p6800 problem flashing Slimrom, Carbon, AOSB from PacRom milestone.1.release
Hey Everyone,
Noob here, been using Daniel_HK's Pac Rom as a daily for almost a year now, happy happy, but now I wanted to try Slimrom, smaller footprint, easier on RAM, maybe. Problem is, I can't get latest Slimrom, Carbon, or AOSB to flash with either CWM-6.0.3.0 or CWM-6.0.4.5. Just wondering what kind of diagnostic information to provide and if anyone can offer me some help. I have experience with Odin (took a stock p1000 through Overcome and CM9) and have tried CWM flash and Mobile Odin on the P6800. I try Factory Reset/Wipe Cache/Wipe Dalvik, flash rom, and then try reboot, also try all Wipes, then reboot, try Format System as suggests in the Slimrom FAQ. Not sure what my next step is, really want to try Slimrom or Carbon or OMNI. Any help is greatly appreciated. Big thanks to Daniel_HK and everyone who keeps our beloved P6800 alive.

Bluetooth pan
Trying to get Internet connection on Galaxy Tab 7.7 P6800 from Iphone over bluetooth
In iPhone, there is blue stripe on top saying there is one device connected to modem
In P6800, there is "Used for internet connection of another device" status in Bluetooth Settings under the Iphone (not sure of exact status as it is in Rusian)
But there's no Internet on P6800 (e.g. browser says "no internet connection")
Device is Galaxy tab 7.7 P6800, slimkat Slim-4.4.4.build.8.20-UNOFICCIAL-20141215-1732
File bluetooth-patch2.zip installed (from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2666261 )
From very same iphone, internet sharing over bluetooth works with sony z3 tablet without problems.
Files are transfered to P6800 from windows machine over bluetooth with no problems.
The question is if it is possible to connect to Internet from P6800 over bluetooth?
upd. Actually happens the following.
After connecting, I see in terminal window that interface bt-pan is up, but not ip address assigned to it
after performing commands in terminal with root rights
netcfg bt-pan dhcp
route add default gw 172.20.10.1 dev bt-pan
Internet is working in firefox and chrome browser (but not in embedded browser).
In play market, I can search for application but can not install it, as play market says "waiting for network connection".

You should better read/ask in your phone's section.
Here is a short preview of the "advanced" android world :
- In order to backup your phone data you need a recovery.
- The most known recoveries are CWM and TWRP (in most phones you get into recovery pressing power and volume buttons while the phone is off).
- From the recoveries you can install a new ROM (firmware) to your phone, make a backup/restore or flash zip files (that run commands and move files)
- Cyanogenmod / Cm is a famous ROM with different versions for many phones. Cm11 is the Cyanogenmod kitkat version (10 jellybean, 9 icecream etc)
I hope you got the main idea
Sorry I am not getting the backup and restore option in my cwm as it shows in the videos

Mokee: Problem with Call waiting, hang up and other in call tones
Context:
I use Moto Atrix 2 [edison] running MK44.4-edison-141019-RELEASE.zip
The following observation is from the day I installed Mokee in August 2014
I have similar experience with NIGHTLY ROMs as well. These versions use the modified dialer in google AOSP KitKat.
Problem:
My phone has an irritating tone for call drop/call waiting/ etc.
What I have tried:
I wanted to change the respective tones and hence was looking for .ogg or similar files in the system partition. I found media/audio/ui folder has some .oggs such as lock, unlock, etc. but nothing related to call hangup or waiting. There is no setting to disable the sounds as well.
After a little digging, (disassembling dialer.apk and incallui.apk and reading on the internet) I found that android does not use audio files for such sounds. Rather uses a C++ library to generate sinewaves based on given frequency and duration.
ToneGenerator.java, ToneGenerator.h, ToneGenerator.cpp are crucial in generating these tones. When I compared these files in ICS and Kitkat, i hardly found any changes. (I did not have this problem with Stock ICS)
Later I realized, this problem happens only during a call. e.g the above files also control the DTMF tones of the dial pad. When idle (no call connected), dial tones sound proper. But when in a call and I try to use the dial pad, the same horrible sound is played. This horrible sound is like a very slowed (slow tempo) version of the original tone.
This leads me to believe there is some problem with the incallui (or the section of dialer handling incall events) which probably uses a lot of resource: hence slows down "ToneGeneration" .
I have also tried changing the final variable MAX_VOLUME in ToneGenerator.smali (after disassembling framework.jar) to 50 percent, but it dint lower the volume.
Other Mokee users, please check if you have this problem.
Any idea how I can fix this or atleast change the volume to 0.
Any help would be appreciated.
SD Card issues

