I've been monitoring this thread for a while, and since it's been 2.5 months since last update, I had wondered the same thing as the other poster had, whether LnOS on E4(Qual) had gone zombie. I went and checked on squid2's forum posting, and saw that he's still active. But he's also...

Would you mind doing the same for the retail (XT1768) variant? Flashing back to stock didn't help in my case. I got the same "status 7" error as another person here. I looked at the update's updater-script, but not being conversant with the particular script language I didn't want to take the...

amarc78, Sorry to see you pulling up stakes. I just want to say that a similar event happened to me here a while back, and is why I'm no longer active on XDA. The mod deleted my posts, not because they're against XDA rules, but because the other guy reported them as defamatory to his...

amarc78, sorry for the late response. I flashed the Perry_retail_7.1.1_NPQ26.69-41_cid50 ROM (from https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto%20E4/Stock/) onto my XT1768 E4, and took a Nandroid after first boot. I hope that suffices. File size is 984MB. Let me know your upload link...

Amarc, unfortunately my E4 is no longer "virgin," with MagiskSU installed along with some other bits. Regardless, wouldn't it work to debloat/optimize ROMs from the depo? https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/Moto%20E4/Stock

Thanks to amarc78 for the work. Debloated stock ROMs are best for CDMA carriers like Sprint & VZW. I'm hoping one for the unlocked retail variant (XT1768) will make its way soon. Looking forward to see the list expands.

First, thanks to Silesh for the great ROM. Second, I've just tried the hotspot at 5GHz, and it seems to stay at 2.4GHz, ch 6. Can anyone confirm that hotspot mode actually works at 5GHz on their G4+ (XT1644)?

>Following the update to the LN newest build ovation-ota-NOF26W.170226 my HD+ started to have intermittent but frequent problem connecting to WiFi I recall having this problem with the Jan build, but not the Feb build. It is more sluggish coming out of sleep. Display rotation takes about half a...

>Reading about the various issues with ROMs beyond KitKat is sort of disheartening Not sure why you're disappointed, as the Nook (HD and HD+) has far outlived most of its peers. It's like criticizing a dog that can't sing well, when we should celebrate the wonder that it can sing at all. I'd...

>We have no microphone (right?) It does have a mic, hence my decision to go to nano, which entails REPIT. It's a big deal to be able to say words vs having to type them out. Moreover, I wanted to get rid of the deadweight factory ROM and reclaim the space anyway. Result: More space, more...

NE0HP: I flashed the 3.1.0. The new version works with REPIT. jernyx: Thanks for the info, which I've verified. It simplies the process a bit. I've updated the guide above.

Thanks for the corrections. I edited as needed. However, I'm sticking with twrp 3.0.1 as that's the version available in amaces' folder, aside from 3.0.3. Hopefully, amaces will still look in at this thread at some point and correct some of the obvious bugs/deficiencies mentioned here and...

I'm hoping the below will help somebody. I wanted to enlarge /system partition to accommodate a larger gapps, as well as reclaim space from the useless (400+MB) system image. I used REPIT for this. You need two files, REPIT info...

Can someone confirm that the Le S3 (US version X522) have 4G+3G (not 4G+2G) dual standby? Specifically, I need to know whether an AT&T SIM in the 2nd SIM slot will work on standby. AT&T dropped 2G, so 3G standby is needed. I would appreciate firsthand experience if possible. Thanks in advance.

My thanks to Amaces for his continuing work on the Nook series, and Happy Holidays to everyone here, those who still remain. I've just clean installed cm_ovation-ota-NMF26Q.161222 onto a Nook HD+. One apparent bug I've yet to see reported is that the system button menu is turned vertical...

HoloLens looks interesting, but I'm used to product launch hype, and excited I ain't. This isn't revolutionary, but evolutionary. The AR (not holographic) function is a step beyond the VR scheme of the competition, but this is mere leapfrogging over present Oculus & co, and we've yet to see...

