My Advent vega has no google play. Advice please

Hi
Just wondering if there is an easy option yet of adding google play to my advent vega which is running its original firmware.

Yes u can flash gapps externally, if u are rooted and on cwm... Btw i too own pantech vega but i have play installed @ stock. Are u sure u are completely on stock?.?

Cheers for the reply
Yeah i am completely at stock

Oh there are various methods to do that, by using titanium or by cwm recovery both require root.
Check out this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=931337
But that thread is old now you can flash complete google apps package /gapps from cwm recovery.. (gapps package can be downloaded according to your os)
If u need any help ping me.

More important question:
Are you sure you want to remain on stock?
If you want to upgrade your system with Google Apps, why not do the whole remake from ground up. It will be the same difficulty level as flashing Google Apps.
I was on stock for a year or two and It's no problem once you ROOT and flash Google Apps (I did everything myself), or just use MoDaCo's prebake with everything included.
But this is very very old stuff.
I have currently installed VegaBean Beta 6 and it's miles ahead of stock (don't forget to read installation instructions and partition your SD card correctly).
The only problem I have with this ROM is that it's eating my battery, but stock was also eating it.
You can also try the newest CM10.1 based ROM.
And if that just doesn't work for you, you can always flash stock firmware back (but I highly doubt you will ever do that once you go the custom ROMs way... stock rom... ewww ).

[Q] Omega Rom Updating Help On G4 i9500

Hello There,
Being new to the site I often read, follow and apply and keep quiet but i really need help on this situation please. Iv seen that Omega has released a few new roms in short succession and im due for a rom upgrade (on omega v5 still). Anyways i was just wondering i see that Omega Pro is avaliable on play store and was wonder what is the quickest way to keep up to these rom updates without loosing my data all the time?
My typical process of getting updates is to:
1. Downlaod Rom
2. Clear Cache and Data
3. Install Rom
4. Install Titanium
5. Restore From Titanium All My Apps.
But i was wondering is there methods to shortcut the restoring if im staying on the same rom? I know people say you can just flash and not clean cache and data but i want to confirm this before as to how nightlies are delivered in the cynogen architecture OTA?
Regrads in advance, i have tried searching (maybe didnt use the correct terminologies) and thought id ask a question to get a specific answer i need .
Regards
Soprono

Thanks for posting this

I also have the same doubt and registered with xda just to ask this..
Let me elaborate..
I am using currently Omega rom v7..
now the v8 is launched..
Do i have to download whole of it again? (around 1.5 GB)

I haven't had any problem with just flashing the new rom on top without clearing data or cache (I think the rom clears the cache for you)
And yes to update you need to download the entire rom again, though if you look at the change log, the changes aren't that much.
However I do want to know the change log for each Samsung update

[Q] Need help switch from lollipop to KitKat on my NOTE-3 SM-N900.

Hello XDA,
I have tried numerous ROMs/apps in last few weeks of time and very very thankful to great developers of XDA.. (THANK YOU very much).
But I am unable to control my battery drain issues (I thought my battery is old and bought a new one) but still having same issues.
1. Battery charges normally from 2% to 100% in maximum 90 minutes
2. Battery drains from 100 to 0 in 90 minutes while playing games like Hungry Shark Evolution with sound, same happens with some multiplayer games like Ninja Dash and/or subway surfers etc.. (my kid wont stop playing same on my cell)
3. Battery drains from 100 to 0 in maximum 8 to 10 hours with wifi ON.. Whatsapp and Facebook running in background, using phone hardly for 10 minutes in voice calls (incoming/outgoing)
It seems I am unable to control some advanced features in custom ROMs.
I am travelling out next week, and hence want to switch back to KitKat (latest whatever supports my mobile)
Please help me, understand which file to download (how to flash right way), how to root my mobile.
Just explain in simple instructions, learned a lot trying different roms here.. if anywhere I am stuck. I will reply back.
This is my current stuff posting screenshots.

My experience
I have flashed back to kitkat from lollipop more than 4 times by just flashing via Odin without any problems. I haven't rooted my device yet. But I tried the same steps (lolly to kk) for S4 GT-I9500, with the result of "null imei" issue. I think there is no issues with note 3 N900. I don't know how it will become after rooting. If you are on stock Lolly without root, you can simply flash KK firmware via odin.

Thanks vishnu ji.
Where do I download stock firmware from.
Sammobile or officially from Samsung. Com (never tried downloading from there)
I m just confused which version to download.

Yeah. Remember flash it normally via ODIN like in the pic attached. Maybe appears some errors but we will solve them :highfive:

This will not detect the .zip file in download mode ??
Not sure what to do ahead.. Mobile i detected in download mode properly.
Edit:
I have installed KitKat properly.. but just need to root device to be able to restore backup of all my records from titanium back pro..

It seems I am done with everything as of now..
Android version 4.4.2 and rooted as well.

still having a problem? if so, which one?

Thanks guys,
Fixed everything now.. Using greenify pro now and battery works like charm.
Planning to buy another right app, to remove unnecessary appz from this mobile. (any suggestions ? i am planning to remove system apps like hangouts, watchon, etc. which I never use but always takes up stuff) though everything is now greenified.

[GUIDE] How To Root SM-N9208

Hello Friends
I have been searching the internet for days on how to root the Note 5 N9208 dual sim and finally found something that seem stable.
DISCLAIMER: I am by no means taking credit for this root method, I am just sharing what I found because I know how hard the information can be to find on the internet. As you should already know, with flashing there is always a risk so you are always responsible for you own device
1. First you are going to want to enable OEM Unlock and USB debugging in the developer option.
2. Go to Samsung app store and get the CROM service app. (this is needed so you can flash custom roms, on some phones you won't be able to flash anything if you don't do this step)
3. Download Permissive kernel (from xiaolu) for N9208 with auto root: N9208-TW-Root (0909) .tar flash it with Odin3.10.7 (extract tar-file from zip, put it in section and flash AP)
At this point you should now have root, beyond this step will explain how to get TWRP recovery.
4. Official TWRP for Samsung Galaxy Note 5 DUOS you can found here ... (download tar-file, put it in AP section and flash with Odin3.10.7).
This information was accumulated by searching the web. My thanks goes out to all developers who help me to arrive at a root solution. If you, a developer come here and see a violation that I overlooked please inbox me and I will rectify it right away Thanks again

Thanks for the guide. Do you have more information on the kernel?

Sad to say, I didn't find much information on the web about the performance of this kernel. It just showed up as a way to gain root.
Not being about to accumulate any data on the kernel I kinda was back and forth in my mind if I should use it or not. after hours of thinking and really wanted root I decided to give it a go in a all or re-flash moment(nothing).
Turn out to be pretty good with no change in performance vs the stock kernel. Once flashed I saw superSU there installed and ready to go.
Now I was concern about the random reboots I heard about with other kernels but I have been using the phone for 3 days now and I haven't encountered any lags, no reboots, no drop of signals or calls. I have not yet installed any games on my phone so I don't know how it will be with heavy usage of that nature.
If you decide to give this a try please post any findings of abnormalities here. Thank you

No problems at all. No reboots or lags.

Nice guide for obtaining root!
I already have rooted my Note 5 using the SpaceX kernel, but as some of you know this kernel has the random reboot issue.
What would be the procedure for me to flash this kernel. Can I just flash over the current SpaceX kernel or would I have to go another route?
Appreciate the help.

Cheers for the quick help! So just Odin flash this kernel directly over my current setup...will get right to it
Flashed the kernel and rebooted...all seems well. Now further testing and hopefully no weird issues like random reboots and/or deep sleep bug.

and We still don't know where it came from ??
but it Works
I seen it on a russian site thats all I know
but it works !!

Indeed...it's all rather strange No dev, no nothing...but it does work :good:
I got 4% battery usage in some 10 hours standby and that's pretty decent in my book.
Performance seems on par with stock kernel. Now for another couple of days of further testing to see if it holds up...(no random reboots and such).

I was at about 6%at 7hrs.....but I have one drive syncing. ..but before I had 15-20%....
and no reboots and I am rooted!!!!

lol yup, there is no data at all on this kernel as far as I can search. one thing I can say for sure is that its doing very well in terms of performance. I play games, listen to music, make calls on both sims, send emails and have dual whatsapp going all day. with all that activity I manage to get 13 hours out of the phone, I plug in at 18%. to me thats good. What do you guys think?

l think we have a rooted in 9208 dual sim that doesnt reboot and works fine
curiousty leads me toWonder Where it came from and whats been done to it

Guys, will this work with the hong kong version (9200)?

Root and Upgrade from 6.0.1 to ?

I have an SM-N910P (SM-N910PVPU5DQI5)
hardware: N910P.05
OS: 6.01
Build: MMB29M.N9100V0U5DQI5
Wi-Fi only since the connection to Sprint is no more (use my Note 8 for that)
TL;DR - where can I find the ROM for this phone for 8.1 Oreo? Where can I find instructions on how to do it?
I'd like to root it (have oneclickroot) to get rid of the crap finally; then upgrade the OS. Version 8.1 would be fine, 9 is buggy on my Note 8 so not sure I want to go that far yet.
What I can't find is what I need for the phone I have to do what I want. Yes, I've done searches. Yes, I've even used my Google Fu. But most of what I find is from 2016-17 or earlier. After so much researching and reading, I am in acronym hell.
ROM = something you flash to upgrade OS (yes?)
ODIN = some special something that can do all but I can't find (makes my head thor....sorry, couldn't resist)
TWRP2 = twerp something that helps with booting but not sure what else
I have found threads that discuss it but there's a lot of broken linkages both here and elsewhere due to age of articles.
I am a root-virgin. I was going to root my Note 10.1/2013 tablet but replacing the battery did not revive it. Funeral was beautiful, though.

There is a Lineage OS Unofficial 15.1 trlte based on 8.0 Oreo. However, being an unofficial version it will have some bugs. My suggestion is to search XDA Note 4. Then scroll down to Android general development Snapdragon and go to LineageOS 16.1 unofficial version, scroll down and it will have a link to the unofficial 15.1. Then look for the download version trlte. And just for the record, I totally understand what you mean by acronym hell. I went through that also. Had to stop reading to search 5 or 6 times within 1 paragraph of reading. It takes time to understand but if you persist youll get the jang if it. As for the oneclickroot I can offer you no info as I have no experience with it. I will say, Odin is the preferred method here on XDA. There may be members that look down an app to root. I am not one of them as I began my root with the S3 years back. I was unfamiliar with Odin, drives, and PC. Rooting with an app helped to get started. As. for your search, you mentioned most from 2016 & ,17. Yep , I know. The developers for the most part have moved on to newer phones.
Oh, if you have TWRP custom recovery, I strongly recommend backing up of all your parttisions before you begin, meaning check all the boxs before you back up. Also, there is an app called Tipatch which patches TWRP adding the ability to back not only data but alll internal memory. Make sure you TWRP is set to backing up to your external SD. If your looking for something close but not Oreo. Try GRX home zip on stock deodexed rom. Good luck

Twrp (team win recovery project) is a custom recovery which replaces your stock recovery. It is very important to download the correct one for your phone. I use twrp 3.2.3-0-trlte.img.tar and flash it with Oden. Make sure to turn off auto reboot. YouTube search for more details. A custom recovery lets you flash custom roms, kernel, and various zip files. The most important thing it does is backup all the parttisions. If you make a mistake later on soft brick your phone , you backup may be the only thing that gets it working again. I recommend backing up all parttisions (check all boxes ) before you root or mod anything. That way you have a clean backup of your original firmware. Backup everything to external sd and if possible make a duplicate and save to pc, flash drive...... And yes, its a bit overwhelming at first so do some research and ask questions if needed.

Back up what's that? LOL.. When I backed up mine, then started the wipe process I accidentally wiped away my back up. LOL lucky for me I have a complete stock firmware on reserve if it is ever needed. I'm itching to try something new, but might just stick to what i have now..

How are you my friend? Always good to hear from you Mr doubledragon5. At one point, I thought I was alone in this forum.
LOL , Im glad you liked that"back up whats that?" LoL Perhaps I should have been a bit more tactful in my responses but I couldnt help myself . Just couldn't seem to convince that member the importance of making a backup before flashing and modifying everything. As for the systemimg fail in Odin, the PIT file from another firmware has partitioning that is incompatible with 5dq15.
It could be a combination of DM-verity, DRK, emmc/mmc fail and all the rest.

Ya I forgot to make my back up go to the external SD card, or at least transfer it to my computer desktop.. I love having complete control of my phone.. It actually works better than my Pixel 3a Xl... Only issue I have found so far is after upgrading my youtube vanced, I lost screen rotation, and can't figure out why.. I'm going to uninstall it just to see if some how that caused the issue.. If not then time for a complete reinstall... LOL I always visit this forum at least 3-4 times a day to see what is up.. Hopefully more people will come to realize, that the newer phones are just not worth the price, as they have become to restrictive and to expensive, plus not to mention to intrusive.

The 512gb Note 10 plus at about $1,200 is an experience device. The hardware is impressive, however, restrictive US versions have locked bootloaders.
Your YouTube Vanced app may conflict with YouTube when updating. I believe you have to uninstall YouTube updateds and disable automatic updates in Google PS. Then install YouTube Vanced . Advice to confirm this as Im not certain of the exact procedure. Just be careful not to unistall Youtube Good luck.

Youtube was originally installed, but taken out with TT back up and root, before Youtube Vanced was intalled.. So I went ahead and reinstalled the rom. Will see what happens over the next few days.. I know a fix was posted in the Rom thread, but the link is broken, as it is no longer being supported naturally.. But hope someone has a copy, for future use, rather than keep on re-installing.

Did reinstalling the rom fix the rotation issues? Can't help but notice how much you like YouTube Vanced so it must be better that YouTube. Now Im interested in YT Vanced.

What do you think of the Team BlackOut app in Dtux rom control mod center?

Yes. YouTube vanced is much better than the regular youtube.. But I can't seem to get the rooted version to work at all. I use the non route version with micro G. But you have to use a slightly older version as a newest version keeps on Forest closing.

I haven't the experience with YouTube Vanced so I can not advise. As far as the broken links in the developer threads it seem to be a common issue. Im guessing , the more time that passes the less the links will provide a download. As I notice your post on Dr. ketan rom and it links to a n910g xda thread. If you do go back to rooted stock deodexed rom before installing a custom rom then consider copying your system csc file/folder to external sd. Also, you may wish to check out the GRX home v8 touchwiz mod .zip. Its modern and customizable but can not easily be ported to the Dtux rom as some setting overlap but once familiar with the setting in GRX then you can avoid conflicting issues with the rom control app of the custom rom. GRX works really smooth and I liked it so much than when I installed Dtux the touchwiz launcher felt out dated. Anyway the last pic is an app for themeing the Play Store.

Stuck on the 5DQ15, I noticed something in looking threw a .zip custom rom with knox system app removed./deleted. The files/app inside the folders were deleted. The folder was not delete but the property permissions were changed. I found this to be consistent rom to rom developer to developer. Ill post a few pics in the next post. So now I do the same thing with a root file manager. I just copy and past the folder to external sd before I delete files/app from the system. Then back out and change the folder permissions and reboot. Its recommend to wipe dalvik/chache making changes to the system but I get lazy and just reboot.
If you still have the Dr. ketans M12 rom or another rom with system apps that have been removed then you can look threw the rom .zip and copy the touchwiz home app to the external sd . I use an older app (ZArchiver pro) to be able to copy an app from a .zip without the need to extract the entire .zip to do so. Perhaps the newer free version will do the same.
