[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Petarsson:
Hi,

has anybody tried to install Xposed framework on the 6P with Android 7.0? And if so, does it work?

As 7.0 is still a "light" Nougat-version, if I understand this right, it might be possible. But before I try and have to reset my phone, I dare to ask you for any experience on this. ;)

Thanks for any input on this!

I don't believe rovo89 has updated to 7.0....So many MM ROMs had custom features baked in. I'm sure modules like Gravity were losing traction with users rather quick anyways. I'm not even sure if xposed has active development.

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 PM ----------

As a matter of fact most of the Nougat ROMs currently being maintained warn against using xposed on their ROMs ..

Hi all,

Just after a bit of advice, I'd like to test out the front shooter on the Note4 but unfortunately the 5 rom's or so I've tried all show the can't connect to camera issue, I'd just like a bit of a direction on how to fix the issue possibly?

Many Thanks.

So my hula bumper case is dead it finally cracked up and isn't useful. Unfortunately you can't find them anymore and given the age of this still decent device I can't seem to find a good case ...any recommendations?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flipz77:
If you don't mind a full case, check out the ones from iblason. I got a slick solid black (non-yellowing) tpu and it's sturdy (tested) with good button feedback, not to mention you still have the dimple.

However, the logo above the noise reduction mic is pretty gross, but, on black, duct tape will do.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zstricky:
Amazon has a pretty good selection. I-blason, the different otterbox selections and two different styles from Supcase. I have the Supcase Unicorn Beetle heavy duty case with belt clip. It's basically equivalent to the Otter Box defender, but more fitted to the rounded back. I think it's probably as protective as the Otter Box, but significantly more shapely and form fitting.

From another non-virtual partitioned ROM:

Make sure you have the latest OFFICIAL TWRP installed.

Backup current ROM if desired

Back up EVERYTHING on your internal SD card to your computer (the internal SD card WILL BE ERASED in the next step).

In TWRP, go to Wipe -> Advanced Wipe -> check Internal Storage -> press on "Repair or Change File System" -> press on "Change File System" -> press on "EXT4", and then swipe to start formatting the internal SD card. This can take up to a minute.

Wipe Data, Cache and System.

Copy the newest version of my TWRP recovery to your device and flash it.

After that is finished, go back to the main menu, then go to Reboot and press on Recovery.

Once the device has rebooted back into TWRP recovery, goto mount then uncheck and recheck data.

Copy and flash the new ROM and your GApps package to your device and flash

Reboot system

Connect your phone to your computer and copy back your backed-up internal SD card data to the internal SD card.

Repartitioning is completed. Enjoy your 8GB of additional app storage space.

So, if you haven't heard already, welcome to our unified thread!

Skyrocket users, meet Hercules users. Hercules users, meet Skyrocket users.

You are all welcome here.

Even though us Skyrocket users are better, we will eventually learn how to get used to you inferior Hercules users and maybe (I said MAYBE) we will even start to like you guys. :)

The best part about this is that me and Bryan no longer have to post things twice. Phew.

Notice: To make things easier, when asking for support, especially when related to cell service (unless you are a Herc user in a tunnel), rotation/gyroscope, or battery, please state which device you are using at the top of the post, and which build you are on. Additionally, in terms of cell service, also tell us which carrier and which baseband version you are using.

And logs are nice, but please put them in [hide][/hide] tags so we don't have to scroll through it. You may also attach it as a zipped TXT file (XDA isn't as picky on file sizes of ZIPs as they are on TXT files), or upload it to Pastebin and link it, or something.

So, my post would be like this:

--------------------------------

Also, as soon as I get the SIM slot replacement kit and an extended battery, I will be using my Skyrocket as my daily driver. Mainly because I missed out on the sale on the Moto G4 I was looking at, and I do need the extra money for college books. $30, approximately, total. Hell yeah.

It is all CM14. That is No Gapps, Airplane, WiFi off, screen off, not using it, vs Gapps installed, Airplane on, WiFi on, screen on, and I used it constantly, installing a few apps, too.

Seriously, if you are planning to use this as your daily driver, don't. As soon as I get my repair kit, I am going back to CM13.

You can try flashing the radio, but I suggest beforehand that you backup the EFS partition and make sure you have a copy of UCNJ1 with you.

I made a nandroid backup, and will flash cm14 over it. If I want to restore the backup, do I have to wipe anything? Or do I just restore it from the cm14 menu?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Easy_as_Pi_3.14:
NO.

Factory reset (you can keep internal storage, just not data), wipe system, flash clean.

When going back to CM13, restoring it, I would suggest factory resetting, wiping system, flashing CM13, then restoring. Unless you checked "Boot". Kernels may vary.

/data formatted: F2FS.

External SD card: 16GB SanDisk Class 4, not formatted as internal.

I have not wiped internal storage from CM13, I only did a factory reset (kept /data/media)

It seems like external and internal SD card write access is bugged.

Dev.Macgyver Photo Editor 1.9.3 cannot save to internal or external, permission denied error.

Even with root access on, CM File Manager cannot even view my external SD card.

Terminal as su can ls it, and the built in file browser (AOSP one, not the CM one) can view it fine.

Anyone else having issues with init.d? I can't get any scripts to run. Neither does init-recovery.sh.

Adding a boot script to 3C Toolbox Pro works, though.

Everyone, I was thinking of adding swap to the Advanced Settings app.