As per the title, I'd like to know the install size of Win10 tech preview 2, and if it is any different when installing on a smallish (32GB) space than versus a larger HDD. How many partitions does Win10 create, and what are their sizes? Basically, I'm trying to ascertain if Win 10 is any more...

I encountered same boot-hang problem when clean installing Win 8.1, and Win 10 shouldn't be different. My solutions: Post-install boot-hang: The hang at logo boot happens when I don't format the install-to partitition with Win 8.1 installer (I normally partition/format using another tool, to...

You did enough on the software side. That the problem is intermittent indicates that it's probably hardware-related and not software. Possibilities: . flaky adapter connection - Remove adapter from its socket and reseat it. Disconnect antenna connectors and reconnect them. Check for...

>Unfortunately, there is a clear pattern of 3-4 posters have had a serious, and frankly irrational hatred for Console OS since its inception. Yes, this tack worked the last time for you, playing the victim and duping the mods. But it's now five months later, and it's harder to cry wolf when...

Christopher, Good on you for having the chutzpah to face your critics head-on and staying on-script. No matter how bad things get, never let them see you sweat, eh? Then again, pulling the disappearing act at this point hardly helps your cause any, so sticking it out is indeed your best bet...

fgdn17 - Ironic that Price is harping about the propriety of licensing, when Console OS is in all likelihood lifted straight from Android-IA (or x86) without any attribution. Anyway, I was sitting and wondering why Price is still hanging around with this schtick, when it's already at the end of...

I don't want to go too far afield. What you're mentioning is graft, which is apart from what we have here--fraud. Neither do I want to get into the murky area of ethics. There are different shades of fraud. While Christopher Price's Console OS swindle isn't egregious--i.e. he didn't simply take...

>78 grand is a pretty handsome reward for bad behavior. Christopher Price is only one of many opportunistic scammers who exploit the faults of the system. The "system" here is the crowdfunding process, within which there is no accountability. It is ripe for swindlers and hucksters to exploit...

Happy Holidays, everyone. A thread about Console OS already existed in the Windows 8 General forum, while its KS was still ongoing. In that thread, I've detailed a fair bit of the shenanigans I dug up for its principal, Chris Price. He promised the moon, and as would be expected, there were...

Thanks for the brainstorm, even though it didn't work. Per your prompting, I did put a SD card in and reboot--but the point in defaulting to internal is not needing to have a card inserted. I tried it both with and without. Rather than defaulting to /storage/sdcard1, it now defaults to /sdcard...

Maybe you can tell me. There are two entries for sdcard0 (I didn't have a card inserted), one says vold and the other says fuse. /dev/block/vold/179:8 /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0 vfat...

>Does the encore CM11 build.prop have the correct switchable pair statement shown in my referenced post on the CM10.2 thread? It does, although the order was swapped ro.vold.switchablepair=/storage/sdcard1,/storage/sdcard0 I was unsure if the ordering mattered, so I switched it for sdcard0 to...

leapinlar, I'm assuming you're referring to your post here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45615175&postcount=90 I tried this, and it doesn't look to work on CM11. aperezdc has found same (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50063043&postcount=80); another neg here...

Progress report to those who care...searched on my own questions above, and int/ext sd swap was built into CM7 and 9, but apparently with JB multiuser and now KK's SD changes, the old workarounds broke. Earlier in this thread, aperezdc suggested a patch to CM for user-settable switch; Steven676...

Hi all, Let me first thank all the folks who are still keeping the NookC ticking: Steven676, fattire, the tireless leapinlar, and all the contributors. It's a bit amazing the 4-yr-old guy--an eternity in tablet time--is still able to run the latest software and apps. Let's hope for another 4...

>in landscape mode [widescreens] allow more windows or documents side-by-side...and in portrait mode they provide an excellent format for a long-but-not-too-wide text column Side-by-side doc viewing is applicable for desktop-sized (20+") displays, not tablets. Tab displays are already...

>Non-widescreen ratios were normal for years until the more recent trend for 16:9, nothing that Apple are "leading" on. Sorry, Apple iPad leads the way on 4:3 tablets. Yep, 4:3 CRTs existed way back when (I had plenty of them), but wide-screen now dominates computing displays, including...

