if anybody has a copy of the old AndroidRevolution HD 1.1 for Samsung Galaxy note 2 , i would really appericate it. I've been pulling my hair out trying to get ver 3.0 to work, but with no success. I assumed it would be as easy as 1.1 , but i was wong. One of my mistake was not making a backup after the 1.1 installation. So i'm stuck with an old image that atleast has CWM. So if anybody has this.. Thank you in advance!
thats what my repository is for
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1926506
hope it helps bro
This is great,thank you! but the links for the 1.0,1.1, and 2.0 are dead. I really appreciate the effort though. Hoping someone out there has 1.1
then mike must have taken them off...
I have 2.0 and I can Share it via dropbox, but would it help ya?

I can give it a try :fingers-crossed: , but if anything i'll hold on to it for a few unless i can't get 1.1
Why not let us disagnose your problem with 3.0?
AFAIK, 3.0 is much more improved than 1.1.
Here it is, Hope you can get it working. http://db.tt/WBP5iUSZ

Results are in and it WORKS!
With a huge grin on my face: Thank you
as to troubleshooting why 3.0 dosn't work for me, i honestly don't know what to tell you. I spent a lot of time researching it and i'm just dumb founded. If i had a spare note 2 i would try to get to the bottom of it, but alas thats not the case (too scared to brick my phone).
<--- happy once again :victory:

If you go to the main thread, it'll be there. Btw i was able to install 4.0 with no problems at all. Makes me wonder whats so different about 3.0 that makes it fail to install. Anybody have any ideas?

Revolution HD 19.0
Hi all,
First post ! I'm not totally new on this forum, I've been consulting them since my very first Android and Smart phone about 3 years ago when I bought the HTC Desire. I did create account back then in order to communicate with you guys, but I never got the privileges for posting so... I just kept reading.
New account made just now because I wanted to share my experience and maybe post a couple of questions (even tips, who knows) - and it does work now, which is nice ! So... Hello !!
I was an HTC protagonist and hated Samsung for their phones made of Taiwanese plastic and their Apple-like designs and commercial strategies... until my employer introduced a new Android application and provided us with new Samsung Galaxy Note 2 devices. Well - let's just say I was amazed on one hand by the speed and capabilities of my new device and disappointed on the other hand by my beloved HTC One X. It's just that - everything works better ! The only annoying bit was the keyboard, which is far less practical than the one on Sense... but that was easily set right with the installation of AI Keyboard and its Gingerbread theme.
So - my phone had just completed its very first charge after I unpacked it when I decided to root it immediately, install CMW6 recovery and flash it with Revolution HD 19.0 - which worked like a charm !
I'm very happy with this ROM ! My battery lasts clearly longer than that of my colleague's stock devices (about 48h with normal use - including a bit of gaming during number 2's, use of Wifi most of the time and Bluetooth in the car). The response is slightly faster too - for instance that app we use for work works just a little bit faster on mine. Same thing for Youtube, Facebook, Despicable Me (cool game :cyclops: ) and so on...
During the flashing it suggests the installation of some apps - well a few of them weren't installed after flashing although I did select them (I remember Maps was not installed for instance... unfortunately I don't remember what else I had to install manually). That means I'm not entirely sure all the tweaks suggested during the flashing were indeed enabled. I couldn't find any Revolution HD specific section in the settings (like you'd have on a Cyanogen ROM) - and couldn't find any app either to test and play with those tweaks. So can someone tell me if there's a way to find/modify those specific options/tweaks ?
What I also can tell is that one of my colleagues, who received the Note 2 the same day as I did, followed me with the rooting and flashing with his device... He seems to have been less lucky than me - he tells me every once in a while, when waking up the phone, he has no reaction when trying to unlock it (he just uses the screen swipe). He has to put it back to sleep and wake it up again before he can unlock it... Is this something that happens to anyone ?
So there you go - my experience is nearly flawless ! I love this ROM and will continue using it !
By the way : does anyone know how updates work with this ROM ? Do I have to backup my apps and data whenever a new Revolution HD ROM comes out for my phone and restore that backup after upgrade ? Or is there some kind of OTA-like update available ?

