Question about kernel

Hello,

I'm building an AOSP 2.3.7 for our device.
I've a question beceause I don't want to brick my device !

I've used this repository : https://github.com/hafidzduddin/andr...samsung_codina
I built my ROM with the "kernel" zImage.

I want to test it, so I flashed only ROM but with stock kernel it freezes at SGA2 GT-I8160.

How can I be sure if the boot.img will work ? If it doesn't work, can i access again to download mode ?

Thanks you.

[Question] Microsoft Remote Desktop on Android 4.4.4

I'm thinking about resurrecting my wifi tablet as a remote desktop client. I want the OS to be snappy and have good battery life, so I'm thinking on flashing 4.4.4 unless I'm wrong.

My main question is if the latest Microsoft Remote Desktop would run on Android 4.4.4. I'd rather not go through the entire flashing process if it won't work in the end anyway.

The Play Store page isn't very specific as it just says requirements vary on each device. It obviously runs fine on the latest Android 6 on my Nexus 6P, but I want a larger screen.

A question

Does anybody know if there are any ways to root a ZTE Grand X Max 2? I have tried KingoRoot apk and PC, and a few other rooting ways but non of them seem to work. If anybody has a working way to root it, please say how. I am running 6.0.1 Marshmellow.

Question About Samsung Pay And Root

I know that rooting causes samsung pay to quit working. My question is that if
i decide to return back to stock using odin, W/O knox tripped, will samsung pay

S7 edge possible defect question

I just got my second silver s7 edge since my first one had a horrible battery life.

After getting this one and looking in bright light where the phone shines, I notice at the top of the phone under the glass on the edge of the silver foil stuff, it has a wrinkled look across the whole top.

I don't notice it on the bottom which seems to be the same exact dimensions, and also don't notice it on the back.

I tried to take a picture but the picture is very hard to pick up on camera and looks a lot worse in person.

I want to make sure this is normal or not because I didn't remember seeing it on my other s7 edge

Thanks

Moto X Root Question

Hello, I have a question about rooting my Moto X v5.1 (build LPAS23.12-39.7-1). See, it was bought from Verizon, but it is unlocked, so I switched to T-Mobile, not sure if i'm suppose to follow the root tutorial for Verizon models still. I entered the recovery mode and saw that the bootloader is indeed locked. Sorry i'm really new at this and pretty confused, if you need any more info about my phone please ask and I will provide. Also, if you have a tutorial link that would be great as well, seen too many that have different steps than each other and don't want to brick my device. Thanks a lot!

Question: screen overlay detected... How do I fix it?

Hi,

I am trying to use Waze on my phone, but the app won't open as it keeps saying screen overlay detected. I have gone into my settings and turned off the overlay for all the apps apart from the system apps. But it is still not working.

I have tried searching on Google, and don't have any of the apps installed like twilight, luxe or Facebook which are supposed to be causing the problem.

Any other suggestions on how to fix it?

Cheers

Lg g3 at&t factory unlocked firmware update question

Hey guys, I recently purchased an LG G3 AT&T Factory unlocked so other network carriers can be used. But when I click software update it already says I'm updated (CURRENTLY RUNNING LOLLIPOP 5.0.1) so I assume you need to have an AT&T sim card to update your software.
Is there like any way to bypass that so I can update my phone to android 6.0? If so how? and would I need to have it factory unlocked again?
I'm new to this, so detailed explanation would be deeply appreciated!

Cheers!

Quick question

What happens if I root my device running stock ROM and then I update with OTA update? Do I lose root? Does it applies to Xposed and its modules?

Question about some sound mod for 6.0.1 M4 Aqua

Hello , i want to ask something , when the "v3 sound mod" have been working perfectly on m4 device , since update to 6.0.1 android , the mobile phone is now very silent , any clues or mods to make phone on 6.0.1 much louder ? like soundmod v3 ?

OTA Update and V10 camera question.

Wanting to goo ahead and update. But why pretty much having to lose all my data anyway to restore root street update I am wondering something else. As it is the device has a lot of bloatware and I am entertaining just installing a stock Android ROM. My question is though,: I know on a custom ROM you can't use the stock LG camera due to it lacking the correct certificates or something similar. However will a stock Android ROM have those and allow me to just aside load the camera as a system app?

If not something else I am curious about: had anyone had success changing camera shortcut volume key on the G4 to another app and have it unlock the screen properly like the stock camera? Closest I have seen is the G4tweaksbox but after launching you still have to unlock the phone which defeats the purpose all together.

Question about S7 edge video recording FPS

Hi all,

I have been tinkering with filming on my S7 edge recently and discovered some discrepancies regarding the S7 edge video recording fps.

I shot 3 FHD (standard/30fps) video and 3 FHD (60fps) and played back on my macbook pro via Quicktime.

I noticed that for the 3 FHD (standard/30fps) videos, the frame rates displayed on Quicktime movie inspector are 23.96fps, 23.97fps and 24fps instead of 30fps.

Then i checked the 3 FHD (60fps) videos. The frame rates displayed on Quicktime movie inspector are 59.96fps, 59.97fps and 60.07fps instead of 60fps.

I compared the results to the videos shot at 24fps using my Canon 70D. 3 videos @ 24fps consistently showed frame rate of 23.98fps on Quicktime movie inspector.

So i am wondering, why does the video recording fps of S7 vary by so much? Is it software or hardware issue?

Thank you all.

Question before buy

Hello, i have a couple of questions and need help to decide if i should buy the LG G3 855 (BR edition) vs the Moto X Play.
Well, first off, independent of the phone that i'll get, i'll install TWRP and CM13, i can't have a phone without it.
So, is the G3 easy to unlock the bootloader (specially this version that i would get)?

Also, it's a 16gb of storage and 2gb of RAM (same as the Moto X play), but i have a huge question.
Is the SD 801 better them the 615 from the Moto X play?
How does CM13 run on that chipset too?

And last but not least... how is android dev going to this device, will it "die soon", or it's at full steam still?

Thanks :)

[Question] Where can I get an old Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Firmware?

Hello. First, I'm sorry to post this kind of thread right after registering as a new member.
My mother has an old Korean Galaxy Tab 10.1 (SHW-M380W) and it is not functioning at all for some reason.
Therefore, I tried to factory reset it, but apparently its recovery mode was not working either. So I decided to get a stock firmware of SHW-M380W and flash it with Odin v.1.85.
However, because the model is too old (it's been 5 years since its release), all the links for the download that I found seem to be expired.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1360588

This thread didn't help a lot as the download links there don't work now. Also, I tried to search on Korean websites, but sadly their download links were all expired too.
Is there anyone who still has a stock firmware of Korean Galaxy Tab 10.1 SHW-M380W? It doesn't really have to be stock - I'd be happy as long as it works on my mother's tablet.

Again, sorry for posting this kind of thread, and thanks in advance.

Question about bootloaders

Hey, I'm thinking about getting this phone, but could use some clarification. Could I in some way achieve unlocked bootloaders starting with the latest version? As in, if I were to buy the phone now, would I have any chance of being locked out of installing a custom recovery and rom? I'm coming from a galaxy s4 and am kind of paranoid because of how the bootloaders are impossible to unlock past a certain firmware.
Thanks in advance, sorry if it's a dumb question
