[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anon/droid:
Good to know that these two commands is all what's needed. I was just able to successfully execute them on a mtk-su rooted Fire HD 10 "suez" running 5.6.4.0.

Just out of curiosity,

1. Does anybody know what "otter" and "oobe" are supposed to mean, i.e. what com.amazon.kindle.otter.oobe.forced.ota is supposed to do?

2. Some people also recommend to get rid of com.amazon.device.software.ota.override — what does this do?

3. Why do some people also remove com.amazon.settings.systemupdates — this is helpful for checking the current OS version, right?

Thank you very much for all your work [MENTION=8165603]DragonFire1024[/MENTION]!
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DragonFire1024:
The first and second one are applications that grabbed OTA updates sent by Amazon to update the system of your device.vI would assume if one application shuts down the other one takes over. But like most things you need one to work in order for the other to work. If you simply disabled the second one no OTA updates will be sent to your device that will upgrade or change Amazon system like giving you a new version of fire OS.

Removing the third one just disables your ability to tap on the system updates page in the settings application. it will not actually stop any update from taking place on the device if it's disabled. It just removes your ability to get anywhere near the update section or your ability to visually see what's going on there.

FIXED! Read below for details.

So i've been messing with my mogul for nearly 4 hours now trying to convert it to dcd's rom..and i've flashed it twice now and after it reboots from being 100% loaded it just sticks on the HTC black screen..I've read and read and searched and searched and cannot find a definite answer. Can anyone help?!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] rmancl:
basics?

did you load the radio rom?

did you load the unlocker?

you may need to restart the phone to the boot loader and resend the rom

(press and hold camera and power and push reset button)
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] tbobaggins:
I did TRY and reload the radio and unlocker..now im stuck at the black htc screen where it says no radio though. bleh. i can't even get it back up and running. what do i do?

edit:

I'm at the multi color screen..ive tried running the unlocker RUU and then running dcd's ruu and it doesn't work..and the radio RUU does not run at this screen...I can't get the phone back to a working status! Argghhhh. It wont let me run the relocker unless im in activesync...but i can't be recognized in activesync unless the phone is up and functional..so..? how do i relock it to put hte stock rom on to try and unlock again?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jkrolcz:
I am kinda stuck in the same spot, but mine is is the verizon logo screen, i tryed doing the power,camera and hte reset button but its till stuck, i tryed the relocker but i need to be in active sync

any help?
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] tbobaggins:
what i dont get is..i flashed it with the unlocker, then the rom then the radio...isn't RUU just overwriting each one or something? it doesn't make sense to me. and all i can do is run RUU..i did the rom, then the radio and it was stuck in the bootloader so i used the exitbl and got out of it but then it just went back to going to the HTC black screen saying no radio. ..i'm gonna try and flash the rom from a sd card next..we'll see what happens..
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] DodgeV83:
This just happened to me after flashing the ROM but not the RADIO yet. Flashing the Radio fixed the problem.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] tbobaggins:
I've flashed the radio..then its stuck in the BL and i use the program to get me outta it then it just keeps saying i have no radio! what the hell..this sucks. i'm in the worst possible situation to have to buy a new phone
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] bakntyme:
There are three parts to the "operating system" of your phone.

1. Bootloader (also called locker, unlocker, re-locker, SPL)

2. Radio

3. ROM

The three components are saved in discrete portions of the device's memory. Flashing one does not overwrite the others. All three must be compatible for the phone to operate properly. If you stop the upgrade process recommended by the ROM compiler prior to completion, your phone may not operate properly. If you flash the "leaked" 3.16 ROM package, it contains all three components.

To use the 3.16 stock OEM ROM, or a custom ROM based on the stock OEM 3.16 ROM, you must have a level 3.xx radio and a level 2.xx bootloader. The current implementations of those are the 3.27 radio and either the stock bootloader distributed with the "leaked" 3.16 ROM package, or the Olipro 2.40 unlocker.

If you are running a level 2.xx stock OEM ROM, or a custom ROM based on a stock 2.xx OEM ROM, you must have a level 1.xx bootloader and a level 1.xx radio.

Custom ROMs are not always named using the OEM convention, so you must research the custom ROM to determine whether it is based on a level 2.xx or 3.xx stock OEM ROM.

I hope this helps all of you get your phones back up and running.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] tbobaggins:
FIXXXED!

So heres the best description I can give of what was going wrong for me..Its my first time trying flash to a different rom..and well it didn't go so well. First, I used the titan unlocker, then installed the radio (not sure which one) and then some form of the newer dcd rom and i was getting stuck on the black HTC smart mobility splash screen where it said "no radio". I had to have messed around for over 5 hours today at college trying to figure it out by doing different arrangements what order i installed the radio and unlocker and rom in. I couldn't get it to connect with activesync so i couldn't use the titanunlocker.exe..all i was going off of was RUU's. Im not sure whether or not what OS I was using effected it..I was playing in Vista earlier today but had done the correct steps to install the drivers, and now this last time i did it on XP. This last time I ran the 3.27 radio RUU as found.. here ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=362563 )...Theeen I ran this form of the newer sprint ROM. (I'm pretty sure they say it comes with a included in this RUU, but i'm just stating exactly what I did) the .651 rom can be found.. HERE ( http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=16806 ) He had a error when packing or something so you have to manually rename it to .exe because it was missing a e..I did this within winrar before extracting..ran that and about 10 minutes later it booted up and i've got service. I'm not going to promise that this is 100% functional all i'm saying is im out of that horrid black HTC screen where I can now go on to try and get the correct rom i wanted. Hope this helps..may be a bit confusing and probably did things wrong but this was my first time doing it all.

