Ok, I have a friend who won a Fire 7 running FireOS 5.4.0.1 from a raffle and wanted a bit less Amazon and a bit more Google, so through reading various threads, the following is the best I could do for him: 1. Download and Install Amazon Kindle/Fire drivers from Amazon Dev site...

Started a new thread because it could get messy: https://forum.xda-developers.com/amazon-fire/help/fire-7-2017-7th-gen-downgrade-debloat-t3699937

The first Moto G started off fine, though fairly constantly laggy (which I blamed on the low/mid specs of the phone.) Then it started getting quite warm while using it, then it started turning off with 5-10% battery left and would not turn back on, even after charging, unless you tried to turn...

I was afraid of that. I really like my battery life on KitKat though. Is this because the latest firmware updates the radios? And if I make a TWRP backup of KitKat, flash latest Lollipop, what issues will I have restoring my KitKat backup if I decide to go back after upgrading?

Unlocked bootloader, TWRP 2.8.7.2 flashed as recovery, running stock KitKat 4.4.4, never upgraded or flashed anything newer. Is there anything I need to do or know before flashing this ROM?

It might take a while to get the log, but I'll let you know when I do. I didn't figure this was a problem on your end with the app, so I'm happy for the help to be able to point it back at them to fix the bugs. Thank you!

I tried uninstalling and doing a manual install per the instructions you get when it fails and the app runs fine with Pokemon Go, but still random reboots. Sometimes it's only a minute or two, sometimes I can play 10 minutes before it does it. I posted about it being a bug in Fire Nexus and they...

I am using Fire Nexus (AOSP KitKat base, Safestrap version) on my Kindle Fire HDX 8.9" and I can get Pokemon Go installed and PokeModEX installed as root (says it failed, but it shows up in priv-app with a root file manager and a reboot of the tablet makes it seem to open fine) but the app...

I am keeping a copy of Fire Nexus in the TWRP/ROMs folder I made for safe keeping in the event of a disaster. I also have a backup of FireOS 4.5.5.1 before I flashed Fire Nexus to go back to as well. I like to be prepared.

I loaded this a friend's 8.9" HDX after they were tired of not being able to run the apps and games that their other friends were playing off the Google Play store. Everything went really smooth with apps and installs until Pokemon Go. The app downloaded and installed fine. Chrome downloaded and...

I tried turning on my Shield (WiFi) tablet today and it just stays stuck on the nVidia logo. I tried booting into recovery and it also just sits, stuck on the nVidia logo. I figured it might be corrupted (bad update, possibly), so I decided to restore it to factory settings by using the latest...

Specs: Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz, 2GB RAM, GMA950 Graphics, Corsair Voyager USB 3.0 USB drive After downloading the 32bit build, I got Google Play up and running without issue and decided to install some apps. Needless to say, I've run into a handful of bugs, some pretty big show stoppers: My...

I don't have a password on my WiFi and my Moto X will connect to my WiFi and was working fine yesterday, but today will not load web pages or application data (ie product listings on Amazon, Google Play store apps, etc). I tried forgetting resetting my router and forgetting my WiFi on the phone...

This has been happening the last few days, at least once if not twice daily, but I will unlock my phone to find out the Google Voice Keyboard is frozen with no way to force close it and block the bottom half of my screen on EVERY screen. The only way to get it to go away is to power off the...

This ROM works better than I ever expected it to. This is actually the fastest and most stable my phone has been in a long while. That said, I do still have a few bugs I run into: 1. Video recording is a very mixed bag. I use Google Camera from the Play Store and recording at 720p seems to...

I had this issue, and rebooting my phone would fix it for a while, but then it would stop working again. I decided to open each app on my phone and then call voicemail to test it until I narrowed down what the problem app was: Snapchat. Every time I opened Snapchat and tried to make a call...

AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket ParanoidAndroid 4.42 (KitKat 4.4.4) Google Play Services 5.0.84 (1259630-034) Chromecast 1.7.4 Does NOT work. Starts to connect, then Google Play Services force closes.

Sk8s CMWRTouch 6.0.2.3 14.4 is my recovery. I also noticed I have 1.97GB for system apps, only .90GB used, and it says I have ~150MB left and is complaining about storage space.

I had this problem with 4.3 BETA7 and the newest 4.4-RC1 Build. I flash the rom and Gapps, then install Nandroid Manager to restore my apps (not data,) texts, mms, and WiFi hotspots. I reboot to finish the restore process and it shows the Samsung logo and then hangs on a black screen, never even...

Alright. I did that and let it go for a while as I did other stuff and it finally did update everything. Also, no more force closes so far. Hopefully it will be smooth sailing from here out. Thanks for the help and thanks to the thread creator for the Tutorial!

I got Genymotion setup, files downloaded, VM started and drug the ARM zip to the window and flashed it when it asked. I powered off the virtual tablet then powered it back on. Then I drug the Gapps to the windows and flashed it when it asked. Again, I powered off the virtual tablet and started...

That seemed to do the trick! Thanks! Google Voice doesn't replace talk. Google Voice lets you manage a Google Phone number, Google Talk is the Gmail Chat with Voice and Video.

Just installed this rom and restored my apps and all is good except it seems to be missing Google Talk. Maybe this was baked in the full version of the leak or doesn't exist int he leaks yet, but it's not on the play store and I know I had it before on ICS because I used it right before flashing...

Ok, the backup portion is good. Now the remaining question is that guide and if it is any good? Anyone got a better one if it isn't?

http://www.atwistedweb.com/xv6900/index.html I found that guide while doing some research and was wondering if it was a good guide to follow to install NSFAN's latest 6.5 ROM or if there was a better guide out there. Also, I am still on Verizon's stock 6.1 ROM (with only very minor...

You guys are gonna kill me, but I don't have texting either. I got to choose the phone and have no say over the plan. I have pay-per-text and pay-per-data. My plan is the standard $10 add-on line for FamilyShare 700min basic plan. We have 5 lines total, so we are pinching pennies hence no text...

Is there a guide to setup passthrough internet via bluetooth with ActiveSync? I already have bluetooth built into my laptop (it's a Macbook Pro, running Windows 7 for for ActiveSync and gaming) so essentially it would be free, but I don't want to accidentally go on Verizon's data (I am on the...

I'm not too worried about the warranty, if I was I wouldn't be here! Anyhow, sounds like I will get the best mileage out of flashing the NFSFAN WinMo 6.5 ROM and then activating the GPS ala instructions found on this forum and a wiki page I found while searching around. I still need to read up...

Ok, Android is out of the Question due to it's heavy reliance of data. Is there a better Camera or video recording app than the one included? It takes decent photos, but the gallery is pokey. Video recording is lousy quality no matter what setting I put it on (hoping to get QVGA resolution at...

I got an HTC Touch from Verizon because I wanted to get away from the clutches of Verizon's lousy software they cripple every phone with and it was the cheapest WinMo phone they sold (I got it for $40.) I got the phone and stuck with my current plan ($10 add-on line on family plan.) I am cheap...