Well it was the first thread when searching for Revolution HD on this particular device - for one. And I wasn't allowed replying on the thread from the developer about Revolution HD 19.0.
Had I made a new thread about this, you'd have told me to look up other threads on the same topic before creating a new one...
Anyway, I sincerely apologize if I made your day worse somehow with my irrelevant post in such an old thread... I hope you will forgive me
Hello
Little history: I bought my phone yesterday, and i'm shocked with de poor wifi. So I back to the store do change the device, but th saleswoman said I can't change it, because of the contract that I've signed with Claro (Claro is one of the mobile operator in Brazil, and I bought this device through a fidelity plan). So I decide to fix or brick this **** and buy another. Fortunately, I think I was able to fix it and my pocket thanks it.
First of all, let's clarify somethings:
1 - I don't know a **** about developing, so don't blame me with don't work. I'm sharing this solution (that worked for me) because I'm extremely grateful to XDA since of my first day in Android. And to fix this **** that Sony makes (haha!)
2 - As if I say, it's worked for me; My Wifi is detecting more networks now and don't disconnect them. Range is better to.
3 - If I can, I'll help, but I don't know a **** about developing (again!), and I hope that the real developers will come here do help who needs.
4 - I'm in 12.0.A.2.254 firmware (rooted) (BL Locked - I'll unlock it later to teste custom roms; just waiting a feel days because of factory issues)
Ok, let's go
I did it:
1 - root following this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2405933
2 - I downloaded that Rom for Xperia L (I think that is the same wifi devices on both phones) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2419042
3 - extract the file 01_____C_n_T_JB_4.1.2_15.0.A.2.17_V1.zip\system\etc\firmware\wlan\prima\WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini and put in somewhere of easy acess
4 - copy to your phone through root explorer
5 - Reboots
AGAIN: I don't know how to developing; I don't know if it will blow my phone or whatever; I just works here.
Thanks to serajr, for his amazing rom for Xperia L (I had one, but a mother****er stole it. It's a great phone. Better camera than Xperia SP)
thanks to DooMLoRD, for allowing us to root this great device
and thanks to you, that you understand my bad english
***If it posted in wrong section, please move it***
***Sorry if I forget someone in credits, just thanks to all of developers involved in XDA***
Greetings
EDIT: Forget do upload the files. Idiot.

well to be true 2.254 firmware update did a little better though with the wifi.. but not as expected.:silly:
Still waiting for perfection or at least to meet the expectation.
This fix seems to be working
Going to give it a try, thanks
Edit: Seems to work!
Please stop using **** in every sentence you write down, it does not make any sense and is not of any use.
works perfectly on C5302_12.0.A.1.284. Thanks for this fix.
Works absolutely awesome even in custom rom. Many many thanks.

Well ok, you convinced me. I will try it out as well later tonight and will post results
At the moment my Galaxy Note II gets 2 bars at 10m distance with 2 walls.
While Xperia SP gets only 1 (or no bars at all) at distance of just 5m and one wall.
Where?
Where exactly should I put this .ini file?
Thank you
Frankly, I don't see any difference. I have the same signal power and the same problems with connection drops as I had before.

Well, in order to fix this problem, I searched the web a lot. I found many fix for it, but none of them works. I found a topic that says to overwrite this files and a lot of peoples saying that works, but not for me. So I tried this way and works.
I think it don't work for all devices, Like the lastest update solved the problem of wifi for a some peoples and not for other. Maybe something related to the region and the model of phone (5302/5303/5306/mh35)?

I've seen many people posting simple doubts, and General Section is already flooded with questions. So that this becomes a more organized section, i've had the idea to create this thread. Here i'd wish you to use it for things that don't deserve a thread for itself. I've come from Ace-i's and Y's sections, and flood there was too damn high. I'd like to prevent this. Please use it for any curiosity or nice thing you find about Moto G.
Thanks for reading this, mathm2013.
P.S: if there is already an off-topic thread, tell me please.

Moto G hardware buttons
Well I've found that many, including myself, have found that the power and volume buttons seem somewhat loose and have wiggle room. I don't know but it seemed kind of annoying to me lol. So what I did was remove the back plate and place a strip of clear tape along the buttons and that seemed to do the trick!

This actually sounds like a good idea, might use some to try and stop the back creaking as well.
Do you have another camera that can take a photo to show exactly what you did?

My back is creaking too, but only on up-right part - where the buttons are placed! Also, the volume but especially the power button is a bit loosy, but not that important!

Yep. I've gotten so tired of hunting down smartphones with decent audio output (line out) and storage options that I opted to just get an iBasso DX50 and use this coming Moto G to stream videos and play a few games.

