Some Common term That You want To Know

Bugs:​

Bugs happen. Our testers are very good at breaking things, but no where near as good as the rest of the Android public. In order to investigate and fix issues, we need the help of the users who are going to report them. The Android OS has many nifty features to help us in this, but only if we can engage the user to assist us.

Logs, Logcat, and the Android Debugging Bridge (ADB):​

Like any other OS, Android has multiple log files that are generated and record the goings-on of the system. As a user, you have two basic ways to view and pull these to send to us. Without the information in the logfiles, there simply is not a whole lot of information to go on.

Log file APKs:​

Team OctOs recommends SysLog from the Android Market. This application will allow you to selectively pick any (or all) of the system logs, compress them into a .ZIP file, and allow you to save, email, move to your Copy/DropBox/Cloud Storage account, etc.

ADB Logcat:​

The Android Debugging Bridge (ADB) is a powerful tool available from Google as part of the Android Software Development Kit (SDK). Used for many things, being able to selectively see, in real-time, what your device is doing cannot be downplayed. While there is more setup involved, if you are doing consistent ROM flashing, you really should invest the time to get setup properly to do it.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions:​

Q: Is this Android 7 (Nougat)?

A: Yes, this is Android 7.1.2

Q: What code is Oct-N based on?

A: This version of Oct-N is based on LineageOS 14.1

Q: Why isn't there XYZ feature?

A: Shoot us a Suggestion if you want to see something added. While we are not going to promise to implement, we will always look into it

Q: But all the others have..

A: ROM developers, build something they want to use. The ROM developer that includes something they won't run implies less than 100% effort to ensure it does work. As a team, we have similar goals and objectives. If XYZ ROM has a feature you want, and we don't include (or don't want to include), feel free to use XYZ ROM, or build your own custom version of Oct-N.

Q: What about root?

A: Root is removed by default (user will be able to flash which ever root zip they want)

Great ROM.... Working Smooth... Thanx for giving update
[General Questions and Answers] Divergent Droid:
I'm fed up with people on this forum. I keep trying to engage people in a discussion, a conversation to explain some things to me and No one seems willing. It's like there are No Rooting gurus that can answer my simple questions. On a forum full of Android developers, I'm very disappointed, I thought i'd get tons of help. If you read this, Please consider staying to have a discussion/conversation with me.

Preface to The Discussion:

I have used both Android and Linux in the past, I know what Super User is, I use it in Zorin 12 Linux and own a rooted (kingroot) android tablet. I am trying to get information on rooting my Figo Atrium phone by trying to understand Rooting better in general. perhaps this discussion will make since to you and together you can help me find a way to root my phone - But I Must have a back and forth or I'll never understand this. - I know there are many exploits to root a phone used by tools like kingroot. I know these exploits are many and varied depending on your phone's CPU architecture, and software and not all root tools with work with my device. . I know the bootloader has to be unlocked and one must have USB Debugging enabled in Developer Options. I know some phone manufacturers make tools that help you root your phone (MTK Droid Tools) So far, none of these tools can root my phone.

Let's Start The Discussion Here:

I was able to not root but my Upgrade my phone from Lollipop to Marshmallow. I did this using SP Flash Tool and these instructions (which were badly translated and which as you can see by the comments in the video, I had to correct due to bad translation) See this video and comments by me to understand. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEIJM2YjNzE - I used SP Flash Tool and a Rom Figo provided. After I figured out the botched instructions, I was able to upgrade my device with no problems.

Question 1: Isn't this essentially the same process that is used for Rooting? It proves my bootloader is unlocked and the phone does have the ability to flash a new Rom. <- Based on That, doesn't it seem to you that my phone would be in fact Rootable?

If you think so, tell me why, if you think Not, tell me why.

Question 2: If you think So, then: Someone suggested to me that using a tool like Magisk or SuperSU may be able to root my device. Does this seem likely to you based on what I've told you so far? No one in the SuperSU sub forum can answer this question.

If you think No, then we'll discuss this more. I'll wait for your replies. Thank you.
[General Questions and Answers] :
Rooting is, simply said, placing a 'su' binary in the system folder. SU means switch user, when you give that command you're instructing Android to give you root user privileage. OEM's don't want that to happen so they won't include it in their ROMs. Tools like supersu are made to copy that 'su' file to the system partition. There are a lot of ways to explain this, I'm just giving you something quick and easy to understand.

