Wifi Crash, Media Crash, Settings "Storage" Crash
Hey guys, I'm on PA 4.6 BETA5, when I flash the aosp or franko kernel (after going back to stock kernel before flashing the new one) my Wifi won't enable, android.something.media crashes and in the settings app, when I tap storage the app crashes...any way to solve this problem or an alternative? Thanks!
PS: I'm really sorry if this was asked before, I read the hole last 10 sites of the forum and didnt found anythings related to my problem, "just" 10 sites because I think its related to 4.4.4 and maybe PA.

There are custom kernels (unleased kernel series, Hells Doctor, Hellscore, ...) which supports OTG and also supports Lolipop.
Stock Lollipop
A zip file where i can make a modification to my stock kernel on the N4! I want to use the stock for a few days to test it!

mm okey! so, have you test Hells Doctor on Lollipop? I will try out it this afternoon. I'm running a 4.3 stock perfectly with the otg, but Lollipop look like so excited.
Lollipop
Is there a patch for android lollipop for OTG support? I have franco.Kernel installed.
Lollipop
Is there a patch for Lollipop? Or does the kitkat patch work on lollipop?

I have no idea! I have tested Hells Doctor and Hell Core kernels on my Nexus 4 running Stock Lollipop and anyone work. :crying: :crying:
Anyone tried this patch on stock Lollipop kernel? Does it work?
How does one "Simply install the zip in recovery"?
My screen is broken (just the touch; everything is still visible). I was hoping I could install this mod without being able to touch the lower half of my screen so that I could plug in a mouse so that I could copy some files off my device.
I can reboot into recovery mode, but USB debugging is *not* enabled. I've never used "adb" on this device before (I just says "offline" when I try to run it from my PC).
I have no idea how to "install a zip".
Phone is an Nexus 4, running android 4.something.

please help.
Thanks,
Is the OP willing to develop the patch for lollipop too? Or is there any nice kernel with USB host support?
nexus 4 lolipop 5.0.1 and xbox wireless gamepad
Hello. I want use xbox360 wireless gamepad on my nexus 4 lolipop 5.0.1. I think first I need kernel with OTG support. What kernel I can download on 5.0.1 android? I need y-cable for receiver of xbox360. what about mouses and keyboards they also need y-cable?
What can be the problem, why OTG still doesn't work
Hey guys,
however I'm completely new to this stuff, I managed to get through every barriers, and I put Cyanogenmod 11 snapshot M12 on my Nexus 4 and after that flashed the suggested kernel and patch successfully to try out OTG. The phone works withput problem, the installations seem to be successful, therefore I tried to connect an external storage to the phone to check if OTG works on it.
For that, I used a SIMPLE OTG cable like this:
<<<LINK CANNOT BE SHOWN SINCE I AM NEW TO THE FORUM - picture is the second picture of the first post in this thread>>>
connected to an Y-cable SIMILAR to this:
<<<NO LINK AGAIN - the 3rd picture of the first post in this thread>>>
The difference from the one on the picture is that mine has a male mini USB end instead of a female normal USB end as in the picture. My cable is the cable of an external wichester otherwise.
So, I tried with this cable setup, the result was that both the phone and the connected storage received electricity from the external power source, but the storage was not detected by the phone. I had a feeling that it doesn't get enogh power, so I attached it to a USB phone charger just to be sure, but the situation remained the same: the light on the storage was green, which means it is charging, the light on the phone was also on, but the storage was not detected.
My question is if I should try with the exact same cable set that can be found in the first post of this thread on the first picture or mine also should do the job, and there should be still some software related problem?
Please also tell me if you need more information on this to answer it, however I tried to be specific.
Thank you for your help in advance.
Hello. What i can do on lolipop? There is no solution? I have a 32gb flash drive, y-otg cable, standart power adapter micro-usb-male. Rooted nexus4
Which zip I need to download?
Hi, i'm really beggining on Android stuffs, since I didnt had one until the last week, so I'm really in doubt about which one of the zip files i need to install in my system to make the OTG cable work properly.
Once I downloaded a random ziddley zip on the internet and when I installed it in recovery mode, i needed to reinstall the android system on my phone, since the phone wont boot anymore.
So, can anyone help me? I'm sharing in this post a screenshot of the Android Version screen on the settings. I've rooted my phone using the King Root app
Considering that my android version is 4.4.4, I consider that I may download one of the following:
4.4.x: 2013.12.11 1604ET: [fk r199] [fk r199-CM]
4.4.x: 2013.12.06 1445ET: [aosp r7]
But which one?
And just another noob question. Is this the right way to install the ziddley zip on my phone?
(www).addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-install-a-rom-or-app-from-zip-file-to-android-device-from-recovery/
Sorry for the noob questions and thanks to anyone who helps, because I REALLY need the otg cable to work, so I can develop some things using the XBOX 360 cable!

