Ideally it should look a bit like audio manager or the iphone-style.

Any programmers want to take this on?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] salahnajm:
temporary solution...

well i'm not a developper... me too I agree that windows media player is an excellent software as it also plays videos and mp4's which are also part of my music album... I've done a few things to make it seem like an iphone and more practical:

1. downloaded PlaylistMgr 0.6.2.1 (freeware), use it to create a playlist or edit it on my ppc. And i use the playlist as a shortcut on my today screen (i have spb4), this way it launches the play list directly and not have to select my music everytime. This includes all my music and videos

2. iphone skin for wmp from http://browse.deviantart.com/customization/skins/media/wmp/wmpppc/?order=9&alltime=yes

3. I didnt know how to increase the playlist font, because i agree its too small so i increased the system font. Now most fonts (not all) are bigger, which has some advantages and disadvantages in other software (I used tweaks for that)

4. Use ftouchflo which allows me to scroll in the playlist

if any ideas let me know

so will this stock rom make the thing easier to start the MM porting ? since this rom is made for the same soc as the note 3 exynos ?

It sounds nasty but it was a guy's job to start porting note 4[4.4.4], s6 edge[5.0.1], note 5[5.1.1], s7 edge[6.0.1] and now note 7[6.0.1] firmwares for n9005. So thanks to him.

And because there are many more talented developers here we have more choices in mods and base. Note 3 n9005 definitely the best in development. I went to note 4 & 5. The development isn't as great as note 3.

So it isn't the hardware. As my answer earlier, it depends to the developer who owns the device.

Hi, my sister's Moto G has a problem that every ~15 days all the system is wiped and it goes into bootloop. I always reflashed it normally through fastboot and recovery, but now I can't do it anymore.

Its battery is completely dead and it's stuck at 0% while charging, I tried many chargers (including the ones that came with it).

-I can boot it to fastboot, but it isn't recognized by my PC (reinstalled drivers, tried many usb ports and so on...) and it shows the battery always as LOW (even tho it have been for ~12hours charging)

-I can "boot" it to TWRP, but it goes stuck at the splash screen

-wipe cache (still on bootloop)

-tried to sideload stock rom through adb: it didn't allow me (not even load the file)

-flash stock rom with sp flash tool, it seemed to work but NO: at this point was still on bootloop but when i enter to the recovery it said no command + screen was doing a strange blinking while "booting":

original recovery menu changed, including volume navigation. (at first I could go up and down with volume buttons and select with power button, now a navigate with volume down button and select with volume up, power button appears/disappears recovery menu).

-tried again sideload stock rom thru adb, it loaded and reached 100%, and the phone keeps aborting installation.

-tried to install CWM thru adb (there's no TWRP for this phone or any BLU phone), adb still works but when I tried to get on fastboot mode it says error: closed (adb reboot bootloader command)... (I think I should've done this at first place, but didn't know, so...)...

There are already many tutorials and tips for editing Android XML files. However everything I tried resulted in choppy System Animations in Stock Motorola ROMs. It's most obvious in drop-down menu animations. This information is based on working with Android 6.0 Stock, however should apply to all previous versions of Android. Also this tutorial may be applicable to other Motorola phones - different generations of Moto E / G - Moto X / Z etc.

Requirements:

(*) Latest Apktool (v2.2.0 confirmed working)

(*) 7zip or alternative capable of exploring apk contents

(*) Notepad++ (if using Windows)

(*) Java 7 (JRE 1.7) or newer​

Sections:

(i) XML files in /res/xml (below)

(ii) XML files in /res/values (post #2)​

(i) XML files in /res/xml

Example #1: framework-res.apk

Step 1 - Install framework-res

apktool if framework-res.apk​

Step 2 - Decompile framework-res

apktool d framework-res.apk​

<edit files in /res/xml with Notepad++>

Step 3 - Build new framework-res.apk

apktool b framework-res​

Go to /framework-res/dist and find the new modified apk. DO NOT PUT THIS APK IN YOUR ROM OR ON YOUR PHONE.

Instead, you now need to extract (using 7zip) from this new apk - the modified file(s) in /res/xml - to a folder. These xml files will be encoded so cannot be viewed in Notepad++.

Next open the original (unmodified) framework-res.apk with 7zip and browse to /res/xml. Delete the files you want to replace. You can now drag and drop the modified xml files into the original apk and you are done.

Note: You may need to cleanly install the ROM on your phone with the modified 'original' framework-res.apk already included.

The above instructions should apply when editing the /res/xml/ files of any system apk, however always begin with Step 1.
[Moto G General] lost101:
(ii) XML files in /res/values (These files when encoded are contained within resources.arsc)