I think u should put your questions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877166
This topic is only for LiquidSmooth questions
About your question: Install BMM and do partition stuffs then you will be able to install 4 more custom ROMs on your phone :fingers-crossed:
But first, read this great tutorial (including videos)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2602229
System 6 Error when loading Nano/mini Gapps on LS v32 Atrix2
I got brave today, after much reading on the forums and watching Tech ArnY rooting videos and BMM 0.3.4 - Great information.
Here are the steps that I took today and their results:
1.) Rooted the Atrix 2 MB865 (AT&T) that has OTA ICS 4.0.4 ROM. Rooting was successful,
2.) Post install of MBB 0.3.4 and SuperUser, I kept the ICS 4.0.4 ROM on System 1 of the phone.
3.) Next, following Tech Arn Y's teaching, I was able to successfully flash LiquidSmooth (AcePort-LS-KK-Milestone-3.2-edison.zip) onto System 3 post wipe clean /dalvik, et cetera and successful install.
4.) So far, so good. Next I attempted to load GAPPS from this link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2397942). Again, post check of MD5 check sum for both mini and nano GAPPS - no issues.
5.) While attempting to flash either the mini or nano GAPPS onto the Atrix 2 into System 3, it shows the following (E: Error in /ext/pa_gapps-modular-nano-4.4.4-20141121-signed.zip) (Status 6) Installation aborted.
6.) I can boot into either ROM without issues, however, even after a reflash of System 3 and again successful install of LS-KK-Miestone 3.2, GAPPS gives Status 6 install error.
Looking for clues in these forums, but I have not come across anything yet. Any/all help would be very much appreciated!
@Starrider17 I'm betting your gapps are too large for your partition size. Find the PA gapps thread and download the pico gapps then try again. If it fails again the PA gapps will generate a log and place it on your SD card to tell you why it failed.

Thanks 1BadWolf for the reply. At first, I thought that the size of the GAPPS was perhaps the issue, but it did not end up to be the case. After continuing my search in XDA Forums (a wealth of great information here without doubt!), I stumbled upon a video that explained Status 6 and Status 7 errors which are the most common when flashing GAPPS post ROM into any phone. In my case, here is the summary of the events:
1.) Flashed pa-gapps mini 4.4.4 (at 229 mbytes ) - Status 6 error.
2.) Wipe clean System 3 and then flashed pa-gapps-nano 4.4.4 (at 120 mbytes) 2x - Status 6 error.
3.) Being somewhat frustrated, and yet challenged, I took the clue for the status 6 error and by chance, I grabbed the Slim_mini-gapps 4.4.4 (at 65 mybtes) - Gapps successfully loaded!
4.) Wanting to confirm whether the issue lives in the size of the GAPPS - or - something in one of the scripts (Meta-INF > com > google > android > update-binary or update-script), I went ahead and did another Wipe-Clean and flashed Slim-normal-gapps 4.4.4 (at 183 mbytes) - Gapps successfully loaded
Summary: In business and in life, something a solution or a work-around is found and implemented without knowing the root cause!
Hopefully, the documenting of my journey here will be beneficial to someone down the road just as many of the posting in this forum have been (and continue to be) to me too!

Hey guys, thanks for trying out my Liquidsmooth port and offering your feedback. Unfortunately, I'm no longer able to work on the existing ports or even lollipop since development has completely died down.
This is because our current recovery, BMM isn't able to boot any lollipop rom and it's the only working one we have. All developers and supporters have moved on pretty much, so all you can do is just play around with what's there. I'm still kinda around with my A2, but don't have the time to do anything anymore since I've moved onto a newer device, work, life, etc.
If you want someone to blame for this, firstly blame Motorola for the locked bootloader and then blame Google for making 5.0 have enforced SELinux which is why we can't boot any LP rom. Aside from that, this device is amazing to have and I hope you all have a wonderful time with it.

Hi guys,
First, thank you very much for all these up-to-date builds.
I've install Ubuntu Touch, the last Nightly, the last 2.2 and the last 2.1 (available on your site) with MultiROM on my Nexus 5. Unfortunately, all FirefoxOS installations have the same problem : my SIM card is not detected. Neither Ubuntu Phone nor Android 5 have this issue. Does anyone already seen that ? Any clue on how to fix that problem ? I'm also French with "Free" French network, in case that could help.
Thanking you in advance,

However, it's for a great news. I have FFOS et Ubuntu both install on my Nexus 5! It went so smooth that I'm really impressed and I don't see any problem for anyone to install it even non developper.
I want to thank you because I'm really happy.
I'm going to describe what I did yesterday night to install it to confort other geek newebe to try.

HOW TO INSTALL FFOS on your NEXUS 5 with MultiROM (Tuto for Beginner)
Hello dear excited non developer free fellow,
If like me, you want to try Mozilla FFOS on a phone and are tempted by trying a multiboot system on a Nexus 5, here is how I did, in just one evening.
First, I discovered this page, from Tasssadar
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/mod-multirom-v24-t2571011
and then, this one, well the one you are coming from actually, from Vosky,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/nightly-firefox-os-t2960953
I read the first page of Tassadar thread, and I didn't understand anything! It's normal if you do to, there are many words you need to get familiar with. Read it (not more than the first page for now), don't worry, we will come back to it later.
Then, you have to read all Vosky's Thread from page 1 to 9 (maybe after will be good too but at the date I'm writing, they are not written yet . A lot of your questions will be answered. Don't assume that my explanations will be enough, you need to have a bigger picture of the process, you need to read all these pages.
First, it gets clearer how you'll download FFOS. You have to download from http://ffos.vosky.fr/ from the Recovery column. Today, saturday 2015/05/09 you have three choices, two quiet stables versions called "Pre-releases", V2.1 is the one to choose if you don't have Android Lollipop, and V2.2 if you have Android Lollipop, then, if you want to try the last features and help to detect bug, you can go for the last "Nightly builds" which are the latest work done by Mozilla's team on FFOS 3.0.
Good, now you need to go back reading Tasssadar's Thread. If their are still word that you don't understand, check what they mean. I didn't read much of this one because I decided to go for the easiest way. I followed the "Installation Via MultiROM Manager app". On the page of the app,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tassadar.multirommgr
there is a great video. You need to watch it before going further.
If you are as newebe than me in this case, after installing the app, you'll have a red warning saying something like "MultiROM Manager app couldn't get root access". No worries, you just need to unlock and root your Nexus 5.
For That, I follow Chainfire's Thread here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/nexus-5-cf-auto-root-t2507211
and this very precise video,
http://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-root-and-unlock-the-google-nexus-5-xda-developer-tv/
I know it works for Android Lollipop V5.0 and V5.1 but earlier version, sorry, I don't know. Watch the video a first time entirely and then, watch it and pause after each step to catch up what they are doing. It's easy and very well explained. You'll need to download CF-Auto-Root here https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ . Look for the download link at the line Nexus 5.
Now, you can go back to the previous video, the one about MultiROM Manager app that you find here, remember,
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tassadar.multirommgr
As you watch entirely before, you can follow it step by step, pausing sometime to catch up what they are saying. Read again "Installation Via MultiROM Manager app" paragraph on Tasssadar's Thread if a warning Kernel: doesn't have kexec-hardboot patch! in red letters appears. I install the default one called Stock 5.1 if I remember well (I have Android 5.1 installed on my Nexus 5).
Read again the beginning of my post to choose the FFOS version you need to download.
What is not said in the video is that when the download is finished, and he is going to Install, he is in an environment we are not so familiar, because they didn't explain earlier what it is. It's the recovery mode. You reach it after shutting down your phone and start your phone with pushing the down volume button. You'll find the little robot you've met earlier to Install CF-Auto-Root, you choose Recovery mode with up or down volume and select it with power button, then you will recognize what he is saying in the video... clicking on "Advance" and stuff.
The end is so easy, as far as you know where you put your zip file of FFOS in your Nexus 5.
Enjoy!
And if you want to install Ubuntu Touch, I don't need to give you any explanation, it's so easy. You just go back in your Android, in MultiROM Manager app and after choosing the Ubuntu you want, you click on Install.
I guess, my only request would be to ask our great devs Vosky and Tasssadar to work together in order to offer us a so well integration of FFOS than Ubuntu Touch inside the MultiROM Manager app. It would be perfect!
Don't forget to Thank Vosky, Tasssadar and Chainfire by clicking on the "Thanks" button (a thumb) at the bottom of their first post on their Thread, the button will become yellow. They are doing a great job! Tell them!
Now, if you have a problem to install FFOS or Ubuntu Touch on your Nexus 5, don't come after me, I can't help more than that. However, I'm sure if you ask a polite question on this Thread that has not been yet answered thousands time, you'll get a quick answer!
Enjoy freedom.
[Now, I have to figure out how to import my contact into Mozilla FFOS V3.0 from my Mozilla Thunderbird 31.6 without being friend of Google, and that my dear seems way much more complicated. A simple usb cable and a sync or even import button are out of dream today... how weird!]
HOW TO UPDATE your FFOS ROM !
It's not more complicated than installing. Download here, http://ffos.vosky.fr/ , the FFOS version you want, in the recovery column. Copy it in your phone.
You return in the recovery mode. You reach it after shutting down your phone and start your phone with pushing the down volume button. You'll find the little robot you've met earlier again, you choose Recovery mode with up or down volume and select it with power button, then you have to follow this path : click on Advanced - MultiROM - List ROMs - select your previous FFOS ROM and click on Flash ZIP - select the zip of the FFOS ROM you've just downloaded - SWAP- click on Reboot.
You've just updated your FFOS ROM!
screenshot and phone answering?
Hello,
I installed FFOS3.0, the same nightly build, on two nexus 5, one for me, one for my mum.
Two questions : once, my mum took a screenshot of an app, but she can't remember how, and I didn't manage so far to take any with my nexus.
How do you take a screenshot with FFOS 3.0 on your nexus 5?
[Then, don't ask me how is that possible but the way we both answer a phone call is different. I just have to click on on of the two buttons, a red on the left and a green a green on the right to decline or answer the call. She has to slide a button to left (red) or right (green) to do the same. How to choose if you want two buttons and click or one button to slide?]
I found the solution : if I switch on the developer mode, I have the two buttons but if I'm not in developper mode, I have the switching button.
Thank you,
A bigger firefox when the phone start?
Hello,
It's not a big deal but, at the starting of the phone, could the nice animated firefox be a bit bigger?
I like my firefox but I can't see him enough.
"Based on Mozilla Technology" is at a good size, but the animated firefox is way too small. If it could take all the screen, it woud be great! Don't you think?
Best regards dear mozilian,
Thatoo