Well, I actually prefer this kind of back since it's well attached. Some 'premium' phones don't, and when they fall they open and spread into floor. Lol at that...

Can't find backup
Hi, i want to install Xposed and GravityBox to my 4.2.2 rooted Moto G...
I read on both threads that they recomend to make Nandroid backup before installing Xposed.. So i rebooted into Fastboot, then selected Recovery, backup and restore, and it shows the following options:
- backup to /sdcard
- restore from /sdcard
- delete from /sdcard
- advance restore from /sdcard
- free unused backup data
- chooser default backup format
++go back++
Since Moto G doesn't have a sd-card, which option should i select ? I try with "backup to /sdcard", it took about 3 ~ 4 minutes to finish, then i rebooted...
I wanted to make sure the backup was done and then to copy backup to my computer but i couldnt find it on my phone..
Just find this on XT1032\Internal storage\clockworkmod:
.last_install_path
.recovery_version
Sorry for my english, i'm doing my best x) Hope you can help me..
EDIT
Forget it, i found backup stored in '/mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup', how can i backup this to my computer?
Something I can really appreciate about this phone... It doesn't heat up during heavy use like almost every other phone I've owned:thumbup: I've been browsing the internet, tapatalk, reddit & Facebook for the past hour and she's cool as a cucumber

hey guys, my request is not simple. i like the moto g alot, i had alot of android phones, but never tried mrore than root/unlocking bootloader/s-off when it comes to htcs, custom recoveries and alot of roms. I think it's time to move on and learn more. i would love to learn how to port miui to our dev the correct way, and i would like a tutuorial .. well not tutorial, alot of reading materials i guess about android, how it works, and how would one go about porting. i know you need a base, like cm10/11 which is not the case for moto g .. yet .. so what baserom should i use and what would be the first steps to porting miui to moto g ? hope someone replies and doesnt laugh at my noobness

I think it isn't possible because the latest miui is android 4.2 I guess, and moto g has only 4.3+

I admire your ambition sadly we need our source code before we can start building anything. As for porting, we would need to port from a device with similar software and hardware. Miui is just about one of the hardest things to get ported. It is by far one of the farthest from AOSP of all of the custom ROMs AFAIK.

I messed up my Elife E7
The phone is pretty great, let me tell you that. But the battery life could have been much better. My friend who has bought the LG G Pro E988 has a much better battery life compared to that of mine. Kinda makes me sad
So, like the many XDA enthusiasts with a phone out here, I tried rooting my phone. The root was successful and I was happy. Then, as my bad luck would have it, I tried this app on the play store, named Pimp my ROM (which I would say is another name for Satan), which seriously messed up my device. All I tried to do was enable the soft on screen menu and back buttons (like on the nexus).
Every single second, I get an error saying SystemUI has failed. So, left with no other option, I used this blessed guy's nandroid backup to restore my phone to its former glory, and it worked!
But my happiness is not long lived. Once every few days, when I do something which I am not supposed to, I get the same SystemUI error message and I have to restore it from the start, losing all the data and apps I have installed.
I am trying to find out a solution to solve this, if I find it, I will post it here. Any solutions to this I should try?
Very poor battery!

Root your phone , Calibrate the battery and use greenify to hibernate apps

The phone is pretty great, let me tell you that. But the battery life could have been much better. My friend who has bought the LG G Pro E988 has a much better battery life compared to that of mine. Kinda makes me sad
So, like the many XDA enthusiasts with a phone out here, I tried rooting my phone. The root was successful and I was happy. Then, as my bad luck would have it, I tried this app on the play store, named Pimp my ROM (which I would say is another name for Satan), which seriously messed up my device. All I tried to do was enable the soft on screen menu and back buttons (like on the nexus).
Every single second, I get an error saying SystemUI has failed. So, left with no other option, I used this blessed guy's nandroid backup to restore my phone to its former glory, and it worked!
But my happiness is not long lived. Once every few days, when I do something which I am not supposed to, I get the same SystemUI error message and I have to restore it from the start, losing all the data and apps I have installed.
I am trying to find out a solution to solve this, if I find it, I will post it here. Any solutions to this I should try?