>Really depends how thoroughly they mean "one operating system". I mean, to a certain degree, that's already true. Yeah, MS watchers said it's the same old--IOW, "foot, meet mouth" for Gandhi Man. Leadership is about many things, but most fundamental is communication. So far, dude is like a PR...

While I appreciate the effort, mass-blocking via the hosts file isn't a good idea for canvas fingerprinting (CF) blocking. In fact, it's not a good idea, period, since it requires the user's thorough knowledge of the sites be blocked, and constant monitoring of any changes. IP-blocking should be...

http://www.businessinsider.com/nadella-merges-windows-phone-windows-2014-7 "This means one operating system that covers all screen sizes," Nadella said to analysts on the quarterly conference call. "We will streamline the next version of Windows from three operating systems into one single...

I think it's a good thing for all concerned. It's obviously good for C.Price bud, who'll get a pretty good payday for basically some smooth talk. It's good for Price's fans, who get to dream about some cool (imaginary) stuff, at least for a while. Two months of anticipation for 10 measly...

>I understand that we are poles apart on this issue. But isn't *all* kickstarter campaign based on certain amount of faith? Sorry, no. Investing isn't about "faith," nor is this particular case a matter of opinion. Aforementioned issues are concrete data points that can/can't be verified. BTW...

>I do hope MMV delivers a dual boot solution for my Asus Transformer T100 (fingers crossed). The notion of investing--what you're doing--with "fingers crossed" is so adorably naive that I just had to grin a little. As said from the outset, I think it's a good idea for everybody to experience...

If there isn't a means to reset the CMOS, the normal method is to remove the CMOS battery for a few minutes. That means you have to disassemble the system. From video below, it should be straightforward. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WkDrJq5cc8 Look for a button battery. If it's soldered in...

>Bann for looking for looking some more reliable input LOL hope not. I really like to get this conversation going so I can judge if this is worth my money. You don't need "reliable input," just exercise some common sense and ask the questions. Do some actual thinking yourself, rather than just...

>I'm curious what you consider to be a "consumer-level" hypervisor A better choice of words would be standalone hypervisor, or perhaps (noob) user-installable hypervisor. The examples you mentioned are either baked into the product/OS, or are highly technical undertakings that are outside the...

BTW, for those in the market, T100 refurb (32GB flash) is hitting bargain bin at NewEgg. Good until 7/5. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834231730 $260 - $50 rebate (cash card) = $210 Decent deal for a last-gen refurb. Worth it if you need one right now, but new (BETTER...

>10$ for driver optimized distro of x86 Android is awesome For a con, small amount (and large numbers of marks) is best. People won't bother with due diligence for a paltry few bucks, and once it's sprung, they can brush off the loss and not come after you. Manipulate risk-reward ratio to have...

>video-looping is actually moderately hard on the battery. It depends on the SoC; some are optimized for video decoding, and battery will actually last longer on vid-loop test than a more representative test. Engadget's batt test is vid-loop. >Shame about awful cameras though; even the...

>I just donated him 12$ for his good work- you guy can reach him at [email protected] Hahah, thanks for the chuckle.

>Dual boot is pain, if something which is working on Virtual Machine that makes me happy... Yes it is, which is why people who want dual-boot is a tiny minority. Console OS purportedly has a hypervisor, which presumably will run beneath both OS'es, and allowing "instant switching." Purportedly...

>Asus T100 Worth it? Probably not. It'll be outdated within the month, when new Bay Trail lines come out for back-to-school shopping. The new stuff will be cheaper, and won't have problems of the previous gen, like 32-bit UEFI. Buy T100 if it's a good deal, say half off, but that won't happen...

Yeah, making a free OS into a dual-boot paid OS is a non-starter, excuse the pun. The KS video pitch took about 30secs to trigger my BS meter. It's the downside of KS; easy money from the gullible will always attract sharks. Liliputing has a piece on some Chinese tab vendors offering drop-in...