Yes it works with MR. Read the main thread for more feedbacks.
Finally I'm using this Rom!
Basically it's cool but you know it has a long way to get much more stable & usable.
First of all I agree with that guy who suggested big Firefox animated on the boot screen.
Then I know this a new & fresh project but it needs more debugging.
For example at the first when I was trying to connect to ma WiFi after I touched the join button it takes more than 5mins to join ma network!
After that I downloaded some apps from store like Telegram, when I was trying to filled the blanks with ma phone number touchscreen didn't works & I already can't login with ma number cuz jumping from one blank to another blanks for registration has bug & I can't fill them!
In settings we've lots of problems,I can't manually change ma screen brightness from that swipe bar of it so I've to tick the auto brightness!
& also have a same problem in any swipe bars in menu like volume & alarms up & down when i touch them nothing changes!
Sometimes ma phone crash (stopped working) on menu & some apps like browser & I've to wait for response to continue ma job!
______________
There is more you know but I didn't remember all !
I really like this OS & in future hope so use this OS as ma major Rom on ma N5!
PLEASE WORK ON IT!!
and sorry fo ma bad English ?

quicktoggle works
I don't know what made it work but here is what I did
Installed lollipop5.1 gapps(the one for custom roms) from zedomax's highonandroid.com
Boot up and installed some apps
Reboot ,got a notification from WhatsApp
Hold down it and dragged it down
Reconnect to WiFi due to bug
Exited the toggle by swiping the whole thing 3/4 way up,then close the small tab
Quicksettings then worked normally for me:silly:
Brightness changer won't work so just use screen filter from play store
Can't wait for next build

Q & A section for the P6200
Hi!
Can you put a Q&A section on the P6200 5.1? I use your ROM as my daily driver (from your CM12), and I want to share my experiences on the ROM. Can't post on the Discussion Thread as I'm 8 posts short (this is my 2nd post)
Thank you!
OmniROM
Any new updates for this ROM? Apparently using CM 12.1 gave me headaches because of multitasking issues (opening facebook, messenger and spotify is like entering the gates of hell because the tablet will be really slow) so my daily driver is this ROM for my P6200
Cant post on the original thread because of newbie reasons.
- simcard not working because of baseband missing
- brightness solved using screen brightness app (disabling auto)
- Quick settings solved by installing GApps
- Same issues mentioned in the original thread.
I hope that you're heavily working on this ROM because this is the most stable ROM that i've installed on my P6200 as of this moment (and really fast too, even WITHOUT THE ZRAM)
I'm technishaun btw
Wait for nxt update
Wish it fix all problem

Thanks @daniel_hk for continuing to keep this device alive
I've installed the 4th August build of OmniROM 5.1 on my P6800 and it's working fairly well, seems much smoother than the 4.4.4 Carbon ROM I was running before.
Things that I've noticed not working:
GPS (after digging through some other threads about this I notice that gpsd isn't running, and if I try and launch it from a terminal I get an error about 'only position independent executables (PIE) are supported')
Bluetooth won't enable
Can turn torch on in the quick access area, but it won't turn off again
I just can´t flash it
I´m getting this message ... Need some help