It would look like this:

Use old /cache partition as swap

I found out a few ways to tell if you have a good charger.

File manager method

In a root file manager, such as FX with root (you don't actually need root, but it's easier), navigate to

/sys/class/power_supply/battery

Now plug in and view batt_charging_source in a text viewer.

0 = not charging

1 = USB charging (such as plugging it into a PC). It is slow.

2 = Fast charge. :)

6 = Slow charge. :(

You can additionally view the charging rate by looking at batt_current_adc. Divide that number by 10 to get the charge in mA. Divide the mA by 1000 to get it in amps.

The closer to 1000mA or 1 amp is best.

Source

Off-charging method

You can't get the charging rate this way, but it is really simple.

Unplug the phone.

Turn the phone off.

Plug it in.

If it goes into off-charging mode (battery screen), good (or you're plugging it into a computer)

If it turns on completely, it is a bad charger.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Easy_as_Pi_3.14:
If you are wondering about the above post, you can do that on any virtually repartitioned ROM.

What I did was put swap on the unused partition that used to be /cache. That expands virtual RAM by 300MB. Nothing wrong with more RAM. However, this can shorten how long your phone lasts.

Flash memory, what the phone's internal storage (all partitions) and your SD card are made of, aren't permanent. The more they have data written to, the shorter they last. As in the internal storage just dies and your phone doesn't work.

Most likely, you won't have an issue, but that chance still exists.

If you want to risk it, CAREFULLY follow these directions. The last thing you want when you are doing this is to make a typo. Seriously.

Creating the swap partition (You may want to run these in ADB shell if you are worried):

su
mkswap /dev/block/mmcblk0p26

Now, download 3C Toolbox, grant it root, and find "Scripting editor", under "Tools".

Hit the "+". Name the script "swap" and type in the second box:

#!/system/bin/sh

swapon /dev/block/mmcblk0p26

Hit the save icon and press back. Now, in that list, press the button that looks like ? (but 1 arrow) and it should say "Script added to boot sequence" on the bottom of the screen.

Reboot and enjoy your new swap.

To turn this off, go back to that Scripting editor and press the ? again so it says "Script removed from boot sequence." And reboot.

If you ever plan on going to a non repartitioned ROM, do the same as the first step, but instead of mkswap, use make_ext4fs.

Non-virtually repartitioned recoveries might not boot if you don't do this. But idk why you would.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jansenw95:
Same with me. Deleted the extra build.prop lines, because Ok Google wasn't working, and I didn't use asssistant all the much anyways. Is there a way to check for the actual battery capacity? All the apps that I use show that it is 1850 mah, but my extended battery was advertised as 3150 mah.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Easy_as_Pi_3.14:
No. If you have a laptop, they have smart chips that tell the model number, factory max capacity, current capacity, current max capacity (wear and tear), %health, temp, (dis)charging rate, all sorts of stuff.

Android batteries report percentage, temperature (usually), and if you're lucky, NFC. A fancy, flattened, rechargeable AA battery. That you can't easily replace.

The battery capacity is hardcoded, and Android is an optimist—your battery health is always "Good". It doesn't matter.

It's basically an Adobe Photoshop vs Microsoft Paint kind of thing. Yeah, you can do some cool things in MSPaint, but Photoshop laughs in its face.

Fun fact: Shady third party manufacturers can actually get away with misleading labeling because Android can't tell the difference between 1850mAh, πmAh, and 10000000mAh. The placebo effect gets them $$$.

So, you know those "slim" batteries that have the exact same dimensions as the stock battery, but are labeled as double capacity that you can get for either $50 or $5?

[YouTube]4F4qzPbcFiA[/YouTube]​

Most batteries are fine, but you just need to use your judgement. Read the reviews, and avoid cheap stuff from China. They have different regulations.

Ooooooh, sorry, that sucks. We all fall for those type of "deals" at least once. That's why they do that.

At least you know now (and anyone else on this thread), so it won't happen again.

The main thing to remember is "they call it a bigger battery for a reason".

But hey, at least you didn't pay an exuberant amount of money for it.

It is likely an 1850mAh or a 2100 max. But who knows? Ether way, make sure you condition it first.

But, even if it is a repackaged stock battery, now you have two batteries.

If your phone is at 100% in the evening, turn it off, swap batteries with which ever one lasts the shortest, charge it overnight, and in the morning, switch to the good one and put it in your wallet/backpack/glove box/whatever.

Having a laptop/charger pack is nice, but few things are as awesome as being able to just put in a fresh one. Fastest way to get to 100% on the go, guaranteed. ?

Unfortunately, I have a very tight and protective case on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Easy_as_Pi_3.14:
That's how they get people. Everybody wants more battery life, but they also want a case. And the cases made for the extended batteries are expensive and don't have any designs on them, and they aren't waterproof.

I 100% understand your reasoning in your purchase.

But, keeping an extra battery in an accessible but safe place is still a good idea in case of an emergency. Example:

In the middle of the night on an empty road in the winter, your car stalls out.

Inconveniently, for the sake of plot, your car's battery AND your phone's battery are completely dead at the same time.

You remember that extra battery you put in your glove box.

I would definitely take that annoying case off to call AAA, a tow truck or something/someone…

…

…

…

…Well, if I ever was in that situation. Let's just say that I am trying to preserve the environment, NOT that I'm afraid of driving! ??

Anyways, I hope that you can make use of it somehow.