((Ok so here's the low down. I have the SM-G530T1. am trying to root the stock, deknox, deodex, debloat but leave the MyMetro app and the hotspot app other mods you name it.. but those are for starters. I have not found a stable way to pull this off yet as the only rooting methods I found that lets me use supersu is CF-Autoroot..... but... it is for the SM-G530T not the T1 so even though it works it still messes up which is why I am here.
I am hungry for learning and becoming a dev one day so I'd like to learn my way around the Kitchen but so far the windows kitchens are just bootlooping me.. Bad batches roms... I have tried many many ways and no success yet because the stock rom is such a pain to mess with unless you have root access. I thought about trying to use king root just to get a stock rom pull but im not sure if that idea will workout for me in the end seeing how kingroot is such a dbag and doesn't let you use supersu. I Need all the help I can get I'd really love to get a working rom for my dumb little phone so I can use that as a base to learn from.
The T1 and the T dont have much in differences so if one of you awesome people could maybe check out the stock metro pcs version for me and help me get something stable I'd appreciate that a lot. I am trying to help a few people out with this same phone as well so all credit will go to those who helped make this possible. I have windows 7 64bit that barely works and is not mine so I am limited to what I can do. I think my biggest issue is I am not able to use linux and ubuntu because this laptop is really old and barely works. VM doesn't even register the 64bit on this laptop. really sucks.:silly:
###### UPDATE as of 8/25/16, With the help of @ASSAYYED and his awesome kitchen made for windows. I have been able to at least get proper root access now.. but still need a recovery. I am trying to make one from stock but really need help for my device. Here are the specs.. All I need is either some one to be awesome and make me a quick one or tell me hw to make one for a qcom device like I have please..
my phone info if that helps http://www.4shared.com/photo/ZaSM2d9rce/Screenshot_2016-08-25-07-08-53.html

@ASSAYYED , for helping me thus far and providing a awesome windows kitchen to cook in.
here is link to his thread and tool info, http://forum.xda-developers.com/che...-android-roms-editor-assayyedkitchen-t3410545 ####
I recently bought a FLIR ONE thermal imaging camera. Unfortunately, the device is not detected on my D802 using any marshmallow ROM.
I was using Resurrection Remix rom, but also tried Paranoid, XOSP, Dirty Unicorns, AICP, .... with no luck. Also, flashing Dorimanx and Lambda kernel didn't help.
When I run Chainfire USB Host Diagnostics, it says the kernel supports it, but OS does not.
On Lollipop (stock-based) roms, there is no issue, and the device is detected.
Can someone explain why the marshmallow ROMs miss this support. Is there any way to get this working ? I'm now running a LP rom again, just to be able to use the cam, but it really feels like a downgrade.
Same here, did you manage to fix it?

No fix other than going to stock based ROM or other phone.
All mm/aosp/caf roms are using a generic otg driver that breaks support for usb host intent filters. In other words, the phone won't broadcast to applications the a usb otg device has been plugged in.
It's not just your device in question, any device other than flash storage doesn't get detected. A developer could probably fix this but as it is broken in all non-stock roms it would probably be challenging to fix.
I do android development Mostly for the droid turbo, apps and tweaks. I think i may be able to help out here.
I did manage to get flir one working on none stock rom last night. It worked fine on stock. Then i seen this post installed cm and no joy. So after a bit of tweaking i did get it to work. I will see if i can come up with some kind of Universal patch for all users.
I will try and post a how to video to get it working on non stock roms. I am going to pull out some other phones to see if the patch works on all phones.
Keep an eye on my youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/iphostway/videos
I will work on a Universal fix starting today.

If I can help testing your fix, please let me know.
Hello, this device is relatively new and it is mid-range, but it is a good terminal, the developers believe that they should make it an appropriate root to be able to have all the advantages. please, let me know if there is any root for this model that has android 8.1.0. Thank you
I have the phone too, its mediocre but I feel it could do much more rooted with proper apps.
I don't have any knowledge of rooting so I can't do any technical or "long way" methods. However I tried ALL the "One-Click" root methods with & without a PC, NONE as worked. Most saying they can't work with this device.
A lot of people won't have a Blu phone let alone a newer low priced one, so I doubt much answers will come thats simple. But Please let me know also if anybody can help
Hi guys,
I have an androod tv box which has android 9
It's already rooted by the manufacture and the bootloader obviously unlocked
So, i think my only problem is that my device doesn't have a MicroUSB/Type-C port
It has a Usb3 and a Usb2 port
Even if i am able to install a custom how should i connect through ADB? Without a micro or type-c port
I read another forum on XDA and it looks like i shoukd know the board manufacture, the chipset and so many things but i don't want to open it up i just want a better rom on my android box brcause it's a bit bloated by the manufacture and it annoys me that i can't install good launchers for some reason i tried many launvhers but they never work
I only got AndroidTV Launcher running which too simole and doesn't have many features
Please help me
Thank you so much