How can I update my android kitkat 5.1.1 into latest version of android. Pls help with this issue
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] klev2687:
Hi All, I have a Note 8 model N950F. Turns out that i cannot earn rewards because of the model version. I won this phone through a raffle and requested an unlocked version. Unfortunately it turned out to be a UAE model. Is there any way that i can get rewards to work? I tried an older version of SPay and it worked for a while until i couldnt use it without going through the update, which removed the rewards again.

If i can get to rewards to work without a reflash that would be great? Else can some one help me with reflash to US version unlocked?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Welo18:
Did Samsung pay works fine on note 8 international version before the update? Because I am about to buy Korean version but I am afraid SP won't work. BUT if it will work if I flash USA SP that's fine with me and everytime will ask me to update then I will flash the latest APK SP to avoid the wrong update. So confirm that to me please!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] klev2687:
Im not sure about the Korean version, but SPay was working for me just that I cant accumulate rewards. I think that is US device thing. SPay app is not setup by location, the device is. South Korea model will support SPay but without rewards again. How to make rewards work, on an international device, for US transactions is my question here.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Welo18:
Does Samsung pay and rewards works with older version of SP? Or just Samsung pay is only work?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] klev2687:
SPay works, and rewards was working with an older app, thats how i was using it. but today there was an update that didnt allow me to use SPay till i updated it and i lost rewards feature.

I dont mean to be rude, but the thread is going off topic, please create a new one for your issue
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Welo18:
That's good so you can download the latest APK update and it will work
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] klev2687:
only SPay will work, you wont collect rewards

You again...lol. Thanks for the reply.

Anyway to make SPay rewards work?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Kalm_Traveler:
If I am mistaken please correct me so I'm not spreading false info here, but as I understand there are 2 problems with this: problem 1 is that the Korean version of the app won't let you use non-Korean cards or carriers, and problem 2 is that if you get the USA version of the app installed either A) it still won't work because the device is still region-set to Korea, and/or B) if you rooted to be able to change the settings and Google Play Store etc to USA this trips Knox which I believe renders Samsung pay useless on the device forever.

The only other-region fix for Samsung pay I've seen mentioned is that supposedly if you have a 950F unrooted you can use Odin to flash official 950F Australian firmware, and that version will accept USA credit cards. I do not have an F variant though so I can't personally vouch for that workaround, and my N is very much knox tripped.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] klev2687:
So SPay works on my phone. Mine is UAE. It's just that all my promotions are UAE based even though I'm using in US and I receive no reward points. Any fix for that?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] jadaress1:
Can someone answer this question, he just wants rewards working again, seems the thread is going off topic from the original question.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers] Haansin:
I had the same issue and here's what I did

I had the same issue and complaint about the samsung pay.

I bought the dual sim variant N950F/DS(UAE firmware originally), and I knew the samsung pay won't be fully working in the US.

I tried a couple of things and finally working well even rewards.

1) Change firmware to AUS/UK. Otherwise, some debit/credit cards are not working.

The UAE firmware, for example, didn't work with AMEX, but Visa and Master were working.

2) Install Samsung pay and Samsung pay framework manually.

Download the latest APK and install it before executing/installing samsung pay.

Don't install it from the app market place(galaxy store or google play store).

Also, don't forget to turn the auto-update off from them.

3) If the Samsung pay updated, then install the latest version manually again.

I did this and rewards and deals are working well.

Only the 'Home' tab is not working.

I've tested it and realized that screen mirroring to a smart TV or fire stick or Xbox One Cia AirServer isn't working properly in Validus. It starts mirroring, begins flickering, then completely reboots the phone. To be honest, it did the same thing in the stock Moto ROM, too. Motorola is doing something wrong. Screen mirroring even works on my $100 Amazon fire tablet.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] qu1nn:
Hello

i try to update yearly, and I tend to set it and forget it.

I am still using Samsung S4 sprint (jfltespr) with Cyanogenmod 13 (android 6) and I would like to update: some as there is some funk with receiving MMS messages and I would like to get some of the security updates to harden a bit.

Ideally I would have liked to go to lineageOS, but there is no maintainer. I think that I have seen some forks (but not quite sure)

I have been leaning toward Vanir... seems to have a following and there is activity.

I have backed up the existing setup by rebooting into recovery (clockworkmod recovery v6.0.4.7);

I noticed that once I rebooted that when I use a file manger to navigate to /sdcard/clockworkmod/ the folder is empty.

However, when I reboot into clockworkmod recovery and I select to install a zip from sdcard/clockworkmod/ the backup folder shows with a file to install (with the filename as the date I performed the backup).

why cant I view the file in a file manager such as solid explorer?

The only thing that I can think of, which is different from any time in the past, is that I selected for android 6 to treat the sd card as internal storage.

Will this affect any processes if I wanted to install a new ROM?

Kinda Stumped on exactly how to proceed.

the data that I would like to keep could be archived to my nextcloud server.

Any suggestions would be great.

Thank you for your time