Now regarding your questions;

1) Flashing anything requires the bootloader to be unlocked on most phones. BUT MTK phones don't. (Except some HTC phones). SP Flash Tool can flash any partition without needing to unlock. It's dangerous security wise, but this means its also easier to root.

Infact all MTK phones are rootable. So don't worry about that. :)

2) How to root? The best way to root is with supersu. (You can also try magisk if you want to use Android Pay).

You need a custom recovery like TWRP first.

I found one here which is for your same CPU. https://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-recovery-13/

^I am just giving you a link to recovery which uses the same CPU so It may or may not work. PLEASE take a backup of your original recovery before doing anything.

Now download SuperSU zip file from here https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/supersu/download/zip/SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip

Don't open it, just keep it in your sd card.

Flash the recovery using SP Flash Tool (check only the recovery box and select this file). Now unplug the phone and press Volume Up+Power Button to boot into recovery.

Then if it says swipe to allow modifications, swipe.

Now goto Install->Select the Supersu.zip file you downloaded->Swipe and reboot.

That's it! You're rooted!
[General Questions and Answers] Divergent Droid:
Thanks.. again, you've answered things others couldn't. Much appreciated.

You say, " You need a custom recovery like TWRP first.

I found one here which is for your same CPU. https://www.needrom.com/download/twrp-recovery-13/

^I am just giving you a link to recovery which uses the same CPU so It may or may not work. PLEASE take a backup of your original recovery before doing anything."

Lets say Twrp doesn't work. What is this for, just to re-flash your original rom in case twrp fails at making a backup? ( I assume the tool makes your installed rom flashable in case the root doesn't work and you need to revert back to your original system) I have the SP Tool and the Rom for Marshmallow that works with my device from Figo. Can I use that if Twrp fails - or am I not understanding what twrp is used for? Just checking before I start this. Otherwise, I'll try to follow your instructions to the letter and see what happens.
[General Questions and Answers] GeoNez:
Still Looking ?

STILL Looking? IF so, a few thoughts .... It is a nice phone for the price. The newer version eventually coming out looks even nicer, and for now, it is still my backup phone to my Figo Gravity. Discovered Figos when I got totally fed up with BLU phones.

ONE - If you have upgraded your Atrium to Marshmallow, as I did, none of the rooting methods that worked on Lollipop will work, so forget about them.

TWO - Down in Developer Settings you need to make sure OEM unlocking is allowed.

THREE - ASSUMING you have a TWRP build that will work, it is pretty simple. Take the ROM image that FIGO sent you and replace the "recovery.img" file with the TWRP (re-name it recovery.img and save the old one as recovery.old JUST IN CASE) file. It will be much larger than the factory ROM recovery image and that's fine. The scatter table, if you read hex addresses, provides for enough space to do this. Flash ONLY the recovery (TWRP) image, and be sure to DOWNLOAD ONLY with the SP FLASH tool. If uncertain, DO NOT PROCEED. It can be a real pain in the arse to re-do things if you accidentally format or upgrade things you didn't mean to. ASSUMING that worked, you can boot into TWRP by holding down the power / volume buttons (I assume you are familiar with this sequence).

FOUR - it is entirely possible that the next time you boot the thing normally, TWRP will be blown away. Happened to me a few times. There is some setting down in the boot image that causes this and I will have to dig up my notes to see exactly what the heck it was. It required taking apart the boot image - I used Carliv - fixing the one setting, and then re-packing and re-flashing it, BUT, you can ALWAYS keep replacing the TWRP image as needed. Inconvenient, but better than a sharp stick in the eye.

FIVE - when booted into TWRP, you should be able to flash SU, which will give you root, and it should STAY rooted after that unless and until you uninstall SU. FLASHIFY is STRONGLY recommended as a VERY useful app for rooted devices. TWRP, if you are unfamiliar with it, is SO MUCH MORE than just a recovery replacement. Handiest whole device backup there is. Has saved my bacon on several devices through numerous acts of personal stupidity. :crying:

SIX - IF ALL ELSE FAILS, you can ALWAYS revert to the factory image ROM. Just DOWNLOAD ONLY rather than Upgrade and DO NOT Format.

I've read a couple posts where folks say they're running their stock rom but with a permissive kernel. I can't seem to find said kernel for the sm-t280. It appears to only be available for the t285.

Is a permissive kernel available for the t280 and if so, where might I find it?

Thanks!

Hi everyone

I have a 2015 16 Gb Nvidia shield tv rooted on Nougat bin I have been unable to update it after root. Need help cause controller is acting up and I suspect it's related. What should I do?

Try to go back to stock?

Flash the new update?

Please help.

I'm going through the same issue please help someone
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgimorales:
Fixed the issue by flashing 5.2 stock image.

I was able to update after with no problem.

Controller still not acting properly tho.
[Shield Android TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] georgimorales:
Problem with controller was fixed

So I emailed Nvidia about the controller and they responded. I followed thru their directions with a few tweaks.

They requested me to the the following:

1. Fully charge the SHIELD controller.

2. Clear data/cache and force stop SHIELD Controller.

(Go to Settings > Apps > SHIELD Controller > Clear Data, Clear Cache > Force Stop)

3. Reset the controller:

Press and hold Back + Home buttons for 15 - 20 seconds. You can release the buttons once the lights on the controller go off (This I could not do because back and home buttons were still not working)

4. Re-pair the controller and the SHIELD console.

So I followed until step 3 without letting the controller fully charge. Could not reset the controller because back and home buttons were still not working.

By the way, I had to hardwire the controller for No. 2.

I did all this and had some progress. Volume Up and down buttons were working and the mic as well. Still I had to unpair If I needed to put the console in sleep mode. When unpaired the controller would constantly blink (pair mode). I left it all morning and afternoon charging. Came back home and done, controller good as new. Hope this helps someone.

I have tested with several cables and multiple manufacturers and multiple computers and cannot get a USB3.0/3.1 cable to keep a connection with the PC. USB 2.0 works fine.

I called Samsung and they are telling me that they only support the cable that came with the phone, which is a 2.0 cable. So they don't even support the 3.1 standard they advertise. I am about to return the phone over this. I have not found anyone else having this problem, but I have also not heard that anyone is using USB3 successfully either.

I transferred over 7gb of data from a pc to a Note8 (sandisk 400gb Sd card) using a choetech USB c 3.1 gen 2 superspeed cable. The pc has superspeed ports (Alienware Area 51). Did not have any issue the two times ive connected the note 8 to a pc.

I have a type C to 3.1 type A cable from Anker, but have only used it on 3.0 ports on my laptop and desktop, definitely works super fast (even flashing the firmware with Odin - only takes a few seconds for the full package).

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] sanchit9282:
I was planning to buy Anker Powerline Plus USB - C to USB A 3.0 cable. Isn't the cable good enough to fast charge the phone? Doesn't it charge as fast as the regular one (which came in the box) does? How much max current can be drawn using anker cable to charge note 8 and how much time does it takes to fully charge the device with anker cable compared to the original one?

Kindly provide these details, as I am confused whether to buy this cable or not.

TIA..:)

Does your PC actually support USB 3.0+ and are the ports setup correctly? Too many motherboard manufacturers poorly implemented USB 3.0 on their rushed motherboard, and Microsoft had to suffer the long end by providing poorly patched drivers because the boards never had the proper port insulations.

I have a At&t Tilt W/Duttys dualtouch final rom radio version 1.27.11.31 running opera mini 4 On TMOBILE network tried eveything in the book and searched evey forum trying to figure out why my tmobile edge connection says connected and not be. PIE will start by locating, connecting, opening, and finally freezing. Opera mini will start progress and stop half way and freeze. My SMS works fine but my MMS also has a problem it will send a percentage of the file and freeze. After configuring everything manually still nothing I have called tmobile and still no hope all my settings are correct according to forums and tmobile customer support I even tried the lurch2 TmobileUS cab and the MMS Tmobile settings cab. I've also read on the fact the phone is 3g it will not work on tmobile until their release of 3g having to due with a test on their network. If anyone could help me out I would really appreciate it .

[Networking] Mr. Zach:
What i do for my sister's tilt on tmo is use Network Wizard (google it) and install that, then tell it USA then TMO and let it do its thing. afterwards you can uninstall it if you care. i would reccomend changing the MMS settings to 5 attempts and to use T-Mobile Data rather than T-Mobile MMS to connect, that way it doesn't have to establish a new connection, it just downloads.