Just flash the system partition. You won't lose any user apps or data that way and it'll solve your SystemUI error too
hi all
for some strange reason when i first got this device i was able to go to the samsung app store and
download the kindle for samsung app. It was nice, it had multi window function and I was quite happy about that.
as on my note 8 i had to hack the darn thing to work with multi-window (tutorials are lovely things aren't they )
I had to do a factory reset on the thing and ever since then i'm not able to find that app anymore.
I finally stumbled on a thread in xda where some one posted the kindle for samsung app in an other thread for the S6 i think it was. I managed to grab it from there but this one has no multi window function.
I've busted my brains for three days now, message samsung twice with absolutely zero luck. they seem to selectively become unable to comprehend anything I say beyond a point. Tried all kinds of vpn ip re-routing and still can't get onto the samsung app store to get this friggin app.
so if anyone in here has it would you please.. please please pleaaaaaseeeee im begging you be so kind as to give me a dropbox link or something so i can pick this thing up and finally use kindle with multiwindow? please?
I'm seriously drained now looking around and looking for a way around samsungs nonsense (don't even get me started on the google play store -not available in your country blah blah) uuuuuhhhh
help... i give up please help.
What you get in the Samsung store is dependent on device description in the build.prop. perhaps check if a flash of some Rom changed it.
Hmm I'm not sure what you mean. I'm new-ish to android. If you mean about rooting and changing from the official samsung rom to an other then no, I've never done that.
the phone is new. It was initially turned on and setup in the USA that may be why, I dunno. Samsung said that the kindle for samsung app is simply not part of the store which services my location. They zoned my country out (for an ebook reader? Maybe it's for the book deals but I don't care for that)
If you meant something else , what should I be looking for in this file and what should it be?
I guess it's time to find some tutorials again. (Heck of a lot of trouble for just one app though this is getting crazy for one apk)
I'm sure if I can just get the apk I'd be good.
Thanks though.
yeah, that was what i was refering to. if you flash a new rom it might be that the description of your phone changes.
the only thing i could think of would be that your sim card changed the region your phone is accounted to and so you can't download it anymore. a possible way would be to reset your phone and startup without sim, connect to wifi and install it from samsungs store and after that you can insert the sim card again and continue the setup. i understand that this is not a convenient way, so you'd better just search for the apk.
samsung is restricting access, because it comes bundles with one year service 1 free book per month.
i just tried it and could download and install it from the galaxy apps store.
Lol would you believe all while I was doing this there was no sim card in the phone?
I was getting a feel for the phone and transferring contacts playing with it all before I put the sulim on. In fact, I only put the sim card in five minutes ago for the first time.
it has to be the book deals. I don't care about that, I don't want any novels.
Could u extract the apk with "es file explorer" and post a Dropbox link?
That would be awesome , that's all I'd need I'm sure of it. That particular apk
is no where to be found anywhere online
Here is a tutorial on how to do it

Also just heard from someone who said that if I ever did flash my phone with an other rom that the app wouldn't work anymore (at least that was his experience). I'm not really into that anyways. About the only thing I'd be interested in would be getting this SM-N910H to unlock LTS like the N190C I'm guessing it's just software lock out. I saw something in an other forum thread on here with people experimenting with it. I've not finished reading to the end of that thread yet. It did seem that was really no difference in these phones though. I dunno. Guess I'd better back up right quickly then haha.
What is LTS?
Oh that's 4G I believe that's what it's called
Oh it is called lte around here. I do not understand that you need to unlock it. It should be activated by default.

oh snap you're right I must have gotten the acronym mixed up with linux lts (long term support) you're correct its LTE.. but on my model it doesn't have it included.
the SM-910C and a few others have it mine is the SM-910H that doesn't have it by default but seems it might be a software lock-out. I'd love to have it though.
i did not see mentions of software locked LTE here yet.
i found this thread which claims (at the start at least) that your phone is a 3G version of the note 4.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/sm-n910h-3g-variant-t2925648
i did not read the whole thread, but if it really is not unlockable, perhaps you can exchange the phone with someone who does not need 4g and wants to have a little better battery life. in the end LTE modes were always known to drown your battery more quickly then 3g modems, i guess it is still like that.

Hey good looking out! Thanks.!!!
the truth is that I don't really need 4g at all.. I just like to have a complete device that's all. I don't use mobile data over here because it's terribly slow no matter what "g" they claim to have over here and I found it to expensive for what I get no to mention I'd likely only use it for text or whats app. I just stick with wifi. But I'll check out that article
and if it does indeed drain battery then there really isn't a compelling reason for getting it unless I was going to sell the phone to someone who would need data.
Hows that kindle app working out for you though?:laugh::good:
