[Q] Hello, I need help - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I need certain help. I've looked everywhere in order to find those custom ROMs for my tablet 'GoClever Tab R75', but to no avail.
I've found a thread on these forums somewhere, but the guy who replied on the already asked question was Polish and I didn't understand a single thing he wrote. Translation awful, as usual.
He did, however, provide 2 links for some "Softwares" and "Kernels", none of which I understood. I don't know what these Kernels are, provided I'm totally new to this whole rooting thing, nor do I know which "Software" to choose from all of those further links following that very link the Polish guy posted.
I just want to know if there are ANY custom roms for my tablet, because I just won't apply those Softwares or Kernels this guy posted knowing nothing about them and what they are supposed to do. Not that I'm saying that this Polish guy is unscrupulous or anything similar, I'm just saying that I don't understand any of those 'intermixed numbers and letters' in the descriptions of those links he provided.
Thanks in advance.

Can you not google translate on the page that the link takes you to??

Hello, thanks for the quick response.
Sure I can translate, but as I've told you, I'm new to all this rooting stuff and I just don't know what those kernels are of which software to choose.
I could just use someone's help, someone's who's experienced with these things to tell me whether there is a custom ROM for my tablet or not, that's all.
Can you briefly tell me what those kernels are, I'm just curious.
I'll find a way to install it but I just need to know how to find it. (the ROMs)

Anyone?

WM6 upgrade guide.. And something else

I have a hurricane and i would like to upgrade it to WM6.1..
But now i want a guide! Because the last time i just did it, i bricked it.. The SPL flash went wrong and now the hurricane is dead.. completely dead.. But unfortunally i have another one i wish to try it on but i need an exact guide..
And then i suspect my other hurricane to be some kind of prototype.. I flashed the "patched_ruu" and it went fine but after that i just got a white screen and now the device dosn't work.. I have tried to get help but as it seems it is not repairable.. So i would like to know if the device i have is a "genuine" hurricane? How can i check that?
The other hurricane i had was not branded.. Nothing was stated on the cover.. The one i want to flash now is branded "Qtek 8200" and the splash screen says "Test Only - Not for sale"
Can somebody help me here ? Iam afraid to brick this device too !
Guys damned i need some help here !
There are more than enough upgrade guides. Just look into the longer WM5 or WM6 threads and make sure that the ROM you downloaded really is intended for your device. Don't just assume and better check twice. HTC devices have confusingly many codenames and are sold under dozens of different brand names. Even some people writing guides confuse one or the other model.
Sorry, I know this is the answer you just didn't want. But reading the threads provides just the kind of information you need if you don't want to brick the second phone.

I assumed it was a rom intended for my device, cause the rom i downloaded was in the WM6 from this forum.. The guide in the thread i found isn't very desciptive.. Others have downloaded and got it to work on their device but somehow i did something wrong OR it could be because my device was a sample.
No one with a little spare time ?

[Q] Sharp SH-12C Custom Roms?

Hello XDA,
I am currently debating on buying the SH-12C for my gf. One of the major things holding me back from buying it would be lack of custom roms, root-ability, and support.
Does anyone know of any forums or websites that provide these services?
I searched XDA and Googled "SH-12C custom roms" but I had no luck.
Thanks,
lilhugo

as you maybe know there was an update for the sh-12c and we already have that firmware-files in this forum !
the only bad thing is , its coded in .enc format and i posted a way how it could probably work to unpack/decode the files >>here<<.
so if this contains a whole firmware ,maybe we would be able to make lots of modifications,custom roms and the most important thing ...ROOT!!!
but it seems there are not much people here who want to do the first step or something for their "root"
iam tryin things on and on , every day ,,,my skills are also limited ..hmm
some ppl from asian forums will solve that first i think ...

Oh wow, you're awesome! I swear I've seen you around on the forums somewhere before while I was lurking.
Anyways thanks for the info. I'll subscribe to that thread and I'll see if I can learn new things to contribute.
Thanks again,

[Q] Branded, straight to Villain? + more questions.

Hi, I would have posted this as a reply in the debranding thread but I was not allowed to since I have less than 10 posts. Someone did post a similar question there but it was not answered.
I am guessing that I do not need to debrand my rom if I am planning to install Villain 3.0, do I? All the boot animations, and whatever has been branded will be gone right? What about the CSC number? That is used to see what region I am in, for market purposes or something? How do I make that the default UK one?
I would first install CWM, then flash Villain? Do I need to root it in the process? The rom I am installing will be rooted right, so, I don't actually have to do anything?
What are the codes like umm.. XWKDD?
There seem to be so many codes like that, I don't see what they are, google didn't really explain anything... does each country have a different code?
By installing a custom rom, would that code be changed?
And, I tried to look for this as well, there aren't any other screen off animations, like the CRT one are there? I will be very happy to have the CRT one, but, I'm just curious.
Thank you very much!
-edit. i don't see why this thread was tagged as 'epic fail', and 'refusal to search', i don't see how i failed something or won something, what is the main goal to fail/win? if the objective was me finding answers, then i would not say i failed, especially when i sought out help from the forum, thus would it not be you who failed me (an not really, as you guys have no duty to answer questions) and how is anything 'epic' about this? what is the difference between tagging this thread as 'fail', and tagging it as 'epic fail'? would 'fail' simply mean that i made a spelling mistake or something? honestly you guys... aha
and about the searching, i did search, i did not ever say that i refused to search, thus you cannot say i did refuse to search, as how do you know what i did or did not do? i did search just obviously i could not find specific answers, if you have something wrong with telling me the answer when you know it, then you could give me a clue or something? if you know where in a thread i will find an answer then sure, but it is difficult when no search results seem useful, and no offence but i do not want to read 400 pages of posts about something. but yeah, ok, thanks.
i am happy that i got one reply at least.
Damn... so many questions ... xeu csc is for uk... most roms comes with multicsc so you can choose (uk is default)
If you install CWM you wil gain root access
You have to root if you wanna use Villain
The letters arent that important... just choose the newest rom
Ok and so, there are different ways of rooting right?
So, if I install CWM via Odin, and then Villain, I am set to go?
I read that some kernels come with CWM, like this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
So it is possible to have two clockworkmod recoveries at the same time? Would this be bad?
I thought the kernel and the recovery were separate. Maybe I am misunderstanding something.
Due to the fact that I will use Villain, I would be on ninphetamine or something, it seems this has CWM in it, so, I am worried about having CWM on my system twice.
Can anyone clear this up?

[Q] root android

I am triing in rooting few device (lenovo ideatab a1000F, smasung packet neo, vodafone ideos u8150-d. But now, I am getting crazy. I can't find a correct valid guide. I tried kingo, unlock root. IN other site I found seems valid guide, but no link to the rom!
Can someone help me?
I first had a similar impression. If you're not used to the whole android world, it first looks quite confusing. Unclear were to find information, and many are outdated. Discussions and information are mixed in the forums, and most files are released on one-click-hosters.
In the end I found projects like CyanogenMod and OmniRom helpful. Their Wikis are much more clear than the forums to me. Though, once you read some threads on xda, you learn how to extract the important information from there as well.
So don't give up, try to find your way and don't be scared to try things out even if you're not too sure whether it's the right way
thanks

Huawei P9 Lite (Android 7) & General questions

Hi! First of all... Sorry for bad English! I am German and was smoking to much in school.
I hope you understand what I mean in this post. So lets begin...
I don`t want to call anything bad here on this forum, or criticize anyone of you. I am very grateful for the many work and time that most of you spend for all of this. But I am a newbie and must write something, that myself and many other newbies are thinking, but not writing, about many threads. As an example,
the Thread "{Android 7 - EMUI 5.0} VNS-L31/L21/L11/L23 C432B329 {FULL/LEAK} [28-11-16]", linked here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...t/android-7-emui-5-0-vns-l31-l21-l23-t3513816
I read about this Android 7 firmware and was very interested to flash it. But as a newbie, I wanted to collect as much information as possible about this firmware (general Informations, How to flash, Problems, what to do if it fails, ...). Because I think that this forum is the best at web, I searched for these informations here and began to read everything I could find about it. But on most threads, like my example thread, I have a problem, because I did not understand, if its up to date or not. And if the problems, other users write about are still there, or if they were fixed allready. There are to many posts, where users write about different problems. So it often makes me confused, because I am not sure if answers are for problem user1 posted or for problem that was posted by another user. If its quoted, ok. But its still very difficult to understand what is up-to-date and if problem would be fixed now or not. Sometimes I read all of these posts and at the end I understand nothing anymore, because everyone is writing about different problems. So it feels like chaos for me. Then it happened that sometimes users say that there are no problems anymore, and at next page someone writes that there is still problem. Some users post links to websites, threads or files and next user posts links to websites and files too. And then I am thinking about, if they are writing about same problem, if I need all of these stuff or not, what I must flash first, if problems exist if I flash linked file from user1 or if it might be fixed at linked file from user2, .... Then I asked myself which one of this is the newest and up-to-date and if this was the one I get shown at started post on first page (I mean If it was updated by thread starter or if someone posted a newer version at example page 23 of all replies)? How I know if these informations on page 1 are still up to date? At moment I did not understand if there are still problems, or not. And which of these files to flash, to fix problems. After many days I was reading now, I am still not sure if I could flash this firmware on my Huawei P9 Lite (VNS-L31 C432 B161) without getting problems, I read about. As an example, problems like these:
-Is camera working
-keyboard working
-display showing all ok
-mobile data working
-and others
And I don`t know if I must download and flash the files, posted on first page, to become most newest / most stable version, or if I might must read all pages of this thread, to find something posted, thats newer than information on first page? All together... my final question is: Are these informations and files that were posted on first page, all I need and up-to-date for flashing this firmware?
My greatest wish would be a general thread, where I could find all informations and files categorized in different threads, so that newbies like me could understand it better. As example, the thread "Huawei P9 Lite Firmware Compilations by ErvinSoliven", that were opened today by ErvinSoliven and linked here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...huawei-p9-lite-firmware-compilations-t3517124
I opened it and it shows me all the information (hope soon actually ) I was looking for, without reading all of the replys on many pages. This I think is a very good example thread on how to categorize different themes. And I think it would reduce questions, that were allready asked by other users for 5 or 6 times before. So If someone were willing to invest so much time for things like that, I would be very happy and grateful. Who wants to be that hero?
But at first, it would be the most important thing for me, if someone could post an up-to-date information thread about
flashing Android 7 on P9 Lite (VNS-L31 C432), inclusive
-links to needed files (Recoverys, Images, Fixes for camera..., and how to do it)
-informations what is fixed or still not working
-what to do if I get problems during it
It would really really help me, because reading so much posts, in a language that I did not understand very good, is very hard for me and makes me not sure, if I am doing all of this right or if I might did understand something wrong or choose wrong file, ...
I hope you all understand these things, I want to tell you, in this post here. If not, sorry again for this bad English! I tried my best.
At the end of this post, I want to say something again...
"Thanks" to all the people that have so much patience, spending many time and many work, for this great forum and teaching newbies like me! You are the best! Many thanks!!!
Greetings, 77777772
